"Returning to the easy place and making money, and being promoted quickly, who would not envy such a fat difference? A trip to the sea, tens of millions of profits are paid, in the eyes of others, even if we put a little between our fingers, there are millions of yuan, and no one will not be blushing. If you haven't noticed it, look at the return task issued by the imperial court, there are 100 merchant ships and a profit of 60 million yuan. Obviously, some people in the DPRK and China thought that it was easy to return to the trade and make money, and that the profits made by the return fleet were far more than the profits handed over. As everyone knows, the more times the fleet goes out, the higher the cost of supervising the return, the less overseas goods are exchanged, and the less profit can be made in the end. This commendation, promotion, and task are likely to be a pair of shackles, and if you are not careful, you will lose your official position and be dismissed! ”

Yang Congyi looked at the silent Lu You and continued: "In Lin'an City, anyone can spend all day and drink and sing songs night and night, but we can't, if we don't clamp our tails, maybe there will be a disaster soon." What do you mean by the court's reward for me? How many of the high-ranking courtiers in the court had their own mansions in Lin'an, and how many of them were eligible to be rewarded with mansions? As far as the eye can see, there are not many to be found. How can I Yang Congyi, how can I be virtuous, and the court will reward me with a Lin'an mansion? Do I dare to swagger in and live? ”

Hearing this, Lu You finally understood what Yang Congyi meant.

"Brother Yang's lesson is that I was too frivolous, from now on, you must pay attention!" Lu You raised his hand to admit his mistake, very seriously.

Yang Congyi said: "It's good that Brother Lu knows, this is an extraordinary time, as far as I know, the imperial court is fighting fiercely because of whether the Jin people are preparing to go south, whether it is war or peace." I am from a martial arts background, and my time in the army is not short, Brother Lu and Brother Shen have also been in the army all these years, and they have had a lot of contact with the army. After today's ascension, if you don't keep a low profile, trouble will soon come. ”

"I know, I'll leave Lin'an tomorrow and go back to Shanyin to recuperate and avoid the limelight." Lu You said.

Yang Congyi nodded and said: "That's fine, when I arrange to return to Yichu and return the mansion to the imperial court, I will also find a reason to leave Lin'an temporarily and avoid the limelight." ”

After finishing speaking, he suddenly said: "By the way, there is something I might as well tell you in advance, Brother Shen has been in charge of the northern return in the past two years, and has got some unusual news, the court of the Jin Kingdom is stepping up the recruitment of horses, gathering in the area of Yanjing and Bianjing, coupled with the war and peace discussions of the imperial court, I speculate that the Jin Kingdom is likely to move south in the summer and autumn of next year, if not next year, it will definitely go south in the autumn of the year after next year at the latest, if there is no accident, the Great Song Dynasty will not be able to hold the line of the Yangtze River, so if possible, you had better move, do not stay in Shanyin, You can go to Huzhou and Quzhou to live temporarily, and then repel the Jin people later, and then return to Shanyin. ”

"The golden people go south? How sure is Brother Yang? Lu You's heart was shocked, obviously a little panicked.

"Ten is too much, at least nine. In my opinion, Wan Yanliang must go south, there is no doubt about it. At the beginning, he moved the capital of the Jin Kingdom from the distant and cold Shangjing to Yanjing, I guessed that he intended to go south, and I heard that he was not in the right position, if he did not start a big war, did not clean up the people who opposed him, did not get a little benefit from the Great Song Dynasty, and won the hearts of the army and the people, he would not be down-to-earth in his heart, and he would always worry about the embankment of those who opposed him. The Great Song Dynasty is now weak in military strength, 20 years ago can be on the front line of the Huai River with the forbidden army of the same number of garrisons, now has fallen apart, no combat effectiveness, once the Jin army goes south, within two days can cross the Huai River, to the Yangtze River, when the time dares to stay to resist the army will not be more, there will be less of a war force, it is expected that the Jin army will be able to collect ships after a month of the Yangtze River, directly cross the river, the final result should be the Jin army to plunder the south of the Yangtze River, the richest Jiangnan region looted, Their ultimate goal must be to break through Lin'an, Shaoxing, Mingzhou will naturally not let go, and then south are mountains, their footsteps are limited to this, there are four reasons, one is the inconvenience of marching, the second is not much plundering value, the third is that the front is too long, there will be problems with logistics supply, and the fourth is at this time, the division of King Qin from all over the Great Song Dynasty will rush to the vicinity of Lin'an one after another, if the two armies are entangled in the south of the Yangtze River, the naval army in the Jinghu area goes down the river and cuts off the Yangtze River, then the Jin army will not be able to return to Jiangbei, and the previous results will be in vain. Therefore, after the Jin army goes south, it will definitely capture Lin'an, plunder the south of the Yangtze River, and then return to the north bank of the Yangtze River before the army of King Qin arrives in various places. ”

Yang Congyi's analysis and deduction have been in his mind for many years, but when he lobbied to Lu, he changed some situations, and he did not fully consider the possible resistance of the Great Song army on the Yangtze River.

However, Lu You listened to all his analysis and deduction, and suddenly his heart was a little agitated, and his brows were almost wrinkled.

"When the Jin people go south, do they want to reproduce the difficulties of Jingkang back then? Is there no way to do it in the Great Song Dynasty? Brother Yang can think of the result, can't he think of some way to stop the Jin people from going south? After thinking for a while, Lu You raised his eyes and looked at Yang Congyi, with a little expectation in his eyes.

Yang Congyi shook his head, and then sighed: "The Great Song Dynasty missed the opportunity, the best opportunity to stop the Jin people from going south was twenty years ago, when several generals in the army held elite divisions, and everyone could stand alone against the Jin people, and pushed the battle line from the Yangtze River to the north bank of the Huai River many times, and even attacked near Caizhou and Xudu. If the DPRK and the Central Committee had been united at that time, it would have been impossible to press the front line to the Bianjing line, and it would not be impossible to recover Bianjing. It's a pity, that good opportunity was lost forever, in the face of the Jin people, the defense line of the Great Song Dynasty can only be on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and the land north of the Yangtze River and south of the Huai River is said to be of the Great Song Dynasty, in fact, the Jin people can take it if they want to, and it is not effortless at all. Now, the Great Song Dynasty has not fought for 20 years, there are no newcomers in the army, almost all the generals of the year have withered, and those who are still alive are already sixty or seventy years old, where can they still fight, several powerful garrisons have been idle for 20 years, there is no combat effectiveness at all, and the rest are mostly old, weak, sick and disabled. ”

"Is there really no way?" Lu You is still asking, he doesn't believe that such a prosperous Great Song Dynasty, so many people, he can't stop the Jin people from going south, the Great Song Dynasty has already experienced the humiliating Jingkang Rebellion, how can he still let the Jin people go south to plunder!

Yang Congyi was silent for a long time, and then replied: "The only way to prevent the Jin people from going south to plunder is to block them north of the Yangtze River, and holding the Yangtze River is the only chance, as long as they can't cross the river, they may retreat due to logistical problems in three or two months, but it cannot be ruled out that they have prepared enough grain and grass for the southern invasion." But no matter what, as long as the Yangtze River is held, Jiangnan can be saved. ”

"How do you keep it?" Lu You seemed to see a little light, so he immediately asked.

"Defeat the Jin people's naval army, burn their ships, the Yangtze River is wide, and without enough ships, it is impossible for them to cross the river. But there is a problem, the Yangtze River is too long, as long as they completely occupy the north of the Yangtze River, they can cross the river from any place, if the government and the opposition can not work together, they still can't stop it, as long as they hear that the Jin people have crossed the river, it is estimated that the troops along the Yangtze River will run, and the final result will be the same. Unless we have a strong and experienced navy that can control the long defense line of the Yangtze River and destroy all possible enemy forces crossing the river! Other than that, there was nothing to stop the Jin people from crossing the river and heading south. ”

After Yang Congyi said this, he didn't say anything more.

In fact, he had already said everything that should be said, judging from Lu You's performance, he listened to some words, and as for what he would do, he couldn't guess.

"Okay, don't think about it so much, what I revealed to you today is actually my analysis and guess, and it may not be accurate. As for whether you want to move or not, it's up to you to avoid it. When the matter of returning to the Yi Division, we will sum it up, and when it is done, we will leave Lin'an as soon as possible to avoid the limelight. ”

Yang Congyi took the initiative to end today's conversation, and it is estimated that these words will not be mentioned to Lu You again in the future.

"Brother Yang is right, let's take care of the return to the Yi place first, the Jin people are going south, we are soft-spoken, there is really nothing we can do." Lu You nodded, saying so in his mouth, but the expression on his face did not relax at all.

A few days later, Yang Congyi wrote to the imperial court, asking the imperial court to convert the Sanjin Mansion that had been awarded to him into a school to teach farming, mulberry planting, weaving, porcelain-making, smelting, forging, water conservancy, tool making and other skills to promote the development of agriculture and industry.

The next day, Lu You left Lin'an and returned to Yi, claiming that he had been floating on the sea all the year round, and his health had some bad conditions, and now he had nothing to do with Yi, and asked to temporarily return to his hometown in Shanyin to recuperate for a few months, and when his health was better, he would return to Yizhi next spring to supervise Huiyi, and Yang Congyi, as his superior, agreed to his request for recuperation.

Three days later, the imperial court sent a paper of commendation to the Hui Yi office, Yang Congyi took the initiative to dedicate the mansion to build the official school, expressed praise and reward, read him a piece of sincere loyalty, the court accepted his dedication of the mansion, as for whether it is used to build the official school, it needs to be discussed in detail, and finally give money and 100 gold.

At the same time, the imperial court issued an edict, calling on the ministers to take Yang Congyi as a model, no matter when, they must care about the people, be honest and loyal to the court!
