Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 360 Gao Jie's Madness

In fact, Chu Yu never hesitated to win over Gao Jie's subordinates.

Whether it is gold, silver, or official positions, a lot of relaxation has been made.

As for the commander-in-chief alone, there are three or four of them, and there are more than ten generals and guerrillas. If there is a glimmer of hope, he will contact them cautiously.

Try not to disturb Gao Jie.

In fact, Gao Jie didn't have the same thoughts.

He has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses under his command, but his management is very rough. He is only under the control of the military leader, and the rest can only be used to show his presence when he pays and pays weapons.

To put it bluntly, he is a big army leader, a warlord, and he has no idea of ​​farming.

Now I am still dreaming of the spring and autumn dream of being both right and left.

This situation happened to be the time for Jin Yiwei to show his skills.

At the same time, a large amount of grain and grass were transported to Luzhou through Chaohu Lake.

Here, the Chongbu Battalion, Cavalry Battalion, Mingwang Battalion, Mingyuan Battalion, Mingyi Battalion, etc. have gathered,
The soldiers and horses exceeded [-].

That is to say, except for the pro-barracks and the firearms camp, all the other people who set out from Xiangyang have gathered here.

However, King Yu also considered the situation in the Huaihe River area, so after careful consideration, he appointed Li Jingwu as the ruler of the Yellow River and Huaihe River, and was responsible for the defense line of the entire Huaihe River area.

At this time, the title of the first large-scale commanding army appeared, although it was only temporary, it was still eye-catching.

"Everyone!"

Standing opposite the map, Li Jingwu is majestic and in high spirits:

"Jin Yiwei has already found out that although there are 20 people in Xuzhou, they are fighting on their own. In just a few months, it is difficult for Gao Jie to gather them together."

"So, in terms of military strength, we are at a disadvantage, but in fact, we are at an advantage."

"In the words of His Majesty, I have the advantage, and I must win this battle."

The morale was boosted as usual, and the audience was very generous, applauding and cheering.

However, Prime Minister Hui Deng raised his head and asked, "Li Tongzhi, how many merits can we achieve in this battle?"

Everyone looked up one after another, their faces full of expectation.

Although the Sir is attractive, his achievements are not bad, and the land is much more valuable.

"After discussions between His Majesty and the cabinet, the merits of this battle are five points!"

"Woohoo, long live Your Majesty—"

Hearing this, the generals began to cheer.

In this way, the final merit is five points, and the first merit is eight points. According to the merit system, the general has [-]% of the total merit of the army under his command.

In other words, even the least person can have [-] points of merit, which is [-] mu of land.

If the discounted titles are added, the emperor's treatment of everyone is not bad.

After the morale soared, Li Jingwu began to say:

"It's about [-] miles from Luzhou to Xuzhou, and [-]% of it is plain, so this battle must be done quickly and quickly, and don't give the Manchus a chance."

"Similarly, don't give Gao Jie a chance to react."

"The army practices running every day, and this is the time to perform!"

However, considering that the distance is really not close, even if the army reaches Xuzhou, it will be at the end of its strength.

Therefore, Li Jingwu began to build Luzhou City with great fanfare, despising Gao Jie's heart, but secretly kept collecting mules and horses as a substitute for transportation.

Even if you work hard, you won't have thousands of horses in a few days, so you can only drag the luggage.

Used to using ships, suddenly marching on land, the army felt uncomfortable.

The speed of the luggage was too slow, which dragged down the marching speed, so that it was only forty or fifty miles a day, which was far worse than the three or four hundred miles a day on the Yangtze River.

However, for Li Jingwu, there are too many challenges in unifying the [-] army.

The running-in of the armies, the arrangement of food and grass, the daily itinerary, the setting up of camps, etc., can be said to be a lot of tests.

"However, this is what His Majesty expects from me!"

After suffering all the way, Li Jingwu finally saw what a commander in chief is.

Leading a battalion is just a general, but handsome, it is an overall plan, hard work, and it is also very helpful for human growth.

Thinking of His Majesty's intentions, Li Jingwu was shocked:
"With Gao Jie eliminated, we can sit on the same side as Chen Yongfu and You Shiwei."

In a blink of an eye, the army marched to Suzhou.

At this moment, even though Gao Jie was deaf, he sensed that something was wrong, so he quickly sent someone to inquire:

"You and I are both Ming soldiers, why do you occupy my place?"

Li Jingwu said calmly: "This battle is for the northern expedition to Shandong, to consolidate the Huaihai line of defense, and to defend Nanjing. Therefore, the army is going north, and Yinghou should not panic."

In Xuzhou, Gao Jie was furious:
"Is this Li Jingwu a fool?"

With a roar, he spread out on the bed, his chest heaved continuously, and his whole body seemed to be emitting heat.

On the side, Mrs. Xing kept comforting him, and said with relief: "Why don't you vote in Manqing, it seems that King Yu is really heartless."

Gao Jie "Teng" stood up, his face was full of anger, his eyes were full of sternness and ambition:

"There are tens of thousands of people in the area, and they dare to go north to Xuzhou. Does he eat porridge when he is Lao Tzu Gao Jie?"

As he spoke, he put his hands on Xing's shoulders, and said seriously:

"I'm anti-mother, I defeated these people, and went directly to the south to sit in the Jinluan Palace. Be an emperor, and you can also be a queen for fun!"

Although Xing's mind was fluttering, she immediately reacted and turned pale with shock: "Are you crazy?"

"That's the emperor, the emperor of Ming Dynasty!"

"I'm not crazy!"

Gao Jie raised his brows, as if he had figured out something, his face was full of pride:

"King Yu dared to go to Nanjing with only a few tens of thousands of people, but with 200,000 people under my command, one mouthful of spit from one person is enough to drown him."

As he said that, he seemed to be pondering: "I look at King Yu, it's like I'm lucky. How can a yellow-haired boy have so much strength in just a few years?"

"It's all taking advantage of the loopholes, yes, taking advantage of the loopholes!"

At this moment, Gao Jie had a complete epiphany.

Rather than entrusting your life to others, it is better to control it yourself.

"Husband, let's go to Beijing!" Xing said anxiously.

"Go to Beijing? Imprisoned like Liu Liangzuo?"

Gao Jie said angrily: "You pretend I haven't thought about it? But do people live that kind of life?"

Xing wanted to persuade him again, but Gao Jie waved his hand directly and said:
"At this point, the arrow is already on the string, and I have to shoot it. Today, I will let the emperor of Nanjing, the former King Yu, see how capable I am, Gao Jie."

With Gao Jie's order, the entire city of Xuzhou fell into a blockade.

At this chaotic moment, an arrest was also going on, and the target was the search department who had helped him.

It's a pity that Chu Yu and others knew about the situation a long time ago and hid it deeply.

"Sure enough, it's wolf ambition."

Chu Yu put on make-up to look like an old man, and while coughing, tremblingly looked at the thieves walking around the streets.

Master Wang was only in Suzhou, and Gao Jie couldn't wait to jump back, which shows that he has never returned.
