He Zhen returned to the military formation, gathered his henchmen, and whispered to them, the generals did not want to follow the Chongzhen court for a long time, He Zhen saw that the generals agreed, and decisively ordered the whole army to turn around, and the whole army rushed towards Yicheng as the vanguard of the Jingyang army.

At this time, there were not many Ming troops in Yicheng, especially in the battle with the Qing army a few days ago, the loss of Zhang Luofu's entire army, the Wu Dading Department also lost troops, Zhu Youzhen worked hard to restore the soldiers and horses of the various departments, fortunately, after the efforts of the imperial court monarchs and ministers, the entire Yicheng Ming army recovered more than 30,000 people, and the entire Pingyang Mansion had more than 50,000 Ming troops, but most of them were recruits without combat effectiveness.

Zhu Youzhen discussed with the ministers in the Jinluan Palace, if He Zhen did not block the army of Taiyuan Mansion, would Yicheng have to be fortified again?

There are different opinions, some ministers think that He Zhen can fight well and will definitely be able to drive away the Taiyuan army, and some ministers think that He Zhen has two hearts and must immediately gather troops and horses in Pingyang Mansion to defeat the Taiyuan army.

Zhu Youzhen watched the ministers arguing, very angry, why are his subordinates a group of waste, among the courtiers, only Ximen Zhu sat firmly on Mount Tai, ten days ago, Fang Xiaoyan personally infiltrated Yicheng and came to his mansion to establish contact with him.

Fang Xiaoyan told him that the governor of Lingdu would soon lead the army south to Huguang, and the army passed by Yicheng, where he asked His Majesty for grain, grass and holy decrees, and asked Ximen Zhu to cooperate.

He strongly asked to go to Huguang as well, but Fang Xiaoyan told him that Governor Ling Du thought that his position in the imperial court was very important, and going to Huguang would only let others fill this position, let him continue to climb up in the imperial court, and send him a thousand taels of silver, so that Ximen Zhu Duoduo could honor other superiors and seek a more important, higher and more promising position in the Chongzhen Imperial Court.

Ximen Zhu couldn't go to Huguang, and he was a little discouraged, but he quickly adjusted, and he asked Fang Xiaoyan, how should he cooperate with Ling Dudu?

Fang Xiaoyan whispered in his ear, "Can you open the city gate?" ”

Ximen Zhu shook his head, although he was a squire of the imperial court, but he did not master the army, let alone the ability to open the city gate, he said that it was almost impossible, Fang Xiaoyan abdicated and asked for second,

I hope he can provide the military deployment and troops in the city, which makes Ximen Zhu useful, he is the head of the household department of the imperial court, and the military department comes to the household department every half a month to ask for food and grass.

There are more than 50,000 soldiers and horses in the imperial court, most of the soldiers and horses are stationed in the Yicheng, there are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the Yicheng, but most of them are new soldiers, the weak place of the city defense is the north gate, before the bloody battle with Jiannu, the north gate city wall has been severely damaged, and it has not been completely repaired.

Fang Xiaoyan asked him how much grain and grass there was in the city, and Ximen Zhu saw that there was no one around, and said softly to him: "There are twenty granaries, each with 10,000 stones of grain and grass, and the grain and grass are definitely enough." ”

What kind of grain and grass is this Zhu Youzhen ordered the army to collect from all over the place, Fang Xiaoyan was also surprised that a small Yicheng had so much grain and grass, after he obtained useful information, he asked Ximen Zhu for help again, Ximen Zhu shrugged his shoulders and acquiesced.

Fang Xiaoyan asked for the personnel of the Special Bureau to infiltrate the imperial court, for Ximen Zhu, these are no problems, he needs to train his own team in the household department, and he is in a hurry to have no manpower, Fang Xiaoyan didn't send people, he asked Fang Xiaoyan to send personnel, but these people must accept the dual leadership of him and Fang Xiaoyan.

Fang Xiaoyan thought about it, gritted his teeth and agreed to this request, he let the personnel of the three special bureaus lurking in Yicheng enter the Ximen Zhu Mansion and become Ximen Zhu's subordinates, while he went out of the city with information and waited in a forest outside the city.

After waiting here for three days, he saw He Zhen leading the troops out of the city, and saw Ling Jingyang and He Zhen leading the two armies towards Yicheng, he came to the rear army, and the soldiers of the rear army identified themselves, Li Rufeng personally gave him a good horse, and asked him to report the military situation to Ling Jingyang.

He came to the Chinese army to report the information of Yicheng to Ling Jingyang, Ling Jingyang got the information of Yicheng, and kept praising Fang Xiaoyan for doing a good job, Fang Xiaoyan finished reporting the information and did not leave.

In fact, he also got an important piece of information in Yicheng, and he was a little hesitant to tell Ling Jingyang?

Seeing that he didn't go down, Ling Jingyang asked curiously, "Xiaoyan, still have intelligence?" ”

Fang Xiaoyan was under the special part of Yicheng, and he saw it not long ago

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The palace attendants were suddenly in the city, buying colorful silk and other festive supplies, after Fang Xiaoyan entered the Yicheng, the soldiers of the Special Bureau sent this information to him, is there a happy event in the palace?

This information attracted Fang Xiaoyan's attention, he didn't ask Ximen Zhu about this matter, after all, Ximen Zhu was not very familiar with the royal affairs, he personally came to the largest shop in the city, squatted here, and sure enough, he saw a group of eunuchs buying wedding supplies here, Fang Xiaoyan was a little confused, what did a group of eunuchs buy these for, Yicheng is the temporary capital of the Chongzhen Imperial Court, but I haven't heard that there are other members of the Zhu Ming royal family who came to the Chongzhen Imperial Court.

Then these eunuchs buying wedding supplies must be for the emperor, Fang Xiaoyan suddenly felt very bored, and left with his subordinates, and suddenly a familiar figure appeared in his sight.

He thought he had seen it wrong, and rubbed his eyes, it turned out to be Wan Qing, he widened his eyes, it was really Wan Qing, Wan Qing was Bai Lushui's maid, after the Yicheng mutiny, the two lost contact, and everyone thought that the two died in the chaos, Ling Jingyang blamed himself for this, it was he who did not protect Bai Lushui.

But seeing Wan Qing here today, Fang Xiao's pupils were infinitely dilated, he didn't disturb Wan Qing, but buried this information in his heart, and after seeing Ling Jingyang, he was still hesitating to tell Du Du.

Ling Jingyang saw his constipated expression, and scolded with a smile: "Xiaoyan, do you want me to be a matchmaker for you and marry the elder sister of the guard?" ”

"No, no, the governor, there is another piece of information here, the last general will say it, and please don't be angry."

There was even other information, Ling Jingyang asked Fang Xiaoyan not to be like a girl, and hurriedly told him, Fang Xiaoyan told him that Bai Lushui's personal maid Wan Qing haunted Yicheng and bought wedding supplies with a group of eunuchs in the largest shop in the city, this explosive information made Ling Jingyang like five thunderbolts, he stammered: "This... Really? ”

Fang Xiaoyan responded to him gently, if there is half a lie, there are five thunders in the sky, Wan Qing is Bai Lushui's maid, Ling Jingyang immediately thought that Bai Lushui might also be in Yicheng, and then thought about it, and suddenly Bai Lushui sat in a sedan chair in his mind, and was married into the palace by the royal family, the owner of the royal family, isn't it that Your Majesty?
