The city wall of Taohuazhai is solid, all kinds of fortifications are built, there are dozens of arrow towers alone, the city wall is full of rolling wood and stone for defending the city, there is no heavy weapon for siege, it is difficult for these rogues to break the gate of Taohuazhai.

There are two small cottages stationed in each of the fifty miles to the left and right of the Peach Blossom Village, and at the same time, there are ten fortresses built between these two cottages and the Peach Blossom Village.

Su Yi transferred 5,000 pikemen to each of the two cottages on the left and right, and the strength of each fortress has also increased from the original 200 to 1,000 men.

The only thing that worried Su Yi was the Southern Barren Forest.

The South Barren Forest is a long distance from the cottage, Su Yi cannot arrange soldiers to guard every inch of the road, the construction of the South Barren Forest is still in progress, and the daily food consumed by the young and strong needs to be transported from the cottage, once the grain transport team leaves the cottage, it is likely to be attacked by the rogues.

For this reason, Su Yi had to send additional manpower to assist the transport team in transporting food and other daily necessities to the Southern Wasteland.

Just when Su Yi was anxiously preparing for the outbreak of the Red-Coat Rebellion, Cheng Wenyuan rushed to Taohuazhai with more than 200 cavalry.

When he first saw Cheng Wenyuan, Su Yi was taken aback, the young master Cheng, who was originally quite handsome, looked embarrassed, the two hundred cavalry under his command were all wounded, and many people's armor was splashed with blood.

Seeing this, Su Yi was slightly stunned and said, "Brother Cheng, what's going on?" ”

But seeing Cheng Wenyuan laughing self-deprecatingly, "Liu Yu Lao'er from Youzhou sent someone to my house to find you, I came all the way, and met a lot of homeless people wrapped in red scarves and Wudoumi sect members on the way, fortunately I brought cavalry, all the way to kill, I thought that the vertical and horizontal mountains are some bandits and rogues, the situation will be better, I don't want this place to be more chaotic than the outside, those rogues are like crazy, as soon as they see people, they pounced, I desperately led my subordinates to kill, and brought five hundred cavalry, only more than two hundred horsemen left." ”

Su Yi has been working on the fortifications of the cottage for the past few days, but he didn't expect the Zongheng Mountain Range to be in chaos like this.

"I didn't expect it......" Su Yi sighed and said: "I expected the rebellion of the Wudoumi Sect for a long time, but I didn't expect that the Zongheng Mountain Range would also be affected by the Red-clothed Rebellion, by the way, you are now a partial general in Liaodong, under the command of Gongsun Yiqing, this Red-clothed Rebellion, how is the situation in Liaodong?" ”

Cheng Wenyuan said with palpitations: "Gongsun Lao'er still has some ability, the Wudou Mi Sect just made a rebellion in Liaodong, Gongsun Yiqing sent troops to suppress it, and the four major families in Liaodong also sent people to support Gongsun Lao'er, the Wudou Mi Sect's rudder in Liaodong just started an incident, and it was besieged by the army, and Qu Shuai and a number of backbones of the rudder were killed on the spot, but they escaped from the helmsman and several of his henchmen. ”

"The influence of the red-clothed rebellion is too great, and there are many people among the people who are their sects, although the bandit leaders are removed, but it is difficult for these sects to be cleared for a while, Gongsun Lao'er is mobilizing soldiers and horses from all over the country to quell the rebellion, but there are people who copy out the red-clothed people in their homes, and the whole family is beheaded, and the whole Liaodong is panicking, not long ago, the Wuhuan tribe attacked Yumen Pass, and the soldiers of Yumen Pass were killed and wounded."

Su Yi narrowed his eyes, fell into deep thought, and asked half-loudly, "What did Liu Yu send someone to your mansion for?" Could it be that they are looking for me? ”

Cheng Wenyuan said with a smile: "You have always claimed to live in my village, except for Liu Yu, how many groups of people have come to look for you?" ”

"Oh?" Su Yi was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he thought about it and understood the Tao.

Liu Yu did not arrange a station for Su Yi, and Su Yi claimed to live in Cheng Wenyuan's village, and after learning that Su Yi was sent to Youzhou by Huang Wenbing as an official, those who had been looking for Su Yi's traces were very shocked.

Needless to say, Pei Wen and King Qi hated to peel Su Yi's skin, but Su Yi made great contributions in reporting the collusion between the Wanjia branch and the Hu people, and was awarded the position of military officer by Huang Wenbing, so they naturally couldn't embarrass Su Yi openly, just waiting for the opportunity, finding an excuse to convict him casually, and then let Liu Yu get rid of him.

After the king of Qi lost power, the king of Qin, Yang Yi, changed his usual low-key style, striving to be the first in everything, and the king of Qi was jealous of the emperor of Chu because of the matter of raising private soldiers, so he had to keep his light and keep obscure, and the king of Qin Yang Yi pressed step by step, and the descendants of the king of Qi were gone, and the ministers who supported the king of Qi in the court became fewer and fewer.

Even Pei Wen, who has always publicly supported King Qi, has become ambiguous, King Qi gritted his teeth with hatred for Su Yi, and just wanted to get rid of this guy who made him lose face and power as soon as possible, and then married the daughter of Pei Mansion to keep his position in the imperial city.

In fact, what Su Yi didn't know was that it was far more than Pei Wen and King Qi who wanted to find his whereabouts.

Not to mention the reactions of King Qi and Pei Wen, Wang Huan, who had always been very concerned about Su Yi's movements, also jumped up from his chair after getting Su Yi's news.

It was Su Yi's words in the tea stall that reminded him that Wang Huan did not participate in the open and secret battles of the princes, and was able to retreat, and since then, Wang Huan has been sending people to inquire about Su Yi's whereabouts, but Su Yi seems to have disappeared, and his manpower searched all over Dachu, but he failed to find out the news of Su Yi.

After hearing the report from his spies and knowing that Su Yi was sent by Wang Huan to Youzhou as an official, Wang Huan sighed, "It's a pity, I don't want such talents to be recruited by Huang Wenbing's old thief, the old man is a step late, he should have been taken away that day." ”

Wang Huan's son said disappreciatively: "Father, that Su Yi is just a guy who talks on paper, if he is really talented, how can he remain unknown, until this time he was sent by Huang Wenbing's old thief to Youzhou to be a military candidate, and the military waiter ......"

Speaking of this, Wang Huan's son sneered and said: "This kind of person who is not even a junior officer, not to mention his father's subordinates, even I have a large number of subordinates. ”

Wang Huan's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he shouted, "Shut up, what do you know?" Su Yi offended Pei Wen and King Qi, and has been hunted down and killed, if he really makes any noise outside, then it is not worthy of his father's attention, Taoguang is obscure, and he eradicated the Wanjia branch at once, cut off the wings of the Mi family and Pei Wen, this kid has some means. ”

Wang Huan's son stood aside with an unconvinced face, but it was his adviser who said: "My lord is right, this Su Yi does have some means, although the world is big, but at the same time, my lord, Pei Wen and King Qi have searched together for more than a year and have not revealed their whereabouts, which shows that this Su Yi does have some ability." ”

Wang Huan's face softened a little and said: "Yes, it's a pity that this person is already a subordinate of Huang Wenbing, he was protected by Huang Wenbing when he was desperate, Pei Wen and King Qi naturally didn't dare to embarrass him, presumably he would also be grateful to Huang Wenbing and do his best to assist." ”

The strategist's eyes flashed, and he whispered, "Not necessarily. ”

"Oh?" Wang Huan looked puzzled and asked, "What does Ling Zhi mean by this?" ”

The strategist smiled slightly: "If he is really reused by Huang Wenbing, he should be arranged by Huang Wenbing to go to the imperial city to be an official at this moment, and at the very least, he must also arrange a position as a civil official, but this ...... Huang Wenbing actually let him stay in Youzhou and become an unpopular soldier, most of which was just a temporary idea, and if the adults wanted to recruit him, they might not have no chance. ”

Wang Huan laughed when he heard this: "This is reasonable, but the situation in Youzhou is too complicated, I hope he won't let the old man down." ”
