Chapter 1839 Ren Zijuan's Murderous Ambush

   Abai huddled in the carriage from a distance, observing the team that was shouting forward.

  The pronunciation of this group of people is obviously not from Gyeonggi. If I expected it to be correct, they should be from Shanxi.

   It has been two years since he came to the capital city. With the help of Natu, Abai quickly integrated into the capital city.

Originally, he could speak fluent Chinese when he was in Liaodong, but the Liaodong accent was heavier. After coming to the capital city, he was with Netu and other people who had already been completely Sinicized all day long. Everything was completely according to the standards of a Han Chinese. To ask for himself, Abai soon felt that he had become a Han Chinese through and through.

  Whether it’s the tone of voice, living habits, or the acquaintances and friends he met, Abai tried his best to adapt and integrate himself as a Han, and he felt that he did a good job.

As the concubine of his father Khan, Abai himself never expected to succeed his father Khan. There are so many brothers and sisters, no matter in terms of status, qualifications, military exploits, talent and strategy, Abai knew that he would not be ranked high, so He never dreamed of it.

  Arranging myself to come to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty to take over the replacement of Shan Specialist to master and understand the changes in the internal court affairs of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and to prepare for the next step of Jianzhou Jurchen's attack in Liaodong. This is not only important, but also a great risk.

   This job is not easy to do, and none of the brothers is willing to do it, but Abai did not refuse, and went happily.

   Staying in Hetuala is also difficult.

Although it is risky to come to Dazhou, but compared to the intrigue with his brothers in Hetuala, and the wits with Fei Yingdong, E Yidu, An Feiyangu and other important officials, Abai knows that he is not that material, and he can't play well. The contradictions among these people, especially Chu Ying, Dai Shan, and Huang Taiji, became more and more serious. Abai was even more unwilling to get involved in the increasingly fierce battle to win the favor of his father Khan.

  So coming to Dazhou is a relatively safe choice, avoiding Hetuala's swords and swords, and it is even simpler here.

  He even wrote a letter to the fourth brother, Tang Gu, asking him to come to Dazhou to do things with him, to avoid family disputes, because Tang Gu is also not that material.

  I learned from a letter from home that I was actually awarded the owner of the inlaid white flag, which was beyond Abai's expectation, and even made him a little apprehensive.

  It seems to others that it is an opportunity to be extremely prominent and even valued, but to him it is more like a shackle that may be caught in the fire.

  He even wanted to reject it. Of course, reason told him that it would be worse and more suspicious, so he could only accept it quietly.

  He also knows very well that as long as he doesn't return to Hetuala and manage the flag affairs, then the owner of the white flag is also honorable, and he won't attract hostility from other brothers.

   "Shu Ershan, these refugees are from Shanxi, how many are there?" A gust of cold wind blew over and penetrated into the gap of the felt curtain, making Abai shiver.

I stayed in Han for two more years, pampered and pampered, but I was a little afraid of the cold. I thought that I was not so expensive in Liaodong, and I went out hunting like it was freezing, but I didn’t see what happened. I don’t know if I can do it after I go back. I got used to it.

"My lord, I asked someone to inquire about it before. The people here are all from Shanxi. Most of them are from Weizhou and Guangchang, and they are all next to Baoding and Zhending. The drought there is serious, and many ordinary people can't live. If you go down, you can only run this way, it is said that tens of thousands of people have come."

  Shu Ershan was brought by Abai, and he has been in Handi for two years, but his accent has not changed yet, but his brain is very clever, and he pretends to be a drug dealer in Liaodong.

Normally, there is no need to go out to investigate by himself, but he is idle when he is idle. Abai is more willing to come out and investigate on the ground, to see how the situation in Gyeonggi is going to be when the North and the South are facing each other and the war is about to start. How, for the Jianzhou Jurchen, is there a chance, instead of sitting in the house and listening to the people below.

   "How many thousand people are there?" Abai frowned, 30,000 is tens of thousands, and 90,000 is also tens of thousands, the gap is huge.

   "I heard that there are 60,000 to 70,000 people, and some of them are still coerced from Baoding and Zhending. There are about 100,000 people in total."

  Shu Ershan is a delicate person, knowing that he has always been cautious, and every time he reports the situation here to his family, he is extraordinarily meticulous and accurate, and he refuses to fool things around.

  Abai thought about it silently. If there are more than 100,000 people, the pressure on the entire surrounding area of ​​Gyeonggi will not be small, and this year the entire northern region of Dazhou is suffering from droughts, but the degree varies from place to place, but harvest failures are common.

  He went to Tongzhou the day before yesterday, and even made a special trip to Tianjin Wei to investigate the situation himself.

  There is no doubt that the water transportation has been completely interrupted. Under such circumstances, how to ensure the supplies needed by the people in the capital is bound to be a big problem, and it should be more serious in the future.

   But now Dazhou is still mobilizing the Jizhen Army and Shanxi Army to go south, and the Northwest Army from Shaanxi is preparing to attack Shandong. How can they afford it?

   Do you want to eat on the spot? Isn't there going to be chaos in the local area?

   Abai frowned, he knew there must be some problems here.

He also heard that the Yuguan Port in Yongping Mansion was opened, and it is very prosperous now. Many ships from the south are going north by sea, but the sea is frozen in winter, so it is impossible to ship much, at least in February. In order to completely thaw, and he knew that Yuguan Port was just a dilapidated small fishing village two years ago, how much can it change?

According to the information obtained from the Horqin people, all the materials obtained by the Neikalkha people, Horqin people, Haixi Jurchen and even the Chahar people in the east were imported from Yuguan Port into the Eastern Mongolian grasslands, and even Liaodong Town was located in the west of Liaoning Province. The supplies of the Guangning and Ningyuan guards in the corridor also passed through Yuguan Port, which shocked him a little.

  When did Yuguan Port suddenly become so important? Moreover, Yuguan Port is still under Shanhaiguan. If Yuguan Port really becomes so prosperous, it means that the entire Liaoxi Corridor no longer needs to transport supplies by land from Gyeonggi, which will reduce transportation costs by at least 70%. This is simply too good for Dazhou Liaodong Town.

  Even if Yuguan Port is opened, it is still hundreds of miles from Yuguan to the capital to transport grain. Land transportation is also inconvenient and the loss is high. Can Yuguan Port alone support the needs of the entire capital?

Abai still feels that the sources of news in Han are not broad enough, and it seems too narrow to just stay in the capital city. Many of the news are fragmented and scattered, and it is difficult to gather them into a complete intelligence, so it is impossible to judge the situation. Variety.

   Just like the severe drought in the north, refugees flooded into the capital. According to the situation learned in the past, with such a large-scale influx of refugees, the capital has long been in chaos, but all this is not the case now.

Although it is still a bit messy, it is not that disorderly. Apart from public servants, there are obviously some characters belonging to the category of bachelors and tigers in the capital city who are also cooperating with the government to govern these people, and Po has a strategy, and once something happens, the gentleman and those idlers cooperate very tacitly, and the problem can be solved quickly.

Just now I saw two groups of people fighting for sharing porridge and rice. A shrill whistle sounded, and several idlers jumped out immediately. Just pressed it down.

  What does this mean? It shows that before the refugees entered Beijing, the government of the Great Zhou Dynasty already had a countermeasure plan, which also means that they were not worried about the material security pressure brought about by the arrival of so many immigrants, and they had even made preparations for it.

  From another point of view, it also means that the Great Zhou court did not think that the severe drought in the north and the refugees entering Beijing would affect their war against Shandong, so Abai had to be vigilant.

   According to the news from Hetuala, Father Khan plans to launch a full-scale attack on Liaodong in the late spring and early summer, and even wins over the Horqin and Chahar people.

Father Khan judged that the end of spring and the beginning of summer should be the most difficult time in the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and even the victims of the disaster in the north might launch a rebellion because of the lack of food, especially in the Shanshan and Shaanxi areas. This may deal a heavy blow to the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, even Forcing Liaodong Town to be unable to get the support of Guannei, then this is the opportunity for Jianzhou Jurchen.

   Judging from the current signs, the interruption of water transportation and the severe drought in the north do not seem to have had as much impact on the Great Zhou court as imagined. The Great Zhou court responded in an orderly manner, which is not a good sign.

On this point, I am afraid that I need to report to my father Khan immediately, and I cannot misjudge the strength of the Great Zhou court. Once the Great Zhou court can spare some energy to support Liaodong Town, then my father Khan's southern expedition may not be as smooth as imagined. There may even be setbacks.

  Thinking of this, Abai's thoughts became more complicated.

  From the bottom of his heart, after seeing the wealth and power of Da Zhou, he didn't think his father Khan's southern expedition was a wise move.

  Liaodong Town is just a corner of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is the frontier, which is also the nine sides. If the Great Zhou court can spare its hands and go all out to deal with the Jianzhou Jurchen, it will have no chance.

But Father Khan has always believed that there are many internal conflicts in the Great Zhou Dynasty. This time, the North-South dispute is the best opportunity. In any case, we must use the opportunity of the North-South confrontation in the Great Zhou Dynasty to open up the situation. As long as we can win Liaodong, then Jianzhou Jurchen will have an achievement The foundation of hegemony, this opportunity must not be lost no matter what, and we must do everything possible to mobilize all forces to achieve this goal.

  Thinking of this, Abai took a deep breath, and subconsciously asked, "Shu Ershan, when did Nanbianer agree to meet?"

  Shu Ershan was stunned, "Master, you can't go, it's too dangerous, things are not done carefully there, and the servant is afraid of making mistakes,..."

   "No, I have to meet in person to find out the situation." Abai shook his head resolutely, "Also, please contact the Southwest side as soon as possible, I think we are still a little too optimistic."

   The second update, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass!
