Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 26 Fighting in the Streets
There are still many people in Kaifeng City, and it is still very lively.It's just that the water transportation is not working. After Jin Jun robbed the people, the people had no money, and there were many businesses in the city that could not go on.After Zong Ze guarded Kaifeng, things calmed down for a while, and many refugees gathered in the city.

On the third day of entering the city, Wang Xiaohun took Cao Zhiyan, Yu Huan and Yang Shen out of the barracks and wandered around the city together.

Leaving the Tielin Camp, walking along the Cai River, and unknowingly came to the opposite side of the Daxiangguo Temple.I saw people across the river like a jam, and there were all kinds of things on the street.Wang Xiaohun said: "Let's go to Xiangguo Temple to see. I don't know how many days we will be staying in Kaifeng City. After that, we will need to buy everything for daily expenses, rice noodles and so on. After asking the price, we will make arrangements early."

Yu Huan said: "In the Ding Du patrol army, the Du patrol never cared about this. When the army ran out of food, they sent people out to collect some in the surrounding countryside. If you want to eat wine and meat, each person finds his own way."

"Isn't that a robbery?" Wang Xiaohun shook his head. "My father raised the army to save the country and the people, to save the people from water and fire. How could he do such a thing? The day before yesterday, he was rewarded with some gold and silver. If you are careful, you can last for a long time."

Yu Huan did not speak.The army directly under Zongze in the city is only a few thousand people, but the army of the other leaders is unknown.By buying, how many troops can live in Kaifeng?The Bianhe waterway has been interrupted for several months, and there is no food from other places, and there is a shortage of food.

After crossing the Xiangguo Temple Bridge and arriving by the Bian River, it became lively all of a sudden.

Looking at the surrounding scene, Yang Shen said: "The Kaifeng Mansion is indeed the residence of the emperor! After the chaos, it was especially prosperous! Last year, the officials took us outside Kaifeng City, and were not allowed to enter the city. Today, with Xiaosheren, we only saw Such a bustling sight!"

Wang Xiaohun shook his head: "Prosperity is prosperity, but most of the things here, we can't afford it."

Now the price of goods in Kaifeng is dozens of times higher than before, and with the little money in my hand, I can't buy anything.A few people just looked at it.

After walking a few steps, the crowd in front suddenly gathered.Others shouted: "Fighting! Fighting!"

Wang Xiao hunted: "At this time, there are still people fighting in Kaifeng City? Let's go up and see, who is so domineering!"

Several people stepped forward quickly and squeezed into the crowd.I saw two groups of soldiers in the middle, a group of more than ten people and a group of only eight people, shouting and scolding.The leader of the group of more than ten people, Wang Xiaohun, recognized it as Peng Tan in Ding Jin's army.

At this moment, like a fighting rooster, he raised his voice and pointed at the person in front of him and scolded: "Zhi Niang thief, you pigs and dogs are not as good as things! What are the things that grandpas fancy, why do you rob them?!"

A general on the opposite side hugged his arms and said coldly, "You bastards are useless in battle, and you dare to rob people! This is Kaifeng Mansion, where you are running wild? !"

Wang Xiaohun heard it and said to Yu Huan, "Where is Kaifeng House? Anyone else dare to be a robber in the street?"

Yu Huan was a little helpless: "Xiaosheren, what kind of robber? As long as you have a knife in your hand and wear a military uniform, it's not a robbery. What's wrong with the soldiers fighting, what's wrong with collecting some things? If we don't recruit from the people, what do we eat?"

Wang Xiaohun was stunned for a moment and said, "So, who dares to do business in Kaifeng City?"

Yu Huan said: "Those who do business here have their own backers. If you come to snatch it, naturally someone will support you. If you don't have a backer, you must find a backer before you put it out, or you will definitely be robbed. In today's situation, I think it was Pengtan who came to touch it. To the new businessman."

Wang Xiaohun nodded, some understanding in his heart, and some not understanding.Like this, why don't you stay behind Zongze?On second thought, how many people does Zong Ze have?Can you handle it?With so many troops in the city, it was a great thing not to make a big mess.

Zongze's official career is not going well.After becoming a Jinshi, it took nearly 30 years to achieve the Dengzhou General Judgment.Speaking of which, Wang Xiaolie's father, Wang Rudai, was stronger than him.The Jin people went south, and Zong Ze was ordered to serve as the magistrate of Cizhou when he was in danger.In the chaotic season when the Jin people went south, he also served as the general manager of the capital of the Hebei Rebel Army.When Kaifeng City was attacked by Jin soldiers, Zhao Gou happened to be in Hebei and was appointed as the Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses.Zong Ze, who insisted on resisting the gold, was the deputy marshal.Later, the second emperor Beishou, Zhao Gou came to the throne, and Zong Ze was appointed as the left guard in Tokyo.

In the three or four years that the Jin army went south, Zong Ze quickly grew from an inconspicuous mid-level official like a pass sentence to a stay-at-home officer in Tokyo and became an important minister of the country.His prestige was established in the process of resisting gold, and he was not an important official of the previous Song Dynasty.

This experience makes Zongze different from other people in the court.At the beginning of Zhao Gou, Zong Zeli made great achievements.But when the scale began to take shape, North Korean and Chinese officials did not care about him.Zong Ze was actually a little embarrassed when he was in Kaifeng.

The two groups of people were in the middle of the street, and the louder the noise, the worse it became.Wang Xiaohun listened to the content of their quarrel, and realized that the soldier opposite Pengtan was Han Shizhong's soldier.Luoyang Wenjia Temple Han Shizhong was defeated and hated Ding Jin for avoiding the war.Back in Kaifeng, the two armies often fought and fought endlessly.This scene has actually happened many times today.In particular, Wang Xiaohun killed the Jin soldiers who defeated Ding Jin, and then defended Gongxian County. Han Shizhong's soldiers looked down on Ding Jin even more.

After a while, Peng Tan couldn't bear it any longer.Seeing how many people he had, he pulled out his sword and attacked.

Wang Xiaohun looked at him and shook his head: "When facing the Jin people, these people ran away. At this time, facing their own people, they have the courage."

Yu Huan listened, her face turned red, and she lowered her head and did not speak.Isn't that what the group of thieves in Kaifeng looks like?I used to be the same when I was under Ding Jin.After hunting with Wang Xiao and winning the battle, it was different from before.

Han Shizhong's subordinates are regular troops, born out of the original Western Army of the Song Dynasty. Is it comparable to Peng Tan?After a few rounds, Peng Tan and others were beaten back.On the streets of Kaifeng, they showed mercy, and no one died.

Peng Tan was kicked in the chest by the opposite general and rolled twice on the ground.He jumped up from the ground suddenly, feeling a tightness in his chest.If you have the heart to fight to the death, the other party is too powerful, and he hesitates there for a while.

Turning his head suddenly, he saw Yu Huan in the crowd.He couldn't help being overjoyed and called out, "Yu Huan, why don't you come to help?"

Yu Huan looked at Wang Xiaohun, shook his head and said, "I am now a soldier under General Wang, how dare I make trouble in the street?"

Peng Tan was stunned for a moment, only to see Wang Xiaohun.Seeing Wang Xiao's hunting face sinking like water and his eyes like electricity, he was speechless for a while.

After a while, Peng Tan said: "Xiao Sheren, you were unconscious at the beginning, and it was Du Xun who led you to march, and then you recovered. Speaking of which, we used to be in the same army, and we had the friendship of the same robe, so we stepped forward. Can you help me?"

Wang Xiaohun said solemnly: "When we fight together to kill the enemy, we have the friendship of the same robe. When you were in Yong'an that day, when you saw the Jin army, you scattered and fled, ignoring the fact that our army was behind, what did you say about the friendship of the same robe? Peng Tixia, don't talk like this, it will ruin my prestige!"

Hearing this, Han Shizhong's men on the opposite side applauded.

Peng Tan blushed and said angrily: "Even if you can't beat the Jin Army, the capital patrol is still the Kaifeng capital patrol! You do this, you are not afraid of the capital patrol? Also, you took in Yu Huan and others from the capital patrol army. , how could Du Xun spare you!"

Wang Xiaohun said indifferently: "What do you want to say to the patrol, let him come to my camp to find me! Other nonsense, you should shut up!"
