Gao Chen pondered for a while, and also felt that it was difficult to make a judgment: "Chief of Staff, that's the case." His words are indeed very reasonable, but his subordinates always have a feeling that he is lying to us. ”

Xu Lang thought for a while, pushed open the door and shouted, "Come on, go and invite Fan Wencheng." ”

Fan Wencheng entered the room, and Xu Lang put on a smiling face: "Master Fan, you have also seen today's scene." Tao Min really came to Golden State to negotiate with us, and I don't need to relay what he said. Bachelor Fan can return to Shengjing today, and the official still says the same thing, we don't care about the matter between you and Taomin, what we have to do is to pacify Li Zicheng. ”

"General Xu." Fan Wencheng asked, "If Tao Min really wants to rebel against our emperor, do you really not help each other?" ”

Xu Lang smiled and asked, "Does Master Fan want us to help you or help Tao Min?" ”

Fan Wencheng didn't ask again, and arched his hand at Xu Lang: "Thank you, General Xu, this official will return to Shengjing today." ”

Fan Wencheng walked out of the house, Xu Lang found a pen and paper and quickly wrote a text message: "Gao Chen, hurry up and send it out." Don't send people, just release the carrier pigeons in Beijing, the sooner the better, Chief Chiang needs it. ”

"Yes, sir." Gao Chen took the letter and turned around to go out.

"Gao Chen, you wait first." Xu Lang shouted Gao Chen again and said to himself, "This is not right. ”

Gao Chen looked at Xu Lang in confusion: "Sir, what's wrong?" ”

Xu Lang seemed to suddenly understand: "The original letter is sent." I will write another letter and find someone to send it to Beijing in person, and I must personally hand it over to Jiang Beiming. ”

Xu Lang suddenly had a flash of inspiration just now, even if Fan Wencheng returned to Shengjing, even if Huang Taiji really turned his face with Tao Min, would there definitely be a fight between them. Fan Wencheng's last question was worried about something, was he worried about the Ming Dynasty helping Tao Min deal with Huang Taiji.

Whether it is Huang Taiji or Fan Wencheng, including Tao Min, they are not fools, they will not be unaware of the consequences once they turn their faces against each other. Huang Taiji had 780,000 people, Tao Min had 100,000 people, and nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses were not used to deal with the Ming Dynasty but killed each other, which seemed absolutely impossible. If this really fights, won't it really become a battle between cranes and mussels, and the fishermen will benefit.

But if this is not the case, what will it be, Xu Lang felt more and more that things were a little strange, why did Fan Wencheng and Tao Min come to Jinzhou to find him at about the same time, is this a strategy, they made an appointment.

Once the Ming Dynasty believed that they would turn their faces against each other, what would they do, in case Chongzhen really gave up the defense in the north and attacked Li Zicheng with all his might, who could guarantee that Huang Taiji and Tao Min's nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses would not take advantage of the situation. Sacrificing Li Zicheng, Tao Min is absolutely possible.

Xu Lang wrote another letter to Jiang Beiming, explaining his thoughts in detail, and instructing Jiang Beiming to persuade Chongzhen not to take the north lightly in Beijing. Regardless of whether Tao Min really turned his face or faked it, he must be prepared for everything.

The middle of July arrived, and the thunderous Yulin Bay General Assembly was held on time. The first motion of this conference was not a re-election, but a report on the asset inventory of the crossing group was made public to the congress by Xia Yang on behalf of the committee.

Xia Yang had already held the last committee meeting before the meeting again, and the report was made public to the other committee members. None of the nine committee members could come up with any good solution, so they could only decide to announce the amount of 3,000 taels first, and if there was any problem, it should be solved by the next committee.
