Chapter 66: Amazing Corruption
"Beauty, where to run. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" Xiao Ran staggered behind him, it seemed that he had drunk a lot of wine, and his cheeks were flushed.
The twin beauties dodged briskly, the purple ribbons fluttered, and the elder sister Xiaoxia shook off the green silk, hid behind the pillar and said with a smile: "Come and catch me!" ā
Xiao Ran suddenly ripped off the strip of cloth, pulled Xiao Xia over, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "I caught you, punish you with a bottle of wine." ā
Xiao Xia slapped Xiao Ran's shoulder and said, "You are cheating, people only take a small sip, okay." ā
Xiao Ran grabbed Xiao Xia's wrist and said, "No, no, it's like this." ā
Xiao Xia didn't follow and said: "I hate it, and I want to drink Hejiu again." ā
Xiao Ran pulled her twin sister Yuruo over and held her in her arms, and said with a smile: "There are even more annoying ones, and my husband will take you to the mandarin ducks to play in the water later." ā
After listening to their daughter's words, the two couples felt a chill, and Sun Yu was about to have a seizure and was held down by Fang Qin.
Fang Qin shook his head and said, "You go over now, what's the use of having a big fight with her?" ā
Sun Yu was dissatisfied: "Then you can't let her do this." ā
Fang Qin sighed and said: "Don't worry about it, the son can't help the mother, and the daughter can't help the father." ā
"Love is what you want." After Sun Yu finished speaking, he went back to the house angrily.
As night fell, the lights of the city gradually went out.
In the next two days, the supplies for the expedition to Huainan began to be pulled to the barracks one by one, and Sun Yang even took out 500 tons of wheat, that is, 2 million (Han) catties of wheat.
In Wancheng and nearby counties in exchange for meat and cloth, now the money is no longer good, the main currency has become cloth and grain, Sun Yang found that most of the real exchange for food are from the big families from the dock fort outside the city.
Of course, Sun Yang also sent troops out to hunt many times, it is said that there should be a lot of wild creatures this year, but I didn't expect the harvest to be pitiful, most of the hunt is pheasants, hares, etc., even if there is not even a wild boar and roe deer.
After inquiry, I learned that Zhang Xiu's army often hunted, which caused a sharp decline in wildlife nearby, and this is the hinterland of the Central Plains, which is densely populated, and the number of wild animals is not much.
However, the harvest of the hunting team that came back from the south was very surprising, they caught a lot of iron-eating beasts and came back, Sun Yang almost didn't laugh after seeing it, what kind of iron-eating beast is this, is it clearly a giant panda, I heard the people of the hunting team say that the iron-eating beasts are quite fierce, and they also injured a lot of people in order to catch them.
Sun Yang didn't expect that the giant panda that looks cute is so good, no wonder in ancient times, it can be called Pixiu, you must know that Pixiu is a symbol of courage and fierceness.
Some time ago, Sun Yang wanted to empty the official warehouses in various counties, and many people were worried, but they didn't expect that it was only two days, Sun Yang began to send grain everywhere again, which made many people puzzled, could it be that Sun Yang's grain fell from the sky.
Of course, people who think they are smart think that it is impossible for Sun Yang to pull grain from Xuzhou for thousands of miles, and the grain can only be pulled from Xiangyang, and coincidentally, there is really a batch of grain and equipment pulled from Xiangyang, which is the price of Liu Biao borrowing 5,000 soldiers from Sun Yang.
Is Liu Biao really out of soldiers? Of course not, Liu Biao was just testing Sun Yang, but he didn't expect Sun Yang to say a word, he really sent 5,000 people, Liu Biao heard the letter, and said to Kuai Yue, Sun Envoy Jun is really a believer, and this ally is settled.
In fact, at this time, the princes of the world talked about strength, and Liu Biao's strength was definitely at the top, you must know that Liu Biao left an army of more than 100,000 when he died, and Jingzhou could not afford to raise so many troops without millions of people.
During the Yonghe period, the population of Jingzhou exceeded 6 million, but after the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the chaos of the princes, it was reduced by more than half. After Liu Biao came to power, Jingzhou was stable, and hundreds of thousands of people poured into Jingzhou's Han River, Xiangyang, and even further south to Lingling, Guiyang and other places. The fertile soil of the Hanjiang River Plain and the coastal plain of Dongting Lake is enough for these people to live well, even if even a small part of it is developed.
Even Sun Yang planned to wait for the world to stabilize and migrate to the south to reclaim the land, after all, the peak of the Xiaoice River is approaching, and if you want to fight this natural disaster, you can only go south and south.
Since Liu Biao has such good conditions, why not fight, the reason is very simple, Jingzhou is not Liu Biao alone can have the final say, Liu Biao and Cao Cao are different, Liu Biao can be said to have taken office in Jingzhou alone, it is not easy to survive safely, you must know that the last Jingzhou assassin Wang Rui was forced to death by Sun Jian, many people say that Liu Biao is a dog guarding the land, and he has really wronged him, he is not unwilling to fight, but the resistance is too great.
Without further ado.
In front of the Western Army camp, Sun Yang with a group of professionals is seriously inspecting the bacon, cloth, salt, and equipment escorted in, and really let Sun Yang find out a lot of problems, it turns out that there are many generals who are responsible for procurement and take the opportunity to collude with big households, shoddy, take salt as an example, it is mixed with a lot of sand and wall ash, the equipment is even worse, many are rusty, and there are many moldy bacon, according to the final statistics, more than seventy percent of the materials have problems, Sun Yang secretly scolded this group of white-eyed wolves.
Many generals standing behind Sun Yang nervously wiped the sweat on their heads, Sun Yang was angry on the surface, but in fact, he was more nervous than them, if a few people were corrupt, it would be good to say, when most of the people participated, it was Sun Yang's turn to be scared and urgent, these people would directly pull the flag and rebel.
So Sun Yang coughed dryly and said, "After inspection, these materials are barely qualified, you have worked hard." ā
The generals were relieved when they heard this, that is, they had said that they had passed the test, and some of them were directly happy.
Sun Yang scolded secretly in his heart, do you want to laugh so obviously, the results of the inspection made Sun Yang feel painful, he really couldn't imagine that this group of generals of the Western Army had fallen so quickly, or that they were like this, but there was a shortage of materials some time ago, and there was nothing to fish.
Sun Yang returned to the tent and smashed things, smashed for a while, and found that he was very ridiculous, so he simply sat down and drank water, if there was no celebration in the barracks, it was not allowed to drink, Sun Yang himself had to take the lead, otherwise the people below would follow suit and fight a fart battle.
The system explained: "Don't be angry, as long as you can win the war, you don't care if they are corrupt or not, whether it is the army of Li Shimin of Tang Taizong or the army of Temujin, it is very common to fill their own pockets, and those in power turn a blind eye." ā
Sun Yang said with a sad face: "I am distressed about the food, cheap these white-eyed wolves, and only took out a small part of the loss, otherwise, they would not even leave me a hair." ā
"Newspaper"
"Come in"
A general beside Sun Yang walked in and said, "Report to the lord, there are indeed a lot of people doing leather and meat business outside the barracks, and many soldiers secretly take food out......
Sun Yang interrupted: "You go down." ā
"No"
Sun Yang was angry and funny, "It's just been a good day for two days, and my tail is about to go to the sky." ā
"And what do you want to do?" The system asked.
"The generals can't move for the time being, so they will first restrain the soldiers and reiterate the seventeen prohibitions and fifty-four beheadings." Sun Yang replied.
"You're playing with fire."
"I'm measured."
