Chapter 115: An Unexpected Visitor

Goguryeo quickly retreated, crossed the river in a hurry, did not stop after crossing the river, and marched another thirty miles, only then slowed down and rested.

Su Dingfang on the side of Baiyan City immediately sent troops, and at the same time to monitor the Goguryeo people, and waited for Goguryeo to leave fifty miles before going to Benxi, Benxi City because of its proximity to the river, the water source is sufficient, and the population is not many, but with the token of the Yuan family, it is easy to enter the city.

Quickly control the city gate, and then 15,000 troops entered the city, suppressed the 3,000 guards in the city, and then the retreat began, pulled out some thorns and beheaded them in public, immediately suppressed everyone, and then obediently began to relocate, after all, compared to the family business, life is more important.

Dragging the family with the mouth, the speed is very slow, this has long been expected, Su Dingfang ordered, only allowed to carry food, clothing, the rest of the furniture is abandoned, after arriving at the place, the government will compensate, this is the speed up.

It only took one day and one night for the 30,000 people in Benxi City to be forcibly relocated, and the pontoon bridge was burned, and Zou Yu and their affairs were temporarily ignored on the other side of the river.

At noon the next day, when Yuan Taizuo came to recover Benxi City with his men and horses, he saw that it was a city with wide open gates, an empty city, and a messy street, which looked like a dead city in summer.

"It's... This... Chickens and dogs are not left! Yuan Taizuo was so angry that his chest continued to rise and fall, and he gritted his teeth and said.

Yuangai Suwen only wanted to immediately wave his troops and turn back and fight Zou Yu to the death. His eyes widened, and a pair of eagle eyes were blazing with rage, and he shouted: "What a reason! ”

"Forget it, it's useless to be arguing, I didn't expect them to move so fast." Zhong Zijin said with embarrassment, you must know that this method was proposed by him, and Yuan Gai Suwen insisted on crossing the river and refused.

As soon as Yuan Gai Suwen heard him say, he couldn't help but look back and glare, to say that this Yuan Gai Suwen's action was really a little weird, he sat upright, his head was actually twisted one hundred and eighty degrees, and suddenly, Zhong Zijin's heart was scared wildly, and then he reacted that he was actually frightened by a junior, and he couldn't help but be annoyed and angry.

"The head of the Zhong family is right, it's useless to argue again, Su Wen, you go and arrange for the soldiers to defend, let's go back first." Yuan Taizuo saw Zhong Zijin's face change, and hurriedly spoke.

"Humph! Leave! Zhong Zijin snorted coldly and left with his sleeves.

"We're taking our leave, too." The martial master and the young master glanced at each other and said at the same time. With the departure of the three of them, the alliance of the four great families was disbanded.

This time the coalition not only did not take advantage, but suffered heavy losses, the three of them left, Yuan Taizuo couldn't help but have a trace of haze in his heart, if he wants to join hands again in the future, I am afraid it will be difficult, as the first family, he has to face the pressure of the royal family, which makes him feel physically and mentally exhausted.

"I want to kill them!" Yuangai Suwen stared at the back of the team and said in a cold tone.

"No, I will have to rely on them to fight against the royal family in the future." Yuan Taizuo shook his head and said.

"The child understands!"

"Okay, just understand, let's clean up this mess first." Yuan Taizuo stiffened his body and said, this period of time, worrying about labor has made him ten years old all of a sudden.

…………

Of course, Baiyan City is not suitable as a gathering place for the people, so select a part to supplement the auxiliary troops, and finally leave 10,000 foot soldiers and 5,000 auxiliary soldiers for Su Dingfang to garrison Baiyan City, and Zou Yu took the others back to Fushun.

Before he had time to rest, he ushered in a group of unexpected people.

"Xiaguan Pei Shiqing has seen the general!" The leader is a middle-aged man with a slender figure, wearing a green official uniform, and an elegant temperament.

"Hehe, Mr. Pei, don't shout, this official is not a general." Zou Yu hadn't figured out the meaning yet, so he said with a quiet smile.

"The lower officials didn't shout nonsense, this is Your Majesty's will." Pei Shiqing took out a scroll of holy decrees from his sleeve, did not open it, and handed it directly to Zou Yu.

Zou Yu is not polite, took a glance and ten lines to look up, now although the writing is average, there is still no problem to see, ignoring those words of praise, mainly two points, the first is to add Zou Yu as the general of the expedition to the east, Youzhou Governor in charge of Youzhou, Yi, Ping, Tan, Yan, Beiyan, Ying, Liao eight states; The second is to suppress the bandits, let him lead the east of the river and the general manager of the march of Hebei Road, pacify the place, and fight with Yang Yu, the acting king of Daxing, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue in Luoyang, to eliminate the rebels.

To be honest, Yang Guang's reward surprised Zou Yu, this almost handed over the entire Liaodong and Liaoxi to him, there was no restriction on soldiers, except that there was no king, there was almost no difference between the others, and it was for him to fight, he could fight anywhere, it depended on his strength.

Handing the holy decree to Fang Xuanling, Zou Yu calmly arched his hand and said: "Mr. Pei has worked hard all the way, please return to the saint, and say that Zou Changfeng will definitely send troops to suppress bandits in accordance with His Majesty's will." ”

Pei Shiqing saw that Zou Yu's complexion just changed, and he returned to normal, and couldn't help but secretly admire, no wonder he was able to conquer several counties in Liaodong at a young age.

"Forgive me, general, I'm afraid the subordinate can't bring the words here." Pei Shiqing smiled and arched his hand.

"Why is that?" Zou Yu asked puzzled.

"Knowing that Liaodong is sparsely populated, Xiaguan specially brought thirty students to serve and asked the general to accept them." Pei Shiqing pointed to a group of young people standing quietly on the side and said.

"Oh! Sit down for a moment, this matter is going to be discussed. Zou Yu was silent for a moment.

"General, please!" Pei Shiqing nodded.

"Well, you're welcome." Zou Yu asked people to serve tea and took Fang Xuanling to the back.

"I can't imagine that the general is so young!" A young man sighed.

"Zhongyun can't underestimate the general, you must know that they don't have any support, and they have defeated several counties in Liaodong, and everyone must have heard about it when they came, but the generals have just defeated the army of Goguryeo." Pei Shiqing said solemnly.

"Zhong Yun didn't dare, he was just too surprised, and the general's bearing was extraordinary, far surpassing people of the same age." The young man replied.

"The surname Zou has a long history, starting from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and there are civil and military ancestors on the ancestors, and it is said that the general's ancestral home is Fanyang, which is likely to be the main lineage of the Zou family." Pei Shiqing said with a smile.

"This little nephew knows a little bit about it, Qi is the third Zou, Zou Ji was once the prime minister of Qi, Zou Yan and Zou Zheng are the ancestors of the Yin and Yang family." Another young man said.

"That's true, although the Zou family has not produced a big man for hundreds of years, but the inheritance has never been broken, when it was great in Fanyang, the current Lu family is a lot worse, but later many people avoided trouble in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I think that soon after, someone will come to help." Pei Shiqing gave them a share and said.
