Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1141 Will be cheated

Chapter 1141 Will be cheated
The terrain of Datong Town is dangerous and difficult to be breached, but at the same time, Daqing can also take advantage of this feature to trap Jiang Xiang in Datong.

Ning Wan, I have worked for the Manchus for more than 30 years. As soon as I calmed down, I immediately thought about my master habitually. He immediately thought about how to minimize the influence of Jiang Xiang’s rebellion. This is what an old slave should have. His attitude is also the main reason why he is reused by Manchurians.

Controlling the rebellion in Datong is undoubtedly the worst choice at the moment. As long as Jiang Xiang's road to the south and east is blocked, and the rebellion is contained in the Datong Prefecture, Jiang Xiang will definitely fail when the Qing court sends reinforcements. It may be the opponent of the Qing Dynasty.

At the moment, Ning Wanwo hurriedly asked Chen Xiangsheng to act immediately, and sent a large number of Manchu and Qing spies in Datong to warn the trustworthy Qing officials in the city that there would be a mutiny in the city.

He originally wanted to gather all these officials in his Xingyuan, and then escape together at night, but because Jiang Xiang focused on monitoring his Xingyuan, it was difficult and dangerous to gather them together, so he could only agree to set off separately at night and arrive at Gather near the south of the city, and then leave the city together.

Chen Xiangsheng bid farewell to Ning Wanwo, and agreed that on the fourth watch, he would meet him outside Xingyuan, walk out of the city by the south gate, and contact other adults.

As soon as he left, after Ning Wan, I lost my mind to continue working. I kept walking around in the study with my hands behind my back, anxiously waiting for the night to come.

Using almost the same method, Chen Xiangsheng sneaked into the magistrate's office again when night fell.

Jiang Xiang didn't take this cowardly Geng stew seriously, and his identity was not as important as Ning Wanwo, so the surveillance of the magistrate's yamen should be relaxed.

During Chen Xiangsheng's two years in Datong, he had been in contact with Geng Tang for a long time. He came to the yamen many times, and he didn't need to report, so he went directly to the backyard where the prefect lived. Why are the guards here?"

Geng Tang has been in Datong for more than two years, but he basically has no sense of existence, and he doesn't care if he can't take charge of Datong's government affairs.

He had never been taken seriously in Datong, now that he is fine, the Governor has arrived, and the court is finally going to punish Jiang Xiang, Qiu Ba, he naturally feels that the good days are coming, and he is very happy in his heart.

The sticks are like the Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty. Their words can be passed directly to the ears of the regent. They are all the coats of the regent or the Eight Banners. The regent trusts them much more than the Han officials in these places. Sometimes they can decide the future or even the life of the officials below with a single sentence or a beating report.

Although Geng Tang is the magistrate of the fifth rank, he is very flattering to Chen Xiangsheng.

Chen Xiangsheng saw that he was in a good mood, but he said directly in a deep voice: "Geng Futai, the situation is urgent, I don't want to talk nonsense. Jiang Xiang may want to rebel, the governor asked me to notify the Futai, and clean it up quickly. God, go out of the city from the south gate, and immediately go to the Xuanfu to inform the defenders to deploy their defenses to prevent the rebels from attacking the Xuanfu and buy time for the court!"

The smile on Geng stew's face froze for a moment. When he heard Jiang Xiang's rebellion, his mind buzzed and went blank for a moment.

This change is really fast, he just thought that Jiang Xiang was about to fall, but he didn't expect this guy to rebel.

As soon as Ning Wan and I came, he couldn't wait to stand in line, can Jiang Xiang spare him?

Geng stew reacted, his face turned pale, and his legs began to tremble, "Chen Shiwei, is this serious?"

"For such a big matter, Futai still doesn't believe me?" Chen Xiangsheng said seriously.

After all, Chen Xiangsheng is the intelligence chief of the Manchu Qing in Datong. He said that Jiang Xiang was going to rebel, and Geng Tang had no power in Datong. He immediately wanted to hug Chen Xiangsheng's thigh tightly, "Li Weiwei , escape from Nancheng tonight, is it safe? You must take me out of the city!"

If Jiang Xiang wanted to rebel, he must have closed the city gates, making it difficult for them to get out.

Originally, Chen Xiangsheng didn't want to say too much. Most of the upright officials in the city, he didn't notify at all, and only a few particularly reliable ones got the information, but he didn't say when or how to leave. Out of season.

It was an exception for him to tell Geng Tang the main information, because he was afraid that the magistrate's yamen would be patrolled outside the gate and he would not be able to notify at night, so he told the time and place, but he didn't want Geng Tang to feel at ease.

Chen Xiangsheng hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered: "Tonight the south gate is guarded by Yang Zhenwei, he belongs to us, Gengfutai, don't worry!"

Yang Zhenwei is Jiang Xiang's general. Although he is not the core, he is also a general in the middle and upper ranks. Geng Tang knows this person and has some abilities. He did not expect to be bought by Sticky.

Hearing this news, Geng Tang was relieved.

Once people have something to worry about, the time seems to be very long. After Geng Tang got the news, he felt that every second was like a year, and he just wanted to escape Datong as soon as possible.

It was night, although martial law was not enforced in Datong City, the atmosphere inside the city was very tense. There were groups of soldiers patrolling with torches everywhere, and the gates of the city were heavily guarded.

There are four gates in Datong Town, East Heyang Gate, South Yongtai Gate, West Qingyuan Gate, and North Wuding Gate.

Not long after it got dark, Yang Zhenwei came to Yongtai Gate and took over the defense of the city gate. He was defending under Jiang Xiang, but after the Qing army defeated Zhungeer and the Ming army was defeated in Xuzhou, he did not take over the defense of the city gate. He is not optimistic about the collusion between Jiang Xiang and Nanming. He thinks that Jiang Xiang will be killed by the Qing court sooner or later. He considers his parents, wife and children, and Chen Xiangsheng promised him that as long as he is loyal to the Qing Dynasty, Jiang Xiang will be Datong after Jiang Xiang falls. The chief soldier, so he got together with Jiang Xiang behind his back.

Standing on the top of the wall, Yang Zhenwei's face revealed a complicated look. He looked up at the sky, feeling a little anxious.

Under the heavy pressure of the Qing government, Jiang Xiang gathered these generals in Datong in order to control the army and not be infiltrated and sold by the Manchus, and then sent people to command the troops in turn to ensure the Jiang family's control over the army. Although Yang Zhenwei is on defense, he can't actually control many people.

This time, Geng Tang and I will leave the city after releasing Ning, and his identity will be exposed. Fortunately, his family is not in Datong, but in Mayi. He has already sent someone to notify him to move his family to Taiyuan.

Yang Zhenwei stood at the top of the city, waiting anxiously. After a long time, it was the third watch, not long before the agreed fourth watch, and he shook his head to cheer himself up.

But at this moment, a carriage slowly came out of the dark street and slowly approached the city gate.

The soldiers with torches under the city immediately stopped the carriage, "Who is it, the military gate is ordered, and entry and exit are prohibited at night!"

Yang Zhenwei looked at the sky, it was indeed the third watch, how could someone come here suddenly, his face couldn't help changing for a moment, but at this moment the curtain of the carriage was lifted, Geng Tang leaked his head, trembling lips and said sternly: "Mr. It's the magistrate of Datong, and I have to go out of the city on important matters, where are you, General Yang?"

Hearing the news at the top of the city, Yang Zhenwei frowned immediately, before the appointed time, how did Geng Zhifu come?

He didn't know that Geng Tang spent a few seconds in the magistrate's yamen for fear of being killed by Jiang Xiang. Staying in Datong was a kind of torture for him. Concubine, they slipped out from behind the yamen.

Yang Zhenwei didn't expect that this fellow would not play cards according to the routine, he was really speechless for a while, is this Geng stew a pig?Since you don't follow the agreed routine?If found out, wouldn't it be the end of everything? Isn't Governor Ning going to be bleeding!
At this time, there are still soldiers patrolling the streets, if they are seen, the situation will be bad.

He hurriedly walked down the city wall, came to the carriage, looked at Geng Tang in astonishment, and exclaimed, "Geng's Terrace is this?"

"I don't worry about the grain collected outside the city, so I have to go out of the city to have a look!" Geng Tang's eyes flickered.

The soldiers guarding the city gate were not all Yang Zhenwei's men. Geng Tang had already arrived, and he couldn't be driven back. If he was caught, he might kill everyone!
Yang Zhenwei's heart burst into flames, wishing to slap the pig's head to death, but at this moment, a group of soldiers with torches in the distance was patrolling.

For a while, Yang Zhenwei didn't have time to think about it, he could only let Geng stew out of the city first, and then hoped that Governor Ning would come soon, when he saw the torch in the distance, he immediately ordered the left and right: "Open the city gate, let the mansion out of the city! "

He gave an order, and the soldiers under him were ready to open the city gate immediately, but a hundred households in the city shouted: "General Yang, there is an order from the military gate, no one is allowed to leave the city!"

Preparations are a big deal anyway, Jiang Xiang couldn't possibly explain to the soldiers below, hundreds of households in the city didn't know that Jiang Xiang was going to rebel against the Qing Dynasty, but he was not stupid, he could sense a trace of atmosphere, he immediately reminded Yang Zhenwei .

Hearing the reminder from the hundreds of households in the city, Yang Zhenwei's face turned cold. He winked at the guards around him, and then scolded: "Are you the guard, or am I the guard!" Dare to refute, Yang Zhenwei glared at him, turned his head to look at the soldiers in front of the city gate, and immediately glared again: "Open the gate!"

Yang Zhenwei was a big official, and the soldiers under the city hurriedly opened the city gate according to the order. The hundreds of households above saw it, and saw several Yang Zhenwei's servants hurried up the stairs, their faces sank, and they hurriedly said to a soldier beside them: "Go and report to the military gate!"
