At this time, Hao Xiaozhong led several lieutenant generals to walk in, his face was full of red light, he was very excited, he didn't seem to feel the tense atmosphere in the cabin, and he didn't know the news that Zuo Liangyu was critically ill, so he walked in with a big thorn, and said as he walked: "Little Hou Ye, the matter is done, Jiujiang City has been burned by the last general, and by the way, I will bring you back one person." ”

While speaking, there were two pawns pushing and shoving one person, it was Yuan Jixian, who was tied up by Wuhuada, who was still shouting angrily and scolding: "Let go of this official quickly, otherwise, this official will let Zuo Liangyu put you to death!" I really ate the heart of a bear and a leopard, and I dared to kidnap the official of the imperial court, there is no king's law, and this official has to be dealt with by law! ”

Hao Xiaozhong and Yuan Jixian's voices became lower and lower, and they became suspicious, and finally realized that the atmosphere in the cabin was wrong, and a school officer came to Hao Xiaozhong's side and whispered in his ear, the latter's face changed greatly, and he immediately became honest and stood aside.

At this time, Yuan Jixian had a bad feeling in his heart, constantly looking around, and when he saw Zuo Mengeng, he just wanted to ask something?

But I saw that Zuo Mengeng suddenly let go of the military doctor's collar, pushed it away, his face sank like water, turned to look at Yuan Jixian, and said coldly: "Come on, lock up this old man for me, no one is allowed to let him go without my order, and those who violate the military law will be dealt with, and they will not be spared!" ”

Yuan Jixian was stunned for a while, surprised by Zuo Mengeng's reaction, with his friendship with Zuo Liangyu, he was his uncle, he couldn't believe it, Zuo Mengeng dared to treat himself like this?

At this moment, no one pleaded for Yuan Jixian, let alone spoke, the cabin was quiet, Yuan Jixian had been pressed down until he left the cabin, still not sober, and couldn't believe what happened to him.

Everyone knows that the reason why Zuo Mengeng is so angry is not only because Yuan Jixian is uninteresting and uncooperative, but also because he sprinkles all his anger on him, and firmly believes that the reason for his father's death is all Yuan Jixian!

Otherwise, how could my father be so angry that he vomited blood and died?

A maid walked over and stopped in front of Zuo Mengeng, her little face was pale, her frightened body was trembling, she lowered her head, and whispered: "Little Hou Ye, the old Hou Ye has returned to heaven." ”

Although the voice was very soft, everyone could hear it clearly, and they couldn't help but feel a tightening heart, and a thunderclap sounded in their ears.

At this moment, everyone's hearts were raised, and they reacted almost instinctively, thinking of a major event related to their own net worth, the boss is dead, what should the king of Dongjin Qin do?

Zuo Mengeng walked a few steps quickly, came to the side of the bed, hugged Zuo Liangyu's body, gradually lost his temperature, his face was pale and pale, no different from a dead man, he couldn't help but shake and shout again and again: "Father, father, wake up, wake up, there is still a great cause waiting for you, everyone can't do without you!" ”

"Little Marquis, please mourn, the old Marquis has passed away......"

The generals comforted Zuo Mengeng one after another, persuading them to say the same or similar words.

Soon after, Zuo Mengeng accepted this reality, looking at his father with tears, his family and clansmen were all killed by the rebels, and the father and son depended on each other, at this moment Zuo Mengeng was in pain, and shouted faintly: "Inform all the soldiers, Hou Ye has returned to heaven, and organize a funeral ......for Hou Ye"

Before the word "matter" could be spit out, it was interrupted by Huang Shu who came up.

"No! Little Hou Ye, now is not the time to make a big deal about Hou Ye's funeral. Otherwise, all these efforts will be in vain. ”

"Why not? How did it go in vain? Zuo Mengeng turned his head and stared straight at Huang Shu, his voice was a little cold, although the voice was plain, but it seemed extremely strong.

Looking at Zuo Mengeng's fierce gaze, Huang Shu had a feeling like falling into an ice cave, although he jumped up with apprehension, he still had to bite the bullet and say: "Little Hou Ye, there are chaotic troops in the north, and those Huguang garrisons who have been coerced, once they hear the news of Hou Ye's death, the former will definitely come straight and attack us, and the latter will be difficult to control." ”

In an instant, as if he had been hit head-on, Zuo Mengeng gradually regained his senses, and the nameless fire in his chest that was rushing up became smaller, and he was forcibly pressed down, and he secretly exhaled a long breath, and said in a deep voice: "Pass the order, about the funeral of the Hou Ye, keep it secret, and wait until King Qinwang will do it." ”

At this moment, everyone's hearts also breathed a sigh of relief, and the hanging heart finally let go, I was really afraid that Zuo Mengeng's donkey temper would come up, and he stubbornly insisted on doing a big funeral.

At this time, everyone has no way back, especially in Jiujiang City, there is no room for maneuver, and now there are only two roads, either to enter the city of Nanjing, or to surrender to the Dashun army.

The next day, Anqing Province.

Where Tian Jianxiu's army was stationed, in the handsome tent, Tian Jianxiu was standing in front of a map, facing the generals, the whole person seemed very happy, although he fought for days and days, and was seriously deprived of sleep, but he was still radiant and radiant.

"Brothers, we have captured more than half of Anqing Mansion, no matter how hard we work, we can endure it again, at most half a month, we will be able to occupy the entire territory ......of Anqing Mansion, and when the time comes, we can return to the emperor."

Without waiting for Tian Jianxiu to finish speaking, a soldier broke in and said quickly: "Report to the marshal, according to the report from Tanmalai, Zuo Liangyu led the sailor to detour through Jiangxi and come along the river. Moreover, just last night, he kidnapped the governor Yuan Jixian and set fire to Jiujiang City. ”

For a while, the generals turned their heads one after another, and all their eyes were focused on the soldiers, Tian Jianxiu frowned slightly, and asked instead: "Is it the reinforcements from Anqing Mansion?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Tian Jianxiu suddenly shook his head again and again, denied himself, his face was full of incomprehension, and he said to himself: "No, no, Liu Zongmin They are in Huguang and have already occupied many areas, so at this time, it is impossible for Zuo Liangyu to go east, unless he doesn't want the old nest of Huguang." ”

Hearing Tian Jianxiu say this, the soldier hurriedly answered: "Report to the marshal, just this morning, Zuo Liangyu posted a message everywhere, the reason why they went east was to go to Nanjing City, enter the king of Beijing Qin, the side of the Qing monarch, and kill Ma Shiying, these traitors!" ”

"Haha..."

Tian Jianxiu and everyone laughed heartily for a while, and the former couldn't help but say: "Hehe... From this point of view, Zuo Liangyu's intelligence is really bad, so long has passed, they haven't gotten a little news, we have conquered Nanjing City and captured Zhu Yousong. ”

Immediately afterwards, others echoed and responded to Tian Jianxiu's judgment.

"This is normal, marshal, before each action, we will control all the main roads and block the news as much as possible, plus Zuo Liangyu was restrained by Marshal Liu and Marshal Gao, so he couldn't be distracted for a while, and the news was naturally more closed."

"Hey, hey... In fact, the reason why the blockade of the news is so smooth is related to the topography of this area, and the Yangtze River lies in the middle, which makes the action of blocking the news more convenient and simple. ”

"Yes, even at the usual speed of message transmission, it is difficult for the news of Nanjing City to reach the Huguang area in less than ten days and half a month. What's more, there is a blockade from our Dashun army? ”
