In the early morning of the second day, nearly 1,000 people including Xie Lin, Qian Zheng, and Mu Chun hurriedly left the city and headed south.

Yu Zhilong temporarily stayed in Linqu to continue to deal with all kinds of things, appease the people, distribute pensions, repair houses, etc., especially the soldiers and civilians who died in this battle this time, just the burial, holding a ceremony is a very energy-consuming thing, not to mention that he has to preside over the funeral of the big leader Liu Zhengfeng, Yu Zhilong in front of his spiritual throne but when all living beings shed many heroic tears, even Qu Bo and other old departments were infected by his grief, but Xia Houen and Wan Jinhai were secretly surprised in their hearts, this kid is playing with true feelings?

Yu Zhilong specially repaired a tall tomb for Liu Zhengfeng and his wife, erected a monument and turned left, asked Tian Lie to write, and then erected stone horses and stone turtles, planted pines and cypresses all over the place, and summoned monks to practice for two days.

Fortunately, all the miscellaneous things were sponsored by Cheng Shilin and Fang Xue, and Yu Zhilong still focused on the rectification of the army.

Yu Zhilong was in full swing on Linqu's side, and he became more and more eager to hope that Zhao Shi could send news about the enemy situation around Yishui, and looked forward to Xie Lin, Qian Zheng and others being able to meet Zhao Shi and Wu Side in Yishui as soon as possible. It is imperative to completely stabilize this back road to the south as soon as possible.

Now that there is no restraint from Liu Zhengfeng, Wan Jinhai, Xia Houen, Qu Bo and others are at least willing to join the crowd on the surface, the strength of the Jing'an army has risen sharply, and Yu Zhilong has another five or six thousand soldiers who can fight, and he has the strength to fight again. Seeing that the dilapidated camp outside the city was gradually repaired and restored to life, the heavy pressure that had accumulated in Zhilong's heart finally gradually subsided.

It's a pity that there are many good things, Yu Zhilong's joy lasted less than a day, and on the third day, before dawn, the two cavalry envoys in the south galloped into Linqu County. After the guards stopped him for questioning, he immediately led him to Zhilong.

"What? Yishui City is lost! When did this happen? What about Wu Side? What about Ishizawa? Who is the enemy? How many soldiers and horses are there? Like a thunderbolt from the sky, this news hit Yu Zhilong almost fell, only two or three days before and after, the battle situation changed suddenly, and Ren Yu Zhilong paid great attention to his appearance in front of the army and couldn't help but be shocked. His body shook slightly, barely steady, and a series of questions blurted out.

"My lord, the small one is that General Wu ordered him to return from Yishui City immediately that night, and General Wu didn't have time to write military documents at all, just ordered the small to pass on the message. Qingfeng Village in the city suddenly changed the hexagram, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of our army, separate attacks, our army was already small, caught off guard, the loss was quite large, General Wu had no choice, had to lead the army to kill a bloody road, out of the city to avoid temporarily! When the small one came, Shi Zebo and other strongmen continued to chase and kill, and General Wu ordered the small one to return immediately and send a large army to help! ”

Yu Zhilong returned to Linqu and forced back the Yidu Yuan army, so he sent the military document of the battle situation to Yishui, calculated according to the footsteps, Yu Zhilong judged that Wu Side should have received the information at this time. It's a pity that Zhao Shi soon set off to Daju County, and he shouldn't know about Linqu yet.

Due to the unquiet journey, the messengers between the two sides have been paying attention to concealing their identities and whereabouts, and the paths they have taken may be different, and it is normal that they have not met on the way.

Zhao Shi quickly continued to move forward and killed Benju County, and Yu Zhilong's letter was received by Wu Side, who stayed behind.

But then Wu Side lost Yishui, he was annoyed in his heart, Zhao Shi left him not many soldiers and horses, and he was carelessly attacked by Shi Zebo and suffered a lot of losses, so he had to fall all the way out of the city to survive.

Out of the city, Wu Side immediately ordered two messengers to go to Linqu for help, and chase Zhao Shi in the direction of Juxian, explaining the Yishui incident and asking him to prepare early. After leaving the city, Wu Side was originally going north, but Shi Zebo had already ambushed in the north, and Wu Side had to deliberately lead the pursuers behind to ensure the safety of the messenger, so he chose a small road and ran to the east.

The messenger returning to the north met Xie Lin, Qian Zheng, and Mu Chun on the way, and after briefly explaining the purpose, the three of them were shocked, and immediately asked the envoy to escort him, change horses and return to Linqu quickly. Xie Lin and his entourage were stationed on the spot and waited for Yu Zhilong's military order.

Mu Chun suggested that he lead a group to rush to Yishui first, so as to support Wu Side, but Qian Zheng gave up after a little consideration, they didn't have many soldiers and horses, and half of them still surrendered their troops, so they went before, even if they converged with Wu Side, the military strength was still weak, and it was not helpful compared to Shi Zebo.

What's more, they are all foot soldiers, going all the way for at least a day, and Wu Sheng, Pang Biao and others have already left Linqu, and they don't know where they are now and what their plans are. If you know about the Yishui Incident, if you return to Linqu to harass, your party will be stuck on the road, and it can also play a role in resisting.

Seeing that Qian was thoughtful, Xie Lin and Mu Chun were impressed, although Xie Lin was the first this time, he was still a layman for the military, so he naturally obeyed. Therefore, he chose to be stationed at a high place on the spot, waited for Yu Zhilong's order, and sent a sentry to Yishui to investigate.

Yu Zhilong hurriedly paced in the hall, going back and forth several times, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

What would have been a good situation suddenly became unmanageable. Why did Shi Zebo suddenly change his hexagram, Yu Zhilong couldn't understand, this cooperation was originally a win-win situation, if Zhao Shi could get another result, Yu Zhilong was still thinking about whether he could continue to cooperate in the future.

Now that Yishui City has missed, Zhao Shi has become a lonely army, and it is difficult to echo each other, if Zhao Shi wins Ju County, it is okay, in case of defeat, the Jing'an army is intercepted by Shi Zebo, and the Yuan army around it is coming again, and Zhao Shi is in danger!

Just when Yu Zhilong was thinking irritablely, Wan Jinhai, Qu Bo, Xia Houen, Yu Shichang, Ji Xiancheng, Mingxiong and others who received the news of the meeting rushed to the county government one after another.

Yu Zhilong briefly said the Yishui matter, and Wan Jinhai was shocked and angry: "Shi Zebo, this bird, how can he cross the river and tear down the bridge so quickly!" What a white-eyed wolf that can't be raised! Don't worry about adults, a certain is willing to lead the army to take Yishui, and see if he doesn't beat his balls! ”

Mingxiong got up and said: "General Wu is weak, he has to abandon the city and flee to the east, and General Shi is hanging alone, the situation is unclear, if things are not coordinated, there is no rescue outside the army, and there is no way to retreat inside, his subordinates think that they should quickly send an army to take Yishui City again!" ”

The rest of the people also rose up, and everyone understood that Yu Zhilong and the others had made so much effort and took risks to open up the road to the south, and they had to occupy Yishui City, and the Jing'an army turned the corner. Unexpectedly, Yishui City was lost to Shi Zebo, and this back road was blocked again, how could everyone be willing?

Moreover, the two families worked together to fight the yuan, and this capture was given to Qingfeng Zhai but it was a lot, and there was no debt to him, the generals discussed it privately with their subordinates, and everyone knew more or less about the current predicament of Qingfeng Village, and these seizures were tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow.

Although the big guys are all robbers and thieves in the eyes of the Yuan Court, Jing'an Jun feels better about himself, but black eats black, and does not pay attention to the morality of the rivers and lakes, Shi Zebo is doing it too fast!

Ji Xiancheng was steady, groaned slightly, and waited for everyone to gradually quiet down: "The matter of Yishui is far away from a hundred miles, and I don't know the cause, my subordinates thought that if Shi Zebo had premeditated, he would not have suddenly attacked today, presumably there must be another reason." No matter what Shi Zebo thinks, now that he has turned his face, his subordinates think it is better to make preparations with both hands. The Yidu Tartars are newly defeated, there should be no action in the short term, and the men and horses of the two generals Qian and Mu are not enough to deal with it, so it is better to urgently transfer an army south to Yishui, or peace or war needs to be decided immediately, and it must not be delayed. ”

Ji Xiancheng proposed a strategy for peace and war, and the generals in the hall started to think about it.

A few days ago, the generals worked hard to defend the city, although they finally succeeded, but the losses of the various departments were quite large, if it were not for the help of Zhilong Starry Night, the heavy damage was also the first, and the Yidu Yuan army had to return with a feather, and everyone had a chance to live. However, the results of the various divisions are few, and most of the dead and wounded soldiers of the Yuan army during the siege of the city are recovered by it, and the results cannot be distinguished, confirmed, coupled with the reorganization of the various departments after the war, and the subdivision of the results of the final divisions is even more difficult to count. After in-depth understanding, Wan Jinhai, Qu Bo and others all felt that the Jing'an Army's combat merit statistics method was the most fair, and the promotion of soldiers was almost based on personal combat merits, so everyone was thinking about being more brilliant in future battles.

Now that Yishui City has changed, it is a good opportunity for the generals to make meritorious contributions, and the generals will take the city, and the merits are the most obvious, and this opportunity should be grasped well!

Yu Zhilong saw that the generals had asked for battle, and he was happy in his heart, especially Wan Jinhai and others were so active, indicating that these people had gradually recognized the system of the Jing'an Army, and his position as the big leader was solid.

After thinking about it carefully, Yu Zhilong finally decided to go to Yishui City in person, although Shi Zebo turned his back, if he went by himself, maybe it would be the best to turn the war into a jade silk! The weight of the others is insufficient, and if Shi Zebo puts forward any embarrassing conditions, I am afraid that he will not be able to reply for a while, and Shi Zebo will have another wave there; Second, Yishui City is related to the retreat of the Jing'an Army, and it involves the safety of the future, and it is by no means a matter of idleness, Yu Zhilong is finally relieved, he goes in person, he understands a lot of news, and he can make a decision on the spot; The crisis of Linqu City has been solved, there are generals to guard it, Ji Xiancheng is handsome, and Yu Zhilong is also relieved.

"This goes to Yishui, it is best not to use the sword soldiers, Linqu has all of you to guard, I am very relieved, General Shi is lonely outside, the head and tail can not be taken care of, the soldiers are taboo, I don't go in person, sit and wait for the news, my heart is uneasy! This time, I'm going to go in person. Xie Lin, Qian Zheng, and Mu Chun are already on the road, and I will tune another wave to accompany them. "Yu Zhilong has a plan and is sure of the railway.

Yu Shichang saw that his voice fell, and he didn't mention himself, so he immediately went out to ask for battle.

"I have already walked on the southbound road, and I am willing to go with General Fei!" It is impossible for this Yidu Yuan army to come in the near future, and Yu Shichang does not want to waste time here, so it is naturally good if he can go south to make contributions.

Yu Zhilong secretly thought about it, if others asked for war, he would be rejected by eight achievements, Yu Shichang's identity was special, and the Xin family owed him a little because of his own burial, so he nodded: "With the Shichang brothers, I have more confidence in my heart." Then he packed up his horses and set off with General Qu Bo in half an hour. Captain Tong, you prepare a baggage to go together! ”

Tong Xiaowei is Tong Kui, the noble deputy, and now he is the position of school captain.

Tong Kui is similar to noble, he is a silent person, but he has instructions, he only does things with all his heart, and never takes the initiative to ask for credit. At that moment, Tong Kui promised, and seeing that Yu Zhilong had no more orders, he retreated with Gao Shang and discussed how to divide the troops to prepare for the baggage.

Ji Xiancheng and others came out of the hall one after another, and said in front of him: "The former Qingfeng Zhai Weibao stayed in the Han army camp at Sanchakou, and in addition to hundreds of yuan prisoners in the camp, there were also hundreds of soldiers. Wu Sheng and the others went ahead for two more days, calculating the footsteps, and now they should be halfway back to the village. If Wu Sheng and the others knew about Yishui Shi Zebo, I was afraid that they would have the heart to deal with me! Adults are here, it's better to bring more people and horses! ”

Yu Zhilong shook his head and said helplessly: "Although the possibility of the Yidu Yuan Army coming to attack in the near future is small, it can't be guarded against. If there are fewer people left behind in Linqu, I am afraid that the city will be lost. After all, this is the place of our inheritance, and it is like losing an arm! ”

"In fact, the duty of staying here is not lighter than going south, our army suffered great losses in the early stage, and the various departments still need to be supplemented and repaired, and the Han army brought back needs to be comforted and drilled, the city is in urgent need of repair, and everything is urgent and complicated, your burden is not light!" Yu Zhilong sat down and said slowly.

Ji Xiancheng was moved in his heart, and Shi Li said: "My lord is always stubborn and stubborn, and he is in front of the battle, a certain general is a subordinate, but he can't guard the side, and his subordinates are lost!" ”

"You and I are one, sharing honor and disgrace, how can you say this?" Yu Zhilong comforted, "It's just that this Linqu matter is going to be difficult for you anymore!" ”

Yu Zhilong originally left a back hand, the original intention was to use the hand of the Yuan army to take the opportunity to get rid of Liu Zhengfeng, but during the loss of the Xin family, there will be a regret, if Yu Shichang and Yu Lan know, Yu Zhilong now does not know how to deal with it. Therefore, in case these two people know, Ji Xiancheng will also be bitten to death in the future because of his own ineffective protection, and it is definitely not the reason for Yu Zhilong's arrangement.

In fact, it was planned at the beginning, Yu Zhilong and others were indeed negligent Liu Qi, and the Yuan army had already intended to detain military dependents as hostages, so they were able to get their hands on it, if it weren't for Huang Er, Guo Fengrong and others to rescue them in time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Qingfeng Village acts like this, and my calculation should be a whim or a change in things. Wu Sidee is brave, but he is rigid and straight, less flexible, and Brother Shi has no choice but to stay in Yishui. Fortunately, the news came successfully, and there was still a chance to remedy it, if Ishizawa Potken cooperated, of course, it would be best, if I was obsessed, I really thought I was afraid of him? Yu Zhilong's voice turned sharp.

Ji Xiancheng said: "There are still hundreds of cavalry in the city, and thousands of war horses. ”

Tang Wuwei was annihilated, captured his war horses, pulled a lot of horses, plus Wan Jinhai and other scattered cavalry there were also hundreds. At the beginning, the Yuan army besieged the city, and there was a shortage of food in the city, so Ji Xiancheng had to order a batch of damaged war horses to be slaughtered for food.

Although there are horses now, there are too few qualified cavalry, and Yu Zhilong has recruited foot soldiers who are good at riding horses from the whole army, and they are being reorganized into a cavalry army for standby. But if you wait until the training is basically over, it will be at least a month later. Fortunately, there are many cavalry veterans from various departments as the backbone, and in time, they may be able to form an army.

Yu Zhilong pondered for a moment and said, "That's fine, let Gou Fugui's team go with me." Depart in the afternoon. ”
