Chapter 791 Dark Day
The fire in Yusuo Lake became smaller and smaller, and the continuous screams of the past were much smaller. Thousands of officers and soldiers had lost most of the losses without even having a fair fight with their opponents in this battle.
At dawn, the battle was coming to an end and the fire almost went out. Except for a few ships falling into the hands of the Huang family or being sunk, most of the ships were buried in the fire.
The officers and soldiers were either shot to death by arrows, cut to death by knives, drowned by water, burned to death, or were frozen to death in the lake. Looking around, the corpses floated all over the lake, which was shocking.
Huang Tianyi looked a little tired, yawned, stood up and stretched, suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile: "By the way, the Governor gave us such a big gift, we should also give us a gift, and the gifts are the family tradition of our Huang family."
Huang Zhigui seemed to understand something, nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, brother, I'm ready."
The shores around Yusuo Lake are as quiet as death.
Yuan Chongshang sat on the ground. This time the defeat was obviously a big blow to him. He did not stand up again since he was sitting alone last night.
"Sir, look..." a man suddenly shouted in surprise.
Many people have seen that a small boat was sailing towards this side from Yusuo Lake.
Chu Huan jumped onto a big stone and saw the boat slowly approaching. His eyes were sharp. At this time, he saw that there were two wooden racks standing on the boat. Two naked men were tied to the wooden rack and stood in parallel. There was only one boatman who was driving the boat. As the boat approached, everyone saw more and more clearly. The two people tied to the wooden rack were covered in blood, with countless wounds, and their blood had solidified. Both of them were hanging their heads, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
The guards under Chu Huan were not far behind Chu Huan at this moment. When Xuanyuan Sheng saw the boat coming, he waved his hand. Dozens of guards had already rushed over with skillful skills, bent their bows and arrows, and aimed at the coming boat.
Yuan Chongshang was surprised when he saw a small boat coming. He slowly stood up. The small boat was a distance from the shore and stopped. The boatman hid behind and whispered: "Is Governor Yuan here?"
Yuan Chongshang clenched his fists with both hands and said sternly: "Who are you?"
"Are you Governor Yuan?" the other party laughed mockly: "Governor, my master said that you gave him a generous gift. My master is most afraid of owing favor debts, so he returns a big gift."
"What do you mean?" The headmaster asked sternly beside Yuan Chongshang: "What do you want to do?"
"I wonder if the Governor still remembers these two?" The boatman hid behind the naked man and shouted: "These two are sneaking on the island. Just yesterday, my master arrested them and interrogated them. These two people recognized them as the Governor. My master respected the Governor. Since they were the Governor, he let them go and asked the Governor to return them to the Governor... These two people were alive just now, but I don't know if they are still alive now..." He poked out his hand from behind, looked into the noses of the two, and said with apologies: "Governor, I'm really sorry. I thought these two guys were strong, but... but I didn't expect that they all seemed to be dead without being frozen..."
Yuan Chongshang was furious. He was a high-ranking official and a dignified governor. His defeat was already anger. At this time, a small boatman was actually teasing him. This made him furious and shouted loudly: "Call him to death!"
The guard archers naturally would not obey his command and looked at Chu Huan. The boatman knew that something was wrong, but he was prepared for it. He laughed and said, "Shoot me to death? Governor, I'm afraid you don't have that ability."
He had already rushed to the side of the boat, as if he was intentionally showing his superb water nature. He pulled onions from the side of the boat and jumped up from the side of the boat. He rose into the air with an extremely graceful posture, and then he pulled down into the lake.
Almost as the man rose up, a feather arrow cut through the cold air like lightning and shot directly at the boatman.
The boatman never expected that there would be such a fast arrow. He even calculated that even if he deliberately humiliated Yuan Chongshang and jumped into the lake in a graceful posture, it would be a blink of an eye.
He never expected that in such a short time, an arrow would shoot towards him like a meteor.
He was in the air and had nowhere to leverage his power. He watched the sharp arrow shoot over. The moment he fell into the lake, the arrow penetrated his neck like a poisonous snake and penetrated through it.
In the dawn, this person fell into the water. He struggled in the lake. The lake water was filled with waves, but soon, the waves gradually disappeared. The person slowly sank into the lake. After the ripples spread, they recovered, but the red blood appeared on the surface of the lake.
Most people on the shore saw this fatal arrow. Everyone was in an extremely heavy mood and the atmosphere was extremely hazy, but this arrow made everyone slightly cheer up.
Everyone looked over, but saw that the arrow shot out was the young imperial envoy. At this time, Chu Huan was handing over the bow and arrow in his hand to the soldiers beside him.
Everyone was stunned. Most people saw Chu Huan wearing an official robe and thought he was just a civil servant. At this moment, they suddenly realized that the archery technique of this imperial envoy who seemed very low-key was so exquisite.
Of course, Chu Huan did not intend to show his archery skills in front of everyone.
In the battle of Yusuohu, the officers and soldiers were almost wiped out, and this attack on the government was extraordinary. Chu Huan knew very well that the Anyi Road is actually not stable now.
He knew very well that although the Huang family was labeled as a rebellion, the Huang family was a native family in Anyi. After gaining power, they operated in Anyi for another twenty years, which was deeply rooted in Anyi.
Now that the northwest is in turmoil, the southeast is in full swing, and bandits are everywhere. The entire empire is actually in a state of turmoil. This situation is most likely to make those who are ambitious.
Of course, it is impossible for the Huang family to have only Yusuohu and other people. Chu Huan believes that although after the Huang family was defeated into a rebellion, many forces that had intercourse with the Huang family quickly alienated and even separated, this does not mean that those people were in the court. In fact, he understood that many people were always waiting and watching. If the court gained power, those people would naturally remain unmoved. However, once the Huang family gained power, the environment in Anyi would become extremely sinister.
In this battle, Yuan Chongshang lost very thoroughly, while the Huang family won very thoroughly.
A small boatman dared to ridicule Yuan Chongshang in public. If the boatman could leave safely, it would undoubtedly be a defeat, and it would be another serious blow to the government represented by Yuan Chongshang.
He shot and killed the boatman, although he was only one person, at least on this dark day, a trace of candlelight lit up, and at least a trace of dignity remained in the government.
Chu Huan knew that Yuan Chongshang was the leader of the Anyi Road official government. At this moment, Yuan Chongshang's dignity was actually very important.
At this moment, someone had already jumped on the boat on the shore, approached and pulled the boat to the shore. Then someone went up to remove the two dead naked men, covered them with clothes, and placed them on the shore.
Yuan Chongshang walked hard and walked slowly to the side. When he saw the faces of the two, his face was even pale.
He put eyeliner on the island, and the two people in front of him were the ones he had put in secret.
Yuan Chongshang finally understood at this time that he thought he had planned very carefully and had made perfect plans, but in fact everything was in the control of the other party.
Everyone around him covered Yuan Chongshang. Yuan Chongshang only felt that his eyes seemed to be full of disdain. His plan to attack the night was completely used, resulting in almost annihilation of thousands of elite guards. This is undoubtedly a great shame and will surely become a ridiculous word for the world.
His body was originally very strong, but at this moment, he stared at the two corpses, and felt dizzy, dizzy, and spinning. He suddenly felt a suffocation in his chest, then he felt a sweet throat, darkness in front of him, and he had already leaned back, and heard screams from all over his ears. He could see Chu Huan flying towards him, and then he didn't know anything.
...
...
Governor's Office.
Yuan Chongshang felt that he had a nightmare. In the dream, he not only saw Huang Tianyi walking towards him with a steel knife with a grin, but also saw the cold face of His Majesty the Emperor.
Huang Tianyi disappeared, but His Majesty the Emperor waved his hand. Yuan Chongshang saw several executioners of five or three thick pounce on him and pressed him to the ground. A ghost-headed knife was cut off in the air. Yuan Chongshang screamed and woke up from his dream. He was shocked and sat up. Then he heard the miserable crying in his ears.
Amid the crying, a scream came instantly. Soon, a scream sounded in my ears: "Master, Master, you are awake... You scared us to death. Master, are you okay... Hurry up, let's bring the porridge here..."
Yuan Chongshang was gasping heavily. At this time, he didn't care about the screams around him. He raised his hand and touched his neck. He made sure his head was still on his neck. He then breathed a sigh of relief. After looking around, he found that he was lying on the bed with a quilt covered with a quilt. He turned his head to look at it. He saw that there were several women in the room, all of whom were his wives and concubines. At this time, he looked surprised, surrounded by the bed, talking all over and over, and seemed very noisy for a moment.
"Stop it all!" Yuan Chongshang heard the noise of chattering and was furious, "Who is the fucking cry? I twist her neck...!"
The women dared not shout again, but for a moment they were silent, and the house was as quiet as death.
"San Lao, come here and help me get up." Yuan Chongshang saw the third lady beside him. At this time, he saw that the woman was a little more pleasing to her. The third lady immediately came forward and advised softly: "Master, you have just woken up, take a break and don't get up. If you have any, just tell us to do it..."
Yuan Chongshang was very fond of the third wife, but he said angrily: "Why are there so much nonsense? Help me up quickly?"
The third lady did not dare to say much, so she carefully helped Yuan Chongshang up. Yuan Chongshang got out of bed. The third lady helped him walk to the table. Yuan Chongshang then sat down here and whispered to the teapot on the table. The third lady obediently poured a cup of tea for Yuan Chongshang. Yuan Chongshang took the tea cup, drank it in one gulp, raised her hand and wiped the tea at the corner of her mouth with the corner of her sleeve, and then asked, "How long have I slept?"
The third lady hurriedly said, "The master came back at noon yesterday. When he came back, he was unconscious and invited the doctor to come. The doctor said that the master was furious and boiled two pieces of medicine and fed it to the master...!"
Yuan Chongshang looked at the sky outside and asked, "What time is it now?"
"It's noon." The third lady replied.
"Sir Chu... Where is the imperial envoy?" Yuan Chongshang asked anxiously: "What's the situation there on Yusuohu Lake...?"
The third lady said, "Mr. Chu came here in the morning, came in and visited the master and left. He said that when the master woke up, he would send someone to notify him..." Thinking of something, he said, "Yes, the master of the Ministry of Revenue Department is still waiting in the main hall."
"Let him come here!"
When the headmaster came, he had just stepped into the door with one foot, and Yuan Chongshang had waved his hand to ask the women in the house to go out quickly. When they left, the headmaster arched his body and walked forward carefully to salute, "Sir, you are awake, take care of your health!"
"Let me tell me, what's the situation in Yusuohu Lake?" Yuan Chongshang said anxiously: "Fang Shihao... and the Imperial Guards of this Governor, how many people survived?"
The headmaster's voice was quite heavy, "Report to my master, in this battle, we... almost all the soldiers who fought were wiped out...!" He lowered his head and looked up at Yuan Chongshang. Seeing that Yuan Chongshang was staring at him, he could only continue: "According to the count, less than 300 soldiers who survived from death were mostly killed in battle... they died in battle in the lake. The Huang family's rebellion... the rebellion captured some people... Now the surface of the Yusuo Lake is full of... all of them are corpses. The Huang family asked someone to come over to pass the message, saying that they asked us to send a few boats to clean up, and said... they also said... they said...!" He hesitated, but he didn't dare to continue.
