"What? Hongze sent troops to attack on his own initiative? Almost a thousand people died?" Chen Fuzhong, Through his connections, Pei Geng sent a servant to the Chen Mansion to report the news. At this time, he stood there respectfully and replied: "Yes, Lord Hall Master!" call. Chen Xuan couldn't help but take a breath of cold air at this time. Yesterday, Hongze took the initiative and fought a fierce battle with the rebels 20 kilometers away from the county seat. However, the result was that the defenders were defeated and thousands of people died. "Does he have a pig brain?" Chen Xuan cursed angrily.
At this time, it was difficult to hold on to the county seat, but he took the initiative to attack. His troops were originally small, but now he suffered heavy losses. It’s simply courting death! "I heard that they got the news and wanted to make a surprise attack, so that's why it happened." "Got the news?" "Yes!" After hearing what he said, Chen Xuan's brows knitted together tightly. This was so abnormal. "You go back first. If there is any news, send it to me as soon as possible. Let my father be careful." At this time, Pei Yuenan opened his mouth and gave instructions. After this person leaves, Then she continued to ask: "What do you think?" "It's very wrong. Hong Ze doesn't seem like that kind of brainless person. How many soldiers are there to defend the city? At this time, it is best to rely on the towering city wall." Chen Xuan couldn't understand why he sent troops, and he had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he just couldn't grasp it. "I'm going to the black market. You're in the Chen Mansion. Don't go out." Before he left, the uncle told him that if he had any doubts, he could ask Yuan Lei, and he had asked him for all these things. Ever since the news spread that the rebels were going to attack Yunze County, the black market has been almost shut down. Black city center. Above the pavilion, there were only Chen Xuan, Yuan Lei, and Ning Xian among the three floors. Yuan Lei received the news of the defeat of the city defenders, and he also smelled something fishy. Moreover, before Chen Xuan came, he had discussed it with Ning Xian and came to a result that they least expected. "Be prepared to leave here. It is estimated that Yunze County will fall in just a few days, maybe sooner!"
"Why" Yuan Lei said faintly, and sighed again, his words full of reluctance. This black market has been his lifelong endeavor, and he would definitely not give it up if he had no other choice. But in this situation, it is impossible not to leave. "Has it really come to this, Senior Yuan?" Chen Xuan didn't expect that he would be so sure. Why? "It's very simple. Hong Ze must have a problem." At this time, Ning Xian opened his mouth to explain to him. "What Manager Ning means is..." Chen Xuan's reaction came to his senses immediately, and his expression suddenly changed. This... isn't Hong Ze afraid of death? The imperial court would implicate the nine tribes in this kind of thing. He seemed to know that he was puzzled, so he continued: "If it were Zuo Qiuming, such a thing would definitely not happen, because there is a Zuo family behind him, so he would not dare!" "However, Hongze is different. The two brothers have been dependent on each other since they were young and have climbed all the way to this position. Therefore, it is impossible for them to defend the county seat!" "As long as they can survive, they can do anything! It's that simple!" Compared to Zuo Qiuming, these two brothers didn't have that much consideration at all. Therefore, Chen Xuan nodded in agreement with Ning Xian's analysis. indeed, The two Hongze brothers have no such worries. Is it death to stick to it? Surrender and live! If it were him, he would definitely be the same. As for what will happen next, no one can say for sure, but at least he is alive now. It seems now, He needs to consider what Yuan Lei just said. but So he asked: "Senior Yuan Lei, almost all the roads around the county are controlled by rebels. It's not easy to get out, right?" From beginning to end, Yuan Lei had nothing to worry about except being reluctant to give up. Even Yunze County Po has an indifferent look on his face.
"There are two big ships in the black market. They were prepared a long time ago. I was afraid that one day I would encounter such a situation. I thought I wouldn't use them anymore, haha!" Yuan Lei smiled bitterly, and then continued: "The black market's waterway can directly enter the Changlin River. You can go wherever you want at that time. I will send someone to send a boat to the Chen Mansion later. It's up to you what to do. This is what I promised Chen Xiu. ” "Thank you, Senior Yuan Lei. I will remember this kindness and will definitely repay it if I have the opportunity in the future!" Chen Xuan stood up, bowed deeply and made a big salute. Although it was for the sake of the uncle, he remembered this kindness. After Chen Xuan left, Yuan Lei asked Ning Xian who was standing aside, "Do you want to be with me, or?" "I'll deliver the boat tomorrow." "Hey, do whatever you want!" Returning to the Chen Mansion, Chen Xuan immediately recruited several women. He told them Yuan Lei's guess, and then ordered a few people to clean up and leave in the next few days. As for where to leave here, he hasn't decided yet. At this time, others had left the hall, but Pei Yuenan did not move. "Husband, what should I do with my father?" At this time, she was completely panicked and looked worried. If that were the case, then staying in the county would be like waiting for death. The first people to bear the brunt of the rebel army's destruction of the city were big families like the Pei family, while ordinary people would be very safe. In order to win over people's hearts, the rebel army even distributed food from big families to ordinary families. For this reason, the rebels' prestige is now growing day by day. Some places are eager for the rebels to attack the city as soon as possible, which is why families of all sizes are anxious to leave the city. "Send someone to deliver a message to inform your father that at midnight tomorrow, no matter what means he uses, he will come out of the south gate. I will go there to pick them up. There is only one chance. Do you understand?" Pei Geng had arranged that he could send someone to deliver the letter to the southern garrison, but it would have to be late at night. Only in the latter half of the night would he be one of his own, but he could only go alone. Seeing Pei Yuenan leaving the hall in a panic, Chen Xuan also sighed. There was only so much he could do. It was impossible for him to risk entering the city now. If he couldn't get out, it would be the end. He is responsible for several of his women. late at night! In a wing of the Pei family. He held the news from Pei Yuenan in his hand.
"Is it really going to come to this?" Muttering to himself. The Pei family has been standing in Yunze County for so many years, and now it will be destroyed in his hands. This gives him no face to meet the ancestors of the Pei family in the future. Not willing to give in. He sat there with his eyes closed, and after a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes. Walk! Must go! As Pei Yuenan said, if you stay, you will die. After escaping, there might be a chance to rebuild the Pei family. Keep the green hills and don’t worry about running out of firewood! The second day. Ning Xian unexpectedly appeared in Chen's house. The first thing he said when he saw Chen Xuan was, 'Master Chen Xuan, I don't know if you will accept me or not'? He didn't expect it at all, Ning Xian did not choose to leave with Yuan Lei, but followed him. certainly, Although he was doubtful, he was certainly happy to have a fifth-grade warrior join him. And just in time, I have a helper tonight. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for him to do it alone. Soon it was late at night. The bright moon was bright, the moon was bright, the stars were sparse, and the peaceful Yunze County suddenly became chaotic. Fire broke out in one place after another. In just a few moments, there were hundreds of fires. "Come here, there's a fire." "Someone come quickly." "Help. Help." Suddenly, the entire Yunze County was in chaos.
The news soon reached Hong Ze's ears. "Quickly send someone to put out the fire! Also ask the government officials to maintain order, and ask the city defenders to send some as well! Hurry!" Hong Ze's face was ashen. Don't think it's someone causing trouble. Create a disturbance. That is? "Hong Ming!" shouted loudly. A moment later, Hong Ming appeared in the room, "You go to the south gate and take charge. Someone may want to escape from the city tonight!" "What about the east gate?" "I'll go there myself!" After saying that, Hong Ze stood up with murderous intent. He wanted to see who had eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard. Want to escape? dream! He agreed to go there. It doesn't matter to ordinary people, but no one from these big families wants to go out. At this time, the Pei family! "Dad, everything is in order. Now the county is in chaos. Not only the government officials, but also the city guards have come a lot." "Have you brought all your things?" Pei Geng asked in confirmation. "I've brought it all, don't worry." "Well, let's go!" The two of them quickly changed into servant clothes, made a simple appearance, and left quietly through the back door of Pei's house, no different from ordinary people. "Don't mess around, get water and put out the fire." "Master, go and save my wife, she is still inside." "roll!" The entire Yunze County has become a mess. Pei Geng and Pei Hu mingled among the crowd, lowered their heads, and walked towards the south gate. Along the way, they met the government officials who asked them, and the two of them immediately cried and complained that their home was gone and everything was burned down. Sir, please go put out the fire. but, Every time I was pushed away by these government officials.
"It's such a big fire, I'm desperate for my life, I'm going to help you save Madhu!" In about half an hour, the two of them arrived at a place a thousand meters away from the south gate, crouching. Pei Geng observed the situation at the city gate. The city gate is closed. However, he was not anxious and looked up at the moon in the sky. The time has not come yet. He arranged for people to open the gate of the city at midnight. If everything goes well, the two of them will leave here and head to Chen's mansion. So, now the two of them can only wait. After a long time, suddenly, a dull sound sounded. After hearing this voice, Pei Geng quickly looked in the direction of the city gate. "Go! Quick!" Pulling Pei Hu behind him, the energy in the acupuncture points in his body exploded instantly. He was now using all his strength at his speed. The city gate, thousands of meters away, arrived in the blink of an eye. at this time, Pei Geng also breathed a sigh of relief. After passing the door, Chen Xuan was waiting for him over there. It will be safe then. Sudden! Just when he was ten meters away from the gap, a figure appeared. "Pei Geng, go back! This road is blocked!" It turned out to be Chen Fangyuan. "Get away!" Although he was shocked in his heart, Pei Geng couldn't think about that much anymore and shouted loudly. "Bold, the county magistrate has ordered not to leave the city and to fight the rebels to the death. As the head of the Pei family, you dare to escape late at night. It seems you don't want to live anymore." Just then, another figure appeared behind him. It was Hong Ming!
