Chapter 481 What a big pot
"If it weren't for the connivance of the imperial brother, how could Sun Yu be where he is today?" Li Congshan's eyes flashed fiercely. He was about to start a new life and would not allow anyone to ruin it.
"Okay, I'll let you do it!" Zhao Guangyi felt that he could take a gamble and make small profits but big profits.
If he loses the bet, he should be able to escape with so many hostages in hand.
"Does this Sun Yu have family members in Jiangning?" Zhao Guangyi suddenly realized that there must be some restraint measures for the officials in the border area.
"Yes, Sun Yu's eldest son, although he is a concubine, is his only son, and he is in the city." Li Congshan just realized it, yes, there is another card in the city to deal with Sun Yu, but he doesn't know how effective it is.
.
In the Duke's Mansion of the State of Lu, Uncle Quan was very sensible. He opened the door to welcome the Song army who came in to search, and took away whatever he wanted. He only had one idea, which was to protect the eldest young master Zhenzhou.
The Duke of Lu's Mansion was a big family in this area and had a lot of money. The general in charge of this area personally brought people to search. In view of Uncle Quan's courtesy, it was not too difficult. He just moved away the valuable jewelry and left.
He also put a sign on the door to prevent the Duke of Lu's residence from being disturbed.
One day after An's birthday, Uncle Quan looked at the eldest young master who was already able to run around on the ground, and he was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
"Dad, Dad, it's not good, the Song Army is coming again." Now that the war is in chaos, Uncle Quan specially asked his son to guard the gate of the Duke's Mansion, for fear of something big happening.
"What's going on? The sign at the door doesn't work?" Uncle Quan was startled, why did he come again? It's so endless. All the treasures on the public face of the Duke's Mansion were handed over, and the rest was left unexcavated.
Three feet cannot be found.
"Dad, it was the general who led the team personally last time."
"Hold the young master, don't be scared." Uncle Quan couldn't figure out the situation and could only wait and see what happened.
Sure enough, in less than half a stick of incense, dozens of soldiers rushed in and surrounded Uncle Quan and others.
"General, we have handed over all our belongings. What is going on?" Uncle Quan thought to himself that something was wrong. The other party's attitude did not look like he was asking for money. He was probably here for the eldest young master.
"I have been ordered to bring the eldest son of the Duke of Fujian to the palace to meet the saint." The general bowed his hands in the direction of the palace. In fact, he was following Zhao Guangyi's order.
"General, the child is still young and doesn't understand anything. If anything happens, I will go with the general." Uncle Quan cupped his hands, just hoping to fool him. Now there are Song troops everywhere in the city. Which palace should he enter?
Holy shit.
"Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to meet the saint?" The general pushed Uncle Quan away, walked to the man holding the child, and grabbed the child.
The person holding Sun Zhenzhou was none other than Uncle Quan's son. He had long been frightened out of his wits by such a fight.
Sun Zhenzhou was a pampered man. When he was treated like this, he immediately burst into tears and kicked his hands and feet wildly.
"Let's go!" Regardless of Sun Zhenzhou's crying, the superiors told him to take the child back intact.
"General! Listen to me, take the little old man with you so that you can coax the child. How can the warriors in the army do this shitty job?" When Uncle Quan heard the eldest young master's crying, his heart was as sharp as a knife.
, immediately leaned to the ground and asked.
"Then be more honest, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel." Hearing this, the general thought it was reasonable. Let him take care of this little brat and it would cost him his life.
Although I was ordered to arrest this child, I didn't dare to cause trouble. This child's identity is not simple.
"Young master, don't cry, don't cry." Uncle Quan took Sun Zhenzhou and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves to calm him down.
Sun Yu, who is outside Liyang City, is nesting in the valley with more than 3,000 cavalry. Even if the people can eat well, the horses still need to rest. If there are enough horses, one person and two horses, they can reach the gate of Jiangning City tonight.
There are many soldiers under Sun Yu's command who are from this area. Zheng Tu of the Third Regiment is from Liyang. This time, he was stationed in Hangzhou because he was afraid that he would be timid because of his close proximity to his hometown. If the war broke out, he would be troubled.
Han Zaiwu and Gao Huichang have completely shed their immaturity and become real young generals, with magnanimity in every move they make.
When marching in a hurry, they always eat the dry food they carry with them, and Sun Yu is no exception. There is a pottery basin hanging on the bonfire in front of him, and some hot water to drink, which is already very good.
"My lord, why don't we just open the city gate instead of spending the night in the wilderness." Han Zaiwu took a freshly cut bamboo tube, scooped some hot water into the pottery basin, and put the dry and hard rice cakes in it.
, as long as it is soaked for a short time, it will become much softer.
"The situation is unclear right now. Even if the city gate is opened, I dare not go in." Sun Yu shook his head. Liyang is so close to Jiangning, who knows what the situation is like in the city?
The biggest advantage of the cavalry is speed. Once they enter the city, they are like beasts that have been stripped of their claws. Li Chuyun's encounter in Jiangling was not long ago. If Li Chuyun had not underestimated the enemy, how could he have such a large cavalry now.
Sun Yu's current banner was to return to Jiangning to report on his duties and receive a review, so the march was naturally arrogant. Moreover, with so many cavalry, there was no way to hide his traces.
With one hand he grabbed a dry and hard steamed bun and gnawed it, while with the other hand he held a rice cake soaked in hot water. It was not delicious, but it was very filling. Sun Yu chewed and swallowed slowly. This kind of eating was most likely to cause indigestion.
"Report! There is a messenger from outside the camp, coming from Jiangning, asking to see the Duke!" A soldier ran to Sun Yu and said, clasping his fists.
"Messenger? The speed is really fast. Bring it here." Sun Yu sent a good news when he set off from Huzhou early in the morning. When he arrived here after dark, he received a reply from the other party, which was a bit unexpected.
As soon as Sun Yu saw the messenger's dress, he knew he was from the inn, and he didn't know how much inside information he knew.
"Where are you from?" Sun Yu wanted to know the real situation in Jiangning City.
"The young one has lived in Balibao outside Jiangning City since he was a child. His father was a post messenger. The son inherited his father's business and got this job." The messenger bent his waist very low. The man in front of him was a presence that he could not look up to.
.
"How is Jiang Ning doing now?" Sun Yu nodded. This kind of job as a messenger is very tiring, but the treatment is good.
"It's quite stable now. The Song army is stationed around the city wall and no longer harasses the people in the city." The messenger replied truthfully. He was an errand boy and couldn't afford to offend anyone. Fortunately, he didn't know much.
"What happened to the Duke of Lu's Mansion?" Sun Yu was most worried about Uncle Quan and Zhenzhou. In the past, the government and the Qing Gang were still taking care of them, but now that the Song Army has entered the city, these methods are of no use.
"I don't know, but I have never been to the east side of the city." In the east of Jiangning City, dignitaries and dignitaries live, and their consumption is extremely high. He is a messenger, but he is only slightly stronger than ordinary people. He can have a messenger in the west of the city.
A house with a roof is already a great thing.
"Well, you go down first, evil dog, and make arrangements." Sun Yu nodded, as expected, and first took a look at what was written in the letter.
When I opened the envelope, familiar handwriting appeared on the paper. It was written by King Li Congshan of Han Dynasty.
Sun Yu read it word by word, very carefully, for fear of missing something. His brows sometimes relaxed, sometimes he frowned. Han Zaiwu and Gao Huichang beside him both stared at the letter in his hand.
"My lord, what is written in the letter?
What happened?" Han Zaiwu couldn't help but ask.
"Let me go to Jiangning to accept the reward." Sun Yu threw the letter directly into the bonfire. How could he enter Jiangning where the Song Army was stationed, and Li Congshan couldn't invite him.
"Then what should we do?" Gao Huichang asked. Now that we are here, we should wait for the opportunity.
"Let's go outside the city to check out the situation first." Anyway, he is a cavalryman, coming and going like the wind, so it would be nice to go and have a look, and by the way, meet Zhao Guangyi, the brother of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.
This man was not a good person. In my original memory, he was the next emperor of the Song Dynasty.
As for keeping this person, Sun Yu didn't want to, after all, his brother was more difficult to deal with than him.
On top of the imperial city, Li Congshan stood with his hands behind his hands. Standing next to him was none other than Zhao Guangyi.
"He's really here!" Looking at the smoke and dust in the sky, Zhao Guangyi knew that it must be the cavalry led by Sun Yu.
He didn't expect Sun Yu to come alone. As long as he was willing to enter the city, that was a good thing. Even if he refused to enter the city, he still had backup options.
Seeing Jiangning City again, I was still shocked by its majesty. Such a city cannot stop people's hearts after all.
"Hey~" Sun Yu pulled the reins, and Li Huo stopped, and the entire cavalry team also stopped one after another. This place is only one mile away from Jiangning City, so we have to save our horsepower to face unexpected events.
More than three thousand horses came, and there was no way to hide such a movement. Yan Xu was waiting for him personally at the city gate. He was supposed to greet them at the city gate, but Yan Xu refused even if he died. Once Sun Yu found out that something was wrong, he
There is certainly no escape.
Standing next to Yan Xu was Cao Bin, who was the one who actually implemented the plan.
Looking at the cavalry team that suddenly slowed down, Cao Bin knew that the chance was slim, but he still had a trace of luck.
When he was still two hundred steps away from the city gate, Sun Yu stopped and took out his binoculars to look around. There was almost no one going in or out of the open city gate. Looking inside the city gate, he saw that there were some people dressed as ordinary people.
They were on a business trip, but their identity was revealed by the pace of their movements.
Looking towards the top of the city, Yan Xu's annoying face and the generals on the side are probably the real controllers of the city.
Sun Yu continued to move forward, and after walking about eighty steps, he stopped. If he went further, the other party might use the bed crossbow.
In the rear, the vicious dogs led a group of people to protect a group of carriages and horses, approaching the large army. Sitting inside were Li Zheng and village elders from various villages along the way, a total of more than a hundred people. They were wearing light clothes.
Leather armor to conceal identity.
Not far behind Sun Yu, an open space was specially opened for them to stay, so that they could hear the exchange between Sun Yu and Chengtou. Sun Yu knew that he could not enter the city, but he still fought to the city. Naturally,
prestige.
Reputation is invisible and intangible, but it is real capital. Why did Uncle Liu Huang, who weaved mats and sold shoes in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, risk his own life to gain reputation?
Come out of the world.
"Sun Guogong, His Majesty the King is already waiting in the palace. I have been specially ordered to wait here for the Duke to enter the city!" Although Yan Xu hated Sun Yu deeply, Cao Bin was beside him, so he had to behave better.
"The lord of the country? Yan Xu is a thief. Up to now, you still want to deceive me? You are colluding with the Song army to assassinate the lord of the country, and you want to trick me into the city and kill me? Don't even think about it!" Sun Yu raised the iron trumpet and sounded like
Thunder exploded and spread far and wide.
"You! You're talking nonsense!" Yan Xu was trembling with anger. He was actually called a thief in front of so many people, and he was blamed for the fall of Jiangning. He was even more unjust than Dou E. He had a
