Chapter 297 Mrs. Xing

When analyzing Gao Jie's escape route to Shandong, the Huai Army generals had two generals. One was that Gao Jie would go south along the canal, so as long as he set up defenses in the Yutai, the place where the canal must pass, he would definitely block Gao Jie;

The second opinion is that if Gao Jie's troops came from Henan, they might not necessarily go deep into the canal line and flee south, but might go south to Xuzhou because this road is relatively close.

"Block both paths to him. We always have one principle when doing things, that is, both hands must be hard and soft, and none of them can do it."

After receiving the order from the governor, the first town of the Huai Army that set out from Xuzhou to cross the Yellow River immediately went north from Dangshan County to Shan County, Caozhou, Shandong.

More than 20,000 military and civilians in Shan County surrendered to the Huai Army, becoming the first county occupied by the Huai Army after entering Shandong.

At the same time, Li Qifeng, who was ordered to find Gao Jie's army north, found Gao Jie's army in Zhailiji in Jinxiang County. At that time, Li Chengdong, a general under Gao Jie's army, led his cavalry to encircle and suppress a local territorial bandit due to heavy rains.

The Turkish bandits were not supported, and dozens of people were killed. The rest were scattered. As a result, they were discovered by a hundred elite cavalry led by Li Qifeng on the way to escape. They intercepted and caught two Turkish bandits and found out that there was a group of soldiers gathering in the village. Although it was not as the governor said that the Shun Banner was still the Ming army, Li Qifeng still determined that this group was Gao Jie's army fleeing south.

While sending people to Yutai, Li Qifeng rushed to the village to market. Because his troops did not use banners, all the armored soldiers of the Huai Army were seized from the Ming army, so Li Chengdong mistakenly believed that it was the Qing army of Liu Ze of Xuzhou, and hurriedly sent people to contact him.

Li Qifeng led his troops to Li Chengdong's army, and then he said that he was the general of Gansu Town and asked who Li Chengdong's army was, where did he come from and where he went.

Li Chengdong did not doubt it and told everyone.

Li Qifeng pretended to be surprised and said, "It was originally a soldier who crossed the mountain and harrier. I have long admired him!" Then he asked about Hu Maozhen's whereabouts and said that he was an old friend of Hu Maozhen and had fought with the thieves two times back then.

Li Chengdong was even more unquestionable and quickly asked someone to tell Hu Maozhen who was leading troops to find food nearby that he would like to recruit Dong and Li Qifeng and his entourage with his adopted son Li Yuanyin.

Seeing that although Li Chengdong's troops captured the turf's nest, they did not seize much food. The officers and soldiers looked sophisticated, but they all had obvious dishes. Li Qifeng asked the officers and soldiers to take out the bacon and dried meat and eggs they carried and gave them to the Li army, which made the Li army grateful.

Not long after, Hu Maozhen arrived after hearing the news. When he saw Li Qifeng, he was excited and stepped forward to have a passionate talk with the general of Gansu Town.

Everyone was eating, and Li Qifeng suddenly put down his chopsticks and held out his actual identity with Li Chengdong and Hu Maozhen. Li and Hu were shocked. When they heard that Xuzhou and Huaiyang were all occupied by the Dashun Huaiyin Marquis who Li Qifeng called him. There was a hundred thousand Huai troops heading north, and the two were so shocked that they could not say a word.

"I met Lao Hu and I met him for a while, and then I came to tell you the truth. Is it willing or not to you? But I think you just don't want to follow my marquis. You will never tie me up and kill me."

Li Qifeng laughed, but actually felt a little sarcastic. After all, these people were born as bandits in the past, and it would be unfair to kill him by following the rules.

"Li Zhen underestimates Shuangfeng and Huzi!"

Hu Maozhen stood up and bowed to Li Qifeng, politely asked him and his entourage to wait outside the tent first, and allow him to discuss with Li Chengdong.

“Okay.”

Li Qifeng untied the sword and threw it on the table. He picked up a salted duck and peeled it while saying, "If you really don't believe you, Hu Shuangfeng, why should I come?"

After saying that, he walked out of the house.

Inside the house, after a moment of silence, Hu Maozhen asked Li Chengdong what he thought.

"If what Li Qifeng said is true, we will definitely be able to go to Xuzhou." Li Chengdong's face was solemn.

Li Yuanyin interjected: "Father, I'm afraid they will come to beat us."

"Liu Zeqing was defeated by the Huaiyin Marquis. This man's military strength is not something we can do. If we do not surrender, we will die in front of the Huaiyin Marquis and Li Zicheng behind." Hu Maozhen frowned.

"We don't know what kind of holidays Gao Shuai and Li Zicheng have to celebrate. This Marquis of Huaiyin is a Dashun person. If we surrender him, wouldn't it be like surrendering Li Zicheng? What should Gao Shuai and his wife do then? Father, we can't let our wife down!"

Li Yuanyin was worried that his father would waver in surrender.

"Ship Gao waits for us to be kind to you. This matter will be decided by Gao Shuai himself." Li Chengdong sighed and asked Yuan Yin to invite Li Qifeng outside, so that they could not make decisions. Gao Jie had to make a decision.

"This is your loyalty. If you really don't think about it, you will join my marquis. I'm afraid that my marquis will never believe you."

Li Qifeng smiled "haha" and immediately suggested that he follow Li and Hu to meet Gao Jie, and his subordinates stayed in the village to gather.

This is a posture.

Li Chengdong and Hu Maozhen looked at each other and agreed. They immediately took Li Qifeng to the north to meet Gao Jie. The group arrived in the evening. When they heard that Li Chengdong and Hu Maozhen came over, Gao Jie was surprised and knew that something must have happened. He hurriedly called the two of them over and asked them to invite their wife Xing.

Although Mrs. Xing was a woman, Li Zicheng said that she was a general and her talent was above appearance. Therefore, although Gao Jie was rebellious, she obeyed Mrs. Xing. All matters in the army were always dominated by Xing.

"Shuangfeng and Huzi come together, they must be unable to make up their minds if something happens."

Mrs. Xing knew the situation with her words and joined hands with her husband Gao Jie to the army. After hearing what Hu Maozhen said, Gao Jie became more and more despicable, panicked, and uneasy.

Mrs. Xing calmly said, "That marquis did not send troops to fight, but asked him to surrender to come to find us in the future. So he would have to be in the same mind as Li Zicheng. Things will turn around. My husband will just follow my decision."

After saying that, Hu Maozhen asked Li Qifeng to come in, wait for the guests and inquire about the situation in the south in detail.

Li Qifeng said everything he knew.

After hearing that Li Zicheng entered Beijing, he was beaten out of Beijing by Manzhou people and Wu Sangui. Gao Jie and others were shocked. Unexpectedly, they fled south to this moon, and such a shocking change occurred in the north.

"My marquis has something to say. In addition to collecting Shandong this time, our Huai Army will block the Manzhou people in the north. The marquis said that those who are willing to kill the Tartars with him will give them all, and the territory will be given to them. If General Gao goes north, he can place several prefectures in Shandong."

After Li Qifeng finished speaking, hesitated and said, "There is a condition."

Mrs. Xing said calmly: "What are the conditions?"

"That is, I ask my wife and the families of the generals to settle in Yangzhou."

Li Qifeng said truthfully, thinking that this condition would make Mrs. Xing angry, but she didn't expect that the other party smiled and said, "This is what it should be. If I were your marquis, I would have to make such arrangements."

Li Qifeng nodded.

Mrs. Xing said again: "Do you have anything else to say?"

"What?" Li Qifeng was stunned.

"What if my husband doesn't want to surrender?" Mrs. Xing chuckled.

"The heroes among the ladies, you can't hide anything from the lady. Well, I'll just say Lao Li. Actually, the Marquis has another word."

"Please say it."

"The Marquis said that if General Gao refused to surrender, then he had to lead the army to slap General Gao, kill his subordinates, and kill his wife and children."

Gao Jie was furious and stood up and cursed, "Damn his grandma, he dares!"

"What are you scolding? Is there anything wrong with what people say? Sit down."

"Madam, I'm so bullying."
