Chapter 217 Result If there were no soldiers, then if the other side had sent a fleet to fight across the canal when the warships were bombarding the shore just now, wouldn't everyone have been caught?
You know, the canal is not a big river, no matter how wide the water is.
Limited, if Meng Yuan's navy rushed up in a small boat to engage in a boarding battle, the warship with gunners and oarsmen alone would not be able to stop the opponent's fierce attack.
"Stick to the shore, stick to the shore, with the First Army behind you, just in case."
At this time, Lu Zeng finally understood that the warship was not 100% safe.
Pushing Zhu Qiang, he ordered the other party to sail the fleet to the shore.
Zhu Qiang knew that the old master was timid.
Seeing that the overall situation on the shore was decided, he moved the flagship near the command platform, set up the pedals, and sent the old master to land.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Lu Luzeng grabbed a soldier and asked angrily: "Where is the governor?
Why is your governor not on the command platform?
Where has he gone?
Take me over to find him."
"Our Commander-in-Chief" the soldier was stunned, then smiled and supported the old master's arm, "The Commander-in-Chief has gone to the northeast, and General Manager Mao has something to do with him.
Please be careful where you step, the ground is slippery."
"What nonsense?
The commander of the first army is not in charge of the central army, so he is running around everywhere."
Old Master Lu saw that nothing was right, and complained with his beard raised.
"What did Mao Gui want to do with him?
How many soldiers did you bring there?"
"I just took a group of soldiers and sent the others out to chase the King of Zhennan."
The soldiers thought for a while and responded cautiously.
"Why, do you always think something will happen?"
"Nonsense, nonsense!"
Lu Zeng was so angry that he continued to stamp his feet hard.
Mao Gui, the general manager of Mengcheng, was undoubtedly a loyal man, but it was not a rational move for Zhu Bayi to take only ten soldiers to his army just after the war.
If someone under Mao Gui's command suddenly gets some bad thoughts, gets angry, and then puts the blame on the remaining enemy, Zhu Ba11 will die inexplicably.
"Mao Gui said that it was Wang Xuan, a member of the Yellow Army, who wanted to talk to our Governor Zhu in front of the formation.
He blocked the Yellow Army's retreat.
Wang Xuan might have to surrender, and he had to discuss the terms with our Governor Zhu in person."
Bing was also made nervous by Lu Zeng, frowned, and responded quickly.
"Then he can't just bring ten people."
The more he listened, the more anxious he became.
He pushed a handful of soldiers and ordered loudly, "Go quickly and find all the people you can see nearby.
I will take them to pick them up.
Governor.
Treating others with sincerity is not seeking death."
As the commander of the first army and the judge of Huaidong Road, he had the power to mobilize a battalion of soldiers and horses without asking for instructions.
The soldier was anxious when he heard what he said, and hurriedly ran to find helpers.
After a while, a soldier from the left-behind Chinese army responsible for protecting all civilian staff was brought over.
Behind them were several signal soldiers, order soldiers, and Cai Hao who had just bandaged their wounds.
They all looked at Lu Zeng eagerly, with anxious faces on their faces.
At this moment, Lu Luzeng felt a little calmer again.
He waved his arms to everyone and said loudly, "Just go with me in the private company.
The others can do whatever they need to do.
I just have some urgent matters that I need to discuss with the governor.

There are broken soldiers everywhere on the battlefield, so I need to bring some We are just protecting people along the way.
Please disperse quickly.
No one is allowed to think nonsense, let alone chew the truth."
This statement sounds reasonable.
The expressions on everyone's faces immediately relaxed a lot, and they all answered yes and bowed to accept the order.
Lu Luzeng took a deep breath and stabilized his mind.
He rushed to the northeast of the battlefield with a company of soldiers, ready to be Fan Kuai at the Hongmen Banquet with his old age.
However, before he could reach the place, Zhu Bayi and Mao Gui had already returned, chatting and laughing, with a tall and fat man following him, like a moving mountain of meat.
Every step he took The ground shook under his feet.
"Master Lu wants to follow the example of Lao Huang Zhonghu, but you are here a little late.
The battle here is already over."
Mao Gui was a shrewd man.
One look at Lu Zeng and the company of soldiers behind him, and he knew why the other party was here.
Come, shake your head, smile and joke.
"I, I am a civil servant, how dare you compete with a big man asking for prisoners of war?"
Lu Zeng blushed when he was asked, and responded with a forced smile, "I was just afraid that there were too many soldiers on the battlefield, and I made a mistake, so I shouted specifically.
A team of personal soldiers accompanied him."
Note 1.
"Rebellious soldiers."
Mao Gui glanced at Lu Luzeng and continued to sneer and shake his head, "Then you are worrying for nothing.
I haven't started fighting here at all.
How could there be any rebel soldiers?"
"There's no fight."
Lu Luzeng was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed that the ground under his feet was extremely clean, without even a trace of blood.
Obviously, during the fierce battle between the Red Scarf Army and the Meng Yuan troops, the Yellow Army sat on the sidelines and had no substantive contact with Mao Gui's troops.
In the midst of surprise, the fat man who was following Zhu Bayi took a few steps forward and saluted him deeply, "The guilty general Wang Xuan has met Lu Changshi.
I have admired Changshi's name for a long time, and today I can see him.
He is really a Sansheng."
Fortunately."
"You are Wang Xuan, Huang Jun's Ten Thousand Households Wang Xuan?"
Although he had expected it in advance, Lu Zeng was still startled, took a few steps back and asked loudly.
"It is the guilty general."
The fat man Wang Xuan raised his head and responded with a blushing face, "Master, don't mention the four words "Huang Jun Ten Thousand Households" again.
The guilty general was ignorant at the time and always thought that if he became an official of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasty, he would become a Master.
Unexpectedly, even if you are a member of the Ten Thousand Households, you will still be affected by them.
Therefore, the guilty general has been waiting for an opportunity to rebel against them.
Today, General Manager Zhu, General Mao and you finally came."
He is worthy of being an official for many years.
In a few words, he explained why he wanted to surrender without a fight.
He also complimented Zhu Bayi, Mao Gui and Lu Luzeng.
The service is watertight.
But Lu Luzeng was taken aback again, his dim eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "You, you mean you want to defect to my governor?"
"Exactly."
Wang Xuan cupped his hands and responded seriously, "The general has a brother named Wang Kerou who is not up to par.
He is already in the account of the general manager.

Therefore, the general has also moved his mind and wants to join him. , relying on the general manager's wing, I hope you will be overestimating your ability."
After saying that, he turned around again and saluted Mao Gui deeply, "The guilty general only has this little thought, I hope Manager Mao will make it happen."
"Whatever is not possible, you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light.
Mao is very happy."
Although Mao Gui felt a little sour in his heart, he would not argue with Zhu Bashi about it.
Dadu waved his hand and responded with a smile.
As for me or Manager Zhu, aren't they all the same?
In short, if you can stand up and fight against the imperial court, you are a good man.
Mao will be your friend."
"Thank you, General Manager Mao, for the promotion.
Wang, I am willing to fight side by side with General Manager Mao for the rest of my life."
The stone in Wang Xuan's heart finally fell to the ground, and he bowed again, saying with emotion.
"If you're polite, there's no need to say more.
From now on, you and I will try our best to kill thieves."
Mao Gui nodded with a smile and responded loudly.
Immediately, he shook his head again and said with a wry smile: "Actually, except for Manager Zhu, no one else may be able to accept you at the moment.
There are more than 20,000 brothers, even if you are asked to prepare your own weapons and armor, and the food for more than 20,000 mouths, it is not enough."
It’s not a small number.
At least, Mao’s mere Mengcheng can’t afford so many troops.”
"General, the general still has some military rations in his hands.
Weapons, arrows and armor are also quite sufficient."
Wang Xuan heard this and quickly explained loudly.
"You don't need a general manager to raise food.
You can raise enough food by yourself when you return to the countryside."
"I was joking with you just now."
Seeing that this person was so anxious that sweat was pouring from his forehead, Mao Gui couldn't bear it.
He smiled and patted the other person's shoulder, loudly comforting him, "Besides, since you voted for Manager Zhu, he won't Then you are allowed to go to the countryside to raise your own wages.
He is a man who can make a lot of money if he comes up with any idea.
"That's right, General.
I've heard about it a long time ago.
Now Huai'an City is so rich that you can pick up gold everywhere."
Wang Xuan staggered when he was slapped, grinned, and responded with a smile.
"The matter of food and salary can be settled directly with Lu Changshi.
As we just agreed, before crossing the river, the food and salary will be equal to the Huai'an Army standard.
When crossing the river, Zhu will give you three more months of food and salary."
Knowing that this person was still not at ease, Zhu Bayi quickly took over the conversation and reiterated with a smile.
Although Wang Xuan's official position was only ten thousand households, the number of soldiers under his command, including the old, weak, sick and disabled, totaled twenty thousand.
If they were all incorporated into the Huai'an military system at one go, it would definitely have a huge impact on the original six armies.
And it will be difficult to make the surrendering generals feel at ease if they remove the bad and keep the good.
So let's just be generous to the end, deal with it the same way as Zhang Shicheng and Wang Kerou, and let him take this team to Jiangnan to develop.
Anyway, after swallowing Gaoyou and Yangzhou in one gulp, it will take a long time for the Huai'an army to digest the results of the victory.
Instead of guarding against attacks from the north and the south by the Mongolian and Yuan court every day, it would be better to let Wang Xuan, Zhang Shicheng, Wang Kerou and others cross the river first, and fight the south of the Yangtze River with beacon smoke everywhere.
The imperial army in the south was so exhausted that it had no time to come north to cause chaos for everyone.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xuan refused to cooperate.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly stopped and bowed his hands to Zhu Bayi, "General manager, I have a merciless request.

I hope the manager can agree to it."
"After all, as long as what you say makes sense, there's nothing that can't be discussed."
Zhu Bayi's brows jumped slightly and he nodded with a smile.
"The general thought about it carefully just now and doesn't want to cross the Yangtze River anymore."
Wang Xuan hesitated for a moment and continued to speak loudly, "When things happen in Yangzhou, the general wants to ask the general manager for a command arrow and take his brothers across the Yellow River.
There is something in the south of the Yangtze River.
Zhang Jiushi and Wang Kerou are not short of a junior general.
However, no one in Hebei and Shandong has raised the flag of rebellion.
The junior general is willing to take the first step for the general manager to seize the sacred land there to prevent the imperial court from continuing to conquer it.
