Chapter 13 The Flapping Little Wings
There is also such a thing as "crossing the sea and attacking the heart", the second brother Gao has no impression in his mind, which means that this matter must not be successful.

This strategy may be based on the experience of Jiangdong Town in order to reverse the unfavorable situation. After the defeat of Songshan, the Ming Dynasty lost nearly [-] elite soldiers.

If the Ming Dynasty could keep the pass wall, and then put such a man in Denglai, Shandong, it would indeed play a role in containment, at least the Qing army would not dare to go all out to invade Guanzhong.

As for why it didn't work, whether it was because of lack of money, or because of other reasons, the second brother Gao didn't know.

However, the Qing army will enter the customs for the sixth time this year, but Second Brother Gao remembers it very clearly, and the Qing army did come to Shandong, and even broke through more than [-] cities in a row, and went south to Haizhou.

Presumably the failure of the plan had something to do with the invasion of the Qing army.

Thinking of this, Gao Yihuan suddenly had an idea in his heart, since he knew that the Qing army was going to invade, could he find a way to inform the Ming Dynasty.

Right now, logically speaking, he is a member of the Chuang army, and the Qing army's invasion of Beizhi and Shandong will undoubtedly be able to contain the official army, which is conducive to the decisive battle between the Chuang army and the official army in Henan, forming a two-on-one situation.

However, Second Brother Gao didn't want to see this kind of situation happen. He thought that the Qing army would enter the customs again this year and harm Beizhi and Shandong, and his heart felt heavy.

People's ability to endure is limited, so there is a saying that chaos will be cured after a long time.

Now the north has been in chaos for many years, the rogues and the Qing army took turns to scourge, the people's patience has reached a limit, and they all yearn for the stability of the world.

The north suffered successive catastrophes, and the loss of manpower and material resources was huge. Later, after the Qing soldiers entered the pass, they failed to form a large-scale anti-Qing activity like during the Song Dynasty to restrain the Qing army from going south. A very important reason was that the northerners were really It is unbearable, they yearn for stability.

If the Qing army enters the customs as in history, but the north still retains a considerable part of its vitality, forming a situation like the Eight-Character Army in the Song Dynasty, Hebei, and Shandong Yiqi, which will undoubtedly delay the Qing army's southward movement.

Gao Yihuan was silent for a while, and decided to inform, but he had no connections. As for whether the news could reach the Beijing court, it was up to fate.

From the standpoint of Chuangjun, he seems to be a kind of betrayal, but whether Li Zicheng can succeed is still unknown, and he has never thought about who he will be loyal to. As long as he has an army in his hand, he will be with Li Zicheng or the Ming Dynasty. , why not let him choose?Isn't that guy Gao Jie doing well?
Thinking of this, Gao Yihuan called the man on the side and ordered: "Bandage him up, don't let him die."

After Gao Yihuan finished speaking, he left the house and went outside the yard. Seeing that Gao Yizheng and the others had dug a pit and were carrying the four Tartars into the pit, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't bury it yet, Yijiao, come here."

"Second brother, what's the matter?" Gao Yizhen clapped his hands and said excitedly as he walked over, "Second brother, these Tartars have brought a lot of things. More than 300 taels, and some salt and dried meat."

Gao Yihuan was about to talk about something, but when he heard Yinzi, an uncontrollable joy rose in his heart, "Where is it, show me."

The two walked quickly to the two mules. There were four piles of things on the ground, one of which was full of silver, estimated to be around three hundred taels, and the other was two bags of grain and one bag of salt.

Both silver and salt are good things, Gao Yihuan smiled, and said in his heart, "It's gone, haha, it's really gone!"

Although Gao Yizhen had read it before, he still couldn't hide his excitement at this moment. He knelt down and touched the money, "Second brother, how do we divide up so much money!"

"Divide? Divide your head!" Gao Yihuan was smiling, his face changed after hearing what he said, and he came to his senses, "All these silvers will be exchanged for food, and some of them will be given to the young and old in the camp, and the rest will be recruited." People come over and make up our shortfall first. We have more people, and we will have more money delivered to our door in the future, so that we can get more military funds from camping, otherwise we can only see the faces of Liu Heizi and Wang Jiaping."

Hearing that there was no distinction, Gao Yizhen was disappointed for a while, but he accepted the second brother's argument that he wanted to send food to the separated elders and children.

The Chuang army implemented a strategy of dividing battalions, and the family members were separated from the soldiers so as not to affect the soldiers' operations. This was very similar to the Taiping Army, but it was not as strict as the division of men and women in the Taiping Army.

Gao Yihuan had come to his senses after finishing talking, and remembered the business, he pulled Gao Yizhen aside, afraid of being heard by Fan Dongling inside, "Let me tell you something, it's a bit dangerous, but it might be a fortune, don't you dare?" to do?"

When Gao Yizhen heard that there was danger, he couldn't help but shudder, but he still said: "I said it just now, and what the second brother said is what it is." He gritted his teeth, "If there is anything, the second brother will do it."

Gao Yihuan nodded in satisfaction, "I'll have the heads of the four tartars cut off later, you take a mule, pickle the heads of the four tartars with salt, and take them to the nearby Daming Mansion in the north .”

"Daming Mansion?" Gao Yizhen was startled, "That's where the government and army are, will they kill me!"

He has now accepted his identity as a rogue, and when he heard that he was going to see an official, he felt a little timid in his heart.

"If you don't say you are a thief, who would know? They saw that you had four heads of Tartars, and they were too happy. Even if you were a local thief, they would still have to offer you up!" Gao Yihuan comforted him, seeing him calm down. , So he went on to say: "When you arrive at Daming Mansion, someone will interrogate you, and you will say that these Tatars are investigating the situation in Hebei and Shandong. This year we may have to enter the customs again, please be prepared for the imperial court."

"Second brother, we are thieves, why are we helping the officers and soldiers!" Gao Yizhen was a little puzzled after hearing this.

"Although we are thieves, we are also Han Chinese." Gao Yihuan said solemnly: "You remember, the Tartars are the enemy of the court and our enemy. I have a reason for doing so."

Gao Yihuan saw that he seemed to understand, but Gao Yihuan did not intend to explain more, because this matter would not be clear in a while, and he should ask what Han people are later.

After Gao Yihuan finished speaking, he immediately added: "After you're done, don't be too polite if you have a silver reward. It's not too late to come back after you get it."

"Second brother, don't worry, I understand!" Seeing this, Gao Yizhen could only nod his head.

At that moment, Gao Yihuan asked someone to cut off the head, treated it with salt, and asked Gao Yizhen to bring enough dry food to set off, and then everyone quickly buried the body, and set up a monument for Gao Zuyi and others, and briefly worshiped , then packed up his things and prepared to leave.

However, he did not return to the south immediately, and still had to send someone to Fengqiu. Gold and silver in Kaifeng are the same as stones, there is no difference. Fengqiu went back for some food.

Of course, exchanging too much will definitely not work, it will attract the attention of the government. Fan Dongling happened to have salt guides and Shanxi government guides in his luggage. He is going to send three people to accompany him as salt merchants to exchange a few bags of grain. There should be no problem.

At that moment, he asked Gao Xinghao to bring some salt, and gave 15 taels of silver to go north, while he escorted Fan Dongling to wait for them outside the city.

As for Fan Dongling, Gao Yihuan had planned to kill him early in the morning, and now he was kept, not because he wanted to blackmail Fan Yongdou, but because he wanted to hand him over to Chuangjun.

He reminded the Ming army, so he was also going to remind the Chuang army by the way, to let them realize that there is such a powerful enemy outside the pass, and they have already begun to spy on the Central Plains, so that the senior officials of the Chuang army should also be prepared, at least to know that there is such an enemy.
