The Prince of Song Dynasty through the special forces

84 The Hardworking and Mysterious Visitor

A farewell song was played, and the people bid farewell to their relatives and friends.Then, the Song soldiers smiled, took their weapons, joined the crowd to form a big river, and marched under the banner of Li Zi's Dazhuling.

It doesn't stop here, it starts again there.King Xin's army mounted their horses one after another, and retreated back to the Zhongtiao Mountain Walled City with countless people.The rumbling horse army stepped out of the dusty sky, and these soldiers who had gone through the fierce battle became more elite, and followed Zhao Zhen towards the walled city under the Qingshi fortress.

Li Yanxian went back, and Shao Xing, Shao Long, and Shao Yun all returned to Shanzhou City.However, they went back with deep thoughts.This time Zhao Zhen told them that Zhao Gou might settle accounts against them in the fall, which made them start to waver about their future camp.In the end, Li Yanxian stated that he would not participate in the grievances between King Xin and His Majesty, and that he was only loyal to Song Dynasty.As long as Xin Wangjun is anti-gold, he will fully support it.Even if it is concealed from Emperor Zhao Gou, he will not hesitate.But if he wants to help Xin Wangjun fight against Zhao Gou, he will never do it.

In fact, what Zhao Zhen wanted was his words.As long as I fight against gold, you will fully support it, but it is this kind of support that will make Zhao Gou think that you, Li Yanxian, belong to me.Zhao Gou doesn't care what country you love, he cares whether you are obedient or not, and whether you follow him or not.As long as Li Yanxian supports him in fighting against gold, then Zhao Gou will naturally push Li Yanxian to his side.Zhao Zhen smiled sinisterly in his stomach.

The mountain roads are vast, the mountain paths are circling and turning, and the paths are circling.A group of people and horses are advancing.The team of dozens of people marched forward, and the leader turned back and said, "Have we not reached Gaopang Castle yet? Is it still far away?"

The man behind him said: "My lord...we are almost there, but the location of the newly established Gaopang city is still unknown, and you won't let us grab and ask around. It’s been a long time since we’ve been going all the way!”

The leader wearing a black gauze nodded and said: "Xin Wang Jun Gao Pang is no small matter, we can't be careless, you remember! This time, our only priority is to spy on the news! If it is not necessary, even if they spit on us We have to be patient, do you hear me clearly?" The thirteen knights shouted together: "I obey!"

Everyone continued to move forward. In that era of chaos and chaos, it was very dangerous to walk far away.During Huizong's reign, the people were in dire straits, and the Jin soldiers invaded on a large scale.The common people are so hungry that they eat grass roots and bark. If the grass roots and bark are gone, they are human beings!People have nothing to eat, just eat dirt!

The people couldn't survive, so they had to take risks and rise up.Zhao Zhen led the army to occupy only half of the east and west of the Taihang Mountains, and gathered tens of millions of people!It was nothing short of a miracle.How many people were there in the most prosperous period of the Northern Song Dynasty?Are there hundreds of millions?have!At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the population was about hundreds of millions.

The reason why there are so many people under Zhao Zhen's rule is nothing else.It is because under his rule, at the last time, there is also a gruel mixed with cabbage, potatoes, radishes and bran.Although there is not enough to eat, at least, everyone will not starve to death.

However, in the vast Central Plains, there are still many tyrants who are unwilling to defect to Zhao Zhen or go south, so they occupy the mountains as kings in this mountainous area and become bandits.At this time, in the wilderness and ridges, the forests are dense, the mountains and rivers are steep, the trails are chaotic and confusing, the mountain paths are uncertain, and the road is very difficult.If one is accidentally discovered by bandits and grass bandits, he will die.In the vast mountains, there are only a few official roads, and most of the rest are such mountain trails.

The leader wrapped in black gauze seeks the way from the "chaotic" path, avoiding encountering bandits and bandits who are rampant, Song army ruffians, and Jin army who are attacking the grass valley.They traveled hard all the way. They originally rode more than ten horses, but in the end, two more people had to walk.Because a few horses broke their hooves on the winding mountain road, and a horse's hoof broke, which means death.Everyone left their horses and had no choice but to let the unimportant people walk.

Just when everyone was tired from walking, they suddenly saw a loess road among the grass and trees in the distant mountains, and the loess road led to the distance.On both sides of the road, there are many fruit trees densely planted, including pear trees, peach trees, apricot trees, jujube trees, apple trees and so on.

Everyone rode forward and watched carefully.On the dirt road among the fruit trees, there are many footprints of people stepping on horses.The leader of the team said: "This road feels like...an official road!" The leader said: "That's right, let's take this road and see where it leads."

At the moment, everyone takes orders and walks along this road together.Unexpectedly, within a short distance, I saw a group of strong militiamen patrolling by ordinary people.Those militiamen are all riding horses. They carry hunting bows that can shoot [-] paces on their backs.Since defeating the Jin Army many times, the Xinwang Army has seized a large number of scimitars. These scimitars are inconvenient for the regular army to use, so they are used by the militiamen.

Zhao Zhen is now stationed in Shitiao Mountain and issued an order to the 10,000+ people under his rule.This is the first time he has issued an order as a ruler to all the people in the walled city around the Bluestone Fortress since the people defected to him.A command that benefits both him and the people.

Zhao Zhen demanded that all the people should open up wasteland to plant food, trees, fruit trees or other valuable land trees.Not only to plant trees, Zhao Zhen also asked to reclaim all roadsides and fields to grow food, no matter what kind of high-yield food!

Zhao Zhen will give rewards for planting food and trees.This reward is Zhao Zhen giving money or exchanging it for things.Zhao Zhen had the money and food that the Jin army had robbed, and Xin Wangjun always kept his word, so the people were not afraid that Xin Wangjun would not give it.Besides, Zhao Zhen didn't give it all at once, he paid it in installments and divided the supplies.For example, meat, iron utensils, and salt, these things may be rare to ordinary people, but it is not difficult for Zhao Zhen to get them.

The fruits on the fruit trees are also everyone's public property, and the common people can exchange these fruits for wine and food.Of course, what the commoners make by themselves is not very good, so they can only count on Zhao Zhen's. Only he can brew a lot of delicious fruit wine.Even the nobles of the Kingdom of Jin did not hesitate to make an exception for this kind of fruit wine and secretly traded it with Xin Wangjun. It is conceivable how mellow its taste is.

In addition to high-yield crops such as Chinese cabbage, white radish, potato, and sweet potato, Zhao Zhen also encouraged everyone to grow beans.At that time, the yields of wheat and rice were small, and the yields of sorghum and beans were relatively high.The beans planted Zhao Zhen can use money, grain, grain, meat or other to pay for these beans, and of course oil in exchange for beans.And these beans will be made into tofu, soy milk, soybean oil, and bean cakes.In Zhao Zhen's view, these soy products are superior to pure grains in terms of food, nutrition, and economic effect.Moreover, the products made from soybeans are all good foods that can fill the stomach, and soybean oil is even more luxurious.

Of course, apart from Shitiao Mountain, the Xinwang-occupied area also has this policy, but in the Xinwang-occupied area, it is more comprehensive.

After Zhao Zhen issued the order, all the people moved, because it was a big event.People say that life is bitter, but in fact there are reasons why they have to suffer.The reason is that they don’t know what they want to do. For example, they know how to farm, but generally speaking, these people don’t have much enthusiasm for farming, because from loosening the soil to planting, most of the people just wait stupidly. crops grow on the ground.Moreover, there are all kinds of exorbitant taxes for growing crops, and the food grown is not enough to pay the taxes!However, Zhao Zhen only received a small amount, especially for opening up wasteland. Zhao Zhen did not collect any taxes, and even provided seeds, but the food grown had to be traded with Xin Wangjun.

Under Xin Wangjun's policy, several militia cavalry teams were organized spontaneously in their respective villages. Each team consisted of more than a hundred people. Each cavalry team was divided into five teams. Dozens of teams patrolled the city wall back and forth. In the surrounding areas of the field, there is fear that the golden army will raid the arable land and fruit trees they have reclaimed.

This trip was led by a captain named Peng Xiaoyu.Peng Xiaoyu was also one of the people who reported the meritorious service to Zhao Zhen at the beginning, and his father was also the head of the village.Because of this, he became the captain of the militia.Peng Xiaoyu is a crazy believer in Wang Jun. He likes to believe in everything about Wang Jun. In order to show his reward and affirmation, Zhao Zhen gave them ten wooden masks and a hundred short knives for the militia guard cavalry. One hundred horse covers and twenty felt coats.Special Forces Crossing: Prince Song 84

As the captain of the third team of the Fifth Route Brigade, Peng Xiaoyu also has a good machete, which was captured by a soldier of the King Xin Army who captured the general of the Jin Army.Later, the soldiers of Naxin Wangjun exchanged the knife for some money and meat with him. After the exchange, Peng Xiaoyu loved this sharp machete like a treasure!

As soon as you see a group of people, even if there are few people, you will not let it go.Peng Xiaoyu brought people over.Twenty horses surrounded the team at once. In terms of numbers, there were 20 people on Peng Xiaoyu's side, nearly half more than the other side, who only had a dozen people.

Seeing Peng Xiaoyu leading the team over, the team also knew each other and did not move.This means that the other party is not malicious.Seeing the other party's cooperation, Peng Xiaoyu let go of half of his worries.Said: "Who are you?"

The leader in the black gauze who took the lead said: "We are a caravan of smuggling goods. We have no malicious intentions. I heard that there are business opportunities here, so let's take a look." Peng Xiaoyu smiled and said, "You are talking about our Qingshi City. Come on, there are countless new gadgets at Xinwangjun. Many businessmen from the Jin and Song Dynasties have come here, but you say you are a businessman, and there are too few people! Do you have money? Look at you all dressed up as warriors, don’t you? It seems like a pure businessman! It's like a guard protecting a businessman."

The leader in the black gauze said: "I have a little martial arts. In this world, how can anyone walk on the commercial road without warriors. These people are my employees, and we bring all the money. We only look at the quality of things!" "

Peng Xiaoyu doesn't know much about these ways of business. After all, he was born as a country boy. Even if he is the son of the village chief, he is still a countryman and has never seen much in the world.In addition, the leader in the black gauze did not reveal his words, so he had nothing to say.

Peng Xiaoyu said: "No matter what else, let me tell you now. We built the road here, and we planted these trees. It doesn't matter if you don't take this road, but now you have set foot on our road. You have to pay, fifty copper coins per person, plus the fruit on the tree is almost ripe now, so you need to charge another fifty copper coins, a total of one hundred copper coins per person, of course, if you leave this road now, each person Just pay fifty coins! Of course, if you don’t have copper coins, you can also use broken silver coins, but I don’t guarantee that you can find them if they are too big. If you don’t have small coins, you can pay with things!” There are many smugglers of Song Jin A businessman, he came to Shitiao Mountain for some private goods that only Xin Wangjun can have.

Xin Wangjun has good things, everyone knows.For example, all kinds of transparent glass, bright mirrors that can reveal hairs, and all kinds of bone vessels and soybean oil are deeply loved by the nobles of the Jin Kingdom and the southern families of the Song Dynasty.However, because the area occupied by the King Xin Army in the north was deep within the area controlled by the Jin Army, smugglers from the Kingdom of Jin could trade there, but Song merchants could not get through the joints of the Jin Army to go there.

However, Shitiao Mountain is in the Song Army's control area, and it is very safe for Song Shang to directly come here to deal with Xin Wangjun privately.Therefore, on Shitiao Mountain, many well-known merchants from the Song Dynasty came.The villagers can cover the expenses of these militiamen just by collecting tolls.And Peng Xiaoyu is not afraid that they don't have them, these people's swords are good swords, and their horses are not bad either.Even if they are not merchants and have no money, they can detain their swords and horses.Here, except for the poor people and the official military of the Song Dynasty, everyone has to pay.Of course, this was all permitted by Xin Wangjun, and even Zhao Zhen personally ordered it.

The leader in the black gauze hesitated for a moment. She had money, but she was not very happy to hand over the money for no reason, even though the money was not much.But for the purpose of this trip, she still paid the money.

Peng Xiaoyu didn't take the money and left, but said: "You are going to our city, aren't you?" The leader in the black gauze said: "Exactly, may I ask, we haven't been there, can you How about leading the way?"

Peng Xiaoyu laughed loudly, and said, "We can lead you and introduce you, but you have to pay us for the way!"

Helplessly, the leader in the black gauze counted out more than a hundred copper coins and handed them to Peng Xiaoyu.Peng Xiaoyu often collects money from time to time, and he is overjoyed.In the past, he searched mountains and rivers, hunted for a few days, and what he got was only a few dozen copper coins, maybe even less.Now you can get rich casually, isn't it good?It doesn't take much effort.

"Okay, it's convenient for customers and merchants to know each other! But I can remind you, this is Qingshi City, our leader is a powerful person, so everything can only be done according to the rules. You can't buy and sell by force, otherwise, you won't be able to do business! "He turned around and said: "Brothers, lead the way for the wealthy..."

After walking for a long time, people finally arrived. It was a wooden and stone outer wall. It seemed that the stone wall was going to be repaired, but it was not fully completed, so it was blocked by a wooden fence first, so it looked a bit crude.But the wall surrounded the entire mountain and a large circle of rivers and creeks, which was almost the size of a medium-sized city.It surprised the dozen or so people.

Outside, there are still trees planted, plants and flowers everywhere, and bees buzzing in the sky.Outside the wall, there are countless tents, most of which are people who have defected but have not yet resettled in the city.However, they will soon live in the city, because they are working hard to build their own homes in the city.

In addition to the common people, there are also some Song Dynasty merchants from the south. They have their own network of contacts. They come here to buy Xin Wangjun's special products and sell them at a high price from the southern aristocratic family.It is their reason that many big southern families use all kinds of beautiful glass products and mirrors.

In addition to the tents, the most eye-catching ones are the cavalry troops of the Xinwang Army running in and out.One of the generals is tall and has loose hair, but it can be seen that there is a string of silver chains on his nose, connected to a nose ring.

In Wang Xin's army pretending to be Li Yanxian's army, there is such a barbarian general?The leader wearing a black veil thought to herself, she looked at the top of the mountain in the distance, and there was a strange towering castle on the top of the mountain.But because the distance is too far, it is really hard to see.

Afterwards, the leader wearing a black veil looked at Peng Xiaoyu who brought them here, and Peng Xiaoyu was talking with a deputy general Xin Wangjun who had left the village.

After a while, a small official came over, holding a wooden sign in his hand, and under him was a woman.The two arrived in front of the leader wearing a black veil.The little official said: "Peng Xiaoyu said you are Zhao Shang? What's your name?"

The leader in the black gauze said respectfully: "After Xiadong, I heard that there are high-quality glazed products and mirrors in your land, so..." She was speaking purely with the wind. The army and the people here are not generally well-organized and strict, but they have already formed a huge walled city.It's so easy to get in.Special Forces Crossing: Prince Song 84

The little official shook his head and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, you people in the south like to talk nonsense, we need efficiency in our work, do you understand efficiency? It's what Xin Wang Qiansui said. I ask you to answer, and you are not allowed to say more. Let me ask you, you just say your name is Dongyu, you want glass and mirror, how much do you want? How much did you bring?"

The leader in the black gauze was about to speak, but the little official said: "However, how much money you bring is secondary, we will hold a market in the morning, but the glass and mirror you want, we only have one item at a time." I can give you five. This is your brand, do you know? You are No. 67, today’s No. 60 seven merchants. Some time ago, the Golden Army retreated. This time is a peaceful time, so there are more merchants. We will call you, call you, come again. Remember, only you can enter, don’t talk nonsense, don’t be troublesome, have you seen it? You have to settle accounts under this wall, and you can’t run around! Of course , if you find it troublesome, you can leave immediately! Do you understand?"
