It’s just that he worked hard in Leizhou for a long time, and it was only then that he first saw prosperity, and he really couldn’t bear to leave it.

He could only hope that Zhang Jue could lead the Flying Army and the Flying Dragon Army to return to Leizhou as soon as possible to resist the Yuan army for a while.

He must first free his hands to wipe out the Dali army.

The speed of the army's advancement quietly accelerated a little.

The streets of Leizhou, Haikang and Suixi counties are extremely lively.

The constables of the Ministry of Social Security and minor officials from various departments posted notices everywhere, beating drums and drums, and parading through the city.

These constables and minor officials have been serious civil servants since the implementation of the Boone Order. Each of them has the badges of the word "Song..." embedded on their official robes and hats. Their mental outlook is far from comparable to before. They act recklessly, but they do not seem domineering.

Zhao Dongting raised their social status so that they could serve the court sincerely.

Many people gathered in front of the notices and watched. Literary literati read the contents of the notices to the people.

Recruiting militias.

This is the theme of the notice.

Such recruitment has been in Haikang and Suixi counties for more than ten days.

The ministers of the Song Dynasty knew very well that it would be too late to wait until the emperor returned to command his troops. The Dali Army's dispatch of troops made them feel that recruiting militias was imminent. If they could recruit a lot of militias, they might be able to resist the Yuan army for a little time and buy time for the emperor to return to the army.

The state official Lu Xiufu and deputy military commander Su Liuyi, who were of great power, personally supervised the recruitment of militias.

After the order was issued, the government offices of Haikang and Suixi were very busy.

The Haikang County Magistrate Xi Yi personally went to the streets to lobby the people. The scene was a bit similar to the fact that he had won votes during the elections in later generations.

In the past, the people were only voluntarily recruited the troops in the Song Dynasty. They were willing to join the army, and the only sons left in the family were not even allowed to join the army. But now, the constables and officials from various yamen knocked on the door from door to let the young and strong people in their families join the militia and fight against the Yuan Dynasty together.

Fortunately, the Southern Song Dynasty court has been very popular with the people over the past two years, so there are many people who respond to the court's call.

The military camps in the two counties recruited militia were crowded with people. All the young and strong people who came to join the army were full of indignation.

They finally lived a stable life in Leizhou, and the Yuan army came to invade again, which undoubtedly made them hate the Yuan army to their core.

At the time of the rise and fall of this country, there are still many young and strong people full of passion.

The soldiers registered and distributed military uniforms and weapons for them, and then hurriedly joined the training.

In this way, two days passed soon.

There are about 5,000 registered militias in Haikang and Suixi counties.

At this time, Zhang Jue finally led the Leizhou Army, the Feitian Army and the Feilong Army back to Haikang County.

After learning the news, Su Liuyi, the deputy military officer in charge of the court, personally went to Haikang County to greet Zhang Jue and others several miles away.

They rushed back to Hikang at this time, which undoubtedly brought a powerful needle to the ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Just after a moment of greeting, soldiers came to report, "Military order, the Yuan army has already passed through Xianglong County and approached Leizhou Bay."

Su Liuyi was shocked, "They arrived in Leizhou Bay so soon?"

It is more than ten miles east of Haikang County, and then to Benzhou Island. The entire sea area is called Leizhou Bay, which can be regarded as the inland sea of ​​Leizhou.

Zhang Jue stood beside Su Liuyi. When he heard the news, he immediately said: "Sir Su, Zhang will go to the coast to resist the Yuan army first."

Su Liuyi raised his hand, "That's how Lord Zhang is working. I'll call on the Leizhou army and rush to the coast to help."

Zhang Jue didn't care about it and immediately led his soldiers to hurried to the east coast of Haikang County.

Liu Hongyi was severely injured and handed over his tiger talisman at this time and sent it back home by the soldiers.

Since he became the commander of the Leizhou Army, as the highest military commander of the entire Leizhou, the imperial court gave him a mansion with a towering courtyard wall and a pair of stone lions in front of the door, which was very majestic and eye-catching. Next to the stone lion and in the middle of the mansion, there were several soldiers wearing armor, with their belts and swords, majestic.

On the plaque in the middle of the mansion, there are two words "Lei Mansion..." engraved, which is enough to show that Liu Hongyi has already ranked among the top nobles in Leizhou.

Furthermore, he and the Haikang County Magistrate Xi Yi were like father and son. No matter what the high-ranking officials in the court said, just talking about the local nobles in Leizhou, no one could compare with the Liu Mansion.

Liu Hongyi was guarded by dozens of personal guards, and the carriage quickly arrived at the entrance of the government office.

The guards at the government office knew these personal guards and immediately showed excitement.

Someone ran into the room and shouted, "The general is back! The general is back!"

The entire government office was in chaos.

Liu Hongyi's wife, He Huixiang, a fourth-rank man, hugged her son who was almost two years old, and immediately burst into tears, running wildly outside the mansion, and even almost fell.

Liu Hongyi walked out of the carriage outside the mansion, with his right arm empty and his expression a little complicated.

This time he was glad that he could keep this life. He was disabled and he was afraid he would really not be able to fight on the battlefield again in the future.

He felt a little regretful, but at the same time he was much more relaxed. In the future, he could accompany his wife and children at home, right?

The emperor's holy grace, his right arm, is enough to pay off.

The guards outside the government office were stunned when they saw his empty sleeves.

However, Liu Hongyi suddenly showed an extremely relaxed smile, nodded to the guards, and walked towards the government office.

Then, he met He Huixiang who was running out with her maid.

The nearly two-year-old child jumped out of his mother's arms and shouted in a silence: "Father! Father!"

Run towards Liu Hongyi.

Liu Hongyi's smile became stronger. He squatted down and picked up his child with his left hand, smiling and pricked the child's face with a slut.

When He Huixiang saw his lowered sleeves, her feet stopped and she burst into tears.

Liu Hongyi teased the child for a while, walked to He Huixiang, handed the child to the maid, held He Huixiang in his arms with his left hand, and whispered: "Madam, in the future, I will be able to accompany you and Hu'er at home forever."

He Huixiang cried even harder.

Liu Hongyi smelled the fragrance of her hair and said, "Why are you crying? It's just an arm."

He Huixiang kept silent, just bit his shoulder tightly.

"Ouch."

Liu Hongyi screamed in pain.

He Huixiang quickly let go of her mouth and saw that Liu Hongyi's face was a little pale, "Master!"

Liu Hongyi rubbed his shoulder that was bitten so painfully, and said, "It's okay, it's just that the wife bit too hard."

He Huixiang looked at his right arm sleeve, and she couldn't stop crying, "The master won't have to go to the battlefield again in the future, right?"
Chapter completed!
