Shuhan

Chapter 177, The Kingdom of Wei is in turmoil, and Huang Xuer wants to fight for the throne of Wei?

Wancheng.

In the lobby of the government office.

Liu Chan was dressed in brocade clothes, with a thick mink fur shawl on his shoulders, his long hair draped down his shoulders, looking casual, and at the moment he was sipping a bowl of shochu.

Opposite Liu Chan, Xu Shu, dressed in a Confucian robe, was sitting upright. A bottle of shochu was placed in front of him, and it had already cooled down.

Huhuhu~
Outside the lobby, the whistling wind was blowing the dead branches of the old trees, making it very noisy.

woohoo~
It's like a ghost screaming, which makes people feel frightened.

"Your Highness, in the past three days, the detailed rules of the business alliance can almost be finalized."

Xu Shu had two dark circles under his eyes.

In the past three days, he was sleepy all night, and he didn't sleep well.

It's all about the specific rules of this business alliance.

Fortunately, the three days will not be in vain.

At this moment, Liu Chan was holding a thick stack of detailed rules written by Xu Shu in his hand, and nodded while looking at it.

"According to Mr.'s detailed rules, there must be no problem with the business alliance in Nanyang County."

Special event.

There are too many gentry in Nanyang County, if they are stabilized, Jingzhou will also be stabilized.

"However, in addition to doing business with the counties of Jingzhou, Nanzhong, and Yizhou, it may be possible to open business routes to Wei State and Jiangdong."

For war horses, it is still too slow to rely on Li Ming's family to obtain horse breeds.

If the goal can be achieved by following Wei Guo's business path, then it is naturally the best.

The same is true for Jiangdong.

At this stage, Liu Chan is in an alliance with Sun Zhongmou. The two transportation companies are both beneficial to each other, and he will definitely not refuse.

of course
At this moment, Sun Quan's mind may be in Hefei.

I don't know when I will be able to capture Hefei after preparing for so long.

"It's okay for Jiangdong to say, this is the country of Wei"

Xu Shu frowned slightly.

Now Liu Chan has become Wei's biggest enemy.

Open up business routes in enemy countries?
This is impossible.

Seeing Xu Shu's expression like this, Liu Chan knew what was on his mind. He smiled lightly and said, "No one will be troubled by money. When it comes to Wei Guo, we can give more benefits, and some people will come up to take risks."

Marx said:

If there is a 10% profit, the capitalist will guarantee to use it everywhere; if there is a 20% profit, he can be active; if there is a 50% profit, he will take risks; if there is a 100% profit, he will trample on everything in the world law!With a 300% profit, he dares to commit any crime!Even at the risk of hanging his head!

And Liu Chan's business way can earn more than 300% of the benefits.

Don't worry no one wants to take over.

"Especially in the land of Qingxu, its powerful and handsome, please contact us more."

Green place?

Xu Shu's eyes lit up.

"Your Highness wants to make Wei Guo mess up?"

"of course."

Since it is a competitor, it is not an exaggeration to use any means.

Even though Liu Chan is now forming an alliance with Jiangdong, the infiltration of Yangzhou Shanyue and Jiaozhou scholars has never stopped.

Even the Changsha Man often plundered the people of Yangzhou.

The main thing is to make trouble behind you.

of course
For Jiangdong, after the alliance, Liu Chan's movements were naturally much lighter.

Come secretly.

But for Wei Guo, there is no such need.

"After the death of Cao Pi, the strong and powerful of the land of Qingxu are afraid that trouble will happen. I will add some fuel to his fire about the business alliance. I can't make Cao Pi too happy."

During the Chuping and Xingping years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the landlords in the north rose up in arms.Those who master this kind of armed force, some are from aristocratic families, some are big and small;

The Haoba forces in the Qingxu area, represented by Zang Ba, are one of the important ones.

This force loomed in the history of the Han and Wei dynasties, and played a role from time to time for more than [-] years, affecting the political situation at that time.

Liu Chan's secret agent in the inter-military division of Wei State had known the news early.

After the death of Wei Wang Cao Cao, the Qingzhou soldiers stationed in Luoyang and the Xuzhou soldiers who were Zang Babie's army rioted and went without permission. Now, Cao Pi dared not stay in Xudu, but went to Luoyang to stabilize the situation .

Zang Ba has a special status in Qingxu Haoba.He is not only one of the guardians of Qingxu like all the tyrants, but also the leader of Qingxu.

Cao Cao then cut off Qingxu Erzhou and attached it to the sea to appoint Yan.

The so-called tyranny of Qing and Xu Erzhou committees is vague and can only be understood as an expedient disposal.

From Zang Ba's point of view, this kind of expedient disposal shows that he has a strong potential influence in these two states, otherwise it will not be enough to stabilize the place; In the meantime, maintain the status quo for the time being and stabilize the East.

Qingxu Haoba is nominally serving as the emperor, but in fact he is in a semi-independent state. Among them, Changxi (Changba) surrendered or rebelled, capricious, and Cao Cao repeatedly attacked him. This is the so-called "five It is a matter of attacking prosperity and hegemony".

The Qingzhou soldiers composed of the conquered Yellow Turbans were very similar in nature and status to the Zang Ba and other troops whose main components were the incorporated Xuzhou Yellow Turbans.

The difference is that Qingzhou soldiers have already left the ground of Qingzhou, and they are fighting everywhere under the direct control of Wei Wu, and the possibility of independent activities is less; while Zang Ba and other troops are still entrenched in Xuzhou, and part of Qingzhou is also controlled by Wei Wu. It can be dispatched at will, and there is more room for independent activities.

Before Cao Cao was alive, these two parts of the army were still able to accept control without major problems; as soon as Cao Cao died, conflicts erupted immediately.

Whether Cao Pi responds appropriately will have a major impact on the situation.

This is the biggest crisis since Cao Pi took the throne.

And when competitors are going through a crisis, how can Liu Chan not add fire?
"But we have already made an alliance with Wei, so if we do this, will it be possible?"

Ah Hui, who was sitting behind Liu Chan, said worriedly.

In order to win Liu Chan's trust, Ah Huinan was willing to go all out.

Seriously literate, wanted to learn from Lu Meng, the governor of Jiangdong, and gave Liu Chan a shock of "Scholar farewell for three days" that belonged to him.

Naturally, Liu Chan highly appreciated the aggressiveness of his generals, and asked Ah Hui to accompany him.

"Don't worry, general, we are the enemy's country with Wei! The so-called covenant is just a piece of paper. Wei's soldiers lost a lot, and Cao thief died of illness. He was too busy to take care of himself and was unable to attack our Jingzhou; and we waited for food and grass. Unfortunately, the soldiers wanted to return, and it snowed heavily in winter, so they could not attack, so the covenant ceased fighting. When the time comes to fight, what is the binding force of this covenant?"

Between countries, there are always only interests.

There is nothing honest about it.

Liu Chan smiled lightly and said, "If Cao Pi doesn't respond properly, causing a military disaster in Qingxu, then it's time for us to attack Wei and welcome His Majesty back!"

It is not good to attack in winter.

Without food and grass, if you send troops rashly, once you are defeated or surrounded, you will lose everything.

but.
If Wei Guo is really in civil turmoil, Liu Chan will take a huge risk and send troops to Wei Guo!

The big deal is that the people in Jingzhou will suffer no matter how much they suffer because of food for the enemy.

Sometimes, this kind of fighter opportunity is once in a lifetime!

Now it is Cao Pi who has not been able to secure the position of King Wei. After he is firmly seated, there will be no chance of this kind of domestic turmoil in Wei.

For a giant like Wei Guo, it is impossible to beat him down without taking some risks.

As soon as he heard that there was going to be a war, Ah Huinan became very excited.
"If there is a war, please ask your highness to order me to be the vanguard!"

Liu Chan chuckled and said, "With Cao Pi's ability, it's not easy for Wei Guo to want chaos."

Cao Pi is still capable.

What's more, under his command, there are countless talented people with lofty ideals. As long as he is not like Yuan Shao, every adviser listens to and does a little.

"Wen Wei, in the past few days, you have been asked to collect prices in various places in Nanyang. How is the situation?"

Prices are closely related to the common people.

As long as the most basic prices are stabilized, the people will naturally be happy, and the impression of Liu Chan in the hearts of the people will naturally not be bad.

Fei Yi got up quickly, holding a volume of books in his hand, and read: "The prices of the various counties in Nanyang vary, but according to the method taught by His Highness, the average is as follows:

Good rice is 450 qian per stone, millet is 300 renminbi, barley is 250 renminbi, chestnut rice is 220 renminbi, grain rice is 220 renminbi, ten catties of meat can be exchanged for one shi of grain. "

Liu Chan nodded after listening.

"Based on this, the price of grain and rice in Nanyang is not too high."

The price of grain and rice calculated by Fei Yi is actually only a rough idea.

It's different in different places, and it's all converted into five baht, so it's even more different.

Due to the excessive issuance of five baht coins by the government, the common people barter more and rarely use five baht coins.

"A bucket of fine wine is 50 yuan, a bucket of rice wine is 20 yuan, and a bucket of wine is 10 yuan. A piece of linen is 400 yuan, a piece of silk is [-] yuan, a horse is [-] yuan, and a horse is [-] yuan. Money. Two thousand and two hundred dollars for training a horse.”

Fei Yi is worthy of being a capable minister.

The task Liu Chan gave was only a few days, so he carefully reported all kinds of prices.

"Great fertile land costs ten thousand yuan per mu; medium land costs two to three thousand yuan per mu; barren land costs two to three hundred yuan per mu. Mansions in Wancheng cost more than one million yuan; better mansions cost 10,000+ to 20 yuan Between money, ordinary houses, between [-] and [-] yuan"

Even the price of land and houses, Fei Yi also did a survey.

After Liu Chan listened, he couldn't help feeling emotional.

Compared with rice, meat, grain and oil, real estate has to make money!
When he heard about a million-dollar mansion in Wancheng, Liu Chan wanted to do some real estate business in Wancheng for a moment, and cut the flesh of the common people, but after thinking about the times and the current situation, he quickly put this The mind is extinguished.

No one.

What real estate?

There is no one tilling the land!
"It seems that grain is transported from Jiangzhou, meat is transported from Wuling and Changsha, and Jingjin is transported from Jiangling. Even after the war in Nanyang County, the prices have finally stabilized."

As long as prices are stable, there will be no chaos.

He wants to practice the law of the business alliance in Nanyang, but he wants to see who dares to touch his bad luck at this time!
Guanzhong.

Changan.

Bounded by Daxing'an Mountains, Yanshan Mountains, Taihang Mountains, Western Henan Mountains, Wudang Mountains, Wushan Mountains, Wuling Mountains, Xuefeng Mountains, Yuecheng Mountains, and Jiuwanda Mountains, the world can be divided into western mountainous areas and eastern plains.

Chang'an is located in the Guanzhong Basin to the west of this dividing line. To the north is the Loess Plateau, to the west is the Guanzhong Basin, the Gansu-Shaanxi-Qingdao area and the Hexi Corridor to the west, to the south across the Qinling Mountains is Hanzhong, and from Hanzhong to the south of Micang Mountain , it is the Sichuan Basin known as the "Land of Abundance", and Tongguan, which goes east to the big bend of the Yellow River, is what the ancients called the Kanto region.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period, most of the vassal states were concentrated in the Kanto region, and there was only Qin in Guanzhong.

Since the rise of the Han Dynasty, most of the country's major counties have been concentrated in Kanto and Jiangnan. Guanzhong is mainly used as the capital of the country. There are no large counties to the west of Chang'an, and the economy is relatively backward, so it is impossible to form a separate regime.

Dong Zhuo's move to Chang'an should also have such considerations.After the imperial court moved westward, if the princes of the Guandong were undefeated, they could still use the mountainous area in western Henan and the big bend of the Yellow River as barriers to guard the west of the Guanxi and establish another Qin State.

If this Qin State of the Dong family can go south to Hanzhong and take Bashu, it will be even more powerful. When Dong Zhuo moved westward, he also moved millions of people from the Central Plains to Chang'an. The original problem of insufficient human resources in Chang'an was solved.

It's just that Dong Zhuo was able to trouble the world but not govern the world, and made a mess of the world, so he was killed by Lu Bu, who "painted a halberd on Fang Tian and stabbed his foster father".

After Dong Zhuo's death, Li Jue, Guo Si and others were even worse saboteurs, killing around Chang'an, and Chang'an was greatly damaged.

After the Li-Guo Rebellion, "a grain of dendrobium is worth 50 yuan, and people eat each other."

When Cao Cao won Guanzhong, a whole set of policies continued, and Zhong Yao went to take charge of Guanzhong affairs, which finally restored Chang'an's popularity.

of course
Most of the people in Chang'an are from the Qiang and Di ethnic groups, but there are not many Han people.

In Chang'an City.

General Beizhong Lang and Xiaoqi General Cao Zhang are furious at this moment!
"Father Wang passed away, I just found out now?"

After Cao Cao died, Cao Pi deliberately concealed the news of Cao Cao's death in order to have more preparation time.

Buy yourself more time.

of course
This news can be concealed for a while, but it cannot be concealed for a lifetime.

Huang Xu'er Cao Zhang also had an eyeliner in Xudu, when the news came, Cao Zhang exploded immediately!

He didn't know that it was him, brother Zihuan, who was guarding against him!
Now he is guarding the pass, with one hundred thousand troops!

As for the land of Qingxu, after the death of the father, there was news of a change.

Afraid that I will take away his throne as King of Wei?

But I have already said in front of my father: I would like to be a general.

He, Cao Zhang, wants to follow the example of great generals like Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, leading hundreds of thousands of people to gallop across the desert, expel the Rong and Di, and make meritorious deeds, which is much more enjoyable than being the king of Wei!
But why are you still guarding against me?

Brother, still can't be trusted?
Cao Zhang clenched his fists tightly and said to the left and right: "Tomorrow, all Chang'an soldiers will go to Luoyang to suppress the land of Qingxu!"

He wants to bring an army of [-] to seek justice from his good brother!
I didn't want to be the King of Wei!
But you are so guarded against me, how can I do Wei Qinghuo Qubing?

How to seal the wolf to live in Xu?

Since you can't do it?
Then your bird position will be taken away, and in the future, the royal driver will personally conquer, and you will be the emperor immediately!
"General calm down, general, think twice!"

An old man in an official robe with an old face hurried forward to grab Cao Zhang.

"There will be turmoil in the land of Qingxu, I am going to serve the king, why not? Why do we need to think twice?"

If it hadn't been for Zhong Yao, a 68-year-old man, who was holding him back, he would have already kicked him.

"You are not allowed to lead troops out of Guanzhong without the king's order. Besides, the King of Hanzhong is spying on Guanzhong in Hanzhong. If the general leads his troops to Luoyang, wouldn't he be surrendering Chang'an to Liu Xuande? General, please think again!"

Zhong Yao was born in the Zhong family of Yingchuan.He was born in Xiaolian, served successively as Shang Shulang and Huangmen Shilang, assisted Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to return to Luoyang, and was granted the title of Marquis of Dongwuting.After gaining the trust of Cao Cao, the prime minister who was in power, he served as the captain of Sili and guarded Guanzhong. He made outstanding contributions and was compared to Xiao He.

But now he is tired.

Liu Bei was spying on Guanzhong in Hanzhong. Although he did not send troops to attack, all kinds of gossip in Guanzhong were flying all over the sky, and some people made troubles from time to time. In response to Liu Bei, he wanted to go to suppress it.

As a result, the matter in this pass has not been clarified. Cao Zhang, who guards Chang'an, is going to quit, and even take the Chang'an defenders to Luoyang?
Isn't this to fight for a position?
If Wei domestic turmoil
How can it be done!

The anxious look on his face was not concealed at all.

"The general is outside, and the king's life is not accepted! You don't need to say more!"

Seeing that it was useless to be tough, Zhong Yao immediately played the emotional card.

"Guanzhong is where the king's painstaking efforts were. If Guanzhong falls because of the general's anger for a while, the king will not be able to rest in peace under the nine springs. I hope the general will think twice!"

When Cao Cao was mentioned, the anger on Cao Zhang's face dissipated a lot.

"Hey~"

He sighed and said, "Then I will take ten thousand elite soldiers there!"

If this tone is not straightened out, even if he dies, he will not be able to rest in peace!
He wants to see if his elder brother can kill Huang Xu'er?
