Liu Lichuan hurriedly stopped: "No, according to Gu Jiaxing, there are 60,000 Qing soldiers in the city, even if 30,000 cavalry are gone, there are still 30,000 people in the city, and there are still 20,000 green battalion soldiers in Huaiqing Mansion, if our army is dragged under Luoyang City, won't it be surrounded by 100,000 troops." ”

Chen Yucheng thought for a while and said with a smile: "Our army bypassed Luoyang and attacked Huaiqing Mansion!" ”

Liu Lichuan exclaimed: "What does this mean, general? In the opinion of the last general, this is a good time to eliminate the cavalry of the Qing army, why bother to attack Huaiqing Mansion for a long time. ”

Chen Yucheng smiled slightly and explained: "Our army attacked Luoyang, that is, in the face of all the Qing army, not only to beware of cavalry, but also to guard against the reinforcements of Huaiqing Mansion, if you pursue the cavalry of the Qing army, not only can not catch up, but also have the danger of being attacked by them, there are not so many worries about attacking Huaiqing Mansion, first, it is impossible for the defenders of Luoyang City to abandon the city to support Huaiqing; Second, since the Qing army was stationed in Huaiqing and did not dare to go south, it must not be an elite, and eighty percent were some Eight Banner Green Battalion soldiers; Third, our army attacked Huaiqing Mansion, and the enemy cavalry will inevitably come to reinforce it. ”

Liu Lichuan pondered carefully, and the secret way was really like this, attacking Huaiqing Mansion was the best policy.

The generals were impressed and ordered to go north.

"Report, Lord Qiqi, all the shorthairs under Luoyang City have been evacuated!" The ranger in charge of the detective reported loudly to Monk Greenqin and the others.

Tomin Aha Luha smiled and praised: "The prince is wise, this move really worked, and it was really refreshing to use the Han people's military books to deal with the Han people!" ”

Monk Greenqin said smugly: "Shorthair thinks that one hundred and ten rangers can fool this king, and he also underestimates our Mongolian iron horsemen, when the Longhair Northern Expeditionary Army was almost wiped out in our hands." ”

Xipo said with a smile: "Since Shorthair was repelled by the prince. Whether we return to Luoyang or not, after all, the short-haired army formation is rigorous. There are many firearms, which are not suitable for cavalry. ”

Monk Grinqin shook his head. I secretly thought, wouldn't it be very faceless to go back now, Shengbao is narrow-minded, this king has lost his face in public, and he must hold a grudge, so he returned to Luoyang without fighting, wouldn't he give him a handle.

"Luoyang is a dead city, where cavalry is useless, and there are many short-haired people in Henan. Runing Mansion and Xuzhou also have the main anti-thief force to threaten Kaifeng Mansion, this king decided to operate in Gongxian County and Rongyang County, monitor the movement of the two short-haired forces, no matter where to ask for help, our army can quickly rescue, what do you think. ”

The generals below are all Mongolian and Eight Banner generals, and they have all followed Seng Lingqin's henchmen for several years, and they immediately echoed when they heard the words.

"I have long been unaccustomed to seeing the bears of victory and cowardice, and I am willing to follow the prince to Gongxian."

"I, Tomina, would like to go, too. The prince is right, the cavalry should not die in the city. ”

"Xipo Ah is also willing to follow the prince."

……

Monk Lingqin smiled: "Okay! Our Manchurian cavalry dominated the world, defeated the Han people two hundred years ago, and won the world. You can beat Shorthair today as well! ”

Several Han generals in the tent looked embarrassed, and when they saw the Manmeng generals shouting excitedly, they also shouted.

Huaiqing Mansion. Meng County

When the magistrate heard that Mengjin County, thirty miles away, had been captured by Shorthair, he immediately panicked. hurriedly brought the master and the general manager Liu Ran to discuss whether to escape or surrender.

The master scolded with an ugly face: "I also heard that Shorthair was in Nanyang Mansion last month. Why did they arrive at Huaiqing Mansion in just a few days, could it be that the officers and soldiers were all dead, and the tens of thousands of troops in Luoyang were actually driving their short hairs to plague the township! ”

General Liu Ran stopped the master from continuing to point fingers at Sang and scolded Huai, and said: "What do you know, short-haired shrewd dead ghosts, my officers and soldiers have been repeatedly fooled, even this official can't understand why they can go to Huaiqing Mansion, but the governor of Zhili, Nar Jing, is stationed in Hanoi, should we let them support?" ”

Zhixian snorted, Hanoi is connected to Meng County, and the army of Nar Jingyi often goes to Meng County to fight the autumn wind, so he knows a lot about the so-called reinforcements, and ruthlessly breaks the general expectations: "This gang of bastards, even the people can't beat it, last time more than 500 people went to Meng County Township to collect grain, they were driven away by a group of villagers with hoes, what a bastard, other green battalion soldiers just can't beat long hair, short hair, bullying the people is also a good trick, which is like their gang of waste!" ”

The master sighed: "No matter what, I have to think of a way." ”

"Report, my lord, there is an adult from outside the city, and he said that he is an old acquaintance of the adult, and he is outside the county office." The yacha came to the lobby and reported loudly.

"It's strange, this official doesn't have any acquaintances in Henan? Let him in! The magistrate was suspicious and shocked, and felt that it was okay to see it.

Liu Ran, the general manager, looked at the living Lord Zhang and exclaimed: "Isn't Mengjin County occupied by Shorthair!" Why are you here, did you escape? ”

Liu Sheng, the magistrate of the county, disagreed with the actions of his colleagues in the next county: The laws of the Qing Dynasty, those who lose the city die, even if they escape, you don't have to make a blatant appearance, do you have to force us to arrest and detain you?

Zhang Wan clasped his fists at the people in the hall and said with a smile: "This official sees that your faces are anxious, and when you see that there must be something difficult to decide, I wonder if this official can have the honor to listen to it?" ”

Seeing that the two Shangguan were shocked, the master stepped forward and explained: "Master Zhang is polite, we are discussing the matter of Shorthair, I heard that Mengjin County is occupied by Shorthair, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”

Zhang Wan replied without thinking: "Yes, two hours ago, Shorthair suddenly came to the city, and there were spies mixed in beforehand, and before the official could figure it out, he was captured by Shorthair. ”

Liu Sheng, the magistrate of the county, asked: "Why is Lord Zhang in Meng County, could it be that the short-haired man is merciful and released the adult back?" ”

Zhang Wan sighed, his expression was strange, he paused for a while, and replied: "No, the short-haired threatened the official to come and persuade him to surrender, and now they are cultivating in Mengjin County, I think in a few hours, they will be able to reach Mengxian County." ”

The master asked in a low voice, "The adult has dropped short hair?" ”

Zhang Wan glanced at him and laughed at himself: "The prefect of Nanyang and the prefect of Ruzhou don't know that most of the officials have surrendered, and I am a small seven-grade sesame official, and I can't look down on short-haired, they just asked me to bring a message to you." ”

The three of them asked in unison, "What words?" ”

"Surrender can save your life, and resistance will burn you."

Take care of the president, the county, and the master.

Zhang Wan smiled bitterly and persuaded: "This official can be regarded as open, and if you stick to it, you can be a loyal minister, and there are advantages to surrendering." ”

Liu Ran hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by this, what are the benefits of surrendering?" ”

Zhang Wandao: "Presumably everyone also knows the way, the former Governor of Liangjiang, Lu Jianying, the Governor of Liangguang, Ye Mingchen, and others have all surrendered to the enemy and are in high positions, what does this mean?" I heard that the official army in Shandong is also losing the battle, I think it won't be long before the shorthair can reach Beijing, and if the Qing Dynasty dies, we won't die in vain.
