Outside Changji County, Feifu did not leave, but waited for news about Wuzhou's suppression of the rebellion.

"General Fei, I asked. Cai Meng, with an army of more than 10,000 people, is still suppressing the rebellion in the fishing village and has not returned."

Feif frowned, "Didn't you say there are less than a thousand rebels?"

"Indeed, but it seems that he hid in the mangrove swamp. Due to the terrain, there are many fish that slipped through the net. And... I also heard rumors that Cai Meng seemed to have killed many sea people and pretended to be a traitor. number."

"This damn thing!" Feifu was furious, "What is he going to do, for the sake of military glory, regardless of everything? I have advised the lord before that people like Cai Meng, with a vicious temperament, should not sit in Wuzhou, but the lord On the grounds of Cai Meng’s military exploits, he just refused to listen to my advice.”

"I knew it earlier. It is for this reason that he has been holding on to the official salt matter and humiliating me."

After a pause, Feif suddenly thought of something, and his face changed drastically.

"You mean, Cai Meng has been in the fishing village for two or three days?"

"General Fei, exactly."

"No, this traitor is not a fool. Why does he insist on escaping into the swamp? Come on, follow me into the city. I want to ask the red feather scouts to let Cai Meng return to the army quickly!"

"General, what's wrong..."

"The rebels with less than a thousand people are probably just a cover!"

Without any time to say anything, Feifu looked anxious and hurried to Changji City with dozens of people. Unfortunately, when they reached the city gate, they were still blocked outside the city.

"Let me see Wuzhou Shenzhi!"

A small captain guarding the city hesitated for a while, but finally did not let him go.

"General Fei, don't try to embarrass us. There is a message from above that General Fei is not allowed to enter the city. Just wait outside the city."

"There may be disaster in Wuzhou, can you afford it?" Fefu said in an excited tone. That Cai Meng only knows how to kill people and take credit, and he can't see through this plan of attacking the east and attacking the west.

"I can afford it!"

Hearing the sound, Fife looked up in shock, only to find a pot-bellied scribe sneering at him from the tower.

"General Fei, I heard that there is a rebellion on the front line. Are you thinking of grabbing military glory?"

"There is no such intention." Fife gritted his teeth, "Please also ask Shenzhi to send a fast horse quickly and send a message to General Cai Meng, saying that this rebel army of less than a thousand people is probably a trap."

"Okay, okay, how about I send out a thousand red-feathered scouts? Is General Fei satisfied?"

The entire city tower burst into laughter. Near the city gate, many county soldiers were also whispering.

Fifton stood where he was, a feeling of sadness welling up in his chest. For Dongling, he did his best.

"General Fei, you led troops into the city. People who don't know better think you are the rebel." The shenzhi smiled even more cheerfully, and in his words, he did not take Fefu seriously.

"General, let's go." The cronies around him were extremely angry and couldn't bear the humiliation of their general.

Feife gritted his teeth, pushed away his cronies, and suddenly knelt down, holding his hands in the sky.

"Information, I, Feifu, would like to vouch for my reputation. This rebellion will definitely have consequences! Please also send a fast horse quickly and let General Cai Meng return to support Changji County!"

"General Fei, don't kneel down. If you kneel down, others will think you are fulfilling your filial piety." Fat Shenzhi still sneered, "Come back, General Fei, don't think about the military merit of counterinsurgency. You can't ask for it." Arrived."

After saying that, Fat Shen no longer felt interested, so he turned around and walked down the tower.

Fife stood up in despair, swaying.

"General, general." The guards around him hurriedly supported him.

"Wait for a few people, one by one, and rush to the coastal fishing village in the east as fast as possible. Tell General Cai Meng about the rebellion. I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future."

"General, the camp we are waiting for is full of thin and old horses. The horse commander in Lingzhou is already in many difficulties."

"If Ma dies, wait for a few people, even on foot, to find a way to inform General Cai Meng." Feifu's voice trembled, "The fighting on the front line is tense, but there is another rebellion in Wuzhou. This matter... is not that big Simple."

"If it's too late, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe."



A prophecy.

As Feifei said, just the next day, another rebellion broke out in a large town less than 200 miles away from Changji County, and it was huge. I heard that many sea people have joined this rebellion.

"General Fei, the rebels burned down the arsenal, killed the county soldiers, and then continued southward... Now, including the rebellious sea people, there are nearly ten thousand people."

Fife closed his eyes in pain. After all, it was too late, everything was too late. And Hai Min... Cai Meng had been in Wuzhou for a long time, but he kept bullying Hai Min, which led to today's disaster. But a spark seemed to vaguely set many things on fire at once.

You know, the three states of Dongling are now very empty due to the deployment of troops to the front line. And Feifu didn't understand how these people entered Wuzhou. Above the river, there are always navy patrols.

"General, something bad has happened!" At this time, outside the camp, another horseman hurriedly came back.

"What?"

"The counselor of Changji County has slandered the general and colluded with the rebels. He has gathered many soldiers from the county and is coming to kill him!"

"These dogmen!"

Fife clenched his fists. He understood that whether it was Cai Meng or the officials of Changji County, he would definitely be blamed for this incident.

"General, leave quickly. When Cai Meng comes back, we will die unjustly! It doesn't make sense!"

"I, Feifu, am devoted to Dongling, why am I in this situation today!"

"That's why."



Bang.

Three or four days later, outside Chenshui Pass, Xu Mu's body trembled and he completely overturned the wooden stake in front of him.

"Cao Hong, what is the name of that loyal and brave captain?"

"Shi Dayi. In order to buy time for Lu Xiong, he delayed Wuzhou Cai Meng's army of more than 10,000 people for several days... 639 people were almost killed, and those who were seriously injured but still had strength were not taken prisoners. , committed suicide."

"What a great Shi Dayi." Xu Mu sighed. As early as when he laid out this game, he had already understood that Lu Xiong's troops had become a lone army, a lone army with a narrow escape from death.

But there is no way, this is war. Just like the many loyal and brave people buried in Qishili Tomb Mountain, only if the soldiers are not afraid of death can there be peace in the new dynasty.

"Cao Hong, can I still cross the river?"

Cao Hong thought for a moment and said, "My lord, with the Wuzhou rebellion in full swing, the patrols on the river have become even tighter. If I want to cross the river, I will need to take a long detour, which will take some time."

"Go, find Lu Xiong and tell him that as soon as the fire breaks out, take cover immediately and don't make unnecessary sacrifices. After defeating Dongling, I still need them to follow me to conquer the country. As for Cai Meng, this man tortured and killed my loyal and brave people in Xishu. Sooner or later, I will cut him alive."

"Don't worry, my lord." Cao Hong held up his hands and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute, let me tell you one more thing. If you meet the pro-Shu faction in Dongling, the best thing to do is win over them."

"I would like to be the Lord's eyes and ears."

Cao Hong nodded again, activated his Qing Gong, and suddenly disappeared from sight.

Standing where he was, Xu Mu raised his head and looked at the outline of Chen Shuiguan in front of him. This gate seemed to be crumbling after the fire in the backyard.
