Chapter 320： Westward troops
The troops marching westward were delayed by one day for the troops marching eastward.
They have more people and need more supplies. Moreover, the troops moving westward were divided into two routes, one of which was still by water and needed to raise ships.
The water route led by Xu Yuxian and Qian Sule, a total of 20,000 people, entered the Hongze Lake by boat, and then went upstream through the Huai River and went straight to Bengbu and Huainan.
Another route led by Lu Guangzu and Fang Ce, with a total of 10,000 people, went south to Chuzhou.
The waterway is much easier, but Wu Jun does not have so many ships, so he can only carry 20,000.
All the way westward, he reached Fengyang.
In Fengyang, Xu Yuxian and the others landed and then marched towards the city.
Fengyang was originally a small city, but because it was Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown, it became famous all at once.
After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he built the imperial city of Zhongdu here.
The original small town is now much larger, and there are more garrisons.
In order to prevent surprise attacks on the rear when they attacked Bengbu and Huainan and prevent their logistics from being intercepted, they had to take Fengyang down before attacking Bengbu and Huainan.
Twenty thousand troops went straight to Fengyang. Fengyang's defenders knew they were lost and chose to open the door and surrender.
This corresponds to Xu Yuxian's guess that the Qing army's will to resist is not strong.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Fengyang's defenders are all Han green camps.
There is no such good thing in Bengbu and Huainan, where there are still many Eight Banners soldiers stationed there.
"Master Xu, I have a plan to take Bengbu easily."
At the evening banquet, the former Fengyang guard Shi Shouye said.
"Oh, let's just listen." Xu Yuxian was very interested.
"There are currently more than 15,000 defenders in Bengbu, which are divided into three parts. Among them, about 4 thousand and eight banner soldiers are led by Tatar Borha. The other two parts are green camps, respectively, by You Shicheng and Li. Commander Fei, among them, You Shicheng and Zai Xia are very affectionate..."
Shi Shouye's strategy is also very simple. It is nothing more than sending someone to send his handwritten letter to You Shicheng, and then instigating a rebellion.
As long as they entered the city, the Qing army was not an opponent of Wu Jun at all.
There are more than 5,000 people under You Shicheng. If they succeed in instigating rebellion, the Qing army will undoubtedly be defeated.
Of course, the premise is to be able to convince You Shicheng.
Xu Yuxian will naturally not refuse such a good thing.
For him, this strategy is successful, that is, a pie fell in the sky, which can reduce a lot of losses. If the strategy fails, it doesn't matter, just continue to attack the city according to the original plan.
So, he stopped the army in Fengyang, waiting for the good news from Shi Shouye on the one hand, and on the other hand raising food and grass around him to feed on the enemy.
Fengyang used to be taken care of by the royal family all the year round, so there were a group of relatively wealthy classes here. The ancestors of these people have more or less a relationship with Zhu Yuanzhang.
These people are Xu Yuxian's objects of gathering wool. They are going to rebel anyway, and they are mortal enemies with those who are loyal to the Zhu family, so you don't need to be polite.
These people who have been cared for by the old Zhu family for generations are undoubtedly Da Ming's diehards.
After the order was issued, Wu Jun began a robbery operation, which was the first time they did such a thing.
However, as long as there is a weapon in his hand, there is basically no difficulty in doing this kind of thing, and Wu Jun does it very smoothly.
Those who are robbed are smarter than paying protection fees for peace. There are also some more arrogant people who have picked up a **** and a pole, wanting to fight Wu Jun.
Their fate is naturally to be killed without accident and then ransacked.
The common people challenge the army, and they can only hope that the army dare not move the truth. Once they do, those **** poles will be a joke.
Wu Jun's harvest was extremely rich, and an ordinary petty bourgeoisie could find thousands of taels of silver. Larger manors can find tens of thousands of taels of silver.
As for other fixed assets, there are countless more. These were quickly sold cheaply by Wu Jun, and even sold to some merchants at low prices forcibly.
They only need money that is convenient to use, and the land is useless if it comes.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the court was poor and the people were poor, but the landlords were powerful and the merchants were not poor at all.
After copying more than a dozen homes, those people became completely honest and took the initiative to pay money to avoid disasters.
After searching, they raised enough money to buy military rations for more than two months.
This makes Xu Yuxian a little worried, feeling that this matter has made it a little bit bigger, and I don't know what attitude it will be.
In order to leave a way for himself, Xu Yuxian did not take any of the benefits, and all used it in the army.
At the same time, he also wrote a report to Li Shaobin in time to explain his situation.
In the battle report, he explained that he was robbing diehards who were loyal to Daming and was an enemy.
This kind of statement is also reluctant to say in the past.
In Bengbu, You Shicheng received a letter from Shi Shouye and learned that Shi Shouye had turned to Wu Jun.
He was quite envious, because now the Wu army is so powerful that the backing of the Qing army is already unstable. Surrendering to Wu Jun is a good choice.
However, it is easy for Shi Shouye to surrender, because in Fengyang, Shi Shouye is the biggest.
But it is not easy for him to surrender. There are also Borha, who is staring at him, and Li Fei, who has an unclear attitude.
If he surrendered rashly, he might have lost his life before Wu Jun arrived.
"I need to explore Li Fei's tone first."
You Shicheng said to the liaison officer.
If he could get Li Fei together anyway, then he would not be afraid of Borja.
"I'm afraid it's too late. Wu Jun will come soon. You have to make up your mind as soon as possible."
Trying to test the tone is not to find Li Fei directly to ask, if Li Fei doesn't agree to Daqing, wouldn't You Shicheng be exposed. However, it takes time to use implicit and obscure methods to test.
Therefore, the person in charge of the liaison hopes that You Shicheng can make up his mind directly, which will also facilitate them to quickly make plans for internal and external cooperation.
"Well, then, according to General Shi's plan, the white flag was used as the name of the day of the attack. The side with the white flag is where our troops are stationed. Then I will open the city gate and you can enter the city directly from my side."
After weighing the pros and cons, You Shicheng decided to agree to cooperate inside and out.
After all, even if he did not agree, under Wu Jun's strong attack, Bengbu might not be able to defend it.
They have neither strong soldiers nor strong cities.
Why bother to insist on a laborious and thankless thing.
And with Wu Junli and Yingwai, although there is a little risk, it can defeat Borja 100%. When the time comes, not only will you be able to approach the big tree Wu Jun, you will also be able to make contributions and keep your glory and wealth.
The two negotiated some details, and after contacting them, they left the city overnight and returned to Fengyang to report the good news to Shi Shouye.
