Murong Tu was even more reluctant to be a traitor to the Ming Dynasty after Jiang Jiu surrendered to the Dashun army, and hid in the mountains with his own soldiers and horses.

At this time, he was the first to stand up and said to Ling Jingyang: "The last general is willing to help the general Fuming." ”

Niu Guangtian also hurriedly followed him and supported Ling Jingyang to support the Ming Dynasty, only Jiang Xuan still didn't speak.

He looked at Zhu Youzhen, and then at Ling Jingyang, he knew that if he didn't owe his allegiance to Ling Jingyang today, he wouldn't be able to get out of this room alive.

But he has betrayed the Ming Dynasty, and if he goes back, he can't get over his face, and His Majesty may not agree, Wang Chengen quietly pulled Zhu Youzhen's sleeve, Zhu Youzhen suddenly understood, and he didn't care whether he was a puppet or not, and Jiang Xuan said: "Jiang Xuan, you went astray before, I don't blame you, you can know the way back, fight for my Ming Dynasty again, I give you the governor of Shanxi, and the title of Marquis of Weiwu." ”

Ling Jingyang heard it in his ears, but he was laughing in his heart, when did this Zhu Youzhen become so generous, he watched Jiang Xuan's face and expression change, Jiang Xuan closed his eyes, and after a painful struggle, he finally opened his eyes and knelt down to thank Zhu Youzhen.

and Ling Jingyang said that he would go out of the city now to persuade Jiang Hao to go out of the city anyway, and the whole army would attack inside and outside to destroy the Qing army outside the city, Ling Jingyang nodded, but asked him not to go out of the city for the time being, the Qing army outside the city has not yet opened the formation, and after the Qing army began to attack the city and repelled the Qing army, he would go out of the city and surrender to the Qing army.

Ling Jingyang did this because he wanted to frustrate the morale of the Qing army, and then let Jiang Xuan surrender after the morale weakened, so that Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xuan would talk about things anyway, and also told Jiang Xuan that His Majesty was in Weiyuan City.

Leng Rutie raised objections this time, and said to Ling Jingyang: "General, I don't believe that General Jiang surrendered after leaving the city, maybe he will tell the Qing army the news of His Majesty's presence in Weiyuan City when he leaves the city, so that the Qing army can work harder and break through the prisoners of His Majesty in Weiyuan City, and become a treasure to live in." ”

When he said this, he didn't care about Zhu Youzhen's face, in his opinion, Zhu Youzhen was not as good as Li Zicheng, his days as a soldier in Jizhen were the hungriest days of his life, but Ling Jingyang supported Zhu Youzhen to go back to the mountain at this time, although he didn't like Zhu Youzhen, but he still wanted to protect Zhu Youzhen's life, prevent Zhu Youzhen from being snatched away by the Qing army, and become the banner of the Qing army to recruit forces from all sides.

Jiang Xuan really had this idea in his heart, he wanted to go to the Qing army barracks, and the Qing army would definitely not kill him, but if he told his brother this secret, would his brother sell him and become a guest of honor in the Qing army?

But Ling Jingyang's words dispelled his thoughts.

"Jiannu is under the banner of avenging His Majesty to buy troops and generals, if Jiang Huang knows that His Majesty is here with us, what do you think Jiannu will do?"

Jiang Xuan suddenly realized that Zhu Youzhen was a bomb in the eyes of the Qing army at this time, if everyone in the world knew that His Majesty was still alive, what would those green battalion soldiers who surrendered to the Qing army think, and what would the local people think about supporting the Qing army to attack the landlord armed forces of the Dashun army?

With the insidious and cunning of the Qing army, they will not hesitate to kill His Majesty, and then kill Jiang Hao and other soldiers of the green battalion of Datong Mansion without hesitation on the grounds that Jiang Hao killed the king, so as to maintain the legitimacy of the Qing army's entry into the customs.

At this time, Zhu Youzhen, in the eyes of the Dashun army, is a fragrant bait, the world thinks that His Majesty died directly or indirectly at the hands of the Dashun army, the remnants of the Ming army in the entire Jiangnan Province, regard the Dashun army as the enemy of killing their father, and they can't wait to unite with the Qing army to exterminate the Dashun army.

At this time, Zhu Youzhen was carried out, issued a holy decree, summoned the world's soldiers and horses to drive the Qing army outside the pass, and the small court in Jiangnan did not send troops, which would be regarded as a rebellion, and the other vassal kings were happy to send troops to attack the small court of Zhu Yousong, the king of Yingtianfu, annexed the Ming army of Yingtianfu, and became the princes of the hegemonic side.

Li Zicheng would not be stupid enough to give up fighting the Qing army, and continue to attack Zhu Youzhen, which would only make the Dashun army die faster.

Therefore, Ling Jingyang is very sure that Li Zicheng and Zhu Youzhen will unite and expel the Qing army together, Jiang Xuan also thinks about it and becomes more and more excited, and finally can return to the Ming court.

"Your Majesty, General, the last general has been waiting in the city these days, and he will definitely let his brother anyway after leaving the city."

Zhu Youzhen saw that everyone decided to push him to the throne, so he had to pinch his nose and appoint Ling Jingyang as the governor of the five armies, and supervise the soldiers and horses of the Ming army in the world, which is a false position, but Ling Jingyang needs these, with this governor of the five armies, he has the name of the court, and recruits the forces that are unwilling to surrender to the Qing army and are unwilling to follow the forces of the Dashun army to strengthen the power under his command.

Then Ling Jingyang let Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen live in the Iron Fist Battalion, and the other troops and horses defended Weiyuan City, held Weiyuan City for a period of time, and waited for the Dashun army and the Qing army in other places to divide the victory and defeat, such as the victory of the Dashun army, Zhu Youzhen waited for some more time, the Dashun army was defeated, and decisively let Zhu Youzhen go out of the mountain, and co-opted Jiang Jiu and other Jiangbei landlord class forces, and strangled the Qing army in the pass.

Prior to this, Ling Jingyang ordered Zhang Luo's auxiliary troops to prepare for war and prepare for a possible rebellion in the artillery battalion.

This was done because Ling Jingyang asked Fang Xiaoyan to secretly tell him before Lao Mantou went to the artillery camp that Wang En was cultivating a private army in the army, in a vain attempt to turn the artillery battalion into Wang En's soldiers, and also tried in vain to take away control of the stone camp and make Lao Mantou eradicate Wang En's private forces.

Fang Xiaoyan only told the old steamed bun this, the old steamed bun heard that Wang En actually wanted to usurp the stone camp, this is okay, he led hundreds of soldiers directly under the army, entered the artillery camp camp, in the name of Ling Jingyang, the mighty general of the left, convened the main generals of the artillery battalion in Wang En's room, and the generals of the artillery battalion came to the room, and as soon as they entered the door, they were ordered by the old steamed buns to be tied up, and more than ten artillery battalion generals were tied up in one go.

Although Lao Mantou didn't know which people were Wang En's henchmen, as long as the main generals were tied, others couldn't make waves, and after tying up the main generals of the artillery battalion, Lao Mantou summoned more than 800 soldiers of the artillery battalion to gather in the camp, stood on the ladder platform and announced to the soldiers that from today onwards, he served as the captain of the artillery battalion, and Wang En had another important use, and then the other generals of the artillery battalion were pressed by the direct troops to go to the Iron Fist camp.

The soldiers of the artillery battalion saw that their respective generals were tied up, and there were hundreds of directly subordinate and fully armed troops directly under the scene, and there was no riot, nor did they disperse in a hurry, but smoothly became Lao Mantou's subordinates, and Zhang Luofu, who was on the periphery, also breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew to the barracks with his troops.

The old steamed bun brought more than ten artillery battalion generals to the Iron Fist Battalion, and was about to leave, but was pulled by Fang Xiaoyan and said to him: "Brother steamed bun, the general is invited." ”

Fang Xiaoyan took the old steamed bun to the martial arts hall to meet Ling Jingyang, the old steamed bun came, and saw Ling Jingyang, with a middle-aged man in his thirties, and then looked at it, isn't this person Leng Pang, the general of Zhang Luo's auxiliary department?
