Chapter 1291: A dilemma

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In the governor's mansion, Zhang Liang stood by the window, watching the warships lined up on the river spewing flames and black smoke, accompanied by a deafening sound, water columns rising up on the water surface.

Zhang Liang's face was ugly.

Although he did not operate it himself, he only looked at the huge column of water splashed on the surface of the water after the cannon was fired, and he could see that once it hit the enemy ship, it would be destroyed and shattered in an instant!

There is no doubt that the battleships equipped with this kind of artillery will be the main force of the naval army of the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, but he, the chief of the Canghaidao march, can only watch the excitement from afar...... In the future crusade, it is conceivable that he is in a water position.

originally thought that if he got the position of the head of the Canghai Road March, he would definitely be able to take charge of the upcoming Eastern Expedition and become the commander of the Tang Naval Division.

And yet now......

A sullen feeling was in his chest, and Zhang Liang couldn't wait to scold his mother!

The confidant Cheng Gongying hurriedly walked in from outside, and when he saw Zhang Liang turning his head with a gloomy face, he naturally knew the mood of this handsome man at this moment.

But the stakes were so high that he didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Marshal Qiyu, just now the quartermaster came to report that the food in the army has run out and can only last for three days...... In addition, the spring rain continued and the climate was humid, and many soldiers had ulcers in their hands and feet and even gastrointestinal discomfort, and the army was in urgent need of medicinal materials for treatment. ”

Zhang Liang's eyes jumped, his face was so black that he could drip water, and his eyes were full of anger that he tried to contain!

It's just too deceitful!

The dignified general manager of the Canghai Road march will actually be reduced to the point where there is no military food to put in the pot and no medicinal materials to heal the soldiers? This is still the richest Jiangnan in the territory of Datang, it is unbelievable!

That's just the way it is!

Canghaidao is a temporary yamen, in charge of the East China Sea Division, not in the daily establishment of the military department, the required baggage naturally cannot be obtained from the center, and all logistics and supplies are in charge of the Suzhou Thorn History Office. But that Suzhou Thorn Shi Mu Yuanzuo is simply a bastard, and he is in collusion with Fang Jun, saying that the Suzhou Treasury is empty and the materials are unsustainable, and the baggage that should have been allocated to Zhang Liang is squeezed to the minimum without limit, and often only one or two percent of the ten percent is allocated......

Does this still make people live?

Zhang Liang also went to theorize several times, and the soft and hard of Wen's martial arts were all used again, but there was no effect at all. The Suzhou Assassin is a feudal official of the imperial court, although the title is not as high as Zhang Lianggao, but the civil and military affairs are not subordinate to each other, and he is not the chief manager at all......

Looking at the generals who command the side of the world, is there anyone more aggrieved than him Zhang Liang?

It's a laughing stock in the world......

Holding back the anger churning in his chest, Zhang Liang asked, "Is there any action on the side of the Jiangnan Shi clan, and have the promised grain and grass materials been transported?" ”

Do you want to return to Chang'an and cry to Your Majesty?

This is absolutely not a no-no.

Zhang Liang knows His Majesty Li Er's temperament very well, don't emphasize any difficulties to him, he only looks at the results. What qualifications does a commander who is troubled everywhere and who is unable to sustain his food and grass burden have the right to cry in front of him?

As a last resort, Zhang Liang could only compromise with the Jiangnan Shi clan.

even did not hesitate to instruct the Jingzhong family to be enemies of Jingzhao Mansion and resist Fang Jun's East Market renovation plan......

As long as he can persist until the beginning of the Eastern Crusade, even if he cannot be the commander of the Eastern Crusade Naval Division, he will have a share of the credit. On the contrary, if you can't survive that time, you can only return to Chang'an in disgrace, and your reputation will be lost in this corner of the south of the Yangtze River......

Cheng Gongying's face was ugly, and he shook his head and said: "The original agreement was to send food and medicinal materials yesterday, but until now, there is no movement, and I don't know if something has happened to those families?"

The Xingyang Zhang clan stood up to resist Fang Jun, and the Jiangnan Shi clan, who had countless shops in the East City, secretly funded Zhang Liang, which was a quid pro quo that the two sides had secretly reached.

Could it be that the Jiangnan Shi clan wants to go back on their word?

Zhang Liang felt that things were faintly wrong, and asked, "What have those Jiangnan Shi clans done recently?" ”

"I haven't found anything wrong, but I still trade in Huating Town as always, and the goods are in and out every day, which is quite prosperous."

"Send someone to urge and see what the hell is going on? If these Jiangnan scholars dare to and pee on Lao Tzu's head, they have to learn from that Fang Jun, so that they can give them a little color! ”

Zhang Liang commanded with anger.

It's just that Fang Jun is powerful on his own head, and you clowns who jump off the beam dare to go back on your word and play tricks on me?

It's really still the time of the Great Sui!

"Whoa!"

Cheng Gongying answered, turned around and walked out.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he turned back again, followed by Gongsun Chang, one of Zhang Liang's fake sons......

Gongsun Chang walked in in a panic and shouted, "Dashuai, it's not a good thing!" ”

Zhang Liang's heart jumped and said, "Why are you so flustered? As long as Ben Shuai is here, the sky can't fall! ”

"......" Gongsun Chang was frightened, swallowed his saliva, came to Zhang Liang in three steps and two steps, handed Zhang Liang a letter sealed with fire paint, and said quickly: "Jingzhong sent someone to come, saying that our family's shops in Dongshi were all demolished by Fang Jun's house, and the rubble was everywhere and it was a mess......

"What?!"

Zhang Liang's eyes were cracked, and he yelled: "Fang Jun Xiao'er, how dare you deceive me so far!" ”

The shops in the East Market are not only Zhang's family property, used to collect money, but also the face of Xingyang Zhang's family! This side has just reached a tacit understanding with the Jiangnan Shi clan, and Fang Jun has been asked to demolish all the shops and buildings...... What other face does Xingyang Zhang have based on Guanzhong?

How else does he Zhang Liang stand in the court?

Fang Jun Xiaoer, I will never die with you!

Zhang Liang was so angry that his eyes were about to pop out, and he took the letter in Gongsun Chang's hand, tore open the seal with a "tear", and looked at it at a glance.

Gongsun Chang said angrily: "That Fang Jun is simply too deceitful, so he tramples the face of the handsome man on the ground, if he stops, how can the face of the handsome remain?" Why don't you let a certain lead a team of dead soldiers, return to Beijing and assassinate the mallet under the knife, and save face for the marshal! Even if you die, you don't hesitate to do it! ”

Cheng Gongying also said: "We have been forced to the Jedi by Fang Jun, if we don't fight back, won't it make the world laugh?" ”

Among the family gate valves, face is an extremely important thing, representing honor and status.

Often for the sake of the family's face, any interests can be sacrificed, even including the lives of the children in the family......

If Xingyang Zhang launched a counterattack, even if he was still oppressed by Fang Jun in the end, it would be inferior and would arouse sympathy; But if Fang Jun is allowed to do whatever he wants, it can only be exchanged for a shameful laugh, and in the future, Xingyang Zhang will become a laughing stock and will not be able to gain a foothold.

But Zhang Liang looked at the letter in his hand, and his originally angry expression gradually calmed down......

After a long time, he handed the letter in his hand to Gongsun Chang, sighed lightly, and said, "Take a look." ”

Gongsun Chang took the letter with a stunned face, and Cheng Gongying also came over, and the two watched together.

After reading the letter, Gongsun often scratched his head: "This ...... How can there be such a twist? ”

He only listened to the messenger and what happened in Beijing, and did not open the letter first. The servant only knew that the family's shop in Dongshi had been forcibly demolished, and the children were even imprisoned in Jingzhao Mansion, but Zhang Shenwei's agreement with Fang Jun was not known at all, so Gongsun Chang didn't know the inside story.

After reading the letter at this moment, I realized that Zhang Shenwei had reached an agreement with Fang Jun in private......

Cheng Gongying read the letter and hurriedly said: "Dashuai, according to his humble position, what Da Lang did is really the most appropriate choice. In this way, we are not throwing ourselves at Fang Jun, but on His Majesty's side, this is the long-term solution! ”

Is it still on the side of the Saga gate valve?

Or change course, abandon the family gate valve and stand behind the emperor again?

Zhang Liang was a little difficult to make a decision for a while.

These two sides have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Standing on the side of the family's gate valve, although he can get the support of the Jiangnan Shi clan, but the Jingzhong family will inevitably be hit hard, and with Fang Jun's decisiveness and ruthlessness, the loss is simply incalculable; If you stand behind the emperor again, you can quickly get rid of the current predicament, but your reputation is stinking......

Towards Qin and Dusk, half-hearted, and the grass on the wall falls with the wind...... In the future, it will be his bright signboard.

How to choose?

Zhang Liang was upset and had a dilemma.

At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran in from outside the door and shouted: "Great marshal, the big thing is not good, the battleship of the Royal Sailor is coming!" ”
