Yu Chihu didn't sleep, he was still looking south on the city wall, although a battle of annihilation broke out fifteen miles away, he couldn't see or hear, the distance was too far, and it was night, Yu Chihu didn't know anything.

He was not worried that Yu Chiqing would be defeated by Zeng Jinghai, after all, Yu Chiqing brought twice as many troops as the enemy, and in any case, Zeng Jinghai's army was not an opponent.

Wei Chihu was worried that his brother would leave with a wave of anger, would he take the opportunity to set troops to loot Panyu County, Panyu County has a large number of Western maritime merchants and has accumulated a lot of wealth, Yu Chiqing has said more than once that the wealth of these people should be confiscated and the soldiers who have followed them for many years should be given a little benefit.

Now that I think about it, Yu Chiqing went with 5,000 troops who had followed the Wei Chi family for many years, and I am afraid that the brothers have been planning for a long time, that is, to take the opportunity to loot Panyu City.

Yu Chihu was very annoyed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, if he didn't let his brother vent, I was afraid that sooner or later he would cause other big things, but it really didn't work, just sacrifice these people and maritime merchants!

"General, look!"

A soldier pointed to the south and shouted: "There is a fire over there, it seems to be in Panyu County!" ”

Yu Chihu also saw it, and the fire was blazing in the distance, and the direction was Panyu County.

"Damn bastard thing!"

Yu Chihu gritted his teeth in anger, needless to say, Yu Chiqing began to plunder the city.

Not long after, a group of soldiers appeared under the city, led by a general named Li Jinman, and Wei Chihu knew him.

"What's wrong?" Yu Chihu asked at the head of the city.

"The second general plundered Panyu County, burned and killed adultery everywhere, General Huang couldn't stop it, and I implore the general to stop it!"

"What about Zeng Jinghai's army?" Yu Chihu asked a little strangely.

"They came to rob the ship, and they grabbed more than a dozen thousand-stone warships in Jinan Bay and left, but the second general didn't catch up, so he vented his anger in the county, saying that he would kill all the cannibals and Persians."

It turned out that Zeng Jinghai came to grab the boat, saying that he came here for some reason to do something?

But thinking of his brother's reckless behavior, Wei Chihu had a headache, if he just grabbed a few people and merchants, that is, he went, but the arson was all over the city to rape and burn him, which was absolutely not allowed.

He called his own military lieutenant and handed him his gold medal, "You take a team of brothers to Panyu County, let the second general stop immediately, if he doesn't listen, you can directly take away his military power and tie him back to me!" ”

"Obey!"

The lieutenant took the gold medal and ran down to the city to transfer the troops, at this time, the Lang general Li Jinman shouted: "General, there are many brothers under my command who have been injured by the second general, and they are bleeding nonstop, can you let us go into the city to heal the brothers?" ”

Yu Chihu did not doubt it, and immediately ordered: "Open the city gate and let them enter the city to heal!" ”

The south gate of the city slowly opened, the drawbridge also creaked and lowered, and before the pro-soldier captain came out, Li Jinman's men rushed towards the city.

Wei Chihu suddenly felt that something was wrong, there were too many soldiers, and he only saw one or two hundred people in the darkness just now, how could he rush in but there were two or three thousand people?

"Stop!" Yu Chihu shouted.

But no one listened to him, and a large number of soldiers continued to pour in, at least five or six thousand, and there were many generals on horseback in the dark.

"Oh no, I've been tricked!"

Yu Chihu shouted, "Close the city gate quickly!" ”

But it was too late, and the shouts of killing in the city suddenly started, and a soldier rushed to say: "It's the enemy, it's coming to the city, the brothers can't resist it, the general is leaving!" ”

Yu Chihu turned around and ran to the north of the city, but only ran a dozen steps, and hundreds of soldiers killed the city, blocking his front, Yu Chihu panicked in his heart, and turned around and ran south, but the south also killed thousands of people, blocking his way.

Wei Chihu was cornered for a while, and at this time, dozens of soldiers instantly killed him and resisted him with spears, and the leader was Li Jinman.

"Li Jinman, I treat you well, why do you want to rebel?" Wei Chihu's eyes erupted with fire, and he stared at Li Jinman fiercely.

Li Jinman shook his head, "Yu Chihu, haven't you seen it yet?" This is the arrival of the imperial army, I am Tang Chen, and I am naturally loyal to the imperial court. ”

"Ahh

Hearing that it was the imperial army, Wei Chihu was stunned all of a sudden.

More than a dozen soldiers rushed up, pressed Wei Chihu to him, and tied him firmly.

"Li Jinman, where is my brother?" Yu Chihu was pressed to the ground and shouted.

"He was surrounded by an army of 30,000 imperial courts, and he was already killed."

Yu Chihu closed his eyes in pain, he had calculated everything, but he didn't count the imperial army, it can be said that he was born at the wrong time, and the Wei Chi family died in the sky!

...........

As the day dawned, Huang Jixiang was also taken to Nanhai County by a prisoner car, and another captured general led 5,000 soldiers to pretend to be reinforcements and deceive the city gate, and the soldiers rushed in to arrest Huang Jixiang.

Some readers may wonder that it is only twenty miles apart, and it is possible to use pigeon letters to communicate with each other, wouldn't it be faster?

Because the incident happened at night, the pigeons were night blind and could not fly, so it caused two times of poor information, and the Jin army used this conveniently, first besieged the city to send reinforcements, and then deceived the city at both ends, not afraid that they would not be fooled.

The battle in Nanhai County has ended, nearly 6,000 soldiers have all surrendered, Wei Chihu and more than a dozen other generals have been captured, and Li Jun, who has only been in office for less than half a month, has also become a prisoner.

Kang Bao then ordered the general Zhao Wen, under the leadership of the general Li Jinman, to lead 3,000 soldiers to Huaiji County to arrest the Wei Chi family.

Li Yang also rushed to Nanhai County, and saw the head of his brother Li Yu, which had been made into a toilet by Yu Chiqing, he cried loudly, drew his sword and cut off Yu Chiqing's head, and wanted to kill Yu Chihu, but was stopped by Kang Bao.

"Yu Chihu really deserves to die, but he is not in a hurry at this time, after his whole family is relieved, he will be beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market, so as not to leave any trouble."

Li Yang gritted his teeth and said: "I heard that Yu Chiqing has two sons, please hand over his two sons to me, I will kill them with my own hands!" ”

Seeing that his mind had been overwhelmed by hatred, Kang Bao stopped persuading him, nodded and said, "Yes, but don't torture them, just kill them!" ”

"Thank you, General!"

"Then your brother Li Jun, what are you going to do?"

Li Yang was silent for a moment and said: "He colluded with traitors to kill his brother and seize the throne, he is no longer my brother, I don't care about him, general, please deal with it according to the advice of His Royal Highness King Jin!" ”

Kang Bao said lightly: "King Jin's opinion is to give him a cup of poisonous wine. ”

"I agree!"

Li Yang was originally a little unbearable in his heart, but when he thought of him colluding with Wei Chihu and killing his own brother, the family affection in Li Yang's heart was gone, and only hatred was left in his heart.

Kang Bao immediately arranged for someone to take care of Li Yang, and he went to the palace warehouse to check the situation of money and grain.

There are three official warehouses in Nanhai County, one is outside the city, two are in the city, the warehouse outside the city is to store bulk goods such as timber, salt, cotton, etc., and the two warehouses in the city, one is the grain depot, located in the north of the city, there are more than 800,000 stones of grain in it, and the other is the money bank, which has all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry and copper coins in the money storehouse, worth more than 5 million yuan.

These wealth are the accumulation of commercial taxes and taxes over the years, Li Xi has never been transported to the Southern Tang Dynasty, but although there is a lot of wealth and food, but after all, this is Lingnan, and wealth is only accumulated and does not cost much.

Kang Bao needed to arrange for the Liu family's return fleet to transport the grain and wealth accumulated in Lingnan back to Hekou Port.

In the afternoon, Kang Baolai accompanied by Zeng Jinghai came to Jinan Bay, Jinan Bay is located in the east of Panyu County, is a bay recessed into the land, the area is 1,200 hectares, the entrance is only 100 zhang wide, here is the place where the official ship is sealed, it is jokingly called the ship tomb by the people of Nanhai County, there are more than 800 official ships of all kinds, including more than 500 warships, more than 300 sea ships, this is the afterglow of the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty.

This was also an important reason why Guo Song was eager to seize Lingnan, and there were a large number of ships in Guangzhou, and the acquisition of these ships would at least shorten the shipbuilding time of the imperial court by twenty years.

There are about 300 warships with more than 1,000 stones in Guangzhou, most of them are in Nanhai County, there are 200 warships of 2,000 stones and 3,000 stones in Jiwan, and there are 50 ships in Xinhui and Bao'an.

Zeng Jinghai, the general of the naval army who accompanied Kangbao, introduced: "In the past, the official also carried out overseas trade, in the thirteenth year of the Great Calendar, an official fleet composed of 200 sea ships encountered a storm in the South Seas, all the ships sank, and more than 10,000 crew members and merchants died. ”

"Didn't the City Ship Division be revoked later?" Kang Bao asked.

"The city ship division has been abolished, but the king of Zhao is not very keen on going to sea trade, and to restart these ships, it is not only necessary to spend a lot of money to rebuild them, but also to recruit tens of thousands of sailors, and the king of Zhao has never been able to make up his mind."

"How much will it cost to renovate?" Kang Bao asked.

Zeng Jinghai shook his head, "I don't know much about this, I have to ask the steward specifically!" ”

Kang Bao immediately ordered someone to find the steward of the Bay.
