Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1104 Transferring to Jiangxi
With Wang Yan's order, more than ten thousand troops immediately pulled out their camps, boarded ships and marched towards Jiujiang.

In the commander's tent, Wang Yan sat upright. Zhang Guangcui, a colleague of Hujieying who was controlled by the guards, was brought to the big tent by Lu Shikui. He saw Wang Yan sitting in front of the commander's desk, with a look of shame on his face.

Wang Yan squinted his eyes at him, and didn't curse at him. Zhang Guangcui was in a cold sweat, and when he knelt down, he suddenly waved his hand and said, "Go away! Please give Jin Shenghuan a message, and give him three days Let him come to Nanchang to see Gu, if it is too late, Gu will confiscate his family, all other clans!"

After speaking, Wang Yan got up and left the big tent, followed by Lu Shikui and the guards, leaving Zhang Guangcui standing in the tent dumbfounded, as if he had been possessed by a demon, and he didn't react until Wang Yan got out of the tent.

The aura exuded by Wang Yan made him lose his mind for a moment, filled with remorse.

When Du Yinxi was still in Huguang, he was Du Yinxi's subordinate. Wang Yan knew that Du Yinxi was talented and loyal to the imperial family, so after the rift with Long Wu, he kept rejecting Du Yinxi, not only pushing him out Huguang also annexed Du Yinxi's Fubiao, and Zhang Guangcui was incorporated into the Five Zhong Army at that time.

To a certain extent, Wang Yan also excludes dissidents and is jealous of the virtuous and capable, which is not a good thing.

In history, Du Yinxi can be said to be the minister with the most strategic vision and talent in Nanming.

The decisions and suggestions he made were basically correct, in stark contrast to He Tengjiao, Qu Shixu and others, but it was precisely because of his ability that Wang Yan was afraid of him, so he kept suppressing Du Yinxi.

More than four years after the recovery of Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty, Gu Yuanjing and Wanji both entered the cabinet, but Du Yinxi, who managed Hunan with great vigor, was still in the governor's seat.

After he was transferred to Jiangxi, although he was a governor, he actually took care of military and political affairs, and he managed Jiangxi quite sensibly. With the porcelain kilns in Jingdezhen, the mines in Fuzhou, and the plains around Poyang Lake and Ganjiang River, Jiangxi's agriculture and The economy has been developed.

A capable person like him is naturally attractive, so when Tang Wang's people found Zhang Guangcui through Du Yinxi's relationship, he hesitated for a while, and then fell to Tang Wang's side.

After Wang Yan left the big tent, he crossed the river with the army by boat. The Jiangxi side did not expect such a situation to happen.

Ambushing and killing Wang Yan is tantamount to rebellion, and it is classified as a secret. Only a few people in Jiangxi know about it, and most officials don't know about it.

Since the recovery of Nanjing, Jiangxi has been in a semi-independent state. The imperial army has never entered Jiangxi, and it has been more than four years.In addition, Wang Yan's inspection of Huguang this time also bypassed Jiangxi and went directly, so the Jiangxi side did not expect Wang Yan to lead troops into Jiangxi at all.

Even the king of Tang and Jin Shenghuan didn't think of this point, even if they were not secretive and the matter was exposed, Wang Yan should first think about returning to Nanjing, how could he go to Jiangxi?
Wang Yan made such a decision, and naturally he also had his considerations. If he returned to Nanjing first, he would defeat Tang and Lu's attempts to control Nanjing.Tang Wang can also return to Jiangxi and Fujian, and Lu Wang can also return to Zhejiang for a separatist regime. Daming will fall into a long-term civil war. It will take at least a year for Wang Yan to conquer the three provinces. Opportunity, this is what Wang Yan does not want to see.

Therefore, Wang Yan's plan was to use Nanjing as a bait. When Tang Fan and Lu Fan competed for Nanjing, he first forced Jiangxi to surrender, and then returned to Nanjing to let the two clans accept the reality of failure.

At this time in Jiangxi and Fujian, Wang Yan still had a strong influence, and he had placed a lot of chess pieces at the beginning, which could be used by him. If all the officials are disposed of and the regime is fighting against each other, then if Wang Yan comes to attack again, he will have to attack one city and one place, which is too troublesome.

Wang Yan suddenly changed the route back to Beijing and entered Jiangxi, which made Jiangxi's mistakes impossible.

At this time, the king of Tang hadn't rebelled openly after all, and Wang Yan was the regent prince of Ming Dynasty, No. 1 under the emperor, how could the prefect and guard of Jiujiang dare to fight against Wang Yan.

As soon as the army crossed the river, Wang Yan hooked his hands, and the two obediently went out of the city to meet.

The two entered the army, Wang Yan sat in the center, and there were many soldiers on both sides. Wang Yan directly asked the imperial court to read his appointment, and pointed out that the king of Tang and Jin Shenghuan intended to rebel, and asked whether they were rebelling with the imperial court or with the king of Tang , The two looked at the soldiers around them, already in cold sweat, how could they dare to have other thoughts, they naturally kowtowed in worship, drew a clear line with the Tang king, and expressed that they would follow the court.

Wang Yan's change of route was actually a mistake on the Jiangxi side. Jin Shenghuan brought Jiangxi's elite soldiers to Anqing, and Wang Yan entered Jiangxi. Such a big man, how dare the people below stop him.

All of a sudden, people in Jiangxi panicked, they didn't know how to stand in line, how to express their position, and no one could make the decision. Wang Yan traveled from Jiujiang to Nanchang without any obstacles.

Anqing Mansion, at the foot of Laofeng Mountain, Zhang Guangcui, led by several soldiers, quickly climbed up the mountainside.

This is the main battlefield where Jin Shenghuan set up an ambush. Soldiers who are building fortifications can be seen everywhere on the mountain. There is a fort halfway up the mountain. Hundreds of soldiers are moving artillery to the mountain to block the Yangtze River.

Countless soldiers dug pits on the ground, waiting for Wang Yan to crash into their ambush circle.

Ever since he got the news that Wang Yan was leaving from Wuchang, Jin Shenghuan was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, he was both excited and a little scared.

The excitement is because he can get rid of Wang Yan, this existence that he can't reach, this opponent who stands in front of him and cuts off his way to become king.The fear is because of Wang Yan's prestige, because of his ability, thinking about Wang Yan's deeds, if he wants to ambush such a person, he will naturally be nervous, scared and excited.

Laofeng Mountain is on the bank of the Yangtze River. An ambush here can trap 1 of Wang Yan's [-] people in the narrow strip of the river. When the army rushes down from the mountain to the river, it will surely capture Wang Yan. Killed and defeated.

Under the guidance of the soldiers, Zhang Guangcui went to the back of Laofeng Mountain, where Jin Shenghuan's handsome tent was located.

There were soldiers standing outside the big tent, Zhang Guangcui waited for a while, an officer ran out from the tent, clasped his fists and said: "General Zhang, Duzhen invites you in!"

In a trance, Zhang Guangcui bowed his hands and bowed, and entered the handsome tent, only to see Jin Shenghuan pacing back and forth in front of the handsome case, looking worried.

"At this time, how can you come here in person? What if you are exposed?" Jin Shenghuan stopped immediately when he saw him entering the account, looked at Zhang Guangcui with irritated eyes, and blamed him.

Zhang Guangcui's face was slumped, and he said with a wry smile: "Duzhen, the matter has long been exposed. The king of Chu left Nanjing to plot against you."

When Jin Shenghuan heard that Zhang Guangcui had come to Anqing, he had a bad feeling in his heart. Hearing this, his face froze at first, and then he immediately became angry.

"What?" Jin Shenghuan's eyes widened in an instant, his face was full of astonishment, and he asked repeatedly: "What did you say? Did the matter come to light? How is this possible?"

In an instant, Jin Shenghuan's face suddenly showed a look of fear, and in a hurry, he grabbed Zhang Guangcui, "How did you know, tell me!"

The key to Tang Wang's seizure of power was to kill Wang Yan. If Wang Yan didn't die, the coup d'état would fail in all likelihood. How could Jin Shenghuan not be heartbroken when he heard the news.

Seeing Jin Shenghuan's ferocious face, Zhang Guangcui said with a little panic on his face: "This is what the king of Chu said personally. He already knew that Duzhen was in Anqing, and he asked me to tell Duzhen that Duzhen should come to Nanchang to visit him within three days. otherwise···"

"What else?" Jin Shenghuan's eyes were red.

Zhang Guangcui was frightened by his momentum and stammered: "No, otherwise, the king of Chu will slaughter the three clans in Duzhen..."

Hearing this, Jin Shenghuan immediately took a few steps back, staggered, and nearly overturned the commander's case.
