At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the country was rich but the people were in turmoil, and such a peculiar scene could only appear in the Great Song Dynasty. Especially in the northwest, as long as there is money and food, there is no fear of not being able to recruit soldiers, Zhenghe seven years, the great drought in Sichuan, many refugees have poured into the land of Guanzhong and Hanzhong, and the Xixia people in the north often send troops to attack and disturb the Suide area, but also make a large number of displaced people are concentrated in Tongzhou, Fangzhou, Ningzhou, when the news of the conscription in the same state capital came out, but it caused a lot of shock.

Since the beginning of the political and political periods, the various ministries in Guanzhong have rarely recruited soldiers, because it is too late for the people above to eat empty salaries. This conscription in the same state capital is also a great good thing for the displaced people. In addition to the homeless, together with the young people near the state, they also started to enlist in the army.

In this conscription, Zhao Yougong's goal is to screen out tens of thousands of warriors among this large number of displaced people. 10,000 soldiers and horses is not much, but Zhao Yougong wants to build these 10,000 people into an iron-blooded elite soldier. In this pass, Zhao Yougong has no way to build an army of more than 100,000 people, first time does not allow it, and secondly, too many people are easy to attract attention, and he can't manage it, so he can only take the road of elite soldiers.

That night, Zhao Yougong was pondering the training outline in the study, and he heard Yang Zaixing say outside the door, "Your Highness, Yang Zhi is here!" ”

"Well, let him in!"

Putting down the brush, Zhao Yougong lay on his back in the chair and pinched his forehead a little tiredly. This training outline is not so easy to get, it is too early, everyone can't accept it, but it's too ordinary, and it's useless, in short, it's completely according to the training methods of the Great Song Dynasty, and there is no hope at all. After squinting and resting, he heard the door open. A burly man in a black cloak stepped in.

"Subordinate Yang Zhi. See Your Highness! ”

"Dezhao. You weren't seen when you came, were you? ”

"Your Highness rest assured, your subordinates are very careful!"

"Well, let's sit down first!" After motioning for Yang Zhi to sit down, Zhao Yougong had the heart to take a closer look at Yang Zhi. I haven't seen him for a long time, but Yang Zhi's mental outlook is much better.

"Dezhao, tell this king about the situation of those exiles!"

"Yes, more than 2,400 people were sent from Jingzhao Mansion to Tongzhou Prefecture this time, and most of them committed major crimes of robbing homes and houses. There are a few others who are the same as their subordinates. The more than 2,400 people are roughly divided into three categories, the first group is the thieves from Sichuan, the second group is the local green forest thieves in Guanzhong, and the third group is those who have experience in officialdom. Among them, there are five leaders, namely Cai Bao, Cao Xiao, Mao Eighteen, Wu Liang, and Zhen Tuo! ”

"How complicated is it?" Zhao Yougong frowned tightly, it seemed that it would not be easy to completely subdue this group of unruly exiles.

"Yes, this Cai Bao and Zhen Tuo were born in Bianliang, and they have a lot of surplus wealth in their families, and matching Jingzhao Mansion is also the result of their family's money. The subordinates watched these two people, and they still had their hearts set on the court. If Your Highness wants to completely subdue this group of exiles, you must first pass the level of these two people! ”

Zhao Yougong also secretly pondered in his heart. If you can convince these two people, it is naturally good, if you can't convince them, then you can only find another way.

"Dezhao, you go back first, pay close attention to the movements of these people, and report anything abnormal immediately!"

"Whoa!"

After a few more commands, Yang Zhi left in a hurry. Looking at the closed door, Zhao Yougong thought to himself, it seems that he can only recruit soldiers before the year, and as for the training of soldiers, he has to wait until the new year.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the conscription went very smoothly, so Zhao Yougong had some leisure, so he led Hu Sanniang to Shayuan Town. In the past few days, Ah Jiu doesn't know where to go to the wilderness, and Yang Zaixing also has to arrange a place for Liang Wei to live, so there is only one Hu Sanniang left who can follow Zhao Yougong.

Approaching the end of the year, Tongzhou City was full of joy, but after coming to Shayuan Town, what I saw was a different scene. Many shops are closed, and occasionally a few people walk down the street, and most of them are unlucky. Zhao Yougong has some understanding of the people of Shayuan Town, this town is a military town, and now it is determined to exist in name only, and the residents of the town can survive, and they all rely on small transactions.

A few days ago, people found Han Shizhong's residence, so there is no need to inquire again this time, Shayuan Town is not big, and you can pass through it in the time of riding a pillar of incense. Han Shizhong's place of residence was in the south of the town, isolated from the entire town, and it seemed a little out of place. The wind was very strong, and when I poked the probe a little, a cold wind went straight into my neck. Hu Sanniang was dressed in a gray and white robe, dressed as a man, after nearly two hours of blowing, the jade face was red from the cold, seeing her shrinking her hand and breathing hot, Zhao Yougong took off the cloak and threw it directly.

"Put it on! You, the winter in Guanzhong is not as good as Bianliang, and when you go back, let the princess find you a few thicker clothes! ”

Catching the cloak and listening to Zhao Yougong's slightly reproachful words, Sanniang was somewhat happy in her heart. She touched the thick black cloak and stared at her beautiful eyes, "Your Highness, it's okay!" ”

"Put it on, do you want this king to serve you? Hmph, there are so many people in the palace, it is the most special to lie to you! ”

Looking at Zhao Yougong who was riding away, Sanniang bit her pink lips tightly, and her face was complicated. She knew why Her Highness was angry, but her temperament has always been like this, so how can she say that she can change it? There were also some days when I came to Tongzhou, and as the weather turned cold, most of the people in the house bought some thick clothes, and those who had no money would go to the princess to ask for some. But she can't be like this, she doesn't want to beg for help, besides, in that mansion, she is an outsider after all, what reason is there to go to the princess and Su Steward to ask for money?

This is a typical northwestern courtyard, with low earthen walls, dilapidated fence gates, and not too tall houses in a row. According to the inquiry a few days ago, Han Shizhong married a local woman, Huang, a few years ago, which is the main reason why he stayed in Shayuan Town.

Carefully calculated, Han Shizhong is almost thirty years old this year, a man is thirty, and when he was established, Han Shizhong was still working as a farmer in the small town of Shayuan.

Hey, it's really unpredictable, who would have thought that this seemingly ordinary farmer would become the later four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty? Perhaps, a small change will produce a huge change, just like Zhang Yi, if he didn't appear in this time and space. Maybe Zhang Yi has spent his life in obscurity as in history.

Tie the horse to a tree outside the door. Hu Sanniang stepped forward and shook the gate of the village. He shouted, "Is there anyone in the house?" ”

The voice fell, and after a while, a woman with a flower cloth tied to her head walked out, the woman had an apron around her waist, a beautiful face, and a little dust on her forehead, probably cooking. Look up at the sky. Zhao Yougong smiled secretly, he came at the right time to catch up with the meal.

Thinking that this woman is Han Shizhong's wife Huang, Zhao Yougong bowed forward and said in a harmonious voice, "Dare to ask if this is Han Shizhong's home of Han Zhuangshi?" ”

"Exactly!" Huang's face was suspicious, and the two of them looked dignified outside the door, especially the brocade-robed son, who was a rich and noble person at first glance, how could this kind of person come to visit his own officials on the day of the New Year?

"Are you looking for my family officials?"

"Exactly. I don't know if Han Zhuangshi can be at home? ”

"Unfortunately, my family officials went out to collect firewood. But I want to come back soon. If the two of you don't dislike the vulgarity of the humble house, you can wait in the house for a while. ”

Listening to Huang's words, he was very calm, Zhao Yougong smiled and said, "Then it's bothering!" ”

As Huang entered the room, Zhao Yougong observed a little and sat down at the table. The furnishings in the room are very simple, a table, a portrait of a military commander hanging in front of the door, and a few chairs.

Huang went to the back room, and it didn't take long to make a pot of tea and put a cup, Huang smiled a little ashamedly, "Look at the little officials are also everyone's people, the tea in the cold house is vulgar, and I hope the little officials don't be weird!" ”

"Haha, where is the sister-in-law, in this cold winter wax moon, it is enough to have hot water to warm up, how can you still pick and choose?" As he spoke, Zhao Yougong took a small peck.

Seeing that Zhao Yougong's expression did not seem to be fake, Huang was even more puzzled, he had never heard an official mention that he had such a friend. With doubts in his heart, he opened his mouth and asked, "I wonder how the little official knows my official?" ”

"Hehe, Han Zhuangshi doesn't recognize this son, but Han Zhuangshi has worked under his father!"

"I see!" Huang didn't think deeply, because there were not a few families that Han Shizhong had helped over the years, and there were many big ones. Now that the New Year is approaching, I guess there are some guys who want their own officials to do it.

After sitting in the room for a while, I remembered a hearty laugh outside.

"Lady, what kind of guests are there at home?"

Huang got up and walked out of the house, and after helping Han Shizhong unload the firewood, Fang took out a handkerchief and wiped the dust on Han Shizhong's forehead, "The official is back, there are two guests at home, and the two of them are very extraordinary, and the officials should be careful to deal with them!" ”

"Huh? What guests? ”

"What kind of guest it is, Liangchen might as well guess!"

Zhao Yougong smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Han Shizhong intently. This Han Shizhong is very burly, with long arms, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, and a resolute complexion. In short, from a simple point of view, Han Shizhong gives people the impression of being brave and domineering.

Han Shizhong looked at the person at the door fixedly, and saw that this young man was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but his eyes had the wisdom and maturity of his age. Standing with his hands behind his back, he looks handsome and elegant, and his bearing is even more noble and extraordinary. Suddenly, Han Shizhong thought of someone, could it be him?

Putting away his smile, Han Shizhong said with some sternness, "The lady cooked the robe she got a few days ago, and then prepared some wine and food!" ”

"Okay!"

After returning to the house, Zhao Yougong sat on the chair, Hu Sanniang stood aside, but Han Shizhong was silent, just looking at Zhao Yougong quietly. The atmosphere in the room was a little weird, but after a long time, Han Shizhong made a surprising decision. He took off the cloth around his neck, clenched his hands into fists, bent one knee, and knelt heavily on the ground, "Subordinate Han Shizhong, see the little lord!" ”

Zhao Yougong was quite surprised, he thought that he would have to convince Han Shizhong to spend some words, who would have thought that this would be the case. Calmly frowning, Zhao Yougong was not too happy, "Liangchen get up!" ”

Han Shizhong still knelt firmly, he raised his head, and just asked in a deep voice, "Little master, can you tell your subordinates, how did the old master go?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yougong closed his eyes, and after a while, a cold smile slipped through the corners of his mouth, "A cup of poisonous wine immediately sent me to my life, hehe, when my father died, I only left one sentence, let this king come to Tongzhou!" ”

Listen, Han Shizhong is already in tears, and the old lord is still thinking about Tongzhou before he dies, isn't it because of Ding**? However, he Han Shizhong failed the old master's entrustment, and let Ding** continue to fall, and today, it is already in name only.

Under remorse, Han Shizhong fell to the ground with his hands and cried, "Little lord, Han is ashamed of the old lord, it's over."

Looking at Han Shizhong, who was crying bitterly, Zhao Yougong was not resentful in his heart? But what's the use of resentment? The sword eyebrows were raised, his eyes widened, and Zhao Yougong shouted in a deep voice, "Han Liangchen, you stand up for this king!" Who sued you for sù is over? This king is here, and the ** is here! ”

A simple word, but with an inexplicable desolation and domineering, this is the fate of him Zhao Yougong, since he has come to Tongzhou, he wants to make Ding**'s prestige regain the world.

Maybe the road ahead is still difficult, at least he Zhao Yougong is not too lonely, at least in the land of Guanzhong, there are still ** remnants like Han Shizhong.

Ding** Yuxi, hehe, I really want to thank Zhao Ji, if it weren't for this cautious imperial uncle, how would he know who the real Ding** Yusin is? (To be continued!)
