Chapter 47: Five Families Quarrel
On the bank of the Heishui River at the junction of Yaodong in Guanbei, the head of the wind group stood on the high platform and looked at the other side of the river.
"It's been three months, and there is no news of Deacon Ding? The Luofeng Society and the Qing Gang joined forces to fight us, and the Ding Jie envoy was also dragged down by the Tang Gate and the Red Games, if Deacon Ding's reinforcements did not come, this stalemate situation would not be able to be broken at all. Feng Qiyuan asked.
"The Iron-Blooded Army attacked Xu Huai, and Deacon Ding knew that with Yaodong's current situation, he didn't have the strength to fight with the Iron-Blooded Army at all, so he had to give up Xu Huai and withdraw to Yaodong. But Si Qinghai is very unstable, the Qing Gang and the sailors of the Tang Sect are cruising around, and it may not be so easy for Deacon Ding to withdraw. However, Deacon Ding has always been cautious, and the strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army in the Dejia Guard is still there, as long as it takes some time, he will definitely hear the news of Deacon Ding. Zhai Li recovered.
"I also hope so, now that Yaodong is in civil strife, and the Iron and Blood Army is attacking from the outside, if there is a problem with Deacon Ding's troops, I am afraid that the entire Yaodong will change. Our Windrush Regiment and Dejia Guard can also be regarded as sharing honor and disgrace, and if something happens to the two Lord Ding, we will definitely not be able to live in peace. Let your brothers, continue to attack, and see if you can find an opportunity to break through the blockade of the Luofeng Society, as long as our troops in Guanbei and the Tiger and Leopard Army of Ding Jie's envoy will reconcile, there will still be a chance to defeat the others. Feng Zhuyuan said.
"Hey, the situation is pretty good, why would Dante do something to the others. Now he couldn't kill those people, but instead made Yaodong fall into the chaos of war. It's good now, Xu Huai has also been lost, even if Ding Jie's envoy really settles the four families, I'm afraid Yaodong's strength will be greatly weakened. Zhai Li sighed.
"The Ding Jie envoy has the meaning of looking at the world and annexing the eight wildernesses, and the other four families have their own plans, often secretly making bad things and sabotaging the actions of the Ding Jie envoy. After so many years of fighting, but the war against the Iron and Blood Army, no progress has been made at all, doesn't this explain the problem? But Ding Jie is really anxious this time, those four families are also deeply rooted in Yaodong, and if they want to settle them in a short time, how can it be so easy? Now that the entire Yaodong is in chaos, I'm afraid that Ding Jie's envoy will regret it a long time ago. Feng Zhuyuan said.
"But Captain, we also have to make plans. The situation in Yaodong is critical, and the two Ding adults are not sure of victory. But if the two Ding adults fail, where do we go from here? Whether to continue to fight against the four families of Yaodong, or to find another master, so as to have a future. Zhai Lichai said worriedly.
"We've already betrayed the Breez once, can we betray a second time? The first time we could say that we were forced, but the second time we really couldn't find a reason. If we were thought to be capricious little people, then the very end of my wheal would be completely destroyed. Feng Zhuyuan said.
"I understand what the regiment commander means, but we still can't help but make plans. If the four of them join forces, we won't have any chance. Let the wheal be destroyed at our hands, and we will indeed become sinners of the wheal. Zhai Lichai said.
"In a word, we must advance and retreat together with the two Lord Ding until the last moment. If the two Ding adults really fail, let's talk about it then. Whether to compromise with the four of them or defect to the Predator Army, everything will have to wait for the outcome of this battle before the decision can be made. Feng Zhuyuan said.
"Then listen to the head of the regiment. However, the head of the regiment must remember that the inheritance of our Swift Wind Regiment is the most important, and no matter how many times we change to a strong person, our Swift Wind Tun cannot be destroyed. Zhai Li persuaded.
Feng Zhuyuan was just silent after hearing this, with a difficult look on his face, but after a while, he still nodded, which was considered approval.
Just then, a messenger arrived at the Windrush camp, but strangely enough, the messenger was accompanied by a woman.
When Feng Zhuyuan saw the messenger coming, and saw the woman beside the messenger, he frowned, and then went down the high platform and returned to the big tent.
After careful questioning, I learned that the team guarding the border had encountered a team of Gu Chayi, and the woman was caught alive from that team.
"Didn't I tell you to try to avoid Gu Chayi's team in the future; Even if you can't avoid it, you just have one eye open and one eye closed. But why, did you bring this woman over? Feng Qiyuan asked.
"When we saw that a group of people were very suspicious, we went forward to investigate, and finally used our swords, but we could only subdue them all. When we knew that these were all Gu Chayi's people, we wanted to let them all go. But the woman didn't leave, she said that he was the daughter of Yaodong scholar Han He, and that he returned to Yaodong this time to save the current situation in Yaodong. We don't dare to hurt her, so we can only bring it here, and it's all up to the head of the regiment. The messenger replied.
"Han He's daughter? I've heard of that guy. But how could Han's daughter have anything to do with Gu Chayi? She also wants to save Yaodong's current chaotic situation, which is big enough. You brought her here, I really want to ask. Feng Zhuyuan said.
The messenger listened to Feng Qiyuan's words and withdrew, and soon entered the big tent with Han Taozi.
"Good Captain Fengtuan, the little girl Han Taozi has seen it here." Han Taozi entered the big tent and saluted.
"Are you Han He's daughter? As far as I know, Han He has been lecturing in Xu Huai for the past few years, and he just returned to Yaodong recently, you are his daughter, if you are not with him, why do you have a relationship with Gu Chayi's people? Feng Zhuyuan pretended to be majestic and asked loudly.
"Since my little daughter came to the Central Plains with her father a few years ago, she has been walking in the Central Plains, pursuing the true knowledge in my heart. By chance, I met General Wei Zengwei, so I followed him to Yishan, and thus met the ancient commander of Gu Cha. I was going back to Yaodong this time, and General Wei and the ancient commanders were afraid that I would be in danger, so they sent people to protect me. Other than that, I don't have any more to do with the two of them, and I also ask the wind commander Mingjian. Han Taozi explained.
"You met General Wei? General Wei has been okay all these years? I only heard that he arrived in Yishan, and I haven't heard from him since. Can you tell me about General Wei? When Feng Zhuyuan heard the word Wei Zeng, he became very excited for a while, and hurriedly asked.
Han Taozi was very excited when he saw Feng Zhuyuan's expression, and he didn't seem to have malicious intent, so he told him some news about Wei Zeng that he knew.
"General Wei seems to have been okay over the years, so I can rest assured. I was ashamed of him back then, and I really had no choice but to know that he was still safe, and I could be at peace for a while. Miss Han said that she was studying, I don't know what she has learned over the years? Feng Zhuyuan's expression slowed down, and the tone of his speech to Han Taozi was not as cold as just now.
"I have learned how to heal this troubled world, and I returned to Yaodong this time to change the current situation in Yaodong." Han Taozi replied.
"You say that quite a lot. However, Yaodong's chaotic situation now is that those high-ranking big people are helpless, how can you change it? If you want to go back to Yaodong, I'll send someone to send you over immediately. I don't think you have any hatred with the people of the Luofeng Society, and they won't embarrass you for your father's sake. Feng Zhuyuan said.
"I know that Captain Wind doesn't believe me, and I can understand that, but if I talk nonsense, it will only make fun of people. I heard that Commander Wind has been trying to break through the blockade of the Luofeng Society, and wants to fight the Haw Par Army, I wonder if Commander Wind has a countermeasure now? Han Taozi said with a slight smile.
"Military affairs are not something that you should be involved in as a little woman. I have no choice now, but as long as Lord Ding Zhuhuang's reinforcements arrive, all problems will be solved. "The wind is far away.
"Yes, as long as Lord Ding Zhuhuang's reinforcements arrive, everything will be solved. But in case Lord Ding Zhuhuang's reinforcements can't come, is Captain Feng planning to watch the tiger fight across the mountain? The two Ding adults have just lost Xu Huai's land, and the strength of the other four families has not decreased at all, and in the long run, the two Ding adults will inevitably be unable to support it. Kanbei is the last reliance of the two Dings, but the head of the wind has been waiting, isn't this really good? Han Taozi said.
"The people of the Luofeng Society and the Green Gang have joined forces to fight against our Windrush Regiment, otherwise do you think I don't want to rush to Dejia City to support the two Lord Ding? I didn't mean not to go now, I really couldn't break through. Feng Zhuyuan explained.
"If the Wind Regiment Leader concentrates all the strength of the Wind Regiment and fights desperately against the people of the Luofeng Society, won't he really be able to break through their blockade?" Han Taozi asked rhetorically.
"The Iron Blood Army is still eyeing the tiger, if our Windrush is desperate, it will be good to succeed, if it fails, the entire Kanbei will be in danger, I can't take this risk." Feng Zhuyuan said with a sad face.
"I don't mean to let Captain Wind take any risks? It's just that the Dejia Guard is now isolated, and if the Wind Commander is still waiting, and when it comes to the end, there will be no room for recovery. If I tell the Wind Commander that the Wind Leader can break through the Luofeng Society's barrier without paying a lot of losses, dare to ask the Wind Commander if he dares to do it? Han Taozi said in the end, just watched the wind chase away with interest.
"So, you have a better way. Say it and listen to it, and if it's really possible, I'll go back and do it. But what can you understand as a woman? If it's whimsical, I won't bother you. Feng Zhuyuan said.
Han Taozi sighed secretly, sure enough, all the troubles lie in the word "interests", if you want to do something alone, you must understand the interests and disadvantages in a person's heart.
Han Taozi paused for a moment, and then said the plan he had come up with. Feng Zhuyuan listened to Han Taozi's words, thought about it carefully, and finally felt that it was feasible, so he agreed.
"Your idea is a bit peculiar, but it seems to me that it is feasible. Our Windrush Regiment is also loyal to the two of Master Ding, so let's try it the way you say, maybe we can really get something. Don't leave yet, stay with me for now. If you succeed, I will definitely ask Lord Ding for credit for you. Feng Zhuyuan said.
"If you fail, I will be a justification for your exculpation, a scapegoat." Han Taozi said secretly in her heart and didn't say it. He just respectfully thanked the wind and stayed in the camp of the Windblast Regiment.
At the same time, far away in a port southeast and west of Yao, Ding Zhuhuang was trying to find a way to go north.
At the beginning of the civil strife in Yaodong, Ding Zhuhuang was fighting against the Iron Blood Army in Yanbei. After receiving the news, he immediately ordered Feng Qiyuan to cross the Heishui River from Guanbei to support Ding Zhuqing, while he himself led the army to drive out the forces of the four families from the land of Xu Huai, and then waited for the opportunity to return to Yaodong.
However, the Luofeng Society and the Green Gang joined forces to fight against the Windgroup, and Feng Zhuyuan failed to break through, and was always dragged on the front line of the Heishui River. And the Iron Blood Army also took advantage of the civil strife in Yaodong to attack it.
Ding Zhuhuang knew that without the support of Yaodong's own people, he would not be able to defeat the Iron Blood Army on his own, so after a little resistance, he made a plan to abandon the land of Xu Huai and return to Yaodong.
It's just that most of the ports that travel between Yaodong and Xuhuai are controlled by the Tang Men and the Qing Gang, and the difficulties faced by Ding Zhuhuang if he wants to withdraw to Yaodong are not at all.
When Suicheng was conquered by the Iron Army, Ding Zhuhuang could not delay any longer, so he ordered his troops to cross the sea and return to Yaodong.
When Ding Zhuqing crossed the sea with Ding Zhuhuang, he deliberately sent troops to drag the main force of the Tang Men and the Qing Gang, but the Siqing Sea was boundless, and there were still many dangers along the way.
Along the way, you can often meet the sailors of the Tang Sect and the Qing Gang, and after a fight, Ding Zhuhuang finally arrived at Yaodong himself. But he was greeted by an endless number of enemy troops, and he himself was trapped in a small port by the sea.
"We don't have much food left, we must find a way to break through the enemy's barrier and join up with our big brother. Dejia City has enough food to sustain us for several years. As long as there is enough food and grass, with our troops, it will not be difficult to defeat the other four. Big brother's side, and the wind group's side, is there any news? Ding Zhuhuang said to the generals.
"There is still no progress on the Windrush Regiment's side, but the Ding Jiewan has already led the elite of the Tiger and Leopard Army to come. With the cooperation of the envoys, it is not a problem for us to break through the encirclement of the enemy in front of us. An adjutant replied.
"That's fine, we're already at our door, how can we be blocked and can't get into the house? The generals obeyed the order, followed me to join the eldest brother, and then went north to meet the bhoof. As long as our three troops gather together, those four little people will not think of any more ability. Ding Zhuhuang said, and then led the troops who had returned from afar to the direction of Dejia City. (To be continued.) )
