Qin Hui left satisfied, in his opinion, Zhao Shuo agreed to the request of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Song army could return to the south bank of the Huai River alive. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But how could things be so simple, the alliance between the Great Song Dynasty and the Hamuhei Mongol State greatly damaged Zhao Shuo's interests, and Zhao Shuo would not let go of this army like this.

After Qin Hui returned to Hamuhei Mongolia, Liu Guangshi's army was exhausted. After learning the news that they could finally leave the Mongolian Kingdom of Hamuhei and return to the Song Dynasty, the whole army was excited and had a full meal for the first time.

After resting for the night, the army bought some food from Muto early the next morning, then said goodbye to Muto and began the journey home.

Qin Hui had Zhao Shuo's assurance, and he thought that he could return to the Great Song Dynasty without any pressure, but he soon found out that he was wrong.

The border between Kerebu and the Mongolian kingdom of Hamuhei was the first obstacle that the Song army had to cross.

When they entered the Hamhei Mongols through here, they were naturally unimpeded, after all, at that time, no matter who wanted to make a move against the Hamhei Mongols, the Kereh would give their full support.

But now it was different, and there was no more fighting in the Kree. and returned to Zhao Shuo.

It stands to reason that after submitting to Zhao Shuo, Qin Hui got Zhao Shuo's promise, and it was not a big problem to pass, but the general order of the guards did not think so.

The Keree Department has just returned to Zhao Shuo now, and now he has not received Zhao Shuo's order, relying on Qin Hui's few words alone to rest assured that the Song army has hundreds of thousands of troops, if something goes wrong, who can take care of it?

So, the defenders told Qin Hui very politely that they had not received the order and could not rest assured for the time being, but they would immediately report and inquire, and once the news Qin Hui said was true, they would be relieved immediately.

Qin Hui was helpless, the Kelie Department had already surrendered to Zhao Shuo, although the Song army had an absolute advantage, they also did not dare to do anything. Because they want to return to the land of the Great Song Dynasty, there are many, many more areas that they have to pass through that Zhao Shuo said controlled.

This time, the speed of the report was still very fast, and only five days later, the guards received the news that the border was cleared.

This made Qin Hui a lot more down-to-earth. But a few days later, the problem reappeared. This time it was the junction of the Kerebu and the prefecture.

The defenders of Fuzhou did not receive the general order from Fuzhou and also needed to report it.

The current Great Song army is already in the control area of Zhao Shuo, and if it resists at this time, it will be much more dangerous than resisting on the border between Kerebu and Hamuhei Mongolia.

In desperation, the army had no choice but to wait again.

After seven or eight days, the defenders apologized again and were relieved.

But at this time, the food of the Great Song army was running out. In order to maintain the daily needs of the army, Qin Hui, who had no choice, could only go to Fuzhou for help.

For Qin Hui, who asked for help, he was very enthusiastic, and also apologized to the Fuzhou defenders for intercepting the Great Song army.

But when Qin Hui proposed to buy grain from the Fuzhou area, his face changed.

"Lord Qin, you have a good relationship with the prince, and Your Majesty is the prince's uncle, how to say, helping the Great Song army is also what we should do, besides, you still buy food, not grab it."

There are a lot of useless things that can be pulled, which makes Qin Hui worried. "What does Master Hou want to say, you might as well say it bluntly!"

"Years of war, food self-sufficiency is not enough...... "Zhi Keqiu frowned. I also want to help Song Jun, but I really can't help it. ”

There can be a shortage of food, but only Zhao Shuo's control area will not be lacking. Not only did they bring back a large amount of grain from the Li Dynasty, but after they brought it back, they began to grow it. Another point, the Chang'an area controlled by Zhao Shuo, as well as Fuzhou, has not experienced much war, and there is no problem with self-sufficiency.

Now he can ask for food is not enough, although it is high-sounding, but Qin Hui knows very well that this is completely fooling him, and the purpose is not to sell it to him.

"Master Hou, I also know that it is not easy for you to save some food, we will pay double, it can be regarded as compensation to Lord Hou, you see, this will not work...... "Without food, the Song army will not be able to survive, and Qin Hui, who was helpless, had to come up with such a strategy.

Facing Qin Hui, who wanted to add money, he pondered again and again, but still shook his head. "It's difficult, food is too scarce now."

"This~!" knew that he was playing tricks, but Qin Hui was stunned and couldn't help it. At this time, he was begging for a discount, and the decision to compromise was related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of Song soldiers.

Qin Hui was angry, but he couldn't spread it, he was depressed, but he could only endure it. "Master Hou, can you think of a way?"

Qin Hui was already close to pleading.

If it was usual, I would have agreed a long time ago, but this time, no, because Zhao Shuo had explained, I wanted to hone the Song army as much as possible, and of course, I would get as much reward as possible from the Song army.

"Lord Qin, it's not good for me to come forward to talk about the food problem, or you can't see it like this......" Zhe Keqiu looked at Qin Hui.

After hearing that Zhi Keqiu's tone softened, Qin Hui hurriedly spoke. "Master Hou, you say, you say, as long as you can get food and solve the problem of rations for the army, you can do anything."

"In this way, the area you pass through is still in accordance with the previous regulations, on this road, I will give you the green light, as long as someone sells grain, you can buy it, in this way, do you think it is feasible." Zhe Keqiu stared at Qin Hui.

"This ......" Qin Hui looked embarrassed. If you don't agree to sell, will someone sell it on the specified distance? For this, in Qin Hui's heart, there was a big question mark.

"Lord Qin, don't worry, the official does not allow selling, but some wealthy big families will still buy and sell in private." seemed to have seen through Qin Hui's thoughts, and Zhe Keqiu specially explained to Qin Hui. "It's just that the price of these people will be slightly higher."

It's good for someone to sell, and the price is more expensive, as early as Qin Hui expected.

Qin Hui expressed his gratitude in folding, and then returned to the army, which continued south.

In the process of the army going south to buy grain, Qin Hui deeply realized one point, that is, Zhe Keqiu told a big lie.

The price of grain is a little higher, it's sky-high. But the Song army has run out of food, and it is not possible to buy it. In desperation, Liu Guangshi collected all the soft of the whole army and asked Qin Hui to buy grain.

But hundreds of thousands of troops, how much food can be bought from rich households, far from the daily life of the army.

Then, there were more and more deserters in the army, and Liu Guangshi was powerless to let it develop and expand.
