Reborn Wu Dalang

Chapter 80 Tian Hu 1

Tong Guan has been staying in Chang'an City for 3 days, and he is extremely anxious. This day, the teacher finally arrives.Zhong Shidao was originally stationed in the Yuanzhou area of ​​Ningxia. Hearing about this, he hurriedly mobilized [-] elite troops to Chang'an.

"Master Tong, what's going on? Why was the [-] army defeated by the enemy?" This was the first question Zhong Shidao asked when he saw Tong Guan.

He really couldn't believe it in his heart, and felt that it was impossible.An army of [-], let alone grass bandits, even the Xixia people are hard to defeat.But Tong Guan came to report that it was the grass bandits who defeated the [-] army.

There is only one thought in Zhongshidao's mind - how is this possible?

"My lord, the thieves are rampant, and there is nothing I can do about it." Tong Guan said.

"How many grass bandits are there?" Zhong Shidao asked.

"About... 10 people?" Tong Guan hesitated and said.

"10 people? Master Tong, do you still tell lies in front of me?" Zhong Shidao asked.

There were grass bandit organizations with 10 people, not in the Song Dynasty, there were so many people in Hebei Tianhu and Huaixi Wangqing, but it is basically impossible to bring so many people from a distance to Huashan.Zhong Shidao knew the virtues of those grassroots bandits. They must have burned, killed and looted along the way.

Zhong Shidao also understood that Tong Guan must be trying to alleviate his guilt, so he exaggerated the number of grassroots bandits.In this case, even if you lose, it is justifiable.

Tong Guan remained silent, Zhong Shidao frowned, looked at Feng Mei beside him, and said, "Feng Mei, tell me, how many grassroots are there?"

Feng Mei is Tong Guan's confidant, but he is also a subordinate of the Northwest Economic and Strategic Envoy, so he naturally dare not disobey the order of Zhong Shidao, he looked at Tong Guan, and said hesitantly: "There are about 1 people. "

"What? About 1 people? Can 1 people beat you?" Zhong Shidao was taken aback again.

Feng Mei had already fought her way out, and said, "That's true. That's the number of grassroots bandits."

Feng Mei also fought many times with the Xixia people in the Northwest. He is considered a well-known general in the Northwest. Although his ability to train and use troops is not as good as those in Liangshan, he still has a good eye and will not misjudge the number of enemies.

"Tell me about how you were defeated by ten thousand grass bandits?" Zhong Shidao said with a gloomy expression.

How did Fengmei encircle Huayin City with the Liangshan army at the moment, how did they send 5000 people to rescue, but the whole army was wiped out, and then they sent Hu Yanzhuo's 3000 serial horses to rescue, but the whole army was also wiped out.Later, thousands of people were sent, but the whole army was also wiped out.

"You have fallen into the enemy's scheme!" Zhong Shidao said with hatred.

"But we have to save Huayin City? If we don't save it, how will we explain to the court?" Tong Guan argued.

"Even if you save Huayin City, you don't have to go up to die one after another? Bi Sheng's 5000 people were wiped out. You should have noticed something wrong at that time, and even sent Hu Yanzhuo to bring 3000 people to rescue. After the army was annihilated, you actually sent thousands of people?" Zhong Shidao said in a scolding tone.

He has the same official position as Tong Guan, and Tong Guan is the emperor's confidant. In the past, he was very polite to Tong Guan, but this time Tong Guan killed [-] troops, which made him unbearable, so his tone became worse.

"The 5000 people led by Bi Sheng never came back. We thought they were going to hunt down the grass bandits... Mr. Zhong, what would you do if it were you? Under such circumstances, do you believe that the grass bandits can be wiped out?" 5000 officers and soldiers?" Tong Guan asked rhetorically.

This... Zhong Shidao frowned and said: "Then you should use your troops with caution."

The two quarreled for a while, but they stopped talking about this issue. Zhong Shidao said again: "Even if the grassroots use tricks, but after all, there are only 1 people, it is impossible to defeat you?"

Tong Guan said impatiently: "My lord, you haven't seen those grass bandits. They are all extremely fierce, much more fierce than the Northwest Army trained by your Zhong family, and much more fierce than the Xixia people. Even if you meet head-on, None of us are rivals."

Master Zhong said: "This is impossible? Mr. Tong, you are not trying to shirk your responsibility, so you say that?"

Childishly speechless, Feng Mei over there said: "My lord, we really didn't lie to you. Over the past few days, routs have come back one after another. These routs were trained by you yourself. You Go ask them and see what they say."

Zhong Shidao frowned, he actually went out to inquire about those rout soldiers, how many generals among the rout soldiers were direct descendants of the Zhong family, after the inquiry, it was as Tong Guan and Feng Mei said, the bandit soldiers were very powerful, in terms of combat effectiveness Under the Northwest Army, it is even possible to surpass it.

"Where is this grass bandit? If there is such a powerful grass bandit, it should have laid a huge territory long ago, and it is widely known to the world. Why have I never heard of it?" Zhong Shidao thought with some worry.

He didn't know that although Liangshan was powerful, it didn't develop in the country. Instead, it went to Koryo to grab the territory. Naturally, there were fewer people in the country who knew about it.

"Master Zhong, what do you think we should do now?" Tong Guan and Feng Mei came to Zhong Shidao and asked.

"I'll take my troops to Huashan to see if there are any bandits. This matter must be reported to the imperial court immediately," Zhong said.

"My lord... I will write this memorial, and you will sign it." Tong Guan stammered.

"Okay!" Zhong Shidao readily agreed.

When Tong Guan wrote the memorial, he naturally tried his best to exaggerate the number of thieves and reduce his charges.The reason why Zhong Shidao wanted to help Tong Guan was mainly because he and Tong Guan had cooperated very well over the years. Although Tong Guan was the supervisor of the army, he did not overwhelm him.If another supervising army came and messed up the Northwest, the gain would outweigh the loss.

In Bianliang City, Song Huizong went crazy when he got the news.In Tong Guan's memorial, Song Jiang was described as the greatest thief in the world, with hundreds of thousands of subordinates.The reason why Song Jiang escaped this time was because those hundreds of thousands of subordinates came to rescue him.

Sitting in the palace, the emperor could only write and paint, and appreciate flowers and stones.Originally he was interested in beauties, but after being eunuched, he was no longer interested in beauties, and was particularly interested in cultivating Taoism. Every day he fantasized about being able to ascend to immortality.As for things in the mundane world, he is now interested in Song Jiang and wants to kill Song Jiang to avenge himself.He doesn't understand the art of war, he doesn't know the general trend of the world, he will believe whatever Tong Guan says.He actually believed that Song Jiang had hundreds of thousands of subordinates, and he was a confidant of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Song Jiang is wanted all over the country... Collect the power of the whole country, we must destroy Song Jiang!" Song Huizong said viciously.

"But...Your Majesty, where did Song Jiang go?" Gao Qiu asked.

"Check! Keep checking for me! Even if he hides in the remotest corners of the world, he must be found and his body cut into pieces!" Song Huizong no longer had any teeth, but he still said "gritting his teeth".

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange it right away," Gao Qiu said.

In fact, Gao Qiu knew that Tong Guan was lying to the emperor. He also studied Song Jiang's details. He knew that Song Jiang's subordinates were only a few thousand people. How could there be tens of thousands of people?Tong Guan must be incapable of letting Song Jiang go, and now he is saying this to shirk responsibility.It's a pity that Tong Guan's status in the emperor's heart is higher than his, so he doesn't say anything and can only follow the order.

Song Huizong wanted Song Jiang all over the country, not to mention this.

In Weisheng City, Tian Hu is also mad with anger now.

He was originally just a hunter in the mountains, but five years ago he set up an army to occupy the land of the five prefectures.Two years ago, he called himself King Jin and was ambitious, thinking that the world belonged to him.

However, after becoming the "King of Jin", his life began to become more luxurious. He built a huge palace and recruited countless beauties and concubines. He has almost stayed in the palace for the past two years. Too much has also become weak, and now there are huge dark circles under the eyes, the body is a little thin, and he walks unsteadily.

Although there are many beauties and concubines, he has only one son, that is Tian Shi, who was named the Prince of Jin by him.

Tian Shi has been missing for many days, and Tian Hu's subordinates have been inquiring about Tian Shi's news, and finally found Tian Shi's body in Puzhou.

Today the corpse was placed in front of Tian Hu. Tian Hu clenched his teeth and clenched his fists, and suddenly fell to the ground with a "bang", and passed out.

"Hurry up and save the king." A concubine hurriedly helped Tian Hu up, and said anxiously.

At that moment, an "imperial doctor" came to take Tian Hu's pulse and treat him. After a long time, Tian Hu woke up leisurely.

Tian Hu was very sad in his heart, his only son was gone, and he felt that life was meaningless.Even if you have laid down Huahua Jiangshan, but no one inherits it, what's the point?

"Did you find out?" Tian Hu asked a little weakly.

"Brother, I only know that he was killed outside Puzhou City... I don't know exactly who killed the prince." Tian Hu's younger brother Tian Bao whispered.

"Bastard!" Tian Hu cursed angrily, and Tian Bao's body trembled a little.

Tian Bao was terrified of his brother.Five years ago, when Tian Hu was Orion, he cared for him very much. At that time, he thought Tian Hu was a good brother.However, since Tian Hu became the king of Jin, his temperament has become more and more tyrannical. Even if he is a relative, if he disagrees with him, he will kill him without hesitation, and usually he dies extremely cruelly.Even if it is his younger brother, he dare not say a wrong word in front of his elder brother, otherwise he will die.

"Call out heavy troops immediately, I want to attack Puzhou Mansion!" Tian Hu thought for a while and said.

"Ah?" Tian Bao was taken aback, and said, "Brother, please think again! The Puzhou Mansion is unusual, and there are so many soldiers!"

In the territory of Hedong, there are two cities with more than [-] troops stationed, one is the famous Taiyuan City, and the other is Puzhou Prefecture.

The reason why there are many troops stationed in Taiyuan City is mainly to prevent the Liao people from going south, and the reason why there are many troops stationed in Puzhou Prefecture is because Puzhou Prefecture is the source of income of the Song Dynasty.

There is a salt pond in Puzhou Prefecture, known as "Jie Pond", which is the most famous salt pond in Chinese history.The table salt produced here is called "Lu salt". In the ancient Yao and Shun era, human beings fished for natural crystal salt in it.In the Qin and Han Dynasties, the salt here has been famous all over the world, "from Qinlong in the west, Fandeng in the south, Yan Dynasty in the North Pole, and Zhou Song Dynasty in the east".

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the annual income of the whole country was 1200 million guan, and the salt tax here reached 150 million guan.In the Northern Song Dynasty, the salt tax here reached a historical peak, accounting for one-sixth of the fiscal revenue of the Great Song Dynasty. Many important officials in the Northern Song Dynasty once presided over the salt affairs here. Shi's identity also served as the transfer envoy of salt affairs in Hedong Yanchi, and presided over the salt affairs.In the Yuan Dynasty, the only salt transportation city (Shanxi Yuncheng) in Chinese history was established here.Throughout the dynasties, a total of 39 emperors came to Yanchi here to worship the god of the pond, including Tang Taizong, Qing Kangxi and other famous emperors.

In the fourth year of Chongning, the salt industry here was very prosperous. In order to thank the protection of the god of the salt lake, Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty granted the god of Dongchi as Zibaogong and the god of Xichi as Huikanggong.In the second year of Daguan, he became the king again, and renovated and enshrined the Yanchichi Temple here.

This place is so important, so it is natural to garrison heavy troops, so Tian Bao was startled when he heard that Tian Hu was going to attack Puzhou Mansion, and hurriedly stopped him.
