Ling Jingyang had to temporarily give up chasing and killing the Fusang people, and Mei Shaozuo asked him, did those puppet soldiers kill or let them go?

"Kill, you go and slaughter these puppet soldiers one by one."

Ling Jingyang hated the puppet army, a group of people who had forgotten their ancestors, and they could kill as many as they could.

The two continued to eat, Li Rufeng came with Ximen Bamboo, Ling Jingyang was overjoyed when he saw Ximen Bamboo, and quickly stood up and came to Ximen Bamboo, it was really Ximen Bamboo.

Busy said: "Ximen Zhu, is it you?" What about the others? ”

Ximen Zhu's face was very embarrassed, but he still bravely told Ling Jingyang that he had surrendered to the imperial court, but he was willing to lie dormant in the imperial court for Ling Jingyang.

"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"

Before he could say any more, Mei Shaozuo rushed up, and with another fist, Ximen Zhu's tears flowed.

Ximen Zhu knelt down for Ling Jingyang.

"Governor, I didn't do anything to be sorry for you, I was the first to surrender, but it was I who surrendered, and the others in the Governor's Mansion were not killed."

Ling Jingyang grabbed Mei Shaozuo, who was about to continue beating Ximen Zhu, and said to him: "Who else has been captured by traitors? ”

"Jin Dashou, Mi Shengguang, Wang Bao and others, as for the officials stationed in various places, basically all surrendered."

Ling Jingyang didn't hear Bai Lushui and Wen Yuanyang, and hurriedly asked, "What about Bai Girl and Wen Girl?" ”

"The villain doesn't know, the rebels rushed into the city, Wang Bao wanted to go to the Governor's Mansion to take us and others to retreat, but before they arrived at the Governor's Mansion, the rebels occupied almost the whole city, Wang Bao led the troops to storm the palace, and was captured by the rebels, and we were also captured by the traitors."

Ling Jingyang asked Ximen Zhu to continue to talk about the past of Yicheng, and Ximen Zhu told him that Wang Bao and other prisoners were sent to Jiang Xuan's army, and he didn't know what was going on, and Jiang Xuan and Niu Guangtian were also deprived of military rights.

Two mutinies broke out in one day, and His Majesty and Zhang Luofu got more soldiers and horses in Yicheng, but they also had a bad relationship with Jiang Hao.

Speaking of this, Ling Jingyang remembered that Jiang Rang came to Fenxi County a few days ago to negotiate and defect to the Hongguang Imperial Court, because they were not trusted by Zhu Youzhen, and thought that this Zhu Youzhen was really unable to hold his breath, and began to dismantle the bridge before crossing the river.

"Dudu, the villain was ordered to go to Qinzhou to persuade He Zhen to surrender a few days ago, but He Zhen beat the villain violently, and said that he would not be with Zhang Luofu

, gave the villain a fast horse and dry food, implying that the villain came to Fenxi County to meet the adult. ”

"Okay, you have a heart, you go back for the time being, continue to lurk in the court, and there will be a place for you in the future."

In order to allow Ximen Zhu to lurk better and not be suspected by the people in the Chongzhen Imperial Court, Ling Jingyang asked Li Rufeng to send Ximen Zhu back now.

Ximen Zhu suddenly didn't want to go back, so he and Ling Jingyang petitioned to stay in Fenxi County and carry out household registration management for Ling Jingyang.

Ling Jingyang was curious that he was still doubling his confidence just now, and he was going to the imperial court to hibernate for him, why did he suddenly change his mind?

Ximen Zhu was very disgusted and said: "I really don't want to see Your Majesty, he is friendly with the Dashun Army and the Qing Army in Yicheng, and he also wants to annex Qinzhou, Henan Mansion, and Qingyuan Mansion The soldiers and horses of the three places, I think Your Majesty should focus on the Hongguang Imperial Court soldiers and horses that occupy Henan, and the villain doesn't want to follow them to fight among themselves, and asks to return to the left and right of the adults." ”

Ling Jingyang had already sent people to Huaiqing Mansion and Henan Mansion, and ordered Wang Tiedao's department and Lao Mantou to continue to garrison in the two places, especially not to clash with the imperial court's soldiers and horses, but he did not let these two soldiers and horses withdraw to Fenxi County.

It's not that he doesn't want to join up with the two soldiers and horses, but the grain, grass and land in Fenxi County can't support so many soldiers and horses, as long as these two soldiers and horses are still loyal to him, they can contain lard and Zhang Luofu's army.

He demanded that Ximenzhu go back in a tough tone, and told him that he must climb up the imperial court to obtain more top-secret information, which is much more useful than managing the population in Fenxi County.

Ximen Zhu didn't dare to disobey Ling Jingyang's order, and under the escort of Li Rufeng, he turned around and ran towards Yicheng three times in one step.

After he left, Ling Jingyang's heart was full of Bai Lushui and Wen Yuanyang, he knew that Wang Bao, Mi Shengguang, Jin Dashou and other subordinates would not worry about their lives for the time being, and he also thought that Zhu Youzhen was still not mature, and finally succeeded in the mutiny, but he had a bad relationship with Jiang Hao.

What we have to do now is to get in touch with He Zhen, and at the same time, we must also have a good relationship with the Dashun Army.

Just when he wanted to know how to contact the Dashun army, Li Guo led hundreds of cavalry to rush to the city of Fenxi, because Li Rufeng escorted the west gate to Yicheng, and the overseers in various parts of Fenxi County were unable to stop Li Guo's troops from approaching the city.

When Li came to Fenxi City, Ling Jingyang had already received information and ordered the wall to be cleared, and at the same time mobilized the elite troops in the city, ready to shoot the invading enemy with bows and crossbows.

He saw hundreds of cavalry under the city on the city wall, judging from the dress and banner, it looked like the Dashun army, he and Shi Tie nodded, and Shi Tie shouted greetings to the cavalry under the city on the city wall.

"Brothers in the city, are you passing by my Fenxi County?"

Li Guo responded to him under the city.

"I am Li Guo, the general of the Dashun military system, and I am here to talk to the governor of Ling Jingyang."

The person who came turned out to be Li Guo, Ling Jingyang was very uncomfortable in his heart, Li Guo treated him well, but he supported Zhu Youzhen's restoration in a blink of an eye, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was a traitor to the Dashun Army.

"I don't know if General Li came from afar, the wind and water outside the city are cold, and I invited General Li and all the brothers to roast the fire in the city."

Ling Jingyang ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome Li Guo and his subordinates into the city, Li Guo was not afraid of fraud in the city, and led his subordinates to staggered into Fenxi County.

Ling Jingyang had been waiting for Li Guo at the city gate for a long time, and after the two met, they were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, cordial and enthusiastic.

Ling Jingyang took Li Guo's war horse and said to him: "General Li, how are you doing?" ”

"Okay, what about you?"

Ling Jingyang said that it was very good, he trained in Fenxi County and expelled Jiannu from the customs.

Li Guo wanted to sarcastically ridicule Ling Jingyang being yin, but after thinking about it, he still endured it, as the commander of an army, there was no need to fight verbally to win or lose, besides, Jiannu was ravaging the Central Plains, and if he didn't unite, he was afraid that he would be eliminated by Jiannu one by one.

The two came to the barracks from the city gate, and Ling Jingyang had a habit, that is, in wartime, he liked to set up the camp in the barracks, rather than in a room in the city, and only with the soldiers could he better understand the state of the troops.

The two entered the barracks, and Li Guo saw hundreds of young men in the barracks carrying wooden swords, guns, swords, and sticks practicing, and he somewhat understood that Ling Jingyang's strength was not as good as before.

He Ling Jingyang said: "Governor Lingdu, is there not enough ordnance in Fenxi County?" ”

There is no shortage of weapons in Ling Jingyang's army, and the recruits are trained with wooden weapons because the weather is cold and freezing, and many weapons are easy to break, he just wanted to say that the army has sufficient supplies, Li Guo opened his mouth and said that he could support Ling Jingyang with a thousand ring-headed knives and 500 spears and spears.

There are not many weapons, but they are enough to move Ling Jingyang.
