Chapter 889 Recognize the situation and try to protect yourself
Everything was in Ding Kui's expectations, and the nobles of Nannuma Prefecture continued to come to visit, and after finding out the wind, they boldly stuffed people to him, including disciples, side disciples, and even descendants, all of which asked him to bring up his juniors.
When Ding Kui set off for Giant Sheep City, there were more than a dozen young faces in the team. Among them is a weak woman, with a goose egg face, a high forehead and big eyes, the upper lip is slightly thinner than the lower lip, the tips of the lips are upturned, she is not tall and similar to Ruan Xingzhu, her chest is bulging, and her loose top cannot cover it.
This woman is the most special, and she only joined the team after Ding Kui left Nanjing City.
"Your name is Haimeng Thorn, right?" Ding Kui saw that the woman couldn't sit on the back of the horse, so he leaned over and helped him.
This woman is the maid of the Yang family who was saved by He Cripple, Haimengthorn was hidden in the house, Ding Kui knew about her, sympathized with her experience, and decided to take her back to Juyang City. Due to the large number of eyes and ears in the capital, Ding Kui instructed Qianyou to ask a familiar magician to take her to Nanjing City, and find another place to live in Nanjing City.
"Yes, yes, yes. Haimeng Thorn was taken aback by Ding Kui. She knew that Ding Kui was the owner of the life-saving benefactor and her future male host, so she suddenly appeared by her side and was a little flustered.
"You're not used to riding a horse?" Ding Kui let go of his hand and found that the sea dream thorn was still shaking.
"Yes, slaves and maids are lowly and rarely have the opportunity to ride horses. Sea Dream Thorn lowered his head, his chin almost touching his chest.
Ding Kui glanced at it subconsciously, his throat was a little dry, "Ahem, then you go to the car, just in time to serve Madame." ”
The whole team was basically full of men, and the only woman was in the princess's car, and Shaodianluan didn't bring the maid out this time.
It was the guy from the Chilled Fresh MAI line who sent Haimengthorn, and he didn't ask Haimengthorn whether he could ride a horse beforehand, so he hurried over to take Haimengthorn to the princess's car.
"This young person, the development is better than Shi Li, I don't know how many teenagers' hearts will be disturbed when I bring it back. Ding Kui secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Rao has seen all kinds of stunning beauties, and he is still deeply impressed by Haimengthorn.
The high-level officials of Giant Sheep City lined up outside the city to greet the city lord and his wife, but Long Yan was stopped by Mrs. Liang and did not follow.
"Grandpa Kun, Grandpa Qian, Mr. Liu, Mr. Fei, Team Xue, and Xiao Zhong follow me to the conference hall, and the others will disperse. Ding Kui returned to the lord's mansion and immediately convened the important people under his hand to discuss the matter.
"Let's hear the latest news first. Ding Kui began to raise Ding Zhong's status by his side.
"Yes, sir. As soon as I received the news, the day after the king succeeded to the throne, the Sixth Army Corps in Xihai Prefecture broke out in internal strife, and the 54th, 55th, 59th, and 60th Divisions rebelled out of the main camp and joined the receiving troops of the Fifth Army Corps a few days ago, and should now arrive in the Tibetan Fog Mountain. "The Security Bureau, which Ding Zhong is in charge of, has begun to take shape, and it is no longer inferior to the Espionage Department in terms of important intelligence gathering.
"The commanders of the 54th and 55th divisions are husband and wife, named Dou Dou Meal and Liu Yi, Dou Shenjiang is one of the few female division commanders in the army, with an upright and strong personality, and she is most unaccustomed to rebellious ministers and thieves, and it is estimated that she provoked this infighting. Fei Ze said with a smile.
"In the same legion, the commander of the husband and wife division? Ding Kui became interested.
"This kind of situation is indeed rare, and it is also because the staff was a little chaotic during that time, and Commander Jiang was unwilling to take care of too much, in short, it was caused by a variety of factors, and it was also the only case in the military at present. Fei didn't explain much.
"The reason behind this is that there is no unity within the rebels, and once the royal family elects an orthodox king, those who are loyal to orthodoxy will make their voices heard, and those who have not yet spoken will stand up when the opportunity comes. Liu Yu brought the topic back to normal.
Ding Kui raised his chin to Ding Zhong, and Ding Zhong continued: "There are also sporadic battles in Zhongwangzhou, Hailin Prefecture and Haishan Prefecture, but the scale is not large, and the casualties are only hundreds. ”
"The troops of the Yangyuanzhou Theater began to withdraw from Cao, and it is said that the first to board the ship was the 10th Army, and the Cao army also stepped up its attack on the assembly area of our army. ”
"The Commander-in-Chief's Office ordered the states to recruit and train new soldiers, and officially announced the abolition of the Eleventh, Twelfth, Eighteenth, and Nineteenth Army Corps, and the intention to re-establish them in the four eastern states. ”
"The 206th, 207th, 208th, 209th and 210th divisions of the 21st Army completed their assembly and left for Zhongwangzhou yesterday, with Commander Gu Jun personally leading the troops. ”
"The Government Council announced that the whole country will levy a tax to quell disorder, and various taxes will be raised by 5 percent. ”
"What? The full tax rate will be raised by five points?" Ding Kui couldn't sit still, and the souls who had crossed the earth thought it was incredible.
"This is normal, it has been done in history when there is a rebellion, and the people can accept it. Liu Yu didn't quite understand Ding Kui's reaction.
"The young master has cared about those who are poor since he was a child, and now Shaodian doesn't know how many people are in poverty. "Ding Kun made up for Ding Kui's brain.
"Taxes are increasing every year, and the national strength of the Shaodian country is constantly being weakened, and it is dangerous to continue like this. Ding Kui's explanation is in line with the identity of the king's brother-in-law.
"Fortunately, during the tax exemption period, at most, we have to pay more cross-border commercial taxes, and we are afraid that the external environment will become worse. Liu Yu thought along Ding Kui's train of thought.
"I have gathered everyone here today to say this, since the Qi-Cao War, Meng has not been very active; his own country has an ambiguous attitude towards China's internal strife, and does not support Shaodianyong nor oppose it, and secretly there must be plans that are unfavorable to our country.
Whether it is Meng or our own country, it is a huge threat to the giant sheep city, the kingdom obviously has no spare strength to take care of us, once the foreign enemy invades, the situation may be worse than a few years ago, we need to take precautions as soon as possible. ”
As soon as Ding Kui finished speaking, the conference hall instantly fell silent, and everyone fell into deep thought, Giant Sheep City is everyone's base, and they must face the current situation carefully.
Champu was the first to say: "Does the construction of the new city need to be suspended? It is better to strengthen the northern wall first." ”
"We can't pause, but we need to speed up the process and move ahead of schedule. Ding Kui shook his head.
"Okay, the subordinates will gather more people to go to the new city, and tomorrow we will draw up a preliminary migration list for you to see. Liu Yu immediately took up the record.
"Because you mentioned the idea of demolishing the city wall, a lot of heavy city defense equipment has been removed, so do you have to put it back on?" Xue Chong asked.
"No, all the demolished ones will be transported to the new city. Giant Sheep City can be defended or not, even if it is ceded to the enemy for a while, it will be taken back sooner or later, and we can't fight the enemy army in Giant Sheep City. Ding Kui still denied it.
"The Security Service has increased its manpower to Bangladesh and our own country, right? The intelligence of these two countries is particularly critical, and I am afraid that there are not enough manpower at present. Ding Zhong finally dared to make a bold suggestion.
