Chapter 845: The City Responds

The torch was lit on the dark Taiyuan City, and Li Benshen led a team of soldiers and horses to inspect the city wall, and ten white-armored and eight-banner soldiers followed behind him.

The night wind blew, and the torches in the hands of the soldiers flickered and were blown to a pop.

At this time, not far ahead, a dark shadow touched the city wall, came to the battlement, glanced at the city, and was about to fall down the city, when he suddenly saw the patrolling soldiers coming, his expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly squatted down.

Li Benshen, who was walking towards him, saw a black shadow from a distance, and suddenly stopped.

"Mr. Li, what's going on?" The Eight Banners soldier behind him frowned.

Li Benshen smiled, "It's okay, the flames are blowing in the eyes!" ”

At this time, the black shadow gritted his teeth, and immediately climbed over the wall, followed the rope, and fell down the city wall.

Li Benshen led the men and horses to continue to walk forward, and when he saw the dark shadow of Fang Cai, he found a flying hook on the wall, and he immediately shouted forward, "What person!" Then he led the men and horses behind him and galloped forward.

Outside the city, after the Wei army finished discussing, Gao Yihuan dragged off his robe, and just lay on the bed and was about to fall asleep, when someone outside the tent reported, "Is the king sleeping?" ”

Gao Yihuan sat up, "What's the matter?" ”

"My lord, there is a man who has fallen from the city, saying that there is something important to report." Li Laiheng said.

Gao Yihuan raised his eyebrows, hurriedly put on his shoes and put on his coat, "Bring me to see the orphan." ”

The guards immediately came in with a tent, rekindled the big wax, and the armor soldier wearing armor and a knife with his hand pressed on his waist stood behind Gao Yihuan to guard.

After a while, Li Laiheng led a person into the big tent, and he also pressed the knife, he stood behind the person who came, and if something was wrong, he could immediately draw the knife and kill the person from now on.

Gao Yihuan saw the visitor, who was in his thirties, with dark skin and not tall, but very strong, and he looked like a battle-hardened person.

When the man entered the tent, he saw that the guards were staring at him, a little cramped, he glanced at everyone in the tent, no one introduced, but he could also see that the person standing in the robe in the middle was Gao Yihuan, the king of Wei.

For a while, he didn't say a word, knelt on the ground, and wept bitterly, "His Royal Highness the King of Wei, save the people of Taiyuan!" Woo~"

Gao Yihuan looked at everyone and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you and why do you say that?" ”

The man cried for a while, kowtowed, and said, "The sinner Li Kui is a general in the city. Today, the sinners risked death to go out of the city, to ask His Royal Highness the King of Wei to break through Taiyuan quickly, and the Tartars have begun to eat people! ”

Li Kui turned out to be Wu Shengzhao's deputy, both of whom were killed in Jiangnan during the anti-Qing era, and the people who participated in their anti-Qing killings also included Chen Zilong, Xia Wanchun and others, who were widely implicated and were the first major anti-Qing case in Jiangnan.

At that moment, Li Kui told all the things about the cannibalism of the Qing army in the city, as well as the killing of Wu Shengzhao.

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei, the sinner is willing to atone for his sin with death, and the sinner only asks the Wei army to break through Taiyuan, rescue the sinner's family, and let them live~" Li Kui cried bitterly and buckled his head again and again.

Gao Yihuan's face was gloomy, he was silent for a while, and he walked in front of Li Kui after being silent for a while, and suddenly helped him up, seeing that he was full of tears, he said with a straight face: "General Li, you can go out of the city, which shows that your humanity is not lost." King Lone agrees to your request, and King Lone doesn't need you to atone for your sins with death, this matter is wrong with Azig, you open the city gate, King Lone avenges General Wu and the people of Taiyuan! ”

When Li Kui heard this, he immediately cried bitterly again, and replied in a half-loud voice: "King Wei, the sinner has contacted hundreds of brothers, and he can take the army into the city. ”

Gao Yihuan took a few steps in the tent, "Wu Shengzhao's matter will make Azig vigilant, Gu will give you a little more time, tomorrow morning Gu will storm the south gate, then you should prepare well, remember to keep it secret, you can't sacrifice in vain!" ”

"Sinners know what matters," Li Kui replied.

Gao Yihuan patted him on the shoulder, paused, and continued: "Lonely Wangguan, you still have a conscience, and I will give you this opportunity to make meritorious contributions. If it happens, you won't be able to stay in the Central Plains, but you can allow those who participate to take their families to garrison in the Western Regions, or you will guard Liaodong in the future. ”

At that moment, Gao Yihuan and Li Kui agreed on the code, as well as some specific matters, and it was already four watches, so he ordered: "It's not early, Li Laiheng, you send Li Kui out." ”

When Li Kui left, Gao Yihuan was completely sleepy, and Taiyuan City actually began to eat people, which shocked Gao Yihuan and ignited a raging anger in his heart.

"Order, let Xu Heihu, Li Dingguo, Zhao Daxian, Huang Bingzhong and others come to see Lone!" Gao Yihuan walked back to the table and smashed his fist on the table.

Li Kui came to the city and found that the rope was still there, and quietly climbed the city wall along the rope.

The Qing army held on to the city, and Azig used his family to threaten each other, and forced the green battalion to eat human flesh, but even so, Azig was still not very at ease with this group of Han soldiers.

The green battalion in the city was divided into several units by Azig and took charge of defense under the supervision of the bannermen, while the green battalion soldiers who had no task were locked up in the battalion.

At this time, when the dinner was put on in the evening, it was still a frame of meatloaf, and Li Kui sat with a few henchmen and discussed in a whisper.

Gao Yihuan gave Li Kui a day to make contact, but he didn't contact many people, mainly because the Eight Banners were closely monitored, and the family members were under the control of the Eight Banners, and the Green Battalion soldiers did not all have the same thoughts as them, and many people were still better to die than to live.

At this time, Li Kui was talking about meeting Gao Yihuan, and a green battalion soldier retreated in a panic.

Li Benshen glanced at a few people, saw that their faces showed panic, sneered, and then stared at Li Kui and said, "What did King Wei say?" ”

Li Kui's face changed, and he immediately calmed down, "Junmen, the last general doesn't know what you're talking about!" ”

Li Benshen is Gao Jie's nephew and a native of Xuzhou Town, and Gao Jie abducted Mrs. Xing and brought a big hat to Li Zicheng, and Gao Jie Town formed a big enmity with Shunjun.

Gao Yihuan was Li Zicheng's general, and the Western Wei State actually inherited the legacy of Dashun, and many of the civil and military ministers were Shun. Therefore, in Li Kui's opinion, it is unlikely that Li Benshen will defect to Wei, and Azig has already promised to raise the flag for him.

Li Ben snorted coldly, "Do you think that without Ben's help, you can enter and exit Taiyuan safely?" Do things as recklessly as Wu Shengzhao! ”

Li Kui's face turned pale for a while, "What do you want from the military gate?" ”

Li Benshen sat down beside him, picked up a piece of meatloaf, and said in a low voice, "What did King Wei say?" ”

Seeing this, Li Kui looked left and right, but didn't see the Eight Banners of the people, so he said: "King Wei asked us to make meritorious service for our crimes, open Taiyuan City tomorrow, and let us leave the Central Plains with our families afterwards!" ”

Li Benshen heard the words, was silent for a while, handed the meatloaf to Li Kui, and said in a deep voice: "I have eaten it all, and I will have strength tomorrow!" ”
