East Factory Governor

Chapter 530 Li Zicheng's Plan
He Kegang was puzzled, he didn't believe that nearly [-] people could hide in the city so well without showing a trace.

He called Meng Wei, Zhang Xiao and others to discuss, and Meng Wei immediately gave him an answer.

"General He, the chief rudders of many Jianghu gangs have secret passages. Based on this reasoning, do you think Li Zicheng has been running Ankang City for so long, has he also dug secret passages in the city?"

He Kegang thought for a while, and said uncertainly, "This possibility is not impossible, but I have already deployed a large number of open posts and secret posts near Ankang City last night. If Li Zicheng led people to escape through the secret passage, logically, they should be killed by our horses." It was discovered by the post. After all, that was 4 to [-] people."

Zhang Xiao said, "General He, it may not be the case at the end of the day. There are many mountains near Ankang City. Li Zicheng may have set the exit of the secret passage in a valley somewhere. In addition, it is night, so maybe the spies didn't find it."

He Kegang pondered for a while, feeling that what Zhang Xiao said was not unreasonable.He also thought of the ubiquitous White Lotus Sect, so he quickly invited Anda Shan over and asked him if he knew if there was a secret passage leading to the outside in the city.

Andashan immediately said that he had never heard of it, and then he called several heads of the Ankang sub-rudder and asked them if they knew about it, and they unanimously answered that they did not know.If the members of the White Lotus sect down there knew about this, they would definitely report it.

Things suddenly reached an impasse.

Everyone frowned. If they really couldn't find the 8000 people from Li Zicheng's department, they wouldn't be able to sleep at night.Thinking about the [-] to [-] troops who might be squatting on the side of the couch, their backs are cold.

At this time, Zhang Xiao said again, "Li Zicheng has so many troops, the general thinks that they must not be in the city, otherwise, where can so many people hide? There is no government office in the city, no one in the camp, so the only way is to hide in the city." People’s homes. It’s impossible for so many soldiers to forcibly confiscate civilian houses without being discovered. Therefore, we only need to think about where the entrance of this secret passage is, so that we can keep it the most secret.”

He Kegang nodded, "General Zhang is right. If this is the case, then this secret passage should be in the government office in the city, so digging it out can deceive people."

Meng Wei added, "When digging, even the people from the White Lotus Sect who were among the rogues didn't know it. It must happen that this government office is not guarded by the soldiers of the White Lotus Sect. Just ask which government offices the White Lotus Sect's internal leaders usually work in. , we can narrow it down.”

When Meng Wei said this, An Dashan immediately said, "My brother has clerks in most government offices in the city, but the people in the general's mansion are all direct descendants brought by Li Zicheng from Yulin, so my brother can't get in." .”

Another leader of the White Lotus Sect heard this, and hurriedly slapped his thigh and said, "I really remember it now. For a period of time, every night in the general's mansion, carts and carts of things would be rolled out, and the tops were covered with thick cloth. Seriously, because it came out of the general’s mansion, no one dared to ask what it was, but now that I think about it, it’s probably the dirt that was dug out of a secret tunnel.”

"That's right!" He Kegang said immediately, "Then let's go to the General's Mansion to plow it!"

Soon, a large number of officers and soldiers rushed to the General's Mansion, and began to search for the entrance of the secret passage inch by inch.For a while, the General's Mansion was full of people and the torches were brightly lit, just like a large construction site, very lively.

An hour later, I found an extremely hidden entrance!This entrance is in the back garden of the General's Mansion, under the cover of a rockery, there is an entrance under the rockery!
He Kegang immediately sent people down to investigate.After half an hour, those people came back and reported that this secret passage led to a hidden valley five miles away. They saw countless messy footsteps in the valley, and speculated that Li Zicheng escaped through this valley. out of town!
Everyone's heart tightened.

And He Kegang regretted it even more!If he had known that Li Zicheng still had such skills, he might as well have started a street fight with him last night!Now that he runs away like this, things will be bad!
120 miles to the north of Ankang City, in Jing'an County, a large group of people is marching at high speed.

Like the soldiers under his command, Li Zicheng marched quickly with only one pair of legs.Because the secret tunnel was too small for a war horse to pass through, he didn't have a horse to ride.

But at this time, his dark face was full of conceited expressions.

Jin Chan escaped his shell, he really made a good move!
Originally, he planned to start a street fight with He Kegang in the city, but after learning that He Kegang had camped in Xi'an, he knew that the other party would not attack for the time being.

Therefore, he acted decisively and secretly transferred batch after batch of soldiers into the general's mansion, and then left the city from the general's mansion.Because there were spies in the city, he sent direct troops to guard the General's Mansion closely. All personnel were only allowed to enter but not to leave. Moreover, the soldiers transferred to the General's Mansion did not know in advance that they would leave the city, so the secrecy work was done very well.

So, all his soldiers withdrew from Ankang City that night.

Nearly [-] troops just evaporated from the world, and their goal was Weinan City!
Weinan City is now besieged by [-] officers and troops, and the two sides are in a stalemate. If he can rush to Weinan without anyone noticing, and stab He Renlong in the back while he is attacking the city, it will not only be the siege of Weinan. It can be understood that these [-] officers and soldiers are bound to suffer heavy losses!

Hmph, He Kegang, the famous general of Guan Ning?I, Li Zicheng, will not lose to you!Ankang City is here for you, but in this battle, it is not certain who will win and who will lose!

In Ankang City.

After He Kegang learned that Li Zicheng had abandoned the city and fled, the first thing he thought of was that he would go to relieve the siege of Weinan, so he sighed in his heart that it was not good.

But he had been gone for almost a day and a night, and even if he sent troops to chase him, he would never be able to catch up.At this moment, we can only send a horse sentry to Weinan to inform He Renlong and the others, hoping to arrive in Weinan before Li Zicheng, otherwise the army in Weinan will be in danger!
In the night, more than [-] cavalry soldiers left Ankang City at high speed and rushed towards Weinan.When they arrived six or seven miles north of the city, they were going to go to Weinan in three routes—this was a common practice, because if there was only one route, they could easily be caught in one go.

Just when they were about to say goodbye, they saw more than a dozen fast horses attacking them at high speed.

These more than twenty horsemen were all veterans who had experienced many battles. They immediately smelled a strange smell and drew out their sabers one after another. One of them shouted, "Who is it?"

The people who came didn't answer. After approaching them quickly, they all jumped up from their horses and charged at them.

The more than [-] cavalry soldiers of the official army were not weak, and immediately drew their swords to fight.But he didn't expect that the martial arts of the incoming people were extremely high, the two sides only fought each other for a while, all these horse soldiers were killed, and none of them survived.

"Six apostles, are they the whistlers of the Ming army that Li Zicheng mentioned?"

"Is it important? As long as it is the Ming army, it should be killed! Dispose of these corpses and continue to ambush. We will kill as many as the Ming army comes!"

"As ordered!"
