The old manager placed Wei Fufeng and his party in the huge Zuo Mansion, with only dozens of old and weak left, empty.

Five days later, Wei Fufeng, who was living in vain, suddenly heard the old manager shouting in panic: "Go away, please."

Wei Fufeng was shocked and walked out of the main room quickly, almost colliding with the old manager, and reached out to support the old manager.

"Dear guest, please leave, don't go out." The old manager said anxiously, gasping.

"What's wrong?" Wei Fufeng asked knowingly.

"I heard that the Huainan army is coming." The old manager said anxiously.

Ten personal soldiers walked out of the wing room, each with excited eyes and high fighting spirit. They waited for too long.

Wei Fufeng helped the old manager into the main house and said, "Old man, it's too late to walk now. Is there no place to hide at home?"

The old manager was stunned and hesitated. Wei Fufeng said again: "Two people, the others left the Zuo Mansion to hide."

The old manager said, "If the Huainan army comes in, the distinguished guest will go to the hall to look for me."

Wei Fufeng thanked him, the old manager left, and Wei Fufeng followed him to the door and called on his personal soldiers to come in.

When he entered the room, the personal soldier leader asked, "Sir, are we close to the city gate now?"

"Do you want to die?" Wei Fufeng said bluntly.

The personal soldier leader raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean by hiding here? Don't you help me?"

Wei Fufeng was speechless. This guy was purely a brave but unscrupulous man. He said patiently: "Our inner responsibility is just a symbol. The real inner responsibility is the governor of Jiangzhou. When we run away, the enemy and our own people will kill us."

The personal soldier leader was speechless and clenched his fists unwillingly.

Wei Fufeng said again: "Don't worry, I will give you the opportunity to make meritorious service. When our army comes in, you will go out and kill the state yamen and seize the seal."

The personal soldier leader thought about it and asked, "My lord, may you not go?"

"What am I going to do? My family is not short of money. I am promoted to the governor of the state. I don't need to earn military merits desperately." Wei Fufeng said with confidence.

The personal soldiers were stunned by the bombardment, and Wei Fufeng said again: "You ten are fighting independently, they will die in battle or be disabled. I will give you 200 silver privately. If you have a big life, I will give you fifty silver to you alone when I go back to Yangzhou. Are you satisfied?"

"What sir said is true?" a burly personal soldier blurted out.

Wei Fufeng replied: "Man dies for money, birds die for food. You have seen my home in Yangzhou. People who deserve my hard work will die for money. The income of thousands of silver is almost the same. Don't compare with me."

The personal soldiers went silent, and soon the personal soldiers leader said, "The subordinates should protect the Lord."

Wei Fufeng waved his hand and said, "No need, let you go, it means that I have been an insider."

"I understand, follow the military orders of the elders." The personal soldier leader responded.

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "It's good if you understand. When you meet your own military officer, you will say that you will be killed and disbanded. The battle will be over. Come back and find me. I'll show my face and win military merits for you."

"No!" Junli, the personal soldier leader, responded, and for the first time I felt that Wei Fufeng was happy.

......

The Huainan army crossed Poyang Lake, and the vanguard of 50,000 soldiers were at the city. Among them, the 20,000 Jiangzhou soldiers led by Zhong Kuangfan personally, and 30,000 more ships needed to return to Jiangzhou to pick them up.

The southern army in Hongzhou Town, 60,000, retreated to the city without fighting, and quickly asked for help from other prefectures in Jiangxi. They rushed to Yuanzhou, asked for help from the governor of Yuanzhou, and then rushed to Changsha Prefecture for help.

Five thousand southern Sichuan troops escorted back, and when they came, they marched lightly and used silver to buy them on the way.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I bought grain and arrived in Hongzhou on the eighth day, traveling more than a hundred miles a day.

It was much slower to return. At most fifty miles a day, it could reach the border of Yuanzhou in five days. When it was about to arrive in Yichun County, Yuanzhou, he asked for help and chased after him.

The group of people who were traveling and getting married heard the news were like a bolt from the blue, and they were in a panic. Many people were thinking about their family’s property, and the elderly and weak wanted to go back to Hongzhou.

The fourth master of the Zuo family found Dong Ying, a military envoy from the southern Sichuan Army, and discussed the return to Hongzhou.

Dong Ying replied: "I was ordered to welcome the bride, but it is impossible to turn around. Since the Huainan army has attacked Hongzhou, wouldn't it be a death when he goes back?"

"My lord's military strength is just right to help the Zhennan Army." The fourth master said wishfully.

Dong Ying said: "I am only responsible for the wedding and dare not act without authorization. Don't you know the terrible terror of war? Why not arrive in Changsha Prefecture and wait until the war is over and return."

The fourth master had to let Zhong Yuxiu face Dong Ying.

Zhong Yuxiu said directly: "Hongzhou was invaded, please ask Lord Dong to turn around and support."

Dong Ying did not dare to offend him toughly, and weighed it for a while and said, "Madam, my subordinates have received the military order and marched thousands of miles in eight days. Why should we hurry up and rush to welcome the bride?"

The listener's face changed drastically, and Zuo Xiaoqing blurted out: "The Sichuan Army knew that the Huainan Army invaded Hongzhou."

Dong Ying said: "I didn't know at the beginning, but now I know. I am eager to marching to welcome the bride and pick up the wife before the Huainan Army."

"Why didn't the Southern Sichuan Army know about Hongzhou?" Zhong Yuxiu said anxiously.

Dong Ying explained: "It is useless to inform the people. The Southern Sichuan Army is too busy to take care of themselves. It is fighting with Xuanwu Army and Dachang Heguo. It cannot support tens of thousands of troops. Once the leaders are informed, the Zhennan Army will not allow his wife and Zuo to leave Hongzhou."

Zhong Yuxiu said anxiously: "What you said is wrong. My father and brother will not stop me from getting married."

Dong Ying said: "Please don't be wishful thinking. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, the Zhennan Army will never let the wife and Zuo leave."

"What do you mean, the Zhennan Army cannot defend Hongzhou?" Zuo Xiaoqing asked anxiously.

"I dare not make arbitrary decisions. I ask my wife to understand one thing. If I get married, I will be the wife of Fufeng Hou. If Hongzhou cannot be defended and the wife is captured by the Huainan army, she may not be the wife of Fufeng Hou." Dong Ying mentioned.

Zhong Yuxiu was speechless and looked at the Fourth Master in a daze.

The fourth master frowned and said nothing.

Dong Ying said again: "What the wife should do most now is to arrive in Changsha Prefecture and confirm her status. I will set off now."

Zhong Yuxiu's third daughter looked at the fourth master.

The fourth master said helplessly: "What Mr. Dong said is reasonable, and we will not affect the war when we go back."

.....

In Hongzhou City, 50,000 Huainan troops did not wait for the arrival of the rear army. Li Shenfu ordered the siege, and the Huainan troops, who were fearless in death, launched a siege battle.

Zhennan's army was of equal number, and the defenders had the advantage, and they were covered with resistance from the city.

The city walls were killed by both sides. The Zhennan Army, which had a lot of people on the city, was repeatedly beaten to the city and was defended by thrilling groups. The Zhennan Army's combat effectiveness was obviously not as good as that of the Huainan Army.

On the second day, Li Shenfu issued a war incentive and allowed a large plunder for three days after the trap.

The morale of the Huainan army was greatly boosted, and they attacked the city with red eyes. Entering the city can force the wealth of wealth and rape the women of the big family.

Half a day, blood and energy surged, and corpses were piled up on the city and below.

At noon, there was a sudden shout of killing in the city. The Zhennan Army, who was guarding the city, was attacked by internal responders. The army was suddenly in a panic. In fact, there were only hundreds of rebels in the city.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The Huainan army took the opportunity to tear open the big hole at the city wall, causing more Huainan soldiers to climb to the city wall.

The Zhennan Army had many people without any advantage, and many were killed and injured. Many Zhennan Army were afraid of fleeing.

The city was broken, and 40,000 Huainan troops rushed into Hongzhou City, robbed and raped like evil wolves.

The miserable scenes in Hongzhou City can be seen everywhere, with a large number of Zhennan troops surrendering and a few fleeing.

......

When the shouts of killing in the city started, Wei Fufeng allowed ten personal soldiers to go out. He took Zhang Yun to the hall of the front house and saw many people entering the cave.

Wei Fufeng and the others also followed into the cave, and there was a spacious basement under the hall.

The old manager pulled Wei Fufeng and saw the head of the Zuo Mansion, an old man in his fifties.

The head of the Zuo Mansion sat calmly on the chair. Wei Fufeng greeted him and did not want to be asked: "Hao Fufeng knew that the Huainan army was attacking?"

Wei Fufeng was stunned and replied: "Maybe, I was not ordered by Fufeng Hou."

The head of the Zuofu family nodded and said, "Go and have a rest."

Wei Fufeng turned around and left, found a place to sit down and wait. A day later, he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly.

Wei Fufeng heard the personal soldiers and left the basement with Zhang Yun.

What I saw was a mess, but fortunately, I didn't cause any fire. When I walked out of the hall, I saw a burly man holding a knife, who was one of my personal soldiers. I once questioned whether what Wei Fufeng said was true or not.

"Sir." The burly personal soldier rushed over and saw Zhang Yun blocking the entrance of the cave, saying, "So the Lord is hiding underground."

Wei Fufeng looked at the bloody color of his personal soldiers and asked, "What's outside?"

"The plunder for three days was very chaotic. I came down to find the adults to go to the prefecture yard." The personal soldiers replied.

"Don't tell the basement here." Wei Fufeng ordered.

The personal soldier glanced at the entrance of the cave and replied: "I won't say it."

Wei Fufeng walked out and asked, "All the others are in the prefectural yamen?"

"Everyone is here, four brothers died." The personal soldiers replied.

"The Grand Marshal is in the State Department?" Wei Fufeng asked.

"The Grand Marshal is outside the city. A new governor has arrived at the prefecture yard. The leader has received a seal and is waiting for the adults to come and negotiate." The personal soldiers replied.

Wei Fufeng was shocked. He was so stupid that he really went to grab the seal.
