Chapter 285: Out of the City
Father-in-law Yu led the group behind him out of the room with a black face, and the forbidden army and Taicheng guards stationed outside have already controlled all the Qinglou ** fleeing everywhere, but in the center of the city, it is the residence of King De, and the people in the city who come and go pay attention to it all the time, the commotion just now has attracted the attention of the surrounding people, and King De has taken a few people to gallop wildly, and go away, no matter how you look at it, it is a thing that attracts people's attention.
Yu Gonggong stared at the street downstairs by the railing, and then beckoned an officer next to him to come and asked:
"Where's the prince?"
The officer replied:
"I went to the east gate."
Hearing this, the fish father-in-law scolded:
"Why did he go to the east gate when he was going to the south gate? Send someone to chase him back! ”
After the officer sent someone down, Father-in-law Yu asked again:
"What's the matter with pedestrians on the street?"
The officer replied:
"Just now there was a lot of shouting inside and outside the house, which attracted pedestrians."
Father-in-law Yu asked again:
"So what did the people on the street hear?"
"This ......" the officer buried his head in, unable to answer.
Father-in-law Yu glanced at the officer with slanted eyes and scolded:
"Say whatever you want, dumb or not?"
When the officer saw that Father-in-law Yu was angry, he was so frightened that he was sweating profusely, and replied hesitantly:
"There was such a big movement just now, and everyone in the house ran out......
It became clear what the officer meant when he replied. It was so loud just now, it was obvious what people on the street would hear, and Grandpa Yu just had luck in his heart, wanting to see if people outside had heard anything that shouldn't have been heard, and now it seems that it is too late.
Father-in-law Yu waved his hand to signal the officer to step back, and Qiu Xiaozhi stepped forward at this time and said:
"Father-in-law, the people in the city have noticed the movement of the Beijing army, and we need to act quickly."
Grandpa Yu nodded silently and took the lead to walk downstairs, the sergeant downstairs had already prepared the horses for Grandpa Yu and them, while the others were busy packing and preparing to go.
After getting on the horse, the group followed behind the Yu Gonggong, and hurried to the south gate of the city, most of the people on the street were still drinking and carnivaling under the influence of King De's order, but some people had already begun to look at the soldiers who had withdrawn from the street and pointed, and exchanged their heads and ears, but fortunately, no one had come out to stop the Beijing army, and no one had followed to get up and flee.
Father-in-law Yu thought that there would be no one to stop him from leaving the city, but when he was about to lead his team out of the city, he saw several officials wearing official robes leading a number of officials waiting at the south gate.
The group was galloping on their horses, and suddenly they were blocked in their way, so they had to rein in their horses violently, and it took a lot of effort for everyone to stop.
When the official who took the lead saw Father-in-law Yu coming, he didn't wait for anyone to stop, so he bowed his hand and said:
"Dare to ask Father-in-law Yu where is this going?"
Father-in-law Yu tightened the reins in his hand hard, turned around and said coldly to the official in front of him:
"Out of town."
When the official in front of the horse heard this, he did not give in and said:
"If my father-in-law is out of the city, why do you want to transfer all the defenders in the city?"
玉公公 says:
"That's not the defenders, that's the Jing army I brought, I can transfer them wherever I want, does Lord Wu have any right to control my troops?"
Hearing this, Master Wu in front of the horse raised his head and said:
"My father-in-law came to Luzhou to suppress bandits, these days I have poured all my savings in the city to provide the army with food, drink and fun, and I have to listen to the orders of King De Putian Tongqing, open the city gate at night, and let the people in the city eat and drink for free, just to let my father-in-law's Beijing army eat and drink enough to kill the thieves, and now my father-in-law is going to leave the city without saying a word, how can I not ask?"
Although Lord Wu's words were fierce, he was righteous, although he was as fierce as a fish, his father-in-law also knew that he was wrong, and he lost three points first.
Father-in-law Yu took a breath and replied:
"I also have military affairs, so I have to mobilize the army, and Lord Wu is a parent officer, just take care of the city."
When Master Wu heard this, he replied:
"Just because I am a parent, I must be responsible for the lives of the people in the city, my father-in-law is now leading the team to flee, what should I do in this Luzhou City? The hundreds of thousands of thieves have just broken Shouchun, and now only my father-in-law is left in Jiangbei to fight. “
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu raised his eyebrows and asked:
"Where did Master Wu know about Shouchun? Have you ever been to Shouchun? “
Master Wu replied:
"The guerrillas who were patrolling outside the city have all withdrawn, and the word has spread from the sergeant's mouth, so what is there to hide from my father-in-law? Is it because I am afraid that the people of Luzhou will flee and block my father-in-law's retreat? “
Father-in-law Yu was said this, his face was really a little unbearable, and he turned around and glared at the four of them viciously, and the four of them sweated profusely and trembled their spines.
Father-in-law Yu turned his head and said:
"What do you know about military affairs, and what qualifications do you have to dictate to me? I sent troops to please the thief. “
Wu Daren pointed to:
"Father-in-law Yu understands military affairs, but what should I do with the people of Luzhou after you go up with your thirty-six plans? They're all counting on the officers and soldiers you brought! “
After saying this, Lord Wu didn't care about the right Father-in-law, turned around and brushed his sleeves away, and shouted loudly in his mouth as an answer to Father-in-law Yu:
"It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, and my father-in-law is going to go down, how can I stop it?
Since my father-in-law doesn't care about the names of the hundreds of thousands of people in the city, then I can go with peace of mind, you all go and I will guard the city by myself! “
Master Wu walked away as he spoke, no longer caring about the Yu Gonggong and his party at the gate of the city, as well as the soldiers of the Beijing army who kept going out of the city.
Father-in-law Yu was scolded by this Master Wu, his old face was red and white, and he stopped at the gate of the city holding the reins, neither entering nor leaving.
The people who followed behind Father-in-law Yu waited for a long time and didn't see Father-in-law Yu's movement, Qiu Xiaozhi immediately stepped forward and said:
"The thief Xin Tu Shouchun, there is only one army left in Jiangbei, the thief is virtuous, brave and strategic, ruthless, how can he not know the truth of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, the father-in-law will come to encircle and suppress the father-in-law one day in Jiangbei; In addition, the thieves have enough ships and ships, and it is completely possible for hundreds of thousands of thieves to move from the water, and we have difficulty going down along the thin water, and there is no sign that the river is dry and impassable, and there is no difficulty for the thieves to go south.
Now that this Lord Wu is willing to do his best for the country and die, we can take the opportunity to go east to Beijing, and please don't hesitate to my father-in-law. “
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu raised his head to the sky and sighed, and said:
"He is a scholar who knows that he is going to die, doesn't the old man have that integrity? I'm just leaving, isn't it going to make the world scold me for being a dead eunuch and not knowing loyalty and filial piety? ”
Qiu Xiaozhi heard Father-in-law's words and hurriedly replied:
"Father-in-law, loyalty has size, things have a sequence, not self-defeating and dying is just a small loyalty to win the name behind him, returning to Beijing to defend the emperor is a great loyalty, as long as the thief is willing to come, the fall of Luzhou is inevitable, if the father-in-law goes, the thief may change the route, from him out of the river, as long as the father-in-law can finally defeat the thief Kou can prove that you bear the burden of humiliation and foresight. Father-in-law, don't be brave for a while, and ruin the court's major affairs! ”
Hearing Qiu Xiaozhi say this, Father-in-law Yu turned his head, looked at Qiu Xiaozhi carefully for a long time, and his gaze almost roasted Qiu Xiaozhi's face, Father-in-law Yu said slowly:
"Qiu Xiaozhi, you want to run away with my navy and live your own life."
Qiu Wenruo, who didn't speak later, and the Tao brothers all sweated for Qiu Xiaozhi at this time, but Qiu Xiaozhi himself was not too nervous, he raised his head and looked at Father-in-law Yu, there was not the slightest wave in his eyes, he said:
"If my father-in-law thinks that I am greedy for life and afraid of death, he can leave me in Luzhou and lead the team back, but the little official still has to persuade my father-in-law to retreat eastward, only in this way can I defend the capital division and leave a chance for defeating the thieves in the future."
After Qiu Xiaozhi finished answering, he looked at Father-in-law Yu like this, the two didn't say a word, and after staring at him for a long time, Father-in-law Yu turned his head sharply, and rode his horse to the outside of the city, and the group followed.
The Beijing army in the city has been pulled out of the city one after another under the timely notice of the Yu Gonggong, although the sergeants accompanied the king of De to hunt around, exhausted, and drank all night in Luzhou last night, and now they are all colorless and swaying, but the good and bad people have been gathered,
Seeing the arrival of Father-in-law Yu, the Yijing military camp will rush forward to ask Father-in-law Yu if he is leaving, and after obtaining Father-in-law Yu's consent, the army immediately marched to the east.
The people who followed Yu Gonggong out of the city almost joined the march without stopping, but everyone was a new horse, full of horsepower, and this little distance was not difficult.
The horse Tao Zhulu and Tao Zhuhu are most concerned about Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhuhu, after joining the marching team, they kept inquiring about Lan Ziyi's whereabouts, and after hearing the voice, Yu Gonggong turned around and told the two brothers, the three of them sent someone to arrange a vehicle to go out of the city when Yu Gonggong went out of the palace.
Tao Zhutu finally breathed a sigh of relief after learning that his young master and eldest brother were safe, and then he looked at the team all the way to the east and asked:
"Where are we going? Isn't it to cross the river? ”
Qiu Wenruo replied:
"Not far from the southeast of Luzhou is the South Lake, there is a wet water in the southeast of the South Lake that leads directly to the river, I guess the water army of the Yu Gonggong is stopped in the South Lake, we are going to the South Lake."
Father-in-law Yu, who was walking in front, heard the conversation behind him and said loudly:
"Wen Ruo is right."
Then a group of tens of thousands of people silently headed east, and after a short march, they saw the pier in front of them and the endless lake.
Father-in-law Yu took everyone to the dock and stopped, there were many warships in the lake, so it was not magnificent, but if you looked closely, the lake under the boat was yellow, and it looked full of mud and sand.
Tao Zhutu dismounted and came to the shore and squatted, stretched out his hand and waved the lake and asked:
"Didn't you say that the rivers and lakes in the south were clear? Why is the sediment so heavy here? ”
Then Tao Zhutu looked back at Father-in-law Yu, wanting to hear what Father-in-law Yu said, but saw Father-in-law Yu's brows tightly knit and his expression solemn.
Father-in-law Yu called a sailor officer and asked:
"What's going on with this lake?"
The officer replied in a panic:
"The river was flooded, and the river water poured into the Susu River, and the sediment followed into the South Lake, and the lake water changed color."
