Section 62 Crisis in the Prosperous World
From this time on, Jiang Feng realized that the banquet he had set up this time was actually a set set up for him a long time ago. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Regardless of whether they set up a banquet or not, whether they find a way to catch Li Gu's line or not, it is estimated that these people have already arranged it for themselves.
If they don't go to the doorway, they will quietly guide themselves, and if they don't go to the road, they will push themselves up the road behind their backs, until they have to completely catch themselves up on the road.
It's just ridiculous that he is still looking for a way in his heart, and he doesn't want to think about it, with the pattern of the big beam, if Gu Shijun has no value, he is afraid that he will kneel down when he enters the door, and offer all the gold and silver cakes on his body, and no one will pay attention to it.
Thinking of this, Jiang Feng couldn't help but laugh at himself.
I really underestimate the wisdom of these people in this era, from now on, I don't dare to underestimate the heroes of the world, my own little city doorway, it's really not enough, the little bit of historical trend in my mind may only be able to be barely used in the grand strategy, now, I have to honestly think about how to cater to the trend of this era.
Well, at least from now on, I have finally found my own position, in this case, then tonight's banquet may not be a simple payment, maybe I can get a sum of money back from it.
Looking at Pei Lin's wry smile with a smile, as well as Li Zhi's sneer, and General Li Gu's casual laughter, Lu Gao's right to speak in this scene is even worse than Ju Hui's, and this scene is becoming more and more weird.
"Can't afford to fight? Did I hear me wrong, Master Pei?" there was no anger in Li Zhi's words, as if he was just discussing an insignificant matter.
"In the first battle of Chenzhou, how big was the loss? I'm afraid that our Chongzheng Yuan knows better than your political affairs hall, right? In the first battle of Da Lishui, we lost more than 5,000 men and 2,000 horses; in the first battle of Wanqiu, we lost nearly 3,000 troops, and the Wanqiu city wall was damaged by more than 30 percent, and it was not completely repaired until last year, this is probably our loss, right? Do you mean that Daliang can't even afford this?"
"Master Li, I'm afraid you didn't calculate the account like this. Pei Lin shook his head, but the smell of alcohol slowly subsided, and his tone became heavier.
"Master Li, you are in charge of the staff room, right? I don't know if you have noticed, some changes in the Caizhou army, changes in the battle of Wanqiu, Wanqiu is the rule of Chenzhou Prefecture, the scale and defense of the city wall of the city are not bad, but under the attack of the Caizhou army, the city was almost broken in three days, of course, there is a reason why General Koulong's troops were not enough at that time, but there is a fairly obvious sign, that is, the Caizhou army's magic strength with the army has been greatly improved in the past two years, they concentrated on attacking the soldiers defending the city, and quickly made a breakthrough, it can be said that if it was not for the battle General Koulong poured all his energy and Xuan Qi to fight, Wanqiu City could not be kept at that time, it is really difficult to say。 ”
Pei Lin's words made the faces of Li Zhi and Li Gu change slightly.
The First Battle of Chenzhou has become an inextricable shadow for the Great Liang, and Caizhou snatched a piece of land from the Great Liang, which has never been seen in the battle for hegemony between the feudal domains and the Great Liang for decades.
Although the Liang army successfully defeated the Caizhou army during the battle for the governance of Wanqiu in Chenzhou Prefecture and forced the Caizhou army to retreat across the Da Shui River, as long as the internal well-informed people know that the battle of Chenzhou was a complete defeat for the Great Liang, and it was defeated very badly.
Not only did he lose the land of the three counties, but Kou Long even retired directly after the war.
Of course, there is a factor of Kou Long's age, but the core reason is that Kou Long was too seriously injured in this battle, and the loss of Yuan Force was too great, and he had fallen directly from the Tai Rest Period in the early days of the Heavenly Realm to the Rest Period, and it was basically impossible for him to recover to his peak at his age, and it was very difficult to even recover to the Recuperation Period, and it was a choice of desperation to choose to retire and recuperate.
In addition to these, a more severe and bad reality was also placed in front of Daliang, who faced the embarrassing situation of losing the land of the three counties and actually stopped fighting, and tolerated the reality that the two sides were bounded by Da Lishui, which also shocked the feudal clans.
According to the judgment of the feudal clans, Daliang will never tolerate this kind of thing, maybe he can be defeated, but he will definitely not lose ground, even if he is defeated twice or three times, Daliang should make a comeback, until he recaptures all this that belongs to Daliang, but this time Daliang actually died down.
The Caizhou Yuan clan proved itself in such a way, and through this battle, they also squeezed themselves steadily from a third-rate valve clan with only one state into a group of second-level feudal lords such as the Taining Army, Nanyang, and Tanyue, second only to the top feudal lords such as Hedong, Huaibei, and Huainan.
In a sense, the aggressiveness shown by the Caizhou Yuan clan was undoubtedly more offensive and aggressive, and for the threat of the Great Liang, it was far superior to the likes of Nanyang, and even surpassed the Taining army.
"Lord Li, you just saw our direct losses in the battle of Chenzhou, do you know that in order to stop the Taining army, we had to dig the Bianhe River in the south of Chuqiu, but this made Yucheng and Chuqiu a hundred miles away from Zeguo, and His Royal Highness King Liang had to exempt the four counties in the east of Songzhou from taxes for three years? Nearly 100,000 displaced people in the three counties of Shanfu have been thieves because of this, and the situation in these three counties is still very bad, and in order to suppress these displaced people, until this year, the Chongzheng Yuan still demanded that a large amount of military funds be allocated for the use of the Tianwei army stationed in Songzhou. ”
Pei Lin's words made Li Zhi's face even more ugly, but he still didn't mean to stop it.
"Also, in order to force Hedong to withdraw our troops, you should know better than me how much grain and other supplies we have to pay to the Dangxiang and Tuyuhun people, right? ”
The atmosphere in the arena became more and more embarrassing, Li Zhi's face had become a little pale and annoyed, while Li Gu half-closed his eyes, leaned back slightly, tilted his head, pinched the chopsticks with his fingers, and gently tapped on the table.
"Master Pei, is this the attitude of your political affairs hall?" Li He couldn't help it anymore, as a direct scholar of the Chongzheng Academy, although he couldn't say that he could fully represent the attitude of the Chongzheng Yuan, but in the face of the other party's aggressive posture, he had to correct the name of the military.
"Master Li, you know better than me what the attitude of the political hall is, I will definitely not represent the attitude of the political hall today, I just want to clarify something, so that everyone can figure it out, if you don't understand what to do next, I'm afraid it will be dangerous. Pei Lin said with a wry smile.
"Lord Li, don't misunderstand Lord Li. Li Gu, who hadn't spoken much, finally opened his eyes and talked.
"I think Master Pei said this, there must be his intentions, Master Pei, do you say it? We can sit together today, and Jiang Yuhou from Gushi, it will definitely not be to drink this competition alcohol, and it will not be to grind his mouth, everyone weigh it, the current situation, Li does not dare to say that he is dedicated to being the main beam, but at least I know the severity!"
Seeing that everyone present had a contemplative look on their faces, holding the wine glass in their hands and shaking it slowly, Li Gu's tone became heavier.
"Daliang's current predicament is self-evident, some people are still lustful, some people are still drunk, some people are low-eyed, they can't see the current situation clearly, and some people only care about their pockets, but they haven't thought that the skin will be attached to it? ! Hmph, I may be a little guilty of this, but I still want to say that in our Bianliang City, some people have forgotten how this country was defeated, and their eyes are staring at those few dollars, and the things left by their ancestors are about to be destroyed by them, and it is really time to clean it up. ”
The words of the military leaders are naturally not as subtle and euphemistic as the literati, and they are straightforward, this is the style of the military leaders, whether it is for the civil servants or the military leaders to each other, there is no need to beat around the bush, real knives and guns, and they come happily.
Although he knew that Li Gu's words were not aimed at him, Pei Lin's face was still a little hot, these military leaders were all a bunch of vulgar military ruffians, even after three generations, but he had to admit that these military ruffians still had sharp eyes and could see the current predicament of Daliang.
"Master Pei, I know what you want to say, that's right, I also know that Daliang's treasury is empty now, and this is the case in Bianliang City, like the treasury of Luoyang, Xuzhou, and Songzhou, but this has become a reason for a group of people to want to take Puzhou?" Li Gu sneered contemptuously at the corner of his mouth, "Aren't you afraid of the Hedong Iron Cavalry now?"
The sharp and scathing words made Pei Lin difficult to answer for a while, and in fact, he did not approve of playing Puzhou.
Obviously, the Liang army does not have the conditions for a full-scale war with the Jin army at present, just as the Jin army is unwilling to go to war with the Liang army, which will only benefit the surrounding major forces.
But if Da Liang wants to take Puzhou, it will really force the Hedong Jin army to fight to the death with Da Liang.
Without the benefit of Puzhou Salt Pond, Hedong would not be able to sustain its huge expenses, and it would be better to die than to be starved to death so slowly.
The reason why it is difficult to complain in front of these people is that there is no way.
Every big war has to make the household of the political hall and the household department of Shangshu Province quarrel, and the Chongzheng Yuan gang only cares about the money, but they don't care where the money comes from.
And the military leaders don't care about these things, just reach out and ask for it when they run out, and if they don't give it, it may wreak havoc in the locality, and if they don't make this problem clear to these people, they will dare to spread their hands and ignore the chaos.
Uh, brothers, a little harder, is it so difficult to ask for a few monthly passes? The location of the new book monthly pass is too ugly. (To be continued.) )
