Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Blade in Hand Goes West

After all, the movement generated by the passage of tens of thousands of troops was not small, and the commander-in-chief of the army led by the Northern Qi army when passing through Qingzhou County asked the Qingzhou County Guard to replenish military supplies, grain and grass.

Due to the relatively large movement, the secret pile secretly sent here by the cottage detected the news that the army was about to attack Changguang and rebel against the thieves.

The local leader in charge did not dare to delay, and hurriedly sent several men to take different roads, and hurried forward to report to Wang Yong and others.

Wang Yong was shocked when he heard this, and in a hurry, he hurriedly ordered all the camps to hurry up and evacuate to the nearby dangerous places in the mountains, and evacuate to the Long Island Islands in a few places near the sea.

However, because many of the new homeless people were reluctant to give up their belongings, and because the elderly and weak "women" and children were relatively slow to move after all, they delayed their trips.

However, the Northern Qi army was a strong army transferred back from the northern border towns, and the marching speed was very fast, and it was estimated that it would take more than a day to arrive.

In the end, in desperation, Wang Yong and Cheng Chong led thousands of men and horses to stop them, hoping to win some time for the emergency evacuation of the people behind.

Cheng Xueying didn't know about the rest of the matter, but Wang Yong and Cheng Chong never came back after they went. And I heard that Zhu Rui was also captured by the local government when he was recruiting people in the plains.

Cheng Xueying was rushed to Long Island with Wang Ze's mother, Gongxi and other family members, and everyone on the island waited for several days without any news.

It's just that a large number of people fled to the island later, saying that the Northern Qi army had entered the land of Muping, basically killing people when they saw them, and robbing cattle and sheep when they saw them.

Obviously, Wang Yong and Cheng Chong, who led the army to stop it, had failed, and there was still no news when Cheng Xueying came to report the news.

Although most of the people in the camps around the cottage have been evacuated, nearly 10,000 people still died in the hands of the Northern Qi army, and the beautiful home has become a hell on earth.

And there is not even a man on the island who is in charge of the overall situation, and it is all maintained by the prestige of the Gongxi clan, Cheng Xueying saw this and took the initiative to ask Ying to report to Wang Ze.

Although Gongxi didn't want Cheng Xueying to take the risk, after all, it was already summer and there were many storms on the sea, so in the end, he couldn't resist Cheng Xueying's insistence and agreed.

When Wang Ze heard this, his eyes were almost split, his eyes were red, and he hissed: "If my father has three long and two short, I will not share the sky with Northern Qi!" ”

Thinking about all kinds of care from Wang Yong since he crossed over, although Wang Yong is a burly man, but the strong fatherly love is something that Wang Ze can clearly feel, the more Wang Ze thinks about it, the more sad he becomes, and the tears can't stop flowing down, no matter how he wipes it, he can't wipe it off.

Jiang Chuan and Zhou Tong next to him also had red eyes when they heard this, and Zhou Tong said anxiously: "Xiao Langjun, let's quickly kill and go back to avenge the villagers!" ”

And Zheng Kui, who is Wang Yong's friend, also asked for a battle on the side, saying: "Xiao Langjun, I, Zheng Kui, have received the great favor of Lang Jun, and this time I must go to the rescue with Xiao Langjun." ”

Wang Ze patted the desk next to him and said loudly: "Giving an order to my army, Qu Liulang immediately mobilized all the speedboats, except for the ships that stayed on Jeju Island, all the others returned with me." ”

Then he looked at the people in the hall and said, "In three hours, I will see here all the officers above the rank of captain!" Before tomorrow, I will see all the battalions assembled at the docks! Violators will be killed! ”

Everyone in the hall could clearly feel the murderous aura in Wang Ze's words, and naturally they didn't dare and would never go against his intentions.

In the afternoon, all the battalion commanders came, Wang Ze looked at them in military uniform, holding a sword, and said: "The Northern Qi army attacked my camps everywhere, and at least 10,000 people were killed and wounded everywhere. ”

When Wang Ze said this, he pulled out his sword excitedly, pointed to the sky and said: "I and other villagers and elders have defended themselves in Tuntian, Changguang County, and have never disturbed the people, and tens of thousands of people are alive, but today they have suffered this tragedy. ”

When the camp officials in the hall heard the news, they also responded one by one 'excitedly': "We are all greatly favored by Langjun, and we are willing to go to the aid with Xiaolangjun, although there is no regret in death!" ”

Early the next morning, all the battalions came to the dock and assembled, except for Qu Liulang, who left hundreds of sailors to stay in the waters of Jeju Island, all the other battalions followed.

This time, even Liu Qing's disciples and many Taoist priests who had just come to the island also followed, in Liu Qing's words, this time the cottage suffered a great disaster and died with Xiao Langjun.

After 'handing over' He Bo, who stayed on Jeju Island, Wang Ze led 2,500 people from Jiang Chuan's department, 500 people from Zhou Tong's department, nearly 1,000 people from the Blue Wolf Battalion, plus 1,000 militia led by Zheng Kui and Qu Liulang's 1,000 naval army to set off.

Nearly 6,000 people were on board more than 60 sea boats, and although only 20 or so sea boats could be loaded, it was always good to bring more for the people who had fled to Long Island.

Standing at the bow of the ship, Wang Ze's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, and he asked Qu Liulang, who was standing beside him: "Sixth brother, where is the fleet of Sun Xing's department that went south now?" ”

Qu Liulang immediately replied: "Back to Xiaolangjun, I heard last month that Sun Xing led the fleet to the Sanwu coast in Nanchen, and I have already sent a clipper to report the news yesterday, and it may take ten days to receive the news!" ”

Wang Ze muttered: "It took ten days to receive the news!" It will take at least fifteen days to return to the flight, and there is no hope for it, it seems that you can only rely on yourself! ”

Seeing Wang Ze like this, Qu Liulang comforted: "Xiao Langjun don't worry, the Great Commander Ji Ren has his own natural appearance, and he will inevitably turn evil into good fortune." ”

Due to the different types of ships in the fleet, Wang Ze led more than 20 new ships to take the lead, and the sea ships carrying the militia behind them pursued as much as possible.

It was already seven days later when Wang Ze came to Chengshan Waihai, and when he stood on the bow of the ship and saw the smoke still rising from the houses near the wharf, Wang Ze was silent for a long time.

After a while, Wang Ze sent a team of scouts ashore, and then waved his hand and ordered: "The fleet is all heading in the direction of Changdao, and the order is sent to the fleet behind to let them go to Changdao to make peace with us." ”

When approaching Long Island, the people on the island were already frightened, and when they heard that a large number of boats were coming towards the island, they panicked one by one.

Until a sharp-eyed person saw the flag on the ship clearly, he shouted: "That's Xiao Langjun's flag, it's Xiao Langjun back!" ”

Now there are thousands of people on the island who are the old part of the cottage, and they have long had a 'superstitious' belief in Wang Ze, thinking that as long as Xiao Langjun comes back, there will definitely be a way.

As soon as this group of people calmed down, the other thousands of homeless people who came behind also slowly calmed down, after all, after coming to the cottage, their ears had already heard Wang Ze's deeds callousely.

When the fleet docked and Wang Ze got off the boat, Gongxi, who had already heard the news on the shore, was already waiting with Wang Ze's two younger brothers.

As soon as he saw Wang Ze, Gongxi hugged Wang Ze and cried again, Wang Hui, who was holding the corner of his mother's clothes in the back, also cried when he saw his mother crying, and Wang Yu, who was still eating 'milk', also joined the crying team when he heard the two of them crying.

Wang Ze comforted his mother while scanning the surroundings, the blacksmiths of the iron workshop led by Cao Blacksmith's father and son, the students in the various schools in the cottage, and the family members of all the high-level officials in the cottage were all there, not to mention the craftsmen in the shipyard, there were a lot of these boatsmiths here.

Seeing that these people were there, Wang Ze was a little comforted, and Cheng Xueying had already thrown herself into the arms of her mother Aunt Cheng.

Aunt Zhu, Zhu Qingqing and Cheng Hu stood not far away and watched Wang Ze's family, so Wang Ze nodded at them and continued to comfort his mother.

After Gongxi cried, he calmed down and began to tell Wang Ze about some of the things that happened at that time, and Wang Ze asked a few questions while listening.

After being introduced by his mother and supplemented by Aunt Cheng and Aunt Zhu, Wang Ze learned about some of the situation on Long Island today.

Lu Wen had fled to the island more than ten days ago, but he was carried back, and although Lu Wen escaped from the capture of the government that day, he was slashed in the back.

Poor Lu Wen, a scribe in his forties, how could he withstand such a knife, although he did not hurt his 'sex' life, but he fell down because of excessive blood loss, if it weren't for a few old people from the cottage who fled back with him, I am afraid that he would have died there halfway without knowing it.

During this time, the island has begun to lack food, although the island is inhabited by three or four thousand people, and there is some arable land, but after all, it cannot meet the needs of so many people.

Before the arrival of the Northern Qi army, the families of the Gongxi clan and a high-ranking cadre, as well as the families of the old tribes who did not go to Jeju Island, were all sent here.

In addition, the people of Muping, Weihai, Chengshan and other places near the sea have also been evacuated here, adding up to more than 10,000 people.

Later, the Northern Qi army broke through several cottages, and some of the people who fled to the mountains fled to the island again, adding two or three thousand people.

The food on the island is a little tight, but fortunately, the cottage has always had the habit of fishing and eating fish, and it has saved some food in the past ten days.

If Wang Ze did not come in a few days, the Gongxi clan was ready to evacuate some of the people to the northern islands in order to further reduce the pressure on food.

Speaking of this, Gongxi's eyes were red and said to Wang Ze: "Da Lang, it would be good if you could find and rescue your father this time, but Da Lang, you must be careful, if you are also like your father, how can you survive as a mother!" ”

Seeing that his mother, Gongxi, looked like he was about to cry again, Wang Ze hurriedly assured his mother: "Mother, don't worry, this time the child will lead thousands of troops to come, and he will definitely be able to rescue his father, Second Uncle Cheng, and Third Uncle Zhu." ”

When the two aunts next to them heard Wang Ze say this, they were also overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked them: "Da Lang, be careful!" ”

At this time, Cheng Hu stood up and said to Wang: "Da Lang, I will go with you to save my father and Daddy!" Aunt Cheng next to her hurriedly grabbed Cheng Hu and didn't allow him to go.

Cheng Huzheng said to his mother: "Mother, this time the cottage was broken, and my father has no news, how can I, as a son of man, not come to the rescue?" Ignoring Aunt Cheng's shouts, he came to Wang Ze.

Wang Zezheng said to Aunt Cheng: "Second aunt, don't worry, the two uncles are like my father to me, and I will definitely rescue them this time!" ”

After comforting Aunt Cheng, Wang Ze looked at Cheng Hu in front of him again, although he is only eleven years old this year, he already has a height of 1.7 meters in the future, and at first glance he is the material for becoming a fierce general in the future.

Patting Cheng Hu on the shoulder, Wang Ze nodded and said to him: "Good second brother, our brothers will go together this time." Now you can take me to visit Mr. Lu. ”
