After leaving Nanchang City, Zhang Zhijie did not order the army to march in a hurry, but scattered the spies, and the Jinyiwei spies buried in Jiangxi were all mobilized!

Although he was very disdainful of King Ning's army, Zhang Zhijie did not relax his vigilance, let alone rashly advance the enemy, but led the army forward with extreme caution! This is called despising the enemy strategically and valuing the enemy tactically!

But on the contrary, after King Ning's army left Jiujiang City, King Ning's mood became more urgent, and he couldn't wait for the army to fly in front of the imperial army and beat the imperial army, so King Ning kept urging the army to march quickly, Liu Shiyang and others persuaded hard, how could King Ning not only not listen, but also lost his temper!

King Ning's army rushed all the way to Nanchang, but Zhang Zhijie's army was slowly and leisurely, the army only advanced for twenty miles, and the sun was still high, so Zhang Zhijie ordered to set up camp! Although his subordinates were a little confused, no one questioned it, and just silently obeyed the order!

The movement of King Ning's army did not match the eyes of the escaping Jinyi Guard's secret agent, and the news quickly reached Zhang Zhijie's hands! Zhang Zhijie took the note in his hand and was silent!

King Ning's army is very weird! It turned out that it was a rapid march all the way, completely ignoring the physical strength of the army, King Ning looked very urgent?

It's really strange, how could King Ning be so urgent? Looks like you want to fight as soon as possible? Why? Could it be that someone is pushing him?

No, who else can persecute him? It is simply impossible, so King Ning must have become very urgent because of something, and he wants to fight a decisive battle as soon as possible, and secondly, even King Ning must think that his army is very capable of field battles and is not afraid of field battles! It seems that the battle under the city of Anqing has indeed given King Ning a lot of confidence!

King Ning is so urgent, does that mean that if he didn't lead the army to battle, King Ning would also lead the army to attack the city directly?

It's not impossible! Do you want to lead the army back to Nanchang? Zhang Zhijie groaned in his heart.

No, they have already led the troops to fight, and then turn back to Nanchang, which will have a great impact on morale, and the prestige of the imperial army will also hinder, and in the end, it is just a guess that King Ning will come to attack the city, and it is not certain whether he will come! If King Ning's army didn't come to attack the city, it would be a missed opportunity!

So you can't turn back to Nanchang, but since King Ning's army is so eager to fight a decisive battle, it seems that there is no need for him to march anymore, just wait for King Ning's army to come!

Thirty miles further is the woodcutter, that place seems to be good, very suitable for the army to be stationed! So the next day, after the army marched all the way to Qiaoshe, Zhang Zhijie ordered the army to camp here.

Zhang Zhijie beat the drums and gathered the generals and made his own decision: "This governor has decided that the army will be stationed here to wait for the arrival of King Ning's army!" ”

The generals didn't react for a while, and couldn't help but look at each other, since the Admiral led the army out of Nanchang City, there was no intention of marching in a hurry, and the army marched extremely slowly along the way, feeling like a vacation!

These generals are actually a little anxious in their hearts, just look at the cowardice of the defenders of Nanchang City, they can know that they can stick to Nanchang, a heavy city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they were broken after only holding on for half a day! It can be seen that King Ning's army is not strong!

Of course, they also knew about the battle under the city of Anqing, Peng Ze's army was beaten by King Ning's army and lost its armor, and it was defeated! These generals thought it was a little incredible!

Even if Peng Ze led the guards and horses requisitioned from Anhui, Jiangsu and other places, it would not be beaten like this by King Ning's army? You must know that King Ning's army has not been defeated for a month after fighting in Anqing City! The defenders of Nanchang held out for a long time, and Nanchang was beaten down by them!

Therefore, for them, after learning the news of the defeat of Peng Ze's army, they did not feel afraid, but humiliated! Peng Ze is only talking on paper, what a scholar misleads the country!

So after coming out of Nanchang City, these generals all held their breath and must beat King Ning's army to the ground! Of course, there is also a sense of meritorious service. But who knew that the Admiral was not in a hurry and did not get angry, and he would not leave after traveling more than ten miles a day with the army!

This made them a little anxious, but they didn't dare to question anything, first, the Admiral was in a high position and powerful! The second is naturally Zhang Zhijie's prestige in the army, but he is a famous general who has won many battles!

Zhang Chun of the Shenji Battalion was an old man who followed Zhang Zhijie, so after hearing Zhang Zhijie's decision that the army would not advance, he hugged his fists and asked on behalf of everyone: "Lord Admiral, let's wait here, what if King Ning's army doesn't come?" Will he directly lead the army to attack Nanchang directly? ”

Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "King Ning's army should not directly attack Nanchang, and this governor thinks that King Ning will have any shadow on the siege!" If King Ning's army really went to attack Nanchang, then this was what the emperor and the governor couldn't ask for! Just wrap him dumplings! ”

Zhang Zhijie knew that it was normal for these generals to be a little worried! If the army is stationed here and the army of King Ning is driven straight into Nanchang, who knows what the emperor will think?

So Zhang Zhijie directly gave them a guarantee, and the emperor was also looking forward to King Ning attacking Nanchang! This is true, before Zhang Zhijie went to war, Emperor Zhengde still muttered to him, hoping that King Ning would divide his troops to attack Nanchang, otherwise he would be too lonely to sit in Nanchang!

Zhang Zhijie was very speechless about this, if King Ning divided his troops, it would be really stupid and pitiful! Therefore, Zhang Zhijie thinks that the possibility of King Ning dividing his troops is very small!

"According to the news that the governor received, after receiving the reply, King Ning's army immediately led the army to leave Jiujiang, and it had been marching in a hurry, which seemed to be very urgent and eager to fight! Although Ben Du was very puzzled by this, and didn't know why King Ning was so eager to fight, it was obvious that since he had sent a letter to provoke us to fight, he would definitely not think about missing the opportunity! Zhang Zhijie told the story!

"Since King Ning is so eager to fight, why should we bother to fight? Why don't you just wait here for work? It's just that what makes Ben Du very puzzled is that he still can't figure out why King Ning is so eager to fight! Zhang Zhijie shook his head and said.

"It must be that King Ning thinks that our army is vulnerable, haha, we will give him an unforgettable surprise!" Song Chun listened to Zhang Zhijie's explanation, and the generals were relieved, so he laughed.
