Gesang Dunzhu's mind was full of anger and shame, and he almost lifted his skull, and he led a group of janissaries to gallop wildly, but the skill of the people, the strength of the horses' feet was not as good as that of the other party, so he could only barely stay behind. At this time, he hated the government of Yiyang very much, why did he build this flat road, and even hated that Dongguan carriages were sold all over the world, and the other party also had carriages that ran fast.

"The thief caught Aunt Pan?"

Siniang also galloped to Lanxi Tianmiao at this time, and when she saw a corpse, she was shocked and discolored, but was stopped by an acquaintance, it was He Mo Niang, and after a comparison, Siniang roughly understood the situation.

was about to ride the horse to chase out, but He Mo Niang grabbed her legs, babbling and barking, signaling that she was going too, with a resolute attitude, Siniang could not refuse, so she had to pull her on the horse.

The two girls were light, and the horses were good horses, and they rode alone like arrows and galloped away. A moment later, five hundred guards arrived from Yiyang County, and the wing commander who led the team learned that Aunt Pan had been arrested, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he led the team to chase after him.

If you raise your vision to the sky and then look down, Yiyang is already boiling at this time. A carriage and more than a dozen horsemen and horses rushing to the north were like sparks, igniting the entire Yiyang. Behind them, dozens of horsemen chased after them, then a pair of horsemen gradually caught up, and then hundreds of horsemen rolled up smoke and dust. On both sides of the avenue, messengers galloped, churning up all the patrols and guards in the vicinity of Yiyang, and thousands or even tens of thousands of people were gathering in groups. There were even messengers heading towards Changsha and Xiangyin, where tens of thousands of troops were located.

In addition to the military and political messengers, at the same time, there were countless people rushing towards Changsha, except for the sacrifices of the Lanxi Heavenly Temple and the medical workers of the Yingci Temple, most of them were people, they pursed their lips, their eyes were full of anger, and there was only one thought in their hearts: Aunt Pan was arrested by thieves

At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xi received the news that Pan Jinling had been robbed, and it was difficult to suppress his anger, so he smashed his fist on the desk, then jumped up, and then stepped on it again, breaking the teak book case.

The Praetorian guard who returned was a witness to the scene, and learned from his mouth that the robbers all spoke Shaanxi and Gansu accents, and faintly heard the military names such as military gate and Shenrong, and Li Xi understood the identity of the robbers at that time: Ma Jianbo, the newly appointed governor of Huguang.

This news was sorted out by the Military Intelligence Department from the Qing court newspaper, but the specific movements of this person are not clear. The Qing court has shrunk like a turtle grandson in Huguang for more than a year, and although the two newly appointed governors have made the intelligence department vigilant, and Ortai has also fallen into the eyes of Li Shi, they have never imagined that there will be such a movement, let alone that Ma Jianbo has such courage and ability.

The anger burned in Li Xian's chest, so that his eyes were red, and he couldn't get rid of the mania in his body when he stepped on the book, he pulled out the moon thunderbolt on his waist and glanced around, as if the horse saw the uncle in front of him.

This sweep, only to see the janissary who was kneeling on the ground to report, his anger suddenly turned to another direction, and let the thieves of less than a hundred people rob Pan Jinling alive, do you guys eat?

The guards gritted their teeth and knocked their heads on the ground with tears in their eyes, saying in their hearts that the brothers were derelict in their duties, even if they were shot and destroyed by the officials, they would never complain.

In an instant, such a thought really flashed in Li Xian's heart, but then he was suppressed by a cold aura rising from the bottom of his heart, which was self-blame.

Pan Jinling has been in Hunan for a year, and if she wants to attack her, she will not choose this time, it is obvious that Ma Jianbo mistakenly thought that he had gone to Lanxi. To put it bluntly, if you want to ask the culprit, you can't get out of it.

Li Xi calmed down, and his brain started quickly.

Ma Jianbo robbed Panjin Ling, naturally using it as a bargaining chip, and there should be no worries about his life. But that guy went straight to the north, and it is estimated that there is also a response on the lake, and if he wants to stop Ma Jianbo, he can't have too much hope, so he has to consider the worst-case scenario.

"Chips...... If you want to use my woman as a bargaining chip, you have to see what price you will pay."

The fury in his eyes subsided, replaced by a cold light.

"Prepare the Hunan Guards, all of them will gather in Taoyuan and Miluo"

Li Shi said in a deep voice, Yang Shi wrote the floor, the Hunan Guards had more than 30 battalions and nearly 20,000 people, which was closer to the soldiers than the Guangdong Guards. This transfer, one east and one west, is like a big tong, approaching Changde and Yuezhou, and it wants to create pressure on the Qing court, Yang Shi understands it this way.

"Urgently summon Wu Ya to Changsha, serve as the governor of Huguang, and unify the three armies of Shenwu, Dragoon, and Tielin"

Then Li Shi gave a second order, which surprised Yang Shi. Let's not mention that Wu Ya is known as the head bead curtain, and this year he has been lecturing in the Huangpu Martial Arts School to further study and sharpen his heart. Let's just say that the separate governor of Huguang and his inclusion in the three armies has already demonstrated Li Shi's intention to seize the entire Huguang. , "Zhang Hanwan served as the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and commanded the two armies of Yulin and Longxiang"

As soon as the third order came out, Yang Shi suddenly felt that his pen was as heavy as iron, and he was going to sweep Sichuan and Shaanxi? This is a big violation of Li Shi's original national policy.

"Xiao is qualified to serve as the governor of Jiangdong, and he commands the three armies of Yingyang, Huben, and Fubo"

The fourth order was issued, Yang Shi couldn't move his pen anymore, and he said with difficulty: "The official family, although Aunt Pan is important, but you can't enter the national politics with personal feelings......"

These four orders are basically to make a comprehensive Northern Expedition Yang Shi himself is actually a Northern Expedition faction, and he is dissatisfied with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry that is full of shouting about the more land he gains, the more he loses, and is the same as the Three Sages Party, thinking that he can go on the Northern Expedition as soon as possible and recover the whole of China. But let's not say that we rushed to the army without preparation, and said that this Northern Expedition was actually for Aunt Pan, which seems to be a bit ...... What's that, right? No mistakes in many words

Personal relationship?

Li Shi looked at Yang Shi, and saw that a layer of sweat suddenly appeared on the latter's back, and his eyes were cold at first, but there was a blazing heat that seemed to melt gold and iron in the depths.

I'm not a computer, and in this world, I don't have to go on a Northern Expedition before playing a strategy game, or I have nothing to do with private affairs, I can calmly consider my interests, and I can think about the future of China as a whole. But now it's different, now the other party wants to use my woman to blackmail me, and what long-term interests are, then I can only throw them aside. can't even protect his own woman, what country and nation are you talking about?

"These edicts were sent to the Privy Council, and at the same time to the newspapers......"

Naturally, he couldn't confide in his heart, Li Shi suppressed the light in his eyes and said lightly.

Yang Shi was relieved, Li Shi really had the intention to be arbitrary, and once he was on the Northern Expedition, there was no need to give an order to the Privy Council, but directly issued a military order in the name of the General Command. Now it is only an order to the Privy Council, and according to the government process, it has to be repeated at the Council of State, and there will definitely be objections at that time.

If the first generation wants to spread the news to various newspapers, Li Shi's intentions are obvious, this is just to build momentum, and the purpose is to convey the news of the upcoming Northern Expedition to the Qing court.

Looking at Yang Shi, who seemed to have thought through it, Li Xianxin said that this was not just to build momentum, once needed, he would directly issue military orders in the name of the General Headquarters.

Then Li Xian said: "Give an order to the people of the Heaven and Earth Society and the Military Intelligence Department in Hunan, let them send news to Yongzheng in Beijing from both sides, and at the same time bring warnings to the Qing court officials in Huguang...... Alive, bloody warning"

At the same time that Li Shi began to start the two huge machines of the military and government in order to Pan Jinling, the Huanjiang River in the north of Yiyang, on the shore of Dongting Lake, there were also white waves behind the fast boat.

"Hurry up and let us wait to lure away the pursuers"

Ma Jianbo's team got on the ship in a hurry, there were less than ten people, and seeing the smoke and dust rising from the rear, several subordinates resolutely stayed.

"Take care of the loyalty you are waiting for, my Ma family can't forget it, and the court will never forget it."

Ma saw Bo tearfully parting, and the fast boat pedaled and moved the oars, galloping offshore.

Driving into the vast Dongting Lake, his subordinates asked, "Junmen, where are we going?" ”

Ma Jianbo's brain is also spinning rapidly, although Changde in the west is close, but Longyang County is in the hands of the Nanban, and it is difficult for this section of the lake to escape the pursuit of the Nanban.

He said in a deep voice: "Go north to Gulou Town"

Yuezhou can't go either, the Nanban army is too close to Yuezhou, it's best to take Aunt Pan to Jingzhou or Wuchang, put it in a safe place first, and then come to negotiate a deal with Li Shi. Of course, as long as it can be brought to the north shore of Dongting Lake, the whereabouts of Aunt Pan, and what deal to mention, it is not a matter for me, the governor of Huguang, to be in charge.

There were screams on the shore, and several knights who tried to lure away their pursuers were knocked off their horses by the guards who had scattered into a large net, and looked far away, and the shadow of a boat with white waves on the surface of the lake, Kelsang Dhondrup threw the crocodile felt hat on his head, which he regarded as a treasure, to the ground in despair.

"The ship hurried to collect the ship, and the ship must not be abandoned"

A crisp shout sounded, and Siniang arrived.

Look at He Mo Niang, who rode with Si Niang, because it was rare to ride a horse like this, she was frowning and panting, but her eyes were staring straight at the lake, without a trace of dejected misery, and Gesang Dunzhu was ashamed.

He gritted his teeth and roared: "If we don't save Aunt Pan, we don't need to go back to see the official's house, Xiaohong, you will directly cut off our heads at that time."

Unintentionally corrected Gesang Dunzhu to call her by her old name, Siniang frowned and said, "What's the use of asking for your heads?" Aunt Pan is really going to have an accident, you will go to Beijing to get Yongzheng's head"

Yiyang City, Li Xi never thought that time would be so slow, every minute and second, he was looking forward to things taking a turn for the better, but the reality was ruthless, and the worst he had expected had already appeared. Ma Jianbo is really not an ordinary person, just like his cousin Yunnan Ma Huibo, who is thoughtful and decisive. has escaped into Dongting Lake with Panjin Ling. , Yiyang County, together with Longyang County in the west, and Xiangyin County in the east, have been fully mobilized, and the water patrol has been dispatched, and countless fishermen have also been mobilized to open a dense net to block the east and west sides of Dongting Lake, and at the same time, the secret spies of the Heaven and Earth Society and the Military Intelligence Department have also poured into Changde and Yuezhou, as long as Ma Jianbo appears in these two places with Pan Jinling, there is no possibility of escape.

But after a whole day, there was no news, which means that Ma Jianbo went directly to the north shore of Dongting Lake......

"Yongzheng...... What kind of nerve is it? ”

Li Xian stayed awake all night and thought a lot, the robbery of Pan Jinling has gone from the surface of Pan Jinling and Ma Jianbo to the back of the current situation. He suddenly realized that he had missed Yongzheng's movements? Before, people from all sides of the Qing court came to Guangdong, both light and dark, could it be that Yongzheng began to have any intentions on his side? As a result, people from all walks of life have the courage to gamble on themselves?

How is that possible? Yongzheng is not so two, right? No mistakes in many words

He just cleaned up the ninth and fourteenth, and the eighth was still by his side, and the treasury was even empty. If you want soldiers or no soldiers, if you want money but no money, you will start to turn your head to provoke me, and eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall?

Or is it that he has what basis and what news he knows, and he is sure that I am going to be unlucky, so he took advantage of the fire to rob?

Looking at it from another angle, is it possible that he is using this to warn me, and to take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail me, so that he can gain more prestige, so that he can consolidate his authority and do the next thing?

In summary, we can speculate a possibility, if this movement is not a spontaneous isolated incident by all parties, if Yongzheng is not the real two this time, and he doesn't even have some basic political wisdom, then it means one thing, there is indeed a danger approaching, but I still don't know it?

Li Xian had a headache when he thought about it, and quickly turned back to the real problem, Pan Jinling, how to save it.

In Chenzhou Mansion, Hunan, another person jumped like thunder, rushed out of his command office, and shouted loudly: "Tielin Armament War"

A girl with a dark complexion and a pretty and lovely face glared and said, "Pan Shiyu, what are you crazy about?" ”

This person was Pan Shiyu, the commander of the Xinjian Tielin Army, he turned his head to look at the girl, wanting to scold but not daring to scold. This is not an ordinary girl, but Guizhou recruited Long Zhilan, in the four battalions of his Tielin Army, the third battalion is a young man of all ethnic groups, and Long Zhilan recruited many heroes of all ethnic groups for him from Guizhou.

He gritted his teeth and said, "The Tartars took my sister"

Long Zhilan froze, and after a while, anger also covered her face, she stomped her feet and said, "How can you Tielin Army alone be enough?" I'm going to Guizhou Wei too."

It was Pan Shiyu's turn to be stunned, he frowned and said, "I am summoned by the fourth brother, but you ...... The fourth brother didn't say that he wanted you to defend Guizhou Province, this is a violation of military discipline."

Long Zhilan said: "Then I resigned from that official and let my people retire and become ordinary people." Fourth Brother...... Your Majesty the Emperor, you can't give me an order."

Even if Pan Shiyu was anxious, he was made laughed at by Long Zhilan, "Don't, I'll ask the fourth brother Pegasus for orders, and allow you to go with you." ”

Such battle orders flew into Li Shi's hands like snowflakes, and Li Xi didn't know at this time that more people who didn't have to ask him for orders had already embarked on the journey on their own initiative.
