Chapter 1376 Entering Hangzhou

() After the army entered the city, the general trend of Wu Yue Kingdom had gone. The fiercest resistance in the city immediately collapsed after Qian was escorted by Zhang Sanzheng to show up.

The secret path revealed by Wang Danhua has played a decisive role, and the credit is naturally self-evident.

With Li Zhongyi's personality, the last thing he is willing to fight is street fighting. After all, there are too many uncontrollable factors in street fighting.

Being able to use the secret passage to control the family of Qian first, and then dispel the willpower of the defenders to persist in street fighting, is obviously the best choice.

From this aspect, Wang Danhua and Qin Hanzheng behind him have made a lot of contributions.

Li Zhongyi's character has always been a clear distinction between grievances and rewards and punishments, so before he settled in Hangzhou, he summoned Qin Hanzheng in advance.

"The criminal minister Qin Hanzheng, knock on the emperor." Qin Hanzheng, who is like a black iron tower, bowed in front of Li Zhongyi's seat.

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, and said gently: "Qin Qing doesn't have to be so polite, sit down and talk. Come here, serve tea, melon and fruit snacks. ”

Qin Hanzheng was reluctant to sit down immediately, he said with a bitter face: "The criminal minister betrayed the old master, and he really didn't dare to be such a favor as the emperor." ”

Li Zhongyi curled the corners of his mouth, and reassured Qin Hanzheng with a gentle attitude: "Since ancient times, the world has been unified, and the four seas have been unified, which is the most reasonable thing in the world. Qin Qing, in order to promote the harmony of the world, you gave up small righteousness and great gifts, walked rightly, and acted properly, not only not guilty, but also made great contributions to the court. ”

Although Qin Hanzheng has taken refuge in Li Zhongyi, he has a sense of shame, which is quite affirmed by Li Zhongyi.

If Qin Hanzheng had just turned his back on the money, he would be happy to mingle with Li Zhongyi, but it would arouse Li Zhongyi's suspicions.

The truth in this world, to put it bluntly, is that whether an individual is mixing rivers and lakes or living in a temple, choosing a reliable backer is the most important thing.

In layman's terms, it is a question of taking sides in the political category. Only by always standing in the right team can it be possible to live a green and nourishing life!

Qin and Han are taking the initiative to take refuge in Li Zhongyi, and from a historical point of view, it is actually a good bird that chooses a tree to perch.

"Sit down and talk, I like to talk more than stand." Li Zhongyi made a joke that was not big or small, and Qin Hanzheng showed the weight in his words, so he was no longer stubborn and sat down silently.

After the maids served tea and melon and fruit snacks, Li Zhongyi raised the teacup and invited him to drink with a smile: "The newly brewed hair tip is just right to drink while it is hot, if it is cold, it will lose its original taste." ”

Qin Hanzheng is actually used to drinking group tea with green onion and ginger at home, and this is the first time he has drunk green tea. If he hadn't heard that Li Zhongyi likes to drink green tea, he would probably think that Li Zhongyi was deliberately making things difficult.

Qin Hanzheng tasted green tea in a proper manner, and at first he didn't think it was good, but when he took the second sip, there was a sweetness between his lips and teeth, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Li Zhongyi saw that Qin Hanzheng drank a few sips of green tea in a row, and he knew in his heart that Qin Hanzheng must have tasted something very different from Tuan Tea.

To put it bluntly, Li Zhongyi is not interested in group tea, especially the group tea with ginger and green onions and even sugar, which is the rhythm of wanting to vomit.

The so-called good at the top will be very bad at the bottom, and it will not be diverted by human will!

In the officialdom of the entire Qiang Han Dynasty, the officials who originally drank group tea accounted for the vast majority. Now, driven by Li Zhongyi, gradually, the proportion of drinking freshly brewed green tea has become higher and higher.

Qin Hanzheng drank the cup of tea in a few sips, and the maid with her own sharp eyes refilled the water and soup for him, and Li Zhongyi saw that he drank a new taste, so he didn't disturb him.

After Qin Hanzheng drank the tea in the cup for the second time, Li Zhongyi put down the teacup and said with a smile: "It tastes good, right?" ”

"Back to the emperor, this tea is really good, the entrance is shengjin, it seems to have a sweet aftertaste, and it is fragrant." Qin Hanzheng sincerely gave an objective evaluation.

Li Zhongyi couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "I have a lot of good tea here, when you go out, take a few catties back and taste it." ”

This is an extremely rare courtesy, Qin Han hurriedly left his seat, bowed respectfully to the ground, and said sincerely: "Thank you for the emperor's favor, I'm afraid the minister is worthy of it." ”

From a criminal minister to a self-proclaimed minister, it is only a few cups of tea. However, there is an extremely rich connotation in it.

Li Zhongyi saw that Qin Han was much calmer than when he first came, so he smiled and said, "Sit down and talk, sit down and talk, you don't need to be so polite." ”

After Qin Hanzheng sat down again, Li Zhongyi smiled and said: "The situation in Wu Yueguo, I guess Qin Qing knows a lot, please don't hesitate to give advice." ”

After getting to the point, Qin Hanzheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, dealing with a male master like Li Zhongyi, in his opinion, was actually much more uncomfortable than going into battle to kill the enemy.

"Back to the emperor, although Wuyue has thirteen states, the essence lies in Xiuzhou, Hangzhou and Mingzhou. The land of these three states is under the ground, and Wu Yue has pacified more than seventy percent, and the only thing to worry about is Fuzhou. "Qin Hanzheng is the deputy capital of Wu Yueguo's six armies, and he naturally knows everything about the reality in Wu Yueguo.

"Between Fuzhou and Wenzhou, there are many mountains and rivers, and the roads are rugged and difficult to navigate......," Qin Hanzheng said on a whim, and actually stood up, raised his finger and pointed in mid-air.

Li Zhongyi pursed his lips and smiled, and simply ordered someone to bring a large Wu Yue ** sand table, Qin Han was clearly seeing the trend of the mountains and rivers, as well as the direction of the river, and even the length of the road, he couldn't help but be stunned, and blurted out: "There is such a wonderful thing?" ”

"Hehe, I have never fought uncertain battles, to put it bluntly, the terrain and garrisons of Wu Yue Kingdom are all under control." Li Zhongyi is not a character who likes to brag, and his big truth shocked Qin Hanzheng on the spot.

Unlike the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Qiang Han Dynasty, Wu Yue was a small and weak state and was forced to follow the path of mercantilism.

Therefore, the official roads of the entire Wuyue Kingdom, except for the section to Fuzhou, are relatively spacious and durable in most cases.

In this era, there is basically only one official road connecting various cities. Li Jiajun's mappers disguised themselves as businessmen and surveyed all the way along the official road, and naturally gained a lot.

It's just that Qin Hanzheng has never touched the sand table, let alone concepts such as contour lines. When he saw the direction of the road, the direction of the mountains, and even the depth of the river, how could he not be stunned?

You must know that in this era, the vast majority of middle and lower-level officers have probably never seen a military map, let alone a sand table where everything is clearly marked.

"Your Majesty, please see, Quzhou, Chuzhou, Wuzhou and Muzhou, because of the continuous mountainous areas and the lack of arable land, naturally have a big problem, that is, lack of food." After all, Qin Hanzheng is an old minister of Wu Yueguo, and he naturally knows everything about Wu Yue's domestic needs, "As long as the grain transported to these four places is controlled, it will definitely not last." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded, what Qin Hanzheng said was indeed fair, Quzhou, Chuzhou, Wuzhou and Muzhou, if these four states were not located in the mountains, I am afraid that they would have been swallowed by the Southern Tang Dynasty a long time ago.

After all, these four states are close to the Southern Tang Dynasty, and far away from Hangzhou, Wu Yueguo has hidden worries beyond the reach of the whip.

"Your Majesty, starting from Hangzhou and going all the way to Wenzhou, they are all plains, easy to attack and difficult to defend, so there is no need to worry!" Qin Hanzheng deliberately paused, wanting to leave room for Li Zhongyi to digest and absorb and understand.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhongyi said with a smile: "In my opinion, Taizhou, Wenzhou and Quanzhou, and even Fuzhou, are not enough to worry about. On the contrary, it is the land of the four states in the north of Wu Yue Kingdom, and it is easy to go wrong, after all, there is an old saying, poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, and the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, isn't it? ”

Qin Hanzheng thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized his mistake and omission, didn't the Qiang Han Dynasty attack Wu Yue this time rely on a huge sailor?

With the combat strength of the Li family's army, Fuzhou, which is close to the sea, even if there are more soldiers and horses, it is indeed not a cause for concern. After all, with the convenience of the sailor, it is impossible for Fuzhou to hold on.

Seeing that Qin Han was figuring out the real strategic situation, Li Zhongyi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Ordinary people don't understand the benefits of the water master, and it is inevitable that Qin Qing will miss something, let's continue to talk about the four states in the mountainous area." ”

In the next two hours, Qin Hanzheng gave a detailed account of the geographical characteristics of Quzhou, Chuzhou, Wuzhou and Muzhou, as well as the situation of the garrison generals.

In most cases, Li Zhongyi maintained a listening posture, unless it was an extremely special place, he would take advantage of Qin Han's time to drink tea and make very detailed inquiries.

One gentleman and one minister, one question and one answer, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is time for dinner.

Out of consideration for Corporal Lixian's style, Li Zhongyi naturally left Qin Hanzheng and had dinner with him.

Under normal circumstances, Li Zhongyi's dinner in the army is exactly the same as that of ordinary soldiers, and today Qin and Han are eating together, Li Zhongyi ordered someone to add two more meat dishes, one is roasted mutton, and the other is white siad meatball soup.

After all the wine and food were served, Qin Hanzheng was secretly surprised that Li Zhongyi, with the respect of the emperor, could eat so simply, it was really unimaginable!

Li Zhongyi picked up a piece of roasted mutton, but when he saw Qin Han pinching the chopsticks in a daze, he asked him with a smile: "What is the depth of your thoughts?" ”

Qin Hanzheng stood up solemnly, bowed respectfully to the ground, and sighed: "I have long heard that the emperor is frugal and abnormal, and now that he is in the scene, the strength of the northern country of Fang is not vain. ”

Li Zhongyi smiled and waved his hand and said, "As long as Duke Qin doesn't dislike the simple dishes, I will be satisfied." ”

Qin Hanzheng sighed heavily and said: "Knowing the autumn after falling a leaf, the minister is willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, tear up the battlefield for the emperor, and die without regrets." ”

Perhaps seeing that Qin Han was speaking sincerely, Li Zhongyi put down the chopsticks in his hand and said with a smile: "When eating and drinking, don't talk about military affairs, come, sit down, although the food is average, the wine is good wine, when you float a big white!" ”
