At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the competition for the deer in the world

Chapter 63 Haozhou Scholars, Trouble in the General’s Mansion

Since entering the big tent, Cheng De's eyes suddenly darkened.

"Didn't catch Zhou Qisan?" Cheng De narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Yang Lian.

Yang Lian shuddered when he heard the words, and quickly knelt down and said, "Forgive me, General!"

Seeing this, Cheng De's eyes were covered with a layer of melancholy that was as light as smoke.

"What's going on?" Cheng De frowned.

Yang Lian quickly replied: "The Yuan army in Andong Prefecture supported Qingjiang."

Cheng De was taken aback, "You said it was the Yuan army from An Dongzhou?"

"That's right. If it weren't for the sudden support of the Yuan Army of Andong Prefecture, General Feng Pian would have taken Qingjiang long ago. And his subordinates wanted to send people to sneak into Qingjiang City, but they didn't expect that Qingjiang City would have been in this city since He Dadu After that battle, the gates of the city have been closed tightly. Therefore, the people of Jueshengwei can't get in at all." Yang Lian lowered his head and looked at the ground.

Cheng De looked at Yang Lian kneeling in front of him, and his face began to soften, "Get up! It's not your problem that this matter didn't get done."

"Yes, thank you, General!" Yang Lian said happily.

Cheng De was silent, while Yang Lian kept his head down and remained silent.

After a while.

"That is to say, Feng Guoyong hasn't captured Qingjiang yet." Cheng De glanced at Yang Lian calmly.

"No." Yang Lian answered simply.

Cheng De thought for a while, "How many people did the Yuan army in Andong Prefecture send to support Qingjiang?"

"According to Jueshengwei's investigation, there are at least 2 people." Yang Lian replied.

"That's it—" Cheng De's tone was deep and dragged on for a while.

There was a long silence in the field.

"Did Feng Guoyong ask you to bring anything?" Cheng De suddenly looked at Yang Lian.

Yang Lian shook his head.

"Since that's the case, let's not fight this battle for now! Send Jueshengwei to remind Feng Guoyong to keep an eye on the Qingjiang Yuan army. As for the future, let him see what to do!" Cheng De said.

Yang Lian nodded: "Yes, this subordinate will go now!"

"Slow!" Cheng De glanced at Yang Lian.

Yang Lian shifted his gaze to Cheng De, lowered his eyes slightly, and waited for Cheng De's next words.

"Tell Feng Guoyong that if he wants to capture Qingjiang City in the future, no matter what, he must not flood it with water. Flooding is absolutely not advisable. Once flooded, I don't know how many people's families will be destroyed. Even if Qingjiang is captured by then, I'm afraid It also chilled the hearts of the people in Qingjiang. Therefore, this Qingjiang can only be planned slowly, not hastily." Cheng De had a stern tone and looked at Yang Lian.

Yang Lian nodded bravely, bowed and replied, "Yes, this subordinate will definitely bring this to Feng Pianjiang."

Cheng De glanced at Yang Lian with satisfaction, "Originally, I wanted to wait for Feng Guoyong to take down Qingjiang before returning to Sizhou City. But now, I want to return to Sizhou City ahead of schedule. You have to take good care of this side of Huai'an Road." Cooperate with Li Dingguo and Li Pianjiang. Remember, let Jueshengwei secretly send more people, and be sure to protect Li Dingguo and He Sanwu. Also, in addition to sending me a copy of all the news on Huai'an Road, you need to copy a copy and leave it to Li Dingguo ,do you understand?"

Yang Lian said solemnly: "Yes, this subordinate has remembered. This subordinate will definitely cooperate with General Li!"

Cheng De no longer looked at Yang Lian, but shifted his gaze to the outside of the big tent, "Yang Zhongkai, I will say hello and promote you to Jueshengwei Qianhu, responsible for inquiring about news on Huai'an Road."

Yang Lian came to his senses and hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, "My subordinates are very grateful for the promotion of the general, and are willing to serve the general with their lives!"

Cheng De took a few steps forward, glanced at Yang Lian, "Do well."

Afterwards, Cheng De didn't care about Yang Lian anymore, but returned to his big tent.

Just entered the big account.

Fang Ming and his party got up quickly, bowed and saluted, "Greetings, General!"

Cheng De nodded: "Get up! I have something to tell you."

Fang Ming and others turned their attention to Cheng De.

"I will return to Sizhou City in two days." Cheng De looked around at the crowd.

Everyone's hearts were shocked, and they held their breath.

"Master Fang!" Cheng De clicked on Fang Ming and said.

"The students are here!" Fang Ming replied.

"One, Sapphire, I will keep him and follow you for two years to gain some knowledge. I hope you can watch him carefully and be strict with him. If he dares to refute or talk back on weekdays, just say it was my order." .” Cheng De looked at Fang Ming.

Fang Ming hesitated, but still nodded, "Yes."

In Fang Ming's view, it was just teaching a student.

There should be no problem.

There is no problem with what the general said.

"Second, after I left Huai'an City, Master Fang and everyone else must cooperate with Li Dingguo and General Li Pian. Especially the salt fields on Huai'an Road belong to our Sizhou Army. You need to understand. No matter who it is, if anyone stretches out their hand here, they will all break his hand." Cheng De looked around at the crowd, and then locked his eyes on Fang Ming.

Fang Ming didn't hesitate: "Yes."

The rest of the people also nodded.

"In addition, I will send some people over after I return to Sizhou City for the control of the locust plague in Huai'an City. You all have to follow their wishes, because their wishes are my wishes." Cheng De looked faintly. All the people present said.

Everyone hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, we will obey the order!"

"In the end, the government affairs of Huai'an City will fall on you. I hope you all keep in mind that matters involving the people must be treated well. You must not be lazy or slack in government. Let me tell you that everything you do in Huai'an City Because, even if I am in Sizhou City, I will know immediately." Cheng De's tone was a bit chilly.

Everyone looked at each other, and felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts.

"I will follow the general's instruction!" Fang Ming and others bowed their heads and replied.

"That's all there is to say. Keep busy!" After Cheng De said this, he walked straight out of the big tent, left the barracks, and walked towards Ma Xiuying's courtyard.

In the blink of an eye, it was sunset.

Haozhou City.

On the street, four scholars dressed as scholars entered a restaurant at random, ordered a few small dishes, pulled off the lid of the wine, and began to drink in small sips.

One of the scholars surnamed Li said: "Only a few days later, the news came that General Zhenglu agreed to reopen the imperial examination. Wouldn't it be easy for me to be a well-educated scholar?"

However, another scholar surnamed Wei looked worried, "Do you think this General Zhenglu will agree to reopen the imperial examination?"

The scholar surnamed Han heard the words, and then said: "I must agree! After all, Master Li and Master Lu are the people most trusted by General Zhenglu. They proposed to reopen the imperial examination together, and General Zhenglu will definitely agree. Yes. However, I am more worried that General Zhenglu may not only require us to take a written test, but may also have to try bow and arrow, after all, General Zhenglu himself is—”

When the scholar surnamed Han said this, he paused.

The last scholar surnamed He said coldly: "General Zhenglu, you don't dare to offend us scholars. Otherwise, who will govern the territories he laid down? Do you have to rely on those mud legs?"

What the scholar surnamed He said made the other three people unhappy.

They all thought to themselves: Tsk, it was just that they were reincarnated into a wealthy family, and they looked down on mud-legged people like this. Counting generations, whose ancestors are not mud-legged.

The scholar surnamed He noticed the atmosphere in the field, but he didn't say anything, just kept a cold face and remained silent.

The rest of the people felt that they were bored, so they drank the boring wine cup by cup and poured it directly into their stomachs.

at this time.

Another scholar entered the hotel.

"The latest news: whether the imperial examination will be reopened, General Zhenglu's answer, we will know soon, the people sent by General Zhenglu have arrived in Haozhou City."

As soon as these words came out, the scholars in the hotel suddenly stood up.

"Come on, let's go to the General's Mansion to meet Master Lu and Master Li!" one of the scholars said.

"Go! Then go together!"

"It's finally here, God help me, the imperial examinations are expected to resume!"

A group of people all headed towards the general's mansion in Haozhou.

They all can't wait to know whether the imperial examination will be reopened.

If it is reopened, they will definitely be able to display their talents and learning.

Moreover, this General Zhenglu is widely known as General Renyi in the word of mouth of the scholars.

It is also the ideal protagonist they want to rely on.

It didn't take long.

These scholars gathered outside the General's Mansion one after another, shouting: "We want to see Master Li and Master Lu!"

As for an office room in the General's Mansion, it was a different story.
