    It was Xia Guoxiang who was unlucky to plant trees in Tuhai, and Zhangtai took advantage of the shade. The real beneficiary was Fatty Lu, who was watching the fire from the other side.  Xia Guoxiang, who lost his troops and ran out of food, grass and firearms, was forced to withdraw his army. The first major crisis after the Fatty Army got rid of the direct control of the old traitor Wu finally passed.  Threats, the old Wu Jun inside the Fatty Army does not have to face the problem of standing in line and be torn apart. They can unite and work together to deal with the direct threat of the Qing Army and the Geng Jingzhong Army. The various pressures on Fatty Lu are also greatly reduced-after all,  Open spears are easy to block, but hidden arrows are the hardest to guard against.

    So far, the chaotic situation around Fat Man's Army is basically clear. The 120,000 troops led by Yue Le are entrenched in Huai'an Mansion in the north of Yangzhou, north of the Yellow River, threatening Yangzhou Mansion, the northern gate of Fat Man's Army;  The three Qing armies were stationed in Chuzhou, Tongling, and Anqing, with a total strength of about 110,000 troops. However, because of the need to defend the city and guard against soldiers from Wu Yingqi, Shang Zhixin, and Geng Jingzhong, the largest number of troops could really be put into the Jiangnan battlefield.  Only seventy percent.

    The situation on the southern front of the Fatty Army is more complicated. The Fatty Army, Geng Jingzhong Army, Zheng Jingjun, and Zhejiang Qing Army have a total strength of more than 100,000 troops, but they are interlocked with each other.  The four forces tried their best to maintain restraint, and they all hoped that the other three would fight each other to the death, and then come out to take advantage of it.  Although the Fatty Army is in the eye of the storm and surrounded by enemies on all sides, relying on the dangers of rivers, mountains and lakes, the elite soldiers also rely on the land of the world's wealth and essence, rich food and plentiful products, unless the enemy invades from all sides at the same time, otherwise it will not matter.  In any route alone, the Fatty Army has the absolute ability and absolute confidence to repel it, or even wipe it out.

    Faced with such a situation, Fatty Lu, who holds the world's granary, Huaxia Bank, with unlimited potential, of course hopes that the decisive battle will be as soon as possible, and use time to bring down the finances of the Qing Dynasty, which is on the verge of collapse, as well as Geng Jingzhong and Zheng Zheng, who are absolutely lacking in stamina.  According to the scriptures, build high walls and slowly become king, concentrate on strengthening your strength, and then show your sword to the world when the time is right.  Therefore, even though he had a good chance of winning, Fatty Lu rationally maintained restraint, and ordered the four major legions not to take the initiative to attack, and defending the territory to waste time is victory!  Enemies from all directions come if you want, Fat Lord, my fortified city weapon is waiting for you!  The jackals and hungry tigers around you are also waiting for you to leave the lair!

    Faced with the same situation, as well as Fatty Lu's shameless tactics, all of Fatty Lu's hapless opponents jumped in a hurry. There was no chance of winning the attack, and they couldn't beat Fatty Lu's fat body.  The biggest hope is that Fatty Lu will take the initiative to attack and look for opportunities to win in a more certain defensive battle, or he can count on other people to be the early birds and pawns, first consume part of Fatty Lu's strength and then come out to pick up the cheap, but in this world  Is there such a good thing?  Is there such a fool in the world who would act as a pawn to block Fatty Lu's gun in place of a dead ghost?

    Or the newly crowned Prince Zhang Taizhang is such a fool. Unfortunately, after he resumed his position as General Jingkou of Anyuan, he still commanded only Anqing's more than 30,000 troops. He was too far away from Fatty Lu, and he couldn't fight him even if he wanted to.  And although Prince Zhang deserved to die, the 30,000 Qing soldiers under his command were innocent, and Yue Le couldn't bear to let these innocent soldiers be buried with Prince Zhang.

    Therefore, there was no other way, and Wang Ye Yue Le had no choice but to focus on Geng Jingzhong, who had recently turned against Fatty Lu, hoping that he could fight with Fatty Lu first and consume some of Fatty Lu's strength.  And our Jingnan King, Geng Jingzhong, Geng Geng, has personally led 20,000 soldiers and horses, and arrived at Yiwu County, Jinhua Prefecture, which was recently occupied by the Geng Army on the 16th day of the first lunar month.  Jiangnan, use Jiangnan's abundant money and food to completely make up for the financial shortcomings of the self-armed army.  ¡ªBy the way, among the San Francisco, the poorest one is this Lord Geng.

    Arrived in Yiwu County where the main force of the Geng Army¡¯s North Route Army is located, and just learned about the specific situation in northern Zhejiang, Geng Jingzhong¡¯s buttocks have not yet warmed up, Yue Le¡¯s secret envoy has already arrived, and he asked Geng Jingzhong to send troops to fight with Zhejiang  The Qing army jointly attacked Fatty Lu and Liu Guoxuan. After the incident was completed, Yue Le gave the whole of Zhejiang to Geng Jingzhong, and tried his best to persuade Kang Mazi to allow Geng Jingzhong to proclaim the emperor and share the world with Geng Jingzhong.  However, Lord Geng is not a fool. While maintaining this relationship with Yue Lexu and the Snake, he sent envoys to Nanjing to apologize to Fatty Lu and ask Fatty Lu to provide food, grass and military pay so that his own army can attack Shaoxing and Ningbo, and pull out the Qing army in Nanjing.  The last nail in Zhejiang is to actively prepare for war and be ready to send troops north at any time.

    Prince Geng is not stupid, and our Lu Sanhao is not a fool. When Geng Jingzhong's envoy arrived in Nanjing again, the news that Xia Guoxiang was miraculously beaten away by Master Zhangtai Beizi had already spread to Nanjing.  Naturally, she didn't have a good face, not only refused Geng Jingzhong's apology, but also categorically rejected Geng Jingzhong's request for money and food, insisting that she was pure.??Of course there is.  "Yue Le smiled bitterly and said: "During the time you have been away, the master has issued twelve imperial decrees, each of which is more severe than the last, forcing our army to cross the river and go south to fight Wu Dog for a decisive battle.  "

    "If there is a chance of winning, even if there is a 20% to 30% certainty, we still need such a rush from the master?" Tu Hai sighed, but he was also at a loss for the current situation.

    "Prince An, you can't go on like this." Shang Shan frowned and said, "Xia Guoxiang's bastard was beaten away by that idiot Zhangtai's shit luck, and Lu Yifeng's bastard is gone. The biggest threat must be exhausting us.  , if we continue to stand still like this, without Wu Gou doing anything, the spittle stars in the court may drown us."

    "It's definitely not." Yue Le smiled even more wryly, "Because before I was drowned by the saliva star, I must have been stripped of the title of prince, relieved of all duties, and went back to study behind closed doors."

    Tu Hai and Shang Shan laughed together, but the smiles were equally bitter. In desperation, Shang Shan had no choice but to suggest: "My lord, why don't we just cross the river, the main force crosses the river to fight against Wu Dog's main force, maybe there is still a little bit left."  There is a chance, but if you don't cross the river, you don't have a chance at all."

    "But even if we cross the Yellow River, we still don't have the slightest chance." Yue Le said more helplessly: "Do you expect Lu Yifeng to be as stupid as Xia Guoxiang to give us a chance like Chizhou?"

    "That's not necessarily the case, as long as the main force of Lu Yifeng's thieves goes north to fight us, we will have a chance." Shang Shan replied.

    "What do you mean?" Yue Le asked doubtfully.

    Shang Shan and Tu Hai looked at each other, then Shang Shan coughed and said in a low voice: "My lord, Tu Tang and I brought back a thousand catties of three good explosives for you this time.  In the current situation, our only hope of victory may be the Gaojiayan in Hongze Lake."

    "You want to blow up the dam again, and get Jie Wugou's army to be buried with the Mongolian army?" Yue Le asked in a low voice: "This king is already doing this, but if the high Jiewu dog thief is not fooled, how can there be any?"  any solution?"

    "Xia Guoxiang's thieves have already retreated, and Geng Jingzhong is an idiot who can't be supported. I'm afraid it will be difficult to form a strong restraint on Lu Yifeng's thieves. Just killing Wu Gou Gao's Jiebing regiment may not be enough to change the situation of the battle." Shang Shan lowered his voice.  The voice said: "I don't want the child to be a wolf, we want to invite the prince's soldiers to take the risk, and the 120,000 army given to us by the dog thief in Lu Yifeng will be buried with us!"

    "The 120,000 army that the dog thief Lalu Yifeng gave us to be buried with?" Yue Le almost suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.

    Shang Shan nodded, and said in a low voice: "That's what we think. Now that Xia Guoxiang's bandits have retreated, the pressure on Lu Yifeng's bandits on the western front has been greatly reduced. If the main force of our southern expedition crosses the Yellow River and goes down south, we can quickly advance to Baoying and beyond.  In the area of ??Jieshou in the south, the 120,000 troops were all used as bait. With Lu Yifeng's dog thief's military habits, he must personally lead the troops to fight our army. We will fight and retreat, and lure the main force of Lu Yifeng's dog thief.  To the vicinity of Huai'an. Then, Lalu Yifeng dog thief and our 120,000 troops will die together!"

    "Are you crazy?" Yue Le exclaimed in a low voice, "In order to deal with Lu Yifeng's dog thief and part of his main force, you actually want to use our 120,000 army to die with him?"

    "The slave thinks it's worth it." Tu Hai opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "Jiangnan Wugou is headed by Lu Yifeng's thief, and internal hidden dangers and differences are also very serious. Except for Lu Yifeng's thief, there is no one else that can command the entire army to obey.  All the handsome talents, once Lu Yifeng died, Jiangnan Wugou immediately fell apart, and our army on the western front also had a chance. You know the virtues of our 120,000 army better than anyone else, even Lord Leerjinbeile  The remnants and defeated generals collected from Guangdong and Jiangxi are not as good as they are useless anyway, so it is better to use them to create opportunities for friendly troops."

    Yue Le was silent, and Shang Shan said: "My lord, in fact, it is just a way of saying that the 120,000 army and Lu Yifeng's dog thief will die together.  We need to keep a part of the Qingjiang River to protect the grain roads. Second, Huai¡¯an City, which is protected by the city, can be stationed to accommodate part of the army. Third, when we lure Lu Yifeng¡¯s dog thief to go north, we can retreat and transfer part of the army in advance. Our losses will not  It's that big."

    "In short, we have to forget about the danger of Gaojiayan, and make Lu Yifeng think that we have no intention of attacking Gaojiayan, but just want to fight him in Yangzhou Mansion." Tu Hai said in a deep voice: "As long as  Lu Yifeng's dog thief personally leads the troops to the north, and we will have a chance to fight us on the northern front. Therefore, we have no choice but to use 120,000 main forces as bait."

    Yue Le was silent for a long time, and finally hesitantly said: "Anyway, the emperor is urging me to cross the river so hard, I can't do without giving the emperor an explanation, so let's cross the river and camp at Jieshou first, as for whether to use your tricks or not  , make preparations secretly, and then decide based on the situation."
