Chapter 473: Target Muzhou, plan to enter the army
On the Wu River, the warships drove to the shore very docilely, and the chaotic battle situation was completely separated.
The river is wide.
On the three warships of the Muzhou Naval Division, all the soldiers and generals were squatting on the deck.
Behind them, the razor-sharp blades of the lance kept an eye on their vests, as if they would stab down at any moment.
With a click, a wooden plank had been set up on Li Xuan's official boat.
Immediately after, a silver-armored young general pushed forward hard, and the gray-haired Zhu Zhu was pushed onto the deck.
The whole person stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Before Zhu Jun could stand firmly, the voice of Li Xuan came.
"Captain Zhu, this king thinks that he has done his best to you, but you have despised this king several times, and now under the general trend, your power has been turned into powder in just a few days, what else do you have to say now?"
Zhu Jun raised his head and saw Li Xuan and Yao Zhi standing in front of him, and two pairs of indifferent eyes fell on him at the same time.
The corner of Zhu Jun's mouth smiled coldly, and he glanced at Li Xuan and Yao Zhi defiantly, and then asked with a gloomy face, "What about Wen Fuzhi, where is he now, alive or dead?"
Yao Zhi also looked at Li Xuan at the same time.
"He has already died at the bottom of the river, Captain Zhu might as well care more about himself when he has time." Li Xuan's gaze crossed Zhu Zhu and looked at the people on the other warships.
When the Hangzhou Navy warships came out, except for Zhu Zhu's warships, which resisted slightly, the other ships quickly raised white flags and surrendered.
There weren't many deaths in this battle.
"Sima." Li Xuan looked sideways at Yao Zhi and said in a low voice: "These people, I'm afraid most of them will have to be exonerated in the future, since they are now in Wuzhou, you might as well use them to help the people repair the houses and farmland destroyed by the hurricane, so as not to waste food in vain."
"Yes!" Yao Zhi paused slightly and continued: "But the prince has to hurry up, once Muzhou is taken, these people must be released back to Muzhou, and this is not a few days."
"This nature." Li Xuan turned to look at Zhu Jun again, and said after consideration: "It is not difficult for Muzhou to take it, but the difficult thing is the Tianyin Sect General Altar, the location of the Tianyin Sect General Altar has always been secretive, and it is extremely good at migration, if you find him accurately, it will depend on how Sima works hard from this one."
"In this case, thank you very much." Yao Zhi bowed his hand to Li Xuan, and Li Xuan's words showed his letting go of Zhu Zhu.
"Thank you, too, Sima." Li Xuan returned the salute, then raised his head and looked at Liang Ling, who was dressed in silver armor.
Yao Zhi on the side followed and looked over, then sighed and said, "The prince has a heart, after the official returns, everything must be truthful."
"Then thank you, Sima." Li Xuan bowed his hand to Yao Zhi again, and Yao Zhi returned the salute: "Then the lower official will go and get busy first."
"Sima, please!" Li Xuan stretched out his hand.
Yao Zhi waved his hand back, and the two Yuezhou soldiers immediately stepped forward, grabbed Zhu Zhu, and walked to the back cabin.
Zhu Jun looked at Li Xuan with a surprised face, and opened his mouth to ask something, but he didn't know how to ask.
The conversation between Li Xuan and Yao Zhi just now, he was clear in his ears.
He didn't understand that the king of Nanchang didn't care about the secrets he knew at all, and directly handed him over to Yao Zhi.
Is he that useless?
"Du joins the army, Xu County Order." Li Xuan looked behind him, and Du Bixing and Xu Wen immediately stood up: "Xia Guan is here."
Li Xuan's face was solemn: "Order the two of you, from now on, search for all the remaining bandits of Tianyin who have escaped in the entire territory of Lanxi."
"The Commander obeys!" Du Bixing and Xu Wen agreed at the same time.
Although they defeated the visiting Muzhou naval army in the past few days, after several battles, many people still fled to the countryside, bringing a lot of trouble.
"The matter of arranging these people to serve in labor will be handed over to the Xu County Order, and they shall not be treated harshly in the days of living, eating, drinking."
"The Lower Officials obey the order." Xu Wen immediately surrendered his hand, and then retreated.
"Let's all get busy." Li Xuan waved his hand, and everyone immediately retreated.
Standing behind Li Xuan, only Yu Ze, Wang Bo, and Liang Fuling remained.
Liang Fuling, dressed in silver armor, clasped her fists at Yu Ze and Wang Bo and saluted, and the two immediately returned the salute.
Liang Fuling straightened up at this time, and looked at Li Xuan with some puzzlement: "Aren't these people rebels and rebels, it's not too much to cut off their heads, why, listening to what you said, it seems that their crimes are not heavy?"
"Your Majesty will forgive them for their sins." Li Xuan beckoned to Liang Ling.
Only then did Liang Fuling step forward and stand shoulder to shoulder with Li Xuan.
Li Xuan pointed to the river plain in front of him and said: "This mountain, river and field, always need someone to cultivate, under the military disaster in Muzhou this time, the number of people has decreased, and the fields are barren, in order to ensure this year's autumn harvest, the imperial court will not only exempt those people from the crime of rebellion, but will even give more mercy."
This time, the Tianyin Sect in Muzhou raised troops, and the clans in Muzhou were afraid that they had already been wiped out, and a large piece of land was vacated.
Coupled with the successive battles, there were many casualties in Wuzhou Dinghu, and afterwards, it was impossible to say that people had to be moved in from outside the state.
Therefore, some people who are only rebellious will naturally be relieved of their culpability.
Under the emperor's grace, the imperial court will reverse the impression of the harsh treatment of the people of Muzhou for more than 20 years, and then win the hearts of the people in one fell swoop.
After this time, it will be difficult for the Tianyin Sect to make a comeback.
Of course, there are some things that are inconvenient to talk about.
"In the end, the court is still for itself." Liang Lingling said thoughtfully.
Li Xuan, Yu Ze, and Wang Bo glanced at each other, and then smiled bitterly.
Li Xuan waved his hand, looked at Yu Ze, and said, "Uncle Yu, you and Mr. Zi'an will take people to rectify the battlefield, and after half an hour, we will set off for Meiling Pass."
"Whoa!" Yu Ze and Wang Bo retreated.
Standing at the bow of the ship, Li Xuan looked at Liang Fuling and said in a low voice, "This time, I originally wanted you to make a big contribution, but I didn't expect to just pick up a small bargain in the end."
If it was really at the moment when Li Xuan and the Muzhou Sailor were fighting fiercely, and Liang Fuling came out from behind the Muzhou Sailor, then she would have made a great contribution.
It's a pity that Yuan Chao returned to honesty later, and Wen Fuzhi rushed to Wuzhou, so that Li Xuan's plan had to change greatly, and Liang Fuling only intercepted it in the end.
"If that's the case, maybe the girl will have to chew on the root of her tongue." Liang Fuling stood beside Li Xuan and said in a low voice, "It's good to be like this now, it's not too conspicuous to make a little effort."
Li Xuan nodded slightly, female generals are rare in this dynasty, and there is a precedent for Princess Pingyang, and the court does not respect female generals.
"By the way, I'll take a good look at all the things on your ship, and remember to thank me when you go back." Liang Fuling suddenly changed her tone, and looked at Li Xuan with a smile, her pretty face was full of triumph.
Li Xuan went from Luoyang to Muzhou, experienced a lot of things along the way, and also caught a lot of work.
There are also some people and things he brought from Luoyang, these things can be said to be his weakness.
So from the very beginning, these people, Li Xuan did not let them enter Wuzhou City, but came to Lanxi first.
Hidden without anyone noticing.
These people and things, even if Wuzhou has been pacified now, it may not be completely useless, after all, there is still a Tianyin General Altar.
Li Xuan nodded slightly: "Don't worry, this king remembers."
"And what about my father, is there any news?" Liang Fuling said a word, and her own face was already gloomy.
"Yes, what about your father?" Li Xuan's face suddenly became solemn, he shook his head slightly, and said, "This king doesn't lie to you, since Yangzhou, this king has not received any news from your father. Even after the Tianyin Sect raised troops this time, they didn't receive any news from him. Not to mention you, even this king is surprised."
Li Xuan turned his head to look in the northeast direction, and his face became more and more solemn.
Liang Fuling is talking about her father Liang Yongchang and Liang Ming, while Li Xuan is talking about Yan Zhuang.
Yan Zhuang once secretly appeared in Yangzhou as Liang Ming, so it was still easy to fool Liang Poria.
Liang Poria herself is proficient in the art of war, so she was used by Li Xuan as the last hole card, but unfortunately, this hole card did not play a big role.
He originally wanted Liang Fuling to make some contributions, after all, the real Yongchang Bo Liang Ming had passed away.
Yongchangbo's treatment will be withdrawn by the imperial court later.
She is an orphan girl, even if she has her uncle Shi Jin, but in the end she can only rely on herself.
Fortunately, in today's scene, Sima Yao Zhi of the Yuezhou Governor's Mansion saw it all in his eyes, and after he went back, he would naturally have a wonderful pen.
But now, what Li Xuan really cares about is Yan Zhuang.
Since leaving Yangzhou, there has been no news from Yan Zhuang, and I don't know if he is still the head altar of the Tianyin Sect, or whether he has killed Shezhou with Empress Yuan, or whether he has been recognized.
"Don't you hear from him either?" Liang Fuling's expression was a little lower.
"In fact, in the eyes of this king, there is no news, and perhaps it is good news."
Li Xuan suddenly smiled and said, "If that's the case, it's not a good thing."
Liang Ling's eyes lit up, and then nodded.
Li Xuan's brows furrowed, and a question couldn't help but rise in his heart.
Yongchang Bo Liang Ming, is he really dead?
In front of Sanhe Pass, under the shade of the trees, Qiu Zhenmu, Xu Jian, Zhou Shen, Shen Lin, and a group of people, wearing armor, waited solemnly.
On the Wu River, a fleet came from the south, led by the Hangzhou Navy warship.
Li Xuan, Yao Zhi, Yu Ze, Wang Bo, Wang Qin, Li Yuanyi, Feng Hua and others all stood at the bow of the ship.
Ji Lang, the captain of the Hangzhou Navy Division, stood on one side with a solemn expression.
He was followed by three official ships, two warships that had been temporarily converted from merchant ships, and then the Muzhou Naval Division's warship, which had been captured not long ago.
The boat line docked, and Li Xuan and Yao Zhi took the lead in disembarking.
Qiu Zhenmu took a step forward and arched his hand: "I have seen the prince, Yao Sima, the last general recaptured the Sanhe Pass half an hour ago, at that time, there were only some soldiers left in the Sanhe Pass who could not move, and the rest of the ships had already retreated north first."
The soldiers who couldn't move around were the ones who had eaten croton flour before.
Although two days have passed, the effect of croton powder has weakened, but in the past two days, they have not eaten much, and they are not good at walking.
Even in the end, when the Tianyin Sect participated in the retreat of the warships, they did not take them with them.
"Looks like there are smart people." Li Xuan waved his hand absently, looked at Shen Lin on the side, and said, "Captain Shen, from now on, send a fast ship to investigate the situation, if there is an encounter, don't pay attention to it, just go straight to the city of Muzhou."
"The last will obey." Shen Lin immediately went to make arrangements.
"It seems that the prince is going to plan the next step of the army." Yao Zhi saw Li Xuan's plan at a glance.
