Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 525 The World Shakes
Looking at the time of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Central Plains can say that it has been the most prosperous place in the world "since ancient times".

Since the Five Dynasties period, when Zhu Wen established the capital in Bianliang and established Daliang, Tokyo has had an extraordinary status in the lush land of the Central Plains.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, Tokyo was not suffering from war for more than a hundred years. Zhao Song gathered all the taxes and taxes of the world to provide a city. There were 50 million people in this place alone. It was the most prosperous in the world. I really don’t know how to compare it How much to win.

Of course, all this is not possible now.In the old days, Wang Xietang was nothing more than a swallow in front of Wang Xietang. After the previous military disaster, the endless romance of Tokyo City had been completely burned by that fire.The population is scattered, but there are still more than [-] people left.

After Liu Kai, Li Yi became the second left behind in Tokyo, but he is not a person who can make decisions.In today's left-behind department in Tokyo, Liu Yu is the first to make up his mind, and Guan Sheng is the most supportive.

The skid state was tight in the previous period, and Guan Shengcai led the troops to the north to enter the anti-skid state.

But this does not mean that the city of Tokyo will not be shaken, and the threat can be completely blocked out.Because Liangshan Army's biggest threat to Gyeonggi Road is not Hebei at all, but Qilu.

Anyway, they have no power to fight back. The preservation of Gyeonggi Road just depends on when the King of Human Land comes to pick it up!

However, Liangshan's army swept across Hebei Province in just ten months. Li Yi and Liu Yu were shocked to hear the news.Not to mention the subsequent Battle of Baozhou and the Northern Expedition of the Liangshan Army. When the news of the Liao Army's invasion and the murder of Baosai came together, even Guan Dadao had to give a thumbs up and say hello.

This is really uplifting!The only pity is that it has won the hearts of the people to Liang Shanjun's side.

There are only about one hundred thousand people left in Tokyo City, and it looks like a big city.However, the city is an empty nest.The ruins of the imperial palace in the center of the city are still there, no one moves or takes care of them.

That is the imperial city after all!

Even though the city of Tokyo was seriously damaged in the last war, there are still mansions everywhere. Even if the insides are empty shells, it is normal to 'arm' them again.Among the officials in charge of the left-behind department in Tokyo, all of them live in a very unsatisfactory manner.

Liu Yu came from an ordinary family, otherwise he would not have caused such a scandal in his early years by stealing platinum bowls and gauze clothes from his classmates. Yin, Tongzhi left behind things, signed left behind things, left behind judges, etc., but most of those positions are held remotely, their names are on the register, and they are in Luoyang City.

It was also because Liu Yu's official position was too low earlier, otherwise he would not have only been awarded the position of a left-behind promotion officer.But now he is the most powerful person in Tokyo.Li Yi, who stayed behind, was incompetent. Not only did he not stop Liu Yu from seizing power, but he condoned it, which made Liu Yu even more proud.Wang Shiyong, Song Qiyu, his brother Liu Yi, his son Liu Lin, and his nephew Liu Ni all held important positions.

The latter three were inserted into the army by him, and the three Liu Yi were also quite brave and heroic, and they had established a solid foundation in the army for such a long time.

Acres of open space inside and outside Tokyo have also been opened up.At this moment, no one in Luoyang cares about the situation in Tokyo City, so none of the officials in the Defense Department know how many acres of land have been divided up.Although the land title here is too flimsy and there is no insurance, this is land.Tokyo is located on the bank of the Yellow River. The land is flat and fertile, making it a fertile land.Affected by the previous impact, a large number of mansions outside the city and inside the city were destroyed. The military disaster caused the city to become completely unrecognizable inside and outside, especially between the outer city and the inner city.A large number of houses were demolished and burned.Nowadays, this large area of ​​destroyed land has been cleared up, but no more houses are built, nor is it left idle, but has been turned into farmland.

It is sad to say that in the huge city of Tokyo, every inch of land was expensive in the past, but now large tracts of open space have been turned into farmland.Ten years ahead, no one would believe it.

And that's what happens.

Tokyo City is still tall and strong, but the flames of war and unresolved fate have made it depressed.Although relying on its location in the Central Plains and the influence left by history, this Tokyo city will inevitably have a day of resurgence in the future.But in a short time, timid people really don't like this place.

People in the inner city of Tokyo live more in the inner city, and those in the outer city only rely on avenues and waterways as neighbors.The streets in the city are still spacious and tidy, extending in all directions, but the inner city is far from being as luxurious as before.

Because of Song Ting's relocation, [-]% of the officials and dignitaries in Tokyo City followed, and now only the officials left behind.Although there are signs of officials getting together in various squares, the city of Tokyo is too big, and they live too scattered.Especially those important civil and military figures in the left-behind department.

Just like Liu Yu, he still lives in Xianning Fang next to Tianliang Gate.But it was not the original mansion, because of the military disaster, Liu Yu moved the place, and of course he was not allowed to live in a clan mansion that was empty.

This Duke is from the lineage of Prince Pu's Mansion, and the appearance of the mansion is simple.Inside is the elegance of carved beams and painted pillars, inadvertently elegant and exquisite, anyone with eyes will not fail to see it.

In the words of later generations, this is low-key luxury with connotations.

The stone lions on both sides of the stone steps are very mighty, but no matter how mighty they are, they are fake.When the Liangshan army ransacked the mansion, they couldn't help at all. Instead, they had several sword scars on their bodies.

As one of the most important figures in Tokyo, there are soldiers constantly patrolling outside the mansion on weekdays, and there are also soldiers standing on both sides of the gate.They are all loyal and reliable sergeants selected by Liu Yisan from the Tokyo garrison.

Today, a line of carriages lined up in front of the Liu Mansion, and the crowded street in front of the mansion was much livelier than usual.Liu Ni came with a team of soldiers from the military camp to protect him. This was also the end of Guan Sheng, otherwise he would not be allowed to be so comfortable.

There was laughter in the mansion, and the warm atmosphere of the banquet could be felt even by the soldiers standing outside.It's no wonder that people are happy, Liu Yu has been promoted, and he has stepped up to know the left-behind affairs, isn't it a blessing?

A middle-aged man who looked like a steward stood outside the hall, carefully and seriously instructing the servants coming in and out, and then frowned and asked, "Why haven't they arrived yet?" How could there not be a singing girl at this banquet?The atmosphere in the officialdom of Zhao and Song Dynasties has always been like this.

To put it nicely, it is a romantic scholar, but to put it badly, it is drinking and prostitutes.

"The king is in charge, they are here!" Fortunately, at this moment, a group of young girls with gorgeous facial features in tulle and light clothes came from the corner door.

After a while, I could hear the sound of the piano playing in the hall, the wonderful songs of silk and bamboo, and the clear gauze fluttering and dancing gracefully. It was indeed a kind of enjoyment.

Today, one and a half million residents of Tokyo city have fallen into this situation. Not even one out of ten can survive. How many girls’ families have been affected by disaster? These women can fall into the Liu family, even if they are low-status singers and dancers, they can’t survive. It's life-threatening, right?

The banquet was very complete, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves while drinking, talking and laughing.

It's just that Liu Yu's smiling face immediately cooled down after seeing off a large number of guests. Liu Yi was by his side, and he didn't feel very happy about this promotion.Have birds happily?I'm so glad I should have been transferred back to Luoyang.

There is only one word to describe this ghostly place in Tokyo City——dangerous.

Wang Duguan has already bowed his head and retreated, don't say that the master is anxious, so why isn't he afraid?Now that he is rich and honored, the majestic Liu Manor's Wang Da is in charge of him, so how can he not be rich and honored?That is a power that was unimaginable earlier.But as long as you think that the Liangshan Army can kill at any time, and think that the Liangshan Army can break through the city at any time, this wealth is as unreliable as the moon in the water in the mirror.I don't know how many times he was awakened in the middle of the night, and every time he was frightened, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Wang Duguan felt heavy in his heart, but his ears were still keen to hear the sound of hurried footsteps. When he raised his head and glanced at the corner door, his face suddenly sank.

Then I saw a travel-worn man, who was being led by the door, walking quickly.

"Little Liu He has met Wang Duguan." Menzi hurriedly came to greet him.But the travel-worn man opened his mouth and shouted, "Where is Mr. Xianggong? I have important military reports."

The latter asked people to wait here, turned around and went back.After a while, a servant came to call for someone.

Liu Yu had a cold face, his whole body was like a stone sculpture, looking at the person coming.I didn't go to the study either, it's empty here, and even though the attendants have already retreated, they keep it secret.

The man turned over and prostrated, and informed Liu Yu that the Khitan had bowed its head to sue for peace and that Lu Qian had led his army back south.When the latter heard the news, his heart skipped a beat, and cracks appeared on the hard face.

"Let's step back and rest." Liu Yu said after a while.Liu Yi beside him was so anxious that he couldn't stand anymore.

It is a big deal for Liangshan's army to return to the south.Who can guarantee that the victorious division returning from the south will not take advantage of the situation and seize the Central Plains?At that time, all the power and wealth of their Liu family will be wiped out.

The man backed away quickly.

Although the gap on Liu Yu's face was 'healed' again, he was in a bad mood. "The dynasties and dynasties have changed and changed, and the general trend of the world has also changed. The long-term division must be united, and the long-term division must be divided. The current Great Song Dynasty is no different from this."

Liu Yu is greedy and contemptuous, and fears death. It can be said that the style of a scholar is completely incompatible with him.But he is also a man of knowledge.In history, Liu Yu was appointed as the prefect of Jinan because of Zhang Kui's recommendation.It was the second year after the Jingkang Incident.At that time, there were a lot of thieves in Shandong and Jurchen was approaching. Liu Yu refused to go and asked to be transferred to a county in the southeast.

This kind of behavior is naturally greedy for life and fear of death, without responsibility, and without ambition.

But it must also be said that this person has a lot of foresight, because in the winter of that year, the Jin soldiers began to attack Shandong.

Now that the Liangshan army has turned around, he naturally feels a huge threat. Lu Qian's battle to sweep up the empty Hebei is not a skill. He can defeat the Khitan soldiers, and go north to Yanyun, forcing the Khitan emperor to bow his head. skill!With such a large army sweeping through Gyeonggi, how can such an empty shelf like Tokyo's left-behind division be able to resist it?
"Prepare the horse, let me go and stay in the office of the Sifu." After much deliberation, he couldn't make up his mind, so he simply went to Li Yi.

Such actions naturally attracted the attention of countless people in the city. This Mr. Liu was just proud, and he held a big banquet in the mansion and invited many guests. Why did he suddenly go straight to the left-bearer department?
