Xu Yougong said this and stopped talking. He was a smart person, and he believed that Yu Ren was also a smart person. With Yu Ren's identity, he had no courage to refute Yu Ren's face in person, so he had to express his thoughts tactfully.

Yu Ren glanced at Xu Yougong and knew that this kid was just an excuse to talk about Mao Wenlong. To put it bluntly, he still didn't want to go with him. If he really wanted to go with him, no matter whether Mao Wenlong was there or not, it would not have any impact. Because the order for the sneak attack was given by Wang Huazhen. Even if Mao Wenlong died, he ordered his subordinates to continue to execute the order of the governor, I believe no one would have any objections. To put it bluntly, this is just an excuse he found for his retreat.

So Yu Ren waved his hand to him.

"We will discuss this matter later. Let's discuss the details of the attack on Zhenjiang Fort first. See how feasible it is, okay!"

After saying that, Yu Ren ordered his subordinates, "Go and call Mao Fugui."

The man agreed and went there quickly.

In a moment, Mao Fugui ran over happily.

"Sir, you call me?"

"Oh! I asked you to come here to introduce you to the situation of Zhenjiangbao. Have you been to Zhenjiangbao?"

Mao Fugui nodded repeatedly. "I know, I know. I've been there a few months ago! I know the terrain of that area very well."

Yu Ren nodded. At this time, he found that since Mao Fugui entered the door, Old Man Yang, Ma Dacheng and Xu Yougong stopped talking. The three of them stared at Mao Fugui blankly, their eyes full of shock.

Yu Ren also noticed something strange about the three of them. "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

The three of them looked at each other and then Ma Dacheng said, "This Mao Man Wai looks so much like our newly-dead general Mao Wenlong. Even if we have followed him for several years, there is almost no flaw."

Yu Ren was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the ginseng general Mao Wenlong, whom he had never met, looked like the Mao Fugui in front of him. This made Yu Ren a little disappointed. How could a person as vulgar as this kid be a ginseng general?

Although Yu Ren is not a person who judges people by his appearance, he believes in the art of confrontation. Mao Fugui has long eyes and small noses. When Yu Ren saw him, he felt that he was a cunning person. The subsequent contact also confirmed his judgment.

If it weren't for his most familiarity with the situation in Liaodong, Yu Ren wouldn't have used such a person. And that Mao Wenlong Ginseng General looked the same as him. Then would he be a cunning person like Mao Fugui?

Yu Ren was thinking, and Ma Dacheng suddenly spoke, "Mr. Yu, if we let this Mao, Mr. Mao, pretend to be our Mao Shen General, then wouldn't this matter be done!"

After hearing Ma Dacheng's idea, Xu Yougong couldn't help but glared at him hard. He knew very well how dangerous it was to sneak attack the Jurchens behind, not to mention that it was not just a sneak attack, but also to guard the city. This was simply a matter of life-and-death death!

If he hadn't been able to escape this job, he wouldn't have come even if he had been beaten to death. Now that he finally had an excuse, he would certainly insist on returning to Guangning. But now Ma Dacheng actually gave Yu Ren such a bad idea. Thinking of this, Xu Yougong couldn't help but stand up anymore, pointed at Ma Dacheng and started cursing.

"Ma Dacheng, you shameless villain. General Mao Shen always regarded you as a brother during his lifetime, but when his body was not cold, you wanted to find someone to impersonate him. Are you right to him?"

Ma Dacheng also stood up, "Xu Yougong, I know your thoughts. You are just afraid of death, so you deliberately make excuses. I am thinking about the overall situation. The sage once said: Those who do great things are not limited to minor matters. For Guangning, for Liaodong, and for the peace of the Ming Dynasty, I am willing to bear the reputation of betraying my friends like this."

Xu Yougong sneered, "It's so noble! To put it bluntly, it's just for fame. But, what if you succeed? Can you keep it if you take Zhenjiang Fort? Will the Jurchens let us insert a knife in their lair without pulling it out?

The Jurchens were already fierce in fighting, and Zhenjiang was their rear. Once Zhenjiang was lost, they would inevitably send troops to fight. Just how could we defend the city by hundreds of us? This was simply an impossible task. Governor Wang asked us to go, but we just wanted us to die!

You want to die, but I don’t want to die with you.”

After saying that, Xu Yougong turned around and left. It was not easy for him to leave. At this time, he had a fight with Ma Dacheng, and happened to use this as an excuse to lead troops back to Guangning. This fight was actually something he deliberately wanted to argue with Ma Dacheng.

Yu Ren, who was standing beside him, saw Xu Yougong turn around and walk out of the straw shed, suddenly a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Yueyue!"

A figure suddenly popped up behind the straw shed.

The figure flashed out, and everyone did not see the person clearly, but Xu Yougong, who was walking out, stopped. Then everyone saw that Xu Yougong's head slowly fell off his neck, and Xu Yougong's body slowly pounced forward.

When Ma Dacheng and Old Man Yang saw this scene, they were secretly surprised. They didn't know how Yu Ren was doing this. In the next step, how would he deal with him.

Yu Ren calmly glanced at Ma Dacheng and Old Man Yang, "Xu Yougong, as an officer of the Ming Dynasty, was afraid of death, and tried to deceive people's hearts and fled. I have already killed him on the spot under General Mao's secret order.

If anyone dares to deceive the morale of the army and intends to escape in the future, this person will be a role model!"

After Yu Ren said this, he glanced at Mao Fugui who was still staring blankly outside, and said, "General Mao Shen, do you think so!"

Mao Fugui didn't understand what Yu Ren said for a moment, so he could only stare at Yu Ren foolishly, "Ah?"

Ma Dacheng and Old Man Yang, who were standing beside him, had already understood. So they bowed to Mao Fugui together, "Respect the general's order."

The next morning, Yu Ren's three merchant ships and Ma Dacheng and his two warships set sail together. The target was the Zhenjiang Fort of the Jurchens. Mao Fugui had been officially pushed to the position of the general of the gang by Yu Ren, Ma Dacheng, and Old Man Yang, and sat up his Mao Shen General.

But he, the general, had no idea of ​​his own and listened to Yu Ren. When others asked him for instructions, he didn't say anything, so Yu Ren, who was beside him, did it for him.

After a day of sailing, everyone came to a small island overseas in Xuanzhou, North Korea. This island is called Pi Island.

Although it was a surprise attack, Yu Ren was still worried about the accident. After all, although this surprise attack seemed to be very small in scale and only a few hundred people, success or failure greatly affected the entire Liaodong battle situation, and even had a far-reaching impact on the overall situation of the world. Yu Ren had to be cautious, he could not bet on luck.

Therefore, Yu Ren chose this small island less than a hundred miles away from Zhenjiang Fort, but isolated on the sea and not within the control of the Jurchens as a springboard. He had to first understand the situation in Zhenjiang City and then consider how to attack, rather than blindly attacking the city. He had too few people and could not withstand the loss. Otherwise, even if they captured the city and the Jurchens counterattacked, they would immediately throw the city away.

Zhenjiang City is about 400 miles away from the new capital of the Jurchens. Although the straight-line distance is not far, it is because there is a Changbai Mountain remnant. It is not easy for the Jurchens to send large groups of troops to reinforce.

This area is separated from the western Liaoning Plain by the Changbai Mountain remnants. Because there is a large plain here, not far from the sea, and abundant river water, suitable for farming, there are quite a few Han residents. This is also a characteristic of the formation of sedimentation over time. Most Han people often live in plain areas where rivers and suitable for farming, while ethnic minorities often live in mountains, forests or grasslands, which are not suitable for farming.

Just like the Changbai Mountain now. If the Jurchens had not been strong in recent years, occupied most of the Liaodong and plundered the Ming Dynasty by force, they would still be in Changbai Mountain.

Yu Ren was interested in the terrain of this place. Fifty miles away from Zhenjiang City is the remnants of Changbai Mountain, and there is a fertile plain around Zhenjiang City that can support hundreds of thousands of people. They chose to gain a foothold here, and first of all, they had a foundation of self-sufficiency.

If the Jurchens send a brigade to attack, if they really can't defend, they can choose to retreat to the deep mountains. After the Jurchens' brigade leaves, they will come out of the mountain to regain the city.

However, if you want to do this, you must first gain a foothold here and gain the support of locals. The first step to gaining Zhenjiang City is to establish yourself here.
