The snow was vast, and the entire Bianjing City was covered with heavy snow almost overnight.

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest.

After two consecutive years of abnormal climate, either drought or flooding, God finally stopped playing the Song Dynasty in the winter of the first year of Yuanyou.

As the heavy snow fell, strange transport vehicles appeared on the official road outside Bianjing City.

These vehicles are pulled by horses, but they can travel like flat ground on snowy ground.

You can even drive on the frozen Bian River.

Although the number is relatively small, only about a hundred vehicles, with these vehicles, the commercial supply of Bianjing City, especially the supply of vegetables and meat, can still be maintained.

Subsequently, merchants in Bianjing City rushed to imitate this "sled car" invented and manufactured by the specialized military weapon bureau.

Within a few days, hundreds of horse-drawn sled trucks pulling goods on the ice appeared on the Bian River.

From then on, there was a scene in the Bian River, and I watched sleds driving on the glacier.

Even now, it has attracted many onlookers and amazed by Bianjing people.

But Zhao Xu was a little unhappy.

The reason is...

Riots occurred in Xinzhou (now Xinxing County) on Guangnan East Road!

A powerful man named Cen Tan led thousands of people to raise the flag of anti-bank in New South Wales.

According to the report of Jiang Zhiqi, the transfer envoy from Guangnan East Road, and Huang Jie, the governor of Xinzhou, - it was discovered that he gathered people with magic skills, and had more than 2,000 people, and planned to seize Xinzhou first, manage Fanyu, and seize Lingnan. The momentum was very high! The officials fled to the seal, and the generals sent by the commander's office were afraid and dared not go forward, so they led troops to plunder and kill the villagers nearby to follow the captives!

It's not a big deal, but it's extremely insulting!

At least, Zhao Xu was a little embarrassed.

Although he had already read countless information about the lower limit of the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty, and he knew it clearly in his heart.

However, when the facts were put in front of him, it still made him a little unacceptable.

It was just a powerful man in a place who pretended to be a god and threatened the people to rebel.

Under normal circumstances, it may be possible to suppress things by simply sending a yamen runner to bring dozens of militias.

But in New South Wales, it has developed into a gathering of thousands of people to siege the state city.

The officials also let the seals be abandoned and fled, and the army was afraid of cowards, but these bastards were not brave enough to suppress the thieves, but they were very brave enough to kill good deeds!

From a glimpse of the leopard, what do the officials and troops in other Guangnan prefectures and counties look like? You can imagine it!

"Fortunately, Huang Jie, the governor of New South Wales, does not believe in the strange powers and chaos..." Zhao Xu carefully read the file reported by Guangnan East Road, and sighed: "Otherwise, there will be a state city in the Song Dynasty and will be captured by a charlatan."

Speaking of which, the method of siege named Cen Tan's siege is also extremely funny!

He led his men and siege the city, usually threatening the city - if I don't surrender, I will do something to make the city wall collapse!

This trick like a child's play has been successful for many times.

Even Guangnan East Road reported that officials fled to Peiyin...

In other words, when Cen Tan called on the officials, he ran away and left the city to Cen Tan.

It seems like Cen Tan really has a spell.

At the same time, the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty were even more funny.

These bastards were ordered to fight, and faced with the mobs of Cen Tan, they were cowardly and unwilling to move forward.

But when faced with ordinary people and merchants, these bastards showed their evil intentions, killed innocent people indiscriminately, and invited rewards with good people.

It really fits the saying that there is a place where the dragon lies, there must be a phoenix chick!

Fortunately, Huang Jie, the governor of New South Wales, was a serious Jinshi, not the cowardly local people.

When facing Cen Tan's besieged city, he did not believe Cen Tan's intimidation at all.

This made Cen Dashun encounter Waterloo, a unique trick that has always been unsatisfactory.

Then……

The most funny thing happened. Since the uprising, officials were asked to "escape with seals" and officers and soldiers were "cowardly and unafraid" to kill the good and profitable Cen Tan's uprising army. Under the city of Xinzhou, because the governor of New South Wales, Huang Jie, not only did not escape, but wanted to open his eyes, so he collapsed instantly and scattered in a hurry.

It can be called the black humor of the year.

The absurdity of Guangnan East Road is really hard to see!

But this absurd thing will not stop there.

Instead, it will last for thousands of years, and its influence will still stir up the local area in modern times. In modern times, Zhao Xu has a colleague from Xinxing County. He told Zhao Xu that their folk customs over the place will be worshipped by the King Cen Yi Temple during festivals.

According to his words, the Dawang Temple was a local folk belief and passed down from the Northern Song Dynasty.

Moreover, according to the research of this colleague, the King Cen Yi who was worshipped was Cen Tan, the leader of the peasant uprising in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Local county annals and local annals seem to be recorded.

In other words, this embarrassment will be lost for a thousand years!

Too shameful!

"Sixth brother, don't be angry anymore..." Empress Dowager Xiang looked at the angry Zhao Xu and had no choice but to comfort him: "Guangnan East Road has been arranged to enter the suppression."

"The Privy Council has surrendered its command and ordered Yang Congxian, the commander of Guangnan East Road, to be the commander, and to lead all the sixth generals of Guangnan East Road, to attack. They will definitely be able to capture the leader of the bandits and return the peace of Xinzhou!"

Zhao Xu nodded: "Mother, my son is not worried that he can't suppress the thieves..."

Just a genius.

Under the attack of the regular army, they cooperated with the traditional rule of "only punishing the evil people and not following the followers" of the Song Dynasty (because of the rebellion of King Ze of Beizhou, the Northern Song Dynasty refused to accept the riots and leaders surrendered by religious agitation), and it would not take long to wipe out.

"But, the corruption of the government on Guangnan East Road is hard to let go!"

Zhao Xu knew this, and would be a thousand years old in the local area.

A thousand years later, today's farce has become a local folk myth.

People even worship, and now the seemingly funny Cen Tan is regarded as a god.

"Mother!" Zhao Xu looked at Empress Dowager Xiang: "My son wants Zong Liang's uncle to go south to Guangzhou..."

"Going south towards Zongliang?"

"Yes!" Zhao Xu said: "Don't Zong Liang's uncle now have the qualifications to be the commander of the army?"

"It just so happened that my uncle was appointed as the commander of the Guangnan East Road military commander and the promotion of the Guangzhou Maritime War Office, and went south to sort out the military and political affairs of the Guangnan East Road..."

"This is not great..." Empress Dowager Xiang hesitated: "Xiang Zongliang has never had any experience in the army..."

"It's okay!" Zhao Xu said: "Just send the general to Zong Liang's uncle's assistant for one night."

"That's how..." Empress Dowager Xiang was obviously moved.

After all, Xiang Zonghui is her younger brother, but so is Xiang Zongliang.

Now, Xiang Zong is in a prosperous state of relocation, and he is seeing a full-time official who can get it steadily.

In the future, the title of Jiedu and Prince will definitely not be able to be eliminated.

But Xiang Zongliang still slept in Bianjing City and waited for death.

When Xiang Zongliang's wife entered the palace, she had many pleas for love in front of her.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiang's expression had loosened, Zhao Xu said directly: "Then let's settle it!"

"After the New Year, Zong Liang's uncle was appointed as the commander of the Guangnan East Road Army and promoted the Guangzhou Maritime Bureau."

Appointing Xiang Zongliang as the commander of the Guangnan East Road military commander was just an excuse. What Xiang Zongliang really wanted was Guangzhou Maritime Bureau!

no way!

There are many things that scholars and officials dare not do or are unwilling to do.

But the relatives of the outside world are different!

The relatives of the Song Dynasty were willing to do anything as long as they had money and were willing to do anything.

However, if relatives take the lead, local people will be brave enough to become stronger and will not be afraid of policy risks.

Just like Xihe, if he hadn't returned to Zong and Gao Gongji was in charge, who would dare to play like that? Who would have the courage?

After hesitating for a while, Empress Dowager Xiang chose to nod: "Since it is the Sixth Brother, let Xiang Zongliang give it a try..."

"However, it's better to arrange some virtuous people around Xiang Zongliang..."

"So as to avoid making mistakes!"

Zhao Xu listened and said with a smile: "My mother is at ease!"

"Jiang Zhiqi, the current Guangnan East Road Transport Author, is a famous scholar in Changzhou and a moral figure in the world!"

Well, Jiang Zhiqi is indeed a "moral benchmark".

The famous fence-bearing grass, the kind that blows the wind on both sides.

As Ouyang Xiu's disciple, he was the one who stood up to impeach Ouyang Xiu's "Current Curtain".
