Chapter 148: Just as the morning light is good

(Double more, double more, I am a double watch)

The wind and rain stopped, and the sky broke through the clouds.

The morning sun pours on the stone pavement. Last night was stormy, but the sound of explosions and fighting in the middle could not be concealed at all, as well as the bursts of fire rising in the dark night and the carriages that kept speeding out of Han Yuan before dawn.

The surrounding people are all closed doors, for fear of harming the pond fish.

On the street outside Han Yuan, there were all soldiers dressed in clothes to defend strictly, horses neighed, and in a moment, there would be a team of cavalry slowly walking through the streets and alleys outside Han Yuan, and immediately the cavalry looked awe-inspiring, and pressed the handle of the knife with his hand, and the murderous aura that was emitted at all times even had the blood stains on the clothes and armor that had not been cleaned, so that those who occasionally had the courage to go to the street subconsciously avoided it.

These cavalry and those foot soldiers are very different from the Xiang army and township soldiers that the people in Pingjiang Mansion often see, these Great Song Dynasty soldiers stood there straight, their eyes did not squint, and their swords and guns were full of light.

And on the high walls on both sides, there are also soldiers armed with crossbows patrolling back and forth.

Two fast horses galloped from a distance, since the incident last night, all the city gates in Pingjiang Mansion have been closed, leaving only the corner gate and the water gate are still open, Rao is so, the top and bottom of the gate are also gathered with soldiers, if you want to enter and exit the city, you need to be subject to more severe checks, and even the brigade of people and horses need to be issued by the prefect.

At this time, those who can come on fast horses must also be people with some status.

The two knights stopped in front of Han Yuan and strode forward, one in front of him was dressed in a gray robe, his appearance was not good, but his gestures were a little out of place with his dress as a scribe, while the other was thin and dark-skinned, and the Jiangnan people could see at a glance that he was a person who begged for a living on the water all year round.

For the appearance of these two people, the hundred battle generals at the door did not stop them, and even the deputy commander of the hundred battles was already standing at the door early, and when he saw the two coming, he immediately bowed his hand: "But the visitors from the East?" ”

"Exactly, under Li Changxi." The gray-robed man smiled without humility or arrogance, "I heard that the envoy fought in Dingpingjiang, and it happened to be the matter of Jiaxing Mansion, so I hurried over to meet him." ”

Wu Chucai nodded, after he joined the Tianwu Army, he rose to prominence in Huangzhou, and was forcibly pulled by Ye Yingwu to kill all the battles, and he also faintly heard about Ye Yingwu's dispatch of people to pass through Piroye Island, and he really didn't know the truth, and now that there are really two guests from the east, Wu Chucai knows that these private rumors must be true.

It's just that he is the most trusted general of the guard, and even if he knows it, he can't make a big deal about it. For Ye Yingwu, he is very grateful, and he also has a deep sense of retribution, it turns out that Baizhan can enter Zhenjiang Mansion at a critical moment and save Ye Yingwu, which has a lot to do with Wu Chucai's commander at that time.

"The envoy is still resting, and please wait for a while." Wu Chucai said softly, "Last night's battle made Jun exhausted, and I and a few other subordinates couldn't bear it, so I didn't disturb the envoy's dream, and I ask for your understanding." ”

Li Si smiled and nodded: "There's nothing urgent, just wait." I have long heard that the scenery of the Han Garden is independent of countless mansions, and it is fortunate to be able to come to see it today, so I will walk around this Han Garden, and the responsibility of defense here is heavy, so I will not bother the general. ”

Wu Chucai nodded, this Han Yuan is now elite inside and out, Li sighed that the two of them can't make any waves: "The envoy is resting in Cui Linglong now, just avoid the two of you." Feel free to do so. ”

――――――――――――――-

"Yang Feng, you bastard, old immortal, let go of Lao Tzu!" Ye Yingwu shouted and sat up suddenly, his clothes already soaked.

The cool breeze blew head-on from the gap in the window, Ye Yingwu shivered, and only then did he gasp and stabilize, the bloody fight in the dream seemed to be really in a dream. I'm still alive.

Hearing Ye Yingwu's shout, Yang Xu, who was already asleep on the edge of the bed in a daze, also sat up all of a sudden, and looked at Ye Yingwu with a smile: "Envoy, it's already daytime, last night's fight is over, don't scold the second uncle anymore, okay?" ”

Ye Yingwu rubbed his swollen temples: "A dream, it's just a big dream?????? What happened last last night? Yang Feng has such a great ability, he even dared to attack a certain person, and he really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall. ”

Yang Xu chuckled and took a brocade to wipe the beads of sweat from Ye Yingwu's forehead: "What Yang Feng is long and Yang Feng is short, that is the second uncle of the concubine, so that Jun Mo is going to call it bad." ”

Looking at the Yang Fu with hidden charm at the corner of his eyebrows, Ye Yingwu shook his head gently, this Yang Fu who can control the enemy on the horse and the man on the horse is really not easy to pick up, if it weren't for the fact that the back house at home is now empty, I'm afraid that such a girl will have to blow up if she gets it back.

Seeing that Ye Yingwu didn't speak thoughtfully, Yang Xu's movements gradually slowed down, and he looked at Ye Yingwu and said very solemnly and softly: "Last night, the second uncle's entrustment, do you still remember it?" ”

Ye Yingwu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled heartily: "If you want to repay the debt, I'm afraid your second uncle will have to come to the door with a knife!" ”

Yang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and put down the Jinpa casually: "Last night, the hundred battles finally arrived, the inner and outer imperial city divisions and those van troops have been killed, and the courtyard is being urgently repaired outside, the second uncle and Jiang Dutong took people to the mansion, stared at Wang Anhe and asked him to issue an order, close the city gates everywhere, and search the fleeing imperial city division." ”

"Liao Yingzhong didn't catch it?" Ye Yingwu suddenly understood in his heart that if Liao Yingzhong caught it, there was no need for the rest of the small fish and shrimp of the Imperial City Division to move the crowd like this.

"Liao Yingzhong has not seen him since Liao Yingzhong appeared outside the high wall in the backyard last night." Yang Xu smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect such a person who just hides behind to give advice on weekdays, but now I have searched all over Pingjiang Mansion but there is not even a figure, it seems that I underestimated him." ”

Ye Yingwu's face was a little heavy: "It turned out that he underestimated him, and he was just a scholar who was powerless and could only talk on paper, but now this person is even better than Weng Yinglong, and the six doors of Pingjiang Mansion were almost wiped out last night, all of which are the credit of this person's central planning." Can't let him out of town no matter what! ”

Yang Xu nodded: "Envoy, you are too tired now, it is better to rest for a while." Sister Hui Niang just went to make soup, and I think it will be delivered in a while. ”

"She's not leaving?" Ye Yingwu was stunned, "Isn't Wang Anhe already going back?" ”

With a wry smile, Yang Xu avoided Ye Yingwu's surprised gaze: "Obviously, you are a lot of harm." This pair of sons and daughters have a gap in their hearts, how can they be willing to go together? I don't know if I can reconcile. What's more, for Wang Anhe, his daughter is here, firstly, he does not have to worry about the Imperial City Division going behind his back, and secondly, he can also be used as a hostage to reassure Yang Feng and Jiang Tie, so why not. ”

Ye Yingwu was speechless for a moment, and sighed after a long time: "Go out and have a look first." ”

"The concubine serves the king and changes his clothes." Yang Xu hurriedly stood up.

Outside, the wind blows the bamboo leaves, rustling.

――――――――――――――-

Tsing Yi and white boots, with a sword hanging from his waist, Ye Yingwu walked slowly on the path in front of Cui Linglong, some blood stains on the ground had not yet been cleaned, and not far away, the original white high wall was already half stained with blood, and it could only be painted again.

There were even scattered arrows that were not picked up.

As for the green bricks and green bamboos that were blown off by the earth-shattering thunder explosion, they fell to the ground horizontally and vertically, and they were in a mess. But the soldiers who came and went in a hurry were all happy, and when they saw Ye Yingwu coming slowly, they stopped and saluted respectfully.

In this stormy battle, they won after all.

Looking at the mountain tower in front of him, there were two figures standing, pointing and pointing in front of him, Ye Yingwu was slightly stunned, and his heart was shocked. And the two people on the mountain tower also saw this young man who came slowly, where did they dare to hesitate, and hurriedly walked down from the mountain tower.

The middle-aged man in front of him was still dressed in the same dress, the inconspicuous gray cloth robe was already a little old, and it was absolutely impossible to see it in the crowd, and the thin man behind him was even more indifferent to a native fisherman.

"Subordinates Li Si and Zhang Gui have seen the envoy!" The two of them didn't care about the dampness of the ground, and at the same time knelt on one knee and said with their fists clenched.

It was Li Si and Zhang Gui who were sent by Ye Yingwu to run the Houlu Piroye Island thousands of miles away, one was a thief on Dongji Island, and the other was a hero in the green forest on the river, and now they were in front of him together, respectfully seeing, which made Ye Yingwu have a trance illusion.

"But Jiaxing Mansion is still going well?" Seeing Li Si and Zhang Gui, the battle between Jiaxing Mansion and other state capitals and the Imperial City Division, which Ye Yingwu had always been concerned about, once again came to mind, but since the two of them came over with joy, they thought they had won.

Li Si nodded: "The Imperial City Division of Jiaxing Mansion has been strangled and killed, but several warships have to expose themselves in order to cover the brothers on the shore. If they have the ability to chase them to Dongji Island, then they will really have no return! ”

"It's all Jiangnan sons of the Han family, there is no need to be so cruel." Ye Yingwu shook his head and advised, "In the future, if you can bring these sailors under your command, it will be a great help." ”

Although Li Si did not approve of the Great Song Dynasty, he still had no ill will towards these people of the same sect in China, and when he saw Ye Yingwu giving such an order, he also smiled and said: "Please also ask the king to direction, even if the subordinate commander Erlang has always disturbed the coast, he has never done anything to slaughter the people, and today the envoy will be more careful." ”

Ye Yingwu's guarantee to Li Si is undeniable, anyway, the soldiers in Li Si's hands are divided into three routes, Bai Nutao, Zhang Gui, and Wang Da each lead one road, and two of them are his own generals, but he will not worry that he will not obey orders.

"Chang Xi, you came just in time," Ye Yingwu pondered for a moment and looked at Li Si, "I think I have also heard about the situation in Pingjiang Mansion, if Liao Yingzhong leaves Pingjiang Mansion unharmed, the future will definitely be a big trouble." Now all the people in Pingjiang Mansion, Jiang Tie and Wu Chucai are still young and vigorous, and Commander Yang Lao is cautious, and there is no one who can really coordinate the overall situation except for Changxi. Here, I still need to ask for a lot of pity. “

Regarding Li Si's ingenuity, although Ye Yingwu knew that he had been deliberately hiding, but with this powerless middle-aged scholar being able to call the wind and rain in the pirate den on Dongji Island, he knew that this was definitely not an idle person, and now in the entire Pingjiang Mansion, except for himself in person, the only think tank that can be relied on is Li Si.

Li Si looked at Ye Yingwu, Ye Yingwu commented on the Tianwu Army figures in the city in front of him, he didn't know what it was for, but when he saw the sincerity in Ye Yingwu's eyes, Li Si, who was already accustomed to conspiracy and wind and rain, was inexplicably moved in his heart, and immediately stopped hesitating: "When your subordinates receive orders, they must live up to their trust." ”

Ye Yingwu nodded: "This matter can't be delayed for too long, even if you have no clue, before sunset today, you must open the city gate and let people come and go, otherwise this important town in the south of the Yangtze River will have to be paralyzed." I regret the heavy responsibility on my shoulders, so take a certain token and go quickly. ”

Li Si took a breath lightly, Pingjiang Mansion is indeed an important town in the south of the Yangtze River, but this also means that the city is vast, and wanting to catch a person in this city for more than half a day is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, but Ye Yingwu seems to have no other choice but to let himself go, even if he really can't catch it, there is no way to say anything.

Maybe at this moment, Liao Yingzhong has already gone out of the city.

However, Li Si still respectfully took the token in Ye Yingwu's hand and turned away. Ye Yingwu glanced at Zhang Gui: "General Zhang, go too, there is a person who is alone." ”

Zhang Gui, who was still hesitating, no longer hesitated, nodded at Ye Yingwu, and hurriedly followed. Ye Yingwu also asked him to help Li Si, after all, Li Si was not Yunwen Yunwu, and with Zhang Gui on his side, he could also avoid Li Si from doing anything unexpected.

After all, for Li Si, Ye Yingwu always felt that he had not firmly controlled him in his hands, perhaps because this person was indeed very smart, which made Ye Yingwu always have an unpredictable feeling, which is why Yingwu did not hesitate to send Zhang Gui, a loyal general, to Piroye Island.

It seems that after the battle of Xiangyang, it is still necessary for him to go to Viroye Island, which is after all the back road that he has painstakingly managed, and it is also the safe haven that he can choose after the failure of the government and the opposition.

Even Ye Yingwu wanted to build various workshops on Viroye Island, and use Piroye Island as a springboard to further control the South China Sea and use it as a resource-rich rear base. After all, the workshop in Tongshan County is too small, at least now it is not enough to support the consumption of firearms for the entire Tianwu Army, and this is all secretly produced in a covert manner, if Jia Rudao finds out or has any tangible evidence, it is a capital crime.

Even the number of the Tianwu army has exceeded the establishment early, but in the Southern Song Dynasty, where the generals everywhere support their own troops, this is nothing, and they often turn a blind eye and pass, after all, they still need to resist the Mongolian iron cavalry in the north.

The road ahead is long, and there are still many bumpy roads. Ye Yingwu stretched out in the morning light and breathed a sigh of relief.

Wisps of morning light shined through the bamboo leaves and branches and sprinkled on his face.

It's very warm, and the morning light is just right.
