Chapter 51

"You...you say it again? What did my son do?"

Su Congfang, who recovered from the shock, walked out of the roof with an excited look. He was not happy, but his hands were shaking with horror. You must know that the word "rebellion" is different from the removal of a title. If he loses, the clan will really be exterminated.

The messenger thought that the old man was extremely happy, so he repeated: "The third young master led his troops to capture Ding'an. Please return to the mansion."

"Husband." Xiao Wei saw some changes in her husband's face. Su Congfang pursed her lips and held her old wife's hand. "It's okay. I'm proud of my husband and Chen'er."

Although he was worried in his heart, the old man also understood that the matter had come to this, and the Su family could only bite the bullet and fight it out!
"Can Qin Zhuang be killed?"

Su Lie was not as complicated as his father thought. When he heard his third brother captured Ding'an City, the fanaticism in his bones suddenly rushed out. When he heard the soldier say, "Kill him, chop off his head." At that time, he took the steel knives left behind by the four corpses, excitedly greeted his father and mother and left.

"Father, mother, what are you waiting for? Let's fight back to Ding'an City!"

"Okay!" Fang Xuejun returned to the house immediately. He excitedly took the eight thin knives with him and walked outside the eaves. Thinking of something, he turned back, picked up Xiao Wei, and walked out.

The carriage that came from Qinzhuang is still there, and it can still accommodate six people if they are squeezed together. Su Lie is driving, Su Congfang and his wife are sitting in the back, the eldest sister-in-law Su Huan and Fang Xuejun are sitting next to the old woman, and the second sister-in-law is sitting next to the old woman. Hua Hongzhen sat opposite, while the messenger got on his horse and led the way.

As for the things in the courtyard and Thirteen, Chunmei was left to take care of them. After they settled back in the city, they would send some people to drive over.

The carriage drove slowly over the rough road. In the rickety carriage, except for Su Lie who was driving with one hand, the other five people were relatively silent. They probably had not yet recovered from the shock.

"Uncle, has Ding'an City really been captured?" Hua Hongzhen asked in disbelief at the sudden news.The gap between the dilapidated courtyard and the Marquis' mansion made her feel like she was suffering every day. Now that she could go back to live in a luxurious mansion with maids and servants to serve her, she was very excited. On the other hand, she was also a little scared. What if the court comes back?
"Humph, I must be true."

Fang Xuejun didn't think that much. She even directly thought of the picture of Su Chen leading the troops, how majestic it must be. Thinking about it, she got a little excited, "You just didn't bring me with you."

Yin Suhuan has not yet gotten over the news of her husband's death, but she was extremely shocked when she heard the news that her brother-in-law had captured Ding'an City.

Ever since she married into the Su family, the uncle who was busy in the bridal chamber listening to the wall, lingering in the brothel, and who was knowledgeable in all kinds of religions, seemed to be completely different during this period of time.

More and more powerful people appear around him.

In addition to the dead guard, there were also fat men, and now there was a tall, muscular, fierce-looking man, and the three people named Zhang...

Where did he get to know these people?
How did they capture the city gate again...

Her thoughts became confused. Occasionally she looked outside the car curtain. She thought of Su Yong and silently muttered in her heart: "Husband, the family is fine. My uncle is getting better and better. If you can support this family, your soul in heaven must do it." Bless him and the Su family!"

The car swayed and continued to move forward, led by the messenger on horseback, who did not enter from the south city. After all, the city had not yet been cleared, and the south city gate was still closed. This way, turning towards the wilderness of the east gate, one or two horses could occasionally be seen. The corpses of dead horses or people passed by the Ding'an military camp, and several human heads hanging high on the flagpole could be seen from the knocked down fence. One of them, Su Congfang and others, knew that it was Qin Zhuang who had come to the house to show off his power and insult them.

The only trace of doubt that existed in my heart completely disappeared.

Passing from the military camp and driving along the road below the city wall, there were sounds of fighting in the distance. It was a wave of fighting between more than 2000 people and hundreds of people. There were human corpses everywhere on the front line.

Su Lie, who was driving the car, recognized this group of people. He said excitedly: "Those are the three Zhang Jiao brothers. Those heads wrapped in yellow scarves are their followers. I didn't expect that the third brother called them here."

Su Congfang knew about Taiping Road and knew that it was related to her youngest son, but the old wife, Hua Hongzhen, and Yin Suhuan didn't know much about it. Especially when Fang Xuejun heard what Su Lie said, he opened the curtain and stood in the car. Looking out from the chariot.

"They don't look powerful!" The woman looked at it for a long time, and the fighting group gradually passed from her sight. She felt that the two sides seemed fierce, but they had been fighting for so long with no victory or defeat.

"We are fighting on the battlefield. One wrong step can lead to the whole army being wiped out. It is better to be cautious. But I heard from my third brother that the man named Zhang Jiao is very powerful and can catch thunder from the sky with his bare hands."

When Su Lie said this, it turned into a myth. Fang Xuejun naturally didn't believe it. Even a top-notch expert would be hit by a thunder, and he would be half dead, let alone catch it with his bare hands.

Turning the corner of the city wall several miles away, several people suddenly felt the carriage jolt. Hua Hongzhen opened the curtain, and a cavalry of hundreds of people rushed out of the city gate. The tumbling iron hooves kicked up dust and smoke, and flew past not far in front of them. , go to the official road in the southeast.The leader was holding a weapon they had never seen before, and he was sitting on a red horse. His red robes were billowing in the wind. The moment the two sides crossed each other, the general glanced sideways, as if he had already seen everyone in the car. , the sharp eyes made Hua Hongzhen, Yin Suhuan and other female family members breathless.

"There...there are so many cavalry, who was the one who was commanding them just now?" Su Lie was also startled by Lu Bu's eyes, and he was a general he had never seen before, so he couldn't help but ask the messenger who was leading the way.

The people in the car also strained their ears to listen.

"I don't know about the... humble position just now. When I was still in the military camp, I heard the Third Young Master say that his name is Lu Bu. Let's just call him General Lu. But he is very powerful. As soon as Han Tao appeared, he was yelled at by General Lu. The halberd was split in half. By the way, there was also a very tall man, whose arms were almost as thick as my thighs..."

The messenger was gesturing on horseback, and suddenly he stopped his horse. Su Lie also stopped the carriage. Before he could ask what was going on, at the gate of the city, a team of Ding'an soldiers in armor quickly left the city. The person was Dong Zhuo, whom Su Lie and the others had met. The latter also saw this side, nodded briefly, and then went straight over.

"Second Young Master, Third Young Master should be in the government office at the moment. I don't take you here with me because of my humble duty." After saying that, the soldier said goodbye and turned around to catch up with the advancing Ding'an Army.

Su Lie smacked his lips and looked at the retreating army with some envy. He looked back at his empty right arm, his face darkened again, he shook off the reins and drove the carriage into the city.

Su Congfang felt quite distressed when she looked at the charred city gates and the streets trampled by iron hoofs. In the past few streets, not a single commoner could be seen. Occasionally, some people would open the windows and poke their heads out to see carriages. He quickly shrank back.

On the way, the carriage passed through two patrols of soldiers for interrogation before arriving at the government office. At this time, the entire street outside the government office was filled with Xiliang soldiers under martial law. There were many injured soldiers resting in the courtyard inside. Almost all the doctors in the city They all came over and were busy among the wounded.

The air was filled with the smell of blood mixed with herbs.

Su Congfang led the family to look around cautiously. He had never seen such a battle in his life. When they saw the soldiers who were missing hands and feet and screaming, Su Huan, Hua Hongzhen and other female family members turned pale with fear.

When I walked to the government office hall, all the previous furnishings were cleared away, leaving only a large table in the middle. On it was a map of Rongzhou Kanyu, with detailed markings on various cities, official roads, and inns.

There were many people coming in and out around him. Chen Luoping, half-stained with blood, was sitting against the wall and was being bandaged by a doctor. There was also a tall figure standing at the door of the court. When he saw the group of people coming in, he lowered his head slightly and looked fierce. On the front door, Tong Ling's big eyes squinted over. Su Congfang looked up and met her eyes. Her heart suddenly twitched and she stopped immediately. She stood there without daring to move.

At this time, Su Chen's voice came from in front of the big table: "Dian Wei."

After hearing this, the giant man withdrew his gaze and stood upright again.Seeing the figure of her youngest son, Su Congfang tremblingly raised her hand towards the giant man, and headed over there with his old wife and second son.

"We should be able to take back Ji County soon. If everything goes well, we should be able to take the next three counties tonight. It will be left to Uncle Sun to recruit troops and raise food."

Sun Shuwu was also here. He had already sobered up. He regretted it at first, but now it was too late to leave. Since he had already boarded the pirate ship, he simply followed the rebellion. He could still distinguish between losing his life now and losing his life in the future. .

After listening to Su Chen's words, he nodded solemnly, took the order and left. When he saw Su Congfang coming over, he cupped his hands and said, "I've met the Marquis." and left in a hurry.

"Gang Leader Chen, you have done a lot to capture Ding'an. If you have time now, go and restrain the gang of idle rogues in your hands, as well as a group of gangsters. If someone takes advantage of the situation to rob and oppress the people, don't blame me for robbing them." Use the skin to make a fool of yourself!"

"Don't worry, Third Young Master, nothing will happen to you!" Chen Luoping endured the pain, picked up the iron rod and followed him out.

The court fell silent.

After Su Chen issued all the orders he could, he finally had a chance to breathe. He turned around and quickly asked the servants in the yamen to bring stools to his father and mother, and invited them to sit down.

After seeing his son, Su Congfang felt relieved. After a moment of silence, he finally expressed his confusion.

"Changsheng, are you... really not worried?"

 The first volume ends tomorrow, and the curtain rises on the second volume, the road to rebellion!
