Win the Ding 1617

() The unscrupulous amount of pig's feet finally exposed the true colors of waging war!It turned out that it was not for upholding justice! ?

In autumn, the main authority is to kill seriously. Since ancient times, due to the influence of factors such as harvesting and agricultural production, wars are generally carried out in autumn, and the main reason is food.In this season, whether in the south or the north, all kinds of food crops are harvested and put into warehouses, and the preparations for military rations and horse feed are relatively light. Therefore, there are descriptions such as autumn tall horses and manure, and autumn soldiers on the battlefield.

Beginning on August [-]th, the South Central Army began preparations and mobilization for war.

After several years of education and the baptism of reality, people in Nanzhong's impression of war has gradually changed from fear and disgust to mediocrity, until now, after hearing the mobilization order to go north to crusade against the traitor Zheng's family , Almost people from all walks of life are rejoicing.

Merchants know that the South China Army will not do such things as massacres and massacres. They will not do such things that destroy the market. Therefore, for merchants, war is the expansion of the market, the growth of trade, and the income increase.Of course, the taxes that need to be paid will also increase accordingly.

Farmers know that fighting a war means that their pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, dried fish, and cured bacon will be bought, and the rice in the barn will be taken away by carts and stored as military rations. .In exchange for a jingling coin, or a very fine and beautiful cloth printed and dyed.

The workers in the factory know that fighting the war means that their products will increase significantly. According to the agreement on piece wages, their income, food subsidies, overtime pay, etc. will also increase significantly.

The students of Zhengshitang know that once they succeed in attacking northward, they will have a bigger and better room for development. This can be seen from the experience of their seniors. Every time they expand their territory, a large number of village and town chiefs They will have the opportunity to be promoted, and individual first-term students have already sat in a seat similar to the prefect of the mainland.The future is bright!

Even Ruan Fuying and his subordinates were extremely excited. Taking down Thang Long can be regarded as avenging themselves. Moreover, according to the lord's usual practice, wherever they hit, the roads and bridges will be repaired. We will have a lot of money and food to earn again!

"What will we gain from this battle? The arable land in the Red River Plain? Or the wealth in Shenglong City? Or the people under the Zheng family?"

When Shou Han was mobilizing his civil and military officials, he tapped the Zheng family territory map on his back very seriously, which clearly marked towns, rivers, mountains, forests, fields, as well as minerals, population, etc. information.This is the map that the people in the Business Office of the Hanyuan Company spent countless manpower and material resources, and it took four years to complete the map. To put it bluntly, I am afraid that the prince of the Zheng family in Shenglong may not be able to understand the situation of his own territory. Do it so clearly.

Thang Long is located in the northwest corner of the Red River Delta on the map, on the right bank of the Red River and at the confluence of the Red River and the Suli River, not far from the ocean, where the flag of the right wing of the Nanzhong Navy has been marked.Zuo Tianpeng's ten gunboats had already gone north on August 25th, cruising in this area, and blocked this sea area.

"My lord, Biaoxia and others think that land and wealth are the same thing, but population is what the lord urgently needs!" Wang Bao, sitting on the right hand, stood up first to speak.

"Land, there is no shortage of land in our Nanzhong Army area. What is lacking is people who can reclaim and plant these lands. According to the words of the lord, they are labor forces. As for the wealth in Shenglong City, in the past few years, under the mark Waiting under the command of the lord, the north and the south have been conquered, and I have seen some things in the world. If I think about it, the wealth in Shenglong City may not be much more than that in Champa, Chenla, etc.! Therefore, the purpose of this battle is to mark my humble opinion. It’s not about occupying the land, it’s not about the wealth in Thang Long City, we only need the population!”

When Shou Han heard Wang Bao's speech, his eyes were very appreciative, and he nodded, "Ah Bao has not only recovered his health in the past few months, but also read some books. That's right! The books are It must be read, but it is not for reciting poems and fus, playing some word games, and groaning without illness. You must find out the principles of governing the country and the world from it!"

"However, Ah Bao is only talking superficially. In my opinion, the population is actually secondary! The main purpose of our war is for this thing!"

Speaking of this, all the civil and military officials present, including the high-level executives of the Craftsman Association, were all moved. What else is there in the Zheng family's territory that the lord wants to remember, so you must seize it and then hurry up?!With He Jing's wealth and the wealth accumulated in the treasury, what other products can be placed in the eyes of the lord?

When everyone watched eagerly as Shou Han took out an object wrapped in a silk handkerchief from his sleeve, and carefully spread it on the table, everyone was amazed!

That's a lump of coal!

coal?!

"This! This?" Some people present couldn't help but wonder.

"It's strange?!" Shouhan wiped the coal dust on his hands with a hot towel brought by his own soldiers, "This is coal from the Zheng family's Guang'an, Haining and other coal fields. This area spans hundreds of miles. They are all coal. The coal produced has high calorific value, low ash content, no smoke, and high quality! Have you ever thought that it is this little black lump that our Nanzhong, guns, weapons, armor, and farm tools are all made of? Where does the iron and steel needed come from? Even in the water and dry fields, most of the materials that are suitable are derived from this thing."

The head of the workshop, Ling Zheng, the director of the metallurgical workshop, stood up abruptly, "That's right! No wonder my lord has asked us to store coal for at least half a year, just for today!"

"It's not just that we are going to fight today. You can think about it. It's not just steelmaking, fertilizer making, cement burning, brick burning, ceramics, glass, printing and dyeing, which industries that make everyone make a lot of money can't be separated from. This thing? It means that you no longer use firewood to cook water and cook in your home?!"

Speaking of this, everyone present was clear-eyed, ah!This thing has already entered various fields of the national economy and the people's livelihood in the territory of the Nanzhong Army. Even if the incident of Zheng Jiamou's rebellion did not happen, his lord would not place this important lifeline in the hands of others. If the army turned against them and cut off the coal supply, the fun would be great.

Therefore, the matter of the Zheng family's regicide and seizure of the throne is just a high-sounding excuse. If there is no matter about the coal field, the lord feels that it is too much to give others a handle, and you can't sleep and eat every day, so you won't care about your regicide If you don't kill the king, which one of you treats yourself as a crazy emperor and doesn't care about me?!

However, as the saying goes, if you are innocent and you are guilty, who gave you the strategic materials I desperately need on your territory?!If I don't hit you, which one will I hit?!

"Willing to serve the lord!"

The adults present all stood up and sang.

Shou Han nodded in satisfaction, and then shook his head again, "It's not for me, it's for my Ming Dynasty. The Li family is the Annan Metropolitan Envoy officially appointed by my Ming Dynasty. We sent troops this time to fight for rebellion, just to uphold the law. And order. In order to achieve this goal, Li Peilin, you should contact the Mo family in Gaoping and ask them to send troops to the south to harass the Zheng family's backside. On the day of success, his benefits will be indispensable."

Everyone was secretly delighted, how could this be to maintain law and order!This is for our own purse!But the lord is the lord, no matter how unscrupulous things are, they can find a fair reason to come out.

Soon, the huge and efficient war machine of the General's Mansion started running quickly.

Zheng Zhang sat in the posthouse a little depressed, watching helplessly as the people from the Law Enforcement Office happily pulled out the more than 40 hidden stakes, large and small, that he had worked so hard to develop in Hejing'an over the past few years. Bao Zhongchen at the office sent someone to send a greeting card, with a few large characters written in ink dripping on it, "It's not that I won't catch it, the time has not yet come. When the time comes, I will be in a pot!"

He walked out of the posthouse with his servants, and the law enforcement team sent by the Law Enforcement Department did not stop him, but a few people followed them not far or near, claiming that they were ordered by their superiors to protect the envoy's safety. <Qiugu Gentleman's Wind. "Zheng Zhang shook his head, he didn't know whether he said it helplessly or approvingly.

Walked to the street and walked towards the commercial port. The market here seemed not to be affected by the news of the war.The shops are still doing business as usual, and the crowds are still crowded, and the porters of the natives are still chanting in a low voice, carrying a large amount of goods and sending them to various places.

There was the sound of rumbling wheels crushing the ashes on the road, and someone yelled in the distance: "Excuse me, please let me go! Let me go!"

As the sound approached from far away, a long convoy appeared in people's sight. The carts were full of grain sacks stacked high on the carts. The driver shook his whip proudly, and the wooden wheels rattled. Crashed by the rattle, a small flag on the shaft of the grain cart read clearly, Northern Expedition Army Grain.

"How much food is this!" a passer-by sighed among the crowd.Hundreds of vehicles have passed by in the long convoy, and they are still living without end, and the sound of wheels is still rumbling in the distance.

"How much food? Let me tell you, a bag of rice is about one hundred catties, and there are about fifteen or six bags in this car. That is, in our Nanzhong, there is a character chosen by the gods like the Lord, how many wonderful ideas and ingenious workmanship Steel springs and decompression plates were installed on the car, otherwise, this car would never have transported so much grain! If you count it, more than 200 cars have passed, which is hundreds of thousands of catties Food!"

"Where did the food come from?"

"I don't know? Let me tell you, this is the rice shipped from the treasury, and it is shipped directly to the northern front, and then the rice purchased from various places is added to the treasury."

"This? One hundred miles and one hundred catties are lifted one by one, such a toss, the loss on the road, the food of the migrant workers, such a toss, how much is the food?!"

"Hey! You're new at first glance! Let me tell you..."

He does not mean that.

Hearing the passers-by's comments, Zheng Zhang's heart skipped a beat.

When those big cars passed by his eyes just now, he was a little surprised. The axles were shining brightly, emitting a metallic brilliance. It was obvious that the axles were made of all-steel, and the rumbling wheels, A layer of steel was also wrapped on the wooden wheels, and then some rivets were added to the steel. "This kind of car can only be so extravagant by a person like the little thief from the Li family who spares no expense. The car is made of high-quality nine-turn steel! This kind of car can carry more than 1000 catties of grain. It seems that it is still very easy. I don’t know. If it is fully loaded, will it reach two thousand catties?"

Zheng Zhang also used to be in charge of the transfer department in the Zheng family, and he is well aware of the various disadvantages in the transportation of military rations and supplies, such as drifting, loss, and damage. In the hands of the table, it would be good to have ten catties left.

"My lord, look, these vehicles are from Jiangnan." A servant whispered to Zheng Zhang.

Seeing the flag planted on the grain truck, Zheng Zhang's eyes suddenly went dark, his chest felt tight, and there was a sweetness in his throat. He knew that the situation was not good.

"Go back to Station X!"

After walking a few steps, Zheng Zhang couldn't hold on any longer, "Wow!" A mouthful of blood stained the front of his clothes red.Several servants hurriedly picked him up and went back to the post to rest, and asked the doctor to come and treat him.

"My lord, you, my lord?" From people wanting to know why their master became like this?

"It's self-defeating! Zheng Zhang thinks he's smart, and he can use this method to exhaust Qin's plan. In the end, he became the same as Zheng Guo back then, and became a way to strengthen Qin!"

When Ri Zhengzhang first arrived in Hejing, it happened that Shouhan pacified the Ruan family. In order to consume the military potential of Nanzhong, he consumed the steel money and food in the hands of Shouhan. It is almost effortless to transport the supplies to Ha Tinh.

In the current grain production area, from the chai stick in charge of Xu Huanshan at the southernmost point, to Hue, to Nha Trang, to Ha Tinh, a road that can run three carts in parallel has been formed. About forty miles away, there is a post station that can be used for rest and sharpening. Walking down thousands of miles, the biggest loss is only [-]%.

If the grain from the south is shipped by sea, the loss is so low that it can be ignored!

This kind of consumption, just by using money and food, the Nanzhong Army can consume itself to death!

What's more, the streets and alleys of the Nanzhong Army's appeal against rebellion have been posted everywhere. "Build the ambition of the world, report it to the imperial court, and bring peace to the people. However, the Li family has never heard of any major losses, and has not lost any morality. , The disaster is between the heaven and the earth, and anyone who is different will be sentenced to death. The arrogance of the arrogance makes the people look at the road! People with insight have to protect themselves, or hide in the mountains and forests, or retire from old and sick. I don't want to report the great kindness of my great son of heaven, and entrust the people of Anli to feed the proud soldiers of the native clan of Qinghua, to run rampant in the market, to plunder and rob in full view, and to kill good people in the downtown area during the day , Under the night, women were captured in the city. The people suffered so much that there was no way to complain! Today, there are people and officials in Shenglong begging for soldiers. Editing and repairing defense, although he has elite soldiers and is a good general, he is sincere and fearful every day, and he can't bear to kill without authorization. He only wants to serve the country. Sons and daughters in-laws, Weng Tong and Weng son-in-law. Today, I take the stability of the world as my duty, eliminate rebellious officials for Ming Dynasty, eliminate thieves for Annan, and feign hatred for the elders. Therefore, we sincerely invite all heroes from all walks of life to hunt in Shenglong."

To be honest, this essay on rebellion was poorly written. It neither scolded the Zheng family as beasts, nor did it have a writing style that could cure headaches. It was basically vernacular.However, the first time Zheng Zhang heard this proclamation, it was a few off-duty factory workers by the roadside who read this proclamation. Although they stuttered a bit, they read it coherently.

What a deal?!

Only then did Zheng Zhang recall that for many years, Shou Han has enforced literacy for soldiers and craftsmen in his territory, which is called "literacy literacy" here. The meaning of being blind.

What made everyone even more puzzled was that young children were forced to go to school. If school-age children did not go to school, those who became officials would be degraded and fined;In this way, whose children dare not go to school?

This is also one of the three tricks Shou Han implements in the new area, children are forced to read books, the sun is beautiful, and roads are built.It has become an invincible means in the new area.

Although the shortage of teachers has always been one of the problems that plagued Shou Han, years of perseverance have built a thousand In more than 100 schools, young children come to school during the day, and from one hour to one and a half hours at night, nearby soldiers and civilians come to read and write.

"Food and grass are plentiful, weapons are sharp, and the soldiers are all literate. The corn grass that was originally thought to be used for viewing is the best fodder for raising cattle and horses. Our army was harmed by my misinformation. Attack the Lao Kingdom with all our strength, and Shenglong City is just an empty city! In addition, the Mo family in the north is a deadly enemy with my Zheng family. When encountering such an opportunity, how could they not take advantage of it? Fight my Zheng family? If we don’t fight this battle, we’ve already lost it!”

Leaning against the head of the bed, Zheng Zhang drank the medicine one gulp at a time, talking to his confidants about his plans while drinking.

"Bring a pen and paper. I want to give the general a seal. My Zheng family is willing to surrender to the South Central Army. I am willing to follow Siam's example, pay the seal, pay compensation and cede the land. It is even possible to offer the princess as the general's concubine. The general retains the status of my Zheng family."

"My lord! This doesn't seem to be what we as courtiers should say." His confidant reminded Zheng Zhang in a low voice.

"I don't care, as long as I can save my Zheng family, no matter how difficult the terms are, a certain family will agree!"

The form was sent to Shouhan through the ceremony room, and within a few days, news came, "There is no need to seek peace! This time, our South China Army, together with the Li family and the Mo family's envoys, must Get rid of this dog for Annan!"

Hearing this, Zheng Zhang was speechless for a long time, he cupped his hands and bowed deeply to An Tianhong, "My lord, please forward the report to the general on your behalf, saying that the minister begged the general to show mercy outside the law, and spare me the Zheng family. Mrs. Zheng is willing to be a running dog for the general."

An Tianhong looked at Zheng Zhang very sympathetically, "Brother Zheng, you and I have known each other for many years, and we have a good personal relationship. The general asked me to bring you something, and he appreciates it very much. Waiting for a seat.”

"General Meng fell in love with me wrongly, but at that time, the great general of Japan had good means and transferred a large number of troops, horses, money, food and weapons to the west, and I mistakenly thought that he was going to conquer Laos and compete with my family for the territory of Laos, so he sent false news by mistake, which made our army Jing After attacking the city and pulling out the strongholds in Laos, and putting our Lord in a disadvantageous position, what face do you have to take up the high-ranking official given by the general?"

After hearing this, An Tianhong was speechless for a long time. Whose family has no loyal ministers?

"Okay! Mr. Zheng, I will beg my lord again next day and ask what he means. But, for the sake of our acquaintance for many years, today I will go all out to disobey military discipline and tell you about the money and food transferred from the West." The whereabouts of the weapons."

"Appreciate further details!"

"It is true that the material transferred to the west is not false, but it is not for the purpose of attacking Laos. Instead, these grains, grasses and weapons are first turned west, then turned south, boarded a boat from Nha Trang, went north to Guangxi, and handed them over to Gaoping, Laotian, etc. The Mo family in the street area, at this moment, I am afraid that the soldiers of the Mo family are using our Nanzhong army equipment to attack your master's city!"
