Yu Qing.

With the help of Mao Shoujue, the Ming army took Yuqing almost without blood, and had already taken Weng'an and Huangping before, so far, the Ming army has occupied the entire southeast corner of Banzhou, and the peak of the army is directed to the Wujiang River.

The status of the Mao family in Yuqing is not much different from Yang Yinglong's status in Banzhou, they are all hereditary twenty-eight or nine generations, and Mao Ba, the ancestor of Mao Shoujue, is a native of Shandong, and he guarded here when the Tang Dynasty was born.

Before the movements of the Ming army, Yang Yinglong was well aware, because there were officials who reported the news, and now, the situation is completely reversed, Yang Yinglong's movements, the Ming army is well aware, how terrifying is it, a move of the Banzhou army, there will be four or five waves of people to report to the Ming army.

The local people are full of good feelings for this Ming army.

The key is still Yang Yinglong's foil, Yang Yinglong rarely gives grace and power, he is unhappy, that is, the stick is waved, causing the local people to be very afraid of Yang Yinglong, and now suddenly see the Ming army so bullish, they have fallen to the Ming army, with this big backer, they are finally no longer afraid of Yang Yinglong.

It's not your own here.

"Na Na Na, Director Chen, look at you, the five hills over there are also my family."

Mao Shoujue pointed to the mountain shrouded in white mist in the distance and said to Chen Douyan, who was walking in Yinuoya.

Chen Dou really wants to scold people, I am so smart to make so little money, you are so stupid, why do you have so much, it is really better to be born well, and said sourly: "Brother Mao, there are really enough mountains in your family!" ”

"Where, where." Mao Shoujue hurriedly became modest and modest, and asked again: "Director Chen, that's all, how much can I earn in a year?" ”

Chen Dou said: "If you calculate it in terms of tea and silk, you can make at least tens of thousands of taels of profit here a year, but you have to measure it to know that it must be only a lot more." ”

Mao Shoujue almost didn't cry when he heard this, did I live the first half of my life in the belly of a dog.

Chen Dou said: "But Brother Mao, in the future, the three-chamber system will be adopted here, and the employment system will be adopted, and the slaves will no longer exist, and this salary is also regulated, but it can no longer be like before." ”

"Understood, understood, I understand this, I have already seen it on Huang Ping's side."

Mao Shoujue waved his hand disappreciatively, for him, even if it was a mercenary system, it was much more than before.

No one can stop the charm of money.

This is fighting, these toasts have no intention of fighting, and they are concentrating on integrating their own property, this is the rhythm of making a fortune!

Everyone took care of production, and the local area immediately returned to calm.

Whether in the fields or in the forest, there are busy figures everywhere.

In the past, there was a combination of soldiers and civilians, but now it is completely differentiated, soldiers have become a profession, and a small number of people who want to fight go directly to join the army, but most of them have joined various workshops, especially the Fengchi Group.

Fengchi Group began to enter the stage of profitability, this transportation to be profitable, it must need a lot of trade support, at first it was only unilateral delivery of firearms, grain and grass, resulting in high costs, but now with the transportation of products here, and the improvement of transportation lines, the cost has been reduced a lot.

As for the war, the Ming army was all responsible.

"It seems that Governor Ye is the biggest enemy of my Shenji Battalion!"

Li Rusong smiled at Ye Mengxiong, who had just arrived.

Ye Mengxiong wondered, "How can Admiral Li say this?" ”

Li Rusong said: "I originally wanted to fight all the way in, but unfortunately Governor Ye, your rebellion was also successful, resulting in our army not firing a few cannons, and there are so many firearms, but there is no place for it." ”

"You......!"

Ye Mengxiong laughed a few times, and said: "Don't worry, this tough battle is still ahead, the people in Yuqing and other places are not convinced by Yang Yinglong, so we have a chance to take advantage of it, and in Jiangjin, Hejiang and other places, there are nine Miao tribes, all of them are brave and good at fighting, and they are brutal, before Yang Yinglong instigated the people of these nine tribes to plunder everywhere. ”

Li Rusong asked directly: "I don't know how many artillery pieces are needed to be able to raze their cottage to the ground with a salvo." ”

It's inhumane! Ye Mengxiong laughed dryly, nodded and said, "That's right, how can this flesh and blood body resist these indestructible artillery." As he spoke, he asked again, "How is the situation in Wujiang?" ”

Li Rusong said relaxedly: "With the support of our artillery, Yuan Shang and the others finally resisted Yang Yinglong's attack. ”

Although the Ming army is still in the outer circle of Yang Yinglong's sphere of influence, Wu Weizhong has not yet entered the Banzhou territory, because Yang Yinglong's main force is defending there, but the Battle of Banzhou has actually started, and the Wujiang side is in full swing.

This is all because Yang Yinglong himself died, he took the outside must first settle the inside, encircled and suppressed the local Tusi who opposed him, Tusi asked the Ming army for help, Wu Weizhong, Ye Mengxiong, and Li Rusong immediately dispatched firearms to support the Tusi.

Just as Yang Yinglong thought, if this artillery could be placed on his fortress, the Ming army would not even be able to enter the door.

He's trying it now.

A large number of artillery pieces were placed on the fortresses of the Tusi, and the Ming army sent the newly trained bird guns to various places to support them, and the artillery was mounted on the fortress, and the firing range was conceivable, and the bows and crossbows could not be approached at all.

The dense firepower network of the bird guns made the Banshu army feel desperate.

Originally, the Banzhou army was devastating, and the autumn wind swept away the leaves, this Yang Yinglong fought well, and the local Tusi was not his opponent at all, but soon all the battlefields fell into a stalemate.

The armaments of the two sides are far apart, although Brother Miao is brave and good at fighting, but after these rounds of artillery, he can no longer be brave.

To gnaw on the next fortress, the price is too great, and Yang Yinglong is not too reluctant, after all, the main force of the Ming army has not moved, and it is impossible for him to spend such a big price to capture those fortresses.

Ye Mengxiong now gradually understands that in fact, it was not their generals who really decided this battle, and they didn't do anything, even if they rebelled, it was because the Ming army went out this time and had abundant materials, not only did not disturb the people, but also helped many people, which made it very easy to rebel.

Human nature is to like to cling to the strong, the Ming army is handsome, handsome in war, rich, and strict military discipline, on the other hand, it is self-evident.

It was the Weihui Mansion that really decided the battle.

Ye Mengxiong is not the first time to lead troops to fight, but he has never fought this kind of battle, he was originally in charge of logistics, but the result is that he doesn't have to take care of logistics at all, and he can't manage it so well if he asks himself.

The soldiers of the Ming army really ate well, slept well, and never saw the enemy in many battles, and received a round of reward from time to time, and then got off work beautifully.

Ye Mengxiong asked Li Rusong again: "Then who is Guo Dan?" ”

Li Rusong blurted out: "Profiteers! The biggest profiteer since ancient times! If Governor Ye thinks that these artillery pieces and ammunition are all sent, then he is wrong, these are all bought by our army, but just by virtue of the increase in the shares of the Grand Canyon, it is enough to give us all these firearms, but the profiteer will definitely not agree to give it to us. ”

Ye Mengxiong sounded like a profiteer, but he was very curious and asked, "Isn't the treasury empty?" ”

Li Rusong said: "How can the treasury allocate so much money, this is all borrowed by His Majesty to buy." ”

“.......！”

Ye Mengxiong was speechless for a while.

The emperor borrowed money?

Can it be returned?

But he didn't dare to ask.

Li Rusong suddenly whispered: "Governor Ye, we don't have to worry about this, I'll tell you a secret, in fact, Dabozhou is just an outpost." ”

Ye Mengxiong was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "Are you talking about Dongwu?" ”

"Governor Ye is really smart."

Li Rusong nodded excitedly and said, "If we fight this battle well, Your Majesty may let us take advantage of the situation to go south and end the war with Dong Wude in one fell swoop." You see, the Fengchi Group is already building a warehouse to the south, and Banshu will become our granary at that time. ”

Guo Dan's ambition is not small, after he took Banzhou, they have to immediately stimulate the local economy, of course, it is still mainly agriculture, but it must also be commercialized, if you go further south, you can purchase Banzhou's materials on a large scale, which provides a very good opportunity for a Nuobao banknote, and Banzhou will definitely need a lot of currency.

......

A no-tooth line.

"Husband, this is all the expenses of this campaign so far."

Kou Zhuan Sha is about to give birth, but she still has a big belly and sticks to her post, but with this account alone, she can't sit at home and raise the baby, which is really exciting, but this makes the female employees of Yinuo Tooth Company feel anxious, if it goes on like this, then we will ....... pregnant in the future!

With Xin'er's support, Kou Liansha sat down slowly, "We have already spent two million taels. But the war has only lasted less than two months, and the total number of troops has not exceeded 100,000, in terms of this scale, this is already the battle that my Ming Dynasty spent the most money on. ”

"Two million taels?" Aunt Xu was slightly startled and said, "Didn't Your Majesty only borrow one million taels?" ”

"Because this includes the previous armament orders, including firearms, ammunition, uniforms, tents, quilts, and so on. ”

Under this glamorous war, huge wealth has been piled up.

Li Rusong, why are they so relaxed, it's not that Yang Yinglong is too weak, but that the logistics are too powerful, what do you really want, of course the combat effectiveness is high!

Having said that, with so much money and such a good weapon, who wouldn't fight.

Aunt Xu said, "Then do you still have money?" ”

According to the traditional concept, if so much money is spent, it must be a lack of succession, and then the army will be reckless, and finally the guilty will end up.

Kou Zhuansha said: "Originally, there should have been no money, but due to the joint-stock system of Fengchi Group, Marseille, and Fangyuan Xinxing, we raised hundreds of thousands of taels, plus the Grand Canyon also belongs to us, and it is we who spend money and make money, as well as the stock prices of Yinuo Yaxing and the Grand Canyon have risen, and we have not lost much." ”

Guo smiled lightly: "It is impossible to lose, we still have a Nuo Qianzhuang in our hands, Yinuo Education has no shareholding system, and at the end of this year, I plan to increase the number of shares on a large scale, Fengchi Group will increase its shares by 100,000 taels, and we will also increase its shares by 300,000 taels, and the Grand Canyon will also split shares on a one-to-one basis, and will sell shares in military towns such as Taiyuan and Jizhou." It's not a problem to make a small profit of one million taels. This meat is rotten in the pot, although this meat belongs to His Majesty, but this pot is on my back. ”

Aunt Xu was dumbfounded when she heard this, and she began to be a little unable to react, so who was paying for this battle.

She didn't know that Guo Dan didn't care about how much money was spent now, because he had the big killer of shares, and when the money was spilled, only a small part of it was in the hands of the workers, and finally existed under his own bedding, but most of it was earned by the businessman, it didn't matter, he could use the shares to suck the money back.

This money is not spent on the war, but on stimulating the stock price, the shares of the Grand Canyon have doubled, this armament order has not stopped, and everyone knows that if this battle is won, the armaments of the Ming army will definitely be placed in the Grand Canyon in the future.

Buying a stake in the Grand Canyon is a sure profit.

Guo Dan is now finally doing his old job, he is not responsible for any operational business, it is all done by the people below, he just sits in the office, acquires, merges or splits, monopolies, and then increases shares and splits shares.

And so on and so forth.

But this is really not cutting leeks, cutting leeks is a stock price that exceeds its own value a lot, it is called cutting leeks, and if it does not exceed, it is cultivating leeks.

It's like Fengchi Group, how can it be worth only 600,000 taels, basically it has monopolized the national transportation, as well as overseas transportation, but the potential of the land in Linqing is so much, it will be valued at 600,000 taels first, and then increase the shares to sell in other places.

Daming's potential is far more than that, there are still most domestic markets waiting to be developed, not to mention that there is a huge overseas market.

Guo Dandu doesn't like to look at his own accounts a little, because he knows that no matter how much money is spent, it doesn't make money fast, and it will take a few months to spend money on wars, Lao Tzu only needs to let five guns print a bunch of contracts, which is an income of hundreds of thousands of taels, can you still be faster than me.
