Chapter 147: The Dark Version of the Peach Blossom Fan
"Search carefully, don't run away from that slut!"
Hou Fangyu carried a sword and roared in the firelight with a hideous face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In front of him, dozens of house slaves armed with scimitars were brutally rushing up to the boats and searching in the cabin, and those boatmen were waiting with smiling faces one by one, looking at the things they damaged from time to time, of course, no one dared to say a word, everyone knew that the Hou family was covering the sky with one hand in Guide.
"This slut!"
Hou Fangyu's lips trembled and he scolded.
He didn't expect that the concubine he brought back from the south would actually run out to tell Liu Fangliang, this Qinhuai Kabuki slut has been with him for many years, before Nanjing City was broken, he was forced to hide in the nunnery for refuge, he fled to Songjiang, and later Li Zicheng enabled Qian Qianyi, he returned to Nanjing to find it again, and then just returned to Guide and came back with him. But I didn't expect this slut to eavesdrop on the conversation between their father and son yesterday, and then ran out to try to tell Liu Fangliang, fortunately, his wife had a scheming and kept arranging for someone to keep an eye on her, but she was intercepted by the house slave before she arrived at Liu Fangliang, but this slut was also cunning, and actually slipped away halfway.
He is not afraid that this slut will go to tell Liu Fangliang again, the latter has already been staring at the house slaves there, but he is afraid that this slut will board the boat and go south to Xuzhou to tell the dog emperor, here is only more than 300 miles away from Xuzhou by water, and the boat going down the river can reach Xuzhou in less than a day.
The news of the latter's capture of Xuzhou had just come at this time.
The soldiers and civilians of Xuzhou surrendered almost without a fight, and even cut off Liu Zeqing's head to welcome the dog emperor's terrible news made the Guide gentry shudder, they already knew very well that if the dog emperor came, the people of the city would definitely also cut off their heads to welcome the dog emperor.
The Yellow River must be dug up!
There is no other way to survive.
"Childe, no!"
A house slave reported to him.
"Hold the ferry, not a boat is allowed to go down, if that slut appears, immediately arrest her back to the house, I have to soak her in a pig cage!"
Hou Fangyu said viciously.
He didn't have time to delay, he had to rush to Lanyang as soon as possible to find Ma Degong, this matter was a long night, Liu Fangliang didn't dare to hide it for too long, taking advantage of the rising water level of the Yellow River, he simply went to dig the copper tile compartment immediately, at that time it was too late for anyone to stop it, so after saying that, he immediately got on the horse and ran towards Lanyang with a few house slaves, he didn't notice that at this time, in a filthy ditch not far away, a pair of eyes with tears were quietly watching him through the dense cattail.
Li Xiangjun, who was holding a folding fan in his arms, watched his love go away.
She never thought that this man she had been in love with since she was sixteen years old would be a demon, he was handsome and dashing, he was graceful and graceful, he was one of the four sons of the Restoration Society, he was famous all over the world and was the protagonist of all girls' dreams, and he was like all girls, thinking that he was happily snuggling in his arms, stroking the piano and singing for him, listening to his poems, and watching him guide the country, but just a few hours ago, this beautiful dream-like picture suddenly changed to hell on earth......
The surging waters of the Yellow River flowed freely in countless rural cities, and countless swollen rotting corpses were piled up everywhere they could see, piled up on the garbage of the river, piled up among the ruins, piled up in the mud, and everything on the ground was reduced to nothing, except for vultures and running wild dogs in the sky, tearing at the carrion on the corpses.
Growing up in Nanjing, she certainly understands what flooding means.
And he wants to dig the Yellow River.
He wants to let the flood flood flood almost one-third of the province, let the flood drown millions of innocent people, the purpose is just to save his tens of thousands of acres of land, just that, the former turbid Shijia son tore off the painting skin on his body at this moment, and the image piled up with countless gorgeous poems and songs collapsed.
At this moment, his back looks like a hideous ghost in Li Xiangjun's eyes.
It's just ridiculous for my former infatuation.
Li Xiangjun kept crawling forward in the rancid sewage, letting her tears drip as she crawled, and she didn't know how long, a turbulent river suddenly appeared in front of her, she didn't stop, she continued to crawl forward, and the turbulent river immediately washed her downstream. At this moment, a wooden plank in front of her came with the water, she subconsciously stretched out her hand to grab it, but the one in her hand that Hou Fangyu left for her before fleeing, and later because she resisted a Shun army general to the death, the folding fan dripping with her blood fell into the river, she wanted to reach out to grab it, but finally gave up, and watched with a bitter face that the folding fan disappeared into the waves in an instant.
She lay on the plank like this, and went down the surging Yellow River in a daze......
"Big sister, wake up!"
I don't know how long it took, but a voice suddenly sounded next to me.
Li Xiangjun woke up from a coma and opened her eyes, a ray of sunlight immediately pierced her eyes, she subconsciously raised her hand to cover it, only to find herself lying in the mud and sand of the river beach, and a young man who looked smaller than herself was squatting in front of her, shaking her shoulders to wake herself up.
On his head he wore a silver helmet with a wide brimming silver helmet, in the center of which was an enamel white sun and yellow moon, hugging together in a circle, and wearing a scarlet right shirt with a stand-up collar and two yellow brass stars on each side of the collar, and on the right chest of the shirt were two identical four-pointed stars, two white diagonal shoulder straps crossed over his chest, and in his other hand he held a bird's gun, above which was a slender spike that reflected a dazzling light in the sun.
"You, who are you?"
Li Xiangjun looked at him suspiciously, and said to the other four young men behind him who were also dressed in the same clothes.
"Are you a Yingtian?"
The young man exclaimed in surprise.
"The concubine's ancestral home is Suzhou, and she grew up in Yingtian."
Li Xiangjun said.
"I'm from Changshu."
The young man said excitedly, but then whispered, "But I'm a beggar." ”
"I'm Lejia, we're all the same."
Li Xiangjun smiled and said.
Then he stood up with his support.
"It's okay, the emperor has already issued an order, in the future, we will not have a cheap nationality in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a beggar, a craftsman or a happy household, all of them are the same as the people, they are all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, they can all study and become officials and generals, I am already a sergeant now, and I am also the deputy commander!"
The young man said proudly.
"Emperor, Emperor?"
Li Xiangjun's head buzzed, and she suddenly came to her senses, she grabbed the latter's shoulder and shouted eagerly: "Are you all court officials?" Hurry, hurry up and tell the emperor that they are going to dig the Yellow River dam, Hou Sui and Ma Degong colluded to dig the Tongwaxiang Yellow River dam and flood the entire Yanzhou, hurry, hurry up and tell the emperor, it will be too late, Hou Fangyu went to Lanyang to find Ma Degong last night. ”
"Uh, let's go!"
The young man's face changed, and after speaking, he picked her up and hurriedly rushed to the embankment behind him.
An hour later.
The Brigade Headquarters of the Seventh Infantry Brigade of the Dangkou Army in Shanxian County.
"Li Xiangjun?"
Zheng Chenggong looked at Li Xiangjun who was brought to him by the soldiers in amazement.
"Zheng Damu?"
Li Xiangjun also looked at him in amazement.
Obviously, the two know each other, which is not surprising, Zheng Chenggong is also a prisoner of Nanjing Guozijian, and even a protégé of Shui Tailiang, plus he is a top rich second generation, it is estimated that he has a lot of contacts with Hou Fangyu on weekdays, and it is even more common for him to go in and out of major brothels with his financial resources, and it is impossible not to even know Li Xiangjun, one of Qin Huai's Bayan. However, Da Mu is definitely not as popular as the fourth son, after all, he has a bad background and his literary style is not a level, and the martial arts family is even more naturally dwarf, at most he is an inconspicuous little supporting role, and it is rare to be able to enter Li Xiangjun's eyes. Yang Feng led the main force of the Dangkou Army south to Xuzhou, and the Second Cavalry Brigade and the Seventh and Eighth Infantry Brigades formed the West Route Army to return from Yanzhou, but this road was only a containment, Zheng Chenggong was not ready to intensify the Yellow River attack to Guide, but he did not expect that the patrol of the Seventh Brigade actually brought Li Xiangjun to him in this place.
"Hou Fangyu really wants to dig the Yellow River?"
Zheng Chenggong immediately asked.
"He and Hou Sui originally wanted to find Liu Fangliang to do it, but Liu Fangliang didn't do this kind of unconscionable thing, so they hid Liu Fangliang and directly looked for Ma Degong who was stationed in Lanyang, and I went to Liu Fangliang to report the news but was intercepted by them, and was later chased to the Yellow River. And last night Hou Fangyu left Guide, it is estimated that this afternoon will be able to Lanyang, they plan to dig the copper tile dike, so that the river to the northeast to irrigate Yanzhou Dongchangfu and other places, Hou Sui estimated that the Yellow River will be diverted into the sea, the entire Luxi and most of the northern part of Lubei will be flooded, the emperor's army is completely isolated in the Xuzhou area. ”
Li Xiangjun said.
"Quick, send her to Xuzhou, send the order to the Second Cavalry Brigade, immediately follow me to Lanyang, the Eighth Infantry Brigade will follow, and the Seventh Infantry Brigade will stay in Shan County, Ma, they are really going crazy!"
Zheng Chenggong wiped his cold sweat, grabbed his saber without hesitation, and roared as he rushed out.
He knew very well that the situation was critical, this place was more than two hundred miles away from the copper tile carriage, even if the cavalry galloped at full speed regardless of the war horses, it would have to be after evening, and Hou Fangyu should have arrived by then. There is no Ming army opposite Ma Degong, the nearest one is in Fengqiu, there is only one battalion, and it is also a battalion in Changyuan, their task is only to be vigilant, and Ma Degong's 5,000 people confront, but everyone knows that the other party will not cross the river, so the defense is extremely lax. Ma Degong's success in crossing the river is certain, the two spear infantry battalions got the news, and it will take some time to rush to intercept it, and Ma Degong only needs to dig a hole in the embankment and stuff it with a thousand catties of gunpowder, and the embankment can be broken at once, and as long as there is a gap, the remaining turbulent river can be solved by itself.
At that point, the tide was really gone.
Looking at his back, Li Xiangjun let out a sigh of relief.
She didn't know that she had finally gotten rid of the miserable ending of the second half of her life, originally in history she married into the Hou Mansion, but within a few years because of the exposure of the identity of the courtesan, she was driven out by Hou Sui, and had to live in the Hou family's firewood garden, and the children she gave birth to were not allowed to have the surname Hou, and finally died depressed in about thirty, so fairy tales are all lies, and the ending of a beautiful love story is not necessarily really beautiful, whether it is a tragedy or a comedy, in fact, it only depends on which paragraph the literati let the world see.
