Chapter Eighty-Four: Calculation

After five days, the tragic battle of Suzhou City came to an end.

More than 10,000 people were killed on both sides of the attack and defense, and the Ming army defending the city counted 1,947 people after the battle.

The commander caused Deng Pingyu to be seriously wounded, and he was killed in the guards, and Kuang Zhenchuan was killed in the suppression, and three people were killed in five thousand households, which is not tragic.

The damage to the city of Suzhou was quite serious, and it stands to reason that the enemy should report to the imperial court when they retreated, rebuild the damaged buildings, and build the city wall.

But for several days, Deng and Li seemed to have a tacit understanding with Zhou Wuxi, and they actually cleaned up the battlefield in Suzhou City, dredged the flood in the city and a series of aftermath work.

Until the reinforcements of the Xingdu Division arrived here, the inside and outside of Suzhou City had already been cleaned up, except for the houses and city walls were still scribbled, but there was no trace of a corpse inside and outside the city.

The fallen sergeant was troubled and the local people in Suzhou defended the locals, but for a time the city was full of vegetarians, the grandmother cried, the son cried the grandmother, the crying shook the sky, and the heart was shocked.

For several days, Bao Yuanqian could not return home, presumably the home of the bungalow was also washed away by the flood.

He has been in the secret room of the yamen for the past few days, and he and his subordinates Lu Gangfeng and the others have been firmly watching Sarenya and the others.

In fact, the tragic offensive and defensive battles in the past few days have long understood a truth, the life of any sergeant is just a pawn for the superior to play politics, even if more than 2,500 people were killed in battle, but in the booklet of Deng and Li, it is only a string of numbers.

And these people didn't deserve to die, because the selfish desires of Deng and Li caused such evil consequences, and the lives of more than 2,000 people became a stepping stone for the two to climb up.

He was unfortunate and one of the pawns, but he was lucky that he didn't lose his life in this vicious battle.

The thought of the secrecy and incomprehension extended by this battle has always shrouded his heart, that ghost power Chichi was originally the Great Khan of Tatars, but he appeared under the tent of Ugqi and became one of his close attendants.

And that day, Uncle Bao clearly and firmly caught Ugqi, but let him slip away, he didn't want to suspect Uncle Bao, but there were many signs that this matter was inseparable from Uncle Bao.

Uncle Bao not only knows Ghost Lichi, but also knows Ugqi.... It's just that neither of them seems to know him?

What's even more jaw-dropping is that when Ghost Lichi returned his belongings, he told Deng Li and Wu Geqi that there was no jade seal in their hands, so they attacked the city like this.

This was beyond the expectations of all insiders, and this time the clue of the jade seal was broken from Ugqi, and there was a battle in a daze.

The casualties were not small, although they forced back the Warat people, but they could not be regarded as the clues that Deng and Li had planned for a long time, and for a time they could only get it from the mouths of Bi Che and Sarenya.

This time, these two people are particularly important and have become a breakthrough.

Due to the existence of Zhou Wuxian, there are also people from Ganzhou Weilai.

In view of the great relationship between the two, Li Chengen firmly controlled several people in the secret room, or the Bao family brothers led people to take care of them, although it was a caretaker, in fact, it was also to control Bao Yuanqian's several insiders together, so as not to have many dreams at night.

"Master Li, do you want to ask about the whereabouts of the jade seal immediately?" Deng Pingyu whispered in the inner hall.

Li Chengen waved his hand and said: "Don't act rashly, we must not act rashly, now that the war has just ended, all kinds of ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, Ganzhou Wei and Zhou Wuxian of the Right Army Governor's Mansion will live here for a long time, let's hide the matter first." ”

Deng Pingyu was a little anxious, now for this ethereal jade seal, he has caused such a big mess, and now Ganzhou, the right army governor's mansion has all come, he feels that this matter is not simple.

Li Chengen said: "Besides, that Ugqi is cunning and cunning, he sent only one messenger to tell him, how can you be sure that he really doesn't have it in his hands?" ”

"Now that he has returned defeated, and we have won, we will naturally have bargaining chips."

After hearing this, Deng Pingyu felt that there was some truth, and Li Chengen continued: "Then the 60,000 or 70,000 people in Wugeqi were repelled by more than 10,000 people in Zhou Wuxian, in exchange for you who are brave and good at fighting, are you sure that you can defeat 60,000 with more than 10,000?" ”

Deng Pingyu thought for a moment and shook his head and said: "If you attack him unprepared, more than 10,000 people can kill him 20,000 or 30,000 people is not a problem, if it is 60,000.... I asked myself if I was capable of this. ”

Li Chengen saw him on the road, so he said: "This is the crux of the problem, Suzhou City is about to be broken, but Ugqi is retreating in a hurry, I don't think the reason for this retreat is not here in Zhou Wuxi, but in..."

He pointed a little slender finger, even if Deng Pingyu understood, now Ugqi's hasty withdrawal of troops must be chaos in the rear, and now when he is defeated, he encounters a fire in the backyard.

If the jade seal is on him, he will have even more capital to negotiate with him, so it seems that it is not a bad thing that things have come to this point.

Just when the two were speculating, they saw a person entering with a long body, and a face dressed as a Ming army sergeant was a Beiyuan person.

This man was none other than the messenger of that day!

The two were not surprised to see him coming, and when the ghost was done as an envoy, he sent his entourage, and he himself stayed.

A few days ago, the swords and soldiers faced each other, and the people who fought to the death could turn enemies into friends in an instant, and they were covered up by Deng and Li turned into sergeants.

According to this ghost Lichi, each is his master, and he is also unlucky to take refuge in Ugqi, so he has sent people under the fence for the time being, and now he is taking the opportunity to get out.

The two of them don't mind, each for his own master, regardless of merit or demerits, as long as it is good for them and there is news, they can come and not refuse.

Ghost Power Chida strode inside and bowed, "Two adults, the news you wanted.... Here it comes. ”

Deng Li and the others instantly came to their senses when they heard this, and hurriedly got up, only to see that ghost Li Chi took out a letter from his arms and presented it.

"Gregory Ministry, a letter from Master Mahamu."

The two hurriedly took the letter, unfolded it, and immediately overjoyed!

"It's... This jade seal... It's really not in Ugqi's hands. Deng Pingyu was a little shocked.

Because the letter said that it was Mahamu's own letter, the jade seal of the country was not in the hands of Ugqi but was hidden by Kun Timur, and Mahamu attacked the Khan's court and obtained this piece of jade seal.

Now Maham is earnest, indicating that he has no intention of saying that Khan is not interested in the stone.

Just to get rid of his beloved son, and this person is Sarenya!

What's more..... At the place where the letter was signed, there was no handwriting, but a large jade seal with eight characters on it, which surprised the two.

After Li Chengen was happy for a short time, he looked at the ghost power and red eyes, and said in his heart that this person is left and right, the wind blows the wall grass, and he has already been eye-catching with Mahamu after Ugqi.

This person is quite deep in the city, and he has repeatedly jumped sideways, so he still has to think about it.

"It's just.... This Mahami asked us to send Sa Renya to Horin... I'm afraid of this.." Lee hesitated slightly.

Ghost Li Chi smiled and said: "The two adults don't know, if the Taishi sends someone to come, it will definitely be noticed by the Ming army, and now that Suzhou City has just suffered, I am afraid that it will be unprecedentedly vigilant, even if the spiritual team will be found abnormal, it is quite troublesome." ”

"Besides... Now although Ugqi has retreated, he has not broken his muscles and bones, and he may come back at any time. ”

Deng Li and the others knew that he was reasonable, but they were confused, this Ugqi is cunning, so what kind of person is this Mahamu?

What if someone sends it but doesn't give it to the jade seal?
