Chapter 600: Caution

Liu Mengyan and Wang Jiweng hurriedly left Fucheng under the escort of the Song soldiers, and after boarding the ship day and night along the way, the two immediately ordered to set sail, until the coastline of Qiongzhou disappeared from sight, and it was a great relief to see that there was no Song boat tracking around.

"It's too ruthless, this kid is too ruthless!" Liu Mengyan muttered after drinking a large glass of water, as if he hadn't struggled out of the panic yet.

"Yes, he dared to cut off the title of the empress dowager and the former emperor, take back the golden book, expel the clan, and announce it to the world. How different is this from usurpation! Wang Jiweng and their journey found that all the towns and villages along the way were posted with notices, saying that they wished the Queen Mother and Emperor Deyou to betray the country, and did not think of resisting the enemy, but helped the enemy to persuade them to surrender, so they were severely punished. And this practice of naturalizing all the empress dowagers, former emperors, and clans that accepted the title of the enemy can be said to be unprecedented and shocking.

"This son does have something extraordinary, if he was made the emperor back then, instead of a waste living in the capital, the Great Song Dynasty may not be able to reach this point!" Liu Mengyan believed what Liu Huang said at the time, even if he was treated inhumanely, he couldn't help but praise him.

"Well, this kid is decisive at a young age, and he is good at scheming, which is terrifying! This not only boosted morale and deterred those with dissent in the court, but also cut off the possibility of Emperor Deyou returning to the court, so that no one could shake his throne. Wang Jiweng also said with admiration, thinking that his move seemed to show his determination to resist the Yuan, but it also swept away the potential contenders, which was much more clever than Emperor Gaozong's set, so that he was no longer afraid to do things.

"Indeed, you can see that Liu Di and Xu Zongren and others are loyal to follow, the unruly Wen Tianxiang is also suppressed by him, and Zhang Shijie, who is in charge of the military alone, has to bow down and obey orders. He has such a clever means at such a young age, if he gets older in a few years, he will definitely become a fierce rival of Dayuan! Liu Mengyan thought that the Great Song Dynasty had not had such a strong monarch for several generations, and if he was in the court, he might not be his opponent, so he had to let him play to death, and sighed secretly and said with palpitations.

"I'm afraid it's enough to sweat and have a headache, I don't know if Han Fu has ever noticed that the land along the river in the prefectures and counties along the way has been reclaimed, and the rice harvest in the fields is in sight. And there are many traders in the grass market, all kinds of items are complete, and the price is cheaper than that of Jiangnan; Look at those peasants with satisfied faces, merchants with happy faces, and those slang people are also neatly dressed, and there is no obstacle to going out of the state and the government. It can be seen that Qiongzhou is not the Qiongzhou of the past, it is already a happy land for the people! Wang Jiweng nodded, agreeing very much.

"This is true of what the good minister said." Liu Mengyan said, "I heard how the Qiongzhou Navy was strong, first defeated Liu Shen, then defeated the Liangguang Navy Army, and then destroyed the Jinghu Navy led by Zhang Hongfan. But when I saw the Qiongzhou Lingao Water Division, I was convinced, you see that those soldiers are poorly dressed and armored, but they are well-groomed, well-trained, and have rules for their actions and actions, and their morale is very high, which is a little stronger than the most elite Huai army back then. With such an army stationed in Qiongzhou, if you want to cross the sea to attack, you are afraid of all difficulties! ”

"Hanfu feels the same way!" Wang Jiweng said with some surprise, "I also saw that there were no less than 500 large and small warships moored in the camp in the high water, and most of them were large ships and huge ships. It is said that this is still just a water village, and the Baisha water village in Qiongzhou is less than three points, and the coast is a forest of forts, and the defense is tight. Now the naval armies of the southeastern provinces have been completely lost, and the Great Khan ordered the shipyards of Mingzhou, Quanzhou and Zhuzhou to build 600 warships, and requisitioned 30,000 coastal Ding Zhuang as soldiers to prepare for the attack on Qiongzhou. ”

That's true. If the Great Khan mobilized all the troops in the southeast to attack Qiong, the troops of Liangguang would be empty, and at this time, Annam and Champa would take the opportunity to send troops to attack, and they could easily succeed. And if you lose to Qiongzhou again, the southeast elite will be lost, and the south of the Yangtze River will be in danger! Liu Mengyan said with a solemn face.

"The situation is urgent, we should present it to the Great Khan as soon as possible, so that we can make plans as soon as possible!" Wang Jiweng said urgently.

"Liangchen, I know your thoughts, but this matter is important and needs to be cautious, otherwise it will backfire!" Of course, Liu Mengyan knows his partner very well, and knows that he is eager to grab credit, so that he can get the favor of the Great Khan and soar. But he also knew that the Yuan Dynasty was not as good as the Song Dynasty, and although they were able to confer high-ranking officials, they were not close ministers.

What does Hanfu mean by this? Could it be that there is a secret in it! Wang Jiweng has no great talent, but his brain is extremely active, although he was seen through his heart, he still asked with a smile.

"This time, you and I were ordered by the Great Khan to surrender the remnants of the Song Dynasty, and before leaving, the Great Khan personally summoned us and gave us high hopes. But this time, not only did he fail to surrender, but he ......" Liu Mengyan smiled bitterly and looked at Wang Jiweng What he meant needless to say that you also understand, and then continued, "The Mongols are the most important to their own race, followed by the Semu people, and then the northerners, and we southerners are the most despised. The Great Khan reuses us and others to be jealous of others, and if he fails to complete his mission this time, someone will slander and slander him, and if he speaks again, he is afraid that the Great Khan will be disgusted! ”

"Hanfu, although the surrender was unsuccessful this time, we found out about the alliance between Yu Sin and Annan and Champa, which is also a great achievement. Moreover, I found out the truth of Qiongzhou, I think that even if the Great Khan is not rewarded, he will not be punished! Wang Jiweng said.

"If we truthfully tell Qiongzhou how strong the soldiers and horses are, we will advise us to slow down the attack on Qiongzhou. Even if the Great Khan does not doubt it, there will be people who will say that we have not forgotten the old master, confuse the Great Khan, and try to make the remnants of the sins breathe. In other words, it means that we are traitors sent by the Song Dynasty, and even if the Great Khan is lenient, he will never allow the existence of traitors around him, and he will definitely alienate us. Liumengyan said.

"Then how does Hanfu think he is good?" Wang Jiweng also understood that if they lost the trust of the Great Khan, they would not be able to gain a foothold in the court at all, and it would be a dream to soar to the top.

They sent an envoy to persuade the Empress Dowager Yu to unite against Dayuan and divide the land south of the Yangtze River. And the Qiongzhou naval army is indeed strong, and it is necessary to be cautious in attacking it across the sea, as for attacking or not attacking, don't say much! Liu Mengyan said.

"Then do you want to tell the puppet emperor at the same time?" Wang Jiweng nodded and asked again.

"Liangchen is really confused, if he hadn't experienced it himself, who would have believed that a nine-year-old naughty boy would have such a ability. Tell me, doesn't it show the incompetence of the generals and us in the south of the Yangtze River? Seeing that he was still not enlightened, Liu Mengyan said a little angrily.

"Yes, yes, Hanfu taught you a lesson!" Wang Jiweng said in a sneering manner......
