In the restaurant facing the street, the shopkeeper Tian watched the princess's official sedan chair leave, and sneered: "Ignorant women, little tricks, can only deceive these ignorant people. He squatted his wine glass on the wine table and said stupidly, "However, in this way, the owner's plan will be postponed for a few days, and this woman is really not enough to succeed, and there are more than failures." ”

"I'm just leaving a back hand here," Shopkeeper Song sighed: "The owner didn't rush either, just wait." ”

The two of them touched a glass and drank each of them.

The South China Sea bond fell sharply, and the two were ordered by Qiu Dongjia to add fuel to the fire. The two of them have a total of more than 500,000 yuan, and they have found a number of market-making account rooms, and the shopkeeper Tian sold the stocks and securities to the Song shopkeeper at a discount, and the Song shopkeeper sold the stocks and securities to the Tian shopkeeper at a discount. Under the hype of the two, people inside and outside the Zhengxin Hall were panicked, and many businessmen who held large amounts of stock bonds sold their stock bonds one after another, and even Su Tongfu could not stop them, so the price of stock bonds fell like a kite with a broken string. According to Qiu Darui's arrangement, when the stock bonds fell below 30% of the face value, the two shopkeepers secretly bought them slowly from the market and hoarded the stock bonds at a low price. In this way, no matter what the outcome of the war between the Song government and the Haikou was, Qiu Darui was invincible.

But the eldest princess of Wu suddenly stirred up the situation, leaving the Zhengxintang market empty, and the shopkeepers of Tian and Song were alone.

Even if Zhengxintang left more than half of the counter for others to trade, as long as Princess Wu was still buying at the price of ten guan shares in the market, the vast majority of people would be reluctant to sell the stock bonds at a price much lower than ten guan. Zhao Huan limited a transaction to buy only one share or two shares, but many southeast gentry had their own ways to break them into zero, and in the end, the vast majority of what Zhao Huan bought was still in the hands of the gentry. Moreover, the shares in the hands of the southeast gentry far exceeded the amount that Zhao Huan could eventually buy. After only this period of time, most people see that there is no hope of getting rid of the stocks, which is a good opportunity to suppress the price of stocks and bonds again.

However, the evolution of things later gradually exceeded their imagination.

It is rumored that the Marquis of Wuchang seized many hidden treasures that the Liao people did not have time to transport away during the Northern Expedition, and when he was in charge of the Tokyo Left-behind Division, the wealth of more than a dozen prefectures in Henan was also intercepted, therefore, the wealth of the Marquis of Wuchang far exceeded people's imagination, and this wealth was stored in the camp of the South China Sea Sailor in Guazhoudu, and the silver money used by the eldest princess of Wu to buy stock bonds came from the Tibetan silver of the Marquis of Wuchang, even if all the stocks on the market were eaten, there was no problem. This rumor is divine, but it makes people have to believe it. 、

There are countless people who visit Su Mansion every day, and the threshold of Su Mansion is almost three inches flat by these people.

Su Tongfu also changed his old style, not living in Zhengxintang, but entertaining a few gentry every day.

It has gone viral outside, and in the past few days alone, the money received by the "Three Victors" is afraid to be counted in the amount of 100,000 yuan. However, there is no real evidence, and rumors stop at rumors. Whether it is the gathering of businessmen or the secret discussion in the inner room, everyone speculates how many shares and coupons can the eldest princess of Wu Guo buy? Or who came to visit Su Mansion again, and when they came out, they looked like they were holding a pearl of wisdom, and they didn't know how much money they used and what kind of promises they received?

In addition to envy, the businessmen in the entire Yangzhou market, regardless of whether they have excellent skills or not, are eager.

A few days have passed, seeing that the eldest princess of Wu is still buying stock bonds, and the situation of Yangzhou stock securities trading is slipping out of control step by step, Tian and Song's two shopkeepers also panicked, and they had to use the pigeon book to ask Qiu Dongjia to show it in person, but Qiu Dongjia has never had the next order, and the two have to boil like ants on a hot pot.

…………

In Guangzhou, artillery roared, gunpowder smoke rose, and a large group of bandits jumped off the ship.

The pirates gathered at the wharf of Western Australia, and after the leaders formed a little team, they rushed towards Hanhai City in the south of the city. Because the Haikou came too quickly, the foundation of the city had just been laid, and the city wall was rammed into a short section. This ruin-like low wall, even shorter than the wall of the ordinary village, the pirates did not take him seriously at first, and divided the looting area early, intending to sack a large area of the city wall of Hanhai City and Guangzhou, however, two full days have passed, the city wall has changed hands several times, and the southern city has been controlled by the Song army.

Qiu Darui stood on the upper floor of a large ship, looking north through a clairvoyant mirror, and there were corpses everywhere as far as the eye could see.

There were dead and wounded under the city, and in some places the corpses were piled up as high as the city walls, and some of the walls collapsed after being hit by shells. However, the red flag of the Song army at the head of the city was still fluttering. Just now, this section of the city wall was still in the hands of the Haikou, and the officers and soldiers took it back. In order to fight for this low city wall, the official army has been fighting with the Haikou for two days, even if the Haikou rushed into the south city, still can not let go of the plunder, Guangzhou Zhizhou put the old and weak into the city, only the men who are into the city to hide, these men and the counties rushed to the regiment to train the strong men mixed together, one after another into the fight outside the city.

In the field of vision of the clairvoyant, the Haikou rushed forward in groups and fought with the Quang Nam Prefecture Army.

In the melee, a state soldier was cut to the ground, still desperately holding the enemy's legs, and even his head was cut off and did not let go......

One of the regiments lost his blade and tore it with his teeth like a wild beast......

Except for a few elites, the state army of Guangnan Road was mostly hastily assembled from various county regiments, which was not much different from the township brave and strong men, however, the state army resisted very tenaciously and was numerous. Even though the pirates were fierce and had paid thousands of casualties, they still couldn't get past that section of the low wall. Qiu Darui finally gathered all kinds of pirates under the city of Guangzhou, so that the battle of just gnawing bones and not eating meat would continue for two or three days, but he was afraid that the team would disperse.

"It can't go on like this!" Qiu Darui frowned and said, "Urge King Famaitu to send troops." It's time for them to do their part, too! The subordinates agreed, and Qiu Darui said, "Bring a message to the five big bosses of Nalu, Cao, Li, Niu, and Servants, and step up the sweep of the remnants of the recalcitrant resistance outside the city." The dyed guys, the family pension of 200 yuan, the defeat of Guangzhou and the distribution of the same. The big cannibal armor is strong and sharp, and they will definitely be able to kill and disperse the officers and soldiers later, they must not save their strength, they must rush up together, and drive the officers and soldiers outside the city into the city. ”

The resistance outside Guangzhou was so fierce that Qiu Darui greatly surprised Qiu Darui.

According to the experience of the Liao army's southern invasion, the best way to attack the city of the Song State is the same as hunting the yellow sheep, the soldiers and horses first open a large circle, and then gradually narrow the scope, and force the people who dragged their families to the county and county. As the encirclement tightened more and more, in the end, it was like fishing a net, and the mesh was full of fatty fresh fish. If the Song guards would contain these people, first, they could disturb the situation in the city and consume the food and grass of the defenders, and second, a large number of spies and fine workers could mix into the city, or even directly seize the city gate. If the Song generals did not contain these people, the Liao army could take advantage of the situation to organize the people outside the city into a sign army, and force these Song people to attack and fill in the trenches, consume the defenders' arrows, and even attack the city with the strong.

The Liao army tried this method many times in the Song Kingdom, however, Qiu Darui used it for the first time in Guangzhou, and it was very difficult.

He gathered almost all the large groups of pirates in Guangnan and even on the southeast coast, landed in various parts of the coast, and took advantage of the mentality that the officials and troops were scattered to defend the prefectures and counties, and did not dare to easily go out of the city to fight with the rogue bandits, and gathered in Guangzhou from all directions, and also drove hundreds of thousands of fleeing people to the city of Guangzhou. However, Chen Gongju of Zhizhou neither refused to allow the fleeing people to enter the city, nor did he fully accept it, he only allowed the old and weak women and children to take refuge in the outer city of Guangzhou, and temporarily incorporated nearly 100,000 men among the refugees into the group training. Many of the makeshift regiments had no armor, no military robes, only a sword, and a thin wooden shield. The old and weak in the city were like hostages, and the men outside the city had to fight desperately to block the Haikou's soldiers outside the city of Guangzhou.

"A group of sheep can stop jackals and dogs even if they try their best, but when they encounter real wolves, no matter how many sheep there are, it is useless."

Famaitu looked at the warriors waiting to depart on the deck, and exclaimed, "Warriors under the command of the Sultan," he waved the silk handkerchief in his hand forward, and ordered, "Go now, and now use your scimitars to drink the blood of your enemies, and make them fear, tremble, and prostrate at the feet of the great Sultan!" The officers and soldiers on deck drew their scimitars and shouted in response to the commander's orders. It had been two days and two nights since the Great Food Convoy arrived off the coast of Canton, and all the time it had been firing only at the shore, and these Sultan warriors had been holding back for days, and their eyes did not hide their desire for battle and blood.

One by one, the Great Food Warriors descended from the rope ladder to the dock, and Famaitu once again raised his clairvoyant mirror to observe the progress of the battle.

The weather was hot, and the warriors took off their robes, and in the strong sunlight, the iron armor and scimitars shone like the sparkling sea.

The corners of Famaitu's mouth curled up slightly, and the climate of Guangzhou reminded him of the great sea of hot sand.

However, the pagan pirates were nowhere near the tribe of the Hot Sands Sea. The tribes in the hot sand sea, for a good horse, a good sword, a good armor, can do whatever it takes, because the tribe loses everything without good weapons. And these Haikou of the Song Kingdom, their leaders wore silk shoes, the warriors did not even have armor, and the weapons were also inferior iron knives, if this kind of knife and the scimitar of the water eater hit each other, the sword of the Song State would be curled or broken nine times out of ten. Famaitu had been deeply wary of the many pagan pirates, but after watching the battle for the past two days, he was no longer worried about the threat posed by them.

"In that case, take the city of Canton, the commander of the navy who was imprisoned by their own people, I would be interested in meeting him."
