Chapter 114: The Strategy of Dividing Troops

In fact, Zhang Xuan was not worried that Luo Yulong would not agree.

Because of Zhang Xuan's plan, there are obvious benefits for Luo Yulong.

This benefit is nothing else, it is the territory.

The richest prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River are actually Suzhou, Hangzhou, Changzhou, and some places along the coast, and other prefectures and counties are also rich compared to the north, but compared to these places, they are far from enough.

In particular, Suzhou can be said to be the fashion center of the Ming Dynasty, the cultural center, once there is any fashion in Suzhou, it will immediately spread all over the world, known as Suzhou.

Such a prefecture and county are comparable to a province in the middle of nowhere.

From Changzhou to Jinhua, you must pass through Huzhou, Hangzhou, Yanzhou to Jinhua, of which Hangzhou is the west side of Hangzhou, those places are mountainous, and Yanzhou Jinhua area, is also more mountains and less plains, naturally it is far less than Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Every general leads his troops to fight and fight a city, even if it is not allowed to loot, but the local gentry will sensibly borrow a batch of silver to work in the army.

Of course, every general has a share of this silver.

Zhang Xuan mixed the silver with his own private treasury. Almost all of it was spent on the army. In fact, most of his living expenses are Luo Yujiao's private money.

It's a bit like a little white face.

It's not that Zhang Xuan doesn't like to enjoy, but the enjoyment of this era, not into Zhang Xuan's ears and eyes, among the dogs and horses, only color can enter Zhang Xuan's eyes, however, with Luo Yujiao, Zhang Xuan can't be too presumptuous, even so, there is Dong Xiaowan.

What's more, Zhang Xuan also knows what a cruel era this era is, without enough strength, nothing can be protected.

But the other generals didn't think so.

Between life and death struggles, many people indulge themselves.

I don't know if my life will be tomorrow, and many people are willing to numb themselves with wine. Even Luo Rucai is the same, and many of these generals are dirt buns, they have never seen anything, and when they saw the prosperity of Jiangnan, they immediately became extravagant.

There are more places where silver is needed.

Luo Yulong is even more so, he doesn't want silver for the sake of lust, but as the future prince, buying people's hearts and establishing a team, that doesn't need silver, and there are some unknown expenses, the silver is only too little, not too much.

Zhang Xuan gave up this favor, but it was a big favor.

Just look at it, Zhang Xuan has collected as many as one million taels in Yangzhou Mansion, as long as Luo Yulong scrapes the ground carefully, it will not be a problem to get millions of taels wherever he passes.

You must know that this is the most wealth-intensive place in the Ming Dynasty, and even on the entire earth at that time.

Now, even if it's not for the money, there are countless hands and feet that can be done in the process of laying down this place alone. Not to mention anything else, Yangzhou was defeated by Zhang Xuan, even though Zhang Xuan adjusted his defense, but Zhang Xuan's influence still exists in Yangzhou.

Even Runing and Xuzhou are the same, this place is by default Zhang Xuan's sphere of influence. When these officials are transferred, they will ask Zhang Xuan what his opinion is.

And Luo Yulong defeated these places, and naturally included these places in his sphere of influence. It is very beneficial to the growth of Luo Yulong's strength.

Therefore, Luo Yulong immediately approved Zhang Xuan's meaning.

Without waiting for Qian Qianyi to come to Changzhou Mansion, Zhang Xuan's army bypassed Taihu Lake and went south.

Along the way, Zhang Xuan did not divide his troops much, and the prefectures and counties that surrendered in Huzhou Mansion only arranged a few people and then asked the local prefectures and counties to report to Luo Yulong. And Zhang Xuan's army went straight to Hangzhou, but his movements were fast, and he didn't dare to change fast.

"Report." A scout said: "The news from Jinhua Mansion that Xu Du has surrendered to the official army, Chen Zilong visited Xu Du, and Xu Du followed Chen Zilong into Jinhua Mansion. ”

Although Zhang Xuan's army was walking slowly, the scouts had already galloped to Jinhua. However, the news I got was not good news.

I can't get a lot of inside information, but Xu Du and his party of more than 60 people entered Jinhua Mansion with Chen Zilong, but they can't hide it.

"It's not going to be easy." Zhang Xuan said secretly in his heart.

In an instant, many thoughts popped up in Zhang Xuan's heart. He originally wanted to surrender Xu Du, but he never thought that he would not arrive, and Xu Du chose to surrender.

"Didn't our people see Xu Du?" Zhang Xuan asked.

"I saw it, it can be when our people arrived, Chen Zilong also arrived, and Xu Du sent our gifts out of the country." The scout said.

Zhang Xuan instantly understood Xu Du's thoughts, and said secretly: "Is this a thief's self-respect?" ”

If there was no envoy sent by himself, Xu Du might not have reached an agreement with Chen Zilong so easily, and it was his own people who appeared, and the news of Zhang Xuan's soldiers pressing the realm arrived. There are a lot of concessions on the part of the government. will reach an agreement so quickly.

Zhang Xuan pondered for a while and said: "Immediately send someone to spread the news, just say that Xu Du has already surrendered to us, and this time entering Jinhua City is just a fraud to seize the city." The march will also be slowed down a bit. Jinhua City is not in a hurry to go. ”

"Yes." Someone immediately agreed to come down and go down to make arrangements.

"Brother-in-law." He Hutou said: "Your discord plan is too obvious. I can see that it won't have any effect. ”

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly and said: "The separation meter can only be used if it is separated, it doesn't need to be too complicated.

As long as they have a gap in their minds, they can use it. As for the effect? The most people in this world are not smart people, nor stupid people, but stupid people who think they are smart. ”

He Hutou didn't understand what he heard.

Zhang Xuan continued: "If there is anything else, there is no one, anyway, it is a matter of a few words, and it doesn't take much effort." ”

There is no possibility of going down to Jinhua quickly, Zhang Xuan slowed down the march, stopped for a while in Lin'an, and the army was stationed in the west of Hangzhou, which made the city of Hangzhou shocked, and put the army under Hangzhou to guard against Zhang Xuan.

Immediately, Luo Yulong came from the north, and the cavalry suddenly arrived under the city of Hangzhou, and the city of Hangzhou had no time to react, so the city gate was taken down.

Hangzhou immediately fell, a large number of ministers led by Liu Zongzhou died, but Qian Qianyi was there, but he also recruited a lot of scholars and formed an official government, with the fall of Suzhou and Hangzhou, Luo Yulong did not continue to fight, but gave Zhang Xuan an order to let Zhang Xuan sweep southern Zhejiang. He concentrated on one thing in Hangzhou, that is, to form his own civil service team.

Zhang Xuan was under the city of Hangzhou, and after a cooperation with Luo Yulong, the army went south, crossed the Qiantang River by a detour to the west, and the army broke into Jinhua Mansion.

At this time, Yanzhou Mansion was already in Zhang Xuan's hands.

However, Zhang Xuan at this time was different from before, the previous Zhang Xuan fought in one place, and he tried to maintain order on one side and rebuild the government, but now Zhang Xuan is just maintaining order and rebuilding the government, and the matter of rebuilding the government is handed over to Luo Yulong.

Therefore, a large number of scholars under Luo Yulong's command who have just taken refuge have all obtained the official titles of Yanzhou Mansion and have arrived one after another, and many of them are seeking the prefectures and counties that have not yet been captured, and they are obviously very optimistic about the momentum of Cao Ying.

I have to say that there is only a shortage of talents in the world, and there is never a shortage of official talents, and there are too many people who want to be officials.

Just when the army went straight into Jinhua Mansion, an incident also happened in Jinhua Mansion.

In the Jinhua Mansion Office, Zuo Guangxian pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Tomorrow, please invite Xu Du to the banquet." Let Chen Zilong go and please, you are all ready. ”

"Yes." Zuo Guangxian's subordinates said yes one after another.

Zuo Guangxian is not Zuo Guangxian, the father of Zuo Xun of the border army, but a native of Tongcheng, Anhui Province, and he was also born in Jinshi, and he is also very old, and he has a lot of credit for pacifying thieves in various places, and this time he is not in Jinhua in the name of the prefect of Jinhua, but in Jinhua in the name of the Zhejiang Patrol.

Although he is a patrol, in fact, these prefectures and counties in southern Zhejiang that have not fallen are the largest in Zuo Guangxian, and he is actually the commander-in-chief of the prefectures and counties in southern Zhejiang.

It's just that he came to Jinhua to deal with the Xudu Rebellion, and whether he can completely control the few prefectures and counties in southern Zhejiang that have not yet fallen depends on his own skills.
