Chapter 553: Worry
Not to mention that after Yongzhou was besieged for more than a month, the soldiers and civilians of a city went through all the catastrophes, struggled to survive, and finally forced Jiaozhi to retreat.
Chen Hao took the rebel army to Guangyuan Prefecture, and sent Zhang Dingya and Gu Yanzhang to successfully persuade the chaotic people led by Liang Jiong, the general of the Guangxin army, to surrender, and the news was transmitted back to the capital.
However, before he could sleep well for a few days, he got another urgent report from the urgent foot substitute, and he dared to raise troops to commit crimes.
Li Fuzai claimed to raise an army of 300,000, and there were all the seventy-two lords of Guangyuan Prefecture attached, and entered the territory of Guangnan, and he could really get a sentence of invincibility, and he could conquer everything.
Guangnan West Road all the way up and down, at most 20,000 or 30,000 troops, and scattered in various states, counties, and villages, how can they resist the thieves?
If Zhao Rui was still a little happy in his heart, thinking that Chen Hao would not have time to return to Beijing, not to mention the side, Chen Hao's name alone can be used as 10,000 elite soldiers, and it is not impossible to have the Jiedu envoy who once followed Yang Kui to conquer Guangnan, and led nearly 10,000 rebels to stabilize the army's morale and wait for the arrival of Korean and Chinese reinforcements.
However, with one report after another, one after another rushed to send it, Jiaozhi committed a border, Chen Hao was seriously ill, Wu Yi, the governor of Yongzhou, provoked incidents with Guangyuan Prefecture and Jiaozhi, Qinzhou, Lianzhou and other more than ten prefectures and counties fell successively, Guangnan West Road was slaughtered tens of thousands, countless prisoners, the treasury, Changping were all taken away and other news came, Zhao Rui's mouth and jaw also grew mouth blisters one after another, and even several big red blisters floated on the nose and chin, only lightly touched, It's a tingling pain.
On the one hand, he scolded Chen Hao in his heart that he was ill at an inopportune time, and he had to hurriedly send the imperial doctor to Guangnan with medicinal materials, and on the other hand, he hurriedly summoned the important ministers of the two prefectures, and a few other officers who were familiar with the situation in Guangnan entered the Chongzheng Palace to discuss matters.
The dynasty has always paid little attention to Guangnan, one is because of the distance here, and there is more miasma, and the other is not only less tax, but also a lot of silver money to raise every year, if it is not for Yang Kui being forced to crusade on the same day, I am afraid that at this time even the twenty or thirty thousand Xiang army can not get together, a palace of important ministers quarreled back and forth, quarreled for many days, and did not quarrel with a result.
The courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty wanted to choose a suitable candidate to lead the troops, but it was so difficult.
When it was easy to settle on the generals who rushed to help, it became a problem where to transfer troops.
Many miscellaneous and important things dragged on, and after nearly a month, the general finally went south, preparing to transfer troops from Jinghu to Yongzhou for rescue.
Although the person who led the troops was also a veteran, he was not familiar with Guangnan, although he was suffering from no one who could use it, he had to decide on this candidate, but Zhao Rui was still worried.
It took nearly a month to set off at this time, and it was from Jinghu to Yongzhou, and when the reinforcements arrived, it really took two months!
Zhao Rui's heart was as anxious as being roasted by fire - the more than 10,000 troops in Yongzhou could really hold it for two months?
***
Not long after the anxious substitute on Guangnan West Road entered the palace, an old friend of Liu Boshan secretly sent him a letter.
Liu Boshan Yijie Wenchen, has been to Shi for many years, this time back to Beijing, just hanging in the Zishan Hall to the little prince Zhao Department to give a lecture on the scriptures, encountered such a military event, not that he can control, so he had to find friends and disciples in the back to help operate, try to give a hand to the generals who rushed south to help, except for these, it is useless at all.
In the past few decades, he has only accepted one mantle disciple of Gu Yanzhang, and the other party has gone south with Chen Hao to assist in the transfer, and now he is still staying in Yongzhou, Jiaozhi is known as an army of 300,000, no matter how much water there is, the strength is at least several times that of Yongzhou, and it is really a bit of a pipe dream to defend the state city with more than 10,000 people.
Liu Boshan and Gu Yanzhang have been apprentices for nearly ten years, saying that they are masters and apprentices, but in fact, the relationship between the two is not much different from that of father and son.
Liu Lin's family was shocked and frightened, she had a lot of experience, and she knew that Gu Yanzhang was really fierce this time, but the Gu family did not have half an elder, only a young Ji Qingling, although she was smart and clever on weekdays, but in the end it was a little daughter's family, how could she bear such bad news?
She was sad and sighed, and she had to suppress her heart, so she turned her head and found someone to invite Ji Qingling to come over.
At this time, it was the middle of winter, and it had only snowed heavily in the capital for several days, but fortunately it had stopped, and the Liu Lin clan saw people, and they didn't say anything, but only moved a seat for Ji Qingling by their side, told her to sit down, and stopped talking with tea, looking very hesitant.
When Ji Qingling saw the other party's expression, he knew that it was not good, and only asked in a low voice: "Shi Niang, do you have anything to explain to me?" I'm afraid that there is something difficult in one place? ”
Liu Lin's words circled around his mouth a few times, and then he said: "I have been looking for this matter, but there is no suitable way, so I have to come to you." ”
Ji Qingling hurriedly sat upright and did not interject.
Liu Lin already knew what was going on, so he thought about it and said it, "Your sister Liu has always been cold, and the pregnancy is very inconsistent, do you know it?" ”
Ji Qingling didn't know Liu Lin's intentions, so he comforted: "Don't worry, Senior Sister, although Sister Liu said that it was a little inappropriate the first time, but Third Brother Du is upright, and there is nothing to worry about at home now, as long as you take care of yourself, it won't take a year and a half to raise your body, and it will not be difficult to have children and daughters at that time." ”
She didn't know anything at this time, and she said a lot of things, only caring about comforting her mother, but she didn't know that her appearance was in the eyes of Liu Lin's family, and she almost stirred up the other party's tears.
Liu Lin had to say again: "Your sister Liu has taken medicine for a long time, but only can not cure the root cause, because it is about to live in the Yuan, these days there are a lot of Luoyang celebrities in the capital, I took the post at home, personally invited an old doctor to come back, give you Sister Liu a closer look, said that it has been cold for many years, whether it is for pregnancy or not, you have to use heat to force the cold out, otherwise you will have to suffer when you are old." ”
Ji Qingling was very surprised, and hurriedly asked: "It's so good, how can it be cold for many years?" So how can we force the cold out now? ”
