Chapter 644 Nanyang Gunpowder Keg

Gao Huan sat in the big tent. Soon, Yang Yan brought one person into the big tent.

Gao Huan looked at him. The person who came was dark-skinned, strong-body, and had a great face. He was obviously a general who had been through a long battle formation.

"Li Laiheng, Shunguo, pay homage to King Liang!" Li Laiheng, who was exhausted, immediately bowed his fists when he saw Gao Huan.

"Li Laiheng!" Gao Huan was delighted, no wonder she felt familiar.

Li Zicheng's subordinates were Liu Zongmin, Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Liu Fangliang, Li Laiheng, Dang Shousu, etc., and they were actually rare talents.

Most of these people are gathered in Li Guo's army now.

Gao Huan smiled and said, "General Li doesn't have to be too polite. This time, Li Jianguo sent you here, don't know what's up?"

Li Jiyu launched a mutiny and supported Li Zijing as the emperor and empress. Liu Zongmin and others wanted to support Li Guo as the emperor and compete with Li Jiyu.

However, on the one hand, Li Guo felt that he was just Li Zicheng's nephew, while Li Zijing was Li Zicheng's younger brother, and he had no confidence in his bloodline. On the other hand, he was in the two palaces and did not have the strength to be called emperor.

After all, Li Guo is weak and there is still a way out if he doesn't become an emperor. It will be difficult for him to retreat if he becomes an emperor.

Therefore, Li Guo did not proclaim himself emperor, but chose to serve as the governor.

"Report to King Liang!" Li Laiheng said in a deep voice: "Although Your Majesty was killed by a traitor, the Jianguo has always adhered to the alliance with the Liang Kingdom. Now the traitor Li Jiyu has raised hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Jianguo. The Jianguo hopes that the Liang King can fulfill the alliance and send troops to help the Jianguo defeat Li Jiyu."

Gao Huan has been coveting the lands of Nanyang and Xiangyang occupied by Li Guo for a long time, but he has never had the opportunity or excuse to seize them.

This Shunguo coup caused Gao Huan to lose an ally, but it was not completely unhealthy.

Shun the civil unrest, which undoubtedly gave Gao Huan the opportunity to seize Nanyang and Xiangyang. However, these two pieces of land were not in Li Jiyu's hands, but in Li Guo's hands, making it difficult for Gao Huan to seize it by force.

Therefore, Gao Huan has been waiting, hoping that Li Guo could not hold on and took the initiative to surrender to him.

However, Li Guo, Liu Zongmin and others never said anything, and Gao Huan wanted to hear it.

At this time, Gao Huan was a little disappointed when he heard Li Laiheng's words, "General Li, when he signed the alliance, he was attacking the third country, but now you are following the domestic chaos, so I really don't want to interfere."

In dealing with the Shun domestic chaos, Gao Huan and the Qing Dynasty maintained a certain tacit understanding, and neither side directly sent troops to participate in the war.

The Qing Dynasty supported Li Jiyu a lot of military funds. The Qing army transported armies in the rear, but rarely participated directly in the war on the front line to avoid the involvement of Liang State.

Gao Huan just transported materials to gather troops and put pressure on the war, but did not come to participate in the war.

Li Laiheng heard Gao Huan's words and said anxiously: "King Liang, Li Jiyu has the support of Jiannu behind him. This is the third country to subvert my Dashun. How can Liang State ignore it? Now Li Jiyu's army of hundreds of thousands has already attacked Nanyang. If King Liang does not rescue him, Nanyang and Xiangyang will fall into the hands of Li Jiyu. At that time, there will be no benefit for Liang State!"

Gao Huan stood up, walked back and forth in the tent a few steps, then turned to Li Laiheng and said, "General Li asked me to think about it for a few days, I will give you another answer!"

"King Liang~" Li Laiheng still wanted to persuade.

At this time, Yang Yan turned sideways and said, "Please, General Li!"

Seeing this, Li Laiheng could only hold his fists, "The military situation is urgent, so please send troops as soon as possible to save Dashun!"

After saying that, Li Laiheng was asked to leave the tent, while Gao Huan stood in front of the map with his hands behind his back, thinking.

Gao Huan does not want to change Liang's plan now, and he does not want to intervene in the civil war immediately.

However, Gao Huan could not really let Li Jiyu annex Nanyang and Xiangyang.

For Gao Huan, it is best to maintain the status quo now, unless Li Guo is really destroyed or Li Guo decides to surrender to Daliang, Gao Huan will send troops.

At this time, Gao Huan thought for a while, walked back to the table and sat down, then picked up his pen and wrote a manifesto warning Li Jiyu.

The content of this manifesto is very simple. Liang State expressed serious concern about the civil war that occurred in Shun State and warned Li Jiyu not to continue to advance to Nanyang and Xiangyang, which would harm the interests of Liang State.

If Li Jiyu did not listen to the advice and the army would continue to stay in Nanyang and not withdraw from Guanzhong, the Liang army would directly participate in the Shun civil war and support Li Guo to conquer Guanzhong.

After writing the manifesto, Gao Huan immediately said loudly: "Come here!"

"King!" Yang Yan bowed.

Gao Huan instructed in a deep voice, "Release this manifesto."

"I accept the order!" Yang Yan took over the manifesto.

Gao Huan was inspecting eastern Henan, and the first person to receive the manifesto was not Li Jiyu, but Duoduo on the north bank of the Yellow River.

At this time, in the Duoduo Camp, he heard people recite Gao Huan's manifesto and couldn't help but snort coldly, "Gao Manzi is really rampant. Follow the civil war. Is it his turn to express his concern?"

Boluo said: "Prince, Gao Barbarians are strong and their horses are strong, and their firearms are sharp. He has already made the point that if Li Jiyu does not retreat, the Liang army will join the war. What should we do then?"

When Duoduo heard the words, his face turned dark.

Although Duoduo's capture was quite generous in the Battle of Luoyang, the Qing army was obviously not ready to fight the Liang army, nor did they want to face the Liang army head-on. Instead, they hoped that Gao Huan would give him another chance to attack.

Nanyang, outside Dengzhou City, Li Jiyu's camp.

Tian Jianxiu suddenly picked up the tent and entered the big tent, which made Li Jiyu, who was discussing matters around the sand table, and many generals looked at each other.

"General Quan, what kind of morality is like in panic?" Li Jiyu couldn't help but frown.

During the Battle of Hedong, Tian Jianxiu was captured by the Qing army and later incorporated into the Green Camp Soldier.

When Li Jiyu was in a mutiny, the Qing court sent Tian Jianxiu to support Li Jiyu. Later, the Qing soldiers returned to Hedong, but Tian Jianxiu stayed in Shunguo and became General Quan.

Tian Jianxiu had a dark face and took out a manifesto and handed it to Li Jiyu, "King, Gao Huan's manifesto, let us withdraw our troops immediately!"

Li Jiyu raised his eyebrows and squeezed out the word "chuan". He took the manifesto and looked at it, and then became furious, "Gao Huan, you are so domineering. I am so arrogant. Why should I listen to him and withdraw back to Guanzhong? Is he so big?"

Tian Jianxiu said in a deep voice: "King, Gao Huan has issued a manifesto, so he must be careful!"

"What are you afraid of?" Li Jiyu snorted coldly, "If Gao Huan issues a manifesto, I will be scared to withdraw my troops, and then don't do anything from now on. Now Dengzhou is about to be defeated, so I will continue to attack."

"King, what if Gao Huan sent troops?" Tian Jianxiu asked.

Li Jiyu gritted his teeth, "Don't worry, if Gao Huan sends troops, the Qing army and the Northern Ming army will definitely not sit idly by. I will take down Dengzhou first and see how Gao Huan does to me."

Shunguo occupied Guanzhong, and Li Jiyu was fearless. If Gao Huan really sent troops, he could retreat into Guanzhong. With the pass, the Liang army could not enter Guanzhong at all.

Thinking of this, Li Jiyu sneered and rubbed the manifesto and threw it into the brazier.
