Chapter 537: Heaven is Near, Nanfan is Far Away

When Quan Yong outside the city and the Heavenly Dao disciples in the city were about to launch a total battle, the war in Quanzhou City also spread. There are hundreds of thousands of Han people in Quanzhou City, and there are only tens of thousands of Bai Fan who believe in Tianfangjiao. Previously, the Tianfang Sect Bai Fan attacked him unprepared, took advantage of Quan Yong's outing, and took the city in one fell swoop, and also brutally suppressed the Han leadership forces in the city. Wang Lixin, the prefect of Quanzhou, was arrested, and the officials and clans who remained in Quanzhou were slaughtered to ensure that the Han people were leaderless.

But they just left out a force that could not be missed, the Han maritime merchants who were organized by the Heavenly Taoist Sect! In fact, it can't be regarded as an omission, but they are simply powerless to suppress the Han maritime business group headed by the 18 families in the South China Sea.

Even if they barely wiped out their forces in Quanzhou City, when they reached the sea, the eighteen families in the South China Sea would unite with the Beiming Navy to retaliate, and it would be difficult for Quanzhou Baifan to evacuate safely to the Three Buddhas.

But the two brothers Pu Shougeng and Pu Shousheng never thought that the eighteen families in the South China Sea, who had been fighting for a long time and couldn't pee in a pot at all, would unite against Quanzhou Baifan this time! What was even more unexpected was that Chen Dexing actually sent the elite of steel armor to infiltrate Quanzhou......

This kind of dispatch of a small number of elite troops, combined with a large number of religious believers, to launch a riot in the enemy city and seize the city...... Or even an action of state control. It has only appeared once in Chinese history, and that is the Yellow Turban Rebellion that occurred at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Many prefectures and counties will be seized by the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and in Zhang Jiao's original plan, he was also preparing to launch an uprising in Luoyang and occupy the capital of the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop!

In the turmoil that followed the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were few similar occurrences. So in the thinking of the brothers Pu Shougeng and Pu Shousheng. It is unlikely that Chen Dexing will pin his hopes on the Heavenly Daoists, who are not very convinced, and if he wants to capture Quanzhou, he will definitely send a large army to land from the sea.

And the Pujia faction in Taiwan Prefecture in various parts of the fine work. There was no sign that the Northern Ming army was moving southward in a big way.

But just when Pu Shougeng thought that he had taken Quanzhou and everything was under control. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, a steel armor soldier from the Northern Ming Dynasty appeared in Quanzhou City! Although the number of people is limited, the effect of using it on the blade is excellent. Moreover, the rebellious Tianfang Sect Baifan is also dominated by rabble, and the real elite is five or six hundred Mamluks. It seems that more than a hundred of them have died now, and they were still killed in a hand-to-hand battle with about three hundred Beiming steel armor soldiers!

When he heard the news, Pu Shougeng even felt that the end of the world had come.

However, Pu Shougeng has experienced strong winds and waves after all, especially the tests of several major failures have honed his mind. The momentary feeling of collapse was suppressed at once. Now that the Northern Ming Dynasty has intervened in the Quanzhou Rebellion. So what we have to consider now is how to "get out" from Quanzhou. In particular, the forces of the Pu family can retreat safely from Quanzhou! If the Pu family wants to make a career in Nanfan, Tianzhu or Dashi Country in the future, then real strength is indispensable. This power is mainly in two aspects, one is money, and the other is people - the first thing to keep is of course the Pu family's own people, and the second is to keep important partners.

As for the unimportant Celestial Cultists and Mamluk mercenaries in Quanzhou City, as long as they have money, how much do they need overseas?

After thinking all this clearly, Pu Shougeng quickly summoned his eldest son Pu Shiwen, his in-laws Ma Shoushan, and the leader of the Mamluks, Asharaf, to the heavily guarded chessboard garden.

Asharaf looked at Pu Shougeng. Waiting for him to give the order. Pu Shou Geng settled down. Waved his hand lightly: "Asharaf...... Take all the Mamluks, and I will give you another 3,000 men, all of whom will be under your command to counterattack Tumen Street, and you must not let Kafil, who occupies Tumen Street, take Tumen...... If it doesn't work, set it on fire. Burn Kafir to death...... Well! I see? ”

He stood there, gritting his teeth and giving the order to set fire if it didn't work, and then ordered three more temporarily appointed captains of a thousand. Let them follow Asharaf's orders. Asharaf stiffly bent over and nodded, greeting. With about 400 Mamluks and 3,000 Quanzhou Baifan, whose morale was a little different from what he looked at, he left the chessboard garden and went to Tumen Street.

Pu Shougeng dusted off the non-existent dust on his body. Shaking his head and whispering, "It seems that this Ashharaf will soon be able to go to heaven, and the true god will give him a generous reward for his struggle." It's a little enviable......"

Indeed, Paradise Road is close! There are thousands of red-eyed Quan Yong outside Quanzhou City, and there are still an unknown number of Heavenly Dao disciples in the city, as well as about three hundred steel-armored soldiers...... It's really easy to get to heaven!

And the road to Nanban is very long and dangerous!

He turned his head, looked at Ma Shoushan, and said with a wry smile: "This brother has tired Maher." ”

Maher is the sutra name of Mashou Mountain, which is the official name used in the Celestial Sect.

"Abdul," Ma Shoushan also called Pu Shou Geng's scripture name, and of course he understood the meaning - from now on, he and Pu Shou Geng were no longer Chinese. "What's the deal? Even if there is no change today, where can the Ma family be tolerated after the arrival of the thief Chen? ”

"We ...... Let's go! Go out of the city from the north gate and go to Putian. ”

The retreat was planned a long time ago, and it was not to take any of the three bays and twelve ports in Quanzhou. Instead, he left from the port of Putian, which was more than a hundred miles away. This Putian port was also one of the world's top ten ports in this era - six of the world's top ten ports at this time were in the Southern Song Dynasty, namely Quanzhou, Mingzhou, Guangzhou, Fuzhou, Leizhou and Putian. The wealth of the Southern Song Dynasty can be seen from this.

Before the Quanzhou Rebellion, Pu Shougeng, Ma Shoushan and others had already considered various possibilities. Among them, there were also failures, and there were also Northern Ming naval divisions blockading Quanzhou Zhugang...... Considering the strength of the Beiming Nanyang Fleet, Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan did not dare to concentrate their most precious spinnain in Quanzhou, but sailed to Putian, where the islands and bays were dense, before Quanzhou was in chaos, looking for an empty and uninhabited bay to shelter from the wind. Wait until the matter is settled in Quanzhou, and then return to Quanzhou Thornton Port. If there is a change in Quanzhou, then the Pu family and the Ma family will directly withdraw to Putian and leave China from there.

And not to Srivijaya, but to the Pujia stronghold on Luzon - this time Chen Dexing is afraid to be disappointed!

The Pu family's plan is very good, but it is not an easy task to retreat more than a hundred miles! After all, the Pu family and the Ma family were both maritime merchants, not Mongolians on horseback. And now there is a great chaos in Quanzhou City, and a big war has broken out in the Tumen area, and many children of the Pu and Ma clans have been involved in the battle.

Ma Shoushan asked, "What about Ishark?" ”

Isshak is Pu Shousheng, and he is now supervising the war with his son in Tumen.

"Take Wang Lixin and exchange him for Ishak."

This is just self-deception, Wang Lixin is just a civil official sent by the Southern Song Dynasty court. If the discipline of the Song Dynasty was not broken, the respect of the government was naturally important. But now...... Quanzhou regiment Lian Zhao and Yu will release the killer because of a civil official of the imperial court?

Pu Shougeng sighed and said, "Don't inform everyone...... Take as many people as you can gather here in the chessboard garden, and pick up valuable ones, as for the women of the Zhao family...... Kill them all! ”

Most of the core members of the Pu and Ma families have now gathered in the chessboard garden. In addition, the gold and silver of the two families and the wealth and women plundered by the people and horses of the two families from the Quanzhou clan are now concentrated in the chessboard garden. All kinds of property are added together, and the value is no less than tens of millions, and it is impossible to take them all away.

As for the women of the Zhao family, many of them have foot binding (different from the Ming and Qing dynasties, not so perverted, but the action is still not very convenient), and they cry and make trouble, and it is unrealistic to take them away...... As for the hatred of the sect in the Quanzhou group training, it can't be resolved anyway, so don't worry about them chasing and killing to Nanfan - but then they really chased and killed!

"That's all there is to it." Ma Shoushan didn't say anything, just sighed. Anyway, there is so much milk, honey, fruit, and virgins in heaven that I can imagine that it can satisfy the needs of these martyrs......

……

And at this moment, Pu Shousheng and his son Pu Shili are really almost in heaven. They have been wiped out, and they have been kidnapped and captured by a group of Southern Song Dynasty sons who are about to go crazy.

The reason why the battle of Tumen ended so quickly was because Zhao and Yu, who were red-eyed, really fought. He personally climbed the ladder to attack the city with a shield and a sword!

The sons of the Zhao family in the army also had close relatives in the city, so they all fought for their lives to enter the city. Led by them, Qianquan Yong also attacked as if he was crazy. Dozens of ladders were erected at the same time, and everyone climbed up as if they were dying, but with just a charge, hundreds of people rushed to the city wall to start hand-to-hand combat!

And the Heavenly Dao disciples are not weak, they are a sea of people tactics, three hundred steel-armored soldiers are at the head, and the crowd of people rolling in the back is surging forward. When the Heavenly Fang Sect Bai Fan saw this formation, he was already scared to death, they were not a serious army, would they not be afraid to see so many people? As a result, the "breastwork" suddenly changed hands, and the crowd swarmed along the stairs on the inner side of the city wall to the city gate.

Pu Shousheng and Pu Shili are not good generals either, and when they saw this scene, they were the first to coax and wanted to break through and escape, but their subordinates immediately collapsed and fled in all directions. The two of them were so frightened that they couldn't run away at all, and they were caught alive by Quan Yong, who swarmed up, and Zhao and Yu were caught alive......

"What! What the! An'er is dead! An'er died......"

At this time, Zhao and Yu had already received the news that their only son was beheaded by Pu Shiwen, and the whole person shook and almost fainted, and then he stood up straight, looked at Pu Shousheng and Pu Shili viciously, and raised a big knife with a curled blade, "Kill!" Kill! Kill! Put these two people to death first! Slaughtered the people of Quanzhou again! Not a single one to stay! (To be continued......)
