Chapter 188: King Shou begs for food

July, which is almost predictable, will be difficult to protect itself in Jiangxia this autumn, let alone pay Nanyang's taxes.

In this regard, Lin Yuyan is also quite helpless, after all, manpower is difficult to win after all.

It was also in these few days that Shouwang Huanyu in the south launched another attack on the city where the Northern Wang Army was located, and saw the beacon fire from a distance across the water, and some of the refugees had fled to Jiangxia, which made Lin Yuyan also quite worried, if these refugees were not resolved, I am afraid that they would not be at peace anywhere in the future.

To add insult to injury, under the threat of the Northern King Army, Lai, Jiang, Xi and other places in the east of Jiangxia were all captured by the Northern King Army.

But the more than 10,000 people in the three counties are difficult for the current Jiangxia County Government to afford.

However, Lai, Jiang, and Xi are all from the Hanshui Zhuji, and Ji Liang regretted that he would suggest to Lin Yuyan and send several officials from Daqin and Jiangxia to Lai Jiangxi to govern the three places, at least the Northern Wangjun is still unwilling to offend Daqin.

is also the same, Lin Yuyan had to agree.

So Jiangxia's [Jiangxi County] was set up in the three places of Laijiang County, and sure enough, when the banner of Daqin was planted all over the three places of Laijiang County, the soldiers of the Northern Wangjun finally converged a little, and it was precisely because of this that the hearts of the people of Jiangxia were all attached.

In mid-July, it was already decided, Jiangxia's autumn harvest this year could only ensure Jiangxia's local rations, and it may be a little insufficient, and there was no excess at all to hand over to the Nanyang Imperial Court, or even the Jiangxia County Government.

When Lin Yuyan learned the news, he also waved his hand, and issued an edict in the name of the Jiangxia County Government, that is, Jiangxia is newly attached to Daqin, and this year's taxes will be exempted.

This edict, Lin Yuyan said simply, he could have used the reason of "Jiangxia New Annexation" to the Qin Palace, and made it clear that he would not ask Jiangxia to pay taxes this year, but Lin Yuyan thought that he still wanted a little face, after all, he took away the foundation of the foundry in Shanglin Yuan.

Helpless, Lin Yuyan had to think of another way.

In fact, Lin Yuyan had already thought of a solution a few months ago.

That is, to develop business!

There is no doubt that Nanjun this year because of the implementation of the system of Shanglin Yuan, it came in time, Ming Zifu is very senior, Nanjun affairs are all under the jurisdiction of Ming Zifu, under the monopoly of power, especially the old clan, Lin Yuyan led the division to return to Nanyang, before a wave of blood, it is precisely because of this that Nanjun will definitely have a bumper harvest this year, and the taxes collected must not be a few.

Even Lin Yuyan faintly noticed that the reason why Han Kui dared to carry out a drastic restructuring in Nanyang was that in addition to Shanglin Yuan, Nanjun was also an important hole card.

Ming Zifu is a pioneering talent, but after all, there is a trace of limitations, after all, the people take food as the sky, but in addition to food, the people also have clothing, warm housing, and transportation, in addition, there are a lot of needs, Lin Yuyan saw it, and was able to use it for himself.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Yuyan also wants to make a deal with Nanjun as much as possible, for example, there is coal in Jiangxia County, and it will take a few months after the autumn harvest to be winter, and the coal can be sold to Nanjun in exchange for grain.

There is no doubt that Jiang Xia is also sparing no effort to survive in order to live better.

It was in these days that Lin Yuyan received a letter from Nanjun, which was written by Ming Zifu himself, and only one thing was mentioned in the letter.

That is, the Shou Wang Huan Yu had already sent a messenger to ask for the "100,000 stones" of grain that Daqin promised him every year.

Lin Yuyan also shook his head mockingly: "It's really not enough to swallow an elephant......

Before Shouwang Huanyu left Xiangcheng, Lin Yuyan had already promised him the family background of the entire old clan in Xiangcheng South County, and acquiesced to him to go and search......

Soon after, Lin Yuyan also understood the current situation of Shouwang Huanyu, and with his own strength, he fought against the Northern Wang Army and the Jishan Army and Zhewang Army in the name of "persuasion", which was already lonely, even if Ma Liang, the military division under the command of King Shou, could manage it again, I am afraid it would be difficult to support the nearly 100,000 military horses of the Shouwang Army in a short time.

According to Shouwang Huanyu's reckless attack method, without a strong reserve plan, the army led by Shouwang Huanyu could only be an army that "advanced".

Although this kind of "moving forward" seems to be unstoppable, it also has its fatal flaw, that is, it cannot withstand failure, even if it is only delayed......

Lin Yuyan knew what kind of arrogant character Shouwang Huanyu was, but now he was asking Daqin for food, so he couldn't explain it, how could Shouwang Huanyu give up this face.

Unless, the situation has forced Shouwang Huanyu to bow his head.

Lin Yuyan thought of this, and naturally his mind was about to become active.

At that moment, Lin Yuyan wrote two letters, one to Ming Zifu, explaining that it was not appropriate to deny the matter, but it could be said that the matter was transferred to Jiang Xia and the matter was handled by himself.

In addition, one was brought to Shouwang Huanyu, and the letter did not mention the promise and denial of asking for food, but only mentioned one thing.

That is, the account book of the family that was looted by the Shouwang army reported by the old clan of Nanjun was transferred to Shouwang Huanyu.

The meaning of this is already unclear.

Sure enough, a few days later, Shouwang Huanyu, who was on the march, received a reply from Lin Yuyan, which was personally sent by the military advisor Ma Liang.

"Shouwang!"

Seeing that Shou Wang Huan Yu was thinking for a long time, Ma Liang couldn't help but remind.

"Huh?" Shouwang Huanyu raised his head, looked at Ma Liang, and immediately thought about it and said, "At this time, Qin Yan took this account book, isn't the meaning clear enough?!" ”

Hearing this, Ma Liang also said anxiously: "King Shou, now relying on those counties in Jingmen, it is really difficult to support an army of more than 100,000!" ”

"Do you want to withdraw the army now and let go of that villain?!" Shouwang Huan Yu's voice already had a faint trace of anger.

Ma Liang knew that Shou Wang Huan Yu had already made up his mind, and it was definitely not something he could dissuade, so Ma Liang was also anxious, but he couldn't persuade him.

After a long time, Shou Wang Huan Yu slowed down his tone and said, "Since that prince Qin Yan sent this and didn't directly refuse, you can still talk about it...... Strategist, send someone to see what the conditions for Qin's grain aid are......"
