Chapter Fifty-Six: Surrender to Home

"Su Yong of Shengbao Village, thank you for your help!"

Sima Yu drove his horse all the way to the dirt slope, and Su Yong immediately stepped forward to salute Sima Yu and thanked him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sima Yu and their hands rescued more than 1,000 remaining village names in Shengbao Village.

"Uncle doesn't need to be polite, everyone is Han, Sima Yu naturally won't sit idly by and watch his brothers of the same clan being abused by foreigners" Sima Yu said with his right hand, and after speaking, he shifted his gaze to Xiang Lang and the others.

At this time, Xiang Lang was looking at Sima Yu with a complicated expression, and the three Xiang Pet brothers behind Xiang Lang also looked at him with strange eyes.

"Uncle Xiang, are you chasing me so hard?"

Sima Yu took a few steps forward, looked at Xiang Lang and the others who were intact, shook his head, showed a wry smile on his face, and bowed.

After four days of hard pursuit, Si He finally caught up with Xiang Lang and them, but he also paid a heavy price, and more than 100 personal guards were buried here.

"I'm tired of Lord Sima's thoughts, I don't know what Lord Sima just said?"

Xiang Lang Wenyan looked suspicious and asked.

"In the first battle that day, due to the chores in the army and the cowardice in my heart, I couldn't visit Uncle Xiang in time, so that I missed Uncle Xiang, and Sima Yu regretted it too late in his heart. So early the next morning, when I heard the news of Uncle Xiang's departure, I brought someone to hurry up, and I finally caught up with it until I got here."

After Sima Yu sighed, he said sincerely.

"Brother Sima is here for me?"

Xiang Lang behind Xiang Lang said in surprise when he heard this.

"Yes, Uncle Xiang and the three brothers are all talented, if it is because of my Sima Yu's mistakes that Qilin Town loses its talents, the sin will be great, how can I not chase it" Sima Yu nodded and said, his expression was natural when he spoke, without any pretentiousness.

"Greetings to the Lord! To be so valued by the lord is worthy of Lang! From now on, the lord has a life, and he will not give up to Lang Wan."

Xiang Lang was shocked when he heard this, and he was extremely excited in his heart, and he bent over and said directly.

Today's Sima Yu has occupied the entire area along the river, plus the newly occupied Sancun and Xiangjia Town, the entire Qilin Town's sphere of influence has exceeded 200 square kilometers, and the population under his rule is nearly 200,000.

With such an identity, he would chase hundreds of miles to his family for him, and he was almost in danger in the battle just now, which shows his sincerity.

As the saying goes, a scholar dies for a confidant, and Sima Yu can be so valued by Xiang Langyan that he has a reason not to serve him.

"Meet the lord from the pet (charge/strip)!"

Seeing this, the three brothers who were also warm in their hearts also knelt on the ground and pledged their allegiance to Sima Yu, especially Xiang Tiao, who had a straightforward temperament, and had tears in his eyes.

The grace of saving lives and the grace of knowing things, Sima Yu's actions directly subdued the hearts of the three young talents.

"Haha, okay, please hurry up, haha, I can get Uncle Xiang and the three brothers to help, and great things can be done!"

Sima Yu, who was still a little apprehensive in his heart, was overjoyed when he saw this, and laughed directly at the sky, and blurted out directly under excitement.

Xiang Lang, Xiang Pet and others next to him were excited when they heard this, and the Lord of the Secret Dao really had great ambitions.

"Lord, now that the Qing army has retreated, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, it is better to leave quickly!"

Now that he has joined Sima Yu, Xiang Lang quickly corrected his role and suggested to Sima Yu.

"What Uncle Xiang said is reasonable, but I don't know what Village Chief Su Yong should do? If you stay here, you will be poisoned! ”

Hearing this, Sima Yu pressed the joy of the center, looked at the villagers of Shengbao Village behind Su Yong, frowned and said distressedly.

In this battle, Sima Yu's personal guards have been completely lost, and with his current manpower, he may not be able to protect the safety of these villagers.

In addition, there are still hundreds of miles to Qilin Town, and it is not easy to bring these people to Qilin Town.

After what he had seen and heard in the past few days in Daxi's sphere of influence, Sima Yu understood that Daxi might not be able to support it for long, and he really couldn't waste any more time here, so he had to return to Qilin Town as soon as possible to make arrangements.

Otherwise, once Daxi is defeated and the Qing army advances eastward, it will be difficult to resist in the current state of Qilin Town.

"Don't worry about me, adults, we just need to go into the mountains to hide for a few days, these thieves will leave if they can't find us."

Su Yong looked grateful when he heard this, and waved his hand.

Su Yong didn't expect that at such a juncture, Sima Yu would actually care about the safety of these mustard people, such a lord who cares about the people is really rare.

If it weren't for the wrong time now, and Su Yong's son hadn't returned yet, he would have taken the villagers of Shengbao Village to Sima Yu.

"In that case, then Su Yong Village Chief take care! Take care, folks! ”

When Sima Yu heard this, he nodded helplessly, and said goodbye to Su Yong and the others.

When they came to the bottom of the hillside, Wang Yantong and the others had already piled up the corpses of the fallen soldiers and set them on fire, and Sima Yu ordered them to replace the Jinzhou war horses captured by the Qing army and gallop to the southwest.

In this battle, Sima Yu and his team annihilated more than 200 Manchu cavalry, captured more than 60 good Jinzhou war horses, plus Guizhou horses and Hequ horses in Qilin Town, there are still more than 100 remaining horses when one person is equipped with two horses.

These surplus war horses were left in place by Sima Yu for Su Yong and them to use.

After Sima Yu and the others left, Su Yong also led many villagers of Shengbao Village to the bottom of the slope, and when he saw the more than 100 war horses left in place, he naturally knew that Sima Yu and them had left, so they immediately started to lead these war horses to hide in the mountains.

As for the defenders in Baiyun Town, they had already been frightened by the fierce battle outside the town, and they did not dare to go out of the city at all, for fear that the fleeing Manchu iron cavalry would go and return.

Outside Wugu Village, the river surface is sparkling and dozens of miles wide, and the wind and waves are calm.

Wugu Village on the bank of the river is surrounded by a large area of fertile land, and millions of acres of fertile land have been overgrown with golden rice, looking like a golden ocean from afar.

August is the harvest season, and at this time, there is a happy frolic sound in the fields from time to time, and a villager can be seen everywhere burying his head in the field, struggling to harvest the rice in the field.

This year's bumper harvest, the yield of each mu of fertile land in Wugu Village is more than 300 catties of rice, and these tenants can save a lot in addition to the part handed in, and the joy of the harvest makes these tenant farmers more and more energetic.

"Whoa~"

Just as many villagers were happily harvesting rice, there was a sudden sound of breaking waves on the river in the distance, and a huge fleet was faintly visible through the trees on the shore.

This fleet totaled nearly 200 warships, and it densely occupied the entire river.

At the front of the fleet, a large fortune ship with a length of about 60 meters and a width of 18 meters, with three towers, a wide bottom tip, and a high bow and tail broke through the waves.

"General, there's a village on the right"

On the Daifuku ship, a military general dressed in armor and wearing a red cloak on his shoulders stood at the bow of the ship, and a soldier stepped forward to report to him respectfully.

The general looked in the direction the soldier was pointing, and could see in the distance the village of Wugu in the shade of trees, and the continuous sea of golden rice on the riverbank.

"Pass the order down and dock along the river"

The general watched silently for a while, then pointed to the beach on the bank of the river and ordered.

Soon, the entire fleet began to slowly turn around and sail towards the river beach on the shore where Wugu Village was located.
