    Chen Yongfu did not pay attention to Liu Xiyao's small actions. He just asked Chen De and Liu Xiyao's cronies to go together to help check whether there were any negligence in the city defense.  After giving the instructions, he smiled slightly when he saw his son going out: "I wonder what the general thinks of Yu Guozhen?"

    "A peerless hero, unparalleled in the world."

    Liu Xiyao said his evaluation of Yu Guozhen almost without thinking. Before he said this, there was still some fear in his eyes.

    Chen Yongfu stroked his beard and nodded, then lowered his voice and said, "Where is King Chuang?"

    "If it weren't for Yu Guozhen, he would have suddenly soared, transformed into a dragon, and transformed into a dragon!"

    "In other words, the general thinks that King Chuang is not as good as Yu Guozhen?"

    "It is indeed not comparable to Mr. Chen. To be honest, I have suffered losses at the hands of Yu Guozhen more than once. Since ten years ago, I have suffered repeated defeats at his hands. I rarely obey others, but I have no choice but to deal with Yu Guozhen.  If you don't accept it, if we didn't have a life-and-death feud with him, I would have wanted to join him and enjoy the good life. You see, that kid Li Yan has been hooking up with Yu Guozhen for a long time. Now he is in Shanxi. In terms of territory, he doesn't have much territory and he doesn't have much military strength.  , but fighting from Shanxi to Shaanxi and then to Yumen Pass can be regarded as the king of the northwest."

    " If Liu Xiyao is not envious of Li Yan's situation, he is lying with his eyes wide open.  Although the news that Yu Guozhen wanted to exile Li Yan's subordinates also reached Liu Xiyao's ears, Li Yan at least still had hope of survival. If the Western Expedition could succeed, he might even be able to return to his homeland and return to his hometown in glory after atonement.

    He, Liu Xiyao, has no such hope.  The only blame is that he committed too many sins in his early years.  By the time he repented, it was already too late.

    "One misstep will lead to eternal hatred, and looking back will be a hundred years old."

    "What about Prime Minister Niu?" Chen Yongfu narrowed his eyes and asked again.

    "Prime Minister Niu? You are good at playing tricks, but you don't have the courage to conquer the king. To tell the truth, if Liu Zongmin hadn't tolerated me. And since I couldn't vote for the Eight Kings, I wouldn't have the heart to serve Prime Minister Niu."

    "Speaking of the Eight Kings, General Liu thought he was compared with Yu Guozhen. How about it?"

    "It's not even close, it's not even close." Liu Xiyao chuckled: "Back then, I followed the eight kings and fought with Yu Guozhen in South Zhili. Yu Guozhen was still called the Wuwei Cub there, so he killed the eight kings so that they didn't dare to look at each other.  As for now let me tell you something, do you know why the Eight Great Kings are running to Shuzhong with all their strength? His plan is to enter Shuzhong, seal the plank road, and then live happily there for the rest of his life.  Let¡¯s avoid Yu Guozhen!¡±

    "Nowadays in Shu, you can't hide by sealing the plank road, and with the sharpness of Yu Guozhen's engineering troops In addition, last year oh. It was the person Yu Guozhen sent to survey the water potential of the Yellow River the year before last. I met him before,  Listen to them talking about Yu Guozhen's plan for the rivers of China. Yu Guozhen said that he would blow up all the rocks in the Three Gorges so that ships can go straight into the middle of Shu. If this is true, haha, the eight kings will just seal the plank road, and I am afraid that Yu Guozhen's warships will all  Can blast him out."

    Yu Guozhen used the two newspapers in his hands to describe China's blueprint for the future. Therefore.  Those who care about national affairs know that Yu Guozhen has an ambitious plan for China's future transportation and economic development.

    In Yu Guozhen's land, rivers, lakes and sea plan that is expected to take fifty years to complete, the four major rivers, the Blackwater, the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, and the Pearl River, which mainly flow from west to east, will become transportation arteries, and then four north-south railways will connect them.  Connected to form a transportation network covering the core areas of China.

    Among them, the control of sediment and flood problems in the Yellow River and the control of flood and reef problems in the Yangtze River are all problems that Yu Guozhen is currently facing.  In addition to proposing to restrain sand and attack rivers and strengthen dikes, Yu Guozhen also proposed relocating people in the Yellow River Basin to plant vegetation and blowing up reefs in the Yangtze River Basin to straighten out river channels.

    Therefore, Liu Xiyao also knew about Yu Guozhen's plan, but he didn't take it seriously: "Yu Guozhen wants to achieve great success. Although I admit that he is very capable, he wants to spend fifty years to complete this Sooner or later, Qin Shi will end up holding Emperor Sui Yang!"

    Chen Yongfu smiled slightly.

    Not to mention that they were talking about Yu Guozhen's future strategy for governing the country in the room. Chen De followed Liu Xiyao's cronies out and saw the theater troupes at the door. Chen De called to the theater troupe leader: "Boss Duan, what are you going to do?"  go back?"

    "Chen Shaodong's family, it's just right that you are here. We want to go back to our residence, but now the streets in the city have been banned. Please ask the Shaodong family to say a few kind words to the villain and give him a passable number plate."

    "Passage numbers are not enough, how can military orders be ignored?" Chen De glanced at Liu Xiyao's confidant who was accompanying him and said.

    The confidant nodded, feeling that this young general was sensible and worthy of his family background.  Chen De looked at the pitiful look on the troupe leader's face and said with a smile: "But since??Because I was invited by my family to discuss this matter, I couldn't ignore it.  I remember that you are staying at the Laifu Inn in the south of the city, right? In this way, we will go to the south gate of the city. If we want to come to the Laifu Inn, you will follow us - Mr. General, what do you think?  "

    He said that Liu Xiyao trusted the general. He knew that Liu Xiyao came here to rely on their father and son's ability to defend the city. He didn't dare to be arrogant, so he immediately handed over: "But it's just a matter of the young general's orders."

    "Then let's set off now, please follow us carefully."

    Chen Dedang went first, and Liu Xiyao's cronies went to deliver the order. It was impossible to have too many people with him. The main manpower had to stay in the Chen family to protect Liu Xiyao, so there were only five people with him.  They crossed two streets, and Chen De suddenly said "Hey": "Who is sneaking there?"

    He pointed to an alley, and Liu Xiyao went there, but there was no one there.

    "Let's go check it out, sirs, guard my back." Chen De was also a brave man with a skill, he drew his bow and arrow and walked slowly into the alley, followed by Liu Xiyao's cronies.  The alley was very short. Chen De walked in only fifteen feet and reached the end. Seeing that there was no movement, he turned back with an embarrassed smile: "It was a false alarm. I'm sorrydo it!"

    When he mentioned that it was a false alarm, Liu Xiyao¡¯s cronies also had smiles on their faces. When he apologized, those people were about to clasp their fists in return, but this time they said ¡°do it¡±.  Although Liu Xiyao's men felt something was wrong, before they could react, they heard a strange noise coming from behind.

    Then, the musket fired.

    Liu Xiyao¡¯s subordinates did not expect that the troupe¡¯s costume was actually filled with muskets.

    Seeing these five people all fall down.  The leader of the theater troupe smiled and said: "Mr. Chen really has a clever plan. Liu Xiyao will really come to ask for help."

    "No matter how cunning a thief is, he can't escape the eyes of a clever detective. If Ming Dynasty hadn't been in charge of a bunch of pigs and dogs, he wouldn't have harmed Governor Sun and forced my father and son to bear the stigma of being thieves. It was Ming Dynasty that abandoned me and my son.  , it was not my father and son who abandoned the Ming Dynasty. Now that my father and son have chosen the Huaxia Army and Commander-in-Chief Yu, how dare they not spare no effort and make some achievements to atone for their old sins?"

    What Chen De said was very touching, and the squad leader knew it: "The commander-in-chief has said it a long time ago. Mr. Chen and his son had no choice but to become thieves, but they are sincere people. Young commander-in-chief, just rest assured. With this contribution, the commander-in-chief will be happy."  . If the young commander wants to continue to join the army, he must be admitted to the military academy without exception. Even if he does not want to join the army, the commander-in-chief will give him a decent arrangement so that the young commander and his son can hold their heads high when they return home in the future!"

    "Commander Yu is a great hero in this world. My father and son have heard about his grandeur and elegance. It doesn't matter what glory and wealth he has. I just want to see Commander Yu unite the country and build China again!"

    Although the brief sound of musketry occurred inside the city, the sound of cannon fire shook the outside of the city.  So it's not too noticeable.  Even Liu Xiyao, who was sitting in the room, vaguely heard the voice, but he didn't know anything else.  In his opinion, if the Chinese army enters the city, then the momentum will not only be this, but now there are only such a few voices, which proves that it is not a big deal.

    ¡°Perhaps it was his subordinates who were looking for excuses to rob people in the city. Liu Xiyao knew the virtues of his subordinates very well, and it was embarrassing to speak out about them.

    Little did he know that at this moment, Chen De led the troupe south. The troupe were doing tricks at this time, taking out the costumes of the Chuangjun from their outfits, and each of them dressed up as Liu Xiyao.  He looks like a subordinate, following Chen De, but his virtue is really like the invading army escorting Chen De.

    "You are all pretending to be true. If I didn't know better in my heart, I would have thought that you were just invading the army."

    "Haha, we are originally a theater troupe, how can we do it if we don't know how to act?" The troupe leader chuckled.

    When they arrived at the southern part of Kaifeng City, people were panicking up and down the city gates.

    The great reputation and glorious achievements of the Huaxia Army made Liu Xiyao's army very limited in fighting spirit. It was only through the constraints of the city walls and military judges that these intruders were able to support themselves.  Now that the situation in the north is tight and all the elite troops have been mobilized, the defenders at the south gate are even more worried.

    Seeing Chen De coming swaggeringly under the escort of his companions, the defenders did not doubt his presence. Someone who knew Chen De asked with a smile: "Why is the young commander still hanging out at this time?"

    "I'm not just wandering around. I've been summoned by General Liu's order to summon you for discussion." Chen De handed over the general order in his hand and asked the garrison colonel to check it. After reading it, the colonel was still a little suspicious. Chen De said with a smile:  "General Liu asked my father and son to come out to make suggestions and think about battle and defense strategies for him To be honest, General Liu felt that Kaifeng City was difficult to defend, so he asked my father and son to contact the Chinese army for him to see if he could do justice and atone for his sins.  .¡±

    He put thisEverything was told in public, and Liu Xiyao's subordinates suddenly looked at each other with suspicion.

    "Brothers, you are all sensible people. I won't talk nonsense. Now even General Liu has surrendered. If we people have anything to say, just follow it. Now that my father has gone to the north of the city, I will come to the south of the city and open the door.  City gate, welcome the Chinese army - if anyone feels something is wrong, you can ask General Liu with the general order."

    After all, the Chuang Army was not a regular army. Even though Li Yan had spent a lot of energy training, all his previous efforts were wasted in the hands of Niu Jinxing and Liu Xiyao.  Although these soldiers had doubts in their hearts, the more they doubted and thought about it, the more frightened they became: Now if they surrender, they can at least save one life. If what Chen De said is false and they expose it and refuse to surrender, then Chen De will be harmed.  After the city was broken and the Chinese army was liquidated, who could survive?

    " Following Chen De can be regarded as an act of justice, but following Liu Xiyao is a dead end!"

    "What the young commander said is, open the city, open the city!" After a moment of silence, one of the defenders caught Chen De's look and started shouting.

    Then more people started shouting. Although these shouting people only accounted for one-tenth of the defenders, when the silent ones were the majority, their one-tenth opinion became the mainstream.  Opinion.

    The south city of Kaifeng City is about to open!
