Chapter 188: Anti-Zhu

"The Jiedushi wants to kill you!" Sun Zhi grabbed Liu Chenglin's wrist, "Fortunately, I have a good reputation in normal times. Someone sent me a letter in advance, so I ran out. But along the way, there have been people chasing me. Thanks to the continuous rain and bad weather these days, I was lucky enough to escape."

Liu Chenglin's face changed drastically and asked in a stern voice: "What about your family?"

"How can there be a complete egg when the nest is destroyed? I don't know about them yet, but with the temperament of the governor, I'm afraid they will not be spared." At this point, Sun Zhi lowered his head dejectedly.

"I have implicated you!" Liu Chenglin helped Sun Zhi sit down, feeling sad and angry, "Just because my father was an official in Shiyi, would the governor kill me? Over the years, I have made countless contributions to him in the east and west. Could it be that I don't even have this little trust? My father must have been forced. Can't he see such an obvious plan of disagreement?"

"It's not just this thing!" Sun Zhi looked up at Liu Chenglin and shook his head and said, "You don't know yet, right? Wuyi Li Ze, has already proposed marriage to your family Ruyan, and your father has agreed. If it is forced to be an official in Shiyi, but once the marriage is done, whether it is forced or not, things will be completely different."

Liu Chenglin's face changed drastically: "Are you true?"

"How can such a big event be fake?" Sun Zhi smiled bitterly: "It is precisely because this incident was spread that the Jiedushi had the intention to kill you. Now Henghai is in trouble with internal and external troubles, and Dezhou is almost gone, and Dizhou has also been severely damaged. The Jiedushi hated Li to the core. This incident happened to the point of view. How could the Jiedushi not be angry? How could the Jiedushi not be angry? How could he not be killed? If you have a change in Jingzhou, Henghai would be almost done."

Liu Chenglin sighed and sat down dejectedly.

"This must be Li Ze's plan again. Although my father is cowardly, as long as the matter concerns me, he will be as hard as a stone. He will not be unaware of the consequences of his marriage with Li, so he will definitely not agree. It must be Li Ze's behavior and released the news, which made Henghai believe it."

"What are the differences now?" Sun Zhi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the messenger who killed you has arrived in Jingzhou City now. Fortunately, you are leading troops out, otherwise your head might be on the way to Cangzhou now."

"Can I kill me just by these trash people Lu Jin?" Liu Chenglin said disdainfully.

Sun Zhi looked at him and said, "Why can't you kill you? I'll trick you into the city? Even if you are alone, you can get a few nails? Do you think your subordinates will avenge you? Liu Changfeng may, but Yang Xi and Cai Deke all came out of the guards of the Jiedushi. Now that they are the orders of the Jiedushi, will they look towards you?"

Liu Chenglin fell silent for a long time before he slowly said: "Brother Sun, you have been working all the way to deliver letters to me. Thank you for your hard work. This love and righteousness is unforgettable. Changfeng, you take Brother Sun to change your clothes, make some wine and food, and have enough food to eat and drink, and then have a good sleep."

"What's going on here?" Sun Zhi asked.

"Since I already know this, how can I give them any chance? Brother Sun wouldn't think I'm so useless, right? To be honest, the governor of Jingzhou, He Zhigao, is in Anling now. No wonder he is so shameless in front of me. It turns out that he has the intention to get me back to Jingzhou City and then slaughter it with one knife. Hehe, hehe!"

"Since you know it, I'm relieved. I'm really exhausted these days." Sun Zhi turned around and walked a few steps, then turned around: "Chenglin, we have no way out."

Liu Chenglin nodded.

"Did you forget what I said to you when you last met? And your family, as long as they are still alive, I will definitely find a way to rescue them. If they have any misfortunes, our brothers will naturally take revenge in person."

Only Liu Chenglin was left in the room. He sat on the chair with his head in pain until Liu Changfeng walked in from outside and stood beside him.

"Young Master, we have no way out. Either you die or I die. Now we have a thousand soldiers in our hands. Lu Jin and the others are just a group of waste seedlings. Anyway, we have no worries now, so why not occupy Jingzhou."

Liu Chenglin slowly raised his head, his eyes were blood red, and he roared in a low voice: "Li Ze, I'm not finished with you."

Liu Changfeng smiled bitterly: "Young Master, if Li Zezhen mentioned the marriage to the master, then he will be your brother-in-law from now on?"

Liu Chenglin said angrily: "Now this matter has been spread. If he just plays with conspiracies and ignores my sister's reputation, I will definitely live with him. He will marry him even if he doesn't marry me. If he doesn't, I will hold a knife on his neck, and he will also marry him."

Hearing Liu Chenglin's words, Liu Changfeng knew that the young master had made a decision.

"What should we do tomorrow? Should we continue to set out to Jingzhou or stop? Besides, what should He Zhigao deal with? And Yang Yi and Cai De?"

Liu Changlin stood up slowly.

"Of course I have to go back. If I don't go back, how can I take Jingzhou?"

It was dawn, and He Zhigao came to attack Liu Chenglin and immediately returned to the army, but was flatly rejected by Liu Chenglin.

"What? Do you want to recruit two thousand soldiers from the palace to bring them back to Jingzhou?" He Zhigao stared at Liu Chenglin with wide eyes, "Person Liu, it is the responsibility of the governor to recruit soldiers from the palace. You do not have this authority."

Liu Chenglin smiled and said, "Liu came to fight against the rebellion under the order of the governor. It was already within the scope of responsibility to collect the troops on the spot. Besides, isn't He Changshi here now? With the two of us jointly signed and published the article, there will naturally be no problem."

"But why do we still call on the palace soldiers? The rebellion has been quelled?" He Zhigao asked back.

"Changshi, the reason why the rebellion has subsided is not that the matter has been resolved, it is just that these people fear the power of our military. When these people return home, they are good people, and when they gather, they are mobs. What if they gather again? Could it be that I would turn back in a hurry at that time?" Liu Chenglin asked with his hands spread out.

"Isn't this the case?" He Zhigao disagreed.

"Prevent problems before they happen. This time, the recruitment of troops from the government is not for war, but to prevent these young and strong men from doing anything bad." Liu Chenglin said: "So I want to collect most of the young and strong men in Anling and take them back to monitor nearby. Without these people, Anling will naturally be peaceful. When the disaster passes, these people will be repatriated one after another, so that we can ensure safety."

Liu Chenglin was very sensible and sounded very reasonable. He Zhigao couldn't find any words to refute. After thinking about it, he finally nodded in agreement.

No matter how many soldiers Liu Chenglin recruited, he could only be stationed outside Jingzhou City, and they wanted to trick Liu Chenglin into the city to kill him. At that time, it would be too easy to find an excuse. Whether it was a celebration banquet or a meeting, as long as Liu Chenglin entered the city alone, his death date would come.

The army that was expected to return today did not move, but instead ordered the government soldiers to be recruited to four towns and eight miles. It was originally difficult to recruit the government soldiers in the place where the riots had just passed, but Liu Chenglin had previously killed corrupt officials in Anling, opened warehouses and released grain, and helped the victims to help the victims, so he had a considerable reputation in the local area. Moreover, when he became a government soldiers, he could have a bowl of public meals, which could be considered as reducing the burden on his family. So Liu Chenglin originally wanted to recruit about 2,000 people, but in the end, nearly 5,000 people came.

Liu Chenglin refused everyone. Anyway, he had money and food, and now he reorganized the government soldiers and opened the Anling Arsenal to distribute equipment. He was busy for nearly five days. This team organized by one thousand soldiers and five thousand government soldiers set out towards Jingzhou City in a mighty manner.

Marching and fighting were Liu Chenglin's strengths. Along the way, he accurately calculated the time and when he arrived outside Jingzhou City, it was already dark.

It is naturally impossible for the army to enter the city, so they can only camp outside the city.

"Person Liu, just a few of them can do the camping work, so why bother Liu to work hard? The governor has set up a celebration banquet. Why not go to the banquet with me together." He Zhigao couldn't wait to mobilize Liu Chenglin to join him in the city.

Liu Chenglin looked at him disdainfully: "Sir, you are not familiar with the situation in the army. The establishment of these thousands of troops is the most careless. What's more, these five thousand soldiers were the mobs you said not long ago. Now that they are in Jingzhou, how dare I be negligent? How to set up camp, how to place them so that they dare not cause trouble, and how to restrain the officers among them are all important matters. No matter in the army, there is a small matter you said. A small matter may destroy an army. I really can't leave today. If He Changshi feels tired, then go back to the city first. As for the celebration banquet, either eat tomorrow or not, you don't have to eat. To be honest, this trip to Anling is really no credit. If there is any credit, killing some corrupt officials such as Lu Zigao can be counted as one."

He Zhigao's face was purplish and irresistible after a while: "What the lieutenant said is so true. The lieutenant does not avoid hard work. As the Chief Secretary of the Prefecture, how dare I return home? Let's supervise the lieutenant!"

Liu Chenglin Zhanyan smiled: "It's so good that if you have a chief minister here, you can also let your children see the importance that Chief Jing attaches to them."

Things were as Liu Chenglin said. These newly recruited soldiers were busy until the second half of the night before finally settled down. At this time, He Zhigao was already exhausted and fell asleep.
