Chapter 179 Taking down Nanzheng
Just after the arrangements were made, the soldiers at the door came in and reported: "General, General Yang said he has something important to discuss."

Yang Ang is here?Why come at this time, did he find out what I just did?

Ge Hao shook his head, first to see what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd, "Let him in."

Yang Ang walked into the room, he was tall and burly, with a fierce appearance.

He also heard the news of the Xiliang army's retreat, and he was overjoyed. This was an excellent opportunity to regain his territory.

But he still has some concerns. Although his status is higher than Ge Hao's and he has more soldiers and horses than Ge Hao, Ge Hao has the food and grass in Nanzheng City in his hands, and he still needs to rely on Ge Hao to allocate food in terms of supply.

What if I returned to Weixing County now and ran out of food halfway?This is a problem, so he came to Ge Hao to discuss it in the middle of the night.

He said politely: "General Ge, the Xiliang army has already retreated, and the crisis in Nanzheng City has been resolved, so I want to lead my men back to Weixing County, but I am worried that there may be insufficient food and grass on the way, so I came here at night. Discuss with the general, can you give me a month's supply of food?"

After Ge Hao heard Yang Ang's words, he immediately wanted to express his opposition. The Xiliang army has not completely retreated. If you leave now, you will lose 5000 people under your command. How can you lose such a big piece of fat?We must find a way to stabilize him first.

"General Yang, if you choose to leave now, I will definitely not stop you. I can also give you food and grass, but the risk is too great now. Please think carefully before making a decision."

"I don't dare to jump to conclusions that the Xiliang army has retreated. What if they pretended to retreat? In this case, you might be ambushed when you go out of the city. I have sent many scouts out to investigate. The results will come soon, and General Yang is asked to wait in the city for a few days."

Yang Ang was unwilling to stay in Nanzheng City for an hour, but what Ge Hao said was very reasonable. Now that he had no food and grass, and was threatened by an ambush, he had to agree first, "The general is reasonable, then I will Just wait a few days."

In the middle of the night, Huang Zhong hadn't fallen asleep yet, he was waiting for news from Ge Hao.At this time, his personal guards entered the big tent and reported: "General, General Ge sent someone to see the general."

Finally came, "Quickly ask him to come in!"

Ge Hao's confidant entered the tent and said to Huang Zhong: "General Huang, my general asked me to come here this time to ask you why you are retreating. Did the king have a new order?"

"That's not the case. If we don't withdraw our troops, you won't be able to come out. Now that we have regained our contact network, you should go back quickly and tell the truth what you just said. Also, give him this letter. After reading it, you will naturally understand everything.”

After Ge Hao's confidant retreated, he hurried back to Ge Hao's mansion in the city, and handed the secret letter to him. Ge Hao was overjoyed after reading it. Huang Zhong had already told him all the plans in the letter. There is still some ambiguity on the timing issue.

Ge Hao burned this secret letter, and wrote another letter by himself. I would like to trouble the soldiers just now to go to the Xiliang Army camp again, and hand it over to Huang Zhong himself.

Huang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the letter. Ge Hao directly stated in the letter that he would let the Xiliang army wait outside the city gate tomorrow night. After the plan was successful, he would directly open the city gate and invite the Xiliang army to enter the city.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, the next afternoon, the scouts returned to the city to report the news, saying that the Xiliang army had completely withdrawn from Nanzheng County, and that the safety of Nanzheng County had been lifted.

Yang Ang felt that there was no need for him to wait any longer, so he directly sent someone to Ge Hao's house to demand money and food.

Ge Hao agreed very readily this time, and said that there will be a big banquet in the evening, and inviting him and his generals to the banquet is to see him off.

At night, Ge Hao's mansion was brightly lit, and five tables of banquets were set up in the courtyard to entertain Yang Ang and his generals.

Not only that, he also invited famous squires in Nanzheng City, and invited many dancers to the places where he ate, drank and had fun.

During the dinner, the singing and dancing are peaceful, the meat is fragrant and the wine is mellow, the dancers are enchanting and graceful, and the moon beauty is even more beautiful.The soldiers kept bringing delicious food and wine to the table, and everyone on the table was laughing and laughing, so happy!

Ge Hao got up straight away, raised his wine bowl and said, "Thank you General Yang for your help this month. Without him, Nanzheng City would have been lost long ago. I would like to thank General Yang first."

"You're leaving early tomorrow morning. I'm a rough man, and I have nothing to say. I'm all in the wine. I'll do my best."

He suddenly raised his head, drank all the wine in the bowl, and showed the empty bowl in his hands to everyone. Everyone applauded in unison, and Yang Ang was very happy in his heart. He drank a lot with his subordinates and looked at the audience The dancing girls couldn't help but have other thoughts.

All of this was seen by Ge Hao, and he said directly to Yang Ang: "General Yang, you are leaving tonight and tomorrow, so I will let these dancers go to everyone's room to accompany you tonight, which is also a gift from me." What do you think of everyone's farewell ceremony?"

Yang Ang laughed loudly after hearing this, "I didn't expect my virtuous brother to be so considerate of me, so I offer you a toast."

Everyone continued to drink at the table, and the confidant walked up to Ge Hao, bent down and said, "General, Old General Huang is already outside the city gate."

It's time to start. Seeing that everyone was drunk, Ge Hao asked people to take all the squires and dancers away, and said to Yang Ang: "It's getting late, I've already arranged for you dancers, how about everyone?" Go back to the house early to rest, don't worry, I will send the money and food directly to the house tomorrow morning."

He also said: "I purposely let people bring your horses to the back door. After all, it is not good for the soldiers to see such a thing as taking a dancing girl away. Please forgive me."

"My brother is still thoughtful, so let's go home now." Yang Ang had finished speaking, and the generals under him felt embarrassed to stay any longer, and after clearing all the wine in the bowl, they got up and left.

They supported each other and walked towards the back door. As soon as they reached the back door, Yang Ang felt that something was wrong. He looked around and found that the wall was full of soldiers with bows and arrows. The drunkenness in his mind disappeared instantly, and he shouted: "It's been tricked, everyone go!"

But it was too late, an arrow shot directly through his mouth, and a volley of arrows shot in front of the back door, Yang Ang and his generals fell to the ground one after another.

Ge Hao stepped forward, and after making sure that everyone was dead, he immediately led his soldiers to the gate of the city.

The gate of the city was wide open, and after Huang Zhong saw the torches on the top of the city, he knew that the plan had been successful, and quickly led the army into the city.
