Hearing Zhou Li's words, Lin Ziran did not answer immediately, but became silent.

He knew very well that Zhou Li would not say these things for no reason, and these words were just said by Zhou Li on behalf of the senior management of Nanzhou Bank.

Nanzhou Bank wants to let itself send troops south, which is nothing more than to put pressure on the county guard, forcing the county guard to give up attacking Li Kun in the north, and completely give up the idea of unifying Luo'an County.

From this point of view, his side has the same interests as Nanzhou Bank.

Nanzhou Bank didn't want Jian Minggang to unify Luo'an County, and he was even more unwilling, and Li Kun and they were also unwilling.

It became inevitable that they would unite against Jian Minggang.

However, it is one thing to unite against Jianminggang, and it is another thing to directly send troops to attack the three counties and one district under the control of Jianminggang.

South of Lingchang is the three counties and one district directly controlled by the county guard, this large area is the most elite place in the entire Luo'an County, and it is also the lifeblood of Jianminggang, if he dares to take the initiative to send troops south at this time, Jianminggang will definitely be like thunder, and when the time comes, it may not be Jianminggang going north to attack Li Kun, but turning around and beating himself.

Then they are united against Jian Minggang, but it is impossible to say that they are stupid to go south to fight with Jian Minggang, and the others are hiding from the show.

Lin Ziran didn't think that he took the initiative to send troops south to the three counties and one district, and the three major feudal towns of Li Kun, Zhao Song, and Li Dingjun would definitely follow suit.

They may also take the opportunity to send troops, but they will definitely not be stupid to follow Lin Ziran to send troops at the first time.

There is a high probability that they will watch the play on the sidelines first, watch Lin Ziran and Jian Minggang fight to the death, consume each other's strength, and send troops when the time is almost right, so that it will be in their own interests.

But in this way, he Lin Ziran will not be forced to do so.

I went out and fought with Jian Minggang first, I don't know how many soldiers will be killed and wounded, how much ammunition will be lost, and when the fight is almost done, his strength will be almost consumed, how can he grab territory with the other three feudal towns at that time?

It's good if people don't take the opportunity to kill him Lin Ziran.

Of course, if Lin Ziran suffered a crushing defeat as soon as he went south, and at the same time, Jian Minggang still wanted to hold on to Lin Ziran and directly counterattack the six towns on the east bank of Lingchang and even Lianguan County, it is estimated that Zhao Song, Li Kun and Li Dingjun would send troops as soon as possible.

However, Lin Ziran was still unlucky.

In short, sending troops south to attack Jianminggang first is a matter of harming oneself and benefiting others, and Lin Ziran has never done this kind of thing.

Not before, not now, and never in the future.

He would rather do things that harm himself and others than do things that harm himself and others.

Although he had already made up his mind that he would not take the initiative to send troops south, Lin Ziran did not directly say no, but asked: "If you send troops south, I'm afraid it will not be easy, I don't know what suggestions you have?" ”

Zhou Lidao: "As long as the adults lead the army to the south, then our bank can provide another one million Hengyuan loan for the adults, without restricting any use, and at the same time ensure that the orders for ordnance and ammunition purchased by the adults will arrive unimpeded all the way!" ”

A million Henderson? Lin Ziran shook his head directly after hearing this number!

"A loan is naturally a good thing, but if it's only one million, it won't help much, and it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to fight a casual battle!"

One million Hengyuan sounds like a lot, especially for ordinary people, this is a huge amount of money, but for a feudal town with more than 10,000 troops and thousands of square kilometers of land, this million is nothing.

If it is used to raise the army, this million will only last for four or five months at most, and if it is a war, it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars after a few battles.

If you really want to send troops south, including the estimated loss of personnel, equipment and ammunition, even if everything goes well, you will not suffer any major losses, and if you fight hard, the cost alone will be hundreds of thousands.

If the troops of the county guard resist stubbornly, then the cost will be even greater, and millions of dollars will be easy.

Nanzhou Bank wanted to buy him to send troops south for one million Heng Yuan.

Even if you put aside the question of whether Lin Ziran is willing to go south, this money alone is not enough.

Zhou Li heard that he refused, and he didn't continue to increase the amount, this money is not how much he said, but the number given above, and the feudal town that Nanzhou Bank needs to woo is not known to be the only one Lin Ziran, Li Kun, Zhao Song and Li Dingjun have people to talk about.

The money of the Nanzhou Bank is not blown by the wind, it is all earned by hard work to lend and sell ordnance, and even if it is willing to pay in order to maintain the situation in Luo'an County, it is impossible to pay money without restraint.

The one million that was distributed to Lin Ziran was actually a lot, and this money was actually the loan that was prepared to be provided to Jian Minggang before.

Zhou Li didn't continue to say anything in terms of funds, but prepared other words, and he also knew that it would be difficult for this million to impress Lin Ziran now.

After all, the current Lin Ziran is no longer the Lin Ziran of a year ago, Zhou Li gave him one million a year ago, and Lin Ziran sent troops to fight without saying a word.

But now, he knows that Lin Ziran's territory is not small.

Today, Lin Ziran, as the county guard of Lianguan County and the commander of the Sixth Division, controls all of Lianguan County, the six towns on the east bank of the Luohe River in Lingchang County, and the four towns in Nan'an County, Guang'an County, near the north of Lianguan County, with a total area of more than 4,000 square kilometers and a population of hundreds of thousands.

Although most of these places are relatively barren, there are also many plain grain producing areas, especially the six towns on the east bank of Lingchang, don't look at this place is small, but it is a grain producing area, all of which are farmland, with large grain production and high population density.

When these territories were controlled by Cheng Lingfeng in the past, more than two million yuan could be collected from conventional taxes alone.

It is worth mentioning that there is a price to be paid for collecting so many taxes.

In these places where agriculture is the core industry, the agricultural tax is very heavy.

In fact, the local farmers own a lot of land and grow a lot of food every year, but most of the output needs to be used to pay taxes, so they are poor, and many of them even need to go out to do odd jobs or even work in factories to support their families.

And you must know that a few decades ago, the farmers in Daheng lived a very good life, although the agricultural tax in Daheng at that time was also not light, but at that time the farmers in Daheng were definitely not poor, and it was still possible to rely on the land to support their families.

Because Daheng fucks up again, it is also an orthodox unified dynasty, and it will not be tossed around.

But now the feudal towns are eager to collect all the peasants' rations as military expenses.
