    When Lin Fengxiang saw the messenger sent by King Yi and then received the order from King Dong, telling him to immediately withdraw from the siege of Huaiqing and return to Yangzhou along the original route, he couldn't tell what kind of mentality he was in.

    Looking at the detailed withdrawal plan in the decree, Lin Fengxiang tilted his head and looked at Prime Minister Zeng Lichang, the Xia official who came to deliver the letter in person, "This decree is so detailed that it even selects which ferry we should take.  "

    Zeng Lichang smiled and said, "Master Lin, the matter is indeed a bit special, otherwise I wouldn't have asked me to come all the way here to find you. From Yangzhou to here, I followed the withdrawal route prescribed for you.  I personally surveyed it, and it turned out to be an excellent route. I took two hundred swordsmen with me, and I didn't encounter any obstacles in the way."

    "Thank you for your carefulness, brother, and being the sentry agent for us." Lin Fengxiang showed a smile on his face, shook the imperial edict in his hand, and put it on the table, "The military situation is unpredictable, and the military situation will also change at any time.  The edict was issued in such detail, so it may not be" He chuckled twice and stopped talking.

    "Come on, you Mr. Lin, you are also a prophet," Zeng Lichang raised his hand and pointed, "The Yellow River ferry I passed by was full of Ji Wenyuan's soldiers and horses. Could it be that you also expected that I would come to deliver the edict to withdraw the troops.  ?¡±

    "I'm not as quick as Zhuge Liang. I just followed King Yi's order and made some preparations in advance." Lin Fengxiang burst out laughing. He suddenly shook his head and stared at Zeng Lichang and asked,  "Did something happen in Tianjing? Why was the Northern Expedition suddenly cancelled?"

    "I can't tell you the specifics. I just heard from someone who sent me an order from the Dongwang Mansion that Heavenly Father's eighth and ninth sons have descended to earth. Now they are named King An and King Ning." Zeng Lichang said with a smile.

    "Haha, isn't it someone who is possessed again?" Lin Fengxiang looked disapproving.

    "No," Zeng Lichang said seriously, "Officials of all sizes in Beijing, including the King of Heaven, all witnessed them flying down from the sky."

    "Can such a thing happen?" Lin Fengxiang didn't seem to believe it.

    "No one would believe it unless they saw it with their own eyes." Zeng Lichang heard a rush of horse hoofbeats coming from outside the tent. Knowing that it was Li Kaifang coming, he stood up, looked at Lin Fengxiang and said with a smile, "When I left,  I have received an edict from the Yangzhou and Zhenjiang garrison to dispatch some people. I heard that they are going to Tianjing to form a new army. You have gathered the elite of the Chinese dynasty here. If you are lucky, you may be able to see you back in Tianjing soon.  It¡¯s time for King An and King Ning.¡±

    In the afternoon, another fierce battle started under Huaiqing City.

    The rumbling drums, the sound of cannons, the sound of horse hooves that floated by and away like the wind, were intertwined with the shouts of hoarse people, and the shocking earth was shaking.  The cold light from countless green and cold weapons formed an ocean, making the sun feel shy. It secretly hid behind the clouds and never came out again.

    Yu Bingtao watched as the tide surged up endlessly, receded, and surged up again. The longhairs, who seemed to have no fear at all in the face of death, could not help but feel a little admiration and regret while gnashing their teeth in hatred.  If our Qing soldiers were all like this, why would they sign those humiliating treaties with foreigners?

    "Master Yu, it seems that Changmao is a little exhausted." Mr. Qian, who was responsible for commanding the armed forces organized by the servants of each family and assisting the Green Camp soldiers in defending the city, pointed to the city and said with some pride.

    Yu Bingtao also discovered that although Changmao's attack and momentum today were more ferocious than in the past, when they reached the base of the city wall, they seemed to have lost their tenacity.  "Don't be careless. Changmao has been outside the city for more than 20 days, and he has to take into account Lord Shengbao's restraint behind him. There will always be times when he gets tired. If we persist for a few more days, we will probably be able to relieve the siege." As he said that, he  He lowered his head and looked at the large, heavy knife he carried in his hand every day. He couldn't help but feel funny in his heart. If he really had to fight with a long-haired sword in hand-to-hand combat, would he be able to cut someone?  Never mind, it will be lost soon anyway.  Thinking of this, looking at the overwhelming number of longhairs outside the city, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. Maybe I would like to thank these longhairs for helping me achieve a miracle.

    The fierce battle continued until near dusk, with no sign of ending.  The fight between blood and fire in the human world made God feel sad, and its face began to turn gloomy. As it let out a few huge and dull sighs, big tears flowed down.  First they were spots, then they became lines, and finally they were like pouring water.

    With God¡¯s intervention, both sides finally ceased fighting.

    When Yu Bingtao returned to the Yamen, Hu wiped off the rainwater from his body. As before, he began to write a report to the court, "Today, the long-haired people continued to attack Huaiqing, and they were extremely rampant.  The minister personally braved artillery fire, and the governor led the green battalion soldiers and the local braves to fight with them, and finally asked Changmao to look at the city again.?Xing sighed.  Under the city of Huaiqing, rivers of hairy blood accumulated, and corpses piled up like mountains"

    After finishing writing, he gently put down the pen in his hand and admired it several times.  He leaned back, closed his eyes, and stretched his legs comfortably. A mere Huaiqing turned into an impenetrable one in his hands. Long live the Holy Ming, and he will never forget his

    Under the cover of heavy rain and darkness, Lin Fengxiang withdrew from the camp along with the last batch of soldiers.

    He looked back from time to time, looking at the camp behind him as before, looking at the dark city walls of Huaiqing in the distance. As the chief general of the Northern Expedition, he felt more regretful now.

    "You have gathered the elite of our dynasty here. If you are lucky, you may be able to return to Tianjing to see Prince An and Prince Ning soon." However, when he thought of Zeng Lichang's words again, something seemed to come up in his heart.  expectations.

    He turned around resolutely and stopped looking behind him, "Just wait, sooner or later, I, Lin Fengxiang, will come back. Not only will I go to the small town of Huaiqing, I will also go to Beijing and the Forbidden City"  He wiped the rain off his face vigorously, with a contemptuous smile on his lips
