Chapter 432
To the northeast of Laojun Mountain is a hill called "Pecking Spider Mountain".

After the flood receded, Li Xia and Yi Shiyingce immediately went to the top of the mountain. Looking north, they could see a row of horseshoe marks in the wet soil.

Li Xia has learned to look for traces and judges that there are at most 2000 people.

"It seems that Niu Lin escaped here when the flood came." Yi Shiying sighed, "It's a pity that he couldn't be captured."

"The Yunding defenders are still blocking from the north, and Niu Lin may not be able to escape." Li Xia said, "It's okay even if he escapes, lest Brother Meng send another general to attack."

"It would be nice to share some pressure for the Chongqing government."

Yi Shiying looked at Li Xia, and said again: "I will eat the imperial salary, so don't be afraid."

Naturally, Li Xia wasn't afraid of anything, and didn't want to be affected by his plan to manage Syria.

But he still responded honestly: "Thank you General Yi for your teaching."

Looking at the mountains and rivers, the mountains and fields after the flood subsided were quiet.

Unlike the Yellow River, whose course is changeable, the course of the Tuojiang River is stable. After the accumulated flood momentum passes, it will soon return to its own course.

"I only hope that the invasion of Mengta will recede as soon as possible like this flood." Yi Shiying was quite emotional.

Li Xia knew that this was impossible, and never took such a chance.

A messenger came galloping on horseback from the west, not from Laojun Mountain, but it seemed to be a letter from Syria.

Sure enough, Zhu Yusun, the appeasement envoy of Tongchuanfu Road, had already woken up, ordered people to bring food and grass, and ordered Yi Shiying to return to Lingxiao Township to guard quickly, and ordered Li Xia to lead the army to return to Xuzhou.

Yi Shiying's duty is to guard the city of Ling Xiao, and he has no objection to this.

"Then I will ask General Yi to arrange it first." Li Xia said, "I will go to Fushun prison to meet the Yunding Army."

"Alright, when you come back, the Changning Army will start again. Hurry up and come back, the military order is like a mountain, don't delay."

Yi Shiying felt a little emotional in his heart, but Li Xia, a district magistrate, was able to contact the defenders everywhere, and his ability was indeed strong. In the future, his official position must be higher than his own.

I only hope that he can become the pillar of the Song Dynasty.

"Also, you bring more people, be careful."

Yi Shiying gave another order, and steered the horse back to Laojun Mountain.

Li Xia and the messenger walked behind.

"Magistrate, before the comforter Zhu wakes up, Mr. Han has already controlled Xuzhou."

"I know."

~~
This time it was Kong Xian, the guard, who led the troops down the mountain from Yunding City, and Yi Qing was in charge of staying behind.

Because Kong Xian was born as a civil servant, he has rich experience in building cities and walls over the years.Digging canals and breaking embankments is more suitable than Yiqing.

It is a pity that they failed to intercept the remnants of Niu Lin, allowing more than a thousand Mongolian troops to break through the line of defense and run northward.

"It's okay, let the marshal go back to Chengdu." Li Xia said: "General Kong please move, I have some ideas about the next battle in western Sichuan..."

Li Xia and Kong Xian talked for a long time again, and then rushed back to Laojun Mountain.

After a victory, the troops of Xu and Lu will return to their respective camps...

~~
Syria.

Jiang Chun climbed to the top of the city, seeing the Song army crossing the Minjiang River, he couldn't help but feel good.

"It's safe."

Now Tongchuan Fu Road appeasement envoy Zhu Yusun is temporarily stationed in Xuzhou to recuperate his wounds, and temporarily ordered Jiang Chunquan to know the affairs of Xuzhou. The memorial has been written and will be sent to Xingzai today.

Jiang Chun never thought that just sitting at home could lead to a higher official rank.

Looking at it now, Wei Wenbo's death was nothing more than a trivial matter.

Compared with New York's army pressing down on the border... No, I heard that the Mongol Lord has personally conquered Sichuan and Shu. In the face of such a major event, what is the death of a Zhizhou?
Presumably, in recent days, many appeasement envoys, Xuanfu envoys, transfer envoys, Zhizhou, Dutong, and Tongzhi have died.

Waiting for the list to be sent to Xingzai, how can the court see it?
Wouldn't it be beautiful to guard the city and wait for promotion.

Of course, just two days ago, Jiang Chun didn't think so.At that time, because he was afraid of New Lin's attack on Xuzhou, he was so scared that he didn't close his eyes for several nights... It's all over, all over.

"Feiyu!"

Jiang Chun soon saw Li Xia's towering figure getting off the boat, and he hurriedly got down from the top of the wall to meet him himself.

"Feiyu has made great contributions again. Congratulations, gratification, congratulations."

He wanted to pat Li Xia on the shoulder to show his appreciation, but when he raised his hand halfway, Jiang Chun realized something was wrong, swiped his sleeves, and changed to a supporting motion.

"Thanks to Jiang Tongjuan, oh, Jiang Zhizhou." Li Xia said: "Thanks to Zhizhou for strategizing and sending Qingfu Army and Changning Army to support..."

Jiang Chun was still shaking his head, and said, "Well, it's not Zhizhou. It's just that the appeasement envoy temporarily ordered me to know..."

In the middle of the conversation, he suddenly stopped, and asked in surprise: "Is it me? I planned the strategy?"

Li Xia smiled slightly, tacitly.

Jiang Chun was overjoyed, and suppressed his blushing, and asked in a low voice, "I sent you north to contact Yunding, get Zizhou, and then go down to Luchuan?"

"Yes, but I don't know what Wei Zhizhou said at the time?"

Jiang Chun understood, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, you just leave this matter to your brother to arrange."

"Zhizhou is Qiao'er's adoptive father, I dare not call him elder brother."

"Then call Uncle, Uncle, don't look so strange..."

Li Xia looked around and saw that Han Qi'an, Li Zhaocheng, Gao Nianfeng and other confidantes were all there, only Jiang Fan was missing.

"Where's the ginger rice?"

Han Qi'an stepped forward and said in a low voice: "I was supposed to come to welcome the county magistrate, but some people changed something, and I ordered him to do it..."

~~
At the same time, a doctor carrying a medicine box turned into the government office in Xuzhou City, and all the way into a public house.

Sitting in the room was a middle-aged official named "Lu Yizhou", who was an official from the Imperial Envoy Platform and served as the observation envoy of Tongchuanfu Road.

The Song Dynasty attached great importance to the supervision of the local area, and Zhu Yusun, the appeasement envoy, belonged to the center to appease the local area.

However, the appeasement envoy is regarded as a "handsome minister", so there is no guarantee that there will be no violation of the law, or even rebellion.So the imperial court often sent inspection envoys and observation envoys to various places.

Basically, a state capital, from the transshipment envoy, appeasement envoy, to general judgment, etc., all belong to the supervisor.It can be seen that the Song Dynasty was on guard against the localities.

In short, Lu Yizhou's power is mainly to supervise Zhu Yusun for the court.

He went to Luchuan with the army, and followed Zhu Yusun to Xuzhou after he was injured.

After that, I faintly sensed that something was wrong...

"Doctor Huang is here, did you find anything unusual?"

"Yes." Huang Suren put down the medicine box in his hand, and said: "The villain went to administer medicine to the wounded in the army today, and took the opportunity to ask some soldiers. One of them was on duty nearby when Zhu's comforter was attacked. "

Lu Yizhou leaned over and asked, "Did you ask?"

Huang Suren said: "At that time, after being knocked down, the comforter Zhu did not faint immediately, but fell into a coma after being helped into the tent by Li Xia."

"Sure?"

"Yes, that person clearly saw Comforter Zhu waving at Li Xia, as if saying he was fine."

Lu Yizhou looked pensive, and said: "So, when I went to see Zhu's appeasement, the smell I smelled was really anesthetic?"

Huang Suren seemed extremely determined, and said: "According to what the observation envoy said, it should be the drunk fairy peach, which is used to ensure that Zhu's comfort envoy is always in a coma."

Lu Yizhou narrowed his eyes, pondered for a while, and murmured: "So, Li Xia was also responsible for Wei Wenbo's death? This son has great ambitions."

Huang Suren was a little excited, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "As long as the observer reports to the court, there will be a big reward. Don't forget the villain's contribution."

"Report now? Are you looking for death? Just look inside and outside the city, who will those soldiers listen to? Don't show your face, in case Li Xia finds out."

"This... the villain knows."

Lu Yizhou took out a bag of money from his sleeve and handed it over, still thinking to himself.

"How can we take advantage of this matter to bring down Ding Daquan together? To fight against the treacherous party, Fang asked Qing Shi to leave a name... But Wei Wenbo is clearly also a Ding party, why did Li Xia even kill him?"

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Observation Envoy." A small official said, "Peace Envoy Zhu has woken up, please go over."

Lu Yizhou frowned, a little displeased.

He was discussing a secret matter, he didn't expect someone to get so close, he secretly scolded the servant for not keeping an eye on the gate, waved his hand, and asked Huang Suren to open the door...

~~
In the Tongjuan Mansion, Jiang Chun was having a lively conversation with Li Xia.

"Feiyu, you understand me. When I was the county magistrate, the county affairs could be entrusted to Zhengshu. Why? Trust. In my opinion, the most important thing for a magistrate is this trustworthy staff." tolerance……"

At this point, one of Li Xia's soldiers stepped forward and said, "Master Jiang, the leader of the Jiang team is here."

Li Xia turned to Jiang Chun and asked, "Go to uncle's study and talk, okay?"

Jiang Chun was taken aback, subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but still bit the bullet and said: "This is natural."

……

This study was where Wei Wenbo died, and Jiang Chun was reluctant to come in after that.

Thinking of moving to the state office in a while, I'm just too lazy to change places for the time being.

Not long after, Jiang Fan led two people over, each dragging a sack.

"You go down first... By the way, keep the gate of the courtyard."

"Yes."

Only then did Jiang Fan turn to Li Xia, and said, "The county magistrate, the matter was discovered by these two people."

"Inevitably, let it out."

The sack was torn off, and Lu Yizhou saw Li Xia sitting there.

Lu Yizhou was barefoot, with a pair of socks stuffed in his mouth, his eyes were full of horror, but also revealed some color of thought.

The moment Jiang Fan took off his socks, he suddenly said: "Lizhi County, don't kill me, I'll tell you some important things."

Before Li Xia could answer, Lu Yizhou immediately started talking.

"Ding Daquan will be dismissed soon..."
