Kuizhou Road was Xiao Cheng’s first stop when he entered Qianzhou.

At that time, Qianzhou was still a prefecture under Kuizhou Road. As the Qianzhou Contractor, the first thing Xiao Cheng did when he took office was to visit Li Fang, who was the transfer envoy of Kuizhou Road at the time and was also the leader of Kuizhou Road.

It was also here that Xiao Cheng met Yang Quan of the Yang family in Bozhou and Tian Yi of the Tian family of Sizhou.

It was with the help of these two people that Xiao Cheng began his vigorous border expansion business in Qianzhou in the following years.

Today, Yang Quan has grown from a marginal child who is not valued by the Yang family to the head of the Yang family and is in charge of the Zunyi Mansion. Tian Yi is a judge in the Futai Mansion on Guizhou Road and is in charge of finances. They are all already successful.

Already.

The fate of Li Fang, the leader of Kuizhou Road at that time, made people sigh.

Because Xiao Cheng was very successful in Qianzhou, it was quite difficult for the court.

You say this guy is a rebellious official. He is opening up the territory for you in the Song Dynasty. The territory is surrounded and the list of small households is sent to the capital according to the rules. He also pays a tax every year. Although it is only symbolic, it is

Having this attitude is already very good.

In addition, Xiao Cheng spent money to hire a group of literati to serve as trumpets for his actions, which made Xiao Cheng's good reputation known to the world, making the court helpless against him.

Therefore, the emperor took his anger out on Li Fang.

After Li Fang became an official, he originally wanted to get a good title of Duke of the State, but in the end he didn't get anything.

That's all. Later, Ma Xing angered the officials, who took away his position as the Hebei Road pacifier. For a while, they couldn't find anyone to take over. Privy Council Privy Council Chen Gui recommended Li Fang. After all, Li Fang was still the leader.

Someone who knows how to fight.

But Li Fang received a warning from his nephew Li Ge, and the news about Li Ge came from Xiao Cheng's judgment on the Hebei border, and Li Fang still very much recognized Xiao Cheng's judgment.

But the official's order cannot be violated. After all, the official has been angered once. If the official is angry again, the consequences will be bad.

So Li Fang procrastinated and found various excuses not to take office.

This delay directly led to the massive invasion of the Liao Kingdom, Ma Xing died in the battle and took office, and the entire Hebei province was lost.

Li Fang finally came back with his life saved.

If he happily went to Hebei to take office as soon as he received the appointment, then it would not be Ma Xing but him who would die there.

But what he didn't expect at that time was that what happened later would be much more terrifying than his death in office.

Commander Yun of the Liao army marched straight in and surrounded Tokyo, while Li Fang and his family were surrounded in Tokyo and could not escape.

As Tokyo was captured, families like Li Fang were all captured by the Liao people.

Today's Kuizhou Road transfer envoy is Chen Qun and Chen Zigong, the judge of Kuizhou Road back then.

Now, he was standing on the pier in Fuling, watching the Wujiang Navy warships entering the pier one after another. Dozens of ships docked, filling the small Fuling pier to the brim.

, is just a vanguard, the real large force will arrive here in the next few days.

A total of 10,000 Guizhou Road troops will arrive at Jinghu North Road along the waterway first, and then go all the way north to Qinwang Tokyo.

Since getting to know Xiao Cheng ten years ago, Chen Qun can be said to have watched Xiao Cheng step by step transform the sparse Qianzhou into the powerful Guizhou Road, and then open up the Yunnan Road.

, Cen Zhong from Guangnan West Road is also the only one who obeys Xiao Cheng's orders.

Although he is only a pacifier on one road, he holds real power on three roads and has tens of thousands of tigers.

A real overlord.

During this process, Chen Qun wisely expressed his goodwill to Xiao Cheng.

It's simple, because Xiao Cheng has penetrated Kuizhou Road to pieces.

Don't forget, Li Fang's nephew Li Ge is now an important figure in Xiao Cheng's Futai mansion.

Li Fang served as the transfer envoy of Kuizhou Road for many years. Although he later handed over this position to Chen Qun, the roots of the Li family still penetrated into all aspects of Kuizhou Road. After Li Fang left,

These people are naturally closer to Li Ge than themselves.

As Xiao Cheng's power grew, Li Ge's cohesion became greater.

A two-story boat slowly approached the dock. Looking at the flag on it, Chen Qun immediately had a smile on his face. He lifted his robe and strode forward, following him on Kuizhou Road.

Officials of all sizes understood immediately and hurriedly followed Chen Qun to greet him.

The protagonist they had been waiting for for a long time, Xiao Cheng, the pacifier of Guizhou Road, finally arrived.

On the bow of the boat, a young man in casual clothes was holding a ten-year-old child in his hand and looking at them with a smile.

"Xiao Futai, you've had a hard journey!" Chen Qun said with a smile and cupped his hands.

"I've seen Futai!" Behind him, a large group of officials stood and bowed in salute.

"Brother Chen, you're so polite!" Xiao Cheng walked down the gangplank and bowed humbly to Chen Qunshen.

"Xiao Futai understands the great righteousness, King Qin of Qianli. As far as I know, I am afraid that you are the first local minister to respond to King Qin's order and the first to take action!" Chen Qun said.

"The Liao people are so fierce. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. If it's too late, I'm afraid it'll be too late!" Xiao Cheng sighed: "It's too hasty, so I can only come here with this idea of ​​troops, which can only be used to attract others.

"

Chen Qun paused for a moment. Is this still considered a haste? Is this still considered a provocation?

There are just five thousand tigers and hundreds of warships of various kinds. If these belongings are placed on Kuizhou Road, even if they are put in a few years, they will not be able to collect them all. If this gives you enough time, you can

What kind of team can you come up with?

But obviously, it’s better not to talk about this topic casually, otherwise you really don’t know what to say.

Turning his eyes, his eyes fell on the child following Xiao Cheng.

"Zhao An has seen Chen Qun!" The child saw Chen Qun looking over, but he was a little shy. At Xiao Cheng's signal, he stepped forward and saluted Chen Qun.

This is Xiao Cheng's disciple who entered the house. It seems that he has been following Xiao Cheng since he was a child.

As for Xiao Cheng, he has only accepted one disciple so far.

Although he was young, seeing how much Xiao Cheng valued him, he couldn't be scornful. Chen Qun smiled and nodded.

"It's been a hard journey to Futai, Wangjiang Tower has prepared a banquet, let's wash away the dust first!" Chen Qun said.

If a guest does as the host does, Xiao Cheng will naturally not refuse.

What's more, Chen Qun's position is also extremely important, and this person's efforts are worthy of his attention.

There is only one table on the third floor of Wangjiang Tower.

Futai Xiao Cheng, Guan Gou Ji Yi, Wen Luo Xin, are all in charge, and the soldiers and horses are commanding Yang Wanfu and three others. At this moment, Zhao An can only stand behind Xiao Cheng and others to help drink, while Chen Qun is on the side.

, apart from him, there were only judges, signatures and an elder of the Li family.

"Futai, Kuizhou Road Soldier Major General Wei, despite his hard work, only prepared 500 tiger warriors to accompany Futai to King Qin. However, we have prepared a month's worth of food, grass and baggage for your army. Then,

I will also keep raising supplies for Futai!" Chen Qun said directly after drinking for three rounds.

The Kuizhou Road Transport Envoy is in charge of more than just Kuizhou Road. In fact, he is also responsible for the food and salary transport in Yizhou.

You said he has no soldiers, that's true.

But if you want to say that he has no money or food, that's not the case.

Yizhou is truly a land of abundance.

The Kuizhou Road Transport Envoy, who holds the power of transporting goods to Yizhou, is a real good job.

This is also the reason why Xiao Cheng has always been kind to Chen Qun...

He wanted to pass Chen Qun and slowly extend his hand into Yizhou Road.

At present, the key point of Yizhou Road is not obvious, but if the entire north is lost and the world is in chaos, then the importance of Yizhou will be different from what it is now.

"Now that the country is in crisis, Mr. Chen can be so impatient and righteous. Xiao thanked him first! He didn't want to show any respect, so he borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha and toast Mr. Chen with a glass of wine!" Xiao Cheng picked up the wine glass and said sincerely: "The soldiers and horses have not moved.

Food and grass go first. Although we are going to King Qin for official business, we are still a guest army after all. After we go out, there will definitely be many difficulties and dangers along the way. If we have enough food and grass, things will be much easier."

"I dare not compare with Futai!" After drinking a glass of wine, Chen Qun sighed: "Who would have thought that Cui Ang, Liu Yu, Liu Quanyi and others would actually surrender to the enemy and become eagle dogs? Xiao Futai, tell me,

How did this situation suddenly reach this point?"

"If you do evil by God, you can still live, but if you do evil by yourself, you can't live!" Xiao Cheng shook his head.

"Can Tokyo be defended?"

"If we work together and are not afraid of casualties, we may not be able to defend it!" Xiao Cheng said: "After all, there is no other place in the world that can compare to the walls of Tokyo City. There is no shortage of people or weapons in the city.

.”

"But there's a shortage of food!" Chen Qun said.

Xiao Cheng snorted: "If we raid the homes of all the civil and military officials, wealthy gentry, and noble clans in Tokyo, we can get enough food to last for a month or two. As long as they can keep one or two taels, it won't be a problem."

Months, the reinforcements from all over the world can even crawl through!"

"I'm afraid I can't do it!" Chen Qun was dumbfounded.

Probably only the young Futai in front of me could do such a thing.

"If you can't do it, then it depends on luck! If the skin is gone, how can the hair be attached? They should still understand this truth, right?"

"Many people will not shed tears until they see the coffin!" Luo Xin said on one side: "They all have the idea of ​​not letting others go first. You are counting on me, and I am counting on him!"
