"Father, you have poisoned so many people, you are simply killing yourself!" Li Fan, the head of the Shuzhou Soldiers and Horses, glared at his father Liu Gaochang almost in despair.

Li Fan's original surname was Liu, and after joining the Li family army incognito, he was personally given the surname Li by Li Zhongyi in the lecture hall.

"Hmph, Li Thief is easy to be trapped in Shu, which is a great time for my generation to raise righteousness. If you don't poison these guys, how can you and I have a chance to do justice? Liu Gaochang raised his hand and pointed to the layers of corpses on the ground, "These guys are all diehards, they don't die, you and my father and son's heads are about to move." ”

Liu Gaochang said proudly: "The big people in Beijing said that the world has been suffering for a long time!" As long as Shuzhou's uprising is successful, people all over the world will respond, and great things can be done! ”

Li Fan raised his hand and pointed at Liu Gaochang, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, do you know the serious consequences of the so-called righteousness? ”

Liu Gaochang is just a rich man, how does he know that the Li Jiajun, that is, the official army of the imperial court, is powerful?

"My son, I am not stupid for my father, they said, if you are the first to raise righteousness, you will definitely be crowned king and worship in the future." Liu Gaochang raised his chin and said sharply, "My son, the matter has come to this, why do you need to say more?" ”

Li Fan looked at the corpses all over the ground, and couldn't help shouting in despair: "Come on, since you gave birth to me, my life should be returned to your Liu family." ”

Liu Gaochang glared at Li Fan angrily: "Your books have all been read in the dog's stomach?" Did Master teach you to disobey your father? ”

Perhaps perceiving Li Fan's tears, Liu Gaochang slowed down his expression and said softly: "My son, you are not only my own son, but also my Liu family's thousands of miles of horses. ”

Li Fan wiped the tears on his face and said hatefully: "My lord, you are the one who caused my Liu family to exterminate the clan." ”

"Ridiculous, how can it be justified?" Liu Gaochang was angry, pointed at Li Fan's nose and scolded, "Don't forget, our Liu family used to have 30,000 acres of fertile land, what you eat and wear, which one is not the money and grain dug out of the ground?" Now, the whole family only has 500 acres of land, and I will avenge the revenge of taking the property! ”

"Father, the teacher treats the child well!" Li Fan closed his eyes in pain, tears welling up, "My lord, you have fallen for them." If the child is not mistaken, the entire official army of Lianghuai Road, once they learn the news, will definitely attack the nest. ”

"Afraid of what? They said that as long as we can hold out for ten days and a half, reinforcements will arrive. Liu Gaochang confidently taught his son, "Don't talk so much nonsense, hurry up and give an order to put our people into the city." ”

"My lord, it's useless, our Liu family is finished."

As a middle-level general of the imperial army, Li Fan, the head of the Shuzhou Soldiers and Horses, really knows the power of the imperial officers and soldiers very well.

"Forget it, it's come to this, what's the point of talking more? My son, success or failure is here, rather than living, it is better to go out and fight. Liu Gaochang realized that the taste was wrong, however, there was no turning back from the bow.

The entire hall was full of officers who had been poisoned to death and were stationed in Shuzhou, which also announced that the Liu family father and son had no way out!

Although Liu Gaochang had already sensed that something was wrong, however, there was indeed no turning back from the bow, no matter how bad the situation was, he could only hold on to it now.

"I don't need to panic, the squires inside and outside Shuzhou City have gathered three thousand people who dare to fight. Based on these people, as long as the people in the city are gathered, the old man expects that he will be able to hold Shuzhou. Liu Gaochang proudly painted a beautiful blueprint.

However, Li Fan knew in his heart that Liu Heyang, the general of the expedition to the east who was in Yangzhou, had at least fifty or more artillery pieces in his hands.

The power of using artillery to attack the city may not be clear to others, but Li Fan, who is the head of Shuzhou's soldiers and horses, is impossible not to understand.

In other words, under the siege of the imperial court, Shuzhou will definitely not be able to hold it. The difference is just that if you keep it for half a day or two days, this Shuzhou city will always fall quickly.

Liu Gaochang carried Li Fan behind his back and secretly poisoned the officers of the city who came to participate in the military meeting, and the corpses all over the ground in front of him can only prove one problem: such a deep feud in the sea of blood, there is no possibility of resolving it!

"Father, you bring enough money and lead your younger brother to the south, the farther you go, the better, it is best to go straight down the river, all the way to the sea, and then turn to the south." Li Fan wiped the sweat from his face, forced himself to calm down, and then made the most correct proposal.

There are corpses all over the ground, and they are all officers from the martial arts hall, and they are all students of today. With such a deep hatred, if you don't see Li Fan's head, and if you don't destroy the Liu family, how can you give up now?

Never give up any robe, Li Zhongyi said so, and he has always done so.

In addition, Li Fan is an out-and-out martial arts student, and he is now a righteous student.

Li Fan, a "good" student, killed so many students today, and rebelled. Even if you don't empathize, you know how angry you will be today?

As the saying goes, when the Son of Heaven is angry, millions of corpses will be ambushed!

Therefore, after Li Fan calmed down, he immediately realized that he couldn't go. If he leaves, their Liu family will definitely be hunted down to heaven and earth, endlessly, endlessly.

Li Fan was originally the head of Shuzhou's soldiers and horses, and he naturally knew very well that with the reality of strict inspection of foreign household registration in various places, hiding anywhere in the country was a dead end.

Liu Gaochang looked at Li Fan carefully, and suddenly sighed: "I'm not going anywhere, I'll accompany you, our father and son will live together, and die together." As for your brother, you can do what you say, and leave immediately, and go as far as possible. ”

"If there is a case, it can be regarded as a post-stay for our old Liu family." Liu Gaochang's words made Li Fan have mixed feelings, and for a while, he was stupid on the spot.

Jiangnan, Jianwu Army, Twenty miles away from the Changshi Pavilion.

"All of them!"

"Stand upright!"

"Look to the right!"

"Take a break!"

Ye Xiang, the former captain of the imperial forbidden army and the current pavilion, stood in front of the entire queue in full uniform, and shouted: "Report the number!" ”

"One, two, three, five...... Ten...... One hundred and thirty-one ......"

"Yu Tingzheng, Benting Township Army, should be one hundred and thirty-one people, but it is one hundred and thirty-one people, please instruct."

"According to the military order of the county inspection envoy, the Benting Township Army must assemble in the camp outside the north gate of the county seat before dawn tomorrow, and there must be no mistake." Muramasa Ye Xiang nodded with satisfaction, and read out loudly the military orders issued above.

"Whoa!" The soldiers of the township army who have undergone formal training responded in unison, without the slightest noise.

Ye Xiang smiled with satisfaction, the hard training in the past few years seems to have not been wasted, and the soldiers of the township army have changed from unorganized, undisciplined and uneducated villagers to well-trained and literate elite soldiers.

"All of them, listen to my commands, gun on the shoulder, turn to the right, and walk in unison!"

With an order, Ye Xiang led his soldiers and embarked on the road to the county seat.

It's just that what Ye Xiang didn't expect was that in the entire Jiangnan region, the township soldiers of various villages gathered in their respective designated areas under the command of the military order.

If someone floats in the air and looks down on the entire land of Jiangnan and Lianghuai, then he will be surprised to find that the official roads of the entire Jiangnan and Lianghuai Road are full of soldiers carrying guns and bows.

"Report, a large number of horse soldiers were found outside the city......"

When the spies reported the latest military situation in a trembling voice, Li Fan was not too surprised, because he knew that there was an independent cavalry unit among the soldiers and horses on the Lianghuai Road.

Now, now that the cavalry of the imperial court has arrived outside the city, it is conceivable that Liu Heyang must be on the way to Shuzhou.

Not only that, Li Fan can also imagine that the township troops on Lianghuai Road have also been mobilized, right?

Li Fan has followed Liu Heyang for many years, and knows Liu Heyang's cautious combat habits in using troops, and now the cavalry came first, definitely to find out the situation outside Shuzhou, so as not to fall into Li Fan's ambush by the imperial army.

Once, Li Fan looked at the military sand table and asked himself, in the face of the dangerous situation of Liu Heyang's attack, is there a chance to turn defeat into victory?

However, after careful consideration, Li Fan was completely desperate. He knew very well in his heart that as long as Liu Heyang came, the fifth battalion of the cavalry army would definitely be the first to arrive in Shuzhou, and he would have a clear understanding of the situation outside Shuzhou.

Li Fan's expectation was good, among the soldiers and horses belonging to the Lianghuai Road, there were a total of 3,000 cavalry, and the official number was the Fifth Battalion of the Cavalry Army, and its commander was Qin Jian, an old subordinate of Li Yong, a party member.

When Liu Heyang, the general of Zhengdong, learned the news of the rebellion in Shuzhou, he immediately called Qin Jian and ordered him to lead his troops and horses to rush outside Shuzhou within two days.

Qin Jian was ordered to closely monitor the movements in Shuzhou and not to attack the city without authorization.

At this moment, Qin Jian had already arrived at Majiawa Village, which was less than ten miles away from Shuzhou, and the soldiers of the 1,000-man team and the 2,000-man team had already spilled out, leaving only a complete 3,000-man team at hand.

"The envoy of the capital, the 1,000-man team sent people back, and they captured a few sentry spies of the Shuzhou rebels."

"Oh, is there a confession?" Qin Jian raised his chin and stared at the visitor with blazing eyes.

The person who came clenched his fists and arched his hands and said: "Those sentry spies are all soft bones, and they have already confessed before they can use the means." ”

Qin Jian narrowed his eyes, touched his chin and thought about it, and couldn't help sneering: "Li Fan and I are also old acquaintances, and he is very familiar with the combat methods of our army, so these sentry spies may be the 'big gifts' he deliberately gave us." ”

Before coming to Shuzhou this time, Liu Heyang repeatedly told him that no matter what the situation was inside and outside Shuzhou City, Qin Jian was not allowed to act rashly, and only needed to stare at the movements of the large army in Shuzhou City, which was a great achievement.

To be honest, Qin Jian didn't think that Liu Heyang had made many moves. The core of this counterinsurgency is not to eliminate how many rebels there are, but to check everyone inside and outside Shuzhou City.

Objectively speaking, the rebellion of Shuzhou was no less than a major earthquake for the officials and troops of the entire empire.

How to avoid the recurrence of the Shuzhou rebellion is a question worth pondering for a qualified middle and senior officer.
