Chapter 105: Entering the City

It's just that although Liu Yongxi entered the city, he asked that the city gate be controlled by the Yue Ming army before entering the city, and the Nanchang defenders wanted to change the Chengtian banner and change to the name of the first year of Chengtian.

In Jin Shenghuan's eyes, solving Liu Yongxi's matter is already half successful: "This Yue Guogong thinks so beautifully!" Now that he's in trouble, we'll at most make concessions on the issue of switching to the Chengtian era, and we'll have to wait until he enters the city to talk about the other issues. ”

Although the entire Nanchang City is now surrounded by the Yue Ming army, he knows very well that the reason why Liu Yongxi changed his attitude so quickly must be that he has encountered big trouble on the battlefield, and he is really sorry for himself if he doesn't take advantage of the fire to rob now.

And the development of things is just as Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren expected, although Liu Yongxi put forward a lot of additional conditions, but Huang Renlong, as a negotiator, argued with reason, and the final condition was only that the Nanchang garrison changed to the banner of the Chengtian Dynasty before entering the city, and the rest of the conditions were almost carried out in accordance with Jin Shenghuan's intentions, and even the soldiers and horses brought by Liu Yongxi into the city were only increased from 500 to 800.

"Eight hundred people are easy to do!" Wang Deren felt that only 800 people were not a problem at all, anyway, no matter how the situation changed, as long as they rushed to attack the Yue Ming army, they would be the winners: "Now the Yue Ming army is in a hurry, as long as we take the lead and defeat the enemy army, whether we kill Liu Yongxi or not, in the end we will win a big victory!" ”

The reason why they think that their side has won a big victory is naturally because their real purpose is not to solve Liu Yongxi, as long as they solve the elite of the Yue Ming army that entered the city, it is the biggest victory, and the Yue Ming army will definitely lose its morale if it is in a hurry, and the siege of Nanchang can naturally break itself without a fight.

Of course, it would be best to kill and capture Liu Yongxi, but even if Liu Yongxi escaped in the chaos and severely damaged the Yue Ming army, it would be a good ending, but Jin Shenghuan confessed: "Jianwu Hou, don't be merciful to the subordinates who secretly communicate with Jinhua thieves!" ”

Wang Deren immediately laughed: "Don't worry, Changguo Gong just rest assured, I have locked up all those suspected generals, and I guarantee that there will be no problems!" ”

Jin Shenghuan also heard that Wang Deren had locked up many generals suspected of being "thieves": "Then tomorrow, as long as you give an order, you must kill them all!" ”

If the previous two days of Nanchang City was a murderous situation under the city, today's Nanchang City seems to be a harmonious atmosphere, from time to time there are traders wandering in front of the two sides, and even messengers are in contact with each other, and the Nanchang City Gate, which has been closed for many days, is also open, waiting for Emperor Chengtian to enter the city and negotiate with Jin Shenghuan.

Jin Shenghuan looked at this scene with a dreamlike feeling, he really didn't expect such a simple strategy to be successful, he told Huang Renlong beside him: "It seems that our Yue Guogong is definitely in big trouble!" ”

And Huang Renlong lowered his voice and said: "I have already found out what is going on from the Yue Ren camp, it is the brothers Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu from Haizhou who have been cleared again. ”

Although they have not worked together, Jin Shenghuan has heard the names of Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu brothers, and knows that although they only have three or four thousand soldiers and horses, they belong to the existence of strong combat effectiveness in the original Jiangnan Qing army, and since they occupied Haizhou, they have recruited troops everywhere and their strength has reached a new level.

If the Zhang brothers surrender again, Liu Yongxi's Jianghuai defense will tear up a big leak, so he gloated and said: "Who told this Yue Guogong to be in a hurry to deal with us in the same room, he has only taken Jiangbei for a total of two months and has a completely unstable foothold, and now the main forces are in Jiangxi, Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu are afraid that there will be a big problem in Jianghuai's defense!" ”

Wang Deren didn't understand why Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu suddenly cleared up again: "There won't be a problem with this news, right?" How could Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu suddenly be cleared? ”

Huang Renlong inquired about all the situation clearly: "I heard that Zhang Boyi of Xuzhou and Wang Zhiren of Huai'an wanted to solve Li Yuchun in Sizhou, but they didn't expect that Li Yuchun had not solved it yet, and first forced Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu in Haizhou to rebel, and now the Zhang brothers not only surrendered to the Qing Dynasty but also asked for help from the Qing State, and it is said that the Qing State has sent a large army to meet the Zhang brothers!" ”

Hearing Huang Renlong say this, Jin Shenghuan's face was full of joy: "God help me, God help me, since there is something in Jiangbei, then Liu Yongxi will definitely enter the city obediently, and when the time comes, he will listen to my orders, this time it will make the Jinhua thief return in vain!" ”

Although the city gate is now open, and there are traders coming and going between the camps of the two armies, the defenders of the city are on high alert, and Jin Shenghuan even came to the east gate to greet Liu Yongxi's arrival: "Order the brothers, quickly change the banner, from now on we will change the banner of the Chengtian Dynasty!" ”

In more than half a year, Jin Shenghuan's army also changed from the official army of the Hongzhi Dynasty to Zuo Liangyu's Jingnan Army, and then from Zuo Liangyu and Zuo Mengeng's Jingnan Army to the Qing Army.

Therefore, Jin Shenghuan's officers and soldiers immediately changed to the banner of the Chengtian Dynasty, although the emperor's surname outside the city gate is Liu Bu's surname Zhu, but when the soldiers eat food, everything is done according to the will of the officials, and Huang Renlong next to Jin Shenghuan asked: "The Marquis of Jianwu came over with his soldiers and horses, do you want to let them come now?" ”

Although Wang Deren has imprisoned all those suspected generals, Jin Shenghuan is still not at ease with Wang Deren.

Although it was his idea to kill Wang Tizhong, it was Wang Deren who was still Wang Tizhong's deputy at the time, although Wang Deren claimed that he had a lot of feelings for Bai Wang and assassinated Wang Tizhong to avenge Bai Wang, but Jin Shenghuan always felt that since Wang Deren could kill Wang Tizhong, he could kill him Jin Shenghuan.

Therefore, he made a decision as soon as possible: "Don't let him come, if you alarm Yue Guogong, you will be in big trouble!" Renlong, please go to the city again, whether this big thing can be done depends on your performance! ”

Huang Renlong said neatly: "Chang Guogong, leave this matter to me!" ”

Not long after Huang Renlong left the city, Jin Shenghuan had already seen Liu Yongxi and his eight hundred elites.

Although it is nominally eight hundred elites, Jin Shenghuan carefully glanced at it and felt that Liu Yongxi must have set up an ambush, and the elite army around him was definitely more than eight hundred people, almost five hundred infantry and four hundred cavalry, according to the establishment of the Yue Ming Army, it was one battalion of infantry and two battalions of cavalry.

But Jin Shenghuan was not surprised: "Huang Renlong did a good job!" ”

Now that he has made up his mind to solve Liu Yongxi, what is the difference between Liu Yongxi having 800 elites or 900 elites around him, and more importantly, although Jin Shenghuan said "talk about it after entering the city", he will not put Liu Yongxi and these 900 elites into Nanchang City.

The corners of his mouth were already full of smiles!

He felt that the 900 men and horses around Liu Yongxi were his starting capital, and as long as he hit this elite hard, it would be a devastating blow to the morale of the Yue Ming army, and he even specially explained: "Wait for everything to be dispatched and commanded by me, and I will do whatever I ask you to do!" ”

Although Huang Renlong did a good job, but in Jin Shenghuan's eyes, this is also a pawn that can be sacrificed, but at this time there was a small accident outside the city, although Liu Yongxi made up his mind to enter the city to negotiate with Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren, but two women on horses rushed over to dissuade them.

One of them should be Gao Jie's widow Mrs. Xing, and the other may be Li Xiangjun, who is quite famous in Liu Yongxi's army, but unfortunately it is too far away from the city gate, Jin Shenghuan can't see what these two beauties look like, but he thinks that Liu Yongxi will choose to enter the city in the end.

Since ancient times, it is impossible to have both beauties in the country, although this Chengtian Emperor is also a hero, but everything must pay attention to the world, in this case His Majesty King Yue will definitely make the wisest choice.

And the expectation of things was just as Jin Shenghuan expected, the persuasion and tears of the two women did not stop the pace of Emperor Chengtian, and with Liu Yongxi's order, twenty horsemen had already galloped towards the east gate.

Now Jin Shenghuan has become a little entangled, although he also knows that this Yue Guogong is definitely not a simple person to expel the Qing army from Jiangnan in less than a year, so he has already decided to attack as long as he seizes the opportunity, but is Liu Yongxi too careful?

He actually sent only twenty horsemen as the vanguard of the city? What can you do with just twenty horsemen?

Jin Shenghuan was originally going to attack halfway into the city, but now he had to put these twenty horsemen into the city, and he had to explain to his cronies: "Give me these twenty horses to watch closely, and no one is allowed to run around!" ”

Although most of the officers and soldiers did not know that Jin Shenghuan was ready to do it at any time, so they had been waiting for the order of the officials, but these cronies around him knew very well what Jin Shenghuan wanted to do, so as soon as Jin Shenghuan gave the order, a large group of Jin Shenghuan's personal soldiers ran over as soon as possible and guarded this team of cavalry in the name of "making friends".

But I don't know why, Jin Shenghuan always felt a little uneasy, but he didn't know what the problem was, and at this time, Liu Yongxi, who was outside the city, gave another order, and sent twenty or thirty horsemen to the city gate.

Although the situation is still in Jin Shenghuan's control, Jin Shenghuan feels that this Yue Guogong is too ink, if he sends one or two hundred cavalry into the city, he will definitely order the officers and soldiers to fire a salvo, but what does it mean to send twenty or thirty cavalry to send it?

He is also the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how can he interfere with the specific command of twenty or thirty horsemen!
