"Sure, I didn't say anything. Tell him that I will leave the fatest piece of land in the sandbank waiting for him."

Speaking of this, Zhou Qinchuan looked up at the outside of the camp and stood up, "It's getting late, Yourong, you should go back to the capital."

"Why do you want to go back to the capital? I won't go anywhere, I'll be here to accompany you."

"How can that be done? This is a military camp and you can't stay at a female guest."

"No need to worry about you, I will take Shi Jian and Dan'er to the Tongzhou Wharf to stay in the inn."

Su Yourong did not buy Zhou Qinchuan's tent. Shi Jian and Tang Dan came to Tongzhou with Su Yourong as visiting Men Da. Since they claimed to the public that Tang Dan was Men Da's daughter, they naturally had to do a good job.

Although Menda was an Jinyiwei, Emperor Jingtai was seriously ill and war was imminent. He could not find anyone to report his duties for the time being, so he stayed in Tongzhou to help Zhou Qinchuan.

"That won't be possible. In a few days, this area will inevitably be a place for war between the enemy and us. Tongzhou is not as peaceful as the capital. You should go back to the capital."

"I don't care, I'll be wherever you are." Su Yourong became a little arrogant.

"Uh... Shengming Trading Company is now a big business. As a big manager, you can't be a hand-off manager." Zhou Qinchuan attacked in a roundabout way, hoping to persuade Su Yourong with official business.

"You said just now that war is imminent, transportation is inconvenient, and the business is almost shut down. It's the same whether I can go back to the capital or not."

Su Yourong smiled sly, "Brother Qin Chuan, don't think about throwing us away and showing off one's heroes just like the time when I was in the same time as I was in the Batu. "

"Why are you a hero alone? I am now a general, and I have tens of thousands of soldiers under my command."

Due to floods, there will definitely be a famine this year. Therefore, the people who rushed to Tongzhou from eastern Shandong to reach an astonishing 120,000, of which 50,000 arrived on time, and at this time they all became under the command of the Wuwei Army of Zhou, Qinchuan.

The remaining 70,000 people were brought back to the capital by the officials of the Ministry of War who came with him. Given the large number of these people, it was difficult for these people from the Ministry of War to complete the inventory work, so they could only bring them back to the capital first and then make arrangements.

As for which battalion of these 70,000 people will eventually become, it is not about Zhou Qinchuan's business.

With the joining of this group of new forces, the embarrassing situation of scarce military sources in the capital was greatly improved.

"It's not better to have soldiers... it's not better to have soldiers. Why do you have to worry about my safety? Brother Qin Chuan." Su Yourong continued to display her eloquence.

Under her perplexity, Tang Dan and the other two were able to stay that night with Shi Jian and Shi Jian. Finally, they spent the night at an inn at Tongzhou Wharf.

Early the next morning, Zhou Qinchuan came to the inn and persuaded him. If the three of them stayed here, he and Menda and others would be worried. It would be difficult for them to use their full force in dealing with the rebels. Sooner or later, it would be an excuse for Su Yourong to let go and agree to return to the capital to avoid the military front.

"Brother Qin Chuan, don't show off. I heard from Lord Yu and Lord Fan that you just need to lead your army to guard Tongzhou and ensure that the grain treasury is not robbed by the rebels. If the enemy troops who come to attack Tongzhou are too strong, they will send people out of the city to help you fight."

Before leaving, Su Yourong gave her sincere advice.

This time, unlike the one that took the initiative to fight Yesen a few years ago, even though the group of soldiers from Shandong were good, they had not undergone much training in a hurry, and it was difficult to form combat power.

Therefore, the entire court, including Yu Qian, believed that it is best to defend the city and consume the strength of the rebels.

With the vast territory of the capital, Shi Heng's rebels could not have surrounded it all no matter what.

Tongzhou is the final stop for the northbound grain of Jiangnan. As long as it can be kept, there is no need to worry that the capital will be trapped to death due to shortage of food.

It also supports the capital. No matter which side the rebels attack, the other side can attack in time, causing the rebels to be attacked and defeated.

Therefore, the imperial court did not have high requirements for the newly created Wuwei Army, as long as it could defend Tongzhou.

The key to this battle, Yu Qian and others had no choice but to put their hopes on the troops from all over the country who entered the capital to serve the king, especially the Liaodong border troops.

"Okay, okay, you've said it many times, are you upset?" Zhou Qinchuan pretended to be angry, "Go away quickly, if you delay, you can't enter the capital."

Then Su Yourong bid farewell, and went to the direction of the capital with Tang Dan and Shi Jian, under the escort of Geng Biao and others.

After watching their figures disappear completely, Zhou Qinchuan asked:

"Brother, are you all ready?"

"I started to work after listening to your arrangement last night, but the incident happened suddenly and it was difficult to do my best in a while. I'm afraid it will take one to two days." Menda replied.

"No matter how much money or how to do it, the faster the better." Zhou Qinchuan continued to give instructions, looking at the northwest direction, with a hint of worry in his eyes, "According to our posters, they have encountered sporadic rebel outposts at the edge of the mountain in the northwest of the capital. The main force of the rebels will definitely arrive at the front line of the capital within five days. We have to hurry up."

"Brother Zhou, do you really take such a risk?" Menda was also a little worried, "Can we just stick to Tongzhou according to the arrangements of the court? You have only agreed to Mrs. Su."

Zhou Qinchuan sighed and asked, "Brother Men, don't you not know the situation in Tongzhou. Do you think Tongzhou can be defended?"

Menda was stunned for a while before spitting out a word, "Difficult!"

Although he is not in the capital for many years, there is no secret in the Tongzhou area. Not to mention Menda, who is the Jinyiwei, even others can easily come to the conclusion that Tongzhou is difficult to keep.

Tongzhou is located in the southeast of the capital. It has a flat terrain and a flat horse. There are no important passes for guarding. Perhaps the four counties and counties under its jurisdiction can barely rely on low city walls to fight against the rebels.

However, the so-called guardianship of Tongzhou by the imperial court did not protect these four counties, but to guard the Tongzhou wharf, which was a gathering place for grain, taxes and silver. The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War have temporary or permanent treasurys here, and there are many grains, silvers and other materials in it.

Such a huge number was not too late to complete the transport. If you ignore it, you would all be able to invest in the enemy and burn it with a fire, but you would be reluctant to leave it alone.

Therefore, the Tongzhou Wharf and the treasury around the Wharf are the places where Wuwei Army really needs to be guarded and worthy of guarding.

But Tongzhou Wharf does not even have a low city wall, so how can Zhou Qinchuan and others guard it?

If you want to avoid being captured by the rebels, you can only fight face-to-face with swords, swords, guns, and guns. You can't take any advantage, and the casualties will inevitably be serious.
