Hearing Liu Guoneng say that he could enter the city unnoticed, Xu Hongji and the others were moved.

Liu Guoneng didn't hide it, and told them directly, "That's right, there are many people who go out of the city tonight to ask to see us, saying that they can help open the city gate, just to save their lives!" Let me think about it, it seems that all the people in Nanjing who can be called have come! ”

"Why don't you believe me?" Liu Guoneng saw that no one spoke, took out a fold from his pocket and threw it to Xu Hongji, "Don't believe it, see for yourself, do you all know the people who come to our camp to give gifts!" ”

Xu Hongji hurriedly grabbed the fold, and Li Zhifu and others also leaned over with their heads, only to see that the list on the fold almost included more than half of the nobles in Nanjing, and the gifts and everything were recorded in detail, which did not seem to be fake.

Xu Hongji and others scolded in their hearts, this group of people actually did such a thing in order to save their lives, they were the ones who were reluctant to pay to force the officials and soldiers to fight a decisive battle with the rogues, and now they are the ones who take the initiative to surrender when they see that the situation is wrong, this group of people is simply shameless, and they are rebellious!

"General Liu, of course you should reward the righteous army, but the number is too large, can you reduce it a little?" Qin Shangshu said kindly.

"No! Let's not talk about it if it's less! The red lady will give you a way to live, and you will cherish it, so after my righteous army enters the city, I will take it from you! Liu Guoneng was extremely resolute.

"General Liu is angry, does General Liu know that Jiangnan is rich, why did the rebel army never lead the troops south when it was in full swing?" Governor Li suddenly asked tentatively.

Liu Guoneng was shocked, and asked quietly, "Oh, what do you know?" ”

"The Ming people don't say secret words, and the general doesn't attack Nanjing, but he gets the edict of King Chuang?" Governor Li Chengzhu said with a smile in his chest.

Nanjing City is now like a weak and powerless beauty, who has spread her thighs and waited for Lin Xing, and has no power to resist at all, but Liukou did not mention the gun and put forward such a condition, if it were not for Gao Yingxiang's order, Li Zhifu really couldn't think of other reasons.

Liu Guoneng was shocked, what does this have to do with Gao Yingxiang, he is now doing things for the emperor, and naturally he vaguely guesses why they didn't attack Nanjing, is there any conspiracy here! Is there a connection between Gao Yingxiang and this group of people?

Gonggong Deng and Qin Shangshu also looked at Governor Li in shock, not knowing why he would say such a thing, is this really related to Gao Yingxiang? Seeing that Liu Guoneng and Xu Hongji were silent, both of them were secretly surprised, and their hearts were full of suspicions, if it wasn't for the wrong time, they couldn't wait to ask them for clarification immediately.

"How do you know?" Liu Guoneng asked rhetorically.

"Xiaguan was born in the Li family in Suzhou, and he is the prefect of Yingtianfu, but he knows some inside information, when the general and others went south, we have already begun to contact King Chuang, and it is almost time to count the day, so I dare to guess that the general should be ordered by King Chuang!"

Liu Guoneng figured out the reason with a turn of his mind, first he was angry that this group of officials and gentry actually had a relationship with the rogue, and it was simply worth killing, and then he thought about going back quickly to inform Yang Su of this important news, and suddenly he was not in the mood to perfunctory with these people, "What edict is not edict, although King Chuang is the leader of the rebel army, but the general will not be subject to the order of the monarch outside, no matter what you say, if you don't agree to a certain condition, you will attack the city on the same day!" ”

Governor Li's expression changed greatly, and he looked at Liu Guoneng in surprise and was at a loss.

Instead, Xu Hongji begged, "General Liu, it's not that I can't agree, but this amount is too big, and I can't afford to give it!" ”

"Nanjing City is such a big city, you can't give this little thing, I think you are just reluctant to make money, a certain is a rough person who is not good at talking about you, a certain is good at catching knives! Since you don't want to exchange money for your lives, then wait for us to take it ourselves! "Liu Guoneng has a tough attitude to the extreme.

"General Liu, let's give! Just ask General Liu for a few days, it takes time to prepare these things, you say? Grandpa Deng pleaded.

"What annoys me the most is that you are grinding and chirping, shameless to your face, hum! If it weren't for the sake of looking at the red lady, I would have slaughtered you with a knife according to my usual temperament! Liu Guoneng looked angry and impatient, and slammed the table, "Don't say much, you send everything over within three days, otherwise I will attack the city immediately!" ”

Liu Guoneng threw down the last notice and got up to leave. Xu Hongji and the others didn't dare to stop Liu Guoneng from leaving, but they followed Liu Guoneng and kept begging anxiously, asking him to forgive him some time.

Liu Guoneng turned his head impatiently, looked at the few people who were silent, and pointed, "When we have no money and no food, we will rob it!" Even the simple truth that even our group of rogues understand, you officials still don't understand? ”

Xu Hongji and the others only felt bitter in their hearts, who were they going to rob? This is not one or two million taels of silver, but more than ten million taels. There are as many as two or three million people in Nanjing, and if they were given time to find a name to collect taxes, it would be possible to collect so much silver, but what could they do in this hurry?

Liu Guo was helpless when he saw that the four of them were helpless, and kindly paid attention, "There are a lot of people we have seen tonight, and those people are in our army at the moment, I heard them say that behind them are all big people with names and surnames in Nanjing, we are thieves!" They dare to openly commit thieves, who will you kill if you officials don't kill them? ”

Xu Hongji shook his head in shock and hurriedly refused, "No, this is absolutely not good!" Such a slaughter of the gentry will definitely not escape the punishment of the imperial court in the future! ”

"General Liu, as a member of the imperial court, if we do such a thing, even if we keep Nanjing City, I am afraid that death is not far away, can General Liu ......?"

"No way!" Liu Guoneng categorically refused: "Give you a way to live, and I still want to pick and choose!" If you are like this, wait for death! ”

"General Liu, everything is negotiable!"

"General Liu, please listen to me!"

Xu Hongji grabbed the door and wanted to dissuade Liu Guoneng.

"Get out of here!" Liu Guoneng slammed into Xu Hongji and Li Zhifu who were in front of him, and left quickly, and as soon as Liu Guoneng's figure went out in the night, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Only the four people who sighed for a long time were left, standing behind the gate in a daze.

As soon as Liu Guoneng left the Wei State Mansion, in the dark corner of the corner of the street, there was already a carriage waiting here.

"Can General Liu negotiate?" The driver was a middle-aged man in a black robe with a hat, who was respectfully asking Liu Guoneng at this moment.

"Those bastards really don't want to die in the Yellow River, I really want to cut them with a knife, so it's more convenient!" Liu Guoneng got in the car and hated and was dissatisfied.

"This group of people is a vegetarian meal, and they don't care about the lives of the people in the city for the sake of money. We don't want to see the lives ruined, the north gate is now under the control of our people, if General Liu wants to attack the city, he can open the city gate directly tonight! I only hope that General Liu will see our merits and spare our family! ”

Liu Guoneng played haha. "That's good, send me out of town now! I'm going back to tell General Cao and ask him to make a decision. ”
