Chapter 190

Along the way, xiaobaoshan's team received many refugees. When they were about to arrive in Qinghe County, the number of the team had more than doubled when they came out.

Those who have just returned are generally responsible for the supply of grain, grass, bows and arrows for logistics, and the group brought out in front is in charge.

Along the way, xiaobaoshan always paid attention to whether there were familiar people on the road to see if ye Xiaoxian ran out.

However, he couldn't keep paying attention to the situation on the road in a hurry. He could only walk and watch.

Unfortunately, xiaobaoshan came a little late. Qinghe County had been lost the day before. The Japanese pirates had entered the city. Xiaobaoshan and others had to camp outside the city and try to get in.

During this period, some refugees who had just escaped came to take refuge. When they heard that they were troops coming to war, they couldn't help crying and complaining one after another.

"These Japanese pirates are so cruel that they commit adultery and plunder as soon as they enter the city. They don't even let go of their children for several months, and some women..." these people can't see the picture at that time.

Xiao Baoshan asked the refugees, "didn't the people in the city know that the Japanese pirates were going to invade, so they fled a lot? Didn't many people escape?"

The refugees said, "only half of them escaped. Most people still feel that the imperial court's reinforcements are coming and it is safer to stay in the city. In addition, many people can't escape. They think it's dead to escape and die if they stay. It's better to stay and take a chance. Qinghe County is always their own root, and people have to return to their root if they die."

Xiao Baoshan asked, "do you know who didn't escape in the city?"

"Many, for example, the gentry Wang's family did not escape. Now their family is miserable. The house has been requisitioned, and the people in the family have been turned to serve the Japanese pirates. It's not certain whether there are dead people or not."

Xiao Baoshan is more worried.

The king squire didn't escape. I don't know if Xiao Baozhu escaped? Baozhu is a dead brain. If she insists on not going, will Li Hongmei also follow? And leaves?

Moreover, even if you escape, you don't know if you can live. After all, there are dead people all the way.

After all, Xiao Baoshan has experienced many battles. He quickly adjusted his mood and made a battle plan in the camp.

He will analyze the enemy situation. Hong Yanguo is a small country on the island. The people on the island are good at water warfare, riding and shooting, etc. Therefore, this war is suitable for fast attack and not tenacious defense.

The plan must come down. The next step is to arrange the array and how to attack the city according to the plan.

Although there are many people in his current team, most of them have no combat experience. Some people are afraid to kill even if they are afraid of lifting a knife. Therefore, we still need to shout slogans to embolden them, arouse their inner anger, think about national hatred and family hatred, think about dead relatives, think about lost homes, and win this war if we don't win.

When the army was almost adjusted, Xiao Baoshan led the soldiers into the city.

With his battle plan and the anger of these people, as soon as the city gate was broken, the army of xiaobaoshan was unstoppable.

Although there are many Japanese pirates now, many of them are prisoners of Daqi country. How can the prisoners work for the Japanese pirates? After xiaobaoshan's army entered the city, the prisoners immediately turned back, betrayed the enemy, deliberately exposed their position, and took the initiative to fight back.

In just a few days, Qinghe County, which was crippled by Japanese pirates, was recovered by the army led by Xiao Baoshan.

After recovery, he first went home and took a look. He saw that the family was empty, fecal water was spilled everywhere, several good bedding were gone, and the smaller iron pot was gone.

He knew Ye Xiaoxian and they must have escaped.

He went to Wang's house again.

The Wang family is now miserable. The Wang squire was killed, some of the maids committed suicide after being raped, and Wang Xiucai's wife Liu Qingqing died because of dystocia.

Xiao Baozhu disappeared. I don't know whether she hid or died. There are only Wang Xiucai and several strong servants left in the Wang family. The Japanese pirates don't kill them in order to let them serve three meals a day.

Wang Xiucai suddenly encountered such changes overnight. The whole person was very haggard and negative. He didn't say anything, just like a wooden man.

Xiao Baoshan didn't have time to take care of him. He just took advantage of the victory and pursued him. He took his team all the way to Hexin county and soon recovered Hexin county.

……

imperial court.

After the good news reached the palace, the ministers in the imperial court talked about it one after another.

A minister said, "isn't xiaobaoshan treason? Why did he still lead troops to fight? Moreover, he recovered the South and calmed the war? Is he treason or serving the country?"

Another minister said, "Xiao Baoshan is now playing the title of the sixth prince. It should be that he fled to Baoning City, took refuge in the sixth king, and then borrowed troops to attack."

"So, although the six kings are in a remote place, he always cares about the country and the people. He is a good prince who loves the people like a son."

“……”

The national master sneered at the imperial court: "but what is the reason for the sixth prince to send troops? Now the whole imperial court knows that Xiao Baoshan is a traitor. Why should the sixth Prince contact him? Did they have contacts before?"

The prime minister said: "Whether Xiao Baoshan is treason or not, we have no evidence. We only know that in the previous war, other people died, and he survived. Perhaps because of this, he had no face to return to the capital and wandered outside. Now he was attacked in the south, so he volunteered to go to war. Therefore, his affairs should be called back for thorough investigation when the south is recovered."

"Hum!" The national master continued to disdain: "Hong Yanguo has only a few soldiers and horses. Any big general can win the war. Besides, all the reinforcements of our court are on the way. He killed xiaobaoshan halfway. He doesn't know what he's worried about. He doesn't want to take the opportunity to expand his team and attack the capital in the future?"

When the national master finished, the other ministers stopped talking.

At this time, the old emperor, who had always been drowsy, finally said a sentence like suddenly waking up: "what does the national teacher think we should do next?"

The national teacher said, "I think whether Xiao Baoshan is a traitor or loyal, we should take advantage of his plump wings and let the reinforcements we sent catch him all, so as not to leave future trouble."

The emperor fell asleep again and said nothing.

The prime minister objected: "is this not afraid of chilling the hearts of the people in the south? It is xiaobaoshan who saved them. Many of his team are local refugees. If the people we sent do this, the people in the South will be even more miserable."

The national master continued to hum coldly: "what do you do? Keep them growing stronger and stronger and attack the capital in the future?"

Several Guoshi parties seconded the proposal and thought that Guoshi was right. They would rather kill 100 wrong than leave the scourge of xiaobaoshan.

The prime minister's advice was gradually lost in the voices of these people.

……

Private homes.

The Third Prince Li Chengkun came together with the national teacher again.

Li Chengkun was still deep and calm, like the deep sea, could not see a ripple, and could not guess what he was thinking.

The national teacher seemed very anxious: "The third prince, the situation is not very powerful for us now. We should eradicate Xiao Baoshan earlier and the sixth Prince behind him. Hum, Li Chengyi thought he couldn't make waves in the northwest border. Who thought he could make such a big noise. If we don't take measures, I'm afraid the people's heart will fall on Li Chengyi. Today, many officials in the court are obviously not happy But I'm afraid I think there is another suitable candidate for the position of Chu Jun, that is Li Chengyi. Fortunately, your father doesn't care about state affairs now, otherwise he will announce the six kings into the palace. At that time, you will have another threat. "

When the prince cooked tea, the procedure was not bad, and I didn't know if he was listening.

The National Master said again: "third prince, I have a suggestion. Don't you also have someone in the palace? I think you can take the opportunity to tell your majesty... For example, draw up a fake edict earlier, and then put medicine in your Majesty's medicine bowl, and then the throne..."

The third prince prepared two tea cups and poured tea. One of them was pushed in front of the national teacher, and then asked, "do you think which Prince can compete with me in the imperial court?"

The national teacher thought for a moment and then said, "at present, there should be no one. After the death of the fourth prince, you are the best candidate, and all the others have mediocre qualifications. The seventh King Li Chengru has some potential, but he is too axial, one track minded, young, frivolous and unstable."

The third prince said, "it's not urgent. Wait a minute, but... Xiao Baoshan really can't keep it."

……

The fleeing group finally reached Da'an City.

The northwest is not like the Central Plains and the south. In the Central Plains and the south, if you want to go somewhere, you can generally follow the direction and approximate route. You can generally reach it by taking the main road.

But the northwest is different. It's too vast, there are no fixed roads, and there are many lakes and mountains. Sometimes it's only a mountain away, but it takes two days to get there. And they don't know much about the road and take longer.

But at least we arrived in Da'an City. After Da'an City, it is Baoning city.

There are fewer and fewer houses here. Even if there are houses, they are made of yellow mud, but there are more and more yurts. There are more and more cattle and sheep on the plain. Seeing outsiders and herdsmen, they will immediately drive the cattle and sheep aside because of their vigilance.

The gate of Da'an City is also a wall, but the wall door is closed, and many refugees gather outside.

Seeing this, Commissioner Liu couldn't help asking, "what's the matter? What's the matter? It's not like Zhengwu county that refugees are not allowed to go in again. I'm afraid we've left in vain for so many days?"

From DINGHE to Dahe, they have walked for more than ten days. The food is running out. Everyone is tired and just looking forward to taking a hot bath in the city.

Although Ye Xiaoxian is not sure whether she can take a bath, because the water source here doesn't look like much.

Seeing that Liu came by carriage outside, some refugees took the initiative to talk: "it's not that they are not allowed to enter, but that they should enter in batches. They say that the city is now overcrowded. If they enter at one time, it will be chaotic and have to queue up."

Liu Yuanwai breathed a sigh of relief. It was not that he was not allowed to enter, but that he had to queue up.

But the refugee said, "be patient. We've been waiting for two days."

Member Liu suddenly wilted again and waited for two days!
