Zhao Bing was embarrassed now. He wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune and recover some of the costs, but he didn't expect that Yangzhou had become a third-rate city in later generations. This was really a world of change and the cycle of reincarnation in the world! Looking at the group of people who were laughing at him, he also blushed. These guys must be laughing at him for losing money.

"Your Majesty, although Yangzhou does not have the prosperity of the past, it is not meaningless in tactical terms. Your Majesty's efforts to attack Yangzhou should be feasible!" Han Zhenyan said at this time.

"Oh, please tell me!" Zhao Bing looked at him with gratitude as he heard it. He thought to himself that he was still a 'his own' and knew to find a reason for himself at the critical moment.

"Please look at all your friends!" Han Zhen pointed to the sand pan, "If the enemy Goryeo naval army is blocked from the mouth of the river, they can still enter Guhangou from Yancheng, arrive in Yangzhou, and enter the canal!"

"Han Tongzhi, as far as the original minister knows, Hangou has gradually been abandoned after the canal is opened. It has been disrepaired for a long time and has severe siltation, so it has long been unable to navigate!" Wen Tianxiangyan frowned and said in confusion. He knew that Hangou was built during the Wenjing period of the Western Han Dynasty and was presided over by King Liu Bi of Wu. It is located on the north side of the Yangtze River to transport salt. Therefore, it is also known as Yanhe River, Yanhe River. It was originally the main channel of Yangzhou and the cities and counties along the coast.

"This is not the case with Wen Xiang. According to Xiaguan, although Hangou has silt, it can only pass through small ships on weekdays. However, every time the tide and sea water flows back, it can pass through warships of more than 2,000 stones, which means that enemy ships are not only accessible by the estuary of the river." Han Zhenyan said.

"Well, this reminds me!" Zhao Bing said, "This time, Dong Yicheng's troops used large and medium-sized warships. After the Huai River was seized by the Yellow River, the estuary was also severely silted. It has not yet reached the flood season, which may lead to failure of interception, so I..."

"The imperial examination will start on the day of the day, Your Majesty must not leave the capital!" Ying Jieyan interrupted impolitely before the young emperor finished speaking.

"How can Your Majesty come in person every battle? Moreover, the front line is long, and His Majesty needs to grasp the entire situation and coordinate and dispatch the various departments. Never leave them easily." Lu Xiufu was smart enough and understood that the little emperor was clearly looking for excuses to go to the battlefield, so he hurriedly dissuaded.

"You all know that the enemy's main attack direction is the east route. Only by annihilating the Mongolian and Yuan Goryeo Navy can the entire enemy's deployment be broken, and the other two routes will naturally collapse without fighting." Zhao Bing explained.

The Yellow River frequently changed its routes in history, and it also entered the Song Dynasty several times. In June of the eighth year of Qingli of Emperor Renzong, the Yellow River changed its route again, crossing Shanghu Damian in Chanzhou, heading north to Daming, passing through Liaocheng west to Qingxian, and then joining the Wei River, and then entering the sea. This river was called "Northern Flow" by the Song people. Twelve years later, the Yellow River broke in the west of the lower reaches of Shanghu Damian, and flowed through the current Chaocheng, Guantao, Leling, and Wudi into the sea. The Song people called this river "East Flow", but the water flowed eastward in less than 40 years.

After the Jingkang Incident, the Jin army entered the Central Plains. After the southward transition, in the second year of Jianyan, in order to resist the Jin army's southward, Tokyo's garrison Du Chong, a defender in Huazhou, broke the Yellow River embankment in a man-made Yellow River embankment in Huazhou, causing fatigue from the reform of the Yellow River. It divided into Sishui and Jishui to the south, and seized the main road of the Huaihe River into the sea. At this point, the Yellow River went from the north to the Bohai Sea and changed to the south to the Yellow Sea. The mud and sand carried by the Yellow River also poured down, silting into the sea estuary, and navigation was seriously affected.

"Your Majesty, I think there is no need to attack Yangzhou, and the only imperial guards that can be used to guard the Jiangdong line are the First Army and the Second Army. Jiangyin and Jiankang are the top priority of the defense line and should not be moved lightly. The two protectors of the Mongolian Army in Jiangbei are not compared with the Han army that originally guarded Jiangnan. They did not reintegrate during the reorganization of the previous period. They were all composed of the Red Horse Investigation Army when Mongolia advanced south, and they were strong in combat." Jiang Yu continued to speak with a breath of relief.

"At present, only the imperial guards in Jiangdong can be used to capture Yangzhou, and Your Majesty personally attack, the guards will inevitably follow. But once there is a change, there will be no troops to be taken away in the capital. Furthermore, if the Mongolian army desperately crosses from other places, only the guards can send reinforcements. Therefore, I think that as long as the navy can defeat the Goryeo Navy, the entire front will be worry-free, and the Mongols will no longer have the power to go south."

"Well, since that's the case, I should lead the navy to reinforce Dong Yicheng's troops in order to wipe out all the enemy navy troops in the outer seas, so that the world will be peaceful!" Zhao Bing was excited.

"Your Majesty is a king and personally takes charge of the Privy Council. If there is any change, who can mobilize troops? Should we also entrust the military talisman to the Queen!" Seeing that the little emperor was still unscathed, Ying Jie said sternly.

"This..." Zhao Bing immediately became silent after hearing this, and he whined a few times and said nothing!

Although the personal expedition was ruined, I still had to work. Speaking of which, this was also working for myself. So after reconsidering the ministers, Zhao Bing ordered most of the Yangtze River Navy to move to Jiangzhou and take a stance to deter the Yuan army that had lost the tools to cross the river. At the same time, it moved into the third phase of the battle, and ordered the army along the river to change from harassing the enemy's logistics to attacking the enemy messenger, cutting off the liaison between the enemy and delaying their actions. He also ordered Dong Yicheng's troops to strive to completely annihilate the enemy's naval army and make them lose their ability to continue combat.

"Your Majesty, are you going back to the palace?" After talking about the matter, Zhao Bing left Wende Hall. Tan Fei, who was guarding the hall, immediately came up to ask.

"Hmph, if you ask me this more, where can you go if you don't go back to the palace!" Zhao Bing said angrily.

"General Tan, go slowly!"

"What should I give to you?" Tan Fei was about to follow him, but suddenly he heard someone calling him. He looked back and said quickly.

"General Tan, Your Majesty is not very happy today. You must guard the palace gate and do not ask Your Majesty to leave the palace privately!" Ying Jieyan said.

"This... the lower official may disappoint the governor!" Tan Fei bowed to Yingjie Yanshen and said, "As the commander of the guard camp, the lower official must obey His Majesty's instructions and protect His Majesty's safety. Even if he wants to leave the palace, the lower official can only obey and dare not disobey!"

"Then it's not considered a violation of the rules if you inform the magistrate on duty!" Ying Jieyan was stunned when he heard Tan Fei clearly rejecting his request. He was also good at the commander's mansion. Of course, he knew his identity, but he actually encountered a soft nail in front of him, so he took a step back.

"You should know that your Majesty's whereabouts must not be disclosed to outsiders. Conserving confidentiality is also the duty of the subordinate officials. Without His Majesty's permission, I dare not disclose a word. Please understand the difficulties of the subordinate officials, and Your Majesty also knows the importance and will not act rashly!" Tan Fei said again.

"You... go!" His answer was completely unscathed, and he had nothing to say. Ying Jieyan waved his hand. But he was secretly praising him. There was such a loyal person around the little emperor, so what else could he not feel at ease?

"Your Majesty!" Tan Fei found that the little emperor had not gone far, so he immediately took two steps to follow.

"Yes, I'm very pleased!" Zhao Bing turned around and patted his shoulder and nodded and smiled.

"I am the mercy of your Majesty to live, and I will die!" Tan Fei immediately realized that the little emperor had heard the conversation between the two and quickly said.

"It's easy, there's no need to be so polite!" Zhao Bing raised his hand and asked him to avoid politeness, "Lingtang is good now, is it also in the middle of the capital?"

"Report to Your Majesty, my mother is fine now and she is still living in the old camp. She is just thinking about Your Majesty at all times and is very happy to learn that she is serving Your Majesty by her side. She urges her to serve Your Majesty carefully!" Tan Fei replied.

"Okay, I still remember Lingtang, who was the first to help the chef in the commander's mansion, cooked a good soup. It's said that I haven't eaten it again for many years." Zhao Bing smiled and said, "Now you are the commander and you are transferred back to the capital. You should take your mother to your side and serve well. There is so much inconvenience in the old camp. The affairs bureau I remember is still idle outside the palace. I asked them to clean up and take Lingtang over and enjoy it."

"Your Majesty's kindness, I have thanked you, how dare you receive the reward without any merits!" Tan Fei quickly refused.

"Don't be polite. You have been wandering around with me for many years. Now that you have settled down, you should marry and have children, so that your mother can enjoy the joy of family and be filial!" Zhao Bing waved her hand and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Tan Fei knew the little emperor's temper and no longer refused.

"This house is not for you for nothing. You have to do something for me first!" Zhao Bing called Tan Fei closer and said softly.

"Your Majesty, please give me instructions!" Tan Fei replied.

"Don't be nervous. I won't sneak out of the palace, nor do I ask you to kill people, or I ask you to go out to buy some books..." Zhao Bing in his ear...

…………

After Zhao Bing returned to Zhiyuantang to change clothes and wash, he went to the study room again, where there were already a ruler-high official documents. He sighed. It turned out that the matter was already busy enough, but after taking over the Privy Council, the official documents sent from various places every day doubled. Now the war broke out again, and he had to read the war reports sent from various places every day, which was really a bit sad.

"Your Majesty, the things that Commander Tan has given him are here!" It was not until the lights were lighting that Zhao Bing finished reviewing the important official documents and wanted to take a break and light the lights and fight again. At this time, Wang De came in with a package in his hand.

"Okay, take it over!" Zhao Bing put down his pen and waved.

"General Tan said that his Majesty was anxious to ask for it. I don't know what it was, so heavy!" Wang De walked over quickly and put the package down.

"It's all important things. Prepare dinner. I'll take a look after it!" Zhao Bing said, "Oh, pack up the two-in-one empty house in Houma Lane tomorrow, add some furniture, and let Tan Fei move it in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang De replied.

After dinner, Zhao Bing brought the package to the tea room, sorted the things inside, and began to read them carefully, and before he knew it, it was already in the second drum.

"Official family, where did you find miscellaneous books? It's such a big stall!" Su Lan came over to replace the burning candles. She looked at the soft couch with books, which included old books with rolls of hair and hand-written brochures. The thicknesses and sizes were different, and she was very surprised and authentic.

"It was all bought from the scholars who were taking the exam!" Zhao Bing put down the book, rubbed his sluggish eyes and said.

"Officials, what are you doing for buying these books?" Su Lan was even more surprised and didn't know what monster the little emperor was like.

"Hehe, I feel ashamed to speak of it. The exam is about to begin, but I still have little understanding of the imperial examination system, so I have to find some books to make up for it!" Zhao Bing said embarrassedly.

"The officials and the ministers in the court are all from Jinshi. Can you summon them to explain and know? Why bother like this!" Su Lan also said amused.

"I don't know what my sister said. These are all told by the teacher. I also had a degree in selecting scholars when I was in Qiongzhou. But I was confused at that time. I still had to ask someone to explain it now. Isn't it too embarrassing to do it? And the degree is about to be held, and I still have to preside over the palace examination. If I don't understand the rules, wouldn't it be a joke for scholars in the world!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and said with a sneer.

"Then Your Majesty can search for it in the classics, but why did he buy these old books from those scholars?" Su Lan asked in confusion.

"There are many classics, where to find them. These are the secrets for the scholars to take the exam, and all the requirements are available!" Zhao Bing said, "This book was written by a scholar in the Shaoxing period. It estimated the content of the exam and the number of people admitted to that year. It even analyzed the preferences of the examiners one by one, as well as detailed records of the rules for saving trouble and palace examinations. To this day, scholars still regard this as a treasure book for the exam."

"Also, this was written by a scholar during the Xianchun period. At that time, the war between the Mongolian and Song dynasties was in full swing. He came from the relatively calm Guangnan East Road, recording all the experiences and hardships of traveling north, as well as the places of food and accommodation, the prices of the enemy and the interesting stories when they were waiting for the exam in Lin'an, as well as the complicated mood of failing the exam."

"The official family, these are all rumors and imaginations. Can they be useful?" Su Lan said in confusion as she looked at the old books.

"Of course it will be beneficial if you read it. Otherwise, some of them have been passed by a hundred years and are still copied among scholars. This shows that they are still valued by them, and reading is always useful if you read it." Zhao Bing hurriedly said.

He knew that there were various "strategies and treasure books" for exams on the Internet in his previous life, recording the experiences of successful people and losers, as well as the means of opportunistic and cheating, which lasted for a long time. The imperial examination can be said to be the most important examination in ancient times, and these things are naturally indispensable. Zhao Bing, who was eager to sharpen his gun, hoped to fully understand the imperial examination system from it, which was more detailed and close to reality than the records in those classics.

However, Zhao Bing also found that these imperial examination guides recorded the moods and interesting stories of those scholars. Although there are records of the evolution of the imperial examination system of this dynasty, they are rare. After all, scholars who regard the imperial examination as changing their destiny must have memorized the system at that time and memorized it in their hearts. Otherwise, how could they deal with a series of exams? However, it also made him only see through the leopard and find what he needed from the fragments.

"The official family, I can recommend one person. He should be helpful to the official family and will not reveal the matter and hurt the official family's face!" Seeing that the little emperor wanted to find the needs from those old notes, he didn't know when he would have to endure, he thought about it and said.
Chapter completed!
