Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 402 Recruit Song Gongming

Yanshun was very emotional.It was as if he saw Song Gongming's painful face again.He dared to guarantee in his heart that Song Jiang was for Da Song.

After reporting on the Chen family's father and son outside the city of Yangzhou that day, Yan served for the Song army in Yangzhou by the way. With the merit of the report and his fairly good skills, he emerged in a series of battles and served as a commander under Lu Yirou's command. .But he didn't forget Song Jiang, and he didn't forget the painful appearance of Song Jiang when he decided to surrender to Liangshan Army.

Song Jiang was really "forced to go to Liangshan" that day.It is true that those who have been cheated by Wang Shizhong cannot turn over.

"Brother Gongming's sins were all imposed by Wang Shizhong! All he thought about was the Song Dynasty." Yan Shun knelt on the ground and did not see the eyes of Lu Yirou, the comfort envoy of Huainan East Road and the prefect of Yangzhou, flashing. .

He was worrying about the current situation, and he didn't want Yan Shun to come up with such a plan for him.Although this guy is annoying to teach people, he actually called a traitor to be his brother when he was in the army. The traitor is hard to change.But if Song Jiang can really be recruited and surrendered, and he is asked to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, the situation in Huainan will be reversed.

Lu Yirou couldn't help but laugh, stood up, paced back and forth, her thoughts fluctuating.

The day before yesterday, although Liang Shanjun stopped in Gaoyou, the situation in Yangzhou was still dangerous.With the help of Yang Zhizhi, Chen Guan and his gang in Taizhou regained their momentum, and now they have seized the entire Tongzhou-Nantong, and went to the land near the sea in the north of the Yangtze River.It can be said that only Yangzhou and Zhenzhou [later Liuhe] can be controlled by the Song Dynasty on the huge Huainan East Road.

To make matters worse, the Manicheean rebel army on the other side of the Yangtze River was also fierce. After breaking through Suzhou, they went down to Changzhou and Runzhou, and their troops had already pushed into Jinling.The latter is the No.1 county in the southern country, and its status is much more important than Yangzhou.Liu Menglong's department is currently unable to take care of the north bank of the river at all, and the war in the south of the Yangtze River has made him burnt out.

However, although the court officials and army have won consecutive victories in Huaixi, it is still some time before Wang Qing is completely wiped out.It is even farther away from when the army is drawn out to help Huainan and Jiangnan.

Regardless of whether it is out of public or selfish intentions, Lu Yirou must stick to Yangzhou until the imperial army destroys Wang Qing and marches south.

He didn't think that the Western Army would go straight to Qilu after destroying the two thieves Wang Qing and Tian Hu.

It wasn't that he was very confident, nor that he knew Zhao Ji's temperament like the back of his hand, but that he just thought it was unwise to go straight to Liangshan.I have a deeper understanding of the importance of the two cities of Yangzhou and Jinling.As long as these two cities are still in the hands of the imperial court, there is a big mountain between Liangshan Army and Fang La Army.

The importance of Jinling City does not need to be said. Everyone knows what this city means to the Southern Kingdom.The theory of Dragon Qi is ridiculous, but its political influence is beyond doubt.

And what about Yangzhou City?It is the node where the north and south of the canal blend together.Only from the practical point of view, the Song Dynasty held Yangzhou in its hands, which had a more negative impact on the relationship between Liangshan Army and Fang La Army than Jinling.

——Yangzhou is not allowed, and the canal cannot be directly connected between Liangshan Army and Fang La Army.

But it was also because of this that Lu Yirou felt anxious about the future.How could the traitor not see what he could think of?

Lu Yirou intends to strengthen Yangzhou's military strength, but what about money and food?Huainan East Road is not Jiangnan East Road, nor Liangzhe Road.Even though Yangzhou City is very prosperous, compared to this fight, their wealth is still stretched.

Moreover, when Gao Qiu raised his troops to conquer Liangshanbo, Yang Wen and Xiang Yuanzhen sent soldiers and horses all the way from Huainan, and soldiers and horses all the way passed through Huainan. Wealth, now Lu Yirou really doesn't have enough food and money.

"Yan Shun." Lu Yirou made up his mind.

"The little guy is here."

"The matter of recruiting Song Gongming is very important. If he can return to the court, he will have great achievements in today's situation. You can take my life card and go to Haozhou in person. If you can facilitate this, it will be a great achievement for the country. The community has made great contributions. I will reward you with great rewards." Lu Yirou got up and walked to a large map, pressing the land of Haozhou and Sizhou with his palm.

"If this is done, not only will the places such as Haozhou and Sizhou occupied by Song Jiang's army be returned to the imperial court, but the pressure on Huainan West Road will also be suddenly relieved. In this way, I will be able to help me with money and food, and Yangzhou will have no worries. .And Songjiang is close to Xuzhou, and his army can reach Xuzhou's vital points with a counterattack..." He moved his palm lightly again, and the entire Pengcheng was covered by Lu Yirou's big hand.

Yan Shun wandered from Qingzhou to Yangzhou City, and he was no longer the ignorant bandit king of the past.When he heard Xuzhou, he knew what Lu Yirou was referring to.The palm that pressed down was not Pengcheng itself, the governor of Xuzhou, but the Liguojian in the northeast.

The latter is one of the last iron-producing areas in the north of the Yangtze River. Shenzong had 36 rulers and 4000 smelters on a large scale.With the retreat of officials and the advancement of the people, Li Guojian and the beginning of Zhenghe, there may not be tens of thousands of miners and blacksmiths.Although after the Liangshan army broke through Xuzhou, many people were scattered there, but now the Liangshan army has re-managed Tieshan there, and the population has rejuvenated.

The number of prisoners of war in the hands of the latter can be tens of thousands.During these days, they were driven by the Liangshan Army as coolies to repair river embankments, repair roads, and restore Laiwu Prison and Liguo Prison.There is also the so-called Gold and Silver Division.

The Liangshan bandits set up a gold and silver division in the northeast of Laizhou and sent tens of thousands of prisoners of war and thousands of locals to dig for gold and silver.

It is said that new windmills, hydraulic equipment, and large blast furnaces were introduced, making steel production more abundant than in the past.It continuously provided refined iron for steelmaking to the Liangshan rebels.

Song Jiang's counterattack, even if he can't really destroy the Liguo prison, and can't hurt Liang Shanbo's muscles and bones, it will still scare Yang Zhi and tell him to raise his troops to turn around, and the pressure on Yangzhou will be greatly reduced.So Song Jiang also made a great contribution.

"Such meritorious service is all in his mind." Lu Yirou looked at Yanshun seriously.The latter naturally understood the meaning, and hurriedly bowed his head and said: "The villain understands, the villain understands. I must ask Brother Gongming to relieve the adults' worries."

"Go and tell Song Gongming that if he is willing to return to the court, I will guarantee him the position of defense envoy of the state." Lu Yirou was very happy, and the official position given him was generous.The position of the defense envoy in this state is not low.It’s considered a mini-military zone boss.

Lu Yirou continued: "Nowadays there are frequent reports of success in the imperial army's conquest from the north to the south, and the two thieves Wang Qing and Tian Hu will be cut off in a short time. At that time, the army will converge and penetrate the south of the Yangtze River, and Fang La will be at rest. In this way, only the Liangshan bandits are left in the world. Can you still turn the world around?"

"You can not forget the old meaning, recommend Song Jiang at this moment, and Song Jiang's position is of great importance. The teacher cannot accept it. This is God's will. It is the best choice for Song Gongming to abandon the dark and turn to the bright right now. It is the most timely. Tell him not to Self mistake."

Lu Yirou was a capable minister, and Yan Shun was deeply convinced by what he said, from far to near, from deep to shallow, and it was also very clear.

After all, this world is the world of Song Dynasty.Song Jiang, why don't you take advantage of this great opportunity to cleanse yourself and come ashore, when will you wait?Is it possible to follow the Liangshan bandit all the way to the dark?

Today, Huainan East and West Roads both pay attention to you.

Your current position/status matters.Returning to the embrace of the imperial court, as far as Huainan is concerned, it is a great thing for both parties to benefit from cooperation.They can be called through.This is a great contribution to state ownership.But don't hold yourself back, if you miss the good opportunity, it will never come again.Don't delay your own future.

As for the final meaning of this sentence, Lu Yirou showed her strength.Maybe it was due to inertia, or maybe it was his deep contempt for Song Jiang in his heart.How could a mere county official get into the eyes of a local official from the imperial court who was a Jinshi?Even if Song Jiang wanted to appease him, he could only focus on him.The master-slave status of the two cannot be confused.

Jinmaohu didn't think there was anything wrong.

In the Song Dynasty, wasn't it just like this between civilian officials and military officials, and between the government and the bandits?
Lu Yirou's last words were a bit harsh, but the previous experience made it clear that it is of great significance to appease Song Jiang.Song Jiang's surrender was a good thing that served multiple purposes.

"Yan Shun is a big man and dares to be a guarantor in front of his husband. Brother Gongming must be temporarily living in the thief's place, waiting for the court to recruit him. He will serve the country loyally and do his best. He must be greedy for money and kill, and do injustice. His army has been going south for many days. But, has Mr. Xiang ever heard of him massacring civil and military gentry? Now Mr. Xiang has pity on this true feeling, and is determined to serve the country with all his heart, and do his best to repay it."

Lu Yirou was also happy when she heard this.

"It's so good. The imperial court has its own laws, how can it treat loyal ministers slowly."

In this way, Lu Yirou felt as if a big stone had been removed from his heart. He waved his hand to Yan Shun and told him to step back. He wrote a memorial and sent it to Luoyang.

Jin Maohu was also full of passion, thinking of Song Jiang returning to the court, it was as if he had found an organization.After returning to his residence, he packed up his luggage, took Lu Yirou's order card and reported to Shang Feng, selected a dozen strong soldiers from the army, bought brocade silk and fine wine, changed into a merchant's attire, and left Yangzhou full of joy City, went straight to Haozhou.

In this way, without Lu Qian noticing at all, a moth was born.And what choice Song Gongming made is not mentioned later.

It is only said that at this time in Tokyo city, people were neighing and horses were neighing.Before the Liangshan army reached the city, the Tokyo Left Behind Division began to operate.

Zhang San, who was in a certain restaurant, was looking at the Tokyo city from the top of the building with a binoculars.

It has really changed a lot. The beautiful and prosperous Tokyo city in the past has become much uglier now. Barricades have been erected everywhere in the streets and alleys.At night, young and strong patrols are organized, and anyone who has a token will be arrested.

In the southeast of the outer city, the granaries at Dongshuimen [the entrance of the Bianhe River] were all emptied by Liu Kai.

The young men in each village also need to receive training, and the Fuzhou troops who escaped from Jeju City will serve as instructors.Now the shouts of killing are loud and loud.These "ugliness" add a touch of blood and courage to this magnificent city that has been lost for more than a hundred years.

It's a pity, "This Liu Kaitian's great ability will not help. The young and strong people in Tokyo have long been softened by the prosperity here, how can they fight?"

In his eyes, the young and strong children in Tokyo are like mud that cannot support the wall.Compared with Liangshan army, white clouds and black soil are also.
