Chapter 570: Thousands of rocks, beacon fires and seas (Part 2)
In the winter of the eighth year of Qianfu, Yang Shi of Dongchuan rebelled and led his troops to attack Xingzai. He first defeated Shen Ce, and the Xichuan soldiers were at Shenyuanchuan, and then captured Daluo City in Chengdu. Yu Xingzai asked to kill Tian Lingzi and Chen Jingxuan, but the emperor refused; so he forced his attack on Zicheng.
The general of Xichuan, Yang Maoyan, led his troops to support him, but was buried in the suburbs of the city. The emperor then went to the envoy to ease him, but Tian Chen did not see him. The army immediately became angry and resentful and attacked him again. When he was tired and was exhausted, he asked him to ask him for help, and he was allowed to go inside to search and take him.
Suddenly, when he heard that the general of Xichuan, Gao Renhou, was attacking Zizhou, the army was shaken and the army was free to reward him, and ordered him to plunder the entire city. At the beginning, he decided to do so. At that time, there were Tian, Chen, and Mao Qiang troops to attack;
The army established a general Hao Qiang to fight against Mo Kechi, and was defeated. Another general Zhang Shi'an retreated without asking for help. So the soldiers in Dongchuan were all in chaos and could not be stopped. Half of the remaining troops begged to surrender to Xing's place, and half of them returned west by holding the army.
When he arrived at Lutou Pass, the general Zheng Junxiong was lured by Gao Renhou of Zizhou. He took the night to attack Shi Li and his tent, and beheaded hundreds of levels to pass on to Zizhou. Zitong City was then captured. Gao Renhou established himself as the descendant of Dongchuan, and also represented Zheng Junxiong as the Han (Prince) and Mian (Prince) defense capital training envoy.
The Dongchuan Rebellion was first settled.
On the winter solstice of the same year, Zhongwu's four capitals ran away to Xingyuan Prefecture. When the commander of Jing, Song Hao, was expelling Jia, Niu Xu, and occupied the Shanxi Jingjie. He then led his troops to attack but failed and fought against Hanzhong City. He retreated and plundered the territory and then went south to occupy Xing, Li, Lang, and gathered the states, and proclaimed himself the governor.
The mountains (south) and the west (road) are starting to chaos again.
"Shudu's Farewell Abbreviation. Anecdotes of Tang"
——I am the dividing line—
"Li Siya, who belongs to the special service team of the Social Mediation Department, is now responsible for accompanying her wife... but please give me instructions."
A woman in a civilian holding a basket of persimmon cakes came over slowly and whispered with a soliciting smile.
"It's you. Where is your righteous brother Lin Shenhe..."
Zhou Huaian thought about it a little familiarly before remembering such a person; but he reached out to pick up the persimmon cakes in the basket.
As an important member of the Wu Laohui, the Tu gang that worked in Annan, she was originally arranged to train corresponding intelligence personnel in Canton and participate in the supervision of those gray areas and underground businesses, and did a very effective job.
Obviously, after the Taiping Army's center of gravity shifted to Jinghu, she was also transferred from the relatively stable Guangzhou and joined the secret front sequence of the Social Mediation Department in Hunan, Jingnan, Shannan and other places within the ridge, to investigate and prevent spies.
"He went to the external transfer department of the enemy's Ministry of Works and should be attending the event now..."
Li Siya returned to Tao with a normal expression.
Now the external part of the enemy's Ministry of Works is temporarily divided into four teams: Sanchuan, Guannei, Jianghuai and Heshuo. The focus of his investment and the cover identity of his actions are also different. I don't know which direction he was sent.
"Okay, I'll send me a message, let the Social Mediation Department find out the flips on the street, and then let our people supervise it, and maybe you will find something."
Zhou Huaian finally picked out two darkest and largest persimmon cakes from the basket, and stuffed the paper paper wrapped in a few copper coins into it.
"Sister obeys the order..."
She nodded and returned to the street to pick her up. Then she was surrounded by several "customers" who were leaning forward, and quickly took things and took the orders in a fake business.
As a qualified regime, it is necessary to severely crack down on and suppress potential rebel forces and destroy elements. However, at the same time, it must be able to accommodate some dissidents who are irrelevant to the overall situation or irrelevant details.
For example, appropriate criticism and opposition that are only at the verbal stage can be enhanced through controversy and debate. Just like the public opinion means of some polite and slander fans and small scoldings in later generations can also be placed in these street publications.
In addition, there are some ulterior motives of rumors and slander. These popular carriers can be used to further increase the extreme exaggeration and complete absurdity in order to achieve counterproductive reverse education and confusion effects.
"Zhou Lang...Zhou Lang..."
When Zhou Huaian talked about these temporary touching divergent thinking, he saw Hong Yaoer squatting in front of a stall for a while before he waved to him.
Zhou Huaian looked at it and saw that it was a hunter's stall. There were many hunting objects on the dirty and tattered skin surface. There were the spines of unknown animals, several complete big teeth, blood-stained rabbits and hard pheasants. There was also a pole with a label on the side, representing a temporary stall that had paid the sanitation fee and occupied the road.
The hunter who set up a stall was a middle-aged man with thick joints on his back, thick joints on his hands and feet, and a yellow beard. He was wrapped in animal skin pants and a grinding clog knife on his waist, and his feet were also placed with untied bow arm chords, and a few rusty arrows.
He was sitting cross-legged on the two or three stacks of skins, looking at Hong Yao'er, who was squatting in front of the stall, covered his mouth from time to time, making heart-wrenching coughs.
This made the guards who were following Zuo Jinyiwei a little nervous and slowly approached from three sides to form a faint encirclement. As a result, the pedestrians who were interested in the street were blocked by them and had to go around, making the stall increasingly unattended.
Of course, Zhou Huaian himself doesn't have to worry about this, because his scanning ability that radiates from time to time is the best safety guarantee method. Even in a place with a large number of people, it is enough to identify various suspicious and dangerous tendencies.
Just like this hunter's vital signs are even weaker than ordinary people; his legs, feet and arms are damaged in old age. If he wants to act rashly, he will be killed by the sieve of the nearby special service personnel's portable sword and flying knife.
But because of this, the hunter who was watching clearly felt something was wrong, and slowly sweated from his forehead, and said in a squirming voice: "Xiaolang, this Xiaolang...you can take it away if you think about it."
"Brother Zhou... can I want that..."
Hong Yaoer, who had no idea about this strange atmosphere, looked at Zhou Huaian with some anxiety and pointed to a corner of the stall.
Zhou Huaian then discovered that beside the hunter, there was a small animal trembling in balls. He was tying on his limbs by a straw rope and curled up on the ground, looking pitiful.
Although the furry gray-brown fur was covered with dust, the mung bean-like eyes, ring-spotted eyeliner, and sharp mouth and black nose still made Zhou Huaian recognize it at first. Isn’t this a “just noodles” from childhood?
"This man, this man, I caught this grey croaker in a tree hole, and this one survived in one nest. Although there was not much meat, it could be used as a fur hat for the young man after it was peeled off... You look at the tail, just covering your neck."
The hunter also reacted as if he had been amnesty. He quickly picked up the slight noodles that had been breathless, shook them hard and waved his hands. "No money, you just take it away..."
"How can this be...?"
Zhou Huaian suddenly raised his face slightly and said, Hong Yao'er's eyes also dimmed, and then he continued to say.
"How can I get people without paying money? Is it enough to give you fifty big money?"
"There are so many, so many... I have enough to cover all my family's belongings."
The hunter waved his hand in panic.
"Then wrap everything up for me, and go and have a hot bowl and add some clothes."
Zhou Huaian took out half a bunch of money from his sleeve bag without saying a word and handed it hard to his hand as dry as a tree bark. In this way, the other party with thin clothes would no longer have to continue setting up a stall in this cold day, and could drink hot water or ginger porridge.
"Thank you, my husband."
The hunter touched the heavy money in his hand, and almost opened it to his ears with a grin, and then he was scrambling to pack up all the things and asked the accompanying personnel to take them over.
Then, after looking at Hong Yao'er for a while, he was eager to try and carefully picked up the small "simple noodles" from his hand, and hugged it tightly regardless of the dirt and couldn't let go of it, touching and cleaning its fur.
Only at this moment, she was like a girl who really belonged to this age, but not the "little lady" who was so obedient and shy in daily life, or the image of an elder who worked hard in front of two little white hairs.
"Yaoer..."
"Um.."
"This little thing seems to have rolled her eyes..."
Zhou Huaian pointed to the one in her hand who was hugged and was breathless and said:
"ah.."
She suddenly let go of her hand and threw the little thing to the ground, screamed a few more times, and then she was so shocked that she hurriedly picked it up, but she began to struggle desperately in her hands and twisted left and right and screamed, making her feel more and more at a loss.
"Don't worry..."
At this time, Zhou Huaian had already taken the empty persimmon cake basket from Li Siya who was tactful again, and picked up the little thing's neck skin, threw it into the basket quickly, and suddenly came to her and used her claws to protect her face and curled her tail again, shrinking into a ball.
Then the cloth covering the basket showed its furry little head, which looked like a small swaddle. Zhou Huaian then picked up Hong Yao'er's little hand and checked it, but several red marks had been scratched.
"Fortunately, there is no skin break, otherwise the paws of this wild animal will be very dirty, which will be troublesome. Don't be so anxious in the future. I also have to raise this thing, I have to go back and wash it clean and trim the paws. I'm also blaming me for not explaining it clearly in time."
Zhou Huaian said heartbrokenly while stroking the scratches.
"It's not my fault, it's all me..."
Hong Yaoer lowered her head with a slightly red face, and pressed her big hand against her heart. After blocking her left and right for several breaths, she spoke again as if she was relieved and determined:
"Actually... the Empress kept asking about the situation here, Langjun..."
"I know... this is also reasonable and proper."
Zhou Huaian looked at each other lightly and said with a smile.
"No, I think it's a bit bad, it's really bad... I don't want to tell them either..."
Hong Yaoer said seriously.
However, at this time, a sudden burst of uproar and noise came from the direction of the city gate, and then it turned into a faint weapon attack and a rapid scream, and then a whistle sounded everywhere outside the city.
The security personnel scattered in casual clothes were also hurriedly surrounded. According to the instructions and instructions in the emergency plan, they took out weapons to warn the surroundings, while using their bodies to cover Zhou Huaian and the others, moving towards the nearest military camp.
——I am the dividing line—
In Chang'an City, Huang Chao, the Emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty, looked unpredictable, walked out of the main hall where Empress Cao was; he sat in the palace servants and walked towards the Wanchun Hall of Concubine Liu to the west without looking back.
In the hall, only Empress Cao was left to scold her angrily:
"The emperor thought I was. He finally raised a daughter to comfort me, but he gave it up to win over others... What else do you want now? Are you willing to destroy all your lifelong entrusted by the Huang family? "
"What good things did you do under my name? Now you still have the face to blame me for not teaching my daughter well. What did you do in your early years? I have never used any thoughts from beginning to end, so how can I expect my child to recognize you?"
