Chapter 116: Chen Youlong's New Mission
Liu Chengyin changed a new hairstyle of "money rat tail", fully expressed his determination to surrender despite all difficulties, and successfully won the trust of Kong Youde, and the two sides reached an agreement in a pleasant atmosphere, and the Chenzhou soldiers shaved their hair and changed their banners within three days and joined the sequence of the Qing Green Battalion.
The spring breeze is proud, Liu Chengyin is riding a horse and galloping on the road back to Yuanling, there is a bright spring breeze in front of him, and the beautiful future seems to be beckoning to him not far away, fresh and expensive? This identity is really good, Liu Chengyin feels that he is a long-sleeved and good dancer, and he is a trend-setter...... But what he can't understand is that there is another quality called loyalty in this world, and there is a kind of strength called morality.
As soon as he entered Yuanling City, he heard that something had happened in the Yin Hotel, so he hurried back to his mansion, and didn't care about the trouble of finding Zhu Yunyu and General Zhang, so he rushed directly into the back house, and just entered the courtyard, but saw his mother's face like frost, holding the family law, and standing solemnly at the foot of the steps.
Although Liu's mother is not a well-informed lady, she is an extremely kind old lady, after seeing Du Yinxi and Zhu, she learned what her good son had done, Liu's mother was extremely angry, and forced Liu Chengyin to die, and ordered her son to open the city gate and let Yin Xi and his party escape.
Liu Chengyin lost his father when he was young, and his mother raised their brothers to adulthood...... After a stick of incense, Liu Chengyin was still kneeling in front of the steps, but Liu Chengyong took the warrant he had just written, and walked out of Liu's mansion with Du Yinxi and others.
General Zhang and other generals stepped forward to intercept him, but after seeing Liu Chengyin's handwritten warrant, he still refused to let him go. He sent someone into the house to ask Liu Chengyin for instructions again, but he saw that the handsome man was kneeling on the ground to receive the family law, and his nose was not his nose. The face is not the face, and it scolded them directly.
"Nonsense, is Ben Shuai's warrant still fake? My mother said to release people, then release people! ”
There was no reason to intercept at this moment, Liu Chengyong took Gu Yinxi through the checkpoint, went straight to the West Gate, and received Zhu Yunyu's three sons and one daughter on the way. After the incident broke out. Zhu Yunyao's family also knew that there was a lot of bad luck, and no matter which child stayed in the city, he would wait for death, so he simply sent them all.
It took a lot of trouble at the city gate. After finally leaving the city, and after bowing and thanking Liu Chengyong, he drove to the southwest to Luxi County, which was the territory of the Chu army. It's only when you get there that you're really out of danger......
In the house of Liu's house. Liu's mother reprimanded the unscrupulous son and advised Liu Chengyin to rein in the precipice, not to forget the classics, and surrender to the Manchu Dynasty, while Liu Chengyin claimed that he was just a false and wrongful snake, and shaving his head was just an expedient measure to deal with the Qing army. Then he hurriedly left the back house and called Chen Youlong.
"Hurry up with two hundred spirits. Chase back Plug Yinxi for me, if he doesn't comply, he will be cut directly! The good mood just now has flown to Java, Liu Chengyin gritted his teeth, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth...... Can I run away if I move out? The nearest Chu army is also in Luxi County, eighty miles away, and Du Yinxi and the others are all weak scholars, and they may not be able to get there in a day and a night, and they are not afraid that they will fly to the sky.
"Yes!"
Chen Youlong was as simple as usual, not saying a word of nonsense, he took the order and turned around, it didn't take long, the horses' hooves went away like thunder, Liu Chengyin couldn't help but nodded, Zhang Shenjiang is that kind of guy who is not responsible, or Chen Youlong is the most reassuring.
Worried that Chen Youlong was short of manpower, he sent General Zhang and others with two thousand infantry to assist, and after everything was arranged, he turned around and went straight to the side hall.
"Damn, Lao Tzu seeks a future for his brothers, but there are so many guys making trouble, especially that Zhu Yunyu is the most hateful!"
Bu Zuowen has been hiding in the background, Liu Chengyin didn't know that he was making trouble in it, thinking that this matter was handled by Liu Chengyong and Zhu Yunyao, Liu Chengyong is his own brother, if he wants to beat and scold, he will talk back, now go and clean up Zhu Yunyao, take a good breath, and by the way, set up a threat to deter the army, and see who dares to oppose the surrender of the Manchus!
He stepped into the side hall violently, Zhu Yunyu hurriedly stood up, looking nervous, but stubbornly pursed the corners of his mouth, without saying a word, the blood of the emperor of the Han family flowed in his body, even in the face of Liu Tieba, who had always been afraid, he was unwilling to beg for mercy and sophistry.
Liu Chengyin didn't say a word, "Fight for boxing", knocked Zhu Yunyu to the ground, and then kicked and stepped on it, Zhu Yunyin kept moaning in pain, a blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and spit out a few teeth, his voice became weaker and weaker, and he lay motionless on the ground like a sandbag, and let Liu Chengyin beat him at will.
In the end, it was the prince of the old Zhu family, it was not appropriate to beat him to death directly, after Liu Chengyin finished venting, he pulled Zhu Yunyu with his feet, and seeing that he had not yet lost his breath, he called a carriage to send the scarred Zhu Yunyu back to the palace......
There is a shortage of war horses in the south, except for some scouts and horses, the two hundred elite cavalry led by Chen Youlong are all the cavalry in Chenzhou, and they are also the main force chasing after Yinxi.
After leaving the west gate, several scouts came to report, judging from the rutted horseshoe prints, Du Yinxi should have fled in Luxi County, which was southwest, and it was estimated that the time had just gone not far away, and if he rode a fast horse, he could catch up with them in less than two hours.
"Did you really go to Luxi County?" Chen Youlong followed the two scouts to the intersection of the four roads to investigate carefully, not letting go of any detail, delaying a long stick of incense, and waiting until General Zhang and others rushed up with the infantry, and then solemnly announced: "I have already seen that there are many traces of cars and horses on the road to Luxi County, but there are also two new horseshoe prints on the road to Chenxi County, this must be a plan to block Yinxi's move to divert the tiger from the mountain, we should chase down to Chenxi County!" ”
What bullshit is this! Zhang Shen was thundered a lot, if it weren't for Chen Youlong's official rank being higher than him, and the murderous reputation of the Five Yama Kings, he would have cursed at that time.
He suppressed his dissatisfaction, and said kindly: "Chenxi County is more than half farther than Luxi County, and there is no reason for Yinxi to be willing to go far, so he should still flee to Luxi County." ”
"Huh?" Chen Youlong snorted coldly from his nose, and suddenly glared, his eyes full of cold hostility.
"Oh, what General Chen said must be right, but we have a lot of soldiers and horses, so it's better to chase them separately." Another general played a round.
"Yes, you go to Luxi County, and I'll go to Chenxi County." Chen Youlong put aside the next sentence, urged the horse and chased down the fork in the road to the south with 200 cavalry.
General Zhang and the others looked at each other, the two hundred cavalry were all taken away, except for a few scouts, there were no war horses, how could the infantry with short legs chase the carriage blocking Yinxi?
Chen Youlong chased all the way with two hundred cavalry, but unsurprisingly found nothing, and after returning to Yuanling City, General Zhang and others had already sued him in front of Liu Chengyin.
"Why do you want to let go of Plug Yinxi?" Liu Chengyin now has a kind of anger of betrayal and separation, although he endures it, the calm before the outbreak is even more palpitating.
Chen Youlong said lightly: "We have no grievances with the blocking of the military gate in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, even if we have to surrender the Tartars, why do we have to put him to death." ”
Liu Chengyin's expression changed, and he suddenly smiled, stroked his smooth forehead and said, "What? You have finally figured it out and are willing to submit to the King of Obedience with me? ”
The Zhenxiao soldiers are the most elite troops in Xiangxi, only listen to Chen Youlong's orders, and Liu Chengyin is also not in command, but when it comes to surrendering to the Manchu Dynasty, Chen Youlong's attitude has been ambiguous.
"The last general is dull, only to follow the commander, the horse is the first to look!"
Chen Youlong's answer was sonorous and powerful, which made Liu Chengyin laugh and laugh......
The strongest Zhenxiao soldiers also shaved their heads, and no one objected to the other generals, Liu Chengyin finally successfully completed the plan to surrender, three days later, Kong Youde entered Yuanling City, rewarded him with the title of Chenzhou General Soldier, and then sent Chen Youlong to send troops to Xiangxi Yongshun Xuanwei Division, protect the Qing court envoys, and go to recruit Peng Hongshu, the Tusi there.
Yongshun Peng family is the king of Tusi in Xiangxi, since the five dynasties and ten kingdoms period in the local rule, inheritance has been more than 700 years of history, no matter how the Central Plains dynasty changes, the Peng family's rule in Xiangxi has been unbreakable, the Manchu Qing Dynasty also adopted a soft policy towards it, Kong Youde prepared a will before leaving Beijing, and named it as the Taibao of Zhengyipin, and continued to guard Xiangxi.
"This king heard that a few days ago, he went to Xiangxi, I don't know what Lu Dao promised Peng Hongshu, these natives are not obedient to education, their brains are stupid, in case they are bewitched to resist the heavenly soldiers, it will inevitably be another trouble, so I have to ask General Chen to work hard to deter the Peng family...... "Kong Youde's attitude is very kind, the Zhenxiao soldiers are famous in Xiangxi, and the Miao people mention Chen Youlong, the king of the five yamas, and the children dare not cry in the middle of the night, so useful vicious dogs must of course be encircled.
"Obey the orders of the prince!" Chen Youlong's figure is short and strong, lying on the ground and kowtowing, looking like a child who has not grown up, but Kong Youde knows that he is infinitely powerful, skilled in martial arts, and is a rare fierce general.
"After the matter of Yongshun is over, General Chen might as well go to Guizhou again and invite He Tengjiao's family to Changsha......" Kong Youde smiled, like a cunning old fox.
After the Qing army occupies Chenzhou Mansion and Baoqing Mansion, the loyal battalion and the Chu army will definitely be driven to the mountainous areas in southwest Hunan Province, due to the complex terrain, sending troops to attack may not be able to win, it is better to hold the grain-producing areas in Hunan and trap the loyal battalion and the Chu army to death. In order to complete this plan, it is necessary to cut off the connection between southern Hunan and western Xiangxi, so that Wang Kefan will not get supplies from southern Hunan and Guangxi, and the attack on Hengzhou and Yongzhou will be put on the agenda.
Hengzhou Mansion and Yongzhou Mansion are under the control of He Tengjiao, and I heard that he is a famous filial son, so he arrested his family to see if he surrendered or not. (To be continued......)
