Chapter 664: Where is the way out

With a warm southeast wind, spring is gradually becoming stronger in the south of the Yangtze River. Perhaps because of the discovery of the Mingzhou Continent, which was full of gold and silver, gave the greatest stimulation to all sides, the original weak Ming and Song Dynasty wars gradually became fierce and bloody - gold, 100,000 catties at a time! Everyone can imagine how rich Mingzhou is. Even the powerful warlords of the north and south, who had no interest in overseas fiefdoms, now wanted to get a piece of land in the gold and silver producing areas of Mingzhou. And the sea was firmly controlled by the Ming Navy. Now in addition to fighting hard, it seems that there is no other way to go to Mingzhou.

Therefore, the first to start the war was the warlords of the Ming Dynasty, and after getting the promise that they could have vassal territories in the gold and silver production areas of Mingzhou, the warlords no longer stayed behind and went all out to enter the war.

By the way, Chen Dexing is of course a traitor, and he has packaged himself as a demigod and deceived all mankind. But in terms of "little things", his reputation has been very good so far, and it can almost be compared with the legendary Zhou Wu King Ji Fa. All of them believed in his promise - he was a demigod, and there was an unimaginable world to distribute, and there was so much gold and silver that he could not dig up, could he be guilty of deceiving a few local warlords and heroes?

Li Yanguo in Shandong, Shi Tianze, Zhang Rou, and Yan Zhongji in Shanxi, Zhang Bangzhi (Li Yanguo's vassal) in Xu Pi, Xia Gui in Huaixi, Gao Gao in Xiangyang, Lu Wenhuan in Jiangling, Lu Wende in Chongqing, Yang Wen in Banzhou, Yu Xing in Chengdu, and even Liu Quan and Zhang Jue in northern Sichuan, all sent large armies as much as possible. They assembled near Chuzhou and Ezhou respectively, and fought a series of battles with the Song army at Jiangxia Mountain and Gaoyou Lake. Immediately, Jiang Wanli, the current Pingzhang military and state affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, felt tremendous pressure!

In the other main battlefield, Liangzhe Road, a large-scale bloody battle was not staged. However, the intensity of the Ming army's attack increased sharply after the arrival of spring. Fifteen counties, including Tiantai, Xianju, Yueqing, Yongjia, Ruian, Pingyang, Fenghua, Xinchang, Shengxian, Yanguan, Kunshan, Changshu, Wujiang, Dongyang, and Jiading, were attacked almost simultaneously! It is still the way of "the countryside surrounds the city". It is still the old way to sweep away the righteous gate and seal the military households. However, the scale of the dispatch has increased from six brigades last year to 22 brigades, of which 16 are old units of the Ming army. The other six are newly built brigades with military household soldiers as the main force.

And in Lin'an, the capital of Liangzhejiang Road, people seem to have become numb to the news of the war. Streets and lanes. The topics that people are most concerned about are still the Mingzhou Continent, Jinshan Yinshan, and Chen Dexing's Destiny. Lin'an is really a well-informed place, even if Jia Rudao repeatedly ordered to block these news that might deify Chen Dexing, people from all walks of life in Lin'an City still knew everything, and they were all talking about it.

"Straight lady thief, this is also mysterious, what is thousands of miles away, King Ming can actually know! This shows that the king is not a god, and no one believes in it. ”

"Destiny, this is destiny! Whatever you want, you have everything. Whatever you want, even the gold and silver mountains are available, compared with the Ming King, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty is really not successful. ”

"Drink! 100,000 catties of gold! It's really like a mountain of gold to pile up the wharf of Shenjiamen! Do you know where the gold comes from? That is all given to the king of Ming, the god knows that the king of Ming is short of money for the war, so he prepared a mountain of gold and silver for the king of Ming in Mingzhou, and the gold and silver can't be dug up! If only I could go to Mingzhou to dig some, my heart is not black, just dig a thousand taels of gold......"

"Think beautifully. Mingzhou has gold and silver, but it is not our turn to dig it, we are still the people of the Great Song Dynasty, this mountain of gold and silver, I am afraid that the people over there in Zhoushan and Quanzhou will dig it up......"

"It's almost not. King Ming has a mandate of heaven, and the Zhao family's qi is exhausted, and the world has allowed their old Zhao family to sit for three hundred years. I've lost all the Central Plains, shouldn't I try another one? ”

"Be quiet. Lin'an City is still the world of the Zhao family! Didn't you hear that Master Jia was refuting the rumors? There is no Mingzhou, there is no gold. There is no Ming king who has come to the world, and the world of the Great Song Dynasty is still a prosperous era of Qingping......"

The small people in Lin'an City are like this. The talented gentlemen gathered in Lin'an, when they gathered in the past, they could still talk a few words, point out the country, comment on current affairs, and sometimes say some very insightful words.

For example, the weakness of the Song Dynasty stemmed from the separation of soldiers and peasants, and the separation of soldiers and peasants, all relying on money to recruit soldiers, resulting in soldiers only having money in their eyes, and no court knowing loyalty. Moreover, most of the recruited soldiers have no permanent production and no perseverance, and they can't just change their masters, how can they compare with Chen Dexing's soldiers.

And it is not right to use regimental training to solve the separation of soldiers and peasants, because the regimental training soldiers are all landless people, and in fact, they are fighting for a few salaries, and they are also obedient to the talented officials above, and they will never be effective in dying. If you want a soldier to die, you must have real land...... The reason is good, but the solution is not available to these talents. Even if they are willing to distribute the land accumulated by their ancestors for generations to the regiment for military training, it will be too late.

During this time, the talents didn't even have the heart to find a way for the Great Song Dynasty, and gathered in the teahouse and wine shop in Lin'an, just sighing and whispering, all of them were relatively speechless.

"The number of gas has to change, the number of gas has to change!"

"The surname Chen has won the country, do we, who are scholars, still have the opportunity to take the imperial examination?"

"I still have the imperial examination, my head is gone, and I still think about these boundless things. Let's just wait for the catastrophe to come! ”

"It's not like this, the Great Song Dynasty has a long fortune! If it really doesn't work, let's go to Hongdu...... Jiang Pingzhang has more than 100,000 regiments to train troops! Haven't you defeated the Ezhou army of Ming thieves before? ”

"Isn't the Ezhou army Zhang Sheng, can he compare with Chen Dexing? I don't know yet, now that Xia Gui, Lu Wende, and Gundam are a few of them, Jiang Xiashan will be fighting hard again and again! ”

"Let's go, we are also the emperor's favor, and we always dare to die in distress. Let's wait in Lin'an, and as soon as the city is broken, we will jump into the well......"

The scholars discussed one by one with a gloomy face, and the more they came later, the more they were relatively speechless, only sighing. Suddenly, someone whispered.

"I heard that the righteous men who fell into the hands of Chen Dexing were not killed, but were arrested and imprisoned on Peach Blossom Island, and some of them even became diners of the blessed king Chen Huaiqing......"

Immediately, someone glanced at him, "This is also better than death!" Those of us who read the books of the sages should know the word loyalty! How can you be a thief? It's still a ...... What a diner! Wouldn't it be disgraceful to learn in life? ”

Someone then responded: "Yes, in my opinion, there is only one way out!" Go to the army! Join the gentleman's camp of Master Jia, everyone huddles in a group and fights to survive......"

As the name suggests, the gentleman's camp is the head of the camp where gentlemen serve as soldiers. Although the talents were reluctant to become soldiers, Jia Rudao did not give up, not only mobilized bitterly, but also took out the houses of North Nedeshou Palace and Rongwang Mansion to arrange the families of the Junzi Camp, and swore to ensure that the Junzi's family was well fed and clothed, and also let the Junzi Camp arrange a meal of meat every ten years - this food treatment seems to be much worse than that of the tenants' military household brigade, but for Jia Nidao, it is already a bloody capital. All kinds of efforts, there are still some achievements. The Junzi Battalion in the Yamen of the Military Department in Chaotianmen has finally gained some popularity these days.

"Defend the Holy Way and swear to destroy Chen Wei!"

Three or four thousand gentlemen shouted in unison, and sure enough, there was some momentum. Jia Yidao, Li Tingzhi and Liao Yingzhong now come to the Junzi Camp every day to have a look. Seeing that there were more gentlemen in the gentleman's camp, the ranks of the gentlemen were more tightly organized, and their movements of wielding knives and guns were more proficient. The hearts of the three of them were a little more stable.

"It seems like there are more people." Jia Rudao stroked his white beard, counted it roughly, and showed a pleased smile on his face.

"Taishi, five hundred and fifty-three people have entered the gentleman's camp in the past few days." Li Tingzhi took over the topic. This gentleman's camp is being trained by him personally, and the leaders of the following small camps are either people from the Tiantai Jia clan or children of the Li clan in Suizhou.

Jia Yidao and Li Tingzhi really put a lot of thought into this army. Not only did the most reliable nephews and nephews be in charge, but the best training officers were also selected from the army to be responsible for training. The armament was also the best, with pikemen and sword and shield men equipped with foot armor, and archers also had armor to protect themselves.

"It would be good when it could be full of 10,000," Jia Rudao frowned, "The more people, the easier it is to find a way out......

Way out?

Li Tingzhi and Liao Yingzhong looked at each other, and they both showed wry expressions. What is the way out now? Gathering some people is just to die together for the Great Song Dynasty.

Although Jia Rudao repeatedly ordered and reclaimed, the news that Mingzhou was found to be transported back to gold and Chen Dexing was an immortal descended to earth was inevitably spread more and more widely in Lin'an City. This is extremely lethal for ordinary soldiers who can't read a few big characters.

Who knows if these big-headed soldiers will collapse when Chen Dexing's steel-armored soldiers converge under Lin'an City?

Come to think of it, only those who have read the books of sages can rely on it! But it's just to retreat to Quzhou or stick to Lin'an Palace. In the end, there is no escape from a murderer.

Anyway, Li Tingzhi and Liao Yingzhong are ready to be martyred, but Jia Yidao doesn't seem to be giving up, and is still trying his best to find a way out.

"There will be a way out!" Jia Rudao gritted his teeth and looked at the array of the gentleman's camp, "Chen Dexing doesn't have our way to live there, isn't there still the princesses of the Han Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom?" ”

"Princess?"

Li Tingzhi and Liao Yingzhong were stunned for a moment, and after a pause, they remembered that Liang Chongru had mentioned the possibility of letting Zhao Lin'er, the princess of Han and Zhou, inherit the king of Song when he came to Lin'an...... (To be continued......)
