Chapter 169 The Golden Army Comes North

Jiang Min walked into the military academy with Pan Jie, feeling that his eyes were not enough. He had never seen such a place before. Everything was in order, and even the trees planted on the road were generally tall and thick. People did not speak on the road, and their postures were standard. There were more than three people and they had to line up in a neat manner. Everyone wore the same clothes and were meticulous.

Seeing Jiang Min behind him a little restrained, Pan Jie said: "You will study here in the future, and you don't have to be too restrained. Here, you are the youngest now and everyone will give in to you."

Jiang Min whispered: "I see that it is neat and orderly here. How can I live in a country man like me?"

Pan Jie smiled and said, "Most of the students here are rural people. Don't they stay very well? You are a little restrained when you first come, so it's better to have a long time. It looks harsh here, and the sir is still quite kind."

Jiang Min nodded and relaxed a little.

Walking to a house, Pan Jie said to the guards: "Is Tan Zhiyuan here?"

The guard recognized Pan Jie and crossed his hands and said, "Return to Tige, the Zhiyuan is dealing with miscellaneous matters. If we want to meet, I will report it."

"It's hard work." After saying that, Pan Jie took Jiang Min to the side.

Soon after, the guard came out and said, "The zhiyuan asked the two to come in and talk."

Pan Jie took Jiang Min into the yard. This was a small yard. A jar of flowers and trees were planted in the middle, and some pomegranates, crabapples and the like were planted around. There was a row of houses on the north and the east, and someone came in and out.

As Pan Jie arrived outside the house in the middle, Jiang Min looked at a sign at the door of the house, which read the word "Zhiyuan" on it. He realized in his heart that this is the place where the person he was looking for today. This place is different from other places. Most of the names of the yamen are placed in the yamen, and few are placed in the official positions.

As Pan Jie entered the house, he saw a desk in the middle of the house, and an official in his forties sat behind him. There were two desks on each side, three of which were seated behind him, one was empty.

Seeing Pan Jie come in, the official in the middle hurriedly stood up and greeted him and smiled: "Why are there any time Tie has to come to me every day?"

Pan Jie said, "According to the defensive order, I will bring you a student." As he said that, he took out a book from his arms and handed it over.

Tan Zhiyuan took the book and read it. He pointed at Jiang Min and said, "Is it this boy?"

Pan Jie said: "That's right. Zhiyuan should not look at his young age, but his brain is very smart. The village opened a school to let the child recognize one or two thousand words in three years. The child recognized all the books in three months, and memorized the books. He was extremely talented. If he didn't care, it would be a pity that he would not have a future in his life. He specially sent it here to give him a chance to learn."

"It's rare, rare." Tan Zhiyuan looked at Jiang Min while looking at the text collection in his hand. After a while, he said, "Let's do this. He is still young, so he will learn some writing things first. He can train like other students every day, without having to study military affairs specifically. After a year or two, he will grow up, what should he do?"

Pan Jie smiled and said, "You can only know the arrangements of these things, and you will not interfere with the defense. The child is just younger, and the rest is based on the arrangements in the school. It is his blessing to learn it. If he doesn't learn well, he can't blame anyone."

Jiang Min stood aside, feeling a little nervous. He didn't know what these two people were talking about, but he understood that it directly affected his future life. Jiang Min didn't know what he wanted to learn here. He only knew what his father told him before he came out to try his best to have a future.

After discussion, Pan Jie said to Jiang Min: "From today, you will be studying here. If you have any things that cannot be solved, you can go to the yamen to find me. Most of the people here recognize me."

Jiang Min said yes. She watched Pan Jie say goodbye to Tan Zhiyuan reluctantly and go out.

Tan Zhiyuan put the document on the case and said, "It depends on your young age and is not suitable to learn military knowledge of fighting, fighting, killing and killing. In the past two years, I have learned some writing knowledge first. When I grow up, I will study like other students. Not long ago, I came back from a defense just to support Shanzhou and brought back a lot of writing, but I can't figure it out for a while. This month, I will arrange for you to organize your writing with others."

Jiang Min bowed her hands and said yes. She stood there, lowering her head, and couldn't stop rubbing the ground, looking a little nervous.

Wang Xiaoli sent Wang Ruohai to occupy Caizhou with his army. After handling the matter, he brought his people back to Xiangyang. It was mid-March, the weather was getting hot and there were many business.

In the magistrate's yamen, Wang Xiaoli looked at various documents. Now is the critical time for wheat growth. Where there is drought and where there is flooding, can water the drought areas be watered, and can water discharge the water in the flooding areas be discharged, and various documents. Before the New Year, Wang Xiaoli arranged that according to the wheat growth this year, various places reported water conservancy that needs to be repaired. Wherever there are, how much labor is needed, how much material is needed, and everything is complicated.

There is no shortage of water in Dengzhou, Xiangyang. As long as water conservancy is repaired, grain output can be greatly increased. This is a matter of benefit for hundreds of generations. Wang Xiaoli is the top priority of the local government. Only by repairing water conservancy can the planting area of ​​rice and wheat be expanded.

Chen Yuyi suddenly hurried in and said, "Defense, the Jingmen Army Jiezhi Army has sent a letter. The Jin army has broken Jiangling Prefecture and is coming towards Jingmen! According to the Jiezhi Army, the Jin army is going to enter Xiangyang Prefecture from Jingmen and then head north along the road!"

Wang Xiaoli stood up suddenly, took Jie Qian's document, looked carefully, put the document on the desk, and paced back and forth in the house.

After the Central Army attacking Jiangnan broke through Tanzhou, they kept looting on Hunan Road. They went north with only two routes. One was to go back from Huangzhou, and the other was to go to Xiangyang and Kaifeng Prefecture north. Wang Xiao hunted Shanzhou for a great victory, and they probably would have some concerns and would not leave their own place. Unexpectedly, the Jin army was extremely arrogant and still wanted to come to Xiangyang.

There is a waterway between Jiangling and Xiangyang, which is part of the north-south communication artery of the Song Dynasty. Materials from Sichuan and Shu areas were transported to Jiangling and mostly traveled north to Xiangyang Prefecture, which is an important passage. Du Fu's poem says: That is, go through Wu Gorge from Baxia and go down to Xiangyang to Luoyang. This is the road.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Xiaoliu said: "The Jiezhi Army means that we hope that we will send troops to Jingmen and stop the Jin army with him. We rescued Shanzhou a few days ago, so naturally we cannot refuse the Jiezhi Army."

Chen Yuyi said: "But we still have a large army in Jiangzhou, and there are not many troops left. Is it not enough to send troops to Jingmen? "

Wang Xiaoliu said: "There are only 10,000 Jin troops in the middle, mostly cavalry, and they do not have an advantage in the water net terrain of Jingmen. Concentrating 20,000 troops south to Jingmen, together with the Jiezhi Army, it should be able to block the Jin army. Moreover, Jingmen is not far from Xiangyang and has sufficient food and supplies, so there is no need to be as difficult as when saving Shanzhou. There is no need to discuss this matter, just raise an army immediately."

Chen Yuyi said that he was.

Wang Xiao’s hunting trail: “There are about 22,000 troops in Xinye and Dengzhou. With Niu Gao as the vanguard, I will lead the central army to the Jingmen army! The senator will lead 3,000 troops as the defenders and also protect food and grass.”

Chen and Yi crossed their hands and said, "The defense arrangement is much worse than when aiding Shaanxi."
