Chapter 141 All the way east, to Yangzhou, the United States
Chapter 141: The two girls decide, the young man Ming Yang
The two of them were sitting across from each other when they saw Cui Lie saying: "This time, it is the intention of Prime Minister Zhang. According to Prime Minister Zhang, in addition to being able to write beautiful articles, I, the students of Song Dynasty, should also be able to contribute to the country. Now Song Dynasty
The Jin War is at its peak, so let these students go and experience the military front of our Song Dynasty..."
"Moreover, it is not students from all state capitals. There are no students from the south. Basically, they are from some state capitals bordering the North and the Kingdom of Jin. There are only seven or eight state capitals in total. And I am Suizhou.
In it.”
The two people listened helplessly, and they could not refute this kind of thing at all. Although they felt that doing so would not be of much benefit to the current Song Dynasty. However, if there was a decree from above, they could only act in accordance with the decree.
"I guess it's just a formality. Students focus on their studies, so they should review seriously. Moreover, we can't miss next year's scientific examination! If most of my Northland students are expelled because of this line of work, no matter who I am,
How can we stop when we are still a group of people? If there is a stalemate, even the court will not be able to explain it."
"We don't need to worry about this matter. Tomorrow we will spread the word of advice, and we will arrange carriages, horses, and soldiers to protect them as soon as possible. This journey is thousands of miles eastward. If we go alone with these actions, it is simply unrealistic. Fortunately, Zao
General Bian of the Yang Army is also in Huainan. I ordered my son to go there with the letter and let General Bian take care of him, so nothing will happen."
The two discussed it and went to prepare separately.
When the news reached the Shao Family Courtyard, both Shen Tang and the two daughters were extremely surprised and asked the new imperial examination son to go to the battlefield. This was the first time in history.
"I don't know what the imperial court is thinking. They are the pillars of the Song Dynasty. How can they take risks for no reason?" The two women were naturally extremely opposed. They thought that their husband was focused on scientific research, at least in a short period of time, there would be no difference at all.
There would be no danger, but who would have thought that this disaster would come from the sky, and the imperial court issued such a strange decree.
Shen Tang didn't care, and even somewhat agreed with it. If these talented people who only know how to recite romantic stories can see the cruelty of the North and the tragedy of war, maybe there will be a few loyal and patriotic people in the future.
Of these people, there are only a few flatterers.
"Madam, Mu Yu, don't worry! We will have the support of the government when we go there, and it is probably just for a group of nobles to see, and we will not really let a bunch of scholars who can't lift their hands go to the battlefield. So, we are just running around.
It's just a trip, there will never be any danger." Shen Tang naturally comforted the two girls.
The two girls' expressions softened slightly after hearing this, but they saw that Shao Muyu pondered for a moment and then suddenly said: "Sister, since Mr. Shen is heading east, how about we go all the way?"
"Mu Yu has not been home for a long time, and she also misses her old father at home. In this case, my sister followed me to Taihu Lake, and I happened to be with Mr. Shen all the way."
Shao Muyu's words made Liu Xiangling happy! Taihu Lake is also in the east, and opposite Huainan from north to south, just on the same road.
Shen Tang had no choice but to accept the kindness of the two girls, so he had no choice but to agree.
The next day, Shen Tang went to Suizhou City to meet with Xu Liang and Cui Lie and mentioned the matter. The two were fine with it. Shen Tang and Shao Muyu traveled east, and naturally there were people to support them along the way, as they had arranged.
If the army and the army were much more reliable, why bother to stop them? Moreover, the two armies only needed to meet up in Yangzhou without delay, so Shen Tang could just go on his own.
The time set by the government for Juzi's trip was on the morning of September 18th. After Shen Tang participated in a grand farewell ceremony held by the government, he returned to the other courtyard again.
Naturally, a large group of students cannot travel as fast as Shen Tang and others traveling alone. Therefore, Shen Tang and others set a date of departure of twenty days.
But the day before Shen Tang and others left for Huainan, Lu Feng from Yingzhou sent people again.
"Greetings, my lord!"
The person who came was a young boy who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, accompanied by two men.
This boy's name was Mingyang, but he was one of the victims who stayed behind. Lu Feng saw that he was smart, so he often entrusted him with some trivial matters. This time he sent him here, and also asked Shen Tang to take a look at Ming Yang. Yang means.
Mingyang is here, firstly, on behalf of all the brothers, to congratulate Shen Tang for winning the prize.
The news of Shen Tang High School's liberation has already spread to Yingzhou, and all the brothers are naturally overjoyed! One state's liberation will greatly increase the chances of being named on the gold list in the future. Shen Tang has a bright future, and Lu Feng and others really celebrated it. .
Second, he brought a letter from Lu Feng. In the letter, he described the situation of everyone after Shen Tang’s last arrangement.
Teng Wu and Cheng Yuhu had already led people to the north, and fought several battles with some Jin soldiers. With a group of Wei troops relying on them, although they were slightly injured, they still won a great victory. Moreover, with their only The reputation of the team continued to spread, and some scattered rebels also came to join them. By now, Cheng Yuhu and others had gathered about two thousand people.
Cheng Yuhu and others were in the light, and the Wei army was in the dark. These two teams turned the entire Tangzhou and Biyang areas upside down. However, at this time, there was a power vacuum of Jin soldiers here, and for a while the Jin people had no time to take care of them.
Following them into the Northland, there was also a separate caravan. What surprised Shen Tang was that the leader of this caravan turned out to be Shen Ming.
According to Lu Feng's letter, Shen Ming has changed greatly during this period. Not only is he more calm, but he also has high prestige among his brothers. When Lu Feng mentioned that someone was going to the North to do business, Shen Ming Ming immediately recommended himself. According to him, he wanted to make some achievements before coming to meet Shen Tang.
Shen Tang was a little silent about Shen Ming's choice. He didn't know whether it was good or bad for Shen Ming and his third aunt. At least, in the Shen family village, although life was difficult, it was still enough to survive. a peaceful life.
However, fate has always been a magical thing. Now, he can only ask Lu Feng to take care of Shen Ming to prevent him from having any accidents.
The last thing is to establish the message channel.
Following Shen Tang's suggestion last time, Lu Feng immediately took action after returning. He sent out all his dozen or so key brothers, and with a lot of money spilled out, within a short period of time, this information network was the beginning of It has a certain scale. However, although the framework has been erected, it will still take a very long time to really put this channel into operation and form a climate.
Looking at it in his mind, the first batch of news points established by Lu Feng were exactly the key positions mentioned by Shen Tang.
Not to mention Lin'an and Shanyin, Yangzhou and Sizhou in the Huainan area have all sent people there. Even in the city of Suizhou, which is just around the corner, there is a restaurant owned by Lu Feng. spy.
