Luo Zhaoyun led a strong general to defeat the main force of the Jianghuai army, captured the Huainan hero Du Fuwei, and shocked the three armies, once again making His Majesty's influence in the army reach an unprecedented height.

Sure enough, His Majesty personally led the troops to the expedition and drove the crusade, and there was no unsuccessful one.

Even young generals such as Duan Zhixuan and Zhou Zhongyin felt that they were honored to be able to follow His Majesty in person, and their faces were related, which could be used as a strong stroke in qualifications.

"Please move your majesty to the rear of the Chinese army, although the battlefield here is stable, but there are many temporary defectors lurking, and it is likely to attack suddenly, be careful." Du Ruhui brought people over and asked His Majesty to temporarily withdraw from the battlefield, let the soldiers clean up the dead bodies, take prisoners, etc.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded, there was nothing for him to do here, he should go back to camp and wait for the night to rest.

"Escort all the generals of Du Fuwei, Wenren Sui'an, and the Jianghuai Army to them, and separate them into separate custodys, and I will personally interrogate them."

"Yes." Gradually clench your fists and obey the king's orders.

Luo Zhaoyun glanced at Qingshuang, then rode his horse away from the battlefield, and the feather forest guards of the pro-guard army escorted away.

Half an hour later, Xu Shiji had already led his soldiers and horses to break through the interception and resistance of the Jianghuai army, rushed over, and broke the enemy army at the tail, but found that the battle had ended here.

"Where is Your Majesty?"

"General Xu, Your Majesty has already gone to the Chinese army camp."

Xu Shiji asked his entourage to organize the army here, and he led his guards to the camp of the Chinese army to meet His Majesty.

This Chinese army camp was set up temporarily, next to the foot of the mountain, only three miles away from the battlefield, the camp tent has been initially erected, and the three layers inside and the outer three layers are the Yulin Guards to protect His Majesty's safety.

After Xu Shiji revealed his identity, he entered the camp and waited outside His Majesty's tent to be summoned.

After the guards passed the message, Luo Zhaoyun announced that he had entered the account and narrated.

"Minister Xu Shiji, knock to see Your Majesty." Xu Shiji entered the big tent and knelt on the ground to salute the monarch.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled faintly and said with a pleasant face: "General Xu, get up without being polite!" ”

Xu Shiji continued, "The minister has a matter and wants to ask His Majesty for guilt."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Xu Shiji was a little embarrassed and said: "The minister is clothed, the grass is the coward, he joined the Wagangzhai, he was suspicious of Li Mi, and he was in a dilemma, it was His Majesty who recruited him, promoted him exceptionally, and entrusted him with an important task. But this time the southern expedition to Jianghuai, but repeatedly frustrated, did not restrain the vanguard general Zhang Jun, so that tens of thousands of people were ambushed, and retreated Zhong Licheng, was cut off the back road of grain and grass, if not for His Majesty Xingchi to help, this 100,000 army, I am afraid that there are many auspicious and less, as the commander of the southern expedition, the minister has an unshirkable responsibility, so he asked His Majesty for guilt. ”

Luo Zhaoyun looked at Xu Shiji's expression, but he was sincerely pleading, without a trace of fake acting, and nodded: "This is your first time being handsome, it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes, and Zhang Jun is also greedy for merit, violating military orders, and you have little responsibility." As for the Jianghuai army cutting off the grain route and eliminating your army's water division, it is also because the temporary water division formed in the north cannot compete with the Jianghuai water division, although the front line is lost, as the commander, although you are responsible, however, many objective factors are placed here, and it is not completely your fault, I can understand it. ”

"But understanding is understanding, after all, you still have to be held accountable, you will be fined for one year, the official will be demoted to a rank, the commander of the Southern Expeditionary Army will be withdrawn, demoted to the vanguard marshal, lead 80,000 troops, attack Liyang County, eliminate the remnants of the Jianghuai Army there, clear up the bandits in the border between Jiangdu County and Liyang County, and clean up the land north of the Jiangbei Army, and make meritorious contributions!"

Xu Shiji raised his head, a little grateful, although he was reduced in salary and demoted, but there was no heavy punishment, and there was His Majesty's royal driving in person, so the position of the marshal of the Southern Expedition would naturally be withdrawn, he became the marshal of the vanguard army, in fact, he still led his own soldiers and horses, but he just changed his name, and also avoided the name of the collision saint.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, you will do your best this time to complete the task!"

"Good! This time you can be flat! Luo Zhaoyun smiled, in fact, he still trusts Xu Shiji very much, compared to the history books of the Tang Dynasty, but he has a strong stroke in Xu Shiji's military field.

In the big tent, only Du Ruhui, Xiao Yu and other good ministers and strategists, just now a few people were discussing the next marching route.

Xiao Yu said at this time: "Your Majesty, when will we continue to pursue the victory, cross the river to fight, and take the land south of the Yangtze River?" Or use Du Fuwei to recruit the remnants of Danyang County? ”

Luo Zhaoyun shook his head and said: "The time is not ripe, although this Du Fuwei was captured by us, but Danyang County in Jiangdong is the territory of Fu Gong Tuo, although nominally Fu Gong Tuo is Du Fu Wei's deputy and subordinate, but in the past two years, the two of them have divided the river and ruled, each running their own territory, and there is suspicion and estrangement between each other, even if we catch Du Fu Wei to threaten it, in fact, it is useless for Fu Gong Tuo of Danyang County, they may not care about Du Fu Wei's life or death, and they will not listen to his words. ”

"Isn't Duvowe useless?" Xiao Yu couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Xu Shiji, Du Ruhui and others also thought the same, and felt that it was not very useful for Du Fuwei to stay, and the only way to do this was to storm Danyang County and cross the river to fight.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled and said: "It's not all useless, you can send it to Jiangnan to lobby Fugongtuo, even if it doesn't have a big effect, it can also disintegrate the fighting spirit of Danyang County, they have different internal views, they will be divided into two factions, the main battle and the main peace, this difference exists, it will reduce the resistance of our army to cross the river." ”

When Xu Shiji heard this, a trace of admiration suddenly surged in his heart, and he secretly thought that His Majesty's control of the strategy and people's hearts was really powerful!
