Chongqing Mansion in Shu, Sichuan Envoy and Governor of Chongqing Zhao Yingding looked at the people under the city with some puzzlement, there are both Song people he is familiar with, and Yuan people are dressed up, how did they form a piece and come here?

From the beginning of the year when the Tartars sent troops to besiege the city of Dongchuan, until Zhang Jue led the troops to help, and finally broke the siege, he received more than one wave of Tartar envoys to surrender. To be honest, there was indeed a hesitation during this period, if it weren't for the fact that there was such a foreign aid as Zhang Jue, the heart of the army in the city would not have been lost, and he would probably have surrendered like elsewhere.

But now that the siege has been lifted, and the Tartar Xichuan Department has just left, I don't know what the situation is along the way, why is there a messenger to persuade him to surrender?

"Bomb away with Ben Shuai and tell them, one day when Ben Shuai is there in Chongqing Mansion, he will never surrender to thieves." Anyway, he didn't plan to surrender, Zhao Yingding said it righteously, and even he was moved.

"Commander!"

As soon as he raised his feet and was about to go downstairs, he heard someone shouting behind him, Zhao Yingding turned around in confusion and waited for his reply.

"The people under the city said that he was an envoy of the imperial court, with an edict on him, and those Yuan people were also sent by the imperial court, how should we answer? Please also advise. ”

The words of the guard took him aback, the envoy sent by the imperial court? There are also Yuan people in the middle, aren't the two countries still at war, and if you don't understand it, you still have to figure it out.

"Let the man go into the city alone, and open the water gate to pick it up." Across a river, it is very difficult to talk and look at people, Zhao Yingding thought about it, he still has to let people in to distinguish it.

After a while, the person was picked up by the defenders, and the moment he saw the person coming, Zhao Yingding knew that this matter could not be wrong, because he knew this person and had been a colleague in Beijing.

"Zhao Shuai, it's really hard for you to enter Chongqing Mansion, a certain person has an edict in his hand, and only you are here to let a single person enter the city."

The person who came handed over a volume of documents while talking, Zhao Yingding couldn't care about the hustle and bustle, and unfolded it in his hand to take a look, sure enough, it was signed by the political hall, and the national seal was also used on it, he skimmed it, and already knew the general meaning, it turned out that the imperial court was negotiating peace with the Yuan people.

"I don't know if the angel is here, Zhao is rude, but why are you waiting to walk with Yuanren?" Zhao Yingding put away the edict and pointed to the city and asked.

"It's hard to say, but I can guarantee that they are indeed all messengers, and they are together to mediate the war in Shuzhong. Why did they not find the Tartars besieging the city until Chongqing Mansion this time, did they retreat? The messenger himself was puzzled, for the last time he had almost lost his life, this time it was so smooth sailing that he had never seen the shadow of the Tartar.

"The angel came from Fuzhou, and the siege was lifted over there?" Zhao Yingding did not answer, but asked rhetorically, if Fuzhou is relieved, it means that the transportation from Chongqing Prefecture to the mainland is feasible, which is a great news.

"Naturally, otherwise how can you get by, since Zhao Shuai has read the edict, it is better to let people in. If you're worried about the Yuanren, put them in one place and keep them under strict control. ”

Listening to the words of the envoy, Zhao Yingding was already a little moved, since the two countries made peace, there was no need to worry about the return of the Tartars, he glanced at the guard. Moments later, the gates were opened, and a group outside the city began to enter along the drawbridge.

Yan Zhongfan, the squire of the Dayuan Ministry of Works, rode a horse and followed the crowd, slowly stepping on the suspension bridge, the majestic mountain city was in front of him, and the steep place was no less than any place in Shu, no wonder it had not been captured for so long.

It was briefly in the hands of the Yuan people, but it was immediately recovered by the Song people, and it was at that time that he served as the Privy Council of Xichuan Xing, but unfortunately he did not succeed but suffered a defeat that he had never done in his life, and all his previous achievements were accompanied.

Just now under the city, he noticed that there were a large number of military tents on the other side of the river, and he thought that his own people were besieging the city, but who knew that they were all empty camps. His heart was full of questions, but he didn't want to ask the Song people, this mountain city was at his feet, but he was not a conqueror.

"Angel here, is there anything else?" On the tower of the city, Zhao Yingding and the envoys stood side by side, watching them enter the city, and he knew that these people would not run so far just for this matter.

"Zhao Shuai will be transferred back to Beijing, and the book will be made on someone, but it will not be read until another person arrives."

The vague feeling was confirmed by the messenger, Zhao Yingding was a little relieved, he really didn't want to stay in this place anymore, the Tartars are now retired, but who knows when he will come again, and he can return to Beijing safely, what is he unwilling to do.

"Oh, I don't know who else to wait for?"

"Your successor, Zhang Jue and Zhang Jiedu, I want to ask you to send him to Hezhou to invite him to come."

The envoy didn't talk nonsense and directly told him the answer, there was still some distance from Hezhou, he didn't want to go on another trip, anyway, Zhang Jue's place of appointment was in Chongqing Mansion, and it was only right to come and take over.

"Zhang Jieshuai, he's not in Hezhou." Zhao Yingding thought to himself that this was the case, the imperial court was quite reliable, and it was very suitable for Shuzhong to be handed over to Zhang Jue.

"Well, where is he then?" The envoy asked in surprise, it is taboo for the border guards to leave the place without permission, unless there is a last resort.

"Well, I don't know, the angel came from afar, you might as well rest in the city, and let Zhao do his best as a landlord. Zhang Shuai will be here soon, maybe there will be good news. Zhao Yingding is in a good mood, if he can bring back a victory news when he leaves, it will be perfect.

The envoy glanced at him, it didn't seem like he was selling Guanzi, he had walked left and right for so long, and he arrived safely, he couldn't distract his master, besides, he also wanted to know what this so-called good news would be?

Zhao Yingding really didn't know where Zhang Jue was, because he was neither in Hezhou nor in Shenjian City, but on the riverside not far from the city, which was the upper reaches of the Minjiang River, and from here to Hejiang County, the Minjiang River turned a bend of nearly ninety degrees, which made the flow of water on the river slower.

"Anyway, let them speed up, Zhao An doesn't have many people under him, I don't know if I can drag it out for a moment, in short, you can only rely on yourself now, and if you finish it in one more day, you will be more sure."

Zhang Jue's expression seemed to be calm, but in fact, he was already a little anxious in his heart, it had been three days since the city was captured, if the Tartars had gone fast, they should have passed Hejiang County at this moment, what would happen to Zhao An, he didn't have any bottom in his heart.

"The subordinates will go back to the city and recruit some more people, this is a battle to defend the land, and it is expected that the people will not refuse." Wang Shichang can only think of this, the sergeant is already in place, and there are not many people in his own hands, so he can only focus on the people.

"The people have already contributed a lot, if they could come, they would have come a long time ago, you don't have to be reluctant, aren't there still some prisoners in the prison, all of them are pulled up by Lao Tzu, and those who create evil can just use it ruthlessly, and it will be worth it if they die."

This is also a helpless move, the prisoner is not easy to use, and he is afraid of making trouble and running away, he can't work if he doesn't let him eat, and he has to guard against it when he is full, but now he can't take care of it.

"Thief God, it's been a long time since it rained, and if there was a heavy rain, there would be no need to die like this." After a while, he looked at the sky again, the sky was clear, the sun was scorching, and it seemed that in a short time, this God could not count on it.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm staring here, I won't make a mistake, it's a big deal, Lao Tzu jumped down and blocked it, I still don't believe it."

Wang Shichang's original intention was to make a joke and relax, Zhang Jue looked back at him, if it really worked, let alone him, even if he was willing to jump. They really don't have much time, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the Tartars will definitely learn a lesson in the future, and they will never have it again.

In Qiongya City in later generations, Liu Yu just walked out of the hotel gate, he refused the kindness of Su Wei and others to the airport, and it was not a long absence, he would come back in a few days, and now everyone in the company here is busy purchasing, why waste time.

"You can go back too, I won't be able to go for a few days, state that they will do the specifics, you will be responsible for the statistics, and when I come back, these materials must be prepared, they are all urgent. And I reminded you that you must remove all the labels before the materials are put into storage, you don't have enough manpower, go and recruit local villagers to do it, and pay wages according to the number of pieces. ”

Seeing that Su Wei was still a little reluctant, Liu Yu simply sent her a job, he had to go to a few places this time, and it was not very useful for Su Wei to follow, so it was better to stay here to help make a statement. As soon as he heard that he had something to do, Su Wei really didn't insist anymore, and told him to take care all the way and put him in a taxi.

This time he is not going back to Lin'an, but to Jiankang City, which is farther away, and it has been a long time since he went back last time, and he really wants to see what has become of the city.

After the crossing, in addition to the soldiers who stayed in the Shuai Mansion, there was also an unexpected candidate who came to meet him, which made Liu Yu breathe a sigh of relief, because he was also going to call him back, how much time was saved now.

"Qi Yu is too shou, his subordinate Li Shiyi has come to restore his life, this time, there are many disobedience, please be too shou to punish." The person in front of him made Liu Yu almost unable to let go, he looked like a wealthy businessman in the North, with a beard and a strong body, it seemed that even his temperament had changed a lot.

"You guy, but you have learned to block a certain thing with words first, and you have finished speaking, so tell me yourself, what are your disobedience, and what punishment should you receive?"

Liu Yu wrenched his face and pretended to be strict, which made Li Shiyi choke, he touched his head and sneered, and several pro-soldiers secretly laughed, didn't this lift a stone and hit his own feet.

"That's it, Shandong, you talk to someone about it." Liu Yu patted him on the shoulder, it was still some distance from the city, and they were talking as they walked.

It seems that the outside of the city is quite calm, Liu Yu remembers that the original houses in this area were forcibly demolished by himself before the siege of the Tartars, and some traces can still be seen now, but fortunately no one tried to rebuild, otherwise it would be a trouble at that time.

"Don't mention it, a subordinate went to the mountain with a familiar person, and the person fell down, but as soon as he heard that his subordinates were officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, his attitude immediately changed, this matter is a little tricky, and his subordinates are still thinking of other ways, but they can't compare with those people."

Li Shiyi's face was a little depressed, his journey was smooth, and he came and went freely in the enemy territory, but this matter was not done, but the Tartars were very well guarded in Shandong, even if there were some small characters, they couldn't help much, so he was not angry.

Liu Yu didn't blame him after hearing this, he had tried his best to call people back, and he originally had other plans, listening to him say it in detail, Liu Yu already had some music in his heart.

"Wufang, there is still room for change in this matter, when you go to Shandong this time, do you open the shop to Jinan Mansion?"

"Well, because of the convenience of doing things, so-and-so made the decision to open a shop in the city, but what's wrong?"

"That's not it, when you go back this time, remember to open a shop in one more place, just use it as a branch of Jinan Mansion." Liu Yu shook his head and dispelled his concerns.

"But please command." Li Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there was no mistake.

"In the past, Dengzhou in the Great Song Dynasty, now the Tatar is called Ninghai Prefecture, it should be by the sea, you open the same shop in the county, Brother Ning and their ship will contact you directly if it is possible, and cooperate with him at that time."

Li Shiyi wrote down the name of the place in his heart, which is not a difficult thing, but when he looks at Liu Yu's expression, it seems that there is a following.

"Before that, you personally took someone to this place, and you waited for a person there, this is the person's information, and after that, think of a way to capture him. Try to live, if you can't, corpses or heads, it's okay, it's the territory of the Tartars, so remember to be careful. ”

Took the paper handed over by Liu Yu, he stuffed it into his arms without looking at it, and listened to the tone of Taishou, it was a person who wanted to tie a Tartar on the ground of the Tartar, this thing was too exciting, Li Shiyi was a little excited, although he didn't know who it was, but it was definitely extremely important.
