However, Zhu Youjian was silent for only two days and was shocked by Lin Chunhong again: Lin Chunhong brought twenty barbarian prisoners from the sea and escorted them to the beijing!

This move caused a sensation in the entire capital. The young and young people who love to watch the fun gathered on the street to watch the prisoners. The young people's hatred for pirates is far less strong than that of Guangzhou people. Moreover, the young people have always been knowledgeable, with blond and blue eyes, black and thin Southeast Asian monkeys, and short and strong Japanese people have also seen many. Rather than watching the prisoners, they are watching Lin Chunhong, who stirred up the Ming Dynasty.

There was a lot of discussion on the street:

"Manila...Where is Manila? Is it far from Guangzhou? General Lin ran to someone else's territory to capture a few prisoners. What does it mean? Do you think the Ming Dynasty is not messy enough?"

"What? The shore of the land is the king's land! Nanyang is from the Ming Dynasty to Nanyang, and it will never allow anyone outside the Ming Dynasty to be involved! Well captured! The barbarians are not convinced by the king's transformation..."

"Hey, Lin Xiaosan is arrogant and domineering, and cannot be ordered by the court, and he can attack Westerners across the sea without authorization... Alas, it's so difficult to control..."

"Bad! Mr. Lin also praised the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, what's wrong with me!"

...

Twenty prisoners were transported from Guangzhou to the capital, which took more than a month. Lin Chunhong spent a lot of manpower and material resources to do such eye-catching things, which was a good intention.

On the one hand, Lin Chunhong used twenty living people to announce to Daming Tianxia that his strength was so strong that he could go overseas to provoke Westerners, and informed some potential opponents and not to wrongly estimate his strength.

On the other hand, Lin Chunhong tried to throw a huge rock into the dull political environment, forcing the ministers of the court to truly realize that the Ming Dynasty was by no means the center of the world, and civilizations outside the Ming Dynasty were no less than the Ming Dynasty.

As for whether the court frys or frys the twenty prisoners, Lin Chunhong didn't care at all.

To Lin Chunhong's surprise, the arrival of the twenty prisoners was too sensitive, and a stone caused a thousand waves.

The ministers in the court immediately spoke dumbfounded and looked at the prisoners in a daze, not knowing how to deal with them.

Zhu Youjian, Wen Tiren and Donglin Yumai immediately realized a serious problem: even if Jingzhou Bangtai was beaten in one go, Lin Chunhong had the strength to become independent in Guangdong and became another Zheng Zhilong, even stronger than Zheng Zhilong.

Lin Chunhong had already managed another nest without realizing it. What's the use of killing Lin Chunhong's Jingzhou nest? It would only force Lin Chunhong to rebel completely! Once Lin Chunhong and Zhou Wang faced each other north and south, Huguang and Guangdong would no longer be owned by the Ming Dynasty.

The angry Zhu Youjian completely abandoned his silent plan and immediately reprimanded Zuo Liangyu, and ordered him to stop advancing south immediately. At the same time, Zhu Youjian ordered Lu Xiangsheng to stop Zuo Liangyu from fighting with the Jingzhou army at all costs, so as not to make things uncontrollable.

After Wen Tiren learned about it, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and immediately started collecting evidence, trying to make the fact that Zuo Liangyu colluded with the Donglin Party a solid evidence, completely destroying Qian Qianyi and Qu Shisi into a situation of no return.

However, it is still unknown how to settle this matter, and Lin Chunhong's reaction is crucial. Therefore, everyone, including Zhu Youjian, focused their attention on Jingzhou and Guangzhou, and were terrified to wait for the next news.

When the imperial court was in trouble, the conflict between Jingzhou Group and Zuo Liangyu was about to break out.

Zuo Liangyu instantly gathered 30,000 troops and obtained a large amount of food, grass and military supplies. He felt extremely happy. He learned the lessons of the Battle of Donghuangzhuang and ordered Wen Yizhou to select more than 4,000 strong people from the Yijiao crowd, distribute weapons, robbed everywhere, collect food, grass and military supplies, and provide support to the elites in the front.

The destructive power of four or five thousand rioters was amazing, almost robbing Xinye and Tang County. Wen Yizhou took the opportunity to make military law against the rioters. After many days of running-in and killing, the rioters had at least some military appearance, which was no less than Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong's rioters.

What's even more fatal is that Zuo Liangyu was more attractive to the rioters under the banner of the official army. With the constant snowballing, Zuo Liangyu's team became larger and larger, with far more troops than Lin Chunyi and Dou Shiwen.

However, the situation did not seem optimistic for Zuo Liangyu. Zuo Liangyu knew very well that in order to achieve the goal of finally occupying the three places, he had to conquer Xiangyang before Zhou Wang returned to his army, otherwise there would be a strong city in front and more than 10,000 elite troops behind. No matter how you look at it, it would be the end of defeat.

What made Zuo Liangyu even more annoyed was that since entering the jurisdiction of Xiangyang Prefecture, the common people seemed to have turned from sheep into lions overnight. Under the organization of archers, they waited for opportunities to attack the looted rioters. Wen Yizhou not only lost a large amount of food, grass and military supplies, but also fled countless people.

Zuo Liangyu was extremely anxious and ordered Luo Dai and Zhang Yingyuan to lead his troops to advance quickly, trying to take advantage of the situation to capture Xiangyang and open the door to march into the fertile land of Jianghan.

At the same time, both Bangtai Group and Zhang Zhao himself were very determined to deal with it, with only one word: "Fight!" and will not give up until Zuo Liangyu is wiped out.

Zhang Zhao arrived in Xiangyang two days ago and immediately ordered the archers south of the Han River such as Xiangyang, Nanzhang, Yicheng, etc. to gather in Xiangyang City, and ordered the archers in Gucheng, Guanghua, Junzhou, Zaoyang and other places to strictly protect the people and launch a resolute attack on the robbed people. Within two days, Xiangyang City had the main force of the Tiger Roar Army, the southern archers and Dou Shiwen's archers as their wings, and the troops reached more than 20,000, and they had the capital to fight Zuo Liangyu when they left the city.

Zhang Zhao did not hesitate and immediately ordered Lin Chunyi to leave the city to face Luo Dai and Zhang Yingyuan, trying to take the initiative and defend the enemy outside the city gate.

On November 8th of the eighth year of Chongzhen, in Gongjiazui Village, the north wind whistled, the qi turned into frost, and the dripping water turned into ice. Both Zuo Liangyu and Lin Chunyi were very satisfied with Gongjiazui and used it as a battlefield.

Gongjiazui is the place where the Tang River and the Baihe River meet, and its geographical location is very important. Although it is winter moon, there is already a thin layer of ice on the surface of Tang River and Baihe River, it does not hinder the ships from walking. If Zuo Liangyu wants to attack Xiangyang on a large scale, he must seize Gongjiazui. When Lin Chunyi wants to prevent Zuo Liangyu from approaching the Xiangyang city wall, he must grasp the key point of Gongjiazui and block Zuo Liangyu's way forward.

Lin Chunyi had no intention of being polite to Zuo Liangyu. The central army was in front, with slightly behind the left and right wings. He formed a very aggressive formation and slowly approached the Zuo family army. The Hu Xiao army was full of energy and had more than a year of rest. The desire for war was very strong, and the military and political officers were even more capable of boosting morale by "a step back is home". All the soldiers were full of grudges and vowed to completely wipe out the Zuo family army and hung Zuo Liangyu's head on the head of Xiangyang to show the public!

The Zuo family army did not show any weakness. The plunder over the past few days completely got the soldiers out of the dilemma of insufficient military supplies, equipment, and morale. Zuo Liangyu even used the extremely wealthy gimmick of Xiangyang and Jingzhou to deceive the soldiers, and said: After breaking through Xiangyang, he would not be sealed for three days!

The fierce collision between the two armies is unavoidable!

In the sky, the black clouds are like lead, the north wind is howling; on the ground, the swords and swords are singing, and the drums and horns are roaring!

More than 15,000 warriors gathered in this narrow place of Gongjiazui, and the bloodiest battle was about to start. No one could tell why they were fighting. They only knew that they would insert crossbow arrows and swords and guns into the other party's body, making the other party moan under their own force and beg for mercy!

Both sides were veterans of war, and the tense before the war, and the suppressed atmosphere seemed to have no effect on them. They were like accurate machines, under the drum beats and under the command of the flag, and were forced toward the enemy step by step.

Suddenly, the rhythm of drum beats in the Tiger Roar Army changed, and the soldiers stopped. The sword and shield hands held the shield in their left hand and raised the sword in their right hand, and the blade was facing the enemy. The spearmen held the spear flat and pointed the spear head straight forward; the crossbowmen squinted their left eyes and aimed the crossbow arrow at the enemy in front of them.

Only a violent explosion was heard: "Boom...Boom..."

The Tiger Roar Army’s artillery battalion took the lead in firing!

In an instant, the artillery battalion was immediately shrouded in smoke, and countless iron balls were thrown into the sky, drew countless large arcs, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air. Immediately, when the iron ball was about to land on the ground, an explosion suddenly occurred, pouring the dead shrapnel onto the head of Zuo Jiajun.

Flowering bullet!

The Zuo family army had not been hit by artillery shells. When the shells flew over, the veterans of the hundred battles were not panicked at all. For them, the threat of the scrambled arrows far exceeded that of the shells. However, as they expected, the shells emitted by the Tiger Roar Army were far from comparable to iron balls jumping around!

In an instant, the more urgent shelling overturned the Zuo family army, and countless soldiers fell to the ground, shouting and crying, and were filled with grief...

The formation of the Zuo Family Army was messed up and countless vacancies appeared. In the vacancy, the land was almost black with explosives, and there were broken limbs and broken legs everywhere, and internal organs could hardly be found!

Although the soldiers were as accurate as machines, they were not machines after all, and they also had fears and their own feelings. Inevitably, the morale of the Zuo family army was affected. The soldiers were all stuck in their way, looking at the low-level officers, looking forward to the order to retreat.

Zuo Liangyu's red face almost turned purple. He raised the spear in his hand and shouted: "Roar up! Quickly! Go..."

After the soldiers received the order, they were as if they were freed from the artillery fire, shouting "Roar..." and rushed forward like lightning, as if this was the only way to avoid the artillery fire.

The instinctive reaction of the soldier was correct. The rapid charge immediately stopped the artillery fire. The howling north wind immediately blew the smoke clean. Behind the Tiger Roaring Army, more than 20 black holes were exposed.

The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!

How could Lin Chunyi, who had been fighting for many years, not understand this truth? Lin Chunyi waved his hand and uttered two words in a low voice: "Charge!"

In an instant, the war drums of the Tiger Roar Army suddenly changed their rhythm, and a roar like thunder broke out in the army: "Run..."

Two torrents approached quickly... approached, and then approached... The sound of steel hitting suddenly sounded, and the two torrents finally collided together.
Chapter completed!
