What's the change, what about the monthly pass? Let's have some more! Rollo rolled on the ground and pleased

On June 15 of the first year of Jingding of the Great Song Dynasty, in Yangzhou, Huaidong Road, Great Song Dynasty, on the official road leading to the sandbank, 545 horsemen and horses galloped, most of these horses were dressed in dusty clothes, and carried scimitars, bows and arrows. In addition to their own mounts, the five hundred and forty-fifty horsemen and horses drove more than five thousand horses with them. The Southern Song Dynasty was short of horses to the point that even the guards and horses had no horses, and they could drive thousands of groups of horses at a time.

However, the leader of the Mongol envoys was a young and vulgar Confucian student. Vulgar is a little rougher, not a white-faced scholar. But he wore a cardigan and a hanging horned head, which was no different from the Confucian genius of the Southern Dynasty.

Following this vulgar Confucian was three old and one young, also dressed as Confucians, and one of them was Hao Jing, who was "frightened" in the Perak Navy camp a few days ago. Hao Jing "fell ill" after leaving the Perak Navy Army camp and was in bed for many days until yesterday.

And the elixir that cured him was nothing else, it was the rude-looking Confucian student, the real golden prince who came all the way from the Golden Lotus River grassland!

He came to rob Chen Dexing's fiancée! Of course, Chen Dexing is not a good person, he just robbed his cousin, and he plans to rob all the women in his family who are a little beautiful

The real golden prince and his entourage have arrived outside Shazhou City, and there are more carriages and horses on this section of the official road, and they can no longer run wildly. You can only walk slowly.

"Your Highness, this is the Thunderbolt Naval Army Camp!"

Hao Jing sat on the horse. Raising his hand, he pointed to a large military camp not far away. The size of the military camp is really large, covering almost twenty miles of land. And it's still busy with construction. It's like building a house. There are also many people dressed as ordinary people coming in and out. The north gate of the barracks was open, and many people who were engaged in small business had already set up stalls and were shouting and selling.

"It doesn't seem to be very strict......," the real golden prince just frowned, "why are there so many stalls?" ”

"Your Highness, to the north of the barracks is a camp for families, and all that is being built is a house for the families of the Perak Navy generals. The camp for the actual military generals is further south, just by the Yangtze River. It can be very strict, the gate is strict, and there is no general order. No one can get in or out. Even the families of the military in the family camp were not allowed to enter without orders. ”

"Well, that's exactly how it should be." The real golden prince nodded, the barracks are not a vegetable market, you can come if you want, and you can leave if you want. "It seems that this thunderbolt navy is really a strong force, and my Great Mongolia wants to level the four seas and dominate the world, and the biggest obstacle is them!"

"Definitely. Definitely. Hao Jing shook his head, "The biggest obstacle for the Great Khan to collect Jiangnan is the hearts of the people!" The people of Jiangnan, who are not attached to the people, regard our great Mongolia as a flood beast. Desperately resisted, this is the reason why the first Great Khan hated the Yangtze River. ”

"People's hearts ......" Prince Zhenjin was a little puzzled, "How can we win the hearts of the people in Jiangnan?" ”

"Respect for literature and Confucianism." Hao Jing said four words triumphantly.

"Why?" The real golden prince humbly asks for advice. As a matter of fact. He was a Confucian student, and he was taught by a vote of Confucian scholars in the North. Of course. He did not put down the arch horse scimitar of the Mongols either. Don't look at the only 17 years old, but he has learned Han and Mongolia. Able to be literary and martial. The only drawback is that it looks a little ugly......

"Your Royal Highness, the people of the south are all good at literature and hatred of martial arts, and they are valued by their articles and knowledge, and the status of the Southern Confucianism is high, and they can enter the imperial examination and share the world with the Son of Heaven." The one who took over the topic was a middle-aged Confucian man, dressed like Hao Jing, but with a thick beard, and he had not been trimmed for many days, and he looked a little sloppy.

This person is also a big traitor, named Dou Mo, the word Hanqing, who is proficient in science and acupuncture. is the teacher of the real golden prince. This time, I accompanied the real golden prince to the south and arrived in Yangzhou a few days ago.

He said eloquently: "And in my northern land, if the Confucian does not go out of the Shijin Lianchuan, he can only rely on the Shihou and look up to his snort, and there is a saying that there are ten beggars and nine Confucians." In this way, how could Nanru not oppose the Mongols? And if the Southern Confucians oppose the Mongols, they will incite the people and drive the soldiers to become enemies of us. There are tens of thousands of people in the south, and many of them are as brave as Chen Dexing for their use, so there is the defeat of Nantuochang. ”

"I see!"

Hao Jing touched a few beards and added: "This is attacking the heart for the top and attacking the city for the bottom." Now that Nan Confucianism Wen Tianxiang is running the "Liberation" newspaper, blindly smearing our great Mongolia, in fact, he is also attacking the heart, attacking the heart of Southern Confucianism and the people of the South. If we can't break their defenses, it will be very difficult for the Great Mongols to unify Jiangnan. ”

"Then I went south to ask to marry the princess of Shengguo, but I was attacked?" Prince Zhenjin asked thoughtfully.

"It's the heart." Hao Jing said, "As long as His Royal Highness lives in Lin'an for 10 years, and has a lot of contacts with Southern Confucianism, let them know that our Great Mongolia respects Confucianism and literature, and when the Great Khan goes south in the future, there will not be so much resistance." ”

"But Nanban still has heroes like Chen Dexing!"

Hao Jing said with a smile: "Although this son is brave, he is a villain in the end, and he is too rampant and does not know how to restrain himself." If you can't be the princess of the Southern Dynasty, it will be difficult to die well, and you don't have to worry about it. ”

"Is it hard to end well?" Prince Zhenjin shook his head, "How many troops does he have now?" ”

"There are about 20,000 people, of whom 15,000 are soldiers."

During this time, although Hao Jing was "sick", he was deaf and clear-sighted, and he already knew a lot about the Thunderbolt Army.

Zhenjin frowned and said: "When he had more than 10,000 people, he defeated Meng Ke Khan, and now there are 20,000 people, who else can help him?" ”

Hao Jing said with a smile: "If the battle is decided or lost on the battlefield, no one in the Southern Dynasty is the opponent of the Thunderbolt Water Army, but the means of the officials of the Southern Dynasty are not only the use of force. This monarch and ministers, the respect and humility of the upper and lower are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the Southern Dynasties...... Didn't Gaozong of the Southern Dynasty eradicate Yue Wumu without using his sword in the past? ”

"Another Yue Wumu!"

"Exactly!"

As they spoke, the group bypassed Shazhou City from the official road along the canal to the pier along the river. Several official ships with colorful flags fluttering were already waiting there, and a painted archway and a pavilion for receiving officials were also erected. Huaidong pacified the pro-soldiers sent by the envoy division, five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry on guard. Liu Mengyan, who was ordered to come north to greet the Mongolian envoys, was dressed in all his robes, and stood on the dock to greet the driver, surrounded by a group of official attachés.

"Your Highness, we have arrived." When Hao Jing grabbed the reins and turned his head to speak to Zhenjin, the corner of his eye suddenly swept to more than a dozen huge galleys on the river, which were swinging their oars, breaking through the surging Yangtze River water, and sailing towards the east.

"This is ......" The real golden prince also saw the dozen or so big ships, his triangular eyes widened, as if he thought of something, and vaguely revealed a trace of fear.

"This is the Thunderbolt Navy's battleship, a three-deck galleys...... It is a sea ship, several times larger than the centipede ship used in the battle of Nantuochang! ”

"Thunderbolt Navy's warship!" One of the four Confucian scholars who followed Zhen Jin was a little older, with a sallow complexion and a somewhat sluggish spirit, suddenly showed a strange expression, raised his head, looked at the battleship heading east, and muttered to himself, "It seems that the sky is immortal, every time the building is about to fall, there will always be a hero born......"

"Mr. Jiang Han!" Hao Jing heard this, but said in a gloomy voice, "Your words are wrong, the so-called heavenly way is unkind, and everything is used as a dog, why do you love the Han family?" ”

The person who is called Mr. Jiang Han is Zhao Fu, and he does not refute Hao Jing, but he just shakes his head and is silent, but his eyes are firmly fixed on a giant galleys sailing next to each other on the river.

……

"That fat man on horseback is real gold?"

At this moment, Chen Dexing is standing on the back deck of the Perak Navy's brand-new flagship "Haitian", holding a telescope to observe the crowded sandbank pier.

He is now leading his troops to Lin'an Xianjie. The will from Dong Songchen and the order issued by the Privy Council were to let him go to the station by water and take 2,500 horses with him, and the Perak Navy Army Department would accompany all the above officers, except for Zhang Shijie, Lu Shihu and others to stay in the camp to guard.

Everyone knows that the "waterway" mentioned in this will and order is the canal waterway, and Guazhou is at the confluence of the canal and the Yangtze River, and it is the most convenient and fast route to Lin'an by taking the canal. However, the waterway that Chen Dexing understood was a sea route, which went south along the Yangtze River to the sea, then bypassed the Yangtze River Delta into Hangzhou Bay, and then docked at Mingzhou Port in Qingyuanfu (Ningbo).

It's a bit of a big circle! The original waterway of more than 500 miles has become 1,200 miles and slowly long-distance. However, the speed of Chen Jiajun's galleys was much higher than that of the official ships sailing on the canal, and the river and sea were not crowded, so the time spent on the road was much shorter. Correspondingly, the size of the Thunderbolt Navy's sorties is well over 2,500. In order to transport these 2,500 horse infantry troops, a total of 11 galleys were used, and the required oarsmen, sailmen, and helmsmen added together more than 4,000 people, plus the commanders of various departments and their "personal entourage", the entire Perak Navy Army dispatched a total of 7,000 soldiers!

In addition, arrangements were also made for the Perak Army Battalion on Shazhou, and Monk Liu, commander of the Right Army of the Perak Army and deputy chief instructor of the Great Righteous Instructor Corps, remained in charge in the name of recuperation, assisted by former army commander Zhang Shijie. Although most of the officers at all levels above the rank of general in the army (including subordinate generals) left with Chen Dexing, they were not among the righteous instructors -- there was no such official position in the Song army, and of course the orders of the Privy Council could not be issued to them. Therefore, most of them stayed in their original posts and concurrently served as military commanders. Most of the most reliable fake sons in Chen Dexing's hands also stayed in Shazhou, led by Chen Nufa and Chen Chongguan, and were directly responsible to Monk Liu.

"General, this person is real gold." Liu Yang followed Chen Dexing's side and pointed to Zhenjin Dao, who was dismounting, "Although he is a Mongolian, he has been familiar with poetry and books since he was a child, believes in Confucianism, and is close to the Northland Cynic. ”

Chen Dexing put down the binoculars, and his face was self-defeating: "Hmph, isn't it just a robber pretending to be a scholar?" Sooner or later, a certain family will take his life! (To be continued......) R1292
