Han Xingxuan bid farewell to Li Gang's protégé and returned to the inner hall to report to Han Xiaoxuan. Since Li Gang only sent his protégés, Han Xiaoxuan relied on his identity, and only let Han Xingxuan, the cousin of the Shu Branch, go to receive him.

"How?"

"Sent away." Han Xingxuan said with a big grin, "Li Boji is so angry, his mouth is 10,000 stones. Why did my Han family give him the rent that he collected based on his ability. ”

At the same time, Tong Mu was also sending King Kang Zhao Gou away: "Your Majesty calls on hundreds of officials of the clan to donate, and the king is willing to set an example and take the lead in responding, worthy of being the head of the clan." ”

Zhao Gou said: "It's a pity that I didn't come to the south and didn't buy many fields and houses, so I could only pay a few thousand stones of grain." His Majesty seems to be dissatisfied, and hopes that the lieutenant officials will mediate more. ”

The two of them talked and came to the front of the house, and Zhao Gou's entourage stepped forward with a box, and Zhao Gou said: "At this time, Fujian Road sent a silver bird made of silver, a small plaything, and the nobles smiled at it." ”

Tong Mu didn't shirk either, took the box with both hands, said goodbye to Zhao Gou, and walked towards the mansion while secretly sneering: "Kang Wanggui is the emperor's uncle, since he has been driving south tour, he has bought land on Jiangnan East Road and Liangzhejiang Road, and has landed a lot of industry, but he has only produced a thousand stones of grain. What's even more infuriating is that he actually took a few silverware and wanted to buy me Tong Mu. That's it, that's it, I'm afraid that this big Song Jiangshan is not his Zhao family. ”

Zhao Chen was interested, and wanted to let the hundred officials of the clan donate food, but the interest of the young people came and went quickly, and Zhao Chen handed over the matter of requisitioning grain to Prime Minister Li Gang, "Li Xianggong, He Xianggong, donate grain to the army, and it is righteous." The two ministers can raise food by any means, and I have no objection. Leaving this sentence, Emperor Shi Shiran's royal driver went to conquer in person.

Li Gang was anxious about the military rations on the front line, and He Li was because of the emperor's entrustment, and the two prime ministers jointly promoted the collection of grain from the hundred officials of the clan, but encountered the obstruction and resistance of Sun Fu and Wang Boyan.

King Kang Zhao Mingli took the lead in donating, but secretly connected with hundreds of officials and poured bitter water on each other.

"We abandoned our ancestral business, followed Your Majesty to the south, our livelihood was poor, and we had to donate 10,000 stone of grain, Your Majesty is by no means so unsympathetic, this is all the evil government made by Li Boji."

"Yes, I should impeach him." In the imperial history, Cheng Li replied, "But this is a long way to Bianliang, and it is not urgent." ”

"Zhongcheng, in this Yangzhou city, there is also a queen mother and a princess."

"What you said, but Empress Dowager Zheng and Concubine Yang?" Empress Dowager Zheng is the empress of Zhao Ji, who was in power with Zhu Fenglian in the second year of Jingkang, and the backup Zhu Fenglian is in the air, and Empress Yang is the biological mother of King Kang Zhao Gou.

"Empress Dowager Zhu is far away in Bianliang, when she asks another Empress Dowager to supervise the country in Yangzhou, Your Majesty has already set out again, please lead a hundred officials, please Empress Dowager Zheng, Empress Dowager Yang side by side."

In King Kang's Zhao Gou's mansion, Wang Boyan half-bowed his body and suggested to Zhao Gou.

Zhao Gou was furious and threw the folding fan in his hand to the ground: "The public wants to trap this king in disloyalty and injustice? ”

"Li Boji, He Li, the two of them, exploited the hundreds of officials of the clan, and they did not have the system of a prime minister. If you don't stop it, I'm afraid that everyone will be ruined, and now I can only ask the Empress Dowager to come out and stop them from coming. ”

Zhao Gou waved his hand: "Li Xiang and He Xianggong are loyal to the country." Wang Zuocheng, what are you talking about? Please go back. ”

"King, Li He and the others are going to make trouble if they persecute hundreds of officials and rich families like this."

"Hugh has to say in vain, the sage is quite courtly, and it is a blessing for the people of my Great Song Dynasty."

"Xiao Chen is just worried."

"Hehe," Zhao Gou laughed a few times, "Zuo Cheng is also attentive to state affairs, if there is really something wrong, then think of a way, for now, you still need to let Li Xianggong do it." ”

Wang Boyan will understand. He immediately agreed to extort donations from the wealthy officials of the clan, and at the same time bought grain from grain stores and merchants.

Although Wang Boyan is also the prefect of Yangzhou, he does not send a single official to force donations, and asks Li Gang to send military men to do it. For a while, the discussion was boiling.

Zhao Chen was completely unaware of the things that were happening in Yangzhou behind him, and he had already joined Wang Yu in Tianchang. The Song army and the Jin soldiers fought on a long front from the canal in the east to the Dabie Mountains in the west.

It's already the beginning of February, spring has returned to the earth, and everything is recovering. Wu Song looked at the buds on the wicker outside in the standing cage, and the irritability in his heart was slightly relieved. I didn't expect the house leak to coincide with the rainy day, and that day the Fold Army and the local Hujia Army did it, so that Suo Lu gave a sneak attack, and I don't know if I can pass the hurdle this time.

In the evening of the same day, Wu Song's department had dinner, sat on the ground and lay down, everyone was tired and tired, and was about to fall asleep, when suddenly a group of soldiers came, smashed everywhere, saw the rice bucket and was about to snatch it, found that the rice bucket was empty, and the rice had been eaten, so the rice bucket was smashed.

Wu Song asked, "What's the matter?" My own brother, I have something to say. ”

"Who is with your own brothers, you enjoy good wine and good food, and our Fuzhou people only have moldy rice to eat."

Wu Song was obedient and shouted, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, calmed the scene, and then grabbed the leader and asked in detail.

It turned out that this group of Orijia troops was really defending the mountain pass in the northeast, and today the big camp sent dinner, but half of it was moldy. The temporary head of this group of people is Zou Yuan, who was born as a teacher and commander of the Wei Army. Zou Yuan was rough and said: "You can't eat moldy rice." ”

The Zhejia army came to aid Yanzhou, but it was disrupted and ruled by outsiders, and there was already a sense of resentment, and now it was obviously discriminated against by the locals.

Wu Song said: "I Wu Erlang likes to take care of unfair things the most, but the military law is strict, how can you wait for Hu to come, follow me to see Shangguan." ”

At this moment, no one noticed when Suo Lu called. Only a few screams from the sentries were heard, followed by a dense sound of horses' hooves. Everyone here was shocked.

Wu Songxin said that he wanted bad vegetables, and then looked at the camp of the common people not far behind, and the people who didn't go to the mountains were still asleep there. Wu Song's eyes swept and saw that Shi En, who was standing not far away, was still there in a daze, so he went up and pulled: "Look and take the brothers up to resist." ”

He also called the leader of the Fold Army, who had just been screwed by himself, to help the people escape.

The leader shouted: "E, it's Xing Jiao of Fuzhou, a good man, what do you call it." Leave your name for advice in the future. ”

"Wu Song."

Xing Jiao went to cover the people and fled, Wu Song commanded all the soldiers present to use the terrain to set up an ambush on the spot, and hundreds of bows and crossbows had been opened, ready to greet Xiao Suolu.

Busy chattering, in the blink of an eye, Shi En has returned. The Jin soldiers roared and rushed towards the mountain pass, and Wu Song waved his hand, and nearly three hundred arrows were shot at the Jin soldiers.

Suo Lu was stunned, and he did not expect that the Song army would be able to organize an effective resistance. Because of the rush in a hurry, the Jin soldiers were all lightly armed, and the Iron Float and the shield bearers were also behind, so they could only watch the arrows before their eyes, and there was no rut at all.

Jin Bing Pu Liyan was also anxious to have a white face, and the front was to the mountain pass, and the figure of the common people carrying their belongings was the fat meat to their mouths, and they couldn't rob it, so they gave a death order, and they must take the mountain pass down.

The golden soldiers rushed upwards regardless of casualties, and when they approached, Suo Lu shouted and screamed, carrying a mace and pounced on the position like a vicious dog that had been beaten and hurt. At this time, the Song army, lacking soldiers and major generals, had greatly reduced its combat effectiveness, and there was no fortification that could be used at all in the mountain pass.

The Song army was red-eyed, and a counter-charge knocked Suo Yusheng back.

What a tragic picture, but in the thirty-zhang square mountain pass, every few steps a brother fell, and the other brothers went to take care of it, and he was killed by the Jin soldiers, and fell beside his brother.

The wounded and the uninjured are all fighting with Jin Bing, and they still risk death to go back to their brothers. Those who can be saved must be carried down; If it can't be saved, even if it's a corpse, it's your own brother, who sacrificed his life and had to carry his brother back.

When he was stalemate, suddenly in the rear of the Song army, the horse's hooves suddenly sounded. Xing Jiao, the Fuzhou officer who went to save the people just now, rode on a horse, did not wear armor, only took a horse lance, followed by a dozen cavalrymen, and rushed over.

The total strength of the Jin soldiers is only more than 500 people, and after fighting with the Song army for so long, the formation has long been scattered, and the impact of the cavalry is huge, and this force of Jin soldiers is scattered.

Xing Jiao came back from his horse and shouted at Wu Song: "Brother, my martial arts are no worse than yours, but I am only good at horse fighting." ”

Wu Song smiled bitterly.

After everything has settled down, there will of course be punished for this riot in the Folding Army. However, in order to appease the military morale of the Hujia army and the Zhejia army, there was no excessive punishment. It's just that a few leaders on both sides should be severely punished.

Wu Song, as the "first to make trouble" on the side of the Hujia Army, could not escape the disaster of the pond fish and was punished for standing in the cage for one day.

Wu Song stood straight in the station cage, on the edge of the station, the soldiers and the people all looked around, seeing Wu Song like an iron tower, his eyes were wide with anger, motionless, and the people discussed: "Isn't this an Arhat descending to earth?" ”

"Zhe Xuan, call for observation," Hu Yangeng said slowly, "This time the Zhejia army made a good incident, but in fact, it was all heart-sick. As a guest army, they are like trees without roots, and we need to find a way to reassure them. ”

"What should we do to appease you?"

"When reorganized."

"Regrouping?"

"Exactly, don't divide the family army into a family army, but reorganize it into an army, so that you can be like an arm."

Zheyan's face was distorted for a while, and he finally couldn't help it: "I'm afraid that the reorganization is famous, and the annexation is real." ”

"Deputy Xuan He said this. Whether it is the Hujia army or the Zhejia army, it is the imperial army after all. ”

"What's more, after the reorganization, it should be headed by Deputy Xuan."

"If the children of the folded family are officers in the army, they will be immediately promoted by one level."

"Hu appeased, the promotion of officials has their own court to decide, you have overstepped the system."

"I have established a domain in Hebei, and I have the right to appoint below the seventh grade, and if I am above the seventh grade, please also report to the deputy to Bianliang."
