There are many things in the world that seem like nothing at all to some people, but as heavy as Mount Tai to others.

With Zhou Yuji's experience and understanding, even under the influence of alcohol, he could know that the order was most likely to transfer him from Shanxi. If it is replaced by Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui, Gao Jie, Bai Guangen, and other escape experts, even if there is no order, they will just leave. So far, the imperial court has not executed anyone for the desertion of military generals.

However, for Zhou Yuji, retreating from the battle is a big stain on his life. He could come to Taiyuan from Ningwuguan because Taiyuan was closer to the front line. And if there was an order to transfer him away from the front, it would be a very difficult thing for him.

Zhou Yuji only felt that his scalp was itchy and scratched it hard. Looking at Xiao Mo's enthusiastic gaze, which was almost like a fire, the balance in his heart finally shook, and finally leaned towards the crown prince's side.

"Where are you going to transfer me?" Zhou Yuji asked.

Xiao Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the envelope in front of Zhou Yuji, and said, "Brother, look." ”

Zhou Yuji wiped the wine stain on his hand, took the envelope, opened it and read it carefully, and his heart was even more pounding.

Where is this "appointment"!

This is clearly "running away"!

"Just transfer to Shandong, why do you have to sneak around without going through the imperial court?" Zhou Yuji also had doubts.

"Shandong is still the place of the imperial court, and without the appointment of the imperial court, even the prince is not easy to do at will." Xiao Mo didn't know about Luo Yukun's 5,000 Sichuan Army, but he said vaguely: "Soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, how can they have a lot of truth to say and ask too much?" ”

Zhou Yuji's scalp was numb for a while, and he paced for a long time with the crown prince's handwritten letter.

Xiao Mo stood up and said, "Big brother, where can you still tolerate such hesitation at this time?" A little fame and eternal brilliant deeds, do you still need to think about where to go! ”

Zhou Yuji took a deep breath. Said: "That's it! Brother, let's go! ”

"Good! Soldiers, you are fast! Xiao Mo praised loudly: "Brother is really responsible!" ”

"Brother, when are you leaving?" Zhou Yuji asked.

"I'm afraid that after the thieves attack the city," Xiao Mo said, "When Cai Buyuan is completely dead, I will take him to break out." ”

Zhou Yuji shook his head and said: "When the time comes, the road to break through will be paved with the lives of the soldiers!" It's better to kidnap Cai Maode earlier and just leave. ”

"His Highness wants to take his heart." Xiao Mo thought it was inappropriate.

Zhou Yuji thought about it, but still frowned and said, "It's still not appropriate." You can't keep an eye on him all the time. If he finds a place where no one is there and hangs himself, let alone pay attention, there will be no one left. ”

Xiao Mo was also puzzled: "How is that good?" Can we only take people captive? ”

Zhou Yuji said: "That's all." Besides, this matter is like a thief robbing Mrs. Zhai, which woman is willing to go to the cottage to talk to a bandit? Didn't they all admit it later? No matter how strong Cai Maode is, everyone has arrived in Shandong, can he still die for Shanxi? I don't believe that the kind of scholar who came out of the fat powder array in Jiangnan can be so strong? ”

Xiao Mo nodded slightly: "I'll ask him to patrol the camp tonight." Then take him with you! ”

"Don't worry." Zhou Yuji sat back at the table, stretched out his fingers and dipped the wine, and made a sketch on the table, which was Taiyuan and the surrounding terrain. He said: "Taiyuan will definitely not be able to hold it, rather than cheapening Li Chuang, let's take it!" He nodded in Taiyuan City: "This is the grain depot of the political secretary, we can move as much as we can before leaving!" ”

"The brigade of men and horses carried grain and grass, I am afraid that it will not alarm the other defenders in the city." Xiao Mo said worriedly.

"It was only said that it was transported to the east gate to motivate the soldiers. Even if the enemy does not have any money, he must have rice. "Zhou Yuji is much more sophisticated in the end. In the blink of an eye, a reasonable reason was given.

Xiao Mo and Zhou Yuji agreed that they would each go to their subordinates to finalize the details. Both of them brought personal guards, so they didn't have to worry about the news being revealed. Let people make food early and recuperate, and wait for the evening to go out of the city from the east gate. Xiao Mo also asked Cai Maode to come to inspect the barracks in the evening, and Cai Maode readily agreed.

Seeing that everything was following the established jihua, Xiao Mo's heart was a little unsteady. Something seems to have changed. He only thought that he was thinking too much, but who knew that in the evening, something really happened.

First, the news came that Chen Shangzhi rebelled against Li Zicheng, and Taiyuan Zuihou finally became Li Chuang's vanguard army. General Chen Shangzhi judged the situation. In order to earn a credit in front of the new owner, he led his troops to Taiyuan City overnight and made a gesture of besieging the city.

His siege of the city alarmed the spies lurking around Cai Maode.

Zhang Xiong, the general of the Governor Biao Battalion, was originally a thief and had a secret relationship with Li Chuang. Seeing that the Dashun army surrounded Taiyuan City, he took a hanging basket from the south gate of the division to go down to the city and went straight to the camp.

Because he had a plan, the gunpowder and oil in Taiyuan City were stored on the south gate. As soon as Zhang Xiong left, the remnants of his party set fire to each other. The wind fueled the fire, and in the blink of an eye, the south gate of Taiyuan was lost.

Cai Maode had just come out of the guard camp of the East Palace, and when he saw this situation, he naturally ordered someone to go to the south gate to extinguish the fire and guard the door. However, Chen Shangzhi outside the city had already begun to attack the city from all sides, and the cannon was rumbling.

The elite of the standard camp was in the hands of Chen Shangzhi, and most of the rest followed Zhang Xiong to defect, and the thieves climbed the city tower in a blink of an eye.

Cai Maode learned that the thieves had ascended the city tower and understood that the general trend had gone, and he had hoped that the elite soldiers of the East Palace guard battalion would be able to resist for a while, but who knew that he didn't even have a chance to move. He took out a notebook from his arms, turned to his friend and staff member Jia Shizhang and said, "This is the testament that I wrote a long time ago, and I asked Brother Jia to send it to Beijing for me." Jia Shizhang took the watch, knowing that Cai Maode had already had the heart of death, so he just bowed and turned around to leave.

Of course, Xiao Mo can't let Cai Maode's testament be sent out, once it spreads, Cai Maode will have to die if he doesn't die. He hurriedly stopped Jia Shizhang and said, "The ministry should be left to be useful, and try to recover!" ”

Cai Maode shook his head and said: "Losing the frontier and disappointing my emperor, is there any reason to steal life?" Let's go, all of you. ”

The East Palace guard battalion had already been assembled, so they blocked the streets on all sides, preparing to break through to the east gate. Xiao Mo was about to pick up Cai Maode by the waist, when suddenly a team of people ran from the periphery, and shouted from afar: "Is it Cai Minyuan!" I'm the right time! I'll make a way for the ministry and go to the east gate!" ”

Ying Shi Sheng was originally a student of Liaoyang, fled to Guannei, and was promoted by Cai Maode to the soap subordinate, and was the deputy chief soldier of the Chinese army. He held a spear in his hand, rushed in front of him, and let his own soldiers fight his way behind him, and went straight to the east gate.

The east gate was guarded by Zhou Yuji, so naturally it did not fall so quickly. The thieves hit the hard nail and naturally rushed to the south gate, which had been wide open. Xiao Mo ordered people to line up, protect Cai Maode in the middle, and rushed to the east gate. Along the way, they met some small officials and officials in Shanxi, and they simply hugged them together and rushed to the east gate.

Cai Maode refused to leave when he arrived at the mouth of Tanshikou, and said to everyone: "I have been studying the Tao for many years, and I have investigated life and death. Today is my fatal time, so go away. Then he drew his sword and killed himself.

Xiao Mo is a family heirloom kung fu, and his shots are all kinds of grappling joints, and he unloaded Cai Maode's sword at the moment, and reprimanded: "Ministry!" The crown prince values your great talent, which is why the lowly rank risked his life to keep you safe! If you die for fame, how can you be worthy of the emperor's grace! ”

Cai Maode sat on the ground and howled, was picked up by Xiao Mo, and ran away with resistance on his shoulder. Ying Shisheng had already killed his wife and children, and he wanted to die with Cai Maode, but seeing that Xiao Mo refused to let Cai Maode die, he couldn't take his own life in vain, and still opened the way for the team in front.

Zhou Yuji had already opened the city gate, and the five hundred families were all cavalry, arrayed outside the city gate. Chen Shangzhi knew that this Shanxi general soldier was powerful, and he didn't dare to fight against him, so he simply gave way and only attacked Taiyuan City from the northwest and south.

Zhou Yuji saw a group of people coming out of the city from a distance, found Xiao Mo by the firelight, and shouted: "You guys go first!" I'm coming to the back of the temple. ”

Xiao Mo was not polite to him, knowing that Zhou Yuji's cavalry was running fast, but they were just marching towards the east. When passing by with Zhou Yuji, Xiao Mo said: "Let's do it according to the noon plan!" ”

Zhou Yuji responded, patted his horse and changed his formation, and protected behind the guard camp of the East Palace.

Ying Shisheng didn't know where to go, so he had to give up the position of the striker to Xiao Mo with his men, just guarding Cai Maode's side to prevent changes.

Xiao Mo secretly knocked Cai Maode unconscious, threw it to Liu Laosi, and ordered the whole army to rush in the direction of Pingdingzhou. (To be continued......)
