Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 357 Send him on the road

Zhao Huan never expected that Zhao Gou would pounce on his child and Zhang Wan.

He even spared women and children, but he didn't let them go!

But Li Gang was the closest to Zhang Wan, stepped forward with a brisk step, stopped Zhao Gou, turned his upper body halfway, and handed out his elbow.

Li Gang was tall and big, while Zhao Gou walked all the way, his face was yellow and thin, he was very haggard, and there were shackles on his body, and Li Gang's elbow directly pushed him to the chin.

boom!
Zhao Gou fell straight on the ground, and it took him a long time to get up in a trance.

And Li Gang's other hand held Zhang Wan who was so frightened by Zhao Gou that he almost fell down.

No one expected this scene.

Zhang Wan looked at Zhao Gou in dismay, with tears in her eyes, and murmured, "Husband, why are you like this..."

Li Gang shook his head, this woman actually still had a little fantasy about Zhao Gou, but the reality is that Zhao Gou, when he was dying, still did not forget to drag her own woman and child into the water.

"It's okay." Li Gang helped Zhang Wan up, and smiled wryly.

Only then did Zhang Wan cry and said, "Thank you."

When Zhao Huan saw this scene, he called it over, there was love in Zhang Wan's eyes!

The Song Dynasty did not prohibit remarriage, and there was no chastity archway, this strange thing, so Zhang Wan remarried Li Gang, it is legally feasible.

This guy is a bit lucky!There was Li Shishi in the front and Zhang Wan in the back.

Zhao Huan looked at Zhao Gou who looked like he was insane and his face was covered with blood, and shook his head helplessly. He was very strange.

Being able to make this move was unexpected, but within reason.

Before that, Zhao Gou wrote letters more than once, asking Zhang Wan and Xing Bingyi to bring their children to Lin'an to find him.

Zhao Huan's Imperial City Secretary is not just for nothing, so Zhao Huan clearly knows that Zhang Wan has written back many times to reject him, and has repeatedly persuaded Zhao Gou not to act in a separatist regime.

This is a woman who understands righteousness, which is why Zhao Huan made the decision to enshrine Zhao Yang as the Duke of the State and receive a salary.

Zhao Gou's subsequent letters were full of resentment. Afterwards, there were wars everywhere, and Zhao Gou no longer wrote to Bianjing.

And Zhao Huan never expected that Zhao Gou would act like this at this time.

When the brave are angry, they turn their swords on the stronger; when the cowardly are angry, they turn their swords on the weaker.

Zhao Huan suddenly understood this sentence more deeply.There is no doubt that everyone present is strong!including myself.

Behind him stood five personal servants.

There are only three weak people, all women and children.

"Send him on his way." Zhao Huan waved his hand.

Everyone from Xing Prison and the Division of Tixing filed out, released Zhao Gou from the shackles, and put Zhao Gou into a black coffin.

Zhao Huan's death was very humane.

There was no beheading, no decapitation, and no poisoned alcohol.

Just put Zhao Gou in the coffin and seal it with soil.

A very decent way to die, without dying in public.No pull ribs either.

In fact, the most terrifying period of time in life is the period of waiting to die.

He knew he was going to die, but he couldn't change it.

And Zhao Huan's decision only made Zhao Gou taste a little more of the fear of death.

Zhao Gou was struggling, but it was of no use at all. Three or five big men threw Zhao Gou into the coffin and tied him up.

The Xing jailers nailed the coffin to death. Zhao Huan checked it and found that the ventilation holes were good.

"If you want to take revenge on me, train Zhao Tan and his brother who is about to be born." Zhao Huan said something to Zhang Wan and walked out of Xing Prison.

Wei Chengen and Cheng Chu will take care of the coffin here for seven days, and will not return to the palace until they personally bury it and seal it.

Zhao Huan didn't think what he did was so cruel, especially after Zong Ze narrated the tragic situation on Jingbei Road, he didn't feel any burden in his heart.

If Zhao Gou didn't die tragically, how could he explain to the suffering people in the south?
"Then what's the matter, I'm going to move the sandbags." Yue Fei looked around and asked in a low voice.

He had seen a lot of human tragedies in the north, and Zhao Gou died in such a decent way, in his opinion, there was really nothing to see.

In a village on Yunzhong Road, he once saw a woman who died on a stove, holding the broken edge of an iron knife in her hand, and slit her throat to commit suicide.

Yue Fei didn't know how desperate the woman and child were to make such a decision.

Compared with Zhao Gou's grievance and the grievance of the people in the North, it is really a world of difference.

Only with the rise of a big country can the dignity of the small people come. Zhao Gou's actions are weakening the Great Song Dynasty.

If he is not dead, how can he be worthy of the tragic death of the people in the Northland?

In Yue Fei's eyes, is there anything more important than keeping the embankment?
Of course there are, such as protecting officials.

"Sandbags..." Zhao Huan felt a little dizzy, I'm avenging you!

He patted his forehead with a headache. In Yue Fei's eyes, Zhao Gou was not as good as a sandbag.

"Lieutenant Yue, the Hejian military's flying army has initially formed an army. Now that Beiyi is closing the pass, are the Hejian soldiers capable of fighting?" Zhao Huan also asked in a low voice.

The wind and rain were still loud, and only Zhao Huan and Yue Fei heard these two sentences.

"Officials, the Hejian soldiers have just formed an army at this time, but they are not enough to fight." Yue Fei looked around and said, "The Hejian soldiers are better than the Forbidden Army if they go to the battlefield without actual combat. The Victory Army is inferior."

Yue Fei answered Zhao Huan's question, but stated his own point of view.

Zhao Huan also knew that he was a little impatient, he sighed, and said: "Then suppress bandits everywhere, starting from Jingji Road, attacking in all directions. Is it okay to fight bandits?"

"That's a complete problem. After this hurricane, we can start our journey." Yue Fei said in a low voice.

Yue Fei knew why the officials whispered the question.

There are [-] flying troops in Hejian, and [-] reserve troops to fill in the vacancies at any time.

And the fighting power of the Hejian Army represented Zhao Huan's current strength to a certain extent.

What was the Song Dynasty like in the past?False on the outside and strong on the inside, nearly 40 imperial troops were deployed near Gyeonggi Road.

What is Da Song like now?Strong on the outside and dry on the inside!

Han Shizhong, Li Yanxian, Yang Xinzhong, Zhong Shizhong, and Zong Ze all have stronger troops than the officials!
In Yue Fei's view, this behavior of the officials is undoubtedly a big gamble.

The betting frontier army is just like the original Zhong family army, and the betting side generals are just like the Zhongshi teacher, they are all loyal and dedicated to the country.

But if something goes wrong, the tens of thousands in Zhao Huan's hands are simply not enough for the frontier army to feed.

Only then did Yue Fei whisper to the officials about the true strength of the Hejian Army.

And the officials actually want the Hejian army to go out to suppress the bandits instead of staying in Hejian to defend the capital. From Yue Fei's point of view, this is another gamble!
Regardless of any checks and balances, he does his best for the affairs of the country.

"The officials are wise." Yue Fei said sincerely.

Zhao Huan was taken aback, how could he be wise again?

He didn't see any external strength at all.

The people he used have a loyalty value of [-] to Da Song, and now their loyalty value to him is also very high.

There is no possibility of mutiny at all.

In Zhao Huan's eyes, the frontier army and the Hejian army were all the same, soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty.

The reason why he whispered was because he had been shouting all day today, and his throat was a little sore.

However, Yue Fei is a man who speaks his mind and stands upright.

Zhao Huan still felt flattered to be praised by him.

"Lieutenant Yue, tell me, you have to change the problem of going to the battlefield and leading the soldiers in the future. A military officer of the sixth rank should not take risks easily. If you die, there will be no leader among the dragons, and the army will not be defeated?"

Zhao Huan persuaded Yue Fei's fighting style.

Yue Fei asked puzzledly: "When a minister dies, there will be a replacement of adjutants, and when an adjutant dies, there will be a replacement of subordinates. Isn't this what the officials ordered? How can there be no leader?"

Are you justified in cheating?
Zhao Huan was also helpless, Yue Fei, a human weapon who charged forward in every battle, prevented him from personally killing the enemy, it was too difficult.

"Waiting for the flying army in the river, the time when the fish leaps over the dragon's gate and soars its wings," Zhao Huan said.

Let Yue Fei go to move the sandbags.

Watching killing people, in fact, is really boring to someone like Yue Fei who only wants to fight for the day and night.

Zhao Huan did not stop his pace of killing, and Qin Hui, Wang Boyan, Kong Yanzhou and others were waiting for him to behead him at the execution ground.

It was a pity for Zhao Huan that there was one Du Chong missing in the execution ground, and this bastard actually surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin and went to the Kingdom of Jin by boat.

Let this big show have a slightly imperfect curtain call, but it doesn't matter, one day, Jin Guo will spit out this bastard.

The teacher comes out of no name, morale -1.

Isn't this Du Chong the best name to be a teacher?
Back then when the Kingdom of Jin went south to fight against the Great Song Dynasty, wasn’t it also through the Great Song Dynasty that it was used to win over Zhang Jue, the traitor of Jin Guopan?

Repay him in his own way.

"At three quarters noon! Execution!" Li Ruoshui, governor of Kaifeng, was also a very upright person.

Seeing that the official's house had arrived, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon.

　Finally sent Zhao Gou on the road!
