Pan Mei defeated Du Zhen, but the army did not stop. Just like thunder, Xinlinzhai, Bailuzhou, and Xinlin Port in the southwest of Jinling City were quickly captured.

In fact, if Song Jiu had stronger military capabilities and more historical knowledge at this time, he would see a serious crisis, which was the cooperation between the two styles, which caused serious derailment.

Pan Mei used troops like a tiger going down the mountain, like a dragon going out to sea, with an astonishing speed. Cao Bin used troops on the contrary, extremely steady. Once he sought stability, his speed would inevitably not be fast. Pan Mei's front army seemed to fly, and Cao Bin was dragging it hard behind him, and it was hard to say that even if the murderous edict in the envelope Zhao Kuangyin gave him was true, he could only kill Pan Mei, but Pan Mei could not kill it. It happened that the Southern Tang attacked Chizhou, why was it Chizhou? The Song Dynasty occupied Chizhou first, which was a little far from the main battlefield, but when the river came and went, Chizhou was the upper reaches. The Song Dynasty occupied Chizhou and left only the Nanjiang section of Chizhou to Hukou to the Southern Tang. The threat behind was not very big, at least the threat to the floating bridge was reduced. But if the Southern Tang was taken back, the threat would increase.

Moreover, the garrison of Chizhou was Fan Ruobing, a traitor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he had to kill and establish his authority. However, he was easily defeated by Fan Ruobing. This battle was not defeated by Fan Ruobing, but by the generals under his tent, the army and horses, Wang Zhi. This person was the son of Wang Pu, a famous minister of the former Zhou Dynasty. It is said that after Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne, he passed by the Meritorious Minister's Pavilion and saw the portrait of Wang Pu, standing still, tidied up his imperial robe, and said, if this person was there, I would not be able to wear this robe.

Because of this glorious life experience, Wang Fu must be valued, and he was not a eunuch, which made Song Jiu misunderstand. So he thought to the eunuch in the palace, the reason why Wang Fu from the palace was reused was due to his own reasons. After the battle of Chizhou, Cao Bin ordered Fan Ruobing to divide his troops into Xuanzhou. Fan Ruobing knew the qualities. He asked Wang Fu to divide his troops into 4,000 troops to attack Xuanzhou, but he actually took down Xuanzhou, the important land of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Cao Bin also divided his troops to attack Lishui in the south of Jinling City. Xuanzhou was separated from Lishui. The west was the Wuyue army, the south was isolated, and Jiangbei was the territory of the Song people. Caishiji Dangtu had been taken into account by the Song Dynasty, and Jinling would become an isolated city.

First, to cooperate with Pan Mei.

The second one can also see Cao Bin's style of military use, that is, stability.

If you can't understand it, look at Pan Mei's military style. Compared with the two, is there any encirclement from all sides? Even if Pan Chongche led his troops to surrender, he just ordered him to lead his troops without moving, and did not ask him to lead his troops from the west to cooperate with Pan Mei's army.

But the two styles always conflict.

At the end of the year, Wu Yue was not idle and surrounded Changzhou in layers. Jinling City announced martial law, and 100,000 troops were drawn from the city and followed the Qinhuai River and the north by Jinling City. They occupied the water to wait for the Song army.

The Song army stopped. The Qinhuai River was still very wide. If you want to cross the river, you must prepare a ship to carry the army to cross the river. But when Cao Bin was not moving yet, Pan Mei could not wait. He summoned the generals and shouted: "Pan Meiti Xiao has tens of thousands of people, and he will win the battle. He will win the attack. How can he not cross the road just because of a belt of water?"

What the old man said was not a bragging. With just one sentence, the soldiers made him speak excitedly. Pan Mei mobilized his subordinates to help him, rode on his horse, and jumped into the Qinhuai River. Although Jinling City was in the south of the Yangtze River, it was the first month of the year and the weather was still very cold. But when he saw the main general going down the river in person, these soldiers and generals jumped into the river one by one and rushed to the other side.

There were many heroes in the Song army. Another hero, Li Hanqiong, saw Pan Mei getting fucked, looked at the wind direction, it was the north wind, and it was blowing very fiercely, so he took the giant ship, filled it with dry reeds, set fire with the wind, and suddenly set fire to the Nantang Water Village.

Two attacks against each other, and 100,000 Tang troops were defeated.

However, before Pan Mei could station on the north shore, he made an amazing move. He attacked quickly and retreated quickly. Seeing that the Song army was disconnected, the Southern Tang Dynasty asked Zheng Bin to lead his army out of the city and drove the ship and the navy to the pontoon bridge. Once the pontoon bridge was destroyed by Zheng Bin, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Pan Mei retreated very quickly, and finally arrived at the pontoon bridge before the ships of the Southern Tang Dynasty arrived, fought against the Tang Dynasty naval army, easily defeated them, and captured Zheng Bin and other seven generals.

The process made many people sweat. It can be said that Pan Mei was advancing too fast, which led to the continuous changes in Cao Bin's plan, which made this loophole appear. But it can also be said that Cao Bin was too steady and unrealistic, and it can also be said that Cao Bin did not cooperate with Pan Mei well. Pan Mei charged in the front line, and you governed the entire army, and this huge loophole would not appear in the rear. If Pan Mei had not made up for it in time, big trouble would have arisen. However, the two had a good relationship and did not entangle in this matter. Afterwards, they would not have covered each other in the memorial, but did not attract attention.

Pan Mei had no choice but to slow down the pace of the army and cooperate with Cao Bin's steady attitude. To fight a protracted battle, he had to prepare sufficient food and supplies. Li Fuyi rushed to Jinghu and transferred his troops to the city of Jinling. The Northern Han side was still unwilling to accept it. Liu Jiyuan and Ma Feng attacked Jinzhou and Wu Shouqi defeated. Yang Linggong was defeated repeatedly, which made Song Jiu doubt Yang Ye's combat effectiveness. Zhu Dong was defeated for a while, but he was a capable minister and quickly reflected on him. So he asked his general Shi Xi to lead the troops. The two countries fought against Yuanzhou. This victory led to defeat two thousand Jiangnan soldiers. Pan Mei withdrew,

The Southern Tang took advantage of the situation to capture Bailuzhou again. Cao Bin beheaded 5,000 people in Bailuzhou in the second battle, and captured 50 warships. The governor of Yangzhou Hou Zhi defeated more than 1,000 people in Jiangnan with his troops in Xuanhua Town. Wang Yi was in Xuanzhou and recruited the governor of Luzhou Xing Qi to lead troops across the river to assist him, and allocated Yi'an Village. Cao Bin fought with Nantang in the river and defeated 3,000 Southern Tang naval troops. He blocked the Southern Tang naval troops in the city and refused to let them come out. This is a word of stability. Seeing the Northern Han invasion twice, the Song Dynasty asked Luozhou Yao Jineng to lead the troops to counterattack and seize Yingjian Fort. Zhao Kuangyin also led a thousand soldiers to Jiangnan with his favored eunuch Wang Jien to supervise morale.

Many battles occurred sporadically, but these battles were ignored.

The two armies continue to be in a stalemate in the overall situation.

When Song Jiu heard Pan Weide finish the news ahead, he was puzzled.

Pan Mei once served as Chai Rong's personal guard officer. Chai Rong's military strategy had a deep influence on Pan Mei. Song Jiu participated in several military operations, which was not counted in Bashu. The one who really participated in learning something was in the Southern Han Dynasty, and was also influenced by Pan Mei. Therefore, seeing the slow pace of the Song army made him feel very puzzled. Is Cao Bin still holding on to the idea of ​​forcing Li Yu to surrender to the people in order to avoid greater harm to the property?

But if Li Yu did not surrender, there would be a bigger loophole. The 100,000 troops under Jinling City could not be counted. Those soldiers were just temporary troops that Li Yu hurriedly armed the people in the city. Just like the 200,000 troops armed by Liu Yu, or the famous general Feng Changqing organized 60,000 temporary troops in Luoyang. What if his subordinates were 60,000 Anxi Army at that time? Then even defeat would make An Lushan feel hurt to his bones!

Therefore, Pan Mei forced the Qinhuai River to cross the Qinhuai River, and it cannot be said that the Southern Tang army is useless. Therefore, once the 100,000 Tang troops at Hukou wake up, what should we do if the floating bridge in the river beneath it?

Actually, this is not a big crisis. Zhao Kuangyin can’t see this? What is Wang Ming doing?

The biggest crisis is not the 100,000 Southern Tang Army, but the extremely inconsistent use of Cao and Pan...

Song Jiu thought for a long time and suddenly said, "Brother-in-law, second brother-in-law, third brother-in-law, what do you think Shi Shouxin?"

"Famous ministers and generals."

"Then why did he deduct the people's salaries in Luoyang?"

"I have become greedy after I am old." Pan Weigu said.

"You think about Xiao He's self-deprecating story. Is Xiao He that kind of person?"

"Brother-in-law, what do you want to say?"

"When the moon is full, it will lose, and when the water is full, it will overflow. No matter what, my father made great contributions this time in the southern expedition." But Song Jiu sighed deeply. If the general was Pan Mei, the Southern Tang might almost be able to take it down at this time, but then Pan Mei would be able to wash and sleep. What kind of contribution is the destruction of the two countries? When it reaches its peak, it will not be enough. So Liezi said that good fortune and good fortune are mutually reliant. If he is not satisfied, it is a good thing. Therefore, he said: "Let's talk about how much money your family has made in the years?"

"Brother-in-law said..."

"In this year, your family has almost reached its peak."

"My father's credit is made in real way. Our money is made in great simplicity."

"That's how you think, but outsiders think so?"

"My brother-in-law wants to say..."

Song Jiu quietly spoke out the thought that had just come to his mind. The three brothers of the Pan family were not convinced. Pan Weide said: "Song Jiu, think about it. We have many brothers. My mother is much better than my younger sister."

Pan Lian'er grabbed his ears when he went up. But the fact is that Tian is beautiful. Although she is not as old as a girl, Pan Mei works hard. With Pan Weide, Weigu and Weizheng. After the fourth brother of Weiqing, Pan Lian'er brought two sisters and a younger brother to Pan Lian'er in the south. Because the weather in the south was hot, he saw that Song Jiu took good care of Pan Weiqing at home, Tian sent his two daughters and young son to the Song family. It was not until last winter that Tian returned to Beijing from the south that he took several children back.

Song Jiufu advised: "How much money can you make on Hezhou? Why bother? I'm going to take four more ships, two 4,000 materials, two 3,000 materials, and you can compare them. You'll still make money, but that's at sea and has nothing to do with anyone."

The Pan brothers still couldn't bear to let them go.

Song Jiu said again: "Three brothers-in-law, either we occupy an island, the sugar technology is about to mature, and only the imperial court is operating in China. What if it is overseas? Is it easy to want money? Besides, I have other methods."

"Yes, when will that sugar technology be successful?"

"There are some last steps, mainly dilute sulfuric acid. This technology has matured and can even be combined with the original sulfuric acid technology to become the second method to make sulfuric acid. Now there are only some techniques that clarify sugar colors and have not been overcome. I believe there is no good news this winter, and there will be good news next spring."

Only Song Jiu knew about when it would be successful. In fact, the progress of R&D was very slow, otherwise it would have been successful. Moreover, the Lingnan Association's more taxes this year, and Song Jiu would make up for the treasury's losses. Isn't it just burning a lot of money? But can Guangnan bring 56 million yuan to the court in a year? Can it still be compensated? Although the wealth that the fire could burn was ten times or more than ten times it, this income was long-lasting, and the Song Dynasty would make up for it in one day. And another invisible invisible, the result of the development of the south was to bring the southern desert to the civilized era. More than one million hectares of arable land in Guangdong and Guangxi were enough to feed millions of households. It left room for the future population reproduction in the country.

"Okay, we agree," said the brothers with one look at each other.
