"Yes, yes, although from the current point of view, the Great Yan Army wants the entire Jiangbei territory, but I am afraid that the Great Yan Army will cross the river south and attack my Yingtian City!"

  "Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, just to be conservative, leave Yingtian City and Yingtian Mansion these days!"

  "That's right, according to the old man's opinion, our entire Nanzhili can't be guaranteed! It's better, starting today, the whole family will move to the south! Go to Fujian, or go to Guangdong and Guangxi!!"

  "It really doesn't work, let's escape to Nanyang!!"

  ""

  The gentry of Yingtiancheng were greatly frightened by the bombardment of Yingtiancheng by the Great Yan Army. They were panicked, panting and restless, and they all made preparations to flee with their clans.

  It can be said that the Great Yan Army's bombardment of Yingtiancheng almost scared them to death!

Chapter [-] Ma Shiying was shocked and frightened the gentry of Fengyang Mansion

  Jiangbei, Fengyang House.

  "Report!!"

  "Governor Ma is bad, bad!"

  "The main force of the Suzaku Corps of the Great Yan Army is heading south, following the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and heading directly to Yangzhou Prefecture. The way is unstoppable, and the front is extremely prosperous!"

  "The whole army of Yangzhou Prefecture was destroyed, the city of Yangzhou Prefecture fell, and the whole territory of Yangzhou Prefecture fell!"

  "All the gentry in Yangzhou Prefecture, because they were extremely tenacious in resisting the Dayan Army, were killed by the Dayan Army. In front of the people of the city, they slaughtered all the gentry on the spot and slaughtered them wildly!!"

  The messengers rushed into the Jiangbei Governor's Mansion, panic-stricken, and reported to the Jiangbei Governor Ma Shiying who had fled back to Fengyang Mansion.

  "what!"

  "How can the Great Yan Army move so fast!"

  When Ma Shiying heard this, she panicked and shouted, her face full of disbelief.

  Because, it was too fast, and it caught him off guard, which was incredible.

  He just abandoned the city and fled, ran out of Huaian Mansion, and returned to Fengyang Mansion.

  On the back foot, the Dayan Army chased after him without saying a word.

  This speed was so fast that he couldn't react at all! Especially when escaping from Huai'an Mansion, he still thought about whether to flee to Yangzhou Mansion.

  In the end, I thought that Yangzhou Mansion was too close to Yingtian Mansion. He abandoned Huai'an Mansion, fled, and lost the responsibility of the Yellow River defense line. ——Fengyang Mansion.

  However, he never imagined that the movement of the Suzaku Corps of the Great Yan Army would be so fast! The Yangzhou Mansion was actually lost in just a few days! This is Yangzhou Mansion! The world-famous Yangzhou Mansion Ah, the power of the gentry in Yangzhou is terrifyingly strong.

  Notoriously rich in grain and silver.

  In this era, if you have food and money, it means strength and strength, you can recruit countless young men and pull out a large number of troops.

  However, the Yangzhou Mansion, which was so powerful and had such a profound foundation, had almost no resistance, and was pushed horizontally by the Suzaku Corps of the Great Yan Army.

  The most terrifying thing is that almost all the gentry in Yangzhou Prefecture were slaughtered! The gentry in Yangzhou has become a thing of the past! How can this not shock Ma Shiying, even shocking! Shocked by the strength of the Great Yan Army full of terror.

  At the same time, he secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately he ran fast, otherwise once the Da Yan army blocked his way, he, the governor of Jiangbei, would have left his life in Huai'an City! "That's right, Governor Ma! "

  The messenger seemed to have remembered something again, and said with an embarrassed expression: "The main force of the Suzaku Corps of the Dayan Army, after occupying Yangzhou Prefecture, swept across all the prefectures and counties in the Jiangbei of Yingtian Prefecture, across the river from Yingtian City.

  They even dispatched gunboats to launch a bombardment in response to Tiancheng, causing the imperial court to tremble!"

  "Now the imperial court has dispatched several groups of people to scold you, Governor Ma!"

  "It seems that Governor Ma, if you are on the battlefield, there will be no more.

  I'm afraid the court will hold you accountable!"

  When Ma Shiying heard this, she immediately covered her head and couldn't stop.

  In my heart, I secretly scolded the Great Yan Army for being shameless! The Great Yan Army was clearly bombarding Yingtian City, and asked the court to put pressure on him, Ma Shiying, and let him start a decisive battle with the Great Yan Army! Even if Ma Shiying fought for his old life, he would not be able to defeat the Great Yan Army!

  The Suzaku Corps of the army started a decisive battle, and even if they were able to defend Fengyang Mansion, Ma Shiying would have to thank God and bow down to the gods and Buddhas in the sky.

  Immediately, he waved his hand with a headache and said, "Find any reason, and send the court people away!"

  Just kidding, he Ma Shiying is not stupid.

  What kind of achievements do you need at such a time! The most important thing is to be able to save your own life and the army under your command! The territory is second! As long as the army under his command is there, Ma Shiying will always be Governor Ma!" Governor Ma, Fengyang The gentlemen of the government have asked to see you!"

  At this time, the ministry around him reported to Ma Shiying.

  When Ma Shiying heard this, he suddenly realized that it was obvious that the gentry of Fengyang Mansion had heard about the tragic situation of the gentry of Yangzhou Mansion, and they all became anxious.

  Unlike the imperial court, he, Ma Shiying, can ignore the imperial court's orders, and can even take the imperial court's words as farts.

  But the gentry of Fengyang Mansion, he must meet.

  Where did the soldiers, food, weapons and equipment, gold, silver and jewelry under his command come from? They didn't come from the Fengyang mansion gentry! This is his Ma Shiying's gold master, he must be coaxed! Immediately cleaned up and ordered Nodding: "Let them go to the hall to wait for a day or two, and this official will arrive later!"

  After simply packing up one or two, he went straight to the hall of the Governor's Palace.

  As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw hundreds of Fengyang House gentry swarming towards him.

  Each of these Fengyang Mansion gentlemen showed panic and anxiety on their faces.

  Obviously, they were all frightened by the tragic experience of the gentry in Yangzhou, and all of a sudden, one by one, the six gods rose up.

  Seeing Ma Shiying, it was as if he had found the backbone, and they all complained and asked for advice.

  "Governor Ma, you are here"

  "That's great, Governor Ma, please tell me, whether our Fengyang Mansion can hold it!"

  "Yeah, Yangzhou Prefecture fell, the gentry of the whole house were slaughtered and slaughtered, and they were completely removed from their names, shaking the entire Jiangbei!!"

  "I heard that the gentry of Yangzhou Prefecture were slaughtered because they wanted to defend the city of Yangzhou Prefecture and resisted stubbornly, so they were killed by the Dayan Army!"

  "What should we do? Can our Fengyang Mansion be able to hold on to me and wait for the Fengyang Mansion gentry, won't it end up like the Yangzhou Mansion gentry?"

  "The Governor"

  The gentry of Fengyang Mansion were really panicked, their faces were pale with fright, they were panic-stricken and uneasy, for fear that they would end up with the gentry of Yangzhou Mansion.

  Now they are very entangled, not willing to give up their own interests and generational privileges, but also do not want to end up with the destruction of the whole family, complete removal from the name, or even ruin.

  I want to keep it, but I don't dare to keep it.

  The entanglement is not good! The lesson of the tragic expulsion of the gentry in Yangzhou Prefecture can be said to have made them deeply aware of the cruelty of the Dayan Army! It has made them deeply aware of the reality! The gentry they are proud of, in front of the Dayan Army, They are worthless! Almost all their fantasies have been shattered! Dayan is not the same as those dynasties in the past, and will still hold them! This reality makes them uncomfortable and unacceptable, and at the same time they are full of confusion about the future. It was utter panic.

  It doesn't matter if the land and wealth are not there! The privileges of the generations are gone, and even the favor of the gentry is gone! How can they accept this! They can't accept it at all!! The news from the Yangzhou government has completely put them, Fengyang The gentlemen of the government, I am terrified! Feilu reminds you: three things to read: collect, recommend, and divide

Chapter [-] The Transformation of Jiangbei Gentry

  Seeing these gentlemen of Fengyang Mansion, they were not lightly frightened, their hearts were panicked, and they looked terrified, Ma Shiying secretly laughed in his heart, these people also knew that they were afraid, but after smiling, the pressure in his heart was also enormous.

  The Great Yan Army, that's not to be provoked! Since the Battle of Huaibei, the entire army was destroyed and fled.

  He was cast into the shadows by the Great Yan Army! The elder brother did not laugh at the second brother, the gentlemen were afraid and frightened, and he, Ma Shiying, was also afraid of the Great Yan Army to death.

  However, if you are afraid of being afraid, you still have to remain calm on the surface.

  These gentlemen of Fengyang Mansion, who are his big money lords, still have to be appeased, so that they can deceive more money and soldiers.

  Oh, no! How can this be called cheating! This is called pulling investment! The gentlemen contribute money and food, and Ma Shiying contributes! This is cooperation, this is a win-win situation: "Don't panic, don't panic!!"

  A calm smile appeared on Ma Shiying's face, soothing the Fengyang mansion gentry: "The battle is still to be fought, if you don't fight a fight and defend Fengyang mansion, you will not be reconciled, including Ma, you will also Very unhappy!"

  "However, fighting and defending is also very particular!"

  "The gentry of Yangzhou Prefecture, that is a lesson from the past. We must learn from it and fight flexibly! Instead of sticking to it, holding the idea of ​​​​burning everything!"

  "Everyone, the Great Yan Army is not like other armies, their combat effectiveness is strong, and their artillery is extremely terrifying.

  We can't burn with them at all!!"

  "The Yangzhou Fu Army has set an example. The artillery of the Dayan Army directly destroyed the four walls of Yangzhou Fucheng, and did not give the opportunity to defend it desperately!"

  "So I wait, don't be so rigid, you must never learn from the Yangzhou government army!"

  "I'm going to be flexible and act according to chance!"

  "If you can keep the rules, you can withdraw if you can't!"

  "Everyone must be prepared with both hands, desperately and with the preparation of withdrawal and transfer!"

  "In this way, whether it is a defeat or a victory, I will be invincible, and I will not be reduced to the miserable end of the Yangzhou gentry!"

  Ma Shiying's remarks immediately agitated the gentlemen of Fengyang Mansion, their panic calmed down, and their eyes lit up.

  Be prepared with both hands! Whether you lose or win, you are invincible! "Wonderful, wonderful! This is really wonderful!!"

  "Hahaha, this is a good idea. We should defend it, but we must retreat if we should retreat. A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall!"

  "Governor Ma is so right, as long as I stay away and prepare both hands, even if the entire front line is destroyed, then I can save my life and my family!!"

  "Hahaha, then I don't need to worry about waiting!"

  "There is no need to worry about anything at all! Leave the green hills without worrying about no firewood!!"

  "Yeah, at most I lost my territory! But when I have money, food and troops, the territory is gone, so I can go grab it!!"

  "Wonderful, wonderful, it's still the wise Governor Ma!!""

  The gentlemen relaxed one after another, and laughed out loud, with smiles all over their faces.

  Even more relaxed, Shiying began to increase the supply of money, grain, and soldiers! Although the preparations for the fall of Fengyang Mansion and the defeat of the frontline army were always prepared, the money and grain for the troops and horses should still be provided! In case! Fengyang The mansion has been defended! That's not a profit! Seeing the gentlemen of Fengyang mansion, Ma Shiying couldn't help but smile.

  It's just that he knew very well in his heart that the reason why the gentlemen changed so quickly was because the expectations in their hearts had changed.

  Before, they wanted to keep everything.

  However, the tragic situation of the gentry in Yangzhou Prefecture made them wake up one after another. If they wanted to save everything, they would lose everything, and they couldn't save a single one! Instead, they let go of their psychological expectations and prepared for failure, which made them feel much better.

  If you fail, that's normal.

  If you win, that's even better! As long as you can escape with your life! After Ma Shiying appeased a famous Fengyang mansion gentry, a strange scene soon appeared in the entire Fengyang mansion.

  The gentlemen of Fengyang Mansion were frantically transporting money, grain and soldiers to the front line, actively preparing for the battle.

  On the other side, they are frantically withdrawing their clansmen, relocating their entire clan, and retreating to the rear.
