Chapter 262
Li Yan deliberately looked forward to the days before he dared to come to see this princess of Zhou.
As soon as Qin Fei took people to Fuzhou to rectify the new troops who came to join him in various places, Li Yan changed into women's clothes and ran to persuade Princess Zhou to agree to his invitation and go to Dali, Yunnan to be a hostage instead of Qin Fei.
He also knew that if Qin Fei really went back obediently, it would definitely be more than lucky, but if he didn't go back, he would be disobeying the order, so he came up with such a compromise method.
In fact, Yan Qin's practice has always been that whenever a general is sent to command the troops outside, he must leave his family in the capital and not take him out. Just like when Wu Changbo was guarding the Shanhaiguan in the past, his parents' family all stayed in Yanjing, and even his most beloved concubine Chen Yuan couldn't take it with him.
The court did this all to prevent the generals who were in power from rebelling. Now there are 100,000 soldiers under the King of Linchuan, and some people from all over the country who resist gold have heard about the deeds of the King of Linchuan to engage in gold, and they have come to defect, for a while Chen Zilong, Xia Wanchun these young talents, as well as a large number of people of insight such as Du Yinxi, Zhang Huangyan, Wang Huacheng, Zhu Tianlin, Zhang Jiayu, Yang Weizhi, etc., have come to vote, willing to drive.
It is inevitable that the court will be jealous and suspicious of such a popular expectation, but it is absolutely impossible to follow the holy will and obediently hand over the military power to Yunnan. If you don't obey the order, you can't take the instructions of the court seriously.
If you want the imperial court to rest assured that you can continue to let the king of Linchuan lead the army to resist Jin, then you can only send the princess of Linchuan to Dali, Yunnan to show that he has no dissent, and only wants to fight the enemy wholeheartedly.
Li Yan is now a little grateful for Qin Fei's anger that day, regardless of the overall situation, he took all his warships to surround Fusang and talk to others, such fanfare and vigor made the world know. The image of His Royal Highness the King of Linchuan who does not love the country and loves the beauty is now deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and women and children know it.
What could be more sincere than sending the most beloved woman of the King of Linchuan, his heart, to Yunnan as a hostage? What's more, now that Princess Linchuan is still pregnant, King Linchuan can put the lives of their mother and son in the hands of the court, so what else can the court not rest assured about?
As for convincing Princess Zhou, he is also very sure, as a □□, he should share his worries and solve problems as his husband, even if he sacrifices himself when necessary, it is also natural.
What he was afraid of was that the princess agreed, but Qin Fei didn't. Li Yan really never dreamed that there would be a man in this world who cared so much about a woman, and this man was still a dignified prince who couldn't find a woman.
If Qin Fei knew that he wanted to send the princess he had snatched back from the Fusang people to the tiger wolf's den, he was afraid that he would be able to eat him alive. That's why he picked a guy who sneaked in when Qin Fei was away, and wanted to persuade Princess Zhou to leave for Yunnan immediately, so that when Qin Fei came back two days later, if he wanted to chase after him, he should ...... Probably...... I can't catch up!
However, Qin Fei did not come back two days later as he had expected, but returned to Quanzhou the next day.
He guarded against Qin Fei to know, and Qin Fei didn't want to prevent him from talking to Cai Wei. If it weren't for the fact that the few officers and soldiers who came to vote for him in Fuzhou had a quarrel with the rest of the Dashun army, and he had to mediate and deal with it, he would never have left at this juncture, so he had to send more people to keep an eye on Li Yan for him.
Even so, he still couldn't rest assured, and there was always a sense of foreboding, so he quickly cut through the mess, settled the dispute between the two armies in Fuzhou with three strikes and five divisions, and set off for Quanzhou the next day. On the way, I received the news from Quanzhou, and I was even more hurried and ran all the way.
It was easy to rush to Quanzhou, but I saw Qiu Wu waiting outside the city gate. Qin Fei hurriedly asked him, "What about the princess?" ”
"The princess ordered someone to prepare the car early in the morning and went to the west gate......"
Before Qiu Wu finished speaking, Qin Fei had already turned his horse's head and headed west, so anxious that he shouted behind him: "Your Highness, wait, it's actually ......"
Qin Fei still cares about him, he galloped wildly, in order to do things conveniently, he could run back to Cai Wei as soon as possible, and he didn't know where to get a good horse that could travel thousands of miles a day, he was extraordinarily handsome, and before Qiu Wu finished shouting a word, he couldn't see the figure of His Royal Highness anymore, only the flying dust was left.
Qin Fei still thought that the horse was running too slowly, and he couldn't wait to run in front of Cai Wei immediately and block her way into Yunnan.
"Go to the West Gate", isn't going to Yunnan just going to the west? She actually obeyed Li Yan's words, and if she didn't say a word to herself, she would go to the mouth of the tiger and throw herself into the net.
The more Qin Fei thought about it along the way, the more he hated it, not only hating Li Yan's mouth, but also hating Cai Wei for always thinking about the overall situation like this, but ignoring his feelings.
He originally estimated that it would take at least half an hour to catch up with Cai Wei and his party, but he didn't know that he had galloped along the official road outside the west gate for a while, and then he saw a Qinghu carriage parked beside the road.
Qin Fei didn't recognize the carriage in his own house, so he hurriedly ran over to take a look, but Cai Wei was not in the car, and pointed to a green mountain in the south and said, "The princess Niangniang, the red general, and the horse girl went up the mountain." ”
Qin Fei raised his eyes and looked at that place, and immediately remembered this place—Yinglie Mountain.
As soon as he heard Cai Wei go out of the West Gate, because what he was most afraid of was that Cai Wei would leave him for the sake of the overall situation, so he was concerned about chaos, so he preconceived that Cai Wei must be going to Yunnan, and he only cared about chasing all the way, and then couldn't think of other possibilities, such as Cai Wei came out this time, just to come to Yinglie Mountain to pay tribute to a person.
And the reason why she walked from the West Gate was because Yinglie Mountain was in the west of Quanzhou City. This hill was not originally called this name, because the mountain is full of rhododendrons, and in spring, the red flowers all over the mountain are very beautiful, and the locals call it Rhododendron Mountain.
Until a few months ago, after Qin Fei repelled the siege of the Tartars, he buried countless soldiers who died in the Battle of Quanzhou here, and specially erected a tomb for a person here, built a martyr's shrine, and changed this mountain to the Martyrs' Mountain.
Qin Fei turned over and dismounted, walked up quickly, and sure enough, he saw Cai Wei's figure in the martyr's shrine built on the top of the mountain.
As soon as Ma Li and the Red Lady saw him coming, they didn't wait for him to speak, and they had already gone hand in hand with interest, leaving this world to the two of them.
Qin Fei took the wine handed to him by Cai Wei, silently congratulated in his heart, sprinkled it on the ground, and put three sticks of incense in front of the incense case, and then got up and helped Cai Wei slowly walk out of the ancestral hall.
"It's windy on this mountain, why don't you have a good baby in the house and come here to blow the wind? It's that you want to come to pay tribute to Imperial Doctor Miao, didn't I promise you, when I come back, I'll come with you, why are you in a hurry at this time. Qin Fei touched her forehead as she spoke, and then pulled the cloak on her body that was blown up by the mountain wind.
It turned out that the siege of Quanzhou was solved that day, Qin Fei was finally able to lead a group of soldiers to fight back, beat the Tartars and fled in panic, except for Zheng Yihu's fleet finally rushed back to Quanzhou at the last moment, the biggest hero was the Miao Taiyi who pretended to surrender to the enemy.
On that day, Qin Fei endured all the reluctance in his heart and carried Cai Wei to a boat, which had already stopped at a very hidden beach, and from there, he quietly sailed north at night, and he could avoid several warships of the Tartars guarding the harbor of Quanzhou.
The sea ship carrying Cai Wei had disappeared in the night for a long time, but Qin Fei was still standing motionless on the seashore, staring at the dark sea. I don't know how long he stood up, but seeing that the sky was light, he got on his horse and returned to the Shuaifu, put on his armor, and planned to go to the city to fight the Tartars to the death.
But who knows, the Tartar broke his promise, and promised to break through the city gate of Quanzhou on that day, but there was no movement for a whole day.
It was this day that saved the fate of Quanzhou City and everyone in the city.
That night, Zheng Yihu's fleet returned to Quanzhou, bringing with them hundreds of small boats captured from the Nilan, hundreds of cannons, countless □□, and most importantly, invaluable food.
Because Quanzhou has been out of food for several days, if Zheng Yihu does not come back, it means that the Tartars will not come to attack again, so they will continue to surround them, and if it takes some time, it will also kill them.
With enough grain and grass, and with the help of Zheng Yihu, the situation of the Qin army in Quanzhou City was much better. What made them even more overjoyed was that the Tartars had been standing still for the next three days, giving them enough time to recuperate and recuperate.
Three days later, when the Tartars came to attack the city again, Qin Fei was keenly aware of the abnormality of the Jin people, and the Hao Duo, who usually always rode a tall horse to personally supervise the battle under the city, was nowhere to be found, and the Tartars' offensive did not seem to be as brave as before.
Later, he learned that the reason why the Tartars did not attack the city for four days was because their commander Hao Duo was secretly assassinated and fell unconscious. And the person who stabbed him was none other than Imperial Physician Miao.
Since Imperial Doctor Miao entered the Golden Camp, he secretly passed the acne to a group of golden soldiers by treating his injuries, but it was not an easy task to make half of the 100,000 golden soldiers infected with this disease, and it would take at least dozens of days of hard work. He saw that Hao Duo was about to make the final blow to Quanzhou before he was done, so he took advantage of the opportunity to diagnose his pulse, held several acupuncture needles together as a sharp weapon, and stabbed Hao Duo at a certain acupuncture point, which made him unconscious for four days before waking up.
And it was the four days when Hao Duo was unconscious and unable to command the army that made the situation inside and outside Quanzhou City change dramatically.
In four days, the Qin army in the city finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the acne spread by Imperial Doctor Miao among the Jin soldiers finally broke out and spread on a large scale. After a few more days, nearly forty percent of the people in the camp were infected with this terrible epidemic. Even the coach Hao Duo was infected with this acne disease and his life was dying, because Miao Taiyi had specially prepared the acupuncture needles to prick him in advance.
All of a sudden, the people in the Jin Soldier camp were panicked and had no intention of fighting, so Qin Fei was able to completely drive them out of Fujian like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves.
It can be said that in this big victory, Miao Taiyi alone is great.
However, after the war, when Qin Fei searched for his body everywhere, he couldn't find anything, according to the captured Jin Bing, after the Miao Imperial Doctor stabbed Hao Duo, he was immediately hacked to death with a knife, and when Hao Duo woke up, he ordered someone to chop him into meat paste and feed it to the dogs, and the bones were scattered, and the bones were all gone.
Qin Fei had no choice but to put some of the clothes and utensils he left in Quanzhou in a coffin, erect a mound for him, and build a martyr's shrine to commemorate him.
After Cai Wei heard about this on the way back to Quanzhou, she always wanted to come to pay tribute to the loyal soul of Imperial Doctor Miao, but it was only because she had been sick that she had been delayed until now.
She looked back at the martyr's shrine located under the verdant pines and cypresses, and said: "Your Highness's choice of this place is excellent, and if Imperial Physician Miao knows about it, he will definitely like the place that His Highness chose for him." The reason why I am in a hurry to come to pay tribute to Doctor Miao today is because I will leave Quanzhou tomorrow. ”
Her words were said lightly, and when she heard it in Qin Fei's ears, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
