Wang Qing hurriedly ran over and said to Wang Pu: "Outside, I heard that the nearby Fan Department heard that it has reached the north and wants to flee to the party!" ”

Wang Pu waved his hand again and again: "Don't care, don't care!" If they rebel over there, they may not have a good life. This kind of thing, sooner or later, there will be a big mess! Just do your work and build the house before the weather is warm. Living your life well is better than anything else! ”

Wang Qing nodded, stepped forward again and whispered: "But, outside the staff, many people in our clan have relatives with them."

"At such times, what kind of relatives are you talking about! Go and tell the people of the clan, even if they are relatives, that they know that they are not far from us, and do not go around. Once you get into trouble, no one can save you! ”

Wang Pu was resolute and sent Wang Qing away and asked him to inform his people. Wang Qing left, and Wang Pu was distraught. Looking at the white ice and snow everywhere, I didn't know what to do for a while.

Du Zhongxiao divided the land, and Wang Pu arrived with the men of the clan and began to build houses and pave roads. Building materials such as timber and forage were sent by the government officials free of charge, and Wang Pu only needed to lead people to ram the earth to build a wall and make some effort to build a home. At the beginning of spring, the tribe will drive their cattle and sheep to this new homeland and start a new life. The government promised to provide food, and as long as there was food, all difficulties were not difficulties. In order to welcome a new life, Wang Pulian changed his name to himself, not as a leader, but as a member.

A few days ago, more and more people fled to the party, and the economic strategy turned a blind eye, showing an increasingly fierce trend, and even spread to Zhenwu County, the westernmost part. One of Wang Pu's neighboring tribes went to the bank of the Yellow River in the north, and heard that he was going to flee to the party. When the people of the tribe heard about it, they all talked about it. The two tribes were close to each other, and many people were related to each other, which made Wang Pu upset.

Wang Pu firmly believes that that is not a good thing, and it will cause a big disaster. However, he didn't care about it, and everything he expected fell through, which made Wang Pu feel frightened. The more the government doesn't care about this kind of thing, the bigger the chaos will be in the back. You can only restrain the tribe strictly, and don't mix it in.

Looking at the gray sky, the white earth, and occasionally dotted with a few withered yellow trees, Wang Pu sighed. Why is it so hard to live a good life? After the Song army came, as long as there was no Fan who violated the law, in fact, life was good, why should he escape?

In the Dulun Village, Qingning Deguang took a big sip of wine, bit a piece of meat, and said to Liu Sheng vaguely: "Okay, good, but after more than ten days of hard work, more than 2,000 accounts came!" If you do this well, the prime minister will definitely be rewarded! After two months, the ploughing and planting will begin, and the minister of state has already collected farm tools in Xiazhou, waiting for that day! If a large area of land in the south is reclaimed, I don't know how much grain will be produced in a year, and the prime minister will definitely like it! ”

Liu Sheng laughed with him, sat on the side, and took a sip of wine from time to time.

Things went too smoothly, which made Liu Sheng's heart more and more uneasy. The land is vast and sparsely populated, and the most valuable asset is the population. In a short period of time, so many people fled, and the Hequ Road government of the Song Dynasty ignored it, which made people unable to understand. If something goes wrong, it will be a demon, and Liu Sheng always feels that this is not a good thing.

At this moment, a soldier came in and said, "Tai Lieutenant, the owner of the village, there is a Song official outside, saying that he is in the Jinsu Military Office." ”

Liu Sheng hurriedly got up when he heard this, and said, "What does that person mean?" Is it a private matter or a business trip? ”

The soldier said: "Back to the master, it's a business trip." He took the seal and said that he wanted to meet the owner of the village. ”

Liu Sheng crossed his hand to Qing Ning Deguang: "Tai Lieutenant and happy, the little one will go and see that person." ”

Qing Ning Deguang nodded: "Just go." If there is any difficulty, let me know, and your own country will make the decision for you! ”

Liu Sheng promised, went out of the door, and went to the front hall. After a short time, the soldier brought in a man wearing the official uniform of the Song people.

The man entered the walled hall, saw Liu Sheng sitting above, and bowed his hand: "In Xia Luhong, in Jinsu Prefecture." On the order of the Zhijun, he came to negotiate with the owner of the village about fleeing into the Xia Kingdom these days. This is written by the Zhijun himself, please see the owner of the village. ”

Instructed the sergeant to hand over the letter, Liu Sheng said: "This kind of thing has always been to appease the envoy and negotiate with the military supervision department, what good is it to find me?" ”

Lu Hong said: "Not long after the dynasty entered the river meandering road, although Jing Luo was also a pacification envoy, there was no one under the Naihe tent, so I had to entrust the place. ”

Following the Khitan convention, border disputes such as fugitive households should be appeased by the envoys. The local newspaper appeased the envoy, and the pacification envoy was sent to the local government. Du Zhongxiao is a pacification envoy on the meandering road, and it is customary that Jin Sujun should not come forward.

However, Han Qi and Du Zhongxiao had already decided to take advantage of Fanluo's defection to have a fight with the party, and they didn't want to negotiate a result, so they handed over the matter to Jin Sujun. A village owner, a knowledgeable army, the two slowly tugged, and after the military preparations were completed, the war immediately began.

Liu Sheng opened the letter, read the contents, and put it aside.

The letter was written by Zhang Lin, the commander of the Jin Su Army, saying that he noticed that many Fanhu had fled to the Xia realm recently, and asked Liu Sheng to send someone to search for him and send him back to the Song Dynasty.

After thinking for a while, Liu Sheng said: "I don't know about this matter yet, I need to investigate it thoroughly before I can reply to the Zhijun." You go back, and when I find out in a few days, there will be an official document to Jin Sujun. ”

Lu Hong arched his hand: "There is such a labor master." The road is far away, and I will go back to my life here. ”

Watching Lu Hong leave, Liu Sheng hurriedly took the letter, returned to the back room, and said to Qingning Deguang: "Taiwei, the Song people have a letter, let us return the defected Fanhu!" There's something bad about it! ”

Qing Ning Deguang took the paperwork, glanced at it casually, then threw it aside, and said, "More than two thousand accounts have fled to our side, how can this matter be hidden?" The Song people came with such a letter lightly, and they didn't seem to attach importance to this matter. Since this is the case, let's make more efforts to recruit more fans to come over. If this matter is done, it will be rewarded! ”

Liu Sheng said: "Tai Lieutenant, the prime minister's reward is a matter of the future, let's talk about how to reply to Jin Sujun first." After escaping two or three thousand accounts, such a document came, which is unusual! Taiwei, I don't think the Song people care about these households, they just let them escape. ”

Qing Ning Deguang said: "Isn't this the best? We want people, they don't care, they take what they need! ”

Liu Sheng sighed: "Taiwei, I have been on the border for many years, and I used to deal with them for this kind of thing when the opposite side was Khitan. What official would let people flee and not do the same thing? If the Song people do this, they must have a plan, and they should not be taken lightly! ”

Hearing this, Qing Ning Deguang laughed: "Village master, you are worried about nothing!" What are the plans of the Song people? Could it be that this is an excuse to attack us? The Dulun Village is impregnable, what do the Song people use to fight! If it is a siege, the prime minister will send troops to rescue. ”

Liu Sheng said: "Don't forget, Tai Wei, Song has a cannon!" The artillery is very sharp, and the one-wheeled wall may not be able to stop it! ”

Qing Ning Deguang was stunned for a moment: "The artillery is so powerful? Can even the city walls collapse? I heard that when the lord of the Khitan Kingdom was killed by the artillery, he was stared at outside the city, and several rounds of artillery were all blown up around him, so he ended up in that fate. ”

Liu Sheng was a little helpless: "Tai Lieutenant, last year the Khitan came to attack, and their artillery bombardment knocked down the city wall?" Not to mention, the artillery of the Song army is much stronger than the Khitan! If the Song army comes to attack, how can the small single-wheel village be defended! ”

Qingning Deguang looked at Liu Sheng, and after a while, he shook his head: "The owner of the village is too worried, the Song army will definitely not attack, no!" ”
