Jiang Feng's assassination attack on the bank of the Bianhe River undoubtedly sounded the alarm for many people, from the right and wrong of being involved in Bianliang City, it is destined that Jiang Feng's trip to Bianliang will not be lonely.
Especially when I heard that Jiang Feng was even more like a lion asking for 30,000 yuan of materials and money and silver aid, you can imagine how big a wave this news will cause when it spreads in the Chongzheng Yuan and the Political Affairs Hall tomorrow, and Jiang Feng will become a hot news figure in Bianliang City in two days.
30,000 guan, the tax revenue of the entire Liang a year is only about 6 million guan, which has to be considered a good year, and a slightly worse year is only 5 million guan, and Jiang Feng actually offered 50,000 guan support, which is simply too exaggerated.
Daliang's finances have always been tight, most of this revenue has been eaten up by huge military spending, and some new taxes have to be levied almost every few years, which is the main source of the local displacement and the rampant banditry.
The gentry and landlords could always find a way to pass on these taxes to the peasants, and once they encountered a bad year, the peasants could not make ends meet by selling their children and daughters, so it was a natural thing to become homeless or even bandits.
But if Daliang doesn't maintain such a huge army, the military pressure from Hedong, Taining and Huaibei forced Daliang to do so, and now there is a more ferocious Caizhou that is better than Taining and Huaibei, which has added a little pressure to the already stretched finances.
The loss of the city and the loss of land in the first battle of Chenzhou has had a great impact on the original military superiority of the Great Liang, not only the land of the three counties, but the unbroken golden body of the Great Liang that has never lost the city and the land has been broken, which has also greatly affected the stability of the Great Liang regime.
This is also the main reason why the Chongzheng Yuan has been fighting hard in the past three years, and even deliberately allowing the ant thieves to run rampant, the Chongzheng Yuan would rather pay a huge price to launch a war against Caizhou, because this is related to the stability of the Liang regime, and it is necessary to show its military superiority over Caizhou in order to win back the hearts and minds of the people.
And Jiang Feng's Gushi Army appeared at this opportunity node, and for the Gushi Army that can add a few points of insurance to the victory of Daliang's battle against Caizhou, Daliang is willing to pay some necessary costs for this.
"San Lang, what do you think?" Coming out of the hostel, Cui Shang's thoughts had slowly become clear.
In the long run, the Gushi Army is bound to become a nail in the arm between the Great Liang in Huaibei, Huainan and Jiangnan, and the role of this nail is to contain Caizhou now, and in the future, it will even restrain Huaibei and become an important pillar for the Great Liang to deal with Caizhou and Huaibei.
Sometimes a nail in the back plays a bigger role than a knife in the front, and even if he doesn't make any moves, you have to reserve a considerable amount of force to prevent it, and that's the role of the nail.
Of course, Da Liang's expectations for Gu Shijun probably don't stop at just a nail, if the nail can develop into a knife, then the threat to Caizhou and Huaibei will be greater, and it may even make these two families unable to invest more strength to compete with Da Liang in the future.
Only at that time can Daliang really free up his body and mind to compete with the people of Shatuo in Hedong.
However, this is just the most ideal state, Caizhou and Huaibei, Taining Army, Hedong of course will not see this, they will also do everything possible to counteract, Cui Shang even feels that with the current complex interest group game within Daliang, I am afraid it will be difficult to do that step, but no matter what, the existence of the Gushi Army is beneficial to Daliang.
For Caizhou and Huaibei, to solve this threat, it is most effective to remove the nail of Gushi, which depends on the wits and strength of all parties, and this will even involve the Huainan Yang family and the Ehuang Du family in the south.
It is conceivable that the next few years in this land will be changing, and it will be the most exciting to be able to participate in it.
Therefore, now Daliang will not be stingy to vigorously support the Gushi Army, otherwise the generals like Yang Kan, Guo Tai, and Ding Man, who are not reused and played in Bianliang City, will not be so active in Gushi.
These people have family influence behind them, even if they are young and can't see the situation clearly, but there are many scheming people in the family behind them, of course they know the complex and treacherous situation inside Daliang now, and they also know the significance of Gushi to Daliang.
Maybe some descendants are not suitable to join Gushi, but some relatives and friends of the children of concubines and side branches are undoubtedly a very suitable opportunity to join Gushijun.
For a wealthy family, it is necessary to bet on some emerging forces, and even some old clans are quietly speculating on hostile forces.
"Me?" Chang Kun knew that he couldn't avoid this question, Cui Shang was his closest friend, and Cui Shang would also go to Gushi to follow Jiang Feng, a guy who had known him for just three days, although Chang Kun was also very optimistic about Jiang Feng, but he still needed to observe, "My idea is to take a second look, and you also know that my age and body are not suitable for going to Gushi immediately, and I thought I could help you more in Bianliang." ”
"San Lang, I don't think it stops there, right?" Cui Shang's eyes were a little clearer, "You don't like Gushi?"
"If I don't think I'm going to support you, but I'm a little worried. Chang Kun pondered for a moment, "Bai Ling, Jiang Feng's position in the Gushi Army is not stable, this is a big problem, Yang Kan, Guo Tai and Ding Man and they go, it may make this situation more serious, you may also be aware that the Gushi Army is still in a stage of reconstruction, the foundation is of course their original Gushi Army, but there is still a Shenzhou Army to join, now Yang Kan and they go, Jiang Feng out of the pressure of strengthening the Gushi Army as soon as possible, will definitely let Yang Kan and them also take the lead in forming an army, I estimate that it will be at least two or three battalions, if the Gushi Army wants not to be easily defeated by the Caizhou Army, at least there must be about 5,000 troops to form combat effectiveness, and now the Gushi Army is far from enough。 ”
"Are you worried that Jiang Feng won't be able to control this army that is too complicated?" Cui Shang also frowned, that would also be what he would face after he arrived at Gushi, a divided army was quite dangerous, and it was impossible to resist the attack of the Caizhou army.
"Jiang Feng is not simple, but controlling and exerting the combat effectiveness of this army may be a difficult problem to test him. ”
Of course, Chang Kun also knew that Jiang Feng was not simple, otherwise he would not have been able to dare to resist the persecution of the Yuan clan with an insignificant county army, and he also repelled the ant thieves who were ten times their size, and now he entered Bianliang single-handedly, asking for assistance from Daliang in a big way, all of which showed that Jiang Feng's mental wisdom was by no means commensurate with his age.
However, the outstanding military ability does not mean that he can fully control such a complex and forming army in terms of political wisdom and skill, and if he cannot control it from the beginning of the formation of an army, then it will bring great variables to this force in the future.
However, Chang Kun also vaguely felt that Jiang Feng dared to do this, and he was still confident and sure enough, but this was indeed too incommensurate with his age and resume.
A child of the Shu clan, who has been in the academy for a few years and has been a scout for a few years, can he be reborn?
If it is said that martial arts cultivation can be called a genius, but in terms of political wisdom and skill, there is absolutely no shortcut, even if it is from a prestigious family, it needs to be polished and grown in the bloody wind.
But Jiang Feng's situation completely subverted everyone's imagination, and Chang Kun was even more difficult to accept, he was already planning to find a chance to have a good chat with his junior brother and understand how this Jiang Erlang, who didn't know where to come from, had such a skill.
Chang Kun has no ill will towards Jiang Feng, and even he has some special expectations for Jiang Feng.
Da Liang is indeed very strong now, whether it is military or overall strength, but Da Liang is more like an old man, the old pattern has been stereotyped, and it is difficult to accommodate fresh blood to enter, which he realized when he was cut out of the Guangsheng Army five years ago and he was squeezed out.
Now the beam can no longer accommodate outsiders, just because he was born in the White Horse Temple?
In addition to those Jiangmen Clans who followed Lao Liang King to fight the world, how many newcomers are now able to occupy a place in the Great Liang Army? Even those side branches of the Jiangmen Clan are difficult to get many opportunities, let alone outsiders like themselves.
All kinds of chaotic thoughts plagued Chang Kun, but his mouth did not fall: "Maybe Caizhou's battle against Gushi is also a test for Erlang and them and the Gushi Army, and if they survive this hurdle, maybe this Gushi Army can be tempered." ”
"But San Lang, you haven't said what you're going to do?" Cui Shang still didn't give up, he really didn't understand what Chang Kun thought, "Didn't you always want to leave Bianliang to seek a career?" Gushi is such a good opportunity, although there is a lot of risk involved, but let's fight together, it's better than fighting in this Bianliang City, right?"
"Bai Ling, I said, I want to see how far Jiang Feng can take you, although I am also very confident in you, but you should understand that the current situation of Gushi is still very dangerous, even if you survive this pass, Jiang Feng will face a lot of troubles and challenges, so maybe I stay in Bianliang City and can help you more." After thinking about it, Chang Kuncai said again: "I may not be able to see it now, but Jiang Feng may also realize it, and you will know it in the future." (To be continued.) )
