"Yes, General." The messenger replied with his head buried in his head. The body lay firmly on the ground, not daring to move at all. For fear that it will cause dislike of the people sitting on it and bring disaster to themselves.

"Damn." After listening to the messenger's answer, Fu Heng gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and knocked on the armrest of the chair fiercely.

"This thief is really too deceitful. I haven't beaten you yet, you're going to come and beat us first. What else is it called a bandit army, what does it mean? Do you think we're bandits? Even if we are bandits, we are bandits that you can't afford to provoke. When recalling the name of the bandit army, Fu Heng was even more difficult to restrain angrily in his heart.

However, Fu Heng hadn't had time to vent his anger in his heart. At this time, a messenger from the guard came from outside the door: "Report, there are 600 miles in Fujian urgently. ”

The guard's words made Fu Heng's heart tense: "Is there something wrong with Fujian again?" ”

"Quick." Fu Heng hurriedly commanded.

"Huh!" The guards hurriedly got up and went to pass it on.

After a while, a dusty Fujian came to report the messenger, came to Fu Heng and knelt down and shouted:

"Minions, see General Pingnan."

"Well, Fujian Liuli is urgent, what is the report?" Fu Heng asked after answering.

"Report to the general, 150,000 anti-thief soldiers entrenched in Meizhou, Guangdong, and attack Fujian in two ways. There are many anti-thieves, all the way to attack the city, and now the soldiers are pointing directly at Longyan and Zhangzhou. ”

Although General Hezhang tried his best to resist, his troops were insufficient, so he ordered his servants to ask General Pingnan for help. The book written by General Hezhang is here. When the messenger had finished speaking, he held a letter high above his head.

Seeing this, Su Yunting, who was beside Fu Heng, naturally went to the messenger's side, took the letter, opened it, and forwarded it to Fu Heng.

Fu Heng took the letter handed by Su Yunting and glanced at it a few times. After identifying the seal in the letter, there was not much difference between what the letter said and the messenger.

At the same time, He Zhang also said in the letter that he was originally going to mobilize Fujian sailors to Guangdong to harass them. But he never thought that after the Guangdong Navy Division surrendered to the enemy, his strength increased greatly with the support of the anti-thieves.

Today, the Fujian Navy Division is trapped in the lack of warships and has been blocked in the harbor, making it difficult to go out to defend against the enemy.

The more Fu Heng looked at Hezhang's letter, the more ugly his face became. The plans made by himself and the generals in Nanchang have become empty talk.

Under the hall of the government council, two messengers from different places were lying on the ground and did not dare to move. As long as you are not stupid, you understand that the current atmosphere is not suitable for recklessness.

The generals in the hall, sitting or standing, looked at Fu Heng's solemn face, and they all felt heavy.

Suddenly, Fu Heng's eyes glanced at the generals in the hall slightly. I saw that his originally solemn face suddenly relaxed with the letter in his hand.

"Okay, don't worry. General Hezhang has already said in the letter that everything can be controlled. Although this thief claims to be 150,000, there are actually more than 20,000 people. At the same time, there are only a few thousand people who can fight against thieves. The rest are all mud legs who have just put down their hoes, not knowing fear. Fu Heng said with confidence on his face, looking not worried at all.

"That's not all. At this point, the anti-thieves actually fought back in two ways. It's really looking for death. Haha..."Fu Heng said and laughed.

"What the general said is very true, this thief is too arrogant, and he will not be the opponent of my Qing Dynasty soldiers after all..."

The generals in the hall seemed to be infected by Fu Heng's optimism, and they all echoed it.

Fu Heng looked at the two messengers who were still kneeling on the ground at this time, and said with a rare kindness: "You two get up!" I've been glad you've been there along the way. Get a good rest down there. ”

"Huh... Minion (small): Thank you for the grace of the general. Hearing Fu Heng's words, the two messengers breathed a sigh of relief. Hurriedly kowtowed, and bowed his head again.

When the two messengers got up and were about to leave, the guards outside the gate of the government hall came in again to report: "Report, report to General Pingnan, there is an urgent report from Jingzhou for eight hundred miles." ”

"Jingzhou? Could it be that Shang Jiabao sent someone to find help again? Fu Heng was suspicious in his heart.

Fu Heng had already made up his plan to "encircle Wei and save Zhao", so naturally he would no longer receive a request for help from Shang Jiabao. After all, receiving a request for help and not sending troops to rescue it is against the most basic morality after all, and it will inevitably be criticized by the imperial court in the future.

However, the guards had already said in public that it was an eight-hundred-mile rush from Jingzhou. If you refuse to answer, you don't know what else will have to be passed out in the mouths of the generals in this full house.

If Shang Jia couldn't stop the attack of the thief, he was killed by the thief. Even if he is favored by the Holy Lord, he will inevitably be sinned, and he will also offend the people of Shang Jiabao's family.

"It's really not good, when the time comes, I'll divide thousands of soldiers and horses to Jingzhou to break the siege and take a look! In this way, it is easy to shut up the mouths of the people. After Fu Heng had a thought in his heart, he immediately instructed the guards who came in to report, "Bring him in." ”

"Hey, the minion takes the order." The guards bowed down again and went out.

Although the messengers from Jiangxi and Fujian also wanted to stay and listen to the information on Jingzhou. However, the atmosphere in the entire chamber was very quiet at this time. Feeling the inferiority of their positions, the two had no choice but to follow the guards who came in.

The two of them also knew that if they didn't know how to be interesting and provoked anyone in this hall, they would cut themselves down, and no one would reason for them.

After a while, another messenger came in from the door of the hall, knelt down in front of Fu Heng and shouted: "Report to General Pingnan, Jingzhou's 800 miles of military situation is urgent." ”

I saw the messenger raise the military information in his hand as he spoke, higher than the top of his head.

When Fu Heng received the intelligence letter and checked the seal, he found that it was not Shang Jiabao's seal.

"What's going on? Could it be Shang Jiabao's request for help? Fu Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. However, when Fu Heng came back to his senses and looked at the brief content of the letter, he saw that his breathing was unnaturally faster.

In April, the weather has warmed up. But the temperature in Nanchang is definitely not hot. But Fu Heng felt that his back was already sweating at the moment, and he felt a little cold.

Su Yunting on the side looked at Fu Heng who was sitting on the main seat, with a more dignified look than the one who had just received the military information from Fujian. Even Fu Heng didn't know that there was sweat on his forehead.

Su Yunting had been following Fu Heng for several years, but he had never seen Fu Heng look like this. Such a scene made Su Yunting's heart not anxious.

Suddenly, Fu Heng stood up. The hands that had been holding the paper tightly seemed to have lost their strength, and let the military intelligence paper fall.

Fu Heng just now could still speak to the people from Fujian with a smile. At this moment, his face was indeed full of surprise, and even some fear at the kneeling messenger and asked, "Do you know the specific situation in Jingzhou?" Was General Shang really martyred? Where is the thief at this time? ”
