Chapter 326: Escaping, Atria
Due to the blockade of news by the imperial court in the southeast, the Japanese in northern Jiangsu do not know that the imperial court has found out their details, so Zhao Jun still has a lot of time here.
Considering the difficulty of marching in winter, the news from the imperial court was to set off before the beginning of spring.
Sufficient preparation time allows Yunzhou County to prepare well.
In the following meetings, Zhao Jun proposed that the Pingwei army could not walk on one leg, and it would not work to just count on the imperial court, and that letting them do logistics was no different from letting rats manage the granary, and Yunzhou County should prepare another logistics support route for the Pingwei army, or even several.
In the end, Zhao Jun agreed that Yunzhou County was currently in the Guannei and could bring the greatest help to the Ping Wei Army, Feiyun Commercial Bank.
After Li Dingguo entered the customs, if there was a need for materials, he could go to Feiyun Commercial Bank to help mobilize it, and Feiyun Trading House would unconditionally help the Pingwei army mobilize grain and grass if he held the Feiyun Order given by Zhao Jun.
In addition, in terms of intelligence, Guan's secret guard base can provide him with information.
The major counties in the basic pass, especially in the north, have now been deployed and controlled by the secret guards, and there are quite complete intelligence proposals, even if the information that the Imperial City Division can collect, I am afraid that the secret guards are not complete, and on the way to the north of Jiangsu, the relevant information of the local area, the Ping Wei army can rely on the intelligence network of the secret guards.
In addition, after all, Feiyun Trading House is only a trading house, and its mobilization capacity is limited, and there are always times when the strength is not caught, and the Feiyun Trading House can provide it when the marching consumption on weekdays is consumed, but after the Ping Wa Army and the Wako are handed over, the ability of the Feiyun Trading House may not be enough to support the Ping Wa Army.
This is also because of the unstable foundation of Feiyun Commercial Bank in the southern generation, the southern generation has always been seriously xenophobic, and the northern commercial banks will be squeezed out by the local commercial banks if they want to enter, so even if Feiyun Commercial Bank is in the south, it can only be said to have just gained a foothold, and the help it can provide is limited.
Therefore, in northern Jiangsu, it was necessary to think of another way to help the Ping Wa army to provide material supplies.
When everyone was worried, suddenly a director of the Yunzhou Yamen Taxation Department suddenly got up and said: "Lord Wang, when the lower officials were sorting out the tax documents this month, they accidentally found a tax payment document that may be helpful in this matter. ”
Everyone was stunned.
How can tax paperwork help?
Isn't what they are discussing now about how to find a way to transport wartime supplies to the Ping Wa army?
How can this tax payment paper help?
A tax payment document, as the name suggests, is an instrument that records the payment of taxes.
It is a tax summary of the tariffs that need to be paid by the local government or goods entering and leaving the sphere of influence of Yunzhou County, and will eventually be sent to Yunzhou County for archiving, which is usually filed once every six months.
This petty official is the head of the Archives Cabinet, who is responsible for the filing of tax documents.
Although he was puzzled, Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Tell me." ”
The petty official immediately replied: "Lord Wang, since I opened trade between Yunzhou County and the body poison, many businessmen in my Yunzhou sphere of influence have gone to the body poison to do business, some of them ran close, some of them ran far, and the lower officials found such a day tax payment record when they sorted out the tax documents for the first half of the year a few days ago.
Fang Ji Dry Goods Bank paid a tariff on 50 carts of salted fish on the border between the body poison and Tianyun country, and collected a total of 2,300 taels of tariffs according to the tariff policy of 10 taxes and 3 taels for goods imported by Tianyun people.
The source of the goods is a small suba in the southernmost part of the poison, called Atria, where it is close to the sea, and it is the main salt production area of the poison country, and his salt comes from there. ”
As soon as this little official finished speaking, everyone immediately understood what he meant, Zhao Jun immediately convened Wang Huaien to give a few orders, Wang Huaien nodded and left, and soon came back, but this time he already had two volumes of maps in his hands.
Zhao Jun nodded, ordered someone to erect a large blackboard behind him, and instructed someone to draw it on the blackboard with chalk according to the two maps in his hand, and waited quietly at random.
The map in Zhao Jun's hand, one is the official topographic map of the Great Song Dynasty, and the other is the topographic map of the body poison detected by the secret guard.
After the start of the war with the body poison, the secret guard has been constantly infiltrating the entire territory of the body poison, and the information from all over the body poison has also continued to converge towards Yunzhou County, but after the truce with the body poison, Zhao Jun has not paid much attention to this matter.
After being reminded just now, Zhao Jun asked Wang Huaien to go to the secret guard to get the latest map.
After a subordinate who was good at drawing the two maps on the big blackboard, the clear terrain suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone's eyes suddenly lit up!
What are you saying?
Just look at the map on the blackboard, according to the combined map, the poisonous Atlia used to be a branch of the Yunling Mountain Range, and the direction he corresponded to was Subei County.
The places corresponding to Atria in northern Jiangsu County are part of the main vein of Yunling and Bohai Bay.
According to the official records of northern Jiangsu, the extension of the Yunling Mountains encountered in the eastward direction of the Bohai Bay, and there was no human existence, so even though there was a Yunling Mountain Range between the body poison and the Great Song Dynasty, the two sides had never been in contact.
Even the sea route to the southeast has always been in the direction of the Japanese state, and the danger at sea is too great. Since there was a safe route, no one had to drive to the east, where no one had ever set foot before, despite the danger.
This also meant that Yunzhou County could bypass the Yunling branch through Atria and enter the Bohai Bay, and then quickly support the Pingwei army in northern Jiangsu from the sea.
Even Zhao Jun thought out of his divergent thinking that if he made good use of this route, maybe not only to transport military supplies, but also to use this outlet to reach into the south of the Great Song Dynasty, and even go to sea, to seize the huge benefits of maritime trade!
Moreover, northern Jiangsu is so bitter, and there are so many poor people in the four southeastern counties, they can't survive to catch a handful, otherwise there would not be the previous Fangla rebellion.
In fact, the situation is that almost none of the people in the four southeastern counties who can't survive rebel, but they are all suppressed by them, and Fang La has an accident.
It just so happens that Yunzhou County now has grain, and the territory under its control is also large, but there is no one, and if you want to rely on the Song life of Yunzhou County alone, you don't know how many years it will take for the next batch to grow up.
He can just pull people in the southeast, and he can disguise himself as having discovered gold and silver mountains and pull people to pan for gold.
In order to fool the local government and forces.
Thinking of it later, the more Zhao Jun thought about it, the more benefits he had!
Immediately, he ordered: "Immediately send a message to Wang Cezhi and tell him that this king has asked to set up several ports in Atria to Tianyun Kingdom, and the port area is the territory of Tianyun Kingdom, so that the Poison King agrees." ”
This is Jiang He who suddenly stood up and said: "Lord Wang, this is tantamount to letting the body poison cut the ground, can the body poison king agree?" ”
Zhao Jun said coldly: "He doesn't have the right to choose, if he doesn't agree, my 300,000 troops in Yunzhou will teach them how to write two words of agreement!" ”
Jiang He was stunned, and then understood that his prince was going to rob him, so he didn't say anything, after all, Yunzhou County did have this strength now, but then he raised another question.
"Lord Wang, it's easy to say anything about the port, but we don't have a ship, even if we start building it now, it's too late, shipbuilding is not an overnight thing, we don't even have a shipyard, and it's impossible to build ships in a short time, especially ships that can go to sea!"
Everyone frowned!
Zhao Jun didn't care and said: "As long as money can solve the problem, it's not a problem."
Since we can't build it in a short time, let's buy it first! ”
