"Lord Commander, the high thief is about to kill Wei Hui Mansion, you have an idea."

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief. The thieves are menacing, so I think we should retreat as soon as possible. There's no point in doing that. ”

"Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, Lord Commander, you have to think clearly!"

In the yamen of Wei Hui's general army, a group of deputy generals, staff generals, and guerrillas said a word from you, and Zu Kefa was upset when he heard it.

He waved his hand impatiently and said, "Enough! I will make my own decision whether to retreat or keep my book, and I don't need you to teach me! ”

Zu Kefa glanced at everyone fiercely, trying to calm his mood.

According to the scout's report, Gao Jie's army was heading straight for Weihui's mansion, and it seemed that he was not going to attack Luoyang in the west.

In this case, Zu Kefa didn't have much heart to stick to it, but there must be a suitable reason to retreat to Beizhili.

Zu Kefa pondered but couldn't think of any good explanation, and scolded and scolded: "You guys will be dumb again? Quickly give Ben a way to come out. ”

The generals looked at each other. It was your old man who told us to shut up, and now it is your old man who tells us to find a way. What kind of trouble is your old man?

Adjutant General Daniel Zhang's eyes rolled, and he hugged Zu Kefa and said, "Lord Commander, let's just burn Wei Huicheng with a fire." Then you wrote a note to the imperial court, saying that the thieves were powerful, and you had no choice but to burn down the grain and straw arsenal in the city and take the initiative to evacuate in order to save the troops? ”

Zu Kefa frowned when he heard this.

"Doesn't that mean that the general is still cowardly before he fights?"

At most, this method can alleviate some of Zukefa's guilt, but in the end he is still guilty.

That's not going to work!

"Well, that's not what the end means, that's not what it means......"

Daniel Zhang was embarrassed, and hurriedly stepped back.

"Lord Commander, otherwise we will behead a batch of heads, so that the court side can also be explained."

Guerrilla Zhao Wu suggested: "If we kill a group of thieves, the court may be able to reward them." ”

This Zhao guerrilla is obviously extremely proficient in this way. As a military general, if you don't know how to kill good people, it is difficult to climb up. After all, the number of real enemy troops is limited, how can there be so many heads to chop off for you.

And the number of ordinary people is too much, kill as many as they want, cut as many as they want.

Zu Kefa snorted coldly and said, "You are really stupid. Can you still find someone in this Weihui Mansion who hasn't shaved his hair? ”

He was stunned by Zhao Wu's question.

yes, he didn't think of that.

Since the Qing court issued the decree on shaving hair, it has been strictly implemented in all parts of his rule.

In the prefectures and counties of Beizhili and Henan, all men must shave their hair and braid, and if there is disobedience, they will be immediately beheaded.

The so-called head without hair, hair without hair, is this truth.

As a result, the people of Weihui Mansion are basically bare except for a small handful of money rat tails on the back of their heads.

Even if Zu Kefa ordered the heads of hundreds of thousands of people to be beheaded, there was no hair on these heads.

And the Ming army commanded by Gao Jie is tied up, and this alone is unreasonable.

In the past, when Zhao Wu did not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, he often killed good people and risked their merits, using the heads of the people to pretend to be Tartars, in exchange for rewards.

But at that time, the hair was shaved off and braided.

It is easy to shave off the hair of a dead man, but it is impossible to make a dead man's bald head grow hair.

Zhao Wu made a very stupid mistake.

Zukefa now understands that it is impossible to expect these fools to come up with a way, and he still has to think for himself.

It is impossible to lead the water to the east, and Gao Jie is not interested in Luoyang at all.

It doesn't work to kill the good and take the risk, do you really want to fight with Gao Jie in a dignified manner?

As soon as this idea came to mind, Zu Kefa pressed it down.

With just these two or thirty thousand rabble, if you really want to fight with Gao Jie, I am afraid that you will be swallowed and there will be no scum left.

"Lord Commander, there will be a plan in the end."

Qian Mu, a staff general who has rarely spoken out, hugged his fists and said: "Why don't you use a discordant plan for the chief soldier?" ”

"Discord meter?"

Zukefa's eyebrows furrowed, and a gleam appeared in his eyes.

Interesting, kind of interesting.

"You go on."

"Yes!"

Qian Mu was encouraged, and said loudly: "Gao Jie's fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses can be described as strong soldiers, so is the puppet emperor really so relieved?" Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing recently launched a rebellion, but they made Shandong restless. ”

Zukova nodded.

He also heard about Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing's rebellion against Ming, although both of them were finally killed and their subordinates were wiped out, but they still set off a lot of waves.

Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing's strength is definitely not as good as Gao Jie's. If it was Gao Jie who started the rebellion, I'm afraid it would be even more difficult for the small court to deal with in the south, right?

Monarchs and ministers are single-minded, and it is not easy to do it.

Yue Fei is loyal enough, he wasn't suspicious of Zhao Gou, and he sent twelve gold medals in a row and called him back.

Even Chongzhen can't do it, don't doubt it, don't use suspicious people, can a fifteen or sixteen-year-old doll do it?

Zukofa doesn't believe it!

So the discord meter is indeed a good method.

"Then tell me, how should Ben do this divisive plan?"

"Lord General Soldier, we can write a letter in the name of Gao Jie's generals, accusing Gao Jie of secretly clearing up and plotting rebellion."

Qian Mu paused for a moment, and then said: "At the same time, the chief soldier wrote a personal letter and sent someone to send it to Gao Jie's camp to persuade him to surrender. In this way, Gao Jie is yellow mud fell into the crotch of his pants, and it was not but was also. ”

Zukefa was a little moved.

Although Qian Mu's words were a little vulgar, they were not rough.

Since there is a need for separation, it is natural that we cannot start from just one aspect.

Both the monarch and the ministers must do a good job.

"Well, do as you say. Is it just too late? ”

Zu Kefa still has one last worry, that is, before this discord plan can take effect, Gao Jie will defeat Weihui Mansion.

After all, Kaifeng is such a strong city, and it will be conquered in a few days.

Wei Hui's city wall is far less solid than Kaifeng City, and he can carry it for a few days, and Zu Kefa has no bottom in his heart.

"From Wei Hui to Nanjing, it won't take a few days if you are fast. A round trip for more than ten days is enough. ”

Qian Mu swallowed and spitted at the mouth: "The last general thinks that as long as the chief soldier orders the strong wall to clear the wilderness, he can still hold it for more than ten days." ”

When people are faced with difficulties, they will try to think about the situation in the direction they want.

The same is true of Zukoffa.

The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was not a problem for him to hold on for ten days. As for why Jin Yuhe threw away Kaifeng in less than five days, it must have been a major mistake on his part, and there was a serious problem with the strategy of defending the city.

Naturally, he Zu Kefa would not make this kind of mistake, so it should be no problem to stick to it for more than ten days and drag it until the discord plan takes effect.
