Chapter 627: A Pot of Rice

At the Banzhu Wharf in Xingyang, Yang Ming continued to Luoyang, and came to Hu'er to change the route from here, enter the Tongji Canal, and take 20,000 Luoyang garrisons to the south by boat.

Whether the Xiangyang Navy can be used or not, Yang Ming also gave a quasi-word, which can be used.

In fact, before Yang Ming promised him, he had already sent someone south to bring news to Shen Lun and Zhou Zhongmu, instructing them to try their best to delay, no matter what method they used, not to follow Laihu'er on the expedition, and wait for Yang Ming's next arrangement.

In the direction of Jingzhou, the person in charge of delivering the letter is Pang Ben's cousin Pang Tao and Qianniu Bei Dugu Lingyun.

Pang Tao served as a county lieutenant in Jiangling, and dealt with Murong Sanzang and the Shen family, Dugu Lingyun is a member of the Dugu family, and has an incense affair with Jiangxia Taishou Da Xi Wei and their family, and the two of them will hide in the dark and manipulate the army to take the initiative to seek defeat.

Now Dong Jingzhen, the general under Xiao Miao, is advancing by water and is storming Jiangxia, and Murong Sanzang also went there with reinforcements.

In Yang Ming's plan, Jiangxia can be lost, but Jiangling cannot be lost, Murong Sanzang and they want to feign defeat, retreat to Jiangling, and report to the court for support under the pretext of not having the assistance of the naval army.

In fact, it is a miserable sale, and it is necessary to tell the imperial court that if there is no naval support, Jiangling will be lost, and Jiangling is the political and economic center of the entire Jingzhou region, if it is lost here, Xiao Mo can easily control the entire Jingzhou.

Yang Guang would definitely not allow such a situation to happen, but he would not be willing to transfer the Xiangyang Navy away from Jiangdu.

However, Yang Ming will do this, because he is the generalissimo of soldiers and horses.

Murong Sanzang's report will come to him first, and after he arranges it, he will forward it to Jingshi, and even if Yang Guang does not agree, it will be too late to stop it.

Hebei Dading, Yujuluo will naturally return to Luoyang, the east palace hall of Ziwei Palace, everyone first congratulated the prince on his victory, successfully quelled the rebellion in Hebei, and then sat down one after another, and the banquet began.

The celebration banquet is definitely indispensable, although it is a form, but this form is very important.

"The military salary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs has not been allocated yet?" Yang Ming frowned.

Dugu Su nodded: "His Royal Highness reported 2.25 million guan, and the province has approved it, and His Majesty also nodded, but this money has to be sent out of the treasury from four places, Luoyang's treasury is 1 million, Jinyang is 250,000, Bashu is 500,000, Hebei is 500,000, and the current salary in Luoyang has been prepared, but it is not clear in several other places." ”

Fang Xuanling frowned and said: "The treasury of all parts of Hebei has long run out of money, how can you make up this military salary?" ”

"Curry is out of money," Dugu said, "but there is in the account of the imperial court." ”

Yang Ming couldn't help but laugh and said, "Let me eat empty bills?" The Ministry of Civil Affairs is quite good at settling accounts. ”

What's going on? It is a fact that the treasury of many places in Hebei has been looted by the rebels, the money and grain are gone, but the general ledger of the imperial court, those numbers are still there.

After the counterinsurgency in Hebei is over, then the imperial court will reconcile accounts with the local officials in Hebei, and the amount of the loss of the treasury in your jurisdiction must be reported.

If you dare to report honestly and say that the treasury under my supervision has been robbed, then good, you come to Beijing for a trip, let's settle the account, it is very likely that there will be no return.

Therefore, if you want to keep your official position, you have to find a way to pour grain from the local landlords and put it into the treasury to deal with inspections.

The court is like a mirror, how will the people below deal with it, the people in the center know very well, but they are just pretending to be confused, and assigning such empty accounts to Yang Ming is not to make trouble for Yang Ming, but to give problems to those local officials who make false reports.

The grain they borrowed was to be given to Yang Ming as a military salary and rewarded to the soldiers who went on the expedition, so how to make up for this shortfall?

500,000 guan, if it is Hebei without chaos, sprinkle water, a small amount of money, but now, those who are too shou are poorer than the other, and the imperial court's method is actually to let them make up the military salary for Yang Ming.

"Duke Cui is sick with anger, his old man is already old, and it is almost impossible to return to the court," Yu Juluo said: "Now that the Ministry of Civil Affairs is Xu Guogong, whether to write to him or not and let him think of a way." ”

Yang Xuanzong sneered: "Looking for him? He still wants to find you now, he can't make up 500,000 yuan, where did those people in the Ministry of Civil Affairs spend all the money? ”

Where did the flowers go? Why do you have any money?

The imperial court is also very shrewd in arranging this, because the center knows, and Yang Guang also knows, that the richest person now is Yang Ming.

The money in the treasury was robbed by the traitors, and the traitors were destroyed by the crown prince, so where did the money go?

In fact, it changed hands and fell into the hands of Yang Ming.

So Yang Ming didn't care about the 500,000 guan at all.

"Let everyone quit," Yang Ming waved his hand.

Yu Juluo and Li Jing, the Duke of the State of Xu, glanced at each other, snickering in their hearts, they guessed what the prince was going to do.

Divide the money.

The money allocated by the national treasury, Hebei still has to find a way to give, that is a clear account, but Yang Ming here, there is also a dark account.

After those maids withdrew, Yang Ming asked Fang Xuanling to take out a thick account for everyone to see.

At this time, everyone will not be polite, the account books are taken out for you, polite, when you take more and take less, then polite.

Dugu Su smiled and said: "Don't count the ministers into it, the ministers don't have any merit, and they don't dare to accept it." ”

Yang Ming glared at him: "Everyone here is hard work, and everyone can bear it." ”

Dugu Su smiled and stopped talking.

"The things on the account are all taken back from the hands of the Wagang thieves, high thieves, and grid thieves, this is stolen goods, so there are thirty percent of them, which are to be sent to the Beijing division for accounting," Fang Xuanling explained: "The war is chaotic, the loss of property is inevitable, and the one we seized from the traitors this time must be far from the actual losses in Hebei, and thirty percent is enough to deal with the imperial court." ”

Dou Kang nodded, he was very satisfied with his share, he didn't do anything, he got so much money, that's why it is easy for people in high positions to get money.

Sharing spoils is a long-standing tradition in the army, and it is also an unspoken rule, and everyone dares to take this kind of money.

The Emperor also knows that you have secret accounts.

It's not that Yang Guang hasn't done this kind of thing, when he destroyed the Chen Dynasty, he was the biggest, and when he raided He Ruobi, he knew what He Ruobi had at home.

"What about the one who came to protect the child?" Dou Kang asked.

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "He has already taken him to Jiangdu, and his hometown is in Jiangdu." ”

This dark account can't be faked, because everyone participated, and how many were seized, like Yujuluo, Tu Wanxu, and Huangfu Wuyi, they probably all had a number in their hearts, and many of them were seized.

War is a national disaster, the country loses money, and the military makes money, as has always been.

"If you don't have any objections, then divide it like this," Yang Ming said: "As for the 500,000 in Hebei, don't rush it, owe it first, when will it be there, and when will it be made up." ”

Huangfu Wuyi said: "The prince's share is a little small, and the minister thinks it's not very suitable." ”

Yang Ming smiled: "That's it, I'll be a little more and a little less, there's not much difference." ”

"How can there be Wei Xuan in this?" Yang Yichen was puzzled.

Dou Kang said with a smile: "The rebellion in Hebei, Shandong, and Jiangnan is a pot of rice, so everyone can't eat it in a different pot, right?" ”

Yang Yichen smiled: "Understood." ”

Dou Kang means that after Shandong and Jiangnan are pacified, they can still share a sum of money, and this time the Qinghe Cui family also shared the money, as long as they contribute, everyone has a share.

However, Yang Jun and Yuwenshu have been mixed in, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to divide the accounts in the future.

"Okay, this matter is over, don't mention it again," Yang Ming changed the topic and said: "Danyang County, Wang Shichong has already fought with Fu Gongyi, since King Qi has been urging food, let's allocate it all." ”

Dugu Su nodded: "Now there is a problem, it is Xiao Mo who is expanding to Jingzhou, and Jingzhou is at the moment, except for Murong Sanzang and Da Xiwei, the military government is unable to requisition and transfer, Xiangyang County is completely empty, if Jiangxia is defeated, the situation in Jingzhou may be very serious." ”

He said this because he was secretly instructed by Yang Ming.

Li Jing also hurriedly said: "Jingzhou can't have a problem, the land of fish and rice, the land of taxation, if there is chaos today, only Jingzhou is peaceful, if the tax is cut off here, how difficult will the government be?" ”

"The minister is willing to lead the army to Jiangxia and suppress the Xiao thief," Yang Xuan said.

Xuan Zong hurriedly cooperated with the acting and said: "The waterways over there, what can you do when you go?" The Xiangyang Navy is in Jiangdu, and Xiao Milling is the Jianghuai Navy in his hands, you don't have a boat, bring a bunch of landlubbers, what? Going to die? ”

"Is it too late to build a ship?" Yang Yuanqing asked deliberately.

Yu Juluo explained: "It's too late, my Great Sui from the Kaihuang period, I don't pay attention to the maintenance of the inland river water division, the craftsmen are not easy to find, the sea ships of Donglai County, can not enter the Yangtze River, there are only two water divisions in the south, that is, Xiangyang and Jiangdu, Jiangdu water division has become a rebel, can match it, only Xiangyang water division." ”

After Dou Kang glanced at Yang Ming, he said lightly: "It depends on whether Jiangxia can defend it, this is the gateway to Jingzhou, if it can't be defended, the Xiangyang Navy must go south to support, otherwise the entire Jingzhou will fall into the hands of the rebels." ”

Li Jiancheng frowned and said, "I'm afraid King Qi won't let us transfer the Xiangyang Navy." ”

"Then if you lose Jingzhou, it's good on his head," Dou Kang said.

Yang Ming raised his hand and said: "Don't say this kind of arrogant words, Jingzhou can't be lost, Jiangdu still has Luoyang supply, if Jingzhou is lost, Lingnan will have a problem, send a document to Murong Sanzang, order him to stick to Jiangxia, order Xiangyang Taishou Du Zha to recruit troops to support, and Yang Xuan Award to be guarded by Qiaojun, and lead the military government of Ruyin, Runan, and Huai'an to go south to support." ”

Qu Tutong said with a righteous face: "The last general is willing to go." ”

My people go down to act, what are you involved in? Yang Ming raised his eyebrows and said: "Let you come from Xingyang, it's to give you money, not to find something for you to do, and go back to Xingyang honestly." ”

The corners of his mouth twitched and he retreated into place.

"Now that the canal is also open, trade with Hebei must be on the right track as soon as possible," Yang Ming said in a deep voice: "There is a shortage of materials over there, and the people need to rebuild their homes. ”

Wu Hua nodded: "Your Highness, don't worry, the ministers know what to do." ”

"Let's do this for the time being, let's go down and rest," Yang Ming took the lead in getting up.

Everyone also hurriedly got up and sent the prince away.
