"Liaoxia joint forces? This is the biggest danger since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

Since the news of the Liaoxia soldiers coming to the border of the Great Song Dynasty, the entire Great Song Dynasty people have been panicking!

"This battle is in danger for my Great Song!" Many people were worried.

The Great Song Dynasty has always been weak in force and has always been suppressed by the Liao State, especially when the shadow of the Lanyuan Alliance is shrouded again, not to mention that now the Western Xia has been added, and the Great Song Dynasty may be more auspicious in this battle.

"What are you afraid of, my Great Song Dynasty has earth-shattering thunder, and there are 800,000 forbidden troops, and this battle will definitely be able to defeat Liaoxia."

There are also many people who are full of confidence in Song Jun.

The Great Song Dynasty was indeed weak in force before, but now the Great Song Dynasty has a gunpowder weapon Earthquake Thunder, even if a child ignites the Earthquake Thunder, it can kill the enemy in the same way, and the problem of the weak force of the Great Song Dynasty has already been greatly improved, especially this time, the Great Song Dynasty is the defender, and also has the advantage of defending the city, Liaoxia wants to win a big victory, it is impossible to succeed so easily.

Not to mention, now that the Great Song Dynasty has won two battles of Pingxia City in succession, and even destroyed Qingtang in one battle, the national strength is thriving, and today is already different from the past.

The people of the Great Song Dynasty suddenly formed polarization, the older ones sang the decline of the Great Song Dynasty, after all, in the previous Great Song Dynasty foreign wars, repeatedly defeated, while the younger generation benefited from the two battles of Pingxia City, full of confidence in the Song army, thinking that the Song army would win.

"How can that be the same, now it's Liaoxia United Attack! I am afraid that there will be a disaster of national destruction. An old man said worriedly.

Now the Great Song Dynasty has indeed won a few wars, but it is only a single war with one country, and they naturally have the confidence to be undefeated, but now the Great Song Dynasty is now facing the joint dispatch of troops from Liaoxia and Xia, and when they are the two strongest countries, even the people of the Great Song Dynasty have no confidence in the Song army.

"And Liaoxia has increased the annual coin by three million this time, where did the imperial court take it out, and it is not to give our money to Liaoguo."

"It's not good, the old man's money is now in the Royal Bank!"

"No, the old man wants to take out his money, and the court uses the money from the Royal Bank, and I'll be miserable!"

Many landlords were extremely stingy and greedy for money, and they were willing to take out their money for the interest of the young seedlings during the death period, because they believed in the credit of the imperial court.

However, now that Liaoxia is jointly attacking the Great Song Dynasty, once the Great Song Dynasty is defeated, there will be a disaster of destroying the country, and if even the imperial court is afraid that it will not be able to keep it, then their money will probably be wasted.

At the moment, some extremely conservative landlords could no longer sit still, and even before the war in Liaoxia began, they began to go to the royal bank to withdraw money.

"This distinguished guest, if you withdraw cash now, you can only calculate it according to the interest on the current period, not the interest on the dead period." Inside the Royal Bank, a teller reminded him wholeheartedly.

"I know, I'll withdraw the money now!" A pot-bellied old man couldn't wait to say, if it was normal, he would break a copper plate in half and spend it, but now in the face of the loss of up to several dollars, he didn't blink his eyes.

The teller did not persuade, but said directly: "Okay, please sign here!" ”

At that moment, the teller took out the contract that had already been printed, and asked the old man to sign and draw a pledge on it!

The landlord walked out of the Royal Bank with a heavy silver coin, as if in a dream, he had expected the trip to be difficult, but he did not expect to withdraw his money so easily, and a little more current interest.

This made him regret a little, if calculated according to the interest of the death period, his behavior today would have lost a lot of interest, but seeing his money returned, his heart suddenly felt a little more relieved.

Something like this happened constantly in the Royal Bank of the Great Song Dynasty, and many people who were not determined went to the Royal Bank to take out their money and then buried it again in the soil of the courtyard.

"Lord Qiqi Fan, this war has not yet begun, in just ten days, the people of the world have already taken out tens of millions of green seedling money, if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will not be long before the Royal Bank will have no cash."

Inside the Royal Bank, a shopkeeper frowned.

You must know that the deposit of the Royal Bank of the Great Song Dynasty has taken more than half a year, and it has only been ten days, and tens of millions have been withdrawn, and this amount is still increasing, not to mention, the Royal Bank still has a lot of money lent out to the outside world, and it has not been recovered, I am afraid that with the cash flow of the Royal Bank, it will not last long.

Seeing this, Fan Zheng did not panic, and said with a confident smile: "The time is ripe, send out a report from the palace, and when the news comes out, it will be said that all the silver in the treasury will be deposited in the Royal Bank, which will be responsible for the distribution of hundreds of officials and the army, and the operation of taxes in various places." ”

"Yes!" The shopkeeper couldn't help but rejoice, if he could deposit the money from the treasury in the Royal Bank, it would be enough to make the Royal Bank much more resilient to risks.

The shopkeeper immediately puzzled: "Master Fan actually has such a clever trick, why should he wait until the people have taken out tens of millions of yuan before spreading this news." ”

Fan Zheng explained: "Because this group of people is the least determined people, and at the same time, they are also the most steered people, no matter how soon or late this news is released, these people will take out their money, so only by making this group of people regret can they stabilize the hearts of more depositors, and pass the order, and the interest on the green seedlings of the Royal Bank will be reduced by five millimeters!" ”

"Five millimeters more?" The shopkeeper of the Royal Bank was puzzled, if the people took out their money one after another, the most correct way for the Royal Bank was to raise the interest rate to attract the people of the world to store the green seedling money, but Fan Zheng did the opposite, and even lowered the interest rate instead.

Fan Zheng said confidently: "Raising the interest rate will only make the people of the world rush to withdraw money, and only let the people understand that once the green seedling money is withdrawn, not only will the current interest be lost, but it will be deposited in the Royal Bank in the future, and the interest will be lower and the loss will be greater, so that the people of the world will no longer run. ”

"Master Fan is wise!"

The shopkeeper sincerely admired.

Chen landlord's house.

"I can't wait any longer, I must first withdraw the money from the Royal Bank, once the war starts, I am afraid that the money will be requisitioned by the imperial court." Rich Lord Chen was impatient, and now that Liaoxia had jointly sent troops, many landlords had taken out money from the Royal Bank, which made Rich Chen naturally even more unable to sit still.

"Father think twice, the Royal Bank is the face of the Great Song Dynasty, how can it easily fall, take out the Qingmiao money at this moment, my father has calculated how much money the Chen family will lose!" The Chen family's son persuaded that in order to earn more benefits, most of the Chen family's money was saved with five years of interest, and it would be a heavy loss to take it out at this moment.

Rich Lord Chen hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "You don't know the affairs of the court, what kind of scenery the official Jiaozi was back then, and in the end, it was not drained of blood by the imperial court, in my opinion, the Royal Bank is just the second official Jiaozi, and it has become the money bag of the imperial court." ”

Chen Caizhu has experienced the incident of Jiaozi back then, and naturally knows how the glorious Jiaozi ended, if the imperial court is in urgent need of money, it is impossible to let go of the golden mountain of the Royal Bank.

"The imperial court has a national debt for military spending, how can it be ..................." The Chen family wanted to argue with reason and explain to his father the difference between Jiaozi and the bank.

However, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, and the rich man Chen didn't listen at all, so he had to let his father go to get the money.

When the two of them took the passbook and took the carriage to Kaifeng City, they just entered Kaifeng City, and they were shocked by a news in the newspaper.

"The money from the treasury is also deposited in the Royal Bank!" The Chen family father and son were incredulous.

Not only the father and son of the Chen family, as soon as this news came out, it immediately shook the entire Kaifeng City.

You must know that the annual income of the Great Song Dynasty treasury is 80 million yuan, even if it is usually in turnover and needs to be allocated to all parts of the Great Song Dynasty, it will still be a huge fortune left in the Royal Bank, and the money from the treasury will be deposited in the Royal Bank, which will immediately inject a dose of strength into the turbulent Royal Bank.

Many people who originally planned to withdraw money suddenly fell into hesitation, and the Chen family father and son immediately hesitated, and even the money from the treasury was deposited in the Royal Bank, not to mention their thousands of dollars, if they took it out at this moment, they would lose more interest.

"The Royal Bank has cut interest rates by five millimeters again!"

Immediately, another news came out, which made the Chen family father and son retreat, and directly cut the interest rate by five millimeters, the one-year interest was directly reduced by one-quarter, and the five-year interest was reduced by one-sixth, plus the term is very long, and the loss is not a small amount.

"The old man regrets it!"

A landlord who took out the green seedling money repented of not saying the original way, and with the money from the treasury deposited in the Royal Bank, the Royal Bank was risk-free, and now the interest rate has been cut, and they have suffered heavy losses.

"Take it well, and if you take it and then store it in, the loss will be big, not to mention that the Great Song Dynasty still has the earth-shattering thunder, and this battle may not be lost."

"And the child heard that there are bandits in Kaifeng City who are staring at the people who take money, during this period of time, there have been several cases of money theft in Kaifeng City, and even murders. The Chen family said persuadingly.

"Alright! Look at the situation again! ”

Chen was finally convinced.

At the same time, such things abound in Kaifeng City, and with Fan Zheng's moves, the phenomenon of the people in the world running on the Royal Bank has been greatly reduced.

Fan Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and the run on the Royal Bank finally eased temporarily.

However, Fan Zheng understands that the real crisis has not been resolved, and everything depends on the battle situation on the front line.

In the face of Liaoxia's attack, the Great Song Dynasty did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and the war machine was almost activated.

Now the Great Song Dynasty has just issued 10 million yuan of national bonds, which can be said to be sufficient for money and grain, and a large amount of grain, grass, weapons and armor have begun to be transported to various parts of the front line under the mobilization of the imperial court.

Jingyuan Road!

"Let Zhang Mou command the armies!"

When Zhang Qi received the military order, he was immediately incredulous, and the other generals were also shocked when they got the news.

The imperial court's defense of the generals can be said to be well-known to the world, and the generals naturally have self-knowledge.

"Not bad! We are here today to spread the word! Yang Jian said sharply, appointing Zhang Ji to preside over the battle of Western Xia was extremely important, and Zhao Xu appointed Yang Jian, a close attendant, to come and deliver the order in person.

"Thank you for the love of the official family, please forgive Weichen for not daring to accept the order!" Zhang Qi refused.

He naturally knew Di Qing's fate, and naturally knew that if he was in charge of the Northwest Fifth Route Army, he would definitely be feared by hundreds of officials, and he also had a special identity, so he was Zhang Dan's cousin.

One of their cousins is the prime minister in the court, and the other is in charge of the five-way army in the army, how can they not make the court jealous and uneasy, and they may become the handle of the court to attack the two in the future.

Yang Jian naturally knew Zhang Ji's concerns, and said loudly at the moment: "Master Zhang misunderstood, it was not Zhang Xianggong who recommended you, but Fan Taicheng!" ”

"Evil Doctor Fan Zheng!" Zhang Qi couldn't help but be shocked and couldn't believe the news.

In the face of the siege of the Western Xia army, Pingxia City not only stubbornly defended with the evil tricks of the evil doctor Fan Zheng, but also guarded it for more than half a month each time, so that the armies from all walks of life had enough time to layout, and finally made the Western Xia suffer heavy losses.

However, the two did not have much intersection, but he did not expect that Fan Zheng would actually nominate him to take charge of the Northwest Fifth Route Army.

"Moreover, the strategy of dividing the army into five routes has been defeated many times, and the imperial court intends to change this law, and the privy envoy went north to the front line to be responsible for the defense of the Liao State, and the battle of the western front His Majesty entrusted it to the envoy of Zhang Jing." Yang Jian explained.

After hearing all this, Zhang Ji suddenly felt slightly excited in his heart and let down his guard.

"Thank you for the trust of the officials, the ministers will definitely live up to the trust of the officials!" Zhang Qi took the edict and said solemnly.

After receiving the military order, Zhang Duan looked around at the generals and said: "Pass the order and go all out to explore the movements of Western Xia!" Once the trend of Western Xia is determined, report it immediately! ”

"Where is the planting!" Zhang Qi ordered.

"The last general!" Chongpu ordered.

"This commander orders all the Tiefutu and kidnapping horses in the five roads to be under your command, and you immediately send troops to Pingxia City to threaten the farming land of Western Xia." Zhang Qi ordered.

"We took the initiative to send troops?" Chong Pu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief.

Other generals were also shocked, it has always been the Western Xia to attack, the Great Song Dynasty to defend, and now Zhang Qi actually ordered the Great Song Dynasty soldiers to take the initiative to attack the Western Xia.

Zhang Qi nodded and said: "Yes, it has always been the Western Xia who chooses the battlefield, and this time, it will be the Great Song Dynasty that chooses the battlefield, this time, I want to let the war burn on the land of the Western Xia." ”

"Da Song chooses the battlefield!" Chong Pu's eyes lit up suddenly, he was in charge of the Iron Floating Tu, which had the strongest attack power, and was naturally particularly interested in attacking.

"Remember, don't cross the Yellow River, don't attack the Jiancheng of Western Xia, but destroy as much as possible in the territory of Western Xia, completely anger the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, and lead the battlefield near Pingxia City, this time, I will fight the third battle of Pingxia City." Zhang Ji Zhizhu is shaking the road.

He naturally knew that the current situation in the Great Song Dynasty could no longer be passively defended as before, but needed to take the initiative to break the situation.

Since there will be a war sooner or later, then put the battlefield in the territory of Western Xia, which can not only destroy the country of Western Xia as much as possible, but also provoke the Empress Dowager of Western Xia and look for fighters!
