Chapter 474: A Fool's Strategy

The Battle of Ezhou created Jia Rudao's status as a "generation of famous ministers", he was able to control the power, and at the same time, his close comrade-in-arms Lu Wende was knighted. When people talk about merit, they all say that Lu Wende is the first, and the second is high. Jia Rudao did not deny Gundam's exploits, saying: "Gundam guarded the city of Ezhou for three months, and returned to the north." ”

After the war, the imperial court rewarded meritorious deeds, and took Gao Gao as the envoy of the Ningjiang Army and the general of the right Jin Wuwei, and gave 500,000 yuan of money, and Lu Wende gave 1 million yuan.

After the Mongol army retreated north, the Great Song Dynasty ostensibly turned the corner, but in fact, due to the continuous war, the country has fallen into an unprecedented financial crisis, in order to deal with this crisis, as the prime minister Jia Rudao took a number of measures, the "Planning Law" is one of them.

The "Planning Law" implemented by Jia Rudao was a large-scale financial audit of the foreign armies under the condition that the Mongols withdrew and the situation was temporarily eased. During the Baofu period before the implementation of the plan law, more than 20 years after the war between the Song and Mongolians, the finances of the Great Song Dynasty were on the verge of collapse...... The ministers who heard the master's plan had only more than 120 million years of income, and their income was even more than 25,000 yuan,...... It is to drink water to quench thirst...... The country uses its days to get by, and it is like Jia Yi's so-called 'great fate is about to fall, and Mo will save it'...... The exhaustion of wealth and blood is enough to kill the kingdom of men. In such a situation, Jia Rudao's "Gongtian Law" to implement the "Intention Law" can be said to be a strong measure taken to save the Great Song Dynasty, the former is to reduce expenditure, and the latter is to open source.

However, in Fan Wenhu's view, Jia Rudao's implementation of the "Planning Law" and the "Gongtian Law" is tantamount to digging his own grave.

Under Jia Yidao's "Planning Law", officials and accountants were dispatched to inspect the military expenditures of various localities, and anyone who withdrew government money and goods for military supplies during the war was punished for the crime of embezzlement and concealment. As a result, many generals were convicted for this, and Zhao Kui, Shi Yanzhi, Du Shu and other generals were dismissed and ordered to compensate. The famous general Xiang Shibi was robbed of his official position and imprisoned, forced to die, and his family was detained to pay for military supplies. Gao Da and Cao Shixiong have already been full of hatred because of their repeated teasing and ridicule of Jia Nidao, and Cao Shixiong was directly killed by Jia Nidao. And Gundam was dismissed from office because of his great merits, and his life was saved for the time being.

And one of the most fatal consequences of the "Planning Law" is Liu Quan's rebellion against the Song Dynasty and the surrender of the Yuan.

Liu Quan's surrender to the Yuan Dynasty not only made the Great Song Dynasty lose Luzhou, an important strategic area, but also played a key role in the subsequent Song and Yuan wars, according to the detailed investigation, Liu Cheng in the Yuan court to discuss the Song and war at the meeting, strongly advocated the Song Dynasty, strengthened the determination of the Yuan Emperor Kublai Khan, and dedicated the main attack on Xiangyang, training the water army, and finally became the commander of the Yuan army.

And what he Fan Wenhu is doing now is to wipe Jia Rudao's buttocks.

Thinking that Jia Yidao was probably very dissatisfied with himself now, Fan Wenhu just sneered.

Several times of aid is unfavorable, and it is not all their own fault, you must know that the opponent is a generation of famous general Liu Quan!

If there was no "Planning Law", Yu Xing didn't force Liu Cheng to rebel, wouldn't there be no such things?

Now Jia Rudao, the reason why he came to the front line to supervise the division can be said to be a desperate gamble after being cornered.

If the Yuan army's siege of Xiangfan is successfully broken this time, it will be a great merit, which can allow Jia Rudao to tide over the current crisis, but if it fails, then what awaits him, the "cricket prime minister", will be a catastrophe.

It is precisely because of this that Jia Rudao repeatedly urged Fan Wenhu to enter the army. But for rescuing Xiangfan, Fan Wenhu has his own ideas.

Now that the Yuan army is clearly "besieging the city for reinforcements", is it necessary for him to lead the last main force of the Great Song Dynasty to send people to Liu Quan?

You must know that the Yuan army, whether it is the Mongols Ashu and Ali Hague, or the Han Liu Quan and Zhang Hongfan, they are all extremely powerful generals, and they are not their opponents in any case, which has been proven in the previous battles.

Fan Wenhu's plan was to wait for Lu Wenhuan and Liu Quan to be exhausted and both defeated, and then march to defeat Liu Quan in one fell swoop to relieve the siege of Xiangyang.

At that time, no one could snatch the credit of his Fan Wenhu.

His plan was working now, he knew it.

Just a few days ago, a large number of wood chips had drifted down from the upper reaches of the Han River, most of which belonged to the Yuan warships, proving that the Yuan army's attack on Xiangfan had been fiercely counterattacked by the defenders.

After fighting at this level for a while, it is estimated that both sides will not be able to hold on, and that is where he Fan Wenhu can show his skills.

And until then, let yourself enjoy life!

Fan Wenhu picked up the jade cup again, and a Mei Ji hurriedly stepped forward to pour him full of wine, he looked at that Mei Ji with drunken eyes, and suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist and dragged her into his arms.

"Come on...... You drink it too,......" Fan Wenhu smiled and poured the wine in the glass into Mei Ji's cherry sip, Mei Ji choked and coughed, and the bright red wine poured out of her red lips from time to time, as if she was vomiting blood, showing a kind of hurt beauty.

"The golden bottle of wine is the blood of thousands of people, the jade plate is delicacies and the surname is anointed, the people are in tears when the candles fall, and the songs are high and the complaints are high." A sweet and pleasant female voice suddenly sounded, startling Fan Wenhu.

Fan Wenhu stopped suddenly, and Na Meiji took the opportunity to break free from Fan Wenhu's embrace and ran behind the screen.

Fan Wenhu didn't pay attention to the beautiful girl, but searched for the direction from which the voice came from, and at this time, the kabuki in the audience also stopped their music and dance, and the hall instantly fell silent.

But Fan Wenhu watched it for a long time, but he didn't find out who was reading the poem that satirized him.

"Who is so bold! Dare to do anti-poetry and ridicule Ben Shuai? Fan Wenhu was a little panicked in his heart, but his face was full of expression, "Someone!" Take it for Ben Shuai! ”

When the voice just sounded, Fan Wenhu's guards began to look for him, but they only heard his voice, but they didn't see him, and they were suspicious.

"It turns out that General Fan will only compete with women." The woman's voice sounded again, with an indescribable sneer.

Fan Wenhu felt that the female voice was so close to him, and he was horrified in his heart, and suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist, and when he saw him draw the sword, the woman laughed, and then he saw that there was a water-like figure shaking next to the Ding furnace not far away.

"There it is!" Fan Wenhu didn't dare to step forward, but pointed with his sword, and immediately two guards rushed over and slashed at the water shadow, but when they saw the blade of the knife swept through the water shadow, it was empty, and the two guards slashed into the air, and with too much force, they fell down all at once.
