Chapter 214: Making Something Out of Nothing
After a few people sat down, Gao Feng first introduced everyone to Wang Yi, and everyone saw each other. Monk Jia wasted no time in saying: "Congratulations to Lord Gao, clear the internal enemy, and now there are Yang Dutou and Shi Dutou with people to help defend the city, and soon Yang will lead his troops to the north, and Lord Gao is the first merit of the Northern Expedition; Oh, and Lord Wang, waiting for the poor monk to introduce Yang Tong...... Yang will not hesitate to reward merit. ”
Monk Jia deliberately repeated the word recommendation, and Wang Yi immediately said: "Wang prepared a thin gift, and asked the senior monk to introduce him." ”
When Monk Jia heard that he had prepared a thin gift, he was excited, and he almost said "It's easy to say", so he hurriedly changed his words: "It's good, it's good." ”
Gao Feng turned around again and thanked Zhou Nan, Yang Dachun, and Shi Yue: "Thanks to the help of the three of them tonight, Gao and Wang Da were saved from the disaster of annihilation. "During the day, Zhou Nan led Yang Dachun and Shi Yue to meet Gao Feng, Gao Feng naturally treated Yang Dachun and Shi Yue as guests, and when he saw Zhou Nan dare to stand up tonight, he knew that Zhou Nan was not an ordinary person, and he was also very respectful to Zhou Nan, and he didn't dare to treat him as an entourage.
Zhou Nan said to Gao Feng: "Lord Gao, fortunately, the Khitan prison army came to the door by himself, and it saves us the trouble of dealing with him." At present, Yang Commander sent two hundred elite soldiers and two heads to assist Gao Daren to defend the city, and Yang Commander will soon raise troops to the north, and Gao Daren only needs to guard the city and wait for good news. ”
Gao Feng said again and again: "Gao naturally sticks to Yizhou to wait for the heavenly soldiers. ”
Zhou Nan glanced at Monk Jia, and Monk Jia understood, and said to Gao Feng: "Lord Gao got what he wanted, just rest assured." It's just that there is still one thing in the Yang system this time, please ask Lord Gao for help. If this matter is done, General Yang will ask Tong Xuanshuai to repay the merits for the adults, and ask the emperor to approve the Gao people to govern the land of Yannan. ”
Monk Jia of Gaofeng Hall said that he still had something to help him with, so he was worried and asked cautiously: "I don't know what the Yang system entrusts?" Gao Feng was used to things, and he had long known that Yang Keshi would not promise easily, but he didn't know what Yang Keshi wanted him to do, and he even regretted it a little in his heart, afraid that Yang Keshi would let him send troops now to help the Song army attack Liaodi City.
Monk Jia said with a smile: "Don't worry about Lord Gao, Commander Yang just asked Lord Gao to send one or two reliable people, and a hundred elite soldiers sent by Commander Yang, under the pretext of going to Zhuozhou City to borrow grain and enter the city, just to ask Lord Gao to find someone who is familiar with the Zhuozhou soldiers, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the defenders of Zhuozhou." Other things, this Zhou ...... General Zhou naturally has a plan, and he will never embarrass Lord Gao. ”
When Gao Feng heard this, he just sent one or two people to follow Yang Keshi's people to Zhuozhou City to borrow grain, so he put his mind at ease and promised: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Since Yang commanded, Gao would naturally try his best to help. It's a pity to just transfer a hundred elite soldiers. ”
Zhou Nan deliberately lowered his voice and said: "There are also generals in Zhuozhou City who are conspiring with Yang Tong to sacrifice Zhuozhou, but I am afraid that Guo Yaoshi will not will." That's why we have to send someone to do it. Lord Gao can rest assured that the city of Zhuozhou will be surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty in a few days, and at that time, if Yanjing sends troops, Zhuozhou will be in front of him. ”
When Gao Feng heard that there were also guards in Zhuozhou who were about to sacrifice the city, he couldn't help asking: "Master, what is the first merit ......of the Northern Expedition?"
Monk Jia said with a smile, "Yizhou Xiancheng is in front, Zhuozhou is in the back, this first merit is naturally Gao Daren and Wang Daren, Yang Dutou and Shi Dutou saw Gao Daren order someone to kill the Khitan prison army tonight, how can it be fake?" ”
When Yang Dachun and Shi Yue asked, they both nodded and said, "The two brothers can testify for Master Gao in front of Yang Commander. ”
Gao Feng shook his head and said, "Thank you so much. He asked Zhou Nan again: "I don't know when the people under Yang's control will go to Zhuozhou?" ”
Zhou Nan said: "Originally, I waited for Lord Gao to solve the Khitan prison army and blockade the whole city, and then I would go to Zhuozhou, but now that the prison army has been solved, I will naturally go to Zhuozhou tomorrow." It must be known that if it is late, it will change, and it is necessary to take Zhuozhou before Yanjing discovers it, so that adults can rest easy here. ”
Gao Feng was naturally willing to have Zhuozhou City in the north to stop Yanjing's soldiers and horses, and hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, Gao will give an order to arrest all the Khitans in the city, block the city gate, and only allow Han people to enter and exit." In this way, it is enough to defend Yizhou until Yang leads the army. ”
Zhou Nan saw that Gao Feng agreed, so he said: "Please ask Yang Dutou to lead his subordinates to garrison the gate of Yizhou City and assist Lord Gao in defending the city; Take someone to Zhuozhou. Please arrange two reliable people tonight, and go to Zhuozhou with me and Shi Du early tomorrow morning. ”
Gao Feng thought to himself, just arrange a few people, it's not troublesome, even if something happens, I can say that I don't know. Seeing that the day is precarious, who can help whom? You can't offend the southerners at this time. Thinking of this, he said to Zhou Nan: "This matter is all up to General Zhou's orders, and Gao will do his best." We must make some great contributions to Yang's system. ”
After the matter was discussed, everyone went back to the room to rest, Gao Feng was proud to see the opportunity early this time, and found a way back; Monk Jia counted the box of gold ingots in his heart. Yang Dachun and Shi Yue won Yizhou in just a fight, and they were happy and didn't know what to do; Only Wang Yi, seeing that Gao Feng had landed on the side of the southerners, he didn't know what the consequences were, so he was so anxious that he was going to go back to the room, so he hurriedly grabbed Monk Jia's arm and said: "Today, the master is frightened, I don't know if I can enjoy the light to the cold house tomorrow, Wang prepared a few glasses of vegetarian wine to suppress the master's shock." ”
As soon as Monk Jia heard that Wang Yi invited him to go to the mansion to drink tomorrow, he naturally knew Wang Yi's intentions, and the two immediately hooked up hotly, and said that he would send someone to pick him up tomorrow, and Wang Yi returned to the house.
Early the next morning, Zhou Nan first instructed Monk Jia to let him feel at ease here, no matter who gave the gift, just accept it, and when he came back, he would give him the box of gold ingots, and then he would go his own way, and he would be a passerby from then on. Said that Monk Jia was a little reluctant, Zhou Nan gave him a big gift for nothing (not one, today Wang Yi will also have a gift), he didn't help much, he has been a liar for so many years, but a little ashamed, Zhou Nan said, Monk Jia was a little emotional, and said: "Senior brother......"
"Stop! I don't want to be a monk. Zhou Nan warned Monk Jia with good words: "These days, don't talk about them to others, otherwise they will cause death; If you want to be rich in the second half of your life, go back to the Southern Dynasty in September - a senior monk once said: There was a rebellion in Yanjing in September. Don't go south before September, or your money will be lost. ”
In the future, there is no need for Monk Jia, just let him go with the gold and silver. did not let him go to the south in September, because he was afraid that he would be caught by the Song army in the south and tell the story of defrauding Zhuozhou and Yizhou; He asked him to return to the Southern Dynasty in September because according to the evolution of history, there would be war in the vicinity of Yanjing City - but if his plan succeeded, those situations would not arise again.
Although Lao Jia is a liar, in this troubled world, he is very cute compared to those who kill people like hemp and bring disaster to the country and the people.
