Chapter 756 Night Attack
"What do you mean by the governor of Chuzhou Wang Huailio stayed in Henan and refused to leave?"
Staying in the carriage, Li Xun talked about this matter.
Sima Tu smiled and said, "There is a cause when coming to Henan. If you don't leave, there will be a result. If there is a cause, there will be a result."
Li Xun said in confusion: "What is the result you mean?"
Sima Tu said softly: "Wang Huailei was ordered to send troops to Henan. Although the war has ended, the court has not rewarded him yet. He has been working in vain and left like this. Wang Huailei will naturally not be willing to leave."
Li Xun nodded. Sima Tu's words made sense. Wang Huailie had been the governor of Chuzhou for more than ten years. In Chuzhou, he was the local emperor. He would be as happy as he would be. Now that he has been in Henan for a long time, he has to work with the court. There must be a reason. After Sima Tu said this, Li Xun then remembered that Zhao Xun had not rewarded Wang Huailie yet, but the other two people, Yun Ji and Huang Sui, and Zhao Xun, also did not have any rewards.
From this point, we can also see that the two local governors, Huang Su and Yun Ji, are still loyal to the court. Even if they are dissatisfied, they will not abolish the public because of their own personal gain. They will do whatever they should do. Wang Huailio is very different. After suffering a little grievance, he will show his eyes and grin at the court.
In the evening, Li Xun and his group arrived at an inn and stopped to rest here.
Zhao Shuo still refused to eat. There was no way, so Li Xun could only let the soldiers open Zhao Shuo's mouth and forcefully feed him.
Zhao Shuo is also stubborn. After being forced to eat, he vomited all the food with his fingers. Li Xun could only order again that after someone forced Zhao Shuo to eat, he tied his hands up and did not give him any space to move freely. After doing all this, Zhao Shuo temporarily calmed down.
The night was safe and sound. The next day, Li Xun and others rushed for another day. It was not far from Fengjing, and there was only less than half a day left.
Li Xun originally wanted to continue rushing and strive to arrive at Fengjing earlier, so that his mission would be completed. This trip was smooth, but it was completely dark at this time and it was raining suddenly. The 500 soldiers accompanying him, at the strong request of his leader, Lang General Yu Heng, hoped to enter the station, rest for one night, and go on a journey tomorrow.
Yu Heng and others belong to the Yulin Guard system, but were temporarily under the command of Li Xun. They were not his own direct troops, and Li Xun was not easy to force them. They could only obey Yu Heng and others' requests, enter the post station, avoid heavy rain, and then go on a journey as soon as the sky was dawn.
"If it goes well, you can rush home for lunch tomorrow."
Li Xun said with a smile.
Sima Tu also smiled and said, "I originally thought that something would happen to this trip to Luojing, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."
"Let's rest early, continue to rush tomorrow morning and arrive in Fengjing early, so I can feel completely relaxed."
When he walked to the door of the rest room, Li Xun asked Sima Tu to rest early and continue his journey tomorrow morning.
Sima Tu nodded and walked into the room next to Li Xun.
Late at night, around the post station, Yang Shicheng led 800 soldiers to surround the place.
"Sir, we are not sure that we can keep our identity secret on the open attack. This is a death sentence. Moreover, there are 300 soldiers on the other side, and there are not many people. We may not be able to fight. After all, it is too risky. Are you thinking about it?"
An officer persuaded Yang Shicheng bitterly.
"Shut up."
Yang Shicheng turned his head and looked at him, and said coldly: "The arrow is not turned back. If you dare to say a word, I will kill you first."
"The officials dare not."
The officer looked fearful on his face, lowered his head, and did not dare to say more.
Yang Shicheng glanced at everyone and said viciously: "I have spent all my wealth and given you what you want. How dare you let me down? Only move forward and not retreat tonight, otherwise I will never forgive you."
"yes."
Everyone responded quickly.
Yang Shicheng said to the leader Lang Jiang: "I don't need to say much about the strength of the Yang family. Don't let anyone go tonight. As long as the news doesn't leak out, the matter is going to be big, and someone will help us press it. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Take money and eliminate disasters for others. Now, it is useless to say more."
Lang was a very decisive person and did not say much nonsense.
Seeing General Lang's attitude, Yang Shicheng nodded with satisfaction.
A shout of killing woke Li Xun from his sleep.
Before Li Xun could get dressed, he picked up the sword beside him and rushed out of the room quickly.
"General, someone attacked."
As soon as he left the room, ten soldiers had surrounded him.
Li Xun only brought ten personal soldiers during this trip. That night, Jiang Daxiong and others suffered serious injuries and have been recuperating recently, so Li Xun did not bring them with him.
Li Xun is also a person who has experienced many hardships, and such a situation will not make him panic or scared.
Li Xun asked calmly: "How many people are there on the other side and where is the army?"
"It is not clear which force it is, but judging from the other party's clothes, it should be local soldiers, with a number of more than 500 people, and their combat effectiveness is not too strong."
The personal captain Wang Jiaoru gave a quick answer.
Li Xun glanced at Wang Jiaoru and found out what was going on so quickly that the other party had some ability.
At this time, the door next to it opened, and Sima Tu walked out while wearing her clothes.
"The Yang family has taken action after all."
Sima Tu walked to Li Xun, looked at the situation around him, and said coldly.
Li Xun looked at Sima Tu: "Yang family? They are so brave to attack the post station openly? Yang Daolin just made great contributions and was the leader of all officials. He would not do this."
Sima Tu sneered: "Yang Daosi is famous for his lifetime, but the sons he gave birth to are all idiots. The biggest characteristic of idiots is that they are reckless and impulsive, and do whatever they want. Yang Daolin naturally would not do such stupid things, but the lord should understand that the Yang family is not Yang Daolin's head of the family today."
Li Xun immediately understood that after Yang Binglin was arrested, Yang You'an was currently in charge of family affairs in the Yang family, and Yang You'an was even worse than Yang Binglin.
Li Xun was not in a hurry to go out. The other party raided at night and did not encounter too much resistance. He even attacked the post station. Fortunately, this post station was the last post station to Fengjing, so it was much larger than the post stations in other places. Although the other party successfully attacked, he could not occupy the entire post station immediately. This gave Li Xun and others a certain buffer space so that they would not be quickly eliminated by the other party.
