The one who can be a general in the Fuzhou army was originally a confidant who had followed the Liu brothers for many years, and after hearing what his boss said, everyone immediately followed Liu Xingzhi, Jin Yingkui, and Xu Erxian to kneel on the ground, and said in unison: "I will swear to follow Lord Zongzhen to the death!" Listen to the arrangement of the head town! ”

Liu Xingzuo has long had the heart to surrender, and many of his henchmen know this, and after contacting Yuan Keli during the Apocalypse, he failed to do it as scheduled, although there are factors such as inefficiency and hesitation in the Ming Dynasty, and there are also reasons for the leakage of news.

Liu Xingzuo has a younger brother named Liu Xingren, this Liu Xingren is a general in Gaizhou, he is not secret, and he leaked the situation of Liu Xingzuo's intention to cross the sea and return to Ming to one of his henchmen, and the history records that this person is named Wang Bing. After this Wang Bing knew that Liu Xingzuo wanted to cross the sea and return to Ming, in exchange for a reward, he took the initiative to expose it to Jianyu.

As a result, not only was Liu Xingren arrested quickly, but the old slave slave Hachi, who did not trust the Han people in Jianyu, also heard the news and sent Jurchen troops in the direction of Gaizhou, Fuzhou and Jinzhou to closely monitor the Han army under Liu Xingzuo. In the end, not only did Liu Xingzuo lose the opportunity to cross the sea and return to Ming, but his younger brother Liu Xingren, including that Wang Bing, was all killed.

And because Jianyu never found evidence that Liu Xingzuo intended to cross the sea and return to the Ming Dynasty, he was afraid of causing a chain reaction of the Ming Dynasty's surrender of generals and troops in Jianyu, so he did not clean up Liu Xingzuo. And in order to show that the old slave is not suspicious of employing people, he also continued to let Liu Xingzuo be his Fuzhou commander-in-chief, and continued to preside over the defense of Denglai Town and Dongjiang Town on the Liaodong Peninsula.

However, in order to eliminate future troubles and weaken the power of the Han generals on the Liaodong Peninsula, Nuer Hachi ordered all the Han people in Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Gaizhou and other places on the Liaodong Peninsula to move inward, and slaughtered all those who refused to move inward, and at the same time burned the Acropolis of Jinzhou, scuttled all the ships of the Fuzhou soldiers, and imposed a strict sea ban on the Liaodong Peninsula, strictly prohibiting the people of all ethnic groups in the territory from going to sea. From then on, although Liu Xingzuo still had the idea of returning to the Ming Dynasty anyway, he could only sigh with admiration.

Liu Xingzuo led everyone to take an oath, and then said the agreement with Mao Wenlong, the marshal of Dongjiang Town. After listening to this, Liu Xingzuo's generals knew that their own headquarters had already made arrangements, and their hearts were also settled.

Liu Xingzuo and the generals planned and distributed it properly, and it was not too early to see the time, so he arranged for Jin Yingkui to take people out of the city to the east to contact the army of Dongjiang Town, which should have set off at this time.

Although Wang Bi had spoken in the center before, a few days had passed, how did Mao Dashuai of Dongjiang Town arrange it, and whether he really did it according to the agreement relayed by Wang Bi, Liu Xingzuo was not 100% sure in his heart.

In order to prevent leakage of news, in addition to sending Jin Yingkui to lead people out of the city to contact Mao Wenlong's army, Liu Xingzuo only sent his own brother Liu Xingzhi to continue to the east gate to restrain the team, while everyone else stayed with him on the south gate city to wait for news.

This kind of waiting is a cruel torment for Liu Xingzuo and all the people under his command who have decided to return to the Ming anyway. If Mao Dashuai of Dongjiang Town did not appear as promised, then how to end up at this time, continue to be a slave and a slave to Jianyu, or simply rebel like this? And these two choices are obviously not what Liu Xingzuo and his subordinates are willing to see.

Fortunately, Jin Yingkui went out for about half an hour, and then rushed back with Wang Bi, and as soon as he came in, he said: "Lord Zongzhen, Mao Dashuai personally led the army of Dongjiang Town, and he has arrived three miles away from the south gate!" The people in the room were overjoyed. Liu Xingzuo was also relieved when he heard this, and a boulder fell to the ground in his heart.

At this time, Wang Bi stood up and said: "Returning to the head of the town, Mao Dashuai's soldiers are divided into three roads, one is led by Mao Chenglu and others, and now it is not far from the east gate. The second road is led by the general Qu Chengen, who is now in ambush five miles outside the west gate to intercept Jianyu and break through to the west. The third route is led by Mao Shuai himself, and now he is outside the south gate, waiting for the town to meet! ”

After listening to what Jin Yingkui said, Liu Xingzuo immediately said: "When you continue to make decisions, you will create a disaster!" That being the case, without further ado, Jin Yingkui stayed at the south gate, and Xu Erxian went with me to meet Mao Shuai! The rest of the generals returned to their defensive positions, restrained their troops, and waited for orders! As soon as the south gate is fired, it will be attacked in the city at the same time! Cut braids, kill tartars, and get revenge! All the generals agreed.

It was nearly midnight at this time, and it was quiet everywhere. Liu Xingzuo took Wang Bi, Xu Erxian and a group of more than 100 people, and rode out of the south gate at night. Not long after galloping, Liu Xingzuo rode on a horse, and saw a military formation in the wilderness in front of him, and then he stepped forward not far away, and saw a few horses galloping out of the opponent's formation.

The two met, and when they got off the horse, it was just a hug, and there was no greeting. For a hero like Mao Wenlong, Liu Xingzuo dared to bring more than 100 horsemen to meet here, which is enough to show his sincerity. Therefore, there is no need to hesitate in the moment.

Next, Liu Xingzuo immediately turned around and got on the horse and led the way in front, while Mao Wenlong ordered his men and horses to set off and followed Liu Xingzuo and his party to the south gate of Dingzhou City.

A moment later, a fire burned above the tower of the South Gate. At this time, Mao Wenlong and his generals had already rushed into the city on horseback.

At the same time, Mao Chenglu and other generals, who had been guarding not far from the east gate, also met Liu Xingzhi, who came to welcome them into the city.

Subsequently, the original 2,000 Dingzhou troops, plus the Anzhou army that followed Mao Wenlong to help in the battle, plus the 4,000 Phi Dao soldiers led by Mao Wenlong, a total of more than 8,000 people, poured in from the east and south gates of Dingzhou City at the same time.

More than 8,000 troops entered the city at the same time, and the movement was naturally not small. Just when the whip soldiers at the west gate and the north gate had not yet reacted, the red-banner army stationed near the official office in the city had already begun to react.

In particular, the whip soldiers who lived in the original camp of the Dingzhou army near the official office heard the sound of horses' hooves and shouts coming from the city, and their feelings changed, and they sat up one after another, some put on armor and came out with knives, some held bows and arrows to defend the danger, and more simply rushed to the street outside the camp gate naked.

But what awaited them were the Fuzhou soldiers who hated them, and a large number of heavily armed and prepared Ming troops.

After the more than 20 generals under the command of Liu Xingzuo's brothers returned to their respective teams, they immediately summoned their subordinates, first conveying that Azig and other nobles with red flags would make a big move the next day to investigate the responsibility for the ineffective siege of the Fuzhou soldiers at noon that day, and taking advantage of the anger of the masses, they also conveyed the decision of Liu Xingzuo and other Fuzhou generals to return to the Ming Dynasty anyway.

The Fuzhou soldiers, who were already holding back the fire in their stomachs, were ignited in an instant, and the slogan of "cut braids, kill tartars, and return to the Ming Dynasty" quickly became the voice of the Fuzhou soldiers.

With the entry of the army of Dongjiang Town, the melee between the Fuzhou soldiers who cut off the whip and the Ming army of Dongjiang Town on one side and the Jurchen Tartars with red flags on the other side soon began in full swing in the city, and the houses, streets, and the gates of the west gate and the north gate were full of swords and swords, and the shouts of killing soon resounded throughout the city.

Of course, the heaviest fighting took place near the Dingzhou government office, where Azig now stays.

After Liu Xingzuo rushed into Dingzhou City with Mao Wenlong, he immediately went straight to the Dingzhou official office where Azig stayed overnight. At the same time, Azig, who had been drinking to the point of seven or eight points drunk, had just returned to his room to rest under the persuasion of Enge Shen and others.

Azig had been lying in bed for a short time, half-asleep, when he heard a "bang" open the door to the outside of his bedroom.

Azig wanted to turn over and sit up immediately, but his hands, feet, and body did not obey the call, and when he finally turned over and sat up, and grabbed the saber at the head of the bed, he heard a voice outside, and said very eagerly: "Master, the slave is Engeshen!" Something happened at the South Gate and the East Gate! Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang soldiers have entered the city! ”

"Mao Wenlong?! Dongjiang soldiers?! How did they get into town?! Before Azig could say what was in his head, he heard the faint sound of shouts of killing coming from the street near the government office.
