Chapter 278: Someone from Handan

If Wei Yijie's words were for Zheng Zhilong to hear, he would definitely laugh happily. Just like when he just heard the news of Emperor Chongzhen's army of the Northern Expedition to the Manchu Dynasty, he would have a very strong sense of unreality.

But in fact, Wei Yijie is really not wrong.

Handan's 'people's heart' is here in the Qing Dynasty.

Whether it is the gentry or the common people, for the people of Handan, there is at least one way to live with the Manchu Qing Dynasty now, and when they encounter the Ming army going north, they are afraid that there will not be even bones left.

Xu Dingguo and Gao Jie, where is the "Central Plains Day of the North of the King's Division", it is purely bandits who came down the mountain to sweep. His behavior is exactly the same as that of Li Zicheng and other thieves back then.

Therefore, in the eyes of the people of Handan, the Ming army in the north is no longer a king, but a mortal enemy who does not share the sky.

If they could, they would do their best to assist Luo Jinxiu in defending Handan City.

The entry point of Wei Yijie's strategy is like this, "The thief army killed and plundered all the way, and obtained a lot of goods, so the army's heart was boiling. However, if he is tired without a fight, and when he sees the officers and soldiers blindly going north, his heart will be arrogant and arrogant, and his military discipline will also decline early. The students also thought that Zhongcheng could first make a man with lofty ideals go to the thief army to surrender, and bluntly said that the official army had gone north, and the gentry in the city were willing to give 100,000 taels of money, 1,000 stones of grain, and 100 pigs and sheep in order to seek peace. The thief will be magnanimous. The thief may be insatiable in his heart, but he will answer in the face. At that time, whether Zhongcheng wants to make the thief army enter the city and ambush it, or is willing to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to send another warrior to attack, it can be easily achieved. ”

Luo Jinxiu was overjoyed when she heard this, she never thought that this little show in front of her could really come up with such a resource. "This strategy works, this strategy works." Although he had never fought, he knew more or less the truth. Isn't the Ming army behind him just like the little show in front of him said.

With such an arrogant army, it is not easy to earn it?

And as long as he Luo Jinxiu can win a battle in the southern barbarians, he will invigorate the morale of the army, and he will also explain to Yanjing, he doesn't care what happens to Handan in the future, anyway, he can continue to retreat to Baoding.

"If Zhongcheng is willing to use the student's strategy, he should make his henchmen guard the four gates, and be sure not to let the news leak."

Wei Yijie was also very unhappy to see his strategy recognized. How do you know what Luo Jinxiu really thinks in her heart?

It was only after he heard what the Ming army had done on the way north, and under "righteous indignation", he made a plan. Even his best friends Shen Hanguang and Shen Fu Meng don't know about it.

Shen Hanguang won't mix with the Manchu Qing. His father, Shin Jiayin, was a former Taifu temple priest, and at the time of the change of Koshin, he was patrolling the imperial horses in. After Li Zicheng broke through Juyong Pass, he besieged Jingshi, he was not in the city, and the situation could still take refuge and hide. Others persuaded Shen Jiayin not to enter Beijing, but Shen Jiayin said bluntly: "I know that the Beijing master will not keep it, but my monarch is here, and the safety is shared, so how can I escape." ”

As a result, on the way to Jinmen, he was hit by the rain and contracted the cold, and then he became ill and was only forty years old. Then his old mother, who was healthy and healthy, went with her.

The Shen family is pitiful and pitiful.

After the siege of Jinmen was lifted, Shen Hanguang returned to his hometown with the coffins of his grandmother and father, and he was not intercepted along the way.

Now that Shen Hanguang's filial piety period has passed, Wei Yijie came to Guangping Mansion this time to visit his best friend, but he didn't want to encounter the current military disaster.

That Shen Hanguang also heard the rumors that the military discipline of the Ming army in the north was corrupt and the six relatives did not recognize it, so he did not dare to be careless, and prepared to go to Guangyang Mountain in the west of Shahe County to take refuge with his old mother and two younger brothers. But Wei Yijie came to Handan alone!

The reason is very simple, that is, Wei Yijie's "righteousness" lies more in the interests of his own class.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty knew to protect the interests of the gentry, and Zhu Ming's preferential treatment remained the same. As a result, now that the Ming army is heading north to recover the lost territory, the interests of their gentry are no longer guaranteed. Their scholars were pressed on their heads by a group of ** soldiers and bandits, and the news brought by the rich gentry who fled north in the Central Plains made Wei Yijie decisively intolerable!

And he has to think about his own family. Judging from the news from the south, Liu Zhaoji and Cao Bianjiao are still good, but Liu Liangzuo, Xu Dingguo and Gao Jie are extremely hateful. It's just that the one who killed in Guangping Mansion was Xu Dingguo's department, how could Wei Yijie ask his generation to go through Guangping and go to Shunde Mansion (Xingtai)?

The best way to do that is to thwart the momentum of the Xu army. It is guaranteed that in just a few days, Liu Zhaoji and Cao Bianjiaojun have already taken their place.

He is not a child anymore, how inconsistent the Ming army is, Wei Yijie knows it very well.

So, he wasn't really out of righteous indignation. But there is a reason for things, and it is always best to be high-sounding and righteous!

"The general is here?" Xu Guang's heart was happy, and he came to Xu Er'an's big tent with brisk steps, but he didn't dare to hold it up, and saluted the sergeants on both sides: "I'm still tired of going to say goodbye." ”

The pro-soldier saw Xu Guang and smiled: "What else does Mr. Xu want, just go in by yourself!" ”

Xu Guangqi was originally a talent in Chenzhou under the Kaifeng Mansion, and only after the Tartar came was he admitted to the Juren, and when Xu Jun killed Chenzhou, he was the first to offer his knees. And because this person's uncle's family had some twists and turns with the Xu family (Xu Dingguo is from Taikang and belongs to Chenzhou), he was gently let go, not only that, but he was also placed under Xu Er'an's account to make documents.

The soldiers around Xu Er'an all knew the origin of this man, and they had no respect for him. Don't look at what you just said, but there is a hidden mystery, and if you are not careful, you will not be able to get up from the pit.

Xu Guangcai won't go in directly, this Xu Er'an doesn't look like he is a military general, but he attaches great importance to etiquette, so he won't touch his head.

At present, the Ming soldiers are advancing like a bamboo, and this Zhongxing trend has been achieved. Although Xu Dingguo is a military general, he has made meritorious contributions to the Northern Expedition, and his future prospects are unlimited. He wants to tie up Xu Er'anba, and his future is all tied to the Xu family.

When the pro-soldiers went in, Xu Guang turned a blind eye to the white eyes of the pro-soldiers on the side, and took care of tidying up his clothes to make himself look well-dressed, and then after the pro-soldiers who went in to pass the pro-soldiers came back, he held his head high, paced the square steps, and stepped into the big tent.

And he saw that Xu Er'an was holding a beautiful woman in his arms, and she was disheveled. When I saw Xu Guang, I didn't see a positive shape, and the right hand was inserted under the woman's clothes and was not taken out.

"Student Xu Guang has seen the general."

Well, this Xu Er'an doesn't want to be called a little general yet.

"Xu Juren is here, what's the matter?" Xu Er'an said unhappily, he almost didn't directly say that he was about to let go of the fart, didn't he see that his nature had already come.

"General Rongyu, the student has a happy event to report to the general!"

"Oh, what's the joy?" Xu Er'an's mind was still not on business.

"Today, a scribe came to the army, saying that he had something important and wanted to ask to see the general. The general sent someone to tell the students to meet him, and the students ran to see him, but the man came from Handan. Speaking of this, Xu Guang felt a little complacent in his heart. He had also heard of the names of Handan Zhao Zhan and Zhao Qiushui, but didn't he still have to whisper to him today?

A knife is always harder than a person's neck.

"From Handan?" Xu Er'an sat up sharply, and a look of solemnity appeared on his face. "How so?"

"Luo Jinxiu's dog official has fled, and the gentlemen of Handan are willing to offer 100,000 taels of silver, 1,000 stones of grain, and 100 pigs and sheep for peace." When Xu Guang spoke, there was an irrepressible sarcastic laugh on his face.

There is no soldier in this Handan City, and it will be taken by the army in the blink of an eye. When the time comes, the army will gain more than what they say, and everything in the city will not be theirs.

"Good, good, good. is such a Luo Jinxiu, he is really my God of Wealth. ”

"Tell him that General Ben has answered." Xu Er'an suddenly heard such a happy event, and he could seize the city and get the money without much effort, and his face was full of wild smiles.
