Chapter 61 Iron Gate Conspiracy



Liu Zeqing had 15,000 men under his command, including 5,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry. Although they were not as strong as Wu Sangui's Guanning Army, they were still the main force of the Ming army. In terms of field battles, their offensive and defensive capabilities were first-rate.

Huang Fei's more than 20,000 men were all naval forces and were not good at land combat.

The two sides were in a head-on confrontation and he couldn't gain any advantage.

Moreover, the court is in need of talents right now and absolutely does not want to see infighting.

What Huang Fei was worried about was exactly what Liu Wenyao was worried about.

I'm not afraid of his greed, I'm afraid he won't come.

The military pay and other things could be completely let his deputy general receive them. As long as he hides in the army and continues to feign injury, no one can do anything about it.

"What General Huang is worried about is also what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and this Governor are worried about. This matter needs to be discussed carefully and arranged properly. If we are not careful, there will be no recovery! We must think of all possible situations in advance and deal with them as the time comes!"

Huang Fei thought for a moment, "Even if Liu Zeqing is faking an injury, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, he has to come and pay his respects according to the rules! If he dares to enter the city, he will surely die!"

"If I were him, I would remain sick until the end. Please meet me outside the city, Prince." Liu Wenyao shook his head slightly.

"How about we meet him in front of the city gate, set up cannons on the top of the city, and bombard Liu Zeqing as soon as he arrives?"

"It's not appropriate. It's a dark and windy night. Liu Zeqing will definitely become suspicious when he sees the spark from the fuse. Then our sneak attack will fail and we will end up losing everything! He came in the middle of the night instead of earlier or later. I guess it's because of this reason." Liu Wenyao continued to shake his head.

Huang Fei felt like his brain wasn't enough! Is Liu Zeqing so difficult to deal with?

"What about a crossbow?" He thought of the last weapon.

"It still won't work. The visibility is poor at night, unless you are sure to hit the target with one strike, and kill with one strike! Do you have such a person in your army?"

This time it was Huang Fei's turn to shake his head...

Cannons won’t work, nor will bird guns, muskets, or bows and crossbows!

What should we do?
