The Qing army garrison in Nanyang City was named Zhao Gan. Because his sister climbed up to the high branch of Ebilong and became a concubine, Zhao Gan also gained considerable benefits. His official position was getting higher and higher, and he actually reached the high position of the General of Nanyang.

But just a few days later, news came that the Ming army was about to fight the Northern Expedition.

Zhao has heard about the situation in Jiangnan. The Ming army was unstoppable and the Qing army could not find the north.

The Qing generals died and fled, and had no temper at all.

From this perspective, the strength of the Ming army is now far stronger than that of the Qing army.

Of course, Zhao Gan didn't think that his ability was stronger than that of the Qing generals. The reason why he was able to reach this day was because his sister was blowing beside Ebilong's side.

When it comes to strategies in his heart, he is no different from a big and rough man.

But now the Ming army has attacked Nanyang, and the leader of the troops is still Li Laiheng, known as the little tiger.

This person is the adopted son of a tiger, Li Guo, and is deeply trusted by the Thirteen Kuidong families and is praised as a common leader.

Although the thirteen families were nominally all Ming army generals, they were all awarded titles.

But they still retained a lot of things that were old camping.

Li Laiheng was praised by his old age at a young age, which proved that he had something to do.

Zhao Gan sent someone to inquire. Li Laiheng's favorite siege tactic is to use gunpowder to blow up the city wall.

This move is said to be successful every time. Although the Qing army in the south knew that Li Laiheng would use this move, they could not defend it.

This feeling is so stuffy.

Zhao Gansi thought about it over and over again, feeling that he could not sit still and wait for death.

He decided to send a messenger to negotiate with Li Laiheng first, and delay the Ming army's siege.

At the same time, try to get reinforcements as much as possible.

As long as there are enough reinforcements and enough number of people, the Qing army will still have the power to fight.

Of course, the messenger sent must be his confidant, otherwise it would not be a joke if it was heard by the court.

After being charged with collusion with the enemy, how many heads are Zhao Gan enough to cut?

In the end, Zhao Gan decided to let his brother-in-law be the messenger.

He Fang felt very aggrieved, but he dared not speak out.

He thought to himself that if he didn't agree, maybe Zhao Gan would turn his back on him immediately.

He relies entirely on Zhao to make a living. If he doesn't have this relationship, he will definitely be worse than a pig or a dog.

In the end, He Fang gritted his teeth and agreed.

But he made two requests.

First, Zhao Gan wanted to give him promises and certain power to deal with the situation on time.

As long as the Ming army makes some requests, he will not be embarrassed to deal with it.

Secondly, Zhao Gan wanted to send an army to meet him.

If the Ming army regrets this, as long as He Fang escapes from the Ming army camp, he still has a certain chance to escape.

After hearing this, Zhao Gan nodded silently.

He thought why he wanted to make any request.

That's it?

This is not difficult to agree.

Zhao fucked, smashed, and agreed immediately.

He didn't want to delay, so he ordered his orders to clean up and prepare and then left the city to go to the Ming army camp.

However, Li Laiheng and the generals of Kuidong were discussing their specific plans to attack Nanyang, but suddenly they heard a personal soldier report that an envoy asked to see him.

Li Laiheng was stunned when he heard this and quickly asked where the messenger came from.

When Li Laiheng learned that he came from Nanyang City, he was stunned.

The Qing army generals asked for surrender again?

Because he encountered a precedent when attacking Fengyang Mansion before, Li Laiheng didn't feel incomprehensible.

Sometimes, momentum is so mysterious.

As long as you fight, the other party will deliberately avoid the battle with you.

When encountering such a good thing, Li Laiheng naturally could not refuse.

He immediately ordered his personal soldiers to lead the envoy from Nanyang.

Seeing this, Liu Tichun carefully reminded: "Little tiger, you should be careful to prevent any fraud."

Li Laiheng nodded slightly and said, "Don't Liu Shi's heart, I know what I think."

Of course, Li Laiheng knew that some things should not be believed in.

He will know the specificity and he will be able to master it.

Soon He Fang was taken into the big tent.

Seeing a group of Ming generals with large figures and big horse golden swords sitting there, He Fang subconsciously swallowed and spitted.

Good, this is too scary.

If he hadn't been mentally prepared, he would have been scared to pee.

He Fang had previously analyzed the psychology of Li Laiheng and others, and forced himself to smile and said, "The villain is paying homage to Duke Lin."

"Oh? You actually know the title of my Duke."

Li Laiheng was still a little surprised by this. After all, this was a title given by Emperor Yongli, and the people in front of him were doing things for the Qing court.

This person even knew his title, and it can be said that he was really interested.

"Duke Lin is famous, and no one in the world knows. My general admires Duke Lin very much and often tells in the ears of villains that Duke Lin is a great hero of the world."

As the saying goes, you can wear it thousands of times, but you can't wear it.

Although he knew that the other party's words were basically compliments, Li Laiheng just listened very comfortably.

"What's the matter with you?"

Li Laiheng asked in awe without anger.

"The villain is here to send a letter to my general, hoping to cooperate with Duke Lin."

"cooperate?"

Li Laiheng was stunned. Didn’t he just offer the city?

What else to cooperate?

"Speak and listen."

Li Laiheng suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked in a deep voice.

"That's right. My general is in charge of the general of Nanyang. Basically, the army of Nanyang is under his jurisdiction. Now that the general has arrived, my general wants to sacrifice Nanyang City. But... But in this way, the Qing army in Luoyang and Kaifeng will be on guard and will inevitably mobilize large troops to reinforce from the capital, Shanxi and other places. In this way, even if the Duke of Lin takes Nanyang without bloodshed, the next battle will not be easy to fight."

After He Fang finished speaking a paragraph, he was already ecstatic.

His eloquence really came in handy.

If it were someone else, I would be scared to the point of being weak in my calves and I couldn't even read the words.

The lobbyist messenger is really not something that anyone can do.

"So what my general means is that Duke Lin can bypass Nanyang City and march directly northward. The general of my family is to pretend that he did not see Duke Lin. In this way, Luoyang did not receive warnings in Kaifeng, so he would definitely be relaxed in defense. Duke Lin may be able to take him down in one fell swoop."

After He Fang said this, he stood respectfully, waiting for Li Laiheng's reply.

Li Laiheng frowned and thought to himself secretly.

This is the truth, but why does he think something is wrong?

It means that Zhao Qian made no promise.

If Li Laiheng loses the battle, he may take a bite in reverse.

If Li Laiheng had a strong momentum all the way, Zhao Qian could have surrendered to Xiancheng after the Kaifeng was defeated.

Anyway, he is sure to make a profit and never loses.
