"If the King of Wu really leads the Right Camp to reinforce Runing... the son-in-law thinks that it is right for us to defend the city... This is also consistent with the prince's intention of observing the situation and waiting for change..." Xia Guoqiu tentatively.

"This is not fake." Wu Sangui said casually, "With Wu Zheng's power... he still disdains to say such a lie that can be worn with just a poke."

"That's all!" Xia Guo Prime Minister tried Wu Sangui's intentions in one sentence and said loudly, "Isn't it just an emperor... There are so many people in this world that they have died, and they don't care about multiple emperors... However, for the prince's reputation, it is better to leave this evil thing to kill the king to Ma Shiying personally... In this way, we can show goodwill to the King of Wu, so that the prince can have... room for... in the future!"

Wu Sangui was silent.

Prime Minister Xia was a little surprised and felt a little nervous. Could it be... he guessed the prince's thoughts wrong?

Fortunately, Wu Sangui didn't have the intention to be mysterious at this time, so he sighed softly.

"It is related to the welfare of me and more than 100,000 soldiers... I am not careless, and I will feel regretful forever!" Wu Sangui waved his hand slowly and said, "...I'd better wait."

The Prime Minister of Xia really didn't understand this time, "The current situation, King Wu led more than 100,000 Jianxing to the right camp westward. Fengyang and Luzhou have left the left camp, Jianyang Guard and the Northern Expedition Army Chi Erhan's troops, plus the troops of Li Dingguo, the Ming army has obviously taken the initiative in the entire Henan battlefield... If the army under the prince's command is added, the entire Henan has changed its flags and flags overnight... The prince's intention is, the son-in-law really doesn't understand what he has to wait for... what else should he wait?"

Wu Sangui looked at the Prime Minister Xia, whose scalp became numb when he was seen.

I only heard Wu Sangui spit out two words - "Variables!"

....

There is never a shortage of variables in this world.

There are big variables and small variables.

Big variables can determine the success or failure of a war, or even change the dynasty.

What was the variable that Wu Sangui had to wait for? Xia Guoxiang guessed one or two in his heart, but it was not the case.

But there is one thing that Xia Guojin knew, that is, Wu Sangui was subconsciously more inclined to the Qing court.

After all, Wu Sangui turned his back on Ming first and abandoned his old master later, and now he has taken Yongli hostage.

Those excuses such as "borrowing 100,000 soldiers to fight the thieves" just deceive rural villagers.

After all, it is more cost-effective to help Qingqing or help Qingqing. At least, it can be separated from the title of "Three Family Slaves".

Prime Minister Xia stopped persuading him and slowly bowed and withdrew.

....

Ajige's sudden rushing toward the east was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

This caused the suddenness of the battlefield. Even though Chi Erhan had been reminded by Wu Zheng in private, he was caught off guard.

The soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army stationed in Shenqiu fought to the death until they exhausted all their guns and bullets, and it was difficult to stop the enemy's strong attack several times.

The Northern Expedition Army was defeated.

After making huge sacrifices, Chi Erhan led the remnants of his troops to retreat towards Yingzhou.

If it were before, Azig would have stopped when he saw the situation.

This has nothing to do with the camp, but only with stakes.

After all, behind this Northern Expedition Army, Wu Zheng and his main force of the Northern Expedition Army stood. If you can, don’t provoke them.

But now, Azig's idea is different.

Wu Zheng had led the Right Camp westward, and the momentum had become water and fire, so there was no need to worry about it anymore.

Moreover, if Runing fails to protect himself after this battle, and most of Henan has been in Wu Sangui's bag, he needs a base, otherwise if the supplies are cut off, it would be miserable.

Taking advantage of the situation to pursue Chi Erhan's troops into Fengyang and regain his old place that he had been in charge for two years, it became an unremovable greed in Ajige's heart.

....

Ma Shiying's good days are over.

After Wu Sangui waited for the "variables" he had been looking forward to for a long time, Ma Shiying's life was not easy.

His entourage has disappeared, and perhaps he has been detained or even killed.

Ma Shiying, based on his experience, had already guessed that His Highness of the King of Wu might have lost the battle, and the defeat was not small. Otherwise, how could Wu Sangui dare to treat the King of Wu like this?

Ma Shiying was counting his fingers, counting the days he might not have been in this world.

Unfortunately, he did not complete the task assigned by His Highness the King of Wu, and he did not even see Emperor Yongli.

"Ma Shiying...come out!"

A soldier reached out outside the house and shouted loudly.

Ma Shiying stood up with a wry smile, but it was still this day after all.

It must be fake to say that he is not afraid in his heart. Ma Shiying's whole body is trembling. Although he has lost a lot in recent years, his loose skin makes his chin tremble uncontrollably.

"Master Ma... I'm sorry!" Xia Guoping was waiting outside.

"I want to see King Pingxi!" Ma Shiying jumped and shouted. He knew that this was the only chance to survive.

Xia Guoxiang shook his head and said, "The prince has told me... I won't see you!"

"Brother Xia... Lord Xia... Xia joins the army..." Ma Shiying began to speak incoherently, "You can't destroy morality... The two armies are fighting, and they don't kill them..."

Prime Minister Xia laughed and said, "Where did Lord Ma come to Xinyang? Have you been to Xinyang? Who can give the certificate?"

Ma Shiying was shocked. It turned out that there were really people in this world who were shameless than him!

The scorching sun is in the sky, and the execution ground is simple.

The Prime Minister of Xia covered his eyes and looked at the sky, then turned to Ma Shiying and said, "It's a bit simpler when you go out... Lord Ma, don't blame me. When you arrive on the road to the underworld, don't hold a grudge against Xia... Xia is also on orders!"

Ma Shiying was so anxious that she stomped her feet, "Brother Xia... Brother Xia... Ma can't run away, so there's no hurry... You have to let Ma die understand, right?"

It’s true that Ma Shiying’s expression made Prime Minister Xia feel compassionate. No, such people are hard to have compassion. To be precise, they feel sad to avoid death.

"So... Then Xia asked Lord Ma to be a wise ghost... It was all Lord Ma's last wish!"

Prime Minister Xia thought for a moment, "If you want to blame, you can only blame the wrong master... You said that the prince had already made up his mind to cooperate with the King of Wu, but he didn't expect that the Northern Expedition Army under the King of Wu would be unsuccessful... Now Prince Ying led his army to defeat Shenqiu, Chi Erhan, who was stationed in Shenqiu, led his remaining troops to escape. Prince Ying led his troops to pursue him and attacked Fengyang like a bamboo shoot... Seeing Fengyang changing hands just in time... You tell me, can the prince not change his mind? Lord Ma is also a smart person, and he should understand the prince's painstaking efforts... After all, more than 100,000 lives are just in the prince's mind... I can't be careless!"

As expected, Ma Shiying became calmer when he knew the deadline was approaching.

He suddenly raised his head and shouted to the sky: "Wu Zheng... Ma has no regrets... If there is a next life, Ma will still be willing to work hard for everyone!"

Xia Guoxiang was surprised. Can a greedy and shameless person perform like this before his death?

But he can also understand that when a person is about to die, his voice will be sad...what can it be!

"Send Lord Ma... Let's go on the road!" Xia Guoxiang turned around and waved his hand.
