    Zhao Han's marching route is only the remaining range of Wugong Mountain.

    After turning over the ridge at the beginning, the rest are relatively flat hills or valleys.  Only when we go out of the mountain, we have to climb over a ridge. At this time, the snow is not so thick.

    "General, in front is the Wannian Bridge, which was built by Yan Ge in those days. After crossing the Wannian Bridge is the county seat Can you, can you let Wansheng go home"

    The person who spoke was a poor scholar who was forcibly invited by Zhao Han to lead the way before he left the mountain.

    Jiangxi is really amazing, there are scholars in the mountains.  Xiao Shizhong, the number one scholar in the ninth year of Yongle, came from Dashan. At this time, it belonged to Fei Yinggong's territory, and it was a very remote place in his territory.

    Zhao Han stood at the foot of the mountain and looked out. He could vaguely see the bridge and the county seat. He couldn't help asking: "You mean Yan Ge, but Yan Song?"

    The poor scholar said: "Although Mr. Yan Ge is a traitor, he has a very good reputation in his hometown, and he has done many great things to benefit the village."

    Taking advantage of the rest of the soldiers, Zhao Han asked again: "Tian Younian, the prefect of Yuanzhou, how is this man doing?"

    Poor scholars complained: "Tian Zhifu can do things, and it will inevitably disturb the people. He recruits soldiers to suppress the rebels, and the people in the whole government have to share. My family shared three buckets of rice last year. He also likes to make bows and arrows.  It is said that it is sent to the capital as a gift to the emperor, and the materials for the bow and arrow have to be apportioned. A piece of beef tendon is apportioned in five miles. How can the people in the mountains be willing to kill cattle? Isn¡¯t it just a matter of collecting money? I heard that fishermen in Yuanjiang have to apportion additional  Fish maw was taken advantage of by officials, and many fishermen fled. I heard people say that the rebels in Pingxiang County were forced to rebel by the magistrate."

    This is very interesting.

    When Tian Younian heard that the Tartars were besieging the capital, he immediately recruited craftsmen to make bows and arrows, and then sent them to the capital all the way.

    Seemingly loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but forced the people to rebel.  He took the opportunity to train soldiers again and wiped out the rebels. He really trained him an elite army, but the life of ordinary people was even more difficult.

    Zhao Han asked the quartermaster to bring a piece of broken silver, handed it to the scholar himself, and said: "It's almost New Year's Eve, you take the silver and go back to celebrate the New Year, don't go to Yuanzhou Mansion to report to the officials."

    The poor scholar took the money in a daze. He thought he would be silenced by the rebels, but he didn't expect that there was still money to receive.

    Thanks a lot for this guy, and went home with money in his hands.

    After going up the mountain, he watched the rebels crossing the bridge from a distance, and suddenly became entangled, should he go to Fucheng to report the news?

    After weighing repeatedly for a long time, the poor scholar turned and went home.

    In this cold weather, why did you run so far to Fucheng?  The magistrate showed no kindness to him, instead he apportioned a lot every year. If the rebels captured the city, a different magistrate might be able to live better.

    In fact, Zhao Han is not afraid of his tipping off.

    It's almost the Chinese New Year, and the army in Tian Younian's hands must have been sent home.  Zhao Han wanted Tian Younian to gather his troops, otherwise how would he eliminate those elite officers and soldiers?

    ?Because of the terrain, Zhao Han was unable to surprise Fucheng, so he had to take down Fenyi County first, and his whereabouts could not be concealed.

    At this very moment, Zhao Han is crossing the Wannian Bridge built by Yan Song, Yan Shifan and his son.

    The bridge spans the Yuanjiang River, with a total length of nearly 400 meters and a width of nearly 8 meters, with a total of eleven bridge holes.  It was a big project that cost more than 20,000 taels of silver back then.

    Hundreds of years later, the bridge and the county seat were all submerged under the water because the Jiangkou Reservoir was to be built.

    Today's Fenyi County is on the edge of the Yuan River, and the east gate of the county is just across the Wannian Bridge.

    "March at full speed!"

    Thousands of soldiers ran towards the bridge, and some people fell down in the snow from time to time.

    Until I ran to the bridge, there was no response from inside or outside the city. Most people were at home preparing for the New Year¡ªit was already the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

    Even the city guards, because of the cold weather, hid in the city tower to warm themselves by the fire, and no one wanted to stand on the city wall to blow the wind.

    Instead, it was the people at the wharf outside the city. Someone noticed something was wrong, looked around for a moment, and asked in great confusion: "Is this an officer or a rebel?"

    "The officers and soldiers are here!"

    With all the weapons, it seems that they are not rebels, but the officers and soldiers are also scary, just like rebels.

    Regardless of whether they were traffickers or merchants from other places, there was a mess on the pier, shouting "the officers and soldiers are coming" and fled in panic.

    The city guards were confused, and the Chinese New Year was about to come. Where did the officers and soldiers come from?

    These guys came out to look around, and in a daze, some soldiers exclaimed: "It's the rebels, the rebels have come out of the mountain!"

    "Close the city gate, close the city gate quickly!"

    Zhao Han has already led his troops to run most of the 300-meter-long bridge.

    The soldiers shouted in unison: ???Immediately ran back and said to the scripture teacher and the handyman: "Run away!"

    The scribes and handymen resented in their hearts, and the rebels were all attracted by the teachings. Wouldn't it be good to honestly hide in the school?

    These guys ran to the back door quickly, only to hear a bang, but the main door of the school was knocked open.

    "Catch them all, I want to live!"

    Huang Shun was angry, but also a little excited. He knew that Zhao Han wanted to form a long-range army.

    Barged in from the main entrance of the county school, and everyone inside ran away, so I chased after him, and chased half a street from the back door.

    ?Because every household is closed, the teachers, scripture teachers and handymen can't hide in the houses, so they can only sneak into the alleys along the streets.

    The handyman ran fast, but the teachers lacked exercise, and were chased closer and closer by a group of rebels.

    "Alas!"

    One scribe fell to the ground, and the other scribes ignored them and ran for their lives with all their strength.

    Jiaoyu had already run to the front, but after hearing the situation, he suddenly turned around and shot another arrow.

    "ah!"

    The shot was very accurate this time, hitting the chest of a chasing soldier.  Fortunately, he was wearing a thick cotton coat, which offset most of the strength, otherwise he would have died on the spot.

    "Raise your shield and pursue!"

    Huang Shun hurriedly shouted.

    The rattan players under Zhao Han have long since stopped using pot lids, and now they are all serious wooden shields.

    In addition to the teachings, all other scribes were arrested.

    Huang Shun reluctantly pulled out the arrow. He was also wearing a cotton coat, and the arrow didn't go deep into the flesh, but it still hit the bone.  This guy led the troops to speed up the pursuit, followed the teaching instruction into the alley in a blink of an eye, and then lost it.

    "Boss, there are footprints on the ground!" A corporal reminded.

    As the Chinese New Year approached, there were few pedestrians in this alley.  Although there are many footprints in the snow, there are only a bunch of new ones.

    Huang Shun said with a sneer: "The rattan player is in front, raise the shield to protect his teammates."

    Jiaoyu was hiding in the pile of debris at the end of the alley. Seeing the rebels surrounding him, he knew he couldn't escape, so he just took another shot.

    "ah!"

    This time it was an arrow in the thigh, because the upper body was protected by a shield.

    "Rush forward, don't let him wind up, remember to catch the alive!" Huang Shun shouted.

    Zhao Han has already occupied the county office, the master has run away and is chasing him, the county magistrate is trembling and kneeling in front of him.

    Huang Shun trotted over, happily said: "Zongzhen, what do you think this is?"

    Zhao Han took the crossbow and glanced at Huang Shun's shoulder: "Go to the doctor to bandage it, don't delay the injury."

    Jiaoyu and several scripture teachers were brought before Zhao Han. The scripture teachers were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy.  Jiaoyu refused to kneel, and it was useless to be held down by the soldiers. In the end, he was pressed down to the ground.

    "Forget it, let him stand up." Zhao Han waved his hand.

    Jiaoyu stood tall and looked at Zhao Han with disdainful eyes, as if he didn't bother to say a word.

    "What's your name? Where did you get this crossbow?" Zhao Han asked.

    The instruction is still silent.

    The scripture teacher next to him said: "General Rongzhi, this person is Song Yingxing, whose name is Changgeng, and he is the teacher (principal) of Fenyi County School."

    "Song Yingxing?" Zhao Han smiled strangely.  </div&gt
