Chapter 242: This Cheng Guoshi also

Zhi Ting admonished, "What about you, brother Xian?"

"As for me, little brother." Yan Yingyuan smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's hard to get out, after all, at that time, I was already in prison and became a prisoner of Jiannu."

"How's that going to work?" Zhi Ting hurriedly said, "This must not be done."

Fan Zhongjie didn't say anything, because he agreed with what Yan Yingyuan said just now.

As long as you can burn Duoduo and the 60,000 troops under his command with one fire, nothing can be sacrificed, including Yan Yingyuan and him, the prefect of Huai'an Mansion, can be sacrificed without hesitation.

Because of the burning of these 60,000 troops, Jiannu will completely lose the ability to go south to cut down Ming.

In this way, the Huanghuai defense line can be regarded as truly defending, and the Ming Dynasty can be invincible.

Thinking of this, Fan Zhongjie said, "Yan Xiaoyou, I'm afraid that you alone are still not enough to win the trust of Duoduo, so it's better to add me, the prefect of Huai'an Mansion."

Yan Yingyuan said with a deep sigh: "The government is noble and righteous, and I admire it below."

Yan Yingyuan did not refuse Fan Zhongjie's proposal, because he also felt that adding Fan Zhongjie was more secure, if he was only six points sure before, then now, he is already eighty percent sure.

"Then add me too." It is rare for the court to be enthusiastic.

"Zhizhi County, you don't have to join in the fun." Fan Zhongjie said, "After all, your county government is in Dongcheng, and you came to Xicheng for no reason, but it made Jiannu suspicious."

Yan Yingyuan also said: "Brother really doesn't have to join in this fun, in case the death plan fails and is seen through by Duoduo, Dongcheng is our last reliance, as long as Dongcheng is not lost, Shanyang will not be lost, Huai'an Mansion will not be lost, and the Jiannu army will not want to cross Huai'an to Yangzhou in the south, let alone directly threaten Nanjing."

"How's that going to work?" Zhi Ting said in a panic, "If the plan fails, I can't defend the huge Shanyang City by myself."

Fan Zhongjie said: "Isn't there still more than 5,000 villagers in Dongcheng, how can you support it for a period of time according to the tactics of Wan Heng, at most in half a month, the sailor should return to Huai'an Mansion."

"But, but......" Zhi Tingzhi still tried to dissuade, "There are so many money, food and equipment in Xicheng."

Fan Zhongjie thought for a while and said, "The silver in the Shanyang Treasury will not be moved, anyway, even if it is burned, it will not seep into the soil and disappear, but it is a pity if the grain is burned."

"Food can be dropped at night." Yan Yingyuan said.

"Just leave a portion on the outside of the warehouse for inspection."

"Cheng, then it's decided." Fan Zhongjie said solemnly.

Seeing that the dissuasion failed, Zhi Tingzhi could only let out a long sigh.

Then he threw himself to the ground towards Yan Yingyuan and Fan Zhongjie: "Fuzun and virtuous brothers, please accept my worship."

Yan Yingyuan and Fan Zhongjie followed each other, and after standing up, both of them showed a first-class smile on their faces, seeing the two of them smiling, Zhi Ting's heart increased his admiration, and this sincere countryman also.

……

On the twenty-eighth day of April in the eighteenth year of Chongzhen, the army of Duoduo once again returned to the outside of Shanyang City.

At this time, Hou Fangyu had already taken Fan Chengmo to wait outside Shanyang City.

With Hou Fangyu's identity as the prince of the country, the territory of the Ming Dynasty can be unimpeded.

Fan Chengmo and Hou Fangyu snapped their sleeves and knelt down on one knee to greet Duofeng.

"Excuse me." Duoduo waved his hand and asked, "How's it going?"

"Lord Wang, the slave is about to congratulate you." Hou Fangyu couldn't help but say happily, "The slave has already persuaded Mao Xiang with his three-inch incorruptible tongue to take Shanyang for you, the prince."

"What?" This was a bit of a surprise for Dord.

He Luohui next to him is even more brilliant, with a three-inch tongue?

"Hou Fangyu, did you really convince Mao Xiang?" Dordort was a little skeptical.

When Hou Fangyu was sent into the city to carry out the divisive plan, Duoduo also had the mentality of giving it a try, it was good to succeed, but it was nothing if it didn't work, but Duoduo really didn't have much hope for this.

Unexpectedly, Hou Fangyu, the dog minion, actually gave him a surprise.

"Back to the prince, the slave really persuaded Mao Xiang." Hou Fangyu replied with great certainty, "If the prince doesn't believe it, you can ask the elder brother."

[Fan Chengmo, the word pilgrimage]

Duoduo turned his gaze to Fan Chengmo, "Is this really the case?"

Fan Chengmo hurriedly said, "Master, Mao Xiang has indeed agreed to return to the Qing Dynasty and has already arrested Yan Yingyuan."

"What did you say?" This Duoduo was even more surprised, and said hurriedly, "Mao Xiang has already arrested Yan Yingyuan?"

He Luohui, Tunqi and Ah Shan and other Eight Banner nobles also looked at each other, which was really beyond their expectations.

Before, they fought Shanyang for a full month, and nearly 10,000 people died, and Shanyang City was immovable, but this time they withdrew their troops and went to the Lianghuai Salt Farm to rob for half a month, but the situation in Shanyang has changed dramatically?

Hou Fangyu said, "Master, Mao Xiang has not only arrested Yan Yingyuan, but also Fan Zhongjie, the prefect of Huai'an, who is also in Xicheng."

"Now the impostor has taken full control of Shanyang West City."

Speaking of this, he said: "It's a pity that the Shanyang County Commander Zhi Tingzhi noticed the abnormality of Mao Xiang and closed the canal lock bridge and the west gate in advance, so the eastern city of Shanyang is still under the control of the Ming army."

"Wait, wait, wait." Duoduo interrupted Hou Fangyu and said, "You let this king pick it up first."

Hou Fangyu's words were a bit informative, and Duoduo's mind was a little messy, and he had to take care of it.

Speaking of this, Duoduo said, "Do you mean that Mao Xiang has surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and he not only controlled Shanyang Xicheng, but also arrested Yan Yingyuan and the prefect of Huai'an Mansion?"

Hou Fangyu said, "Yes, Shanyang Xicheng is already the city of the Qing Dynasty."

Fan Chengmo then said, "Master, Mao Xiang is waiting for your summons at the gate of the city at this time, you only need an edict to summon him to the army, and at the same time, you can also send troops to take over Shanyang Xicheng."

"Don't rush to send troops, don't rush first." Duoduo's mind was still clear.

In any case, Duoduo has read the popular romance of the Three Kingdoms no less than twenty times.

Cao Cao in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a smart individual, if he was not deceived into Puyang City by Chen Gong with a letter, if it wasn't for Meng General Dian Wei desperately saving him, Cao Cao would have been burned to ashes directly.

Therefore, Dodor would never send troops into the city easily.

Even Fan Chengmo repeatedly promised that he would not send troops.

Because Yan Yingyuan was too cunning, Duoduo was a little afraid of him.

After a pause, Dodor said, "Let's see the precautionary first."

Hou Fangyu volunteered and said, "The prince will wait a minute, and the slave will summon him here."

After about a quarter of an hour or so, Hou Fangyu really brought Mao Xiang to Duoduo.

Looking at the presumptuous walking in a shirt, He Luohui and other Eight Banner nobles were a little confused.

Duoduo also felt a little emotional, and now he finally had a deep understanding of why Huang Taiji had to work so hard to recruit Hong Chengchou.

For no other reason, just because Hong Chengchou is worth it.

Let's just say that this impostor in front of him is worth at least fifteen Niu Lu's Eight Banner Soldiers!

No, not only fifteen Niu Lu, because the Eight Banner soldiers who died fifteen Niu Lu failed to take Shanyang, but this person helped them take Shanyang without blood.

This is the usefulness of scholars such as Mao Xiang and Hong Chengchou.

"Descending." Mao Xiang threw a long flick towards Duoduo to the ground, "See the prince."

"You're just a presumptuous?" Duoduo looked Mao Xiang up and down, without any expression on his face, "That Qinwang scholar who guarded Shanyang with Yan Yingyuan?"

He replied, "It's down there."

Duoduo said again, "This king heard that you have arrested Yan Yingyuan and the prefect of Huai'an?"

"Back to the prince, this is indeed the case." Mao Xiang replied, "Because these two people don't know the current affairs, they don't understand the truth that good birds choose trees to perch on, and good ministers choose their masters to do things, and they only know that they are blindly loyal to the Ming Dynasty and Chongzhen, so they can only be taken down."

After saying this, Mao Xiang said: "But after all, these two people are also loyal ministers, and please ask the prince to spare the two of them from dying, in addition to the people of Shanyang, please don't be angry with them, especially not to slaughter the city, so as not to chill the hearts of the people in the world, otherwise it will be quite unfavorable for me to pacify Jiangnan in the future."

"No, absolutely not!" The Blue Flag Gushan Ezhen Tunqi said angrily, "Then the Huai'an Prefect can spare him from dying, but Yan Yingyuan must die, and he has to skin and cramp!" And Sanyang must also slaughter the city!"

"Tunqi!" Duoduo didn't squeak with a dark face, but He Luohui said angrily, "Master, how can you speak?"

"Lord Wang, as long as you say a word about other things, we will not allow us to set the blue flag, but this matter will not work." Tun Qi said angrily, "If you don't kill Yan Yingyuan and don't slaughter Shanyang City, I won't accept the blue flag, and I will definitely not accept it!"

"Shut up." Duoduo finally couldn't help it anymore and said angrily, "Drag it down with this king!"

Immediately, two Baya soldiers with white flags strode forward and forcibly set up Tunqi and dragged them away.

"Let the gentleman smile." Duoduo smiled at Mao Xiang with some embarrassment, and then said with a straight face, "But what this dog slave said just now is not unreasonable, Yan Yingyuan must die, and Shanyang City must also be slaughtered!"

"Huh?" Mao Xiang suddenly changed color and said, "Lord Wang, did you promise me?"

Hou Fangyu next to him was also a little embarrassed, because the condition was that he should replace Duoduo.

Dodor said, "This king promised you, so the west city can not be slaughtered, but the east city must be slaughtered!"

Mao Xiang sneered in his heart, Dongcheng must be slaughtered? You've got to do it! However, Mao Xiang was silent on the surface, and the sheep pretended to sigh helplessly, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

After all, it is a person under the eaves, and he can't help but bow his head.

Seeing this, Duoduo no longer had any doubts in his heart.

Just now, he had been observing Mao Xiang's words and deeds, trying to see if there was any fraud in them?

But so far, Duoduo has not seen any flaws, and the risk should be a real surrender, not a fraudulent surrender, and besides, how can there be such a fraudulent surrender that puts himself in danger?

Even so, however, Dodor was a little more careful.

Duoduo stayed behind and asked Hou Fangyu to accompany Ah Shan into the city, and first took over Shanyang West City.

In addition to Hou Fangyu, there was also a Jiala with a white flag who entered the city with Ah Shan, and Duoduo was still very careful and did not dare to send too many troops, so he only let Ah Shan bring a Jia Lama into the city.

Moreover, this Jiala was drawn from the yellow flag before.

Soon, Ahsan sent a team of Bayala soldiers to escort Hou Fangyu back.

Bayala reported to Duoduo that he saw Yan Yingyuan and the Huai'an prefect in the government prison.

In addition, they have sent troops to take over the east and west gates of Xicheng, and the Shanyang Library has also taken over.

Hearing that the Zhengbai Banner had taken over Shanyang Mansion, the eyes of Duoduo and the Eight Banner nobles suddenly lit up.

Duoduo couldn't help but ask, "Hou Fangyu said that there are at least 500,000 stone grain and millions of taels of silver stored in the Shanyang Treasury, have you ever seen silver and grain?"

"Back to the master, I'll see you." Baya Lama nodded repeatedly.

"The grain in the warehouse is piled up, and the silver is filled with hundreds of large boxes."

"Have you checked?" He Luohui then asked, "Are those sacks really filled with grain?" And the box is really silver? It can't be a brick, right?"

"It's all checked." "It's all silver."

Hou Fangyu also said: "Lord Wang, don't worry, Brother Bijiang is a real surrender, not a fraudulent surrender."

At this point, Duoduo no longer had a trace of doubt in his heart, no matter what, Shanyang Xicheng was already under the control of a Jiala of Zhengbai Banner, and the hundreds of thousands of stone grains and millions of taels of silver in Shanyang Mansion had also been returned to the Qing Dynasty.

At that moment, Duoduo asked Hou Fangyu to invite Mao Xiang over.

Duoduo himself took the hand of the horseman and said with a smile, "Go, and go with the king into the city."

Dodor immediately ordered the army to enter the city, and he himself led the horse at the head of the procession.

However, I don't know if it was because Yan Yingyuan had a psychological shadow, and at the moment before entering the city gate, Duoduo suddenly stopped and didn't move forward.

"Slow." Suddenly, Dodor raised his right hand.

The Eight Banners nobles and Bayala who accompanied him stopped one after another.

Mao Xiang looked back at Duoduo in astonishment and asked, "Lord Wang, why don't you stop?"

Duoduo didn't pay attention to the presumption, just looked up at the jack gate that was cowering above the city gate, and then frowned and looked at the West Gate Urn City in front of him, and there was an inexplicable tremor for a while.

This step is really Yan Yingyuan's trick...... Then he must be ten dead.

Thinking of this, Duoduo began to hesitate in his heart, whether to enter or not? Can you get in or not?

Duoduo rode his horse and stopped less than three feet from the city gate, hesitating, and he was secretly anxious.

Because he had already privately revised Yan Yingyuan's plan for death, and he had made up his mind alone, he did not discuss it with Yan Yingyuan and Fan Zhongjie.

What's worse is that, judging from the time, Xiang Yong is almost launched.

Once the village warrior is launched and Duoduo has not yet entered the city, it will be in vain.

At that moment, Mao Xiang couldn't help but urge Duoduo to say, "Lord, go into the city."

Duoduo's brows furrowed more and more when he heard this, are you in such a hurry?
