Ge Sibao returned to Anren's house, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw the Hun family smiling and greeting him, blinking and saying, "There are guests at home!"

"Oh?" Ge Sibao glanced at his woman attentively, and turned around to let the soldiers go to rest. Watching him close the door and walk away, he asked, "Who is it?"

"Guess." The woman threw him a wink and turned into the house, and Ge Sibao followed him inexplicably. This house was left by his parents before their deaths, and relatives in the clan wanted to occupy it, but Zhou Xin intervened and returned it to him.

When he was thirty years old, Zhou Xin sent Ge Sibao to Yugan to run errands, and during the two days of waiting, he fell in love with a woman in Menghualou, so he took out most of his savings to redeem her and brought it back to be a husband and wife.

As soon as he entered the main house, he was stunned. "Why is Mom here?" The "mother" in his mouth is Aunt Zhou of Menghualou, it was he who bought the Hun family from Aunt Zhou, and he still remembers it after a few years of not seeing it.

"Ah Lang, sit down, Aunt Zhou is here to send you a rich and noble scene today!" The Hun family greeted him.

"It's not only rich, but it's still a happy event!" Aunt Zhou covered her mouth and smiled, she is forty years old this year, and she can see that she was also a beautiful woman who charmed a young man when she was young.

"Auntie laughed, in the next small inspection, where did you get any wealth and joy?" Ge Sibao said in his mouth, curious in his heart, put away the Yan Ling knife, sat down opposite her, and arched his hand and said, "But Aunt Lao came from afar, sin, sin."

"Oh, it's okay!" Mrs. Zhou smiled very seriously: "Although the big ship is not accessible now, the land route is very easy to walk! The slave heard that it was cultivated by more than 2,000 captives? It's really flat, and the carriage is very comfortable to walk on!

Speaking of this carriage, I have to praise that Li Sanlang, a good means to build such a soft car carriage, it is very convenient for me and other female dependents to travel! From the pier of Whitehorse to the city, it is only ten dollars to hire a car, which is too cheap!"

"Mommy......!" The woman shouted softly, and gave a strange look to stop Aunt Zhou's hand dancing.

"Well, you see, I forgot about it as soon as I was happy. Okay, okay, get down to business!" Aunt Zhou waved her hand with a smile, and then asked, "Ge Lang is now an official, and his subordinates are also in charge of some people, right?"

Ge Sibao smiled: "It's not much, it's just three or four hundred brothers."

"Ouch, that's not much? That's more powerful than a hundred generals in the official army!"

"How does this compare? I'm only in charge of the militia and the inspectors." Ge Sibao wondered, "Mom asked this, do you have to be a matchmaker for the brothers?"

laughed at the two women with one sentence, and Aunt Zhou hurriedly waved her hand: "I only care about you Ge Lang, but I can't take care of the others!"

"Me?"

"Ge Lang," he tugged at his sleeves, "do you remember Sister Ayu?"

Ge Sibao's face turned red, and he whispered, "Why did you mention her?" It turns out that this Ayubi Hun family is three years younger, but it is the meat of Aunt Zhou's heart.

At first, he wanted Ayu, but he was frightened by her value, so he changed his mind to the Hun family.

Ge Sibao has not dared to mention it in the past few years, for fear that the Hun family will be jealous, but today she mentioned it generously, just like a punch hitting his soft underbelly, making him breathe rapidly.

"Lang Jun doesn't have to be like this, just say it boldly if you want to!" The Hun family didn't care, she was a veteran among the flowers, she hadn't seen anything before, and she knew that she had guessed right.

"This, this, this is not a joke!" Ge Sibao said angrily, "Where did I go to find so much money to redeem her?"

"Hey, Ge Lang is in charge of hundreds of people, is there still a shortage of money on hand?" Zhou's mother screamed in surprise.

"Although I manage people, I follow the rules, the court in the yamen gives a salary, and the green shirt team gives another allowance, how can there be the slightest excess? If it is found out that it is not good to be played, the dismissal is light, and if it is not good, it will be assigned to cut down trees and mine miles!"

Ge Sibao thought that Aunt Zhou was really here to marry a girl, so he quickly got up and said, "Please atone for your sins, it is enough to have a lady, and you don't dare to think about it anymore." The kindness between the eldest mother and Ayou, Ge was really ashamed, so he had to make amends!" After speaking, sing a big song.

The two women exchanged glances, and Aunt Zhou got up and helped him up and pressed him back into the chair, saying, "Don't panic, this time

But it's not a joke. There was a big man who ordered him to come down on an errand.

If Ge Lang does it, not only will Ayou belong to you, and the old woman will not take a penny, but the big man will also reward you with 500 yuan, a property, and give you the position of the head of the county (county lieutenant) in Jiujiang, and then your family will move over. How so?"

"This, this ......." Ge Sibao was dazed and muttered, "Could it be that the heavens have opened their eyes, where can such a good thing fall on me?"

He looked at the two women and thought they weren't joking, so he asked, "Mom, how big are the big guys you said?" Aunt Zhou smiled and said nothing, Ge Sibao looked at the Hun family: "Bigger than Zhou Zhixian? Magistrate? Isn't it going to be a political envoy?"

"Eh, Ge Lang is really a person who has been an official, and even the political envoy knows it." Aunt Zhou smiled, but shook her head and said, "When the political envoy sees that person, he has to kneel!"

Ge Sibao shuddered, he swallowed hard to let it choke on himself, and then stayed for a long time, looked up and asked, "Mom, what does that big man want to know, or what does he want Sibao to do?" As long as someone has the ability to do it, he will never give up!"

Aunt Zhou laughed again: "It's just to ask you to inquire about some news, why 'ten thousand deaths?'" You men, you are ....... Hehehe!"

After returning from the drill, Li Dan heard that the governor was waiting in the hall, so he trotted into the courtyard.

This courtyard is the property of Yingtan squire Yang Tingwang (the one who recommended Yang Shijie, Yang Shijie is now acting as an agent of the county in Yujiang), and Li Dan borrowed it as a temporary residence. When I entered the courtyard, I saw Zhao Chongbi admiring the carving on the partition window with his hands behind his back, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"I wanted to change my clothes and report to the adults, but I didn't expect you to come first. But what's the urgency?" Li Dan asked.

"There's no urgency, but you're ...... dust." Governor Zhao smiled and looked him up and down.

"Then you wait, I'll go in and take off my armor and scrub it." After Li Dan finished speaking, he turned around and walked to the back hall, but was stopped by the other party.

"There is a will, I have to rush to see Shi Shuai, but I can't wait for you to change my clothes." After saying that, he got out of the way, and Li Dan noticed that there was a person standing not far from him. Hey, isn't that Liu Xi?

As soon as he was stunned, he heard Liu Xi shout: "There is a decree, Jiangnan West Dao Xuanfu Division experience, and Raozhou regimental training makes Li Dan accept the order!"

"Minister Li Dan, kowtow! Greetings to the Divine Decree!" As soon as Li Dan knelt down, the generals and guards who followed behind him all knelt down, and the sound of the armor leaves rang out.

Liu Xi saw that he was much calmer and smoother than last time, so he couldn't help but smile slightly, and slowly opened the scroll to read.

This holy decree at the end of the eighth year of Jingwu said that because of Li Dan's meritorious service in reinforcing Shangrao, he was promoted to a first-class medal, and he was allowed to promote six subordinates to be the chief bookkeeper and county lieutenant of the recovered counties, and at the same time gave 20 deputies of the general banner of the forbidden army and 15 deputies of 100 households for Li Dan to reward him for meritorious service.

"Chin this!" After Liu Xi finished reading it, he rolled up the holy decree and put it in Li Dan's hands, and arched his hand with a smile: "Congratulations to Master Li, we really met again, in response to your words, I can bring good news!"

In the camp in Jiangbei, Lou Shiming stood in front of the generals: "Can't attack? There are a few remnants of the defeated army on the other side, and you tell me that you can't attack it, are they powerful or are you stupid?"

"Second Young Marshal Hui, this ...... It's not that the brothers don't want to do their best." One of the leaders looked at the group and whispered, "Everyone is muttering in private, saying that Lou Shuai didn't give the order for us to chase us so far ....... There was a bit of drumming in everyone's hearts. So, that's why ......."

"So it's half-hearted, isn't it?" Lou Shiming sneered: "Father didn't give the order, his old man hasn't left the one-third of an acre of land in Shangrao since the beginning of this year.

Let me ask you, what will our tens of thousands of troops eat if we are still around that broken city in the spring of next year? Do you gnaw on the bark?" He looked at the leaders around him bowing their heads, sighed, patted the shoulders and backs of several people, and said:

"The brothers follow me, and I have to find a way out for them. I know that a large number of people will die in attacking that city, am I still obsessed with asking you to die?"

"Well, I said Second General, we didn't understand what you said

。 What does this westward pursuit of Yintuo have to do with next spring?"

It was the faithful Qu Shuai who spoke, Wang Shixin, who was nicknamed King Joeone, who brought 7,000 people to join forces with Lou Zishi this time, and was commanded by Lou Shiming according to the meaning of the eldest prince Lou Shiyong.

This time, Huo and Yintuo divided the captured equipment of the two thousand people, which was the time when he was enthusiastic about Lou Shiming, but his mind really didn't turn around, so he had to ask.

"Qu Shuai, what the second general means is that if we don't participate in the attack on Shangrao, we will chase Yintuo to the west, even if we can't defeat them, we will occupy all the territory of his four counties first!" Explained in godliness.

After learning that Yintuo was dead, Lou Shiming allowed him to quietly find a burial place under the guidance of the captive, and re-bury and bury Yintuo, and cried bitterly, Lou Shiming said that he was a loyal person, so he asked him to join the army.

Listening to this "explanation" in piety, not only Wang Shixin understood, but everyone present woke up. If you think about it, it makes sense!

Originally, the Second Heavenly King had Guangfeng and Chaoyang in his hands, and if he took Leadshan, Xing'an, Geyang and Guixi, it would be the territory of six counties!

And who wants to sleep in the wild and live in a tent all day long, and who doesn't want to live in the county seat and hug the little girl? Everyone whispered for a moment, and they all felt very excited, and their eyes flashed with a green light that they had not seen for a long time.

Wang Shixin stroked his beard and nodded frequently: "Oh, I see. No wonder the second general asked Huang Zhougong to cross the river to lead mountain, it turns out that you have already planned?"

"Yintuo has no more than two thousand troops in Geyang and other places, and the three counties in the west are not so dangerous, and all he can rely on is Lead Mountain City. As long as the lead mountain is conquered, the rest of the troops will surely lose their hearts, and then there will be only one way to subdue!" Lou Shiming said.

Due to the need to crusade against the rebellious name, he has not disclosed the news of Yintuo's death until now, and his subordinates still think that Yintuo is on the other side.

"My brother is already confident, so needless to say. According to the arrangement, I went to seize Xing'an, and the princes worked hard to kill the river, forcing Yintuo to continue to flee west.

At that time, we will block him in front of and behind Geyang, so that he has no way to go to the sky and no door to enter the ground, and great things can be done!" Lou Shifan raised his hand, revealing the tattoo on his arm to encourage loudly, and everyone shouted in unison, "Okay!"

"This dick is getting worse and worse! Why is the third child joining in the fun?" In the Chashan camp, Lou Zishi slapped the table angrily. Compared to half a year ago, his skin is fairer and his eye bags are darker, which is obviously due to the color of the wine.

"You're also foolish enough to give him so many men. It's good that he took 20,000 at once, should we attack or not?" He pointed to his eldest son Lou Shiyong and asked.

"My lord, hold on." He Zhang sighed and persuaded, "The official army has surrounded Yushan, and the Fujian army on the southern front has also occupied various passes, and will attack in a big way as long as the winter passes.

Now that the Yang family father and son have been defeated, Hongdu (Nanchang) can transfer troops south to block the west without scruples, and we have no way to go unless we hide in the mountains to the north.

And I estimate that the imperial court must have also transferred troops to Raozhou, and Dexing and Wannian may not be able to get by!"

"Uh, Strategist, if you say that, aren't we dead?" Qiu Keqin spread out his hands and shouted, he still shouted He Zhang as a military advisor according to the old habit.

"General, don't worry." He Zhang waved his hand: "Although the situation is not good, at least the war in the west has just ended, and the officers and troops are taking advantage of the winter to rest. The west gate is not closed, if we move faster, we can still rush out!

From Luxi to Jianchang, and then go south, avoid the main force of the Fuzhou official army and rush into Ganzhou, so that Zhao Chongbi, the governor of southeast Jiangxi, has no way to wait for me!"

Lou Shiyong looked at his father's face and knew that he was still unwilling, so he asked, "Mr. Lin Quan, is there any other way to do this?"

He Zhang smiled bitterly: "Can the eldest prince be sure to conquer Shangrao before spring? If not, you have to go! Otherwise, the whole army will lack food to eat in the coming spring, and the end will be no different from defeat."

After he finished speaking, he arched his hand upwards: "My lord, although the second prince has done something on his own, he has also done a good thing, he can take over Yintuo's subordinates and occupy all the territory by the way, so that my army will march westward, and there will be no obstacles on the way."

Please give an order, simply reprimand Yintuo's injustice, and order the second son

Marshal Zhengxi, the third prince is the vanguard, the two of them are in front to open the way for the whole army, let's break out of the encirclement and let the little emperor stare at him!"

"So, what about the founding of the country?" Lou Shiyong asked hesitantly, peeking at his father.

"The eldest prince, the founding of the country can be anywhere, the Taizu of this dynasty founded the country in Haozhou, and finally proclaimed the emperor in Yingtian, which shows that the founding of the country and the emperor can not be in the same place.

If you hit Ganzhou, you can also build a country there! In the Five Dynasties, Wu Yue was divided into Hangzhou, and the Southern Han Dynasty was divided into Fuzhou, what does it matter?

The key is to give hope to the soldiers, now that the enemy is blockaded on all sides, with fortified cities in front and enemy reinforcements in the rear, and the food is getting less and less, how can there be no reason for morale not to waver?

Therefore, I advise the lord to follow the trend, and never cling to one city or one place. The situation of friend and foe is changing, and if we continue like this, we will be trapped in a well, and the gods will not be able to save ourselves!

My lord, what does the court call us? Roving bandits! The reason why it flows is that they are afraid; is also the reason why it flows, so that the righteous army can flow without rotting, like the spring breeze blowing and growing like the grass! If I sit still and wait, that's what the court wants most!"

He Zhang said impassionedly, and even Qiu Keqin and Long Hui, who always looked at each other unpleasantly, felt reasonable, and rarely nodded in unison.

"So, everyone agrees with Mr. Lin Quan?" Lou Zishi looked at everyone's expressions and made a decision: "Okay, we can only talk about tomorrow when we are alive, let's move in first, and then make plans to build a country when the situation becomes favorable to me!"

Besides, Yang He is my old brother, when he went west, he ambushed the officials and soldiers who came to help Shangrao on the way, which was kind to us. Now that he is trapped in the mountains, how can I see death and not save him?

Please ask the gentleman to draft the paperwork for the second and third children. Boss, you wait and get ready, let's leave Shangrao. The Chinese army will cross the river early tomorrow morning and retreat to Guangfeng!"

When the order to retreat reached Chaoyang, the more than three hundred defenders here did not know what to do.

Chaoyang is not even a county seat, to be precise, it was originally just a military town under Guangfeng, which was specially used to monitor the quarry.

Because the stones used to build the wall of Shangrao and the palace wall of the county prince came from here, they put a hundred officials in the guard, and they even built a wall for themselves that is one zhang high, one zhang thick, and seven hundred steps long.

Later, Lou Shiming was photographed, and his younger brother was moved here and sent troops to guard it.

The guard general is nominally the child's uncle, and Du Jing, who is unwilling to participate in the rebellion, is actually Lou Shiming's friend Wang Fan.

This Wang Fan received the task from Lou Shiming to protect Lou Shiji, and he was only under his command.

Unexpectedly, when the Guangfeng guard gave assembly orders to various places, he did not forget the "fly meat" of Chaoyang, which made Wang Fan embarrassed. To go or not to go, this has become a question worth thinking about!

He brought that order to Du Jing, hoping that Mr. Du would give him some guidance.

Ever since the child's mother had an accident, the nephew has been kept under close protection in a covered courtyard behind the kitchen.

The space is not small, but there are actually only five people: two uncles and nephews, two maids, and Du Jing's scholar.

Wang Fan greeted the guards outside the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he turned the shadow wall when he heard a voice say, "If you want to know what happened to this Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, you should first write the Three Character Sutra and show it to your uncle."

"Huh?" A six- or seven-year-old boy suddenly grabbed the man's arm and played with Laipi: "Uncle, you can't do this! You always ask me to write on the festival, how annoying!"

"Hehe, if I were you, I'd go in and write. With this trickery, you can write at least two sentences and twelve words, right?"

The child was very upset, but helpless, so he climbed down from his uncle with a pout, and a maid came up to him with a smile and led him into the house. Du actually got up from the side of the patio and looked at Wang Fan with his hands behind his back: "What's the matter, you're moving?"

"How does the gentleman know to move?" Wang Fan was taken aback, and respectfully handed over the document to him for a look. After reading it, Du handed it back to him, sneered and said, "Still can't beat it? Hmph, why bother with today!"
