"Without the support of Shandong, it will be difficult for Qin Xia to get supplies. In this regard, General Dang Shousu's first battle was not without gains. At the very least, a battle that didn't hurt us much could make Qin Xia empty his savings, and it would be more difficult to replenish the military supplies. You know, flint and lead things have always been expensive and rare. ”

"Again...... As soon as Qin Xia arrived in Kaifeng, he was in a hurry to rescue Kaifeng, but he forgot about it...... There are two superintendents in this Shandong alone. Up to now, there is probably a third supervisor in Shandong. Qinxia District is a Shandong town supervising army, with a weak foundation, but he is so showy. This is in officialdom...... It's never a good thing. It will not make the current commander of the Henan official army happy! ”

"Don't forget, Zhu Xianzhen was defeated, precisely because the officials and generals were not in harmony, and the intentions of the various departments were different. And Qin Xia wants to defeat my army, no matter how strong the six thousand strong soldiers are, it is useless, and he must hope that the other officers and soldiers will use their lives as one. For example, Zuo Liangyu, such as Hu Dawei, such as Chen Yongfu in the city. If you want them to use their lives, you have to rely on Hou Sui's strength. ”

"But...... Can you? If he really could, Ding Qirui would not have been defeated in Zhuxian Town! ”

When Li Yan said this, the generals regained their morale one after another. For a while, the sound of shame was endless.

"Fortunately, Li Yan is under my command." Li Zicheng muttered in his heart, forcibly held down this sentence, and did not say it.

Fengqiu County.

Hou Sui has been very bored recently, if you want to catch up with the fashion, it is: the official is bitter in his heart.

Yes, Hou Sui's heart is bitter.

Especially after learning of the defeat of Zhu Xianzhen, it was like eating catties of Coptis chinensis.

Zuo Liangyu took the lead in retreating, and the 180,000-strong army disappeared. The battle situation in Henan at the moment has become a mess, and this mess is obviously for Hou Sui to take over.

Hou Sui didn't want to go, so he had already written a note. He asked His Majesty the Emperor to give up Henan. As long as the thieves are not proliferated for the time being, there is still hope for our Ming Dynasty......

However, before Hou Sui's recital was issued, he saw four messengers who had crossed the Yellow River and sent urgent letters for help.

Hou Sui was not surprised to receive a letter from Henan asking for help. In fact, after the defeat of Zhu Xianzhen, Henan successively issued many official documents asking for help from Hou Xian.

But this time. Seeing four messengers in a row, Hou Sui felt unusual.

When the last sweaty messenger was helped in by his entourage, Hou Sui asked, "How many messengers have come out of Kaifeng City?" At present, Kaifeng City is surrounded by thieves, even if it breaks through at night to ask for help, I am afraid that it will be intercepted along the way. Moreover, there are thieves on this river who are intercepting by boat, and it may not be easy for you to break through. ”

The knight handed over the distress letter, then gasped and said, "Please also ask Lord Hou to know." A total of eighteen men were sent out of the city to deliver the letter. The villain was the last to go out. Fortunately, the villain fought all the way, and fortunately there was no thief's boat on the Yellow River, and I heard that there were other officers and soldiers, so the crossing of the river to the north was considered smooth. Ignorance...... The adults can see the villain's other brothers? ”

"With you, there should be four of them. As for the other ......" After Hou Sui finished speaking, he sighed lightly, accepted the official document, and said, "Someone is coming." Settle these warriors better. ”

Eighteen men were dispatched, but only four managed to break through.

Not to mention that the defenders in the city released eighteen dead soldiers in a row to deliver the message. Even if only four of the eighteen people came out, it can be seen that Kaifeng is surrounded fiercely.

"The situation in Henan is really critical...... Hou Sui thought in his heart and opened the letter. It's just that as soon as he saw the words on it, Hou Sui suddenly lost his voice and said, "How is it possible?" ”

Just when Hou Sui exclaimed, outside the door. One of his footsteps hurried over.

Hou Sui frowned for a long time, but he didn't react to the sound of footsteps outside the door. It wasn't until the person who came called three times in a row that Hou Sui raised his head and looked at the person: "It turned out to be my son Chaozong." Why are you here, in a hurry. Don't say it first? ”

Hou Sui said as he put away the letter. Then, looking at Hou Fangyu, Hou Sui's tone was a little weak.

Hou Fangyu didn't notice this stubble, but said with some solemnity: "Father." This is the secret letter of the Beijing teacher Zhou Xiang, the child has just received, seeing that the messenger is urgent, the child hurriedly sent it over to say goodbye, Jingzhong has been determined, the governor Huguang, Sichuan, Henan military and political inspectors confirmed by the father. And also...... There was a military situation on the south bank of the Yellow River, and the matter was quite urgent, so the child hurried over. ”

"What kind of happy event is the three provinces of the superintendent? What Ding Qirui left behind was just a deep pit full of erosion. ”

"What could be considered an emergency? Where did so much urgency come from? Hou Sui complained impatiently, looking very bad.

Hearing this, Hou Fangyu immediately lowered his head, respectfully raised Zhou Yanru's secret letter high, and handed it to Hou Sui.

Seeing this, Hou Sui wrinkled his brows, and knew that he was restless and lost his temper. After settling down, Hou Sui reached out, caught the letter in Hou Fangyu's hand, quickly opened it, and read it at a glance.

It's just that Hou Sui saw this, and Hou Fangyu suddenly became bitter.

After Hou Fangyu handed over the letter, he maintained the posture of handing the letter, lowered his head and said nothing. The Hou family's tutor is quite strict, and Hou Fangyu is naturally very respectful in front of Hou Sui. At this moment, seeing that Hou Sui did not speak, Hou Fangyu also lowered his head and did not dare to move.

just endured it for thirty breaths, but Hou Fangyu still didn't wait for Hou Sui's voice.

After a long time, Hou Fangyu finally had the courage to look at it, and suddenly found that the letter had quietly fallen to the ground. Topmost......

"The prince is in Kaifeng, and the cabinet is shaken. His Majesty was anxious, and the crown prince was crowned as the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the five provinces and the whole prince. Now that the emperor's order has been issued, the cabinet does not dare to disobey, and the virtuous brother is the governor of Henan, Huguang, and Sichuan, and Ding Qirui is the general suppression of thieves...... This battle must not be abandoned...... Need to save ...... quickly"

In just a few lines, Hou Fangyu suddenly felt shocked. Unexpectedly, the secret letter from Zhou Yanru turned out to be that the prince was not in the palace for a long time, but ran to Kaifeng. Suddenly, countless rumors in Beijing that the crown prince had gone south to prison came to mind, and Hou Fangyu suddenly felt a burst of heat all over his body. Seems...... Let Hou Fangyu discover a new continent where gold can be picked up.

At this moment, Fang Yu then set his eyes on Hou Xun's body again, and looked at the scene of Hou Xun's frowning. Hou Fangyu's eyes rolled, but many thoughts came to his mind.

"Father...... But worried about the current situation, there is nowhere to solve it? Hou Fangyu said in a low voice. (To be continued......)
