Entering Nanchang City, as soon as they sat down in the governor's yamen, Zhong Yue and Gao Jie stretched out their thumbs to Sun Chuanting.

"Gao, Master Inspector, it's really high, the first battle is decided, Zuo Liangyu's 100,000 people fell apart and fell apart in an instant, this battle was too enjoyable!"

Sun Chuanting shook his head and replied: "Okay, you two don't slap my ass, Zuo Liangyu has been addicted to wine for many years, and he is getting older, and he is no longer as good as he was back then, although Jiujiang Town under his command has many soldiers and generals, but the good and the bad are uneven, the dragons and snakes are mixed, the so-called soldiers are not expensive, Zuo Liangyu is a taboo in the soldiers, otherwise, with an army of 100,000 and Nanchang City in hand, where can we defeat it in one day?" Moreover, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, invincible, the three of us can be said to be Zuo Liangyu's old acquaintances, and we are clear about the situation in Jiujiang Town, but he Zuo Liangyu is blind to the two towns of Nanjing, he didn't expect that we have so many artillery and muskets, and he didn't expect that we would have so many rockets, rockets that have never been encountered, it's strange not to suffer a big loss, 20,000 elites, under our indiscriminate bombardment, we were completely stunned in less than an hour, Even he himself died under Gao Jie's musket, who is to blame? Next, our fight with Zhang Xianzhong is the key, only by completely defeating Zhang Xianzhong, we can really pacify Jiangnan, and we can concentrate on dealing with the Manchurian Tartars in the north. ”

Gao Jie said excitedly: "Zuo Liangyu's 100,000 army was wiped out in an instant, then we will deal with Zhang Xianzhong, that is, half a month and a month, hehe, the group of bandits under Zhang Xianzhong is not as good as Zuo Liangyu's army!" ”

Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice: "Yingwu, don't be careless, Zhang Xianzhong has been able to crisscross Sichuan, Shaanxi and Huguang for 20 years, how many heroes and heroes have been blown away by the rain and wind, only he is still standing, that naturally has his advantages, and now the Huguang battle is the key to it, we have no chance to start over, a wrong move, then you will lose the whole game, you know how heavy the burden on your shoulders is!" ”

Gao Jie's face turned red, and he nodded yes again and again.

Zhong Yue said in a deep voice: "My lord, it just so happens that we are short of soldiers, in this breath, we have captured Zuo Liangyu's army of forty or fifty thousand people, and some of them have even surrendered in formation, so it is better to temporarily replenish them all to the two towns of Nanjing for our use!" ”

Sun Chuanting nodded, Zhong Yue didn't say it, he also had such a plan, after all, only 40,000 troops were too weak, even if Huang Degong's troops were added, after repeated battles, the strength of the three towns would not exceed 60,000, and the strength of Zhang Xianzhong's army was too far away, and it was impossible for him to be as smooth as fighting Zuo Liangyu in every battle, and it was necessary to supplement his strength!

"Zhong Yue, Yingwu, the two of you immediately set out to rectify the army, pass on the order, all the generals of Jiujiang Town, but those who are willing to surrender to the court and serve the court again, the court will not blame the past, only punish the evil, and then fight Huguang, if you can make contributions to the country, you will be crowned a wife and a son in the future, and you must do your best to gather the minds of these generals!"

The two of them nodded their heads one after another.

Sun Chuanting continued: "Also, the strength of these Jiujiang Towns is really uneven, and some of them are even old men in their fifties and sixties, and they are still indiscriminately filling up the number in the army, how can they do it?" The order goes down, but all those in the army who are over forty-five years old will be sent home, those who are under the age of sixteen will also be dismissed, and those who are weak and sick will be dismissed, we will face a strong enemy like Zhang Xianzhong in the future, and we can't take these old, weak, sick and disabled people to die, three days, you only have three days to prepare, go all out, complete the rectification of the two towns of Nanjing and Jiujiang Town, I allow you to expand the strength of each town by 13,000 troops, and after three days, the troops will be sent to Wuchang Mansion! ”

Only three days were given to the two of them, and they were going to send troops again, which showed the urgency of time, but they didn't have three days now.

Only two days later, just on the third day, a fast horse broke into Nanchang Mansion like lightning, all the way to the governor's yamen!

"Report! ——Nanjing's 600 Miles Urgent Paperwork——"

The messenger rolled straight down from his horse and ran into the lobby, shouting urgently.

Gao Jie and Zhong Yue were still in the city to rectify military affairs, only Sun Chuanting stayed in the lobby to handle official business, and when he raised his head, the messenger had already staggered in!

"Lord Qiqi Ministry, Nanjing Emergency!"

Sun Chuanting stood up immediately, six hundred miles in an emergency, if it was not a major event, Nanjing would definitely not alarm him, after all, he was here when the war was urgent!

"Where's the paperwork!"

Sun Chuanting shouted.

A servant hurriedly took the document and handed it to Sun Chuanting.

Sun Chuanting only glanced twice, his face changed greatly, and he shouted urgently: "Come on, immediately spread Gao Jie and Zhong Yue to the yamen to discuss matters, urgent official business, 100,000 urgent!" Drumming Gathering! ”

It didn't take long for Gao Jie and Zhong Yue to run up to the lobby in a hurry, I don't know what the adults were doing in such a hurry to summon the two of them back.

"Master, what's wrong? What's wrong, so anxious to find us? The drums have been beaten! ”

Gao Jie asked urgently.

Sun Chuanting's face was gloomy, he handed the document to Gao Jie's hand, and said in a deep voice: "There was an accident in Nanjing, Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, suddenly led his troops to start an incident, spread the word to the world, the emperor was guilty of ten crimes, slandered the emperor for stealing the throne and stealing the country, and rebelled, and called on all towns in the world to raise troops to discuss and rebuild the ......Ming Dynasty."

"Bastard!"

Gao Jie had a violent temper, jumped up directly, and scolded, "Damn Ma Shiying, I knew this earlier, Lao Tzu should have chopped you up in the first place!" The damned traitor dared to defy the condemnation of the world and act perversely, and it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart if he did not punish him! ”

Zhong Yue's face on the side was solemn, and he shouted: "Brother Yingwu, now is not the time to be angry, as soon as Ma Shiying leads his troops to rebel, then the entire Jiangnan will be in danger, and now the defense of Nanjing City is empty, and all the troops together are less than 10,000 people, and they are all the old, weak, sick and disabled who are left behind, how can they resist Ma Shiying's tens of thousands of troops?" Moreover, Ma Shiying's Fengyang is only one or two hundred miles away from Nanjing City, and it only takes two days to reach the city of Nanjing, Nanzhili is the heart of the imperial court, this time it is a big trouble......"

Sun Chuanting is worried about this, otherwise he would not have found two people to discuss urgently, although before leaving, the emperor once confidently said that with him in Nanjing City, even if Dolgon personally led the troops to come, he could be as stable as Mount Tai, but that was just talking, no soldiers and no generals, how to protect the safety of Nanjing City?
