Chen Zhongzi is very aware of the current situation of the Dongjiang headquarters.

The development momentum of Phi Island has been good in recent years, but the terrain of Phi Island is too small, and the population is too much.

Up to now, in Phi Dao, there is basically a slightly flat open space, either growing food or living people.

The reason why these generals and officials in the Dongjiang headquarters are obsessed with Li Yuanqing is that they take a fancy to the salt farms that Li Yuanqing and his Chen Zhong built on Changsheng Island and Guanglu Island.

But with the topography of Phi Island, where did the empty space come from to build a salt farm?

Moreover, with Mao Wenlong on top, how does the salt farm operate?

The most important thing is that even if Mao Wenlong nodded, but the salt field of the headquarters, these generals, where does the profit ~~ come from?

Especially after Chen Jisheng's right alliance was defeated, Mao Wenlong also suffered several defeats in succession, and now he can't wait to find this one immediately, how can he have time to get these?

Chen Zhong took a sip of wine and sighed, "Yuanqing, this matter is really difficult for you." These brothers in this department are still too anxious. ”

Li Yuanqing also took a sip of wine and looked at Chen Zhong's eyes, "Big brother, the brothers in the headquarters look up to me Li Yuanqing, and I, Li Yuanqing, have to take over this burden!" ”

"Hey! Yuanqing, this fucking ......"

Chen Zhong took a sip hard, but suddenly found that he really didn't want to say anything more.

If you say more, wouldn't it be Mao Wenlong's?

Li Yuanqing naturally saw Chen Zhong's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Big brother, come, let's not talk about this annoyance, let's have a drink." ”

The two drank a few glasses of wine one after another, Chen Zhong let out a long breath of turbidity, and said a little distractedly: "Yuanqing, our brothers, there are some words, I don't shy away from anything." Dashuai, Dashuai, he's really a little old! ”

Li Yuanqing nodded, but did not immediately express his position.

In front of Chen Zhong, even if he talks about Mao Wenlong, he won't shy away too much now.

The interests of the two people and the two departments have long been firmly linked, and it is almost difficult to be separated, Li Yuanqing is not worried or afraid, Chen Zhong will betray him.

Although the Dongjiang River is still in its heyday, it has expanded too rapidly, various interests are entangled, and the foundation of the Dongjiang itself is not thick enough, and many seemingly subtle but fatal contradictions have begun to gradually emerge.

To put it most bluntly, Dongjiang is now the most inclusive military group in the entire Liao region, and even in the entire Ming Dynasty, with too few resources, but there are too many generals under its command.

Li Yuanqing initially estimated that Dongjiang was now only more than 1,000 officers, at least four or five hundred.

However, I am afraid that Dongjiang's actual establishment will be difficult to accommodate more than 100 people.

The reasons for this result are complex, but they're also simple and intuitive.

The three departments of Liaodi, Li Yuanqing's southern Liaoning had just become independent, and did not catch up with the outbreak and escape after the defeat of the Guangning Army in the first and second years of the Apocalypse.

After the defeat at Shaling and Xipingbao, the more than 100,000 troops of the Quang Ninh Army were almost wiped out, and the casualties among the people were even heavier.

But in fact, it is true that the people suffered heavy casualties, and it is also true that the Quang Ninh army was defeated, but for the large and small military leaders within the Quang Ninh army, although it was a great change, in fact, it did not hurt their bones.

With the experience of fleeing from Shenyang City, Li Yuanqing deeply understood that their successive defeats in Liaodi, the only ones who were really injured were the common people.

The army, the soldiers, especially the officers, have too many resources compared to the common people.

At the beginning, when the Houjin soldiers were trapped in Shenyang City, if Li Yuanqing was not the leading soldier, even if he knew that the Houjin army would break the city tomorrow, it would be difficult for him to have a chance to escape at the best time.

Otherwise, his biggest nightmare would not be the Houjin army, but the Ming army of his compatriots.

For example, in the Battle of Xipingbao, when the main force of more than 30,000 Liu Qu and others was surrounded and suppressed by the Houjin army in Shaling, there were at least more than 100,000 Ming troops near the surrounding area, and they had every chance to rescue, but from beginning to end, until Liu Qu and others were defeated and died, there was not even a single support army to rescue.

Shaling was defeated, Xipingbao fell, and the other more than 100,000 so-called elite soldiers of the Guangning Army only fled all the way, and the defeat was like a mountain.

But they have the news of the main force of Houjin, how can the common people have it?

By the time the people reacted, the butcher's knife of the main force of Houjin had already been raised in front of them.

Unarmed, how can they resist the wolf-like main force of Houjin? can only be reduced to pigs and sheep, and all of them will be slaughtered.

In the Battle of Quang Ninh, the Ming army that really died at the hands of the Later Jin Army was only a handful.

Especially the military leaders, large and small, except for those who were used as cannon fodder and caught typical ones, many of the rest have never really broken their bones.

Later, the main force of Houjin withdrew and burned the city of Guangning, and Zhao Shujiao took the opportunity to recover Qiantun and began to recruit troops and horses in Qiantun in a big way, intending to recover.

But Zhao Shujiao is a veteran general of Guan Ning, how could he look at too many routs and mud legs of the Guangning army?

Except for a few useful people who were left behind by Zhao Shujiao, most of the rest either ran away with their family wealth and covered the road and fled back to Guannai, or went to Phi Island to take refuge in the emerging Mao Wenlong and became an official and a half-job.

Since Mao Wenlong recovered Zhenjiang, the saint is strong and powerful, and Gonggong Wei is also very optimistic about him, and there is no civilian official supervising the army on Phi Island, so he has really promoted a large number of people.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were the beneficiaries at that time.

But the two of them are only 'one of them'.

After that, the remnants of the Ming army, including Shenyang and Liaoyang, were defeated, and many officers later arrived at Phidao and integrated into the Dongjiang system.

Mao Wenlong's thinking of 'embracing all rivers' is not wrong, but due to many reasons and limited resources on Phi Dao, he cannot bring these gathered hundreds of streams into full play.

In the end, this is still the limitation of the times.

Especially now in the Dongjiang headquarters, as long as they are slightly similar, have some ability, or can drill camps, they have basically joined Mao Wenlong's army of righteous sons.

At this time, in Phi Dao, as far as the eye can see, there is a large area of 'booming', all of which are Mao Wenlong's righteous sons.

This makes those generals who are really capable, but not good at drilling up the camp, how should they deal with themselves? And when will they wait for their chance?

At the beginning of Zhenjiang City, fortunately, Li Yuanqing was ruthless and decisive, decisively gave up Zhenjiang City, fled to Guanglu Island, formed an established fact for Mao Wenlong, and then surrounded him to go to Phi Island, so he barely jumped out of this circle with one foot.

But it really took nearly three years for Li Yuanqing to be promoted to the commander-in-chief and completely get rid of Mao Wenlong's control in the general trend.

But to some extent, even now, Li Yuanqing is still under the influence of Mao Wenlong.

Chen Zhong was able to say these words at this time, and it was only after he jumped out of this circle that he got the tangible benefits brought to him by Li Yuanqing, so that he could see it more clearly.

At the end of the day, it's a battle between the old and the new.

In history, without the appearance of Li Yuanqing, in the entire year of the Apocalypse, until the change of Jisi, Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang have always been the leaders of Liaodi.

But at this time, with the existence of Li Yuanqing and his immortal camp, many things have references, and it doesn't matter if they are compared, if they are compared, many things will be revealed.

In particular, the most fundamental economic situation, the Dongjiang headquarters at this time, cannot be compared with Li Yuanqing at all.

Even in terms of military exploits, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong are far ahead of the Dongjiang headquarters.

And with Li Yuanqing's return from the North, to a large extent, the strategic role that Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang were most proud of, was also drastically curtailed.

It's no wonder that Zhang Pan, Mao Chenglu, Chen ~ Liangce, and even Chen Jisheng, these people want to rely on Li Yuanqing's big ship and find a way back.

From Li Yuanqing's point of view, he respects Mao Wenlong very much, and thanks Mao Wenlong for giving him this platform, so that he can have the opportunity to show his strength and make a big move.

But the situation is changing.

Because of Li Yuanqing's desperate involvement, although the situation of the Ming Dynasty in Liaodi at this time was very good, it was not stable.

Especially when the old slave got older, he committed a lot of stupid tricks and persecuted the Han people under his rule, which led to the great weakening of the combat effectiveness of the Han army banner.

After so many battles, Li Yuanqing is already very clear.

The so-called Eight Banners warriors of the old slave are indeed brave, but when it comes to the battlefield, those who really contribute and fight to the death still rely on the Han military flag.

Once the Han army flag was crippled and there were a large number of casualties, their female Allah would not be able to last long at all.

Even if the Manchu Qing Dynasty later arrived in the Central Plains and dominated the north, but in Yangzhou City, in the face of the tenacious sniping of Shi Kefa and the army and civilians, the so-called Eight Banner warriors, with only 100 casualties, will soon disperse in a hurry, not at all, completely like mad dogs and wolves.

According to the rolling wheels of history, the time of the old slave is running out.

Li Yuanqing was not afraid of the old slave at all.

But once the majestic dead fat man came to power, swept away the previous persecution policy of the old slaves against the Han people, and turned to reuse Hanchen, that ......

Li Yuanqing picked up the wine glass and took a sip hard, his eyes were deep.

To a large extent, Li Yuanqing deeply understood that if he wanted to completely end the scourge of Houjin, before the old slave died, he would directly attack Shenyang and completely destroy the foundation of Houjin, even if he could not destroy Huang Taiji, it would be difficult for him to become a big disaster again.

It's just that Li Yuanqing also understands deeply that although he and the sons of the Changsheng Camp under his command have a very good momentum now, it is simply unrealistic to destroy the entire kingdom of Houjin with the power of just one island.

The Immortal Battalion was already powerful at this time, but it was still unable to confront the tens of thousands of Eight Banner Iron Cavalry head-on.

The wheel of history will eventually go on that track.

The only thing that is fortunate is that Li Yuanqing has retained one of the most critical seeds.

Seeing that Li Yuanqing was silent for a long time, Chen Zhong said: "Yuanqing, in this matter, if you are under too much pressure, don't force yourself." I'll go tell them. It's a big deal, let Zhang Pan and Mao Chenglu find an opportunity to release them, and then we'll try to get in touch! ”

Li Yuanqing shook his head slowly.

Mao Wenlong was anxious to find a place in Liaodong, how could he release Zhang Pan and others at this time?

Putting everything aside, he, Li Yuanqing, is now the hope of Zhang Pan and these people, a spark that burns with fire, once Chen Zhong sings this black face, the consequences are really a little weird and unpredictable.

"Big brother, I have already promised to do this, so I must do it. We are all brothers, we have all come to such a difficult road before, how can we be afraid of this time? ”

Chen Zhong nodded heavily, "Yuanqing, you are too affectionate!" Ay......! ”

Chen Zhong said, with a long sigh, "Yuanqing, I know that you have a bright brain, but at this time, I really can't think of any way you can use to help Zhang Pan and them earn money." You can't, you tear down your own food and pay to subsidize them, right? ”

Li Yuanqing suddenly smiled, filled the wine glass for Chen Zhong, signaled to Chen Zhong, drank it all, and said with a smile: "Big brother, don't say it, I'm really going to do this." ”

"Huh?"

Chen Zhong was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses, "Yuanqing, you, are you crazy?" ”
