Chapter 159 Chaohu Incident(1/2)
Two quarters of an hour later, Wu Mo, who was summoned, came hurriedly.
He is a civilian and does not come on the field to kill enemies.
Because Shui Jin had limited civil service positions, Wu Mo quickly emerged and took over the logistics work, and now he is in use.
This time he did not go down to recruit soldiers, because he was counting the number of Dingkou in the city.
The soldier who was ordered to pass the message was ordered by Huo Bao and had already told Wu Mo about Shi Cong's identity.
His future brother-in-law will be born in Hezhou in March. In March, something happened on the way to get married with his father. He and his sister temporarily live in Hezhou.
Wu Mo's heart was very complicated.
When he didn't know, the marriage was still going on?
Huo Baozhong introduced the two.
These two people met for the first time.
Wu Mo paid attention to Shi Cong. Seeing that he did not hide his hatred in his eyes, but he was not guilty, he knew that he had been deceived by the second wife before, and the Shi family did not regret the marriage.
Shi Cong saw Wu Mo's expression was open and without any regrets. He thought of his deceased father who suffered a sudden disaster due to his marriage, and became more and more angry. He clenched his fists tightly and couldn't help but take action.
Huo Bao said: "You have a good talk. After all, there is a second house in Wu's family that is mixed up in the first place, so there will inevitably be any misunderstandings..."
After all, it was two private affairs, Huo Bao went out with Niu Qing and left them to argue with him.
Niu Qing said astonished: "This Wu family has done a great sin, and the second master of Shi is not wronged!"
He was fooled to send his bride, and if he either met a bandit on the road, he would send his daughter to a fire pit.
With the sexual behavior of Mr. Wu and his son, Miss Shi was deceived into marrying a fool, and then she could end up well?
But when an accident happened, my daughter saved it, but she also lost her life to Mr. Shi Er.
For the Shi family, it is a disaster.
Huo Bao nodded.
This second wife of the Wu family is really worth dying.
Fortunately, the second wife of the Wu family was the one who made trouble, leaving a little room for this marriage.
Otherwise, there would be a life in between and the marriage would not be continued.
As the two were talking, they heard the sound of "da da da da da da" horse hooves sounded rapidly, from far to near.
No horses are allowed in the city, except for emergency military information.
The two of them looked at the gate and saw ten riders coming, and everyone turned over and dismounted.
The two leaders, one is a thousand households under the leader of the Ma Village, and the other is a black and red face, with a very eye-catching sight.
Everyone looked dusty.
"Uncle is here, but is there something wrong in Chuzhou?"
Huo Bao hurriedly asked.
Na Qianhu hurriedly said, "I have met Mr. Xiaobao. There is nothing wrong in Chuzhou. This is General An of Chaohu Navy. I went to Chuzhou to ask for the fifth master... The Sixth master sent me to send General An over..."
The Chuzhou Army planned the Chaohu Navy and was informed of the news.
The old navy commander had three teams under the command of the Yu family, the father and son, the two swords of General Sheng, and the An brothers each led one.
This General An looked at his age and was thirty years old, and he should be the eldest of the An brothers.
Huo Bao looked at Niu Qing: "Brother Qing, where is my father?"
"I just went to see Mr. Lin."
Huo Bao did not delay and took the two to the study to find Huo Wu.
...
In the study, Huo Wuzheng and Mr. Lin talked about the news they had just obtained.
In the chaos in eastern Hubei, it was once the right guardian of Shoutian Wan, who was the right guardian of the Tong Sect Master. In May, he had occupied several prefectures in Hubei, with more than 100,000 troops. He was appointed as the emperor in Qichun in July. He used to regard himself as the descendants of the dynasty emperor and the country was named "Daqing".
In August, Daqing sent troops to two groups, one to the south to fight Hunan and the other to the east to fight Jiangxi.
Qichun was thousands of miles away from Hezhou. The news spread late and I only learned about this.
The two looked at each other, both anxious.
There is not much time left for the Chuzhou Army.
If you delay any further, Daqing's army will come over.
At that time, if the Chuzhou army wants to attack Jinling, they will be attacked from the back and forth.
"Luzhou can't be delayed any more. Don't care about the navy and take down several counties..." Huo Wudao.
Master Lin said helplessly: "It really doesn't work, so I can only do this, and I will surrender while fighting."
Before he finished speaking, he heard movements outside.
"Dad, Mr. Lin, there is news from Luzhou!"
Huo Wu hurriedly said, "It's Xiaobao, come in quickly..."
When people came in, they knew that they were the messengers in Luzhou, and Huo Wu and Mr. Lin both took the lead.
"An Yong, the commander of the Luzhou Navy Right Army, met Marshal Huo!"
An Yong had a very respectful attitude and bowed to him.
"It was General An who came in person, please get up quickly!"
Huo Wu hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and he was very close: "I was mentioning the Chaohu Navy with Mr. Lin. The old master of the navy and our Mr. Lin are still old friends. Mr. Lin is also talking about his old friends..."
The Chaohu Navy, more than 20,000 soldiers were all from water bandits. A few years ago, the imperial court sent people to recruit people and ordered a respected veteran general to come and command the command.
That one is really an old friend of Master Lin, but his old friends are nonsense.
Master Lin used to say that the old governor was old and knew that once he died or retreated, no one would suppress his powerful generals, and the Chaohu Navy would be in chaos.
When An Yong heard this, his body trembled, his eyes turned red, and he said, "We are all... we were poisoned by the prefect of Luzhou the day before yesterday..."
Huo Wu was shocked: "How could this be?" But he couldn't help but look at Master Lin.
Master Lin is waiting for this news?
The old general was known for his reputation, so he would be unfair to die in a conspiracy.
Even if Master Lin is for Chuzhou, these methods are uncomfortable.
Master Lin stood up with a "ten": "Poison? How could this happen? I heard that he was sick before and had already written a letter to retire..."
An Yong was stunned when he heard this, obviously not knowing the news of the letter: "Lord Du Tong has indeed been sick several times in the past six months. Is it already a memorial?"
"Others don't know about this, but the governor of Luzhou should know about it. There is no need to do this in one go." Master Lin frowned.
Different paths of civil and military.
The post road system is in the civil service system, and the prefect will know the movements and stills there.
Even if you don’t know the content of the book, it’s not difficult to guess when you think about the age of the old master.
"But, he died of poisoning. He died of poisoning after returning from the banquet!"
"What you saw with your own eyes? You saw him go to a banquet and drink?"
"The chief of the governor died of poison, which was what we saw with our own eyes... The magistrate's yamen was having a banquet, and General Sheng, the commander of the Left Army, was accompanied by... The magistrate of Luzhou drew troops from six counties, and 40,000 officers and soldiers surrounded Chaohu..."
If it weren't for this, An Yong wouldn't have brought the letter of refuge from Yu Xiu, the deputy commander of the navy, to Chuzhou for reinforcements.
Master Lin stood up and said, "Fifth Master, please quickly summon several generals to send troops to Chaohu... This matter is a fraud. It is probably because Sheng Shuangdao colluded with the prefect of Luzhou and planned to be the chief commander of the navy. Deputy General Yu and several generals are in danger..."
Just from the official position, we know that the old governor retired, and the deputy governor who is qualified to take over as the navy commander is the deputy governor.
This deputy governor, Yu Xiu, is from Chuzhou, and this person is the one who really has the same old relationship with Master Lin.
Master Lin had already sent a letter to this friend before and asked him for help on behalf of Huo Wu.
Because of this reason, he was surrounded and suppressed by Luzhou soldiers this time. Yu Xiucai wrote a handwritten letter, hoping to bring more than 20,000 soldiers and more than 1,500 warships to Huo Wu.
The military situation was urgent, and Huo Wu immediately ordered the general who was recruiting troops in the three counties to go to Hanshan County, bordering Luzhou.
There is also the water advent of the troops recruited outside Hezhou City, which is also called to be summoned.
Deng Jian was bored and came over when he got the news. He immediately took the initiative to ask for his orders, hoping to lead the crowd first.
Chaohu Lake is large, and the so-called encirclement and suppression of the Luzhou Army is also concentrating its forces to block the Yuxi River, which connects Chaohu Lake and the Yangtze River.
Forty thousand officers and soldiers were displayed there, how could Huo Wu dare to let Deng Jian rush forward?
However, the Chaohu Navy's situation is in crisis, and if it is stopped, An Yong next to him will feel heartbroken.
"Take the three thousand people in the water, and the two thousand people in Xiaobao... mainly harassment, and fight after the army is combined." Huo Wu thought for a while and said.
The three thousand old soldiers who entered the water can replenish their troops.
Xiaobao...
To be continued...
