Chapter 490: The Choice of a Good General

Although Liu Wei is more stable than before, and he knows the direction he should work towards, he still can't completely find his position.

As Liu Jian said to Liu Bei, Liu Jian chose the wrong opponent from the beginning.

With his vision and knowledge reserves, as well as his plans for the future, a thousand Liu Debates are useless in front of Liu Jian.

But this is not to blame Liu Wei, because this is indeed the unique advantage of the traverser, and ordinary people cannot change it.

It is impossible for anyone to really plant a field for 20 years in Guanzhong.

Dong Zhuo saw that Liu Wei was so anxious, and he actually understood him very well in his heart.

Liu Wei is in a hurry, and he is also in a hurry.

Liu Wei hopes to show the world that he is a qualified emperor, and Dong Zhuo hopes to achieve his ambition before he dies, and prove to everyone in the world, especially those scholars in the Kwantung region, that he Dong Zhongying is not inferior to their existence!

The reason why the Kwantung clan was able to ride on their heads for a lifetime was completely due to their ancestor Fuyin, and in terms of ability, they were not bullshit compared to him Dong Zhuo.

So at this point, the two hit it off.

Dong Zhuo argued to Liu: "If Your Majesty wants to send troops quickly, the old minister thinks that it is not impossible, but it is a long-term matter to conquer Liangzhou to open up the Western Regions, and it is not a matter of day and night, and it must need a large number of horses, ordnance, men, mules and horses...... The most important thing is the weight of grain. ”

"Whether the existing family foundation of the imperial court can support it, the old man has no bottom in his heart."

Liu argued: "In this matter, Xiangguo can rest assured, I have decided to follow Liu Jian's example in Hebei and use Tuntian, the Guanzhong Plain is fertile for thousands of miles, and I also plan to recruit displaced people and use Tuntian to solve the problem of military rations." ”

Dong Zhuo nodded and said: "Your Majesty can humbly emulate General Liu, which shows that Your Majesty is benevolent, but according to the old minister's opinion, the military expenses accumulated by just acting like this are still far from enough. ”

Liu Wei asked, "Xiangguo, please try to say it?" ”

Dong Zhuoyan said: "It can make the country mint new money, one currency is worth 100, level all things, and make officials officials." ”

This was intended for Liu to issue a new currency, with a face value equivalent to 100 times the original Han Dynasty's five-baht coin, and then the government would take over the market and control prices, not allowing prices to fluctuate unfavorably against the government.

Subsequently, according to Dong Zhuo's explanation of Liu Wei, that is, although the face value of the new money is 100 times that of the original five baht coins, the weight is only one to two times that of the old money.

And now the Chang'an government is the Han government after all, in addition to the land of Guanzhong, the counties of the Kwantung prefectures must also use this currency, and the issuance and minting of this currency can only be in Yongzhou, so that Liu Wei can use the currency to plunder the wealth of the Kwantung princes, including Liu Jian and Yuan Shao.

After all, this is also the policy of the imperial court, and the local government must implement it.

Minting money with one hand, controlling the market with the other, a pure white wolf with empty gloves.

After all, Liu Wei is still young and inexperienced, and he doesn't think about things that are so far-reaching, of course, even if he thinks far-reaching enough, but under the lure of Dong Zhuo's method, he can't hold the bottom line.

For the current imperial court, this is indeed a way to make money quickly.

"Okay, since that's the case, then about Tuntian and coinage, I can ask Shang Shutai to draft the charter immediately, and the Prime Minister's Mansion, please also ask Xiangguo to urge more, and be sure to implement the matter as soon as possible."

……

……

What the court has to do, Liu Jian already has eyeliner here, and Dong Zhao and Zhang Ji, who seem to have been brought into Chang'an by Dong Zhuo, sent someone to send someone to Liu Jian at the first time to send the actions of the court to Liu Jian in the starry night.

For this move of the imperial court, Liu Jian was not in a hurry to deal with it, Liu Wei and Dong Zhuo jumped over the wall to mint new money to collect money in the people because of lack of money, which had long been expected by him.

After all, in the history of human development, this kind of thing is not a minority, and what the imperial court does is not new.

Anyway, what Liu Jian has to do is just to protect the property of the people under his jurisdiction.

The inflation caused by the accumulation of wealth by the imperial court, Liu Jian will not bear it for them.

The most urgent thing he had to do now was to lead the army north into the border of Bingzhou and conquer it.

……

……

Hedong County was settled, and Liu Jian's army marched.

Seeing that Liu Jian's army was leaving, Xu Huang was very anxious.

He was now in a state of contradiction in his heart.

First of all, in terms of heart and emotion, Xu Huang very much wants to follow Liu Jian.

A wise and martial lord like Liu Jian, Xu Huang is afraid that he will not be able to meet the second one in this life.

If you can't take this opportunity to go with Liu Jian, Xu Huang's achievements in this life will be able to see the end at a glance.

Only Liu Jian can give him a better development platform and give full play to his military talents.

But the problem is that Xu Huang also has another concern in his heart.

After all, the Taishou Wangyi of Hedong County was his master, and he promoted and reused Xu Huang, which can be said to be Xu Huang's favor.

Xu Huang is actually equivalent to Wang Yi's former official.

In this era, if the old officials change the lintel without a suitable reason, although it will not be notorious, it will have a certain impact on the individual's hope.

Although Xu Huang came from a relatively humble background, he also attaches great importance to his personal prestige, especially the Niyang Wang family is also a famous high-ranking family in Liangzhou.

Although a warrior does not pay as much attention to reputation as a scholar, who doesn't want to have a reputation for loyalty after his death?

Therefore, Xu Huang is now in a dilemma.

Should I go with Liu Jian, or not with Liu Jian?

Xu Huang couldn't sleep for three nights in a row.

Finally, after some struggle, Xu Huang still made up his mind to visit Wang Yi, bid farewell to Wang Yi and follow Liu Jian to the north to fight on the battlefield.

Although it will affect some of your own reputation, it is more important than fame, or a tangible future.

So, on the fourth night after three days of insomnia, Xu Huang went to visit Wang Yi's mansion late at night, and he came to Wang Yi's mansion, sent a famous thorn, and asked to meet Wang Fujun.

However, the doorman of the Wang family informed Xu Huang that Wang Yi was now meeting guests, and asked Xu Huang to wait for a while, and Wang Fujun would receive him later.

Although he was a little anxious, Xu Huang still honestly waited to the side.

After waiting for about half an hour, he still didn't see Wang Yi summoning him, and Xu Huang couldn't urge, so he could only go to the toilet first.

But on the way back from going to the toilet, I happened to see Wang Yi personally sending someone to the door.

And after seeing that person, Xu Huang couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly dodged to the side.

If Liu Jian and Wang Yi were allowed to see themselves here at the same time, and when they faced Wang Yi alone for a while, the scene would be too embarrassing.

"Brother Wendu! Liu took his leave. ”

Wang Yi arched his hand towards Liu Jian and said: "General, Wang wishes the general to go north this time and return victorious as soon as possible!" ”

Liu Jian said with a smile: "Brother Jiyan of Chengwen, what you and I agreed on is ......"

Wang Yi smiled: "In a word, the horse can't chase!" ”

"Good!"

I saw Liu Jian and Wang Yi stretching out their hands and high-fived each other.

Subsequently, Liu Jian said goodbye to Wang Yi.

After Liu Jian left, Wang Yi returned to the main hall and ordered someone to summon Xu Huang over.

Xu Huang entered the hall nervously, and after saluting Wang Yi, he was hesitating how to ask Wang Yi to resign, but he heard Wang Yi say: "Gongming! ”

"The last official is here!"

"You go back, pack your bags, and go to Bingzhou with General Fuyuan......

"Whew...... Yes? ”

When Xu Huang heard this, he was taken aback.

"Fujun, why is that? Why did you expel Xu Huang? ”

When Wang Yi heard this, his face showed a little displeasure.

"Gongming, look at what you said, how do you tell Wang to drive you away?"

"You are a courtier of the Han Dynasty, and you are not a subordinate of my Wang Yi alone, what qualifications does Wang have to hinder you from being loyal to the Han Dynasty?"

"Now, our Hedong County is at peace, and the Baibo Army has been completely wiped out by General Fuyuan."

"However, it is not enough for us to be peaceful in Hedong County...... The land of today's state was ravaged by the Montenegrin army, the Huns were rampant, and General Fuyuan discussed with Wang Moushen and asked you to serve in front of his army, which is also justified. ”

"After all, the war in northern Xinjiang is unstable, and there are still many places where you can be used in the future."

"I just don't know if you'd like to?"

"I won't hide it from you, General Fuyuan specially came to Wang to discuss this matter."

"Of course, Wang still strongly recommended you to go, you have the ability and talent, if you don't do your best for the country, it's a pity."

"It's just that Wang and the general can't make decisions for your personal future, if you don't want to go, but want to stay in the township, then General Fuyuan and I can't force it."

Having said that, how can Xu Huang still pretend to be serious and humbly retreat?

Wang Yi gave him a big step down today.

If he doesn't go down this step, then there will be no store in this village.

"Xu Huang, the last official, is willing to obey the military orders of the prince and the general, go to the front of the army, and serve the country."
