East Factory Governor

Chapter 551 Liu Guoneng Sent Someone

In this way, it becomes much easier to encircle and suppress these miscellaneous bandits.The general process is that when they arrive at a certain place, the White Lotus Sect will come to the door and tell Qin Shuhuai where the local bandits are stationed. Qin Shuhuai will randomly send thousands of people up to beat them up, and they will be surrounded and wiped out.

However, what Qin Shuhuai suppressed were all rogues who were not well-known among the miscellaneous brands, and most of them were not well-known, because some famous rogues were all concentrated around Weinan City under Li Zicheng's arrangement.

Just stopping and stopping all the way, it took more than two days to reach the Weinan city, and it took five days to walk.However, more than 2 rogues were eliminated on the road—although they were all vulnerable, leaving the officers and soldiers with no sense of accomplishment.

After arriving at an open space twenty miles outside Weinan City, Qin Shuhuai set up camp, and then sent a large number of factory guard elites to investigate near Weinan City.

He expected that the rogue bandits from Shaanxi had already gathered here, if they went forward without checking clearly, they would definitely suffer losses.

In the evening, seven or eight groups of Bailian Sect members came to his station. These people were all kinds of gangsters from outside Weinan, and some even became big bosses.

Based on the information of these seven or eight groups of people, Qin Shuhuai was delighted. Basically, the distribution of rogues around Weinan City was clearly on the paper.

In Baiheling, seven miles west of Weinan City, 1 people from Cui Shanhu were stationed; on Shangbeipo, six miles to the north of Weinan City, 5000 people from Nine Dragons were stationed; eight miles to the east of Weinan City, Qilang's men were stationed. 1 people, and there is a bandit leader called Chongtianzhu near him, with 8000 people...

After a comprehensive calculation, there are about [-] miscellaneous bandits around Weinan City, and there are about [-] "elite soldiers" under Li Zicheng's troops in Weinan City.

The Art of War says: Know yourself and the enemy and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles.Now the entire Weinan City and its surrounding areas are deployed like a woman who has taken off her clothes. If Qin Shuhuai can see enough, how difficult is this battle?

The generals were called together for a brief discussion, and they quickly worked out a battle plan.The plan is very simple, that is, the officers and soldiers will first attack the rogue bandits on the periphery, and see if Li Zicheng can rescue them.If he doesn't come out to rescue them, then first wipe out those miscellaneous rogues. If he comes out to rescue them, then the two sides will start a decisive battle in the wild - this is what the officers and soldiers can't wait for!

The army rested at the same place for one night, during which time the guards of the factory came out everywhere, hunting and killing suspicious people in the vicinity, so as not to allow the bandits to get information about the army so easily.

It was repaired until the fifth quarter of the ugly hour, before dawn, Qin Shuhuai ordered the army to prepare to move out, and started to suppress the bandits according to the previous plan.

According to the arrangement, He Kegang and He Renlong will take 5000 troops to Baiheling, seven miles west of the city, to encircle and suppress Cui Shanhu's 1 people.Qin Shuhuai and Zhang Xiao took 2 people to encircle and suppress the 5000 people from Nine Dragons eight miles east of the city.The reason why the two places were suppressed first was that Li Zicheng led an army to come out to rescue. If there were too many divisions of the army, they might be defeated one by one.The risk of splitting into two groups is not great, because Baihe Ridge and Shangbei Slope are not far away, and if they encounter Li Zicheng's army, the two groups will be able to merge soon.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard a report from someone outside the account.

"Reporting to Lord Hou, there is a person outside the door who says he is a close friend of Liu Guoneng under Gao Yingxiang's account, and can help Lord Hou take Weinan City."

Inside the big tent, He Kegang, Zhang Xiao, He Renlong, Meng Wei, Meng Hu, Zhiren, Wang Datong, Chang Wuji and others were greatly surprised, and even Qin Shuhuai frowned.

Meng Hu said, "Could it be a trick played by the bandits?"

Zhiren laughed and said, "That's not sure, maybe Liu Guoneng is afraid."

Qin Shuhuai thought for a while and said, "Let him in."

After a while, a thin middle-aged man came in. When he saw Qin Shuhuai, he knelt down and kowtowed.

"Little Liu Guoneng's personal guard captain fled to the sky and the monkey king all over the world to meet Qin Houye."

This guy didn't forget to report his nickname when he came to surrender, as if he was afraid that Qin Shuhuai would not take him seriously.

Qin Shuhuai said unhurriedly, "Get up."

After Wang Sihai got up, he took out a letter from his bosom, bent down respectfully, raised the letter above his head, and said, "Report to Lord Marquis, the little one is for my master, oh no, it's for the thief general Liu Guoneng." Liu Guoneng said that as long as the Hou Ye is willing to spare the lives of him and his brothers, he will cooperate with the Hou Ye to help the court recover Weinan City."

After hearing this, everyone immediately looked at Qin Shuhuai, but no one said anything.

Meng Wei took the letter and handed it to Qin Shuhuai.

Qin Shuhuai opened the letter and read it carefully, and couldn't help but feel agitated.

This letter is a blood book. In the letter, Liu Guoneng described in detail how Li Zicheng killed Gao Yingxiang and held the Weinan Conference to establish himself as Chuang Wang.Moreover, he also made the direct reason for his surrender to the army very clear, that is, he was afraid that Li Zicheng would harm him by taking [-] soldiers and horses in his hands.Instead, he might as well have surrendered to the army.

After reading the letter, Qin Shuhuai passed it to Meng Wei calmly, asking them to read it too.

Then he sank into thought himself.The amount of information in this letter is too large, and he needs to analyze it one by one.

First of all, Gao Yingxiang was killed by Li Zicheng, is this possible?

Qin Shuhuai pondered for a while, thinking it was very possible.When Li Zicheng rebelled back then, he had killed his old boss Wang Guo who had been so kind to him, so why not kill Gao Yingxiang for ambition now?Moreover, didn't Li Zicheng in history change from "Chuangjiang" to "Chuangwang" later, but it's just ahead of schedule now?

Secondly, Liu Guoneng wants to surrender to the army, is this possible?

This starts with the life trajectory of Liu Guoneng in history...

At this time, He Kegang said, "Your Honor, Liu Guoneng's name has been heard of when the last general was in Liaodong. It is said that he is very good at planning and fighting. He only had about 8000 people at the beginning, but he has expanded by one in two years. There are more than [-] people, it is strange that such a person suddenly comes down."

He Renlong also said, "Master Hou, the general has fought against Liu Guoneng twice. To put it bluntly, the general did not take advantage of it. Instead, he and Li Zicheng teamed up and beat him to shame... In short, this person is not the same. Simple, Master Hou needs to think twice!"

Meng Hu also said, "Master Hou, this old boy is coming to surrender now, and he probably has no good intentions. Isn't this the trick of 'feigning surrender' that storytellers often talk about?"

Wang Sihai heard that none of the generals at the scene believed it, and couldn't help smiling up to the sky, "Haha, I thought there were some great people in the army formation, but I didn't want to be a group of idiots who couldn't tell the difference between good and bad!"

Meng Hu was furious on the spot when he heard that, he jumped up and grabbed Wang Sihai's neck, and said in a concentrated voice, "Boy, you will easily lose your head when you talk like that."

Wang Sihai sneered disdainfully, and said, "If you want to kill, kill it. If you kill me, you can attack Weinan City. Without the help of my master, you don't want to attack tens of thousands of people unless you die."

Meng Hu was even angrier and was about to explode when Qin Shuhuai said, "Meng Hu, step back first."

Afterwards, he walked up to Wang Sihai, smiled slightly, and said, "Cutting Sky Monkey, you said that General Liu wants to surrender the city, but how do you offer the Dharma?"
