Jinghui is a monk and a monk, but why is she willing to take the risk and offer to go to Yidu with Feng Timu to contact the descendants of Xu and Su Erzhou? Rao is Feng Timu has known him for a long time and has a deep relationship, and he is also puzzled: "The great monk is willing to accompany me to Yidu?" ”

"Not bad."

"This is extremely risky, and Xiao Deng's brutal reputation is heard in both the north and the south. If you are not careful, I am afraid that your life will not be saved,......。 ”

Jing Hui interrupted Timu's words, picked up the mallet again, lightly knocked on the wooden fish, and said with a smile: "Now in troubled times, mourning is everywhere. Although Yidu is dangerous, can it be compared to hell? Foyun: If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? In order for the common people in the world to be at peace as soon as possible, the monk walked with his head up, what is it? ”

Feng Timu was in awe and said, "The great monk is merciful, which makes me admire. ”

If you only listen to what Jing Hui said, it is indeed high-sounding. "If I don't go to hell, who will"? It is very compassionate for the common people in the world, and is willing to sacrifice himself to feed the tiger. But is that really the case? Not really. Jing Huiken took a big risk to go to Yidu, but there was actually another reason.

The Yuan Dynasty worshiped Buddhism, especially after the loss of power in the Quanzhen Sect, Buddhism was even more dominant.

Because of the support of the imperial court, the Quanzhen Sect lost in the debate of "Lao Tzu Hua Hu", which led to a series of evil consequences, resulting in "To the Yuan Dynasty, the Shi clan is arrogant; Change the palace view to a temple, and cut the Taoist priest into a mustache". "髡", shaved off the hair. "Cutting the Taoist priest for the mustache", the Taoist priest was forced to cut his hair and became a monk instead.

With the support of the imperial court and the forced support of the people, the larger temples often cover an area of 10,000 mu or even hundreds of thousands of mu. For example, during the time of Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Mengyuan dynasty, Phags-pa was the emperor's teacher, and he gave Kublai Khan three empowerments successively. At the first initiation, Kublai Khan offered 130,000 households; At the third empowerment, the Great White Conch Monastery and the three Tibetan districts were offered.

Even more than Taoism failed, Kublai Khan once made a rule that among the three religions, the statue of Sakyamuni was placed in the middle, and the statues of Lao Tzu and Confucius were placed on both sides. The Shi family has also overridden Confucianism.

The emperor was so respectful of Buddhism, let alone the court and local officials.

The so-called: "The emperor must first be ordained by the emperor and ascend the throne, and those who respect and believe in the court will do everything." Although the emperor and the queen concubines are worshiped because of the ordination. The official court meeting, hundreds of officials trained, and the emperor was also given a special seat to sit on one side." The great momentum of Buddhism can be seen from this.

Although the upper echelons of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty mostly believed in Tibetan secrets, local Buddhism also rose as a result. And originally, in the "Lao Tzu Hu" debate of that year, the Zen masters of Shaolin were the main force attacking the Quanzhen Sect. Therefore, many monks usually rely on the power of the imperial court to show off their power in the local area.

In particular, some monks who hide secrets are even more bold and reckless, throwing the Buddha's compassion out of the clouds, bullying men and women, and treating them as a common thing.

What's more serious, he even changed his body, from an angry-eyed King Kong and a low-eyed Bodhisattva to a captain who diggs gold and a general who moved mountains. During the time of the ancestor of the Mengyuan Dynasty, because of the secret support of the Mengyuan court, the monk Yang Lian Zhenjia of the Western Regions blatantly dug up tombs and stole treasures in the south of the Yangtze River, and even the emperor's cemetery of the former Song Dynasty, "Song Liuling", did not escape his clutches, not to mention ordinary mausoleums? I don't know how many people's ancestral graves have been hollowed out because of this.

The head of the former Song Dynasty was used as a wine container; Lin Kui, the former Song hermit of Mei's wife and crane, also suffered from the disaster of unreasonableness, "the lonely mountain forest and the tomb of the Jing priest, the corpses and bones are empty".

All kinds of things are really shocking; But whoever has a little ambition, who doesn't hear the indignation! Unbridled and lawless. If there is really a Buddha, I can't bear to close my eyes if I am afraid; If there is a demon, I am afraid that I am ashamed.

Not only that, but there are also many monks and temples that simply start business, and most of them are owned by monasteries. Moreover, although it is prohibited, there are still those who operate the coal mining industry privately.

With money, power, and desire, it is not surprising that marrying a wife and having children and the like are commonplace. "In the Central Plains of Hebei, the monks all have wives, openly live in the Buddha hall and two houses, go to the fast to call the teacher, and the illness is the first sheath in front of the Buddha, Xu wears a robe for three days, and is no different from ordinary people, especially without hair ears."

At the peak of Mengyuan Buddhism, there were more than a million true and false monks, although it is not excluded that there were indeed some real monks, but as far as most of the monks were concerned, how many still remembered compassion, and how many people still cared about it to purify sentient beings? In the world of flowers, just drink and meat through the intestines, and be happy.

This Jinghui monk is famous, although it is not so unbearable, but the temple where he is located still has a lot of "temple property".

Since the Red Turban Rebellion, wherever the rebels went, they have not only attacked local tyrants, but also looted temples. Originally, the treasures in his temple have been looted, and the "temple fields" have all been lost, thanks to the Chahan Timur to pacify the Jin and Hebei, march into Shandong, and vigorously "suppress the thieves", the place is a little peaceful, the lost treasure is of course not to be recovered, but the field is lost and recovered.

thought that he would finally be able to live a peaceful life from now on, but unexpectedly, Deng She started in Haidong, rolled south, and occupied Yidu in less than a year; Even more "heard", this "Great Song Yan King" seems to be more "greedy and cruel" than Wang Shicheng and Tian Feng, although the blow to the local wealthy is not particularly fierce, but the robbery of the temple's "temple property" is even better, and he does not show any affection.

How long has it been? I "heard" that seven or eight major temples have been "destroyed" in Shandong, and all the "temple properties" have been confiscated, and most of the monks in the temples have been forced to return to the world, and some have been confiscated into the army; Some were used as laborers, and Liaodong, Korea, and South Korea were filled in to supplement the Han population there. As for the other small and medium-sized temples that have been wiped out because of this, there are countless others.

In fact, five or six out of ten of his "rumors" and "heard" things are rumors. Yes, Deng She has taken some measures to "suppress Buddhism" in Shandong, including Haidong, but now that foreign affairs are not settled, how can he take the initiative to cause civil strife?

His measures are relatively mild.

When Zhao Zhong was appointed to "always mention the two teachings of Buddhism and Taoism", he once specifically instructed: "Over the past hundred years, there have been many people who believe in Buddhism. Although Shandong is a local area, there are many people who believe in Buddhism. When you manage Buddhism and Taoism, first of all, you must remember to be impartial; Second, in addition to the official documents and policies that must be implemented, we must not cause trouble without reason, let alone provoke without reason. In the mountain temple, there may be great virtues, and you must treat these famous monks with respect; If there are those who are willing to come to Yidu, they will be arranged. ”

It's just a pity that the three of them became tigers, and they had no choice but to make money. In any case, he did do things to "suppress the Buddha", such as stipulating the limit of "temple property", such as ordering fake monks who did not have a degree to cultivate in laymanship, etc., which were passed around and fell into Jing Hui's ears, and he achieved such notoriety.

This matter of "suppressing Buddhism" is, to put it mildly, related to the future and destiny of Buddhism; To put it mildly, it is also related to Jing Hui's own net worth. There are many emperors who destroyed Buddha in history. Monks don't do anything to produce, if there are too many, it is not good for the country, so every time the Buddha is destroyed, it can be said to be a good thing for the country; But for Buddhism, it is a bloody and painful memory.

Let's ask, how could Jing Hui not be vigilant about this? How can you not be afraid of this? Although he is a famous disciple, although he is extremely intelligent, he is not like his teacher, or like some other eminent monks, who can really do not ask about red dust and do not touch cause and effect.

Although the Bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows, Vajra also looked angry. If you can't be merciful and bow your eyebrows, why don't you just protect the Dharma and look at it angrily? Someone else's ambition is to be a bodhisattva in the world, but he would rather be a vajra in the world! Therefore, he offered to go to Yidu with Feng Timu to help Chakhan Timur plot against Xu and Su Erzhou.

With his active accompaniment, Feng Timu had nothing to say. At that moment, the two of them probably made up the rules of action after going to Yidu, slightly packed up some salutes, took two little novices, escorted by the two "bodyguards" sent by Chakhan Timur, and left the temple early the next morning and went straight to Yidu.

……

When they left the temple, it was still very early.

However, Mo Daojun traveled early, and there were even more early pedestrians. Five or six people are all riding horses, the speed is not slow, facing the refreshing morning breeze to walk for a short time, I see the road ahead of the dusty sky, flags like a forest, faintly heard the sound of drums and horns, disturbing pieces of birds, but it is a thousands of people of military horses are marching.

Jing Hui was a disciple of Chu Shi Fanqi.

The great monk Fanqi not only has the spirit of Buddhism, but also is good at poetry, good at calligraphy, as early as the Mengyuan Yingzong period, he was called into the Beijing to write the golden Tripitaka, and then presided over several large temples. In the past fifty years, "six dojos". In the seventh year of Zheng, he was given the title of "Buddha Day Wisdom Debate Zen Master" by Emperor Mengyuan, which can be said to be famous all over the world. Up and down the government and the opposition, there are many people who worship him, although he is a monk, he is a nobleman.

Naturally, Zen Master Fanqi is dedicated to the Buddha, brave and diligent, and does not care about worldly things and appetites, but Monk Jinghui has got a lot of cheapness because of this. In addition to studying Buddhism, he has a wide range of hobbies, on the one hand, he imitates Fanqi, and also learns poetry and calligraphy; On the other hand, due to the influence of Mengyuan customs, he also learned to ride horses and shoot arrows.

Therefore, although he is a monk, he can also be called both civil and military.

At this time, riding on a horse, looking at his riding skills, not only far surpassed Feng Timu, but even better than those two "bodyguards". ——The reason why he dared to take the initiative to go deep into the "tiger's den" and go to Yidu with Feng Timu is actually due to this reason. In any case, those who know martial arts are always bolder.

At this time, he saw the army in front of him, while holding the reins with one hand and galloping his horse, he stood with his legs side by side and put his hands on the pergola, and watched from afar. Feng Timu knew his methods for a long time, and he was not surprised; The two "bodyguards" next to him couldn't help but be amazed, and they all thought: "I can't see that this weak monk still has such a capability." ”

"The army that is marching in front of you is under Li Pingzhang's command?"

Feng Timu felt yes in his heart, didn't dare to talk nonsense, and turned his head to look at the "bodyguard". One of the two bodyguards replied, "The Zen master guessed well, it is my master's command." ”

Jing Hui praised: "The banner is like a forest, the spear is dazzling, and thousands of people march in an orderly manner. Ten miles away, I still feel murderous. is worthy of the name of the tiger, and it is really a battle-hardened soldier. Li Pingzhang's name is empty! ”

The two "bodyguards" had a smug face.

Feng Timu said: "What the great monk said is extremely true. ”

"Li Pingzhang should be going to Caozhou, looking at the momentum of his army like a rainbow, this will be victorious, the Yan thief has been tired for a long time, it is expected to be difficult to be an opponent, and it will be easy to recover Caozhou. It's just that we have another important task, and I'm afraid we won't be able to see Caozhou recover with our own eyes. ......, Lao Feng, with the monk's calculations, it is better for us to avoid Caozhou, economic Ning, go north in Yanzhou, pass through Tai'an, and go straight to Yidu. What do you think? ”

There are several ways to get to Ikdu from Daimyo Road. In addition to this one, as Jinghui said, you can also go north, pass through Dongping Road, pass Jinan, and enter Yidu; You can also go south, pass through Caozhou, go east along the main stream of the Yellow River, go to the vicinity of Linyi and then turn north, and you can also reach Yidu.

From a safety point of view, the safest way to go to Yidu is of course via Dongping Road. After all, most of Dongping Road is still under the control of the Yuan army. Secondly, it is also possible to go south and go east along the main stream of the Yellow River, which is equivalent to avoiding the main force of the Yan army stationed on Jining Road.

But the path Jinghui chose was the most dangerous path.

First of all, at present, there is the main force of the Yan army stationed on Jining Road, and the war that has just subsided must be very unsafe in the place. Maybe you will run into an unreasonable ruffian, or a defeated soldier scattered in the countryside, there are only five or six of them, and I am afraid that there will not even be enough teeth to stuff them. Secondly, Tai'an is the location of the Yan Army's front-line headquarters, and the inventory must be strict, although they have identity cover, but once they reveal flaws, they will definitely die.

Feng Timu was taken aback and said: "Jining is the new land of the red thieves, although the war has subsided, but I am afraid that the place is still very chaotic; Tai'an is the headquarters of the red thief coach, and the thieves are gathered, and the precautions must be strict. If you go this way, it will be too dangerous. In my opinion, it's better to go north and take Dongping Road. ”

Jing Hui smiled and said, "It is precisely because of the danger that the monk wants to go this way. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger. It is precisely because Jining is a new place for swallow thieves, and it is precisely because Tai'an is a place where thieves gather that they can just spy on the methods of swallow thieves! "The newly acquired land is just the right time to spy on Haidong's ability to govern the place; The gathering of schools is just the right time to spy on the reality of Haidong's high-rise.

Feng Timu repeatedly opposed, but after all, he still couldn't resist Jing Hui, and he had the intention to pull those two "bodyguards" as allies, but those two "bodyguards" were the elite under the command of Chakhan Timur, how could he show weakness in front of a monk? Instead, he immediately expressed his support for Jing Hui. In desperation, I had to follow what he said.

The group avoided the army of Chakhan Timur, bypassed Caozhou far away, and headed for Jining.

……

Because there were few people and the horses were fast, although they made a detour, it didn't take long for them to rush to the front of the Chahan army and horses, and they walked for another hour, and when they looked at it from afar, they were no longer in sight of the Yuan army.

The sun rises slowly, far away from the forest near the field, about because of the war in Jining and Caozhou, there are few pedestrians on the road, even if someone passes by, they are mostly ragged and skinny, there are local aborigines, there are also displaced people from afar, and from time to time I see starvation on the side of the road. After passing through several villages, they were all deserted and almost inhabited.

Jing Hui couldn't help sighing, and said with feeling: "The red thief is a fierce disaster, pity the people of the world, and suffer innocently. Daimyo, Caoju, the land of the hinterland, near Gyeonggi, is still so. I don't know more and more about Huaishang, Jiangnan, and the places where the demons are dancing wildly, and what the chaos has become! ”

All the way east, except for a little rest for half an hour at noon, it was non-stop. In the afternoon, they entered Jining, and further on, it was Juye. Gradually, the situation on the road changed.

Due to the war, all the states and counties on the Daming Road were closed during the day, but after entering Jining Road, they found that the gates of the states and counties along the way were open. Originally, Jining Road was the main war zone, and it should be more sparsely populated, but along the way, as it slowly went deeper into the interior of Jining, it was clear that the road was much more lively.

A group of people did not know where they came from, and at first there were fewer and more people, or walking alone, or in groups of three or five, in an endless stream.

"They're all homeless."

Feng Timu made a judgment from the clothes and belongings of these people, although he knew that in the war era, there must be many displaced people, and he had seen a lot of displaced people in Xuzhou, but he was still very surprised: "In the morning, when I was on the Daming Road, there were almost no people, and I only entered Jining, why did so many people suddenly appear?" Where did it all come from? ......, did they all escape from the war-torn states and counties? ”

Jing Hui stopped his mount, observed it carefully for a moment, shook his head and said, "There are locals, and more are foreigners. Yan thieves besieged Caozhou, and I am afraid that there were many fleeing people in Caozhou during this period. "I saw that these homeless people were all going to distant county seats.

"Weird! The swallow thief is so brutal, but why are the homeless people not afraid of being coerced into the army, but instead throw themselves into the net and take the initiative to go to the county seat? ”

Jing Hui didn't know why, but there happened to be a stream of homeless people rushing past them, and there were quite a few people, about seven or eight. He jumped off his horse, grabbed a man, and asked, "You are in a hurry, where are you going?" ”

In the group of displaced people, five or six of them rode horses, which had long attracted attention. Jing Hui is bald again, wearing monk's robes, and is obviously a monk. The person who was pulled was not flustered, and said: "So that the master can learn that the little prince issued a military order the day before yesterday, and ordered the prefectures and counties of Jining Road to open warehouses and release grain, and give porridge and rice. I even heard that Lord Yan Wang will soon pass on an order to distribute the ownerless land. This is where we are heading to the Giant Wilderness. ”

"Little Wangye" is talking about Deng Chengzhi; "Yan Wang", of course, is Deng She.

Jing Hui couldn't help but be frightened, let go of this person, retreated to Feng Timu's side, and said: "Yan thieves only got Jining, and the war in Caozhou has not ended, so they actually began to release grain and recruit displaced people!" Listening to this person's words, he has already won the hearts of the people,......。 Before he finished speaking, he remembered something, frowned, and said, "No! ”

"What's wrong?"

"The Yan thieves have been using troops for many days, and they have been fighting fiercely in Jining for more than a month, but how can there be so much surplus grain?"

Feng Timu came to his senses: "Yes, I heard that Yidu was short of food last year, and sent an envoy to Songjiang Mansion to borrow food from Taiwei Zhang. Although the summer harvest is over, it is estimated that self-sufficiency is still insufficient, where will the surplus grain come from for the people? ”

The people were puzzled, and asked a few more homeless people to verify, and they all spoke in unison, just like what the previous man had said. Again, where did it come from? Sure enough, Jinghui's guess was right, there were many Caozhou refugees; And not only from Caozhou, but also from Dongping to hear the news.

Jing Hui and Feng Timu discussed a few words and followed the homeless people. The county seat in front of him is gradually approaching, and there are still more than ten miles away from the city, and the soldiers of the Yan army gradually begin to appear.

At first, it was a detachment of ten, or foot soldiers, scattered among the homeless people, to maintain order; Or cavalry, go out in all directions, probe for intelligence. Followed by a formed team of 100 people, outposts were set up along the road, and there must be elite garrisons in every key place.

When he was about to arrive at the county seat, Jing Hui saw that there was a military camp in the north of the city, which was not small, at least one or two thousand military horses could be stationed. It was too far away to see the reality and the void clearly, and only the sound of the drill could be faintly heard in the wind. He squinted for a long time, but did not see a single soldier coming out of the camp.

Soon, they arrived at the gate of the city. I saw that many tables were set up outside the door, and behind them sat a person, some dressed in military clothes and some clothed clothes. Behind them, a row of neatly draped soldiers, about forty or fifty men, stood behind them, all with spears in hand. And in the doorway on the side, there were also dozens of soldiers standing guard.

At this point, the displaced people have gathered into a large crowd, and at a cursory glance, hundreds and thousands, under the constraints of the special person, are lined up in several long lines, corresponding to those tables. Needless to say, this is identity checking.

Jing Hui whispered to Feng Timu: "A thief is a thief!" Although they are a little clever and know how to use grain to attract the people, what role can such an identity check play? Inevitably, there will be mud and sand. In addition, it is easy to be mixed with fine work. I'm afraid that the more people are called, the more trouble will be in the future! ......, however, it is a good thing for my royal master and can be put to good use. ”

There are monks, novices, Confucian scholars, and strong men, all of them are full of energy, although their clothes are not luxurious, but they are worlds different from the homeless people, and everyone has horses, which has long attracted the attention of the Yan army. - In fact, since the Yan army began to appear on the road, they have been interrogated several times.

Jing Hui threw the reins to a small novice, took out the degree in a hurry, and handed it over. It is a document that certifies the monks and nuns, and it contains the person's place of origin, common name, age, temple affiliation, name of the ordination master, and the official office to which he belongs.

——, when it comes to shaving masters, there are five types of monastic masters, shaving masters, taking refuge and relying on them. The shaver is only responsible for shaving, usually regardless of the precepts, let alone education; A refuge master is more of an introducer, a witness, introducing and witnessing their refuge in the Three Jewels. And after taking refuge in the Three Jewels, in order to learn the precepts and the Dharma, you have to choose another "relying teacher". "Relying on the teacher" refers to "relying on the law". That is, the teacher, preaching and teaching to solve doubts.

These types of masters are not necessarily the same person, so the shaving master on Jing Hui Du is not the great monk of Fanqi.

Baihu was literate, looked through it carefully for a while, asked Jing Hui, and said, "Where did the monk come from?" ”

"Daimyo Road."

"What are you doing in Jining?"

"I heard that King Yan is benevolent, and I want to go to Yidu to open a dojo."

"Oh? Want to go to Yidu to open a dojo? The hundred households looked at Jing Hui up and down, looked at Feng Timu and the others, and asked, "Who are they?" ”

"This one is a friend of the poor monk, and the other two are his family members; As for these two little bald heads, they are the two watchmen of the poor monks. ”

Baihu nodded, asked Feng Timu again, and said, "The monk is going to Yidu to open a dojo, what about you?" Is it also going to Yidu? ”

"Yes."

"What are you doing in Yidu?"

"Looking for friends."

"Who is your friend?"

"In the next Xuzhou people, the guest is a big name, and he is good friends with Lord Lu. A few days ago, I heard that he went to Yidu, so I went to visit. It's very polite, but Baihu heard the meaning, what "visit"? Isn't it just "taking refuge"?

The news that Lu Ju surrendered and was awarded a high-ranking official has been spread all over Haidong through the official document of the appointment, and these hundred households have also heard about it. He is a Liao man, he joined the army very early, although he may not be able to afford such a general, but he still has to give face, and after a few more interrogations, he saw that there were no flaws, waved his hand, and let him go.

Feng Timu pinched the sweat in his hand, his heart was pounding, and when he saw him let him go, he couldn't wait to leave immediately; However, Jing Hui was not in a hurry. What a big monk, really bold, clasped his hands together, smiled and said: "On the way here, I heard from the people that the little prince couldn't bear to see the local suffering, so he specially allocated a batch of military rations to help the people. Is this true? If it's true, it's a great merit. ”

The hundred households were about to leave, but when they heard this, they suddenly became alert, stopped, turned around, looked at Jing Hui carefully for a moment, and said, "Where did the monk hear from him?" ”

"It's on the road just now."

"This batch of soup soup is transferred from Yidu, not our military food. The people are ignorant and do not speak right. After a pause, the hundred households added, "I have a bumper harvest this summer, and a little relief is nothing." However, the 'great merit' is Yunyun, monk, you are right. This is not close to Yidu, you can help our little prince to promote on the road. ”

"Yes, yes. When a monk goes to Yidu to open a dojo, he talks about how to make merits. Naturally, this matter must be mentioned. ”

Baihu glanced at Feng Timu and the others a few times, stopped talking, brought his own soldiers, and turned to leave.

Seeing them go away, Feng Timu complained about Jing Hui and said, "The monk is really bold! It's so easy to let us go, what are you talking to him about! Look at his fierce and vicious appearance, he doesn't agree with a word, I'm afraid that you and I will be dead on the spot. ”

Jing Hui didn't defend either, but said, "Let's go, let's go." After walking a few steps, he suddenly sighed.

"What is the monk sighing for?"

"When I asked those hundred households just now, I was actually tempting. I really didn't expect that a small hundred households were not only literate, but also had such a high level of vigilance. ”

……

In order to save time, Jing Hui and the others did not enter the county seat, bypassing the south of the city,—— there was a military camp in the north, and it was forbidden to pass, but they could not go.

After the county seat, everyone got on the horse again. After walking in a hurry for more than half a day, Feng Timu and the two little novices couldn't hold on, and their legs were grinding to the point of pain, so they had to slow down their horses for the time being and walk slowly. Away from the city, the Yan soldiers on the road gradually decreased, and finally disappeared; There are also fewer and fewer displaced people.

After walking for about ten miles, I suddenly saw dust and smoke in front of me.

Jing Hui and Feng Timu glanced at each other, and thought, "Isn't it the Yan thief's brigade?" I just don't know if I went to the county seat of Fangcai, or to other places. "Because it is too far away, I can't see clearly; The crowd urged the horses forward, and when they got closer, they found that the people and horses seemed to be heading east.

Feng Timu said: "Maybe it came out of the county just now, looking at this smoke and dust, I'm afraid that there are no more than one or two thousand people." Could it be that there was another war ahead, so they rushed to reinforce it? ”

Jing Hui had good eyes, hung far behind, looked at it for a while, looked at it with a surprised face, and said, "Strange! ”

"What's weird?"

The two "bodyguards" also saw it, and one of them said: "The smoke and dust are scattered, not like a march, but like a group of people." ”

"The people are in a group?"

"......, it's a homeless!"

"Huh? Refugee? Didn't all the homeless people go to the county town just now? Where did so many people come from? And restrained to look like a march! ”

Jing Hui is worthy of being a famous teacher and apprentice, her brain is turning fast, blurted out, and said: "What a swallow thief!" Really cunning. ”

"How?"

"As I expected, this group of displaced people must have come out of the county just now!"

"What do you mean?"

By this time they had come closer, and could see through the smoke and dust the general idea of the marching procession. Looking from afar, I saw that both sides of the team and the end were people who looked like soldiers, and the main force in the middle was not the homeless?

Looking at the situation in front of him, it was clear that after the county town recruited enough people just now, it organized it and sent it to the rear. ......, hehe, I said how to check so loosely! No wonder the Yan thieves are not afraid to mix in, but they have no intention of leaving the homeless people in the city at all! ”

"Don't stay in the city? Sent to the rear? ......, why is that? ”

"Shandong is suffering from war, Ding Zhuang is definitely insufficient, there can be a chance to replenish the population, how can Deng Thief let it go? With so many young and strong laborers, he was certainly not willing to leave it on the front line. Therefore, we used the theory of soup soup and field division to attract the displaced people from neighboring states and counties, and then send them to the rear together. ......, yes, not only is there a lack of labor in Shandong, but the bitter cold land of Liaodong has experienced many wars in the past few years, and I am afraid that the population is even more scarce. There is also Goryeo, although he has the whole territory, but after all, the Han people are scarce. These are in urgent need of replenishment of the population! ”

Speaking of this, Jing Hui contacted Fang Cai's thoughts, sneered again, and said: "I'll just say how can Yidu have so much food, how can it be so generous?" It's really calculating, it's really calculating! ”

"What's so calculating?"

"Depending on the situation, all the displaced people he summoned will stay in the county town for one day at most. It's up to the sky, and it's only two gruels a day, how much food can you use? With only two bowls of gruel, you can deceive so many young people! Isn't that a good calculation? ”

"But, as you said, even if the Yan thief really wants to send these homeless people to Shandong, won't they need food resettlement after they are delivered?"

"Even if Shandong is short of food and squeezed, it will still be able to feed these people! Not to mention, some of them can also be diverted and sent to Liaodong and Goryeo. ......, the monk had seen a few monks from Goryeo, and heard that the land of South Goryeo was fertile, and he said that 100,000 people were enough to settle them. ”

Feng Timu gasped and said, "If it is really as the monk guessed, this Deng thief is really not to be underestimated!" It's scheming. No wonder Li Pingzhang said that he was as cunning as a fox and as ruthless as a wolf. ”

As he spoke, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind.

Everyone stopped talking, looked back, and saw a small group of Yan cavalry, about one or twenty people.

Feng Timu said: "I think I came to chase the homeless, maybe there is some military document in the city?" Look, they're coming fast, so let's give them a go. "They stopped and got out of the way.

In a short time, this small group of cavalry was in front of them.

Feng Timu rubbed his eyes and said strangely: "Look at the leader who led the team, it seems to be a little familiar." ......, ouch, it's the hundred thieves who checked us just now! I don't know what I thought, his face changed greatly, he cried out in his heart, and said secretly: "That's it, that's it, but what happened?" This time it's over! ”

Sure enough, this cavalry came at them, but the intention was that Feng Timu guessed wrong.

"The general of my family admires the master's compassion very much, and I heard that Xiucai is a friend of Lord Lu, and he is worried that you will lose on the road, so he sent me here to escort you to Yidu."

Jing Hui and Feng Timu looked at each other.
