Outside the big tent, there was a sudden burst of laughter and scolding, and then three people walked in, one was graceful and luxurious, and at first glance, he was a prince and a prince, and the remaining two were contrasting, one was tall and fat with a big belly, and the other was very thin, and he was squeezing his eyebrows like a monkey.

"Second brother, see and hear, Wu Hao." Qu Xiangtian shouted, and then walked forward quickly, and hugged the three people, they haven't seen each other for a few years, except for Lu Yunzhi who often walks between a few people over the years, the rest of the people have never met, just now Wu Hao sent Zhu Qigang to the east side of Xuwen County, and then set up the camp tent to settle Zhu Qigang, and then went out of the camp to follow Ah Rong to meet in the Qu Xiangtian camp, I didn't expect to meet Zhu Jianwen and Fang Qingze on the road, the three of them talked all the way, it turned out that the two of them had just met, So the three of them appeared in the big tent of Qu Xiangtian at the same time,

After several people recounted their respective situations, Zhu Jianwen said: "Lu Yunzhi, it's time for you to tell everyone about your overall plan, this time you threaded the needle and threaded everyone together, how we should fight, how to do it, now is the time to reveal." ”

Lu Yunzhi stood up and said to Qu Xiangtian in two sentences, Qu Xiangtian brought the Ming Territory Map, and everyone hung up the Territory Map, and then Lu Yunzhi walked to the map and said: "First of all, in the Northwest Frontier, the second brother and the leopard and the elite led by my uncle Chao Xing will attack, you will turn into bandits, keep conquering the town, and then use some monetary means to appease the people in the city, and bribe local officials, of course, this also needs Lao Zhu You to cooperate, and you should greet familiar officials privately in advance, and try to avoid casualties brought by resistance." Although this army has a new type of weapon invented by the second brother, and most of them are composed of leopards and other ghost eaters and mercenaries of the second brother, and the combat effectiveness is relatively strong, but the number is too small, and after entering the city, it will have to recruit troops. ”

"Yunzhi, what is the effect of this." Murong Yunfei questioned,

Lu Yunzhi replied with a slight smile: "In this way, the local defenders are not enough to resist the attack of the second brother, if the army stationed at the border pass comes to exterminate it, the second brother must remember not to fall in love with the war, as long as the enemy army approaches you, he will withdraw, I think the border guards will never dare to go all out to search for you, they are also afraid of Timur and Yili who are eyeing the tiger, if the court sits idly by, it is a good opportunity to expand their strength, but I think they will not watch us grow, so they will definitely send troops to suppress it, and at this time they will have to fight hard once or twice." At the same time, I also made an agreement with the ghosts and witches that they would press the troops to the north at this time, and the imperial court would divide the troops to garrison. ”

Qu Xiangtian suddenly interrupted Lu Yunzhi's speech: "Third brother, why did you cooperate with Mongolian ghosts and witches. Murong Yunfei looked at Lu Yunzhi with interest, and then said: "Xiangtian, don't be in a hurry to listen to Yunzhi's words, although the Mongolian ghosts and witches are hateful, they are not our current enemies, of course it is best to form an alliance, don't be angry." Qu Xiangtian nodded, but he felt a little awkward in his heart, exhaled angrily, and stretched out his hand to let Lu Yunzhi continue.

"Big brother atoning for your sins, I'll explain this to you later." Lu Yunzhi bowed to Qu Xiangtian with his hands clenched into his fists and said, "As my sister-in-law said before, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, if they send troops to suppress it from a long distance, it must be that the husband and wife are separated and the family cannot be reunited, and there are complaints in people's hearts. This time Zhu Qiyu will definitely protect Yu Qian, but in fact, Yu Qian himself protects himself, because Zhu Qiyu is nothing more than a tall oriole bird, the real powerful is Yu Qian, the big tiger, it can be said that the current Zhu Qiyu is a puppet, but whether it is a puppet or not, he is also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and naturally he can also take back some of the power given to Yu Qian, Yu Qian is a loyal minister, naturally he will not openly disobey the king's orders, this joint letter is only to increase the rift between the monarch and the minister, Of course, this time after the book, it will not achieve such an effect, but it will be soon, because the second brother has acted. ”

Lu Yunzhi looked at Fang Qingze as he spoke, Fang Qingze smiled and said: "This is a plan that has been arranged for several years, I call it a business war, and attack from all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation. Wu Hao scratched his head and asked, "Then what does this have to do with Zhu Jianwen's political party attacking Yu Qian." Zhu Jianwen smiled at the corner of his mouth, as if he understood something, so he said to Wu Hao: "You listen to Fang Fatzi first." ”

Fang Qingze nodded and continued: "My shop has been buying grain from the government in recent years, buying at a high price and selling it at a low price, and letting the government purchase from the people, although when purchasing, the government still left a part of the rebate, but the price has increased a lot higher than the market price, so this is why the farmers have gradually become rich in recent years, everyone regards our grain store as a fool, and even some people sell the grain to the government and then buy grain from our store, under the advancement of this situation, the people only have a few days of grain in their hands, They developed the habit of buying after eating, and the grain in the grain depots in various places was only enough to pay tribute to the treasury, and our grain was secretly transferred, and there was not much grain in the warehouses in the stores, and if we suddenly closed all the grain stores two months after the army started, it was the winter when there was no grain in all places, and everyone thought about what would happen in the world. ”

"Non-catastrophic food shortages." Qu Xiangtian nodded and said, "And at this moment, the grain in our hands is enough to supply our army for a year, and there are secret granaries in various places, not to mention the need to transport grain back and forth. ”

Fang Qingze laughed, and then said: "This is in contrast to what the third brother just said, in the northwest and northern Xinjiang, under the simultaneous persecution of the two places, the grain and grass reserves in various places are too busy to take care of themselves and cannot supply the troops, so they can only spend a lot of effort to send grain from the Liangjing granary, and it is very possible for the people to follow us in order to eat a mouthful, isn't it necessary to live to be able to eat and drink enough since ancient times, plus I have been privately printing Daming treasure banknotes in recent years, and the circulation of this kind of treasure banknotes has exceeded the reserves of gold and silver. My private printing has accelerated the depreciation of this treasure banknote, the treasure money in the hands of the people cannot buy food, let alone buy food substitutes, at this moment we have food to eat, and the court is hungry, who will they follow. ”

Zhu Jianwen heard the loud applause here, and said: "Troops are in turmoil in various places, the people are not living, the world is about to collapse, if I impeach Yu Qian again from the court, Zhu Qiyu will have a disagreement with Yu Qian for his own country, Lu Yunzhi's trick is used well, and it is a good integration of business and government." ”
