    ?

    In fact, Fatty Lu is definitely not the only one staring at the opportunity to lead the army alone. Among the Wu army, which has never been short of veterans on the battlefield, there are definitely not a few who are qualified, capable and ambitious to take the opportunity to lead the army alone. Naturally, they will not miss this opportunity.  Godsend.

    It's not that all the generals in the Wu army are like Lu Fatty, who are so stubborn. Since the day they joined the Wu army, they have been holding back while using the Wu army while looking for opportunities to stand on their own. The key is that the benefits of leading the army alone are too many, prestige  Needless to say, Bamian is high-ranking and powerful. You don¡¯t have to look at the face of your boss and coach every day and don¡¯t say anything. In addition, if you lose a battle, you can find your subordinates to take the blame.  The advantages of choosing by yourself, etc., these are really very attractive to Lao Qiuba in the Wu army.

    The opportunity finally came. Wu Jun blatantly played the banner of anti-Qing and Fuming, cut his braids and hair, and pulled out the hard nail in Jingzhou. Everyone knows that Wu Jun's full-scale counterattack is imminent, and there is definitely more than one way to counterattack-this point  From the experience of the battle in Jingzhou, it can be easily seen that in the disadvantaged situation of using less to attack and more troops, the old traitor Wu refused to mobilize the nearby Yuezhou garrison and Wuchang garrison for reinforcements, and he did not mobilize the war.  The Hengzhou garrison and Sichuan garrison with sufficient troops reinforced the Jingzhou battlefield. This was enough for the old traitor Wu not to disrupt the strategic deployment.

    At present, only the old traitor Wu and his absolute cronies Hu Guozhu, Fang Guangchen and others know how many attacks Wu Jun will launch at the same time, but one thing is absolutely certain.  There are definitely not enough points for coaching candidates.  Because there are too many people eyeing this position, the four major Jinwu generals and the four pro-army generals are all qualified. Among the eight, except Wu Shizongyuan who must dominate all the way in Guangxi, the other seven are all squatting along the Yangtze River battlefield  This means that, except for the old and frail Jinwu Empress General Zhao Zhaoyang, all of them are popular candidates to lead the army alone.

    In addition, there are Ma Bao, the head of the Wu army's four great cavalry generals, Wei Pu and Tao Jizhi, who have always been trusted by Wu old traitors, and Liu Hongyi, Liu Zhifu, Gao Dejie, and Han Daren, who have performed extremely well recently.  Wu Zhimao, Tan Hong, and Li Benshen in the Sichuan battlefield were all candidates for the dark horse level coaches. Among them, Ma Bao, who was good at cavalry warfare and had experience in commanding troops alone, was even more popular than the traitorous sons and nephews of Old Wu.  Fatty Lu, who is still inexperienced, wants to stand out from so many candidates and get a piece of cake. The difficulty is no less difficult than fighting the Jingzhou or Wuchang battles again.

    There were too many monks and too little porridge. Almost at the end of the Jingzhou War, the generals of the Wu army, who seemed to be united on the surface, began to fight openly and secretly. The most promising Wu Guogui, Xia Guoxiang, Ma Bao, Wu Yingjing, Zu Shushun and others competed every day in front of the old Wu traitor.  Needless to say, Tao Jizhi, Liu Hongyi and other generals are also digging around, showing off in front of the old traitor Wu with the credit they have made all the time, and begging the old traitor Wu to give them a chance.

    Even Han Daren, who was played by Tu Hai and almost lost his confidence, but because of the old traitor Wu accidentally named him the third meritorious service for capturing the Jingzhou magistrate and Tongzhi, and named him General Renwu and concurrently  Bing Cao's palm seal became the third official in the Wu army who concurrently held civil and military positions, which made him rekindle his fighting spirit and ambition, and joined the battle for the head coach of the army alone, using his good relationship with Xia Guoxiang and Hu Guozhu to flatter Wu old traitors  , in an attempt to get a share of it.

    Competitors have already been fighting openly and secretly at full speed, but poor Fatty Lu didn't find the opportunity to mention this matter in front of Old Traitor Wu until the day of the wedding because of the wedding preparations. Unfortunately, Old Traitor Wu's answer was ambiguous, neither  Blocking Fatty Lu's hopes, he didn't hint that he would give Fatty Lu a chance. Fatty Lu stomped his feet anxiously, but he was helpless.

    Fatty Lu himself is not the only one who is anxious for the opportunity of Fatty Lu to lead the army alone. Wang Shaobo, Zhu Fangdan and Li Tianzhi of Lu Fatty's direct line are also extremely anxious, and they don't want to miss the opportunity to follow Fatty Lu.  The next day, Fatty Lu's absolute cronies took advantage of Fatty Lu's wedding leave to rest at home, and jointly visited Fatty Lu's house, giving advice and bad ideas to Fatty Lu, and instigating Fatty Lu to seize the commander.

    Four people, Wang Shaobo, Zhu Fangdan, Li Tianzhi and Hu Tongchun joined hands to visit¡ªsince Line Yuer's identity was exposed, the lineage that Line Yuer brought to Fatty Lu from Guangxi was handed over to Hu Tongchun to lead, and the line Yuer's father and daughter  The loyal Hu Tongchun naturally took the place of Line Yuer and became Fatty Lu's important assistant on the battlefield. Such a major event involved the fundamental interests of the Guangxi Wu army, so it was impossible for Hu Tongchun to ignore it.  And pass??.  Moreover, the grandson-in-law hates the Manchu court, and the Mangou must kill the grandson-in-law quickly, and the grandfather knows better than anyone else that the grandson-in-law leads the army, so there is no doubt about his loyal grandfather!  This is the grandson-in-law's first point that others can't match!  "

    "Barely counted." Old man Wu smiled treacherously, and asked again: "What about the second one?"

    "The second is ability!" Fatty Lu replied loudly: "Since my grandson joined his grandfather, in the past seven years, his son-in-law has been born and died for his grandfather countless times. No matter how hard the job is, he has never complained! No matter how much the job is  Difficulties, even including the errands that the grandfather has no confidence in achieving the goal, the grandson-in-law has tried every means to achieve it for the grandfather. He has never failed, and has never disappointed his grandfather! This is the second point of the grandson-in-law that no one else can do.  urgent!"

    "You bastard, make it sound like you are omnipotent." The old man Wu smiled even wider, and waved his hand again: "Does this count, let alone, your others can't match the third  What's the point?"

    "It's wisdom!" Fatty Lu answered faster, "My son-in-law never sticks to stereotypes in military affairs and political affairs.  Others can't match three!"

    "Damn it!" Old Han Wu laughed and scolded, "You said it as if you were better than anyone else. Do you want to say that including your grandfather, I am not as good as you?"

    "Son-in-law doesn't dare!" Fatty Lu quickly kowtowed and flattered him: "Grandfather's martial arts, mighty, brave, and clever strategies are beyond the reach of my grandson-in-law!  In the army, there is a battlefield where only grandson-in-law is competent except for grandfather leading the army himself, no matter who goes there, it is impossible to do better than grandson-in-law!"

    "Damn it, you said you were fat and you were panting. When did you become so arrogant, little fat man?" Old man Wu laughed treacherously, and asked again: "Then tell me, on that battlefield, only the king himself  Apart from leading the army, only you can do it? Can it be done by anyone else?"

    "Northern Jiangxi battlefield!" Fatty Lu replied loudly: "The Manchu army has now concentrated on the Shaanxi-Gansu and Northern Jiangxi battlefields.  The city is defended, and there is the natural danger of Poyang Lake to rely on, so it is difficult to attack and defend! Unless my grandfather leads the main force of our army to conquer, otherwise it will be as difficult for our army to capture northern Jiangxi and go straight to the south of the Yangtze River!"

    Old Traitor Wu suppressed his smile and stared at Fatty Lu carefully. His eagle eyes gleamed under the light of the charcoal fire, as sharp as if they were piercing into Fatty Lu's internal organs.  After a long time, the old traitor Wu asked in a hoarse voice: "If the king sends you to the battlefield in northern Jiangxi, what can you do for the king?"

    "Jin Ke's grandfather went straight to Nanjing, and captured the richest place in the south of the Yangtze River!" Fatty Lu also brazenly bragged, and said loudly: "Shou Ke's grandfather captured Nanchang and Jiujiang, and ensured that his grandfather's backyard is safe and sound!  Contain the main force of the south of the Yangtze River for my grandfather, so that he has no time to divide his troops, and create a fighting opportunity for my grandfather's army from all walks of life!"

    "If you retire, my grandson-in-law will protect the army for my grandfather, and I will never return in a disastrous defeat, causing the situation to deteriorate and ruining my grandfather's good situation! In this regard, my grandson-in-law is confident that no one can do better than my grandson-in-law for my grandfather!"

    After finishing speaking, Fatty Lu kowtowed three times again, and looked up at Old Traitor Wu, while Old Traitor Wu continued to stare at Fatty Lu, but did not speak. The pavilion was so quiet that even a needle dropped on the ground could be heard clearly  .

    "Grandfather also believes that this is the case." The old traitor Wu finally said, and made a decision with a huge impact with a smile, "In the most difficult and important battlefield in northern Jiangxi, there is indeed no second person in our army who can  Doing better than you. ¡ª¡ªSo, grandfather has decided that you will be the chief general of the Eastern Route Army."
