Just when all the defenders in Tanzhou City were sent out of the city, and even the messengers and even ordinary people were used to fill the number, suddenly a group of soldiers and horses came from the direction of the lower reaches of Xiangshui, and they walked very slowly, because the official road was blocked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Liu Yu, who received the news, thought that Li Shiyi had something urgent to return, but when he got closer, he saw that the person who came was playing the banner of the Hengzhou Terracotta Division, and the leader was a civil official like him, and the people who followed him were afraid that there were not even a thousand people, what were they doing?

At this point, not only Liu Yu was a little puzzled, but Yin Gu of Zhihengzhou, who was sitting on the horse, also had questions, and when he received the order to clear the countryside issued by the system, he had a bad premonition, because this was a very abnormal behavior, and then saw the flow of people going south along the way, and he didn't mean to stop, so he had the idea of taking such a trip.

When I entered Tanzhou City, this feeling was even stronger, the city had been ten rooms and nine empty, the original prosperous commercial port was withered, even the fireworks and willow alleys were closed, and what was even more frightening was that the city gate was unguarded, there were no soldiers at the head of the city, except for the banner of the Great Song Dynasty, it was like an abandoned thing.

"Everyone's name!"

However, when he arrived at the gate of the Division, he finally had some vigilant appearance, his horse was unceremoniously stopped, and he knew that the origin was extraordinary when he saw the dress of those sergeants, Yin Gu did not dare to break in, and after falling off the horse, he was dressed properly and reported his name.

"The next official is Hengyang Shouyin Valley, please report to the commander."

After being brought in, he who had been here also found something wrong, not only did he not see a familiar subordinate of the department, but even those who came in and out were no longer clerks, but all sergeants.

It wasn't until he was led to the door of the lobby with his own soldiers, and listening to the voice coming from inside, he didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings, because it was not the tone of Jingnan Marshal Huang Wanshi's slight Jiangxi accent at all, but a very young voice, which he had never heard before!

“...... The miners of Jiaoxi Silver Place, together with their families, must be persuaded to leave, you decide what to do, don't take the Tanzhou line when you come back, go to Liling and Youxian into Hengzhou, so as not to congest the official road and make it inconvenient to pass. ”

"So many taels of silver, do you want to send more men?" The other voice was equally unfamiliar.

"You also saw it, there are so many people here, you go over first, wait for them to come back a little later, this official asked Jiang Zhaofu to send a team of cavalry to respond, and meet in Liuyang County."

When the matter was almost dealt with, the person who came hurried out with his instructions, Liu Yu's eyes were still on a map of the big case, and it was not until the soldiers reminded him that he turned around and looked at the uninvited guest in the hall.

Hengzhou is the first stop after leaving Tanzhou, a large number of people will gather there, and then continue to go south, at this time, the governor of a state is not good to stay and deal with civil affairs, what are you doing here? With such emotions, when he watched the person step by step, his vision was a little unkind.

"Xiaguan Yin Gu, I don't know who Your Excellency is?" The other party was dressed in a purple suit, openly occupied the system department, and gave orders there, and he had not received the edict of the change of commander in the imperial court before, even if he was puzzled, Yin Gu still did enough etiquette, and the left and right would not be any bandit strongmen.

"This official is the Guangxi Luchen and Jinghu Envoy, and he has come to the aid of the edict, your Huang Zhishuai has fled alone, and the supervisors of all roads are nowhere to be found, as a last resort, this official will sit in the town and act, Yin Zhizhou, why did you leave the city and come to Fucheng?" Liu Yu didn't have the heart to go around in circles with him, and asked directly.

Yin Gu raised his head in shock, only then did he remember that half a month ago, a team under the banner of Guangnan Soldiers and Horses passed by his jurisdiction, and they didn't even stop, and all of them were cavalry, but there was no honor guard in Luchen, how did this young commander arrive? As soon as he thought of this, he unconsciously lost his mind, and it was not until the other party's stern gaze shot over him again that he reined in his mind and bowed.

"The lower officials don't know, they have offended a lot, and they hope to forgive their sins." Liu Yu was unmoved by his politeness, and Yin Gu hurriedly explained: "A few days ago, I suddenly received an order from the commander of the system, asking us to persuade the people in the territory to retreat, and then I saw a large number of people coming from Tanzhou, which made the people in the state panic, and the officials were not talented, and they wanted to come to Fucheng to find out, but they didn't expect to meet Fu Shuai here." ”

was mentioned by him like this, Liu Yu suddenly remembered, in history Li Fu guarded Tanzhou, the whole road to help seems to be this person, but things have changed, he is still like this, I really don't know whether it is the inertia of history or the character, how much can be regarded as loyalty to the country, Liu Yu's face has eased a lot, no longer the previous sharp.

"The Yuan people have occupied the county seat of Xiangyin, only a hundred miles away, and Dutong Miyou led the army out of the city, in order to delay the footsteps of the Tartars, so that the people have a time to escape, and it is difficult to predict how long it can be delayed. Yin Junshou, you have also seen that most of the people in the city have been evacuated, and the rest of the counties are also on the road one after another, and in the end, the official will also leave, it is inconvenient to travel today, early tomorrow morning, you will bring people back, and Hengzhou also needs you to dispatch. ”

"Tanzhou City was abandoned like this?" Liu Yu's words surprised him.

"If you can't hold it, there's no need to hold on, if you abandon it today, he will take it back one day, what we want to fight for is not the gain or loss of one city or one place, but the whole world." Because the position of the other party was very critical, Liu Shenstick had to flicker a few more words.

"Xia Guan knows." Yin Gu nodded, did not argue with him any further, but turned his head to look at the map on the case.

"What Fu Shuai just said was Jiaoxi Silver Field?"

Liu Yu knew that he had heard his conversation just now, and also nodded, Jinghu South Road is a silver producing area, and there is Guiyang Prison, one of the three major silver supervisors of the Great Song Dynasty, which was later upgraded to the Guiyang Army, in addition, the territory of Liuyang County in Tanzhou is the famous "hometown of fireworks" in later generations, and there is also a silver pit in this time and space, that is, the Jiaoxi Silver Field in Yin Gu's mouth.

And Yin Gu also meant when he said this, because his territory was at the junction with the Guiyang Army, which was the largest silver field on the whole road...... The location of the Tanyuan silver field, after arriving in Nandu, those silver fields located in Jiangbei were occupied by the gold people, and the rest of Jingnan and Fujian and other places were the only silver producing areas in the Great Song Dynasty, which is why there are so few silver and copper coins available for circulation in the market.

Of course, Liu Yu will not leave these things to the Yuan people, not only will he have to transport away the silver stored in them, evacuate the miners, but even the potholes, tools, and mine shelves will all be destroyed, such a relentless approach makes Yin Gu amazed, but also recognizes the other party's intentions.

"The silver field supervisor is a subordinate official of the lower officials, a certain line of writing, please take over the handsome, there are still more than 30,000 taels of silver in the Hengzhou treasury, all of which are produced this year, and they were originally intended to be sent to the capital after the New Year, but because of the turbulent situation, they have not been delayed for fear of failure, and these are also taken away. With the example of the people of Tanzhou in front, it is not difficult to say that it is not difficult to move them, but it is really hard to sleep in the open along the way. ”

The other party's words seemed very cooperative, exactly what Liu Yu needed, and he didn't think too much about it for a while, until Yin Gu withdrew, he seemed to come back to his senses, this person babbled for a long time, how did he feel like explaining the future?

Without waiting for Liu Yu to figure it out, his personal soldiers came to report that the team out of the city came back, and after a while, Jiang Cai and Mi You came together, and the faces of the two of them did not have the slightest joy, but looked a little dignified.

"If you don't get it, you don't have to, scare them back, it's a goal, you don't have to do it." After listening to the report of the two, Liu Yu thought that they were unhappy about it, so he smiled and comforted him.

The other party is all cavalry, and the terrain in this area is not undulating, not enough to find a battlefield environment full of ambushes, the enemy is alert, and immediately chose to avoid the battle, running faster than a rabbit, it is also a normal thing, after all, it is a real opponent, not a monster NPC without thoughts for you to brush experience.

"I'm afraid it will backfire." It was Jiang Cai who spoke, and Mi You on the side obviously had the same idea as him, and Liu Yu put away his smile when he heard it.

"The enemy came to find out the truth of our army, although the infantry of the Midu Tong mixed with many people, but with the ability of the enemy generals, they may not be able to hide it, once they have suspicions, it will expose our intentions, imagine that in such a situation, will they still stand still?"

Jiang Cai made sense, Liu Yu's eyes returned to the map on the case, coming from Xiangyin County, the foot soldiers only need to take up to three days, if the opponent is not Zhang Hongfan, this possibility may not be great, but that person is a madman, he will never follow the convention, staring at the location of Xiangyin County, Liu Yu's heart sank suddenly.

"We have to prepare for the worst, within today, the evacuation of all the people must end, Jiang Zhaofu, this road from Xiangyin County, you have to harass at all costs, you can't let them go smoothly, in this way, there should be three to four days, Mi Dutong, you and your people will go on the road now, even if it is strong, let the people go faster, otherwise it will be too late."

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yu made up his mind, the matter was provoked by him, for the sake of these people who were fooled on the road, he also had to take a risk, and this price was Jiang Cai's cavalry, because this is the only force that the enemy is afraid of, and only they can play a role in containment, and how much sacrifice there will be in the end, I can't care about it in front of me.
