Chapter 134: Angry at the crown
"Zhao Duofu, Zhao Duofu, you are really heartbreaking."
muttering this cheesy name in his mouth, Wang Song's heart was moved, and the romance between the girl's eyebrows appeared, and he couldn't help but feel stunned.
Thousands of miles away, when the mountains and rivers are broken, go north to find yourself......
is also as good as jade, regardless of the world's opinions, this kind of affection can be regarded as sincerity and sexuality.
"Xianggong, please send troops to help the princess quickly!"
The leopard fell to his knees, pleading. He has to save not only the princess, but also his brother.
"Brother Jiang, you mean that Kong Yanzhou killed a boat full of people?"
"The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled were killed, and the able-bodied men were taken away. Listening to the thieves, it seems that they are caught to be some kind of miner. ”
Wang Song nodded. Xuzhou Li Guojian, the territory of Panma Mountain iron production. At the time of Shenzong, there were 36 metallurgies, and the smelting workers reached 3 or 4,000 people, and the scale was huge. Kong Yanzhou's subordinates arrested these men, naturally to mine and smelt iron.
The leopard was taken down, and there was a lot of discussion in the lobby.
"The brutal murder of the Confucian thief is really an unforgivable crime and should be killed!"
After all, Li Bao was from a peasant family, and when he thought of the unarmed people being killed by Kong Yanzhou's department, there was a cold light in his eyes, and his face was extremely ugly.
"Xianggong, Kong Yanzhou robbed business travelers and cut off trade routes, in the long run, there are still businessmen there who dare to come to Hebei? Goods from Hebei could not be transported, and grain from Jiangnan and Lianghuai could not go north. For public and private, we have to destroy Kong Yanzhou!"
Huang Xin put forward a different point of view from another angle.
Those who stand in the way of people's wealth are like murdering their parents, and those who hinder people's future are even worse. Kong Yanzhou robbed the merchants, cut off the canal, and blocked the financial route of the loyal army. Isn't it worse to block the way of wealth and hinder the development of the loyal and righteous army than those who block the future of others?
Not to mention, Kong Yanzhou is a pseudo-Qi general, a minion of the Jin people, and a pioneer in attacking the Song Dynasty.
The territory of the Loyal and Righteous Army is only most of the two rivers, and the population is only four or five million, and the puppet Qi occupies Shandong, Hebei East Road, and Huaibei as much as me, not to mention that there is a huge Jurchen behind it. A bloody battle will inevitably be fought between the two sides, and it may not be easy for the loyal army to win.
What's more, if you want to attack Xuzhou, you have to pass through the boundaries of the Great Song Dynasty. At that time, if there is friction between the two sides, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses.
Sure enough, Li Ruoxu stood up and was worried on the side.
Although the Xuanfu Division was strong and strong, and the sailors also had many warships, it seemed too far-fetched to move the people to move through the area under the "control" of the Song Dynasty for the sake of a "woman".
Moreover, this "woman" has a special identity. Wang Song finally parted ways with the Great Song Dynasty, is it necessary to repeat the mistakes of the past and have another "lesson from Fuzhou"?
"Xianggong, the pain of Fuzhou, Yin Jian is not far away. Under the rule of Xuanfu Division, there were 100,000 soldiers and millions of people, and the severity of them had to be carefully weighed. ”
Li Ruoxu is really a big man in Hebei, his temperament is as fierce as fire, and he pointed at Wang Song's weakness in front of him.
Wang Song shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly.
This Li Ruoxu accused him in person, although he was honest and honest, he obviously underestimated him.
After the Battle of Fuzhou, he was already as hard as iron. Your own destiny, of course, must be in your own hands. Don't talk about the Zhao and Song royal families, even if Emperor Qin and Han Wu are reincarnated, he will never make peace.
"Xianggong, in the villain's opinion, since Kong Yanzhou hurts the heavens and harms reason, aids and abuses, and endangers merchant ships, while Fanzi has not yet gone south, we might as well destroy him, and by the way, even the north of the river will be occupied."
Li Bao, the chief general of the Loyal and Righteous Army's sailors, the new favorite of the army, what he wants at the moment is that he can't wait to make contributions. Otherwise, what is the use of him as a water master?
The north and south of the big river, up and down the big river, the blue waves and the sea, the loyal and righteous army sailors, can they only be in this acre and three points of land in Hebei
Going around? The generals of those sailors, did they watch the infantry and horse army gallop across the territory and fight in all directions, and their own sailors can only transport heavy grain and grass, soldiers and people, and become a decoration alone?
Afraid that Wang Song would hesitate and his reasons were not sufficient, Li Bao was on the side again and continued to indoctrinate Wang Song, who was silent.
"Xianggong, Fanzi ravaged Jianghuai, thieves rose to the peak, the imperial court moved south, and the looting of official ships can be seen. Jianghuai was the place where the imperial court and the puppet Qi were at war, and the people were displaced and the people were struggling to make a living. My loyal army relieved the people upside down, why not occupy the two Huai and return the people to a clear world?"
Wang Song raised his head, glanced at his favorite general, and laughed.
"Li Dutong, what you think is too simple."
Wang Song pondered for a moment before he spoke, relieving Li Bao's flushed face.
"If you want to occupy the two Huai, not to mention anything else, north of the river, Yangzhou, the famous capital of Huaizuo, is still in the hands of the imperial court at the moment, and the quasi-prince Zhao Gou is personally in charge. You say, should we make such a big move, risk the world's condemnation, and tear our faces with Song Ting?"
Zhao Gou organized and trained a new army in Yangzhou, and Lu Yihao strengthened and built a new city. If the loyal and righteous army fought with the Song army, wouldn't it be cheap to be a Jurchen who was eyeing it from the sidelines.
For public and private purposes, it is not appropriate to clash with the Song army at this moment, so as not to suffer from the enemy on the back.
Moreover, if Wang Song's prediction is correct, the Jurchens will soon move south from the Hebei East Road, and with the help of Liu Yu's army, they will attack Lianghe and Jiangnan. The Jurchens delusionally wanted to cut off the Cao Yun and isolate the two rivers, and there was a high probability that they would also capture Shaanxi and completely isolate the loyal army.
In this case, why don't the loyal and righteous army follow closely behind the Jurchens and wait for the opportunity to attack the Jurchens head-on.
"Xianggong, and the Great Song royal family, it's best not to have anything to do with it. Even if you want to rescue Princess Roufu, it is best to inform Zong Ze and the others in Tokyo City to send troops together, and our army's sailors will only play a helping role. ”
Li Ruoxu is still angry about rescuing Zhao Duofu. At a time when the situation is tense and the forces of all sides are fighting openly and secretly, every step taken by the loyal and righteous army must be extremely careful.
If it is really entangled with the imperial court, it is inevitable that the morale of the army will fluctuate and the people will be panicked. The Loyal and Righteous Army finally has the scale it has today, and naturally it cannot give up its previous achievements.
Li Bao saw that Li Ruoxu did not agree with his suggestion, so he no longer insisted. Li Ruoxu, who is Wang Song's confidant, since he does not approve of sending troops to rescue, this may be what Wang Song meant.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this officer has decided to send troops, and none of you can stop it."
Wang Song finally spoke, his face calm, but he was loud.
Li Ruoxu shook his head, and Li Bao's heart finally settled down.
"The princess is thousands of miles alike, regardless of the dangers of the rivers and lakes, and now she unfortunately falls into the hands of the enemy, I have tens of thousands of troops, if I don't go to the rescue, wouldn't it make the world laugh at me Wang Mou's unkindness, how can my conscience be safe?"
Li Bao grinned and said: "The husband is benevolent and righteous, and he is angry at the crown, which is the true color of the husband." The villain will go down to arrange, and the sailor warship will be ready to sail at any time. ”
Li Ruoxu shook his head. Since Wang Song was angry, he could only check and fill in the gaps.
"Xianggong, Xuzhou is close to the sea in the east, the Central Plains in the west, the Lunan Mountains in the north, and the Jianghuai Plain in the south, and the terrain is important. Moreover, Xuzhou's waterways are unobstructed, connecting the canal, which is a battleground for soldiers. Moreover, Xuzhou, the land of fish and rice, has a large population and the people are still martial and brave. Controlling Xuzhou is equivalent to controlling the mouth of the sea. Since Xianggong wants to send troops, in addition to saving people, he can also take advantage of the situation to occupy Xuzhou. ”
Wang Song nodded lightly. Li Ruoxu is a famous man in the world, and his vision is far-reaching, and he is afraid that the occupation of Xuzhou is the first step to the south.
controlled Xuzhou, just opened the mouth to the sea, and Huaiyan could also get a piece of the pie.
It's just that there are tens of thousands of defenders in Xuzhou, and I'm afraid I have to send a large army to go.
"Li Bao, you go down to arrange the sailor, and be ready to send troops at any time. This time it must be both land and water, and conquer Xuzhou in one fell swoop. ”
After a moment of deep silence, Wang Song said to the guard: "Call Zhang Henglai immediately, and say that there is a military consultation."
Seeing that Wang Song was noncommittal about occupying Xuzhou, Li Ruoxu shook his head in disappointment and gently retreated.
Li Bao smiled. This time, Wang Song is afraid that the army will go south, and his sailors will be able to show their strength.
Everyone left, and Wang Song was the only one left in the house, and he walked slowly around the house, never daring to show his brows.
"Zhao Duofu, Zhao Duofu, you are sincere to me, how can I repay this?"
Wang Song muttered to himself and sighed for a long time. Thinking of the old affection, I suddenly lost it.
The true love in the world is lost and regained, and what you get is not only the true love, but also the touching from the bottom of your heart.
In the Liguojian mine in Xuzhou, smoke and dust are flying, and countless miners and ants are generally busy on the mountain, completely fearless of the cold of winter.
Suddenly, a thin man who was working collapsed, and it seemed that he was too tired from working and eating and drinking too badly, and he couldn't hold on.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, what's wrong?"
The man with the leather whip came up, separated the crowd, and asked menacingly.
"Poor master, I'm so tired, I can't hold it anymore, and I fainted."
The surrounding miners nodded and hurried back.
"I fainted, I think it's pretending. Get up quickly, or I'll let you taste Lao Tzu's whip!"
The figure lying on the ground was motionless, and the male picked up the whip and was about to whip it down, but his wrist was grabbed by the stout miner next to him.
"Poor master, he is the younger brother of the villain, and his body is weak. Please also ask the master to be gracious, his work, the villain is willing to do it. ”
The public still has some conscience, not a vicious person. He waved his hand irritably, and scolded sharply: "Hurry up and help people down, don't make trouble, and wait for him to do his job!"
The stout miner nodded and bowed, and quickly carried the fainted thin man under the eaves of the house, scooped out half a scoop of water, and fed him slowly.
"Princess, wake up, you must not be fine!"
Seeing that Zhao Duofu drank water, he didn't wake up, and he was still dazed, Jiang Hu couldn't help but cry.
The duke sat in the shade of the tree, poured a few sips of tea, and saw that Jiang Hu and the two under the eaves had not come, and his eyes widened again.
"I said where you two died? Believe it or not, I'm going to kill you!"
If it weren't for the fact that Shangguan hadn't come to inspect, he wouldn't have dared to act so boldly.
Jiang Hu hurriedly came over, with a few more gold leaves in his hand, but he left Jiangnan that day and hid them in the soles of his shoes. Now there is no way but to take it out for emergency.
"Poor master, you take this, it can be regarded as a villain's filial piety to you. My brother is weak, and I hope you will take care of him, and he will be grateful in the future. ”
Seeing that it was a gold leaf, the duke's hand shook and looked around, the gold leaf quickly hid it, and pointed to the thatched house.
"Settle your brother in first, feed him more water, and don't let others see it!"
Jiang Hu helped Zhao Duofu into the hut, perhaps because he rested for a while, Zhao Duofu woke up in a daze.
"Jiang ...... Tiger, Wang Xiang...... Gonglai...... Is it ...... Yes? ”
Jiang Hu looked at Zhao Duofu, who was thin and unshaped, and couldn't help but shed tears.
"Princess, you have to hold on. Wang Xianggong will be here soon. ”
Jiang Hu was secretly anxious. I don't know if my younger brother escaped and ascended to heaven, and if Wang Song can lead the army to go?
Otherwise, he would have to bury his bones in this barren mountain.
It doesn't matter if he dies, the key is Zhao Duofu. If the princess dies here, he will not be able to redeem himself.
When the time comes, not only will the Great Song Dynasty court not be able to spare him, but Wang Song will not be able to spare him.
Wang Song, you should hurry up!
