Chapter 439: This is a national war

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking······" Shen Jungao muttered, "You will only make Li Shizhong and our Da Chen go farther and farther away······"

"As for grain, if I'm not mistaken, the grain in Xiangzhou was not transferred out last year, right?" Zhou Qu also heard Shen Jungao's whisper, and simply changed the topic.

No matter what Shen Jungao says, it is unlikely that Chen Ji will be able to listen to it, but if he talks too much, he may get into trouble. Although the East Palace is not without the ability to directly argue with Chen Ji now, it is just that at this time it is the time when the war between the Northern Zhou and the Southern Chen is about to break out, if there is a contradiction between the Southern Chen government and the opposition at this time, then I am afraid that the happiest is the Northern Zhou.

Shen Jungao sighed secretly in his heart and nodded: "At that time, in order to prepare for the battle of Jingzhou, the grain in Xiangzhou and other places at that time was concentrated in Baling, and it was not transported to Huainan and other places as usual. ”

Most of the southern part of Jingzhou is mountainous, and only Xiangzhou, which is now Changsha, has enough plains to cultivate land and store grain. This is also the reason why the Southern Dynasties specifically separated Xiangzhou from the entire Jingzhou system in order to prevent the civil and military generals of Jingzhou from becoming big.

Previously, in the direction of Jingzhou, Nan Chen, Western Liang and Northern Zhou were just a simple confrontation, and both sides did not have enough troops and horses to fight, so there was not much need for food. Therefore, only a small part of the grain in Xiangzhou is supplied to Jingzhou, and the rest will be transferred north to Huainan.

As a result, because of the last Jingzhou War, the grain and grass were gathered in Baling to prepare to support Xiao Maha, who would have thought that Xiao Maha would pacify Jingzhou in such a short time. So there is still a large amount of grain hoarded in Baling.

And these grains are still nominally under the jurisdiction of Lu Guangda, and they are also within the control of the East Palace. Now that the Northern Zhou Dynasty has begun to transfer troops into Shu, Jingzhou will not be able to fight, and these grains can naturally be mobilized.

"The transfer of these grains still requires His Majesty's consent, after all, the amount is too large." Shen Jun raised his eyebrows and tightened his eyebrows, "Duke Zhou, your writing is the best, you come to write a chapter, let's go to meet Your Majesty to ask for this!" ”

Zhou did not hesitate to respond: "It's easy to write a chapter, but it's ······"

Both Shen Jungao and Fu Wei fell silent.

Yes, for a person like Zhou Qu who has learned to be rich and rich, it is just a matter of splashing ink and in a blink of an eye, and the key is whether His Majesty will agree to it.

"Nothing else, we'll have to give it a try!" Shen Jungao gritted his teeth and said, "Don't go directly to see Your Majesty first, let's go to find Xiao Mugong and Master Pei." The soldiers can't be transferred, and even the grain and grass can't be transferred, so what are the three of us guys still doing in Jiankang Mansion, it's better to directly pick up the guys and go to Bashu to fight to the death with that barbarian! ”

Shen Jungao was moved, and Zhou Qu and Fu Wei also nodded solemnly.

They have been officials for half their lives, but they are not the kind of people who like to pick up bargains behind their backs. Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian and other good men are eating ice and snow on the front line, fighting bloodily, and these old guys can't help behind their backs, can this old face still hang up?

After a hundred years, what kind of face will everyone have to meet those soldiers who fought in front of them?

"This is a national war, even if Your Majesty disagrees, we have to persuade Your Majesty!" Zhou Qu's voice cut through the ice and snow, "Even if Li Shizhong has more, he can't lose this battle, otherwise it will ruin my Da Chen's foundation!" After that, Da Chen wanted to go one step further, no less than ascending to the sky. Let's go, the old man will go to find Xiao Mugong, you can go to Lord Pei, the official Shangshu, and even Lord Yuan, the secretary of the ministry, even if they are impartial on weekdays, they have to understand the priorities at this juncture. ”

Needless to say, Pei Ji, the official secretary of the capital, has always stood on the side of the East Palace, and Yuan Xian, the secretary of the ministry, is famous for his upright personality, and has been appreciated by Chen Ji many times.

After all, no matter what you say, Yuan Xian has not yet made a clear statement that he is on the side of the East Palace, so Chen Ji must grasp these centrist ministers more firmly.

Shen Jungao and Fu Wei glanced at each other and responded.

As Zhou Qu said, now they are fighting a national war, and no matter what happens in the future, this battle cannot be lost.

Even Chen Shubao, who was originally sleepy, got up at this time: "What you have said is very true, go into the palace and contact the fourth brother and Sister Lechang, they must also know the severity of this matter, and they will definitely help!" ”

Shen Jungao's faces couldn't help but show joy, for the first time, they felt that the hard work they had put in for so long was not in vain, and Chen Shubao was finally able to stand up and take responsibility, this was the king they wanted to serve in their hearts.

Needless to say, Princess Lechang has a twist and turn between this girl and Li Xinchen, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it clearly. And Chen Shujian, the fourth son of Changsha Wang, has always had a good relationship with Chen Shubao, and he is also a person who is dissatisfied with Chen Shuling, and he is half a comrade-in-arms.

In order to show that he had no intention of fighting for the throne, he did not go to the fiefdom of Changsha in Xiangzhou, but stayed in Jiankang Mansion, but at least nominally he was still the assassin of Xiangzhou and controlled the soldiers and horses of Xiangzhou, so in fact, the grain and grass of Baling should be under the jurisdiction of Chen Shujian.

In history, Chen Shuling intended to assassinate Chen Shubao at Chen Ji's funeral, but it was Chen Shujian who arrived in time, blocked Chen Shuling's final fatal blow, and cooperated with Xiao Maha to finally defeat Chen Shuling.

Although Chen Shujian has not yet had the opportunity to express his loyalty to Chen Shubao, his attitude towards the East Palace is enough for Chen Shubao to give him such an opportunity.

"It's still watching what Lone does, go quickly!" Chen Shubao suddenly realized that Shen Jungao's eyes were still focused on him, and he immediately waved his hand dissatisfiedly, and he walked out first, "Don't go wrong!" ”

Shen Jungao and the others were a little stunned, but immediately arched their hands excitedly: "Obey!" ”

And Chen Shubao was very complacent about the respect of Shen Jungao and others, and muttered: "There is Lechang, there is a fourth brother, my father should not refuse······

——————————————————-

"Wei Chi Yuan, Wei Xiaokuan ······" Chen Ji held the military newspaper in his hand that was exactly the same as what everyone in the East Palace saw, read the two names in a low voice, and sneered, "Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian really look up to that shaft!" ”

As he spoke, Chen Ji's gaze shifted to the map next to him.

He doesn't know how many times he has read this map, and he can even say that he is familiar with it by heart, but when he saw Bashu on the edge of the map, he still had a sense of dazed and powerless in his heart.

It was a place he had never been, a place he simply could not grasp. And in the foreseeable future, a big war will break out in that place, but this one may even be related to the final victor of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and it has nothing to do with him.

Perhaps his understanding of Li Xinchen and Ba Jun is not as good as that of the Northern Zhou court.
