Chapter 1276 Wang Tiebian
In fact, when Cai Boyi approached, Zhao Zhen had already woken up. His sleep quality was not very good recently. As long as there was some movement, Zhao Zhen woke up. It can be said that his nap was like sleeping but not sleeping, and he was confused.
"What's going on with Sansi?"
Zhao Zhen suddenly spoke and scared Cai Boyi. Sancai also glared at him, as if complaining about the inappropriate situation of his appearance.
"I have reported to the officials, and I have already told Bao Xianggong that I will submit a memorial, and the donation of private merchants is tens of millions of dollars!"
Not to mention Zhao Zhen, even Sancai, who had no idea about money, was startled. He stared at Cai Boyi with wide eyes and raised his voice: "How many? Tens of millions of coins?! This...this is too much."
Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Don't be so petty. You are all in the palace knowing it. This money scares you? The number of merchants in our Song Dynasty and the wealth is far more than this. They are just spending money to eliminate disasters. To put it bluntly, this money is their life-buying money."
After pausing for a moment, Zhao Zhen looked at Cai Boyi and said with a little regret: "You made this Cai Ji big. Now that I have handed it over, don't be reluctant to leave it. Since I have returned to Sansi, my name will be changed."
Cai Boyi's body stiffened, and then Zhan Yan smiled and said, "What the officials said? Weichen no longer wants to care about these bad things anymore. After returning to the Sansi, he is still in the same business..."
Zhao Zhen nodded: "This is the reason. Cai Ji will change his name to the National Treasury Department in the future. You must be responsible for supervision and auditing. Don't take it lightly for the heavy business."
This was to hand over Cai Ji's supervision power to him. Cai Boqi was slightly shocked and then bowed and said, "I will never slacken when I die!"
He waved his hand and asked Cai Boqi to get up. Zhao Zhen turned his head and looked to the north: "This time, Peng Qi commanded the troops and used the chief generals from the Military Academy, which is unprecedented. If he wins battles and wins continuously... some people can't sit still."
Cai Boqi reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is still Wang Gui and King Bingzhi in this battle."
Zhao Zhen was stunned: "Wang Bingzhi... Oh, I remembered that he had the same name as my Hanlin scholar Wang Gui, but his name was different. I heard that this person was the 55th generation grandson of Prince Ling of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?"
Cai Boqi smiled and said, "No, there is a clan test. He is indeed the fifty-fifth generation grandson of Prince Jin, the prince of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. This person is a little bit of boxing, especially riding and shooting, and is good at yin and yang techniques. Because he often uses iron whips and iron pestles as weapons, he is called "Wang Tie Whip".
Zhao Zhen suddenly laughed and said, "I remembered that Wang Tiebian has also rewarded him. He is a man with great cavalry and shooting and a strategy in the military martial arts academy. He is a good leader. He was the one who defeated Liu Ping in the military exercises last year!"
Cai Boqi nodded repeatedly: "Yes! The official is so memorable, and the ministers admire him."
"What is this person's relationship with you? Are there any relatives?" Zhao Zhen looked at Cai Boyi with a smile. This kid rarely boasts about the general in front of him, not to mention that Wang Tiebian is indeed worthy of boasting.
Cai Boyi froze in place awkwardly, and then carefully said after Zhao Zhen glared at him: "This person is Du Guifei's in-laws..."
"Concubine Du? Miaoyuan's biological mother?"
Seeing Cai Boqi nodding, Zhao Zhen knew that it must be Zhao Miaoyuan was not easy to find a relationship, so he asked Cai Boqi to come and sighed: "This is why I insisted on pointing Liu Ping as the best rather than Wang Tiebian."
Seeing that Cai Boqi was a little puzzled, he pointed at him and said, "This person is indeed talented, but look! He just led his troops to fight and had not made any contributions, someone had already told him about it. How dare I value such a person?!"
Cai Boqi opened his mouth and muttered helplessly: "How can Your Majesty give up on food because of choking? I don't want to... what about the fierce wife in the family..."
Zhao Zhen kicked him: "What a mutter! The fierce wife in the family went to clean up and told Zhao Miaoyuan that you had never mentioned this to me, in order to protect him. If he mentioned it, I will definitely lose his merit! If he still entangled, I will follow the family law. I still don't believe that you can't beat Miaoyuan, a weak woman!"
"The official family has seen a weak woman who practices swords all day long? Which man, Sanqi Qingfeng, does not bow his back..."
"You..." Zhao Zhen was speechless by Cai Boqi. After all, he was his sister, so it was hard to say no matter how heavy he was.
Sancai was so happy that he couldn't look at him. He was arching his back like a shrimp and bent over. Facing Cai Boqi's resentful eyes, Zhao Zhen sighed: "Don't make family scandals public, do you have the nerve to say?"
He sighed helplessly and said, "If this Wang Tiebian is really rewarded, I will naturally promote and apply it. If I have not made any contribution, I will ask Concubine Du not to ask Miaoyuan to speak again."
Cai Boqi left happily, and now he was able to make an appointment with Zhao Miaoyuan. Although he would reward him for his merits and punish him for his mistakes, he would be punished for his mistakes. However, the golden words and words from the official family are naturally different.
At this time, Wang Tiebian was fighting immediately. One iron whip was powerless. While smashing the helmets of the Liao cavalry in front of him, he also clamped the spear that was coming from his arms, waved his hand and whipped the Liao soldiers' chest again. He painted his plate armor with red paint with blood. The ferocious Liao army was frightened.
The war in Haiyang City was almost over. Under the fierce artillery attack of the Song Dynasty, the defenders in the city had to go out of the city to fight. After so many years of war, the Liao people found that they could only burn the city to hide in the city. The best way was to take the initiative to fight the Song army.
The Song army naturally knew this and was already ready outside the city. Under the siege of the army, they also occupied the advantage of the army. How could the Liao people be the enemy?
The battle on the battlefield is often a life-and-death battle. The Song army is well-equipped and well-trained, and uses a combined attack formation to meet the enemy. It occupies the upper peak. The Liao army's attacking troops are quickly defeated and flees to Haiyang City in a hurry. Haiyang City is closed and does not open. Once the city gate is opened, the consequence will be that the city will be destroyed and people will be killed.
Wang Gui led his army to chase the city, facing the dense crossbow arrows shot down from the city wall, shouting: "Rise the shield!"
Whether the cavalry or infantry immediately raised their shields to block the shield. The shield with light wood and iron on the outside can block the arrows of the Liao people. Even if they penetrate, they cannot penetrate the exquisite plate armor or breastplate. Without Wang Gui's words, the infantry had already prepared to rush towards the city gate under the cover of the shield.
They were the only soldiers in the Song Dynasty armoured by their bodies, carrying a lot of gunpowder, and had only a shovel in their hands. Under the cover of their robes, they rushed to the city gate, threw down the gunpowder behind them, and began to dig holes in front of the heavy city gate.
The shovels fly around, and the daily training of these sergeants in the army is short-range sprinting and digging pits, which has been called their habit, and can maintain speed both during training and on the battlefield.
The greater the same risk, the greater the military achievements. More than half of the casualties rushed to the city gate were killed or injured, but it was safe to get into the city gate, and a few people could complete the work of digging holes, burying medicines, and detonating.
