Chapter 45: The Black Hand of the Bu Family (1)

"Head of the house...... Woo woo....... you want to avenge us...... The brothers died so miserably....... Guan Yi of Xishu is a water bandit! ”

Dongwu, Jingzhou, Yidu County, Xiling County. The governor of Xiling was stationed in the festival.

Like the Shu Han, in order to strengthen the rule and promote the economic development of remote areas and mountainous areas. Jingzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou, which were under the jurisdiction of Eastern Wu, were also divided into more counties on the basis of the Eastern Han Dynasty. For example, in the past, the southern county of Jingzhou was divided into three in this era: Jianping County, Yidu County, and Nanjun.

Jianping County, including Wushan County in present-day Chongqing, Badong, Zigui, Lichuan, Enshi in Hubei, etc. This is a mountainous area where Daba Mountain and Wuling Mountain meet. Eastern Wu had very little military power here, and he was actually a buffer between Eastern Wu and Shu Han - Liu Bei attacked Wu in 222 AD, and Eastern Wu lost this area with little resistance.

And Yidu County, which is separated from Nanjun, is different. Xiling City within its territory is today's Yichang. And those who are familiar with geography know: Yichang is the outlet of the Three Gorges. As soon as the Yangtze River passes Yichang, the surface of the river will expand several times, and its water flow will slow down significantly. Therefore, for the Eastern Wu regime that did not control the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Xiling was a must-defend place - whether it was against Shu Han or Cao Wei, in order to prevent the enemy from descending down the river, Xiling was the most important strategic point - or Liu Bei's attack on Wu in 222 AD, where Eastern Wu put up stubborn resistance to Liu Bei. Because this place can't be lost, once lost, the back door will be wide open.

(Xiling is Yiling, which was changed by Eastern Wu after the Battle of Yiling.) )

Therefore, Dongwu set up a heavy army here and set up the Xiling Governor. And the current governor of Xiling is Buxie, the eldest son of Buqi.

Because it guards the throat of the Yangtze River waterway, the goods of the Mijia firm must pass through Xiling. After the production of various outputs in Fuling County gradually increased, Mi Zhao naturally wanted to sell these things to Soochow and Cao Wei, which had a better economic base. And Xiling is the first place to sell.

At that time, Buqi was worshiped by Sun Quan as the governor of Xiling because of his meritorious service in suppressing the Jiaozhou rebellion. He has been in this position for 20 years. In the past 20 years, Buqi gave full play to his methods of governing the country, and slowly transferred the political and economic center of Jingzhou from Jiangling to Xiling. By the time he took over as Lu Xun's prime minister, Xiling had already been made into a fief of the Bu family. When Buqi died, the Dongwu royal family had to appoint Buqi's eldest son to take over as the governor of Xiling - the others couldn't sit still!

Now, the various industries in Xiling City are small in scale and nothing, and the scale is slightly larger, if there is no protection or equity participation of the step family, it will not be possible. Therefore, when Yanxi lacquer, Jingyao wax, soap, and fruit wine were listed in Xiling, they quickly attracted the attention of the Bu family.

Now the official face of the Bu family is Bu Xie, the eldest son of Bu Qi, and this master is not specifically involved in the business affairs of his family. In charge of the economy of the step family, it is the second son of the step of the step. If the eldest son of the Bu family, Bu Xie, is still a more reliable son-in-law. Then this master can be said to be a collection of all the negative factors: selfishness, shamelessness, greed, stupidity.

On the basis of history, after the death of the Bu Xie. Bu Yan bribed the Eastern Wu royal family and court ministers, and snatched the position of Xiling Governor from his nephew. When Sun Hao, the emperor of Eastern Wu, succeeded to the throne and wanted to strengthen the centralization of power and take back control of Xiling. He also sent his brother's two sons as hostages to the Western Jin Dynasty and surrendered to the Western Jin Dynasty - but his own sons were reluctant to send them away.

(Sun Hao's strengthening of centralized power is one thing, and more importantly, it involves the party struggle in Nanlu.) I'll cover this in more detail in the following chapters. )

When Sun Hao sent Lu Kang to crusade against him, it was clear that the rescue troops of the Western Jin Dynasty outside Xiling City were already visible, and he just didn't dare to open the city gate and rush out to attack Lu Kang on both sides. As a result, the Western Jin army was defeated by Lu Kang and retreated, and his Xiling City was later breached. He, a son of the Bu family, was wiped out by Lu Kang according to Sun Hao's order - he had already sent his son to the Western Jin Dynasty as a hostage......

Therefore, after seeing the good things such as soap and Jingyao wax shipped by the Mi family's business. Of course, I can't wait to take possession. After a little inquiry, Bu Er Ye sent his house slave to Guan Yi to ask for production technology, and the price he offered was: 100,000 yuan! And it's not the five-baht money used by Shu Han and Cao Wei, but the big spring that the ghosts of Dongwu don't use!

What does it mean to be a thousand in the spring? Well, this copper coin is slightly larger than the Han five baht, and then Sun Quan wrote four words on it: Daquan dangqian - all show me good! This is a lot of money, a thousand and five baht coins each!

This TM is not much different from the later generations of the Guo Party printing money to grab money. Of course, its practical application effect is also extremely poor: not to mention the Wei and Han dynasties, even the common people of Soochow themselves do not buy it at all.

(Of course, in terms of printing money and grabbing money, Liu Bei and Sun Quan's eldest brother don't talk about the second brother.) Sun Quan has engaged in Daquan as a thousand, and Liu Bei has also engaged in a hundred and five baht, worth five hundred and five baht, etc. The currency system of Shu Han did not gradually return to normal until after Zhuge Liang came to power. )

There is no doubt that Guan Yi and his colleagues simply and neatly rejected the representatives of the Bu family. But what is good or not is that the Bu family has been the emperor of the soil in Xiling City for a full thirty years, not to mention the master of the Bu family, the domestic slaves of the Bu family are also rampant and domineering. So when Guan Yi refused, the representative of the Bu family actually spoke ill of him, which made Guan Yi and the others move to kill - this group of sons and brothers don't look at the current people like dogs, with an expression of worrying about the country and the people. But they used to be squirrel. Well, sometimes it's really impulsive to do things.

But Zhang Zun, who disguised himself as a bandit to kill people, made a fatal mistake: he was born in CD and grew up in CD. There is still a lack of understanding of the skills of the residents on both sides of the Yangtze River: among the representatives of the Bu family, one is from the Xiling Water Army, and being good at swimming is one thing, and the key is that he is good at holding his breath in the water. At that time, when Zhang Zun led the team to kill, he quickly dived into the water after being slashed, and held his breath for half a pillar of incense - in Zhang Zun's opinion, if he didn't float up for so long, he must have drowned, so he let him go.

"The head of the house, you can't be wrong. Those water bandits must be the people of Fuling Taishoufu. The water bandit who took the lead, when Brother Bu Shao took us to the Taishou Mansion in Fuling, I saw it in the Taishou Mansion. Because this man's skin is like black charcoal, and his head is ringed with eyes, and his face is full of beard. It's so impressive, the slave just looks at it and remembers it. ”

"Humph! Say no more. looks so honorable, that guy must be Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide's grandson Zhang Zun! All right! The little thief in Xishu actually dared to do something to the people of my big Wu Bu family, he was really impatient! ”

Bu Xi got up angrily, walked to the wall on the side and looked at the map for a long time: "Bu Tong, you go to our manor in Wuling, transfer 100,000 stone grain and 1,000 soldiers, master, I want those thieves in Xishu to look good!" ”

"Uh, the head of the family, do you want to talk to the eldest master about this matter first?"

"Bang dang!" A teacup had already slammed into Butong's head: "Bastard! Everything has to be agreed by the eldest brother, so what am I, master? What am I? Am I not the head of the step family? ”

"The head of the house is angry, and the head of the house is angry. The slave and maid will do it, and this will do it. ”

Just as mentioned earlier, Nanjun was divided into three, and the current Wuling County in Eastern Wu is not as vast as Wuling County in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The so-called four counties of Jingnan: Wuling County, Changsha County, Lingling County, and Guiyang County. In this era, it has become the seven counties of Jingnan. Among them, Wuling County was split into two: the more economically developed places in the east were split out to form a new Hengyang County. The place in the west, which is dominated by the Wuling Mountains, is still called Wuling County.

This place belongs to the chicken ribs for Soochow. Because like Fuling County in Shu Han, it is also a concentration of Wuling Mountains and karst terrain. There are few Han people, the output is very small, and there are many kinds of Wuxi barbarian villages.

And the idea of the second master of Bu Xianbu is: to use a thousand private soldiers as the backbone, use a large amount of grain to attract Wuxi barbarians to defect, and then cross the Wuling Mountains and sneak attack Fuling County!

Now the second master is still young, and while doing things recklessly, he is ruthless everywhere!
