Luo Xin's face also became gloomy, he knew that what Yu Dayou said was right, with Emperor Jiajing's temperament, he would definitely do this. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but this matter Luo Xin knew that Yu Dayou was behind the pot after all, and he couldn't bear it, so he said:

"General Yu, don't worry. I'll be sure to take care of it for you. ”

Yu Dayou's face showed gratitude, and then he remembered the mess he caused this time, his expression became gray again, and he took a deep breath and said:

"Thank you, sir."

After the words fell, he thought for a moment and said, "My lord, you should also be more careful. ”

"Huh? What does General Yu mean by this? ”

"My lord, after I am arrested and put in prison, there will be only one Qi Jiguang left in the southeast capable soldiers, so the deterrence of the Japanese will be greatly reduced. Now Wang Zhi and Xu Hai are at war, but it is impossible for them not to care about the situation on the Ming side, seeing that the Daming sea trade is so prosperous, Xu Hai and Wang Zhi may not stop making peace, and then join forces to attack Hangzhou. ”

Luo Xin frowned slightly and said, "Let's make peace?" ”

"Not bad!" Yu Dayou nodded and said: "The pirate's nature is originally greedy, and he can abandon all hatred in front of the word Li. What's more, there is no deep hatred between Xu Hai and Wang Zhi. The pirates who took away Xu Hai's ships at the beginning, Ye Ma and Xin Wulang's ships may not be Wang Zhi, and now Xu Hai is probably basically confirmed that it is not Wang Zhi. ”

"Confirm it's not Wang Zhi?" Luo was shocked.

"Hmm!" Yu Dayou nodded and said, "Judging from the information we have gotten, Xu Hai is now basically sure that the pirate who robbed his ship and his lair is not Wang Zhi. Because during the war between him and Wang Zhi, there has always been a mysterious pirate secretly attacking Wang Zhi's island. And Wang Zhi has always refused to admit that he attacked Xu Hai and Xin Goro's ships and robbed their lair. With Wang Zhi's strength and temperament, if this matter was really done by him, Wang Zhi would never deny it. At the beginning, Xu Hai attacked Wang Zhi regardless of his anger, and after such a long time, he must have thought it through. Now the two sides are just trying to save face and continue to fight, but the outcome is doomed, and the two families will definitely stop making peace. They couldn't keep fighting like this, weakening their own power, looking at the fat piece of the city's boss and ignoring it. So they will definitely attack Hangzhou. ”

"Won't it?" Luo Xin frowned slightly and said, "Didn't Wang Zhi always want to negotiate with Hu Butang and be recruited by the Ming Dynasty?" Could it be fake? ”

"Naturally!" Yu Dayou said: "But now the form has changed, the four big Kou on the sea, Wang Zhi, Xu Hai, Ye Ma and Xin Wulang. Ye Ma is already dead, and Xu Hai and Xin Wulang were completely crippled by the adults under the city of Hangzhou. Then they returned to the sea, and gathered scattered pirates to attack Wang Zhi, especially a mysterious pirate who constantly inflicted heavy losses on Wang Zhi, so at this time, whether it was Xu Hai, Wang Zhi, or Xin Wulang, their strength was greatly reduced. However, our Daming sailors are getting stronger and stronger, and in this case, Wang Zhi will feel that he has lost his advantage in the negotiations with Daming. Therefore, he will definitely unite Xu Hai and Xin Wulang to attack Da Ming again, and a heavy blow to Da Ming will show his strength and regain the advantage of negotiations. ”

Speaking of this, Yu Dayou looked at Luo Xin and said worriedly: "Now that Luo Qing is dead, I won't live long, how can Daming resist the alliance of Wang Zhi, Xu Hai and Xin Wulang?" I'm afraid that the people of the southeast will be ruined again, alas......"

Luo Xin's expression also became serious, and he secretly said in his heart: "I didn't expect Xu Hai and Wang Zhi to be alert, but Xu Hai has Wang Cuiqiao there, and my cousin should have gotten such news, and there will be no danger." Will they really join forces to attack Hangzhou? ”

"Anyway, I've already contacted my cousin through secret channels, so let's wait until I hear from my cousin."

Shaking his head, he put the matter down, looked at Yu Dayou and said, "General Yu, how are you going to quell the chaos?" ”

Yu Dayou said in a condensed voice: "I also just arrived, and after I came here, I saw that the four doors were closed, and I couldn't see the situation in the city at all under the night. ”

Luo Xin walked out of the big tent with Yu Dayou and looked towards Chun'an County. I only saw that under the night, Chun'an County was dark and swarthy, but from under the starlight, you could faintly see the figures on the city wall, and many people were standing on the city wall, looking at them. Yu Dayou said in a condensed voice:

"The situation is unknown at night, so I just ordered the entire county to be surrounded and siege tomorrow."

At this time, Qi Jiguang also came to Luo Xin's side, stared at the city wall, and said in surprise:

"So many people?"

Luo Xin moved: "General Yu, how many people ambushed you and snatched Zhang Daoyuan at the beginning?" ”

"There were about 2,000 people, and they appeared so suddenly, I ...... And without the slightest defense...... So they caught me off guard! ”

Luo Xin couldn't help but be silent, with Yu Dayou's strength, Zhang Daoyuan was snatched away by more than 2,000 people from more than 5,000 people, and it can only be said that Yu Dayou never thought that someone would rob the prisoner's car, and he didn't take Hu Zongxian's words to heart at all.

Luo Xin glanced at the row of people standing on the city wall again, frowned slightly, and said secretly in his heart:

"With only more than 2,000 people, you dare to occupy a county seat? Doesn't he know that as long as the officers and troops are encircled, he will be a dead end? Zhang Daoyuan doesn't look like a fool? Is it ......?"

Luo Xin was stunned: "The Red Turban Army not only has more than 2,000 people? Are they really starting to uncover it? ”

Thinking of this, Luo Xin's body was numb for a while, this Zhang Daoyuan is not a rogue, the descendants of the Zhang family may not have given up the idea of seizing the country from the old Zhu family, in the past two hundred years, I don't know what level of development. After thinking for a while, they walked forward, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang were stunned, and they also followed Luo Xin towards the city wall of Chun'an County. When he walked a stone's throw away, Luo Xin paused and shouted loudly towards the city wall:

"Zhang Daoyuan, Luo Xin is here, please come out and answer."

There was silence above the city walls, and the rows of Red Turban troops were motionless. Luo Xin's brows furrowed, and he stretched out his hand to the side and said:

"Arrows!"

Lu Daqing, who was behind him, immediately stepped forward and handed a pair of bows and arrows to Luo Xin, who took the bow and arrows and walked forward.

"Your Excellency!" Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang shouted at the same time.

Luo Xin did not stop and continued to walk forward. He was sure that at this distance, even if the other party suddenly shot a cold arrow, under his own preparation, he would dodge it. Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang's faces were bitter, so they also followed. Wan Daquan and the others immediately ran in front of the three people with their shields and erected their shields.

However, what was strange to them was that Luo Xin had already taken ten steps forward, and there was still not a trace of movement on the city wall, let alone a cold arrow. At this time, Luo Xin's heart had become uneasy, he paused, Luo bent his bow and arrows, and aimed at a figure above the city wall.

"Whoosh......"

An arrow shadow pierced through the night sky and landed on one of the Red Turbans on the city wall, but no screams were heard, and the Red Turbans remained motionless and upright.

At this moment, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang's faces changed. The expression on Luo Xin's face was gloomy like a dark cloud, and he said in a condensed voice:

"We were fooled."

At this time, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang also reacted, and said in a deep voice: "Those above are all straw people!" ”

Yu Dayou's face was gloomy at this time, and he said distractedly: "Zhang Daoyuan has already run away?" I've been waiting here for an hour, and they've long since disappeared? ”

Luo Xin sighed and said, "Let's go into the city." ”

"Slow!" Yu Dayou stopped Luo Xin and said, "What if it's Zhang Daoyuan's trick?" What if all his real people are hiding in the city, waiting for us to go in and make us dumplings? ”

As soon as these words came out, Qi Jiguang's face also tightened and said, "My lord, don't get involved." ”

Luo Xin nodded and said, "Then let's send a group of people in to investigate the truth first." ”

"Good!"

Yu Dayou nodded, and immediately arranged it, and someone began to lay the plank, and then the two people walked across the moat from the plank, stretched out their hands and pushed the city gate, the city gate was really hidden, and was pushed by these two people, and it squeaked open, and the two people entered the city, put down the drawbridge, and the five hundred people waiting outside rushed in.

The entire Chun'an County was silent, and these five hundred people immediately climbed the city wall, and sure enough, they saw that the rows of red turban soldiers were all scarecrows in clothes. These people began to search the city again, and Luo Xin and the others stood quietly and waited.

Two quarters of an hour passed, and there was still no sound of fighting in the city, which not only made Luo Xin, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang ugly. No need to ask, Zhang Daoyuan and they should have already run away.

After another quarter of an hour or so, someone ran out of the city.

"Meet Lord Luo, General Yu, and General Qi."

"How's it going in the city?" Yu Dayou asked urgently.

"There are no Red Turbans!" The soldier replied.

Yu Dayou's face immediately became gloomy, and he immediately ordered the army to enter the city. When I entered the county seat, I saw that there was silence in the city, and every house closed its door. Everyone went straight to the county office, and saw that the gate of the county government was full of corpses, all of which were the corpses of officials and officials of Chun'an County. Luo Xin, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang all looked like water, waved their hands to let the soldiers start searching, and the three of them walked into the lobby.

The news was very bad, Chun'an County, up to the officials, down to the officials were killed, the county government's treasury was moved, and Zhang Zuopeng was found among the corpses, as well as the county friend of the New Year. The county government's prison was empty, and those criminals didn't know whether they ran away or followed Zhang Daoyuan.

"Slam on the door and ask me for clarification door to door." Yu Dayou's eyes spurted with anger.

About half an hour later, the news came back. It turned out that Zhang Daoyuan had ordered before dark to let all the people in the county close the gate tightly and not be allowed to come out, otherwise they would come out and kill one by one. So, these people are hiding in their homes and don't dare to come out, and they don't know what's going on outside. At this time, I heard a shocking cry outside, and it turned out that several big households in the county were snatched up by Zhang Daoyuan.

"My lord, what should I do?" Although Yu Dayou had an idea in his heart, he still asked Luo Xin to express his respect.

Luo Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said to Qi Jiguang: "Yuan Jing, you send a few people back to Hangzhou with my handwritten letter, and let him bring some people over for the New Year, so that Chun'an County can be stabilized first, and there will be no more chaos." ”

Then, Luo Xin turned to Yu Dayou and said, "General Yu, you immediately send scouts to look around for the traces of Zhang Daoyuan's Red Turban Army. ”

"Yes, sir."

Yu Dayou hurried away, Luo Xin found a pen and paper in the lobby, repaired a book, and then asked Qi Jiguang to take it and send someone back to Hangzhou.

Early the next morning.

He Nian rushed over with a few officials and some officials and began to stabilize Chun'an County. Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang and Luo Xin all stayed in the county government office in Chun'an County, waiting for the news that the scouts had returned.

It wasn't until dusk that the scouts brought back the news of Zhang Daoyuan's Red Turban Army, and Zhang Daoyuan used the scarecrow to buy time for the suspicious soldiers, and they had entered Taihu Lake.

At this moment, Luo Xin, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang all began to have headaches.

Within Taihu Lake, there are many islands, and the terrain is complicated, and the Red Turban Army is really hidden inside, and it is difficult to find it. And even if they are finally found, it will be very difficult to encircle and suppress them in Taihu Lake.

But......

Isn't it okay to not encircle and suppress?

No way!

Definitely not.

It is not terrible that there are thieves in Taihu Lake, and even Emperor Jiajing cannot know about it. Even if you know, it doesn't matter. In the Ming Dynasty, there were horse thieves, rogues, green forests, anti-thieves, all kinds, even Emperor Jiajing was accustomed to it, as long as it was not too much, the officers and soldiers were too lazy to encircle and suppress, and Emperor Jiajing would not blame.

But Zhang Daoyuan is different from other anti-thieves!

His background is different from others anyway, and he is a person that the old Zhu family is very afraid of. Such a person is now known by Emperor Jiajing, if you dare to say that after Zhang Daoyuan robbed the county office, he disappeared and could not be found, this is the act of looking for death, and Emperor Jiajing will definitely behead the person who said this.

Therefore, the fact that Zhang Daoyuan fled into Taihu Lake cannot be concealed, and since it cannot be concealed, it must be encircled and suppressed. Otherwise, don't think about going through that level of Emperor Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing is uncomfortable, and no one should think about being comfortable.

However, thousands of miles of Taihu Lake, the islands are Xingluo, and there are countless green forest bandits in this Taihu Lake, Zhang Daoyuan is hidden in it, which makes Yu Dayou, Luo Xin and Qi Jiguang very sad, but with little effect. On the contrary, he exterminated a green forest bandit, but he didn't even see the shadow of Zhang Daoyuan's Red Turban Army.

Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang and Luo Xin were lost in Taihu Lake. The three men searched in three ways in the Taihu Lake.

this day.

A small boat found Luo Xin, boarded Luo Xin's big ship, and two people came up from the boat, one was Wan Daquan, and the other was Taiwan's secret liaison left in Hangzhou.

Luo Xin waved back left and right, and Wan Daquan stepped forward and said in a low voice: "My lord, he is in a hurry to find you, saying that he has something important to report." And his subordinates brought him in. ”
