Chapter 110: Cui's Manor
"It's unreasonable that you've fought with me unscathed, and you've been injured here. Go back and rest, and then I will make those who hurt you apologize to you. Zhuang Yi said comfortingly.
Duan Zhongzhong seemed to see some clues, and walked to the main gate of the manor by himself to shout. After a while, a fat middle-aged man in his forties hung down with a rope on the wall of the manor, he was wearing a black robe with a round neck and narrow sleeves, with a big shy belly and a swaggering face.
As soon as the middle-aged man came, he pointed at Duan Zhongzhong and scolded loudly: "Who are you waiting for? Dare to lead miscellaneous Hu to make trouble, open the dog's eyes and see the plaque at the door clearly, this is my Boling Cui clan's industry, idle people can't be worried, don't give me a quick retreat! ”
The man shouted so loudly, Zhuang Yi heard it from afar, and couldn't help but think in his heart: Boling Cui is the head of the Shandong Gate Valve, the leader of the northern Shi clan, scattered in Hebei, Hebei, Ding and other prefectures and counties, although it is also in decline now, it is still a hundred-legged insect, and a small army leader like himself really can't be provoked.
Thinking like this, he didn't plan to step forward, and let Duan Zhongzhong come forward to negotiate.
After a while, Duan Zhongzhong seemed to have reported his identity, but when he heard the middle-aged man scold, he scolded: "Is there a Pingliao army under the rule of Youzhou?" Hugh will lie to me, when I don't know where you come from? The proprietor of my house has a mansion in the city, you should return the goods to me quickly, otherwise you will be driven back to the grasslands of Shanbei......"
Zhuang Yi heard this, it seemed that this person knew the origin of his army, and immediately said to Bian Wu: "You go and ask, see if the owner of this house is a branch of the Cui family or a refuge under the Cui family." ”
Bian Wuli ran over, and was soon scolded again, and returned with Duan Zhongzhong, Duan Zhongzhong's face was very ugly, and he said angrily: "That person claims to be the housekeeper of the Boling Cui family's long house, what is the proprietor of his family, Cui Fifteen, and he has not been outstanding, and I don't know who this Cui Fifteen is." ”
"Where does Cui's longhouse live?" Zhuang Yi quickly clarified his thoughts and asked.
"The long room is in Dingzhou, the second room seems to be in Shenzhou, and the third room is in ......"
"Excellent! Fuck the fuck ......"
"What? Military Envoy ...... This is absolutely unacceptable! ”
"Why not? Do you think about who ruled Dingzhou? ”
"The righteousness of the martial arts makes the king save ...... Oh! That's right! Duan Zhongzhong came to his senses and couldn't help laughing. Duan Zhongzhong half complained and half reminded: "Da Lang, you are now the parent official of this Yingzhou, this kind of thing can not be repeated, if you have a bad reputation and get Hebei scholars, this will not be good for you in the future, remember to remember!" ”
Yiwu Jiedu governs Yi and Ding's two states, adjacent to Hedong, and controls the Flying Fox Road leading to Hebei in Hedong, which is completely the thorn in the eye of Lulong Jiedu, a thorn in the flesh, so the successive generations of Lulong Jiedu want to annex Yiwu but cannot get it, and the two sides have become fire and water over time. And Yiwu Jiedu was weak, so he often allied with Li Keyong in Hedong to fight against Lu Long.
"Even if they rob them all, Lu Long and Li Quanzhong will clap their hands when they know it, so ...... We're going to make a fortune again! Who told him to wound my officers first? Zhuang Yi laughed, asked the guards to step forward and tie up the middle-aged man, and then ordered the soldiers to start attacking the manor.
Although this manor is built solidly and solidly, the defense facilities are complete, and those who guard the village are also wearing armor and hanging knives, equipped with bows and arrows, and the equipment is also very sophisticated, but after all, they are not regular soldiers, and they do not know how to cooperate in offensive and defensive operations.
The family members were soon captured, and Zhuang Yi ordered the soldiers to send Na Cui's housekeeper and a group of family members back to the city to be held with the Bohai prisoners of war. Only then did he bring Duan Zhongzhong into the manor to count the goods, and the harvest was really a lot. There are more than 20,000 copper coins, more than 2,000 stones of corn and other miscellaneous grains, more than 500 mules and horses, as well as leather goods, silk silk, coarse salt, porcelain, etc.
Zhuang Yi ordered the soldiers to load more than 40 carts of goods with the current carriages and horses in the manor, and the remaining half had to be transported back and forth again, and he and Duan Zhongzhong circled around the manor twice, and found that the terrain here was hidden, and it was not far from the road to the customs, which should be Cui's cargo transfer station in Liaodong.
"This manor is good, in the future, the messy houses inside will be demolished, and they can be used as military camps, and there is no problem at all with a thousand soldiers, but it is far away from the city." Zhuang Yi said.
"Why bother...... I think it's better to make a warehouse, just send one or two to garrison it. I'm afraid I'm too busy to do too much this year, and when we wait until next year, we will send a large number of caravans to Silla, Bohai, Murowei, Khitan, and the Xi people, and the entire leather business in Liaodong will be eaten, and it will be so easy to raise 3,000 soldiers. Duan Zhongzhong suggested with a smile.
"Yo...... Not bad! Mr. Duan has considered things more and more carefully, which is really gratifying! Zhuang Yi pretended to be surprised and quipped, which immediately made Duan Zhongzhong blush.

Youzhou City, Sui called Zhuo County Jicheng, Tang Waste County Zhizhou, originally called Fanyang, later also called Youzhou, placed Youdu, Ji's two counties. The city is nine miles long from north to south, seven miles wide from east to west, thirty-two miles in circumference, and has ten gates in total, three gates on each side of the east and west, and two gates on each side of the north and south. It is a rectangular castle that is narrow from north to south and long from east to west. There are 26 miles of square in the city, and the business is prosperous, and there are many shops in various markets, and they are even opened outside the gate of the market.
In the eastern part of the city, the Zhao family in Jizhou has a house here.
Since Zhu Yongji went south in King Xi's tent, he first went to Yuyang to visit Zhao Ting, the assassin of Jizhou, and presented Zhuang Yi's letter. After reading the letter, Zhao Ting asked about Zhuang Yi's deeds in the Shanbei grassland, but he didn't say much. A few days later, he asked Zhu Yongji to return to Youzhou with him, and let Zhu Yongji live in his house temporarily.
Early in the morning, under the reminder of the servant, Zhu Yongji got up in a hurry, washed up, cleaned up, and went out with the servant. Under the steps in front of the main gate, there were already servants ready for carriages and horses, and Zhao Ting was sitting in the car, and when he heard the movement, he opened the door curtain and asked Zhu Yongji to get into the car. The carriage was then driven by the coachman and ran all the way to the Jiedu envoy's office in the north of the city.
The carriage did not stop in front of the main gate of the government, but drove to the side door, and after the carriage stopped, Zhao Ting said to Zhu Yongji, who was sitting on the side: "Li Yuanjun was sick a few days ago, and these days have improved, and he privately reported this matter to him yesterday, although he did not explicitly agree, but agrees with you, then there is a possibility that the matter will succeed, you just need to deal with it properly." ”
"Thank you Li Yuanjun for introducing me! A certain is just running errands on behalf of Zhuang Zhongzheng, and after the matter is completed, Zhongzheng will be grateful. Zhu Yongji arched his hand.
"This bastard! Don't mention him! Zhao Ting flicked the sleeves of his robe angrily, and said: "When I see Li Yuanjun later, you will respond as I taught you last night, and say that you will ask someone to introduce you on your behalf!" ”
