The process of Wen'an's sending people to investigate the whereabouts of the remaining troops of the Shun Army was not easy.

After getting a large sum of money, there are too many places to transfer this Shun Army. Baoqing Prefecture, Hengzhou Prefecture, and even Yuanzhou Prefecture in Jiangxi can be selected.

All Wen Anzhi could do was to scatter the scouts in order to get some clues.

While waiting, Wen Anzhi also wrote to Yuan Jixian, asking him to mobilize people to search the traces of the remaining troops of the Shun Army in Jiangxi.

Who knew that the willows were planted in a shade without any intention.

Not long after, Yuan Jixian wrote back to Wen Anzhi.

In his reply, Yuan Jixian wrote that he did find a Shun army of tens of thousands of people in Yuanzhou Prefecture and surrendered to his troops. However, this Shun army was not led by generals such as Yuan Zongdi and Liu Fangliang, but was defeated by Hao Yaoqi.

But this is always a reward.

Wen Anzhi immediately reported the good news to the emperor.

There are no traces of Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang and others in Jiangxi. Then these people are likely to have gone south to Hengzhou Prefecture. Compared with Wuchang, Xiangyang, Chengtian, Jingzhou Prefecture in the north of Huguang, and Hengzhou in the south, Yongzhou Prefecture does not have much troops stationed, which is even worse than Changsha Prefecture.

This Shun Army is really a dragon entering the sea and seeking water.

The most terrifying thing is that if this Shun army continues to move south into Guangdong or Guangxi to resist stubbornly, the existing strength of the court will not be enough to divide the troops to wipe out. If it is allowed to recuperate in Guangdong and Guangxi to form separatist rule, it will be extremely unfavorable to the court's major plan for revitalization.

The climate in Guangdong and Guangxi is much warmer than that in the northern provinces, and they will not feel much cold even in winter. This Shun army will not be able to recover its vitality in a long time, and at that time, it will have the capital to challenge the imperial court.

So time is the most critical factor.

Wen Anzhi immediately asked the emperor to order the Ministry of War to report to Guangdong and Guangxi, and asked Guangdong and Guangxi to be on guard. He immediately reported the traces of the remaining troops of the Shun Army.

......

......

"Queen, after crossing Huayin Mountain, it is the territory of Lianzhou."

Liu Fangliang was in a good mood. Compared to a month ago, their situation has improved greatly. Although the future is still uncertain, they are not in a dead state.

"The governor of Guangdong and Guangxi established by the Ming Dynasty is Shen Youlong. If we enter Guangdong, we will inevitably have to deal with him. I don't know what kind of temper this person is."

Gao Guiying said lightly with one hand controlling the reins.

"What if he is, even if he is the king of heaven, I have to make way for us. Otherwise, we will burn his Guangzhou city."

Liu Tichun laughed loudly and said, "Empress, we heard that Guangdong is not as prosperous as the south of the Yangtze River. Why don't we just take it down and recruit soldiers and horses based on this? It won't take long to pull up tens of thousands of troops."

"Hey, today is not as good as before, so let's be more low-key."

Gao Guiying had just experienced the pain of losing her husband, so she was not in the mood to talk about the king's hegemony. Now she only hopes to lead this army well and give the old brothers a way out. To do this, she will be worthy of the dead Li Zicheng.

"If you want me to tell me, why don't we try Shen Youlong's bottom line first, maybe he wants to raise the bandits and self-respecting."

Yuan Zongdi paused and said, "As long as we have tens of thousands of people in Guangdong, the Ming court will definitely be a confidant. Shen Youlong, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, can get a steady stream of military pay for him to recruit soldiers and train troops. I think he is happy to see such a good thing."

"Haha, what Lao Yuan said is reasonable."

Liu Tichun exclaimed: "We might as well cooperate with Chen Youlong to perform a play. We don't really beat him. We just sent people to the prefectures and counties to pretend to be like this, so we gave Chen Youlong the opportunity to play."

For the rest of the Shun Army, what they need most now is time. As long as they give them a little breathing opportunity, they can make a comeback.

"But what if the Shen Youlong ignores us?"

Tian Jianxiu, who had been silent, poured a basin of cold water on everyone.

"I said Yufeng, how could you say all the disappointing words? Chen Youlong doesn't need such a good opportunity to beat the imperial court. Could it be a fool?"

Liu Tichun swallowed and said, "What kind of virtue is the officials of the Ming court? Others don't know, Yufeng is still unclear? If you pull all ten and chop them, it may be wrong, but if you cut them one by one, there will definitely be fish that misses the net."

Liu Tichun hated corrupt officials in the Ming court to the core.

If it weren't for these corrupt officials, his family wouldn't have starved to death.

"I heard that Chen Youlong is a rare good official."

Tian Jianxiu did not give Liu Tichun any face and said in a deep voice: "I think you are disappointed by Lao Liu."

"Yufeng, are you going to argue with us?"

Liu Tichun gritted his teeth and shook the whip and said, "How about we make a bet. If you lose, give me your sword. If I lose, I will lose. This 'black Qilin' under my crotch will be yours."

"Okay, then Old Liu, you will definitely lose."

Tian Jianxiu narrowed her eyes and said with great interest.

"Whether it is a corrupt official or a clean official, as long as he is a human being, he must know the current affairs. Even if Chen Youlong is really a good official, he doesn't want to cheat the court's military pay, he can't do anything to us."

Seeing that it was almost time, Gao Guiying stood up and smoothed out.

"Anyway, we have made up our minds to settle down in Guangdong and ignore those stupid things."

"The queen is right. What we have to do is to respond to changes in the same way!"

Tatsumi said with slightest.

......

......

"Chenjun Gate, this is the Tang newspaper sent by the Ministry of War!"

In the Guangzhou Governor's Office, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Chen Youlong took the Tang newspaper from his personal guard and opened it for a closer look.

At first he looked as usual, but he became more and more shocked when he saw it. At last, sweat had already oozed from his forehead.

"how so......"

Chen Youlong put down the pond newspaper and said in a daze: "Will Shunzi actually come to Guangdong and Guangxi..."

In Shen Youlong's view, Guangdong and Guangxi are absolutely backwards. Even if the world is in chaos, Guangdong and Guangxi should be as stable as Mount Tai.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

According to the Ministry of War Tang Daily, the remnants of the Shun Army, who suffered a crushing defeat in Jiugongshan, fled southward. They stayed in Changsha Prefecture for a while and continued to move south. It was time to head towards Hengzhou Prefecture.

If we follow this statement, it is really possible that the remnants of the Shun Army will come to Guangdong and Guangxi.

Especially in Guangdong, you can enter the territory of Guangdong by walking south from Hengzhou Prefecture.

Chen Youlong was very good at handling government affairs. Under his governance, Guangdong was as prosperous as Jiangnan.

But he doesn't know much about military affairs.

In addition to the Guangdong Navy, the two or three thousand people in the Governor's Bian camp could fight in the entire Guangdong.

If the remnants of the Shun Army really jumped south to Guangdong, it would be a headache for Chen Youlong.

What should he do now if everything is considered at the worst? Is it still time to recruit local brave men to train?
