Chapter 3 The Shovel Project
The second batch of the ships asking for help came back were His Royal Highness Li Congqian, accompanied by Feng Jingyun, Lin Renzhao and Chen Desheng.
While they met with the brothers Ma Xi'e and Ma Xiguang, because Li Congqian was crying and unable to speak, Feng Jingyun and the other two cried and gestured, telling the story of Lin Feng and Liu Renshan's defeat on the battlefield. In their mouths, the total number of soldiers in the Southern Han increased to 60,000.
Of course, the first half of the Guizhou War they talked about was the same as the truth, but from the raid of the Southern Han cavalry and elephant soldiers, the situation on the battlefield tilted towards the Southern Han side. In the end, the overall defeat was defeated. Lin Feng and Liu Renshan, who refused to retreat, were unfortunately killed in battle.
Ma Xi'e and Ma Xiguang were relieved when they saw that Li Congqian was indeed fine. However, under the urging of Li Congqian, Feng Jingyun and others, the action of forcing donations to arrest Ding in Tanzhou City was escalating in vain.
At the same time, the 1,000 Tang soldiers who had been stationed in Yutan City were immediately transferred back to the east military camp of Tanzhou City to guard His Royal Highness Jiu. Previously, the rebellion between Chenzhou Governor Liu Yan and Pan Long was indeed a false news released, so the 1,000 Tang soldiers who stayed stayed in Yutan and never moved their nests.
The third thug came to ask for help with the ship, basically all the Tang Dynasty special soldiers, but only a deputy commander of the Tang Dynasty Wuchang Army showed up and submitted a blood letter to the Ma brothers on behalf of the Wuchang Army.
At the end of the 24th, all the twenty special soldiers who returned gathered in Huang Zongwang's study. The so-called outsider was only one military advisor Xi Mucheng and the richest man Huang Zongwang.
Huang Zongwang looked at Zhou Qizhi and Yan Ruoli and other familiar faces in disbelief, and was the first to ask: "Has the Battle of Guizhou really won? Lord Lin, is Lord Liu really okay? Why are there rumors in the army and the city on the front line defeated? I am always uneasy!"
Zhou Qizhi smiled and pointed at Huang Zongwang and said, "Mr. Huang, this is the third time you have asked the same question today! Of course we won. If something really happened to Lord Lin, do you think we would live alone?"
Huang Zongwang nodded, but his expression was still a little worried.
Feng Jingyun stood up and walked to Huang Zongwang, stared at him and said in a cold voice: "Mr. Huang, have you thought it clearly?"
Huang Zongwang looked at Feng Jingyun's ferocious face and was startled. He immediately stood up and said, "I have thought it through a long time ago! I am willing to lead the whole family to surrender to the Tang Dynasty and follow Lord Lin to the death!"
Xi Mucheng next to him chuckled softly and said, "I can swear that I can send you, but I will never need to die! Following Lord Lin will only lead to better life and can also take Mr. Huang's business to a higher level!
General Feng, don’t worry. Mr. Huang has been recruiting nearly 500 martial arts masters for us in recent years, and has proved that Mr. Huang is very credible with practical actions."
Feng Jingyun nodded, walked back to his seat and sat down. He obtained a letter with Lin Feng's private seal from his arms. After showing it to everyone, he said softly: "Mr. Lin wrote the handwritten order, the 'Shuttle Plan' is officially implemented. The previous stage will be the responsibility of Lord Lin Renzhao and I, and the next stage will be the responsibility of Lord Lin!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire study immediately became stern, and everyone stood up straight and stared at Feng Jingyun.
Feng Jingyun sat there quietly, tapping his fingers on the table, and said with a serious face: "This plan involves my Tang Dynasty, Your Highness Ninth, and Lord Lin's reputation and reputation, so confidentiality is the first priority! The specific plan is only for everyone here to know. If anyone dares to reveal it, they will be punished for treason and treason."
Many special forces soldiers looked even more serious. Treason and the two charges of the rebel team were all dead!
Feng Jingyun turned to Zhou Qizhi and asked: "Have the brothers sent to Chenzhou set out?"
"Before leaving, Zhao Ye personally selected two loyalists from the Tujia clan in Xizhou. They had already traveled back to Chenzhou this morning to inform Panlong of our failure!" Zhou Qizhi replied.
"Very good!" Feng Jingyun turned to Xi Mucheng and asked, "Can the recruited experts be in place? How to place them on a daily basis?"
"There are 480 people in place, and all daily activities are limited to Huangfufu Fort and have never gone out." Xi Mucheng replied immediately.
Huang Zongwang immediately added later: "This recruitment is all recruited by the public in the name of the Huang Mansion. Due to the large number of people, all the experts from the surrounding states have been absorbed, but their reputation is still acceptable."
Feng Jingyun nodded and turned to Lin Renzhao who had not spoken, asking Lin Huzi to continue to "host".
After the bloody battle at the city of Guizhou, Lin Renzhao's murderous aura became even heavier. He sat there without saying anything, which made people feel that there was invisible pressure coming.
"Liu Qi, have the three boatmen on the boat asking for help be properly placed?" Lin Renzhao asked.
Liu Qi quickly replied: "Each person has received five stagnant of money, and has invited all of them to our own warships. After the plan is over, they will be put back. Fang Hongtian has arranged for his own people to accept the three ships."
"Are the weapons, Chu military uniforms and casual clothes ready?" Lin Renzhao asked Zhou Qili again.
"There are at least 3,000 sets of various weapons in the East Gate camp; we brought back two thousand Chu military uniforms from Guizhou with the ship, and all of them have been moved to the East Gate camp in the name of weapons; there are now 500 sets of casual clothes in the Huangfu, and the amount is not enough to be collected in one day." Zhou Qili replied.
Lin Renzhao nodded and asked again: "Who will contact Zhang Longxing and others?"
Xi Mucheng stood up and said, "Let me come forward. I have seen many people in the city. I can do this for many such actions."
Afterwards, Lin Renzhao and Feng Jingyun buried their heads and discussed for a while, and explained several other details, they finally ordered anyone not to step out of the Huang Mansion without orders, and then announced the end of the meeting.
At midnight, Xi Mucheng, accompanied by Zhou Qizhi, found Zhang Longxing's mansion. The seemingly dilapidated Zhang's mansion was too lazy to close the door. The two of them pushed the door and entered directly and closed the door.
In the study, a tiny candle was shaking, and two people who were sick and sympathetic, Zhang Longxing and Yuan Weihu were drinking together under the candlelight and drinking together in a pot of turbid wine.
"I hate it. It would be great if I had tried my best to enter the elite troops of Chu and Tang. Even if I followed Lord Lin to death on the battlefield, it would be better than the insults of those bitches again!" Zhang Longxing finished a glass of wine and complained to Yuan Weihu again.
"That's right, those soldiers who came to the door had another ten thousand guan. If they couldn't pay it, they would be exiled to Guizhou. Could it be that our money fell from the world and the strong wind blew? There was no way to pass this day!" Yuan Weihu was also angry. Last time, the Yuan Mansion was exposed to Zhang Longxing's light on getting to know Lin Feng, and successfully avoided a forced donation. This time, Lin Feng was gone, and even rumored that he had already died in Guizhou in battle. Naturally, there would be no good thing of "signing and exempting the bill". The two of them suddenly felt that the sky was about to collapse.
"Mr. Lin is not dead!" Zhou Qizhi, who had listened at the door for a while, spoke gently and walked into the house with Xi Mucheng one after another. This sentence surprised Zhang and Yuan and the others first, then stood up in surprise and greeted them.
