Chapter 331: Chaos in Arms
Thousands of miles away, Jizhou.
Sheng Weiqiao was woken up by Xuan Yu Feng Shi in his deep sleep, opened his eyes in a daze, and before he could see the figure in front of him clearly, he had already heard Xuan Yu Feng Shi say in a hurried tone: "Qiao'er, you hurry up and look at the sky in the north, what's going on?!"
“…… What?" Sheng Weiqiao heard his aunt's voice, subconsciously turned over and sat up, and saw that outside the tent that had been pulled up indiscriminately, a window facing the sleeping couch had been deliberately opened by Feng Shi, and outside the window, the dark blue night curtain that should have been embedded with stars at this moment was suddenly reflected red, like endless fire clouds in the evening!
She was frightened, suddenly completely sober, and asked in disbelief, "That's?!"
"That's the direction of the barracks!" Xuan Yu Feng's face turned pale, he took the clothes from the screen not far away, and stuffed them into Sheng Weiqiao's hand, "Yi Shan has gone to prepare the carriage, you hurry up and pack up, we must leave immediately!"
Sheng Weiqiao hurriedly dressed, grabbed a silk inlaid gemstone figure pattern gold hairpin and rolled it into a bun, swept the scattered sideburns, and asked Rong Sleeping Crane urgently: "Where is Mizhen?
"An urgent report from outside the city came to the other courtyard, and the first thing was to inform him. Xuan Yu Feng walked to the dressing table, quickly put the hairpin rings and jade combs into the makeup box that could be carried away, and said in a deep voice, "He arranged for someone to escort us out of the city to the camp where Xu Lianshan was stationed before...... The camp was not in the north, and the location was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it was safe for the time being. Mi Zhen herself has gone to General Huaihua's Mansion!"
"What the hell is going on? Could it be an enemy attack? It's just that the army should have sentry posts scattered nearby...... It shouldn't be so easy to attack the location of the base camp!" Sheng Weiqiao was shocked, hurriedly put on his dress, and took the makeup box handed by Xuan Yu Feng, although there were still many treasured ornaments, brocade clothes and spices in the house, he couldn't care about it at this time, so he could only leave it alone. When the aunts and nephews went out, they saw that the whole courtyard was in chaos, and Wu Da took a few female guards, all of whom changed into military uniforms, carrying quivers, carving bows in their arms, and long knives hanging from their waists, and they were coming head-on.
Seeing Sheng Weiqiao, he nodded: "The princess of the county has already cleaned up, and the old lady is also here, which is really good." Someone tried to take advantage of the chaos, and it took some effort for our sisters to deal with it, so we came over...... The carriage is at the back door, please come with us with the princess and the old lady!"
As he walked, he explained to Sheng Weiqiao, "The county king has just arrived at General Huaihua's mansion, and the news that General Huaihua got should be more thorough from us, and it has been confirmed that it was not Ruru's attack, nor was it an accident, but Meng Boqin's doing!"
"Meng Boqin?" Sheng Weiqiao and Xuan Yu Feng were taken aback when they heard this, "Although he and his uncle are not harmonious, each has a group of people, but there is no obvious division in the camp, the fire is so big, he is not afraid that his own people will also be affected?!"
Moreover, although the battle between Meng Boqin and Zhao Shi is well known in northern Xinjiang.
But there is such a thing as setting fire to the barracks in the middle of the night...... Isn't Meng Boqin afraid of causing public anger?!
After all, the northern Xinjiang is bitterly cold, and the materials are all transported by the Middle Earth, and in the past, under the joint attention of King Gaomi and the Meng clan to the Northern Xinjiang Army, this problem has never needed to be worried.
But right now, Chang'an is in a mess, King Gaomi wants to fight Shanglin Yuan, the Meng family is dead and wounded, and the only remaining Meng Guiyu and Meng Guihan brothers are too late to support the battle, let alone think of transporting grain and grass to the Northern Xinjiang Army.
Seeing that the summer is about to pass, but I don't know where to eat in the future, on this eye, the military camp is burned like this, and eighty percent of the grain and grass are not saved!
In this situation, how will the Northern Xinjiang Army live in the future?!
If they can't get by, how can they not ask Meng Boqin for an explanation?!
Even if it is a henchman brought out by Meng Boqin, when he is hungry, it is unknown how much loyalty can be left!
Sheng Weiqiao's mind turned sharply, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, and blurted out, "Should he ...... I just hope that the Northern Frontier Army will be cornered, right?!"
At this time, whether it was Xuan Yu Feng or Wu Da Dang, all they wanted was to send Sheng Weiqiao to a safe place as soon as possible, and Xuan Yu Feng also said: "Fortunately, Ruibin has already arrived at sea! Otherwise, how can he stand it as a child?"
But he ignored Sheng Weiqiao's words.
Seeing this, Sheng Weiqiao didn't guess anymore, and only hugged the makeup box in his arms.
After a while, the aunt and nephew went to the backyard under the leadership of Wu Da Dang and got into the carriage, which was obviously specially prepared for Sheng Weiqiao, and the seats were dismantled and seven or eight thick winter bedding were laid out in one go. Because it is the height of summer, even at night, it is very hot, and there is a layer of mattress on the top, Sheng Weiqiao was the first to help up, and before he landed, he almost rolled into the corner as if he had stepped on a pile of cotton, and couldn't help but say: "This is too exaggerated!
But Xuan Yu Feng said: "You haven't been out of confinement yet, soft spots are better than hard people...... And where did you get the effort to remove the quilt at this time? I will order it and go to the camp that Mi Zhen said!"
Sheng Weiqiao didn't say anything more when he heard this, but this carriage didn't come in handy in the end, because the whole city was in chaos at this time.
I don't know how the news leaked, in short, Wu Da and his entourage of female guards escorted the carriage out of the door, and when they got to the street, they found that there were people everywhere shouting that the hussar general had burned the barracks and baggage, and Chang'an was busy fighting and taking care of himself, and he would definitely not allocate food to this side in the autumn, and when the time came, 800,000 horses would have no food and clothing, as the people near the barracks, could they not be unlucky? !
Therefore, there are people in the streets and alleys who are jumping around like headless flies, and there are ruffians and hooligans everywhere smashing, burning, and looting.
Many families, like Sheng Weiqiao, packed up their slackness, took a carriage, and tried to go out of the city overnight to escape. It's just that some people want to go through the south gate, some people want to go through the west gate, and some people plan to go through the east gate. In short, in addition to the north gate that is on fire, the other three doors have people to choose, so the carriages and horses blocked each other on the street, Sheng Weiqiao's team was on the street for less than half a pillar of incense, and they helplessly found that there was no room for the carriage to move!
Not only that, but those scoundrels who were originally looting along the street, seeing a bunch of carriages that could not be left, and the female dependents who happened to probe in a carriage were full of pearls, their eyes lit up, and they looked at each other a few times, and they took wooden sticks and other things, and came forward with bad intentions!
The families who can travel by car at this time are more or less guarded, and they unite to disperse them...... However, it was only dispersed, judging from the fact that they were beaten and kicked, fled far away, but hid in the corners of the streets, and probed their brains, it was obvious that they were not completely dead.
"Such a big thing, how can it be publicized all over the city?" This situation made Sheng Weiqiao and the others a little dumbfounded, Xuan Yu Feng muttered, "What is Jizhou Thorn Shi doing? Don't you know how to temporarily block the news and stabilize the situation? ! Now this mess is like a pot of porridge, if Ru Ru takes the opportunity to call, this capital of northern Xinjiang will be given to others for nothing!"
Sheng Weiqiao's face was ugly, and he said: "Although Jizhou has a history of assassination, because of Meng Boqin and his uncle, he is like a transparent person, and there is no place for him to make up his mind!
He also said, "Moreover, such a big matter and such a quick time have been known to all the people in Jizhou City, which is obviously abnormal! This is simply someone deliberately shaking the people's will! The Eight Achievements were done by Meng Boqin, and the two-pronged approach deliberately ruined the situation in northern Xinjiang...... If it is as my aunt said, Ru Ru is also eyeing the neighborhood, and the entire northern Xinjiang is afraid that it will be dangerous!"
She exhaled, looked at the carriage and horses that had no way out, and said helplessly to Xuan Yu Feng, "Auntie, we can't be in the car anymore, otherwise I'm afraid that we will still be crowded here until dawn, and the carriage will be left behind...... Let's change mounts!"
Xuan Yu Feng said worriedly: "I don't have anything, I can do anything! But you ...... Can you do it?"
Counting Sheng Weiqiao, who has been sitting for more than 20 days this month, it is not long before the full moon, and when he was in the other courtyard, all his actions were as usual.
But horseback riding is different in the end, the bumps that ordinary people don't care about, the mothers who have not been confined, even if they can stand it at the time, how can they not leave hidden dangers in the future?
"It's not a question of whether it can be done or not, it's a question of whether to leave. Sheng Weiqiao pointed to the scene outside, "Either go back to the courtyard, or throw the carriage...... It's still a long way from the city gates, can you walk through it?!"
Xuan Yu Feng's words were stopped, and he comforted himself with complicated feelings: "You have always been in good health, and there will definitely be no problem riding a horse at this time!"
The aunt and nephew got out of the carriage, explained to Wu Da, and brought out two horses for them to sit on, and they could leave immediately. They were going to go to the south gate, and the people on the road were still worried about going out of the city, who knew that when they arrived nearby, they saw the city gate wide open, and people from far and near fled in a swarm.
"What the hell is going on?" With the torch in the doorway, Wu Da Da saw two young men dressed as soldiers of Northern Xinjiang in the corner, looking like brothers, lying and sitting, sitting and hugging the lying one, as if trying to keep the lying person awake.
She whispered to Sheng Weiqiao, drove her horse over, glanced at the two of them, threw down a bag of wound medicine and a bag of dry food, leaned over and asked, "Why did the city gate open in the middle of the night?"
The sitting soldier didn't want to pay attention to her, but when he saw the wound medicine and dry food, his face was happy, and he quickly stuffed the dry food into his arms, and the wound medicine was carefully applied to his companion, and he said quickly while applying: "I don't know which god is spreading rumors in the city, saying that the hussar general has colluded with Ruru and has sold the northern frontier! At this time, the general led people to burn the camp, destroy the grain, grass and blades, and poison a large number of war horses...... And Ruru's army has approached Jizhou, if you don't flee now, you won't be able to escape if you turn back!"
"A group of Diao people listened to the rumors, and they gathered to storm the defenders of the city gate, and killed our brothers, seized the noose, and opened the door to flee for their lives...... This group of brutes who should be plagued don't want to think about it, if Ruru kills them, with their two legs, they can outrun other people's four legs?!!!
The soldier was obviously very dissatisfied with the people who seized the door because of what happened to him and his comrades, and began to curse as he spoke.
Master Wu didn't want to listen to his foul language, and when he couldn't ask for more news, he turned his horse back to Sheng Weiqiao and said in a low voice: "Princess Jun, let's go!"
Sheng Weiqiao nodded with a heavy heart, and when the group went out of the city, they saw an endless stream of people on the official road, bringing the old and helping the young, fleeing, everyone looked panicked and hurried.
When they saw a horse passing by, the crowd on foot showed envy.
Probably because although Sheng Weiqiao and the others were all wearing cloaks to hide their appearances and figures, they could still see that they were women when they looked closer, and some people were ready to stop them and snatch their mounts.
Seeing this, Master Wu sneered and said in a low voice: "Princess Jun, please close your eyes for the time being!"
Before she could finish speaking, she pulled out a feather arrow from her shoulder with her backhand, put all of them on the bowstring, and shot them out without looking!
Those people were a little scared at first when they saw Wu Da show his bow and arrows, but when they saw her using a feather arrow to tie the string, she was a fancy person who didn't know how to bow horses at all, and she was still laughing and intimidating, who knew that in a blink of an eye, they all covered their necks and fell to death!
"I don't know what is alive or dead!" After killing people, Wu Da was not finished, and ordered his subordinates, "You two go down, cut off the head, and hang it on the saddle! I also taught the people in front of me an example, and know the fate of those who dare to stop us!"
The two female guards rolled the saddle and fell off the horse, strode forward and pulled out the long knife at their waists, grabbed the corpse's hair bun and started. Then he untied the buns of these heads, knotted the hair together, and carried it back to the horse and saddle it, and the whole process was calm and calm, as plain as ordinary women going to the street to buy vegetables.
This scene frightened the people in the vicinity, only to know that a group of female dependents drove horses to travel, their own dependence, by no means easy to follow, not only did not dare to continue to block, but subconsciously dodged, and forcibly from the crowded official road at the moment, to make way for horses to gallop!
Wu Da looked left and right, and saw that all the people who touched his gaze all shrank and dodged, and some people trembled, almost paralyzed to the ground, sneered, and said: "Go!"
Be the first to whip away.
When the group had gone away, the family members of the people who had just been killed dared to gather around and weep, but without crying a few times, they were persuaded by their companions to hurry away...... In the end, he is running for his life.
