Heifeng Village is not far from Shuoyang Valley. After Liu Fangxiong decided to surrender to Li Dingguo, he immediately led the brothers in the village to Shuoyang Valley.

This is the only way to Hanzhong City. Since Li Dingguo wants to attack Hanzhong, he must pass here.

They were waiting here in advance and would definitely wait for Li Dingguo.

But after waiting for three days, he still couldn't wait for Li Dingguo, and even couldn't see the shadow of the army. Liu Fangxiong was a little panicked.

Will Li Dingguo take a small way to Hanzhong?

Although there is only one main road, there are countless small roads.

Li Dingguo also knew very well about the Hanzhong generation. It would not be impossible if he decided to take a small path into Hanzhong.

If this is the case, wouldn’t the brothers in Heifeng Village be lost?

Liu Fangxiong hurriedly sent dozens of people to the front to inquire about the news.

If Li Dingguo really leads his troops to take a small path, their plans will also change.

Luo Laoliu comforted him, "Boss, don't be too anxious. The attack on Hanzhong was a matter of the king of Jin attacking Hanzhong. It was nothing more than that time might change. I think it is unlikely that he would change his path. After all, a 100,000 army, which path can accommodate a 100,000 army."

Liu Fangxiong thought about this and it seemed that this was the same. It seemed that he was too anxious.

Then wait. Anyway, they have enough food to bring in this time, so there is no need to worry about food outages.

...

...

After waiting for another two days, Liu Fangxiong and others finally waited for Li Dingguo.

When Li Dingguo's vanguard camp arrived at Shuoyang Valley, they immediately came out to express their desire to surrender to King Li Jin.

This general in the Pioneer Camp was nothing else, but was selected by King Bai Wenxuan of Gongchang.

Bai Wenxuan was still very cautious and interrogated Liu Fangxiong carefully as soon as possible.

I asked about the other party’s identity and the other party’s name, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a thorough investigation.

Liu Fangxiong was not angry either, and said it one by one.

After all, he wants to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, so it is normal for the other party to have some doubts.

If Bai Wenxuan accepts them without asking anything, he will be panicked if Liu Fangxiong is replaced.

As expected, after this thorough inquiry, Bai Wenxuan did not agree to accept Liu Fangxiong's troops, but instead expressed that he would wait until the King of Jin came before making a decision.

Liu Fangxiong naturally had nothing to say. Now the decision is not up to him, he just needs to follow his orders and act.

However, taking advantage of the wait, Liu Fangxiong tried to get some useful information from Bai Wenxuan.

For example, did the King of Jin plan to take Hanzhong and attack Guanzhong, or wait until the imperial court's northern expedition army was in place before advancing.

The former may attract a lot of credit and limelight, but there are still risks.

That is whether the emperor or the court would have any opinions about the King of Jin and think that he was not aware of the current affairs.

After all, the emperor may have to establish his prestige through his personal military performance during the Northern Expedition. If the limelight was snatched away by the King of Jin, it would naturally be impossible to do this.

Since Liu Fangxiong decided to return to the Ming Dynasty, he naturally had to think of his position clearly.

Although he was the original Ming army in Hanzhong, he returned to the Ming Dynasty through Li Dingguo's hands.

If Li Dingguo was scolded by the court, he would also be overshadowed.

But if Li Dingguo is too popular, it is indeed not a good thing.

Maintaining a proper measure is particularly important.

Bai Wenxuan did not directly respond to Liu Fangxiong. First of all, he believed that Liu Fangxiong's identity was a direct official army, so he naturally went to the court.

Some words cannot be said directly to him.

Secondly, Bai Wenxuan didn’t know what Li Dingguo was thinking.

If Li Dingguo really decided to attack Guanzhong without asking for instructions after taking Hanzhong, Bai Wenxuan would also choose to obey absolutely.

After all, soldiers are very fast, and he still understands the reason why the general will not accept the orders of the outside king.

If you have to ask the court for instructions in everything, then the daylily will be cold when the imperial edict arrives.

Of course, there is one thing that is clear about Bai Wenxuan, that is, Li Dingguo is becoming more and more cautious now.

He seemed very serious in his attitude towards the court.

Therefore, Bai Wenxuan felt that Li Dingguo might still ask the court for advice. Although this would delay the opportunity to fight, it could guarantee that he would not be impeached.

The more the soldiers in the old Xiying win, the more dangerous they are. The sword hanging above their heads may not fall off at any time, it depends entirely on the emperor's attitude.

There was no way, everything was decided from the moment Li Dingguo decided to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

What Bai Wenxuan can do now is to share the worries for Li Dingguo as much as possible and let them receive the rewards they deserve.

Because of the sudden appearance of Liu Fangxiong and others, Bai Wenxuan decided to stay and wait for the main force of Li Dingguo to arrive.

Not long after the Pioneer Army was stationed, the traces of the Qing army sentinels were discovered.

Judging from the confessions of some Qing soldiers captured by the Ming army, Li Guoying obviously knew that Li Dingguo was about to attack Hanzhong.

Li Guoying was naturally very panicked inside. He was like sitting on pins and needles and needles all day long and was full of thoughts on how to defend Hanzhong City.

He sent a large number of sentry detectives to grasp the movements of the Ming army as much as possible, so as to decide whether to defend Hanzhong or not.

I was a little shocked to hear that Bai Wenxuan was selected here.

After all, Li Guoying was also the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi by the Qing court, and he was definitely a magistrate of the border. He dared to lead his troops to invade Chengdu, but why did he be so scared that his legs trembled in his pants when he heard the name of King Jin?

Is it because he, Bai Wenxuan and Feng Shuangli, or is it because Li Dingguo is too strong?

Bai Wenxuan felt it was inexplicable and could not be laughed at.

Feng Shuangli was defeated by such a cowardly hand, which was really frustrating.

Since Li Guoying has the intention to run away, he must have left a way out for himself.

In this case, Bai Wenxuan could not let him find useful information.

On the one hand, he ordered his subordinates to strengthen the search, and once the Qing army's provocate was found, he captured it immediately.

On the other hand, he ordered people to return to the King of Jin's army quickly and asked the army to speed up and strive to arrive at the city of Hanzhong as soon as possible.

Obtaining a Hanzhong City alone is no longer enough to satisfy the appetite of Bai Wenxuan and others. What they want is to capture Li Guoying alive.

If the Qing government appointed by the Qing court could capture the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, not only would the Qing army in Hanzhong lose its morale, but the Qing army in Guanzhong would surrender.

For the Ming army, efficient Northern Expedition was what they urgently needed to do now.

If every battle of a city is exhausted, I don’t know when the Northern Expedition will be fought.

Just a half-baked man like Li Guoying is not enough to spend too much energy on the Ming army. The Ming army must keep its energy to confront the main force of the Eight Banners of the Qing army.

Although the Eight Banners Army has appeared in several major battles in Jiangnan, they actually only show their faces and do not really contribute.

Li Dingguo and the Thirteen Kuidong families were actually holding their breath, which was to prove their strength by defeating the Eight Banners Army on the front battlefield. I believe the emperor thought so, so before the battle against the Eight Banners, these battles could only be regarded as appetizers.
