Chapter 643: Trading

Cao Xiushi was the chief historian of Chenzhou after the Pingtan War, and he may have been qualified to talk to Han Qian three or four years ago, but at this time, he was questioned by Han Qian, his face was depressed, his mouth was open, and he could only look at Shen Yang and Zheng Chang with his eyes......

Shen Yang's face sank like water, and after a long silence, he said to Cao Xiushi and Zhou Qinian: "You go outside and wait first." ”

The matter is poked, at least at this moment, Tangyi has enough reason.

No one can say that the 4,000 elite Xuzhou are wrong in rounding up the thieves, and no one can falsely argue that Xuzhou will definitely plant and attack the Chenzhou camp at this time, and has the ambition of annexing Chenzhou.

In particular, the Tangyi army has just recovered the twelve counties of the three states of Huaixi, and the soldiers and horses have expanded to more than 60,000 people, and the Shouzhou army in the north is panicked, not to mention that it has the ability to counterattack the hinterland of Huaixi, and it is difficult to even contain the main force of the Tangyi army.

Cao Xiushi glanced at Zhou Qinian, and when he saw Zhou Qinian supporting the case, he walked out of the hall; Then Qin Wen, Guo Rong, Feng Yi, Wang Zhe, Han Chengmeng and others all walked out of the hall one after another, watching the guards close a row of wooden doors in the hall, and they waited patiently under the corridor.

In the huge hall, in the end, Shen Yang, Zheng Chang, Han Daoming, Yao Xishui, Yuan Guowei, and Han Qian were left to sit behind their respective long cases.

"What should Xuzhou do before agreeing to withdraw troops?" Shen Yang also lifted the veil of coyness, looked at Han Qian and asked directly.

"I handed it to Jingzhong, and Master Shen has seen it?" Han Qian asked.

"I've seen it. Since you have led the Tangyi camp to set up the government army to sit in Huaixi, you have the right to do it in an emergency. Regardless of whether your so-called expulsion of Hu Lu is justified or not, the Tangyi camp and the government army recovered the twelve counties of Huaixi, so that more than 500,000 people and 500 miles of land were returned to the territory of Great Chu, which is indeed a visible and undeniable merit for all......," Shen Yang said.

Shen Yang's words are also very clear, he does not agree with what Han Qian said in the recital, but no one can deny the merits of the Tangyi army; At this time, it is inappropriate to argue with the truth, or to insist on Han Qian's head to be hated as a collaborator.

Yao Xishui and Zheng Chang understood better in their hearts that there were only 30,000 guards in Beijing, and Han Qian had 60,000 elite soldiers across the river, so what was the use of arguing about these truths at this time?

Buckle the hat of collaborator, but it can't be punished, it is better to treat Han Qian's letter as a letter, or as if it is to send a message with ventilation and the daughter of Emperor Zhu Yu of Liang was captured by Tangyi.

Otherwise, all the things will spread, causing a lot of discussion and surging emotions in Jinling City, which will only make the court more embarrassed, right?

Everyone is a pragmatic person, and in any case, at least until the soldiers and horses of the guards and pro-army in Beijing are really strengthened, this account will not be able to be spread out and settled.

"The thieves ransacked Xuzhou, I'm not sure if Chenzhou was involved, but it's a fact that Chenzhou has been eyeing Xuzhou over the years," Han Qian said, "I can hand over the three hundred thieves who retreated to Longtan Mountain to the Chenzhou camp to clear the nest, and I only need to hand over three hundred thief heads to the Chenzhou camp afterwards, but at such a sensitive moment, I don't worry about the Chenzhou camp continuing to stay in Xuzhou......"

"You mean to transfer the camp out of Chenzhou?" Shen Yang asked.

"General Zheng Hui's attack on Yongzhou, isn't the war not going well

? Put the Chenzhou camp under the banner of the Right Dragon Bird Army. Han Qian glanced at Zheng Chang and said.

Yao Xishui gritted her teeth and secretly hated, but she didn't expect Han Qian to give a big bargain directly to the Zheng family, and she couldn't stand up and say no words.

The Chenzhou battalion, which has 3,000 men and horses, can be said to be not many elite combat forces that can directly threaten Xuzhou - transfer the Chenzhou battalion away, and no longer transfer back to Chenzhou before getting Han Qian's permission, and the counties of Chenzhou only retain a small number of county soldiers to maintain local security, at least in the north and east of Xuzhou, there is no direct threat, which is naturally a favorable condition for Xuzhou.

However, Zheng Changcai didn't believe that Han Qian would be satisfied by forcing the Xi clan to hand over three hundred thief heads in addition to this, and since everyone was talking about the conditions behind closed doors, he didn't hide it, squinted his eyes and asked directly: "It's a trouble for the soldiers to be unruly, they should be given the opportunity to continue to serve Da Chu, but Hou Ye is not only satisfied with this, right?" ”

"To recover Haozhou and the central and southern regions of Huo and Shouzhou, the follow-up must not only prevent the Liang army from sending troops from Xusi to enter Haozhou, but also prepare for the war of recovering the three cities of Shouchun, Fengtai and Huoqiu, and the Tangyi camp system of the government army is only 30,000 soldiers is seriously insufficient - in any case, the depth of the defense line that Huaixi is responsible for has exceeded that of Huaidong, and the geographical advantage is not advantageous, I am preparing to enter the imperial court, and request the Tangyi army to expand to 60,000 people, and the court should allocate money, food, and salaries according to the forbidden army. At the same time, the three prefectures of Hao, Chu, and Chao have all been recovered, and the order of the assassin history, the long history, and Sima should also be established as soon as possible; At this time, Shiliang has always been under the jurisdiction of Chuzhou, and there is no longer a need for Huaidong soldiers and horses to assist in defense ......at this time," Han Qian said.

Hearing Han Qian say so many conditions in one breath, even Zheng Chang, who had the heart to help Han Qian speak after taking advantage, gasped.

The restoration of the three prefectures of Hao, Chu, and Chao is a big deal to give a few hats of the state assassin history, long history, and Sima, so that the Tangyi Xingying system and the government are officially established above the state government, and the authority is equivalent to the existence of the Jiedu embassy, which may be a fact that the imperial court has to bear and accept at this time.

However, Han Qian wanted to take back Shiliang County, but at this time, Shiliang County was under the control of Huaidong, how could they "persuade" to give up Shiliang County and share the geographical advantages of Hongzepu and Fanliang Lake with Tangyi?

Again, Han Qian asked to officially expand the Tangyi camp to 60,000 people, and asked the imperial court to double the military allocation of Tangyi again in just one year.

Han Daoming leisurely tapped his fingers on the table.

Even though Zheng Chang felt that Han Qian's conditions were a little too much, he was thinking more about how to ensure that the Chenzhou Fan Camp was smoothly under the establishment of the Right Dragon Bird Army.

Yao Xishui wanted to speak several times, but thinking that she stood up at this time and said that she was afraid that it would be more embarrassing, she could only endure it bitterly.

Shen Yang was silent for a long time before he said, "You also know that it is impossible for the imperial court to raise more money and food......

Not counting the rewards for military merits, doubling the military expenses for Tangyi means that in addition to adding 300,000 yuan of money every year, it is necessary to take out an additional 300,000 stone grains, 100,000 pieces of cloth and silk, 300,000 salt and other materials.

Now that all sides of the government and the opposition are trying in every possible way to expand the scale of the guards and pro-army, where can they squeeze out money and food?

Shen Yang said this very clearly, the other three main conditions can be agreed, but it is impossible to take out a grain of grain.

"I won't be inconsiderate of the court

difficulty, so Xuzhou was looted by thieves, and he didn't think about bothering the imperial court to send an army to clean it up," Han Qian said, "Shiliang County is not assigned to Chuzhou, even if a channel is dug between the Shiliang River and the Puyang River, the navy will not be able to enter Hongzepu to fight for a while, and it should be ...... to return to Xuzhou to recuperate for a while."

It is impossible for Han Qian to withdraw his troops from the foot of Longtan Mountain before the benefits are obtained, and the Tangyi Navy has to follow the original plan, and even transfer back to Xuzhou on a large scale - a large-scale military mobilization will affect the established production plan of Xuzhou too much, and before the matter is completely resolved, he still has to transfer some soldiers and horses from Tangyi back to Xuzhou, so that some reserve veterans can be replaced and return to production posts.

After the Huaidong soldiers and horses were withdrawn from Shiliang County, it was better to urge the Chenzhou camp to encircle and suppress Longtan Mountain and transfer it out of Chenzhou.

"Okay, let's do it for now." Shen Yang said.

"There is a night banquet arranged in the house, and I invite ......," Han Qian said politely.

"The affairs in Beijing are busy, and I am also temporarily asking for a decree to go out of Beijing, Your Majesty is still waiting for me to rush back to Jinling, Han Shangshu and Lord Zheng can stay down and have a banquet." Shen Yang didn't want to stay in East Lake for a moment, and wanted to go back to Jinling directly tonight.

"Then I won't be far away to send Master Shen." Han Qian said.

Shen Yang came in a hurry, stayed in East Lake for two days, saw Han Qian, and left in a hurry, Yao Xishui didn't want to stay and be humiliated by Han Qian, and Cao Xiushi, Zhou Qinian, Qin Wen and others also left with Shen Yang.

Han Daoming didn't say anything, Zheng Changman was thinking about the fact that the Chenzhou Fanying could be brought under the establishment of the Right Dragon Bird Army, and this matter also greatly needed Han Qian's cooperation, of course, he had to stay and talk about some more specific details.

After the war, the Tanzhou rebels retreated to Yongchen and other places, and then Miao Yong also led his troops to defect to the past, although the rebels in Yongzhou were having a hard time, but the number of soldiers and horses was a lot.

And Zheng Hui led the right dragon bird army and Chai Jian after the change of defense, and then further mastered the state soldiers of Shaoheng and Heng, the total strength is only 30,000, attacking Yong, Chen, and the two places to clear the rebels, naturally can not expect to be achieved overnight, since the autumn and winter of last year, it will be based on Wuzhiling, step by step to the south to attack the city and pull out the village, the progress is not very smooth, and there needs to be such a brave and good fighting elite soldiers and horses like Chenzhou Fanying to be transferred over as the vanguard of the siege.

Han Qian sent Yuan Guowei, Guo Rong, Feng Yi and others to accompany Han Daoming and Zheng Chang to the banquet hall first, and he, Gao Shao and Yang Qin found Lin Zongjing and Feng Yi to arrange the follow-up reinforcements to Xuzhou.

"If you really want to let go of the Wash Clan, you may not have such a good opportunity in the future?" Feng Yi asked with pity.

"Shen Yang came here in person, that is, he was determined to prevent us from annexing Chenzhou, and the Zheng family, Shouwangfu, Hunan Xuanwei Envoy, etc., would not be willing to see this; At the same time, if the alarm is too big, it is very likely that the two states of Siye will collude more closely with the big surname forces of the states in Qianzhong, and we currently do not have the spare strength to maintain most of the troops and horses in Xuzhou for a long time or use troops in Qianzhong, and it is also necessary to accept it when it is good," Han Qian said, "Besides, the Chenzhou Fan Camp is under the establishment of the Right Dragon Bird Army, and the Zheng Clan will encircle the Xi Clan, but it will inevitably make a big use of the special Fan Camp and continue to consume the Xi Clan's vital strength, and it will not make ......a big difference between annexation and annexation."

"You're using a desperate plan." Feng Yi said.

"Why do you say so ugly?" Han Qian scolded with a smile, "When you and Zong Jing return to Xuzhou, you must first ensure that the situation is under control, and be careful not to make any mistakes." ”
