The terrain of Datong Town is dangerous, and it is difficult to be attacked, but at the same time, the Qing Dynasty can also take advantage of this feature to trap Jiang Xiang in Datong.

Ning Wan I have been a cow and a horse for the Manchurians for more than 30 years, and as soon as he calmed down a little, he immediately habitually thought about the master, and he immediately thought about how to minimize the impact of Jiang Xiang's rebellion, which is the attitude that an old slave should have, and it is also the main reason why he is reused by the Manchurians.

As long as Jiang Xiang's southward and eastward directions are blocked, and the rebellion is controlled in Datongfu, and when the Qing court transfers reinforcements, Jiang Xiang will definitely fail, and he cannot be the opponent of the Qing Dynasty.

At that moment, Ning Wan and I hurriedly asked Chen Xiangsheng to act immediately, sending a large number of Manchu spies in Datong to warn the trusted Qing officials in the city and inform them that there would be a mutiny in the city.

He originally wanted to gather these officials in his line and then escape together at night, but because Jiang Xiang focused on monitoring his line, it was very difficult to gather, and there was also danger, so he could only agree to set off separately at night, gather near the south of the city, and then go out of the city together.

Chen Xiangsheng said goodbye to Ning after I finished speaking, agreed on the fourth watch, went to the outside of the line to answer, went out of the city through the south gate, and went to contact other adults.

As soon as he left, I didn't have the heart to continue to do things, so I kept walking around in the study, anxiously waiting for the night to come.

Almost using the same means, Chen Xiangsheng infiltrated the prefect's yamen again when night fell.

Jiang Xiang didn't take Geng Lian as a coward in his eyes, and his identity was not as important as Ning Wan, so the monitoring of the prefect's yamen should be lax.

Chen Xiangsheng has been in Datong for two years, he and Geng Liao have long been in contact, he has been to the yamen many times, and he doesn't need to report it, he walked directly to the backyard where the prefect lived. ”

Geng Liao has been in Datong for more than two years, but he basically has no sense of existence, and he can't be in charge of Datong's government affairs, he doesn't care, the key is that he doesn't even have oil and water, so he hates Jiang Xiang.

He has never taken him seriously in Datong, but now that the governor has arrived, the imperial court is finally going to treat Jiang Xiang, Qiu Ba, he naturally feels that a good day is coming, and his heart is happy tightly.

The sticky pole is like the brocade guards of the Ming Dynasty, their words can be transmitted directly to the ears of the regent, they are all composed of the regent's coat or the children of the Eight Banners, the regent trusts them much more than the Han officials in these places, they sometimes say a word, a beating report, can determine the future of the officials below, and even the life.

Although Geng Liao is the prefect of Wupin, he is very complimented to Chen Xiangsheng.

Chen Xiangsheng saw that he was in a good mood, but he said directly in a deep voice: "Geng Futai, the situation is urgent, and I won't talk nonsense." Jiang Xiang may want to rebel, the governor asked me to inform Futai, hurry up and clean up, tonight on the fourth watch, go out of the city from the south gate, and then Futai immediately go to Xuanfu to inform the defenders to deploy defenses, strictly prevent rebels from attacking Xuanfu, and buy time for the imperial court! ”

The smile on Geng Liao's face froze, and when he heard Jiang Xiang's rebellion, his mind exploded, and it was blank in an instant.

This change is really fast, he just thought that Jiang Xiang was going to fall, and he didn't want this guy to rebel.

As soon as I came, he couldn't wait to stand in line, could Jiang Xiang spare him?

Geng Lian reacted, his face turned white, and his legs began to tremble, "Guard Chen, is this serious?" ”

"Such a big thing, doesn't Futai still believe me?" Chen Xiangsheng said solemnly.

After all, Chen Xiangsheng is the intelligence leader of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Datong, he said this, then Jiang Xiang is going to rebel, Geng Lian can say that he has no power in Datong, he immediately wanted to hug Chen Xiangsheng's thigh, "Guard Li, escape from Nancheng tonight, is it safe?" You must take me out of town! ”

Jiang Xiang wants to rebel, and he must have closed the city gate, and it will be difficult for them to get out.

Originally, Chen Xiangsheng didn't want to say too much, most of the Qing officials in the city, he didn't notify at all, and only a few particularly reliable people got the information, but when to leave and how to go, he didn't say it clearly, and when he acted at night, he would specify it, so as not to cause extraneous branches.

He told Geng Liao the main information that it was already an exception, because he was afraid that the prefect's yamen would be strictly patrolled and he would not be able to notify him at night, so he told the time and place, but he didn't want Geng Liao to feel at ease.

Chen Xiangsheng hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered: "The south gate is guarded by Yang Zhenwei tonight, he is our person, Geng Futai can rest assured!" ”

Yang Zhenwei is a subordinate general under Jiang Xiang, although he is not the core, but he is also a middle- and upper-level general, Geng Liao knows this person, and he has some ability, but he didn't expect to be bought by the sticky pole.

Hearing the news, Geng Lian was a little relieved.

Once there is something to worry about in people's hearts, the time seems to be very long, after Geng Liao got the news, he only felt that every second was like a year, and he just wanted to escape from Datong, the land of right and wrong, as soon as possible.

That night, although martial law was not implemented in Datong City, the atmosphere in the city was very tense, and there were teams of soldiers patrolling with torches everywhere, and the city gates were heavily guarded, and several city gates were full of soldiers.

There are four gates in Datong Town, East and Yang Gate, South Yongtai Gate, West Qingyuan Gate, and North Wuding Gate.

Soon after dark, Yang Zhenwei came to Yongtaimen to take over the defense of the city gate, he was Jiang Xiang's garrison, but with the Qing army defeating Jungar, plus the Ming army was defeated in Xuzhou, he was not optimistic about Jiang Xiang colluding with Nanming, and felt that Jiang Xiang would be killed by the Qing court sooner or later, he considered his parents, wife and children, and Chen Xiangsheng gave him a promise that as long as he was loyal to the Qing Dynasty, after Jiang Xiang fell, he was the general soldier of Datong, so he carried Jiang Xiang and the sticky pole together.

Standing at the head of the city, Yang Zhenwei's face leaked a complicated color, he looked up at the sky, and felt a little anxious.

Jiang Xiang under the heavy pressure of the Qing court, in order to control the army and not be infiltrated and sold by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, concentrated their generals in Datong, and then took turns to send people to command the troops below to ensure the Jiang family's control of the army.

After Ning and Geng Liao left the city this time, his identity would be exposed, but fortunately, his family was not in Datong, but in Mayi, and he had already sent someone to inform him to transfer his family to Taiyuan.

Yang Zhenwei stood at the head of the city, anxiously waiting, after a long time, it was not long before the third watch, not long before the agreed fourth watch, he shook his head and cheered up.

At this moment, a carriage slowly came out of the dark street and slowly approached the city gate.

The soldiers carrying torches under the city immediately stopped the carriage, "What kind of person, the military gate is ordered, and it is forbidden to enter and leave at night!" ”

Yang Zhenwei looked at the sky, it was indeed the third watch, how could someone suddenly come here, for a while his face couldn't help but change, and at this time, the carriage curtain was lifted, Geng Liao leaked his head, trembling his lips and said inwardly: "This official is the prefect of Datong, and he has something important to go out of the city, what about General Yang?" ”

Hearing the news in the city, Yang Zhenwei's brows immediately furrowed, it was not yet the appointed time, how could Governor Geng come?

He didn't know that Geng Lian was spending seconds in the prefect's yamen, for fear of being killed by Jiang Xiang, and staying in Datong was a kind of torture for him.

Yang Zhenwei didn't expect this guy to play cards according to the routine, he was really speechless in his heart, is this Geng Liao a pig? Since you don't follow the agreed routine? If it is discovered, it will not be all over, Governor Ning will not be pitted with blood!

At this time, there are still soldiers patrolling the streets, and if they are seen, the situation is not good.

He hurriedly walked down the city wall, came to the carriage, looked at Geng Liao with some astonishment, and exclaimed, "Geng Futai, this is?" ”

"This official is not worried about the grain collected outside the city, so he has to go out of the city to see!" Geng Liao's eyes flickered.

The soldiers guarding the city gate are not all Yang Zhenwei's people, Geng Liao has already come, and he can't drive him back, if he is caught, he may kill everyone!

Yang Zhenwei's heart was on fire, and he wanted to slap the pig's head to death, and at this moment, a team of soldiers with torches in the distance were patrolling.

For a while, Yang Zhenwei didn't have time to think about it, so he could only let Geng Liao out of the city first, and then hoped that Governor Ning would come soon, he saw the torch in the distance, and immediately ordered left and right: "Open the city gate and let Futai go out of the city!" ”

He ordered, and his subordinate soldiers immediately prepared to open the city gate, but a hundred households in the city shouted: "General Yang, there is an order at the military gate, and no one is allowed to leave the city!" ”

Preparation is a big deal anyway, Jiang Xiang can't explain to the soldiers below, the hundreds of households in the city don't know that Jiang Xiang wants to oppose the Qing Dynasty, but he is not stupid, he can detect a trace of atmosphere, and he immediately reminded Yang Zhenwei.

Hearing the reminder of hundreds of households in the city, Yang Zhenwei's face was cold, he gave the guards around him a look, and then scolded: "Are you a guard, or am I a guard!" Hundreds of households in the city didn't dare to refute when they heard this, Yang Zhenwei glared at him, turned his head to look at the soldiers in front of the city gate, and immediately said angrily: "Open the door!" ”

Yang Zhenwei is a big official, and the soldiers of the city are busy opening the city gate according to the instructions, and the hundreds of households above see it, and see several Yang Zhenwei's family members, hurriedly coming up from the stairs, his face sank, and he hurriedly said to a soldier next to him: "Go and report to the military gate!" ”
