On that day, 100,000 southern Sichuan troops were outside the city.

Han Erlang gave Huang Meng a military order.

Huang Meng saw it in disbelief and had to obey the troops and leave Hongzhou.

The Southern Sichuan Army took over Hongzhou.

As a result, Lu Chong rebelled and internal fighting, and Liu Wei and his son died.

The reinforcements of Xinzhou were forced to retreat to Xinzhou due to the great power of the Sichuan army.

Han Erlang retreated with Huang Meng. On the way, he learned that Wang Jin was in the army.

When Han Erlang found out that Wang Jin was still a captive, he cursed when he saw him, "You are a stick who cares about your favor."

Wang Jin said angrily: "You thief, you kill Lord Lu Chong with two sides."

Han Erlang sighed: "I really can't keep you."

Han Erlang left and ordered all the people who had guarded Wei Fufeng.

Han Erlang didn't want to be famous in the future and was afraid of revenge.

On the way, Huang Meng asked General Chu for letters that he could understand collusion with the Southern Sichuan Army, but he could not agree with the transfer of Hongzhou.

Wei Fufeng replied: "Save snacks, Hongzhou is mine. Let's talk about it later. I will live up to your merits in seizing Hongzhou."

Huang Meng was stunned when he read the reply letter, smiling bitterly and unrelieved his heart, so he stayed at Xinzhou to lead the army.

......

Five days after the Southern Sichuan Army took over Hongzhou, it sent 50,000 troops to attack Jiangzhou.

In Ezhou, the upper reaches of the river, 20,000 naval troops were dispatched to attack Jiangzhou.

Jiangzhou Governor Zhong Kuangfan asked someone to submit, but was rejected.

Seventy thousand southern Sichuan troops attacked Jiangzhou.

Zhong Kuangfan guarded Xunyang City and sent people to ask for help from the Huainan Army.

Three days after the southern Sichuan army besieged Xunyang City, some of the Jiangzhou soldiers in the city rebelled, seized the Xicheng Gate and put them in the southern Sichuan army.

Zhong Kuangfan, with his family and more than a thousand subordinates, fled to the north bank of the river in a hurry and ran to Yangzhou.

Jiang Han, a rebel general in Jiangzhou, originally a general in Hongzhou, received a letter from Zhong Youdie, but did not agree to surrender to the southern Sichuan Army.

As the southern Sichuan army occupied Hongzhou, 70,000 troops attacked Jiangzhou and besieged the city.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Han rebelled by the fence-bearer.

Jiang Han obtained excellent contributions through Zhong Youdie's letters.

Subsequently, Raozhou Governor Tang Bao surrendered to the southern Sichuan Army.

......

Soon, most of the Zuo family living in Badong Prefecture returned to their hometown of Hongzhou.

Zuo Xiaoqing was appointed as the prince of Lushan and returned to Hongzhou to supervise military and political affairs.

Zuo Ling, who served as the chief of Meizhou in Shu, was promoted to the governor of Hongzhou and returned to his hometown with glory.

Zuo Ling once helped Tian Wen'er, prompting Zhong Kuangshi to send troops to Ezhou, and voluntarily requested Bashu to serve as county magistrate, and later promoted to the position of chief of Meizhou.

Zuo returned to Hongzhou, Zuo Ling served as the governor of Hongzhou and Zuo Xiaoqing's supervisor of Lushan County.

Since then, the Zuo family of Hongzhou has become a prosperous family, and has attached great importance to scholars throughout the ages to manage their families, be kind and generous, especially to help poor scholars.

A hundred years later, the Zuo family of Yuzhang became famous all over the world and became the most scholarly official family in the south.

.....

The military information of the fall of Jiangxi was spread to Yangzhou. In addition to the shock and worries of the top leaders, the middle and lower classes responded mediocrely.

Jiangxi is far away from Yangzhou people and has no interest in it.

Xu Wen was unlucky, and Zhang Hao pointed at his nose in public and scolded: "It's all you. It's better to get it back and dismantle it if you handed it to Liu Wei."

Xu Wen was so depressed that he almost ran away. His prestige seriously affected his prestige in front of everyone, and he turned around and left with a pressure.

Zhang Hao looked at Xu Wen's back and sneered. He deliberately attacked Xu Wen's prestige. He was also an experienced old man who noticed that Xu Wen was insidious.

Xu Wen returned home and was furious, gritting his teeth and venting: "A man, if you hadn't been forced to kill the king, how could you allow you to be rampant?" Xu Wen closed his eyes and calmly relieved his discomfort. A small impatience would cause trouble.

Yan Keqiu came and entered the study and saw Xu Wen looking down at a broken plot.

Xu Wen turned his head and smiled: "You can ask for it."

Yan Keqiu approached and bowed, "Xu Gongxiu's angry."

Xu Wen said casually: "It's just a husband. If I get angry, wouldn't it be a common man?"

Yan Keqiu said: "Zhang Hao humiliated Mr. Xu in a broken face, and his subordinates felt that he might have noticed that he was being used."

Xu Wen nodded.

Yan Keqiu said again: "I suggest taking the initiative."

Xu Wen shook his head and said, "Liu Wei's fate cannot be repeated."

Yan Keqiu said, "If you drag on it, I'm afraid Zhang Hao will take the initiative."

Xu Wen nodded and sighed: "Looking at this game of chess, I am in a dilemma. If I kill Zhang Hao and confirm the internal struggle, the departing from Yangzhou will lead to the end of the Huainan army."

Yan Keqiu is silent.

After a moment, Xu Wen said, "Why did Chu Yu station troops in Xinzhou?"

Yan Keqiu was surprised and replied: "Normal, you must go to Xinzhou to pass through Raozhou, but you can pass through the edge of Raozhou and intersperse Xinzhou.

Or you can go to Xuanzhou to Shezhou and connect to Xinzhou through Wuyuan County. It is just that although the road is close, the mountains are not suitable for military transportation."

Xu Wen said: "I asked why I stationed troops in Xinzhou. Although there was no news of Raozhou, there was a high probability that Raozhou would be in danger. Chu Yu should station troops in Raozhou."

Yan Kexue replied: "The subordinates are stupid."

Xu Wen whispered: "Maybe it is intended that the Wusheng Army be supported by Xinzhou, and the Wusheng Army can also be supported by Xinzhou garrison."

Yan Keqiu nodded and said, "Chu Yu is likely to collude with Gu Quanwu and serve as a supporter for the outside world."

Xu Wen whispered: "As long as Chu Yu does not collude with the Southern Sichuan Army, we will be the most important thing for the time being, eliminate internal troubles, and integrate Huainan Road."

Yan Keqiu nodded, Chu Yu colluded with the Southern Sichuan Army, and Yangzhou must not wait for the Southern Sichuan Army to invade.

We can only take the initiative and defeat each one, and seize Xuanzhou, Jiangning in the death row.

Xu Wen whispered: "We cannot appear weak. Li Chengnai personally led 20,000 Eastern Wu troops to set up Chizhou to prevent the southern Sichuan army from becoming more and more aggressive."

Yan Keqiu nodded, and understood that Xu Wen's one stone killed two birds with one stone, and he led most of the Eastern Wu army. The ten thousand remaining Eastern Wu army will be subject to Xu Zhixun's control for the time being.

Li Chengnai was influenced by his father Li Shenfu and was psychologically unwilling to rebel against Yang Wo.

Xu Wen mobilized the Eastern Wu army to Yangzhou to carry out a mutiny, but Li Chengnai may have resisted and refused.

Xu Wen reached out and picked up a chess piece and said, "It's useless to stay in Sizhou. Do you think he's going to come back to Yangzhou? Is it appropriate?"

Yan Kexue replied: "When the third young master comes back to Yangzhou, Zhang Hao will not allow him to serve in a critical position, but will instead cause him to be more vigilant about Mr. Xu."

Xu Wen whispered: "The general magistrate of the Eastern Wu Army who was transferred to serve as the commander of the army. Xu Zhigao was capable and assisted Xu Zhixun to check for shortcomings and make up for leaks."

Yan Keqiu understood that Xu Zhixun's ability to do things could not satisfy Xu Gong.

"The official document dispatch of subordinates." Yan Keqiu said.

Xu Zhigao is not a conspicuous and important person, just be transferred quietly.

If an important person or official position is involved, Yan Kexue must be approved by Zhang Hao, and he will be dismissed from office or even lose his life.

Xu Wen whispered: "After a while, I got a fake king's order, and the order of the Northern Army to support the king without any traces, and it fell directly into Zhang Hao's hands."

Yan Keqiu nodded and said, "I understand, please do it with caution."

Xu Wen whispered: "Sir, work hard, go back and rest."

......

Soon, Xu Zhigao quietly returned to Yangzhou, returned to Xu Wen's house, and met his adoptive mother Li.

Li was so happy that he asked about his well-being, and ordered his servants to serve and put on clean robes.

When Xu Wen returned home, Xu Zhigao respectfully knelt down and greeted him.

Xu Wen ordered to get up and sit down and look at his adopted son who had been away for several years.

Xu Zhigao became a heroic young man, with a slightly graceful official demeanor, and his eyebrows were down and his eyes were pleasing, and he could not hide his calm and sophistication.

Xu Wen nodded and said, "You are willing to come back and be pleased with your father."

Xu Zhigao said: "My son is just a void official in the north. Although he lives a comfortable life, he dare not forget his parents' grace and is willing to come back and obey his father's work."

Xu Wen nodded and said, "I am eager to run Runzhou. When you go to Runzhou, you must not only assist in the training, check for shortcomings and fill in the gaps, but also supervise the Eastern Wu army and grasp the military spirit and trends."

Xu Zhigao nodded and said, "My son must do his best."
