"I don't mean that. Our brothers have lived and died together for more than 20 years. Don't you know who I am? What kind of slutty do you have?" Hao Yaoqi said as he pulled Tianbao into his tent.

After sitting down, Hao Yaoqi ordered his personal soldiers to serve tea, and then said to Ta Tianbao: "Old Ta, the Qing army in Neixiang is not worth worrying. We don't have to take Neixiang. If Miao Chenglong is not dealt with, what's the use of another Neixiang? But it's been four days now, Miao Chenglong refuses to come out of Nanyang. I'm also making the worst plan."

Ta Tianbao raised his eyebrows: "What are the plans?"

Hao Yaoqi didn't hide it from him, and said the truth: "If you can't lure Miao Chenglong out, you can only withdraw your troops."

Ta Tianbao was stunned for a moment and hesitated: "When we retreat, what should Xiao Laohu and Liu Tichun, Lao Pang and the others do? Old thief Jia is not easy to meet."

The old thief in Ta Tianbao's mouth is naturally the former deputy general of Huai'an in the Ming Dynasty, and now the governor of Henan in the Qing Dynasty, Jia Hanfu had fought with the Chuangjun under the curtain of Sun Chuanting, which caused the Chuangjun to suffer a considerable loss. This time, Zhongzhen Camp was in Henan. If Jia Hanfu had not been in trouble and had the proper command, most of Henan would have fallen into the hands of Zhongzhen Camp.

"No matter how powerful the old thief Jia is, he is better than Sun Chuanting?" Ta Tianbao valued Jia Hanfu, but Hao Yaoqi disagreed. "Little Tiger and others have more soldiers than us, and they have more grain than us. They are also very quarrel in Runing. Although Jia Lao Thief Jia is cunning, how many soldiers can he have in Henan? Little Tiger and others can deal with it."

"That's right, the Manchu Tartars were so hard to fight in Yangzhou. Old Thief Jia couldn't count on the Manchu Tartars. I, Laota, didn't take the green flag soldiers under his command. But the Qing soldiers' way of forming camps made us unable to do anything. This time, you said that you would surround the point and attack the support, but the point did not come. We were delayed by Bai Ze'an Township. If this really doesn't work, just retreat like this. Miao Chenglong's dog thief must have stabbed Xiaohu and the others from the side."

What Ta Tianbao said may not have happened. Once Hao Yaoqi and him retreated from Nanyang, Li Laiheng, Yuan Tichun, Dang Shousu and others in Runing will become lonely. If they are not done well, they may suffer a big loss.

"Then tell me what to do, our food can't last for a few days."

"Even if Miao Chenglong dares not come, we can't just leave like this. We have to take down Neixiang, so that Miao Chenglong dares not act rashly." Ta Tianbao paused and added, "Although there are not many Qing troops in the city, there is always a batch of food. Let's wait for two more days. If Miao Chenglong really doesn't come, then you and my family will work together to take down Neixiang and take a look first."

"It's true! If you really want to retreat like this, the little tiger may not say anything about me, my uncle. Liu Tichun and the old party will definitely scold us. Just do that!"

Hao Yaoqi nodded and made up his mind. He was not afraid of being scolded by Xiao Laohu and the others, but if Runing really had any disastrous consequences due to his retreat, he might not have spared him. Yuan Zongdi is now the governor of Hubei. If he offended him, he would offend money and grain. Hao Yaoqi still wanted to go back and ask Yuan Zongdi for food, so he naturally had to consider the consequences of Runing's withdrawal.

The Qing army in Neixiang City has been frightened by the besieged Zhongzhen Camp these days. Some officers think that Neixiang cannot be defended. If the deputy general Su Yangyuan insisted on defending the enemy, they would have escaped long ago.

If you defend the enemy, you can survive if you have reinforcements, and if you don’t have reinforcements, you will die.

On the first day of being surrounded, the Qing army in the city began to look towards Nanyang Prefecture, hoping for the arrival of reinforcements. However, the result was repeated disappointment.

The city gate was opened again. This was the sixth group of people who had been sent out in the city since they were surrounded. The first five messengers only successfully ran out two groups, and the other three groups were intercepted by the Ming army. This time, the personal soldiers of deputy general Su Yangyuan were asked for help, and all three were very good. But shortly after rushing out of the city, a team of Ming cavalry caught up with them. After a fight, the Ming army asked two to kill on the spot. The remaining one successfully escaped and rushed towards Nanyang with a quick horse.

On the top of the city, when several officers from the Green Camp breathed a sigh of relief when they saw a messenger breaking through successfully, they soon became frustrated again.

Mr. Qian, Wang Sanli, smashed the scabbard onto the city brick and cursed: "It's been a few days now. The reinforcements in Nanyang should have come long ago, but he can't even see his figure. He clearly refused to come to save us!"

When the guerrillas beside Wang Sanli heard what he said, Song Yu seemed very calm and said lightly: "The emperor is not in a hurry. When will the reinforcements come? We can't make the decision, so we can only wait here. No matter how big the fire you make and scold the heavens, will the reinforcements be scolded by you? To eliminate the fire, you should think about how to defend the city."

After hearing Song Yu's words, Wang Sanli knew that what he said was reasonable and stopped talking.

"The general is here!"

Accompanied by footsteps, Henan's deputy general Su Yangyuan brought a group of personal soldiers to the city. Su Yangyuan was originally the guerrilla guerilla of Henan Governor Jia Hanfu, but he made contributions to suppressing Yang Huanyuan's uprising. After Zhang Chao, the former general of Nanyang, went south with Prince Jian Jidu, was captured, Jia Hanfu planned to recommend Su Yangyuan to the Qing court at that time, but in the end, the position of Nanyang General was still taken over by Miao Chenglong. The reason was that Miao Chenglong favored Jia Hanfu's preferences and donated funds to build two academies, while Su Yangyuan was a pure martial artist and did not know how to please Shangguan.

Su Yangyuan led his troops very prestigious, so when he went to the city, the officers were silent. Su Yangyuan ignored them and walked straight to the cliff and looked at the Ming army camp in the distance.

"I didn't expect that one day, Su Yangyuan, I would be sent to the city by a group of bandits."

Su Yangyuan's eyes were a little lonely. When Hao Yaoqi and Ta Tianbao, who were in the opposite camp, were still an unknown man when they followed Li Zicheng to make a big fuss in the world, they were just a nameless man, and they were just like them. But in Su Yangyuan's eyes, no matter how famous Hao Yaoqi and the others were, they were just bandits. He looked down on them.

Song Yu stepped forward and said, "General, the bandits have surrounded us for several days. The morale of the brothers is a little bleak. Should we choose some elite troops out of the city and slapped the bandits' arrogance?"

"Go to fight?" Mr. Qian Bai Xiao sneered: "The bandits are more than ten times that of ours. We are not heavenly soldiers and generals, how can we fight?"

Hearing this, Wang Sanli was furious and said angrily to Bai Xiao: "You are scared by the bandits!"

"you!…"

Bai Xiaohuo put his heart on, pulled out his clothes, pointed at the wounds, and said, "I was scared to death? Do you think the wounds on this body were all stabbed by me!"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Song Yu hurriedly scolded: "Nonsense, why are you quarreling in front of the general? Do you want to be dragged down and beat a military stick?"
