Early March, Tokyo, Bianliang City!

The plan of the day lies in the morning, and the plan of the year lies in the spring, and this is not a joke!

When the warm spring came, the people outside the city were jubilant and busy farming. The people in the city are similar, taking off their heavy winter clothes, walking around the streets to show their strengths and feet, greeting people, and it is very lively.

Guangping Street outside the sour jujube gate, a tavern called "Wang Laoqi", is one of Chaojiazhuang's eyeliners in the capital. Engaged in collecting intelligence and summarizing it to Zhu Fu, useful or urgent news will be sent back in time.

It's a small two-story building. The scale is not large, but because of the good drinks, and the business is very hot in the downtown area, as long as the door is open, the wine customers are endless.

No, at noon, when the meal is served, not to mention the inside of the restaurant, the shed outside is hard to find! Guests gathered, crowded. The bartender, the guy carried the tray everywhere, shouting and shouting.

There was a loud "bang", which attracted the sideways attention of the surrounding drinkers.

It was a few small traders from other places, and one of them was a big man with a horse face who glared at his companion and roared angrily: "Earn money and go home?" Which home to go back to? Do we still have a home? Finally escaped from Wasion and went back to find death? ”

The one who was yelled at was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old offspring, his face was childish, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of the big man, and he looked at the big man a little timidly: "Brother, Tian Hu is fighting and robbing the house, killing people and killing people, and the government doesn't care?" ”

"Tube? How? The horse-faced man sneered. Resentment flashed on his face: "Those corrupt officials know how to make money, and they have suffered heavy losses in several encirclements and suppressions." Later, he didn't dare to suppress the bandits anymore, and watched Tian Hu become bigger. ”

Gonzo and all sorts of gossip news, that's what people are most interested in. The surrounding drinkers listened to the brothers' conversation and shut up one after another, which affected the surroundings like a gust of wind, and the noise became quieter and quieter. The brothers' conversations are also becoming clearer, and people have different expressions.

"Bigger? Tian Hu's gang of strongmen has increased instead of decreasing? The younger brother looked puzzled.

The elder brother glanced at the people around him, gritted his teeth and said: "Hmph, you didn't listen to Li Gouzi, in just a few months, Tian Hu entangled two or three thousand people, broke Qinyuan County, and the county governor fled, plundering the treasury money and grain. ”

"What? Is there such a thing? How did I not know? ”

"Huh, I don't know? What's the use of your ears? ”

The elder brother was obviously a violent temper, glaring and scolding again, but several companions next to him hurriedly dissuaded: "Okay, Brother Tiger, dissipate your anger." ”

"Hey, this is your own brother. If you have something to say, it's good to say. ”

"Xiao Biao, I usually don't play much, it happened two months ago."

"The county seat was broken, and it seems that the news has not spread."

"Brother, when will we get revenge?"

"Revenge? In this chaotic world, it's good to be alive. ”

……

The caravan from other places drank wine, complained, whined, and scolded. But he considered doing more in Bianliang City, and he didn't go too far. A few people hastily ate the wine and food, dropped the wine money, took the hat and left in a hurry.

Although these people are gone? But the words that come out can't be taken away. There are a lot of drinkers and pedestrians in the shed, after learning the news, I saw a few men disappear at the corner of the street, and acquaintances exchanged ears, not knowing where Weishengzhou was, and who Tian Hu was and took the initiative to inquire.

It's as if the whole street is talking about it! There were also government officials in the crowd, and some people felt the need to report and hurriedly returned.

This scene also happened in several other places in Bianliang City, either in a teahouse or at a street food stall, but different people said the same thing. The expressions of the people around him were similar, and they were talking in groups.

Chao Gai came from a later generation and was still a soldier, and he knew the importance of intelligence. Last year, during the Chinese New Year, I personally came to Bianliang City to invest manpower and material resources. It has been more than three months now, from the initial rush to quietly taking root.

This is due to his advanced philosophy, which teaches his subordinates how to distinguish the value of intelligence. He also advocated that you don't need to go into battle to kill the enemy, as long as you prick up your ears and listen, move your mouth to talk a few words, the more valuable the news!

Real money bounty!

Since some guys heard the news about Shandong one after another, it was confirmed that they immediately had money. It's not a lot of money, but it's an inspiration. Who doesn't have long ears? Everyone is striving to be the first, and everyone is full of strength to make meritorious contributions.

So much so that in the past few months, there have been a lot of downlines, and an intelligence network has been secretly formed. Maybe you accidentally bump into an idler on the street, a vendor buying snacks at a roadside stall, or those original caravans, or even ordinary people, may be the spy of the restaurant.

Chao Gai thinks that the four major Kou have not appeared during this time period, which is greatly disadvantageous to himself. It's not okay to be peaceful, it's not good to be alone, you can only find a helper!

Xu Guanzhong said that Tian Hu, a talented and talented person, is the best shield!

With the help of these well-intentioned people, the news spreads quickly! It was like having wings, and it spread all over Bianliang City within three or two days.

Tian Hu of Weisheng Prefecture entangled five or seven hundred people to raid homes and houses, burn and loot them a few years ago. The local government has repeatedly encircled and suppressed unfavorably, but it has allowed thieves to develop. With 35,000 people, he rushed to the prefecture and hit the government, broke Qinyuan County two months ago, killed all the officials, plundered money and grain, and arrested the husband in Latin, which was the party to the disaster.

The government ignored it, and the people of Wasion Prefecture were boiling.

As the saying goes, three people become tigers, let alone a super city with a population of one million in Bianliang City, Tokyo. The streets and alleys were full of discussions, and the people were indignant at the inaction of the imperial court, so they almost held signs and marched in the streets.

Even if there are many traitors in the court, there are still many loyal ministers after all. When the Jinluan Hall was at the meeting, someone knelt down from work and shouted long live. The news of Tian Hu's battle was poked out, and the Eighth Emperor Huizong was furious when he heard this. scolded Cai Jing, Tong Guan and other traitors who did not report it.

If you know that there are strong people who are causing trouble, then go and destroy them!

The defects of the Song Dynasty's troop transfer system appeared! Civilian officials are in power, and military generals are dispatched to lead troops. The procedure for dispatching troops is cumbersome, let alone two or three months.

The key is that you have to leave after the battle, the speed is so fast, the general doesn't know how many soldiers he has, and the soldiers don't know who his general's name is? The generals don't know the soldiers, the soldiers don't know the generals, what kind of combat effectiveness can such a team have?

The advantage is that it is convenient to eat empty salaries and make money!

Eight Emperor Huizong said that he wanted to suppress bandits! Cai Jing didn't dare to slack off, returned to the house after the dispersal, and invited the privy councillor Tong Guan and Taiwei Gao Yu to discuss important matters. was different from usual, but he didn't call another big traitor, Yang Jian.

The three of them discussed in the White Tiger Festival Hall of Taishi Mansion, and the three stinkers were Zhuge Liang. What's more, it was three cunning corrupt officials, who were sneakily plotting and deciding how many people to send and which generals to send to encircle and suppress Tian Hu.

After the three traitors discussed, Taiwei Gao Yu took the lead in leaving!

When Tong Guan said goodbye and was about to leave, he was pulled by Cai Jing: "Tong Shu is secretive and slow, the old man has something to say!" ”

"Hmph, what advice does the master have?" Tong Guan glanced at Cai Jing, his attitude lukewarm. Over the years, in order to fight for power, there has been a lot of red faces.

"Privy, if you and I continue to fight, it will be cheaper for others!" Cai Jing is in his seventies and does not have many wrinkles on his face, and he smiles like a grandfather next door.

"Someone else?" Tong Guan was stunned for a moment, and reacted randomly: "Taishi is talking about Yang Gong, right?" ”

"Privy, go, hurry up to tea!" Cai Jing nodded, invited Tong Guan to the study, and asked the maid to bring the best tea, and the two talked while drinking.

Last year, Yang Gong was appointed by the Holy Lord as the envoy of the Changhua Army, and he was the first to propose the establishment of the emperor's escort army to consolidate his power. and accompanied the saint in the deep palace, and the power is not worse than you and me.

A few years ago, a Xu official named Du Gongcai proposed to him, formulating a decree to obtain the land deeds of the common people, speculating on the yield of land, and increasing rent. The specific old man doesn't understand, anyway, what is the method of bracketing. Starting from Ruzhou, it slowly expanded to Jingdong, Jingxi, Huaixi, Huaibei and other places. The mountains of gold and silver were put into the state treasury, and the holy dragon was ......"

"Taishi has something to say, don't talk about these old things!" Tong Guan listened to Cai Jing's old story and praised it again and again, frowned, and interrupted directly.

"Hehe, the old man will say it directly!" Cai Jing was not annoyed, after a few sounds, his face became serious: "Yang Gong is so beautiful and refuses to stop, and he supports the reckless people in the rivers and lakes in Jeju, Shandong, what is the name of the Heavenly King Chao Gai, the name is not small, and he is also the Heavenly King!" Out of nowhere? Some time ago, I resold iron armor, bows and arrows and other equipment, and I don't know if the armor warehouse is moving? How long has it been, and the grain has been resold again. ”

"Taishi, the grain in the granary of Bianliang City should indeed be replaced, it's nothing!" Tong Guan and Yang Jian are both eunuchs, so they naturally stand together. looked at Cai Jing meaningfully, as if to say that you are not doing less.

"Privy, that's not what the old man meant!" Cai Jing shook his head and expressed the worry in his heart: "Yang Gong has made one action after another, I'm afraid that he will ...... with you and me."

Without waiting for him to finish, Tong Guan put down the teacup and directly interrupted his words: "Don't say it, Yang Gong is not in good health, and this move is paving the way for the younger generation." ”

There was some sadness on his white face, or rather the sadness of the death of a rabbit and a fox.

"You mean......" Cai Jing is a character with ups and downs, he knows better than anyone else about the things in the palace, and he immediately thought of it when he saw Tong Guan's appearance. Yang Jian is a eunuch, his health is deteriorating, and he is afraid that his life will not be long.

"If the master is fine, the old man will leave!" Tong Guan wanted to get up and say goodbye.

"Privy, the old man still has something to say!" Cai Jing hurriedly grabbed Tong Guan again: "Yang Gong doesn't mention it, the three rising stars in the court, Wang Huang, Liang Shicheng, and Zhu Mian, have a very strong momentum. If you and I continue to fight, it will be like two tigers fighting, and one will be injured, and it will be like the snipe and clam fighting, and the fisherman will benefit. ”

"Oh, what do you mean?" Tong Guan sat down and stared at the old fox.

"The old man doesn't want to fight, Privy, I heard that you have an adopted daughter who is as beautiful as a flower?"

"Yes and what? Could it be that the master is so old that he still wants to take a concubine? ”

"Hahaha, Tong Shumi's mouth is becoming more and more dexterous in the army, and he won't hide it from you......"

In the study, the two traitorous ministers of the dynasty frowned in order to consolidate their position. I didn't realize that there were always one or two servants outside.

In fact, Cai Jing is not vigilant! Yang Jian's recent movements have been frequent. Not to mention the transactions on the docks during the Chinese New Year, very few people know the truth.

But this time, the granary in Bianliang City replaced the old grain by order. How much stale grain, or how much oil and water, he Cai Jing's eyes are red!
