Xuancheng and Wei Fufeng were depressed. He was in the inn and was directly appointed by Tian Feng as the Left Army General of the Navy Governor's Office. He was straightforward and didn't have to leave.

The so-called military orders cannot be violated, Wei Fufeng could only go to the prefecture and met Cheng Jin first.

When Cheng Jin saw him, he smiled and said, "General Chu, congratulations, I have just arrived and become a fourth-rank military officer."

Wei Fufeng was speechless and smiled bitterly: "I want to go back to the southern Sichuan army."

Cheng Jin smiled and said, "Duke Tian values ​​General Chu. General in the Southern Sichuan Army is not an important figure. He has a bright future. If necessary in the future, General Chu will be of great use. He will make great contributions when he is sent to the Southern Sichuan Army or Xuanwu Army."

Wei Fufeng's heart moved and asked, "Mr. Tian has the intention to use me, and he will serve as an envoy to Xuanwu Army?"

Cheng Jin nodded and said, "General Chu is the most suitable for his mission to Xuanwu Army."

Wei Fufeng thought: "Go to Xuanwu Army to learn about it? It's inappropriate. I am a prince and I can't go deep into the dangerous spy on military information. I should return to the southern Sichuan Army safely."

But in the near future, it is impossible to return to the territory.

Wei Fufeng had no choice but to ask, "Mr. Cheng, I don't know where to take office?"

Cheng Jin replied: "The navy is divided into left and right armies, the right armies is the Xuanzhou navy, and the left armies is the former E Yue army. Mr. Tian recruited talents and established the navy governor's office for Du Hong."

Wei Fufeng nodded, and Cheng Jin said again: "Of course, Duke Tian cannot easily trust Du Hong. The reorganized Xuanzhou naval army only obeyed the navy commander in name, but in fact, the Right Army general obeyed the orders of Duke Tian independently."

Wei Fufeng said: "So, Du Hong is equivalent to serving as the general of the Left Army. If I go to work, wouldn't it be a sandwich and do nothing?"

Cheng Jin said: "It is indeed the same as the vacancies. Duke Tian is not good at a military officer to serve as the Left Army. General Chu may not extort Du Hong's favor for Du Hong's recommendation. Du Hong will slowly draw on him."

Wei Fufeng said helplessly: "Du Hong will never allow me to intervene in the military power of the Zuo Army, I can only make arrangements."

Cheng Jin said: "It is enough to be able to serve. After a long time, the morale of the army belongs to Duke Tian. As a general in charge, General Chu naturally intervened in military power."

Wei Fufeng deliberately frowned without saying a word.

Cheng Jin saw it and said, "General Chu, who serves as the Left Army General, has another purpose. Perhaps General Chu will go to Shezhou."

Wei Fufeng was surprised and asked, "Why are you going to Shezhou?"

Cheng Jin said: "Shezhou has only been in charge for a few years, and its internal and external troubles are serious. As the Xuanshe Observation Envoy, Tian Gong has the power to control the military of Shezhou and Chizhou, but also has the responsibility for support."

Wei Fufeng said: "Mr. Tian means that I will lead my army to support Shezhou."

Cheng Jin nodded and said, "The officials are just revealing how uncertain the future will be, but one thing is that General Chu can only get the approval of the Prince of Huainan to serve as the governor of the Left Army."

Wei Fufeng was stunned and asked, "If you still need the permission of the Prince of Huainan to serve in Xuanzhou?"

Cheng Jin nodded and said, "The prince of Huainan is the highest. The position in Xuanzhou will be recommended by Duke Tian first, and the prince will be approved before the appointment will be appointed. According to convention, the recommended force of Duke Tian will be approved. General Chu will be considered a member of the E Yue Army."

Wei Fufeng suddenly realized that he knew that Yang Xingmi had accepted many foreign military forces, the most famous ones were the Hedong cavalry and the Jiedushi who defected to him could all give him a favorable position.

For example, Zhu Jin, the former governor of the Tianping Army, is now the deputy envoy of the Huainan Jiedu, commanding the cavalry of the Huainan Army.

He heard Cheng Jin again: "As long as General Chu is recognized by the prince, Duke Tian can rely on General Chu in a legitimate manner, grant temporary military positions, and lead troops to Shezhou."

Wei Fufeng asked in confusion: "Mr. Tian should have many subordinates who are good at fighting. Why did he use me to go to Shezhou?"

Cheng Jin smiled and said, "General Chu is confused. He was reluctant to serve as a general of the Left Army before. This is an opportunity to give General Chu a meritorious service and gain real power."

Wei Fufeng looked at Cheng Jin and questioned: "Really?"

Cheng Jin was embarrassed and had to say: "Tao Ya, the governor of Shezhou, is a confidant of the prince. Duke Tian cannot influence Shezhou and needs to intervene in the operation."

Wei Fufeng nodded and thoughtfully. If he could go to Shezhou, it would be a way to get out and return. Muzhou, south of Shezhou, stationed in Muzhou, five thousand southern Sichuan troops and commanded Lin Quan.

Compared with the return route of the waterway in the north, there are many risks along the way. Going to Muzhou by land, with its own military protection, you can go back to Fuzhou.

Cheng Jin looked at Wei Fufeng.

Wei Fufeng came back to his senses and said, "I am willing to serve Mr. Tian, ​​but I just requested that I have no achievements in five years, which means I am mediocre. Please let me go back to the southern Sichuan army to live."

Cheng Jin smiled and said, "Okay, the official confessed to Mr. Tian, ​​I will send General Chu to his post first."

"I'm working hard." Wei Fufeng bowed and thanked.

Taking a bus to the wharf outside the city, Cheng Jin explained the current situation of the navy. The Xuanzhou navy was generally divided into three parts, the left and right naval forces of Xuanzhou and the Chizhou naval forces.

The Chizhou Navy was under the jurisdiction of the Chizhou Governor and under the control of Tian Feng. It was responsible for the river waters from Chizhou to Dangtu, defending against enemy attacks in the upper reaches of the river, and also guarding against Feng Hongju, who occupied Jiangning.

Wei Fufeng asked Feng Hongliu and Cheng Jin chatted about Feng Hongliu.

Feng Hongjue was once a general of Xuzhou. When he was suspicious of the Xuzhou governor Shi Pu, he led his subordinates to flee from Xuzhou, crossed the river south and occupied Suzhou. Zhang Xiong called himself the governor of Suzhou.

Later, with the prosperity of Suzhou, Zhang Xiong expanded his army to 50,000 and more than a thousand warships, and was known as the Tiancheng Army.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. After Zhou Bao, the governor of the Zhejiang vassal state, integrated the forces of Zhejiang, the troops pointed to Suzhou, and Zhang Xiong was defeated and fled.

At that time, Gao Pian, the governor of Huainan Dao, was in a mess in his later years and was rebelled and imprisoned by his subordinates, which triggered local forces from all over the country to send troops to Yangzhou to "respond to the king", among which Yang Xingmi participated in the competition.

The defeated Zhang Xiong took advantage of the situation to seize the Jiangning area and gained the territory and took root again.

In 893, Zhang Xiong died of illness, Feng Hongjue took over and occupied Jiangning and watched the battle in all directions.

Yang Xingmi was so miserable that she was chased by Sun Ru. Yang Xingmi fled from Huainan Road to the south of the Yangtze River, which also attracted the disaster.

Sun Ru killed bloody all the way, causing sorrow to be everywhere in the south of the river, and the population was either killed or fled.

Some of them took refuge in Jiangning, some migrated to eastern Zhejiang and Hangzhou, and some migrated to the upper reaches of the river, and settled in Jiangxi, Jingnan and Bashu.

Feng Hongru hid in Jiangning and did not come out, and did not dare to provoke Sun Ru. In the end, Yang Xingmi came to operate and defeated Sun Ru.

Feng Hongliu was weak and chose to join Yang Xingmi. Yang Xingmi fought hard for many years and was eager to take over Huainan Road, so he accepted Feng Hongliu's joining.

However, Feng Hongju's independent existence seemed to be a nail in the Huainan Dao territory.

Jiangning has a geographical location between Yangzhou and Xuanzhou. Feng Hongjue has a strong naval army and is not too afraid of Xuanzhou and Yangzhou.

Therefore, Tian Fu in Xuanzhou was under great pressure and was attacked from three sides. Zhong Chuan of the South Army on the west side and Feng Hongru, Jiangning on the east side. Both have strong naval forces. If they jointly attack Xuanzhou, Tian Fu will be defeated.

Therefore, Yang Xingmi allowed Tian Lin to sit on the ground and gave the military power to control Chizhou and Shezhou.

As Tian Feng became independent, his ambitions also expanded. He did not want to rebel against Yang Xingmi, but he hoped that Yang Xingmi would consider him a brother, each of them to start a family, and watch over each other's help.

Therefore, Tian Feng was very happy to get Du Hong's army.

In the Jiangnan area in the lower reaches of the river, the navy is more important than the army. The waterways are convenient for transportation, which allows Feng Hongduo, Jiangning, and the soldiers are quick to attack Xuancheng.

On the other hand, the southern Sichuan Army occupied Ezhou, which made Tian Feng pay more attention to the Southern Sichuan Army. The navy of the Southern Sichuan Army was far more important than the Xuanwu Army.

In the long run, Tian Feng had a prediction that he had a close confrontation with Yang Xing, so he secretly accepted Li Zhen's envoy, but it was just a long-term filing.

Feng Hongduo is immortal, and Yang Xingmi cannot turn against Tian Feng.

When the car stopped, Wei Fufeng reminded: "Mr. Cheng, I am from the Southern Sichuan Army. Don't let Du Hong know about it, otherwise Du Hong will definitely kill me."

Cheng Jin was stunned and nodded, "Don't worry, General Chu, your message in the future will be the gentry who came to join us, and it will be before Du Hong."

Wei Fufeng nodded with confidence. The two got out of the car and saw endless ships parked on the river bank, including four huge tower ships, which were particularly eye-catching.

Cheng Jin pointed to the huge tower ship and said, "I have to say that the ships of the Eyue Army are much better than those of Xuanzhou ships. Xuanzhou has experienced wars and is in chaos and has been in chaos. Ezhou is peaceful for many years."

Wei Fufeng said casually: "Maybe Du Hong thought of running away and building a navy army at all costs."

Cheng Jin was stunned, then smiled and nodded, "It's reasonable that the navy is the most expensive. It's not as good as the army. You can expand the army by firing a spear."

At this time, dozens of armored military forces came over, and after investigation, they led a giant ship. After reporting, the two were invited to the giant ship.

Upon climbing to the spacious deck and looking at the atmospheric eaves, Wei Fufeng sighed that he was similar to a water palace.

Eight soldiers were arranged on the deck, and the atmosphere was so serious that the generals who were inviting to ask for help.

Wei Fufeng asked Cheng Jin to go first, and he followed and entered the pavilion together.

The pavilion is similar to the halls of officials' families, with exquisitely arranged beds, many carved chairs, coffee tables, wooden incense burners, eight hanging palace lanterns, and four beautiful women standing.

On the couch, a middle-aged man with a purple robe, with short beards, a heroic face, and a calm smile, as if he was a noble man.

Cheng Jin was stunned for a moment. Du Hong in his eyes was much different than the last time he saw him.

Last time, Du Hong had a messy head and bloodshot eyes, and was wearing a used chain mail that was not old, describing it as sloppy.

"The officers are visiting the navy commander." Cheng Jin greeted him respectfully, and Wei Fufeng treated him silently.

"Haha, Lord Cheng is here." Du Hong responded cheerfully and stepped closer.

Cheng Jin said respectfully: "Governor, the subordinate is ordered to send General Chu Yu to serve as the Left Army General."

Du Hong was stunned and looked at Wei Fufeng.

Wei Fufeng said respectfully: "Chu Yu, please pay homage to the governor."

"Chu Yu? Oh, it's you." Du Hong thought.

Wei Fufeng said respectfully: "Governor, Chu Yu happened to be in Jiangzhou. For a sudden move, please ask the Governor Hai Han."

Du Hong nodded and said, "Are you a general of the Xuanzhou naval army?"

"I am not a subordinate, I have never been involved in the navy." Wei Fufeng replied respectfully.

"If you don't learn about the navy, Mr. Tian should serve as a general of the navy." Du Hong declined politely.
