Chapter 669: The Great Han Tongbao (Supplement, 8/15)
After Mu Jing and Cai Yong had a long talk, they stabilized Cai Yong, at least not let Cai Yong disrupt the deployment of the Minghou Mansion in the next two or three years.
The counterattack on the Chang'an Imperial Court was originally a matter of suspense.
At least for the next two years, Mujing will not be considered.
At least we have to wait for Lu Bu's anti-bone boy to turn back.
With the strength of the herding army, the defense is acceptable, and the attack is definitely insufficient, and if it is rashly fought, it will inevitably be a battle in which an egg touches a stone.
This kind of risky thing, Mu Jing naturally does not do.
Cai Yong is different from himself.
When Mu Jing broke through in the south, he had already drawn a clear line between himself and the Han family, no matter whether he had a chance or not, in the future, he would be the master of his own house, and he would never allow another person to be on his head.
And Cai Yong always thinks that he is a Hanchen, the way of Hanchen, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, loyal to the monarch in front, even if he doesn't quite admit that he is today's son, but he will still treat the Son of Heaven as a monarch to be loyal.
Even Cai Yong hopes that Mu Jing can forget the past and return to the imperial court.
Some people are so naΓ―ve in their thinking.
It's just that this person is still Cai Yong, so he has to coax, don't expect Cai Yong to serve him, at least don't let him cause trouble.
Naturally, this matter can't be hidden from Hu Zhao.
After Mu Jing returned to Zhaoming Hall, Hu Zhao immediately came to the door: "Has Cai Xianjiu been convinced?" β
"For the time being, I should be convinced!"
Mu Jing smiled bitterly: "But if the prince continues to instigate, I'm afraid the old man will think again, and some things have to be guarded again!" β
"Do you want to cut off Wang Situ's letter?"
"No!"
Mu Jing shook his head: "The old man is so shrewd, he can feel some things when he does them, and there is no need to do it, it is still in us at all, the Minghou Mansion needs to have the influence to influence the world, in order to isolate the old man's thoughts that he should not have, shatter his last extravagant hope, and make him truly identify with us!" β
"The fame of Cai Sai Liquor is comparable to the world, but there are only a few people!"
Hu Zhao said softly: "If he can completely use the lord and come forward to wave the flag for the lord, the lord's reputation will immediately shatter the previous notoriety and re-establish his reputation in Shilin!" β
"The old man has such prestige?" Mu Jing squinted, this really can't be seen.
"The lord must not think that Cai Saijiu is trapped in Taixue, and he has lost his reputation in the world, he alone can be compared to thousands of troops, how many students are willing to listen to his name, and they will be convinced!" Hu Zhao said.
"It is said that the Han is the world of scholars, and sure enough, it is not!"
Mu Jing smiled bitterly.
"It's already a good result to be able to stabilize Cai Sai Wine!" Hu Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's take a step next, take a step, it's just that in Chang'an, we may need to invest more energy, at least the news can't be broken!" β
"Hmm!"
Mu Jingdao: "I have already instructed Tan Zong, he will personally go north, Chang'an has to develop well, at least buy a few court officials, for our use, in order to accurately control the trend of the court!" β
"I just sent a report from Shandu!" Hu Zhao handed him a scroll in his hand.
"It hasn't been long since this drama has just started, and the front line is fighting so soon?"
Mu Jing frowned: "Huang Zhong is a little anxious!" β
"No!"
Hu Zhao said: "It's Yizhou that is in a hurry, Yizhou moves, we don't move, don't we give them time to prepare, so Huang Zhongdong is right, it doesn't matter whether he can take Fancheng or not, at least hold the troops of Xiangyang!" β
"This Yizhou is really okay!" Mu Jing sneered: "Isn't this a disguised way to coerce us into sending troops?" β
"Since Yizhou has done this, our strategic deployment is to cater to them, and it is inevitable to send troops!" Hu Zhao said: "Fortunately, on the front line, we have also prepared for some time, and it will not affect the strategic deployment too much!" β
"Still keep an eye on it!"
Mu Jing said softly: "Jingzhou is not easy to fight, this is a hornet's nest, if you stab it, maybe you will be provoked into a big mess, and you can't underestimate the enemy, in the name of Beiwutang, you give an order to tell Xi Zhicai Huang Zhong and them, if they really can't fight, allow them to collect troops and come back!" β
Liu Biao is a person who is called a dog by many people in history.
He is indeed lacking in progress.
But it is undeniable that he has an extraordinary ability to guard his family, Liu Bei is powerful, but under his hands, he can only obediently guard the northern gateway for him, and it is not good to say, if Liu Biao is not dead, Liu Bei will not have Jingzhou as an opportunity, where will the Three Kingdoms be established in the future.
So you can't underestimate Liu Biao.
"The lord doesn't seem to be very optimistic about attacking Jingzhou this time!" Hu Zhaodao.
"Hmm!"
Mu Jing said: "It's possible to lay some ground, but if you want to eat Liu Biao, I don't think you can do it!" β
The best plan is to eat Nanjun and Wuling.
This is enough to support the results of their battle, if he wants to take the entire Jingzhou, he doesn't have a big appetite like Liu Yan, even if the soldiers and horses of Yizhou pour out, he can't do it.
"Yizhou and our Hanzhong can't join forces?" Hu Zhao frowned, he was still very optimistic before, after all, Yizhou's troops were very strong, but militarily, his headquarters was suspicious of Mu Jing's gaze.
"No way!" Mujing Road.
"Is Liu Biao so difficult to beat?"
"Liu Jingsheng, if you want to say that he is a powerful opponent, it is not necessarily, if you leave Jingzhou, I can beat him in minutes, but in Jingzhou, he does have some ability, at least he has the hearts of the people!"
"It seems that our strategic deployment of Jingzhou is going to change!" Hu Zhao gritted his teeth.
"No!"
Mu Jing shook his head: "We just know in our hearts, how to fight on the front line, let them decide, without this morale, if they can't fight, they can fight as much as they can!" β
"That's right!"
Hu Zhao immediately understood Mu Jing's plan.
"Our main force is to fight in Jingzhou, Nanyang, there needs to be someone to shake it!" Mu Jing looked at Hu Zhao: "Let's go, whether it's to appease the people's hearts, or to shake the Yuan army in Nanyang, at least we can't let those counties in Nanyang have a tendency to be chaotic!" β
"Good!"
Hu Zhao nodded, the Minghou Mansion can be the master, so he took a few, one is Mu Jing, one is him, and the other is Xi Zhicai, Liu Jin is a little worse, if you want to calm people's hearts, this matter really needs him to go in person.
Hu Zhao prepared for a few days, and after arranging things with Liu Jin, he selected more than ten officials, and embarked on the road to Nanyang in the name of inspection.
And Mu Jing didn't have the energy to care about the affairs of Nanyang and the battlefield in Jingzhou at this time.
He put all his energy into one thing.
The Minghou Mansion minted a new coin.
This will replace the currency currently in Nanyang, the capital of Hanzhong, and it will also be a monetary change.
β¦β¦
Minghou Mansion, Jin Cao.
Jin Cao, palm currency, tun gold cake.
Jin Cao's chief was an old minister in the period of Emperor Ling, who was already fifty years old, named Nangong Deng, and he was a Jiuqing official above the imperial court at the beginning.
"Lord, it took more than half a year to create a coin!"
Nangong Deng handed the coin in his hand to Mu Jing.
"Dahan Tongbao!"
Mu Jing pinched the five-baht coin in his hand, this is a five-baht coin, but the appearance of the creation is a little different, this is no longer a five-baht coin, it is a Tongbao.
They are all copper coins, but before the Tang Dynasty, five beads were used, and after the Tang Dynasty, Tongbao was used.
This copper coin, the front is the upper pass, the lower treasure, the left large, the right Han, the full name is the Han Tongbao.
The back side is a pattern, a coiled dragon lingers in the middle of the square hole, carved very finely, you must know that for this coinage, the Ming Hou Mansion has come back from Chang'an to rob a few masters of coinage.
Nowadays, the small money issued by Chang'an is too rough, and the most important thing is that the weight is too light, which can not withstand the test of the market at all, and also caused the economic chaos of Chang'an.
"This copper coin is very well done!"
Mu Jing pinched it and agreed with this copper coin, which must be the currently popular five-baht coin to be very fine, and the weight is not bad, instead, it should be no problem.
"Liu Jin!"
"In!" Liu Jin personally took command and led Jin Cao to play out this Tongbao, so he naturally knew the importance of it.
"Hanzhong, Nanyang, Wudu, how many merchants can be gathered, how many can be gathered!" Mu Jing said softly: "This time, I want to make a big change, and completely replace all the coins under my Minghou Mansion with the Great Han Tongbao, and in the future, under the Minghou Mansion, I can only use our Great Han Tongbao!" β
"No!"
Liu Jin nodded.
This is a big move, once it succeeds, then the Minghou Mansion will make a lot of money, at least completely hold the currency power in its hands.
