At night, the night of the Daimyo Mansion is still under curfew, and the Daimyo's Mansion that has not been curfew for more than 100 years, as long as it is night, the streets are full of soldiers patrolling back and forth, and no one is allowed to go out and move around. It is also a wartime martial law enforcement.

Zheng Zhi had eaten enough food and walked out of Lu Junyi's mansion, Lu Junyi had already moved to Cangzhou, and this mansion was also the only property that Lu Junyi kept in the Daimyo's mansion, and it was also Lu Junyi's ancestral home.

There is also a small mansion next to the house, and now this mansion has been changed into a stable dedicated to raising horses, and this famous mansion has many good horses under Lu Junyi. Now the stables are also idle. Cai Jing was locked up in this stable.

Zheng Zhi approached the stable, and at a glance, he saw Cai Jing who was tied to a pillar inside, and there were many soldiers guarding him on the left and right.

Before Zheng Zhi came to the end, Cai Jing had already opened his mouth and scolded: "Zheng Zhi, you dog thief, he will have a day when you will be beheaded." ”

Cai Jing is not Cai You after all, Cai Jing is the rich generation who started his own business, and he can come to this point, from an ordinary scholar to a person who leans towards the government and the opposition, regardless of his mind and tenacity, he is far better than ordinary people.

Zheng Zhi walked up to Cai Jing and said, "Cai Jing, tomorrow I will ask you about the sacrificial flag, what else do you have to say?" ”

Cai Jing was stunned when he heard this, and shouted: "You dare to kill me? ”

Cai Jing probably still had luck in his heart, that is, Zheng Zhi didn't dare to kill himself, and he traded himself with the imperial court. People are always like this, and they will feel that they are very important, not to mention Cai Jing, the pillar of the court. After so many years and ups and downs, Cai Jing even felt that this court could not function without himself.

But when the words came again, the dismissal of the prime minister again and again was reactivated, which seemed to prove this point, that is, Zhao Ji really couldn't leave Cai Jing, and without Cai Jing, everything was not going well.

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he smiled contemptuously and said, "It seems that Taishi Cai still doesn't know his situation, and he was originally going to let you have a full meal tonight and go on your way tomorrow morning." Taishi Cai doesn't seem to be willing to admit it, so be it! ”

After Zheng Zhi finished speaking, he turned around and ordered: "Come on, bring a whip, beat me!" ”

After a while, the soldiers on the left and right stepped forward to fight. The whip was whipped on Cai Jing's body, and it hurt so much that Cai Jing's facial features were twisted together, Cai Jing seemed to know that Zheng Zhi might really want to kill him at this time, so he hurriedly said: "Zheng Zhi, if you let me go back to Beijing, why not seal Yan Yun to you." How about the name of the rightful Yan King? ”

Zheng Zhi shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Yan Yun is already in a certain bag, so he doesn't have to worry about it. Maybe the Taishi doesn't know that Cai You has been killed by someone, and it is your daughter and Liang Shijie, who are also the hands of someone. With such a deep hatred, if Taishi lives, wouldn't he be an enemy who will never die. How could such a thing be done? ”

"What?" Cai Jing was furious when he heard this, and he only felt pain in his heart, more than a hundred times more painful than the whip on his body. was already like crazy, and shouted again: "Zheng Zhi... Zheng Zhi... I will skin you and eat your flesh, and break your bones and suck the marrow. You must not die well, you must not die well... ”

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a good death, tomorrow Taishi Cai should behead him in front of tens of millions of people, and then crush his bones and scatter ashes, I don't know if Taishi Cai is not a good death." Zheng Zhi said coldly.

Cai Jing shook his head desperately, his whole body trembled, and he was still scolding: "You can't die well, you can't die well, wait until the imperial court sends an army to come and teach you to copy and behead all over the door, and cut all over the door... ”

Zheng Zhi no longer answered Cai Jing's words, and only said to the left and right: "The whip is not allowed to stop, and after an hour, throw this guy into the stable over there and lock him up, and tell him to lie in the horse manure tonight." Find the head of Qin Hui and tie it to him, and the two of them can sleep together tonight. ”

The left and right military men gave the order. Zheng Zhi turned and left.

Cai Jing, who was unkempt, was still hoarse and scolded loudly. Where did the soldiers on the left and right hear Cai Jing insulting Zheng Zhi by name, and after finding a sackcloth to gag his mouth, the whip became more and more vigorous.

Zheng Zhi frowned and walked out of the stable, the night had ended, and more than 20,000 foot soldiers had finally arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion.

In the hall of Lu Junyi's mansion, the generals also arrived.

Zheng Zhi invited the planter to sit in the first position on the left. Then he said, "Tomorrow we should continue our march south, and we will discuss it tonight." ”

Several soldiers unfolded the map one by one and placed it on the ground, and a group of generals stood around it.

When the seed master came to the end, he had already spoken: "The Tokyo forbidden army has fled, and some of them should also go to Puyang City, Kaide Prefecture, tomorrow you can go to Puyang City first, after breaking Puyang, there is no strong city along the way." Two hundred miles to the south, you can besiege Tokyo. ”

"Okay, the little kind of minister has a good plan, and he broke Tokyo, so he asked my brother to sit as emperor." Luda laughed loudly, this is also the first time that Luda said the words of Zheng Zhi as an emperor. Obviously, Ruda has been thinking about this for a long time. I also wanted to say this sentence before, but I was stopped by Zheng Zhi.

As soon as Luda's words came out, all the people on the left and right trembled, and they all looked up at Zheng Zhi.

Some people also opened their mouths and chimed in: "If Xianggong becomes the emperor, wouldn't we all be the founding heroes, haha... ”

"Okay, I'll break the city of Tokyo with the prime minister, and I'll wait for all of them to enter the phase in the future, hurry up, hurry up...

"In this way, doesn't it mean that Xianggong alone destroyed the Song, Liao, and Xia, and the first heroes of ancient and modern times."

。。。。

The words of the crowd came and went, not to mention Shi Jin, Wu Song, Yan Qing and the like, even Han Shizhong, Yang Keshi and others also opened their mouths to echo.

But there are also many people who are silent, just silently watching the left and right elated, among which Yue Fei is the silent person.

Zheng Zhi raised his hand, and after the voice stopped, he said: "This time the soldiers besieged Tokyo, not to change the dynasty, but to fight with you for the right to live. A certain has been fighting at the border for several years, but he was framed by those dog officials in the DPRK and China, and even took advantage of the bloody battle with the Liao people to send troops to Qingchi to take our family. The sorrow of Di Xianggong and the kind of Xianggong must not be repeated in us. I would also like to ask you to go to Tokyo and ask for an explanation. ”

Zheng Zhi obviously knew the thoughts of many people in the army, and even the thoughts of the grassroots soldiers, just like the expressions of those silent people today, just like the soldiers on the head of the Daimyo's Mansion who were beheaded because of slacking off.

Some things can only be subtle and cannot be achieved overnight. This Great Song Dynasty is not destroyed by breaking Tokyo, the world is so big, anywhere can accommodate this Great Song Dynasty.

What Zheng Zhi wants is time and space, enough territory and enough time, so that he can be invincible, let himself establish enough power, and accumulate enough people's hearts.

Just like the power of the Jurchens, they really fell into the quagmire of the Great Song Dynasty, and they couldn't really destroy the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty had a broad strategic depth, and when the whole country and nation reacted, and when the whole people began to resist, and then there was another Yue Fei, he could still defeat the invincible and overwhelming Dajin Kingdom one after another.

This is not a situation that Zheng Zhi is willing to face. All the idea of breaking Tokyo, Zheng Zhi really didn't think about it at this time. Wait for the territory to be stable and the people's hearts are in order. is Zheng Zhi's real time. At this time, it seems to be an opportunity, but when it is seriously analyzed, there are many crises.

How to achieve a neat heart, the method is also brewing in Zheng Zhi's heart. It is to give enough benefits to his subordinates, like Qin, like Tang. Let the soldiers become a class with vested interests by virtue of merit. Wars are not fought for the sake of food, but for the sake of future generations.

Then there is a human heart, at that time, no soldier would be willing to Zheng Zhi to fail, Zheng Zhi's failure means that everyone's vested interests are gone, and fighting and winning with their lives is the way to protect their vital interests. In the final analysis, it is also a reform of the social system, and this law is the heart of the army and the people. At that time, it will not be a war between Zheng Zhi and Zhao Song. It is a competition between the advantages and disadvantages of the two social systems.

At this time, the ruling foundation of the Great Song Dynasty was not lost.

Those silent generals listened to Zheng Zhi's words, and their atmosphere was relieved, and their faces relaxed.

But it was Ruda who said stupidly: "Okay, that's okay, so I'll go to Tokyo to ask for an explanation." also gave my brother a bad breath. ”

The seed master looked at Zheng Zhi and did not speak. But he nodded again and again, only feeling that Zheng Zhi had made a correct decision, accumulation is the key, and only by stabilizing his own interior can he try to be strong outward. If you want to dominate the world, a stable base area is a must, and the records in the history books have proved this truth time and time again.

The purpose of the next battle has been set, and everyone around the map began to discuss the battle plan.

After the meeting, the crowd dispersed, leaving only Ruda.

Cai Jing, whose flesh and blood were blurred, was locked in the stable, blood and horse manure were intertwined, and a bloody head was tied to his body. In the drowsiness, there were still the voices of a few guards outside the door from time to time.

The pain in his body and the pain in his heart were intertwined, making Cai Jing, who was over seventy years old, faint like this.

The moon had set in the east, and several dark shadows had turned in through the walls of the courtyard of the stable, and there was no one outside the stable.

The shadows opened the courtyard door, and several more shadows walked in carrying several corpses, which were placed outside the stable.

Immediately, a man stepped forward with his hands and feet to pry open the copper lock outside the stable, and when he picked the lock, there was a sharp sound.

Cai Jing was awakened by this sound, and the pain in his body immediately poured into his brain, grinning in pain, and in the dark, he subconsciously said: "Who?" ”

A black shadow walked in and said: "Don't shout, Taishi, the little one is Wu Ze, the guard next to Taishi Tong, who came to the rescue on the order of Taishi Tong, Taishi Tong is already waiting, and Taishi Cai, who was rescued tonight, went out of the city and fled back to Tokyo together." ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Help me untie the rope." ”

Wu Ze untied it and hurriedly stepped forward to cut the rope on Cai Jing's body, and a head also fell to the ground.

A few more black shadows walked in, picked up Cai Jing and walked out. Cai Jing still remembered the head that had been tied to him for a few hours, and said: "Take Qin Zhongcheng's head with you and take it back to the official family to see, such a dog thief will teach him to be beheaded all over the house, and he will not die well." ”

Wu Ze turned around and picked up his head, and walked out of the door. Cai Jing went out, and under the moonlight, he naturally saw several corpses outside the door.

On the street, there are patrolling soldiers everywhere, but Wu Ze can always know in advance and avoid it calmly.

The group arrived under the city gate in less than two quarters of an hour, Cai Jing endured the pain on his body and asked, "How to get out of this city gate?" ”

"Don't worry, Master Tong, there are confidants in the army to help him, and he went directly to it, Master Tong has already arranged it." After Wu Ze finished speaking, he personally carried Cai Jing and left.

Near the city gate, the lights are bright. But there were not a few military men, only a dozen men stood under the city gate, and the first one also gestured to Wu Ze.

When you get close to the city gate, there are corpses on the left and right. A crack was also opened in the gates.

Coming out of the gap, a carriage was already waiting at the door. Wu Ze helped Cai Jing into the carriage, and inside the carriage, it was indeed Tong Guan.

Cai Jing hurriedly shook his head, and said, "Thank you Master Tong for saving your life." ”

Tong Guan saw Cai Jing, who came in, didn't pay attention to it, but just sighed in his mouth: "Good intentions!" ”

Cai Jing didn't know why, so he only said: "Thank you Master Tong for your good intentions." After returning to Tokyo, the old man will have a follow-up! ”

Obviously, Cai Jing didn't know what Tong Guan meant, what Tong Guan said was Zheng Zhi.

The carriage had already started and was galloping south. After a while, the left and right guards found horses on the side of the road, and the group beat the horses and walked quickly. Take advantage of the darkness and head straight to Tokyo.

At this time, above the head of the Daimyo's mansion, two figures appeared.

"Brother, according to the will of the Sprinkle family, Cai Jing, the dog thief, should be beheaded, how can he be let go." Ruda said indignantly, but it was tonight's matter, and Ruda was also involved. Wu Zeneng took Cai Jing to get to the city gate safely in the full field of patrol soldiers, which was arranged by Luda before and after.

Zheng Zhi shook his head and said, "Originally, I was also going to kill this guy, but I can't help but repay my kindness." This will also allow Eun Sang to spend the rest of his life in Tokyo. ”

Obviously, Zheng Zhi went to the stable to torture Cai Jing in front of him, also for the sake of this play, to make this play realistic. Let Cai Jing inherit Tongguan's life-saving grace.

The only one who can keep Tong Guan in Tokyo is Cai Jing. Cai Jing is also destined not to be extinct, and the reason why his fate should not be extinguished is not because of the great Song Dynasty, but because of the eunuch Tong Guan.

"Brother is benevolence and righteousness, if it is a sprinkle family, he will behead this Cai Jing, raise Tong Taishi in Cangzhou, and worship it with delicious and easy use. Isn't this also a return of kindness? Ruda said again.

Zheng Zhi shook his head and didn't say much. Turn around and slowly descend to the top of the city.

Cai Jing, who was covered in injuries, was in good spirits at this time, looking at the farther and farther city wall, his heart gradually settled down, and he asked again: "Master Tong, can the thief embarrass you." ”

Tong Guan shook his head and said: "I have never been embarrassed, there are many familiar generals in the army, and Zheng Zhi must not be excessive." ”

Cai Jing nodded, not doubting him, but said: "I only hate Master Tong, you don't know anyone, and you reuse this wolf with ambition." caused today's catastrophe, and the official family must not be spared. ”

"The human heart is the most difficult to understand in the world." Tong Guan said an ambiguous word, but he was also cooperating with Zheng Zhi's good intentions.

"But Master Tong rest assured, as long as the old man arrives in Tokyo, he will do his best to keep you safe, and it will not be in vain for you to risk saving my life." Cai Jing's words are already grasping people's hearts again.

Tong Guan naturally understood, and only replied: "Don't worry, Taishi, there should be no more complications when I go back to Tokyo this time, and I will be able to go to Kaide Mansion tomorrow and find a doctor to treat Taishi." The Taishi is full of skin injuries, which will heal in some time, and when the court is in trouble, the Taishi is also needed to stabilize the court. ”

Cai Jing heard this, and the last bit of worry in his heart was completely put down.
