"Report to the prince and the prince!" The Anzhou messenger knelt on one knee in front of King An's father and son, and said stubbornly, "The right guards who attacked the dock will escape through the hole in the underwater iron railing...... The city is up."

"Rubbish, it's all rubbish!" Under the reflection of the raging fire in the dock of Anzhou City, King An's face was distorted with his cheeks sunken and his eyes were red, "More than 2,000 people can't hold the dock, what's the use of this king Liuer!"

He Jiongming, the prince of King An, who was in charge of the dockyard, pursed his thin lips, and his eyes were dyed with fire.

He Jiongzhao, the second son of King An, who was standing closely behind King An, added fuel to the fire and said, "Father is angry, my eldest brother didn't expect that Youhou Wei would dare to sneak attack the dock, and he would only ...... for a moment of negligence."

He Jiongming's fire-breathing eyes fell on his younger brother He Jiongzhao, and his voice was as cold as a poisonous snake, "Shut up."

In public, he actually slapped himself in the face in public. He Jiongzhao gritted his teeth with hatred, but he pretended to be sincere and fearful, "Big brother is also angry."

He Jiongming didn't bother to look at him anymore, so he arched his hand and said to King An, "Father will go back to the house to rest first, and the child will definitely find out this matter before dawn tomorrow morning."

King An threw up his sleeves and left, He Jiongzhao followed closely behind his father, and continued to give He Jiongming eye medicine, "Father, eldest brother, he ......."

"Shut up."

King An faintly said two words, which made He Jiongzhao's face crackle. He Jiongzhao was stunned in place, unable to return to his senses for a long time.

After King An left in the car, the strategist stepped forward and whispered, "Second son, please get in the car."

He Jiongzhao gritted his teeth, "Father's heart is all biased towards He Jiongming."

The strategist was shocked by the second son's words, and he was covered in white sweat, "This is not the place to talk, please get in the car with the second son."

After He Jiongzhao got into the car, the strategist reminded him in his ear, "The dockyard has been destroyed, and it is impossible to go south down the river. If Anzhou is lost, the prince can only break through the enemy army outside the west city and rush to Jingzhou. If the prince wants to settle down in Jingzhou smoothly, he must have the help of General Cao Shishan, who guards Xiazhou."

Cao Shishan, the general of Xiazhou, is He Jiongming's father-in-law, so at this time, for the sake of the overall situation, King An will not turn his face with his eldest son.

He Jiongzhao visibly calmed down, and said desperately, "You must not go to Jingzhou, otherwise this son will be a dead end." We must find a way to take Xuanzhou as soon as possible...... Send more manpower, and at all costs, Du Chenghou, Zhu Mengzhen and Lin Kangnian will be slaughtered."

"Hikoyoshi!" Shen Cunyu patted his younger brother on the shoulder and praised, "Well done! Go back and change your clothes, don't catch a cold."

Under the firelight, Shen Ge's teeth became whiter and whiter, "Yes. The Anzhou rebels may jump over the wall and sneak out through the waterways, so be careful."

"Don't worry, come out and slaughter one by one." Shen Cunyu asked Shen Ge to lead the team down to rest.

"The little boy has made another great achievement, and the Hou Ye must be very happy to know it." Xu Chuan, who was standing beside Shen Cunyu, looked at Shen Ge's tall back and showed an old fatherly smile.

Shen Cunyu's focus is not this, "Yanyi is as thin as a monkey, so he has to make up for it. Tell the kitchen that in addition to breakfast, Yanyi must have meat to eat."

Xu Chuan responded, "The little general and the little boy have to make up for it, and tomorrow morning the subordinates will order the kitchen to slaughter a pig."

Shen Cunyu nodded, "The dock has been burned, and the rebels are in even greater decline, so they are likely to be desperate. Send a letter to General Du and Zhu Taishou immediately, and let them guard Xuanzhou City, and the victory or defeat will be known within two months."

***

When the news of the right Hou Wei was delivered to Xuanzhou City, thick smoke was billowing outside the city. The smoke was caused by the rebels setting fire to the forest. How much rain last year was in Xuanzhou, how dry this year is. Trees and grasses that were almost dry burned and burned harder, and they burned bigger and bigger.

Lin Ruyu stood in the courtyard of her house, looking at the smoke that was about to cover the western sky, her brows furrowed. In another month, the late rice harvest will be completed, and the rebels are making trouble at this juncture, which is really damned. Wen, who was holding his little daughter, was so angry that he scolded his mother, and the faces of Fang and Mrs. Fang were also ugly.

The Lin family has a grange of more than 200 acres of fertile land outside the west city, and the place where the smoke rises is not far from the Lin family grange. If it burns again, the Lin Family Grange will definitely be engulfed in flames. Father Lin is still in the grange at this time.

Lu Yuchun and Lin Ruyu discussed in a whisper, "Let's

Send someone to bring your stepfather back? If the grange is gone, it will be gone, as long as the people are okay. There are still 30 people in the dart game, and they can all be sent out."

Father Lin went out of the city to inspect today and took away more than 20 nursing homes of the Lin family. The Lin family does not have many nursing homes left, and it is impossible to transfer more manpower.

Lin Ruyu nodded, "Sister-in-law takes care of the family, and I will go to the yamen to discuss the matter of extinguishing the fire with Lord Taishou."

"Jiaojiao has a way to extinguish fire?" Fang Shi heard his daughter's words and asked in a low voice.

Lin Ruyu nodded, "I just have an idea, and I have to ask Lord Taishou to decide."

After leaving Qingyi Lane, Lin Ruyu noticed that the smell of incense outside was very strong, and lifted the curtain to look out, only to find that a dense group of people were kneeling under an old locust tree on the side of the road to burn incense and beg for rain.

When human beings can't reach it, praying to God is the last hope of the people.

Lin Ruyu took a deep breath of incense, put down the car curtain, closed her eyes, and kept rotating the map of Xuanzhou in her heart, looking for a suitable fire extinguishing belt.

In the state yamen, Zhu Taishou and Changshi and others were anxious because of the fire outside the city, and on the other hand, they were surprised by the letter sent by the right Hou Wei.

After Lin Ruyu came in, Zhu Taishou directly handed her the letter, "The right Hou Wei burned all the warships in the Anzhou dock, and King An has no warships, so there is no way to go south down the river, and most of the danger in Xuanzhou has been solved."

Changshi Ye Changjun didn't feel that Lord Taishou's approach was inappropriate at all, because Lin Ruyu was resourceful, could cure poison, and was still Shen Ge's fiancée. And Shen Ge is the eldest grandson of Wu Anhou. In other words, the little girl in front of her who is too beautiful to talk to is the future Mrs. Wu'anhou.

The premise is that after Shen Ge recognizes his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, he also recognizes this family business.

Lin Ruyu heard the good news and immediately understood why the rebels burned Xuanzhou, "It must be that this news was also known to the rebels, so the rebels in Raozhou and Jiangzhou were in a hurry."

Chuzhou and Ezhou were regained the control of the imperial court, and the rebel armies were scattered, and Jiangzhou and Raozhou became isolated islands besieged by the imperial army, so they were eager to capture Xuanzhou. Because after taking Xuanzhou, Jiangzhou, Raozhou, Hezhou and Xuanzhou are connected into a piece, and they can be attacked, retreated, and defended.

The rebels in Raozhou and Jiangzhou thought that Hezhou was under the control of King An.

"Not bad." Zhu Taishou stroked his white beard, "Miss Lin is here at this time, is it?"

Lin Ruyu asked, "The wildfire outside the city is getting closer and closer, how do you plan to put out the fire?"

Zhu Taishou wanted to say that the fire was too fierce, and he could only hope that the wind would turn and the fire would turn, or that the next rainstorm would extinguish the fire. But I felt that Lin Ruyu came to see him at this time, and there must be a way to extinguish the fire. Although he thought it was incredible, Zhu Taishou still asked, "Ruyu has a way to extinguish fire?"

"Yes." Lin Ruyu said calmly, "Fight fire with fire."
