His sister's words made Zhang Fei speechless for a while, because what his sister said was very reasonable. Speaking of which, it was my own idea to leave the relatively safe Jiangnan and come to Jinghu this time. And the reason why I made such a decision was because I was tired of constantly fleeing and hiding, and wanted to be my former self and let others know that he was still a man who stood up to the sky.

Although there is a saying that "the situation is stronger than people", in the face of opponents who are far stronger than themselves, temporary evasion and hiding are also a last resort. But since the "Feiyantang" failed to get the news of the Beiping Army's southward movement in time, and Zhao Kuangyin, who had the opportunity to take Kaifeng and sit on the dragon chair, became the meat on the chopping block of the Beiping Army, so that he finally had to leave in a hurry before the matter was revealed, he almost never stopped fleeing for more than a year, and before crossing the river, he barely stayed in one place for more than ten days.

After escaping from Zhao Kuangyin's rebel camp, in line with the idea that the most dangerous place is the safest place, he first took his henchmen to the north and returned to his cheap "father-in-law" Zhang Yongde to take refuge in Shanzhou, planning to wait for the dust to settle in Kaifeng, and then decide where to go. I never thought that it was my own decision that made me meet my sister-in-law who sent me to inquire about the news outside the city, and learned that my little sister was safe and sound, hiding in a Taoist temple in Damao Mountain. So, in addition to the surprise, he immediately took his subordinates to the north and joined his sister-in-law.

It's just that the joy of the reunion of the brother and sister has not faded, and the news of the unhodd has followed. Zhao Kuangyin's army was defeated and died, the Beiping army was stationed in Kaifeng, and the "Qingyuan" brothers controlled the Chai and Zhou dynasties. The "Qingyuan" brothers' control of the Chai Zhou dynasty means that this group of guys who regard themselves as a thorn in their eyes, a thorn in the flesh, and even more regard their sisters as enemies of life and death continue to order the "Dark Feather Hall" to hunt down their brothers and sisters, and at the same time, they can also use the official Liliang, which is far larger and has a farther tentacles than the "Dark Feather Hall", to want their own brothers and sisters and even all the remnants of the "Feiyan Hall". Once the Chai Zhou court's sea fishing documents were distributed to all the prefectures and counties within its territory, and then assisted by the "Dark Feather Hall", their own brothers and sisters, their cronies, and even the remaining liliang of the "Feiyan Hall" who still obeyed their command would become "street rats", and unless they escaped into the deep mountains and old forests, they would never have peace.

For the safety of himself and his subordinates, there was a few days when he and his sister even killed the Taoist aunts and monks in Yuqingguan and Huanglong Temple, replaced them, and lived in seclusion in the mountains. But first, whether it is Yuqingguan or Huanglong Temple, there are many extraordinary protectors and temple protectors, and it is not easy for these people to kill with one blow - even if they have a mental calculation and no intention, they are not sure; Second, these two temples are well-known in the local area, usually come to worship God and Buddha of good men and women in an endless stream, even if they can kill the Taoist aunt and monks, in front of those who are very familiar with these two temples, it is very difficult not to show any horses' feet; Thirdly, from the daily chat, their own sister was even more surprised to find that the Zhou sisters and brothers living in the Yuqingguan and Huanglong Temple had a very complicated relationship with the Beiping Army and the "Qingyuan" brothers, and the envoys from the Beiping Army would come to visit the sisters and brothers in the temple every once in a while. Even if he can deceive those believers on his side, it is impossible to hide the past in front of the messenger of the Beiping Army, who knows the situation of the temple well. In addition, the brother and sister were unwilling to escape into a remote place, and died in obscurity in the deep mountains and old forests. Therefore, after careful weighing, repeated consideration, and trying to rekindle the hatred of the Zhou brothers and sisters, especially the elder sister Zhou Yihan, for the "Qingyuan" brothers, the brothers and sisters left Damaoshan with a group of their subordinates and went to Yangzhou, which was the safest place to settle down at that time, hoping that Li Chongjin was very dissatisfied with the entry of the Beiping Army into Kaifeng, and it was likely that he would not seriously carry out the favorable conditions of the imperial court that wanted his brothers and sisters, so as to hide in Yangzhou for as long as possible.

Although in order to avoid the pursuit of the "Dark Feather Hall" and the Chai Zhou Mansion, his group had to avoid the city market town on the way from Damao Mountain to Yangzhou, had to travel at night, and had to walk in those inaccessible mountains and jungles, and suffered a lot for this, and lost a lot of subordinates due to accidents and "desertions", but finally succeeded in entering Yangzhou City. In Yangzhou City, Li Chongjin strengthened the city defenses, vigorously fought against horses, and did not post wanted notices for his brothers and sisters at the city gate like other states and counties, which made his group breathe a sigh of relief and felt that the hardships they had endured before were worth it. So much so that after their brothers and sisters collected the shili of the original "Feiyantang" in Yangzhou City, they even had the idea of joining Li Chongjin and helping him when he competed with the Beiping Army. It's just that because I can't figure out the other party's attitude towards "Feiyantang" for a while, I haven't taken action for the time being.

Unfortunately, Li Chongjin's behavior angered the "Qingyuan" brothers, so he was soon declared a rebel by the Chai Zhou court and raised troops to fight against him. In the face of the formidable Beiping army led by Wang Kunjun himself, Li Chongjin's fortified city and army were almost powerless to fight back. In just half a day, he was killed in the roar of the Beiping army's artillery. While glad that he did not rashly surrender to him, he had to make up his mind to leave the territory of Chai Zhou and cross the river to Jiangnan to find a place to hide.

Although there is also a "Dark Feather Hall" branch in Jiangnan, and such a branch hall is not one or two, it is still far from the "Dark Feather Hall" Shili in the Central Plains. In addition, the government at all levels in Jiangnan obeyed the orders of the small court of the Southern Tang Dynasty, so naturally they would not carry out the will of the Chai Zhou court to want their brothers and sisters. So during the time when he first arrived in Jiangnan, under the protection of the spies who were still loyal to him in the "Feiyantang" Jiangnan, he and his sister and a group of subordinates brought from Jiangbei lived quite comfortably. Especially after the Zhou family sisters and brothers were seduced from Damao Mountain to Jiangnan by their own sisters, the feeling of finally defeating the "Feiyantang", the Beiping Army, and the "Qingyuan" brothers in something made their brothers and sisters and their subordinates happy and refreshed.

It's just that the time of Meihaode is always short, and within a few days of his brothers and sisters and his subordinates being at ease in Jiangnan, the situation changed again. Seeing that the land of Jinghu was in civil strife, the Chaizhou court, which realized that this was the best time for them to recover the land of Jinghu, immediately ordered Wang Kunjun to lead an army of 50,000 to Jinghu to the south, and smoothly incorporated this land into his own territory. Although the Chai Zhou court temporarily halted its footsteps after taking the land of Jinghu, neither conquering Shu nor attacking Tang, everyone understood its determination to dominate the world. And the debris drifting down the river shows that it is building a large warship, thus exposing its ambition to attack Jiangnan.

Seeing that his new shelter would soon face war, that his hard-won peaceful life would soon be shattered, and that he would soon have to embark on the road of escape again, his siblings and his subordinates were in a very bad mood. However, this bad mood did not last long, and was soon dispelled and replaced by the anger that had been suppressed for a long time, persecuted, and beaten in the chest, and finally exploded in full force. Everyone decided not to blindly run away and hide, but to fight up and fight back with all their might, using all the liliang that their side could mobilize or win over, adding obstacles and difficulties to the Chai Zhou court, the Beiping army, and the "Qingyuan" brothers to dominate the world, so that the other party had to focus on solving the affairs within the Chai Zhou territory, and had no time to continue the conquest of the world, so that their brothers and sisters and their subordinates could have more time to enjoy this comfortable, pleasant, and stable life in Jiangnan. Arrange a safe retreat for yourself, and you will no longer have to worry about fleeing or worrying about your life in the future.

It is precisely with these ideas that his brothers and sisters and his subordinates will set a strategy to try to thwart the ambition of the Chai Zhou court to dominate the world, and leave the prosperous Jinling City as soon as possible, and come in the direction of Jinghu, determined to turn it upside down in the land of Jinghu. And it was I who was the first to put forward this strategy, and it was I who encouraged everyone with the most impassioned and confident words. Now he is looking forward and backward for a small accident, which is really a bit of a fuss, and a little lacking in the courage and mind of a manly husband.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, the expression on Zhang Fei's face became resolute and resolute again, and he said: "What my sister said is reasonable, but she is worried about her brother. In this way, in a few days, we will go to Langzhou with Liu Pinglan. ”
