Chapter 239: Outwitting (1)
When Liu Yuanzhen left Chengdu Fucheng, the atmosphere of the entire Fucheng City has undergone a great change, the military horse Jingluo made the Yamen announce the implementation of a curfew in the Fucheng, close the city gate every day, and open the city gate in the morning, and the other city gates are all closed, only the south gate is opened, the number of sergeants guarding the city gate has also increased a lot, the south gate barracks are stationed with 300 people at all times, and the audit of personnel entering and leaving the city gate has become extremely strict.

The rest of the east, west, and north gates, and the number of sergeants stationed in the city gate barracks also reached 200, and the vicinity of these city gates was heavily guarded, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach at all.
Unfortunately, such a blockade has not had a good effect, and a large number of people enter and leave Chengdu Fucheng every day, especially the number of people entering Fucheng has increased significantly.
After all, it is a war, everyone will be worried, and the news from the city of Fucheng that the battle will be carried out in Tongchuan and Huai'an, you must know that Huai'an, to which Tongchuan Fu Road belongs, is close to Chengdu Mansion, and no one dares to guarantee whether the war will spread to other places, of course, the people in the prefectures and counties around Chengdu Mansion are not really worried about what will happen to the Song army, they are actually worried about the Mongolian army.
Everyone knows that the Mongolian army fought bravely, but the Mongolian army also had the biggest problem in warfare, that is, wanton looting.
The sergeants guarding the city must also know the reason, they are very strict with the guards of the city gate, but it is not that the people are not allowed to enter and leave the city gate, but at very moments, there is a fee to enter and exit the city gate.
Of course, the sergeants guarding the city gate did not want to lose such an opportunity to make a fortune, and they would charge a certain fee according to the clothing of the people entering and leaving the city gate, and the money collected would go into the pockets of individuals.
On the seventh day of the seventh month, at noon.
The south gate is still bustling, with a lot of people coming in and out, and even starting to queue up.
The sergeants guarding the city kept an eye on everyone who entered and exited the city gates, and there were baskets beside them, in which there were already a lot of copper coins and jiaozi, and even broken silver.
The sergeant's face was very serious, but there was satisfaction in the seriousness, the marshal Liu Yuanzhen had only left the city for eight days, and they had already obtained a lot of money, if it continued according to this trend, when the marshal returned to Chengdu Fucheng, they would be rich.
A group of merchants came in the direction of Chengdu Fucheng.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a humble smile on his face.
There were about 300 merchants in this team, and the team was quite large.
The sergeants guarding the city have seen a lot of caravans, after all, Chengdu has implemented a curfew, and the management is more strict, at this time the merchants enter the city, and they can also do business very well, after all, the flow of goods has also been hindered.
For such a caravan, the sergeant guarding the city will not be polite, and will knock on the bamboo pole fiercely.
"Wait, all the goods have to be unloaded and inspected...
The middle-aged man in the lead, with an embarrassed expression on his face, tried to walk to the sergeant's side.
"What about you, what are you doing so close, all of them are opened for inspection...
"Official, our goods are bundled and ready to enter the city to trade, if they are all scattered here, they will not be able to be loaded for a while, you see if they are accommodating...
The middle-aged man casually took out a bag of money, and the crisp sound of the crushed silver appeared.
The sergeant's face was still serious, but one of the sergeants beside him was relieved.
"Do you know that the commander has an order to strictly prevent merchants from entering the city...
"I know, but we are businessmen, but we are also rules people, we enter the city, that is, we want to do some business, we are all thinking of being able to support our families, we will never mess around, and please be accommodating."
The middle-aged man handed over the bag in his hand directly.
A sergeant took the bag, opened it slightly, looked at it, and then weighed it, a smile of knowing and joy already appeared on his face.
The sergeant nodded to the sergeant standing at the front.
The sergeant waved his hand, meaning that he was allowed to go.
"When you go to the city, you can do business, and if you cause trouble, we will not be polite."
"Don't worry, Master Jun, we will never cause trouble, we are just doing business."
。。。
Soon after the caravan entered the city, several more groups of people and horses entered the city, and these were all large and wealthy families around the city, some from the suburbs, and some from other states and counties.
These teams are also quite large, after all, they are with families.
For these big and rich families, the sergeant is quite polite, almost not much review, after all, these people all have a good identity, maybe some of them have a certain relationship with the military horse strategy envoy or the government officials, if you offend these people, when the marshal returns, the sergeant's life will not be easy.
For several days in a row, although the examination of the sergeants was strict, the number of people entering and leaving the city gate increased significantly, and almost all the inns in the city were full, and there were too many people entering the city.
Chengdu Mansion is still very safe, there are 10,000 troops waiting in the military camp outside the city, in addition to nearly 10,000 personnel guarding around, if there will be any accidents in Chengdu City, not to mention the sergeants guarding here, even the military horse envoy Liu Yuanzhen who went out to fight will not believe it.
Huai'an Jinshui County.
It is only 110 miles away from Chengdu Fucheng, and it can be reached within a day by fast horse.
County office, wing.
Yuan Shichun held the paperwork in his hand and was making a detailed report.
“。。。 On July 5, 240 sergeants entered the city of Chengdu, on July 6, 160 sergeants entered the city of Chengdu, on July 7, 360 sergeants entered the city of Chengdu, on July 8, 240 soldiers entered the city of Chengdu, and after four days, there were 1,000 sergeants entering the city, and today I plan to send 300 people into the city. ”
Wu Shaogang nodded slightly, and after Yuan Shichun finished his report, he spoke to Luo Sulin beside him.
"Luo Sulin, you have been in Chengdu Mansion for all these years, and you are very clear about the situation in the city, so many soldiers have entered Chengdu Mansion City, are there so many inns to live in, according to the information you provided, the large and small inns in Chengdu Mansion City can at least accommodate about 5,000 people, but these days, many people have also entered the Mansion City, and their number is quite large."
"My lord, there is no problem, my subordinates think that there is no problem with three thousand people entering the city, my subordinates have already calculated, there is no need for a room for a sergeant who enters the city, three or five people or even six or seven people in a room, it is okay, so that the store can make more money, and they will not speak."
Looking at the map on the table and pondering for a while, Wu Shaogang spoke again.
"Okay, Yuan Shichun, order Cai Siwei to arrange for a thousand soldiers to enter Chengdu Mansion today, and arrange for a thousand soldiers to enter Chengdu Mansion tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, in addition, the scouts who enter the Mansion City will send out the map in the city the day after tomorrow, and the scouts who are scouting outside the city will find out the situation of the Mongolian army camp, and the map will also be sent the day after tomorrow."
"Luo Sulin, you have done a very good job in Chengdu Fucheng, and have provided a lot of information, which I know in my heart, but then you have to continue to do these things, the next step is that you are going to Yanjing Road, or go to open a restaurant, after taking Chengdu Fucheng this time, there will be a group of Mongolian officials leaving here, these people will be selected from the list you provided, they are your future source of information."
Seeing the bitterness on Luo Sulin's face, Wu Shaogang patted him on the shoulder.
"Luo Sulin, your merit is no less than that of those soldiers who charged into battle, you must know that the information you provided saved the lives of many soldiers, this time we were able to outwit Chengdu Fucheng, your credit is the greatest."
"Yes, my lord, I don't know when my subordinates will leave."
"I'll set off tomorrow, go to Yanjing Road, and go directly to Dadu to gain a foothold."
Zheng Tongwu took Luo Sulin and left the wing room from the backyard of the county office.
After Luo Sulin left, Wu Shaogang spoke to Yuan Shichun, who had not yet left.
"Tong Weihua has been on Yanjing Road for several years, and he has not been able to gain a good foothold, you tell Tong Weihua to let him go directly to Dadu, Dadu is under construction, and it is the best opportunity to go at this moment, and you must find a way to gain a foothold in Dadu."
Yuan Shichun agreed, hugged his fists and left.
A few minutes later, Hao Jing entered the wing.
"Mr. Hao, this time to outwit Chengdu Fucheng, it is just an exception, Liu Yuanzhen never dreamed that we would directly attack Chengdu Fucheng, but after this battle, the Mongolian court and Kublai Khan will definitely be alert."
Hao Jing thought for a moment and shook his head slightly.
"My lord, my subordinates don't think so, when I took the city of Tongchuan, I took this way, two years have passed, the Mongolian court still did not attract attention, last year when the lord conquered Huaibei, he also adopted the tactical arrangement of attacking the east and the west, the Mongolian court is still not vigilant, the subordinates feel that the Mongolian court is contemptuous of the imperial army, I am afraid that for a long time in the future, they will have to pay a huge price for it."
"The situation that Mr. Hao said may occur, but Kublai Khan is very brave, once the city of Chengdu is occupied by us, and Liu Yuanzhen is completely defeated by us, Kublai Khan will definitely pay close attention to the imperial army in Hezhou, and the imperial court will also pay close attention to here, and we will not be as comfortable as before."
Speaking of this, Wu Shaogang's hand pointed in the direction of Bazhou.
"I don't know what the battle situation is in Bazhou Prefecture, this Zhang Jue actually went to Bazhou Prefecture City to direct the battle in person, and also ordered nearly 20,000 sergeants from the imperial army of Xingyuan Mansion to move to Fuyu Mountain, which almost ruined my plan, but fortunately, Liu Yuanzhen has not yet noticed it, I think it is time to send a sergeant to inform the sergeant stationed in Fuyu Mountain to go to the aid of Bazhou Prefecture."
