Shouchun City, county government.

He Zongzhe looked at the yellow and white things piled up in the entire hall and smiled from ear to ear.

This time, the biggest motive that prompted He Zongzhe to ask for help was the softness of these gold and silver.

He Zongzhe, who was born in the vast steppe, often heard his father and uncle talk about the richest cities in the south: even if he plundered an unknown small city, the wealth gathered was enough for a Mongolian nobleman to squander several lifetimes.

As a result, looting a small southern city became He Zongzhe's first dream.

But it took more than 20 years for this dream to come true.

He Zongzhe even felt that if he could not plunder the rich cities of Henan (south of the Yellow River) on a large scale, he would be sorry for the "Tartar" given to him by the southerners.

As for Han Shantong's son, he has his own subordinates with eyes to do it, and he will first get a few tender southerner little ladies to play with - this is He Zongzhe's second dream.

"Hey, if you want to say that this little lady of the southerners is really a fox spirit, she almost sucked Lao Tzu dry last night, his uncle's, I feel better than the stinky girls in our north, look at the soft little hands, plump buttocks ......"

He Zongzhe hummed a little song and walked to the back hall, where there were several beautiful girls waiting for him to pamper him.

Although the two little ladies tossed him a lot last night, the feeling of Shuangfeiyan soaring through the clouds and fog made him eat the marrow and couldn't stop.

Just a few steps away, he was stopped by a hurried voice.

"General He, it's not good, it's not good!"

Wang Mazi of Qianhu stumbled in, ran in front of He Zongzhe, and was about to speak, but he was inexplicably slapped in the mouth, which made Wang Mazi turn around twice in a daze.

He Zongzhe pointed to his nose and scolded, "Your uncle, what nonsense are you talking about?" Lao Tzu is standing here dignifiedly, there is a bad fart? ”

Wang Mazi was speechless, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and begged for mercy: "General He, I was wrong, I was stupid, I couldn't speak, I collided with the general, I should fight, I should fight!" ”

As he spoke, Wang Mazi slapped himself twice.

He Zongzhe snorted and continued to walk forward.

When his figure was about to disappear from view, Wang Mazi realized that he was not slapping his mouth, but had something important to say, so he hurriedly got up and chased after him.

Only this time, he didn't shout nonsense.

"General He, wait, the subordinate has something important to report."

He Zongzhe reluctantly stopped again, pouted, and said, "General Ben is very busy every day, so he doesn't have time to take care of you." There is something important to find Yelu Xiong! ”

After speaking, he was about to continue walking, but he was hugged by the anxious Wang Mazi and couldn't move forward.

"If you don't let go of your dog's paws, beware of General Ben chopping you with a knife!"

Wang Mazi hurriedly let go of his hand and said hurriedly: "General He, it was Yelu Dalu Huachi who asked me to come to you, this matter is urgent, Yelu Dalu Huachi ordered me to report to the general." ”

He Zongzhe frowned slightly and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Wang Mazi hurriedly said: "After the city was broken, Yelu Daluhua ordered us to search the whole city to find out the person on the portrait, but we turned over every piece of land in the city, and we almost turned Shouchun upside down, and we couldn't find the person." ”

Although no one has ever seen the son of Han Shantong, some Yuan Dynasty generals are still very familiar with their old opponent Mao Gui.

So, He Zongzhe ordered someone to extend Mao Gui's appearance down, show it to all the troops, just wait to break through Shouchun City, and then pull Mao Gui and others out and send them to Bianliang for reward.

But now it seems that the plan has not kept up with the changes.

When He Zongzhe heard this, his face couldn't help but become solemn, and his heart, which was originally burning, quietly calmed down when he heard the bad news.

He Zongzhe, who couldn't think of why, had an idea and asked: "What about Yelu Xionghuo, this arrest matter, General Ben gave him full authority, and now that something happened, why didn't he come to report it in person, could it be that he couldn't abscond in fear of crime?" ”

Wang Mazi explained: "Yelu Dalu Huachi was interrogating the prisoners in the military camp at this time, and wanted to get some useful information from the mouths of those lowly Huza, after all, this time we gave him a pot, and many of Huzha's generals did not have time to escape, and they were all caught by us. ”

He Zongzhe sneered: "It's ridiculous that he still expects to ask something from the mouths of these cowards." ”

Wang Mazi smiled and didn't say much.

"Lead the way and take General Ben to the barracks."

He Zongzhe waved his hand, Wang Mazi hurriedly led the way, and before the two of them walked out of the county office, they bumped into Yelu Xionghuo who came in a hurry.

"Xiaguan has seen General He."

Yelu Xiong hurriedly saluted He Zongzhe, who waved his hand and asked with an angry face: "Can you find Mao Gui and his party?" ”

"This ......" Yelu Xiong smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, and glanced up at He Zongzhe, not knowing how to speak.

He Zongzhe said impatiently: "There is something to say, there is fart, swallowing and spitting, just like a little lady, no matter how old you are, it is not ashamed!" ”

Yelu Xionghuo had no choice but to say truthfully: "Don't hide it from the general, Xia Guan just interrogated several officials of Hu Zha, and judging from their confessions, this Mao Gui did not come to Shouchun at all. ”

He Zongzhe frowned, "How is this possible?" The secret agent in Bozhou has already told me that the itinerary of Mao Gui and the others, according to their foot strength, will arrive in Shouchun five days ago at the latest, how could they not come, is there something wrong on the way? ”

The wry smile on the corner of Yelu Xiong's mouth was even stronger, "According to the news obtained by the lower officials, not only did we fight the idea of Han Shantong's son, but also Polo Timur, the son of Prime Minister Zuo, also wanted to fish in troubled waters, but his territory bordered Zhang Shicheng, and he didn't dare to blatantly send troops, but he sent some stragglers to intercept along the road, and in the end they were all beaten away by Mao Gui, but it also delayed some time, so Mao Gui and others failed to reach Shouchun as we expected." ”

"Bang!" He Zongzhe punched the red lacquer pillar and said hatefully: "This Polo Timur is really hateful, just like a-stirring stick, always bad for me. ”

Seeing this, Yelu Xiong hurriedly comforted: "Please General He be relieved, the lower officials already know the whereabouts of Mao Gui and the others, if General He immediately sends troops to attack now, he will definitely be able to wipe them out." ”

He Zongzhe raised his eyebrows, "Where are they now?" ”

Yelu Xiong smiled and said: "We are in Anfeng City, we will hurry up and arrive in less than two days." If you want to come to Anfeng City, like Shouchun, you won't be guarded, and you can just be caught off guard by us. ”

"Good!" He Zongzhe patted Yelu Xionghuo's shoulder and said with a smile: "You are really my ovary." I will personally lead the army tomorrow and rush to Anfeng City, and this Shouchun is to be entrusted to my feet. ”

Yelu Xiong said loudly; "Dare to disobey?"
