Turbulent Times Chapter 988: Loss and gain

(Thank you very much for the generosity of 'Xu Bodhi' and 'cagewell123' and the support of monthly tickets.)

Nine naval officers, including Zhu Yukun, Huang Shaoqiu, and Lu Shijun, came out of the temple. Knowing that Wang Junlin is definitely not that easy to kill, he thought that Wang Junlin should lead a small group of people to break through in the end, but he didn't expect that the final result was that Lu Shi, who had an absolute advantage in military strength, was defeated by the prefect, and it was a complete defeat.

Nine people strode up to Wang Junlin, who was talking to Nie Xiaoyu, and bowed. Zhu Yukun, the captain of Guoyi, took the lead and said, "Congratulations to the prefect. The prefect is indeed invincible. Lu's rebellion is true!" It's a jumping clown."

Wang Junlin looked at the nine people with a calm expression, and said: "Geng Wanhu, Captain Guoyi who is stationed in the navy, conspired to rebel last night, and the Lanyiwei Mansion has received the news and entered the camp to be executed."

When the nine people heard this, their hearts trembled. Only then did they realize that the navy camp was not peaceful last night, and the prefect had already made arrangements. After looking at each other, they said in unison: "The prefect is wise." /

Wang Junlin waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about these nonsense, you should return to the navy camp immediately. Huang Shaoqiu stays in the camp and is responsible for cleaning up all the remnants of Dou Shihai and Geng Wanhu. For the other eight, I will give you half Shi Chen called his own soldiers, Zhu Yukun led 1,500 people, and the other seven people brought 500 people each, a total of 5,000 people came here to meet up, and follow me to destroy the traitor Lu."

Huang Shaoqiu's face was ugly, and he said anxiously: "My lord, I also want to follow my lord to destroy the rebels and make meritorious service."

The other eight people looked delighted. They knew that the Lu family did not have these three thousand private soldiers. Now the prefect has too much evidence to prove that the Lu family rebelled. Afterwards, the positions of General Zhong Lang and three Lieutenants Guo Yi that were vacated within the navy were mostly determined based on their combat achievements in countering the rebellion. Except for Zhu Yukun, who considers himself Captain Guo Yi, who has the most official position in the navy, and the prefect had to take him with him, the other seven people all believed that it was due to their private meeting with the prefect last night. In fact, the prefect also I did promise them that although there are more people, at least they are better than Huang Shaoqiu!

Nine people took orders one after another, Wang Junlin gave Huang Shaoqiu a meaningful look, and the latter nodded secretly. Then the nine naval generals each found a war horse and rushed to the naval camp.

Wang Junlin said to Yuchi Jingde who was waiting next to him: "Brother Yuchi can set off now to go back to pick up Lingmu to Fanyang County City, where I and my junior sister will treat Lingmu."

Yuchi Jingde took a deep look at Wang Junlin, and said, "I hope the prefect can keep his word."

After speaking, he clasped his fist at Wang Junlin and left with a thousand bandits.

Wang Junlin knew that there were tens of thousands of people in the Lu family's ancestral house, as well as the Lu family town where it was located, as well as the nearby Lu family's tenants and Lu family's offshoots. He had to bring enough people to go to the Lu's ancestral house. It can shake the scene and prevent trouble. At this time, if a thousand bandits with Yuchi Jingde go in the past, they will only add fuel to the fire and make people talk. So directly sent Yuchi Jingde back.

"Xiao Yu, follow the plan! Huang Shaoqiu will cooperate with you and force some soldiers in the navy who are close to Dou Shihai to rebel and put them down. Huang Shaoqiu played a play, rescued them, and smuggled them to Snake Island. In addition to the hundreds of rebel soldiers you took away with the Blue Yiwei Mansion last night, you can make up 2,000 people. The island personally drills them, these people will be our navy team.”

Nie Xiaoyu nodded and said, "There are too many people. I need Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong's five hundred soldiers to accompany me."

Wang Junlin nodded and said: "Yes, Shan Xiongxin and the rest of the soldiers can follow me."

Nie Xiaoyu looked at the soldiers who were treating the wounded and restraining the corpses of the robes, and said: "There are only 215 uninjured soldiers. The number is not too small."

Wang Junlin said: "Let Xin'er and Xuanba stay. I don't think there will be a small battle going to Lu's ancestral house. Let them have more experience and experience."

When Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba heard this, their eyes lit up and their faces were excited. These two boys are violent. When they heard that the battle was not small, they knew that there must be many fights.

Nie Xiaoyu did not go to the navy camp immediately with 500 cavalry, they would not leave until Zhu Yukun, Lu Shijun and other eight people arrived with 5000 naval officers and soldiers.

At this time, Guan Xiaotong came to report: "My lord, I collected 2,754 Lu's war horses, 3,000 sets of fine armor, 1,000 knives, 2,000 long spears, and 800 pairs of longbows. .”

Wang Junlin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that, although they won a big victory today, they still lost a lot, half of the 500 soldiers left now, these horses, armor and weapons are their biggest gain.

"My lord, what to do with these two thousand captives." Perfume asked.

Wang Junlin hesitated for a while, and said to Nie Xiaoyu: "Send it to Snake Island as well, let them build barracks, reclaim fertile land, and port, and turn back to Snake Island to build a weapon workshop, which lacks a lot of labor."

At this time, a group of soldiers hurriedly ran from the direction of Rongcheng County. Only a dozen or so soldiers led the way on horseback, and the others ran behind.

"It should be Guan Fengping, the county magistrate of Rongcheng, who got the news and came to rescue with the county soldiers." Perfume glanced at it and said.

Soon these people came to the front, and Wang Junlin saw that besides Guan Fengping, there were more than ten masters including Guoer and Four Swords Attendants.

Guan Fengping looked at the corpses on the ground and the more than 2,000 captives kneeling, with a look of surprise on his face, he trotted to Wang Junlin, bowed and said: "The rescue is late, please forgive me, my lord."

Wang Junlin took a look at the county soldiers who were running to the point of dying and sitting on the ground with their hands on trees and stones. There were only about 700 of them. Embarrassed, he said: "The officials are in a hurry to come, these county soldiers have no horses to travel, and they have run out of strength."

Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "Your Majesty Guan is too polite. You can't blame Mr. Guan. His arrival happened just in time. Half of the government soldiers around me were killed or injured. I still have important matters to deal with. Please help restrain yourself." Take the corpses of the government soldiers, treat the wounded soldiers, and temporarily place them in Rongcheng County."

Guan Fengping immediately said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will leave this matter to the subordinates, and I will never let the soldiers suffer any grievances."

Wang Junlin said: "There are still corpses of bandit soldiers, you should take someone to deal with them too!"

Guan Fengping hastily obeyed.
