After Li Guo's ship left the dock, the Qing cavalry suddenly rushed, broke through the block, and rushed to the dock.

The remaining Ming army either jumped into the river, was killed by cavalry, or surrendered on their knees.

At this time, although there were still many Ming soldiers on the north bank, trapping the tops of the hills and resisting desperately, the situation was over.

After the Qing army occupied the dock, the Ming army warships on the river still shelled the north shore until dusk, and gave the remaining Ming army the greatest support, but eventually retreated to the south shore.

When it was getting dark, Ajige rode a horse to the mouth of the old river. The corpses of the Ming and Qing armies were everywhere on the ground. The horse's hooves were trampled on the ground that were stained with blood and turned muddy. When he arrived at the riverside, Ajige's face turned gloomy and he stared at the south bank.

The Qing army on the north bank shuttled between the pile of corpses, cleaned up the battlefield, carried away the bodies, and the Qing soldiers cleaned up silently, without the joy that was a few days ago.

The Qing army won this war, but the Qing army soldiers were very heavy in their hearts.

He Luo came to Ajige's side and said in a deep voice: "Prince, the army captured nearly 10,000 barbarians and killed more than 20,000 people. Those who were driven into the river could not count the amount, and the seized materials were counted."

Ajige's eyes were too long, "What about the losses of the Qing warriors?"

He Luo would lower his head, "Report to the prince, preliminary estimates, the losses are afraid of more than 10,000 people. Two of the cavalrymen of the White Banner lost thousands, and the artillery team of the Han army's Red Banner was almost destroyed!"

Azig clenched his whip with his hands, his face full of anger.

Such a result has basically been announced that the southern expedition, which the Qing court had been planning for many days and was determined to plan for a long time, had already died halfway.

In the city of Nanjing, in the palace.

Zhu Youjian quickly read the military newspaper on the front line and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhao Ming took action, with the Zhejiang Navy's Navy, and mobilized the people and merchants on the south bank to rush to cross the ferry. More than 100,000 Ming troops on the north bank retreated more than half.

When these troops were withdrawn, the defense of the South Bank increased greatly. In addition, Zhu Youjian and Zhao Ming reached a settlement, Nanjing can be said to be safe.

Zhu Youjian put down the memorial and asked in a deep voice: "Where is Li Guo and the North Bank defeated troops now?"

In the hall, several great scholars looked at each other. Finally, Yang Wencong left the list and whispered: "Report to Your Majesty, except for a small number, they were taken to Nanjing, and most of them were transported to Jiangdong by King Wu Yue."

Zhu Youjian was stunned and then furious, "What did you say?"

Yang Wencong lowered his head and said nothing. He Tengjiao, who was neglected, seized the opportunity, stood up, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the ships sent by the court received less than 20,000 people, and the remaining people were all sent to Jiangdong by Zhao Bo'an. Zhao Bo'an was a wolfish ambition, and this was to take the opportunity to annex the imperial army!"

Zhu Youjian's face was as deep as water. Unexpectedly, Zhao Ming was so shameless. He took advantage of the opportunity to receive the defeated troops and transported tens of thousands of troops from Jiangbei to Jiangdong.

Since these troops were taken away by Zhao Ming and transported to Jiangdong, Zhao Ming could not return them.

In this way, Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yihai became losers in this multi-party war caused by internal turmoil in the Southern Ming Dynasty, while Zhao Ming won Zhejiang and received tens of thousands of troops, which can be said to be the biggest winner.

This time, Zhu Yihai's position as the crown prince was abolished, and the Zhejiang forces suffered heavy losses. The Longwu Dynasty lost nearly 200,000 troops, which was severely damaged.

When the Qing army advanced south, Ajige defeated 200,000 Ming troops in Jiangbei, captured tens of thousands of people, captured Fengxiang, Hezhou, Chuzhou, and most of Luzhou, and seized a large amount of military capital and food, which was considered a profit from the fisherman.

However, it was not a good thing that the Qing army had torn up the peace agreement too early, which exposed the intention to destroy the Ming Dynasty.

Zhao Ming first captured Zhejiang and annexed a large number of troops from the Zhejiang clan, and then took the opportunity to transport tens of thousands of imperial guards. His strength soared and he truly became a major force in separatist areas.

This made Zhu Youjian extremely angry and furious, "Transfer an order to Zhao Ming, and ask him to leave and return Li Guo and tens of thousands to the court!"

He Tengjiao said: "I will draw an order!"

Just when Zhu Youjian was indignant, Pang Tianshou walked into the hall quickly and saluted in a panic, "Your Majesty, Huguang Governor Fu Shangrui urgently reported!"

Zhu Youjian frowned, "What happened again in Huguang?"

Pang Tianshou stuttered in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Governor Fu wrote a letter to say~"

Zhu Youjian shouted angrily, "What did he say?"

Pang Tianshou knelt down and kowtowed, looked at Zhu Youjian, and lowered his head, "Governor Fu said that after Xichuan soldiers entered Huguang, they did not station troops. Governor Fu sent someone to question him, but Xichuan soldiers attacked Jingzhou on the grounds that the court owed wages~~~~~~~~"

When Zhu Youjian heard the words, he felt the five thunders thunder thunder, and his head was dizzy and almost fainted.

For a moment, Zhu Youjian's mind went blank, and he sat on the throne in depressed manner, speechless for a moment.

"Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body!" He Tengjiao was also shocked by the news, but he still comforted the emperor first.

When Zhu Youjian heard his voice, he was furious, "Didn't I ask the Ministry of Revenue to allocate 500,000 taels of silver and 300,000 stones of food to Sun Kewang for military expenses?"

He Tengjiao immediately lowered his head. Sun Kewang was just a bandit, and both were vassal states, and he was also the target of He Tengjiao's weakening.

After Zhu Youjian issued the order, he did not allocate grain to Sun Kewang at all. Instead, he first distributed the money and grain to enrich his and his subordinates' pockets. The rest was given to Fu Shangrui, the governor of Huguang, to raise He Tengjiao's own troops and to use them to promote the eastward Xichuan troops to reinforce Nanjing.

After Fu Shangrui received the money and food, he naturally did not give it to the Xichuan soldiers and also intercepted most of the troops, which made Sun Kewang reinforce Nanjing and even paid for it himself.

When Zhu Youjian saw He Tengjiao's expression, he immediately understood. He picked up the memorial at hand and smashed it at He Tengjiao.

"My country has been destroyed by you, mediocre talent!" Zhu Youjian almost turned his back in anger.

He Tengjiao was so scared that he kowtowed quickly, "Your Majesty, I did make a mistake, but Sun Kewang, like Zhao Ming, is a wolf-like foreign town. The owed wages may be just an excuse for Sun Kewang."

Zhao Ming, on the east side, swallowed up Zhu Youjian's army of tens of thousands, and on the west side, Sun Kewang took the opportunity to occupy Jingzhou. The Ming Dynasty can be said to be in turmoil.

In this way, the Xichuan Army trapped in Sichuan had an exit, which would pose a huge threat to the Longwu court.

Now, Zhu Youjian is really regretful, why does it matter that He Tengjiao, a fool, has turned the original good situation into this.

Zhu Youjian no longer wanted to scold him. He Tengjiao, who was in charge of the vassal of the court, led to a rebellion. He Tengjiao's confidant in Huguang forced the Xichuan soldiers to mutiny.

For a moment, Zhu Youjian felt a burst of tiredness that hit his heart.

As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, if Zhu Youjian wanted to strengthen the imperial power, revitalize the court, and achieve internal unification, he thought he was right, but why was it so difficult?

After a while, Zhu Youjian sighed, "If the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, it will be destroyed by mediocre officials and powerful vassals of different surnames!"
