Chaos in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 155
Fan Wen led his army to station outside the city, apparently planning to besiege Longbian City.

Guan Ziyang sneered in his heart, not to mention that the food in Longbian City was enough for three or four months, even if Fan Wen could really surround Longbian City for two months, wouldn't the imperial court send troops to support it?

Even if the imperial court does not send troops to support them, they will have no choice but to flee in desperation when the Jingkou refugee army arrives half a year later.

Therefore, Fan Wen was not in a hurry to attack the city, so Guan Ziyang was naturally not in a hurry.

Moreover, he has just broken through the first-rank realm, and now he has opinions and more important things to do.

He still has the unresolved poison of the Three Corpse Brain Pill in his body!

Ge Hong said that as long as he becomes a semi-sage, there is a way to detoxify him.

Now that Long Bian is fine, he has decided to practice.

……

Gathered his subordinates and held the first plenary meeting of the Nanfu Army.

Xia Houcheng, Li Bin, Qin Kuan, Luo Ding, and Teng Hui, the son of Teng Yu who surrendered not long ago.

Guan Ziyang explained that he was going to leave Jiaozhou for a while, but everyone didn't care.

In the current situation, let alone Guan Ziyang's absence, as long as the city gates are closed tightly.

With a [-]-[-] force against Fan Wen who is attacking the city, it is no problem for a three-year-old to become a general.

The problem now is the management of the Nanfu army.

The Nanfu Army now has one army and eight battalions, and Guan Ziyang has been reorganized into five battalions.A battalion of 1000 people.

It is divided into front, back, left, and middle parts, with the guards in the middle and Sima in the front, back, left, and right.

One has 250 people, with Sima, one with two songs, with school lieutenant, and one with 120 five people, with military marquis.

There are two villages in one song, and the head of the village is set up.

One village and two teams, with a team rate of 30 people in one team.

The first team consists of Wushi, who is Wu Shichang. Wu Shichang is not an officer, but a veteran soldier.

These are all set by Guan Ziyang based on the general memory of later generations.

It is similar to Liu Yu's Beifu Army.

Guan Ziyang promoted the soldiers who performed well in this battle and performed well in the usual drills as appropriate.

Xia Houcheng, Li Bin, Qin Kuan, Luo Ding, and Teng Hui were Sima of the Fifth Battalion of the Front, Front, Left, Left, and Middle Schools respectively.

Feng Xie Daoyun was named General Zhenjun.

During Guan Ziyang's absence, the Nanfu Army was led by Xie Daoyun.

Xie Daoyun immediately smiled when he heard the reward.

"For you are sensible, you didn't lie to me..." Xie Daoyun pursed her lips, thinking happily.

"I'll be back within three months at the most, please give me a seat during the period, just stick to Longbian City!"

"Yes! The last general takes orders!"

After the Nanfu army made proper arrangements, Guan Ziyang embarked on the journey.

The destination this time is still Luofu Mountain.

"I hope the old man can give me a way to quickly improve my realm..."

One month later, he followed Ge Hong's instructions.

Guan Ziyang set foot on the road to the Western Regions.

The vast Gobi, the sky is full of yellow sand, and the sound of camel bells.The Spring Breeze Inn is hidden in this desolate and arid desert.

This inn is named Spring Breeze Inn. Those merchants who trek thousands of miles from the gentle water town of Jiangzuo come to this inn, and they all miss the luxuriance of their hometown.

Among the seven or eight tables in the lobby of the inn, a beautiful orchid was twisting her graceful figure, whispering a voice that seemed to come from outside.

Since the fall of Hou Zhao a few years ago, this kind of blond beauty with special looks has become a valuable commodity.

Just after singing and dancing, a young man in the hall suddenly stood up, opened and closed a folding fan in his hand, and read aloud: "Curly hair and beard, green eyes, tall buildings blowing horizontal bamboos quietly at night. The sound seems to come to the sky, and the beauty under the moon looks at her hometown and cries. ".

This poem praises Orchid's singing and dancing, but it also expresses the sadness of being a slave in the American country. After reading the poem, he picked up the wine glass at the table and drank it down.

This person's name is Gu Bufan, and he is the number one bodyguard bureau in the Jin Kingdom, the eldest son of the Gu family bodyguard bureau. The Gu family bodyguard bureau has sub-helms all over the Shenzhou country and is very powerful.

As long as you see the word Gu hanging on the caravan in the rivers and lakes, you will run away, because those who tried to attack the escorts of the Gu family's escort agency have already used their lives to pay back.

This eldest son, Gu Bufan, this year, this is his first escort trip as the head of the Gu Family Security Bureau, escorting merchants from Lanhai County in Jin State to send cloth to the north,

They also escorted the merchants to transport the jade purchased locally back to Lanhai County.

This trip of escorts traveling thousands of miles is already a big business. The experienced old escorts in the escort agency should have been allowed to travel the escorts. Take over the post of escort.

Sure enough, the young master who grew up in the splendid clothes and fine food in the Shenzhou Kingdom did not know that the Xihu Great Gobi was terrible. A sandstorm separated him from the large bodyguard team, and he and five other members of the bodyguard team came to this Spring Breeze House. Inn.

There is a deputy head of the bodyguard team named Lin Beifeng, he is in his 40s, he was an old bodyguard head of the Lanhai sub-rudder of the Gu Family Escort Bureau. He sent his most capable escort to be the deputy of the young master.

It is also thanks to this deputy who used to go there often when Xihu County was still in Xihu Country. He has experienced several sandstorms and has rich experience, so this young master did not die in the desert.

Lin Beifeng has rich experience in Jianghu. This Spring Breeze Inn is not on the main road, so he has been secretly embanking it, but he was afraid that something would happen, and a sense of tiredness suddenly came to him inexplicably.

Lin Beifeng secretly said: "I'm afraid I've been poisoned, and I've been careful, but I still got hurt."

He thought again: "In case I let the young master lose his life in this black shop, how can I have the face to go back, now that the bodyguard team is scattered, outnumbered and poisoned first, I can only hurry to find it before the enemy does not make a move. Large teams move rescue soldiers."

My thoughts turned sharply and I said to Gu Bufan: "Young master, I will go out and check our goods to see if there are any lost."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the boss who was making calculations in front of the counter, and the two waiter waiters who were filling the big wine tank. Seeing that they didn't follow, they went out.

He took out a pen and paper from among the goods and wrote: My young master is worth a thousand pieces of gold, so he will save his life, and a thousand taels of gold will be given to your brother.After writing, paste it on the camel, and quickly get on the horse and gallop away.

Later, Xihu County was established, and Xihu jade and dancing orchids, which are loved by the people of the Central Plains, began to be continuously shipped to the countries of the Central Plains.

A Luo's father, because he can speak both Chinese and Hu, and has been in Xihu for many years, became a full-time guide, serving as a guide and translator for businessmen from China.

This time, the businessman was so generous that he thought he could buy his son a new dress for the New Year. Unexpectedly, he went astray in a sandstorm and entered a black shop by mistake, and lost his life just like that.

A Luo is Wen Datong's daughter. She travels between the two countries with her father as a guide. She grew up on the trade road since she was a child. From birth to the present, she has been traveling with her father on endless journeys most of the time.

Originally, I was eating with my father in the inn, but I fell asleep for some reason. When I woke up, I found that I was locked in a small iron cage and was enslaved by the innkeeper.

Guan Ziyang pretended to be arrested, just to see what kind of plan this inn had for poisoning the passing passengers.

Guan Ziyang, who was in Guan Ziyang's cage, saw a little girl who came in, about seven or eight years old, holding a plate of white buns in her hand.

The little girl came to the cage and looked at Guan Ziyang with teary eyes. The girl's appearance was quite similar to that Orchid who was singing and dancing in the lobby of the inn.

The little girl asked, "What's your name?"

Guan Ziyang replied: "Guan Ziyang".

The little girl asked again: "The boss asked me to give you something to eat."

Guan Ziyang replied again: "Thank you."

Guan Ziyang was indeed hungry. He took the bun, opened his mouth to eat it, and asked vaguely with the bun stuffed in his mouth, "Why are you crying? Did the adults outside beat you?" Seeing that she had a beautiful appearance and handsome features He asked again: "The one who was dancing outside just now was your mother, right? You really look like her, and you are so pretty!"

The little girl sobbed softly: "When I saw you, I thought of me back then. Back then, our family of three fled here. My father was killed by Boss Cai, and he even used my life to threaten my mother to help them harm people. Brother Guan Ziyang, I'm sorry! "

Guan Ziyang seemed to understand the meaning of his words, and he looked terrified: "You mean, the members of the Gu Family Escort Bureau who were traveling with me were all killed by bad guys?"

The little girl came to Guan Ziyang again and patted him on the shoulder, stared at Guan Ziyang with big eyes and said, "Well, only you and the one named Gu Bufan survived among you."

After speaking, he went out with an empty plate.

When Guan Ziyang heard the news of the death of the Gu family, all thoughts were lost, and he was still careless. Although their deaths were not worthy of sympathy, they still had something to do with him...

Several hours later, someone walked into the house, opened Guan Ziyang's cage, grabbed him by the back of the collar and lifted him out.

"Hahaha," the man laughed three times, his voice full of horror, and then said: "Little brat, come with me, our Boss Cai wants to see you."

Guan Ziyang knew that this person was the Xiao Er who served tea and wine in the inn that day.

Guan Ziyang didn't have the slightest fear in his heart, this little Er didn't even reach the ninth rank.

Following behind Xiao Er, it turned out that he was locked in the room on the second floor of the inn, followed to the back kitchen on the first floor, and saw Xiao Er lifted a blanket on the ground to reveal an iron ring, he pulled the iron ring, and one went down. The secret door opened.

Xiao Er turned his head and pushed Guan Ziyang's back, Guan Ziyang fell into the basement with an "ouch", and Xiao Er also climbed down a ladder.

A Luo behind her was also pushed back in.

Guan Ziyang was in good health, at least he weighed [-] to [-] to [-] jin. The innkeeper held him with one hand like he was holding a chicken. It was obvious that the innkeeper was a trainee.

The boss cast his sinister eyes on Guan Ziyang, Guan Ziyang pretended to tremble all over again, pretending to be very scared.

The boss said: "Little boy, do you know why I spared your life? We need a handyman here. If you work hard with me in the future, I will spare your life."

After finishing speaking, there were a few wild laughs, and then he said: "After all, you still have to work for me in the future! Let you see your relatives for the last time..."

A Luo followed the direction Boss Cai pointed, and saw her father's body. Sadness, fear, and anger rushed into her heart, and she almost fainted.

Boss Cai turned around and left, without looking back, he said, "Bury your father properly!"

With the help of the mistress, Ah Luo buried her father in the corner of the backyard of the inn. There are still several tombstones in the backyard. The mistress pointed to a tombstone and said, "I was buried here too four years ago." lost my family, hey!"

At night, Guan Ziyang, who had been crying all day, finally fell into a deep sleep.

A weak candle on the table in the middle of the room illuminated the room in a blur.

There was a person sitting in front of the table, it was the little girl who delivered the buns during the day, when the little girl saw Guan Ziyang woke up and approached him, Guan Ziyang instinctively leaned back, put his hands on his knees and dared not look at her.

The little girl said to Guan Ziyang in a very small voice: "I know your friend was killed by Boss Cai, and I feel very sad, but don't worry, I'm not a bad person. My mother has found a way for us to escape from here!"

Hearing this, Guan Ziyang thought of the tomb he had seen during the day, and felt that this little girl who was about the same age as him was just being coerced by Boss Cai, so she shouldn't be a bad person.
He raised his head and looked at her, and wanted to ask her something, but he couldn't say anything. Facing the huge blow of his father's death, he shed tears from his grief.

Seeing him crying, the little girl comforted him by telling her past experience.

After Guan Ziyang listened, remembering that the two were in the same illness, he gradually stopped crying, and asked in a low voice, "Why did Boss Cai force your mother to dance and sing in the inn?"

The little girl replied: "They say my mother is beautiful, as long as she sings and dances, the guests who come here to stay here will relax their vigilance, and Boss Cai can easily poison them.

They added a medicine to the food and drink, and rubbed a medicine on my mother's body. After the guests ate something, they would faint if they smelled the smell of my mother. "

Guan Ziyang said to himself: "No wonder Lin Escort tested the poison with silver needles at that time, let us eat it with peace of mind, the poison is not only in the wine and food."

After finishing speaking, Guan Ziyang suddenly remembered: "You just said that your mother thought of a way to escape for us?"

The little girl nodded and said: "Well, my mother said that everyone in the inn has become a bad person. Some people used to be good people. After a while, they also became bad people. Brother Guan Ziyang is a good person."

Guan Ziyang said: "Those guys in the store used to be poor people who had the same experience as us, but they did things for Boss Cai in order to survive, and they hurt people for a long time, and they turned bad!"

The little girl said to him again: "Boss Cai said that tomorrow I will let you learn how to wash clothes and cook fires with me. My mother told me quietly, let me take you to the stable and lead the horse and take me away. Can you ride a horse?"

Guan Ziyang replied: "I have been riding a horse since I was a child, of course I can."

The little girl said happily: "It's great that you can ride a horse. After we escape together tomorrow, we will ask the official to arrest Boss Cai and save my mother."

After finishing speaking, she stood up: "By the way, my surname is Li, and my name is A Luo. You will call me A Luo from now on. My mother also calls me that. The bad guys in the inn call me a bitch. I don't like this name.
Now I have to go. My mother was dragged to his room by Boss Cai. She will come back to sleep with me in the middle of the night. She should be back soon. My mother said that she will teach us how to escape tomorrow. You should go to bed too. , Tomorrow will have the spirit to escape. "

After speaking, he blew out the candles, left the house and closed the door.

The room suddenly fell into darkness. A Luo was immersed in the grief of losing his father, so there was no sleepiness.
However, thinking that Guan Ziyang would take her to escape tomorrow, a ray of light and warmth filled his heart, hoping that he could escape from this devil's den smoothly.
