Yang Ye has fought many battles, but this time, he is the second monk of Zhang, who is confused, and he is simply confused. Speaking of which, the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty are indeed vegetables, but there are more than 100,000 people around Jinling, even if one person spits foam, he can make a big flood and drown the Zhou soldiers.

However, they don't want to resist, but they always do strange things.

For example, Yang Ye supervised the siege of the city, and the people inside shot arrows and threw stones, but they didn't even care about aiming, more like they were frightened, and their hasty reaction was not a threat at all, which only added to the joke, Yang Ye even wanted to attack the city directly, maybe he could kill it.

But after Yang Ye retreated, many people would come out of the city one after another, and they would dress up as ordinary people and go to trade with Da Zhou, salt, raw silk, tea, all of which were things they liked. Even firewood and grass are wanted, and there are millions of people in the city, and there are too many various materials consumed.

As for the city, most of what they could bring out were coins and fine silk.

Not to mention, the silk workshop that Li Hongji worked hard to build is now going all out, working day and night, and the production efficiency is much higher than usual, as if he has entered a wartime system, but it is a pity that this deformed wartime system has no value at all for the Southern Tang Dynasty.

On the contrary, every time there is a transaction, someone brings out the news from the city, and occasionally there are people from Da Zhou who sneak into the city and become an internal response.

At first, the trading took place at night, but the people of the city became more and more emboldened, and before dusk, someone came out.

On the one hand, it is afraid of the enemy and does not fight, and it is a turtle with a shrunken head, and on the other hand, it does not have a head and smuggles recklessly.

Yang Ye felt that the people in the city were probably not clear-headed, and it was really not easy to get together with the madmen in the city.

"Master Hou, what do you say! I'm out of ideas anyway. Yang Ye spread out his hands, in the face of such an evil situation, without a little IQ, he really couldn't see through.

Ye Hua was very relaxed, and said with a smile: "As a general, you can't just fight, but also look at people's hearts. Let me ask you, with the power of the Southern Tang Dynasty, can you compete with the Great Zhou? ”

Yang Ye took a sip and said disdainfully: "It is absolutely impossible, the Central Plains soldiers are strong and strong, the first emperor and the current sages have worked hard to govern the country, and the country has taken on a new look." Although Li Hongji also carried out reforms and reforms, he was constrained everywhere and his results were limited. On the contrary, the domestic party strife continues, and they can't unite as one, how can they fight against the Great Zhou Xiongbing! ”

"That's right, since you can't win, so what?"

Yang Ye scratched his head, "Is it surrender?" Why didn't you see them open the door? ”

Ye Hua laughed, "Before the time to surrender, the literati are always a little reserved. However, it is destined to change dramatically, and at such times, it is better to have more money in hand than less. Even if something really happens, you can buy your life back, don't you say? ”

"Ahh

Yang Ye couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, what kind of train of thought is this, but after thinking about it, this is the only reasonable explanation, otherwise how can you explain that the people in the city are crazy?

However, Yang Ye really couldn't accept it, and he even sympathized with Li Hongji a little.

His Majesty the Emperor is really good to the Great Family, giving them so many benefits and conveniences, and reusing scholars, exempting them from taxes and taxes, and treating them favorably.

Everything that can be done has been done, why don't these people know how to be grateful to Dade, how about they have no heart?

Ye Hua shook his head, the so-called interest group is a group of insatiable people, they can only be restrained, vainly trying to buy them by grace, that is a fool's dream!

Look, Li Hongji has done so much, some people will feel that it is not enough!

Ye Hua said: "General Yang, you and Fu Zhaoxin supervised the siege of the city in batches, remember, there must be a gap, and also, urge Suzhou to provide more goods, so that the business will become bigger and bigger." ”

After Ye Hua gave the order, he left the account and looked at the majestic Jinling City. Plotting Jinling with 30,000 people is tantamount to a snake swallowing a giant elephant, and a foolish person is dreaming.

But at this moment, Ye Hua was full of confidence, and he didn't even have the slightest doubt, he was very sure that the group of people in the city was rapidly dividing, each with different calculations, or it wouldn't be long before this kind of city would be destroyed in the hands of his own people!

Ye Hua pondered for a while, turned back to the handsome tent to rest, and before he could lie down, someone came to report, "Master Qiqi, someone in the city is coming!" ”

"Sure enough!"

Ye Hua's face was overjoyed, "Bring it in!" ”

Not long after, a man in a green coat and a small hat came in from outside, entered the handsome tent, knelt down at the door, and said: "The villain is Feng Yanji Feng Xianggong's servant, and he has sealed the master's order, and he has come to meet the Hou Ye!" ”

Ye Hua's eyes rolled, he heard Han Xizai say that Feng Yanji was Song Qiqiu's sworn friend, and when Han Xizai was in the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was bullied by these two people together, and he was very miserable.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yanji's people actually came to deliver the letter.

Ye Hua smiled slightly, "It turned out to be Feng Xianggong, he is highly respected, honest and modest, and he is a character I admire." However, it is a pity that he can serve the two countries and not be in the same palace. ”

Hearing Ye Hua praise Feng Yanji, this family member was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Master Hou is too famous, and the master of my family also deeply admires Lord Hou, saying that Master Hou is the hero of the world, the leader of the youth." This guy said a few more good words, then restrained his smile and said solemnly: "Master Hou, the villain sneaked out of Jinling, there are two things to tell Master Hou." ”

"What two things?"

"First, Chen Qiao sent the imperial historian Zhang Xun to Jiangzhou to move troops, and it is estimated that soon 100,000 troops will go down the river to rescue Jinling!"

After Jia Ding finished speaking, he peeked at Ye Hua, hoping to see a clue.

How do you know that Ye Huayun is light, but he just sighed, and he didn't continue to say anything, and he didn't even take the initiative to ask about the second thing.

This family member panicked, could it be that Da Zhou already knew? This champion Hou Ke is really hand-eyed!

He was even more frightened, and hurriedly said: "Master Hou, there is a second thing, the Holy Lord, uh no, it is Li Hongji, he sent Xu Xuan, carrying the Sword of the Son of Heaven, to return to Jinling from Yangzhou to take over the power, and he will arrive in the city in a few days!" ”

Is Seo-hyun back?

Ye Hua couldn't help but stand up, turned around twice, and asked again, "Is this true?" ”

"Absolutely! And according to the news that my master received, Xu Xuan should have entered the water village from the Qinhuai River, and then returned to Jinling to replace Chen Qiao. ”

actually even had a route, Ye Hua's eyes lit up.

Seo Hyun!

When he was the envoy to the Great Zhou, he was also poured a belly of wine by himself, and among the ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was still loyal and had some skills. If Li Hongji had left him to guard Jinling, maybe it wouldn't have been like this.

But now that you're gone, don't come back and make trouble.

Ye Hua thought about it for a long time and had an idea.

He took out three ivory cards from his bosom and handed them to his family.

"Feng Xianggong can comply with the mandate of heaven, which is really rare. I asked for this ivory card from the Son of Heaven and gave it to your master, so that when the army enters the city, it will keep your master safe. As for the remaining two brands, Feng Xianggong will hand them over to whoever he wants, which is my thank you gift, you can accept it! ”

When the family heard this, his hands and feet trembled excitedly, where are these three ivory cards, which are clearly three life-saving charms!

Feng Yanji ignored his old face and betrayed Nantang, in order to save his life! Hou Ye is really interesting! The family was grateful, and hurriedly kowtowed and left.

As soon as he left, Han Xizai walked in from the back of the tent, his face was as cold as frost and snow, and the flesh on his cheeks kept shaking.

"Humph! Shameless! ”

Han Xizai stepped in front of Ye Hua and said angrily: "Master Hou, do you know? When the old man was in Jinling, Song Qiqiu, Feng Yanji, and their minions all said that the old man was a northerner and could not be trusted, and only their literati in the south of the Yangtze River would be loyal to the Southern Tang Dynasty! Bullshit! It's all bullshit! They are shameless traitors, shameless brutes! ”

Han Xizai scolded bitterly, and Ye Hua couldn't say anything, so he could only add some charcoal to the stove, reheat a pot of water, and pour a cup of tea for Han Xizai.

"Drink some first, and I'll have to catch up with my old friends when I get back!"

"Old friends? Who? Han Xizai was so angry that his head was dizzy, and his brain was not good.

Ye Hua chuckled: "Who else can it be, Xu Xuanbei!" ”

"Ahh Han Xizai slapped his head, suddenly realized, and then rejoiced, "Wonderful, really wonderful!" Xu Xuan was sent back by Li Hongji to save the scene, if he was arrested, wouldn't the city be leaderless and in chaos! Han Xizai was still a little puzzled, "Master Hou, I'm a little worried, it may not be so smooth, if you can't catch it, Xu Xuan has entered the city, but it's a big enemy!" ”

"Hahaha!"

Ye Hua smiled, "Han Xianggong, why did you say Li Hongji sent Xu Xuan back?" Why did Feng Yanji send us a letter? ”

How smart Han Xizai is, after thinking about it for a while, he immediately understood.

Li Hongji was obviously disappointed in the officials in Jinling, and he gave Xu Xuan the sword of the Son of Heaven, which was to let him come back and kill people!

These people in the city will not be arrested, they don't want to die, they can't let Xu Xuan enter the city, so they gave him to Da Zhou......

"What you just said is right, whether it is Song Qiqiu, Feng Yanji, or his henchmen, they are all local snakes, and Xu Xuan can't run away! When you live or die, the explosiveness of the villain is always amazing. ”

Although Han Xizai was angry, he had to admit that Ye Hua had a point.

"As the Hou Ye said, that couldn't be better. I'm waiting for news in the military tent of the Hou Ye. ”

"It's good!"

Ye Hua asked people to get a few quails, a jar of old wine, he and Han Xizai roasted quails, chatting, so happy. When it was almost the third watch, suddenly there was a sound outside, and Fu Zhaoxin broke in.

"Hehe, stop roasting quails, I'm bringing you big fish!"

A soldier ran in with a sack on his shoulder, opened it, and revealed an old man dressed in a short beat, whose beard had been specially trimmed, and only more than an inch remained, and his face was smeared with black ash, which looked very embarrassed.

But even so, how could he hide from Han Xizai's eyes.

He couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "Brother Xu, you pretend to be like this, but you still fall into the sky net, this is called negligence but not leakage!" ”
