Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 479
As Wang Yan's main adviser, Chen Bangyan must have had some intentions when he said that. Seeing this, Wang Yan waved his hand and said, "Take him down and summon him later." Li Yuanyin had to salute, and then was led out of the tent by the soldiers.

As soon as he left, Wang Yan guessed Chen Bangyan's intentions, and asked, "Mister, do you want to use the plan?"

"Li Chengdong's belongings are indeed quite a lot. When he slaughtered Jiading three times, it is said that there were more than 200 carts of money stolen. But these belongings, as the cabinet said, I will take them back, and I don't need him to send them." Chen Bangyan said: "The meaning of my subordinates is not to agree first, cheat out of the city, and then encircle and annihilate them halfway. From the perspective of my subordinates, this strategy will not work. First of all, because of Li Chengdong's cunning, even if the cabinet agrees, he will definitely ask. Our army Withdraw the siege of Zhangzhou first, and once the siege is withdrawn, if he does not leave, there will definitely be a lot of debate about how to go, and there will inevitably be changes, so it is better to siege to save trouble. Moreover, the cabinet is the Minister of the Ming Dynasty. If you don’t believe what you say, how will you command the world in the future. If you encounter a strong city again, how can you win the trust of others? Even if the strategy is successful, it will be useless in the future.”

After Chen Bangyan finished speaking, Wang Yan thought for a while, and Zheng Chenggong nodded, obviously agreeing with his statement, "My subordinates think that Mr. Chen's words are very good. I am different from the Manchu Qing. I am dressed in a hat, I am polite, benevolent, wise and trustworthy. If If you agreed to the conditions and then backtracked, the Manchu Qing will definitely spread the word in the future, and the cabinet will not believe what you say. When they attack the fortified city in the future, the Qing soldiers will have no other choice but to defend. Li Chengdong is a small man, There is no need to exchange faith."

Wang Yan understood, and felt that it was not worthwhile to use his own reputation to deceive a certain Li Chengdong, so he asked, "What do you mean, sir?"

Chen Bangyan analyzed: "Yesterday evening, there was a mutiny in the city of Zhangzhou. Li Chengdong sent Li Yuanyin out tonight. From this, it is not difficult to see that Zhangzhou can no longer defend for a long time. Today, the Lanjia Eight Banners beheaded more than 200 people in the city, and the corpses were thrown off the city wall. The general sent people to pick up a few heads from the city, and it was determined that they were soldiers of Zheng Jun. From this point of view, the mutiny in the city last night should have been initiated by the soldiers of Zheng Jun, and most of them were thinking of Han. Rather, if there was a sudden rebellion and our army seized the opportunity to seize the city, it should be able to break through the city, but the rebellion in the city was quickly suppressed, which only shows that the anti-Qing forces were not strong, and they were not well organized. He didn't contact us, so he couldn't compete with Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong. His subordinates thought that if they wanted to break the city, it would be better to take advantage of Li Chengdong's sending Li Yuanyin to negotiate, take the opportunity to sell Li Chengdong, and force him to fight with Tong Yangjia. We contacted Zheng Jun on the side The old Ministry is an internal response, taking the opportunity to attack the city. If Li Chengdong kills Tong Yangjia and honestly dedicates the city, according to the previous conditions of the Cabinet Ministry, let him go to Fuzhou to mine mines. If he is killed by Tong Yangjia, there will be no loss to us."

"The final general agrees." Li Guo was the first to express his support.

Li Chengdong is just a general under Gao Jie, and Gao Jie is Li Chuang's rebel general. Li Guo's status in the Dashun army is much higher than Gao Jie. It's a general town, Li Chengdong was besieged to death, he didn't make any achievements, he killed so many Ming soldiers, and he still wanted to be the general soldier, how could Li Guo and others make him happy. "The general is willing to do the matter of contacting Zheng Jun's old department." Hong Xishan clasped his fists as he came out of the line. "If Li Chengdong and Tong Yangjia fight, and the Zheng army in the city breaks out again, we will take the opportunity to rush to attack the city and take Zhangzhou down. There should be no problem. Secondary position." Zheng Chenggong nodded.

Seeing that everyone agrees, Wang Yan said, "Since this is the case, how to implement the master's plan?"

"The Ministry of the Pavilion can keep Li Yuanyin in the camp, and then send letters to the city. They will not agree to Li Chengdong's conditions, but only invite him to join the army, and hint that Li Yuanyin will not return to the city for the time being. When Tong Yangjia reads the letter, he will definitely have doubts in his heart. As long as he asks someone to check that Li Yuanyin is indeed not in the city, the two of them will definitely turn their heads."

Wang Yansu said: "Okay, let's do what you want, General Hong will also contact the old department in the city as soon as possible."

That night, Hong Xishan quietly came to the city. He had previously defended Zhangzhou, so he knew the defense situation of Zhangzhou City and which section of the city wall was defended by Zheng Jun.

At the time of the fourth watch, he deliberately let the sentry in the city find out that it was indeed Zheng Jun's former army.

Hong Xishan was not afraid of deception, even Li Chengdong was eager to surrender. As long as Zheng Jun in the city was not stupid, he had to leave a way out for himself at this time.

The general manager hurriedly asked him to change into the clothes of a pawn, and asked someone to take him down the city in a hurry.

In the early morning, Tong Yangjia woke up from the nightmare again. He got up, washed his face, ate some breakfast, and was ready to go to the city to patrol, but the guards had just moved in the horses, and the two blue-armed cows rushed over in a panic.

At this time, Tong Yangjia could rely on, and what he really believed in was the one thousand blue armor under him, and he was not at ease even about the five thousand green battalion soldiers under his control.

At this time, when he just went out, he saw two Niu Lu, so he said coldly: "You are not on duty in the city, what are you doing here at Ben Fu's mansion?"

Liang Niulu stepped forward, and one of them hurriedly saluted and explained: "Lord Futai, this is a letter from the Ming army that I found when I was looking for the city. I felt that the situation was serious, so I hurriedly sent it to Lord Futai."

"Wang Yan is really endless. This letter has been shot wave after wave. He really thinks that a few letters can shake me in Zhangzhou?" Tong Yangjia took the letter and read it disapprovingly. He didn't read a few lines, but his expression immediately changed. Change.

"Is what the letter said true?" Tong Yangjia's face was full of frost.

Yi Niu Lu replied: "Since the Ming army outside the city released Li Yuanyin, he has not been seen. Admiral Li said he was under house arrest, but we don't know if it is true."

"This matter is of great importance, and it is very likely that it is a plan to alienate the Ming army. Don't act rashly. Now go back to the city to see if there are any letters. Collect them all and don't leak any news."

When the two Niu Lu left, Tong Yangjia did not go to patrol the city, but returned to the mansion, asked someone to exchange for the commander of the personal guard, and ordered: "I have something important to do, and I need you to find out whether Li Yuanyin is still there or not." In Li Chengdong's residence, before noon, I want to get the exact news, understand?"

"Don't worry Futai, the servant understands, let's do it now!"

Li Chengdong's mansion, Li Yuanyin did not come back last night, which made him a little uneasy, and he didn't even have an appetite for breakfast, so he just picked up a few chopsticks and went back to his room to rest.

As soon as he lay down, someone came outside to report: "Duzhen, General Dong has something urgent to see."

There is only one general named Dong under Li Chengdong's command. His name is Dong Fangce. He is an old man under him. He has followed him for many years and is as close as a family member.

After hearing this, Li Chengdong had no choice but to get up, and ordered his soldiers to ask Dong Fangce to wait in the living room, and he also came later.

As soon as he stepped through the threshold, Dong Fangce greeted him and saluted, and asked impatiently, "The town governor is going to do anything anyway, why don't you tell the old brothers?"
