Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 451 The Abandoned People

  Li Huaian, the leading task of the younger generation of the Li family in Zhao County, is also the core of everyone who was left in the "shell" of the Li family in Zhao County by Li Shidao.

At the beginning, the imperial court sent the Neiwei to the aristocratic clan to arrest people, but at first neither of the two aristocratic clans dared to resist. Only the Zhao County Li clan took the lead in attacking the inner guard, which triggered the follow-up of the Northern Zhou aristocratic clan's attack, which led to all the Northern Zhou aristocratic clans. The family had to move south.

   Because they played inside guard.

   This is the power of the state machine. Each level of the state machine represents a whole. As long as you move a part of this huge machine, the state machine will run over like you with all its strength.

  Because it must have absolute authority, this government can be maintained.

  The inner guard is a part of the national machine, and it is a part of the core. It is the inner guard of the emperor, and it is also the face of the emperor. If you kill the inner guard, it means that there is no room for manoeuvre.

   They had to flee to Shu County.

These Northern Zhou clans gathered together in only three days, and took away all the belongings they could take, their family members, four or five clans totaling more than 20,000 people, and they rushed towards the southwest. go.

   entered the mountains of Shu County and they were safe.

   After more than a month of transfer, I saw the Wei River in front of my eyes. After passing the Wei River, the 100,000 mountains of Shu County were in front of my eyes. As long as I entered the mountain, the Pingnan Army was sheltered. They are safe.

  This morning, Yang Guo, the owner of the Hongnong Yang clan, who was nearly 60 years old, sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked at the Weishui River not far away. For some reason, he felt a little uneasy.

   Nearly 4,000 family members of Hongnong Yang's family followed him and moved forward in a mighty manner.

   He pondered for a while, then said to the servant next to him, "Go and invite Li Huaian over."

"Yes."

   After a while, Li Huaian, who appeared to be in his early thirties, appeared in front of Yang Guo, and he respectfully saluted the younger generation.

   "Yang Shibo."

  Yang Guo waved to him and said, "Nephew Li Shi, come and talk in the car."

  Li Huaian hurriedly bent over and got into Yang Guo's car.

  This car is very wide, because it has been wriggling now, and there are two copper stoves in the car, and there are a few tiger-shaped animal charcoal in the stove.

  The strong smell of sandalwood in the carriage is fragrant and refreshing.

  Li Huaian bowed his head respectfully in the carriage: "What's the matter with Shibo calling my little nephew?"

   "How long will it take to get to Weishui?"

  Li Huai'an stretched out his head to look at the sky in front of him, and then said, "Hui Shibo, probably this evening, we will be able to see the Wei River."

   "Is the boat ready?"

   "It's all ready."

  Li Huaian smiled and said, "There are people in the Li family who are engaged in the ship business. They stayed in Weishui for half a month to prepare. There are dozens of ships. Let's go to the river in the evening, and we will all be able to cross the Weishui the next morning."

  Yang Guo heaved a sigh of relief, and he said slowly: "Yes, you are very well-organized in your work, and you are a good descendant."

   "Uncle Shi is too famous. It was his uncle who arranged it in front of him, and his nephew was just running errands in the back."

   Li Huaian's uncle is Li Shidao, the head of the Li family in Zhao County. After all, he and Li Shen are actually the same generation.

   Yang Guo's brows, which had been loosened, furrowed again.

   "Speaking of Li Shidao, I haven't seen him for over a month."

   "Uncle, he brought people into Shu early in the morning."

Li Huai'an smiled and said, "This time it's a big thing, and my uncle doesn't dare to neglect. On the way to the west, I have to rely on my uncle and the others to take care of them. Moreover, what is going on in the southern border, and my uncle is still needed to call us in front of us? ."

   "So, what happened to the southern border?"

   "I heard... Li Shen has returned to Shu."

Li Huaian stretched out his hand to bake the fire, and then said softly: "I should have just arrived in Shu County at this time, but no matter what, Li Shen is the absolute core of the Pingnan Army. He escaped from the capital, and our odds of winning are much higher. ."

   "Li Shen came out."

   Yang Guo thought to himself.

If Li Shen died in the capital, most of the Pingnan Army in the southern border would fall into Li Yan's hands. Compared with Li Shen, Li Yan, a pure general, would have much more control over him, but now that Li Shen is back, then The plan of the Northern Zhou family to control the Pingnan Army and thus control the future national fortune can be said to be a failure.

  It's a pity...

  The white-haired Yang Patriarch, I don't know why, but now I suddenly regret it.

   He did not regret taking action against the inner guard, because at that time it was irreversible. What he regretted was that he should not have ordered his subordinates to concoct the disaster and report it to the court.

  From that step, the next step is unpredictable.

  Yang Guo slowly closed his eyes and muttered in his heart: "Forget it, don't bet on this one, the Wang family will be dead after two generations, it's better to take a bet, the ancestors and ancestors should also understand me."

  Thinking of this, he opened his eyes and looked at Li Huaian in front of him.

   "Li Shidao isn't here, why isn't one of Li Shidao's sons here?"

Li Huai'an's eyelids jumped, and then he frowned: "What does Uncle Shi mean? Everyone has been there for a few years before, but this time the matter was too big. Uncle took some people to the southern border to inquire about the situation in advance, and confirmed that the southern border can go. Let's follow it again, why is Shibo so concerned now?"

  Li Huaian took a deep breath.

   "I also have more than 2,000 people from the Li family in Zhao County. Does my uncle think about exterminating his own people?"

  Yang Guo was speechless.

  The carriage moved slowly, bit by bit, towards the direction of Weishui.

  Yang Guo lifted the curtain and looked at it, then sighed slowly.

   "As long as we cross the Wei River, even if the imperial court sends people to hunt us down, it should be too late. I hope nothing happens."

  Li Huai'an bowed his head slightly and said, "Uncle Shi, nephew still has a lot of work to do. If Uncle Shi has nothing to do, nephew will go down to work first."

  Yang Guo waved his hand, motioned the driver to stop, and put Li Huaian down.

   The "immigrant" brigade of more than 20,000 people slowly moved towards the Weishui River.

   There are the Cui Clan of Boling, the Lu Clan of Fanyang, the Yang Clan of Hongnong, the Li Clan of Zhao County, and the Zheng Clan of Xingyang.

   These five are big surnames, each of which is a noble family from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and without exception, each of them is a family that is gradually declining.

   That's why they risk everything.

   Because they didn't have much left.

   In the evening, the Wei River is in sight.

   None of the Li family members Li Huaian sent out to explore the way back.

   He had no choice but to bite the bullet and move on with the team.

   But what awaits him in front is not dozens of large ships on the Weishui River, but a full eight thousand distinctly armored imperial troops.

   When he saw the armor of the forbidden army, the whole person was dumbfounded.

   At this time, two young men were sitting on the horses at the front of this group of imperial guards.

   The young man in the back bowed his head respectfully to the young man in front.

   "Little Master, they have entered the network."

  Ye Mao traveled a long way, and finally came to the Weishui River before these Northern Zhou clans arrived.

  The Zhechong Mansion under his command has a total of 14,000 people.

   Now, directly in front of these Northern Zhou clans are 8,000 forbidden troops, while the other 6,000 are scattered on the two wings.

   These Northern Zhou clans cannot escape.

   Ye Mao glanced coldly at the noble families in front of him, and finally spoke flatly.

   "There are too many of them. For safety's sake, let go of the arrows and clear a batch before talking to them!"

The    messenger quickly conveyed Ye Mao's words, and the general order was quickly implemented among the well-trained forbidden troops.

   So, a volley of arrows was fired.

  Although the number of these Northern Zhou clans was larger than that of the Imperial Army, the soldiers and civilians were not at the same level of combat. When a salvo was fired, a large area fell, which was simply a massacre.

  Each feather arrow is lethal to ordinary people without any armor.

   More than 20,000 migrating Northern Zhou clans fell to the ground one by one.

During the period of   , it was accompanied by the cries of children and the screams of adults. Like purgatory on earth.

  Unfortunately, Li Huaian, who was not wearing armor, was also pierced by an arrow in his chest.

   It wasn't until the moment he fell to the ground that Li Huaian understood in his heart.

   These Northern Zhou families were abandoned.

  Myself and these Zhao County Li family members... were also abandoned.

  Reality is so cruel.
