"Master, I found a large number of items that can be exchanged for contribution points, do I need to exchange them directly?"

Liu Miao had just arranged the delivery of money and food when he heard Bobo's prompt. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Is it in this warehouse?" Liu Miao asked.

"Although there are some here, they can't exchange many contribution points. The items detected by the system are not here. ”

"Then you show the way, and I'll see what it is."

Under Bobo's prompt, Liu Miao was easy to find, but what surprised him was that the item prompted by the system turned out to be the Buddha statue in the Futu Temple.

"Bobo, what's so special about this Buddha statue? It was possible to redeem contribution points from the system. ”

"The items that can be exchanged for contribution points from the system are all things that can be used by the system, and what the specific use is is not within Bobo's authority."

Although Bobo did not give an accurate answer, Liu Miao already had some guesses in his heart, and he no longer delved into this question, but instead randomly took a few Buddha statues and tried them, and found that the contribution points that each Buddha statue could exchange were different, but they were basically in the range of hundreds to thousands.

Liu Miao was not very interested in Buddhism in this era, and after experiencing the matter of Zhenrong, he was even more disapproving. He simply handed over all the Buddha statues he could find to the system and exchanged them for contribution points, and even some Buddha statues outside the Futu Temple were not spared. Zhenrong flourished Buddhism in Xiapi, and there were hundreds of Buddha statues erected, which allowed Liu Miao to gain a total of more than 180,000 contribution points, and Liu Miao temporarily had contribution points available. The only thing that made him a little sorry was that the Buddha statue was swallowed directly by the system, wasting that large amount of copper.

On the second day, Zhang Liao came to Xiapi with 3,000 Wudang Fei troops and 1,000 divine arm archers, in addition to 5,000 ordinary soldiers who had not been transformed, and these ordinary soldiers were also used to transport money and food. And Liu Ji's soup soup soup raising work has also begun.

At this point, Liu Miao's plan to empty Xiapi was officially put into effect. However, what he didn't know was that the recent situation of Xiapi had been sent to Tan County, Xuzhou.

In the Tanxian Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, Tao Qian convened his cronies for urgent consultations, and those who joined the association were Zhao Yu, Wang Lang in Zhizhong, Lu Zhu in Beijia, Cao Bao and his brother Cao Hong.

"Zizhong (Mi Zhu), tell me about the news you got." Tao Qian got straight to the point.

Mi Zhu did not hesitate, and said in a deep voice: "In the past few days, I have received news one after another that Liu Miao, the Taishou of Jiujiang, led his troops to attack Xiapi and has already succeeded. ”

"What? And so on? Cao Bao was an anxious man, and before Mi Zhu could finish speaking, he screamed. He did not doubt the accuracy of Mi Zhu's information, as Mi Zhu, as the leading wealthy merchant in Xuzhou, the caravan's sense was all over the prefecture and county, and it was easy to get such news.

"Big brother, don't be impatient." Cao Hong pulled the corner of Cao Bao's clothes next to him, he was also shocked by the news, but he was much calmer than Cao Bao.

"My lord, has Xiapi Xiangrong reported the news?" Zhao Yu asked.

"Nope." Tao Qian replied helplessly, and then motioned for Mi Zhu to continue.

"According to the person who reported the news from my subordinates, Liu Miao attacked Xiapi in the early morning, and he captured the Geyishan barracks with fire, and at the same time captured Xiapi City. Zhenrong sent troops to rescue Geyi Mountain, but not only did not succeed, but was pursued and fled to the Futu Temple to hold on, and the Jiujiang army only took two or three hours to take the barracks and the city. Moreover, the temple was not held in the end, and was captured the day before yesterday. At present, I have not received any news about Zhenrong, and it is expected that there is less luck. The reason why Zhen Rong did not send a message to the lord should be that there was no chance, first, he did not perceive Liu Miao's sneak attack in advance, and it was too late to know about it, and second, Liu Miao blocked the road traffic from Xiapi to Tan County. The news from my subordinates was sent from the detour of Guangling County. ”

Zhao Yu asked again: "Then Liu Miao is the younger brother of King Langya, and it is said that he was able to serve as the Taishou of Jiujiang because of Emperor Shanggong." How could he raise an army for no reason? ”

Mi Zhu looked at Tao Qian and replied, "It is said that it is because the money and grain borrowed by Liu Miao from the King of Langya were robbed by Zhenrong. This matter has spread in Xiapi, but it is unknown whether it was a rumor deliberately spread by Liu Miao. ”

Mi Zhu did not say that Di Rong had robbed grain to death, but everyone here knew that this thing must be true, because Di Rong had many criminal records, and there had been merchants who had gone to the state pastoral office to complain, saying that Di Rong had set up a checkpoint in Xiapi to seize the goods of passing merchants.

But it is not easy for them to express their opinions on this matter at this time, because Zhen Rong is Tao Qian's fellow countryman and confidant, and Tao Qian has forced Tao Qian to suppress the previous things, and even they know that Zhen Rong is in Xia Pi Guang to accumulate money and food, and to promote Buddhism is Tao Qian's instructions. Since the death of the king of Xiapi, Tao Qian had plans to move the Xuzhou administration to Xiapi City.

When it came to this matter, everyone was silent for a while.

Of course, Tao Qian knew what they thought, so he said with a little embarrassment: "Now it is useless to pursue Zhenrong's fault, I invite you to come to ask how to deal with this matter, no matter what reason Liu Miao sent troops, but I can't give up Xiapi to him." ”

Mi Zhu said: "Lord, as far as I can see, Liu Miao is not interested in occupying Xiapi. ”

"How so?"

"According to the information I just got before I came here, Liu Miao is gathering the displaced people in Xiapi to transport grain to Jiujiang, and if he wants to occupy Xiapi, there is no need to do anything more."

"What? He wants to empty the Xiapi Mansion Treasury? Tao Qian was furious, "Zizhong, you, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

"I haven't had time to report to the Lord yet." Mi Zhu muttered, he didn't know why Tao Qian had such a big reaction, isn't it normal for Zhen Rong to rob other people's money and food, and others to take it back in retaliation?

The other people present also looked at Tao Qian suspiciously, just like Mi Zhu.

"Alas!" Tao Qian sat down dejectedly and said, "You don't know, in preparation for the relocation of Xuzhou Zhizhi, I asked Zhenrong to store the tax money and grain of the three counties of Xiapi, Pengcheng and Guangling in Xiapi City in the past three years. ”

"Huh?"

Everyone exclaimed, this was the first time they had heard of this.

Xuzhou has a total of five counties, according to Tao Qian, in the past three years, Xuzhou has been relying on the taxes of the two counties of Donghai and Langya, and the taxes of the three counties of Xiapi, Pengcheng and Guangling are all stored in Xiapicheng.

"Di Rong secretly stored all the money and grain somewhere outside Xiapi City, I hope Liu Miao didn't find out." Tao Qian said, but he knew that this possibility was very small, otherwise Liu Miao would not have collected a large number of displaced people to transport grain.

"My lord, for the sake of today's plan, we should send troops to Pi as soon as possible. Liu Miao's grain transportation has just begun, and we have time to do so, as long as we defeat Liu Miao and recapture Xiapi, the money and grain can be saved. Cao Hong suggested.

"Yes, we must get troops! The leopard is willing to be the vanguard, how can a small Jiujiang County be my opponent in Xuzhou, when my army is overwhelmed, Liu Miao will not be able to capture it! As soon as Cao Bao heard that the troops were dispatched, he quickly asked for help.

Tao Qian was also considering the possibility of raising troops before, and the Cao brothers' words were undoubtedly a booster, which made him decisively make up his mind, so he said angrily: "Send troops!" ”
