When Zuo Che'er promised to help the people under the command of Hu cross the Yellow River to deliver information to Yunzhou, he did not know what this news meant.

At present, the imperial court judged the route of the Beihu army to attack the Central Plains, and the line of Weizhou was judged, with the military city of Yangliucheng as the core of the competition.

And the information of Yipinlou is to inform the Metropolitan Governor's Office and the imperial court through Yunzhou that the real direction of King Zuoxian of Beihu is Yunzhou.

At this moment, Zhao Ning's cadre in Yunzhou is Chen Yi, the big boss of the Changhe Boat Company, and Zuo Che'er helped pass on the news, and he was told by Yipinlou at the first time.

The reason why Chen Yi was able to learn this secret was because of his different identities on the one hand, and on the other hand, the Beihu army was about to attack Yunzhou, and he would inevitably participate in the war.

As soon as the news left Yunzhou City, spread to the Dadu Governor's Mansion, and spread to the imperial court, Chen Yi was already sitting in the hall of the Yunzhou Yun family.

In the seventh year of Qianfu, Zhao Ning went to Yunzhou, destroyed the local Haoqiang led by here, and supported the Yun family with a pure family style to replace it.

Over the years, the prestige of the Yun family in Yunzhou has been unmatched, and the relationship between the two sides has become closer and closer.

"The real target of the Hu people's attack is actually our Yunzhou?" Yun Yong, the head of the Yun family, although he was surprised after listening to Chen Yi's words, he was not too surprised.

Yunzhou and its surrounding areas are the hub connecting Qilu and the Central Plains, and Qilu is the flank of the Central Plains.

Yun Yong, as the head of the Yun family, is not a nerd, so he naturally has a basic understanding of these situations.

"Whether Beihu attacked the Central Plains directly from Weizhou to Bianliang, or cut off the flanks of the Central Plains first, itself is between the two, no matter which road is chosen, there is a reason, and it cannot be wrong. ”

The tea was at hand, but Chen Yi was in no mood to drink it, at present, the main force of the Wang division was arranged around Bianliang, and there were not many soldiers and horses in the direction of Yunzhou.

It is conceivable that it will be a tragic and bloody battle, and before the imperial court completes the deployment of troops and the reinforcements of the Wang Division arrive, whether Yunzhou can be saved is related to their lives.

Chen Yi continued, "At present, there are not many Wang divisions in Yunzhou, once the big war starts, in a short period of time, there are nearly 200,000 troops that can be gathered by the defense, and Yunzhou can't talk about the emptiness of troops.

"However, the Hu people are strong and strong, their combat power is extraordinary, and there are many cultivators, if we can't be fully prepared, it is difficult to guarantee that we can hold out to the help of the Wang Shi around Bianliang. When the war is unfavorable......"

Chen Yi didn't continue, Yun Yong already understood what he meant.

If Beihu captures Yunzhou, then it can rush to attack Bianliang by land, avoid the shortcomings of its own poor water warfare, and form an echo with the army starting from Weizhou; retreat can hold the throat of Yunzhou, attack the land of Qilu, stabilize the rear of the army, and ensure logistics supply for the advance to the Central Plains in the coming day.

This is the general trend.

From a small point of view, once Beihu captures Yunzhou, the Yun family will inevitably suffer large-scale losses from the Yipinlou and the Changhe boat here, whether it is a cultivator or various interests, and the Yun family will even lose its foundation.

Therefore, no matter how you look at it, Chen Yi and Yun Yong must go all out to help the Wang Shi of Yunzhou and block the early offensive of the Beihu army.

"Although before this, the imperial court's judgment on the direction of Beihu's use of troops was Yangliucheng, but since Beihu occupied Hebei, Yunzhou has been reorganized

Armament warfare.

"Now Yunzhou is not only tightly fortified, but also the civil forces have been mobilized a lot, if the Hu people attack, Yunzhou can deal with it at any time, as long as we do our own thing, the situation should not be too bad. ”

Yun Yong touched his beard and groaned.

He has a lot of confidence.

This is because after seven years of Qianfu, the power of the Yun family has developed greatly, and now there are not only cultivators in the late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm in the clan, but also many young Junyan have also broken through to the Yuan Shen Realm and are strong.

Not only that, the Yun family has been upholding justice for the common people all these years, so that the big guys can not be oppressed by various powers, and now in Yunzhou, it is an existence that responds to all calls and has a high reputation.

Moreover, the Yun family and the small and medium-sized Haoqiang in Yunzhou also get along well.

Yun Yong is confident that even if the war comes, as long as the Yun family takes the lead in contributing people and dares to stand where Daqi needs it, with the current situation of Yunzhou's justice and simple people's customs, the people will not be stingy with their financial and material resources, and the young and strong people in the city will also go forward to fight for their family and country.

Chen Yi naturally knew where Yun Yong's confidence came from, but he still had great concerns:

"During the war, it was the government that really dominated the situation. It is not enough for us to do a good job, we also need the government to win the hearts of the people and gather the people's strength. ”

Hearing Chen Yi say this, Yun Yong groaned.

If it is placed in normal times, with the current prestige of the Yun family, the Assassin Mansion will have to give a few points.

However, during the war, because of the edict of the imperial court, the authority of the government was greatly strengthened, and most of the manpower and material resources of the people had to obey the mobilization of the government.

The so-called urgency is nothing more than that.

In this case, now the Yun family can't compete with the government.

Although logically speaking, if the Yunzhou government wants to defend the city, it needs to rely on and rely on local powerful forces, and it is inseparable from the support of the local snakes in Yunzhou, which is also a large part of the source of the city's defense force, but the truth is always just the truth, and there are always all kinds of intrigues and dirty things in actual affairs.

In Yunzhou, the previous government was constrained by the Yun family, from the assassin history to the small officials, and they may have accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction with the Yun family.

Now that the government has greatly increased its power, will they want to regain their ground and reassert their unchallengeable authority?

"What does Brother Chen mean is that in order to get Yunzhou to work together, I have to go and talk to Thorn Shi Haosheng?" Yun Yong quickly figured out Chen Yi's subtext.

Chen Yi nodded: "Of course. But if it's just that simple, that's it. The question is, if there are a lot of things that the government is doing wrong, what are we going to do?"

Yun Yong was stunned, "What is Brother Chen referring to?"

He knew that Yipinlou and Changhe Boat Company were deep in the market, and they knew a lot about the people, especially the situation at the bottom, and there was a lot of news that the Yun family could not get in touch with.

Chen Yi didn't answer directly, "Brother Yun, let's go around the city with me." ”

......

Chen Jinghe, the director of Cangcao, Yunzhou Thorn Mansion, has been proud of the spring breeze recently.

There is no other reason, after Hebei was captured by the Hu people, and Yunzhou entered a wartime state, in order to meet the upcoming war, the Yunzhou Assassin Mansion called on the people to support the government to prepare for war, and received a great response.

The way of support is very simple, nothing more than one sentence: those who have money will contribute, and those who have power will contribute.

The contribution is not under the control of Chen Jinghe, those who volunteer to repair the city defense, carry the equipment to defend the city, and build a new arrow tower watchtower, without the need for the government to send work

The young and strong people of Qian have nothing to do with Chen Jinghe, the head of Cangcao.

He is in charge of the warehouse of the Assassin's Mansion, that is, the treasury, and what needs to be docked is naturally the materials and money donated by the people to the government to prepare for war.

During this period of time, Chen Jinghe was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut as he could not have seen the amount of silver in the account book gradually increase to an unimaginable extent, and look at the piles of cloth and grain in the warehouse, so high that they all became the shape of mountains.

"The people of Yunzhou are simple, and the people in the market are very good, knowing that when a strong enemy is coming, if you want to keep your home and protect your family, you have to rely on the government. ”

The deputy who accompanied Chen Jinghe to inspect the warehouse, seeing that the smile on Chen Jinghe's face had never dissipated, he flattered and said everything that was appropriate for the situation.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jinghe was still full of spring breeze just now, but his face suddenly changed, he snorted arrogantly, and said with some dissatisfaction: "It's just a matter of hundreds of thousands of gold!"

"There are 100,000 people in Yunzhou, and on average, they don't donate much. These Hu people have been killed at the doorstep, and those guys are still unwilling to spend all their wealth to help the government, don't you know the truth that the skin will not be attached to the hair?

"Once Yunzhou is conquered, what use will be the things they left behind? What a group of short-sighted and unreasonable fools!"

The deputy didn't expect that Chen Jinghe would think like this, and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. In his opinion, the money donated by the people of Yunzhou is incredible.

"Lord Chen, Zhang Fang's envoy sent someone here, saying that the weather is getting warmer now, and they are still wearing cotton jackets and no spring clothes, hoping to receive some cloth donated by the people for emergency. "A small official came to report.

When the deputy heard this, he was about to take the initiative to share chores for Chen Jinghe, and went to prepare cloth for Wang Shi, who came from afar to help the king who was defending the city in Yunzhou, but Chen Jinghe was stunned:

"What kind of defense envoy, when the treasury belongs to his family, he wants whatever he wants? How can this be reasonable! Let them roll as far as they want! This is a place where anyone can come?"

The little official was scolded in vain, and although he felt wronged, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to take the order and leave.

The deputy hesitated for a moment, "My lord, these materials are all donated by the people, and they are supposed to be used for the war, so make some cloth for Zhang Fangfang......"

Over the past few days, there have been more and more gold and silver treasures in the treasury, but they are only in and out, Chen Jinghe has never released a single star, and the deputy has long been puzzled, so he took the opportunity to probe the other party's tone.

"When these things enter the treasury, how to use them, their own officials have the final say, if others want to ask for them, are they in charge of Cangcao, or are they in charge of Cangcao?" Chen Jinghe coldly interrupted his deputy's words.

His gaze fell on the mountains of fabric, and that gaze was like looking at his own private property.

After so many years as the head of Cangcao, he has never seen the treasury so full, and there has never been a moment when he feels that the power in his hands is so strong, how can he allow others to take it away if they want to?

Looking at the deputy's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Chen Jinghe chuckled, "These days to prepare for war, the whole Assassin Mansion is very hard.

"You go and get 10,000 taels of silver and 1,000 horses of cloth and distribute them to officials at all levels, which is considered a reward for the big guys. I've already discussed this matter with Lord Thorn, so I'll do it right away. ”

The deputy was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses.

When the people donated these things, they thought that they would be used in war, but they never imagined that when the gold and silver materials entered the pockets of the government, they would become the welfare of the officials, and they had little to do with the soldiers who were about to fight desperately and bloodily.

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
