When Gao Mingheng, the Henan Censor, heard the report, he arrived at the city gate as soon as possible.

"What's the situation?" Seeing Chen Yongfu approaching him, he immediately asked, "The thief has retreated while the night is sunny?"

"Sir, please see!" Chen Yongfu hurriedly walked a few steps, approached the battlements, and then pointed at the thieves camp outside the city, turned to Gao Mingheng and said, "The thieves camp is empty!"

Gao Mingheng took a few quick steps, maybe he was too excited. He tripped himself and almost fell down. Fortunately, Chen Yongfu was quick-eyed and quick-handed, so he held him in one hand.

If it were normal, it would be embarrassing. However, at this time, Gao Mingheng didn't care at all and immediately looked at the thieves' camp outside the city.

Sure enough, although it was a little far away, it was still clear that there was no one in the thieves' camp.

"This..." Gao Mingheng couldn't help but be extremely excited. He dragged the long voice and turned to look at Chen Yongfu, and immediately asked, "Is the thief leaving?"

When he said this, he suddenly remembered something and quickly added: "Can it be that the thief made a big move two days ago, but he was defeated, so he ran away?"

Looking at Master Gao’s expectant gaze, Chen Yongfu was very calm and said calmly: “Sir, there is this possibility. But I will think that this possibility is not great!”

When Gao Mingheng heard his first speech, his face suddenly showed ecstasy, but then he heard the second half of his sentence, he suddenly became unhappy and lowered his face and asked, "Why is it unlikely?"

Despite this, he understood that in terms of experience in war, Chen Yongfu must have made more sense. Therefore, deep down in his heart, he was very disappointed.

When Chen Yongfu heard this, he was about to explain, but he heard another movement from behind. When he turned around, he saw that King Zhou was taking his sons to the top of the city.

Seeing them turn around, King Zhou quickly asked happily: "I heard that the thief retreated? Is it? Did the thief retreat?"

His overjoyed feeling was simply overwhelming and he didn't hide it at all.

After hearing this, Gao Mingheng said calmly: "Your Highness, the thief retreated. But I think that things are not as simple as this!"

When Chen Yongfu heard this, he was a little surprised and couldn't help but look at him, but he was very wise and didn't say anything.

"What, what's going on?" King Zhou stood at the battlement with a little breath, looked at the bandit camp outside the city, and asked with obvious disappointment.

Gao Mingheng heard this and replied, "The thief made a big move two days ago, and I realized it, they..."

Just as he was about to make up, Chen Yongfu suddenly interrupted him and said, "Sir, there is movement!"

When Gao Mingheng heard this, he was shocked and immediately turned to look.

Sure enough, in the direction of Chen Yongfu's finger, that is, the Yellow River, there were teams of cavalrymen running towards Kaifeng City.

It was like red clouds floating towards this side.

When Gao Mingheng saw this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Is this the court official army's night not to be taken away?"

As soon as he said it, he suddenly came to his senses, then immediately closed his smile and said to the King of Zhou: "Of course, it may also be a thief who pretends to be a thief. We must not be careless!"

"Mr. Gao is right, and the thief has many tricks. You must be careful, you must be careful!" After hearing this, King Zhou nodded and agreed.

He said this because there had been incidents in the past when the thief pretended to be an official army and wanted to trick the Kaifeng city gate.

While they were talking, those nights came very quickly. Some went to the bandit camp, some came to Kaifeng City, and some went in other directions.

The people on the head of Kaifeng City, from the King of Zhou to ordinary soldiers, did not speak, and all stared at these nights and watched them. It seemed as if they could see whether these nights were not received or not!

I saw those Ye Bushang without any scruples. They entered the range of the defenders at the city, and arrived at the moat. Then they shouted to the city: "The Duke led his troops to rescue Kaifeng. The bandits were killed and injured and captured 50,000 prisoners, and a great victory!"

Hearing this, the ordinary soldiers on the city heard it and couldn't help but cheer loudly. The reinforcements of the imperial court arrived, defeated the bandits, and Kaifeng rescued the siege!

However, the King of Zhou did not cheer.

When the King of Zhou looked at Gao Mingheng, he asked with anticipation: "Master Gao, is this true?"

Gao Mingheng turned his head to look at Chen Yongfu, then frowned and said, "Duke is the leader of the Duke? Which Duke is it? The nobles of our Ming Dynasty, and there are still people who can fight?"

If we could really fight, we would not have seen no nobles leading troops to fight until now.

His implication was actually understood. The great victory he called for at night was probably fake.

Because the King of Zhou had just received the imperial edict and heard his repeated questions, he guessed: "Can they be the Duke of Xingguo who is in full swing now?"

"Duke Xingguo?" Gao Mingheng heard this and repeated in a low voice, he made a more conclusive thought that it was fake to not collect the night outside the city.

They didn't think about it, just saying that the leaders of the government are more reliable than the leaders of the Duke of Xingguo! Because Duke of Xingguo seemed very young, he had never heard of having the experience of leading troops in wars before, able to defeat bandits, and it was the kind of person who won a great victory?

However, although he thought so in his heart, he was not completely sure, so he turned to Chen Yongfu and said, "Come on, let me see if there are any flaws!"

He shouted loudly, and he lost his identity.

After hearing this, Chen Yongfu immediately shouted outside the city: "I haven't heard of reinforcements from the court. Which duke do you call me? How many soldiers are there? Where is the duke now?"

The leader outside the city heard the night-bang leader and replied loudly: "Of course it's Duke Xingguo! He led more than 20,000 Beijing camps, and the Xiao Yuan camp, plus five guerrillas, a total of more than 50,000. Now the Duke is leading his troops to Kaifeng. You can prepare to welcome him quickly!"

When he heard this, Gao Mingheng next to him asserted: "This is to let us go out of the city and have a good plan!"

He had sufficient reasons to be sure, that this must have been pretended to be a thief.

Not to mention Duke Xingguo, he just recruited Xiao Yuanying. This is impossible! After all, with the example of Zhang Xianzhong, who dares to recruit thieves again!

King Zhou heard what he meant, and couldn't help but feel depressed. It turned out that Kaifeng still had no chance to rescue him!

Now Kaifeng City is almost out of food! If you keep surround yourself like this, it will be a matter of time before Kaifeng falls!

Thinking of this, he was a little unwilling to give up, so he confirmed to Gao Mingheng: "Mr. Gao means that the night outside the city is not taken away. Is it actually a thief army?"

When Gao Mingheng heard this, he was about to answer with certainty, he suddenly heard a strange movement from the Yellow River.

So he did not answer immediately, but listened carefully.

On the head of Kaifeng City, others also heard the movement and became quiet one by one. This made them hear it clearly.

"The wind is roaring, the horse is roaring..."

The lyrics are short and easy to understand. Tens of thousands of people sing in unison, and they are so majestic.

Gao Mingheng immediately heard the meaning of defending the country in the song, and immediately he began to wonder again.

If it is a thief, he will definitely not be so troubled, and he will even make such a song and sing it together.

However, in the imperial army, I have never heard of such a song before!

Thinking of this, he turned around and asked Chen Yongfu in confusion: "Have you heard of it?"

Gao Mingheng suspected that this was a song in the army, and he had never heard of it. However, if it was a song in the army, Chen Yongfu would definitely know it.

However, Chen Yongfu shook his head and said, "There is no such song in the army, and it is unheard of!"

However, as a military man, he was sure of one thing. The thief would definitely not be able to sing such a song so energetic. Therefore, he added: "It should be that the reinforcements of the court have arrived!"

When the few people around heard this, they couldn't help but look forward to it again. If the reinforcements from the court arrived, it would be great!

So, no one spoke on the top of the city. They stretched their necks one by one, looked into the distance, and looked at the direction of the Yellow River.

The song "Defend the Yellow River" is simple, easy to understand, and catchy. When the army marchs, it can also sing loudly. And it is over and over again, without any obstacles.

It is possible that this is written by the Duke of China, or that each army has a meaning of competition, or that it is also possible that there is a rare song suitable for the army. Therefore, the song "Defend the Yellow River" is like waves, surging towards Kaifeng City one after another.

When we saw the army coming from the head of Kaifeng, all of which were the uniforms of the imperial government troops and the flags could be seen, many people on the head of the city sang in a low voice.

"Sir, it's true, it's really reinforcements from the court!" At this moment, Chen Yongfu suddenly said to Gao Mingheng very excitedly.

When he saw Gao Mingheng turn his head to look at him, he pointed his hand and said, "Sir, please look, the one under the Wu brand is the guerrilla who came a few days ago. Wu Sangui, yes, it's him!"

Before Gao Mingheng could speak, he pointed to a flag with a "white" character and hurriedly added: "That's Bai Guangen, yes, even he, he has been here before."

The last time Gao Mingheng arrived at the city gate, Wu Sangui and others had already left and didn't see him. But that didn't matter, because his eyes were already staring at the central army.

There, under the "Zhang" flag, a person in a python suit was very dazzling. As long as the person who looked over, the first thing he saw was to look at the person in a python suit.

When Gao Mingheng heard that when he was about to speak, he heard a surprise voice coming from behind: "Where is the Duke of the Kingdom, where is the Duke of the Kingdom?"

He turned his head and saw that it was the angel who came to deliver the order before. He was immediately overjoyed and asked quickly, "Look, is it really the Duke of the State?"

After the angel issued the imperial edict, he could not break through, so he stayed in the city. To be honest, he was in a bad mood and would be dead without reinforcements from the court.
