Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 481 Chapter 492: The military newspaper was robbed
Seeing that the enemy commander was injured and retreated, all the Tang troops on the top of the city cheered and cheered, some even wept with joy. This battle was really tragic. Although they killed many enemies, they also suffered heavy losses. Three thousand young recruits Zhuang has already climbed the city wall, but there are only 8000 people left on the city wall. That is to say, they lost 5000 people in this battle, and nearly half of the remaining people were injured. Siege, they really don't know if they can hold it.

After counting the battle damage, Li Hao started to clean the city. Li Hao listened to the report of the generals' battle damage all the way, while walking down the city wall. After listening to the report, Li Hao turned to face the group of generals, and said, "Send my military order, order Sun Bowang Another [-] young adults will be recruited to practice bows and arrows first, and then knives and guns. Within ten days, they must be able to go to the battlefield. In addition, more houses will be demolished in the northern part of the city, and all the people in the northern part of the city will be transferred to the west of the city. The refuge tents are placed in a unified way. The northern area is too dangerous and unsuitable for people to live in. After the war, the king will ask the court to compensate them..."

After Li Hao issued a series of orders, all the generals went to work. Li Hao took Situ Feng back to the Governor's Mansion. As soon as he entered the front yard, he saw Ye Mengqiu walking out. Li Hao hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "You want to go out?"

Ye Mengqiu nodded and said: "The army is besieging the city. As a martial arts practitioner, how can I just sit in the city every day and do nothing, wasting food..."

"The enemy has already withdrawn." Li Hao said calmly, "I'm not asking you to do nothing, but waiting for you to recover from your injuries."

"My injury has healed!" Ye Mengqiu stretched his arms and jumped a few times, proving to Li Hao that he had recovered.

Li Hao nodded, and said: "It's been a month, it's about the same time, I happen to have a task for you and Situ Feng."

"Say it!" Ye Mengqiu became excited when he heard that there was a mission.

Li Haodao: "It has been more than a month since my urgent military report was sent out. Even if the reinforcements have not arrived, there should be a letter from the court, but there is no news so far. I guess, will my military report be Something went wrong, I plan to ask you to take my badge and letter, go to Luoyang to find a person, let him bring someone to rescue, this person is named Jin Li."

Ye Mengqiu hurriedly asked: "How can I find him in Luoyang?"

Li Haodao: "There is a restaurant in Luoyang called Taibailou. I sent someone to open it there. After you enter Taibailou, just tell the shopkeeper: Shopkeeper, I want to sell you some rice. How much do you charge per catty? Shopkeeper I will answer you: "One penny and ten catties, do you like to sell it? Ask again, how much is a catty of corn?" The shopkeeper will ask, are you here to eat or sell rice, and you answer, I am If you come to eat, I also need a private room, and then the shopkeeper will take you to the secret private room to talk to you, and you can ask him where Jin Li is, and tell him that I sent you there. If he doesn’t believe me, show me Your badge will do.”

Ye Mengqiu was quite surprised when he heard the words. He didn't expect Li Hao to open a restaurant and make such a complicated connection code. It doesn't look like a serious business. Although he is curious, he has already worked for Li Hao now, and he is not asking about this right now. Then, he nodded and said, "Okay, I will remember."

At this time, Situ Feng asked: "Master, what about me, didn't you say you have a task for me?"

Li Haodao: "Your task is to take my military newspaper to Chang'an and send it to Chang'an again. If you can, please help me find out why the imperial court hasn't sent anyone a letter. Is my military newspaper missing?" Send it to Chang'an, you take the military report and go directly to Lu Guogong or British Duke, and ask them to submit the general report."

"Yes, master!" Situ Feng nodded excitedly when he heard that the task could be done.

"Come with me to the study, and I'll write letters and military newspapers right away." Li Hao ran straight to the study as he spoke.

Li Hao wrote the appeal letter and the military report in the study. Situ Feng took the military report first and left in a hurry. Then, Li Hao handed Situ Feng his waist badge and the letter, saying: "You ride my lion horse , Luoyang is not close, you must arrive as soon as possible, if Jin Li is no longer in Luoyang, you can find a man named Feiying, these two are my confidantes, one of them must be in Luoyang."

In order to transport his tens of thousands of private troops to Liuqiu, Li Hao asked Jin Li and Feiying to break up the private troops and disguise them as paste rangers to go to Luoyang. Lu Yun would send a boat to pick them up. , can avoid the eyes and ears of the government, but it is impossible for Liuqiu to send too many ships over, that would be too noticeable, and tens of thousands of troops must be transported back and forth many times, roughly estimated, it will take at least a year, Therefore, Li Hao was sure that one of Feiying and Jinli must still be in Luoyang.

In fact, it is a bit risky to let his own private army come to help, but Li Hao has nothing to do now, he can't count on the court, so he can just sit and wait for his death.

After careful explanation, Li Hao sent Ye Mengqiu to leave. Ye Mengqiu took Li Hao's letter and waist badge, went to the courtyard to lead the lion horse, and hurried out, leaving the city from the south gate of Youzhou, because of Li Hao's waist badge , no one dared to stop him, as soon as he left the city gate, Ye Mengqiu rode his horse and galloped wildly. How could a thousand-mile horse be comparable to ordinary horses, and dust rose all the way on the official road.

After Ye Mengqiu was sent away, Li Hao wrote another letter for help, sent someone to Yizhou, and ordered the governor of Yizhou to summon soldiers and horses to Youzhou for help in the capacity of Hebei Dao dethronement envoy.After all, Luoyang is too far away, and Li Hao didn't know if he could wait for Jin Li and the others to arrive, so he had to prepare with both hands, and asked Yizhou for help. Ask the imperial court for instructions, and at the same time send scouts to Youzhou to check whether the situation is true, and then Gai Suwen came.

Li Hao believed that the governor of Yizhou would send troops to help after he got the true news, but he didn't hold out much hope. It is very important to say that there are only more than 2000 soldiers in Youzhou who can be called authentic soldiers.

In the evening, another messenger left Youzhou City to ask Yizhou for help.

Situ Feng rode his horse and galloped towards Chang'an all the way. After three days of driving, he finally arrived in Xingzhou. Ye Mengqiu, who set off behind him, was almost at Luoyang. .

Situ Feng rested overnight in Xingzhou, and the next morning, as soon as the city gate opened, he left the city and continued on his way. After another four days, he arrived in Huazhou, only two hundred miles away from Chang'an.

When passing by Fenghua Valley, it was already late, this place belongs to the wilderness, there is not even a place to rest, but Situ Feng didn't care, he was used to eating and sleeping in the open during the journey, and happened to see the hill next to Wuyanggang. There was a gazebo, so he went up the mountain path to rest in the gazebo.

It is now late April, and the nighttime weather is slightly cold, but not bone-chilling. Situ Feng is young and strong, and he is also a martial arts practitioner, so he is naturally not afraid. He just sleeps on the long stone bench in the gazebo, with his horse tied to the gazebo on the pillar.

In the middle of the night, Situ Feng suddenly felt something was wrong, and sat up in shock. After sitting up, his whole body was shaken, and he instinctively pulled out the Tang knife, and snapped: "Who are you?"

I saw a man in a black hat sitting in front of the table at the moment. Taking a closer look with the help of the faint moonlight, it seemed to be a woman, wearing a big hat and a black gauze skirt. What shocked Situ Feng was that this woman could quietly He walked into the gazebo quietly, and sat down less than five feet away from him. You know, with his current martial arts, even if he fell asleep, not many people could easily get close to him, but he didn't notice it at all. this woman.

"Put away your knife, or you will regret it." The woman in black said lightly, her voice was very pleasant, and there was no emotion in her tone.

Situ Feng couldn't feel any hostility from her, so he slowly put away the knife and asked, "Why did you come here in the middle of the night?"

"Wait." The woman in black spoke concisely.

Situ Feng felt a little uneasy. He felt that this woman had a very dangerous aura. The people who could make him feel this way were all top-notch experts without exception. He had a heavy responsibility and didn't dare to cause trouble. His own knife, sit aside, don't even think about sleeping, just suffer like this, it's his bad luck.

The two of them just sat in the gazebo like this, neither of them spoke, they didn't even move, like two sculptures, gradually, the eastern sky was flooded with light, and Situ Feng turned his head to look at the black Clothed woman, she was still doing the same movements. With the help of a little light from the sky, he finally saw the delicate face of the woman under the bamboo hat. She was as white as snow, and her eyes were as bright as the moon. She was born extremely beautiful, like a fairy Chang'e, but her eyes Among them, there is a faint sense of endless sadness.

Situ Feng was about to set off, and there were still two hundred miles to go. He decided to rush to Chang'an today. After he got up, out of politeness, he greeted the woman in front of him and said, "I'm leaving, the person you're waiting for , doesn't seem to come."

The woman said lightly: "I know he won't come." When she spoke, the sadness in her eyes became stronger.

Situ Feng frowned and asked puzzledly: "Since you know he won't come, why wait?"

"Today...April 23." The woman in black said something without thinking, and there was no more to say.

Situ Feng scratched his head, feeling that the woman was a bit crazy, but he didn't have time to talk about it, so he was about to lead the horse, when suddenly, there was a rushing sound of horseshoes coming down the mountain.

Then I saw a group of people in black riding their horses passing by down the mountain. When they arrived at Wuyanggang, they all reined in their horses and stopped. Such a hurry, and all of them are dressed in black, acting suspiciously, what is the origin?"

At this moment, a man in black said loudly: "Brother, why did you stop? The head of the family explained that the situation in Youzhou is extremely complicated. The head of the house has no choice whether to fight against the outside or settle down first. You must report to the eldest grandson." decide."

Situ Feng's hearing was excellent, and when he heard the word Youzhou, his heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly withdrew his hand that was about to lead the horse, and walked down the trail quietly, trying to get closer to them and hear what he said clearly.

"What's the hurry." The leading man in black with a goatee said coldly, "The Patriarch robbed the military newspapers of Youzhou and Yizhou, and stayed for more than a month before sending us to Chang'an to ask Mr. Changsun for instructions. It’s delayed, and I still care about it for a few days.”
