Chapter 777: What the hell
"The Yangtze River waterway has been cut off, and the Song family's private salt profits have been greatly impacted!"
Song Zhi and Song Yuzhi looked defeated, sitting honestly in front of Lin Sha, like two elementary school students who had done something wrong, honestly explaining all the causes and consequences of Song Valve's actions.
Everything is the fault of silver!
The Lingnan Song lords had an army of 300,000, as well as 100,000 warriors of the Lingnan mountain tribes.
These people had to eat and drink, and in addition to the small subsidies required by the mountain tribes, the supply of 300,000 troops also put a heavy burden on the Song valve.
At this time, the south has not yet undergone great development, the real economic core is in the area of Suzhou and Hangzhou, Lingnan is a wild land, except for a few big cities, the rest of the place is full of obstacles, and it is not suitable for the people to live and live.
The reason why the Song valve can afford to raise an army of 300,000 is that the benefit of Haiyan is the most important of them.
As a result, with the arrival of the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the illegal salt trade of the Song valve was frequently hit hard.
First of all, Du Fuwei rose in Jianghuai, and in repeated anti-encirclement and suppression operations, he repeatedly defeated the imperial court's encirclement and suppression army. Among them was the commander of the army installed by the Song valve in the imperial court, and the result was also a big defeat.
At this time, Song Valve's interests in Haiyan were hit hard.
Not long ago, the Yangtze River channel was interrupted by Li Mi and Du Fuwei, which was an absolutely devastating blow to the Song Valve's private salt trade.
"Li Mi wants to expand his sphere of influence in northern Hubei and Jianghuai, and contradictions with Du Fuwei's Jianghuai army are inevitable!" Song Yuzhi's delicate little face turned pale, and he hadn't fully recovered from the heavy blow before, he glared at Lin Sha fiercely and said hatefully: "Since the Wagang Army and the Jianghuai Army will have a battle sooner or later, we naturally have to find a suitable partner!" ”
"So, you're very optimistic about the future of the clay pot?"
Lin Sha smiled and spoke, but there was a coldness in his eyes.
"Naturally!" Song Zhi nodded in agreement.
"Hehe, the Wagang Army has suffered a big loss in Henan!"
Lin Sha smiled lightly and clicked to the end.
"Henan, there are generals in charge of you, so that you can thwart the Wagang offensive!"
Song Zhi said with admiration: "Wagang's strength is still very strong, at least in terms of the number of masters and the ability of the generals. It's a lot stronger than the Jianghuai army, so ......"
Lin Sha smiled, and then changed his words and said that there were already several large salt farms in Youzhou. The amount of sea salt produced continued to increase, and the price of salt in the northern inland was repeatedly compressed. In the end, there may be a loss.
"Weigh it up for yourselves, and find a new source of money as soon as possible, or else you ......"
He gloated with a face of schadenfreude, not worrying about them at all because of the alliance with Song Valve, wishing that Song Valve's gang of guys would have less and less say in the alliance because of financial reasons.
was beaten by Lin Sha very hard, warning them not to act too unscrupulously, and to think about their allies, otherwise there is no need for the alliance to continue.
Song Zhi and Song Yuzhi's uncle and nephew were trained like gray grandsons, and finally left Fulin Tower with a blushing face.
……
And Xiangyushan as a 'vote for the name'. The second thing he told Lin Sha was about the shadow assassin Yang Xuyan.
This surprised Lin Sha, and at the same time, he was also surprised by the Baling Gang's ability to gather intelligence.
Yang Xuyan, as Yang Guang's sharp knife in dealing with secret affairs, has always been secretive and unpredictable. At least a court member like Lin Sha, although he knew about Yang Xuyan's existence, he didn't know his specific actions and whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, the Baling Gang knew this very well, not only knew that the heroes who had died inexplicably in the rivers and lakes over the years were all the handicraft of Yang Xuyan, but even bluntly said that Yang Xuyan had arrived in Henan now, and the specific goals were unknown to Wagang Zhai Rang and Li Mi, or Hebei Dou Jiande.
This intelligence gathering and analysis ability. Sure enough, he deserves to be a 'professional'.
Lin Sha shook his head and chuckled, and instructed Song Jingang to send his henchmen to send a message to Yang Xuyan and ask him to be careful.
In addition to these two more important things. At the same time, in addition to matters directly related to Lin Sha, Xiang Yushan also talked about the increasingly lively situation in Luoyang City.
The rumors of He's wall are getting stronger and stronger, although it is not yet to the point of being known in the streets, but anyone who is a little capable can easily get the news in this regard.
According to Xiangyushan, Luoyang City is now full of heroes. The reason why he hasn't made a big mess yet, and he is very restrained, is because He Shibi hasn't really shown up yet.
When He's wall really appeared, I was afraid that Luoyang City would have to be bloody.
Lin Sha was dismissive of such a statement.
The battle for the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty, including the most tragic battle in the rivers and lakes, was actually only the two pig's feet of the Buddha Gate and the Demon Gate, and even the Daomen with declining strength were not qualified to participate.
The dispute between the Heshi wall in the original book is also the most fierce battle between Buddhism and the Demon Gate, the dispute between the descendants of the two major sects of Cihang Jingzhai and the Yinkui faction, as well as the competition for the lord of the world, has nothing to do with other Jianghu forces and heroes.
When the time comes, not to mention that the Buddhism Gate and the Demon Gate will be secretly cleared, even the Luoyang government will not allow uncontrolled heroes to do nonsense.
I can't say, Lin Sha will be a villain when the time comes.
It's not that he didn't think of leading troops to surround the Jingnian Zen Monastery and give those bald donkeys a profound lesson.
But he wasn't sure if He's Bi was hiding in the Jingnian Monastery at this time, but he clearly knew that Cihang Jingzhai was still gathering momentum at the moment, and no matter the timing or the change of the current situation, it was not yet time to launch Li Er.
He Shibi may still be in Cihang Jingzhai's lair, or in the hands of the nun who practiced in the belt of Shi Fei Xuan.
"Hehe, I want to play with the world's heroes between applause, but I'm afraid that Cihang Jingzhai doesn't have the ability!"
Thinking of this, Lin Sha sneered leisurely.
According to the eyeliner report, just a few days before he returned to Luoyang, Cihang Jingzhai's disciple Concubine Xuan had already left Luoyang to travel the world.
After hearing the news, Lin Sha's heart was cold.
Sure enough, the rumors of He's wall that suddenly came out of Luoyang City this time were just the beginning of a series of propaganda methods by Cihang Jingzhai.
Knowing the inside story, Lin Sha naturally sat firmly on the Diaoyutai platform.
He will not be like Wang Shichong, the boss of Luoyang in the original book, who obviously occupies a great geographical advantage, but in the end he only mixes the role of soy sauce.
In order to surprise the restless monks and nuns in Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Monastery, he secretly slowly took out a lot of good things from the armory of the Luoyang Military Department, and he would definitely be able to give the bald donkeys and nuns a big surprise when the time came.
stayed in the Fulin Building until the evening, and then Lin Sha returned to the General Mansion of the Great Commander.
Now that the world is getting more and more chaotic, Xue Ju, the captain of Jincheng Mansion, raised his troops to rebel, claiming to be the overlord of Western Qin, and wanted to dominate the world like Qin Shi Huang, and now he has captured Tianshui and made it the capital.
This is a fierce man, he beat Li Er to the ground in history, if he hadn't hung up inexplicably, how could Li Tang's life be so good?
However, this Xue Ju is not a great character, he can't wait to be the emperor, and he clearly looks down on other rebels in the world, and sooner or later he will become the target of everyone.
Of course, everyone knows that if it weren't for the Wagang army that dragged down the army of Jingshi and Dongdu before, I'm afraid Xue Ju would still not dare to rebel.
In addition, Li Liang, the governor of Liangzhou, also raised troops in Wuwei and proclaimed himself the king of Daliang, and he also stirred up the wind and rain in the Longyou area. Lin Sha didn't care much about this, as long as Guanzhong firmly managed the chaos of Longliang, that place was the root of Guanlong's military lair, the more chaotic the better.
However, this matter is also a headache, in just a few months, there are two more rebel armies with the situation in one place or so, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Sui room is exhausted.
At this juncture, smoke is rising everywhere in the world.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were famous and surnamed heroes in the green forest, and they basically came out.
Jianghuai Du Fuwei, Hebei Dou Jiande, Wagang Li Mi, Shuofang Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou, Longliang Xue Ju and Li Rail, Shandong Wang Bo, etc., a large number of guys who have made a name for themselves in history, basically all of them are out.
"Hehe, this world is getting more and more interesting!"
Receiving the bad news like snowflakes from all over the world, Lin Sha chuckled lightly, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
Now, just waiting for those gate lords to raise their banners and rebel, the entire Sui family can be said to be completely falling apart, even if Yang Guang returns to Luoyang, he will not be able to unite all parties.
What's more, how could those heroes in the north let Yang Guang come back easily?
……
On this day, as soon as Lin Sha finished dealing with Henan's military affairs, a personal soldier came to report, and Dugu Ce, the young master of Dugu Lord, visited him.
Duguce?
Lin Sha raised his eyebrows, his eyes were full of playfulness and motioned to bring someone in, if he remembered correctly, this guy had a very wrong relationship with him.
"General Zhengbei, quickly send people to search for the whereabouts of my uncle!"
As a result, Duguce, the kid, rushed in with a panicked face and an anxious face, and shouted loudly with a panicked face: "Hurry up, my Uncle Ba has lost contact for several days!" ”
"Something happened to Duguba?"
Lin Sha sat steadily behind the desk, motionless and calm as a mountain, ignoring the anxiety on Duguce's face at all, and asked curiously.
"Yes, my Uncle Ba suddenly went out a month ago, and I heard that he went to Huaibei to play!"
Duguce explained with a depressed face, and then hurriedly urged: "Isn't General Lin going to send someone to help me find someone?" ”
"Your Dugu family has a huge power, do you still need to invite me out?"
Lin Sha sneered, unmoved at all, and said indifferently: "General Ben is busy with military affairs, so he doesn't have time to pay attention to such trivial matters!" ”
"You!"
Duguce was so angry that he almost vomited blood, his eyes erupted into flames and glared at Lin Sha, threatening: "General Lin, I know that you have always looked at me unpleasantly, but you have to think clearly about the consequences of this matter!" ”
"Get out, I'm not interested in talking to you!"
Lin Sha suddenly shouted, the sound was rolling like a thunderbolt, and suddenly Dugu Ce, who was threatening with a fierce mouth, was almost stunned, and before he could react, a majestic force came, and his body flew out of the door uncontrollably.
Just as he was dizzy, Lin Sha's disdainful sneer came from Duguce's ears: "What kind of thing, dare to be presumptuous in front of this general!" ”
He finally couldn't hold it back, and spurted out a mouthful of reverse blood with a pop...... (To be continued.) )
