Chapter 366 367 Sneak Attack

The next day, Li Yu went to the yard behind the mansion. It was a two-entry house, and there was a garden behind. The men lived in the first-entry yard, and Aunt Xue took the girls to live in the second-entry yard. , also raised chickens and ducks in the backyard, and all the corn was picked off and dried, packed in sacks, and piled up two houses.

Li Yu looked around and instructed Uncle Dashui, Uncle Cai, and Aunt Xue: "The world is not peaceful now, you should be careful about the door, and don't let anyone enter the door casually, especially those girls in the family must be careful, if something happens Just come to the government office and tell Ruyi or Jixiang them."

   Several people said respectfully: "It's Madam, you can rest assured that we will be careful."

Li Yu returned to the mansion. After noon, Zhou Jia asked Tie Zhu to bring back a few sets of mansion soldiers' clothes. The black coarse cloth looked solid, but when Li Yu saw the black clothes, he remembered that he hadn't brought back Chu Chu. The token that Sihai gave him was returned to him, and Li Yu also wanted to go to the street to have a look, so he said hello to Ruyi and took Gu Yu out the door.

  Gu Yu pointed to the Zuixianlou and said to Li Yu, "Madam, you see that the Zuixianlou has become deserted."

   "Yeah! After the rich merchants in the city fled, the most lively Zuixianlou has become like this."

   "Don't talk about Zuixianlou, I heard Tie Zhu and Mr. Qian muttering that even Liuhua Lane is no longer lively."

   "The two of them are going to Liuhua Lane together?" Li Yu looked at Gu Yu in surprise.

   "Oh!" Gu Yu looked at Li Yu with a blushing face, "Madam, where do you want to go? Mr. Qian and Tie Zhu will help the master in the resettlement site in Xicheng to resettle the refugees who escaped."

   "Haha," Li Yu smiled awkwardly, "I think too much."

  The two turned around a street and found that there were still many people on the street pushing and carrying, dragging their families and their families into the city. The pedestrians on the road were also in a hurry, and their faces no longer had the calmness and smile of the past.

  Li Yu arrived at Qian Yu's door, and happened to see Chu Sihai and Chu Feng hurried out from the inside. The two smiled when they saw Li Yu, Chu Sihai cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Mrs. Li, a rare guest, please come inside."

   Li Yu returned the salute with a smile, "Big shopkeeper, I don't think you will go in and sit down because you are very busy. I am here today to return the token to you."

   "Alright, thank you Madam for your help." Chu Sihai cupped his hands and smiled.

  Li Yu took out the token and handed it to Chu Sihai: "When I found General Shen, he had already caught the spy, and the token was useless. I just thought of returning it to you today."

  Chu Sihai respectfully took the token, and saluted Li Yuchang: "Thank you madam."

   "The shopkeeper is very kind." After Li Yu said goodbye, he took Gu Yu back to the government office, and asked Mrs. Liu and the others to make some dry food cakes, fried some oil tea noodles, and put them away for emergencies.

Zhou Jia came back from the former government office and said to Li Yu: "The army of Qi people is about to arrive, and the big shopkeeper sent secret guards to kill the prince of Daqi. I heard the big shopkeeper say that this Ouyang Xiong is Ouyang who followed Taizu. The descendants of the great general say that he is resourceful and knowledgeable."

   That's good, one soldier, one general, one brood, and the general's resourcefulness in Yunzhou will have a good chance of winning, but is it so easy for Chu Sihai to send someone to kill a prince of a country on other people's land? Li Yu asked curiously, "Are they going to Qi to kill the prince?"

Zhou Jia shook his head, "I didn't make it clear, so, this time Qi State sent troops to attack Dayong, and Yunzhou is the prince of Qi State, and the general Yang Huaiyi leads the troops. The prince under his knees is young and intelligent, and he is very favored by King Qi."

   "Kill the prince, doesn't King Qi just make his beloved son the prince?"

"Yu'er, you don't know that King Qi has three direct sons, the prince is the eldest son, and he has been a prince for almost 30 years. Xiang is the grandfather of the prince, even if the prince dies, it will not be the son of the imperial concubine."

   Li Yu understood that Chu Sihai and the others wanted to kill the crown prince, let the princes of Qi kill each other for the throne, and also make the right minister of Qi and the generals discord and make Qi domestic consumption.

   "The trick is a good one, can the secret guard succeed?"

   "I don't know either." Zhou Jia took Li Yu's hand, secretly worried that Chu Sihai would come to Li Yu for help.

On a barren mountain road in Tianjialing outside Tianjiaba, Yun Yi and Yanniang dressed as Qi Guomin's husbands. The two wore white linen clothes and trousers that were washed. They pushed and pulled a trolley full of grain. As they walked, the overseer soldier on the side whipped the slow-moving civilian man with a whip from time to time.

  Yun Yi and Yan Niang pushed the trolley, secretly recording the amount of grain, grass, and baggage. Yun Yi looked up at the canopy trolley in the distance, and his eyes darkened when he thought of his task.

   In a house not far from the city wall of Yunzhou, General Ouyang was listening to General Tian Shen's report, "General, all the people along the road in Xingfu Town have settled in the city..."

Suddenly a scout came in and reported loudly: "General, Qi soldiers are only a hundred miles away from Yunzhou, Yang Huaiyi is leading the soldiers, and the supervisor is Wu Jin, the Prince of Qi, and the tip says that the Qi army will probably be in Yangzhou. Set up camp around the village."

   Even the old prince came here to get military exploits. Did the Qi people really think that Yunzhou City was the meat on their chopping board and let them be slaughtered?

  Ouyang Xiong thought that Chu Sihai had already sent people to assassinate the Prince of Qi, so he would create chaos while they were setting up camp so that the secret guards could do it. If he could kill some Qi soldiers, it would be an unexpected gain.

Ouyang Xiong made up his mind and glanced at the generals who were sitting together, stood up and looked at General Yun Can and said, "General Yun Can, you lead two thousand cavalry to attack Qi soldiers, remember, don't go to war, disturbing Qi soldiers Return to the city immediately, and I will meet you at the gate of the city."

   "Yes." After General Yunshen responded, he ordered his troops and horses and galloped away.

   Zhou Jia in the government office also received the quarterly report of the government soldiers: "Sir, Qi soldiers are only a hundred miles away from us."

   Zhou Jia instructed: "You should send more people to patrol and pay more attention to those secluded alleys. I'm afraid there will be gangsters taking advantage of the fire to loot. Once you find some gangsters taking advantage of the fire to loot and admonish those who don't listen, immediately arrest them and do hard labor."

   "Yes, my lord." The government soldiers hurried away.

Yunshen will gallop with two thousand cavalry, and it took less than half an hour to reach Yangjia Village. The once lively Wangjia Village has become a barren land. All the houses have been burnt down by the officers and soldiers with strong walls and clear fields, and there are ruins everywhere. Yunshen will wait quietly in a small burned wood outside Yangjia Village with the people and horses.

After a while, I heard the vibrating sound of countless iron hooves hitting the ground in the distance. After a while, a team of cavalrymen who were exploring the road came galloping fast. Everyone waited quietly for them to enter the village. He waved his arm and drew a circle, all the cavalry were in full formation. Seeing that the cavalry was getting closer and closer, Yunshen would lead the cavalry to outflank him, and the soldiers held up their crossbows. When they left, all the Qi soldiers on horseback fell from their horses.
