Chapter 82

"...the previous disturbances were all caused by the offense committed by my subordinates. Knowing this clearly, I sent an officer in advance to give instructions before sending out the army.

The prime minister is in charge of the south of the Yangtze River, and the emperor personally promised him the power to make decisions. If he comes back with the people when he examines the heavens, he will do his best to promote the country.

If you are worried about enmity, you don't have to do it. The two countries are fighting for their own masters. It is not a personal enmity. I am willing to break an arrow with the Privy Council and swear to protect it.

If we delay to wait and see and do not welcome the surrender early, when the army arrives, we will have no regrets, but the Privy Council will think about it. "

Zhang Shijie put down the letter and asked, "How can Boyan say he is sincere?"

Suddenly he replied: "The Prime Minister said that if the Privy Council is interested, we can make an appointment to discuss it in detail."

"Insufficient sincerity." Zhang Shijie said lightly.

Suddenly he asked: "This trip is hasty. I have no proof. I don't know what the Privy Council means?"

"Unexpectedly, Boyan didn't dare to come to our army, so he had a detailed discussion outside the camp. How about each side bringing a hundred cavalry?" Zhang Shijie said.

Suddenly he came out and replied: "The Privy Councilor who loves teaching knows that it is not my decision to make the decision. I must report it to the Prime Minister for his decision."

"In that case, go and come back quickly." Zhang Shijie waved.

Hu Lachu looked at Yang Zhenlong and said, "Thank you Privy Council for not killing me. I just ask the Privy Council to tell you the name of the warrior. If you don't know, I won't be willing to die."

Next to him, Yang Zhenlong said unhappily: "How does a mere rabbit master have the right to know my grandpa's name? If you stay any longer, you don't have to leave!"

Suddenly, he was speechless. He bit his lips for a while, turned around and was led away by Zhang Wei with his eyes covered.

Finally Lu Wu couldn't bear it any longer, and asked, "Do you want to imitate Lu thief?"

Yang Zhenlong didn't say anything, but he also held the handle of the knife.

Zhang Shijie clicked on the table and said, "Bo Yan has a wishful thinking. I want to murder his head. Is that okay?"

Lu Wu was stunned for a moment, released the handle of the knife, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "The Prime Minister has always been determined, but now he changes easily. I'm afraid Boyan won't believe it."

Zhang Shijie said: "It's not enough to pity a defeated general. If Boyan falls into the trap, Jiangnan will be safe."

It was Zhang Shijie's whim to induce Boyan to confront him and kill him violently.

There were many good ministers and fierce generals in the Yuan Dynasty, but only two were able to command the Mongolian and Han armies, An Tong and Boyan. Now An Tong is restrained in the west by Haidu. If Boyan is gone, Kublai Khan may have to conquer it himself.

Yang Zhenlong said: "You can give it a try. If Boyan comes in person, I will commit suicide!"

"If you suddenly stab and turn back, you can prepare. If it goes away and never comes back, just give up." Zhang Shijie said.

Lu Wu could see the flaw, how could Boyan and others not see it?So Boyan got the reward and let Hu La go back to the camp to rest.

"The little emperor and below rely on the power of thunder and are stubborn and ineffective. Do you have any good strategies to defeat the enemy?" Boyan asked.

"Zhang Shijie is not stationing his troops forward, but he wants to trap and kill the prime minister. I think there are not many thunders in the sky, so I might want to explore it." Lu Wenhuan said: "The walls of Dongguan Post are short and the ditch is shallow. There are only [-] soldiers stationed there. We can send troops to attack. Look at Dongguan Post. The number of sky thunders can tell the reserves of sky thunders in Zhang Shijie’s tribe and even in Song Dynasty.”

"What the marshal said is reasonable, but how to attack the Dongguan Station needs to be carefully considered." Ta Chu said.

He was the general of Zhenguo, wearing a golden tiger talisman. He led the Huaixi expedition to Zhongshu to save trouble, and led the Huaixi army to follow Boyan southward.

The subtext of the tower is that using elites may cause too much damage, and using new auxiliary troops may explode with a thunder, which will not have the effect of testing.

Boyan and his group are still thinking hard about how to make progress, while Zhang Hongfan is also gnashing his teeth but there is nothing he can do.

He was on the mountain on the shore and could see the ships of the Song Army swimming at the mouth of the Qiantang River.

A ship sailing in from overseas saw the strange arrival of the Song ship and immediately turned around. However, Song ships surrounded it on the left and right, and the ship could not get rid of it. The sailors on board had their bows and arrows ready, but they did not dare to release.

These are government troops, and they are in the bay. How dare ordinary merchant ships attack them so easily?

Sun Tong and his companions rowed a fast boat to the nearby area and shouted: "Master Wang is here, how dare you surrender to the thieves?"

Someone on the boat replied: "Master, we returned from overseas and drove directly to Lin'an. How can we surrender to the bandits?" Sun Tong asked: "Where are you coming back from?"

The other party replied: "I have been waiting for one year and eight months to return from Tianzhu."

Sun Tong said: "Lin'an has been occupied by the Yuan Dynasties. The king's army is trying to recover. All ships, large and small, are prohibited from entering."

Probably because he didn't expect the world to change so quickly, the other party was silent for a long time before replying: "We are all from Lin'an, and the goods belong to the consort Yang Duwei. I hope the officials will be accommodating."

Sun Tong replied: "You can disembark at Huangyan or Tongzhou and sell the goods at market prices, or you can return home by land. In any case, no pieces of wood are allowed into Qiantang."

After a while, the ship turned around and headed overseas.

Not long after the boat left, a boat came out. Before Sun Tong could go up to speak, the other party had already released a small boat.

Sun Tong went up to meet it and found that it was the Liu family's ship that was forced back yesterday.

The leader on the boat said: "My lord, here is one hundred guan of money. Please check it."

Sun Tong was not afraid of plotting. He jumped over and checked carefully. After making sure it was correct, he carried the money back to the fleet. Then the fleet moved out of the way and signaled the other party to leave quickly.

On the bow of the ship, the deputy chief (captain) Xue Dahai said: "If you don't have a heavy responsibility, you must give him a good look!"

The leader of the group, Liu Hao, said: "Be silent and don't leak secrets."

Xue Dahai said: "There are all confidants on board, so why bother."

Liu Hao glared at him and said nothing.

On the flagship, Chen Shengxing was observing the situation on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and did not pay attention to the income of one hundred dollars.

Seeing that there were no flaws on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, Chen Shengxing stopped fighting. Counselor Wan Qing came up to him and said, "Commander, there are more than [-] ships in Lin'an, but this one is gone. There must be something fishy. Should we pursue it?"

"How can we win people's trust if we pursue them?" Chen Shengxing asked back, and then said: "In two days, I will lead the army north to inspect various places, and you and Sanlang will block the river mouth."

Sanlang Chen Shengzhong is his younger brother and the deputy commander of the fleet, and Wan Qing is also his childhood friend. The other captains are basically relatives and friends, and they really belong to a private fleet.

He had no choice but to bring the ship to join him and go to work with a negative salary. The court must allow him to appoint his relatives, friends and fellow villagers. Of course, these people are all making a living at sea, and they each have their own abilities and are worthy of trust.

They blocked the Qiantang River, but they could not offend all the ships in Lin'an City, so they collected a toll of [-] guan before letting them go.

Suddenly, a clipper ship appeared, and a warship immediately came to meet it. Even though the opponent was flying a Song flag, the guard ship was still watching eagerly.

A person on the bow of the boat shouted: "I am the Prime Minister of the Imperial Guard, Xie Shisan, and I am here with military orders."

Dai Bin, the captain of the guard ship, happened to know Xie Shisan, but he still shouted: "Stop the ship, check the seal, and check the secret seal."

Xie Shisan ordered the boat to stop, then passed by the boat and boarded the guard ship, showed his ID card and messenger seal, gave the password, and took out half of the bamboo stick.

Dai Bin confirmed that it was correct and sent Xie Shisan to the flagship.

It was delayed for half an hour, but Song Qi was not uncommon, and rebellion was not new. The procedures must be strictly followed.

The military order was in an envelope, with the lacquer and steel seal intact. The most important thing was the vertical outcrop in the middle of the mountain under the word "secret" in the "Privy Envoy Order". The last point of the word "order" was bent upward.

When I opened the envelope, I found that there was still a secret message inside, which the courier didn't know. It can be said that security work has been achieved to the extreme.

The privy envoy wanted to mobilize Tianlei, but Chen Shengxing could only hold back his opinions and immediately ordered Wan Qing to do it.

Before Wan Qing could speak, he only heard the horn blowing above his head. When he looked up, he saw the lookout hand waving the signal flag.

There are enemies approaching on the Qiantang River, with four hundred boats.

Naturally, the Yuan army couldn't bear the arrogance of blocking other people's doors to collect taxes, so they sent the navy to fight.
