Twenty-one thieves were separated from the crowd and tied up, and by this time they already sensed that something was wrong, and when they saw the young man's indifferent eyes, they began to panic and realize that something was about to happen.

"Didn't you say that if you surrendered, you wouldn't be killed?" Someone was crying and struggling.

"First, I haven't said this to you, and second, in my eyes, the thief will be killed!"

When the twenty heads landed, Chang Yu had already walked out of the county office and went straight to the camp of his subordinates at the south gate.

Three hundred of his subordinates participated in the battle, helping the thief army killed by Zhou Yuji to fall into the water and win easily, but they charged into battle, all fighting with their lives, how could there be no casualties.

There are injuries, but they are really not dead, this is mainly because when Duan Wuhu led the team to arrive, Zhou Yuji's men and horses had already faced it head-on, and it was a crushing trend, to put it bluntly, Chang Yu's men and horses only cheered and shouted, and picked up a big bargain behind them, and did not participate in the fierce fighting, more to accumulate experience.

"More than 40 people were injured, none of them were seriously injured, and none of them died," Duan Wuhu reported.

Chang Yu can still accept this number, comfort those wounded soldiers one by one, check their injuries, and at the same time promise a heavy reward, so that the morale does not drop at all, but on the contrary, it is even higher.

After tossing and turning, Chang Yu was ready to go up to the city to take a look, he felt that there would be a frontal encounter this afternoon, and there must be a vanguard on the thief army's side to find a field.

As soon as I arrived in the city, I saw Zhou Yuji coming.

"Done?" Chang Yu asked

Zhou Yuji nodded and smiled slightly: "Master Cai is good at that, and now he is colluding with Xiong Tong and them to collude with those captured soldiers, so that the drama can be more realistic."

Chang Yu nodded slightly, and said: "Your subordinates must be tight, and don't leak secrets, otherwise it will backfire, and we will lose our faces."

Zhou Yuji laughed, and then straightened out: "Don't worry, this matter is only known to my subordinates, and it has been advised, and the rest of the people don't know what happened today."

"This is the best" Chang Yu said Tong Zhou Yuji and walked towards the city: "If my estimate is good, there will be a battle in the afternoon."

"But the last general thinks it's unlikely" Zhou Yuji shook his head lightly: "I'm afraid that tomorrow's thief army will be overwhelmed by the army in the morning."

"But we have prepared a bucket of ice water, so the blind Li won't come early in the morning!" The two looked at each other and laughed.

The two talked and laughed in the city, although they knew that the storm was coming, but their expressions were as light as a breeze, which was an aura and a kind of pride.

Halfway through the afternoon, there was no movement in the south of the city, and the scouts who had been scattered out ran back and forth, but the information sent was not what he expected: there was no trace of the enemy, only the thieves began to move again.

"It seems that we can't fight today," Zhou Yuji said as he looked at Chang Yu with a solemn face.

Chang Yu nodded slightly, it seems that Li Zicheng is much smaller than he imagined, and this thing did not find the field immediately, which means that he has been angry and decided to mobilize troops and horses to play big.

The fire is on, and it's time for the fire extinguisher.

"The Zhou thief is extremely hateful!"

Throughout the afternoon, Li Zicheng gritted his teeth and said the most he said was this.

Although he had been mentally prepared for Zhou Yuji's so-called defection as a delaying strategy, he was still very much looking forward to it in his heart, so much so that he sent his henchman Niu Jinxing to negotiate in person, which shows the importance he attaches to Zhou Yuji.

In fact, Li Zicheng was born in Caokou, no matter how big an official he is and how big a hat he wears, but the grass head king is the grass head king, and he is a piece of if he cannot be recognized by orthodoxy, so I am particularly eager to be recognized by orthodoxy, or win over people on the orthodox road.

Chen Yongfu is the deputy chief soldier of Kaifeng, and Li Zicheng was blinded by him when he opened the seal, but in order to recruit Chen Yongfu, he ignored his previous suspicions, and even named him Wen Shuibo, which can be seen.

Zhou Yuji's qualifications and fame are higher than Chen Yongfu, if he can be recruited, it will definitely be a fatal blow to the Ming court's military heart, and more Ming generals will be attracted to surrender in the future, so Li Zicheng's expectations for this surrender are unprecedentedly high.

But！

Not to mention the design of ambushing Xiong Tong and Chen Shangzhi, he almost captured the prime minister's old cow alive, if it wasn't for the old cow's cleverness, the consequences would be unbearable

What's more serious is that he feels that his feelings have been deceived, you can insult me and kill me, but how can you deceive feelings.

So the anger of the blind man Li was countless times greater than Chang Yu expected, if you deceive my feelings, then I will kill you, so he forcibly held down a few irascible subordinates who wanted to find a field immediately, and ordered to immediately rectify military affairs, rest for a long time, Ming'er immediately sent troops in the morning, broke the defense line of Jiaocheng in one fell swoop, and attacked Taiyuan City, he wanted to humiliate Zhou Yuji fiercely.

However, just when Li Zicheng convened his subordinates to discuss how to attack tomorrow in the hall, a personal soldier suddenly reported: "The Ming army sent a letter saying that they wanted to discuss the matter of surrendering to Cheng."

Exercise! The hall was suddenly irritable, and a group of grass-headed kings scolded Zhou Yuji for being shameless, and the same should be the second time, when everyone here is a stupid dog.

Li Zicheng laughed angrily and ordered someone to cut it down.

Niu Jinxing, who had finally escaped back after nine deaths, got up and stopped: "Lord, let's take a look and talk about it, so I can see how brazen the Zhou thief is!" ”

Li Zicheng was fascinated by the one-eyed dragon staring at Niu Jinxing and looking at it, staring at this thing a little restlessly.

"That's it! Let's see." Li Zicheng naturally knew the meaning of Niu Jinxing's blocking, his son was captured and fell into the hands of the official army, his heart was like a fire, and he couldn't guarantee that there was news of the eldest son in the letter from the Ming army.

Soon a letter was sent to the front of the hall, Niu Jinxing hurried to pick it up, although there were many generals in the thief army, there were few literate ones, and this kind of correspondence was already in charge of Niu Jinxing and a few other staff.

However, when he saw a few big words on the envelope, his expression changed abruptly, and he was stunned, feeling like he had seen a ghost!

"This, this is not a letter from the thief Zhou"

Damn, I knew that this dog thief was playing tricks again, and the hall suddenly became noisy again, and Li Zicheng's face and muscles kept shaking, which showed that his heart was also on fire.

"This turned out to be Cai Gongyu's handwritten letter!" Niu Jinxing shouted, the uproar in the hall was gone, and all the grass heads looked confused and frowned, who is Cai Gongyu?

"Cai Gongyu" Li Yan, Gu Junen and Song Xiance couldn't sit still, and they all got up and exclaimed!

The reaction of these people immediately made everyone feel that things were not simple, even Li Zicheng was also shocked, and slowly stood up, his hands trembling a little and looking at Niu Jinxing: "Prime Minister, this, this, this Cai Gongyu is ......"

"Yes" Niu Jinxing was also a little excited: "It is the imperial history of the right capital of the Ming court, Cai Maode, the governor of Shanxi!" ”

Syllable! It's unbelievable!

Li Zicheng suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and he pulled the letter from Niu Jinxing's hand and opened it at a glance and looked at it, he used to be a post guard who delivered official documents to the imperial court, and he was literate.

At a glance and ten lines, Li Zicheng suddenly laughed, stretched out his hands, and the letter fell: "Cai Maode actually wants to surrender to me."

Everyone was surprised, happy and suspicious, Li Yan was quick, stretched out his hand to catch the letter, and Niu Jinxing and others immediately surrounded him.

Cai Maode actually wrote a handwritten letter to Li Zicheng, saying that he was willing to surrender to Taiyuan City, and the King of Jin was safe, and the words revealed that he was actually setting up a line for the King of Jin. He also said that he had persuaded Zhou Yuji, apologized for the previous incident, and sent back the son of Niu Venus in order to express his sincere wishes......

Nearly 1,000 words are sprinkled, and every word is sincere.

"Cai Maode is famous all over the world, he is the head of the literati in Shanxi, he is known to have a backbone, this time he actually wrote to the sincerity, doesn't my father think it is suspicious?" Everyone in the hall didn't believe it, and Li Guo was the first to question it.

"Very suspicious! But even if he is pretending to be honest and really procrastinating, he is willing to wait for his father, and he is willing to be him once" Li Zicheng's expression was solemn, and he was still excited.

Liu Zongmin, Li Guo and others were puzzled, but Niu Jinxing, Li Yan, Song Xiance and other staff members nodded in deep agreement.
