There are still a lot of people in Kaifeng city and it is still very lively. However, the water transportation is blocked. After the Jin army robbed the people, there was no money, and there was a lot of business in the city. After Zong Ze defended Kaifeng, things calmed down for a while, and many refugees gathered in the city.

.

On the third day after entering the city, Wang Xiaolie took Cao Zhiyan, Yu Huan and Yang Shen out of the barracks and wandered around the city together.

After leaving Tielinying, we walked along the Cai River and unknowingly arrived at the opposite side of the Daxiangguo Temple. I saw a heavy flow of people on the other side of the river, and there were people selling all kinds of things on the street. Wang Xiaoxing said: "We are here

Let’s take a look at Xiangguo Temple. I don’t know how many days I will stay in Kaifeng City. I will need to buy everything for daily expenses, such as rice and noodles. I asked the price and made arrangements in advance.”

Yu Huan said: "In the past, when we were patrolling Dingdu, Duxun never cared about these things. When the army was short of food, they sent people out to the surrounding countryside to collect some. If they wanted to eat wine and meat, everyone had to find their own way."

"Isn't that just robbery?" Wang Xiaolie shook his head. "My father raised the army to save the country and save the people. How could he do such a thing? The day before yesterday, he stayed behind to reward some gold and silver. If you are more careful, you can

Hold on for a few days."

Yu Huan said nothing. There were only a few thousand troops under Zongze in the city, but the number of troops under other leaders was unknown. How many troops could survive in Kaifeng by buying? The Bianhe River water transportation had been cut off for several months, and there were no

When food comes in from other places, there is already a shortage of food.

After crossing the Xiangguosi Bridge and arriving at the Bian River, it suddenly became lively.

Looking at the surrounding scene, Yang Shen said: "Kaifeng Mansion is indeed the residence of the Emperor! It was especially prosperous after the Li Rebellion! Last year, the officials took us only outside Kaifeng City and were not allowed to enter the city. Today, with the help of Xiao Sheren, we saw

Such a prosperous scene!”

Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "Prosperity is prosperity, but we can't afford most of the things here."

Prices in Kaifeng are now dozens of times higher than before, and the little money I have can’t buy much. A few people are just taking a look.

After walking a few steps, suddenly a crowd gathered in front of me. Some people shouted: "The fight is starting! The fight is starting!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "At this time, are there still people fighting in Kaifeng City? Let's go up and see who is so domineering!"

Several people quickly stepped forward and squeezed into the crowd. They saw two groups of soldiers in the middle, one with more than ten people and the other with only eight people. They were shouting and cursing. Wang Xiaolie, the leader of the group of more than ten people, recognized him.

It is Peng Tan in Ding Jinjun.

At this time, like a fighting rooster, he pointed at the people in front of him at the top of his lungs and cursed: "Straight bitches, you guys are inferior to pigs and dogs! Why do you want to rob the things that grandpas like?!"

A general on the opposite side crossed his arms and said coldly: "You guys are useless, you are useless in battle, and you dare to rob people's property! This is Kaifeng Mansion, where you run wild? No one else dares to take care of it, grandpa will take care of it."

!”

Wang Xiaolie heard this and said to Yu Huan: "Where is Kaifeng Mansion? There are still people who dare to be robbers on the street?"

Yu Huan was a little helpless: "Xiao Sheren, what kind of robbers are you? As long as you have a knife in your hand and a military uniform on your body, it's not robbery. What's wrong with soldiers fighting to collect things? If we don't collect from the people, what will we eat?"

Wang Xiaolie was stunned for a moment and said: "In that case, who in Kaifeng city dares to do business?"

Yu Huan said: "Everyone who does business here has a backer. If you come to rob, someone will naturally support you. If you don't have a backer, you must find a backer before you show up, otherwise you will definitely be robbed. Today's situation, I think it is Peng Tanpeng

Here comes the new businessman."

Wang Xiaolie nodded, with some understanding and some confusion in his heart. Why didn't Zongze stay behind like this and not care about him? Then he thought about it, how many people did Zongze have? Can he manage it? There are so many troops in the city, so there won't be any trouble.

It's already a big deal to cause a big mess.

Zongze's official career was not smooth. After becoming a Jinshi, it took nearly thirty years to reach Dengzhou Tongjian. Speaking of which, Wang Xiaolie's father Wang Rudai was better than him. When the Jin people went south, Zongze was appointed as the magistrate of Cizhou.

During the turbulent period when the Jin people went south, he concurrently served as the general manager of the rebel capital in Hebei. When Kaifeng City was captured by the Jin soldiers, Zhao Gou happened to be in Hebei and was appointed marshal of the world's military forces. Zongze, who persisted in resisting the Jin, was appointed deputy marshal.

Later, the second emperor went hunting in the north, Zhao Gou came to the throne, and Zongze was appointed to stay in Tokyo.

It was during the three or four years when the Jin army went south that Zongze quickly grew from an inconspicuous mid-level official like Tongpan to a stay-at-home in Tokyo and became an important minister of the country. His prestige was established in the process of fighting against the Jin.

He was not an important minister of the Song Dynasty before.

This experience made Zongze different from other people in the court. When Zhao Gou first rose up, Zongze made great contributions. But when the scale began to take shape, the officials in the court did not take him seriously. Zongze actually had some problems in Kaifeng.

Awkward.

The two groups were in the middle of the street, and the quarrel got louder and louder. After Wang Xiaolie heard the content of their quarrel, he realized that there were Han Shizhong's soldiers on the opposite side of Pengtan. Han Shizhong was defeated in Wenjia Temple in Luoyang, and he deeply hated Ding Jin for avoiding the battle. Returning to Kaifeng,

The two armies often fought and fought endlessly. Today's scene has actually happened many times. Especially when Wang Xiaolie killed the Jin soldiers who defeated Ding Jin and then defended Gong County, Han Shizhong's soldiers looked down on Ding Jin even more.

After a while, Peng Tan couldn't bear it any longer. Seeing that he was outnumbered, he drew his sword and gun and attacked.

Wang Xiaolie looked at it and shook his head: "When facing the Jin people, these people ran away. Now they have the courage to face their own people."

After hearing this, Yu Huan's face turned red and he lowered his head without saying anything. Isn't this what the gang of thieves in Kaifeng City were like? He was the same before when he was under Ding Jin. After following Wang Xiaolie and winning the battle, he became different from before.

.

Han Shizhong's army was a regular army, derived from the original Western Army of the Song Dynasty. How could it be compared to Peng Tan and others? In just a few rounds, they beat Peng Tan and others back steadily. On the streets of Kaifeng, they were merciless.

There are just no dead people.

Peng Tan was kicked in the chest by the general on the opposite side and rolled twice on the ground. He suddenly jumped up from the ground and felt a tightness in his chest. He wanted to go up and fight to the death, but the opponent was too powerful, so he hesitated for a moment.

He suddenly turned his head and saw Yu Huan in the crowd. He couldn't help but be overjoyed and shouted: "Yu Huan, why don't you come up and help?"

Yu Huan looked at Wang Xiaolie, shook his head and said, "I am now a soldier under General Wang. How dare I make trouble in the street?"

Peng Tan was stunned for a moment before he saw Wang Xiaolie. Seeing Wang Xiaolie's face sinking like water and his eyes like lightning, he was speechless for a moment.

After a while, Peng Tan said: "Xiaosheren, you were unconscious at first, and it was only after we patrolled with you to march that you recovered. Speaking of which, we were once in the same army and had the same friendship. Come forward

Can you help me?"

Wang Xiaolie said in a deep voice: "Only when we fight together to kill the enemy can we have the friendship of comrades. That day in Yong'an, as soon as you saw the Jin army, you fled in all directions, regardless of our army behind you. What do you mean by the friendship of comrades?"

Peng Tiha, don’t talk like this, it will destroy my prestige!”

After hearing this, Han Shizhong's men on the opposite side applauded together.

Peng Tan blushed and said angrily: "Even if you can't defeat the Jin Army, the Du Xun is still the Kaifeng Du Xun! You are doing this, are you not afraid of being blamed by Du Xun? Also, you can take in Yu Huan and others from the Du Xun.

, How can Du Xun spare you?"
