Although there is a dilemma, life still has to be passed, and the tax of the imperial court has quadrupled in the end. What made Hou Meng breathe a sigh of relief was that the common people in Gyeonggi Province did not oppose, but were still silent and doing cattle and horses.

Liang Shicheng was proud, and a group of sycophants wrote poems and lyrics to praise Liang's father-in-law for his foresight. Just when he was rejoicing, suddenly the military intelligence came - no one was happy at this time.

A few days ago, Shuibo swore to lead 100,000 elite soldiers and 1,000 generals to take the Guangji River waterway to attack Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo!

The monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were jumping again. Only then did they find that it was not useful to fill the troops in the north to defend the pass, and if Ximenqing took the Guangji River waterway to fight, and passed through the four counties of Dingtao, Jiyin, Wanting, and Dongming along the way, the fleet could go straight to the city of Fengfu.

So the Privy Council issued an urgent document and quickly dispatched several sailors on the Yangtze River to Qinwang. In addition to Liu Menglong's naval army, which had already lost its establishment, the Song Dynasty still had several other sailors of mixed quality.

What relieved the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty was that Ximen Qing was really born as a Caokou bandit, who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and shouted fiercely verbally, but he did not know the truth of the speed of the soldiers--after this man swore an oath, the Liangshan fleet climbed slower than the turtles, and after more than a month, he was still grinding in the Liangshan Bo, and the soldiers did not move.

This gave the Song Dynasty's sailors time to react quickly, and a few sailors worked desperately to finally meet in the Bianhe River, and the masts on the water outside Bianliang City were like forests, and the Song Dynasty's monarchs and ministers finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw it - with such a sailor to protect it, Ximen Qingzhen was not afraid to call.

Who knew that this breath was relieved a little earlier. The sailors had just been assembled, and the bad news came -- a large group of ships suddenly came out of the mouth of the Yangtze River, under the banner of Liangshan, and advanced straight inland along the Yangtze River, and now all the sailors on the Yangtze River have been transferred to the Beijing Division, and the Liangshan fleet is therefore unimpeded, and the momentum is like a bamboo, and the entire territory of the Yangtze River falls into the hands of thieves, and Tan Zhi, who is in the south of the Yangtze River, has become a lone army.

This fleet was originally an escort fleet for ocean trade in Liangshan, but at this time, it was turned into a whole, and under the leadership of Ruan Xiaoer, the commander of Liangshan Water Division, it swept through Huaiyang, which was overwhelming.

At the same time, Ximen Qing sent his generals to launch an offensive from north to south. In the middle of the day, it swept through the four prefectures of Bo, Su, Si and Chu, echoing with the Liangshan water army from east to west, and Huainan East Road was planted all over Liangshan for the banner of Tianxingdao.

The monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were knocked unconscious by this slap, and by the time they reacted, the Hu family general had already stationed troops in Luyi, Bozhou, and was eyeing Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo.

No matter how sluggish the guy is, he will find that the situation is very bad - if Gyeonggi Province is compared to a person, now this person's head is being grabbed by the big sword of Huazhou Guan Sheng; The feet are bound by the Hujia of Luyi; And on the Guangji River, where Caoyun is developed, Liangshan Ximenqing may swing a knife to stop the waist at any time!

At this moment, no one in the Manchu Dynasty could be proud. The current situation is obvious, Gyeonggi Province is like a pending death row inmate, and Yangshan Ximenqing can be stabbed whenever he wants.

But obviously Ximenqing has no interest in going under the knife immediately, he has been grinding time slowly, what is he waiting for? The monarchs of the Song Dynasty soon understood.

If the money is not enough to spend, you can double the tax, you can cast iron money, you can get some Chase Treasure that is 50 or 100 Wen to fool the people, and you can issue paper money indiscriminately...... But now, with the increasing number of people and horses of the King of Qincheng in Kaifeng Prefecture, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty are desperate to find that there is not enough food to eat!

In the past, there was no shortage of grain in Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo, and relying on the convenient water transportation, new rice, fruits, vegetables, and meat were fresh and fresh, and the people of the city could not eat and drink, and the surplus grain was thrown on the dung heap and the fertile fields were soaked -- but all this can only be paid attention to in the peaceful season.

Now Fang La is reversed, and the largest granary in Jiangnan can no longer be counted on. Fortunately, Chengdu Fu Road is known as the country of abundance, and Jinghu South Road also has a wide range of lakes, and the world is full of words, but the problem is that no matter how much food there is, it is only right that it can be transported, otherwise it is to look at plums to quench thirst and draw cakes to satisfy hunger.

Transporting grain from Chengdu Road to Tokyo? Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky, along the way people chew horses to feed, plus the loss of transportation, the corruption of officials, a million stone of grain transported over will become a hundred stones, that top of the hair?

Transporting grain from Jinghu South Road to the north? Now that Liangshan is all based on the Yangtze River, if the grain ship wants to pass, it must first ask Ximenqing if he agrees!

Ximen Qing remotely controls the situation, besieges but does not attack, is waiting for the day when the food in Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo is exhausted! Now there are more than 200,000 people and horses on land and water under the city of Kaifeng, and when the soldiers have no food and are in chaos, Liangshan will come to fish in troubled waters again, which is the right reason to use soldiers.

Although he knew what Ximen Qing's idea was, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty found that they couldn't crack it, and Zuihou still had an idea from the national teacher Lin Lingsu - please ask Huizong to pray sincerely, the Emperor of Heaven will inevitably send heavenly soldiers and generals to send Lu rice to the granary of the Great Song Dynasty - at that time, the soldiers will have enough food, and Ximen Qing and Fang La will be broken!

Huizong listened to the great joy, and it was grandly organized, and every day after bathing and changing clothes, he went to the altar or danced the great god, or prayed in meditation, and the sound of Taoist priests chanting was heard in the nine heavens - Rao was like this, and he did not see a sharp point of rice in the granary.

There is a subordinate who can't see it, and he advises. Huizong didn't say that Lin Lingsu was cheating, and first blamed himself for being unreligious, so he issued an edict and continued to pray.

The official family wants to toss, and no one can stop him, because no one can starve him if he is hungry, he has the strength to toss, and the soldiers and horses stationed in the four corners of Tokyo City do not have such treatment. These armies came to the rescue, but the mixture was worse day by day, and the rice was mixed with less sand at the beginning, but now there is more rice mixed with the sand, and gradually more and more are also limited - the soldiers are also people! Loyal ministers and patriots cannot be eaten, and the soldiers complained.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Privy Council sought out Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng and other resourceful important ministers of the court for advice, and secretly issued an edict - ordering the army to raise food on the spot.

The people on the Gyeonggi Road are unlucky, I thought that this is the foot of the Son of Heaven, the cow, the ghost, the snake and the god should be all easy, who knows that the soldiers who were ordered to raise food on the spot are like wolves and tigers, no matter who you are, the split is a sentence "hand over all your gold, silver, treasures, grain and cloth", don't give? I'll rob!

After countless blood and tears, the people who were tossed to the point of dying finally understood - it turned out that the biggest cow ghost and snake god was this court!

Public grievances are boiling and are about to erupt.

The important ministers of the court who drank to quench their thirst discussed, how to clean up these thieves? Send troops to fight? Can't! The lessons of the previous car are not far away, and those sent to fight Liangshan are all meat buns and dogs, and there is no return to them. Since you can't beat it, let's recruit An!

In fact, the messengers of Zhao'an Ximenqing and Fang La, since the beginning, have been looking at each other on the road, and the price code is getting higher and higher. At the beginning, he promised to control the soldiers and horses, and then he was appointed as an envoy, and then the honorary title of the male marquis rose all the way - Ximen Qing and Fang La were all immovable.

This time, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty invested a lot of money. Zhao'an's thieves have always been martial arts, and civil officials can never think of it, but this time he made an exception for Ximenqing, named him a scholar of Longtuge University, gave him a goldfish bag, and opened a mansion to build a tooth with the three divisions or something, which can be described as a groundbreaking honor.

Cai Jing and the others wept and sighed: "As soon as this case is opened, the court will lose its honor to the extreme, and it will be laughed at by the captives!" In their opinion, sealing Ximenqing as a grass official is already a great sacrifice and concession, and Ximenqing should be sincerely grateful - but the disgraced messenger returned, saying that Ximenqing politely rejected the Longtuge scholar: "Seal the edict and return, I will take it myself!" ”

The monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty looked at each other and shuddered. That's right! In a few more days, Ximen Qing will march on the third road, and the Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo will be at your fingertips, is it still rare to have a small Longtuge scholar?

The soft ones can't work, so I have to come to the hard ones. Everyone's expectant eyes fell on the Taishi Cai Jing - Liang Zhongshu, Cai Jing's son-in-law, Qingzhou City once broke Liangshan - on weekdays, everyone expressed limited belief and infinite doubts about Liang Zhongshu's achievements, but today, they would rather believe and must believe.

Huizong said: "Cai Aiqing, who can solve the crisis now?" Also fight against Hebei Liang Zhongshu - if Liang Aiqing leads the troops to arrive, the west gate of Liangshan will be broken! At that time, the merit of survival and extinction will not let Guo Ziyi in the Tang Dynasty be in the front! ”

Cai Jing originally hoped that his son-in-law would make less contributions, and in the future, if Huizong ate the elixir and died, the crown prince would not be able to achieve high merit after he ascended the throne.

So the gold medal jade and the holy decree of the family letter flew to the famous mansion of Hebei, and summoned Liang Zhongshu to send the soldiers to relieve the siege.

The military intelligence reported to Liangshan, Huang Wenbing was taken aback when he heard it, and hurriedly came to see Ximenqing: "After Liang Zhongshu captured Gongzi three times, although he secretly communicated with our Liangshan, his heart may not be satisfied. At this time, our army is going south with all its might, and if they send troops to attack me, they will divide our army, what should we do at that time? ”

Ximen Qing smiled: "Why is it too late for Wen Bing to come? I have long been concerned about this, after hearing the letter, people have been made to act according to the calculation of the way, after ten days, Liang Zhongshu will inevitably return to his heart, personally come to my Yuanmen to surrender! ”

Huang Wenbing listened and breathed a sigh of relief. Before he came, he racked his brains and prepared two emergency plans for Ximen Qing's retribution, but now it seems that he can't use them all, although he has done useless work, it is a great thing.

When the worries are gone, curiosity arises. Huang Wenbing asked, "But I don't know what kind of trick Gongzi has played?" Can you succumb to the soldiers of the book without a fight? ”

Ximen Qing daxiao said: "Where can I say what is the clever plan? It's just two women, so-and-so, so-and-so! "This is exactly what it is:

The faint king vainly worships Guo Zi, and Ximen follows Kong Ming's heart. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
