Chapter 104: Seeking Runing

When Gao Yihuan heard that he was going to beat Ru Ning, his face changed, and he was so anxious that he wanted to stand up, but Gao Yihuan pressed hard on his shoulder and pressed his ass back to his seat.

"I know that Governor Yang is kind to you, don't worry, after I conquer Ruzhou, I will definitely not hurt him in the slightest." Gao Yihuan hurriedly said a word, wanting to appease Gao Yiyi, and made a promise to him.

After hearing about Gao Yi's experience and learning that he came from Runing, the second brother Gao was secretly happy in his heart, and was ready to use Gao Yitong to defraud Runing City.

With the relationship between him and Gao Yiyan, this matter was originally nothing, Gao Yiyan must have obeyed his words, but after seeing Hu Dawei and listening to his words, the second brother Gao knew that Gao Yiyan was no longer the Gao Yitong he used to be, he had feelings for Yang Wenyue, the officials and the army, and he also had his own ideas, and he was no longer the scared brother.

Letting Gao Yiyi deceive Ru Ning is tantamount to letting him betray Yang Wenyue, which must be a cruel choice for Gao Yiyi.

The second brother Gao knew this, but he still decided to use the relationship between them to force Gao Yiyan to help him deceive Runing.

Gao Yiyan listened to the words of the second brother Gao, and looked anxious, as long as he helped the second brother fight Runing, it would be a betrayal of Yang Wenyue, and he couldn't help but say anxiously: "Second brother, I know that you also hate thieves, and your heart is actually towards the court." That Li Zicheng is a demon, the whole of Yudong was drowned by him, how many people he killed, I'm afraid I can't count, even our village is because of him so many people died. Second brother, a person like Li Zicheng is not worthy of allegiance. Second brother, don't fight Runing, surrender to the court! I'll go and tell Governor Yang about it, and the court will definitely accept the second brother. ”

Gao Yihuan frowned slightly, it seems that Gao Yitong was indeed influenced by Yang Wenyue, and Gao Yiyan's first thought was to persuade him not to fight Runing, and even persuade him to surrender to the court, which shows that Gao Yitong already has his own view of right and wrong, and will not easily help him deceive Runing City.

Gao Yihuan does not intend to accept Zhao'an in a short period of time, and at this time, he will only be pitted to death, which is tantamount to tying his hands and feet.

Now Gao Yihuan has a clear goal in his heart, which is to take Runing, and then seek Nanyang and Xiangfan.

If he can get these places, he will be a Nanyang Zhang Xiu at worst, and if he is better, he may be able to mix Liu Biao, or become Liu Bei.

If you want to defend the southern half of the country, you must defend the two points of Xiangyang and Huaihe, and if you lose one of the two, the south of the Yangtze River will be very dangerous.

The second brother Gao knows history, Zuo Liangyu not only did not defend Xiangyang and Wuchang, but fled when he encountered the enemy, went east to the side of the Qing monarch, and buried the Southern Ming court in a wave. Since Zuo Liangyu couldn't hold it, the second brother volunteered to knock down these places and defend the point of Xiangyang.

There are also many pits in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and the second brother Gao did not dare to hand over his power and surrendered easily, for fear that once he accepted Zhao'an, he would be dragged back, so he did not plan to accept Zhao'an for the time being, but wanted to enhance his strength and maintain a certain degree of independence, and it was best to form a situation where Sun and Liu united to resist Cao.

"Yi, how do you feel about following Yang Wenyue and Hu Dawei to serve the imperial court?" Gao Yihuan suddenly asked, and then replied by himself: "Do you feel that you are very sloppy, always being dragged back by others, and being harmed by your own people!" This time you saved Zuo Liangyu, he turned around and ran, but he left you behind, harming you and the tiger commander. Guess what the court will do when he goes back? I'm guessing he's definitely fine! ”

Gao Yiyan couldn't help but lower his head when he heard this, and his heart was weak for a while, the officers and soldiers did have a lot of problems. If the second brother surrenders, the court will definitely let him fight the thieves, and the thieves will have to cooperate with other officials and soldiers, and there will be people above to urge, and there will be their own people to pit their own people.

Gao Yihuan patted him on the shoulder again, and then said: "We in Henan used to rely on the government, but natural and man-made disasters, the government didn't care, but strictly urged the people, forcing the people to have no way to live, and the people wanted to rely on Li Zicheng again, but Li Zicheng is not a thing. The government and Li Zicheng are not worth relying on, if you want to change this terrible world, you still have to rely on yourself and count on others, and in the end you will only be left with scum left. ”

"In fact, before you, there was also a person who asked me to accept Zhao'an, but as soon as he left me, he was locked by the imperial court and taken into Beijing to ask about the crime of losing land. Now Yang Wenyue himself is still guilty, how can he recruit me" Gao Yihuan looked at Gao Yiyan and said in a deep voice: "I'll tell you the truth, in a short period of time, it is impossible for me to accept Zhao'an."

The second brother Gao did not accept Zhao'an, and the relationship with Yang Wenyue and the official army was antagonistic, which made Gao Yiyan very difficult, on the one hand, his second brother, and on the other hand, Yang Wenyue, who taught him and respected him very much.

Seeing that Gao Yiyan didn't speak, the second brother Gao had some pain on his face, but he didn't relent, but continued: "In this battle, Zuo Liangyu was defeated and fled, and it is estimated that he will run back to Xiangyang directly, and the tiger general soldiers have now become prisoners again, and the official army has not many soldiers and horses in Nanyang and Runing, and the imperial court is busy driving the Tartars out of the customs, and all the people and horses will participate in King Qin, so naturally there will be no reinforcements." If Li Zicheng sent troops south to attack Nanyang and Runing, would the official army be able to stop him? ”

Speaking of this, Gao Yihuan paused for a moment, and saw that Gao Yicheng's expression changed from pain to anxiety, so he continued: "Who is Li Zicheng, you also know Yiyi, if he wins Runing, he will inevitably bleed, and Yang Wenyue will also be in danger."

Gao Yihuan looked at him and said earnestly: "This Runing Mansion, even if I don't fight, Li Zicheng will fight, and it is better for me to fight than Li Zicheng." If you help me conquer Runing Mansion, you are not only helping me, but also saving Yang Wenyue and the people of the city. Because I am nominally Li Zicheng's subordinate, I occupy Runing, and Li Zicheng has no reason to fight Runing anymore. ”

Gao Yihuan had already finished speaking, and he stood aside and waited for Gao Yihuan to make a decision.

Gao Yiyan thought anxiously for a while, and was finally persuaded by the second brother Gao. After this battle, as soon as Zuo Liangyu fled, the official and military forces in southern Henan were empty, and Li Zicheng could not be stopped at all.

"Okay, second brother, I'll help you fight Runing." Gao Yitong stood up, "However, I hope that Governor Yang can be spared when the time comes!" ”

Gao Yihuan was overjoyed, picked up the water bowl that Gao Yiyi had put aside, and handed it to him, "Come, brother, you drink saliva, my words must count, can't you still trust your brother?" ”

On November 3, two days before the battle of Yuncheng, the capture of the ambush had been liquidated, the officers and soldiers had taken a total of 4,200 prisoners, and more than 1,500 wounded.

For the equipment and supplies, the second brother didn't ask for food, but mainly took 200 horses, 1,000 guns, 1,500 sets of armor, and some swords, shields, bows and arrows, and the rest of the miscellaneous things, all of which were given to Wang Wei and Liu Zhenwu, and asked them to discuss and divide them.

After distributing the supplies, the second brother left Wu Shizhao to guard the prisoners and supplies, and then led 1,500 men and horses, changed into official and military equipment, and went south.
