Chapter 240: If he doesn't beg for peace, then fight until he begs for peace

Xiangyang, Liufu.

Kuai Liang's face was a little anxious, and after the report, he came quickly, and said to Liu Biao, who was feeding the birds: "Lord, woe! ”

"Chu Feng is here?" Liu Biao stopped his movements and asked urgently.

"Count, it doesn't count!" Kuai Liang nodded: "Now except for the cities near Xiangyang, the rest of the cities, Chu Feng's new coins have been flooded. ”

"At first, they rushed to buy grain in our territory and raised it to a very high price, and now they are selling grain, cloth and other things needed by the people at very low prices."

"Although the price has been calmed down, the premise must be exchanged for new currency to buy, and now most of the people in the country have held it, and even many families have made profits from it!"

Kuai Liang frowned, this move was too ruthless.

Although it didn't seem to have much impact on them at first glance, and even helped stabilize the market price, it was extremely dangerous for the economic lifeline to be controlled by Chu Feng now!

Liu Biao's brows gradually became gloomy.

"Lord, this new currency has been promoted for so long, but no one has reported it for a long time, obviously...... There are already people below who are in the same league as Chu Feng and have accepted bribes! ”

Kuai Liang clenched his fists, which was extremely harmful to his control of the Jingzhou regime, and he had to mention it.

"Smack!"

The bird food in his hand fell directly to the ground, Liu Biao's eyebrows were upside down, his eyebrows were fierce, he didn't expect Chu Fengbing to come, and a wave of bribes came first!

Moreover, the promotion of the new currency is like pinching his throat, if he really wants to fight, Chu Feng will directly draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle, and the resentment of the people in the territory will inevitably boil.

"Zirou, in your opinion, what should you do?" Liu Biao said in a deep voice with his arms behind his back, obviously, he was also pondering how to respond.

"Stop the loss in time, the economic lifeline must not be grasped by Chu Feng, and his subordinates think that they should immediately strictly check the exchange of new currencies and open the grain shops,"

Kuai Liang frowned and said.

"But you also said that most of the people own it, so won't this stir up resentment among the people?" Liu Biao was a little worried, and he was also thinking about what would happen if food prices skyrocketed again after containment!

After all, although Chu Feng's coins are used now, the price of grain is stable, and it is difficult to say that as long as the amount of Jingzhou's new coins is sufficient, he can also approve of this thing.

As long as the grain merchants under his command also approve, the new currency is still in circulation, which is also a good thing.

"Lord, at this moment, you should cut through the mess with a quick knife and expel it directly to prevent deeper infiltration, otherwise Jingzhou will be in danger," Kuai Liang said solemnly.

"Zirou, don't worry!" Liu Biao raised his hand, he knew that the Kuai family was in control of all parts of Jingzhou, and it would be good if he used Chu Feng to set up Kuailiang.

Bent down to pick up some bird food, fed the parrot two more mouthfuls, and asked, "Zirou, you said that if we exchange more new coins, so that we can replace new coins under our rule, how about it?" ”

"My lord, no, isn't this luring a wolf into the house? Once Chu Feng moves some hands and feet, wouldn't it be ......" Kuai Liang said anxiously.

"No, no, no, the five-baht coin market is chaotic, it should have been eliminated a long time ago, as long as we have enough new coins, when the time comes, the merchants will recognize the new coins, and we can completely get rid of Chu Feng's control, right?"

"In this way, firstly, we can flatten the prices and grievances of the people, and secondly, we can also reduce the impact of the five-baht money on our Jingzhou, you must know that in recent years, the princes from all over the country have used the five-baht money to collect a lot of our grain, grass and ordnance!"

Liu Biao's face was a little tired, before he was stable in Jingzhou, and all the princes were using five baht coins to collect in Jingzhou, which also made him extremely distressed.

So much so that many people don't trust the five-baht coin anymore.

Now Chu Feng's move may not be a bad thing for him!

"But my lord, even if it is exchanged for new coins, although other princes can't harm us, Chu Feng can also print more coins to harm our Jingzhou!"

"This is definitely a palliative treatment! And Chu Feng is eyeing Jingzhou, absolutely unacceptable. Kuai Liang hurriedly admonished.

"Hehe, isn't using five baht to cure the symptoms but not the root cause? Chu Feng Yangzhou replaced countless five-baht coins with new coins, and these coins could also loot the entire Jingzhou as before. ”

"Now, if you change the new coin, at most, only Chu Feng will loot it alone, isn't this a good thing? What's more, in order to stabilize domestic prices, Chu Feng invested a lot,"

"If he dares to put a large amount of new coins in my Jingzhou, it will only damage his own reputation, and we can also use the new coins to harvest in Yangzhou, which is a loss of the relationship."

The corners of Liu Biao's mouth were hooked, and he chuckled.

To him, this seemed like good news.

"My lord, even so, how can I get enough new coins?" Kuai Liang frowned, seeing that Liu Biao was obviously very interested in Chu Feng's new coin.

"Hehe, I'm happy to see it, aren't they promoting price stability now? Then let them continue, but the official should not come forward for the time being, so as not to startle the snake. ”

Liu Biao raised his hand, obviously thinking a lot.

"But..."

"Okay, don't say more, get out of here!" Liu Biao waved his hand.

"No!" Kuai Liang had no choice but to retreat.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

The fourth year of Jian'an, summer, May.

Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao worshiped the world, comforted the ancestors, and asked Chen Lin to write a letter to beg the thief to spread all over the world, and his soldiers were 100,000 soldiers and 10,000 horses.

A total of 110,000 troops, known as a million troops, waved south, and the sword pointed directly at Xuchang.

even threatened to end the war before the winter, and return the Han Dynasty to peace and the Son of Heaven.

As for his subordinates, Wenwu, his order was given to take charge of the military, Guo Tufeng, Ji Xun, Tian Feng and other auxiliary strategies, and Yan Liangwen Chou as the vanguard general, and Zhang He, Gao Lan, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong and other generals under his command.

It can be said that there are thousands of warriors!

It's just that before the promotion, Tian Feng was sent into the dungeon by Yuan Shao because of disobedience, and the strategy proposed by Tian Feng was to fight a protracted war, repair the military internally, and connect heroes externally.

And to compete with the elite along the Yellow River, and at the same time divide the surprise troops to attack the left road, Cao Cao's reinforcement will attack the right road, in short, it is to avoid the battle, but Cao Cao has to fight.

Facts have proved that there is indeed a shortage of food in Cao Cao's army.

If it is according to Tian Feng's plan, once Cao Cao is short of food, the three armies will be defeated, and when the time comes, with Yuan Shao's fame, he can quickly occupy Yan, Yu, Xu, and Si.

In this way, who in the world can rival Yuan Shao?

Of course, having said that, even if Cao Cao is defeated and Yuan Shao owns eight states, it is still difficult for the Yuan family to dominate the world, one is that Yuan Shao's ability is not enough.

One is that the struggle for the heirs is too fierce, and he is bound to become Qin II.

In this battle, Yuan Shao personally marched to Liyang, and at the same time sent Wen Chou to lead his troops to seize the Baima artery along the Yellow River, and marched to besiege Liu Yan, a general assigned by Cao Cao.

And Cao Cao was stuck in Yanjin,

At this point, the famous chapter of "Battle of Guandu" in history was officially opened.

The difference is that Cao Cao did not have Liu Bei backstabbing Xuzhou, did not have Guan Yu's army of Zhan Yan Liang, and did not have so many generals to assist, but there was less Xuzhou to lose.

There are more Sun Ce and his generals.

There were more troops than in the same period, more food than in the same period, more stable under rule than in the same period, slightly fewer generals than in the same period, and the great enemy was much stronger than in the same period.

On the positive side, Cao Cao is not weaker than the same period, but only stronger.

Overall, this battle is still difficult for Cao Cao to fight.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

Jian'an four years, mid-May.

Yuan Shao's general Wen Chou led a partial army to besiege Baima, and Liu Yan was in a hurry many times.

In the end, Cao Cao asked his generals to stay in the Yanjin camp, and personally led the white horse to ride the white horse quickly, trying to relieve the white horse siege, and all of this is somewhat similar to history.

It's just that, after all, the trajectory of the wheels still affects a lot.

β€”β€”

And at this time,

Yangzhou, Hefei.

On a May day, the weather is neither hot nor cold, and the sun is not so irritating at high altitude, and many farmers are weeding in the fields, shedding drops of sweat.

And Hefei City, a number of bazaars can be described as busy, the flow of people is like weaving, there are families from all over the world, there are wanderers who come to visit,

There are also businessmen from the north and the south, and the most of them are ordinary people who have some spending power.

Because bridges and roads are being built nationwide, in short, countless jobs have been created so that the people can increase their income, and it is also for the people to have more money.

In fact, Chu Feng is making money by spending money on the people, and only by letting the economy pull up can he flow more and more coins to the market in the future.

Boosting domestic demand is what is most needed at the moment.

Of course, agriculture is also a top priority, but he has a variety of vegetable seeds, as well as potatoes that will be cultivated for generations.

Although potatoes are wasteland, they multiply quickly, and according to the current doubling, in a few years, there should be no shortage of food in the territory.

Cover the curve!

In the general house, there are countless correspondence documents.

In the first place, Chu Feng corrected the documents very quickly, and in the past half a year, Chu Feng has a good understanding of various internal affairs, and he is handy in Bangcun, which has Lu Su and Erzhang.

And Yangzhou is now in the stage of rapid development!

"Lord, Jingzhou letter!"

At this moment, a ministry will come from outside the house.

Chu Feng took the letter, the letter looked very ordinary, including the words written on it, it was also written by someone else, and it had nothing to do with the military situation at all.

Especially when I opened the envelope, it was all some friends reminiscing, and the content of the story was mediocre, but every word was marked with a pinyin character.

These pinyin characters are connected to the content.

This is also what Chu Feng has cultivated for more than half a year, the dark department, mainly responsible for intelligence and camouflage, and now most of the people in charge of operation in Jingzhou are merchants, but they are interspersed with the dark department.

The information in the shadows is very ordinary, but outsiders can't crack it, or they can't see the clues at all, and even if this kind of letter is robbed, they can't see anything.

"My lord, what does the letter say?" Lu Su frowned.

"It's strange, Liu Biao actually connived at the development of the situation, and it seems that he has no intention of stopping it!" Chu Feng put the letter aside and frowned.

According to his understanding, Liu Biao will definitely not let it develop.

Are you thinking too much?

"Lord, maybe it's too late for Liu Biao to be happy! This coin can help him directly ask for the restraint of the five-baht coin, and it can stabilize the people,"

Lu Su chuckled, he had mentioned it before,

"Hehe, it's a bit interesting, isn't he afraid that I will launch countless new coins to loot Jingzhou?" Chu Feng chuckled and asked with a bit of curiosity.

"Lord, there doesn't seem to be much difference between being robbed by five baht and being looted by new coins, right? What's more, the new currency is tied to our Yangzhou itself, so he is naturally not worried. ”

"It's a big deal, take the money we launched to Yangzhou in exchange for supplies!" Zhang Zhao brushed his beard and analyzed it carefully, at least he didn't see a big problem.

"Hehe, naΓ―ve!"

"Then the money I launched will be exchanged for supplies under my rule? Can't I give money to the people under my rule? As long as I want, I can cut the price and money at will! ”

Chu Feng squinted, this set of methods was a skilled horse played by the old ugly in later generations.

Relying on himself to be the currency boss, he cuts leeks around the world every day, although it has an impact on his country, but he can send money to the people by himself.

"Thisβ€”" the three pondered.

Thinking about it carefully, Chu Feng's layout was too deep.

However, since Tao Qian is obedient, he will seize all parts of Jingbei as soon as possible, increase the exchange ratio, and find ways to harvest other states and counties with the exchanged money. For example, the territory of Zhang Xian in Jingnan. ”

Chu Feng immediately arranged.

"No!" Lu Su nodded: "Lord, won't you capture Jingzhou for the time being?" ”

"Don't worry, Zhang Xian won't be able to die for a while and a half, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao won't be able to tell the winner for a while and a half, and maximizing interests is what we need to do."

The corners of Chu Feng's mouth were hooked, and he sneered.

"In this way, arrange for Zhang Xian's cronies to blow the wind, and let him send someone to ask for help with me as soon as possible, so as to make a fortune, otherwise it will not be forced to go directly to fight more."

"Remember, money is not a problem, a lot of bribes, I want the whole territory of Jingzhou, not to divide it with Zhang Xian, and when Liu Biao is defeated, Zhang Xian will not have to live."

Chu Feng's eyes were full of ruthlessness.

"No!" Lu Su nodded,

He was really in awe and awe of Chu Feng.

"Oh yes, what's going on with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao?" Chu Feng took a sip of the teacup and asked.

"Back to the lord, Yuan Shao has gathered an army of 110,000 troops, known as one million, and is now gathering in Liyang, ready to seize Yanjin and cross the river to the south at any time."

"However, Yanjin is controlled by Cao Cao, thinking that he is worried that Cao Cao will attack him halfway, so he sent Wen Chou to lead his troops to cross the river and attack Baima in an attempt to flank him."

"The specific battle situation is still unknown, but in addition to Cao Cao's troops in Xuchang, Yecheng, Ruyin, and other places, his frontal strength is about 40,000, the left flank is 5,000, the right flank is 8,000, and the front is less than 30,000."

"In this battle, Yuan Shao, whether it is soldiers, horses, grain and grass, or armor and equipment, is far from being comparable to Cao Cao, and I really don't know how Cao Cao can win this battle."

Lu Su got up and gestured to the map next to him.

30,000 to 110,000, nearly four times the difference, and the grain, grass and ordnance are far inferior to the opposite, there are tens of thousands of iron cavalry on the opposite side, in the plain area on the south bank of the Yellow River, the iron cavalry is the sharp weapon of the army.

The gap in hard power is so big, no one knows how Cao Cao won.

"It's all like this, and you haven't sent anyone to ask me for peace?" Chu Feng laughed playfully, even if he was facing Yuan Shao now, he would be at a disadvantage.

"Not for the time being, I'm afraid Cao Cao doesn't plan to ask for peace, he let Yu Ban lead his troops to garrison Ruyin, obviously to beware of the lord." Zhang Hong answered.

"Not going to please and? Hehe," Chu Feng chuckled, and then his expression was instantly cold, and he shouted: "Then call me, and fight until he asks for peace!" ”

"Do you really think I can't cure him? Hmph,"

"Order, Taishi Ci Legion, Lu Meng Legion, and my headquarters Legion, plus Gao Shun's fallen camp, a total of 35,000 people will go north with my troops!"

"If he doesn't beg for peace, then fight until he begs for peace!" Chu Feng's voice echoed throughout the General's Mansion, and the hearts of several Wenchen were tense when they heard it.
