The night breeze was gentle, the stars were shining, and the soldiers still had to relax after months of hard fighting.

Under the moonlight, countless fires rose in the wilderness to ward off the chill of the April nights. Each of the soldiers' small flags sat around the fire, and pieces of horse meat were tumbling in the iron pot erected, exuding bursts of meat fragrance.

The more than 10,000 Ming soldiers trapped by Wang Yan in the distance smelled the fragrance, and their faces were full of envy, but the soldiers sitting by the fire did not have the slightest joy on their faces.

After the excitement of the day, an indisputable fact was in front of them, they were rejected by He Tengjiao from the city, and the food and grass in the army were about to run out.

The soldiers of the Ming army in the distance envied them eating horse meat and drinking broth, but they did not know the melancholy in their hearts, they fought for the country, and after returning victorious, they suffered unfair treatment, and the disappointment in their hearts was incomprehensible.

During the day, Wang Yan's actions raised the morale of the soldiers, but after the night, everyone calmed down and thought about the day's events, but there were only two words left in their hearts, and they were cold.

Wang Yan took a few guards to pass between the fires, and every time he passed a fire, the soldiers sitting around him got up and called "Guogong", and Wang Yan also waved his hand, signaling everyone to sit down, and then roast the fire and eat meat.

The army of 70,000 was spread all over the camp inside and outside, Wang Yan patrolled all the way, looking at the confused look on the faces of the soldiers, and his mood was not shocked.

At this time, Wang Yan no longer had the intention of continuing to inspect, but hurriedly walked back to the big tent, and as he walked, he said to Xie Kuang beside him: "Daowu, go and ask Dufutai to come to the big tent of this governor." ”

"Nuo~" Xie Kuang hugged his fists and saluted, then turned to leave.

Wang Yan returned to the tent, paced back and forth in it, and the army returned victorious, which was a great benefit, but now because of He Tengjiao's grabbing merit, the morale of the soldiers was low.

Wang Yan's soldiers finally showed their spirit and arrogance, but if Wang Yan didn't handle it properly this time, these precious things would immediately disappear.

"What did the prince call me?" When Wang Yan was depressed, Du Yinxi had been taken out of the tent by Xie Kuang.

Seeing this, Wang Yan hurriedly let them in, and then took the hand of Du Yinxi and asked him to sit down, before he spoke: "The army is running out of grain and grass, and the people I sent to the south to buy grain have no news back, and the grain and grass that were in Yuezhou before were placed in the city, He Tengjiao wants to threaten me with this, let me soften, and block Futai What do I think I should do?" ”

Plug Yinxi and He Tengjiao also don't deal with each other, whether in political advocacy or governance of the place, the two are at odds with each other, Plug Yinxi insists on Lianshun to resist the captives, and even intends to contact Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan, uniting all the Han forces to fight against the Qiang Qing, but He Tengjiao feels that the peasant army is a rogue, wild and untamable, untrustworthy and dependent.

At the local level, Du Yinxi thought that it was necessary to lightly punish the meager endowment and win the hearts of the people, but He Tengjiao was eager to form a new army and increase the field endowment to obtain salary.

Plug Yinxi is the governor of Hunan, and he and the governor He Tengjiao are at odds everywhere, but he, like Wang Yan, does not want to have an internal fight with He Tengjiao, so that the Qing soldiers who are looking at the side will reap the benefits.

In order to avoid a head-on conflict with He Tengjiao, he rarely stayed in Changsha, but has been presiding over government affairs in Changde Mansion.

This time the conflict between Wang Yan and He Tengjiao made him very angry, and he pondered for a moment before he replied: "This matter is wrong with Inspector He, but I hope that Guogong can endure it and must not do anything in the same room." ”

Plugging Yinxi's attitude was expected by Wang Yan, if Plugging Yinxi wanted to fight with He Tengjiao, he wouldn't have endured it until now, "Blocking Futai, even if I can endure this matter, but the army can't stay here to spend it~ He He Tengjiao didn't have a single soldier, so he wanted to rob me of the credit that tens of thousands of soldiers had earned desperately, and also took away my grain and grass in Yuezhou, is it too much of a deception? . ”

Wang Yan and He Tengjiao are facing each other under the city of Yuezhou, and there is no benefit to the Daming Dynasty, Du Yinxi's face sank at this time, and he couldn't help but stand up, and sighed slightly: "Alas~ If Guogong can trust me, I am willing to go to the city and talk about the conditions for Guogong." ”

"Blocking Futai and fighting side by side with this governor, how can this governor not be trusted." When Wang Yan heard this, he held his hand and said with a smile: "In this case, Yan will have to go to Futai." ”

Du Yinxi nodded, "Then I'll go and prepare, it's just Guogong's request, but you need to inform me first, so I can discuss with He Tengjiao." ”

"Blocking Futai can tell He Tengjiao that the credit for regaining Yuezhou can be given to him, but in the first battle of Yuezhou, more than 20,000 young men died in the battle, and he must be compensated, and Yuezhou must be exempted for three years." Wang Yan paid attention to the change in Du Yinxi's expression as he spoke, and when he saw him nodding, he continued: "In addition, He Tengjiao must return the grain and grass in Yuezhou City to me, and the land of Jingzhou, as well as the Hubei Prefecture County conquered by the Governor in the future, will be temporarily managed by the Governor, and let him take another million taels of silver as the opening fee of the Governor's army." ”

After Wang Yan finished speaking, Du Yinxi's face showed embarrassment, but he didn't say anything, but nodded slightly, and left.

After he left the big tent, Xie Kuang couldn't help asking: "Guogong's conditions, will He Tengjiao agree?" ”

Wang Yan returned to his seat and sneered, "He Tengjiao, those who forget their righteousness when they see profit!" When he saw that he had entered the city, he only thought that the governor had relented, so he naturally would not agree to such conditions. With his nature, regaining the credit of Yuezhou would not satisfy him, and he would inevitably make more demands. ”

When Xie Kuang heard this, his face couldn't help but be puzzled, "In this way, if you go to Futai, isn't it doomed to fail, so why does the Duke of Guo let him enter the city?" ”

Wang Yan heard this, and was silent for a moment before explaining: "Although this governor is a prince of the imperial court, his actual position is the governor of Guangdong, and he does not have the right to control Huguang. Dufutai is the governor of Hunan, and if he presides over the affairs of Hunan, it will be completely different. Ben Du let him enter the city, just to let him see He Tengjiao's face clearly, so that the two of them broke up completely. ”

Xie Kuang's face did not change when he heard this, but he immediately recovered.

At this time, the guard suddenly led a person to the tent to ask for a meeting, Wang Yan let him enter the tent, and the man came in and immediately bowed on one knee and said: "The lowly Yan Dai visited the Duke of Chu, this is the letter that my lord asked the lowly to risk death to bring to the Duke of Guo." ”

Seeing this, Xie Kuang hurriedly took the letter that Yan Dai held above his head, and then handed it to Wang Yan.

Wang Yan first waved his hand to let Yan Dai stand up, and then opened the letter to read it, his eyes couldn't help but sparkle with cold light, and his face immediately became gloomy.
