Li Yongfang did not believe everything Wei Qi said. A Jin man came to persuade a Ming man to surrender on behalf of the Ming people. The whole thing seemed so ridiculous, especially in his opinion, the Ming people did not have any control over the entire war situation.
What an advantage it has.
The one being surrounded was actually just his Malanyu Army Fortress. There were reinforcements from Shengjing and Liaoyang. If they really wanted to protect Malanyu and Panjiakou, reinforcements from any side would be enough to defeat Zhenjiang Fort.
The army has eaten a pot.
Therefore, he wanted to wait a little longer to see how the war in Liaoyang went.
But Wei Qi directly dismissed his idea. If Liaoyang Ming Dynasty wins, Malanyu will naturally have no chance to save it. However, if Liaoyang Ming Dynasty loses, it seems to be worse for him in Malanyu. The general manager of Dongjiang Town
Bing Jiangwan actually made harsh words, threatening to leave no one behind.
That is to find the Ming army's account at Malanyu.
Li Sizhong was quickly invited to Malanyu by him. In front of Wei Qi, he described Li Sizhong as a rebellious guy whose hands were stained with the blood of many Ming people. It would be difficult to surrender, but the actual situation was not like this.
.
After all, Li Yongfang still has a father-in-law, Baylor, but Li Sizhong has no backing. How could he achieve his current position without fighting against the Ming army? In the Han army, he is the target of being squeezed out, and even more
Let alone Shengjing, where Jin people gather.
He was even sure that if the situation was really unfavorable, Li Sizhong would be able to surrender much more easily than Li Yongfang.
In a few words, he told Li Sizhong the meaning of Wei Qi's visit. Li Yongfang looked at the other party solemnly: "Now we, Malanyu and Panjiakou, are grasshoppers on a rope. They should advance and retreat together. Since you are here today,
, if we two brothers don’t come up with a result through discussion, I’m afraid no one will be able to leave this house!”
"We have fought against the Ming army here in Zhenjiang Fort once or twice, so I asked the truth, can we beat them?"
"If we can survive, I will ask you to come over to discuss anything!"
Li Yongfang said angrily: "There are thirty or forty thousand people on the opposite side. Although there are not many cavalry, it seems that they don't need money to use firearms. The little property Yuan Chonghuan had in Ningyuan back then was nothing compared to Jiang Wan in Dongjiang Town.
It’s not much different if he’s not a beggar!”
"Then surrender!" Li Sizhong said nonchalantly: "Are you afraid that the other party will cross the river and burn the bridge? Zu Dashou has learned from the past. Who knows if Jiang Wan from Dongjiang Town will do the same to us?"
"So, even if you want to surrender, there must be a charter!" Li Yongfang nodded: "We can't open the city and hand over all the troops and horses in a hurry. In that case, if Jiang Wan turns against us, we will die.
It’s ugly!”
"What do you mean?" Li Sizhong nodded, this was also what he was worried about.
"Ning Wan, who is next to Wei Qi, gave us a bad idea and asked us to send a secret message to the Great Khan, saying that the situation was urgent and we had no choice but to pretend to surrender to the other side. If there is a chance in the future, in the
Return with the army!"
"What nonsense!" Li Sizhong sneered: "If it were you, would you believe this?"
"Of course I don't believe it, but after receiving this letter, our family members staying in Shengjing may have a better life!" Li Yongfang frowned: "As for what will happen in the future, who knows!?"
"Then don't send this letter!"
Li Sizhong shook his head: "We don't need to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. I have an idea. If possible, my skills will satisfy the people of the Ming Dynasty, and we will have no worries..."
"Oh, tell me!"
Two days later, a secret letter from Malanyu appeared in Jiang Wan's hands. The secret letter was written by Li Yongfang and signed by not only Li Yongfang but also Li Sizhong.
"Changing cities?"
When Gao Gaosheng saw Jiang Wan's letter to him, his face was filled with astonishment: "The two of them have a pretty good idea. When the time comes, no matter whether it's the Tartars or us, they won't be offended. Whoever wins will win."
benefit!"
"I think it's actually a good deal to exchange a mere Xian'an Mansion for these two military forts!"
Jiang Wan tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "This Xian'an Mansion does not belong to our Ming Dynasty in the first place. They led their troops to retreat there and they had an explanation for Huang Taiji. They were unable to defeat our Dongjiang Town troops.
It makes sense for the army to retreat to North Korea!"
"For us, we have acquired Malanyu and Panjiakou. From then on, Zhenjiangbao and Kuandian are connected, and the territory has been expanded several times. It's worth it!"
"Does the commander intend to agree to them?" Gao Xingsheng said: "Their entire army retreated to Xian'an Prefecture, which will also be a trouble for our Dongjiang Town in the future, just like Wupidao was to the former Zhenjiang Fort. Behind our rear, if
A thorn in the flesh and a thorn in the eye!”
"It's just a temporary measure!"
Jiang Wan said with a smile: "Ning'an Road is not rich to begin with. It is already very difficult to support tens of thousands of them. You would never think that I would let him take away a large number of people from these two military forts."
Let’s get some military rations!”
"And after they retreated to Xian'an Prefecture, there were Kuandian, Malanyu, Panjiakou, and the Pyongyang garrison in the three directions of southeast and west. They were like a chain that locked them tightly on Ning'an Road. What could they do?
, If anything happens, we can force them to run away in a hurry today, and we can easily wipe them out completely tomorrow!"
"As long as our troops in Dongjiang Town are strong, they will not dare to act rashly!"
"The handsome man is wise!" Gao Sheng thought for a while and praised him sincerely.
"Send orders to the Nanhai Camp and the Guards Camp!"
Jiang Wan said: "After ordering the Nanhai Battalion to cooperate with the Guard Battalion to obtain Panjiakou and Malanyu, the whole battalion will be stationed in Kuandian Fort, clear out the remaining enemies in the surrounding areas, and gather the people; order the Guard Battalion to set off from Kuandian immediately and join the Nanhai Camp.
Go to Li Yongfang and Li Sizhong and take over the two military forts of Malanyu and Panjiakou. In addition, he tells Li Zicheng that only generals with Han banners can leave these two military forts, and not a single Tartar can leave. And this matter,
Let Li Yongfang and Li Sizhong take care of it themselves. It's not that easy to leave cleanly. If they don't let him kill some of their own people, they can turn back at any time!"
"I understand, I'm going to draw my destiny now!"
"And!" Jiang Wan specifically asked: "Immediately, the Han army flag generals in these two military forts are only allowed to carry three days of military rations in addition to their sidearms. If they find that the other party has the ability to destroy the facilities in the military fort,
Actions like burning military rations and equipment told Li Zicheng that he could kill people freely!"
Jiang Wan's orders were remembered one by one by Gao Xingsheng. After a while, these orders were turned into military orders and they flew out of Zhenjiang Fort.
Knowing that the military order was issued, Gao Sheng suddenly felt relieved from the pressure on his body. However, what he didn't know was that even if there was hope for a solution to Li Yongfang's matter, as the person at the helm of Dongjiang Town, Jiang Wan
It didn't feel much easier.
In front of him, the enemy of Liaoyang is still hundreds of miles away, and Song Jian and the mutinous battalions on the other side of Pi Island have become an urgent problem that he needs to solve at this moment. If this problem is not solved, Liaoyang will
There, he couldn't help much at all, and it had already been more than a month since Huang Taiji sent troops to Liaoyang.
The original Battle of Daling River only lasted for sixty-three days. After sixty-three days, the city of Daling River was like a hell on earth, with soldiers and civilians eating each other. He did not want to see Liaoyang become like that.
