Chapter 3230: A Controversy Over the Harvest

The Japanese soldiers jumped like flying, ran very fast, and in the blink of an eye they rushed to a distance of ten steps from the elephant, and spread out to surround the war elephant, but then, the reaction of the Cham soldiers stunned them---- those soldiers threw their weapons away, and ran away, and the speed was quite fast.

Seeing them running, the student who asked Zhao Xing just now was very puzzled, and hurriedly sought confirmation from his companion: "Am I not mistaken? The teacher said they weren't good at running, but I thought they were faster than rabbits. ”

The rest of the matter was like an armed parade, and Zhao Xing's team was repaired and returned to the road. On the road, he encountered several groups of Cham village soldiers in a row, they always stood far away, shouting at this group, occasionally shooting a few arrows with a bamboo bow, Zhao Xing just opened the formation here, and before he could charge, he could not find the enemy.

The depressed Zhao Xing finally rushed to the city of Bintong City at sunset, and the thing that made him even more depressed came, Chen Buqun led a group of naval officers to greet Zhao Xing with high spirits, he patted his stomach and said: "Teacher, now I can grab your lead." I had only two rounds of shelling in the early morning of the next day, and the people of the city had already come and surrendered......

But why did the teacher send away all the groups of people I sent to meet him? I have occupied this city for three days, and I have been waiting for the teacher to come, and I have sent several groups of people to wait on that path, but they have all been beaten back by the teacher, saying that you are very vicious, and no one will be allowed to talk or greet you. Zhao Xing glanced at Bintong City sullenly, changed the topic and asked, "Why is this city so intact...... You said you fired two rounds of cannons? ”

Chen Buqun nodded: "Teacher, I will carry out the artillery advance according to your words...... Uh-huh, barrage Xu Jin. My first round of artillery only cleared the docks, and the second round of artillery extended to the bottom of the city, and the white flag was already erected on the top of the city, and then their lord came out...... This kid reacts so quickly that I'm embarrassed to do it. ”

Zhao Xing was depressed, he waved his hand irritably, and let his soldiers enter the city. These elite infantry had gone through a difficult trek on the road, and had lost more than one percent, and now the battle was over, and halfway through, their only battle was when Zhao Xing threw a grenade into the water, killing countless piranhas.

After entering the City Lord's Mansion, Zhao Xing asked Chen Buqun: "Have you counted it, how is the harvest?" ”

Chen Buqun replied: "To be honest, that's right. People here really have the custom of collecting gold and gold objects...... But let me see, their greatest treasure is still in the temples, and the statues in the temples are all pasted with gold, which is splendid, and people are greedy to see...... The local lord of the city is a prince of Zhancheng, he has been the king of Bintong for 300 years, and there are a lot of gold, silver and jewelry in the palace, but he surrendered too coolly. \\\\\\ so much that I was embarrassed to just turn my face and grab it. ”

Zhao Xing shook his head: "I'm embarrassed, I have to rob ---- didn't you ask me before leaving." Are you worried that there will be dissent in the court? I tell you: send this prince on the ship at once, and then send all the royal families in the city to the ship, and let them go to Bianliang in person, and explain to Your Majesty why His Majesty in the palace of Song Shang --- who has frequently attacked us is a child, who is in the period of youthful rebellion, and he is so happy. The treasure in the palace of Bintong is the magic weapon that makes His Majesty close his eyes. His property is to shut up the courtiers......

Hurry up, I'm not here to see the scenery, I'm here to help Bintong Wang rectify the vulgar style---- right, it's a good word. Hurry up and put away all those vulgar gold, gold, antiques, and precious stones...... Whatever you think is vulgar, take it on my ship and keep it with me. I'm worried that the Bintong people will retain some vulgar things and develop a culture of extravagance and flashiness, which will lead to the destruction of the country. For their sake, I'm reluctant to keep these vulgar things, and I don't charge them for keeping them! ”

Chen Buqun grinned and replied with a grin: "I knew that the teacher could find an excuse...... I'm going to do it, and the boys are screaming in a hurry. Well, now I also think that Bintong people have too many vulgar things, for justice, for Nanyang. In order to...... It doesn't matter what reason he is for. Let's grab it! ”

In the blink of an eye, Chen Buqun ran away and disappeared. Zhao Xing ordered behind him. Ask all the royal families in Bintong City to meet at the palace and wait to meet Zhao Xing. After these people rushed to the palace, Zhao Xing did not see them for a long time. The navy unloaded a few small cannons from the ship and blocked these people in the palace square, and then Zhao Xing's soldiers began to act, they began to raid the royal property from house to house, but deliberately did not commit any crime against the common people.

At the same time, in the north, Vietnam broke through the Qingshui Pass of the Champong state at any cost and began to besiege Indra Bura, the capital of the Champong state. There will be no one to rescue Bintong City, which also means that the destruction of the city is imminent.

That night, the royal family of Bintong City was sent to the ship, and then the raid on the royal mansions lasted for ten days. Afterwards, he also intercepted thirty percent of the treasure, crossed it off the list, and divided it privately with Chen Buqun and Shuai Fan--- just like that, the registered gold treasures checked out by the entire Bintong City were still worth 130 million yuan. ****

"Too little, too little!" Zhao Xing looked at the mountains of treasures with regret on his face, and said unwillingly: "Wang Du is a big piece of fat meat, we gave the fat meat to the Vietnamese, it's a pity......

In the original history, the Champa then fought a two-hundred-year war with Vietnam, which eventually exhausted the thousand-year-old accumulation of the Champa state, and led to their demise in the last years of the Southern Song Dynasty. But in this way, after Vietnam exterminated the Champa state, it still plundered the treasures from the Champa state worth more than the 15th year of the Great Song Dynasty. At that time, the taxes of the Great Song Dynasty were about 100 million and 30 million yuan.

Chen Buqun's eyes were red at this time, which was stimulated by the huge treasure, and he strongly instigated: "Teachers often say that there are no eternal friends and no eternal covenants between countries, and there is no eternal covenant, it is purely a collusion of interests. Vietnam is now attacking the royal city of Indra for a long time, and if it is not down, it is better for us to help in the past. ”

Shuai Fan, who followed behind, was also fanning the flames: "My lord stays here to sit in the town, and I will take the soldiers to go by sea and use cannons to blast open the walls of the royal city...... I saw it, what is this called the city wall, it's just some bamboo mats wrapped in soil, and a few ** cannons will definitely be able to blast open this soil fence. ”

Zhao Xing shook his head: "I'll go in person." Dealing with the Dayue people, it is more appropriate for me to come forward, here, you are in command. Strive to transfer things back to Bianliang as soon as possible, and block the mouths of those officials in the capital...... By the way, where is that chick in the Li family? ”

Shuai Fan stayed in Dongmutou City at that time to supervise the development of the situation in Dongmutou City, and Li Qingzhao also stayed in the safe rear with Shuai Fan. After the Bintong City was broken, the two of them rushed over.

Shuai Fan admired the little girl's cleverness, he pointed to the back of the palace and replied, "She is in the royal treasury." It is said that she planned to take inventory of Bintong Wang's treasury, saying that many Han and Tang relics were found there, and she planned to play with it. ”

Zhao Xing clapped his hands and laughed: "Tell her, just take whatever you like, it's not my thing anyway, I don't feel distressed." ”

After Zhao Xing finished speaking, he pointed to his feet and said, "Hurry up and ship out this batch of goods." Soon there will be 100 ships carrying lime from Guangzhou. I've ordered a hundred boatloads of lime, and you'll help me tear down this earthen city and build a stone city...... The people of Bintong City are not the people of my land, and I do not feel sorry for them---- so I will levy them to do labor and build me a stone city, and the craftsmen will hire the stonemasons of Zhenla nearby. Pay with the money of the king of Bingtong.

I plan to change the name of this place to Cam Ranh City, and the small bay in front of the city will be called Cam Ranh Bay in the future. ^^.Com first released ^^ for the rest of the rest of the matter, I told the Vietnamese, you just have to build a city here. It is necessary to build the city as impregnable.

Immediately notify Dongmutou City and tell the Song merchants of Dongmutou City that I plan to reward them with land and ask them all to come over. Horse staking near the city, I will reward them as much land as they can occupy. Don't be stingy with the soldiers, let them take as much as they can. However, because of the limited space on the big ship, it was agreed with them: those who had contributed to the battle were allowed to board the ship with twice their weight; Those who have no merit are allowed to take twice their weight of goods......"

Shuai Fan only rubbed his hands excitedly, Zhao Xing wanted to demolish the city, which meant that the entire Bintong building did not need to be preserved. Well. It seems that Zhao Xing had used to show off the "roasted horse legs of the roasted beams of Helan Yuanfuzun" before. This time, Shuai Fan ran slower, and all the good things were counted. Now Zhao Xing wants to demolish the city. In this way, can I tear down the beams of the Bin Tong King, take them home and set them on my own house, and show off for the rest of my life......

After discussing a few words with Zhao Xing, Shuai Fan was already absent-minded......

A few days later, Zhao Xing summoned 3,000 local soldiers from Bintong City, and he rushed to Indra Buluo City with 2,000 Song soldiers. His arrival immediately exacerbated the tragedy of the siege of the royal capital, the original Vietnamese and Bin Tong fighting, always worried that the casualties would be too large, so that others would be burned and robbed, so the intensity of the war was always controlled within an acceptable range, but now with the help of the Great Song Dynasty, it was different, and they had all their family resources.

Under the bombardment of artillery, the king of Champa fell, and then the Song soldiers and Vietnamese soldiers rushed into the city and began a great robbery.

This is a robbery game, who would have thought that decades ago, the Song soldiers exchanged fire with Jiaozhi in order to rescue the Cham Po, and the two sides fought inextricably. But then, the Cham country took advantage of the gratitude, Jiaozhi groveled and slowly recovered the lost land, and today this year, the Song soldiers actually joined forces with Jiaozhi to attack the capital of the king of Zhancheng.

Robbing things, Zhao Xing's hands and feet have always been fast, and his soldiers have robbed once in Bintong, and they have already formed a theoretical, systematic, and standardized robbery process. The soldiers who entered the city in the early stage immediately occupied the palace, but the Vietnamese were familiar with the terrain and immediately took over the treasury of the city. Subsequently, more Vietnamese soldiers poured into the city and began to plunder the city......

Li Yuan, an acquaintance of the commander of the Vietnamese army, rushed into the palace angrily, met the happy Zhao Xing on the steps of the palace, and asked: "Brother Zhao, what do you mean?" It's useless if you want it, what are you doing with the palace? ”

Zhao Xing nodded with a smile and agreed: "That's right, it's useless for me to ask for the king of Zhancheng, I'll take it back, and the court won't be able to explain it---- give it to you, and the royal family of Zhancheng will give it to you, regardless of men, women, and children." ^^.Com debuts ^^ But the property in the palace cannot be sent, this is the spoils of the children...... In addition, the soldiers worked hard to capture the king of the city, and they couldn't let the children hand over the king for nothing---- you have to pay a hard fee! ”

Li Yuan looked at the palace and said fiercely: "Brother Zhao, Lord Zhao, seventy percent of the wealth of the city is in the palace, you are now dominating the palace, do you want to swallow that treasure alone, but what should I do with the Great Yue Kingdom?" Did we fight for nothing?

Do you know how many people we died before the Qingshui Pass? Fifty thousand! My Dayue Kingdom is not the Great Song Dynasty, and there are not so many people who are good to die. Fifty thousand, you must let me give an account to the people. ”

Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "That's right, you died 50,000 people under Qingshui Pass, but if it weren't for me, would you dare to enter their royal capital after you died 50,000 people?" No me. Can you break through their king's city? Champa and Jiaozhi are enemies for a hundred years, you will fight a war, the land in the north of Champa will be yours, I will grab some money to spend, what is it? You guy, why are you so small, so boring! ”

Li Yuan took a few breaths and asked, "What price do I need to pay?" Are you willing to give up? ”

Zhao Xing pointed to the south and replied, "South of Bintong City!" ”

Li Yuan jumped up suddenly: "Brother Zhao, I now find out that you are the biggest enemy in the battle of Zhancheng, and I will work harder and harder, and the spoils of war ...... Your appetite is too great, Bintong's land is not connected to the Great Song Dynasty. You're going. Do what? ”

Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "Give my son ---- son of Chen Yiyi, how can he be crowned a king?" I guess that in the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that I will not care about this overseas enclave, so I will give it to my son. You Dayue made my youngest son king, and then sent a princess. It was agreed that they would get married when they grew up. And the south of Bintong City was given to my son, and I will run it and pay taxes according to the regulations. What do you think? ”

Li Yuan smiled: "Brother Zhao's condition is not harsh, but I heard that the child of Yiyi is only two years old, is Brother Zhao going to immigrate to my Dayue, then I welcome it...... Well, I heard that the Celestial Empire party is fighting fiercely. It has come to this point that even Lord Zhao is considering escaping?! ”

Zhao Xing shook his head: "I don't plan to manage Bintong personally. In the past few years, I have trained some students and children, and I am planning to let them practice management methods, so I will let them come to this land to practice their skills, and by the way, accumulate experience in government affairs. When my son grows up, he will come and get married---- you call him a vassal, yes.

But. Will my son live on this land in the future? I can't guarantee it, either, but even if he doesn't live on that land. Thou shalt not meddle in the affairs of the boys, for the officials there are appointed by me, and all power rests with me. I can promise to pay you taxes and recognize your suzerainty. ”

Li Yuan also sat down happily and bargained: "All the property in the palace will be divided into half of me...... Bintong officials can be appointed by you, but they must report to our king. ”

Zhao Xing replied: "Divide your Yicheng, this is the land you picked up for nothing, Yicheng is already good...... I will only report to you for the appointment of officials south of Bintong City, and you must recognize them one by one without your approval. ”

Li Yuan replied: "Forty into five...... Whoever will inherit that inheritance after your son must be approved by my Dayue royal family, this is our suzerainty, and you must respect it. ”

Zhao Xing replied: "Sancheng, don't pull it down...... The succession to the throne can be with your consent, but you do not have the right to garrison there, and the Bintong army must be my private army, which is managed by us and raised by us. ”

Li Yuan patted his thigh and said with a smile: "Okay, three achievements are three...... But the annual tax amount, we have to go through verification, and the tax that should be paid cannot be less! ”

Zhao Xing rolled his eyes: "Now I am only willing to pay 20%, otherwise you give me a fixed tax amount, which will be adjusted every fifty years." ”

"No way!" Li Yuan jumped up and said angrily: "How can there be such a thing......

Zhao Xing raised a fist the size of a garlic mortar, blew demonstratively, interrupted the other party's words, and said slowly: "Since ancient times, I have never heard that the land of the feudal king has to pay taxes normally, I promise you this, of course, it is an abnormal tax payment, it was originally for you to embody the suzerainty, you don't have to inch in." ”

Li Yuan stomped his feet a few times in place, and asked angrily, "How much tax do you plan to pay?" ”

Zhao Xing stretched out a finger, Li Yuan's eyes widened, his face was full of disbelief, Zhao Xing said honestly: "Ten thousand!" ”

"Deal!" Li Yuan replied very happily, he stretched out his hand and shook Zhao Xing, and then replied sincerely: "Originally, you only need to pay a copper plate to pay taxes, and I am willing." ”

Zhao Xing replied sincerely: "Originally, I stretched out a finger and wanted to say a million times, but looking at your expression, I sincerely want to be angry with you." ”

Li Yuan smiled like a flower on his face, and he held Zhao Xing's hand and shook it again and again: "Fifty years will not change!" ”

"Fifty years the same!" Zhao Xing replied categorically.

Li Yuan proudly beckoned a team of 100 people to come in and take over the royal family of Zhancheng in the palace, he didn't care about these clean and slick and plain-faced royal families, as if he didn't see Zhao Xing's search for them, and even the king of Zhancheng didn't ask about his whereabouts, and directly ordered: "Drag it out and behead it!" Not a single one to stay! ”

Zhao Xing watched with a smile as Li Yuan dragged the Zhancheng royal family out, and backhanded. He took out the seal of the king of Champa from his sleeve and raised it with his left hand, beckoned the people behind him to watch, and ordered: "Now, order the soldiers to enter the royal treasury in batches, and tell them that they are only allowed to carry it once, and let them carry it as long as they can hold it." No matter how much they take out of the king's treasury, they count it as their own. They were ordered to label their own things and pile them up in the palace square.

Tell them that I will send someone to watch over their things, and since they have enough, they will do something for me, and carry me to the docks, and carry all the things in the royal treasury to the docks. Shipment to Cam Ranh ...... That's right. The five thousand child soldiers were also counted, and they were allowed to enjoy the same treatment, and they were allowed to enter the royal treasury and take as many things as they wanted. Tell them that the first trip is to move the ground for them......"

Li Yuan flashed quickly. When he left, he didn't ask Zhao Xing how to deal with the Great Song Dynasty, and after dealing with the royal family of Zhancheng, he was busy taking over the official office of the Zhancheng State, and Zhao Xing was busy with the big transfer here......

Just when he was in a hurry to carry the treasury of Zhancheng, the king of Bingtong in Zhancheng had been escorted to Bianliang. Zhao Xing told the reason why he escorted Bintong Wang into Beijing, and he found more than a dozen merchants to testify that Bintong Wang accommodated pirates and connived at pirates to rob Song merchants. even "robbed Zhao Xingdi".

In the recital, Zhao Xing made a reckless demeanor, saying that he was anxious because of the decline in the trading volume of the market, so he frequently went to sea to patrol, and as a result, he was attacked by pirates on the sea.

Zhao Xing is a cannon temper, everyone knows this, and the solution who escorted the four bachelors of Sumen back to the ministry has already complained everywhere. So Zhao Xing's violent temper couldn't bear it. Rose up and fought back. And chased the pirates into Bintong City---- which everyone can understand, what everyone doesn't understand. Zhao Xing violently captured Bintong City, captured King Bintong, and escorted King Bintong to Beijing, demanding that he personally apologize to His Majesty.

That night, the imperial historians hurriedly prepared materials to attack Zhao Xing's practice of "convincing people with strength and not paying attention to benevolence and righteousness", but then the news came that made them collectively speechless---- Zhao Xing reported: He broke through the palace of Bintong Wang, and looted about 160 million pieces of wealth, and was loading and shipping these riches to Bianliang, preparing to use the money as an apology from Bintong King to the Great Song Dynasty.

160 million guan, not a consistent six.

In the case of the Great Song Dynasty's finances being stretched and the Quartet frequently reporting on the famine, this windfall, which was equivalent to two years of fiscal and tax revenue in the Great Song Dynasty, made the officials not know what to do.

The entire Great Song Dynasty was falling into collective aphasia, and Zhao Xing's first ship of goods arrived, all of which were gold, inlaid with gems whose names were unknown, full of boats, weighing several tons. This boat of gold objects stopped at the wharf of Xiangguo Temple, unloaded for three days in a row, and the carriage to the palace carrying place ran endlessly for three days, some small gold objects fell from the carriage, and the soldiers who transported it even disdained to bend down, which made the people of the capital pick up a bargain.

Subsequently, a large amount of treasure arrived, including gold and silver, and a large number of treasures of the South Seas that cannot be described: rhinoceros horn cups are counted by pounds, coral branches are counted by baskets, pearls are discussed by cars, and ivory are discussed by ships......

For the Nanyang battle, Zhao Xing only has four words to evaluate: people are stupid, there is a lot of money!

The entire Great Song Dynasty was shocked by this wealth, and then, the Jiaozhi State went to the seal, claiming that he had heard that the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty suffered from unfair land, so they raised troops to help the Great Song Dynasty retaliate, and now they have broken through the capital of the Zhancheng State, killed the entire Zhancheng royal family, and destroyed the Zhancheng State......

In the recital, Vietnam humbly said: I heard that the Song army captured Bintong City, so the soldiers and horses of the Great Viet Kingdom stopped at the north of Bintong City, and were willing to dedicate the land south of Bintong City to the Great Song Dynasty and let the Great Song Dynasty take over.

The Vietnamese king's move immediately caused an uproar at the imperial court.

Zhancheng has been destroyed, and King Bintong no longer has any identity, so the Great Song Dynasty does not need to care about benevolence, righteousness and morality, of course, the treasures looted by Zhao Xing can be used as war compensation, and the rest is how to maintain the face of the imperial court.

At this point, war reparations, the word entered the Great Song Dynasty for the first time.

In the court, some people also proposed that the Dayue Kingdom had captured the entire Zhancheng State, which would make its power soar, and the imperial court might not be able to contain it in the future, but this argument was immediately drowned in a controversy, and there was not even a splash.

The place of controversy in the imperial court now is: What should the Dayue Kingdom do if it dedicates the land south of the city of Bintong?
