Son of Song Dynasty

Chapter 256 Escape
Unexpectedly, his words angered an old general, Kan Kui.

Kan Kui is Liu Youhu's wife and the uncle of the city's commander-in-chief Kan Jun. He is a Han Chinese, nearly sixty years old, with gray beard and hair.

When he heard that Liu Youhu actually ordered to resist, he immediately cursed out of anger.

"Liu Youhu, you bastard, the Khitan has repeatedly violated the border, but you colluded with it and connected with foreign countries."

"Now that King Qi of the Song Dynasty is here, you want us to go out of the city to fight without end. How can such a rebel be my official in Fenzhou? I might as well kill you first and hand it over to Mr. Zhao Yuanzuo to return to Beijing to apologize."

After saying that, he drew his sword and came to kill Liu Youhu.

Other civilian and military generals watched helplessly, not knowing what to do.

Half of Liu Youhu's entourage went to defend the city with Kan's army, and the other half followed him. Seeing this, they all came to stop Kan Kui,
Kan Kui drew his sword and chopped down several of them, but no one came back.

Liu Youhu had never been afraid of others, but was afraid of his wife and his wife's uncle. He did not dare to fight back and ran around the pillar in fear.

He was caught up by Kan Kui and cut his left arm with a sword.In the end, Liu Youhu's wife came out and hugged her uncle.

Only then was Liu Youhu able to escape from the palace. Surrounded by several followers, he ran out of the city gate and headed north towards Khitan.

He knows that he is not popular in Fenzhou now, and his soldiers will be gone.Whether it is Cao Xi or others, it may be unfavorable to him.

Therefore, it is still safe to surrender directly to the Northern Han Dynasty.

By the time Zhao Dezhao, Zhao Yuanzuo and others arrived at the Prefect's Mansion, only a few irrelevant people were left.

Zhao Yuanzuo immediately ordered people to seal the place, and asked for a name book, and called them one by one, and arrested all the top and bottom, and arrested a few civil servants and generals who were reported to be collaborators.

At this time, Zhao Guangyi was worried that his son was in danger, so he tried his best to get Zhao Kuangyin to remove Zhao Yuanzuo and go home immediately.Inform Zhao Dezhao that he is going to return to Beijing tomorrow.

Zhao Dezhao is accepting the surrender of Fenzhou Army.

In a siege battle, more than 1000 rebel soldiers were killed, hundreds were arrested, and the other 2000 or so surrendered.

Zhao Yuanzuo asked Zhao Dezhao to take charge of Fenzhou.

Zhao Dezhao nodded in agreement, and the two copied Fenzhou Mansion.

Fenzhou has a lot of wealth.Counting 20 taels of gold, [-] taels of silver, and countless other jewelry.Zhao Yuanzuo asked people to seal up the treasury, waiting for the imperial edict to come out.

However, he and Zhao Dezhao privately divided the jewels, jade, etc. among them.

"Brother Wang, if you hadn't risked your life to save him just now, I wouldn't be here to arrest Liu Youhu now. I'll leave these things to you."

Zhao Dezhao said with a smile, "Brother, you are joking, are you going back to Beijing this time? There are still many important things to do. In the future, we will be in the same spirit and just be a group. Why should you be polite at this time?"

He just divided the things into two parts, and one person took one part.

Zhao Yuanzuo had no choice but to accept it, and the two sat opposite each other and drank wine all night, chatting happily over the wine and enjoying themselves.

Zhao Yuanzuo promised Zhao Dezhao that he would be his support in Beijing from now on.There is something to remind each other.

The next day, Zhao Yuanzuo set off back to Beijing with a hundred imperial guards and ten imperial guards.

Zhao Dezhao ordered people to put Liu Youhu's family members into a wooden prison cart, and Xiaoxing spent the night on the way back to the capital.

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin was worried about state affairs and felt a little uncomfortable, but he summoned Zhao Yuanzuo immediately.

Zhao Yuanzuo told all the experiences of this trip. Except for his friendship with Zhao Dezhao and the division of stolen goods, he basically told the truth.

Zhao Kuangyin was very happy when he heard that Liu Youhu's arm was cut.

I was also surprised when I heard that Kan Jun had violently injured others before he died. It was actually Zhao Dezhao who risked his life to save Zhao Yuanzuo.

Zhao Kuangyin ordered people to accept the registration books of Liu Youhu's family in Fenzhou and the treasury government in Fenzhou, and asked Zhao Yuanzuo to go back to rest and make his own proposal tomorrow morning.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling better today?" In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the eunuch Wang Jien lay down on the head of the bed, his face full of sorrow.

This is not pretending, the eunuchs, large and small, can be said to live for the emperor alone.

If the emperor is gone, eunuchs will be meaningless.

Especially the eunuch Wang Jien, who is the top-ranked Bingbi Division Ritual Supervisor.

If the emperor were replaced, the young eunuchs might not be affected, and none of the eunuchs would be left.
Who doesn’t use his own confidants?

"I feel better today. You go and help me to draw up a decree, saying that King Qi has worked hard and made great achievements, and temporarily governs the land of Fenzhou. Remember, send this decree to King Jin for a look."

"Oh...accept the decree."

There is no owner in Fenzhou, and currently the most suitable one is Zhao Dezhao.It will take a long time for Jingzhong to send people there, and there may not be people from Fenzhou to support them when they arrive.

If Zhao Dezhao comes to take charge of Fenzhou, the Jin Dynasty next to him will definitely be displeased. It would also be good to let them fight to consume their strength.

It's a pity that Zhao Kuangyin didn't have an intelligence network, and he didn't know that Zhao Dezhao had established a good communication channel with Zhao Yuanzuo.

This time Zhao Dezhao had great merit but did not get any other rewards. That was because Fenzhou County alone was far better than any reward.

The decree spread to Fenzhou and Qinzhou.All the people were jubilant, let alone the soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty, even the people of Fenzhou were extremely happy.

Cao Xi doesn't care about business, Liu Youhu has been unpopular for many years, and the last time the Northern Han army invaded, it was Zhao Dezhao who went to the frontier to rescue, which has already shaken the hearts of countless people.

Zhao Dezhao's integration of the Fenzhou army is not considered Caoxi's power.

Now there are [-] soldiers and [-] horses.

The people of Fenzhou are no longer counted among the forces of Northern Han Xie.There are more than 28 households and more than [-] people in total.

Zhao Dezhao discussed with everyone for many days.

The people in the original Fenzhou were divided into fields for food, so that the people had something to do and rely on.

In addition to farmers, other carpenters, craftsmen and other craftsmen all moved into the city to provide food and housing, make military weapons, sew military uniforms and so on.

The master and apprentice Wang Youzhang, who was captured in Taiyuan last time, have all been released.

The veteran general Kan Kui who cut Liu Youhu's arm was restored to his original post and became the garrison of Fenzhou City.And reward a thousand taels of silver.

Zhao Kuangyin did not take back the money in the treasury, which added up to several million 10 taels.

With money, not only can we recruit troops, but the most expensive intelligence and commercial departments can also operate normally.

But now Zhao Dezhao still has a head-scratching problem. A large amount of food in Fenzhou was looted by the Northern Han army. Even with the food subsidies from the Song Dynasty, it seems that he will not be able to survive this winter.

In fact, Zhao Dezhao's Han land is not the only one troubled by the food problem.Two hundred miles to the south, in a vast area, the Northern Han people are also worrying about food.

Liu Youhu took back Taiyuan, the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty,
"Young master! Marshal, my tribe only has food for three days. If there is no food, we can only eat grass."

Another little leader came to complain to Liu Youhu, the leader of the Northern Han Dynasty.

Emperor Liu Jiyuan of the Northern Han Dynasty was still a young man at this time.Known as the young master.

Liu Youhu frowned and was at his wits' end.
