In addition to the current situation in Yangzhou City, the most important thing is whether to dare to let the Beiqing army cross the Yangtze River! You must know that the combat power of Beiqing is different from the "miscellaneous army" formed by Nanqing. Once the Yangtze River is lost, whether you can hold Yangzhou or not is a second word!

But even so, this method of retreating to Yangzhou to defend against the enemy is better than waiting until the grain and grass are exhausted, so that there is a mutiny in this military camp and he is in chaos.

Seeing that Xia Lingcang didn't speak again, Liu Dabeard continued: "I just saw that all the generals didn't speak, and I thought that all the generals didn't know these things." Now listening to General Xia, it seems that ...... You know that! ”

I have to say that Hu Qilin can give Liu Dabeard the authority to dispatch the three armies, and he still has some vision. This bearded Liu also has some means to deal with this kind of thing.

"If the generals don't speak, then there will be no results today? If that's the case, then wait! Seeing that everyone hung their heads after finishing speaking, Liu Dabeard spoke again.

Obviously, he is not alone in the anxiety now. He has said everything he should have said, and your casual actions have driven everyone in this tent to a dead end...... Wait any longer, even if Beiqing does not cross the river to attack, the battalion will mutiny.

Therefore, after Liu Dabeard finished speaking, Xie Xunxiong, who had not spoken, spoke, "Okay! I, Xie Xunxiong, will listen to you Liu Dabeard this time! Let's retreat to Yangzhou! Anyway, it's all come to this point, and we always have to come up with a solution. ”

Hearing Xie Xunxiong's words, Liu Dabeard nodded with a smile, and then hugged Xie Xunxiong's hand, "It's rare that General Xie can support me this time, Liu has thanked me here." After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Xia Lingcang again, "General Xia, there are three departments in this army, General Xie has already agreed, I don't know ......"

Xia Lingcang's old troops were the weakest, and now that he heard that Xie Xunxiong had promised, it would be of little significance for him to continue to stalemate. Sighing helplessly, he nodded, "That's all there is to it......"

Hearing this, Xia Lingcang also opened his mouth to agree, and Liu Dabeard finally breathed a sigh of relief. His plan has only just begun......

In Yangzhou City, about forty miles south of the Nanqing military camp, Jin Yun, the prefect of Yangzhou, packed up his things and fled on the night when the refugees broke the city. After these refugees entered the city, after three consecutive days of chaos, the situation in the city finally gradually "stabilized".

The chaos in Yangzhou City was arranged by Mo Lingtian. And the Qinglian Sect members lurking among the refugees are no longer a minority. And after smashing enough and making enough trouble, someone will stand up and need to preside over the overall situation...... These refugees still have a lot of use.

In fact, it stands to reason that it was the city gate opened by Zhehuafeng and others, and this Yangzhou city is also the most suitable in the hands of a group of their rivers and lakes. But Mo Lingtian did not make this arrangement. After Zhehuafeng and others opened the city gate, they disappeared into Yangzhou City the next day. And Mo Lingtian sent it, but it was someone else!

This person's name is Jiang Yuyan, and like Feng Li, who previously commanded the Qinglian Army in Jinling, he is one of the hall masters in the Qinglian Sect. However, unlike the lustful Feng Li, this Jiang Yuyan has a title called "Blood Maitreya", bareheaded, ruthless, usually smiling, but killing is by no means ambiguous.

Jiang Yuyan was previously arranged among the refugees outside Yangzhou City, in order to wait for the opening of the Yangzhou City Gate, lead these tens of thousands of refugees to rush into the city, and then block the retreat of the Nanqing army.

In fact, according to Mo Lingtian's previous plan, he smoothly took Jinling, and threatened the lives of scholars in Jinling City to force the Nanqing Imperial Court to submit, and formed a trend of echoing Yangzhou, then the big thing could be accomplished...... But now, after Jinling's miscalculation, Yangzhou has become an outcast in Mo Lingtian's view! If there is no Jinling support, if there is no threat from those scholars, even if Nanqing's troops are unbearable, they want to rely on these refugees to hold Yangzhou City...... But it's impossible!

Jiang Yuyan received Mo Lingtian's superstition, so after entering the city, he allowed these refugees to be in chaos in the city for three days...... At this time, in the prefect's mansion of Yangzhou City, this was originally where Jin Yun lived, and now it has become Jiang Yuyan's mansion.

In fact, to be honest, he has been in Yangzhou City for the past few days, and he actually doesn't want to give up Yangzhou City too much. But thinking of Mo Lingtian's methods, he still had to give in.

At this time, this Jiang Yuyan was eating with about seven or eight people, and although the food had been served, no one dared to move the chopsticks. are all waiting for this "smiling tiger".

These seven or eight people were actually refugees before, and it was only because they were attracted by the Qinglian Sect that they joined the Qinglian Sect. And their role in the refugees is to co-opt forces. In fact, tens of thousands of refugees rushing into the city are not very difficult to deal with, but these refugees are organized, and it is different. And they are the leaders of these refugees.

"Eat, don't wait, eat." Jiang Yuyan said, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the dish, and when everyone saw this, they moved the chopsticks one after another.

It's just that after Jiang Yuyan took a bite, he put down his chopsticks again, "I called you here today, mainly because I want to talk about something...... If the estimate is good, the military camp outside Yangzhou City should have moved......"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone put down their chopsticks and turned their heads to look at him. Jiang Yuyan continued, "So, it's time for us to take action." ”

No one dared to speak, they were all waiting for Jiang Yuyan's next words, and as a member of the refugees, they had a few catties and taels, and they were all clear. It's okay to make people chaotic in Yangzhou City, but if you want to resist the army of Nanqing...... It's impossible.

"Don't be nervous, since I am in this Yangzhou City, I will definitely not let you go to war." After a pause, then he looked at everyone and said, "Clean up your own people, remember to dress up as refugees, we ...... Go to Jinling! ”

Going to Jinling? Everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard it, although it was said that they couldn't stop the Nanqing army, but this was just the means to starve Yangzhou City, and now they are losing it like this, but it's a little too arbitrary, right?

But although they were puzzled in their hearts, no one dared to say anything...... There are many, many people who can replace them.

On April 20, the sixth year of Shuangqing, after the turmoil in Yangzhou because of refugees, these refugee armies finally withdrew from Yangzhou City and headed towards Jinling. And all the troops in Nanqing also retreated to Yangzhou, and the forces of all parties were on the verge of a big war!
