Yang Shi was also quite surprised, turned his head to look at Gao Huaiyuan, stretched out his hand to put down the tea bowl, stood up and said angrily: "Nonsense! How can it be done like this? Li Quan is sitting on Jingdong Road, there are only disadvantages and no benefits for the imperial court, and since the imperial court has made a decision this time, it is just that!

But for Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan's salary, it must not be cut off! Only by supporting them can we effectively contain Li Quan's forces, this matter is simply nonsense! Wouldn't it really be a problem to raise tigers if this continued? Who are you listening to? Is this really possible? ”

Gao Huaiyuan nodded and said, "The lower officer also heard about it from the Ministry of War, so it is estimated that it can't be fake!" But this kind of thing, people like us, it's just talking, and it's not up to us to speak!

But Xiao felt that what Hou Ye said was right, Li Quan is not credible, now with Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan to contain Li Quan, there are only benefits and no harm for our Great Song Dynasty to regain control of Jingdong Road, if all the money and grain are given to Li Quan, but the food and salary of Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan and other armies are cut off, I am afraid that it will only make Li Quan stronger, and it is obviously a little unwise to do so! ”

When Yang Shi heard this, he immediately fell silent, Gao Huaiyuan saw that the heat was almost over, and he didn't say much, so he got up and said goodbye, Yang Shi stood up to send Gao Huaiyuan, and suddenly said: "Even you can see that this matter is inappropriate, so this matter really shouldn't be done!" I'm glad I heard you mention this matter today, otherwise, it might really be a big deal, so you go first! I'm going out to my brother to discuss this! Come on, prepare a sedan chair! ”

Saying that Yang Shi didn't change his official uniform, he left his mansion with Gao Huaiyuan, Gao Huaiyuan stood on the street, watching Yang Shi's sedan chair walk all the way towards Yang Gu's mansion, and it seemed that everyone could see that doing this was a losing move, but Shi Miyuan, an old guy, actually made such a bastard decision in order to fight for power and profit, it can be seen that this guy has reached the level of a bastard at home for his own strength! If this old guy is tossed again, the Southern Song Dynasty is really hopeless!

After shaking his head, Gao Huaiyuan summed it up, and wondered in his heart whether to go to Xue Ji again, but after thinking about it, for the sake of safety, he still dispelled this idea, after all, Xue Ji is Shi Miyuan's personal lackey, if he talks too much, he may not cause any trouble, since Zheng Qingzhi and the Yang brothers have come forward in this matter, it must have played some role! If the Southern Song Dynasty had to perish, it would not be something he could save alone, and it would be considered benevolence and righteousness to do so!

So Gao Huaiyuan cleaned up his mood, and after going around, he went out of the inner city and got into Jia Qi's courtyard. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Is there any news over there? Have he and the Flying Tiger Army rushed back to Haizhou? As soon as Gao Huaiyuan sat down, he asked Judge.

Jia Qi nodded and said: "There is already news, Daquan has led the Flying Tiger Army to rush back to Haizhou from Mizhou, and began to deploy defenses in Haizhou, but it was delayed for two days on the way, after all, there are many recruits in the Flying Tiger Army, and they are tired from the repeated battles, and some soldiers have fled on the way, so they have to rest in the Juzhou area for two days, so it is a little later than the date you requested!"

However, the impact was not great, although Li Quan sent Li Fu to lead troops to attack Haizhou, but because the matter of Chuzhou was not very clear, Li Quan did not dare to be too presumptuous now, so he sent 50,000 troops to the Shuyang area, and did not immediately launch an attack.

The biggest problem at the moment is the problem of soldiers' rations, after a few months of war, the Flying Tiger Army's strength has increased greatly, and the grain and straw obtained before are now due to the large increase in troops, and there is a shortage of them, and now I am most worried that the imperial court will not continue to allocate food and salaries to Daquan them, if that is the case, the soldiers' rations will be very problematic!

But fortunately, there is still more than a month to go to the autumn harvest season, at the beginning of the year Daquan and Liu Chengyi arranged to reclaim the land, a month later it should be the autumn harvest, then they can solve their food problem, the most difficult is this month, if Li Quan's soldiers and horses rush to attack Haizhou before the autumn harvest, then Daquan must die in the south of Haizhou Li Quan's army, grab the crops in the field, if Li Quan is allowed to fight under the city of Haizhou, then this battle is equivalent to defeat! ”

Gao Huaiyuan was in a bad mood, the situation was originally very good, but because of Shi Miyuan's old thief's stupid moves, the Flying Tiger Army now had to turn offensive to defensive, otherwise, by the end of the year, the Flying Tiger Army would be able to control more territory, it can be said that it was all caused by Shi Miyuan's old thief.

"I'm also worried about this matter, Daquan's development speed is too fast, at the beginning of the year he only had 10,000 troops, we support him, it's not too difficult, now he has expanded to 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses, just with my industries, all of them may not be enough for him to use!

At present, grabbing the autumn grain is the key to success or failure, as for the grain and salary on the side of the imperial court, don't count it for the time being, I estimate that I can't count on the imperial court for the time being!

You inform Daquan and Chengyi that no matter what price they pay, they must block Li Quan's army in Shuyang south of Haizhou, and prevent them from entering Haizhou, and support them until the autumn grain is harvested, and then retreat to Haizhou City to defend the city, and severely damage Li Quan's army! However, it is necessary to be especially prepared for Li Quan's meticulous work in the army, and don't follow in the footsteps of Li Quan's battle in Enzhou!

Then there is the one who informs our people in Yangzhou and Qingyuan Mansion to speed up the speed of transporting grain to Haizhou, and other materials can be put away, mainly focusing on transporting grain to support them in this battle! Gao Huaiyuan quickly made arrangements.

Jia Qi smiled bitterly and said: "I have already begun to arrange these things, at the moment our ship capacity is limited, and there are only a dozen large ships operating day and night, which is still not enough for a while!" ”

Gao Huaiyuan lowered his head and pondered for a while, a little irritable in his heart, and suddenly he remembered something, so he asked Jia Qi: "By the way, I've been busy these days and dizzy, I forgot to ask you one thing, how did my brother do in Qingyuan Mansion during this time?" My dad wrote to ask about it, but I forgot about it because I was busy with Jingdong and the Zhongshun Army! ”

Judge also patted his head and said, "Yo! I didn't think about it, young master, wait first, I'll ask! With that, Judge turned and ran out, asking his men in charge of transportation about it.

Gao Huaiyuan circled around the room, bowed his head and thought about the corresponding strategies, constantly thinking of various solutions in his heart, and gradually he had an idea to increase the transportation capacity.

After waiting for a while, Jia Qi ran back, and said to Gao Huaiyuan with an embarrassed smile: "I asked, Qingyuan Mansion sent a message, saying that since the second young master arrived in Qingyuan Mansion, he has not made any mistakes, and he is conscientious in doing things, and he has taken the boat to Quanzhou several times in a row, and also went to Guangzhou, and the people on the boat said that he is very serious in his work, not at all like the children of a big family, and he has a lot of experience in sailing!" It's a good hand! It seems that the second young master's hardships over the years have not been in vain, but he has really changed his sex! ”

Gao Huaiyuan was in a much better mood after hearing this, nodded and said: "The prodigal son will not change his money, it seems that my second brother has indeed changed his mind, I hope he will not return to the old path, and forget the hardships of the past few years after he has achieved his will!" You tell the Qingyuan Mansion and let him also lead the boat and start helping to transport grain to Chaohaizhou! His boat is not small, and it is enough for thousands of people to eat at least half a month when it is filled at one time!

I just thought of a way, since we don't have enough capacity at the moment, we simply hire ships to transport grain in Yangzhou, and my father also has a few sea ships, which have been docked in Qingyuan Mansion to do maritime business, I wrote to my father, these ships will also come, so that a lot of problems can be solved! In short, we must ensure the supply of grain over there in Daquan, no matter how much it costs! Let him support until the autumn grain harvest is completed! ”

Jia Qi was relieved at this time, nodded and said: "If you can do this, there should be no problem, Zhou Jun has now brought a group of people from Zhuangzi to Haizhou, you can strengthen the strength of Daquan, Zhou Jun is more powerful than Daquan in terms of military training, and the town guards are in his hands, maybe it will change a lot soon!" The craftsmen over there have now arrived in Laiwu and have begun to build a large-scale smelting furnace in Laiwu, so we don't have to worry about them in terms of weapons in the future! As long as it lasts until next summer, as soon as the summer grain is ripe, we don't have to worry about anything anymore! ”

Gao Huaiyuan nodded and walked to the front of the map, drew a big circle with his finger on the map, and circled Laiwu, Juzhou, Haizhou, and Mizhou into the circle and said with a smile: "I didn't expect it!" In more than a year, Daqo occupies such a large area, many of these places are grain-producing areas, as long as the operation is done properly, after next summer, grain will not be a problem! Stick with it, you can make a difference! ”

That night, Gao Huaiyuan wrote a letter to Gao Jian in Yangzhou, reporting Gao Huairen's matter to Gao Jian, presumably Gao Jian should be very happy after knowing Gao Huairen's change! Some time ago, he wrote to tell his father Gao Jian about Gao Huairen's homecoming, and Gao Jian immediately sent a letter to him, asking him to forgive Gao Huairen for what he had done before, and to express his gratitude to Gao Huaiyuan for accepting Gao Huairen's behavior this time, and asked Gao Huaiyuan to take care of Gao Huairen's family on his behalf. In addition, Gao Jian also made a special trip back to Shaoxing to take Gao Huairen's wife and children to Yangzhou to meet his grandson, which shows that Gao Jian also has a lot of affection for this grandson who has never met.

After talking about Gao Huairen's matter, Gao Huaiyuan mentioned in the letter that he wanted to borrow a few cargo ships from Gao Jian, and that he would use them for a period of time to transport some goods, and then return them to Gao Jian.

After writing this letter, Gao Huaiyuan asked Li Ruohu to arrange for someone to immediately send it to Yangzhou City to be handed over to his father Gao Jian, and he could finally take a break!
