Chapter 265: The Storm Changes
It is said that the servant of the boy brother held a sword on the old bustard's neck that day, and immediately frightened the old bustard into a panic. In the end, he had to reluctantly agree to the non-sub-division request of the son-in-law, and sold Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun to the son-in-law for 5,000 taels of silver per person.
And in the end, the boy only gave the old bustard an IOU and there was no follow-up, and the old bustard was immediately fainted. The boy smiled slightly, and didn't pay attention to the old bustard, so he let a few servants behind him forcibly leave with Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun on the flower boat.
Where did the servant door on the ship dare to stop the young man, he could only watch them leave. Although Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun didn't want to leave, after all, they had their own ideas, so they naturally refused to sell themselves like this.
But they were just weak women, and how could they be against these servants? Naturally, it was honestly taken away in the end.
When the old bustard woke up, the boy had already taken Li Xiangjun and Dong Xiaowan without knowing where to go, and walked for a few hours. I saw that the old bustard's eyes were full of viciousness, and said: "This revenge will not be avenged, and the old lady will not be a person." Ah Da, Ah San. Hurry up and ask Lord Ma for your help, and ask them to send troops to search for that little bastard. Hmph, this is Nanjing, no matter who you are, you dare to embarrass your mother in Nanjing, that is to find death! ”
When the two servants next to him heard this, they hurriedly stepped forward to answer, and then took the order to walk briskly outside.
"Kitten and puppy, you two go and gather all the subordinates and start arresting!"
The old bustard said that, and then two more servants walked over, took the order, and hurried out.
"Mom is already dark now, even if that person leaves with Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun, he will definitely not be able to go far, why don't my mother go back and rest for the night first. Do you care about the name? A woman of flowers walked up to the bustard and whispered.
Compared with Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun, this woman is simply a heaven and an earth in terms of appearance. One Shih Tzu, one Shih Tzu. She naturally hoped that Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun would leave this Qinglou, otherwise she would not be able to compete with the two at all.
The old bustard is angry at this time, where will he listen to her? Then he said angrily: "You little slut, the old lady has lost two cash trees, and the silver has flown away, and you little slut even let the old lady go back to sleep and not chase after you." What the hell is Ann thinking? ”
Hearing the bustard's angry words, a trace of poison flashed in the woman's eyes, but it was fleeting and let others see it. said on his lips: "Mom is wrong, where can the slave family think like this?" It's just to see that my mother is tired, so I let my mother rest for a while. Where does the slave family dare to have ghost thoughts? ”
Hearing the woman's words, the old bustard also relieved himself, so he didn't care, and he didn't have the vicious words just now, and said, "You go back with your sisters, the old lady has her own ideas." Then the old bustard did not say anything more, and led his men outside.
On the second day, the old bustard, who had been busy all night, still didn't find where the boy was, and searched the entire city of Nanjing, but there was no clue at all. At the same time, the garrison of Nanjing also began to search for the whole city. But he still didn't find a little, which made the old bustard wonder very much, where could he run away overnight with two delicate girls?
Not to mention the things in Nanjing, but to say that when Liu Xia was hiding, he got a letter from Bian Yujing from Luoyang, which stated the situation in Luoyang. It's really dangerous. Liu Xia couldn't help but worry, Luoyang is his base camp, if something happens to Luoyang, then the sky is really falling, Liu Xia can't help but blame himself, there is such a timed ** around him, and he didn't find it. Liu Xia secretly swore that he would definitely break the body of the rebel into thousands of pieces and never tolerate it.
At the same time, he ordered Li Gu, the commander of the Eagle Yangwei, to lead the Ying Yangwei men and horses to disguise themselves as ordinary farmers, sneak into Luoyang City, find Meng Yu, and cooperate with his actions. All the rebels will be drawn out, and then they will be arrested.
The guards took the secret order, and quickly marched towards the station of Ying Yangwei, and the secret order written by Liu Xia in this edict was not outspoken, but used secret language. Liu Xia now doesn't know who is loyal and who is a thief, so the letter is encrypted to prevent the thief from detecting and getting the news.
If you simply get a secret letter, you can't know what is written on it. Because all the letters were written in Arabic numerals. The numbers are combined into a group, each corresponding to a Chinese character. As for which Chinese character corresponds to, it is another consideration. Where in Eagle Yangwei there is a special code book, which records the passwords used, which can be used as a way to crack.
Of course, in order to prevent being cracked, Liu Xia's code book is also changed from time to time.
After Liu Xia secretly left Pingxiang, Na Haoge sent his men and horses to Jinan Mansion, which was an important place for the Qing army, which not only stored a large amount of armament, but also a large amount of grain and grass. This time, Haoge went to get 200 artillery pieces and a large number of shells, all of which were captured by the Ming Dynasty before, but because the Qing army did not like firearms, they were stored in Jinan Mansion and not used.
With Nahauge's order, Jinan Mansion quickly transferred 200 artillery pieces, as well as a large number of shells. Transported to the giant deer. Within a few days, all the artillery had arrived in the city of Julu.
Soon, the scouts of the Pingbei Army reported these things to Liu Xia.
Liu Xia frowned and thought, "This Haoge has made so many cannons, I'm afraid he wants to use them to resist the artillery above the city of Naping Township." Hauge did not know that the king's artillery was an improved version of the artillery, and that it was more powerful than ordinary artillery. He must have thought that the king's artillery was inferior to his. After all, the steel cannon was much smaller than the red-coat cannon. Touching what he thought might have smiled, he smiled a lot. ”
Thinking of this, Liu Xia couldn't help but show a sneer, since Haoge was willing to find death, then let the artillery above the city kill it first. When their morale drops, they will go and kill them yourself.
In Julu City, Hauge learned that two hundred artillery pieces had arrived, and his face suddenly showed joy, and he went out of the city to greet him in person. I saw that the mighty steel beasts came into Hauge's eyes. I couldn't help but feel arrogant, it was okay to sweep Pingxiang, and I waved my hand when I killed Liu Xia.
"Into town! Today, the king is happy and wants to reward everyone who went to Jinan Mansion this time! When the time comes to raze that flat township to the ground, it will be rewarded again! ”
Haug laughed and entered the city first, followed by two hundred cannons.
When he arrived in the city, Haoge sat in the middle position, and the generals on the left and right sat in turn, Haoge's face was full of red light, full of excitement, and said: "Aobai, is there any news about Liu Xia these days?" ”
Ao Baibai said: "Back to the prince, my subordinates ordered people to monitor Liu Xia's whereabouts at all times. According to the spies' report, after Liu Xia secretly left Naping Township, he sneaked all the way to the sparsely populated place, and now he may have reached the boundary of Naruzhou Prefecture. ”
After hearing this, Haoge said happily: "Okay, now that Liu Xia is gone, Pingxiang will be a lonely city." The garrisons of the prefectures and counties on the left and right were simply unable to resist the siege of our army. This time, he will definitely be able to break through the tiger prison and go directly to Luoyang. By the way, how is the [Operation Extinction] ready now? ”
At this time, another person who looked like a literati came out, bowed to Na Haoge, and said: "Returning to the prince, the [Desperate Operation] and in progress, according to the order of the regent, the people of Luoyang are ready, just waiting for an order, and then start to act." ”
Haoge suddenly had a cold face, and said calmly: "Hmph, Liu Xia!" This king wants to see how you spend this time, and when you learn that the Luoyang family members have been killed, it will be up to you at that time! Hahaha, hahaha"
Before Hauge could finish laughing, suddenly there was a sound of smashing footsteps outside, accompanied by shouts, only to hear: "Urgent! Urgent! ”
In a few moments, the messenger had arrived in the house and handed a sealed letter to Hauge, who frowned.
