Chapter 527 The Soft Liu Heizi
After the Qing army entered the customs, they began to collect intelligence on the south, and had already found out the Ming army's defenses in Jiangbei.

When Duoduo went south, he already knew from the spies of the Qing army that in order to prevent the Qing soldiers from going south, the Southern Dynasty roughly set up three lines of defense in Jiangbei.

These three lines of defense are distributed along the Xuzhou line, the Huaihe line, and the Yangtze River line.

Duoduo could see that the Southern Dynasty had worked hard on Jiangbei's defense, leaving enough depth.

The Qing soldiers broke through the first line of defense, as well as the second and third lines. It was not an easy task to break through three lines and kill them across the river.

Gao Mingheng was well aware of the Ming army's fear of the Qing army, and was worried that the Ming army would collapse at the first touch, so he put his highly valued general Gao Jie on the front line.

The first line of defense of the Ming army, with Gaojie Town in Xuzhou as the core, is located in the north of the Huai River, at the junction of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and is a threshold that the Qing army must cross when going south.

Gao Jie was a general whom Gao Mingheng relied heavily on, and Gao Mingheng put him at the forefront. Apart from the fact that Gao Jie had served under Sun Chuanting, and his troops were strong in battle, Gao Mingheng was at ease with him, so he was placed in Xuzhou.

Gao Mingheng believed that Gao Jie's town was in Xuzhou. Even if the Qing army went south, Gao Jie would be able to stand up for a while. As long as the front line does not collapse at a touch, the hearts of the people in Jiangbei will be stable, and other people will feel that they can fight.

Xuzhou blocked the way for the Qing army to go south from Shandong. Duoduo sent troops from Henan to flank Xuzhou, and even rushed directly to the second line of defense of the Ming army along the Huaihe River.

If Duoduo wants to realize his strategic intentions, he must first take down Guide to the west of Xuzhou in order to outflank Xuzhou.

Duoduo is quite familiar with the situation in Henan, and knows that the general who is stationed in Guide is Gao Yihuan's brother Liu Shun.

Speaking of which, the last time Duoduo went south, the reason why the gutter capsized was because this Liu Shun came to intervene, and Man Dahai was defeated.

The defeat of Mandahai changed all of Duoduo's battle plans, and finally he had no choice but to return north.

Although Liu Shun didn't fight Dodo face-to-face, he sneaked back to Germany in the end, but Dodo hated him.

This Liu Shun dared to rob the war horses of the Qing Dynasty in Shandong with Gao Yihuan a few years ago, and later intercepted the Shanxi merchants from transporting grain, which made him suffer a big loss during the Ruzhou battle, which is extremely abhorrent.

In this way, Duoduo fought Gao Yihuan three times, except for the first time, the remaining two failures were all related to this Liu Shun.

Duoduo couldn't beat Gao Manzi this time, and he felt a little regretful in his heart, but killing this Liu Shun would break Gao Yihuan's arm, which would make him feel better.

As far as Duoduo knew, Liu Shun had [-] soldiers and horses stationed in Guide Mansion, and his strength was not very strong.

Duoduo is going to suddenly attack Guide from the deserted Kaifeng mansion, and he will definitely be able to beat Liu Shun by a wrong hand and destroy this jumping clown.

At present, Duoduo asked people to explore the terrain of Kaifeng, and at the same time prepared to meet the banner soldiers from the north to escape the summer heat and go south to prepare for the southern expedition.

Guide Mansion, the north gate of Shangqiu City.

A group of horsemen suddenly galloped down the city, and after verifying their identities, they ran non-stop along the street towards the residence of Gui Bian Zongbing.

Liu Heizi has been running Guide Mansion for nearly four years, and the city has long since returned to life.

Shangqiu City, which was plundered by the Chuang army and messed up by Zhao Yingyuan, has recovered to 5 people because of Liu Heizi's first military adviser Ji Guofeng's hard work.

Although this cannot be compared with the Fucheng in the south of the Yangtze River, it is already quite difficult for a city that has experienced the devastation of war.

Liu Heizi was able to build Guide by focusing on two things, one was mining coal, and the other was farming.

Guide's coal mines brought Liu Heizi a lot of income, allowing him to have a large sum of money in addition to the land tax, so that he could purchase the resources he needed.

Farming is the basis for Liu Heizi to gain a foothold in Guide. He not only farms in Guide, but also farms in Kaifeng Prefecture.

When Li Zicheng attacked Kaifeng, he dug up the Yellow River to irrigate the city, and the whole Kaifeng became a swamp country. There were no people in the area for a hundred miles, and the land was abandoned.

Liu Heizi felt it was a pity that such a large piece of wasteland was covered with weeds and wolves were rampant. Ji Guofeng led more than 3000 peasants to block up the gap during the dry season of the Yellow River, ending the annual flooding of the Yellow River.

This year, Liu Heizi was preparing to do something big, and Gao Yihuan's reminder immediately made Liu Heizi worry.

At the end of last year, Gao Yihuan asked Liu Heizi to help in the battle, but Liu Heizi didn't go simply, and slipped away after half of the beating, which caused a rift in the relationship between him and Gao Yihuan.

Although Gao Yihuan won the fight later, he always felt a little uncomfortable thinking of Liu Heizi, and Liu Heizi was not too embarrassed to face Gao Yihuan.

After the war ended, Gao Yihuan and Liu Heizi expressed their understanding of Liu Heizi's behavior through several letters, and they also gave Liu Heizi money and food. Let the relationship between the two gradually cool down.

Gao Yihuan used to write a few letters to Liu Heizi almost every month, calling Liu Heizi his brother at the beginning, but now he doesn't write a few letters.

It was not until more than a month ago that a letter came suddenly, still written by someone else, reminding him that the Qing army might attack Guide, which shocked Liu Heizi.

At this time, in the backyard of the General Soldier's Mansion, maidservants and servants came in and out, packing up the belongings and loading boxes of belongings into the cart.

In the room, Mrs. Deng hugged her daughter and sat on the edge of the bed. While patting her sleeping daughter, she whispered to Liu Heizi, "Are the tartars really coming to beat Guide?"

Liu Heizi shook his head, "I'm not sure yet, but it's pretty close. Guide is on the front line, so it's not safe. You mother and daughter go to the south to take shelter. I'll pick you up when the Tartars retreat. return."

Mrs. Deng thought of his father who died in battle in Jinan. That year when the Tatars invaded the pass and killed her directly to Jinan, his father also sent her away first, and then the city was destroyed and killed. The 10,000+ people in Jinan were all taken away by the Tartars. .

As soon as she thought of this, tears flowed out, "Master, the Tartars are cruel, you must take care of yourself! If there is any danger, you should give in to the Korean public and ask him to send troops to rescue. I think the Korean public will definitely Sent troops to rescue."

Seeing Deng's tears, Liu Heizi couldn't take it anymore, he quickly waved his hands, "Madam, don't worry, I know, I will write a letter to the second year of high school, you take this Yan'er first!"

The two were talking, when a general outside was covered in blood, but suddenly ran in, knelt down on the ground, panting, "Marshal, Chen Baoping surrendered, Sui County is lost!"

Liu Heizi's heart sank, and the first thing he thought of was, "Madam, take Yan'er away!"
