Chapter 6 Everyone has a fantasy

Northeast of Dawu Empire,

Pingyang County,

Guarding General Zhang's Mansion,

As a resident of the Imperial City Department of Pingyang County, Shen Baichuan has always wanted to be transferred out of this place, but has never been successful.

Not to mention that this place is not good, but it is really not good. People can't stand the cold weather in winter. Secondly, they don't feel safe now. There are Jurchen rangers everywhere. If there's any bad thing, just explain it. This is it.

Ever since Pingliao City at the mouth of the valley east of the Luoyun Plain fell to the Jurchens, this place has become unsafe.

Without the dangerous barrier of Pingliao City, Luoyun Plain would be in danger of being visited by Jurchens almost every day. He had already heard about what happened outside the city yesterday.

The reason why we didn't come to discuss yesterday was because we were still hoping for luck. Maybe the prince and the others would come back safely. Who knows, two days have passed and not even a horse hair has been seen. It's probably more serious than bad.

The reason I came here today was to inquire about the whereabouts of King Zhongshun Zhou Shi'an and the distinguished generals, and to see if the guard had any good ideas. As for the 20,000 cavalry, they are probably gone. I also asked Zhang Guard to discuss how to solve the matter.

If it's not handled well, let alone being transferred, it's just a matter of whether the head and head can be saved!

Zhang Jinyu also walked into the living room with a guilty conscience and asked Ning Bian and others to have fun outside.

As soon as he came in, he saw Si Qianhu of the Imperial City sitting there in a daze with an uncertain expression, looking very worried.

I wondered if I had discovered it, and the person opposite hadn't figured out how to ask? If not, I would kill him or admit it.

"Ahem! Shen Qianhu, what brought you here?"

Zhang Jinyu coughed guiltily and asked first,

Shen Baichuan, who was sitting on the stool, suddenly jumped up when he heard the voice of questioning. The big movement also startled Zhang Jinyu.

"This! What's on Qianhu's mind? Are you so distracted?"

Zhang Jinyu was a little puzzled, it didn't seem like he was asking about money.

"It's Zhang Shoubei. Don't blame me. Don't blame me. Brother Yu is worried about our lives!"

Zhang Jinyu was a little confused when she heard Shen Baichuan's serious words. How could he not only want money, but also his family's life?

No!

Absolutely not!

"Then Shen Qianhu, tell me what's going on!"

Now that he's here, he's in peace. Zhang Jinyu also put down his baggage, walked over, sat down and asked.

"Brother Yu, let's make it clear. Zhang Shoubei also knows what happened yesterday. The whereabouts of Prince Zhou and the generals are unknown, and the fate of the 20,000 soldiers is unknown. How can I explain it to the court? What does Zhang Shoubei think?"

Zhang Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief. It's not that the money was discovered, that's fine. As for why I didn't watch it, I just sat and watched it!

"Shen Qianhu, if you have something to say, it's not my place to think about this matter, right? The report is your Imperial City Department's business, and I am just a general guarding the city. Is there any day you can still argue with me?"

Zhang Jinyu poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip and then said;

"As for what to think, have you seen the Jurchen camp outside the city? It should be what they think. The moat will be filled in tomorrow. What do you think, Shen Qianhu?"

When Shen Baichuan heard this, his face looked like a dead relative, his eyes were lifeless, he sat there and muttered to himself;

"Then, then, aren't you dead?"

"Survival in death, what choice does Shen Qianhu have?"

Seeing Shen Qianhu entangled like this, Zhang Jinyu had an idea in his mind. If they conspired to give the court a white lie, for example, all parties are now trying to rape Pingyang County.

Everyone wants the Luoyun Plain, including Zhang Jinyu!

If we capture Pingliao City in the east, close the gate on the east side of the plain, there is Tianbai Mountain Range in the north that no one can cross, and there is Pingyun City on the west side of the plain, we are trying to find a way to get it.

The foundation for this family's century-old plan has been laid in his own hands. The future is something to look forward to. If nothing else, the Tu Emperor has already decided it. As for whether it can continue in the future, it depends on the opportunity.

It’s not Zhang Jinyu’s imagination, but the Dawu Dynasty is still implementing the Jiedushi system. Jiedushi are held by these founding nobles, but they have always held important positions in the pass.

As for the border, there are very few nobles taking office, because the border here has been in war for a long time, and the big families, nobles, etc. do not want to come here.

Therefore, it would not be Zhang Jinyu's turn to be the garrison general of this largest city in the north. If it weren't for the specialty fur here and the precious medicinal materials and ginseng from Tianbai Mountain, Pingyang County would have been deserted.

So this matter, whether it is a fantasy or a dream, let’s see if there is a chance, or what if the emperor agrees!

If this person has no illusions, he is no different from a salted fish.

When Shen Baichuan heard Zhang Jinyu's words, he felt that there was something in the words, as if there was another meaning, so he asked;

"General Zhang, let's make it clear. Let's exchange opinions! Total, total."

"Okay, I won't be careless anymore. I think the troops led by Prince Zhongshun are in danger. Although it is not a formal battle today, the Jurchens we fought were so miserable, and we didn't see him dragging Prince Zhongshun and others away. To threaten us from the front shows three things!"

"Which three points?"

Shen Qianhu asked immediately;

"The first point is that all the people the prince led were killed in the battle, and none of them were captured. The second point is that they were caught without knowing their identities, but it is unlikely. If they don't reveal their identities as Jurchens, they are slaves. These officials Master, can you bear it? The third is that some of them died in the battle, and the others escaped, but now I don’t know where they have fled?”

Shen Baichuan also thought carefully about Zhang Jinyu's words. All three of these points were possible. Before, he was concerned and confused, and he lost his sense of proportion for a moment. Now think about it carefully;

It is unlikely that all the soldiers died in battle. It was the general's elite bodyguards who could still break through.

It is possible to be caught, but judging from today's siege, the chance is not very high.

Then escape, run south!

It still takes three days to get to Pingyao City from the south, otherwise we have to wait?

"What the general said makes sense. If we wait a little longer, we should break out to the south. The three-day journey from Pingyao City in the south to ours has already passed two days. We will know the news tomorrow. The letter will be sent by Fei Ge on the same day. arrive."

Shen Qianhu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as nothing happened.

"Shen Qianhu, don't think too much about good things. The general and prefect of Pingyao City have long since run away. It's better for me to send someone with 5,000 troops to defend the city temporarily, otherwise our escape route will be cut off. Don’t you know what’s going on?”

"What? No way? Prince Zhou didn't know that at the time?"

Shen Qianhu looked surprised. I really didn't know that the Imperial City Department of Pingyao City didn't send a message to Pingyang County.

"According to the deputy general in the reinforcements, they didn't enter Pingyao City at all. They came directly to our Pingyang. Those who broke through would definitely inquire about Pingyao City. If they knew that the guarding prefect had escaped, there were only ten thousand soldiers inside. If you, you Will you stay?"

"This, this! Damn it!"

Shen Qianhu was completely trapped by Zhang Jinyu's words. He was so frightened that he knelt down and hugged Zhang Jinyu's thigh.

"General Zhang, for the sake of our colleagues who have been together for so many years, please save me. I don't even know that the guard general of Pingyao City ran away, which means that the Imperial City Si Baihu there also ran away. I am This is a serious dereliction of duty, and you will be punished even if you are in the Imperial City Department."

Seeing Shen Qianhu kneeling with snot and tears, Zhang Jinyu hurriedly helped Shen Qianhu up, grabbed Shen Baichuan who was still about to kneel, and said sincerely;

"My brother Baichuan, there is no need to save or not, we have worked together for so many years and we are still talking about this. If I say it, then we are all grasshoppers on the same rope. It depends on whether you dare to do it or not!"

"Brother Zhang Xian, what do you think we should do? It's all for this sake. If they dare to be in the first grade of junior high school, I dare to be in the fifteenth grade."

Shen Baichuan gritted his teeth and answered,

Thinking that he had been cheated by his subordinate Baihu, Shen Baichuan also made up his mind to fight back fiercely. After all, this is the situation, no matter how bad it is, how much worse can it be.

Officials and generals of the city who leave their posts without permission will be beheaded in Dawu, not to mention that the Imperial City Secretary is a servant of the royal internal guard. It all depends on the emperor's mood.

Internally, the Imperial City Department implements a continuous sitting system. If there is no suitable excuse, it will be the end of the road and there will not be many days left.

"Okay, Brother Shen Shi is so happy. Then I will tell you that I want to be the only governor on the Luoyun Plain!"

After hearing this, Shen Baichuan looked at Zhang Jinyu with his eyes wide open in shock, and took a breath of air!

"You, you"
