A knife in love

Chapter 1544

Liu Sheng Zongyan sighed at this point, and then said: "The old man received the secret report, and he couldn't believe it at first. Because we have been hiding in Dongliao County for more than ten years. There are few people here, and the court is out of reach. The government is good, and the gentry are big. Anyway, most of them are under the control of my Liusheng clan. Those senior scholars have already retired, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have no influence outside the pass, and the major sects in the Jianghu rarely set foot here. How could they find out that we are hiding here? But later, I found out that there were mysterious people inside and outside the city of Dongliao County, and they seemed to be looking for someone. These people are not only armed with martial arts, but also extremely cunning. I sent people to inquire about the news, and they were like meat buns beating dogs. Back to..."

When Liu Sheng Zongyan said this, Murong Danyan sneered and said: "It's really weird! Only the killers of your Liu Sheng clan assassinate others. How could someone secretly get rid of your party members?"

Liu Sheng Zongyan said: "That's why things are so strange. The old man is confident that the children trained by himself will not be so stupid that they will fall into the enemy's hands silently. But the fact is true, and the old man can't help but wonder I believe it. Later, the eyeliner of the Liaoyang Mansion also sent back the news that for some unknown reason, the Shanhaiguan Commander-in-Chief sent 2000 troops to the Liaoyang Mansion quietly and was placed under the command of the Liaodong Commander-in-Chief. This Liaodong Commander-in-Chief was named Zhang Gui. The favorite student of Liu Kang, a scholar during the reign of Emperor Zhengde."

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled when Liu Shengzongyan mentioned the names of Zhang Gui and Liu Kang, and what he saw in the old shop of Gu's family in Yong'an City flashed before his eyes one by one.Thinking of Liu Kang telling several military officers to remind Zhang Gui to be careful outside the pass, not only to prevent Tartar soldiers from harassing Liaodong, but also to guard against Japanese pirates going north, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, could it be that the old thief Liu Shengzongyan is not He was lying to me, but he was really disheartened and wanted to return to Liaodong.I was just worried that Liu Kang, Yang Tinghe and others would not let him go, so they would not be able to make trouble in Dongliao County?

When he was thinking about it, he only heard Liu Sheng Zongyan say: "In the past, the old man was persecuted by the political opponents in Fusang. The enemy has killed us. There are quite a lot of things we have to take away. Counting and packing, as well as preparing vehicles, horses and boats, can be completed overnight. If the imperial court sends troops to encircle and suppress, the Liusheng family will be in danger of being overthrown. The old man thought over and over again, We have to prepare in advance. The officers and soldiers of the local guards in Dongliao County are not afraid. If the Liaodong General Army sends a large army to encircle and suppress, there are only two roads to take. The east road will take a detour of three or four hundred miles, and it will take several If the officers and soldiers want to attack Dongliao County by surprise, they will not choose this road. The South Road goes all the way south from Liaoyang Mansion, crosses Motianling, and they can go straight to Dongliao County. If the Liaodong General Soldier wants to attack, I will definitely choose this path. This is why the old man sent people to play tricks on Motianling, and sent people to spread rumors. He only said that Motianling is haunted by ghosts, and the temple of Zhongkui must be built to suppress the evil spirits. I think Li Shaoxia and Miss Murong know about the rest of the matter gone."

At this point, Liu Sheng Zongyan put the oil umbrella on the ground with his left hand, and said solemnly: "Compared with Fusang, Daming is like an eagle in the sky and a small reptile on the ground. To survive, sometimes you will fight desperately. Now the Liusheng clan is far from what it was in the past. If the officers and soldiers encircle and suppress them, they will only be able to exterminate the clan. For the lives of more than a thousand people in the clan, I have to fight with trapped beasts. Li Shaoxia, although you are young, your knowledge is extraordinary, what do you think is wrong with this old man?"

Li Qiufeng listened to Liu Sheng Zongyan's eloquent talk, and felt a little confused for a moment, thinking that if it was true what Liu Sheng Zongyan said, he would take Liu Sheng's family and leave Daming, which would be the best for the Ming court and the people matter.Moreover, when Liu Sheng Zongyan said "No matter how small a reptile is, in order to survive, it will sometimes fight desperately", Li Qiufeng actually felt pity.He lived in a village in central Sichuan since he was a child, and was oppressed by the government. His parents worked hard every day, but it was still precarious. In the end, the village was destroyed. If his master didn't happen to pass by, Li Qiufeng might have become a ghost under the knife. .Since then, he has been following his master. He once heard the master say that everything in the world has a reason to exist in the world.Whether it is a fierce tiger or a poisonous insect, in order to survive, it is inevitable to slaughter the weak.Just now Liu Shengzongyan's words were extremely indignant, but Li Qiufeng was speechless to refute.

But although Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan didn't speak, Qi Jiu sneered and said: "You keep saying you want to protect yourself, but why did you invite the Japanese pirates from the southeast coast to go north to Liaodong? Don't you want to seize Liaodong first, and then attack the pass? "

Liu Sheng Zongyan took a look at Qi Jiu and said proudly: "Boy, you look down on the Ming court too much. Although the old man is not a Han, after arriving in Ming Dynasty, he has read many books. He regarded the remnants of the Mongolian and Yuan soldiers as a serious problem, and refused to ignore the great enemy on the northern grassland for a moment. In particular, Xu Da commanded the army to march north and was defeated by Wang Baobao. Emperor Taizu thought that the defeat should not be underestimated and retreated to Mobei He placed heavy troops on the northern border, commanded by princes, and assisted by famous generals. He absolutely did not allow the Mongolian Yuan to revive and try to go south. After Emperor Yongle succeeded to the throne, he personally conquered Mobei many times, sweeping holes in Liting, Chased and suppressed the Mongolian soldiers, and finally died on the way to the expedition. It can be said that until Emperor Yingzong launched the Tumu Fortress Change, the Ming Dynasty heavily stationed in the north, and the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry only harassed the border. How dare they go south? After the Tumu Fortress Change , Daming lost the vigor of the Northern Expedition, but it paid more and more attention to the defense of the north. From Hetao in the west to Liaodong in the east, there are strong generals and strong soldiers stationed there. My Liusheng clan has only 3000 to [-] people, most of them are old and weak women and children, capable of fighting There are only a few hundred. The old man is worried that the officers and soldiers will go south and attack Dongliao County, so he spent tens of thousands of taels of silver and invited the soldiers and horses of the Lord Gao of Wufeng Island in the Southeast China Sea to help them as guards. Even if these hundreds of reinforcements are included Under the flag of the Liusheng clan, with more than a thousand Fusang people, is it possible to break through the Liaoyang mansion, then march into Shanhaiguan, and attack all the way to Beijing?!"

Qi Jiu didn't expect Liu Sheng Zongyan to say such a thing. Although he felt that Liu Sheng Zongyan was making unreasonable words, he couldn't refute for a while, so anxious that he scratched his head and couldn't pierce Liu Sheng Zongyan's words lie.Liu Sheng Zongyan glanced at Qi Jiu, ignored him, turned to Li Qiufeng and said, "This old man asked Master Gao to send someone to help. There is another reason. The old man has received a secret report that the Ming court has already written Fusang Kingdom The shogunate wants him to send troops to help us slaughter the Yagyu clan. If the old man wants to return to Fusang safely, the current manpower alone is far from enough, and he must ask for reinforcements to keep the whole clan safe. These hundreds of reinforcements came to Liaodong , definitely not to deal with Daming, just don't worry about Li Shaoxia."
