Chapter 159: Chaohu Changes
After two quarters of an hour, Wu Mo, who had been summoned, hurriedly came.
He is a civilian and does not go on the field to kill enemies.
Because of the limited clerical work that Shui Jin could handle, Wu Mo quickly emerged and took over the logistics, which is now being used.
This time he didn't go down to recruit soldiers, because he was counting the number of Dingkou in the city.
The little soldier who was ordered to spread the word was instructed by Huo Bao, and he had already told Wu Mo about Shi Cong's identity.
His future brother-in-law had an accident on the way to get married with his father in March, and he and his sister temporarily lived in Hezhou.
Wu Mo's heart was very complicated.
When he didn't know it, this family business was still going on?
Huo Bao introduced the two in the center.
These two people are still seeing each other for the first time.
Wu Mo paid attention to Shi Cong, and saw that he did not hide hatred in his eyes, but he had no heart and so on, so he knew that he had been deceived by the second room before, and the Shi family did not regret the marriage.
Shi Cong saw Wu Mo's frank expression, without the slightest remorse, thinking of his deceased father who suffered a catastrophe due to marriage, he became more and more resentful, clenched his fists tightly, and couldn't help but do it.
Huo Bao said: "You guys talk about it, after all, there is the second room of the Wu family mixed in first, and it is inevitable that there will be some misunderstandings......"
In the end, it was a private matter between the two families, Huo Bao went out with Niu Qing, leaving them to fight by themselves.
Niu Qing was speechless: "This Wu family has done a big sin, and Second Master Shi has not been wronged!" ”
was fooled into sending his relatives, either he met bandits on the road, or he sent his daughter to the fire pit.
With the adultery of Master Wu's father and son, this Miss Shi was deceived into marrying a fool, and then she can end up well?
But in the event of an accident, the girl was saved, but she also lost the life of the second master Shi.
For the Shi family, it's all a disaster.
Huo Bao nodded.
This Wu family's second room is really not a pity to die.
But fortunately, it was the second room of the Wu family that did it, which left a little room for this family business.
Otherwise, there will be a human life in between, and this family affair will not be continued.
As the two were talking, they heard the sound of horses' hooves sounding rapidly, from far to near.
Horses are not allowed in the city, except in case of emergency.
The two looked at the gate, and saw a dozen or so horses coming, and everyone turned over and dismounted.
The first two people, one is a thousand households under the owner of the horse village, and the other is a black and red face, very bright.
Everyone is in the dust.
"Uncle is here, but there's something wrong in Chuzhou?"
Huo Bao hurriedly asked.
The thousand households hurriedly said: "I have seen Xiao Baoye, Chuzhou is fine, this is General An of the Chaohu Water Division, and he went to Chuzhou to see the fifth master before...... The sixth master sent me to send General An over......"
The Chuzhou army planned the Chaohu Water Division, and they knew the news of the Water Division.
Under the command of the old sailor, there were three teams, one each led by the Yu family's father and son, General Shuangdaosheng, and the An family's brothers.
This General An looked at his age, and when he was established, he should be the eldest brother of the An family.
Huo Bao looked at Niu Qing: "Brother Qing, where is my father?" ”
"I just went to see Mr. Lin."
Huo Bao did not delay, and took the two to the study to find Huo Wu.
……
In the study, Huo Wuzheng was talking to Mr. Lin about the news he had just gotten.
Eastern Hubei chaos, was the right protector of the head of the Tong sect Shou Tianwan, in May, has occupied several state capitals in Hubei, with more than 100,000 soldiers, in July in Qichun called the emperor, the descendants of the emperor of the previous dynasty called themselves, the country name "Daqing".
In August, Daqing sent troops on two routes, all the way to the south to fight Hunan, and all the way to the east to fight Jiangxi.
Qi Chun is thousands of miles away from Hezhou, and the news spread late, so I don't know about it until now.
The two of them glanced at each other, both with eagerness.
There is not much time left for the Chuzhou army.
If it is delayed any longer, the Daqing army will come over quickly.
At that time, if the Chuzhou army wants to fight Jinling, it will have to suffer from the enemy.
"Luzhou can't be delayed any longer, ignore the navy first, and take down a few county towns first......" Huo Wudao.
Master Lin said helplessly: "It's really not good, and it can only be like this, surrender while fighting." ”
Before he finished speaking, he heard movement outside.
"Dad, Mr. Lin, there is news from Luzhou!"
Huo Wu hurriedly said: "It's Xiaobao, come in quickly......"
When the others came in, they knew that it was the Luzhou messenger, and Huo Wu and Mr. Lin both brought solemnity.
"An Yong, the commander of the right army of the Luzhou Water Division, has seen Marshal Huo!"
An Yong's attitude was very respectful and bowed down.
"It's General An who is here in person, please get up quickly!"
Huo Wu hurriedly stepped forward to help, very close: "I am mentioning the Chaohu Water Master with Mr. Lin, the old water master is still an old man with our Mr. Lin, and Mr. Lin is still talking about old friends......
The so-called Chaohu Water Division, more than 20,000 soldiers were born as water bandits, a few years ago, the imperial court sent people to recruit An, and ordered a respected old general to come and command.
That one is really the old friend of Master Lin, but it's that an old friend is not an old friend.
Master Lin used to talk about the old capital's longevity, but he knew that if he died or retreated, no one would subdue these fierce generals, and the Chaohu Water Division would be chaotic.
When An Yong heard this, his body trembled, his eyes turned red, and he said, "We are all ...... The day before yesterday, he was poisoned by the prefect of Luzhou......"
Huo Wuda was shocked: "How can this be? But he couldn't help but look at Master Lin.
Master Lin is waiting for this news?
The old general was known to have a clear name, and it was unjust to die in such a conspiracy.
Even if Master Lin is for Chuzhou, this kind of means is also uncomfortable.
Master Lin stood up "Teng": "Poisoned? How so? I heard that he was sick before, and he has already written to him......"
An Yong was also stunned when he heard this, obviously not knowing about the book: "Lord Dutong has indeed been sick several times in the past six months, is it already an excerpt?" ”
"Others don't know about this matter, but the prefect of Luzhou should know, so there's no need to do more." Master Lin frowned.
Wenwu Shutu.
The post road system is under the civil system, and the prefect will know about the movements there.
Even if you don't know the content of the book, it is not difficult to guess if you think about the age of the old capital.
"But, his old man was really poisoned to death, and he died of poison after returning from the banquet!"
"What did you see with your own eyes? Have you seen him go to a feast and drink with your own eyes? ”
"Lord Tutong was poisoned and died, which we have seen with our own eyes...... The Zhizhou Yamen had a banquet, and it was General Sheng, the commander of the Left Army, who accompanied him...... The prefect of Luzhou dispatched men and horses from six counties, and 40,000 officers and soldiers surrounded Chaohu Lake......"
If it weren't for this, An Yong would not have brought a letter of refuge from Yu Xiu, the deputy commander of the navy, to Chuzhou to ask for reinforcements.
Master Lin got up and said, "Fifth Master, please quickly summon a few generals to send troops to Chaohu...... There is fraud in this matter, when Sheng Shuangdao colluded with the prefect of Luzhou and plotted to take the position of the commander of the water division, and Yu was in danger with several generals in the deputy capital......"
Judging from the official position alone, you know that the old capital commander is the commander, and the one who is qualified to take him over as the commander of the water division is the deputy commander.
This deputy capital Yu Xiu is from Chuzhou, and it is this person who really has an old relationship with Master Lin.
Master Lin had already written to this friend before, recruiting him on behalf of Huo Wu.
For this reason, this time he was surrounded and suppressed by the officers and soldiers of Luzhou, and Yu Xiucai wrote a personal letter, wanting to take more than 20,000 soldiers and more than 1,500 warships of the Chaohu Navy to Huo Wu.
The military situation was urgent, and Huo Wu immediately ordered to send a message to the generals who were recruiting troops in the three counties to go to Hanshan County, which borders Luzhou, to converge.
There is also Shuijin, who was recruited outside the city of Hezhou, and he was also called to be summoned.
Deng Jian was bored, got the news, and immediately took the initiative to ask for help, wanting to lead the crowd first.
Chaohu Lake is large, and the so-called encirclement and suppression of the Luzhou Army is also to concentrate troops to block the Yuxi River, which is connected to Chaohu Lake and the Yangtze River.
40,000 officers and soldiers were displayed there, how dare Huo Wu let Deng Jian rush straight up?
However, the situation of the Chaohu Water Master is in crisis, and if he stops it, it also makes An Yong next to him feel cold.
"Bring water into the three thousand, and the two thousand...... Mainly harass, wait for the army to join forces before fighting. Huo Wu thought for a while and said.
The three thousand old soldiers who entered the water can replenish the troops.
Xiaobao ......
With Xiaobao here, Deng Jian will not risk his safety.
Deng Jian listened, with a little reluctance: "Hezhou always wants to make people stay, let's call Xiaobao to stay......"
Huo Wu insisted: "There are four thousand soldiers in Hezhou, and there is Mr. Song, so there is no need to leave too many people." ”
Deng Jian had no choice but to respond, glanced at Huo Bao, and went down to the whole army without mentioning it.
On Huo Bao's side, he gave an order to Huo Bao and others to reorganize the army.
When the naval headquarters returns, they will set off.
As for the aforementioned vacation between the Zhu brothers and Liang Zhuang, it can only be postponed.
An Yong was very moved when he saw that the Chuzhou army was willing to send troops and arranged it quickly, and said busily: "Xie Huoshuai is compassionate. ”
He came out, but his family and brothers were in Chaohu, so it was inevitable that he would be anxious.
Huo Wu said disapprerovitically: "Yes, you are willing to believe in me Huo Wu, and I, Huo Wu, must be worthy of the generals." ”
If this news had come two days earlier, and several people and horses were in Hezhou, then the Chuzhou army would have directly started with the main force.
The owner of the horse village sent the thousand households, and after everyone finished talking about the military situation, he privately asked to see Huo Wu's father and son, and said the follow-up to Gao Yue's case.
"Gao Yue's parents really don't know, the sixth master has already ordered the release of people...... Gao Yue died, and Zhang Qianhu sent the Gao family and his wife back to Quyang, and then returned directly to Hezhou from Quyang...... According to Li Qianhu, the number of people who know about the second master of Shun is limited, and now he has sent two groups of people, all the way to Quyang to check the handwriting leakage of the owner's house, and all the way to Binjiang to summon the Huo clan ......"
Li Qianhu would be restrained when he heard the surname "Huo", but the owner of the horse village would not.
With his friendship with Huo Wu, even if he directly cleaned up the Huo family, he would also clean up the door for his brother.
Sure enough, in the handwritten letter of the owner of Ma Village, he mentioned this matter, so that Huo Wu could rest assured and handed over the matter to him.
Huo Wu was furious.
I didn't expect anyone to make a fuss about it.
Huo Shun's matter is the pain of the Huo family and the shame of the Huo family.
Because Marshal Liu couldn't make it clear that Che Ma and Huo Shun took revenge, it was already Huo Wu's hatred, but I didn't expect that someone would make trouble from it and use this matter to harm Huo Bao and provoke the relationship between these houses in Nanshan Village.
The owner of the horse village directly identified the suspect among the people of the Huo family in Binjiang, which is also targeted.
Because Huo Shun's enemy is the Han family, the matter was hidden, and there were not many people who knew about it, except for the Gao family adjacent to Huo Shun's family.
Those who had the opportunity to hear about it except Binjiang Huo's had no one else.
"Tell the sixth master, please bother him about this matter, and I'll wait for the news."
The thousand households were a little depressed and said, "Yes, the subordinates will go back to their lives." ”
Huo Wu glanced at him.
These thousand households are only in their thirties, in the prime of life, and they are the little brothers who followed the owner of the horse village into the Black Python Mountain when they were teenagers.
The owner of the horse village sat in Chuzhou and did not move, and his men and horses had to stay.
According to the rules of the Chuzhou army, the soldiers can be captured.
After a long time, the main department of Mazhai will have a gap with others, and I am afraid that some people under his command will be dissatisfied.
Huo Wu said: "Say it to the sixth master on my behalf, seeing that he is going to fight Luzhou, let him not be lazy, he doesn't like to come out, so he will send his subordinates to come out in turn......"
These thousand households' eyes really lit up.
Huo Wu couldn't help laughing and kicked the thousand households: "Stinky boy, if you want to fight, just say it directly, who will stop you?" ”
The thousand households hesitated: "There must be someone left." ”
It's not just the problem of staying behind, but the lack of generals is the main reason.
Now Huo Wu has several generals, all of whom are independent into an army.
If the owner of the horse village does not come out, it is a big problem for him to belong to these horses.
If this matter is not resolved, everyone will not be relieved to come out.
Huo Wu thought for a while and said, "This is also a problem, and I will stay in shifts in the future...... Your sixth master is lazy, you are young, and you are not injured like Xiao Zhu, so don't think about being lazy......"
According to the relatives, the owners of the horse village should be handed over to the horses and foals to lead.
But Ma Juzi and Huo Hu are now following Deng Jianjian, but it is not good to row these people over.
The same is true for everyone else.
The division of troops has passed, and it is not good to take it back after a long time.
Huo Wu said: "When the time comes, you will follow me, or Xiaobao, and you will not be able to ......fight for a short time."
The thousand households were overjoyed at this time, and said busily: "Thank you, Fifth Master, my subordinates will go back and tell the Sixth Master about this, and they will not delay the matter of Chaohu......"
When Huo Bao heard this, he said, "Please help my uncle send a message to the boy soldier camp, and let Hou Xiaoming lead the people of the child soldier camp to Hanshan ...... with the people under the command of the sixth uncle."
There are 40,000 officers and soldiers in Luzhou, and there are only more than 20,000 soldiers in Chuzhou who can pass through the state.
Fighting in different places, there is no advantage in numbers, and the momentum is shortened, so it is better to pull out more men and horses.
Even if it's a full number, it's just a long experience.
On the other side of the boy barracks, in addition to the two thousand seven recruits, there were also two thousand monks.
The thousand households received the note, and they did not rest, immediately changed a few horses, and led a few of his subordinates back to Chuzhou to deliver the message......
