Chapter 181: Chen Gongyong Returns to Song

When Li Mingxin heard this, he stood up: "This is worth it!" These Song people, planting the land of my Jiaozhi and drinking the water of our Jiaozhi, want to do such a rebellious thing! Someoneβ€”"

Chen Afu was startled, hurriedly waved his hands, and made a silent gesture: "Shangguan, why are you still calling people in?" You can't let anyone else know about this! ”

"Well, what do you mean?" Li Mingxin looked Chen Afu up and down, "Since they are going to rob the military camp, I naturally have to arrange it in advance." The people outside are all my Jiaozhi elite, as long as you take precautions, is it possible that you are still afraid of a group of chaotic people? ”

"Shangguan, how many people are there?"

"Whole Command, what's wrong?"

Chen Afu sighed: "As soon as you command, the Chen family has more than 2,000 people!" The so-called heroes are difficult to defeat with four hands, and no matter how elite they are, how can they prevent so many people? What's more, it's at night, and it's on the territory of the Chen family, they are geographically familiar, who knows what tricks they have? ”

When the commander heard the order, he went into the tent and saluted: "Chief, what are your orders?" ”

Li Mingxin didn't take it seriously, but as soon as he heard Chen Afu say that he was familiar with the geography of the Chen family, he couldn't help but think of the battle at the mouth of the valley in Langzhou. Just because of the terrain advantage, the Jiaozhi army suffered enough, and finally ended up with a total annihilation. If I hadn't seen the wrong opportunity and escaped fast enough, I don't know what to do now.

Thinking of this, Li Mingxin said to the commander who came in: "It's nothing, this Chen Afu is a little thirsty when he speaks, you bring someone to tea." ”

The commander was suspicious, but he didn't dare to say anything, and silently withdrew from the tent.

Watch the commander go out. Li Mingxin asked Chen Afu in a low voice: "Say it." There are no outsiders here. What ideas do you have to get me out of tonight's catastrophe safely? In Thang Long Mansion, my words still have a bit of weight, as long as I can be safe tonight, your benefits will be indispensable in the future! ”

Chen Afu's face was happy: "Little thank you for the grace of Shangguan!" ”

Seeing Li Mingxin staring at him with a calm face, Chen Afu hurriedly said: "But for today's plan, only hiding from the sky and crossing the sea is the safest way." ”

"How did you hide from Haifa?"

"The Chen family launched such a big chaos, and if they don't make a move, they will definitely not be able to stop it. If Shangguan escaped with his soldiers and horses now, he would definitely not be able to escape their eyes. The best way to do it. It was Shangguan who found a few people close to him and could trust, disguised himself, and quietly escaped at night. These soldiers and horses stay here, they can temporarily stabilize the spies of the Chen family, and when they are in trouble, they can drag the Chen family again. ”

Hearing this, Li Mingxin's eyes had already lit up, and he looked at Chen Afu and nodded.

Chen Afu licked his lips and continued: "When the people of the Chen family found out that Shangguan was not in the camp, Shangguan had already passed the Fuliang River at that time. Not only can you get rid of difficulties, but you can also mobilize troops and horses to come over. Isn't it also a credit? ”

Li Mingxin clapped his hands: "Seeing that your life is obscene, but you don't want to think but you are dexterous, this plan is exactly what I want!" From now on, you will be by my side, and you will be rich and rich! ”

Chen Afu waited for this sentence, and his eyes immediately lit up.

Li Mingxin is a high-ranking eunuch, so naturally he will not go out alone, and when he came out of Thang Long Mansion, he brought more than a dozen close cronies. After discussing with Chen Afu, Li Mingxin called his cronies, changed into his usual clothes together, found an excuse, and quietly left the barracks.

Led by Chen Afu, a local, a group of people found a small road and quietly traveled for a few miles, before they got on their horses together and flew towards the Fuliang River, throwing 500 soldiers and horses on the road.

However, it was said that before dawn the next day, Chen Gongyong took two or three thousand people and took advantage of the darkest time before dawn to unexpectedly end the Jiaozhi military camp.

But I searched inside and out, but I couldn't find the prison guard Li Mingxin, and I asked people all over the place, but I didn't know where to go.

It wasn't until someone in the clan said that Chen Afu was missing, that Chen Gongyong came back to his senses and scolded hatefully: "I forgot this thief, he was originally a Jiaozhi person, and it didn't fit with Uncle Jiu to see that he was dying of starvation and saved him to the clan." Today's incident must be that he leaked the news, hateful! ”

Ping Bo asked loudly outside the crowd: "Da Lang, the sky is about to dawn, we have already done the matter, and the Thang Long Mansion will inevitably send troops to chase after us, how should we deal with it?" ”

"No matter what, according to the original plan, the whole clan will go north along the avenue together and go to the Great Song Dynasty official army in Langzhou! Although it is a pity that he failed to catch the Jiaozhi Prison Army, it is also a credit to clean up the last commanding soldiers and horses of Jiaozhi. We were originally from the Central Plains, and with Seventeen Lang as witnesses, the Song Army will inevitably take us in. According to the situation in Yongzhou, which Pingbo said, everyone can at least work in cane sugar, and there is no shortage of food and clothing. From now on, we will be the Great Song Dynasty, and we will go back to Fujian Road next year to worship the ancestral tomb! ”

After Chen Gongyong finished speaking, everyone cheered together. The Chen family is a big family, whether it is on Fujian Road or in Jiaozhi, there are many clansmen, and there are people who take care of them everywhere. Even when I arrived in Yongzhou, there were also a large number of Fujianese people in the sugar business, and they would not be unfamiliar.

From the moment they decided to do this big thing, the Chen family had already packed up their things, and at this time, they did not delay any longer, took the captured officers of Jiaozhi and Xiaoxiao, set fire to several villages, and headed north along the avenue.

However, it was said that Li Mingxin escaped overnight, and it was not until noon the next day that he arrived at the Fuliang River, found a ferry to cross the river, and it was already evening. When I arrived at the Li Fengxiao military camp stationed here, it was already midnight.

Not to mention how Li Mingxin cleverly talked about the war in Langzhou, he encouraged Li Fengxiao to send soldiers and horses to hunt down and kill the Chen family who returned to the Song Dynasty. When Li Fengxiao sent troops and horses to cross the Fuliang River, another day passed.

Chen Gongyong took the whole clan to hurry up, men, women and children, no matter what, they couldn't go fast, and they couldn't help but feel anxious. Their ranks were huge, and no force dared to stop them, and on the third day they entered the territory of Langzhou.

Chen Gongyong found Ping Bo and said to him: "Ping Bo, you are a person who has been to Yongzhou, and you are more familiar than us. Now the brigade can't go fast, so it's better for you to choose a few sturdy juniors, ride a horse and go first, and let the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty pick us up. If we are slow and are overtaken from behind, it will be a disaster! ”

Ping Bo traveled south and north, and he saw a lot of well-informed people, who didn't know how powerful it was, and hurriedly said: "Since Da Lang commanded, I naturally didn't dare to refuse." A few days ago, there was a war in Langzhou, and there must still be soldiers and horses in the Great Song Dynasty, and now that we have entered the territory of Langzhou, they have no worries, and it is not difficult to ask for help! ”

At this time, after a few days of celebration, the brigade began to evacuate. It was the season of sugar extraction, and there was a serious shortage of people in the sugar industry, so more than 20,000 people returned first and returned to farming. The township soldiers also left Langzhou one after another, returned to various places, and only officially disbanded when they arrived at the original assembly place.

When Ping Bo rushed to Langzhou, Xu Ping was also preparing to return to Taiping County with Shi Quanbin, preparing to send Shi Quanbin back to Beijing, and almost missed it.

(Note: The historical record of Chen Gongyong's return to the Song Dynasty is relatively brief, but it is mentioned that Jing Youzhong led 600 people to return to the Song Dynasty, because it is only an introduction to the subsequent events, and it will not be expanded in detail in the book.)
