Since the rebels have not yet arrived in the city, the imperial town has not been sealed now, even if the county guard and the county lieutenant want to seal the city, they can't seal it.

Shangjing fell, the rebels arrived immediately, for those who secretly supported Tang Yu, they could stay in the royal town with peace of mind and wait for the arrival of the Wang army, but for those who have been supporting Tang Ling all along, the day the rebels came was tantamount to the end of the world.

Many of the people in the city of Yuzhen fled out of the city with their families.

There are two big cities with a population of more than one million in the country of wind, one is Shangjing, the other is the imperial town, these days, the west gate of the imperial town is full of traffic, and the people in and out are endless, of course, the people who go out of the city account for the vast majority,

For the people who have taken refuge in the city, the safest place in the entire Windy Country is undoubtedly Zhenjun.

However, the junction of Shangjing and Zhenjun has been blocked by the rebels, and it is no longer possible for them to go directly to Zhenjun, so they can only go west first, enter Huanjun, and then go south from Huanjun to Zhenjun.

The all-round development and take-off of Zhenjun are closely related to two major events.

The first major event was that Shangguan Xiu was assigned to Zhenjun, and Yu Zhenjun formed a sweeping and invincible Zhenjun Army in Zhenjun, and the senior management of the Zhenjun Army was keenly aware of the importance of firearms, making Zhenjun a leader in the firearms era.

The second major event is the westward relocation of the imperial town this time.

The town is the economic center of the country of the wind, the main wealth of the people of the country of the wind, basically concentrated in the town, this time the people of the town to avoid the rebels, the collective migration to Zhenjun, not only people, but also brought a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, which provides a strong economic boost for the comprehensive development of Zhenjun in the future,

During this period, there was also a war of not great scale,

Tang Yu's rebels and Tang Cheng's rebels are not fools, how could they sit idly by and watch the wealth of the royal town flow to Zhenjun in vain, the rebels have sent an army of 30,000 people to infiltrate Huan County, intercept and kill the people of Yuzhen who tried to enter Zhen County by Huan County,

After the dark flag of Shura Hall got the news, it was immediately transmitted back to Zhenjun,

At this time, Zhenjun, the brigade of the Zhenjun army has not yet rushed back, but the gendarmerie led by Caidang and Ziyin arrived in Zhenjun first, and when Caidang and Ziyin learned of this, they did not delay time, and immediately led the army into Huan County to meet the rebels.

The two of them didn't want to protect the people who fled from Yuzhen to Zhenjun, let alone protect the huge wealth brought by the people, but the two of them considered the safety of Zhenjun itself.

To the east of Zhenjun there are Shangjing and Sichuan County, which are already the territory of the rebels, if Huan County to the north of Zhenjun is captured by the rebels, the rebels will form a siege of Zhenjun, which will be very unfavorable to Zhenjun.

There is a more important point, both should and Ziyin want to make meritorious contributions and make great contributions, but if the two of them lead the army into the Shangjing area or Sichuan County, it is tantamount to seeking their own death, it is rare for the rebels to divide a small group of soldiers and horses, and flow into Huan County, which is equivalent to the rebels cutting off a piece of fat from their bodies and throwing it in front of their brothers, and how can Dang and Ziyin, who have always been known for their mad dog spirit, not bite the reason,

The two of them led a gendarmerie of 20,000 men to rush to Huan County overnight, and ordered the county guard and county lieutenant of Huan County to gather all the county troops to meet the rebels.

The county lieutenant of Huan County led a 50,000 county army and launched a head-to-head confrontation with the rebels, but was defeated by the rebels.

The equipment of the gendarmerie is the best in the two million central army of the wind country, armed to the teeth, and the officers and men in the army are all elite generals, even if they are company captains who only govern a hundred people, they are all young and strong officers from the military martial arts.

The gendarmerie of the two corps had as many as 200 artillery pieces, and almost every battalion was equipped with as many as 10 guns.

Even if it is a head-to-head confrontation, with the equipment and combat power of the 20,000-strong gendarmerie, it is enough to crush the 30,000-strong rebels, not to mention that the rebels are still unsuspecting and burrowing into the ambush of the gendarmerie.

The rebels of 30,000 did not run away, and they were completely annihilated by the gendarmerie that should be commanded by He Ziyin.

Among them, more than 5,000 rebels were killed in the battle, and the remaining rebels, knowing that they could not break through the encirclement, broke down their fighting spirit, disarmed and surrendered, and all were captured by the gendarmerie.

He Ziyin inherited Shangguan Xiu's ruthless side, and he was not polite to the more than 20,000 rebels who were captured, and all of them were killed.

Because this battle was fought too cleanly, it was too neat, and no news spread until a long time later, when the rebels got the news that the three corps they had sent to Huan County had already been killed by the gendarmerie.

In this battle, Caidang and Ziyin were commended by Tang Ling, and the two were not only awarded the title, but also the title of General Huwei, and Ziyin was awarded the title of General of the Tiger Roar.

The title of knight and general is secondary, and it is a great honor to be personally commended and rewarded by the emperor.

Let's talk about Shangguanxiu, when they arrived in Yuzhen, they saw a large number of people going out of the city to take refuge, and the soldiers guarding the city did not check the people who went out of the city, but they carefully searched the people who entered the city one by one.

Fortunately, Shangguan Xiu and others have the hall card of Shura Hall, although Shura Hall is not an organization of the imperial court, but the brand of Shura Hall is displayed, which is more effective than the pass order of the imperial court.

Seeing that they were from the Shura Hall, the soldiers guarding the city gate did not say a word, but immediately let them go, turned sideways to avoid them, and intervened to give salutes.

Looking outside the city, the royal town is in chaos, and when you enter the city and look at it, it is even more panicked.

On weekdays, the bustling and prosperous streets of Yuzhen are now depressed and deserted, and most of the shops on both sides of the street are closed doors and windows, and the pretense in front of the door has also been removed.

Occasionally, you can see pedestrians on the street, all of them walking in a hurry, and their faces are full of worry.

At that time, there were no complete statistics, and it was impossible to accurately calculate how much economic damage the rebel rebellion had caused to the Wind Country, but just looking at the depression of the Imperial Town, it was not difficult to judge how much the Wind Country suffered this time The economic damage was great.

Shangguan Xiu and his entourage went directly to Gu's mansion,

Arrived at the gate of Gu's house, on the wide street, there was not even a pedestrian, the door of the house was closed, it was quiet inside, there was no sound, Shangguanxiu stood in front of the door, raised his eyes and looked, nodded to Zhangqiu beside him, Zhangqiu quickly climbed the steps, and was about to knock on the door, suddenly, from the door pavilion and the courtyard walls on the left and right, more than 100 men dressed as family members stood up at once, people were holding firearms, looking at Shangguanxiu and others outside the gate, and shouted: "What kind of person, come to Gufu, what is the matter?"

Zhang Qiu was startled by the sudden appearance of the crowd, he supported his chest, showed the hall card of Shura Hall, and said in a deep voice of dissatisfaction: "Shura Hall, we want to see Miss Gu,"

"Ah, it turned out to be the brother of Shura Hall......" In the courtyard, there was a faint sound of people talking at the bottom, and after a short time, the door of the house opened, and a middle-aged housekeeper and several young people came out of it.

The middle-aged butler came to Zhangqiu, bowed his hand, and said, "I don't know if it's the brother of Shura Hall who has visited, I have offended a lot just now, and I hope to forgive my sins,"

"Miss Gu can be in the house,"

"In, in, in, Miss is in the house, everyone, please go inside first,"

Zhang Qiu nodded, he didn't dare to walk in first, he quickly retreated down the steps, came to Shangguan Xiu's side, bowed down and waved his hand, and said, "Son, please,"

Shangguan Xiu smiled and said, "Brother Zhang doesn't have to be so polite," as he spoke, he walked towards the Gu Mansion,

The middle-aged housekeeper didn't know Shangguan Xiu, but looking at the respectful attitude of the people around him, as well as his own outstanding temperament, he judged that he must be a big man in Shura Hall, and the middle-aged housekeeper nodded politely and asked, "I don't know ...... this son is."

"Shangguan Xiu," Shangguan Xiu bluntly reported his name, in Gu Qingling's family, he had nothing to hide,

Hearing his words, the middle-aged butler's eyes widened in disbelief, his legs were weak, he poofed, subconsciously knelt on the ground, and stammered, "Little ...... See ......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Qiu, who was about to walk in front of him, pulled him up and said with a smile: "Okay, if you have anything to say, go in and talk about it,"

"Yes, yes, yes, please inside, hurry, please inside," the middle-aged housekeeper was surprised and excited, he never expected that Shangguan Xiu would come to Yuzhen, and he would come to Gu Mansion in person,

These days, the big families in the royal town are scrambling to run out of the city, only their own lady refuses to leave, and has to wait until all the equipment of the textile factory is disassembled, and it is useless to persuade Qian Jin many times.

Now that the prince is here, the young lady doesn't listen to the persuasion of others, can she still not listen to the princess?

The middle-aged housekeeper came back to his senses, hurriedly caught up with Shangguan Xiu, smiled again and again, and said: "Your Highness, the rebels will hit the royal town in a few days, but my young lady has to stay in the mansion and refuse to leave, and I hope that Your Royal Highness can persuade my young lady more, no matter what, I have to let my young lady leave the imperial town quickly,"

In the tragedy of the year, hundreds of people from the Gu Mansion died finely, and only Gu Qingling survived, and the current middle-aged housekeeper was also hired after Gu Qingling took over the family business, he only knew a little about the relationship between Shangguan Xiu and Gu Qingling, and he was not very clear, he only knew that the two had some friendship, but as for the depth of the friendship, he didn't know,

Shangguan Xiu turned his head to look at him and asked casually, "What's your name?"

"The villain Gu An is the housekeeper of the Gu Mansion,"

"Where is Qingling now?"

“...... In the study,"

"Lead the way,"

"Yes, yes, yes," the housekeeper Gu An nodded again and again, he took Shangguan Xiu through the front yard and came to the study in the atrium.

In the study, Gu Qingling was not the only one, there were more than a dozen people standing on both sides, looking at the dress, they should all be the backbone of the Gu Mansion at the level of stewards.

Shangguan Xiu walked in from the outside as if no one was around, making everyone present stunned, Gu Qingling was sitting behind the bookcase at this time, looking at the account book seriously, she heard someone walk in, but she didn't look up, she just asked casually: "What's the matter,"

"It's nothing, I'm just here to take you away," Shangguan Xiu said, walked straight to the bookcase, grabbed the account book in Gu Qingling's hand, and threw it to a middle-aged steward next to him, and then, he grabbed Gu Qingling's arm and dragged her up from the chair,

Gu Qingling was startled, and couldn't help but exclaim, she looked up and saw Shangguan Xiu's eyes that flashed like obsidian,

"Xiu...... Ah Xiu, you ...... Why are you here," Gu Qingling never expected that Shangguan Xiu would suddenly appear in his home, and he couldn't react for a while.
