Chapter 397: Repaying Grievances with Grievances (3)

Ji Feng gave Jiang Yun a chance to choose, but the situation in front of him did not allow him to choose at all. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The eldest brother has made up his mind to wrestle with the imperial court, the current situation is very peaceful, all because the old emperor is alive, once he leaves, after the dragon chair is replaced by Ji Qiyun to sit on, the two of them will look at each other unpleasantly, if Jiangnan shows the slightest inappropriate behavior, this rebellious hat will not be taken off. Involved in this crime, Jiang Yun, as the son-in-law of King Wu, is the closest person except for his children, and no one can run away from him. It makes no difference how he chooses, unless he runs to the court to denounce it now.

When it comes to allegiance, this is a very contradictory topic.

Jiang Yun said in this regard that Ji Luo's relationship is on the surface, and he will try his best to help him, even if he ignores the different attitudes of King Wu's father and son towards the imperial court, at least externally, he and Ji Feng are the same. Jiang Yun is not a pedantic person, sitting back and waiting to die? Not his character. So there is no need for allegiance in the first place.

Jiang Yun's financial resources are not false, but the problem is that after so many years of running-in, the interests between King Wu and the Jiangnan clan headed by the Shen family have been completely bundled. In the case that the change is imminent and there is no need for long-term investment, the financial resources of the Jiangnan clan are enough to support a war. If you win, you naturally don't have to spend money anymore, and if you lose, you won't have a chance to spend money. In the short term, Ji Feng's financial resources are worry-free, and multiple Jiang Yun is nothing more than icing on the cake, which is harmless. In this regard, Jiang Yun has no qualifications for allegiance at all.

The reason why Ji Feng wanted him to make this request was that to put it bluntly, it was not him who took a fancy to, but the entire Yizhou military force standing behind Jiang Yun. In ancient times, wars were fought only two things, one was the economy, and the other was the population. With a corner of the enemy in the whole country, the strength of the army is of great importance. This is a matter of course, but the problem is that Mo said that it was a mere land south of the Yangtze River under the command of King Wu, and even if the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was added, the two together would not be an opponent of Yizhou.

From this point of view, King Wu has no qualifications to make Jiang Yun loyal at all, let alone Ji Feng, who is currently only the son of the world. If another person made this request to him, Jiang Yun was afraid that he would throw a big-eared melon seed earlier, and then give a free sentence: Don't pee and take care of yourself, why? But in the face of Ji Feng, he couldn't bear to refuse.

On the surface, this is a request, but in fact it is a helpless request, from Ji Feng's eyes, and even with a little pleading. For a man, if he is unable to avenge it, that feeling can drive people crazy.

Jiang Yun never cared about his family, even if he didn't like to be restrained, after thinking about it for a while, he still resolutely said: "What do you want me to do, big brother, just say it." ”

"Good!" Ji Feng was overjoyed when he heard this, sat back on the bench, stared at Jiang Yun and said, "Time is pressing, we don't have much time to prepare." I mean, let's divide the work. ”

"How?"

"I have been away from Jinling for several years, and I have been estranged a lot in terms of contacts, and I must repair it as soon as possible, and I can only concentrate on socializing before the spring of next year, and these three battalions of soldiers will be lost to you." Ji Feng pondered for a moment and said: "There is only one request, for half a year, to try to expand the number of soldiers in our hands to 100,000." ”

"It's easy." Jiang Yun smiled and took the order.

"It's not easy." Ji Feng shook his head and said, "You can't attract anyone's attention and secretly expand the army." ”

"That can't be." Jiang Yun's wind direction became extremely fast, and he immediately opened his mouth to refuse. "Big brother, you'd better find someone else."

"What?"

"You don't know the situation in Jinling City, it's not an iron bucket itself, many bureaucrats are appointed by the imperial court, and their positions can't be confirmed at all, so many people always have their hearts towards the imperial court. It's impossible for the expansion of the army not to make any noise, they just need to poke it up, won't it be revealed? What's more, although the Dark Dragon Guard I formed in the name of His Majesty has cut Jiangnan out of the monitoring scope of the spy alliance, it doesn't mean that there are no people from the spy alliance here, it's not difficult to find a reason to expand the army, but if you want to expand, you won't let the court know, it's impossible. ”

"I know that." Ji Luo looked at Jiang Yun and smiled: "But I also know that you must have a way, so it's decided." I still have something to do, let's go first, you can be more familiar with it here. ”

Jiang Yun sadly found that he seemed to follow in the footsteps of his father-in-law, and with a stunned effort, he let his eldest brother talk to himself and decide the matter. He was the only one left in the big tent of the Chinese army, and Jiang Yun would be so troubled by Sensei.

Things have exceeded expectations, and Jiang Yun has always insisted on achieving the maximum benefit at the lowest cost. After becoming the Lord of the Dark Alliance, he never thought of confronting the Ancestral Sect from the front, let alone continuing to maintain the Ji family's dynasty. His plan was very simple, to take advantage of the difference between the bank's copper coins, treasure money, silver and gold, and to take advantage of the loopholes caused by the world's lack of computers and telephones, and to bankrupt most of the people overnight at lightning speed when the time came, so as to make the imperial court bear a huge debt that was difficult to repay.

Economic warfare is a nuclear bomb, enough to cause countless riots in the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty in a short period of time, and the riots will turn into uprisings after brewing. When the imperial court became the enemy of the people, no matter how powerful the ancestral sect was, it could not continue to protect the old Ji family. Once the Zhou Dynasty fell, the ancestral religion that depended on it would naturally disappear.

At that time, the mainland will be scattered, and this piece of fat will naturally attract countless hungry wolves around, and when the people are in dire straits and gradually feel desperate, the Yizhou army will be able to sweep the eight wildernesses, unify Kyushu, and complete the feat of national unification as a "savior". Yizhou was originally an immigrant from the previous dynasty, and there was no difference between it and the people of the mainland, relatively speaking, the resistance of the people was the smallest, and the probability of success was extremely great.

What a perfect plan! Even Jiang Yun had to admire himself. But just because of the anger of the eldest brother's husband, the powerful nuclear bomb of economic warfare had to be abandoned. What started as a 1,000-meter walk has evolved into a 10-kilometer marathon, especially an obstacle marathon.

Headache, headache! Sitting alone in the tent for most of the day, Jiang Yun didn't come up with any way, so he simply left the barracks and prepared to go home early for dinner. But I didn't want to go to the corner of the street, and I was blocked by another uncle who had been waiting for a long time.

"Jiang Yun, here!" Xu Chengsi saw him from a distance and shook his hand vigorously.

Jiang Yun stepped forward. "Something? Why don't you go to your house and sit down, and run the street to keep watch? ”

"Wan Ting and Xiao Luo are both at your house, I'll go... Ahem, inconvenient. Xu Chengsi looked left and right like a thief, and was about to speak, but he still felt uneasy, so he hurriedly pulled Jiang Yun to the side of the alley, and then said, "Do you have free time recently?" ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Yun was angry, and he replied with an unkind face: "I'm not as good as your Young Master Xu, I have fun playing all day long, I'm just a hard worker, I've been very busy recently, and I will be even busier in the future." Anyway, my daughter-in-law is still at home waiting for me to go back. ”

"Don't go!" Xu Chengsi hurriedly stopped him. "I heard that when you and your eldest brother were in the capital, they lingered in the Qinglou Pavilion every day?"

"What? You're not the same yet. Jiang Yun looked at him strangely, not understanding what this guy was thinking.

"Have you seen the Oiran of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"

"Flame Dance?" Jiang Yun was stunned: "I've seen it, what's wrong?" ”

"How's it going?"

"The country is beautiful, indeed... Speaking of this, Jiang Yun didn't know how to describe it for a while, with Ji Feng's relationship, he couldn't say words like "I see pity", it would inevitably seem too frivolous. After holding back for a long time, he said: "A stunning beauty that is one in a million, if you only look at her appearance, Luo'er and Huanting can't compare to her." ”

"That's not wrong, no wonder others say that the Kao Contest after the beginning of spring, Xiaoxiang Pavilion is bound to win."

Jiang Yun rolled his eyes when he heard this, I'm afraid there is nothing to do with the Xiaoxiang Pavilion in this Kao Competition, and the people are dancing... Hey, it's a shame. Is it still inevitable? It's not impossible, unless Fang Yaqing's girls participate in the competition in person.

"Jiang Yun, I said... Xu Chengsi hesitated for a while and said, "You don't want to see, how does Brother Shen plan to deal with it this time?" It stands to reason that the voice of Xiaoxiang Pavilion is so high, he should be a little worried, but every time he talks about this issue, he always looks unimpressed, so I'm curious! Why don't we go and mention it to him and take a look at the Oiran of this year's Queyunju? ”
