In desperation, Lin Yu simply told Lin Mu and everyone what had happened. At this time, Lin Mu, who was originally a false alarm, darkened her expression in an instant.

At this time, when Lin Yu saw his mother's expression, his expression changed, and he secretly blamed himself in his heart, and then hurriedly comforted, "Mother, you don't have to worry, our Lin family will be fine." ”

In the next half an hour, Mother Lin really no longer talked about his marriage with Yanran, but the center of all the topics revolved around him and his father.

"Marshal Lin, Lord Supervisor let me inform you, the army is ready, can you set off?" one of Xia Guogong's generals hurriedly walked over with two servants and said in a loud voice.

Lin Yu waved his hand at it and said, "Okay, I know what I said, please tell Lord Prison Jun, I'll be there later." ”

After sending Xia Guogong's family away, Lin Yu pretended to be relaxed and said to Lin's mother: "Mother, the child is not filial, and I can't spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you at home." ”

Mother Lin also knew the general situation, and did not cry like other delicate women, but said softly: "Xiaoyu, it is a big matter to quell the rebellion for the country, and you must not delay for a moment because of family matters." When you are out alone, be careful and take care of yourself. ”

When Lin Yu heard this, his eyes were slightly moist, he nodded heavily, and responded: "Mother, the child will take care of himself, and you should take care of your body." ”

After speaking, he said to Dongfang Yanran next to him: "Yanran, my mother will trouble you to take care of it." ”

Dongfang Yanran nodded again and again, and said, "Cousin, don't worry, I will take care of my aunt." ”

Before the words fell, Dongfang Yanran took off your jade pendant from her neck, and with a slight turn of her fingers, a whole piece of jade pendant was directly divided into two pieces. One of them is carved with a green dragon that goes straight into the sky, and the other piece is naturally a phoenix that has been singing for nine days.

"Cousin, you take this jade pendant, it will bless you with all safety. Dongfang Yanran put the jade pendant with Luan Feng back on her swan-like neck, and handed the other piece directly to Lin Yu.

When Lin Mu saw this scene, she also said, "Xiaoyu, this is Yanran's heart, you can take it!"

Lin Yu didn't want to disobey his mother's wishes, but as soon as he received it, his mother's words scared him so much that he almost threw the Qinglong jade pendant directly on the ground.

"Xiao Yu, this Qinglong Luan Feng is originally a token of love from our Oriental family to our children, you must keep it properly, don't live up to Yanran's affection. ”

"Stunned, a token of love?" Lin Yu's expression was extremely stunned. At this time, he suddenly remembered that his father seemed to have such a piece of such a green dragon jade pendant in his hand, although his father did not wear it often, but occasionally took it out to see.

After a few simple words, Lin Yu left home with Lin Yong, and together with Xiahou Ying, with an army of 100,000 gathered from the suburbs of Beijing, he marched towards Zhengzhou City.

At this time, Liang Cheng, who was stabbed by Yan Yun in the chrysanthemum, led an army of 300,000 to surround the direction of Zhengzhou City like a flood of the Yellow River. The company camp for more than 20 miles is like a black cloud rolling down the city, so that the entire Zhengzhou city is shrouded in the shadow of death.

"Master, master......" Lin Hao was in the hall, and when he was pacing back and forth, Uncle Zhao's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

When Lin Hao heard the voice, he thought that there was some urgent military situation, his expression darkened in an instant, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Uncle Zhao, is there any action of Liang Cheng's rebels?"

Zhao Bo shook his head again and again, and said breathlessly, "It's not a rebel, it's a son......

Hearing this, the solemn look on Lin Hao's expression deepened a little, and he hurriedly asked, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with him?"

Uncle Zhao hurriedly handed a note in his hand to Lin Hao, and said breathlessly, "Childe has sent a letter." ”

Lin Hao's solemn eyes flashed with a hint of incomprehension, and he hurriedly opened the note.

At the moment when the note was opened, the gloomy cloud that had condensed on his brow also dispersed, and he said in a loud voice: "Xiao Yu has really grown up and can take on the responsibility of the family." ”

Uncle Zhao's expression was full of confusion, but when he saw Lin Hao's expression showing a long-lost smile, he also knew that it was not a bad thing, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "Master, what did the son's letter say that made you so happy?"

Lin Hao returned the note to Uncle Zhao and said: "The emperor appointed Xiao Yu as the marshal of the counterinsurgency, Xia Guogong as the supervisor of the army, and transferred the army of Xuzhou Mansion, Jinan Mansion, Kaifeng Mansion, and the three mansions, totaling 200,000. It has already departed from the capital, and it is estimated that it will not take a few days to reach here. ”

Uncle Zhao's excited hands began to tremble, and he was a little incoherent with excitement, and said: "Master, it seems that our Lin family has been saved now, and Zhengzhou City has been saved......"

However, after Zhao Bo finished reading the note, the excitement that had just filled his expression immediately dissipated a lot, and he said: "Master, the prince said in the letter that the emperor wants to call you back to Beijing, is this ......?"

Before Uncle Zhao's words fell, Lin Hao waved his hand and said, "Outside, the king's order is not affected, not to mention that it is now a time of war." Of course, the emperor has to be prepared, which is also reasonable. No matter what, as long as our Lin family doesn't have anything to do. ”

"Report ...... Report ......" Just when Lin Hao and Zhao Bo were still immersed in the joy brought by Lin Yu's letter, a scout hurriedly ran over and shouted.

Seeing this scene, Lin Hao knew that something big had happened to Lu Dao, and hurriedly stepped forward, helped the scout who was about to fall down, and asked, "Don't worry, speak slowly, what's going on?"

"Return...... Lord-sama ...... Military Situation Emergency...... The 100,000 troops sent by Kaifeng Prefecture ...... Surrounded by rebels...... Zhongmu County ...... "The scout was out of breath and answered.

"What, the 100,000 army of Kaifeng Mansion is surrounded by rebels?" Lin Hao heard this, his expression darkened in an instant, and he asked urgently.

The scout nodded again and again, and responded: "Exactly, please also ask Lord Qincha to send troops to rescue quickly, otherwise, Lord Liu will be in danger, and Kaifeng Mansion will be in danger!"

Lin Hao's expression was solemn and he asked, "How many rebels are there, and who is leading the army?"

The scout hurriedly replied: "The specific number is unknown, but from the soldier company camp for more than ten miles, the number is at least more than 300,000, and the leading general is Liang Cheng, the vanguard of the rebel army." ”

"300,000 troops, Liang Cheng ......" Hearing this, Lin Hao's expression became even more solemn.

Kaifeng Mansion is the hinterland of the entire Central Plains, the entire Henan soldiers, half of them are stationed around Kaifeng Mansion, if Kaifeng Mansion is broken by the rebels, Zhengzhou City is surrounded by the rebels on three sides, and there is no danger to defend, and it will soon be captured. At that time, most of the Central Plains will be controlled by the rebels, and even if the imperial court sends a large army, it will be difficult to quell the rebellion in a short time.

If so, for Xiao Yu, the new counterinsurgency boss, the situation can be described as dire. And now that he has lost Luoyang City, if the rebels occupy Kaifeng Mansion and Zhengzhou City, if King Fu and Dongchang take the opportunity to make a big fuss and anger Long Yan, the consequences will be really unimaginable.

But this is obviously Liang Cheng's thief's plan to besiege the city and send reinforcements, if he rushes forward, it is very likely that he will be ambushed. Moreover, the strength of Zhengzhou City itself is stretched, and even if it goes, it will be difficult to repel the rebels.

Just when Lin Hao didn't know how to deal with it, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the letter in Zhao Bo's hand again, and said urgently: "Uncle Zhao, where are they now?"

Zhao Bo hurriedly replied: "When Gongzi sent a letter, he had just left the capital, and he should have passed Baoding City at this time!"

Baoding is far from Zhengzhou City, if it is a cavalry, it will be non-stop, and it will take two days to arrive. But Xiaoyu and they must still have a large number of infantry, and they also have to gather soldiers from Jinan Mansion and Xuzhou. In this way, if everything goes well, it will take six or seven days, or even longer.

After thinking for a while, he said, "You rush back now, tell your Lord Yin Liu, let him hold on, and I will send troops to Zhongmu City to rescue." ”

The scout replied and quickly departed.

After the scouts left, Lin Hao hurriedly said to Uncle Zhao: "Uncle Zhao, you immediately send a few brothers with good skills to inform Xiao Yu of this matter, and let him quickly lead the army to come." ”

Uncle Zhao immediately responded and said, "Yes, master, I'll do it!"

Before Uncle Zhao's words fell, he only heard Lin Hao say: "By the way, Uncle Zhao, by the way, I will go to the army of Xu, Lord Zheng Anliang, the prefect of Zhengzhou, General Gao Tingzhi, General Zhao Yanhui, A Feng Shaoxia, and Yanyun Shaoxia." ”

Within half an hour of Uncle Zhao's departure, the prefect of Zhengzhou City, the guards, and some generals who had broken through from Luoyang City with Lin Hao all gathered in the hall.

Lin Hao stared at the topographic map on the wall for a long time, and then sighed softly.

Zhengzhou Governor Zheng Anliang and Xu Shenjun and others were all secretly figuring out Lin Hao's thoughts at this time in their hearts. They have also heard a little about the 100,000 troops of Kaifeng Mansion being besieged by the rebels in Zhongmu City.

"My lord, are you worried about the fact that the 100,000 army of Yin Liu Xushou of Kaifeng Mansion was surrounded by the rebels in Zhongmu City?"

Lin Hao didn't say anything directly, and after a while, he turned around slightly, nodded slightly, and said, "Yes, now Liang Cheng led 300,000 rebels and surrounded Liu Xushou's 100,000 army in Zhongmu City. I wonder what you think about this?"

Although most people have heard about Zhongmu's siege, they are basically skeptical, and now when they hear Lin Hao say it in person, almost everyone suddenly gasps.

After a while, Zheng Anliang, the prefect of Zhengzhou, said respectfully: "My lord, Zhongmu City is only a small county town, and it is located on the edge of the Yellow River. And now it's all ten rooms and nine empty. There are only some old people and children who can't run, living a life without food and clothing. If you don't rush to the rescue, I'm afraid that the 100,000-strong army won't last a few days, and it will be chaotic because of the lack of food. ”

Before Zheng Anliang's words fell, some civilian and military generals began to discuss and expressed their approval of his words one after another.

"My lord, the last general thinks that this move is inappropriate, the troops in Zhengzhou City, plus the soldiers we have defeated and retreated, are only 1120,000, and the troops themselves are stretched. Moreover, Master Zheng also said just now that the city wall of Zhongmu City has long been washed away by the flood, and now the 100,000 army of Kaifeng Mansion is still in a panic period when it is about to run out of food. And Liang Cheng's army of 300,000 turned a blind eye to this and only besieged it, which is very strange in itself. In the opinion of the last general, Liang Cheng wanted to besiege the city and send reinforcements, set up an ambush, and wait for us to go!" Xu Chendong immediately put forward a different opinion.

"Are we just like this, sit idly by, and let the rebels eat the 100,000 troops of Kaifeng Mansion under our noses?"

Suddenly, the faction headed by Zheng Anliang, who advocated immediately sending troops to rescue and relieve the siege of Zhongmu, and the faction led by Xu Chendong who advocated temporarily holding the troops still, directly began to quarrel in the hall.

The war of words and tongues is full of gunpowder, and it is not weaker than the war outside......
