[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember it in a second, never lose it!

Ouyang Zhi is a person who abides by his own law and abides by principles. His biggest principle is that no matter what happens, the first rule is to do well what his mentor ordered first!

After he read the imperial decree expressionlessly, He Yan, Li Shan, and Wang Bao looked at each other in blank dismay.

Will the Tatars attack Jinzhou?

This is not right, the front of Jinzhou is Daning, and Daning is the scope of activities of Duoyan Sanwei. Why would the Tatars take this risk?

Moreover, what good is it to them to fight Jinzhou? This city of Jinzhou is as solid as gold, and the difficulty of winning it is not lower than that of Datong. , but what is the use of winning Jinzhou?

Of course, this is an imperial decree, so everyone laughed, and He Yan said with emotion: "Your Majesty is really wise. He is far away thousands of miles away, and he still misses the soldiers and civilians in our border town. I really admire him. He loves the people with all his strength. non-Yao and Shun can’t compare with each other’s heart.”

Wang Bao is a eunuch, his smiling face froze: "It's really a blessing for us to be able to serve His Majesty. Our ancestors have accumulated virtue in eight lifetimes."

These two, one is a military officer and the other is an eunuch, it seems that since they chose this profession, they don't intend to lose face.

But Xunyan Yushi Li Shan is different, he is a Qingliu, so he looked at Wang Bao very contemptuously, and scolded in his heart, your ancestors accumulated virtues for eight lifetimes before letting you cleanse yourself and become an eunuch. Germany coming?

Ouyang Zhi said solemnly, "Your Majesty's intention is obvious. Since the Tatars may attack Jinzhou, in order to defend Jinzhou, it is necessary to strengthen Jinzhou's security. Jinzhou must not relax."

"Okay, okay, I don't dare to be negligent and negligent. Please rest assured." Speaking of it, He Yan is the commander of the guard. Laughing, it can be seen that Daming puts more emphasis on literature than martial arts.

Ouyang Zhi said again: "Also, Your Majesty also explained that Jinzhou will be fortified and cleared. Therefore, within half a month, the people must be relocated into the city. What I said is that within a hundred miles around Jinzhou, all the military and civilian population, including their food and livestock."

"..."

All of a sudden, the three of them froze.

Isn't this a joke?

Just for a false warning, you want to fortify the wall and clear the country?

How much loss will be caused by this strong wall and clearing the field.

But Zhongguan Wang Bao smiled: "Okay, okay, His Majesty has given orders, no problem, no problem."

He Yan was also happy, like a kowtow: "Okay, okay, this is not a problem. It is snowing outside and the imperial envoy is entering the city. Let's drink some water and wine to warm up."

Ouyang Zhi was surprised. He thought that there would be resistance from Jinzhou, but he never expected that they would agree so happily.

Only Li Shan, the imperial censor, kept a straight face and didn't make a sound.

Liu Jin stood behind Ouyang Zhi, with a half-smile.

Ouyang Zhi waved his hands and said, "There's no need for that. The war is imminent, business matters are urgent, and there is no time to drink water and wine."

He Yan and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. This reaction seemed to be a slow-moving imperial envoy, which seemed a little unreasonable.

Half an hour later, Zhongguan Wang Bao poured a jug of wine for Liu Jin in Zhongguan's houya house with a smile, and said, "Back then, we all studied in the inner study hall, and we, pitifully, arrived in Liaodong. , you, but now you are in the East Palace, you really have a bright future. I never thought that our two brothers would meet here, you said, isn't this fate?"

Liu Jin took a sip of hot wine before saying, "We are here by order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Wang Bao laughed dryly: "I don't know His Royal Highness..."

"Strengthen the wall and clear the field!" Before Wang Bao could finish asking, Liu Jin said bluntly.

Wang Bao was stunned for a moment, and then said in shock: "What, is it really hardening the walls and clearing the fields?"

"Don't you think it was a joke?" Liu Jin looked at him coldly.

Wang Bao couldn't help saying: "When the imperial envoy said it, we didn't think it was a joke, but this matter...is too big, how many people are involved, not to mention the Tatars coming to Jinzhou...isn't this a joke? So, Let's promise first, the Hanlin like the imperial envoy is not fooling around casually, we will do whatever he says, but..."

Liu Jin said with a half-smile, "This is the meaning of His Highness the Crown Prince."

Wang Bao's heart trembled: "Eunuch Liu is here on a special trip to handle this matter?"

Liu Jin said sadly and angrily: "If it can't be done, we will die, and our whole family will be killed to sacrifice to heaven!"

Wang Bao's face became uncertain: "This matter is too big. Just think about it. There are 100,000 soldiers and civilians outside Jinzhou City. Even if the order is really given, are they really willing to enter the city? They are outside, but they have land and land. , you want to leave your hometown, take your family with you... just because of this non-existent Tatar attack?"

Liu Jin sneered and said: "It has nothing to do with us whether they are willing or not. If they are not willing, Your Highness will limit it to half a month. If the matter is urgent, then use force! Isn't it because they are unwilling? Then burn their houses and take down those who are not willing." Be obedient, let's see if they are willing, we don't care about anything else, if we can't get things done, we will settle accounts with you."

"..." Wang Bao was a little confused.

He immediately said: "How about, let's ask Xiao Zuzong about this matter."

However, Liu Jin still looked at Wang Bao coldly, with some disdain in his eyes: "Ancestor Xiao is a fart. Could it be that Ancestor Xiao obediently knelt down and called a thousand years old when he saw our Highness? You can't figure it out. ? tell you the truth

, when Ouyang Zhi came, he brought Yujian with him. We are kindly reminding you that with this Yujian in hand, His Royal Highness should be in awe. If an idiot wants to kill a few people first to gain prestige, can you keep your head? "

Wang Bao was immediately bluffed, he didn't care about anything else, and said quickly: "Cheng Chengcheng, it's all here, what else do we have to say, here in the guardian mansion, I will do my best."

…………

In fact, in Liaodong, no one expected that the imperial envoy and Liu Jin were serious.

It was only on the second day that Ouyang Zhi found out that the people in Jinzhou had such a deep routine, and they responded well yesterday, but today, when they heard that they were going to make a move, they all began to complain.

So he really took out the imperial sword that Fang Jifan asked him to bring, and directly suppressed the people in Jinzhou.

And Liu Jin is a complete lunatic.

As soon as the order to command He Yan was received, he joined forces with Zhongguan Wang Bao to force the relocation.

The eunuchs probably didn't talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality in their work, and sent people directly, and those who refused to move would immediately burn their houses and take them away.

This, even Ouyang Zhi couldn't stand it anymore, he wrote the book all night and sent it to his mentor, and accused Liu Jin severely.

Li Shan, the censor who had been watching coldly, was not waiting for nothing, and a copy of impeachment had already been sent out.

In the whole Jinzhou, a large number of people, like cattle and sheep, were driven into Jinzhou. The vicious guards began to burn the villages everywhere, and all the food that could not be taken away was burned up. The hundreds of households stationed in the fort outside the city were also forcibly transferred.

The whole Jinzhou seems to have become a huge prison. Countless soldiers and civilians have become refugees, filling the base of the city wall and complaining everywhere.

And taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Jin naturally did not forget to start blackmailing the wealthy households in the city. We are all here, what do you mean, if you don't show some filial piety, do you still have a conscience?

…………

hundreds of miles away.

In the desert, the biting cold wind howls, which can make people's bones numb.

And in the continuous yurt, a man wearing a tiger skin, in the warm tent, a scarlet scar on his face is particularly shocking. At this moment, his knife-like eyes were scanning the map in front of him. Deep in these eyes, there was a cunning like a fox in the grassland, and this cunning was fleeting and quickly replaced by a cold front.

He slowly stretched out his hand, in front of the leaders surrounding the map, and finally, his fingertips touched the location of Jinzhou on the map.

All the generals who were eager to try had excitement in their eyes.

………………

It was also snowing in the capital, and the snowflakes were like goose feathers, icy cold, floating on the ground.

The frigid weather made Fang Jifan's brain disease show signs of recurring, and he had to lie in the warm spring-like home to recuperate from his illness.

And Ouyang Zhi's letter has also been delivered.

After several disciples gave birth, they all came to surround their mentor, Xu Jing took out Ouyang Zhi's letterhead, and began to recite in front of Fang Jifan.

After the letter of confidence was completed, the disciples frowned and looked at Fang Jifan worriedly.

Tang Yin took the lead and couldn't help but said: "I knew that Liu Jin was not a good person. This time, His Highness asked him to go to Jinzhou. It was really a bad idea. How many times he has done so many angry things? Senior brother Ouyang went with him, so don't do it." It's good to be dragged down by him, poor soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou, I'm afraid they will be tossed miserably by this guy."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Fang Jifan also nodded and said: "Yeah, Liu Jin is really damned for doing such a thing. His Royal Highness, I really shouldn't send this person to Jinzhou. This is harmful. Next time, don't let my teacher bump into Liu Jin." If you run into this dog thief, I will break his dog's leg for the sake of the teacher, and give a sigh of relief for our soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou!"

Fang Jifan spoke eloquently, but he was thinking in his heart, Liu Jin really did not disappoint him, the work efficiency is high, once he makes a move, the matter of fortifying the wall and clearing the country will be considered a success.

Letting the crown prince send out Liu Jin, a mad dog, is not because Fang Jifan has low morals. It would be better to let Liu Jin harm the soldiers and civilians of Jinzhou. At least... Liu Jin can get things done and the soldiers and civilians in Liaodong can survive.

It makes sense, is it useful?

………………

The new month has finally begun. Tigers will continue to work hard. If students have tickets, they will continue to smash tigers. If Tigers are happy, they will have more energy in coding!
