Chapter 100: It's finally here

After lunch, Xiao Zhen led the gunners and grenadiers back first.

Cheng Yue said a few words of condolences to them, but he didn't let them rest, and ordered them to return to the dock to help as soon as they returned their weapons.

Of the 126,000 people, 33,000 were from Chongqing and Luzhou, and the rest were ordinary people. Originally, there were only more than 20,000 soldiers, and there were nearly 10,000 villagers. There weren't so many people at first, but Cheng Yue sent a lot of ships this time, especially the military appearance of the escort boats, and officers such as Wang Shiyuan and Xiao Zhen also wore new-style military uniforms. The villagers who were temporarily organized were all bitter, their eyes were red with envy, and they were not at ease with the Mongols, so it was better to stay in the Song Dynasty, so they all got on the boat.

As soon as the people saw that the soldiers and townsmen had all boarded the boat, they were afraid that the Mongols would retaliate and slaughter the city, and those who did not have much property at home also rushed to the ship. In the past few days, the cities of Chongqing and Luzhou have been almost empty, and many of the nearby towns and villages have also dragged their families to come, and there are also self-prepared boats following behind. It wasn't until it was really stuffed that the two places merged into one place, and then they went south.

When the Sichuan Yuan army saw that so many people had left, they all panicked, but they didn't dare to send troops to intercept it, and reported to Boyan, but Boyan had no choice, so he only said: "The peace agreement has been completed, don't make trouble out of nothing." The Yuan army had no choice but to watch this huge fleet slowly go down the river.

Because there are so many boats, there are always some accidents in some boats, so the journey is much slower, and now it has finally arrived.

After Meng Zhijing and Meng Zhijin brothers said goodbye from Cheng Yue, they took a boat to meet the fleet, found Wang Shiyuan and Zhang Yu, the envoy of Sichuan Province, and conveyed Cheng Yue's order.

Wang Shiyuan immediately received the order, although Zhang Yu was a prince of a place, he did not dare to confront Cheng Yue, and immediately agreed.

The Meng brothers led 30,000 people to Shanghai.

At this time, someone came on board again to convey the order. The fleet then split up here, some to Yangzhou, some to Suzhou.

There are still many people left, and Changzhou is far away. Wang Shiyuan saw several ships sailing over with Liu Shun's flag from a distance.

Wang Shiyuan didn't know why Liu Shun came over, did the navy still want to expand the army? Or did Cheng Yue have other orders? Suddenly thinking of the Ryukyus, it suddenly dawned on me that most of the secret roads were high, and now was the most appropriate time.

Liu Shun pulled the boat over, Wang Shiyuan hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and Zhang Yu and others also stood behind him to salute.

Liu Shun greeted everyone with a smile, and walked into the cabin without being verbose, and told Cheng Yue about recruiting people to go to Ryukyu.

When Zhang Yu and the others heard this, they couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Many people have never heard of that place in the Ryukyus, and they have not broken the law, so how can they go to such a far place to suffer?

Liu Shun knew that they would talk like this, so he explained: "You adults don't know. The Ryukyus are not a barbaric place, but beautiful scenery and abundant products, but there are too few people. The governor of the capital ordered that anyone who went to Ryukyu should be divided into ten acres of land per person. That's right, it's everyone. Rice can be harvested three times a year, salt is cheap, and seafood is abundant. Ladies and gentlemen, when did the Metropolitan Governor deceive everyone by telling a lie? ”

Wang Shiyuan hurriedly beat the side drum on the side and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the conditions are so generous, we can convey to the people that if there are those who are willing to go, they will change ships on the Changzhou wharf, and we will cover all the food along the way." Besides, this is an order of the Grand Governor, and the people are voluntary, and it has nothing to do with your lordships. ”

Zhang Yu and others didn't understand Cheng Yue's thoughts, and when they heard Wang Shiyuan say this, they couldn't find any reason to oppose it, so they let Liu Shun recruit them.

So Wang Shiyuan gave the order, and the formation of the fleet changed, and after docking at the Changzhou wharf, it was ready to set off again at any time.

The docks in Changzhou were already going crazy, and in addition to the crowds, there were people sent by Liu Shun telling the people who had just disembarked about the Ryukyus.

At that time, the family was relatively large, and it was not uncommon for a family to have more than ten or twenty people. Sichuan is mountainous, especially this time it is Chongqing people, there are more people and less land, it is very rare for the people to have more than 100 acres of land, and most people only have a few dozen acres of land per household. There were too many people going south this time, and it was impossible for a family to get much land, and I heard that most of them had to work to make a living, so when I heard that one person could divide ten acres of land, my heart warmed. Although the place is a little farther away, rice can be grown three times in one season, and I heard that salt is cheap. At that time, it was not easy to eat salt in Sichuan, and the price of salt remained high, which was indeed attractive to Sichuan people.

At that time, many people were moved, especially those who had few people in their homes, and they surrounded the people sent by Liu Shun and kept asking questions.

Now this is the right opportunity, and if these people are settled down, it will be even more difficult to let them move elsewhere.

The messenger tried his best to persuade the people to emigrate to the Ryukyus, and finally some of the poor people in their families were moved. Once someone signs up, others will be easier to recruit. Hundreds of envoys worked together to recruit tens of thousands of people to go to the Ryukyus.

The wharf became even busier, busy unloading the belongings of the people going to the Ryukyus, loading them onto the big ship, and sending supplies to the big ship. Hundreds of large ships will send these people to work in the Ryukyu Reclamation.

The townsfolk have blended in with the people and disbanded on the spot. Those who disembarked were all regular officers and soldiers. There is no need for Zhang Yu and others to take care of these, and the people sent by Cheng Yue arranged for soldiers to camp outside Changzhou to rest.

Wang Shiyuan and Gu Changde, who was reconciled with them, took Zhang Yu and others directly to Changzhou City to meet Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue is still in the city as last time, Wang Ming, Wang Li and others who have just attached Cheng Yue are Zhang Yu's favorite generals, and they are even more active, but this time most of the army is camped outside the city, and there are not many people who enter Changzhou City, most of them are divided into the periphery, so although there are many people who come, those who enter the city are not as lively as last time.

Even so, the grandeur of the courtesy is the same, and it also makes Zhang Yu and others very moved, although he is the envoy of Sichuan, but he doesn't know that Cheng Yue is huge, and he has given enough face to greet him. But Cheng Yue was not enough, arranged such a big welcome scene, and personally led all the civil and military forces to greet him at the city gate, which can really be called a corporal Lixian. So, Zhang Yu is also considering, what does Cheng Yue want?

Zhang Yu is a native of Shaanxi, joined the army at the age of eighteen, brave and strategic, known as the "Sichuan general", and once served as a deputy general and the main general to stick to Diaoyu City for 12 years! If Sichuan had not been there for him Zhang Yu, it would have been captured by the Yuan soldiers a long time ago. This time, it wasn't until someone from the palace read out the holy decree that he knew that there was another Cheng Yue, who beat the Yuan soldiers so that they couldn't find the north, forcing the Yuan Dynasty to negotiate peace. But Cheng Yue asked them to withdraw from Sichuan, he was very dissatisfied, but the holy decree had been issued, so he could only obey. He couldn't bear to give up on the people, so he brought so many people south.

Along the way, he talked a lot with Wang Shiyuan, and Cheng Yue surprised him again and again. From Wang Shiyuan's general description of Cheng Yue's plan, he understood Cheng Yue's courage. Wang Shiyuan's 100% trust and confidence in Cheng Yue also infected him, making him curious about whether Cheng Yue's ambition could be realized.

Zhang Yu and Li Tingzhi, Xie Fangde, Li Fu and others standing behind Cheng Yue replied to each other and greeted each other. I was surprised in my heart, Li Tingzhi and others were so loyal to the imperial court, but they also invested in Cheng Yue's banner, Cheng Yue, is this person really going to achieve great things? The soldiers and horses around Lin'an have all been subdued by Cheng Yue, and he came back from Sichuan, but the two prime ministers in the court, Liu, Chen, wanted to use him to deal with Cheng Yue, why bother!

Who saved his life? It's Cheng Yue. Are the ministers of the court crazy? Why do you think that you will draw a knife against Cheng Yue according to their intentions? I am indeed loyal to Da Song, but it does not mean that I want to get involved in this kind of thing.

The imperial court wants to guard against Cheng Yue, just go to beware, just go to recruit troops and buy horses, what does it matter to me? Cheng Yue saved all these people, and he didn't take credit. The court also has to deal with such people, and they have forced people to rebel. Isn't that a big fus? If you are Cheng Yue, you will also be cold.

Cheng Yue's civil and military forces are all the choice of the moment, coupled with Cheng Yue's unpredictable weapons, who in the world can resist? Am I that stupid to push me out as a shield, and you guys hide behind and watch the results before making a decision?

Wang Ming and Wang Li are smart people and his henchmen, and it seems that they have taken refuge in Cheng Yue. If you don't vote, you can't do it, the elite soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are all in the hands of Cheng Yue, and in the richest place, Cheng Yue accounts for more than half. If you want to collect Lin'an, it is as easy as digging into your bag.

The situation is already so obvious, but Cheng Yue still disperses his troops to guard the three sides for the imperial court, this composure and forbearance are really admirable.

At present, the traitors in the DPRK and China are gaining power, but Cheng Yue has already achieved his wings, and the next thing can be known without asking, if he stands on the wrong team now, he will never have a chance to stand back in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu's attitude towards Cheng Yue was a little more respectful.

As soon as Zhao An and Wang Shichang met, they immediately understood Zhang Yu's choice. They are all Zhang Yu's henchmen, and they are not fools, it is only beneficial to advance and retreat with Zhang Yu, and they are also very respectful to Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue saw that they knew the opportunity, and he was even more cordial to them. If Zhang Yu can be subdued, it will be of greater help to his plan. Sichuan will have to be taken back sooner or later, and Zhang Yu is the most suitable candidate for governance.

The two attendants who followed behind him with a look of helplessness could only stand there stubbornly, lamenting the futility of this trip.

The evening was a dust washing banquet as usual, Zhang Yu didn't expect that in order to welcome him, Cheng Yue actually cooked in person, and while he was moved, everyone also smiled.

After the meal, at Zhang Yu's request, Cheng Yue took out the legendary weapon and various books he had written.

Zhang Yu admired while reading, holding the book and indulging in it. Looking at this young man again, there was a little more awe in his eyes.

Cheng Yue respects Zhang Yu very much, he is the only remaining famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty, much stronger than Xia Gui. Although he is forced by the situation and has no power to return to the sky, his temperament and strategy are all first-class.

Zhang Yu pretended not to care and casually asked about Cheng Yue's plans.

Cheng Yue knew that this was Zhang Yu's last temptation, and when he saw that everyone was there, he explained his future plan in detail.

As soon as Cheng Yue finished speaking, when everyone was still enthusiastic, Zhang Yu didn't say a word, pushed his military power seal letter in front of Cheng Yue, and said: "From now on, only the capital governor is the head of the horse." ”

Cheng Yue smiled, high-fived Zhang Yu as an oath, and agreed that Zhang Yu would first be transferred to the director of the Department of Transportation, and then lead the troops to fight when Cheng Yue started.

Li Tingzhi saw Zhang Yu so happy, but admired it even more. It's really not interesting to think about my toss again. Now I have done a lot of things with Cheng Yue, all of which are real credits. Cheng Yue doesn't have those complicated ushers here, the official documents are ripped, and Yang Ting and Li Fu are indeed talented, because of their cooperation and help, they have done more work these days than in the previous months.

When people have a sense of accomplishment, they have a sense of belonging, and Li Tingzhi quickly integrated into this place and learned a lot of new knowledge and concepts. If you follow this, you will get twice the result with half the effort, and the so-called prosperity is what it feels like.

This time, the imperial court failed to calculate Cheng Yue, but it strengthened Cheng Yue's momentum.

Cheng Yue already had 140,000 horses, and then accepted these 40,000 people, a total of 180,000 elite soldiers are all a division of a hundred battles, even if there is no Cheng Yue's weapons and command, the face of the Mongolian army can be a battle. Cheng Yue's general trend has been achieved, and it depends on Cheng Yue's own plans.

Li Tingzhi was loyal to the Song Dynasty, and even now, he never thought of doing anything wrong against the Song Dynasty's clan. But for some reason, seeing that Cheng Yue had become stronger step by step to the point that the Song Dynasty could no longer cope with it, he felt very relieved in his heart, and even honored. He himself would not overthrow the Song Dynasty, but if Cheng Yue decided to end the Song Dynasty, he did not want to oppose it now. Why is that? Thinking about it, as Cheng Yue said, this is for the good of the country, and it has nothing to do with loyalty to the Song Dynasty clan.

Li Tingzhi looked at Cheng Yue, who was firm and profound, and thought to himself: Governor Dadu, you are about to enter Lin'an, what do you want to do?
