At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 225 Influence
"The guilty minister Yu Xiangdong pays homage to the general." Yu Xiangdong held Sheng He's head in his hands and bowed down.

"The magistrate has made great contributions to presenting the city, what crime is he guilty of?" Cui Wulang helped Xiangdong stand up and said: "You killed the Tartar officials to protect the city, which shows your loyalty and will be rewarded by the court."

"Thank you, General." Yu Xiangdong stood up doubtfully.

Surrender is also an adventure, and the final result remains to be seen. But as of now, we can only try our best to cooperate.

On the glue, the Song army got off the boat, carrying muskets and pushing artillery. The eyes of Glue County were twitching.

Just use gunpowder to break the ice and ask you if you are afraid.

Of course, the reason why Zhang Shijie decisively sent Yu Zhanchi was because the ice surface of the glue was not thick, and he could break the ice and sail without consuming too much gunpowder. Otherwise, it would be better not to blow up all the way.

After entering the county government office, Yu Zhanchi sat down in the main seat and said, "Yu Zhixian, how many families of masons are there in the city?"

"There are more than ten registered households, but this matter is not difficult and ordinary people can also do it." Yu Xiangdong replied.

"Let the people know that Master Wang has recruited one thousand craftsmen, and they will pay him thirty coppers a day, and they will have enough to eat for breakfast and lunch." Yu Zhanchi said.

Everyone was stunned.

Hire?

Yu Xiangdong said: "General, just ask for corvee service. If it is to win the morale of the army, it will only be worth next year's corvee service."

Yu Zhanchi said: "You have come to vote on your own initiative. You have no choice but to become a herdsman official in the country. However, you must know that only land tax is collected in the villages of the country. The land tax and deed tax in the city are also reduced, and all miscellaneous taxes and corvee are exempted."

"It is indeed benevolent government to act like this, but how will the court support it?" Yu Xiangdong asked.

Yu Zhanchi smiled and said: "The government issued 500 million bonds and they were sold out in ten days. Does this know the prestige of the court?"

After talking about the power of the imperial court for a while, a notice was posted outside, and people immediately came to apply.

The government has surrendered, so what psychological burden does the workers have?

The city wall in Jiaoshui County is almost the same as that in Jiaoxi County. Yu Zhanchi did not rush to raise the wall, but built the city gate tower and turret first.

Using firewood, reeds and reeds as sinews and paste with mud and water, the garrison can not only keep out the cold, but also resist the bombardment of thunder.

As for the tactics of defending the city, they should be completely imitated in Jiaoxi County. As long as the city wall is controlled, there is no fear even if a small number of enemy troops break into the city.

A tree without a source of water and no roots will never last.

In three days, the city wall defense was completed, which made Yu Xiangdong's eyes jump.

"The general is really smart in his actions." Yu Xiangdong praised his family and then asked: "Do you want to continue repairing the city wall as a long-term plan?"

Yu Zhanchi said: "It's never necessary to waste people's money."

"In the coming spring, when the ice and snow melt, the turret and gate tower will inevitably collapse. How can we defend the city?" Yu Xiangdong said sincerely.

He had already surrendered, and he surrendered after killing the Mongols. If he was captured, his whole body would be preserved because of his ancestors' blessing, so he was very dedicated.

"When the ice and snow melt, the glue can be used to sail. How dare Yuanlu come over?" Yu Zhanchi chuckled.

I wish I could come here, but if I take the back road, there will be another wave of people.

Dengzhou has been a seaport since ancient times, and many naval forces have been stationed here, and Yuanting also stationed one here.

At this time, the sea surface has not yet frozen, and ships can still enter and exit.

On the pier, hundreds of people huddled together, looking eagerly at the hundreds of naval households in front of them.

"Everyone, don't be crowded, pay to board the boat, and don't miss anyone." Baihu shouted loudly.

"General, the ship's money is here, please let me board the ship quickly." "The southern soldiers can come at any time, don't dare to delay."

"I am the uncle of Zhao Qing, the official doctor at the time. General, let me board the ship quickly."

No matter how well-connected you are, unless you are really well-connected, you will have to pay to get on the ship. Each person has fifty guan, and if you are a child, you will not be deceived. The uncle of the doctor is not qualified enough to get a free pass.

Baihu waved, and soldiers came forward from behind.

The copper coins were counted and the gold and silver were weighed. The speed was not fast, and the people behind could not help but become anxious.

It cost a few hundred guan to support the family and support the family. Of course, people who can afford so much money have a temper, and they can't help but threaten them with bad words.

choke~
Baihu drew his sword and shouted: "If you can wait, just wait. If you don't want to wait, go to Yexian."

Ye County is located on the coast of the Bohai Sea, lined up with Jiao Shui and Jiao to the south, north and south. It is still in the hands of Yuanting.

Of course, rich people would not take the risk of going to Yexian, because the land route is difficult to travel, and people will disappear if they walk. It is far less safe and faster than the sea route.

Those who have no money or are reluctant to spend money can only go west from Ye County. At this time, the official roads in Ye County are full of people, and there is no end in sight.

Some soldiers kept shouting: "Twenty coins per person, a hundred coins for cattle and horses, and five hundred coins for cars. Pay the money to cross the border!"

Everyone paid the money honestly and no one dared to be verbose.

There are two corpses on the side of the road. Neither of them broke through the barrier. They just had a few arguments and were killed. Who wouldn't be frightened?

Of course, if you really don't have money, you can take the trail, but if you delay it for a long time, the loss on the road will be far more than the toll, and people who are not familiar with the road can easily get lost, or even be robbed and die.

In fact, not only Yexian County, but also Yidu and other places in the west have received the news. All the powerful people are planning to escape or are already on the road.

In their eyes, the Song Dynasty was an invader, and they would definitely burn, kill, and loot. It was better to go west or north to take shelter until the situation calmed down and turned around.

It has to be said that ethnic theory had a great impact on the Yuanting center, including Kublai Khan himself, but it did not have the expected effect at the local level.

The people at the bottom who are illiterate and have no access to ethnic theory are also frightened, but because they have no energy to go on the road, they have to stay at home day by day.

After basically stabilizing the glue defense, Yu Zhanchi led an army of [-] people northward to attack Yexian.

At this time, people's hearts are shaken, and it is a good opportunity to attack. If you take Ye County, you can encircle the territory east of Jiaoshui.

In Chengtian Mansion, Zhang Zhensun and others were making a speech.

"Shandong has been lost for more than a hundred years, and the people do not regard themselves as citizens of the country. When you go to Shandong, you should focus on regaining people's hearts." Zhao Shili often lectured.

"I obey the decree." Zhang Zhensun and others responded.

According to the regional division in the Northern Song Dynasty, Jiaoxi belonged to Mizhou, Jiaoshui belonged to Laizhou, and the easternmost one was Dengzhou.

In order to facilitate the united front, the Jingdong East Road General Manager's Office was re-established, with Zhang Shijie concurrently serving as the general manager, and Zhang Zhensun and Yang Zhenlong serving as deputy general managers.

In addition to the officials under the General Manager's Office, all the spies from the Imperial City Division also went north to Shandong to serve as local officials.

They had been training for a year but had not been assigned to go north, and now they were serving as grassroots officials in the township. They had not wasted the skills they had learned.

Of course, thanks to the Song Army's series of measures, their work will be carried out very easily, but it will take a lot of work for the people of Shandong to fully recognize their identity as Song people.

Just as the fleet was going down the river, a huge fleet sailed into Zhikukou. This was a fleet returning from the Japanese Kingdom, loaded with goods and soldiers.

Shandong was occupied and the northern land was shaken. In order to appease people's hearts, Yuanting urgently recruited the Japanese garrison to turn around.

That is to say, the Song army was busy transporting troops and supplies to Shandong, otherwise it had to be intercepted.
