"Lord Chief Soldier, we found the traitor Cai Fu among the captives!" At noon on the second day after Han Wei returned to Sanjiang City, when Li Yuntian was absentmindedly eating lunch, a captain of the Xiaowu Army hurriedly came over and stood upright to the side and said.

"But the Cai Fu who went to Qinghua City to persuade him to surrender?" Li Yuntian was slightly stunned at first when he heard this, and then his eyes lit up, and he asked in a deep voice.

"That's the man." The captain nodded, and said in a deep voice, "He changed into a local dress and spoke a ** toe language, and if it weren't for the fact that several military officers had been with him during the Jiaozhi Division, he would not have been able to recognize him at all." ”

"Put Cai Fu in prison and serve him with shackles!" After confirming Cai Fu's identity, a smile flashed at the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he groaned and gave an order.

"Big brother, do you want to use Cai Fu to get close to Li Li?" After the captain left, Lei Ting, who was sitting at the dinner table, flashed a pair of bright eyes and asked with interest.

"You say, even if Cai Fu sued other people's eldest brother in private contact with Li Li in the future, would anyone believe what he said?" Li Yuntian smiled, it seems that Lei Ting has been with him for a long time, and he can already figure out his own thoughts.

Lei Ting guessed correctly, Li Yuntian just figured out that Cai Fu went to see Li Li, Cai Fu was a rebel general of the Ming Dynasty, and he was valued by Li Li, so he was the best middleman.

Moreover, because of Cai Fu's status as a traitor, Li Yuntian was not afraid that Cai Fu would publicize his private meeting and negotiation with Li Li, and besides, Cai Fu did not know his true identity.

Before the captain came to report, Li Yuntian had two intermediaries to meet Li Li, one was a local businessman from Sanjiang Prefecture and the other was a local official from Taiyuan Prefecture.

As far as Li Yuntian knew, the merchant from Sanjiang Prefecture and the local official from Taiyuan Mansion were secretly dealing with the rebels, and if the two could match, he would be able to meet Li Li.

However, Li Yuntian was not particularly satisfied with the selection of these two people, because he did not know what the relationship between these two people and the rebels was, he hoped to quietly complete the negotiations with Li Li, and did not want others to know, in case these two people were far away from Li Li, the rebels would definitely report it layer by layer, and the number of people who knew about this matter would also increase.

But Cai Fu is different, he is very valued by Li Li, and he can see Li Li directly, so he saves a lot of cumbersome details in the middle.

Although Li Yuntian wanted to use Cai Fu as an intermediary, he couldn't tell Cai Fu directly, he had to be rigid and soft, and adopt the policy of radish and stick, so that Cai Fu could do things for him honestly, so as not to make any mistakes along the way.

Two days later, the Sanjiang Prefecture was imprisoned.

In a dark and damp cell, a middle-aged man with a flail around his neck, chapped lips, and a disheveled hair sat in the corner with a dull gaze, and this person was naturally Cai Fu.

Cai Fu has not eaten a drop of rice since he entered the prison, not because he can't eat it, but because the jailer didn't ask him to send it at all.

Cai Fu knew that he would definitely die after being arrested this time, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, it was a felony to surrender to the enemy on the battlefield, and he would not die here, but would be sent back to the capital by the Ming army to be handed over to Emperor Xuande, and he was executed in public at the entrance of the vegetable market to set an example.

Just as Cai Fu was in a daze there, the door of the cell opened, and several jailers came in and lifted him up and walked out.

Seeing this situation, Cai Fu's face showed a look of despair, it seemed that he was going to be sent to the capital, he didn't want to die, and he had no shame to face his family in the prison in the capital.

Emperor Xuande was furious after Cai Fu defected to the enemy, so he ordered the arrest of his relatives of the nine clans, and put him in the prison of the Criminal Department, where he was executed with Cai Fu after the Jiaozhi rebellion was put down.

To Cai Fu's surprise, he was not dragged into the prisoner car by the prison guards, but was carried into the execution cell, which made his face bloodless, and his eyes showed a look of horror, thinking that he would be punished, and he had heard of the punishment of the prisoners in the prison, and he definitely did not want to try it.

However, when Cai Fu entered the torture room, he found that there was only a young man in a black military uniform in the room, who was facing away from him and admiring the torture instruments in the room.

Several jailers took Cai Fu into the torture chamber and turned to leave, slamming the door of the torture chamber as he left, which couldn't help but make Cai Fu curious, he recognized that the young man was wearing the military uniform of Xiaowujun, and he didn't know what the other party was looking for him.

"Cai Fu, this official asked you, do you want to die or live?" Under Cai Fu's stunned gaze, Li Yuntian reached out and took off a leather whip hanging on the wall, and turned to look at him quietly.

"The ants are still stealing life, of course they want to live." Hearing this, Cai Fu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said.

"The crime you committed was a heinous capital crime, but the chief soldier has an order, as long as you can complete one thing, then the chief soldier will intercede with the emperor and secretly spare your wife and children." Li Yuntian looked at Cai Fu with a stern expression, and his tone was a little cold.

"Commander-in-Chief?" Cai Fu's eyes showed a look of surprise, and now the only person who can be called "Lord General Soldier" is General Dingnan and Uncle Li Yuntian, and then asked in a loud voice, "What does Lord General Soldier let me do?" ”

"It's very simple, you take the official to see Li Li, and the official has something to do with Li Li." Li Yuntian replied expressionlessly, and then added, "This is what Lord General Bing meant." ”

"I'm in prison now, and I'm powerless." Huang Fu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, his face was full of shock, he never thought that the young military attache in front of him would let him do this kind of thing, you must know that it is a big crime to contact the rebels in private, but then he reacted, anyway, this matter is beneficial to him, so he deliberately said with a wry smile.

"Don't worry, since you are asked to do something, then you will naturally be released." A subtle smile flashed at the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he coldly admonished, "God knows this matter, if there is a third person who knows, this official can guarantee that your Nine Clans will die a miserable death, and you will not end well, Jiaozhi will be captured by the counterinsurgency army sooner or later!" ”

"Understand below, understand below." Swept away by Li Yuntian's sharp eyes, Cai Fu couldn't help but give a cold war, and said resignedly.

If before Li Yuntian came, Cai Fu did not believe that the young military attache Jiaozhi in front of him could be counterinsurgently sent south, it was obvious that the situation in Jiaozhi was not conducive to the Ming army, in his opinion, Jiaozhi was just a barbarian land, and once the imperial court could not be attacked for a long time, it would give up.

However, the new Dingnan general sent by Emperor Xuande not only came to Jiaozhi with only a few hundred people, but also unexpectedly fought the Battle of Anliang County and the Battle of Fallen Leaf Slope one after another, severely inflicting heavy losses on the rebels in Jiaozhi, which made Cai Fu have to change his previous thinking, believing that the risk of the rebels being exterminated under the command of General Dingnan was gradually increasing.

"I hope you won't disappoint this time." Li Yuntian glanced at Cai Fu, who had an embarrassed expression, walked to the door, opened the door and strode away.

Cai Fu looked at his back in surprise, feeling a little cloudy and foggy, and didn't understand which play was being sung in front of him, the dignified General Dingnan actually sent someone to see Li Li in private.

However, to Cai Fu's relief, his situation immediately improved after meeting the young military attaché, not only was the shackles removed from his neck, but the jailer also brought him delicious meals, which he devoured all the food.

Cai Fu thought that the young military attache would soon release him and let him take the rebel battalion to the camp, but the young military attache then disappeared without a trace and did not come for five or six days, which made him worry, worried that General Dingnan would change his mind, and then he would have no hope of surviving.

Li Yuntian was not in a hurry about going to see Li Li, and he was methodically handling the important military and political affairs at hand in the government office of Sanjiang Mansion, and he could not appear too urgent in this matter, otherwise he would suffer a loss in the negotiations with Li Li.

In the course of a few days, there was another battle between the reorganized Ming soldiers and the rebels at Luoyepo, with more than 1,000 people on each side, and as a result, the Ming army beat back the rebels who tried to enter the territory controlled by the Ming army.

Li Yuntian knew that Li Li was testing his own hypocrisy, and Li Li would not launch an attack on the Ming army in Sanjiang City without figuring out the exact information in Sanjiang City, so as not to encounter a terrifying series of thunderstorms again.

It is worth mentioning that the reorganized Ming army led by Han Wei to fight the rebels on Luoyepo killed more than 700 people and injured more than 3,000 in the first battle of Luoyepo, and Li Yuntian was also taken aback by the fierceness of its strength.

After nearly ten days of confrontation, Li Yuntian quietly took Cai Fu out of the city in a carriage one night, and went straight to Anliang County under the cover of night.

Li Li had no patience to wait any longer at this time, and mobilized a large army to prepare to take Anliang County in one fell swoop, and the main force of the Xiaowu Army was about to come to Jiaozhi, leaving him with little time to conquer Anliang County, otherwise he would face the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty, which could be described as more than lucky.

Knowing that Li Li had transferred troops and sent generals, Li Yuntian knew that the time had come, Li Li did not send troops to attack Sanjiang City, but was ready to take Anliang County, indicating that Li Li had lost patience with the matter of exploring the strength of Sanjiang City, and it also meant that Li Li mistook the stand-in in Sanjiang City for Li Yuntian, so even if Li Yuntian appeared in front of Li Li now, he couldn't recognize that the young man in front of him was actually the dignified General Dingnan.

Li Yuntian made full preparations for this meeting with Li Li, and selected twelve local people from the soldiers in Sanjiang City to serve as his escorts on this trip.

Originally, Lei Ting also wanted to follow Li Yuntian to the rebel camp, but was stopped by Li Yuntian, this time there was a lot of danger, Li Yuntian didn't want Lei Ting to make any trouble, besides, she was a woman who was not only inconvenient on the road, but also made the rebels suspicious.

Therefore, Lei Ting could only reluctantly say goodbye to Li Yuntian, and waited for Li Yuntian's good news in Sanjiang City restlessly, and at the same time, she was also covering Li Yuntian's exit from the city this time, as long as she was there, it would make the outside world think that Li Yuntian was still in the city.!^!
