Everything was carried out in an orderly manner. Zhu Yijun's twenty-year reforms have shown some things, such as the Ming Dynasty's improvement in execution compared to before. Although the war has not yet begun, the complete military and logistics system established by Zhu Yijun has begun to exert its power.

Materials were constantly being sent up, and the personnel were quickly in place. Now, Zhu Yijun can only describe the Ming Dynasty's war mobilization ability in one word, that is: strong!

The matter in Nanjing came to an end, and Zhu Yijun couldn't help the war in the south, so Zhu Yijun set out again. This time his goal was Songjiang Prefecture, which is the Great Shanghai in later generations. Compared with later generations, Songjiang Prefecture was far inferior to that in this time, but in the past two years, Songjiang's status has gradually improved.

As the estuary of the Yangtze River, once the maritime trade begins, its status here will naturally be improved.

The goods go from overseas to Songjiang, and then change the ship and enter the Yangtze River directly. There are many big cities along the way, and the freight advantage is unparalleled.

When Zhu Yijun set out to Songjiang Prefecture, Sichuan was also in a state of emergency. The whole Sichuan could be said to be shocked three times a day. Since the last defeat, the situation in Sichuan has not been very good. Some people are ready to move, some want to take the opportunity to cause trouble, and some want to escape. It can be said that people's hearts are floating.

Sichuan Governor Wang Jiguang was under great pressure and was in a state of extreme tension.

Wang Jiguang had heard that Sichuan's soldiers were useless, but he didn't expect that they would be so useless that they would be destroyed in one battle.

In this case, Wang Jiguang's psychological pressure can be imagined, and he even fell into depressed for several days. Everyone below also knew that Wang Jiguang's governor was probably overwhelmed. In short, the whole Sichuan people were moved, and if they were not careful, they would cook the ignition oil, and they would burn Wang Jiguang to death with a handful of fire.

Wang Jiguang, who was in Chongqing, was even more afraid of Yang Yinglong calling him. Once he lost his place in Chongqing, he might not have lost his official position but lost his head.

Originally, Wang Jiguang was almost desperate, but soon the imperial edict from the court came, which was considered to have continued Wang Jiguang's life.

Although the wording of the imperial edict was very serious, and even the words of "He came to see him" came out, Wang Jiguang was really relieved. Because the imperial edict said that he had made meritorious service and stabilized the entire Sichuan and Shu before the arrival of the imperial army. Otherwise, the crisis would be temporarily lifted.

As long as the army arrives and cooperates well, he may be able to make meritorious contributions. How could Wang Jiguang not breathe a sigh of relief?

Once the imperial army arrived, Yang Yinglong would be the grasshopper in the autumn, and Wang Jiguang was still confident in the Ming army.

"Sir!" Guo Cheng walked in from outside, with his expression obviously tired. If you want to say who is under the greatest pressure during this period, Guo Cheng is more pressured than Wang Jiguang. He is a military general and is responsible for defeat. I won't say that he will die in the battle. He is just exempted from it, and it is impossible to say wherever he put it.

Under such circumstances, Guo Cheng's pressure can be imagined. Now that the news from the court has come, he can feel more at ease. Especially when he knew that the imperial army was about to arrive, Guo Cheng made up his mind that he must make meritorious in his heart this time. Guo Cheng is a military general, which makes him even more eager to make meritorious in his heart.

Wang Jiguang nodded to Guo Cheng: "Is there anything wrong?"

Now Wang Jiguang and Guo Cheng are brothers in trouble. The eldest brother will not talk about the second brother, which makes the relationship between the two a lot more harmonious.

"Sir, the scout came to report that Admiral Liu's men are almost here in Chongqing, and they will arrive at dusk today." Guo Cheng did not delay and said directly.

Wang Jiguang stood up excitedly. He was trembling these days, and now he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Guo Cheng expected Wang Jiguang's reaction and did not find it strange, because when he first received the news, Guo Cheng was also excited. He lowered his head and tried not to see Wang Jiguang. Many people were very concerned about their loss of composure and being seen by others. Guo Cheng doesn't want to offend Wang Jiguang now.

"Okay, okay, it's so great!" Wang Jiguang quickly exclaimed: "We're finally here!"

At sunset, Liu Zhen's army arrived in Chongqing. The Chongqing Prefecture, which was originally panicked, instantly stabilized. The people ran to the city gate to see the army.

The cavalry teams entered the city first. Although there were not many, there were also some. There were tall war horses, neat plate armor, long sabers, and muskets on them. They were all full of energy. You could tell at a glance that they were elite troops. Even the horses walked on the streets were the same, making a crisp sound of horse hooves.

Behind the horse team was the artillery battalion. One cannon was pulled into the city by the horse, and the cannons with wheels flashed with cold light.

Behind the artillery battalion are infantry, with shield soldiers in front of them, tall and mighty, and the shortest is 1.7 meters tall. Everyone is stout. The shield in their hands looks scary, and it will definitely be done if they are smashed. Musketeers, archers, and every type of troops entering the city are shocking.

Liu Jing sat on the horse, wearing a helmet and armor, and was wearing a big red cloak behind him. He was majestic and sharp in his eyes. He was obviously a powerful general on the battlefield.

There are two goals for entering the city with such a high-profile attitude. One is to comfort people's hearts. The defeated place and people's hearts are uneasy. Such a high-profile entry can comfort people's hearts and prevent the people from panicing. The second reason is to shock the little ones, that is, to tell people who have any random thoughts, to be honest with me.

Obviously, Liu Jing's approach was very effective, and this move did have an effect of shocking and soothing.

After the entry ceremony, Liu Jing, Wang Jiguang and others came to the temporary headquarters of Chongqing Prefecture.

Wang Jiguang did not dare to neglect Liu Jing at all. Although he was the governor, Liu Jing was also an admiral. Liu Jing was even higher in terms of rank. You should know that the number of governors of the Ming Dynasty was far more than that of the admirals. Which admiral was not the chief of the military town, and the one with a higher status was not a little bit higher.

If it were in the past, civil servants would have some advantages, but now the admiral directly under the Military Affairs Office has an extraordinary status.

In addition, Wang Jiguang was defeated and now everyone is counting on Liu Jiguang to help him. How could Wang Jiguang dare to offend Liu Jiguang?

Liu Yijun did not show much arrogance and did not look down on Wang Jiguang or Guo Cheng. Although he didn't know what he thought, he was able to live up to his face. What Zhu Yijun said to Liu Yi in Nanjing did play a role. Moreover, in the past few years, he first followed Qi Jiguang and Zhang Weixian, and Liu Yi learned a little.
