Number of romantic figures

Chapter 2031 Guizi Juan leaves Beijing for Shaanxi, killing every step of the way

Feng Ziying naturally understood that her journey to Shaanxi would not be smooth, and countless people wanted her own life, especially the Bailian Sect.

After the assassination at Guhe Ferry, he knew that there was no way for him and the White Lotus Sect to be kind, either he died or they died.

In addition, Nan Bian'er's attitude towards him is also hard to say.

Lao Di attacked the city and cut down the land in Shandong, forcing Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu to retreat steadily, which became a serious problem for Nanjing.

He made suggestions for the imperial court, especially building Yuguan and Dagu into the core ports of sea trade between the north and the south, so that grains from Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, and even Jiangsu and Zhejiang were continuously transported to the north, and even replaced water transportation.

This not only made Nanjing really angry and hated, but also made countless people along the canal who depended on water transportation for a living grit their teeth and despair.

No one expected that the North-South War would create an opportunity for water transport routes to be replaced by sea transport.

Although it seems that the cost of sea transportation is higher than that of water transportation, as sea ships get bigger and bigger, the routes become more and more familiar, and the ports along the route become more and more dense, which makes the materials transported more and more abundant. The rapid rise of coal, iron and steel, military industry, and cement industries led by Suncheon and Yongping has changed the previous situation where cargoes were piled up from south to north, and almost empty from north to south.

Iron materials, ironware, cement, and charcoal became important southbound materials, and because these materials were large-scale consumables, almost every ship in the southbound ship was packed to the brim, and there was no longer the empty situation in the past.

This is simply the most welcome news for ship companies and ship merchants, and it also makes the number of ship merchants increase greatly, and the business of shipbuilding workshops becomes more and more prosperous.

There are those who benefit, and there are naturally those who lose. Many people along the canal feel a bit chilly. These people are also cursing Feng Ziying, the instigator, and even the largest Jianghu gang that used to rely on water transportation for a living—— Caobang.

There are more than 10 people from Cao Gang's children and family members. They are the most important force along the canal in Shandong and Nanzhi.

Now, on the one hand, they are actively helping the imperial court to recover Shandong as soon as possible, and calm Jiangnan, so that the old prosperity can be reappeared, but some people realize that they may never go back to the past, so they also mentioned in the letter to Feng Ziying, Many members of the Cao Gang resented Feng Ziying very much, and it is hard to say whether any extremes among them would do anything out of the ordinary.

Shaanxi may not necessarily welcome the governor to enter Shaanxi.

Whether it is in the officialdom or at the local level, there must have been a lot of messy things that have been going on in the past few years. As the governor, one is the right servant of the Ministry of War, and the other is the right censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It means that you can check anything in the officialdom in Shaanxi, which means that countless people don't want to see themselves in Shaanxi.

Feng Ziying knew very well that as soon as he left Beijing, he would attract the attention of countless people, so he once thought about whether he would come to Shaanxi with two or three routes, but after careful consideration, he gave up.

On the one hand, his whereabouts are too easy to expose, it is difficult to avoid the attention of interested people, and it is easy for others to infer the path he is going to take.

On the other hand, being so sneaky and sneaky made me feel guilty and short of breath before I went to Shaanxi, as if I was afraid of wolves and tigers, and I lost my arrogance.

And the momentum also represents the confidence, which is very important to the veterans in Shaanxi official circles.

Now that he knows that his journey will not be smooth, Feng Ziying must of course make a perfect plan. Even if the movement is a little louder, and he may even be criticized by the outside world, he doesn't care.

The princes of the imperial court are also aware of these situations. It is impossible for them to become the kind of poor people who die in Huangquan on the way to the post.

Dad also made arrangements. Dozens of family soldiers arrived early on. These are actually soldiers from Dad who moved to Datong and the Northwest, led by Feng You, who wanted to protect himself from entering Shaanxi.

In addition, it is the result of Wu Yaoqing's painstaking efforts in the past two years. Many of the Jianghu masters selected from the north and south have already trained in the third squad of the Shuntian government office. This time, many people are willing to fight for wealth when they go to Shaanxi. , this group of people is also the main force.

These two groups of people have to accompany me all the way to Datong, and then recruit some people in Datong, so that I will form my own army to enter Shaanxi in the future, and 500 people may not be enough.

After the women finally boarded the car, Feng You wandered around before coming to Feng Ziying's side, and said in a low voice, "Brother Keng, it's almost there, we can set off."

There are only a few people in this house who can still use the title Keng Geer to call Feng Ziying. Originally, Feng You wanted to change his mouth, but at Feng Ziying's insistence, he changed it to "Keng Geer" when there were only two of them. Brother, when there are many people in a formal occasion, call me an adult.

More than a dozen carriages rattled along and came out along Fengcheng Hutong.

Take Fuchengmen Xiajie Street to the north, until you reach Xizhimen, and then go northwest through Xizhimen to exit the city.

Wu Yaoqing has already dispatched more than ten riders, and headed straight for Qinghedian along the post road. He will stay at Qinghedian tonight, and he will go north all the way in the early morning of tomorrow. He will take the Xiaoyu River and cross the Red Bridge. , go north to Yanqingwei, go west to Baiyangkou into Huailaiwei, Feng Ziying wants to take this road to the west.

If you have family members traveling with you, don't think about driving too fast. In fact, it is impossible for Feng Ziying's business to speed up unless you drive lightly.

According to Feng Ziying's presupposition, it is not bad to walk fifty or sixty miles along the post road every day.

Fortunately, this westbound avenue has already been renovated, especially on the line from Huailaiwei to Jingshi City. Cement has first been used on the traffic arteries near Gyeonggi. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry have set up a pilot project on this line.

The Shanshanan merchants also tried to expand the cement market earlier, so they also lobbied with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry at cost prices, and finally made the post roads in the northwest line that are more military-used take the lead in renovating those sunny days. , the worst location for a bag of mud on rainy days, also made the section from Huailaiwei to Jingshi City.

The sky was still bright, and a group of people had already arrived at Qinghe shop.

This is the largest post station outside the capital city from the northwest, and it is also the most important distribution center for supplies. Most of the guests who can't make it to the city in time will rest here, so there are as many as hundreds of inns and hostels, with all kinds of grades and specifications. Theoretically, Feng Ziying should have chosen the Guanfu Station, but Wu Yaoqing did not choose it, but chose another guest house next to the Guanfu Station.

Feng Ziying trusted Wu Yaoqing's arrangement, and the group went straight into the guest house and settled down.

Feng You was a little puzzled, "Brother Yaoqing, why didn't you go to the post station, but came here? Don't be so particular about going out. Although the conditions of the post station are not as good as here, the safety of the government's place should be guaranteed."

"Brother Feng, you don't know what's going on outside." Wu Yaoqing shook his head, "Those who pose a threat to the adults are no longer ordinary security issues, and those who may really be harmful to the adults are all desperadoes, so the posthouse A little official name has no effect on them, and the post house seems to have status restrictions on the residents, but in fact it is in name only, and many outsiders have settled in, but Brother Feng does not know anything about this place. Opened by an informant,..."

Feng You suddenly realized, and nodded again and again: "If this is the case, then of course I have to live here. Brother Yaoqing will have to work hard all the way."

"It's all for the safety of adults. The one opened by Long Jinwei's informant may not be safe, but it is better than others. In addition, we have already scouted and stepped on the spot more than a month ago, and it is better to arrange it at night to guard against it." .”

Wu Yaoqing's words reassured Feng You a lot.

It turned out that people started to set up the preparations more than a month ago. This is a professional in this line of work, which is many times more professional than myself, who only knows how to fight and fight.

When Wu Yaoqing returned to the capital city from Shaanxi, he took a group of people to step on the road along the route, and he followed this route back then.

There are countless points along the way, including hotels, ferries, passes, narrow roads, mountain trails and other places that are easy to be attacked.

The group of them was divided into three groups, and each of them carried out spot checks according to their division of labor.

Wu Yaoqing was in charge of the hostel, and the other two groups were in charge of the mountain trails and ferry passes. Even so, it took more than a month to sort out a rough idea.

After Feng Ziying decided to take this road, Wu Yaoqing dispatched several waves of people in advance to start formally setting up spots along this road one month in advance.

Book a hostel and make safe arrangements, all of which must be prepared in advance to avoid any unexpected situation.

"I was worrying too much. With Brother Yaoqing's meticulous arrangement, I can rest assured." Feng You was completely relieved, "If there is anything that needs my help, just arrange it, my brothers may They are not as smart as brother Yaoqing, but they are loyal and dare to risk their lives."

Wu Yaoqing also knew that the people under Feng You were all good fighters in battle, but the vigilance and fighting in this kind of town block was a bit wasted.

"Brother Feng, you are welcome. If necessary, I will naturally ask for help. However, Brother Feng's subordinates are more effective in the wild. It is better to leave it to my group of men to take precautions at night. They are full of amazing skills. Coincidentally, it's just for this business." Wu Yaoqing laughed.

The sun was setting slowly, but the whole Qinghe shop was still bustling.

The entire Shuncheng Street is full of traffic and people coming and going. Dozens of hostels, teahouses, wine shops, and Nanhuo shops are spread along this street that is integrated with the post road, forming such a scene. Where the road is the city.

Behind a window facing the street on the second floor of Tang's Restaurant, a hundred steps away from the inn, two figures were hidden in the darkness, standing quietly, watching the inn.

"Didn't stay at the station? Hehe, as expected."
