Chapter 552: No Choice to Retreat (Part I)

Liu Yu's whole body was numb, as if he was sealed by an old woman he didn't know that day, but Liu Liniang was obviously "merciful", Liu Yu's paralysis only lasted for a while, and soon he could move his limbs, and the numbness on his body was gradually reduced.

Looking at Liu Liniang again, Liu Liniang at this time was looking at Liu Yu with a very complicated look.

Liu Liniang didn't answer Liu Yu's question, but instead asked, "What is the purpose of the twelve young people going south?" ”

"Fulfill your promise to Liniang."

Liu Liniang frowned slightly, and a somewhat resentful look rose on her face, as if she was blaming Liu Yu for not being honest.

"The slave family asked you to do it that day, and you did it?"

Liu Yue knew that he was a little unreasonable, and what Liu Liniang asked him to do was actually to kill the five major generals in the south, that is, the heads of the five largest landlords.

"It's not that I don't want to help Liniang achieve this wish, it's just ...... One's eyes are bigger than one's stomach.. You also know that the imperial court is already at war with those landlords! ”

The look of annoyance on Liu Liniang's face was even worse, and she said, "It's okay if you don't mention it, if you mention this matter, the slave family will ask you." Why do you press the border with a large army and not send troops, and when you cross the border but not attack the city? ”

Liu Yudeng was speechless, not knowing how to answer. And Liu Liniang continued to be aggressive: "Do you know that it is precisely because of the imperial court's troops that we think we have hope of regaining what was robbed...... Alas! Twelve Shao, you are really too disappointed in the slave family. ”

The imperial court sent troops from Meiguan, and the looting operation began almost at the same time as the southern ethnic minorities, but the soldiers and horses of the imperial court were thundering and raining, which pitted the ethnic minorities in the south. And the Yue tribe was retaliated against by the Dikui. Largely because of this. It's not just the Yue people. Other ethnic minorities also suffered, and it would be unreasonable to blame Liu Yu for this matter, after all, the two sides had not communicated, and the ethnic minorities were originally good at acting, and their looting was not for others but for themselves.

The ethnic minorities in the south tried to fish in troubled waters, but the fish was not caught and many people drowned, so they complained about the people who muddied the waters.

Liu Yu has a lot of truth to say. But at this time, facing Liu Liniang, saying these truths is tantamount to sprinkling salt on a wound.

"Liniang, there are some things you should understand. The imperial court has raised troops year after year, and it has long been beyond its means, and this time it was necessary to raise troops to the south, if it weren't for the fact that I had been corrupt and bent all the way to accumulate some money, I wouldn't even be able to make up military rations and salaries. Even so, the imperial army did not dare to have any unwarranted attrition in the south. My original plan was to first use the army to suppress the local forces, so that they would not dare to act rashly. Then wait for the opportunity to contact the tribes in the south and destroy these landlords together. Return to the tribal homeland...... I did not expect the tribes to move so quickly. I am to blame for this sin.

Along the way, I also felt the losses caused by the southern tribes because of this operation, many villages of the Yue tribe were destroyed by the revenge of the local kui, and many compatriots in the south were homeless. The main reason why I delayed this trip is that I have been helping the Yue people to relocate, and if I can, I want to help them rebuild their homes......"

Liu Yu did not shirk his responsibility, but expressed his own thoughts very sincerely. And what Liu Yu said is not nonsense, he is indeed practicing it.

Liu Liniang originally looked at Liu Yu with a little disappointment in her eyes, but after listening to Liu Yu's words, her anger disappeared a lot.

"So the twelve young people went south this time to contact the southern tribes and resist those landlords together?"

"Exactly." Liu Yu took a few steps forward and approached Liu Liniang, but this time Liu Yu did not directly step forward to hug Liu Liniang, "When I know that Liniang is a Miao person, plus Liniang's letter, I want to contact you and ask Liniang to help me communicate with the tribes in the south. At that time, the country and the people will be safe, and the Yue, Miao and other tribes in the south will also be able to live in peace. ”

Liu Liniang shook her head and said, "Don't you know that those chaotic parties in Chang'an City in the first month are actually our Miao people?" ”

"What about Zhilu Dao? Li Niang, I know that you Miao people may have prejudices against us Han people, but I know that you don't have Li Niang, if it weren't for Li Niang's heart towards me, how could you leak the whereabouts of the clansmen? It is precisely because this represents your sincerity, Liniang, that I do not have the slightest embarrassment for them, because I know that countering violence with violence will not eliminate national prejudices. I just want to tell them with practical actions that the imperial court is willing to accept the Miao people, no matter what they have done, as long as they still recognize themselves as the people of the Great Shun Dynasty! ”

Liu Yu said, Liu Liniang's face showed a little moved, but there was also a smile that was almost helpless. This complicated expression made Liu Yu uncertain, he didn't know whether Liu Liniang was moved by him, or blamed him for saying it too late, or some other message.

Liu Liniang sighed and said: "No wonder so many women are obsessed with you, just your mouth has an infinite charm...... Alas! ”

When Liu Yu heard this, it seemed that Liu Liniang was also "fascinated" by his words, Liu Yu was about to strike while the iron was hot, but a very sharp whistle suddenly came from outside the road. Hearing this sound, Liu Liniang's face immediately changed, as if some kind of signal came. Liu Yu chuckled in his heart, thinking to himself that it could be that the mountain bandits around Yizhou City came over at night?

Liu Liniang said with a serious expression: "I'll talk about it later, so I'll leave for the time being......"

Liu Liniang said, and jumped out of the window, but Liu Yue couldn't chase after him. At this time, the entire merchant hall was already in chaos, which seemed to have confirmed Liu Yu's thoughts.

Liu Yu scolded while loading the short gun with bullets: "I came to rob it yesterday, and I came to rob it today, and I don't pick a time." It's a good thing to ruin Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is playing with you! ”

Liu Yu originally thought that he would be able to bring Liu Liniang back today, but who knew that Lu Dao actually ran into trouble, Liu Yu said that he was playing with his life, but he didn't really think so, at this time he still chose safety first.

Liu Yu came out of the room, and the guards outside didn't know what was going on, and at this time, the people downstairs were not fleeing to the backyard, but seemed to be coming out to see the excitement.

"What's going on?" Liu Yu grabbed a guy from a merchant hall and asked.

"Nongli Bilali......" The guy said a few words in words that Liu Yu didn't understand, and impatiently broke free of Liu Yu's hand holding his clothes, and the person also rushed downstairs.

Liu Yu was inexplicable, so he also took someone out.

On the first quarter of June, the moon sets in the western mountains, and it is not yet midnight. However, the moonlight is also extraordinarily bright, even a half-moon sinking in the west illuminates the dim streets of Yizhou City, and not far from the merchant hall, I saw a group of people who seemed to be beating and fighting there. And a group of five big and three thick men surrounded several people in alien costumes in the middle.

Liu Yugang came out to see the excitement with the flow of people, and even Husheng immediately brought someone over to check the situation, Liu Yu took a closer look and didn't understand what was going on. The opposite side immediately began to enter the grappling again, Liu Yu carefully identified from those figures, and immediately found that one of them seemed to be familiar, and then looked closely, it seemed to be Mi Er, a girl from the Baiyue tribe who had just been separated for a few days.

"Brother, brother, it's Mier." Duo Lin, who was not afraid of danger, also came out with Lian Husheng and the others, and suddenly pulled Liu Yu's arm and shouted.

Liu Yu began to be confused, shouldn't Mi Er follow his clan to Zhaoluo, and then rely on the territory of the Miao people to make a living, how could he come here in the middle of the night for no reason?

"Stop!" Liu Yu shouted, and the person also took a few steps forward.

At this time, the part of the people who were surrounded took advantage of the chaos to kill, and several men desperately protected Mi Er, who was already injured, so that Mi Er could come to Liu Yu's side. Mi Er saw Liu Yu, his face showed a little surprise, and the steps under the light feet of the person began to float, Liu Yu stepped forward and hugged Mi Er, Mi Er also seemed to have finally found a place to rely on, Mi Er said with all his might: "Pay the house, save ......"

I didn't say anything to save, the person was already unconscious. At this time, Liu Yue wanted Lian Husheng and others to save Mier's clansmen, but Liu Yue raised his head and found that Mi'er's clansmen had been cut down to the ground and had no way to live.

At this time, those men who surrounded and killed the Yue people wanted to rush to this side with blood-stained knives, but when they saw the battle at the door, they still stopped. At this time, at the gate of the merchant house, there were not only Liu Yu's soldiers, but also the guards of other caravans and the armed forces of the ground guards, and there were only thirty or forty people who came, less than half of the people at the gate of the merchant hall, so they did not dare to act rashly.

At this time, Liu Yu can't do it without permission. Because the identity of the person who came has not yet been clarified, if there is a conflict, I don't know who the people behind him will help, and if it is the enemy on the back of the abdomen, it will be much more troublesome.

"Hey! Give us that girl! A leader-like figure on the other side shouted. One of them gestured to Liu Yu with the knives in their hands.

Liu Yu snorted coldly: "She is my friend, you killed my friend's clansmen, I didn't settle accounts with you, you still dare to ask for someone?" ”

"Damn, you think we won't dare to do it if there are so many of you? I might as well tell you, there are all our people around, and your little earthen city can be destroyed in an instant, do you believe it or not? ”

The man said in a threatening tone, and his words were fierce and intimidating, but when he said this, it was tantamount to admitting that he was not a native of Yizhou City and belonged to outsiders. Then Liu Yu has nothing to fear.

Liu Yu was about to make a move, but the guide Lao Fang immediately came over and pulled Liu Yu's arm and said, "Don't be in charge." Di Bao said that the person who came did not know the identity, and it should be resolved first, otherwise we would offend people of unknown origin for no reason, and they would be the enemies here, not only would they not help us out, but they would also fall into the ground. ”

Liu Yuxin said that the land security of Yizhou City is really timid and afraid, could it be that these people are in the same group as the land security? Liu Yu was thinking about it, and in the direction of Liu Yu's side, a white figure walked from the other side of the street, this figure was dressed in men's clothes but also graceful, like a dusty figure coming by moonlight.

It is Liu Liniang who is dressed in men's clothes. Seeing Liu Liniang, the most excited thing was not Liu Yu, but Qu Ning not far behind Liu Yu, Qu Ning didn't want to see the lover in his dreams, so he stepped forward to greet him, Qu Ning just opened his legs, but was stopped by Liu Yu with his hand.
