Chao Gai is angry, so he immediately agreed to Song Jiang's request, Song Jiang has been feeling more and more alienated from everyone in the cottage these days, watching everyone see that they can hide, but they can't hide and leave with a hasty hello.

Song Jiang was in a state of confusion for two days, his younger brother Song Qing and his old father came to Liangshan with their families, and several people hugged and cried again, Chao Gai and others held a reception banquet for everyone, and then the Song family settled down completely in a low-key manner.

When all this news was delivered to Zhang San, Zhang San smiled slightly, this kind of pleasure of playing with others between applause is still good, isn't Song Jiang a cow? Isn't it famous? Isn't there a good man everywhere he goes?

Hehe, I see you still wavering now, recruiting heroes, and licking Zhao Ji's **, if you can get up so far, let you be the protagonist of Lao Tzu! Zhang San put aside Song Jiang's affairs first, not to mention the current Song Jiang, even the full-level version of Song Jiang, Zhang San may not be in his eyes.

So now Zhang San's focus is on the Ryukyu feudal affairs operated by Tong Guan and others, these people are still very experienced in this set of things, first the court Shanghubu Shilang released a rumor, saying that the treasury is spending a lot of money, and it has reached the point where Yin eats grain, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that the wages will be released at the end of the year.

Then there are other people who mentioned that the Ryukyu Kingdom banned the ships of the Great Song Dynasty from going to sea to trade, and now the shipping department of the Great Song City is basically paralyzed, and the sea trade tax revenue, which originally accounted for more than 50% of the Great Song Dynasty, is basically zero, so that there is no need for the enemy to fight the officers and soldiers in various places will run out of food, and so on.

For most officials, they only know that the Great Song Dynasty is fighting with Western Xia and Ryukyu, but it is natural to win the war, and if they lose, they will blame those generals for their ineffective fighting, and they have nothing to do with them at all.

But now the situation is different, I don't know if this battle is won or not, but everyone understands it, if it continues, its salary will be lost, and how many brains can get mixed with Beijing officials?

Beijing officials don't understand the economy, but everyone also knows a truth, you give money to the soldiers, and the soldiers will fight for you, once you don't give money, the soldiers may beat you, the concept of this era is to be a soldier to eat food, not for the country and the people in later generations.

So everyone suddenly cared about the war on the front line, the Western Xia was okay, the New Year's sneak attack was successful, and now a few more cities have been defeated, although both sides are anxious, everything is still under control.

And the Ryukyu War is different, although it took a lot of hard work to defeat Yangzhou, but the loss of more than 300,000 officers and soldiers before and after, this casualty figure is still concealed, and the Ryukyu still occupy three or five big cities like Yangzhou, if all of them are like Yangzhou, then all the soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty will be defeated?

Therefore, the kind of shouting and shouting and killing in the past in public opinion has now become whether the Great Song Dynasty can win? How much do you lose if you win? Whether it is cost-effective or not, and among these forbidden troops, there are 200,000 transferred from the capital alone.

It is the first time that many people know that so many people have died in Yangzhou, and the 200,000 forbidden troops have families? Since the Great Song Dynasty was strong and weak, the forbidden army was stationed in the capital, and many people settled in the capital, so that 200,000 families were worried about the safety of their families.

Now the Great Song Dynasty is not the same as before, communication is inconvenient, everyone can only wait until the end of the war to get the information of their families, now all kinds of dart games are all over the city and countryside, many people in order to prevent their families from worrying will send a letter back regularly, so now people who have not received a letter from home must be worried.

Don't underestimate the power of these low-level working people, although they have no right to speak in the court, they can guide the people's hearts and guide public opinion, and it can also be said that they are the people's hearts and public opinions.

The capital of the Great Song Dynasty is known as one million, plus the families of various forbidden soldiers live in various parts of the city and countryside, there are three to five million people in the entire Gyeonggi area, and there is no problem with more than one million households, and now one-fifth of the people have no men in their families, what kind of scene is this?

Therefore, not only did the wind change immediately in the court, but everyone began to urgently want to get more details about the war with the Ryukyus, and then Tong Guan appropriately threw out some of the details of the siege battle, these war processes, Tong Guan's strategy is still not a big problem, so he is not afraid of being exposed.

After that, Tong Guan asked the imperial court to continue to increase troops, because Zhenjiang opposite Yangzhou was still in the hands of the Ryukyus, and in order to completely open up the canal, Zhenjiang must go south quickly, and this time Tong Guan directly requested an increase of 400,000 troops.

Then the following things are embarrassing, the first is that there are no soldiers, the second is that no one wants to go, Yangzhou is still in Jiangbei, and the Great Song Dynasty does not need to cross the river to cross the river, and then it will be like this bear.

Zhenjiang is on the south bank of the Yangtze River, it is said that the Yangtze River from Jianye to the east is now controlled by Ryukyu ships, and the Great Song Dynasty sailors fought with each other, but they did not win a battle, not even a single ship of the enemy has been robbed, and not a single ship has been sunk.

Therefore, if you fight in Zhenjiang, then you may be cut off at any time, and you may be surrounded on all sides at any time, and people's boats are too powerful, I heard that they are twice as fast as the ships of the Great Song Dynasty sailors, and the Great Song Dynasty now has no decent sailors.

Although the imperial court was also working hard to build ships, almost all the shipyards along the coast were destroyed, and once they built ships on the coast, they would inevitably be harassed by the Ryukyus, and the shipyards in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, not to mention whether they had experience in building ships at sea, were not as good in quality and quantity as those on the coast.

And there is basically no decent dock in the Yangtze River that can build a big ship, so if you want to build a ship, you have to dig the dock again, dig the dock and complete the materials, then wait for the ship to be built, it will be eight months or a year later.

Of course, everyone will not doubt whether the Great Song Dynasty can last for a year, after all, the Great Song Dynasty is big, but whether they can last for a year without a salary, everyone still knows in their hearts, so the Great Song Dynasty gradually reversed the concept of Ryukyu.

Then the newspaper controlled by Tong Guan began to report on the robbery of the Ryukyu Mission, so that everyone was not calm, and the reason for the joint war turned out to be because of this, originally people wanted to be the younger brother of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty disliked the background of the family, which is nothing.

But if you don't accept others as your younger brother and rob other people's things, and you want to kill people's people, then things will hurt, and the war between the two countries is because of a businessman's self-imposed greed for money! Two countries wipe the ass of his family?

If it is a country-to-country hatred, a national issue. The war caused by plunder or greed, then everyone is fighting desperately, anyway, the war with the Liao State and the Western Xia is because of this, and everyone complains if they can't win.

But because of such a painful reason to fight, so much made the Song Dynasty feel that they had been tricked, of course, the newspaper did not dare to say that the last thing fell into the hands of Zhao Ji, so the Zhang family was completely finished this time, and the people were extremely angry, and they were directly imprisoned in prison.
