Chapter 880: Escape
800, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the little dumb girl in Houfu!
"A few years ago, Beiliang followed our example in Pingyang County and carried out the imperial examination. Gaining fame and becoming an official should be acceptable to the children of the Northern Liang family.
They have a family background, have confidence, and are definitely not afraid to compete with the children of the poor family.
Only in the area of taxation, the lady wants to take the family as a knife, treat everyone equally, and pay taxes for all. I'm worried that the Northland family will resist taxes. ”
Mr. Ma's concern is very reasonable.
Let the family pay taxes, and only Yan Yunge has done this at present.
Whether it is the Southern Wei Dynasty or the Northern Liang Dynasty, the family is exempt from taxation.
Although the law does not explicitly stipulate this, the Maison can always find a way to avoid taxes.
You don't pay taxes, I don't pay taxes, everyone doesn't pay taxes.
As the saying goes, the law does not hold the people accountable, and the world still needs to be governed by family officials.
So......
Turn a blind eye, year after year, the family's non-payment of taxes has become an unspoken rule of tacit consent.
The burden of taxation naturally falls on the heads of homesteaders.
If this continues, the dynasty will never be able to follow the cyclical law of establishment, development, prosperity, decline, and demise.
Yan Yunge didn't want the country he had laid down to become unrecognizable and fall into the hands of thieves after a hundred years.
So......
She wants to overthrow the old system, overthrow the unspoken rules, and establish a new order.
If you want to achieve your goal, it will inevitably be accompanied by the rise and fall of the dynasty.
In other words, the Northern Liang must perish!
Liu's country no longer exists, the table is overturned, the rules of the game are reformulated, and everything is put on the table.
Don't do the little things under the table.
She affirmed, "That's right, all taxes." Either they would follow the example of the previous experience and have Mrs. Ben contribute to it, or exchange shares for land in the hands of the family. Either follow the rules and pay taxes honestly. If you want to reduce taxes, you have to take the imperial examination. No one is exempt from paying taxes. ”
"Madame is very determined, and sooner or later it will be done. The students are worried that there will be too much resistance at the beginning, and there will definitely be violent resistance. ”
"Whoever dares to resist violently will be suppressed by force. The army is not an ornament, and neither is Mrs. Ben's guard battalion. Starting with me, it is necessary to lay a solid foundation and set an indestructible example for those who follow. I have laid a solid foundation, and the next generation can sit back and enjoy it, worry-free. ”
"Madame has thought of everything, and the student is really ashamed."
"If you really feel ashamed, come up with a practical plan. Don't wait for the base camp to arrive at the Northern Liang Imperial City, everyone is still confused, and they don't know what to do and what not to do. ”
"Madame, rest assured, the students will come up with a qualified plan as soon as possible."
……
War clouds are thick.
Xiao Yi and Yan Yun are the same, pressing step by step.
The army of the Northern Liang court was divided into four roads, two of which were dragged by the thieves.
The other two armies turned back to help the imperial city.
In the Imperial City of Beiliang, the air was tense.
Everyone looks like they are facing a great enemy.
Pedestrians are in a hurry, the children of the powerful do not come out to spend all day drinking, and the officials are tightly frowning every day and cannot stretch their brows.
The market is in an unprecedented depression.
Except for essential daily necessities, people will not consume them lightly.
Even when buying and selling grain, they are cautious all the way and wary of the people around them.
The whole city was under martial law, and the Imperial City Division went out to lock people up.
When he saw a suspicious person, he was directly arrested and thrown into prison.
Afterwards?
After that, it's up to personal luck.
Luckily, I was released after some investigation.
If you are unlucky, no one cares whether you live or die, and you can only be locked up in the edict day after day.
If you have a big life, you may still have a chance to get out alive.
Those who have a bad life have died in the edict before they can breathe the air of freedom.
With such tensions, prices are bound to skyrocket.
In particular, the price of food, one price a day, simply does not give people a way to live.
The palace was quiet, and the palace people walked like cats, gently, without making a sound at all.
It's important to save your life!
If you make a move, you may become the next cannon fodder.
The courtiers were reduced by a third.
Some people resigned and ran away, some people were arrested and killed, and some people said that they couldn't get sick......
At the end of one's resources!
World madness!
Emperor Liu Baoshun was not in a hurry or impatient.
With the combat effectiveness of the army of the Northern Liang Imperial Court, it is completely possible to defend the dangerous checkpoints on the outskirts of the imperial city and fight a difficult battle, which may not be impossible to turn the situation around.
But......
Liu Baoshun didn't really want to fight this battle.
The cost of turning the tide, he knows too well.
He had already calculated an account, and he would fight this battle with all his might, at the cost of losing grain and grass, losing money, and losing more than half of the battle......
And after that?
Rely on this crippled remnant army to support the entire poor empire?
The Northland is too poor!
Beiliang is too poor!
It's so poor that people are desperate!
Such a piece of land, if the area is smaller, the population is smaller, and the family is less, there may be hope for salvation.
Right now, hehe......
"Does my father really want to give up the great country? The foundation that the emperor's grandfather worked so hard to lay was so abandoned, is the father willing? ”
The current deposed emperor Liu Yun was heartbroken and asked carefully.
He was not willing to give up.
The country is here, the court is there, and the emperor is there. He also has the opportunity to inherit the throne and continue to be emperor.
The country is dead, the court is dead, and the emperor no longer exists, so he has no chance to inherit the throne.
Poor him, he has only been a puppet emperor for a few months, and he has no authority at all.
He hasn't tasted the taste of imperial power yet, the country is gone, he is unwilling!
Liu Baoshun smiled softly, "Do you think it's good here?" Is the imperial court good? From the very beginning, from your imperial grandfather, it was doomed. ”
"Nope! Impossible. ”
Liu Baoshun retorted: "Nothing is impossible. If the whole world is unified and the north and the south are reunified, even if there are two or three more droughts, and the disaster lasts for three to five years, the country will not die.
However, the world is divided into north and south, there is a Yan Yunge in the middle, and there is a Yan Shouzhan in the north, which is doomed to come as soon as the disaster comes, and our Daliang Dynasty will come to the edge of life and death.
Of course, if you want to fight, you will definitely be able to fight, but I am afraid that the price cannot be afforded. After the family is finished, what will be used to rebuild it? Everything is predestined, resign yourself to fate! ”
"Grandpa Huang once said that his father was the most brave in battle, and he would always move forward bravely, not afraid of life and death. Why now, now ......"
"You mean to say that I'm cowardly and afraid of death now, aren't you?"
"Erchen doesn't dare!" The abolished emperor Liu Yun lowered his head and looked honest.
Liu Baoshun laughed at himself, "When I was young, because someone was doing it for me, I was brave and not afraid of life and death." Now, my order is related to the lives of thousands of people, and no one can cover for me, everything has changed, and I have become cautious. ”
The abolished emperor Liu Yun was very disappointed, how could this be.
"The great country said to give up, is my father willing?"
"There's nothing to be reluctant about."
Liu Baoshun looked very thoughtful.
As early as the time when he ordered the slaughter of the family, he was prepared for the worst.
It's a big deal to return to Liangzhou, continue to be a local military general, and be a soil emperor, it's good!
……
The imperial relatives are retreating, preparing for the abandonment of the country.
On the streets under martial law, the sound of wheels is endless.
The carriage was loaded with untold riches.
Visible......
The Liu family, the majority of the emperor's relatives and relatives, all agree with Emperor Liu Baoshun's decision to return to Liangzhou.
Even if some people are unwilling, with small arms and legs, they can't resist the current overall situation.
The imperial army that rushed to the aid of the imperial city was divided into two routes, setting up obstacles at the checkpoint all the way to block Xiao Yi and Yan Yuntong's army.
Escorting the emperor's relatives all the way, the jewels and grain were withdrawn to Liangzhou.
Half of the country, the famous Beiliang back then, the unstoppable Liangzhou soldiers and horses, defeated themselves without a fight.
It can be described as a hero's end, which is embarrassing.
If Liu Zhang is still alive, I am afraid that he will not hammer Liu Baoshun, a loser.
The efforts of several generations of the Liu family, decades of planning, and the country that was finally laid down, were actually handed over.
Ahh......hhh
How not to die!
The retreat was orderly, and the defense was in order.
The movements inside the imperial city were sent to Xiao Yi through Lin Xiaobao's news network.
"Oh my God, Liu Baoshun actually took the initiative to give up and withdraw to Liangzhou. General, do you want to send troops in pursuit? ”
Xiao Yat put the letter paper in the brazier, watched the paper burn out, and smashed it into ashes with tongs.
"There is no need to pursue," he said. ”
The general was puzzled, "There is a great opportunity, and it seems that Liu Baoshun and the relatives of Emperor Daliang can be captured alive, why didn't the general send troops to pursue him?" ”
Mr. Cheng explained: "The army did not encounter large-scale resistance along the way, why? Because Liu Baoshun doesn't want to fight a life-and-death battle with us.
If we send troops to pursue and intercept and cut off Liu Baoshun's retreat, Liu Baoshun will definitely fight us to the death at any cost.
Don't forget, the army of the Northern Liang Imperial Court is based on Liangzhou soldiers and horses, and its combat effectiveness is not trivial.
Once you fight a life-and-death battle, you can't say whether you win or lose. The gains outweigh the losses!
Moreover, the north is vast, and the disaster situation is now alleviated, but the people are still in the midst of natural and man-made disasters.
Freeing up troops to pursue is not conducive to the stability of the follow-up situation, let alone the resumption of production plan formulated by Mrs.
If the battle line is lengthened, supplies cannot be delivered to the front line in time, and the outcome of the battle is really unpredictable. ”
Xiao Yi added: "There is also the fact that the Northern Liang army is familiar with the topography of the northwest, and once the troops are sent to pursue, it is equivalent to taking our shortcomings against the strengths of the Northern Liang army, which is extremely disadvantageous." ”
"So, you can only watch Liu Baoshun run away?"
The generals were obviously unwilling.
What a great credit it is to seize the son of heaven of a country, and to give up.
Incomprehensible.
Xiao Yi was silent for a moment and nodded heavily, "For now, we can only watch Liu Baoshun run away." However, even if Liu Baoshun runs out of the imperial city, he may not run back to Liangzhou smoothly. He can still subdue the people below now, but when he escapes, it may not be. ”
Mr. Cheng added: "What the general said is extremely true! Once on the way to escape, in the style of Liangzhou soldiers and horses, there will be chaos.
Liu Baoshun boasted that he was still an invincible military general and could command the whole army.
As everyone knows, this time he took the initiative to give up, which had already made the army very dissatisfied, thinking that he was cowardly and miscreety. Look, the Liu clan will have infighting sooner or later! ”
