Chapter 81: The Conspiracy Approaches

When he arrived at Kuizhou Mansion, it was late at night, and Huang Junda, the prefect of Kuizhou, did not make any pomp to greet him, but just waited for Ling Yu at the dock of Kuizhou Mansion.

Ling Yu took everyone off the boat, and Huang Junda greeted him and said, "Huang Junda, the prefect of Xiaguan Kuizhou, has seen Lingwu Hou. ”

"Huang Zhifu doesn't need to be polite, it's getting late at this time, please Huang Zhifu arrange for me to rest, in addition, please Huang Zhifu send someone to repair the damaged ship as soon as possible, don't delay the trip." Ling Yu waved his hand.

"Okay, Master Hou, please rest in the post house with the generals, and the matter of ship repair will be handed over to the lower official, and the lower official will arrange someone to deal with it as soon as possible." Huang Junda said respectfully.

"Well, in that case, there's trouble for Governor Huang over there." Ling Yu said, after speaking, he beckoned to the entourage behind him, and followed the people arranged by Huang Junda to the post house to rest.

Waiting for Ling Yu and the others to go away, Huang Junda's smile gradually converged, and he whispered to Li Yangcheng, the master next to him: "Lao Li, have things been arranged?" Li Yangcheng has followed Huang Junda for many years, not only a confidant, but also a mastermind, often helping Huang Junda with advice.

"Don't worry, my lord, everything has been arranged, and someone will deal with Lingwu Hou's flagship in a while." Li Yangcheng laughed quietly.

"Well, they all have soldiers left behind on their warships, and if you want to find a way to support these people, you must not attract their attention." Huang Junda said cautiously.

"Rest assured, my lord, our men will mingle with the craftsmen and distract the guards under the pretext of towing the ship into the dock, and they will not think that we will do anything on the flagship." Li Yangcheng stroked his beard and smiled.

"That's fine, Lao Li, you've been with me for so many years, and I'm still relieved that you're doing things." Huang Junda said with a smile, he is a 13-year jinshi in Chongwen, he was originally a poor family, and he also took the path of Zhao Zhengkang, and only when he became Zhao Zhengkang's protégé did he have the opportunity to release the prefect, and Li Yangcheng has been following Huang Junda since he was still developing.

Huang Junda has always trusted him very much, this time he received urgent news from Zhao Zhengkang, and asked Huang Junda to design to get rid of Ling Yu in Kuizhou Mansion, Li Yangcheng has made a lot of efforts, from the site selection and burying the reef to the repair of Ling Yu's fleet, Li Yangcheng has done it single-handedly, so far, it can be said that it has been done very beautifully.

Soon, Li Yangcheng arranged people and some craftsmen who were summoned, on the grounds of repair, dragged five ships, including the flagship, into the dock, Kuizhou Mansion is located along the Yangtze River, and the natural dock dock is readily available, although there is no shipbuilding, but there are often repairs to ships.

The soldiers did not suspect him, and after the officer on duty understood the situation, he took the soldiers off the ship to rest, they would not have thought that someone would do anything to the ship, and Huang Junda only planned to do anything to the flagship, and other ships were still repaired very formally.

Don't say that the soldiers can't think of it, Ling Yu can't think of it either, at this time Ling Yu has already entered the post house and is ready to rest, Li Shu, as Ling Yu's personal guard, naturally follows Ling Yu closely, due to many dangerous experiences, now when he goes out, Li Shu sleeps in the same room with Ling Yu, usually inside and outside, so that it is convenient to respond quickly.

"Old fish, I still have an ominous premonition, as if something is going to happen." Li Shu said suddenly.

"I think you are homesick syndrome, it's only been a long time since you've been out, and you've been thinking all day long, I'm afraid it will take a long time for us to come out this time, Your Majesty's intention is to sweep away those toasts in the Song Domain, realize the transformation of the land and return to the stream, and solve the problem from the root." Ling Yu didn't care when he heard this, he smiled and said, this is not to blame him, he didn't know that Huang Junda was Zhao Zhengkang's protégé, and Zhou Zhengxiong would not tell him in detail which official of Da Zhou was Zhao Zhengkang's protégé, after all, the number was very large.

Ling Yu didn't care much about the court, so naturally he didn't know it, so it was not surprising that he would think like this now.

"Lao Yu, anyway, I'll just say that, but I still think it's okay to be careful, and as the commander of the guard company, it's okay to be cautious, it's my duty to protect you, don't blame me for thinking too much." Li Shu said with a straight face, having served as a company commander for such a long time, Li Shu has gradually gained the demeanor of a guard company commander.

Ling Yu looked at Li Shu with satisfaction and said: "Mouse, you are right, be cautious, you will go to inspect everywhere tomorrow, I think there will be no danger in Kuizhou Mansion, there will be a large army around to protect it, there will be no big problems." ”

"Well, there's no problem with this, I'll do it tomorrow, then rest early, I'm tired after a night of tossing." Li Shu stretched his waist and said, and then went to rest outside.

Ling Yu smiled and shook his head, he saw Li Shu's growth in his eyes, and he was also very happy, after all, Li Shu was one of the few people he could absolutely trust, the better Li Shu was, the happier he was.

There was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, Ling Yu got up very early, and when he went out, he naturally did not have a wife and concubine to serve him like at home, but Ling Yu was not used to it, after all, he had been in this world for more than ten years, and since he was able to live and take care of himself, he lived like this.

Ling Yu just went out of the room and was about to have breakfast, when he saw Huang Junda leading the officials and gentry of the Kuizhou Mansion to formally meet the Marquis of Qincha Lingwu. 110 Literature

After smiling and saluting, Huang Junda led Ling Yu to the most famous restaurant in Kuizhou Mansion for breakfast, generally speaking, the reception banquet will not be arranged in the morning, but this time the situation is special, you can't let Qin Cha wait until noon or evening, so Huang Junda arranged it early in the morning.

The meal was enjoyable, and Ling Yu was bored because he was waiting for the ship to be repaired in Kuizhou Mansion, chatting with everyone, it seemed very relaxed, and during this period, many gentry in Kuizhou Mansion expressed the idea of wanting to act as a spiritual guide for the Lingke Chamber of Commerce.

Ling Yu just smiled and refused, saying that he would not consider export for the time being, but this is only temporary, there will always be a day when export is needed, hearing Ling Yu say this, although everyone is a little disappointed, but there is also hope.

Huang Junda maintained a harmless smile throughout the whole process, he had already received a report from Li Yangcheng, and the handling over there had been successful, and a large number of explosive charms had been buried inside the flagship, and a dead man had been arranged to hide somewhere in the flagship, which could easily activate the explosive charm when necessary.

Therefore, Huang Junda thought in his heart that he had completed Zhao Zhengkang's instructions, and he would be able to make steady progress in the future, so he was naturally in a happy mood and smiled a little more sincerely.

After receiving the wind, Ling Yu didn't bother to go shopping in Kuizhou Mansion, after all, it was a local state capital, although it was also prosperous, but it was far inferior to the capital, Ling Yu naturally had no interest in shopping, and went straight back to the post house, Ling Yu felt that since there was nothing to do, it was better to spend more time cultivating, he was now about to advance to the fifth level spirit master.

Just as he was about to cultivate for a while, Li Shu came back, and immediately found Ling Yu, frowning and said, "Old Yu, I checked it just now, but I didn't see any problems, but the more this happens, the more my foreboding will become, should we do something to take precautions?" ”

"Mouse, how do I feel that your homesickness is getting worse and worse? Since there is no problem checked, isn't there no problem? By the way, how is the ship repaired? Have you ever been to see it? Ling Yu asked with a smile.

"Well, look, Huang Zhifu is very effective, and now the flagship is estimated to be repaired tomorrow morning because of the light injury, as for the other warships, it may take another day, but it can be regarded as fast." Li Shu said.

"That's good, presumably you can set off again the day after tomorrow, this Huang Governor's Mansion seems to be very good, and the work efficiency is very high." Ling Yu praised Huang Junda in his heart, it was rare to see the efficiency of the local officials of the Great Zhou, but he didn't know that the Huang Governor's Mansion had planted a "time bomb" for Ling Yu.

"I'll be cultivating for a while if there's nothing to do, and you're fine, so it's better to spend more time cultivating, now you should be in the middle of the fourth level." Ling Yu asked, Li Shu's cultivation progress was naturally inferior to Ling Yu's, but he had already advanced to the fourth level.

"I can't do it, I'd better go to the guard company to go around, Lin Qing and they are still training every day in the military camp outside the city, I can't slack off, the guard company is the most elite unit in the whole army." Li Shu said proudly, as Ling Yu's guard company, it is naturally composed of the most elite soldiers in the whole army, which is also Ling Yu's last barrier, so naturally he can't be sloppy.

"Well, then you go, come back to me if you have something." After Ling Yu finished speaking, he ignored Li Shu and began to cultivate on his own.

Li Shu glanced at Ling Yu, the ominous premonition in his heart still lingered, but he couldn't say what was wrong, sighed, he could only take one step at a time, and then he was more cautious that even if he sacrificed himself, he couldn't let Ling Yu be in danger, Li Shu secretly made up his mind in his heart.

The days in Kuizhou Mansion were boring, and on the second day, Ling Yu also got the latest battle report from Huang Junda on the Hanzhou side, and now under the onslaught of the rebels, Hanzhou has been in danger, and the main general Ren Xiang, the general of the Sichuan garrison, wanted to retreat to the new capital with the army several times, but was blocked by Li Xin and Long Mingyuan, the general of the Chengdu garrison, which has been nailed to the city of Hanzhou.

In fact, the news received by Ling Yu was still lagging behind, at this time the city of Hanzhou could be said to have been broken, Ren Xiang was afraid of the battle, after the rebels attacked the city, he was so frightened that he ran away from the south gate with his own guards, and the morale of the garrison troops was not high, and the combat strength was not strong, and the main generals fled, so they naturally collapsed.

Fortunately, with the elite of the 3,000 Li family army led by Li Xin, they fought and retreated, and Long Mingyuan took the remnants of the army with about 10,000 and retreated to the new capital, Ren Xiang had already retreated here, Long Mingyuan was angry and almost started with Ren Xiang, fortunately, Li Xin was on the side to persuade him, before he stopped, now the enemy is current, it is not appropriate to fight, even if Ren Xiang is wrong, then he can only wait for the end of the war to deal with it.

An Hongyi and other rebels did not continue to pursue, they also fought very hard in this battle, and they used the lives of cannon fodder to pile up the victory, and they also lost tens of thousands of people, but most of them were cannon fodder, and the elite troops did not lose much, so they took a temporary break under Yan Zhongdao's suggestion, after all, they all knew that Xindu was already the last barrier of Chengdu Prefecture, and the official army would definitely not flee like Hanzhou in the end, and they would fight to the death, and they needed to rest and fight again.

Xindu City, after the rout of the army, now the Xindu official army still has more than 20,000 heads, this is still added to the Li family army led by Li Xin, the first battle of Hanzhou, the loss of the Li family army is not small, there are more than 2,000 people left, the loss of the garrison troops is even greater, the original two armies have a total of more than 30,000 people, and now there are about 20,000 left, and the new capital may not be able to hold it, it can only be held for a day, and I hope that the imperial court reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible.

"Ren Xiang, as the main general, you actually fled in fear of the battle, where did you put my brothers in the army, because of you, we lost more than 10,000 troops, and now we don't know how long the new capital can be defended, do you know what the consequences will be if the rebels break the new capital." In the new capital city, in the temporary headquarters of the county government, Long Mingyuan angrily accused.

"Presumptuous, Long Mingyuan, I would have been the general of the Sichuan garrison, and if you didn't listen to the retreat order issued by the general, you still dare to commit a crime, accusing Shangguan, what crime should you be guilty of." Ren Xiang said in a fierce voice, in fact, he only dared to shout, he definitely didn't dare to cure Long Mingyuan's crimes, although he fought straw bales, but he was not stupid, Long Mingyuan was a person who could fight, and he had to keep it against the rebels.

As for surrender, Ren Xiang never thought about it, although his level is poor, but he will not be willing to degenerate to surrender to Tusi, he still disdains it.
