Hearing Yang Chengying's words, not to mention Ma Shilong, even the Guan Ning Army and the family, who had just been assigned to Yang Chengying's command, were taken aback.

Those who know say that this is King Qin, and those who don't know think that it is a siege.

Yang Chengying glanced at Ma Shilong: "Master Ma, let's not be limited to the form, but take a long-term view." If you don't take Funing, how can you enter the king of Jingqin. ”

"This ...... Everything is decided by Yang Houye. ”

Ma Shilong thought about it, if the above blamed him, he would push these things to Yang Chengying.

Yang Chengying nodded and looked at the generals of the Guanning Army, "Do any of you be familiar with the terrain in the Funing area as a guide." ”

He Kegang came out of the list and said: "Liu Yingxuan is the most suitable." ”

Hearing He Kegang mention himself, a young general came out of the ranks: "Handsome! ”

"As a guide, you will lead the way for Sun Dingliao and Kong Youde, and by the way, negotiate with the magistrate of Funing and let him open the city." Yang Chengying said.

"Subordinates remember." Liu Yingxuan nodded.

Of the four major battalions from the Thirteen Mountains Righteous Army, only the Lion Battalion has never had a chance to perform.

After Sun Dingliao went back and said the task, the whole battalion was excited.

Not only because there is a chance to perform, but also because this is the first battle of the Golden State Army, and it must be fought well.

Kong Youde knew this very well, carefully selected 3,000 elite cavalry, joined forces with Sun Dingliao, and marched towards Funing under the guidance of Liu Yingxuan.

On the sixth day of the first month, the army arrived in Funing.

Liu Yingxuan shouted under the city: "I am Liu Yingxuan, the guerrilla general of the Guanning Army, and I led the army to assist in the defense of Funing City on the order of General Ma. ”

The content of the shouting is different from what Yang Cheng requested.

This was Kong Youde's idea temporarily.

Kong Youde felt that Dashuai had a great reputation outside the Guan, but not in the Guan. Moreover, Ma Shilong's reputation as Wu Jingluo may be better than the reputation of the handsome.

Finally, the people in Guannai are more familiar with the Guanning Army than the Jinzhou Army.

So after summing up with Sun Dingliao on the road, let Liu Yingxuan shout like this.

However, when Funing Zhixian saw the well-armored and morale-boosting Ming army under the city, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants.

The ghost believes that they are the Ming army, and it is not clear that they are pretending to be Tartars.

"You, do you have a decree from Inspector Sun?" Funing Zhixian was on the city tower and asked tremblingly.

"Absolutely."

Kong Youde's eyes rolled and he had an idea: "You send someone out, I'll show you." ”

Liu Yingxuan was taken aback and looked back at Kong Youde. thought to himself, he was worthy of being a general under Yang Shuai, and he didn't even blink his eyelids when he lied.

"Even if there is an edict, Funing is not under the jurisdiction of Inspector Sun, please leave." Funing Zhixian didn't even have the courage to let people out of the city with a basket and take a look at the warrant.

"County master, listen to Kong's advice."

Kong Youde said in a loud voice: "If we have evil intentions, can the small Funing City withstand my army?" Obediently let us into the city, and defend you against the tartars. ”

Funing Zhixian trembled, and his head almost fell into a blank.

"If we don't open the door again, we'll get in!" Kong Youde threatened in a loud voice.

When Funing Zhixian heard this, he was so frightened that his legs were weak, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Kong Youde's words made sense, so he ordered the city gate to be opened.

Looking at the city gate that was pushed open with a creak, Liu Yingxuan asked in surprise: "General Kong, are you really fighting?" ”

"Why don't you fight? Joining the Ming army is too honest, so it will be controlled everywhere. ”

Kong Youde said eloquently: "If you want to defeat the Tartars, you must not be restricted by rules and regulations. ”

Rough, what a fight!

Liu Yingxuan panicked, and had to admire Kong Youde for really carrying out Yang Shuai's orders.

After the army entered the city, Kong Youde transferred troops to defend the city, and at the same time gathered the squires and rich squires in the city with Sun Dingliao.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are here to assist in the defense of Funing on the orders of General Ma."

Kong Youde clenched his fists and said to these squires: "Once the city is broken, you will be the same as Yongping City, and you will inevitably be slaughtered." ”

"What do you mean by general?"

A shriveled, thin old man boldly asked.

"Each man shall give one-third of his family property and reward the soldiers who defend the city."

Kong Youde said with a smile: "With money and food, they can defend Funing City to the death to ensure that your property is not all damaged." ”

As soon as they heard that they were asking for money and food, the squire's heads shook like rattles.

There is only one sentence "no".

"Oh, I can't imagine that the local gentry are so disobedient."

Kong Youde said, touching the saber on his waist.

When the squires saw this scene, their faces were as pale as earth.

Sun Dingliao was very cooperative, his eyes signaled to the soldiers under his command, and made a serious expression.

The atmosphere became tense for a while.

Funing Zhixian hurriedly stepped forward: "General Ma sent troops to assist in the defense of our Funing City, aiming to protect the territory and the people, how can you harass the good people?" I am not afraid of a piece of paper and sue Inspector Sun. ”

"General Ma guards the border and the people, but we are the Jinzhou Army."

Kong Youde said slyly: "Haven't you heard that the Jinzhou Army has always been unruly. ”

"This ......" Funing Zhixian regretted it a little.

Kong Youde looked at the squires: "Everyone, I'll give you a day to think about, and don't blame me for being polite when the time comes." ”

"Yes, yes, we must think about it."

The old man and the squires retreated one after another.

Liu Yingxuan was puzzled: "General Kong, we have enough money and food, why...... And to do this kind of thing. ”

"No one is disgusted with money, the more the merrier. Moreover, the soldiers defending the city were so hungry that they needed someone to give them a bite to eat. ”

Kong Youde said with a smile: "Defend the city for them, and also pay for their poor city guards, how can there be such a good thing in the world." ”

"Oh." Liu Yingxuan nodded thoughtfully.

While dealing with the squire, the Houjin army suddenly came.

On the eighth day of the first month, Huang Taiji sent Darhan to lead a thousand banners to attack Funing City.

The sentry cavalry sent by Kong Youde found the Houjin army and immediately reported back.

"The enemy is very fast, we have just entered the front foot, and the enemy is coming on the back foot."

Sun Dingliao rubbed his hands, and his excitement was beyond words.

"The number of enemies coming is not large, which means that they don't know that we are stationed in Funing."

Kong Youde calmly analyzed: "We can let Liu Yingxuan shout at the city gate to attract the Tartars into the city." We led our army to ambush on both sides of the urn city, closed the door and beat the dogs! ”

"Hahaha...... Lao Kong, you are really a ghost idea to fight. Sun Dingliao laughed.

As a result, the whole army lay in ambush on both sides of the urn city.

Liu Yingxuan appeared on the city tower and shouted to the forward soldiers of the Houjin Army: "I am Liu Yingxuan, the left battalion of the Guanning Army, and the Guanning Army is suspected of foreign countries by the imperial court, you enter the city, I will open the city gate for you." ”

Among the Houjin soldiers, Liu Yingxuan knew him and told Darhan about it.

"The enemy's gates were wide open, and there were hungry soldiers on the towers."

Darhan speculated: "Maybe this is an empty city plan, luring us into the city and then attacking us suddenly." ”

"So what do we do?" Someone asked.

"The Ming army didn't dare to go out of the city to fight, so we directly led the army to bypass Funing and go to Shanhaiguan to investigate."

Darhan had a big brain and came up with such a trick.
