Water Margin Survival

"If I was still bumping around in the rivers and lakes, people in Dongtou would not accept me, and people in Xitou would not accept me, how could I see such a scene!" Jiao Ting lay on the dusty parapet and looked out from a distance, expressing his heart. He sighed, "To be honest, I really didn't expect that one day I would be able to stand on the Miyagi of the Daming Mansion!"

"Look ahead!" Wang Lun smiled. .

Jiao Ting stared hard, but found that apart from the majestic Miyagi, there was only a thin mist in front of him, but he couldn't even see a person.

"Four hundred miles away is the Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo! If you can stand on the top of the Daming Mansion as a victor today, you may be able to stand on the gate of the Kaifeng Mansion in a few years' time!" Wang Lun sighed.

"Brother, didn't we have a foundation overseas, will we come back to fight against the faint king in the future?" Jiao Ting asked puzzled.Seeing this, Xiao Jiasui also looked at Wang Lun, he also wanted to know the future plan in the mind of the leader of the cottage.

"Ten years in Hedong, ten years in Hexi!" Wang Lun sighed.

More than a year ago, he was still struggling for his own survival, but in a blink of an eye, his goal has become to seek a future for the seventy or eighty brothers, sixty to seventy thousand soldiers and dependent people around him.In a few years, the golden man's iron hooves are about to go south. When the time comes, people will be devastated and the country will be in crisis. What position will I be in?

Seeing that Jiao Ting was ignorant at this moment, and Xiao Jiasui was thoughtful, Wang Lun turned his attention to Qiu Qi who had just been sent by Suo Chao and was still unconscious at this time. He did have some impressions, and he remembered that this person definitely belonged to the category of "good officials" in the eyes of the common people, and there was a special biography about him in Song History.

However, after all, Wang Lun is not a person who specializes in Song history, and he only remembers the outline of Qiu Qian's deeds, but he does not know the details.

What Wang Lun didn't know was that Qiu Qian spent most of his life as a local official close to the people.Wherever he went, he was deeply loved by the local people.In ancient times, the people paid respect to the resigned officials, and most of them gave them things like Wanmin umbrellas to express their hearts. However, when this Qiu Xian left office, he was forced to stop by the county by more than ten thousand people in the old place, and they all expressed their desire for him to stay in office. the meaning of.It can be seen that it is rare for him to be an official.

During the war and turmoil between the Song and Song Dynasties, local officials rarely had to perform in the military.Not only was Qiu Xian diligent in government and caring for the people, he also made great achievements in defending the land and defending the country, and he also had contact with two celebrities in the military circle at that time.

The first celebrity is Liu Guangshi, the long-legged general with a lot of water in the "Four Generals of ZTE". He was asked several times to burn the accumulation and give up Luzhou (Hefei), but he refused to carry out such reckless orders.Liu Guangshi was furious, and sent Zhang Qi to lead thousands of soldiers to Luzhou City, intending to force him to surrender, and fled together. , I shall die for my country! How can anyone escape before the Kou arrives!" Zhang Qi told him to calm down, and returned in dismay.Afterwards, Qiu summoned the defeated soldiers and militiamen to repel the enemy's invasion several times.

Not long after, the attack on Luzhou Puppet Qi (established by the Kingdom of Jin) intensified its invasion, and Wanyan Wushu personally led the Jin army as his successor. Appeared, Qiu Xian was overjoyed, and quickly contacted Niu Gao who was passing through the border. Niu Gao was no better than Liu Guangshi, and readily agreed. Finally beat back the enemy.Afterwards, Qiu Xian was added to Huiyou Pavilion for meritorious service.The imperial edict was sent back to the imperial court, and the soldiers and civilians wept to see each other off.

Although he didn't know much about the details of Qiu Xian's future life, such a good official, who was still so young at this time, happened to run into Wang Lun's hands, how could he not be tempted?Just listening to the news repeatedly reported by Tang Bin and Lin Chong, Wang Lun fell into deep thought for a moment.

"Brother, thanks to Lu Yuanwai and Yan Xiaoyi, the matter of raising carts is settled! At this time, the whole city can put on carts for livestock, and we asked us to buy them with a grain premium. In addition, we ordered four or five carts in the city. Hundreds of large vehicles, in time for the construction period, can be delivered before the early morning of the day after tomorrow. In case we use it in rotation on the road!" Xu Guanzhong, who came in a hurry, took three steps at a time, and stepped forward to report with a smile on his face. good news.

Wang Lun was overjoyed when he heard that, and said, "Have you even bought the animals?" Although the Liangshan army had seized tens of thousands of horses in Daming Mansion this time, these animals had never pulled carts before, and it would take time to get used to them. At this time, what Wang Lun lacked most was time. It would be better to buy the cooked animals, and pay the bill with grain anyway.When these animals arrived in Liangshan, they were still useful, and they were another fortune.

"I bought them all, and they were sent to the granary by Lu Yuanwai and Xiao Yi when I was young!" Xu Guanzhong clasped his hands.

"Good job! Well done!" Wang Lun praised, "In this way, according to our previous agreement, these carts will be divided into ten teams to fill up with grain, and transport them to the next ten counties. It is best to go directly to the village. The 3000 river workers, each team of [-] people, transported back and forth, and asked Yang Zhi, Tang Bin, and Zhang Qing to manage three or four teams each to ensure safety along the way and make publicity. Single person, or whole family, just accept it!"

Xiao Jiasui nodded and said: "Recruiting soldiers still has to go down to the village as their home. The children of tenants can endure hardships and know their superiors and inferiors! Practical, it can be called the cornerstone of my future elite soldiers!"

Xu Guanzhong laughed, and said: "Brother Xiao's remarks are a bit one-sided. What's wrong with our city men? It seems that Han Shizhong next to my brother was born in the market. I think he is rough on the outside and thin on the inside. He has the style of a general. When he patrolled the market, the common people all spoke well of him, it can be said that he is well-organized!"

Seeing Xiao Jiasui and Xu Guanzhong talking about the advantages and disadvantages of urban soldiers and rural soldiers, Wang Lun said with a smile: "The men who grew up in the market have wide knowledge and flexible minds; the children of tenants grew up from hardships, and they are tenacious and strong in execution! In my opinion , Each has its own advantages, each has its own advantages, or match it! I dare say, as long as they have been in Liangshan for more than a year, I can guarantee that they are all good soldiers!" As long as soldiers have a "soul", they can It is not something that ordinary opponents can defeat, but because of Wang Lun's arrival, Liang Shanbo has a great innate advantage, that is, he can shape the soul of soldiers for ordinary soldiers.Therefore, regardless of urban soldiers or rural soldiers, as long as they go to Liangshan, Wang Lun has the confidence to train them into qualified soldiers.

Seeing Wang Lun and the mud, Xu Guanzhong and Xiao Jiasui shook their heads and laughed, Wang Lun also laughed for a while before stopping, and said to Xiao Jiasui: "The He Gonghe in Xiaxian County will send food, recruit soldiers and the people, and leave it to Xiao Da. Officials, Yang Zhi, Tang Bin, and Zhang Qing's three battalions are at your disposal. But pay attention to the time, before tomorrow evening, no matter what, we must bring back all the river workers and civilians who are willing to go back to the village with our army!"

"Big brother, don't worry, little brother will definitely do his best, and won't dare to neglect at all!" Xiao Jiasui clasped his fists and said.

Wang Lun nodded to him very reassuringly, and said to Xu Guanzhong: "The diplomats of the city have been handed over to Mr. Xiao, and Guanzhong will be entrusted to the inside of the city. There are 5000 river laborers leaving the city to transport grain to the county, and there are more than [-] left , I will leave it all to you! In these two days, you have to take all the military weapons in Jiazhan’s warehouse, the stolen silver, stolen silver, furniture, the raw silk, silk, silk and satin in the warehouse, as well as the palace. Pack up all the valuables in the city, and when Mr. Xiao brings the cart back, you will bring people to load it! In the morning of the next day, all the people who were captured and thrown into the mountains will be pulled back with the infantry ahead of time. Mountain! Coach Lin’s Panshi Battalion is at your disposal!"

"No problem! Leave it to my younger brother!" Xu Guanzhong said confidently.

Everything is arranged, and the only remaining problem is the mountain-like grain and grass in the granary.To be honest, Wang Lun is not willing to give up the grain of more than 270 million shi. Unfortunately, the grain is converted into units of later generations, with a total weight of more than 16 tons, which means that at least 100 vehicles with a load capacity of more than [-] tons are required The Dongfeng trucks transported from Damingfu to Jeju (excluding the more than [-] million shi of grain distributed, the rest weighed at least [-] to [-] tons). Obviously, under the current situation, this amount of wartime transportation, is difficult to do.

After thinking about this section clearly, Wang Lun said again: "In addition, in addition to the grain and grass distributed to the people, there are still more than 100 million shi left. In this way, Guan Zhong, you go and invite Lu Yuan to come out and see whether it is sold or exchanged. Exchange this batch of grain for gold and silver or goods. You can discuss the specific situation. My opinion is that it is best to exchange for gold and silver. If it is difficult, take a step back and try to exchange for light weight and high value commodities! Breakable items like pottery and the like are fine, I don’t know how difficult the journey is, don’t go to the cottage, there will be a pile of fragments left!”

"I'll go tell Mr. Lu right now! He is the number one rich man in Hebei, so these things should be nothing to worry about!" Xu Guanzhong laughed. After speaking, Xu Guanzhong and Xiao Jiasui nodded. Miyagi.

"Ming people don't do secret things! Qiu County Prime Minister, when do you want to hear?" Wang Lun looked at Qiu Qian who was lying on the stretcher, and suddenly said.Just now Jiao Ting noticed that this person was abnormal, and whispered a few words to Wang Lun on the way.

Qiu Xian sighed and sat up slowly.After all, it is a courageous and insightful person who even has a biography in the history books. Although he is trapped in the enemy camp at this time, he has no fear on his face. He looks at Wang Lun and said: "Master Wang, I have admired you for a long time!"

"I can't think of a mere name, but I can't be called Cheng Wenzhi of Qiu County!" Wang Lun laughed.

"Wang Zhaizhu doesn't keep secrets, it seems that Qiu's life is not long!" Qiu Xian said slowly, "Just before dying, can I ask Zhaizhu a few words?"

"Please speak! Xiao Ke must know everything and say everything!" It would be easy for this person to speak, and he would be afraid that he would have no desires or desires, and would die silently, Wang Lun thought.

"Thank you!" Qianqiu stood up and adjusted his official uniform, and said solemnly, "Dare to ask the village master's ambition, is it like Huang Chao?" (To be continued.)
