None of the heroes expected that the officers and soldiers would be so vigorous, and they were all surprised. The tiger head said: "Damn, the people of Jiangbei were slaughtered by the Qing army and didn't see Ma Shiying frown, now that his son is tied up, so many military horses have been dispatched, this old thief is really hateful!"

Duan Hongyu said: "I knew that Ma Shiying could put such a big mind, we might as well transfer the Zhentian Army and fight an ambush war here, if we can incorporate all these troops, the people of Jiangnan will be blessed!"

Zuo Hanbing said with a smile: "If we can make the Ming Dynasty so dark, it is worth it for us to be killed by the cannon." ”

All the heroes retreated into the courtyard and closed the door.

Soon, the official army surrounded the Guning Palace. I only heard Xia Qianxun's voice outside: "Duan Hongyu, Lord Ben knows that you did it, you come out quickly and die, if you don't come out, you will fire ten thousand cannons, and you will turn into powder in an instant! Master Ma has always been selfless, and he must not let you thieves go for the sake of his son, you can only be blown up alive if you don't come out inside, if you open the door and surrender, Lord Ma can still let you live. ”

The heroes only drank tea and laughed in the hall, and ignored Xia Qianxun at all.

Xia Qianxun pulled his neck and shouted for a long time, and when he saw that the heroes were not moved at all, he said: "Duan Hongyu, tell me all the conditions you have, I, Xia Qianxun, will talk to you!"

The tiger-headed bachelor walked into the courtyard and said in a loud voice: "Xia Qianxun, you should save your voice!" Duan Gongzi has already explained, and if you want to talk to him, you are not qualified at all, and let you go as far as you want, hurry up and let Ma Shiying come to talk in person!"

Xia Qianxun was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but that the other party had a hostage in his hand, so he hurriedly went back to discuss with Ma Shiying.

After a while, I only heard Xia Qianxun say: "Duan Gongzi, open the door quickly! Lord Xia has arrived!"

Only then did the tiger-headed bachelor open the courtyard door. I saw Ma Shiying and Xia Qianxun walking forward surrounded by a large group of generals.

The tiger-headed bachelor said loudly: "You all step aside, only Lord Ma and Lord Xia can come in!"

Ma Shiying and Xia Qianxun had no choice but to let the rest of the officers and soldiers stay outside.

At this time, Duan Hongyu led the group to the courtyard and let Ma Shiying and Xia Qianxun into the palace.

After taking his seat, Ma Shiying expected that Duan Hongyu's trip was not just for Zhang Jinding, so he said: "Duan Gongzi, you tied the dog here, I don't know what is important?"

Duan Hongyu said: "Master Ma, don't hide it, it is also helpless to invite the third prince here, the Qing army is now very strong, and it will soon go south, and when the Qing army arrives, I am afraid that Nanjing is in danger, and the people of Jiangnan will live under the iron hooves of foreign races!"

Xia Qianxun said: "Nonsense, there are millions of heroes in the south of the Yangtze River, and thousands of fierce generals, why are you afraid of him being captured? If they dare to lead the army south, Lord Ben can lead troops to destroy them!"

Duan Hongyu said with a smile: "Since Lord Xia is so powerful, why don't you destroy the Qing army in the north, and wait until the enemy kills him before he makes a move?"

Xia Qianxun said angrily: "You-"

Duan Hongyu said: "Lord Xia, don't deceive you, the soldiers of Jiangnan don't have much combat power at all, and when the Qing army comes, it will be a miracle that Nanjing can hold for a year!"

Although Ma Shiying is not loyal, he has always regarded Jiangnan as his territory, and when he thinks of the strength of the Qing army, the kingdom he has worked hard to manage will be wiped out in a blink of an eye, and he can't help but fight a cold war, and said: "But I don't know what good plan the son has?"

Duan Hongyu said: "I can't hide it, my Zhentian army is still tens of thousands, plus the heroes of the green forests from all walks of life in Jiangbei, there are hundreds of thousands of people, and the people of Jiangbei are all looking forward to the king." If the forces of all sides in China can stop fighting and fight in unity, why worry that the Qing army will not be destroyed?"

Xia Qianxun sneered and said, "As far as your rabble is concerned, what kind of combat power do you have?"

Duan Hongyu said sharply: "Lord Xia, if it weren't for my Green Forest Heroes harassing the Qing army in Jiangbei, I am afraid that the Qing army's iron cavalry would have already gone south, how could you have a good life? Although the combat power of my Zhentian Army is not comparable to the Qing army and the Wu army, it is definitely far above your army!"

Although Xia Qianxun still looked disdainful on the surface, he had to admit in his heart that the current combat effectiveness of the Zhentian Army had indeed far exceeded that of the Ming Army.

Listening to Duan Hongyu's words, Ma Shiying also cocked his nose: "It seems that Duan Gongzi wants to recruit An?" Gongzi just rest assured, as long as he is willing to abandon the secret and turn to the light, this Lord will definitely speak well for Gongzi in front of the emperor!"

Duan Hongyu said with a smile: "I Zhentian Army really don't want to recruit An, I just want to unite with Daming!"

Ma Shiying said angrily: "You don't want to recruit An, do you want to be like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to be emperors?"

Duan Hongyu said: "I really don't have the heart of the emperor, nor does I have the strategy of the emperor, I just want to save the people of Li with blood." I, the Zhentian Army, must not be absorbed by the official army, but I can play the banner of the Ming Dynasty!"

Xia Qianxun said: "Fuck, you use my banner to deceive, are we stupid?"

Duan Hongyu said with a smile: "Lord Xia, you don't let me play the banner of the Ming Dynasty, do you want me to play the banner of the Qing Dynasty or continue to play the banner of the Great Shun?"

Ma Shiying and Xia Qianxun couldn't help but gasp when they thought of the current strength of Daming. Now the Ming Dynasty is biased in a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, it is no longer Hongwu, Yongle, or even Wanli, Chongzhen period, as long as someone is willing to buy the Ming account, it is already commendable. Now Duan Hongyu's Zhentian Army is developing very rapidly, and all forces are willing to win it over. Ma Shiying and Xia Qianxun were naturally no exception, they had long wanted to win over Duan Hongyu, but they knew that these green forest heroes had great hatred for the officials and soldiers, and they were not easy to manage, so they didn't dare to provoke easily. In fact, with the development of the situation, the alliance between the two sides has come naturally, but Duan Hongyu and Zuo Hanbing have insight into the trend of the world before others and take the initiative to put it forward. Sure enough, as soon as they heard Duan Hongyu's words, Ma Shiying and Xia Qianxun were also very happy, Ma Shiying said: "Duan Gongzi just rest assured, your Zhentian Army only moves freely, and the officials and soldiers will never interfere!"

Duan Hongyu said: "I can't just Zhentian Army, the imperial court must treat Dashun and Daxi equally with the status of a country!"

Ma Shiying was furious, and said: "This is not good! Li Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong have been in trouble for the world for many years, and their lives have been ruined, and you actually want them to be on an equal footing with my Ming Emperor, that is wishful thinking!"

Duan Hongyu said: "Dashun and Daxi have been established for a long time, and it is a fait accompli. If the Ming, Shun, and Western countries form an alliance, it will be enough to contend with the Qing Dynasty!"
