Chapter 319: The First Meeting of the Two Heroes
Du Jia didn't know what awe was, even in the face of Song Huizong, he didn't care, let alone just the self-proclaimed Wu King Fang La, he didn't care about looking up, only to see that Fang La was about thirty-four or five years old, with big ears and dragon eyebrows, but quite rich, no wonder he had a heart of disobedience.
Fang La saw Li Tianyan and Du Jia come in and stood up and said with a smile: "Tianyan, this is the Lord of Liangshan Du Jia you said, he is really a talent, and he is so young, he is really terrifying, hehe." ”
Du Jia secretly praised in his heart, this Fang La is really a character, it stands to reason that he is now the king of Wu - although he is self-appointed, but the four and forty-two counties of the six state capitals he occupies, as well as the forty or fifty thousand horses under his command, are not fake, and now is the peak of his career, and he can still be so polite to himself, the 'small' lord of Liangshan, at least this open-mindedness is still quite extravagant.
And this person is very friendly in his words and actions, which makes people very willing to get along with him, and he has only seen this ability in Song Jiang and Chai Jin.
It is no wonder that his career broke out so quickly, and he broke out of the world in less than three years, faster than Tian Hu and Wang Qing, and from what Du Jia saw and heard on the road in the past few days, he is also a good hand in governance, his army and the local people are all together, he is also quite popular, and it is extremely difficult for the court to drive him out of here.
And the military discipline on Tian Hu's side can be seen from what Tian Leopard did, which can be seen, the people under his rule may be even more afraid of him, once there is a foreign enemy, it is difficult to say who they will support more.
This is the will of the people, although there is no role in the short term or in a small area, but all the big forces of long-term peace and stability must not be less, from this point of view, Fang La has been on the right path.
Du Jia hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "Thank you, the king, now you are here to be a thousand opportunities, and it is really our honor to be able to take the time to meet me, Xiaosheng has heard of the king's name as early as Qingzhou, and even the imperial court is extremely afraid of your army, such as facing a great enemy, it is really a model for countless heroes in my green forest." ”
Fang La also laughed, Du Jia's praise obviously made him very happy, after all, Du Jia also has the ability to 'argue', and he is from a talent background, so what he said is naturally not comparable to ordinary green forest heroes.
At this time, Li Tianyan was shocked in his heart, Fang La was already prestigious, with the rapid progress of his career in recent years, the king's spirit has become more and more obvious, don't look at him Speaking very easy-going and polite, but others will feel the pressure unconsciously, so they dare not give birth to a confrontational heart.
Even their old subordinates, who had followed Fang La from the beginning, were a little nervous when facing him now, and they didn't dare to laugh casually like before, no need to say anything else, many people couldn't even say the whole thing, this situation Li Tianyan saw too much, to be honest, he was still a little looking forward to it, and wanted to see what kind of embarrassment Du Jian, who had talked and laughed with him before, would have when facing King Wu, who knew that Du Jia was not timid, just like chatting with his friends, It seems easier than facing yourself.
Li Tianyan couldn't help but think in his heart, could it be that this Du Jia is also a natural king?
At this time, after Fang La and Du Jia said a polite word or two, Du Jia decided to get straight to the point, he already had a general understanding of Fang La's legendary temperament and personality, and it would be a waste of time to talk about it any longer, he didn't think that with his current status, Fang La could give him a lot of time.
So Du Jia coughed lightly and said: "King, although we are still meeting for the first time, but I feel that I am very close to the king at first sight, I have a plan for cooperation between the two sides, I don't know if the king is interested?" ”
Li Tianyan listened to it in a daze, this Du Jia completely talked to him as if he was equal to Fang La, if it was just the tone and posture before, now it is all-round, according to his understanding Du Jia even if he wants to cooperate with his side, he is also a subordinate or vassal to speak, and it is by no means the way it is now, he hurriedly whispered to Fang La: "King, there is the king leader of Heishui Lake to see next, please pay attention to the time." ”
However, Fang La didn't care about Du Jia's attitude at all, and after nodding to Li Tianyan to show that he knew, he asked with great interest, "Oh? I don't know what kind of cooperation Jia Shao is referring to? ”
Du Jia said calmly: "In the past few days, I have also learned some information on the itinerary of Guibaodi, now the development of all aspects of the king's side is extremely fast, Jiangnan has always been rich, this money and food is naturally not lacking, but war horses, weapons and other military materials seem to be a little stretched, I don't know if what I said is right?" ”
Fang La nodded, his expression was obviously a little more appreciative than before, the so-called obedient bosom friend, he is also a smart person, from these few words, it can be seen that Du Jia's vision and pattern are very lofty, by no means those who only know how to kill people happily, drink happily, have wine today and get drunk today, and mix a day is a day can be compared.
You must know that this large-scale military operation is not like a rebellion of hundreds of people, a shot to change places, completely dependent on the sky for food, he must have a clear goal for future development, and also in terms of equipment, supplies, logistics, funding sources and other aspects to form a stable industrial chain, all of which are indispensable, otherwise it can be done smoothly, once it encounters some risks, it will be like building a house on the beach, and it will collapse all at once.
Now the development of Fang La's business is indeed in full swing, and he has millions of people in six prefectures and forty-two counties - especially Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, and there is no shortage of food and clothing for the time being, and there is even a surplus, but Du Jia is also talking about Fang La's sore spot, that is, they have too few military supplies here, because most of the iron ore, copper mines, forging factories, weapons factories, horses, horse training farms, etc. are almost all in the north, and most of the things in their hands are still seized from the hands of officers and soldiers and warehouses at that timeand a small part of it is to buy it around.
But those quantities are fixed, and their forces have been constantly expanding, and these weapons are not once and for all, they will not be damaged forever, they must also be constantly maintained, repaired and maintained, and the current inventory is almost used, so it seems that now Fang La's team is full of soldiers and food, and the weapons and equipment are also very sophisticated, in fact, they are deliberately released to outsiders - especially Tian Hu and Wang Qing, in fact, the high-level people on Fang La's side all understand, Once a year or two has passed, there will be a big gap in armaments, and then there will be big troubles.
Early death and early reincarnation, how good it is for everyone to watch the World Cup happily together
