Chapter 138: Wu Shicheng's Choice

After the expansion, Wu Shicheng, as a general under King Cheng, was the first to hook up with the people of the Xiang family, and then as the leader, he gave advice to Xiang Feng and dragged many powerful people in the court into the water. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

At first, Wu Shicheng was successfully pulled into the water by Zhou Yan, Tan Zhen, Liu Ming and other fox friends who had always been in the army, and later everyone colluded to pull Zhang Shide and Zhang Shixin into the water.

As for why they can't pull down Lu Zhen, it's not because Lu Zhen is really as honest and dedicated to the country as his idol Yue Fei.

And just because Lu Zhen has a tendon, that is, he only listens to Zhang Shicheng's words, he maintains his original heart, just like when Wu Shicheng first entered the officialdom, carefully and carefully handle every benefit in his hand, the money that should not be taken, and the benefits that should not be obtained, he will not take it!

People often walk by the river, where is there a reason not to get their shoes wet, this time by Xiang Feng's words to the heart, Wu Shicheng understands very well that he is going to finish playing this time!

Wu Shicheng also naively thought that with his superb skills, he would not bump into ghosts when he often walked at night, and he would not soften his hands when he took other people's things, but his own handle was in the hands of others, that is, corruption and treason were not counted, and the most deadly thing was to communicate with his sister-in-law!

When Xiang Feng was trying to deal with Su Zedong and wanted to eradicate him, he also left a heart, and left a hand behind his back, so that the people who killed the alliance also checked the details of the people who partnered with him, which is also a necessary means for people who are in government and business.

Su Zedong will use it, so he Xiang Feng, as a member of the Xiang family, will naturally have fun!

Of course, as there are more and more partners in the court, Xiang Feng has more eyeliner, and there are more and more outrageous deeds.

They have many henchmen in the court, and they want to be promoted and make a fortune and take the initiative to ask Ying to become their wealth, wind, and the minions of the stream are even more flocking!

They were still on guard at first, but when they came to the back, they saw that there was no movement from the imperial court, and even Su Zedong, who had always been upright and clean, had no way to take them, and had to compromise with them and give them silver taels!

Now, Wu Shicheng has no way to take Xiang Feng, and has to make a compromise, that is, after the matter is completed, his fortune and power will be greater and higher.

Of course, Xiang Feng promised with a mouthful, anyway, these things are all after the fact, who can be sure of what will happen in the future? And whether it can be done is one thing!

Therefore, if the verbal commitment is Xiang Feng's favorite thing to do as a businessman or as a person in the officialdom.

Because he doesn't have to pay any price, he can rely on his credibility to get what he wants, and he himself has an advantage that others can't match, that is, the credibility of the entire Xiang family!

Wu Shicheng can't resist Xiang Feng, but he really can't make the decision alone in this matter.

Therefore, on the second night of Gaoyou City, after the Mongolian army suffered a big loss in the battle with the guards of Gaoyou City, Wu Shicheng invited many brothers to eat celebration wine in plain clothes, and let a group of fox friends and dog friends come to the house to sit.

Don't look at Zhou Yan, Tan Zhen and the others who were smiling from ear to ear after winning the battle, boasting and proud in the splendid living room of Wu Mansion, in fact, they all knew very well in their hearts that the reason why they were able to win the battle was actually because of the good defense facilities of Gaoyou City!

When it comes to the defense facilities of Gaoyou City, Su Zedong and his Dongzhen mansion, as well as the financial resources of Dongzhen Company, have to be mentioned.

People who are officials and generals in Gaoyou City know that the towers of Gaoyou City, as well as the fortifications a few miles outside the moat, are all managed by Su Zedong and the forces behind him.

At the beginning, Su Zedong had already drafted a prelude on strengthening the construction of fortifications, and in the third month after he entered Gaoyou City, he presented it to Zhang Shicheng at the court meeting through an inconspicuous minor official in the court;

Zhang Shicheng did not agree to all of them at first, but only gave instructions on some of the dispensables, and others, such as the forts and blockhouses, iron fences and other buildings that play a vital role in resisting the Mongol army, were not approved.

However, with the occupation of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces by Zhang Shicheng's troops, the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces expanded, and the more attention it received from the supreme ruler of the Yuan court, the more it was noticed. At first, Timur was not a pleasure-seeker, but later he felt that it was useless to care too much, and he was like that;

And there is a larger camp in his own rear, that is, Mongolia, so he began to slowly slack off on government affairs and left it to his ministers.

And most of the ministers are military attachés, and the generals are fighting each other for the land, for women and gold and silver treasures, and this is good, the imperial power has fallen, the ministers are in charge, and the open and secret battles between each other can now be directly put on the table!

The violent conflict almost didn't take place in the palace after the emperor sat down! And in such a situation, Tuo Timur is not willing to care too much.

However, if someone in the rebel army claims to be the king and hegemon, he, the emperor, must come forward to take care of it.

Because in the concept of Tu Timur, no matter how noisy and cannibalistic the gang under his command is, it is the Yuan court's own business, their Mongol business;

The rebel army is different, and the rebel army is mostly peasants, chaotic people, and dirty people who have no land, no rights, and no private finances!

But it doesn't matter if there is an uprising, which dynasty has not revolted, which place has not revolted, the local government should kill it, and if it should be pacified, it will be pacified, but if it is called the king and hegemon, it will definitely not work, this is to take away his world, and it must be suppressed!

Therefore, if it is useless to appease, Su Zedong seized the opportunity when the imperial court sent troops to Zhang Shicheng and his foundation Gaoyoucheng many times to exterminate him.

The book was written again and again, and it was reused again and again, and slowly won Zhang Shicheng's trust, so that it has today's scale.

It is one thing for the court to support it, but it is another thing for Su Zedong to contribute money and efforts for it; Although the imperial court subsidized the construction of the defense project of Gaoyou City by Su Zedong and his Dongzhen Company, the silver was really a drop in the bucket for the construction of the ideal fortifications of Su Zedong and Liu Zhenming.
