Chapter 520: Panic is unbearable

Cheng Yue and his wife and concubine went south leisurely, but they frightened Pu Shougeng in Quanzhou.

Since Pu Shougeng received the letter from Cheng Yue to Quanzhou, he has been unable to sleep and eat for several days, and he has been in a panic all day.

After Tokhtar received Zhao Mengchuan's army, he immediately selected 20,000 elite soldiers from them, joined forces with his 10,000 elite troops, and kept going, approaching Quanzhou, asking Pu Shougeng to hand over the military power in Quanzhou. Totoku is Cheng Yue's confidant, and he is clearly determined to win, and Pu Shougeng is not allowed to agree.

Pu Shougeng delayed the transfer of rights on the grounds that it would take time to clear the accounts. On the one hand, he expressed his loyalty to Cheng Yue, and on the other hand, he used the excuse that the accounts were not clear and his subordinates were not satisfied. After Cheng Yue takes Japan, he will reward the heroes, and they may be able to keep the military power in Quanzhou.

However, Cheng Yue's power is still far beyond their imagination. At the important moment when Cheng Yue had just taken sole control of power and began to change the law, and was also preparing for the Eastern Crusade, he handed over the government to Mrs. Wen to take care of, and personally went south to Quanzhou to "meet a few people".

This can only mean one thing, Cheng Yue is very angry with Pu Shougeng's approach, he takes time out of his busy schedule to come to Quanzhou, and there will never be the benefits of Pu Shougeng.

But what about Pu Shougeng? Handing over the military power in Quanzhou, the Pu family can only be slaughtered. They are not from the Great Song Dynasty, when Cheng Yue looked at him unpleasantly, he gave an order, and the Pu family had hundreds of people, and none of them wanted to live.

Quanzhou is an important town, after Pu Shou Geng has been operating for many years, the city defense is extremely strong. There are 30,000 elite soldiers and 20,000 sailors, and they can be doubled at any time! In history, Zhang Shijie and Mrs. Xu and other joint troops besieged and attacked for three months, and the remnants of the Southern Song Dynasty cooperated in the city in vain, which shows its solidity.

However, can these forces deal with Cheng Yue? Absolutely impossible! Let's not mention the hundreds of thousands of wolves under Cheng Yue. Even the navy in which he used to have an advantage is now far behind Cheng Yue's newly established navy. Don't say anything else. He absolutely believed that the cannon forged by Cheng Yue could easily blast his navy into powder! Quanzhou is only responsible for shipbuilding. Cannons can all be in Suzhou!

At this moment, Pu Shouchen, Pu Shougeng, his three sons, and more than a dozen henchmen gathered in the secret room of Pufu Garden, racking their brains to discuss countermeasures.

Pu Shouchen's face was indifferent, and he played with a jade piece in his hand and watched coldly.

Pu Shougeng and Quanzhou Sima Tian Zhenzi, henchmen Sun Shengfu, Lin Chunzi, Yan Bolu, You Yongxian, Wang He, Jin Yong and their three sons Shi Wen, Shi Si, and Jun Wen all had bleak faces, like mourning, and everyone had an expression of impending disaster.

Pu Shougeng sighed and said, "Still don't have an idea?" ”

Quanzhou Sima Tian Mako slammed a punch into the leg. He said hatefully: "Yesterday, Natokh sent someone again, saying that the Governor of Dadu was about to arrive, and asked me to hand over the soldiers and horses quickly, otherwise it would make the Governor of Dadu unhappy, and I was afraid that I would not be able to afford it." I sent the person away, and the man sneered before leaving, saying that I don't know what to do, the Metropolitan Governor will not be as polite as them, if I dare to push in front of the Metropolitan Governor, the Metropolitan Governor can kill me with a wave of his hand. I won't even blink an eye. I didn't dare to answer for a long time, for fear that the man would return to the Grand Duke. made the Metropolitan Governor have murderous intent. Alas, I didn't expect that I, a state Sima, would end up in such a field! ”

Wang He fought a cold war and said: "The Grand Governor went north to conquer the three major Mongolian khanates, and killed seven kings in a row, one of which was strangled alive in front of other Mongolian nobles. As soon as he married Princess Wanze, he went on a killing spree in Dadu, killing more than 1,000 lamas by lot. That's still under Kublai Khan's nose! Most of us are ruthless, why don't we all kill them? ”

Wang He's words made everyone feel cold, and the back of their necks seemed to have been put on a big knife to cut off their heads, and they would be in a different place at any time!

Sun Shengfu knelt on the ground trembling and kowtowed to Pu Shougeng: "Subordinates should not advocate disobedience and disobedience, if the governor is unfavorable to the adults this time, the subordinates will be to blame!" ”

Pu Shougeng sighed: "Get up, how can I blame you?" If you don't say it, I'll do the same. Who would have thought that the Metropolitan Governor would go south to Quanzhou at this time? The Metropolitan Governor often does things unexpectedly, and now it is just another case. ”

Sun Shengfu reluctantly stood up and said, "My lord, for the sake of today's plan, you should take obedience as the best policy, and you must not anger the Metropolitan Governor again, otherwise you will suffer a catastrophe!" ”

Pu Shougeng waved his hand gloomily and said: "I know, the Metropolitan Governor is angry and goes south, how can I be bored anymore?" What I'm afraid of is that the Metropolitan Governor will deal with me and others with a heavy hand, and with the temper of the Metropolitan Governor, if he doesn't cut off a few heads, will he go back? ”

Everyone's necks shrunk, chills swished at the back of their heads, and several people's teeth were already fighting.

Pu Shiwen hurriedly said: "Father, will the Metropolitan Governor take my Pu family under the knife?" ”

Pu Shougeng said: "My Pu family has made great contributions to the Metropolitan Governor, even if the Metropolitan Governor is angry, there is no reason to kill us immediately." What we are afraid of is that the Metropolitan Governor will warn us and make an example of other people, so wouldn't they be extremely unlucky? ”

Pu Shougeng's henchmen were all terrified, and when they looked at each other, they all saw indescribable fear in the eyes of others!

Lin Chunzi clapped his hands together, beat his chest and said, "I regret not being at the beginning!" Knowing that most of the governors are ruthless, why bother asking for trouble? is now in a dilemma, so many people's lives are in danger! ”

A wave of anger suddenly rose in Pu Shougeng's heart, but his eyes did not look at anyone. With life and death at stake, he really had no reason to be angry with them.

There was a dead silence in the secret room, even the sound of a violent heartbeat could be heard, and the despair of the end permeated every corner, making it difficult for everyone to breathe.

After a long time, You Yongxian stammered: "No...... If not, take advantage of the Metropolitan Governor's ...... Before it arrived, a few of us ran ...... Let's run. ”

Pu Shougeng's second son, Pu Shisi, was furious, slapped it on the coffee table with a "bang", pointed at You Yongxian and scolded: "Bastard! Run? Where are you going? Guangdong has lost its sincerity to the metropolitan governor, Guangxi and Qiongzhou have long been in the hands of the metropolitan governor, do you run to Annam and Zhancheng? Believe it or not, you will be intercepted and killed wherever you go? Even if you can run, can the Metropolitan Governor not settle the account on our Pu family? How many of our three brothers do you want to die? Is it only the eldest brother who will inherit the lineage? ”

You Yongxian was scolded so embarrassed that he had already scolded the eighteenth generation ancestor of Pu Shisi in his heart. Your Pu family only cares about your own life, don't you care about our life or death?

There was silence in the secret room again, and everyone was thinking about a way out, but where was the way out?

Pu Shougeng turned his head to look at Pu Shouchen, saw his thoughtful look, and asked with the hope of what happened: "Big brother, in a few days, has the eldest brother come up with a good plan?" ”

Pu Shouchen coughed lightly and said slowly: "Katsuo is right, since he is invincible, he must be doubly obedient." If you want to avoid trouble, you have to think of what can make the Governor calm his anger. In my opinion, if we can lend all the great merchant ships to the Metropolitan Governor to transport grain and grass, and then hand over all the boat divisions under our command to the Metropolitan Governor, and fight desperately on the day of the conquest, we may be able to reduce the anger of the Metropolitan Governor a little. ”

Pu Shougeng and everyone were dazzled, and Pu Shougeng said: "Big brother, go on." ”

Pu Shouchen continued: "These are not enough, the Metropolitan Governor is likely to march south next year, no one in the Great Song Dynasty is more familiar with the southern countries than us, with us leading the Metropolitan Governor's naval expedition, the Metropolitan Governor can get twice the result with half the effort." In the distance, the Metropolitan Governor may also use us, as long as we repent deeply and do our best to repay us, what good is it for the Metropolitan Governor to kill us? Moreover, I urge you to give up all the land that you have seized by force, and to compensate the people with a large sum of money. Most of the governors look at the points that you know and can be corrected, so it's not good to cut off your heads one by one, right? ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone couldn't help but applaud loudly! It hurts to hand over the land and money, but it is better than losing your life. Land can be bought again, money can be earned again, and there is only one life!

Pu Shougeng's youngest son, Pu Junwen, smiled bitterly: "I knew today, why bother in the first place!" Not to mention that the military power is still handed over, and you have to take so much land and money, alas~! ”

Pu Shougeng sighed gloomily: "This is the lesson!" We are too carried away, thinking that we have a lot of credit to the Metropolitan Governor, so we can bargain with the Metropolitan Governor, don't we know that the Metropolitan Governor hates people who are proud of their merits the most! After a few days, the Metropolitan Governor arrived in Quanzhou, and we all had to deal with it carefully, whether it was a blessing or a curse, all in the Metropolitan Governor's thoughts. As long as you succeed in winning the favor of the Metropolitan Governor and raising your noble hand to us, you will have the opportunity to make up for today's mistakes in the future! Quanzhou's city division is the top priority, we must keep it, otherwise we will all die and have no place to be buried! ”

Everyone kept nodding their heads and saying yes, regretting it in their hearts. Just like Pu Shougeng said, they really didn't know their catties, Cheng Yue had already made up his mind, and they still wanted to keep their past power. But the day of the Great Song Dynasty has changed, the Metropolitan Governor is no one else, no one dares to disobey the orders he gave in the Great Song Dynasty, and they actually have the audacity to secretly obstruct the Metropolitan Governor's most trusted general to take off and carry out the orders of the Metropolitan Governor, isn't this looking for death? Is it important to have your life or to preserve all the powers? What a foolishness!

Pu Shougeng said: "I will go back to prepare for the past few days, as soon as the governor arrives, what should be done must not be delayed, the big deal is that I will kowtow with you, and if we can survive this hurdle, we will have a chance to make a comeback!" ”

Everyone said in unison, "Yes." ”

Pu Shouchen said: "Go, that's all for today, you have to keep to yourself in the past few days, don't let the Metropolitan Governor catch the handle!" ”

Everyone saluted and said goodbye together, and quickly walked out of the house to go home to make proper arrangements.

After everyone left, Pu Shougeng immediately ordered the whole family to mobilize to clean up the inside and outside of Pufu, and replace everything that needed to be replaced, ready to welcome the arrival of the Grand Governor. (To be continued.) )
