Chapter 1383 The Traitor

Lian Fangzhou smiled and gave a soft "huh".

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Li Fu picked up 10,000 horses and went straight to Xuantong City, which is the closest to Langqi Prefecture. Xuantong City has Xuantong Pass to defend, which can effectively prevent the rebels from going north.

Participating in politics, counseling, etc. stopped all common affairs in hand, coordinated the various states and counties, and concentrated on the logistics mobilization of grain, grass and medicine.

On the one hand, the notice was issued to calm the people, and on the other hand, the patrols were strengthened. If Nanhai City is not in chaos, other counties will not be in chaos!

Lian Fangzhou also sent someone to inform the old man of the Lezheng family, and asked the old man to call a meeting of all the merchants in the name of the chairman of the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce, reminding everyone to abide by the law and operate normally during the extraordinary period, and not to do anything to disturb the market and disturb the hearts of the people things to come.

After doing this for a few minutes, there was no slight change in Nanhai City, and everyone lived as usual, doing what they should do. As for the rebellion in Langqi Prefecture, it's just a few gossips to pass the time after dinner!

Lian Fangzhou and Li Fu's expectations were correct, and the launch of this rebellion had indeed a great relationship with Liang Jin.

Besides, after Liang Jin fled alone that night, he went straight to the Heili tribe in Langqi Prefecture without even thinking about it.

Originally, the Heili tribe united with several other tribes to launch a rebellion in three days, so as to lure Li Fu to kill them for revenge.

But after Liang Jin arrived, some persuasion stopped them, and they made a more comprehensive and detailed plan before launching an incident.

He didn't expect that Li Fu accidentally made a beautiful time difference, only three days difference! But it completely changed the fate of the Liang family!

If Li Fu hadn't acted so quickly against the Liang family, once the news of the Heili people's rebellion in Langqi Prefecture reached Nanhai City, where would he be able to spare his energy to deal with the Liang family? Instead, the Liang family took the opportunity to deal with him!

It was precisely because of this that Mr. Liang and others were sure that the government would not be able to siege the Liang family for a few days, so he was negligent and slack, so he was caught off guard by the government and had no time to resist!

Otherwise, how could it be so easy for Li Fu to take down the Liang family in one fell swoop? The servants of the Liang family are all carefully selected and trained hard, and their combat effectiveness is more than a few blocks away from those servants! Even if it's not as good as Li Fu's personal soldiers, it's not much worse!

Once a melee fight starts, it can always delay for some time, and it is impossible for the Liang family to be wiped out except for themselves...

Thinking of this, Liang Jin almost vomited blood with hatred.

Father and second uncle were negligent, and he was also negligent!

How could Li Fu suddenly send people to surround Liang's house and strictly prohibit them from entering or leaving? Should have noticed then!

However, what is the use of saying this now? He only hoped that Li Fu would hurry to Langqi Prefecture to die!

Now in Langqi Prefecture, there are not only fierce and aggressive tribes such as Hei Li and Bai Yi waiting for Li Fu with great momentum, but also the six hundred elite mine guards he transferred from another iron mine...

Galloping day and night, except for a short break to drink water and eat dry food, Li Fu and his party never rested on the road. After two days and one night, they finally arrived in Xuantong City.

The army was stationed outside the city, and Li Fu ordered the defense to be deployed. He led a group of generals and Luo Zhoucheng followed Xuantong County Magistrate Zhang Yong and other county officials who went out of the city to meet him.

A courtyard has been vacated in the backyard of the county government office and cleaned up as a place for Li Fu to stay.

After hurriedly washing and changing clothes, and drinking hot tea, Li Fu called County Magistrate Zhang to report the military situation.

County magistrate Zhang and others saw that the chief minister personally led the reinforcements to arrive, and finally let go of his heart, he was so relaxed that his bones seemed to be a few taels lighter!

Hearing Li Fu's question, he cupped his hands and said, "Back to your lord, the rebel army has subsided a lot since they came down to He County. The lower officials sent people to secretly investigate, and they seem to be resting on the spot! Now that you hear that your lord is leading the troops, I'm afraid it will be even worse." It will be frightening, and it will be difficult to go further!"

Li Fu didn't feel much about the praises, and asked about the situation in the city, whether the people's hearts are stable, whether the merchants are honest, how to resettle the refugees who escaped from He County and Fuchi, etc. After a few words, Mr. Zhang saw it on his forehead. sweat.

Li Fu's face suddenly turned a little ugly, and he waved his hand and said calmly: "However, what is a tribal rebellion by a few mobs? You made your parents and officials so confused that you even forgot how to do the affairs of the headquarters! In military affairs, you don't have to No matter what, appease the hearts of the people and settle the refugees properly, let's go!"

Master Zhang was relieved, he didn't dare to talk too much, he quickly retreated.

Li Fu hurried back to the barracks again, brought two guides he had specially found, discussed with Hu Dahai, Luo Zhoucheng and others, and sent scouts out of the city to investigate. Everything was under intense preparation.

In the middle of the night, beside a remote path near the barracks, a black figure came stealthily, glanced around vigilantly, took out a pure white carrier pigeon that was covered by a black cloth in its sleeves, threw both hands, The carrier pigeon fluttered its wings and flew high.

Suddenly, the carrier pigeon screamed in panic as if it had bumped into something. Looking carefully, it turned out that a large net with iron blocks came out of nowhere, and it was firmly caught in the carrier pigeon!

The iron block dragged the big net down, and in a blink of an eye, the carrier pigeon was dragged involuntarily and fell to the ground, struggling and screaming.

Luo Zhoucheng exclaimed in a low voice, his face changed drastically, realizing that it was too late to escape.

In the barracks, Luo Zhoucheng was firmly tied with his hands cut behind his back, kneeling in front of Li Fu with a face ashen ashes.

Li Fu unhurriedly read the note tied to the leg of the carrier pigeon, and sneered at Luo Zhoucheng: "Lord Zhou Cheng, what else do you have to say?"

Luozhou Cheng trembled, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord! The criminal minister has been wronged, my lord! The criminal minister's family members have been captured by them. If the criminal minister does not listen to them, the criminal minister's family members will die! The criminal minister is the same, It's a last resort!"

"Really!" Li Fu sneered disdainfully, and said coldly: "You really think I'm that naughty boy who coaxes you at will? This reason is fair and aboveboard! If I don't understand you, it's because I'm not human, isn't it? ?”

Luozhou Cheng's heart trembled, he bowed his head and said: "Criminant...don't dare!"

Li Fu snorted lightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't dare to say it, but you don't necessarily think so in your heart! That's all! Since you are in such a difficult situation, I can't be too unkind! This official Just let you go, go back to Langqi Prefecture and reunite with your family! Someone, untie him, prepare a horse, and let him go!"

Luozhou Cheng was stunned, and did not dare to say anything: "My lord, this——"

He originally thought that if he fell into Li Fu's hands, he would lose his skin if he didn't die, but he didn't expect that instead of punishing him, Li Fu sent him away instead! He didn't believe he had such good luck!
