Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Fourth Through Thieves
At the south gate of Gaoyou City, looking at the seriously injured person on the carriage, Chen Dajiang, a native of Fu'an, suddenly sank.
Lu Si's nephew, his cousin, was also a little panicked and pulled the person who sent the wounded back to ask what was going on.
"Two Mr. Chen, we met the officers and soldiers in the south of Huangzhuang. There were many people, and they were afraid there would be tens of thousands of people..." The one who sent the wounded was Shi San, a farmer from Wushao, who was not far from Captain Chen's house. Because he worked for the landlord Qian's family, he would drive a car.
"There are officers and soldiers, there are tens of thousands of people!" Chen Dajiang was so shocked that he didn't close his mouth for a long time.
"Is there anything wrong with Lu Wenzong?"
Colonel Chen only wanted to know whether the cousin who led them to kill the defeated soldiers by the canal, captured Huai'an City, and became the leader of the Huai Army's southern route army.
"Mr. Chen, Chief Lu is fine! We fought a battle with the officers and soldiers under the leadership of Chief Lu. The damn thing was that we had to break up, but,"
Shi San looked at the wounded people who were lying on the carriage, motionless or murmured with pain, and whispered: "Although we won the officers and soldiers, we also lost a lot of people. These brothers were seriously injured. Leader Lu ordered them to be sent back to Gaoyou no matter what, and asked the two Mr. Chen to find the city doctor to treat them."
"Okay, okay, I'll ask someone to invite all the doctors in the city!"
When he heard that his cousin was still alive, Colonel Chen was convinced and quickly gave instructions to the people behind him, and someone immediately rushed to find the doctor.
"So, were the officers and soldiers defeated?" Chen Dajiang also came to his senses.
Shi San said that the official army was defeated, but they still had many troops. When Leader Lu asked the seriously injured to send back the seriously injured, the brothers of the Huai Army were rushing to rest.
"There are many officers and soldiers, and they will definitely not give up after suffering losses. So Leader Lu asked us to send the injured brothers back first, otherwise we would not care about these brothers when we fight..." Shi Sanjian said importantly.
Colonel Chen couldn't help but nodded and asked anxiously: "Did Emperor Wen ask me to bring reinforcements?"
Shi San shook his head and said, "No, Leader Lu only said that he would ask the two Master Chen to guard Gaoyou City, and ask the two to send someone to inform Baoying's Little Leader Lu and the Cao team's Xie Yingguan."
Speaking of this, Shi San thought of something and hurriedly said, "Captain Lu said that if he unfortunately died in battle, he would ask the head leader Xiao Lu to lead everyone to continue working with the officers and soldiers. If he had the chance in the future, he would ask the head leader Xiao Lu to go..."
Speaking of this, Shi San's nose felt sore, and he couldn't continue to say it.
Leader Lu said these words, which made people feel like the last words.
"What are you going, you said!" Colonel Chen was anxious.
Shi San sadly told Erchen what Lu Si said to the seriously injured. The other men who drove the train and the seriously injured who were still conscious in the car also looked sad.
"No, I have to bring people to support Wenzong!"
Colonel Chen is an impatient person. His cousin even gave his last words. How could his cousin stay in Gaoyou?
Chen Dajiang grabbed him and said, "Colonel, you can't go!"
"how?"
"Our top priority is to save people and guard this Gaoyou City!"
"Then don't care whether Wenzong and the others are alive?"
"It's not that we don't care about it now. If you really want to go, you have to wait for Brother Xie and the others to come over!"
Chen Dajiang was telling the truth. He and Colonel Chen had only a thousand people. This manpower not only monitored the officials and gentry in the city, but also monitored the village soldiers and fire soldiers who were recruited by them, and how could they have the ability to reinforce the people advancing south.
"Master Chen, you can't even go now. Leader Lu repeatedly told me that the two Master Chen and the official Xie camp and others should work together to protect Gaoyou City, otherwise, it would be completely over!"
Shi San was also persuading that they came back from the south of Huangzhuang yesterday. It was a day after that. Where could Colonel Chen take people there now?
"well!"
Colonel Chen was really anxious, but he knew that Chen Dajiang and Shi San were right. It was too late for him to go now! If he really wanted to share his worries for his cousin and to think about the future of the Huai Army, he could only organize people to defend Gaoyou City immediately. Otherwise, the officers and soldiers would attack all the way. Not to mention that the Southern Army would be wiped out, the Northern Army in Huai'an would also be finished.
After calming down, they summoned two brothers who could ride horses and asked them to go to the Cao team and Baoying City to report the news, and also asked Shi San and others to transport the seriously injured into the city.
"Col. So many wounded people have entered the city, the news must be leaked, if so,"
Chen Dajiang was worried that once the officials and gentry in the city knew that the Huai Army and the Ming Army had suffered heavy losses, it was difficult to guarantee that these officials and gentry would not be ready to move, which would be detrimental to the Huai Army.
Chen Dajiang meant to block the news, and placed the seriously injured in the area of the South Gate, and imprisoned all the doctors who treated them.
Colonel Chen glanced at the city and shook his head and said, "Someone has seen it."
Chen Dajiang followed him to the city and was helpless.
Not only the Huai Army guarding the city were the Huai Army, but also hundreds of fire soldiers, village soldiers and some yamen officers from the former Gaoyouzhou City that were forcibly incorporated by the Huai Army. They must have seen this scene under the city. If nothing unexpected happens, the entire Gaoyou City will know what is happening here.

"Mr. He, good news!"
He Chuan, who was handling government affairs in the state yamen public housing, was alarmed by the anxious voice of Tongzhi Qian Dalang.
“What good news?”
Looking at Qian Dalang, who didn't even want any official etiquette, He Chuan was really surprised.
Qian Dalang did not say it immediately, but looked outside, took the door up to Hechuan before walking, and lowered his voice: "There is a letter from the south gate. The Yangzhou official army has fought. The thieves seem to have suffered a great loss and many people have been injured. If the news is true, Mr. He, we will be saved!"
"oh?!"
He Chuan jumped and stood up excitedly.
"Mr. He, you and I are all forced by the thieves, and they are involuntarily. The court may not know your hardships. Now that the official army is coming, Mr. He, you and I have to do something, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with in the future." Qian Dalang's voice was low, but his expression was excited. Although the meaning of the words was not clearly stated, how could He Chuan not hear it.
It was also very intentional at the moment, but for some reason, he suddenly sat down helplessly after a moment.

This surprised Qian Dalang very much and couldn't help but ask: "His man?"
"Don't do it randomly,"
He Chuan sighed, looked at Qian Dalang and said slowly: "I know your thoughts, but now no one in the city wants to listen to you and me."
The Luo family, a few miles away, Luo Yongnian said to his wife almost the same as He Zhizhou. He should not do anything randomly, otherwise he would be afraid that his baby daughter would never return to them.
News that was unfavorable to the Huai Army had long been spreading in the city. Qian Dalang, who came out of the prefect of the state and returned to his magistrate, was very unwilling to accept it, but after sitting in the hall and waiting, no one came to "reach" with him, the magistrate.
Why?
Until dawn, Qian Dalang could not figure it out.
Perhaps, the former doctor of the Ministry of Justice who retired in the village, who was angry at the revenge of his second son and others, would make him understand the reason.
