Chapter 145: Pursuit

Su Qingmei was very uneasy. Read М

She walked around the camp to see what the situation was like. If no one had a sense of crisis, she would make some other plans.

After walking for a while, she ran into Huang Shenzhi.

Huang Shenzhi saw that she was walking alone without her son. His face looked heavy and his brows were furrowed tightly. After thinking for a while, he walked towards her.

"What's wrong?"

Su Qingmei was thinking while walking with her head down. When she heard the voice, she turned her head to see... Seeing that it was Huang Shenzhi, she asked him directly: "Are you planning to stay in Renzhou?"

Huang Shenzhi was stunned and shook his head: "I don't know. But I want to go south."

"You want to go south?" Su Qingmei looked at him steadily and said, "Can you decide?"

Huang Shenzhi didn't look at her either, just looked ahead: "No."

Su Qingmei fell silent.

Huang Shenzhi saw that she didn't speak, thought for a moment, and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will inform you if there is anything."

Su Qing'an didn't speak, just glanced at his face, nodded at him, and turned back to her own tent.

She was worried for a few days, and sure enough, something happened.

That morning, Huang Shenzhi hurried to inform her, asking her to pack her luggage immediately, and the team had to move out of camp immediately.

Su Qing'an heard it and hurriedly asked the Su family to dismantle the tent and pack their luggage. The Su family was in a mess... Before they had packed up, the sentry blew the whistle, asking the men to prepare for battle, and the women and children to evacuate south first.

The cause of this disaster can only be said to be Huang Xu's coquettish operation and the fact that his people were too high-profile.

How many people saw that Renzhou was captured without a single soldier, and the materials were confiscated, soldiers were recruited, and the resources of a city were obtained. They were jealous. Wouldn't it be better to be low-key and secretly expand the team?

But Huang Xu was so good. As soon as he entered the city, he was blinded by the splendor of the governor's mansion. The women and children in the family had eaten dirt and been blown by the wind and dust all the way. After entering the mansion, they didn't want to leave. Huang Xu was also immersed in the gentle countryside every day.

If you want to be stationed in Renzhou City, then you can be stationed, but at least you should be more motivated, do some construction, develop the local economy, etc. As for the soldiers, they can be pulled up to train their muscles, military posture, combat capabilities, etc. every day, and then send soldiers to guard the city and maintain order, right?

But there was nothing.

They just stared at the small restaurants and taverns in the city and asked them when they would open. The small restaurants were open, the taverns were crowded, and then the brothels were opened, and the casinos were open all night.

When have a group of poor soldiers ever seen such a scene?

Sensuality and debauchery are the most corrupting.

However, you can't be too demanding. Since ancient times, people who wield swords and guns are really difficult to get involved in politics and economy.

Huang Xu's men were not very capable. Now, they were being targeted but they didn't know it.

The green forest heroes around Renzhou couldn't stand it. Why can you, a poor soldier guarding the border, take a city? And I'm still eating dirt? So a bunch of heroes gathered together to discuss and planned to join forces to take Renzhou first and then divide the spoils.

For a time, many heroes in Jiangxi gathered in Renzhou.

The action was too big, and even Yang Bi, the governor of Jiangxi, was alarmed.

Speaking of Yang Bi, the governor of Jiangxi, he didn't have much ambition. He planned to stay in the southwest and live a warm life with his wife and children. The Central Plains was in dire straits, and the war was raging. It was far away from Jiangxi. No matter how many troops were dispatched, they could not be transferred to Jiangxi.

Yang Bi was watching the show in his backyard with his concubine in his arms. Dogs bit dogs, this one dispatched troops, that one was appointed as Jiedushi, Guanchaoshi, Jinglüeshi, etc., it had nothing to do with him.

It's just that you, the governor of Renzhou, are too incompetent, aren't you?

I handed over a good Renzhou to you, and you threw down the military seal and ran away? You dare to come to me? A good Renzhou city, just, handed it over?

Yang Bi, the governor, was so angry that he was choked up, but he couldn't drive the governor's family away, after all, they were his own people.

Renzhou is also his territory. If Huang Xu is more capable than the original governor, it's not impossible to give Renzhou to him, anyway, it's meat in his hands.

Huang Xu, I haven't heard of any military achievements. What does this man want to do by taking Renzhou?

If he is a good person, Yang Bi plans to gather him under his own door. It doesn't matter if the governor is replaced by someone else, anyway, they are all his family.

But, why are a bunch of green forest heroes rushing to Renzhou? Want to divide Renzhou?

Do you think I, the governor of Jiangxi, am dead?

I'm not dead yet! Furious.

Yang Bi waited and watched for a few days. Seeing that Huang Xu did not surrender to him, nor did he send anyone to show his courtesy, he also made a lot of moves in Renzhou City, which attracted a lot of people to covet him and wanted to share the meat.

How could he tolerate this!

Lord Yang Bi, the governor of Jiangxi, immediately gathered troops from all over the country and marched to Renzhou. Yang Bi did not take the so-called heroes and heroes surrounding Renzhou seriously, and only focused on dealing with Huang Xu.

On the other hand, Huang Xu was able to win over a team of 10,000 people, so he was not without people. He immediately received a secret report that the governor had brought people to deal with him.

Huang Xu immediately sent someone to the camp outside the city to pass the message, asking the soldiers to prepare for battle.

Then, several troops sent in succession came back to report that it was the governor who personally led the army to come, with more than 50,000 people. They were still regular troops, eating food and wages, and receiving wages and silver.

Huang Xu lost his energy immediately after hearing this. What was there to resist? He had 10,000 troops, most of whom were civilians who had no fighting power and were recruited as soldiers, and a large part of them were family members who followed the army.

How could they fight?

Even if he was so passionate and wanted to fight Yang Bi to the death, he was not so confused that he planned to fight against the enemy with his own strength.

So he immediately arranged for his family to escape from Renzhou overnight. When Huang Shenzhi learned the news and went to inform Su Qing'an, Huang Xu had already fled south with his family and close subordinates.

And in the camp outside the city, no matter how worried Su Qing'an and others were, they could only watch Su's father, uncle, Da Jiang and Da Hu gather in the vanguard team.

Everyone was worried, quickly packed their luggage, put the children on the ox cart, drove their own oxen, and followed the large army to evacuate.

Huang Shenzhi also knew that Huang Xu had left, so he asked him to stay and turn the soldiers outside the city into the rear army to resist the approaching Yang Bi team.

The front army was Huang Xu and others, the middle army was the women and children who followed the army, and the rear army was led by Huang Xu, ready to fight against Yang Bi's team.

Huang Shenzhi also knew that the chances of winning were slim, so while organizing people to retreat, he led his troops to evacuate southward, and sent people to explore Yang Bi's marching route.

When Su Qingmei was first captured by Huang Shenzhi and joined the team, she asked about their marching route. She learned that their team had joined the main force in Fuzhou, and they were going to pass through Nancheng, Youcheng, through Jiangxi, and enter Fujian. Then they entered Fujian, passed Chongren, Zhaowu, and finally arrived in Nanping.

Now they were being chased by Yang Bi's team, and they couldn't go to Nancheng. The main force was preparing to evacuate to the mountainous area in central Jiangxi, intending to use the mountain terrain to resist slightly and reduce casualties.

Behind them, Yang Bi rushed straight at them with his elite soldiers. The atmosphere was tense. Su Qing'an whipped the old cow repeatedly, wanting it to go faster and faster.

On the other hand, Yang Bi pursued the team all the way and also captured several teams that wanted to take advantage of the chaos. This bought some time for Huang Shenzhi to evacuate.

But everyone knew that if they met Yang Bi's team, they would be defeated.
