After arranging Li Guo, the war in Suzhou is imminent.

Boluo's forward followed Chen Sheng's troops all the way south and approached Suzhou.

The mountain wind is about to come and the wind fills the building. Every day, countless people start fleeing south from Xuzhou. The people who continue to move south through Fengyang City are endless.

This is another disaster.

However, the people's expressions were no longer as numb as what Wu Zheng saw on the official road of Jiaxing Prefecture.

The reason is very simple. Before, it was to run away, but now, I know that I can go back.

Chen Sheng rushed in from Suzhou to meet Wu Zheng, and in order to express his feelings to Wu Zheng.

"Prince, you can't retreat anymore, if you retreat again... your morale will collapse!" Chen Shengfengchen rushed over and said this as soon as he saw Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng fell silent, his goal was far from reaching.

According to the plan, Chen Sheng led his troops to retreat to Fengyang City and then retreat to Chuzhou.

Then, in the eastern front of Lu territory, Chi Erhan retreated one after another to the Jiangdu line of Yangzhou Prefecture.

When Boluo and Yuele's army hit the Yangtze River, they waited for an opportunity to launch a counterattack, and used the navy artillery to severely damage the enemy.

But now, Chen Sheng reported that if he retreated again... his morale would collapse!

Wu Zheng knew that Chen Sheng's nature was not the kind of person who exaggerated the facts. He must have had an abnormal situation in the army, so he came to report it.

Chen Sheng continued anxiously: "Prince... can you change your plan and fight the enemy in Fengyang City... But even so, the last general is not very sure... Boluo's lancer... is so terrible!"

It seems that the battle situation is indeed very dangerous if Chen Sheng can say the word "fear".

No, if you can't lure the enemy, you can even lose the bait.

Wu Zheng asked: "The Jiangnan Military Workshop has never sold cavalry rifles to the Qing court... Where did Boluo's troops have such a number of cavalry rifles?"

Chen Shengdao: "Myong has tried to fight with Boluo several times... and has also killed and injured some Qing soldiers... Judging from the captured cavalry, it is not the finished product of my Jiangnan Military Workshop...Myong brings a shot, please check it out!"

Wu Zheng took the seized rifle from Chen Sheng. Indeed, it was obvious that this was not a product of Jiangnan Military Workshop.

This gun is more gorgeous and...luxury.

The solid wood is inlaid with copper, muzzle, gun body and handle are all made of copper rings. The wooden parts are painted, which is completely different from the products of the Jiangnan Military Workshop.

Wu Zheng was a pragmatist. Of course, it was also because the General's Office was tightened in finance and shortage of materials. Any firearms produced by the Jiangnan Military Workshop had no such "luxury".

The wooden gun body is installed with the barrel, connected with wedges, fixed, and then verified, and it is done.

Because no one thinks that this rod and gun can last for two, three years, or even longer, as long as it can last for a year or two.

This is also the reason why Wu Zheng was so arrogant that he asked Ma Shiying to sell muskets to the Qing court through Wei Kuangguo and Nan Huairen to make huge profits. Wu Zheng's idea was that when the Northern Expedition Army attacked, these muskets would probably not be used for a few shots. This is called killing the enemy invisibly!

But at this time, Chen Sheng presented the rifle, which made Wu Zheng frown. It was obvious that the gun was from Bo, and it must have been involved in the war in a certain Western country or even a few countries.

This made Wu Zheng feel unreasonable. Perhaps the Western countries may not have been for political reasons, but only wanted to gain benefits. However, in fact, they have caused serious consequences, which will increase the difficulty of the Northern Expedition and increase the casualties of soldiers.

"Have you tried the range?"

Chen Sheng nodded, "About fifty steps further than ours."

Uncle! Wu Zheng complained, fifty steps are enough to determine the success or failure of a battle!

"This gun stayed." Wu Zheng said calmly, "But the war still needs to be carried out according to the plan... Gu no matter what the soldiers think, he only knows that Gu will entrust this matter to you... You must do it without fail."

Chen Sheng looked depressed and said with a bitter face: "The prince doesn't know what... the last general is now in charge, but not all our Northern Expedition Army... many people, he... are not in control!"

Wu Zheng's face sank, "Who?"

Chen Sheng didn't say anything.

Wu Zheng said: "If you don't say it...that's your business. Just keep in mind the result, don't ask about the passage...go, follow the plan!"

Chen Sheng had no choice but to bow and leave.

But when he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Do you dare to ask the prince... will you have the right to make a decision after life or death?"

Wu Zheng's eyes frightened and he looked up and said, "Do you still have to teach you again if you are alone?"

Chen Sheng stood at attention, "That's good... I will say goodbye at the end!"

Looking at Chen Sheng's sudden back, Wu Zheng slowly let out a breath.

Of course he understood who Chen Sheng was referring to, but Chen Sheng could not say it, nor did he dare to say it.

Because that was the King of Wu... No, the young master of the regent, the current dynasty, the commander of the light chariot.

Of course, this is just one of the reasons.

Chen Sheng himself is also an old man who has made his fortune after Wu Zheng, so he can't "carry" too much about these things.

The biggest reason is that among the army under Chen Sheng's command, the biggest main body is Shen Zhiyuan's new army that returned to the 20,000 yuan.

If these people are really turned against each other, there is no need to fight this battle. Boro will easily break through Suzhou's temporary defense line and rush straight to the Yangtze River. At that time, he may not have time to complete the counterattack deployment and will be defeated by the enemy.

Chen Sheng is an old man. Before following Wu Zheng, he was the Kingsoft Guard General Banner. He knew very well what he was doing in the officialdom.

He knew that if he had told Wu Zhengming, with Wu Zheng's nature, he would definitely investigate and punish him.

But now, if this is done, it will be like stabbing a hornet's nest. Chen Sheng himself will not be able to escape the serious consequences caused by that time.

This is the real reason why Chen Sheng cannot say it and dare not say it.

Wu Zheng said, "Go... send someone to send a message to Shen Zhiyuan... and said, I'm in Fengyang City, treat him to wine!"

Huang Changping replied: "Yes... I will send someone to inform Mr. Bo."

....

"what you up to?"

After three rounds of wine, it just tasted good.

Wu Zheng directly pierced the window paper.

"what you up to?"

Just be simple and concise, this is Wu Zheng’s attitude towards his own people.

At this time, Shen Zhiyuan had a little blessed state.

Yes, since he joined Wu Zheng's command, many things no longer need to be controlled by him personally. Even Chen Sheng sent someone to the military camp to designate them.

If you are not in your position and do not plan your own affairs, and you will always have people with smart ears and ears and tendencies, and want to try to please Shen Zhiyuan. After this period of time, naturally people will become lucky.

But Shen Zhiyuan is unwilling to give up!

After being asked by Wu Zheng, the smile on Shen Zhiyuan's original face suddenly condensed.

"Let me ask... what kind of identity does the prince ask me today?" Shen Zhiyuan looked directly at Wu Zheng, "As the identity of His Highness the Superintendent... the identity of His Highness the King of Wu... the identity of the general, or the Wu Zheng, who grew up with me in Shining Town, Wuzhuang?"

Wu Zheng, who was originally aggressive, suddenly couldn't speak and he became silent.
