Chapter 167: Mr. Treeman's Terrier

There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below.

This is not something that is said casually.

After thousands of years of development, Jiangnan has become the richest place in Zhao and Song Dynasty.

Here in Hangzhou, a large number of officials, wealthy merchants and landlords gathered. It is the most important place of wealth gathering in Jiangnan.

Although he suffered continuous military disasters before, he was also set on fire by Fang La, and suffered heavy losses.

But Hangzhou City, which is registered with more than 200,000 households alone, is still precipitated with countless wealth.

Wang Xiao can pull the king to give them a horse.

First, you can have a good relationship with the Western Army, and second, you can keep a low profile and hide behind the Western Army to continue to accumulate strength.

However, the benefits that should be collected still have to be collected.

It's not interesting to blackmail the Western Army, and a group of bitter haha can't squeeze much oil and water.

Therefore, on the one hand, Wang Xiao wanted to open a warehouse to release grain, and on the other hand, he instigated the Western Army to extort the rich households in the city.

Hangzhou City originally gathered countless grain and straw materials in the south of the Yangtze River, and after Fang La captured this place, he also treated it as his own nest.

There are a lot of various materials hoarded in the city.

In the name of helping the victims, I wrote another sentence about the robbery and arson, and the losses were innumerable. How much you want to intercept from it depends on Wang Xiao's conscience.

For Zhao Song, Wang Xiao's conscience has always been relatively dark.

As for letting the Western Army pay or something, that is, the words are not clear, but the generals of the Western Army all understand.

People have done you a great favor, you should always say something, right?

I don't let you pay for it yourself, but I just let you come forward to be a wicked person to help you get money, what is it?

They are the Western Army, and they patted their butts and left after the battle, so what can the people here do.

Wang Xiao got the benefits and got face.

The Western Army was exempted from responsibility and shared the credit.

Looking at it this way, it is actually a happy situation.

The generals of the Western Army, who had a sad face before, suddenly smiled, and after solemnly saluting Wang Xiao, they went out to do errands.

When everyone left, the smile on Wang Xiao's face gradually faded.

"Hurry up and fight, it's time to go to Yanyun after the fight. Western Army, hey. ”

When the news of Fang La's capture came out, the morale of all departments was greatly boosted.

When the news reached Bianliang City, Zhao Ji danced excitedly, and immediately ordered Fang La to be escorted to Bianliang City.

Wang Yu and others do not fight for merit, and in fact there is nothing to fight for. all said that this battle was mainly fought by Wang Xiao, and Fang La was also caught by Wang Xiao.

Gao Yu and the others were in a good mood, and happily wrote a letter to Wang Xiao, asking him to make persistent efforts to exterminate Fang Layu's party, and they would operate for Wang Xiao in the court.

The only one who is unhappy is Tong Guan.

Tong Guanyan, who felt that he had lost face, ordered the various departments to stop advancing, and started a lawsuit with Bianliang City.

Fang La was indeed arrested, but Fang La's remnants were still there. They gathered their troops and horses in Qingxi, and continued to resist under the command of the second prince Fang Bo.

There is still a war in front, and there is already a lot of arguing in the back for the credit.

Zhao Ji and others all thought that Fang La's main force was wiped out, and Fang La himself was arrested. Then the follow-up crackdown on bandits is an easy little thing.

In order to compete for credit, the various factions in the DPRK and China are making noise back and forth.

Even Tong Guan ordered the front not to fight again, and sat back and watched the rest of Fang La's strength recover.

Wang Xiao didn't care about any of this.

He leisurely trained soldiers and horses in Hangzhou.

After arguing and shouting for more than a month, Fang La was tortured in Bianliang City. This quarrel for power has come to an end.

Wang Hao, Gao Yu and others succeeded in having the last laugh with Wang Xiao capturing Fang La and destroying the main force of Fang La's army.

The soldiers and horses of the Western Army gradually withdrew from Jiangnan to prepare for the more important Northern Expedition to Yanyun.

Wang Xiao was appointed as the pacification envoy of the Liangzhejiang Road, responsible for the follow-up clean-up of the rest of Fangla.

Tong Guan's family seems to have suffered a loss, and they have lost their troops for a few months but have no credit. However, they succeeded in trapping Wang Xiao in Liangzhejiang Road to suppress bandits, and the errand of cutting Yan with greater credit fell into the hands of the Western Army.

When the news reached Wang Xiao, he was not angry, but kept laughing.

Anyone who has read the history books knows that the result of the Western Army's attack on Yan was a big defeat. The magnitude of the losses is simply staggering.

In the end, he spent money to buy the land of Yanyun from the hands of the Jin people, so that the Jin people saw through the fact that the Great Song Dynasty was weak.

But the people of this era, they don't know.

In the eyes of the Song people, the Liao State had already been defeated by the Jin people. The land of Yanyun is just a group of remnants of defeated soldiers, and it is impossible to stop the army from conquering.

Moreover, most of the people in the north are Han Chinese, as long as the army drives over, it will definitely be a pot pulp to welcome the king.

In Tong Guan's view, this is a low-hanging fruit.

Zhao Ji has already announced that the one who has succeeded in cutting Yan is the king. He is about to be crowned king.

In Wang Xiao's eyes, he can expand his strength in Jiangnan. Wait until the Western Army is defeated and then go north to clean up the mess with the posture of a savior.

Everyone has their own plans, and as for who can have the last laugh, it must be Wang Xiao, who has mastered the direction of history.

The Western Army began to gradually withdraw from Jiangnan and went to assemble near Bianliang City to prepare for the northern expedition to Yanyun.

On the first day of April, Wang Yu came to resign, and Wang Xiao invited him to dinner.

"Pacify the envoy, the kindness of Fang La's affairs. My king is unforgettable. In the future, if there is any sending, only a letter is required. Wang had no excuses. ”

Wang Yu is really grateful to Wang Xiao.

If it weren't for Wang Xiao taking the initiative to share the credit, he would cover them up. None of the generals under the king's endowment could end well.

This is not to pull him to get rich together, this is to save his net worth.

Wang Xiao nodded in response, picked up the wine jug and poured him wine, "Wang Tong, when you say this, I really want to ask you for help." ”

"Please."

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "I heard that Liu Jiedu of the Baoxin Army has a fierce general under his command, and he is brave and unparalleled. Sanya allowed me to hold the right wing of the Japanese army and form another battalion leader this time, and I want to ask this man to be a battalion officer in the future. ”

"Liu Yanqing?" Wang Yu was slightly stunned, then thought about it and said, "Isn't it Han Shizhong that you are talking about?" ”

Han Shizhong joined the Western Army when he was young, and was known for his bravery and meritorious service. Although his status in the Western Army is not high, he is only a general, but his reputation is extremely loud.

He didn't come out because there was no one in the court.

Wang Xiao laughed: "It's this person." ”

The change of commanders in the forbidden army is nothing new. Moreover, Han Shizhong's status is not high now, and when he comes to Wang Xiao, he can directly sit in the position of the head of the camp, which is definitely a high promotion.

But the question is whether Liu Yanqing is willing to release him.

Wang Yu, who was a little embarrassed, saw Wang Xiao's smile, remembered that he had patted his chest and said that he would never shirk if he had any dispatch, and immediately raised his wine glass, "This matter is wrapped up in Wang." ”

"Then thank you for the king's rule."

The next day, Wang Xiao went out of the city to see off Wang Yu.

However, after giving it away, he did not leave, but waited outside the city.

Since learning that he was appointed as the pacification envoy of Liangzhejiang Road, Wang Xiao sent Hu Cheng to Hujiazhuang to pick up Zhao Fujin and Hu Sanniang.

Today happens to be the day they arrive in Hangzhou.

In the early afternoon, several horse-drawn carriages slowly drove along the official road.

Seeing Hu Cheng and the others who were guarding on horseback next to the carriage, Wang Xiao got up and greeted him.

"General." Hu Cheng and the others stepped forward to salute.

"Good work." Wang Xiao nodded to them and got into the carriage directly.

Pushing the car door, I saw Zhao Fujin's shoulders trembling slightly, and tears rolled out of his eyes like broken pearls.

Wang Xiao was stunned: "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm glad."

Hu Sanniang on the side is still so heroic, and her long legs are so eye-catching even if they are bent in the car.

"When I heard that we were going to be picked up in Hangzhou, I cried happily and didn't sleep all night."

Wang Xiao couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward to sit down beside Zhao Fujin.

Raised his arms and hugged Zhao Fujin and Hu Sanniang, "Don't think too much, I will accompany you well in the future." There are many places to visit in Hangzhou. Rest for two days first, and I'll show you around. ”

The western army is gradually retreating, and the two battalions of soldiers and horses under Wang Xiao are surrounding Qingxi, but the blockade line is not firm at all.

The remnants of Fang La gathered in Qingxi County, and it was difficult for the team to enter and exit, but there was no obstacle for the team to enter and exit.

Wang Xiao said to the outside world that it was to put pressure on them and let them collapse on their own.

In fact, the plan was to let the rest of Fangla, which was scattered all over the country, concentrate on Qingxi County, and transport all the grain, grass and goods into it.

Don't think that Fang La is really a good man who is the master of the people, after he got up, he instigated the four fields with Manichaeism, and every time he went to a city, he would burn houses, plunder the children of gold silk, and lure good people to join the army to fill the number.

What he did was not much more than that of the heroes of Liangshan.

swept 52 counties in six states, and they were all extremely wealthy Jiangnan prefectures. The wealth looted by Fang La's army was an astronomical amount.

Wang Xiao's real purpose is to spend this huge amount of money.

It's raining again in Hangzhou.

The place where Wang Xiao lives was borrowed by a local businessman. The inner corridor courtyard attic, the garden pavilion is extremely beautiful.

The drizzle drips down, washing the white stone and green tiles exceptionally clear.

Zhao Fujin was wearing a fair-skinned long skirt, holding an umbrella and pulling Hu Sanniang, who was wearing a lake-green long skirt.

Wang Xiao, who was lying by the window, looked at the scene in front of him and sighed in his heart.

"This is the real lady picture, a lady picture without the slightest deduction."

There are countless short videos of all kinds in the modern world, but the women in those videos are all packaged and acting. With the smell of earthly fireworks and copper.

Zhao Fujin and Hu Sanniang went out to incense and returned, walking through the corridor, like an ink painting.

Zhao Fujin, who took the umbrella and entered the door, saw Wang Xiao and looked happy, "Official, we are back." ”

The corners of the woman's skirt were stained with water, and her jet-black hair was drenched in the rain, sticking to her fair sideburns. The beauty is breathtaking.

"Let's eat."

At the dinner table, watching Wang Xiao and Zhao Fujin pouring wine with each other, Hu Sanniang had lemons in her heart.

"Sister." Hu Sanniang pushed Zhao Fujin, "It's been so long, I don't know my sister's name." ”

Hu Sanniang pursed her lips and chuckled, "My surname is Zhao." ”

'Ahem~~~'

Wang Xiao almost sprayed the drink.

A strong stalk of Mr. Tree Man came, and Wang Xiao really couldn't hold back.

Hu Sanniang really didn't understand, what did this mean.

"Don't ask so much." Wang Xiao picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Hu Sanniang, "Her identity, when my plan is completed, I will naturally tell you." ”

Wang Xiao was very cautious, once the news of Zhao Fujin by his side leaked out, it would bring unforeseen trouble.

Before he took down Yan Yun and stood on his feet, even Hu Sanniang would not tell him.

"Alright, eat, drink. The artistic conception of the drizzle outside is so good, wait for us to fight the landlord. ”
