Number of romantic figures

Chapter 2146 The road to the south of the Guizi scroll, the road of thorns
Duan Xipeng and Feng Jinchang didn't know each other at first, but after such a long run-in, especially when they were repeatedly attacked and harassed along the way, they can be regarded as sharing joys and sorrows and overcoming difficulties together, so it's hard to say how close the relationship is, but it can be regarded as a bit of sympathy up.

Duan Xipeng is very bold and decisive, while Feng Jinchang is meticulous in his thinking, and he does things that he does not expect to succeed before failing. This is what Duan Xipeng admires the most.

Feng Jinchang nodded: "Back to the three grandmas, Brother Nine and I also had some understanding with the Pingyang government office before. At present, the rebellious army mainly comes from Longmendu River, and it has been continuing, but the north, Shanxi, The anti-insurgency troops from Datong Second Township went southward slowly, and it is said that the southward army from Shanxi Township only went as far as Huozhou, and because of lack of food and pay, their morale was not high,..."

One sentence made Baoqin's three daughters frown and their hearts sank.

Besides, I don't understand, the morale is not high, can you fight?Can you win against these rebels who have been active on the territory of Pingyang Prefecture for a month or two?Not to mention that these rebels seem to have local rebels and rebellious parties involved.

Feng Jinchang didn't care about this, and continued on his own: "Pingyang Mansion has learned that after Wuping Pass was captured, the rebel army has reached the surrounding area of ​​Jiangzhou City. Jiangzhou City is still safe for the time being, but how long can it last? It depends on the progress of the Shanxi army going south."

"In Linjin, the official army defeated the siege of the rebellious army, but in the Yi clan, the situation deteriorated. The Yi clan city has been besieged. It's hard to say how long it can last." Feng Jinchang paused, "Once the Yi clan loses Now, Wenxi will not be safe when he arrives in Anyi, so he can't go on this road, so if he wants to go, he has to go early, and cross this road before the rebel army captures the Yi clan."

"How long can the Yi family stay, what does the government say?" Baoqin got it right and asked about the key.

Now going south from Linfen, it is more than 300 miles from Wenxi to Anyi. Even if I and my party worked tirelessly on the road, they would not be able to make it for five or six days, and we had to hurry.

"The government office is in chaos, so there's no way to judge, but according to what Brother Jiu and I have heard, the people in Yi's County are quite capable of fighting, and the inspections in the county are quite brave, and the local gentry are also quite supportive. So it is estimated that it will last for more than half a month." Feng Jinchang hesitated and said: "But this is under the condition that there are no other accidental factors, because we have limited knowledge of the situation there, and it is really impossible to make an accurate judgment. There can only be a rough estimate."

Baoqin thought about it, and after a long time asked Miaoyu and Xiuyan: "What do you two sisters mean?"

Miaoyu is naturally indispensable, mainly Xiuyan, Xiuyan thought for a while and said: "Silang, what do you think about going from Quwo to Jiangxian, then Yuanqu to cross the Yellow River, and Henan?"

Duan Xipeng and Feng Jinchang exchanged glances. They also thought about this road, but it took time and effort, and the key news they got was that the Henan side was not stable. It is said that the White Lotus Sect started to make troubles along the Yellow River, affecting the Shanxi and Henan.

After hesitating for a moment, Duan Xipeng answered, "We have also considered the route across the Yellow River. The main reason is that the line from Mianchi to Lingbao has always been unsafe. Recently, it has been heard that the White Lotus Sect is causing trouble and resisting taxes on this line, and small groups of mobs continue to ,..."

Upon hearing this, Xiuyan shook her head resolutely: "Then we can't go on this road, just go the same way, you judge that the Yi clan can keep it for more than half a month, but if the Yi clan can't pass Wenxi with us— Hold this section of Anyi, the rebel army will endanger our route, do you have a plan?"

Both Duan Xipeng and Feng Jinchang secretly praised this aunt as a fine person, and nodded: "Also, if the Yi clan is lost before then, we will bypass the post road from Wenxi and go to Xia County, and go around the east of Yanchi. Then go to Jiezhou, if Jiezhou is also lost, we can only go to Ruicheng, and then take Fengling to cross the river to Tongguan, but this road may be more complicated and long, we can only take one step at a time, everything is guaranteed. Safety comes first."

"That doesn't make much sense. We still have to make a big detour. If possible, we have to follow the originally planned route as much as possible." Xing Xiuyan turned his eyes to Xue Baoqin, "What's your sister's opinion?"

Xue Baoqin also hesitated.

Taking the initial route would definitely take considerable risks. Although this large group of people had guards and personal soldiers, they still had little chance of encountering a large group of chaotic troops. Once they fell into the hands of thieves, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But if you don't go this way, where can you go?

She has always been a very strong-tempered person, and seeing everyone looking at her, she made up her mind, "Kuro, Shiro, that's all, the lives of our family will be handed over to you, don't let everyone down trust."

Both Duan Xipeng and Feng Jinchang hurriedly bowed and saluted, even Dao would risk their lives to keep everyone safe.

Duan Xipeng and the others withdrew, and there were only three people left in the hall, and the maid standing behind them.

Bao Qin said faintly: "You two sisters, I don't know whether this decision is a blessing or a disaster. If it falls into the hands of thieves, I will not suffer and live..."

"Sister, don't say such unlucky things. Jiulang and Shiro are not the kind of people who wait for Meng Lang to worry about it. Since they dare to suggest such a thing, they must be somewhat sure." Xiuyan hurriedly said.

"Sister Xiuyan, there are unpredictable things in the sky, people are not as good as the sky, no matter how thoughtful I was before, but sometimes I still can't stand some accidents, let alone me, I always feel that this trip will not be smooth .”

Baoqin's words made Miaoyu and Xiuyan look at each other in blank dismay, which was too unlucky, but it was hard to say anything.

It's just that in such a situation, if you don't leave, what will you do?
When the group packed up and finally headed south, the city of Linfen was a little jittery.

The rebel army succeeded frequently in the southwest, and the defeat of the official army became more and more obvious.

On the other hand, the reinforcements from Shanxi Town in the north moved slowly, and they could not walk more than [-] miles a day, and they kept clamoring for more food and pay, otherwise they would not want to go south.

The situation was getting worse, but there was no turning back at this time, and the group could only speed up and head south.

Along the way, you can meet a continuous stream of fleeing gentry families going north. They all feel that the south is not safe and want to go north to Linfen or even Taiyuan to seek refuge. It is rare for them to go south in such a large group.

Duan Xipeng also kept sending out sentries and scouts to the south to investigate the situation, especially the changes in the battle situation in Jiangzhou and Yi clan, so as to ensure that they could turn around at any time.

What he is most worried about is that he can still turn around now, because he is afraid that he will encounter some accident when he has reached the period between Wenxi and Anyi.

Especially with this group of female relatives, only Xue Baoqin can ride a horse, but Miaoyu and Xiuyan can't even ride a horse, they can only ride a car, not to mention the maids, how can they escape if they encounter an accident?
The consequences of falling into the hands of thieves are even more unimaginable, then they really have nothing to redeem.

While Baoqin and his party were heading south non-stop, Feng Ziying was also nervously watching the situation in the south.

However, the south does not refer to the south of Shanxi, but the counties in the south of Yan'an Prefecture, including several counties in the east of Xi'an Prefecture, where the situation is getting worse.

Of course he didn't know that Baoqin and the others were heading south from Linfen, if they knew, they would definitely stop them.

It's a pity that they are separated by thousands of miles, and the situation changes so quickly that no one can predict it.

"Yaoqing, what's going on here? How come the same officials are surrounded? Isn't the rebel army marching eastward on a large scale? They changed their strategy again? Who is in charge?"

Feng Ziying was very puzzled.

"My lord, this rebellious army is so forbidden like the official army, not to mention that they are divided into dozens of groups, divided into several camps, not affiliated with each other, and even attack each other, but they are all under the banner of the rebellious army, and there is no fight. It’s just too powerful, didn’t Wang Chengwu and the others toss back and forth in Qingjian Yanchuan to fight each other? They all have the same virtue.”

Wu Yaoqing thought it was normal.

"Then do you think Wang Zuogui and Miao Renmei's seduction of Qiu Zixiong going south to bypass Yanchuan to fight Yanchang has something to do with this situation?" Feng Ziying asked.

"It's not easy to say. Wang Zuogui and Miao Renmei's current influence is limited to the area of ​​Yanchang and Yanchuan, and they can't interfere with Hancheng and Baishui. It's just that I really don't understand what Zuoguaizi wants to do."

Wu Yaoqing was also confused, but there was too little information to make a judgment, so Qiu Zixiong had to deal with it himself.

"Then wait a minute and forget about it. As for Jinnan, just pay attention. We can't care so much now." Feng Ziying changed the subject: "Fugu and Shenmu's potatoes, corn, and sweet potato seeds are all distributed. After going down, Qi Suzhen reported that it was relatively smooth. I was not at ease. I planned to send someone to take a look before going to Xi'an. The current situation in Fugu Shenmu is relatively good. It's better with Ganquan, we both made a bet to see whose vision is more accurate."

Fushi and Ganquan belonged to Pan Ruzhen, so he was naturally the most confident. After talking with Qi Suzhen, Feng Ziying felt that this person was useful and capable of execution, so he was optimistic, so he made a bet with Pan Ruzhen to see who was right.

Shenmu is hard to say, Feng Ziying is not very satisfied.

But like Suide and Mizhi, some seeds have also been transported one after another, but the quantity is limited. Wu Degui and Xu Junyang have quite a lot of opinions, thinking that there is a bit of favoritism.

However, there were only so many seeds in the first two batches. Feng Ziying spent some money and specially gave some policies to support Xu Guangqi to expand the cultivation scale in Tianjin Wei. There are so many seeds. Basically all of them have been done. What can be achieved? It will take a few months for such an effect.

"My lord, I think you might lose. Fushi and Ganquan have good foundations, and people are capable. Fugu may be reluctant, but Shenmu is not, so..."

"So what?" Feng Ziying laughed, "Isn't it just right?"
