Tide on the eight

"Lack of erection and conspiracy!" The head of the Liuqiu Su family woke up and scolded angrily, throwing the teacup on the bookcase to the ground. The fine magnetism of the official kiln is torn apart, and the unique fragrance of new tea wafts all over the room.

Su Heng, who was sent to the sea to liaise with the imperial court, came back, and this time, he did not bring back good news to the family like the envoy Wen Tianxiang. The Haixing Dynasty rejected the invitation of the Su family, and only gave the Su family a worthless title and plaque. This kind of cold attitude has cleanly and completely extinguished the awakened enthusiasm for serving the country.

From the geographical point of view, it is definitely a good strategic move to seek station. Wen Tianxiang's army was in Fujian, and the two families echoed each other and supported each other. Enter, you can attack Lin'an from the sea, and include the rich Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If you retreat, you can return to Liuqiu Island, and with the strength of the Su family and the Fang family, you can maneuver around the sea with the Northern Yuan.

The Mongol warriors were invincible on land, but at sea, they were not necessarily able to play with these maritime families. The example of the failure of the attack on Japan in previous years clearly proves this.

But Xingchao chose to go to Annan for help. You can trust foreign countries, and you won't trust your own people. This is a chilling thing, although the Su family did imply the idea of using the prestige of the imperial court to improve the status of the family when they issued the invitation, but their loyalty was at least much more reliable than that of Annanguo.

The subordination between states is as unreliable as a contract without a contract.

From the perspective of his own country's security, Annan will also reject the Great Song Dynasty. First, Annam did not have the strength to fight against the Mongols, and with the terrain, they could at most protect themselves from destroying the country, but they would not lend land to the Great Song Dynasty in any case.

Second, there are few small soldiers in Annan, and once the Great Song Dynasty drifts past, it is easy to turn against the guest. This kind of trick to lure the wolf into the house, unless the king of Annan is a fool, he will never do this.

"In my opinion, Prime Minister Chen Cheng went to Annan for help, and he may not know the final result. It's just that with his ability, this is already the last way to protect himself that he can come up with. Those people, the emperor dared to harm ......". Su Heng, the second master, said with a wry smile, beckoned the servants to come in, and took away the broken magnets on the floor.

He understands the awakening of the head of the family. Seeing that Wen Tianxiang was making a splash in Fujian, the Great Song Dynasty had hope for revival again. The Su family wants to get the greatest benefit from it, and the biggest credit is not Kuang Fu's work. Bring the little emperor and end the life of the courtiers adrift at sea. One can please the ministers, and the other can also increase the bargaining chips for future cooperation with Wen Tianxiang.

Who would have expected that Zhang Shijie was intolerant, and those places below were arrogant and too bold.

"Are you saying that now the Xing Dynasty has been completely controlled by that Zhang Shijie?" The head of the house woke up with his hands behind his back and sighed as he walked around the room.

"That's not necessarily, although Zhang Shijie is stubborn, he is not a treacherous and cunning person. However, those relatives and local heroes who came with soldiers and horses to defect were strong and fierce, and they fought fiercely for power and profit. Chen Yizhong couldn't do anything about them, but Wen Tianxiang might not show them mercy, so they refused to go to Fujian. As for why you don't come to ask for it, big brother, the lessons of the Pu family are there, although our Su family has been loyal for generations, the court will inevitably be on guard! ”

"That's the same thing!" The head of the family woke up and sighed, the anger in his heart was a little less, and he began to hesitate about the family's next move. "Second brother, you say, what should we do next?"

"On my way back, I heard that the Fang family has sent troops to join Wen Cheng!" Su Heng did not directly answer the words of the head of the family, he paid attention to his identity, this kind of thing that determines the fate of the family, he is only responsible for providing all kinds of information, not making decisions for the head of the family.

"Do you mean the Fang family's warship, this time, let the old Fang take the lead again!" Su Xing replied stupidly, a little frustrated that he had missed an opportunity. The main activity of the Fang family is to be a pirate, and the main activity of the Su family is to be a maritime merchant. The backgrounds of the two families are different, which leads to their different perspectives.

This time, when the Su family contacted Wen Tianxiang, they also set up a line of the court. The Fang family, on the other hand, firmly approached the Broken Army and threw the dynasty aside.

The Fang family is gambling for a while, which is in line with their pirate character. And the Su family wants to seek family interests from left and right.

"I've heard that Lord Wen can exchange artillery for artillery, and one ship and two hundred soldiers can be exchanged for one artillery! The cannon could hit two miles away at sea, and the sound was like a thunderbolt, and when the warship was hit, a big hole would immediately come out. With it, the Fang family has already forcibly annexed several pirates, and they have already recovered their capital! The young master Su Gang interjected loudly on the side, with envy in his words. He was somewhat dissatisfied with his father's flattering behavior at both ends. He didn't understand, what happened to his father, who had always judged accurately, what had already been decided, but he didn't do it for a long time, and let the Fang family seize the opportunity. "Wen Tianxiang is the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, and cooperating with Wen Tianxiang is not cooperating with the Great Song Dynasty. Dad, you have to make up your mind early, otherwise, we will be left behind by the Fang family! ”

"Hey!" Wake up and look at her passionate son and shake his head. There are some words, but I still don't let this stunned young man know well. Cooperation with Wen Tianxiang is not necessarily cooperation with the imperial court. Wen Tianxiang went to Fuzhou for nearly a month before he remembered to invite the imperial court to Fujian, isn't the problem here obvious? The Su family is not like the Fang family, any person under the banner of the Great Song Dynasty can cooperate, and he has to take care of the loyalty and righteousness of his ancestors. Once Wen Tianxiang has a disobedience to the court, the benefits and disadvantages of it make people have to think carefully.

"Or, according to what I said, let's form our own righteous army and raise troops to serve the king!" Seeing that his father refused to speak, the young master said eagerly. On this island far from the mainland, every day he heard how the Broken Army galloped across the field, which made his heart itch, and he longed to land the fleet immediately and join the chaotic tide that had not been encountered in hundreds of years.

Heroes emerge from troubled times. Chaos gives heroes a chance to rise and a reason to show their strength. Although there is only one hero in the end, the colorful processes are enough to make young people's blood boil.

"Don't panic, listen to your father's own plans!" Su Heng saw that the head of the family's face turned gloomy again, and stood up to play a round for their father and son.

Su Xing sighed again, looked at Su Heng, who had followed him for many years, and looked at his son, feeling a little tired. originally thought that Wen Tianxiang was a loyal minister, so he wanted to cooperate with him with pride. At present, many things have clearly overturned the original judgment. As the patriarch of a generation, he shoulders the fate of the entire family, so he has to be careful. But the current situation, which is changing like a tidal wave, does not allow him to think carefully about these things.

It turned out that he was eager to cooperate with Prime Minister Wen Cheng because he was optimistic about the development prospects of the Su family at sea.

Now I am cautiously considering cooperating with Prime Minister Wen because the development prospects are still there, but there are too many negative factors, once Wen Tianxiang has a problem, the Su family will be ruined.

That Wen Tianxiang is no longer the champion of the loyal and courageous Wen.

When Wang Mang was a corporal, once he broke away from the court and stood on his own, how should the Su family deal with themselves?

Silence, silence. As if thinking about it for decades, Su Xing finally made up his mind, raised his head, and said to Su Heng: "Second brother, the battleship that our family promised Prime Minister Wen has been built. ”

"Yes, so fast!" Su Heng agreed casually, not knowing what the head of the family wanted to say.

Su Xing smiled, and the smile looked indescribably bitter. In the face of interests, the Su family must gamble. Give him how long to think about it, and the ending is actually about the same.

"I didn't know why the second deck was so thick for the boat that Lord Wen wanted. Why should the portholes be that kind of fancy, openable and closing. In the past few days, I finally figured out that the place was equipped with artillery, and a ship could hold at least sixteen guns. It seems that when Lord Wen was in Shaowu, he had already calculated today! ”

Su Xing shook his head in admiration. I don't know whether to praise Wen Tianxiang's far-sightedness, or sigh that in such an era, everyone's actions are destined to be influenced by Wen Tianxiang.

"Shall we send him there?" Seeing the helplessness on the face of the head of the family, Su Heng asked tentatively.

Su Xing nodded, and replied in a low voice: "Can we keep it, this boat, he can entrust us to build it, or he can build it himself in Fuzhou, and even let the Fang family build it for him." Second brother, please go to Fuzhou again, send the boat there, and by the way, ask the Prime Minister what he commands, the Su family is willing to do the work of dogs and horses! ”

The atmosphere in the room was solemn for a moment.

Outside the window, dark clouds are rolling, and the summer storm is coming soon.

In the summer storm, the city of Guangzhou looked particularly haggard. In the past two years, the ancient city has changed hands five times, and less than a quarter of the city's residents remain, and all the prosperity has become a thing of the past.

A purple bolt of lightning slashed down from mid-air, followed by a scorched thunderbolt. The old trees on the side of the road cracked in response, and the branches flew away, flying into the courtyards on both sides of the road with a little spark. The courtyards were long gone, and some of the broken furniture in the houses were lit by the fire, and blue smoke rose from them, which was soon extinguished by the rain leaking from the tiles. Green smoke and mist linger in the wind and rain, and from a distance, the whole street looks like a ghost domain.

In the ghost domain, a group of soldiers in robes slowly walked out, and the centurion who led the team cursed in a low voice, cursing the damn weather and damn luck.

It is better to be a peaceful dog than a troubled world. In these chaotic times, there is really no fun at all in being a human being. Especially to be a man who has no choice and can't see the way forward.

Dachun's army had already gone to various places to "get food", and the total number of defenders left near Guangzhou was less than 20,000, and most of them were village soldiers who had not surrendered for a long time. The new annex army has low salaries and poor equipment, so its combat effectiveness will naturally not be too high. However, the city wall of Guangzhou City was demolished by Da Chun's idiot, saying that it was to prevent the Song people from recovering the city again. In this way, the barrier of the defenders is gone, but not far from the city, there is a vast sea.

The sea is a place where dragons can be hidden, and Zhang Shijie's army of more than 100,000 is hidden behind the rain curtain, and he doesn't know when he will kill him.

"Brother, you said, Lord Zhang won't land in this kind of weather!" A veteran asked, leaning behind the centurion, tentatively.

"It's hard to say, how can we little pawns know what the adults do!" The centurion smacked his lips and replied with a sigh, his deliberately long voice with a bit of mockery and a bit of loss.

In these chaotic times, closing your eyes and going with the flow may be the best option. If the adults are willing to surrender, they will surrender, and if they are willing to fight, they will do war, how can their minds and the pawns at the bottom see it clearly. Just like the envoy Xu Zhiliang of the year, he began to swear that he would die with the city, but before the Yuan army arrived, the representative who asked for surrender had already been sent to Longxing. Later, he suspected the official granted by the Northern Yuan, and rebelled against the Yuan again, and then, when the Yuan army pressed the border, he abandoned the city and fled.

Last year, Lord Xiong Fei returned to Guangzhou, which made everyone happy for a while. But soon, Lord Zhao Wei left without a fight in front of the Yuan army of thousands of Yuan troops. The villagers were all locals, and they couldn't leave their "broad-mindedness" of running away, so they had to surrender with the low-level generals. But the new attached army's livery has not yet been washed, and Lord Zhang Zhensun came to recover Guangzhou. Immediately afterwards, Lord Zhang Zhensun surrendered. Everyone once again stood under the banner of Dayuan.

The city head changes the banner of the king, and every time it changes, it is the ordinary people who suffer the most. And those officials who ate the Great Song Dynasty or the Great Yuan Yulu rose to the top in the process of surrendering again and again.

"Come on, come on, my family, Da Song's coat hasn't been thrown away yet!" The soldiers on patrol laughed wryly, and the paper armor indicating the identity of the new annex was revealed under their coats. The weather was damp, and the paper armor was already a little deformed, and the surface of the waxed surface was crumpled, and water droplets were constantly rolling down those wrinkles.

"After patrolling this street, go back and clean up, I guess, the day of changing clothes is almost over!" The centurion responded with a wry smile, despair clearly written on his black-brown face, "However, it won't be changed for a few days, Lord Dachun withdrew his army because he ran out of food." When he finishes cleaning up Chen Hang's eyes, he has to come back! ”

"Hey!" The soldiers shook their heads and sighed together, not knowing when such days would end. Whether the commander abandoned the city or surrendered the city, the Mongols had to have another excuse to plunder. After a few more lootings, this beautiful city will be almost destroyed, and whoever falls into it will lose its meaning.

"Ping!" A cannon was heard in the southeast, followed by a terrible trumpet from all directions.

"I said no, I said no, as soon as this tartar left, Lord Zhang will come back!" The veterans muttered, their eyes looking at the centurion in unison.

"What to see, hide first, it's important to save your life!" The centurion let out a shout, took the lead and got into the ownerless house on the side of the road, and as he ran, he began to untie the stumbling buttons and take off the coat and paper armor with the Beiyuan mark.

Dozens of soldiers quickly disappeared into the streets, into the closed houses, as if they had never been seen before. The wind and rain swept through the streets, covering all traces they had left behind.
