When Song Zhiyong and others came outside Nanyang City, they found that the city was actually a banner of the Ming army. Song Zhiyong knew that the more cautious he was, the more he was. He sent people into the city to check and inquire. Sure enough, there was no trap in this, and Nanyang had recovered at this time.

It turned out that Hong Chengchou had only more than 10,000 troops attacking Nanyang because of insufficient troops. After receiving the imperial edict from Emperor Hongguang, Huang Degong immediately raised 20,000 troops and ordered Ma Degong and Tian Xiong to advance to Nanyang as the chief and deputy vanguard. He himself led Huang Shiren to force Jing Xiang. Hong Chengchou could not cope with this situation even if he had any strategy. In order to ensure the safety of Jing Xiang, he had to withdraw his troops from Nanyang. When Ma Degong led his troops to the arrival, he took over Nanyang City without any use. However, the city had been looted by the Qing army, and the people were very distressed.

When Song Zhiyong heard the news, he stopped hesitating and immediately went to see Ma Degong and Tian Xiong. Ma Tian and the other two have been in Nanyang for a long time. They were preparing to return to Jiujiang without any war. If Song Zhiyong came late, he would not be able to meet him for one or two days.

Song Zhiyong and Ma Tian were both generals, so they clasped each other and said hello. When Ma Tian and they learned about the crisis in Bozhou, they took a deep breath. Although they heard that almost the entire Henan was in decline, they believed that the emperor was in charge of the army, and the nearly 200,000 troops in their hands would definitely win. Unexpectedly, such a situation would be.

Tian Xiong said, "General Song, let's talk about it on the way next to us. Rescue soldiers are like putting out fires. Let's pack up the food and supplies and set off immediately." Ma Degong, who was on the side, nodded and said, "As Song Zhiyong said, it's better to lead the troops to Bozhou quickly. In this way, the three generals led 20,000 reinforcements to Bozhou day and night.

On this day, Ma Degong and others led their troops to Luyi, which was not far from Bozhou. Seeing that it was dark, the three of them discussed and decided to set up camp thirty miles outside Luyi City, because the entire Henan area had been occupied by the Qing army except for a few cities. In order not to let the Qing army know their whereabouts, Ma Degong and others were extremely careful in marching. They walked on small roads and set off from Nanyang to Yancheng before they received food and supplies. There were only these two cities in Henan still in the hands of Nanming.

When they heard the horse probing the horse that Luyi had been occupied by the Qing army, Song Zhiyong sighed. They were in a hurry to march and logistics supply was very difficult. It would be enough to save food and grass from Yancheng to save food for five days. It is estimated that even if the battle situation in Bozhou is unfavorable, they are very likely to be starved.

Song Zhiyong and Ma Degong Tianxiong were having supper in the tent. While they were eating, they saw the tent being opened by soldiers and walked into one person, "Report to the three lords, someone outside asked for a visit."

Ma Degong had a bad temper, "Damn it! It's not like you're not seeing you. It's definitely not good for those who come to the door at this time, just kill you." Ma Degong felt that there was someone in the wilderness, and it was useless to see him.

Song Zhiyong said a few words to ask the soldiers to invite people from outside. As the saying goes, it is better to be in charge of county officials now. If you want to know the recent situation in Bozhou, it is better to ask the locals, so he advised Ma Degong to say a few words.

As soon as the people outside came in, Tian Xiong, who was eating, looked up and saw the chopsticks for eating slid from his hand and slid on the ground a few times. He hurriedly got up and took a closer look, "You...you are Lord Yin Xunyin!"

The one who came was Yin Shixun. He smiled bitterly, "I am not an adult anymore. General Tian should not call him like this, so I will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who meets with Tian Xiong. If it weren't for knowing that Tian Xiong was in the army, Yin Shixun wouldn't have come to meet him.

Ma Degong also knew that there was a person like Yin Shixun, so he greeted him with Song Zhiyong. After Yin Shixun returned the gift, he looked at the three of them, "The three generals may not know the current situation, right? Wait until Yin tells the three generals." As he said that, Yin Shixun explained to Song Zhiyong and others about the defeat of Emperor Hongguang in Xuzhou and Gao Di trapped in Bozhou.

Originally, Yin Shixun should have provided convenient intelligence assistance to Emperor Hongguang during the war, but he went to Beijing a month before Emperor Hongguang started his army. When he came back from Beijing, the current situation became the current situation, which he did not expect. The Master of the Tiandihui Xiang who was responsible for Henan affairs was staying in Gaojie's camp at that time and was still killed in the battle with the Qing army. In the affairs of Xuzhou and Bozhou, Yin Shixun himself was responsible for Nanjing affairs, which caused the command of the Tiandihui and other areas to be paralyzed. Emperor Hongguang wanted to borrow power from the Tiandihui and gave up because he could not find the Yinshixun.

After hearing this, Song Zhiyong and the other two looked ugly. Although Xuzhou was taken back, the price was too high. Even with Guo Huaiyi and their reinforcements, the strength to break the siege of Bozhou was too weak.

Yin Shixun made such a big mistake and didn't dare to meet Emperor Hongguang at all. He thought he would have to commit crimes and make meritorious service before meeting him, otherwise the emperor would not have to cut off his head! "Three generals, there are more important things at the moment! Twenty miles ahead, Duoduo had already set up a net of heaven and earth to wait for the three generals, with about 40,000 troops, and the purpose was to annihilate the three generals' forces." After Yin Shixun returned to the jurisdiction of Nanming, he was shocked and immediately engaged in the collection of intelligence. Every moment, the carrier pigeons of the Tiandihui Society handed the information to him. He had sent a special person to send these information to Emperor Hongguang three days ago. Based on the information he had and his geographical location, he came to find the Third General.

Song Zhiyong and others looked at me, and I looked at you, and they felt their throats dry. The range of the horses they sent was five miles away. If the Tartars had a large pocket array, they could have surrounded and annihilated them without their defense. They would have mixed 40,000 cavalry against 20,000 infantry and cavalry, and the possibility of them being annihilated is very high, and it is not for the three of them to look like earth.

Tian Xiong looked at Yin Shixun, "Shixun, how could you know so much?" Tian Xiong became more cautious. At this time, no one could believe it except the people around him. Who would guarantee that this Yin Shixun was not sent by the Tartars to lead them to the bait? He didn't think so now. If he suffers, there will be no place to complain about his grievances. After hearing what Tian Xiong said, Song Zhiyong and Ma Degong also reacted, and the three of them looked at Yin Shixun one after another.

He also had to say that Yin Shixun had carefully considered it. He expected that Tian Xiong and others might not believe his words. Yin Shixun smiled slightly, "Everything Yin said is true, General Tian, ​​please send a long-distance exploration to find out immediately. Yin will stay here for the three generals to verify it. In addition, although Yin does not have an official position now, he is still an alternate official of the Ministry of Personnel." As he said that, Yin Shixun handed Tian Xiong the "proof materials" prepared in advance.

After seeing the materials, Tian Xiong immediately ordered the explorer to go for reconnaissance. Time has not passed very long. The explorer handed the reconnaissance proceeds to Tian Xiong and others. Tian Xiong looked at Yin Shixun with a bitter face, "It seems that this time I can't get through. The Tartars' troops are about 50,000, and I guess our whereabouts have been under the surveillance of the Tatars. I was not going to do anything before, because there were many rivers in the geography and it was inconvenient to set up an ambush. Now they have arranged a pocket array to wait for us to drill. If it weren't for Shixun this time, I would probably have a slim chance of survival!"

The reason why Song Zhiyong wanted to return to Bozhou from Luyi was because the Qing army besieged Bozhou was weak in the west. Unexpectedly, this perception puts himself in an unfavorable situation. But then again, since the Qing army was willing to siege the city and attack the aid, it was still the same path they took.

"The three generals don't have to worry. Yin has a clever plan that may help our army get rid of the unfavorable situation in front of us, and our army's target should not be focused on Bozhou. Since the Tatars can stare at our reinforcements, we can also stare at their reinforcements!" Yin Shixun had already formulated a combat plan, "The Tartars' purpose is to wipe out our troops, so they will definitely not attack the vanguard. One of the three generals can lead two thousand troops to the head, and the distance between them and the large group of troops can be longer. In this way, the Tartars will definitely let these two thousand troops go in order to gain the big head. This first step is to escape the two thousand cavalry troops, and then we are like this..."

Song Zhiyong and the other two were quite moved after hearing Yin Shixun's plan. The loss of some people made them feel reluctant to leave. However, in order to preserve their strength and get rid of the siege of the Tartars and avoid head-on confrontation with the Tartars, they had no other better plan. After discussion, Tian Xiong and the other two nodded in favor. As for who led two thousand cavalry to take the lead, the three of them finally decided to let Tian Xiong take the lead, which was also what Tian Xiong fought for himself.

Tian Xiong didn't understand Song Zhiyong but knew that Song Zhiyong was very steady, but he knew too much about Horse Degong. He had no choice but to charge in the battle, but the overall awareness of taking the overall situation was definitely not as good as him. Although the strength of the two thousand cavalry was very small compared to the Tartars, it was like a loach in a river. It was not so easy for the Tartars to catch this loach. Maybe this loach could cause a big wave! Therefore, Tian Xiong was worried about handing over these two thousand cavalry to Ma Degong and Song Zhiyong. Through the strategy explained by Yin Shixun, Tian Xiong knew that Yin Shixun had a strategy in his belly. Since Yin Shixun expressed his willingness to stay in the camp to help, that was better. With Yin Shixun's staff and Song Zhiyong's safe horse Degong's bravery, the strength of the large group of people would definitely be preserved, so Yin Shixun's plan afterwards was perfect.

Just as midnight, Tian Xiong led two thousand cavalry to advance three miles away from the main force, and the cavalry was not very fast, so the team seemed a little slow and unformed.

Shang Kexi frowned when he heard the report of his personal soldiers. He looked at Li Chengdong beside him, "General Li, what do you think?" Shang Kexi came from Guide Mansion, and as soon as he arrived outside Bozhou City, Duoduo arranged this important task.

Li Chengdong thought about it, "Prince, I think it's okay to let these men go. The key is to put them in the main force of the Ming army reinforcements. If you eliminate the main force, what else can those about two thousand men be used to?"

Monk Li Chengdong and Shang Kexi were both Han officials, so sometimes they had a "common language". Shang Kexi then turned his attention to Suksaha, the commander of Zhengbai Banner of Duoduo. "What do you think the commander?" Previously, Suksaha's status was much higher than Shang Kexi, and Shang Kexi was a new prince, which was even higher than Suksaha.

Suksaha nodded, "I see General Li is right, so let them go and pass on me. I will not attack and let it go." Suksaha issued an order without obtaining Shang Kexi's opinion, which made Shang Kexi's face look ugly, but Shang Kexi immediately covered it up.
