Governor Zhu Yue frowned as he read the news sent from Heyang County.
According to the habit of the governor, after receiving the news from the people coming from Heyang County, these people under the governor sorted out all the news, summarized it and reported to the governor.
Therefore, the news received by the governor is from three aspects:
Shanqian County was lost, Chu La was killed in battle, and his soldiers were captured.
Most of the 5,000 reinforcements from Beihai County were killed and wounded, and the soldier Cao was killed in battle.
The thieves in Heyang County appeared with powerful unknown weapons. There was fire and loud noises, which could scatter flying stones and blast open city gates.
There is not much news though.
But it contains too much content.
Chu La actually died.
Such a cautious person was actually defeated by the bandits despite uniting with Beihai County.
This Zhang Bao seems to have underestimated him after all.
Moreover, Ge Hong only sent 5,000 men and horses to assist a mountain county, which seemed to be quite ambitious.
But these 5,000 troops, plus Chu La's troops before, were close to 10,000, but they were still defeated.
How is it done?
The governor rubbed his eyebrows and couldn't figure it out.
If you give yourself time to operate, you may be able to do it, but Zhang Bao doesn't have so much time, so he still resists head-on. It's really incredible.
Right!
A powerful unknown weapon appeared in Heyang County, and it was able to blast open the city gate?
No wonder Zhang Bao dared to cause trouble, he was really a talented person. Counting this, I am afraid that the entire Heyang County has fallen into Zhang Bao's hands.
Zhu Yue thought about it and shook his head helplessly.
"Sir, what's wrong?"
"What happened again in Heyang County?"
Sun San asked from the side.
During this period, although there were constant disturbances in other parts of Hezhou, they were nothing more than minor disturbances.
It's in Heyang County that things happen every now and then.
"Take a look."
"Old Twelve is dead."
Zhu Yue handed over the message in his hand.
"What?!"
Sun San was shocked.
I quickly took the message and read it.
"Sir, how is this possible?"
"This man named Zhang Bao has almost as many men and horses as Lao Twelve. How could he kill so many people?"
"These losers are talking nonsense again!"
"What kind of unknown weapons are there? It's just an excuse!"
Sun San looked in disbelief.
"Third brother, if you are careless, you will suffer a loss."
"We have not experienced many things personally, so we must know how to trust others and try to think of the worst possibility first."
"This will make things safe."
"As for the mysterious weapon mentioned above, I can't help but believe it. After all, this Zhang Bao has already given us a lot of surprises."
Zhu Yue said to Sun San.
Sun San nodded reluctantly.
"Report!"
"grown ups!"
"Urgent message from the state capital!"
While the two were talking, another fast horse galloped towards them.
"What's going on?"
"Bad things all come together."
Zhu Yue smiled faintly and took the letter.
"What?!"
"Run away?!"
Zhu Yue unfolded the message and immediately stood up in shock.
He looked very panicked.
There was no such reaction even after hearing the news of Chu La's death.
"Sir, what's wrong?"
Seeing Zhu Yue's panicked look, Sun San was also startled.
"Sun San, you immediately take a team of people to Mao'er Cave first, and then start from Mao'er Cave and search southward. Even if you chase them to the end of the world, you must bring them back to me!"
"Break his legs and save his life. He will still be useful!"
"Go quickly!"
Zhu Yue said to Sun San anxiously.
When Sun San heard the word "cat's ear piercing", he was also stunned.
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, he even forgot to say hello and ran away directly.
"Bring me the map."
Seeing Sun San running out, Zhu Yue took a deep breath and then slowly calmed down.
Look in front of the map.
Going south from Mao'er Cave, it's either Zhonggu or Heyang. Zhonggu County was my people before. As for Heyang County, it stands to reason that he shouldn't know about Chen Dadao.
Could it be that he wants to go to Heyang County to find Chen Dadao?
This is possible!
If Chu La was here, everything would not be a problem, but now it is difficult.
This Chu La really succeeds more than fails!
Employing nepotism has many disadvantages.
Could it be that someone deliberately arranged these events one after another?
Behind this, it really seems like an invisible hand is adding fuel to the flames.
The last time I went to Heyang County, it was a safe journey... It doesn't seem like that.
When I was at the Sanhe County Yamen, I almost fell to death!
Could it be said that the ice on the road that time was not an accident?
Zhu Yue couldn't help but feel frightened when he thought of this. If this was really the case, then he had indeed underestimated Zhang Bao from Sanhe County before.
It's really interesting.
Zhu Yue smiled.
"Call Zhao Da over here."
Zhu Yue opened the curtain and said to the person next to him.
…
Beihai County.
"You damn ghost!"
"You promised to love me for the rest of your life, but now!"
"You haven't entered my room for half a month. Don't think that I don't know what evil things you have done behind my back!"
"If you dare to abandon me, I will make you die badly!"
"There's that vixen here, please come out!"
"See if I don't beat you to death!"
Ge Hong's former most favored concubine was currently shouting and cursing in Ge Hong's yard with her hands on her hips and a look of grief and indignation.
Ever since that day when Ge Hong saw a fat woman on the road, this soul seemed to have been ticked away.
Through slander and frame-up, he successfully put the woman in charge of the family in jail.
It was a matter of course that I captured this woman.
Playing and singing every night, naturally focusing on one thing and not that.
How did the concubine who was favored before get such anger?
People abandon their wives because they change with age.
But I was attracted by you when I was older, and there is no change at all between now and then, so you abandoned her.
You have to give me an explanation!
My brother died without knowing it, and he has not yet explained it, and now he wants to abandon me!
I don't live anymore!
Ge Hong in the room was comforting the crying woman.
"Master, I don't live anymore!"
"My innocence has been thrown out by her. How will I behave in the future?"
"Sir, just let me die!"
The woman hugged Ge Hong's thigh for dear life.
The sound of the two old ladies crying was so loud that it shook the heavens and the earth.
For those who didn’t know, I thought someone in this family had died.
"grown ups!"
"It's not good!"
"Something happened in Heyang County!"
Among the cries and cries, a voice shouted out very suddenly.
Then a person ran in.
I was stunned as soon as I walked in.
In the yard, a fat wife put her hands on her hips, pointed at the sky and cursed the earth, howling.
Inside the house, there were bursts of cries of people who were about to hang themselves.
It's more lively than a big show.
The man was immediately stunned.
However, the concubine outside reacted quickly and snatched the message from the man's hand.
