The lower level is focused on maneuvering the boat, and the upper level is focused on fighting, which is far better than ordinary river boats... The only thing is that the water needs to be open to be useful, so this time when entering the Guangji River, be careful and careful along the way... But the official

Don’t worry, once you enter the Bianshui River, it will be more safe because the Bianshui River is wider. When you enter the Yellow River, it will be like a fish entering the water, and it will continue to flow down the river. The Jin army will definitely be caught off guard."

Zhao Jiu shook his head, obviously not thinking about the nonsense he had already heard from Chen Gui: "How did Liangshanbo get so many ships...can you build them yourself?"

"They were all left behind during the encirclement and suppression by the army that day... It is said that there were originally fifty or sixty ships. After the defeat, about forty ships were left behind. Thirty ships were sent out this time." Yang Yizhong looked slightly embarrassed.

"It's a good thing." Zhao Jiu sighed softly.

"..."

"I remember you captured a county magistrate on the way?" Zhao Jiu suddenly turned around and asked again.

"Yes." Yang Yizhong quickly answered. "It is expedient. In order to open navigation as soon as possible, I have no choice but to do it."

"I know what's going on... The new Jinshi, he only cares about being an official and forgets about doing things... I'm asking you, where is he?"

"Shang is being escorted from the rear and is about to be handed over to the provincial capital for questioning."

"Beheaded." Zhao Jiu suddenly said simply.

Yang Yizhong was stunned for a moment: "...official family?"

"Behead him." Zhao Jiu repeated. "Regardless of whether it is true or false inside and outside, this is a serious military matter, not a civil matter. We cannot indulge them, and there is no need to hand it over to the capital. I am the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses. It is a legitimate military law to kill him today!"

It doesn’t violate the system!”

Yang Yizhong still hesitated: "Guan family, this is a new Jinshi..."

"Then we have to behead." Zhao Jiu continued to repeat. "Why was it that when I was inspecting the Wubao defense line, I could behead everyone for corruption, and I was preparing to kill the general and commander, but now I couldn't kill a county magistrate who had actually misunderstood the military situation? Behead him.

The winner is the new Jinshi!"

Yang Yizhong nodded slowly, turned around and summoned Zhai Biao, the hard-working man, to deliver the order. After explaining clearly, when he turned around, he hesitated to speak.

"Just say whatever you want to say..." Zhao Jiu was impatient for a moment.

"Guan Jia, I heard the officials talking to Taiwei Zhang at Daxiangguo Temple before, and I wanted to dissuade him at that time. However, I was embarrassed by my status, so I couldn't help but hesitate..." Yang Yizhong took the initiative to remain silent for a moment, and then he spoke frankly. "

I think the officials are too tolerant of a few handsome ministers."

"Aren't you good, You Rong?" Zhao Jiu was silent for a moment and then said. "It's wartime, and we need people to work hard..."

"Of course it's a good thing, but too much is too much." Yang Yizhong said sincerely. "Besides, the officials treated the civil servants a little harshly..."

"Is this what you want to say?"

"I...I think it is a good thing for the officials to pay equal attention to civil and military affairs, but with more than a hundred years of tradition, even the military ministers themselves have become accustomed to different paths of civil and military affairs. Therefore, in some things, the officials think that a bowl of water is fair, but the people of the world do not.

They all feel that the officials are bent on treating one party harshly." Yang Yizhong became more sincere. "The officials favor commanders and military generals because they have to fight in wartime. This is okay, but in wartime, there is no need for civil servants to work hard.

? Moreover, the imperial court has its own system of rewards and punishments. When giving rewards, the officials should be extra kind to the commanders, which will naturally convince the commanders. But when punishing, one should not be aggravated without authorization to cause misunderstandings.

...This is my humble opinion, and I hope the officials will not be angry."

"This kind of talk, one after another, have you prepared it in your mind? Do you, Yang Yizhong, want to be a famous official?" Zhao Jiu finally laughed. "But why did you choose to say it in the middle of the night?"

"I can only be a treacherous minister in this life, how can I become a famous minister?" Yang Yizhong finally had no choice. "It is not my turn to say these words. It's just that today I am a bit presumptuous. I feel that the official's attitude should be saved."

The desire to do great things will be the right time to employ people in the future, so that’s all.”

Zhao Jiu nodded: "Listen to your words, I will bear with you for the sake of the country. I will be patient for a moment... and send the magistrate to the capital for disposal!"

Yang Yizhong immediately responded and left.

In this regard, Zhao Jiu just shook his head... In other words, Zhao Guanjia didn't think Yang Yizhong's words were very reasonable at all. Compared with before, he was indeed not very kind to civil servants, but the problem was that compared with the Jin people opposite, regardless of

No matter what, the civil servants of the Song Dynasty were always treated as if they were in heaven.

What's more, he also treated his collaborators among civil servants with great kindness.

As for why he still listened to Yang Yizhong's nonsense advice, he still said the same thing. During the war, when the commander-in-chief and generals were required to sacrifice their lives, it was time for them to be graceful - Zhao Jiu was not the magistrate, but his imperial armed forces.

The number one figure is Yang Yizhong.

As a military general, Yang Yizhong also naturally possesses the third power as a spy leader. It is a fact that he is attacked by foreign and Korean forces on weekdays. It is also a fact that he has taken the blame for Zhao Guan's family many times. To kill this county magistrate tonight, he is under the greatest pressure.

It wasn't him Zhao Jiu, but Yang Zhengfu who arrested this person from the beginning.

that is it.

On the 13th day of the twelfth lunar month, at noon, I heard that more than 30 small artillery carts had been successfully loaded onto ships. Zhao Guan's family, who had pretended to go back to sleep last night, returned to the Bianhe River. However, they led the ministers from the capital and Zhang Rong, who had worked hard all night, and went to the battle this time. Several leaders of the Liangshan Bo navy bid farewell.

"There is no need to worry about the defeat of this battle. I will not go to the front line to cheer for Captain Zhang." Zhao Jiu held Zhang Rong's hand and smiled easily. "Let Yu Yunwen, a new scholar in the science, accompany me instead of going to the river with Captain Zhang to observe the success or failure. I am waiting for news in Beijing, you can just fight hard."

Zhang Rong neither put his hands on his hips nor smiled, but responded seriously: "Not to mention blocking the Jin people on the Yellow River, which would have been a better way. I just say that the officials are so loyal to us, and we should do the same. It is only right for the officials to put their swords at both ends and fight hard."

Many ministers and ministers by the riverside couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

But Zhao Jiu just nodded repeatedly, let go of the opponent's hands, and said nothing.

Zhang Rong didn't want to say anything, so he just turned around and jumped on the first big ship flying his flag, and ordered the ship to start the water wheel. When the ship slowly started to start and the speed increased, he suddenly thought of something, and directly stepped on the water wheel. On the deck, he bowed in the direction of the river embankment: "Guardian, I see that the people in Tokyo are in great inconvenience. After we pass, please repair the water gates, bridges, and ditches!"

Before Zhao Jiu could respond, the ship was unstoppable and had already sailed away. Then dozens of ships started in sequence, followed by more than a hundred small boats, and they went down the river in front of them, directly out of the city.

The fleet passed the city wall and entered the Jinming Pond outside the city. Even the flags were no longer visible.

"Imitate Li Yanxian's 'mainstay' flag and make a flag of the same shape as 'Practice for Heaven'." Zhao Jiu didn't hesitate and turned around to give instructions. "After this battle, no matter what the outcome is, send it to Captain Zhang." .”
