The day in winter is very short, and it starts to dark before the You hour in the evening. Clusters of torches were quickly lit on the city wall, illuminating the surroundings. In order to prevent the Jiangning army from attacking, the bandits even lit a bunch of bonfires hundreds of meters away from the city wall.

The city walls were heavily guarded, while all the surviving people in the city were huddled at home.

During the days when the bandits occupied Anqing City, they finally understood that the songs and songs were all lying, and the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the king of ​​the

Moreover, these "rebels" not only rob food, but also women, but they also stolen people and things, and they also told them that I am fighting the world for you poor people. What's wrong with eating you? You can think of you as a wife!

Faced with these extremely vicious bandits, the people of Anqing Prefecture dared not speak out. Compared to them, although the officials and yamen runners in the past also exploited them, at least they still have a bottom line. Although their lives are poor, they can still live.

Just when the people of Anqing Prefecture were extremely eager for the imperial army, Li Zicheng was discussing with his subordinates overnight how to escape from Anqing Prefecture.

"King of Chuang, I thought we should attack Ningguo Mansion in the next step." Li Laiheng pointed to the simple map on the table and said excitedly: "As long as you take down Ningguo Mansion, you will be Hangzhou Mansion to the east and Jinling to the south.

Whether it is Jinling or Hangzhou Prefecture, they are the richest places in the Ming Dynasty. We can eat as long as we capture any place, so I think the most urgent task now is to take down Ningguo Prefecture."

"Well... makes sense."

Some bandit generals couldn't help but reveal their eyes when they heard about Hangzhou and Jinling. Jinling was the capital of the Ming Dynasty and the essence of the south. As for Hangzhou, as the saying goes, there is paradise and Suzhou and Hangzhou. There is naturally no need to mention the wealth of Hangzhou Prefecture. As long as they can take any of them, it is enough to make them eat and eat.

"inappropriate!"

As soon as Li Laiheng finished speaking, Hao Yaoqi shook his head and said, "Brother Li, you only see the wealth of Hangzhou Prefecture and Jinling, but you don't see the risks. Where is Jinling? It is the capital of the Ming Dynasty. There are five or six thousand troops in Jinling alone. More importantly, it is the nest of the Jiangning Army. Are you really ready to attack Jinling?

Also, although Hangzhou Prefecture is rich, Qianshan Guards and Wu Ninggu near Hangzhou have more than 10,000 troops from the Qianshan Guards and Wu Ningguards. Have you ever thought about what consequences will be if they can't take over Hangzhou Prefecture for a while?"

After Hao Yaoqi finished speaking, some of the thieves who had originally had a full catalogue of thieves calmed down as if they had been poured with a basin of cold water.

Yes, Jinling is Yang Feng’s nest. Who knows how many Jiangning troops there are there? When attacking Jinling, isn’t it that the birthday boy hangs himself. Do you think he has a long life?

As for Hangzhou, it is not easy to fight. There are several garrisons alone. Even if the garrisons are now abandoned, it is still no problem to piece together ten thousand people to defend the city. Once they are entangled, the Jiangning army will rush towards them. It is still unknown whether they can escape by then.

Liu Zongmin spoke: "Old Hao, you are too worried. I admit that what you said makes sense, but then again, Jinling is indeed the nest of the Jiangning Army, but isn't it easy to fight in Hangzhou?

What's there in Hangzhou? Is it still unclear what kind of garrisons are today? Those garrisons may be good at farming, but if you want to fight a war, I'm afraid even if one of our brothers in our old camp can beat them ten of them.

Even if they can gather 10,000 people to defend the city, as long as we send our brothers into the city in advance, and when the fight starts, how long can Hangzhou City last? As long as we can take down Hangzhou, it is equivalent to occupying Jiangnan's confidant land. At that time, whether it is Shaoxing Prefecture, Songjiang Prefecture, Ningbo Fu or Suzhou Prefecture will be our own belongings. No matter how arrogant he is, he will not dare to risk the entire Jiangnan to destroy it, right?"

“Huh…”

Li Yan looked at Liu Zongmin in surprise. He didn't expect that this cruel and lustful guy had this brain. It was really beyond his expectations. He couldn't help asking.

"Brother Liu, I didn't expect you to come up with such a clever plan. This is really impressive."

Hearing Li Yan's praise, Liu Zongmin showed a look of pride on his face, "Military advisor, you underestimate me too much. Although I haven't studied many books in my hometown, I often heard from Mr. Shu talk about the Three Kingdoms in his hometown, and there is still a little ink in his belly."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone burst into laughter. Who wouldn't know that anyone who knew Liu Zongmin could count the big words this guy knew together with just a finger. Now he dared to boast about the ink in front of Li Yan, the juren. Isn't this a big knife in front of Guan Gong and a show of his article in front of Confucius?

Li Yan also laughed a little. He looked at Li Zicheng and said with a smile: "King of Chuang, what Liu Zhangbu said is reasonable. I think that's all. Let's leave a team of people to station in Anqing City to delay time, and the others will set off tonight."

Li Zicheng nodded: "Since the military advisor said that, then do it, but who would like to stay and station in Anqing City?"

Everyone looked at each other. They had seen the power of Jiangning Army today. What they left behind could almost be said to be a mortal ending. No one wanted to take on this chore. Didn't you see that even Liu Zongmin lowered his head and said nothing?

"Why, is no one willing to take on this important task?" Li Zicheng asked again.

No one said anything, and there was silence in the hall.

Li Zicheng was about to get angry when a voice suddenly sounded. If no one wanted, let me stay.

After saying that, the visitor slowly stood up. When everyone saw that it was a young man in his twenties, he looked quite handsome.

When Li Laiheng saw the visitor, he frowned and whispered: "Tian Jianxiu, why are you here to join in the fun?"

After saying that, Li Laiheng stood up and clasped his fists at Li Zicheng and said, "King of Chuang, this kid is a general under my command. Maybe he was confused for a moment."

He shouted in a deep voice: "Tian Jianxiu, King Chuang is not a joke at the moment. How can he talk nonsense? Why don't you retreat quickly?"

After saying that, he still glanced at Tian Jianxiu in a vague way and signaled him to leave quickly.

The young man, Tian Jianxiu, was not grateful and bowed: "King of Chuang, military advisor, I am not confused, let me stay, I am willing to cut off the rear for the sake of the rebel army."

Li Zicheng looked at the young man and said, "You are Tian Jianxiu. Do you know that this is not a joke. You must stay in Anqing Mansion for at least six days to buy time for the rebels, otherwise you will know what the consequences will be."

Tian Jianxiu shouted: "Don't worry, if you can't stop Jiangning's army from ten days, I'm willing to come to see you!"
