The four of them finalized Henan's response plan and turned their attention to Jiangnan and Nanyang. After the plan was decided, the fish belly was exposed to the east.

Lin Chunhong stretched his waist and was about to sneak into the quilt, but Zhou Feng sat up from the quilt, with his sleepy eyes open and said, "It's over! Are you going to Wuchang today? I finally ran to Fangcheng and I've been here for only two days and I'm about to be thrown off by you."

Lin Chunhong stepped forward and took off the silk quilt, pinched Zhou Feng's white and smooth thighs, and smiled and said, "You are smart and you can clearly touch my itinerary. But, your eyes are always staring at me, why don't you stare at yourself more?"

Zhou Feng was puzzled and asked, "Looking at me? What else can I make you dissatisfied?"

Lin Chunhong laughed and said nothing, just undressed and untied her belt, jumped onto the bed, and pressed Zhou Feng down onto the bed. Zhou Feng was shocked and kicked Lin Chunhong with his legs, saying, "Speak quickly, what do you mean that I don't stare at myself?"

Lin Chunhong hugged Zhou Feng tightly, enjoying her soft and smooth body, and said, "Would you like to go to Wuchang with me?"

Zhou Feng was shocked and asked, "Is there any change in Shanxi?"

"What can happen? Shanxi is quiet but not moving now. You are the mistress of Jingzhou and your identity is extraordinary. If you run to Shanxi rashly and ask the relevant people to make some inexplicable guesses, then something big will be wrong."

Zhou Feng was secretly happy when he heard the word "Miss Mother", but he couldn't guess why Shanxi is quiet and not moving now, and he was too lazy to care about it. He just frowned and said, "The trip to Shanxi has been planned for a long time. I gave up this time. I don't know when I will delay it."

Lin Chunhong yawned and said vaguely: "If you are a mere wool workshop, just be late, it will not affect the overall situation. If you solve the Anqing incident, then it will be the real birds flying..."

Zhou Feng complained: "You men don't know what they think every day, and they cover up everything they say. They keep half of them, making people confused. They say them happily, aren't it more refreshing?"

After Zhou Feng finished speaking for a long time, Lin Chunhong didn't react. When he turned around, he found that Lin Chunhong's eyes were closed and he had fallen asleep. Zhou Feng sighed and helped Lin Chunhong press the quilt. Then he curled tightly in Lin Chunhong's arms, like an obedient cat.

Not to mention that after Lin Chunhong handed over the Central Plains camp to Lin Chunyi and Lu Shiming, he immediately went south to Wuchang. And after Shi Kefa transported thirty-two heavy artillery to Anqing, he concentrated all his manpower and material resources to speed up the construction of the fort.

With the full support of Zheng Zhilong, the turret was built very quickly and it could be completed in just half a month.

There are water on all sides of Anqing, with Shimen Lake to the west, Yangtze River to the south, Baize Lake to the east, and Jixian Pass in the north, Qianshan and Tongcheng. Therefore, in order to prevent the enemy from attacking Anqing by land, Jixian Pass is a pass that must be guarded.

There is also Tongyang as the throat of Anqing. If Tongyang is in hand, the food and supplies can be easily entered into Neihu through Tongyang and connect with the city to defend.

Shi Kefa had only more than 5,000 troops in his hand, and even the city walls of Anqing were difficult to stand full, let alone Jixian Pass and Tongyang. Shi Kefa was worried and couldn't help but say to Du Yinxi:

"The PILI Army has more than 6,000 people, and their troops are carrying muskets. If they are in an array, their attack power is not comparable to that of crossbows. Moreover, there are at least 50 PILI cannons in the army. If they are fired with all their strength, they can fire four or five thousand shells in a quarter of an hour. Both Jixian Pass and Anqing City Wall are difficult to resist, so what if they do?"

When Du Yinxi heard this, he was secretly happy that although Shi Kefa had insufficient opportunity and lacked political skills, he was rare to be familiar with military affairs and was very pragmatic, and could be regarded as a qualified commander. Du Yinxi replied: "Yinxi once heard that after the flowering bullets in the Jingzhou army were fired, it exploded in the air, and the broken objects flew in four radius, and there was no physiological condition. Therefore, when the Jingzhou army fired shells, there was no other way except to avoid them. The army could dig caves everywhere. When the shelling was fired, soldiers could enter the caves to hide, and there was much less casualties."

Shi Kefa asked in confusion: "In this way, wouldn't the wall of Jixian Pass or Anqing's city wall be given up in vain?"

Du Yinxi said: "Sir, this is impossible. The Pili Army is conducive to long-distance battles. Once it gets closer, although the muskets are bayonets, they are definitely not enemies with long spears or big swords. Therefore, giving up the city walls also means luring the enemy into the depths."

Shi Kefa nodded and agreed. Then, he said worriedly: "The five thousand troops are still too small. No matter what tricks are used in front of the Pili Army, they cannot stir up the storm. I don't know where Longping Hou was going. With the support of Longping Hou, Anqing can be considered as solid."

Du Yinxi sneered: "If Anqing really makes a fight to the point of war, it will probably not be a good thing for the court and Jingzhou. In this game, there is only one word for power. Taking advantage of Lin Chunhong's still in Henan and using the thunderous momentum to force Lin Chunhong to make concessions. Longping Hou was slow to move along the way, how could he talk about creating momentum? He also asked the Lord to write a letter to urge Longping Hou to move quickly."

Shi Kefa realized the truth, and finally sighed deeply and said, "Mr. Zhongyan said very much. The Ming Dynasty court was forced by bandits and real power to this point. It was absolutely depressing. If he could put a shackle on Lin Chunhong in Anqing, what would it be if he lost his official hat? I was afraid that Lin Chunhong would bet on his own and attacked his troops. Yang Ge Lao's plan was not only in vain, but also caused immeasurable losses to the court."

Shi Kefa's tone was so sad that Du Yinxi felt horrified. After pondering for a long time, he mustered up the courage and said, "There is a saying that Yinxi will not be happy if he doesn't speak up, and I hope you will forgive me."

Shi Kefa asked, "What are you saying? I am not ignorant of the truth about being honest and unpleasant. Please ask Mr. Zhongjian to speak up."

Du Yinxi took a deep breath and whispered: "Yinxi believes that the court is struggling. Instead of fighting with Jingzhou, it is better to be good at pacifying Jingzhou and make him serve the court."

"This... if Jingzhou could obey the imperial orders, why would it be so troubled?" Shi Kefa asked in surprise.

"Otherwise, Jingzhou pays nearly 2 million Dayuan in a year. In addition, Lin Chunhong opens sea in Guangzhou, and only the Guangzhou Maritime Bureau pays more than 400,000 Dayuan in a year to the court. Is this considered serving the court?"

Shi Kefa gritted his teeth and nodded, "It can be regarded as serving the imperial court."

"Gao Yingxiang was destroyed, the fifth camp of the left was appointed as the head, and Zhang Xianzhong lost a lot of strength. Can he serve the court?"

"It's worth it!"

Du Yinxi said, "Please forgive me for your crime. Yinxi believes that since the court cannot suppress Lin Chunhong, it is better to use it to dominate the world, use it to destroy the bandits, and use it to smear the people. It is of great benefit to the world, the people, and the Ming court!"
