After Zhao Dongting left Huazhou, he continued to the north to the territory of Rongzhou, and always walked in front of the Tiankui army for about several hours.

Not surprisingly, the farther away from Leizhou, the center of development, the people's livelihood gradually withered. Relying only on the navigation trade of Leizhou, it is obviously impossible to make the entire Guangnan West Road rich in a short period of time.

However, with the support of the Great Song Dynasty to tighten its belts and live a life, the official road is no longer as potholed as before, and has been filled.

Zhao Dongting walked all the way and looked at the people's livelihood conditions in the cities he passed along the way, and kept them in his heart.

Although Lu Xiufu, Chen Jianghan and others are all capable ministers, the general direction obviously has to be controlled by Zhao Dongting, a future traverser.

Dividing fields, building roads, and driving trade with special products are the general tone set by Zhao Dongting.

Nowadays, Leizhou, Huazhou, Gaozhou, Nanenzhou and other coastal cities have reached the final stage due to the development of maritime trade, and the next road that should be taken is to build water conservancy, run schools and medical offices, and then focus on the implementation of the military service system. Inland cities such as Rongzhou have only just stepped on or completed the road construction stage, and now the national treasury is empty, and the central government is unable to subsidize the local government.

Zhao Dongting actually had a prediction about this in his heart, so he was not surprised, but he was not disappointed.

After the fields are divided, the people can have something to eat, and they will not be starved all over the streets, which is already a fortunate thing.

Eat well and dress warmly. These two seemingly flirtatious words were realized in just two years after the war spread, which is truly beautiful. That is, in the past few years after Zhao Dongting came to power, the wind and rain have been smooth, and there has been no major drought or flood, otherwise even if the fields are divided, the people may not have enough to eat.

Now approaching the summer solar term, Zhao Dongting saw the rice ears in the field along the way, and the green and yellow were handed, as if he saw a good future.

When the autumn harvest passes, the imperial court will collect grain, which can temporarily relieve the urgent need. Perhaps, it may not be necessary to import grain from abroad this year.

It's just that after arriving in Luchuan County, Rongzhou, Zhao Dongting's good mood came to an abrupt end.

Rongzhou is very fortunate that it has not been affected by the war over the years, and the people are still living in peace. After Zhao Dongting entered the city first, he saw the chief official in the city to the gate of the city to put up a mighty formation to greet him, the military armor was bright, and the flag was fluttering. There are fast catchers, small officials cleaning the streets, and the people specially arranged by the government to wear silk and satin to roam the streets, which is extremely glamorous.

In the end, not everyone is as down-to-earth and flattering as Song Bitao, and there are always some officials who know it well.

Zhao Dongting just looked at this coldly, and after Yue Peng led the army into the city, he went to the mansion and unexpectedly put Luchuan County Cheng on the spot.

And then go north to the north, and this is also the scene.

The two counties worked hard to create a grand scene of singing and dancing, but in the end, they were dismissed on the spot.

In fact, this is a bit wronged for the chief officials of these two counties.

After all, in fact, they took good care of the city, and there was no scene full of beggars and ragged clothes, and the flattery was really not a big deal.

But it can't be said that it is completely wronged.

It would be scary for the flamboyant wind of deception to be ignited. Since they hit this muzzle, Zhao Dongting certainly had to kill the chickens and make an example.

If we really don't deal with it, in the future, all officials will become just flattering and lying about their achievements.

And just like that, twenty days passed quickly.

Soon it will be summery, and nearly half a month has passed since the beginning of autumn, but the weather is still hot.

Yue Peng's more than 10,000 Tiankui army's normal marching speed was about 30 to 40 kilometers a day. Although the road is tortuous and long, it has finally arrived outside Jingjiang Mansion, the main mansion of Guangnan West Road.

There were as many as five county officials who were removed from their official positions by Zhao Dongting halfway.

When you arrive at Jingjiang Mansion, the official road is naturally flatter and more spacious than before, after all, Jingjiang Mansion is also the main mansion of Guangnan West Road.

The main house always has the weather of the main house.

This is also known as the Dadu Governor's Mansion of Shi'an County, the city has a radius of nearly 20 square kilometers, and the people in the city are much more than Lingshui County, with more than 100,000.

At this point, Zhao Dongting's trip to inspect Guangnan West Road is the last stop. In general, I am still satisfied with the development trend of Guangnan West Road.

Putting aside people's livelihood, at least there has been a marked improvement in public order.

In the past, bandits were rampant, and there were often rangers inside and outside the city, dividing life and death, but now it is much rarer.

For Dong Zhen, Liu Hongyi, Mu Kangxun and other officials of the Guangnan West Road, Zhao Dongting has dealt with each other for several years and has a deep understanding, so he did not do anything to sneak into the city to investigate the people's livelihood first, and entered the city with the army. Liu Hongyi and the others had already learned the news, and they did not put up too much formation, except for the officials above the sixth grade in the city, only hundreds of soldiers accompanied them. But there were many people kneeling outside the city.

As soon as Yue Peng's army arrived, the people on both sides of the official road knelt and shouted long live.

Zhao Dongting has implemented new policies over the years, so that the people have food and clothing. And the people kept it in their hearts.

The army slowly stopped.

Zhao Dongting got out of the car and walked to Liu Hongyi and the others with Hong Wutian and the others. Then slowly entered the city under the eyes of the people.

Many people also knelt down in the city, and the mountain cried like a tide.

At this moment, Zhao Dongting's heart was satisfied and moved, beyond words.

When he first arrived in the Southern Song Dynasty, he just wanted to find a way back for himself, and then met Le Chan, Wen Tianxiang and others one after another, but his mood gradually changed.

How can a husband walk in the world, how can he really be alone?

This is also the reason why Zhao Dongting would rather not be happy and happy, but he plans to build the Great Song Dynasty into a glorious and prosperous era.

Perhaps it was this moment of blessing to the soul, and Zhao Dongting's internal qi was agitating endlessly. After breaking two trick points in the Shangyuan Realm, the third trick point was broken.

This speed is appalling.

followed Liu Hongyi and others into the palace, and the ministers paid homage.

Zhao Dongting did not criticize the political affairs of Guangnan West Road, but only urged the ministers to continue to work hard. In five years, it is fundamental to let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the development of the army is secondary.

After that, the ministers left, leaving only Liu Hongyi.

He took out two letters from his sleeve robe and handed them to Zhao Dongting, "Your Majesty, this is an urgent report from the Military Intelligence Department." ”

Zhao Dongting frowned slightly when he saw that there were three and two red ribbons tied to the secret letter respectively.

This is the most urgent military situation, but now that peace has been negotiated, what other such urgent military situation can there be in the country?

When he opened the first one, he had a slight smile on his face.

The Western Xia army defeated the White Horse Army in Yongmu, killing more than 20,000 White Horse troops and capturing 3,000.

This is, of course, good news.

The Western Xia army expelled the White Horse Army from Kuizhou Road, and just waited for Li Xiushu to be released, and the Great Song Dynasty could take Kuizhou Road into its pocket.

But when he opened the second letter, the smile on Zhao Dongting's face suddenly froze, and there were bursts of anger.

Yue Peng and Liu Hongyi on the side couldn't help but be surprised when they saw him like this, but they didn't ask much. This is taboo.

Zhao Dongting closed his eyes slightly, his internal qi was surging, and the two secret letters turned into pieces in his hands.

He sneered, "What a Li Wangyuan, I underestimated him, but I can also say that I look down on him." I thought he was a loving and righteous man, but I never thought that I still couldn't resist the temptation of interests. ”

Yue Peng and Liu Hongyi had doubts in their eyes.

Zhao Dongting didn't hide the thoughts of these two cronies, and his expression became indifferent again, "There are masters in Western Xia who have entered the Guangwang Mansion in Yongzhou and want to kidnap King Guang. ”

"Treacherous Xiaoxiao!"

Liu Hongyi quickly came back to his senses and couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

Yue Peng said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Xixia wants to kidnap King Guang and exchange it for Li Xiushu?" ”

Zhao Dongting said: "There is only this possibility." King Guang is far away in Yongzhou, and he will not offend Western Xia with a good end. ”

Yue Peng said again: "Then King Guang is okay? ”

Zhao Dongting scratched his eyebrows, "The letter said that it was hit hard, and I hope it's okay." ”

But he naturally had some doubts in his heart.

The Wudingtang Anwei Hall has not been established for a long time, and it is still in training, and it has not been arranged to go to the side of the senior members of the court. There shouldn't be many masters around Zhao Hao, but I don't know how to block the masters of Western Xia. After he was slightly silent, he said to Liu Hongyi: "The military intelligence department only came with these two secret letters? ”

Liu Hongyi nodded.

Zhao Dongting was even more contemplative.

This letter is too simple, and it doesn't write down how many masters broke into the Guangwang Mansion, what is Xiuwei, and what is the process in the middle.

It's not that he's suspicious, it's that this doesn't conform to the rules of the MIA. He once said that whenever a major event is encountered, the Military Intelligence Department must find fault and not omit it.
