Chapter 108 Wanyan Zonghan is also a bit of a pain in the ass
The food income of these seven routes reached 5 million shi (600 million catties).
According to the previous scale, the food income of these seven groups was at least 15 million shi.
When the Changping Division (local grain storage department) is promoted in various places, nearly half of the grain will be hoarded as a reserve and as part of the welfare of officials' salaries.
There are still 7.5 million shi to be transported to the capital. Taking into account the consumption on the road, it is reasonable to arrive at 5 million shi.
Zhao Ning waved his hand, and all 5 million stones of grain were invested in Hedong and Hebei.
All rushed to the front line.
Don't tell me how much of this will be wasted. If it is thrown at the front line, there will be no waste.
Spend money, food, and people. I don’t believe we can’t break out this line of defense.
The grain amount reached 5 million gu, and the cash income reached 10 million gu.
The total cash income of these seven channels was 20 million yuan, accounting for almost half of the cash income of the Song Dynasty.
However, the 5 million guan left in various departments to promote the Changping Division paid official salaries, and the remaining 5 million guan was used to offset the grain that had been exchanged from merchants in China and France.
That is the current food reserves of the entire Gyeonggi Road.
Almost all of this grain was exchanged for China and France from Lianghuai, Southeast, and Jinghu this year.
In this exchange method, merchants directly transport the grain, which is very efficient and can solve urgent needs.
The cash has reached 10 million yuan?
Sending 5 million guan to Shaanxi, and then telling Zhang Jun to send another 5 million guan to the Sino-French exchange in Shaanxi.
It’s okay to misappropriate taxes for temporary emergency use, but remember to fill up the account.
As a leader, you may not know how to do business, but you must not know how to settle accounts.
If you make a mistake in calculating the accounts, you will be punished at the least, or dismissed from office at the worst.
After giving Zhang Jun this authority, Zhao Ning turned around and gave it to Li Gang.
You just take my holy edict and temporarily appropriate it locally to prevent the court from collecting the cash from Hebei East Road and Jingdong East Road and transporting it there.
Including Wang Zonglio's 1.99 million yuan, Zhao Ning currently has 9.4 million yuan in hand.
Keep smashing, didn’t Zongze have a budget of 10 million yuan?
I spent 5 million guan before, and I will spend another 5 million guan. If I say 10 million guan, it is 10 million guan. I can’t miss a penny.
Of the remaining 4.4 million guan, Shaanxi spent 1 million guan, and the Eastern Front spent another 3 million guan.
The rest should be filled in locally through taxes and immigration laws.
Why is the center line not filled with taxes and entry laws?
The Hedong Road and Hebei West Road in the middle line have been completely devastated. The imperial court even exempted them from taxes, let alone taxes and entry into China.
Zhao Ning could only keep throwing money away.
By the end of August, the summer heat has passed, and even the raging autumn tigers have disappeared without a trace. The leaves on both sides of the Imperial Street in Tokyo have withered and turned yellow, fluttering in the wind.
People on the streets also put on thick clothes.
At the ferry crossing of the Bianhe River, there is an endless stream of boats coming and going.
Whether it is food or salary destined for the front line, it is all shipped from here.
It enters the Yellow River from the Bianhe River and reaches Shaanxi, Damingfu and Hebei East Road.
Sun Fu, who had returned from Shaanxi, came to the palace to see his Majesty.
"Your Majesty, I have met Brother Richard, but I have not met Xia Lord Li Qianshun. I have neglected my duty."
"The Golden Envoy is in Xixia?"
"exist."
"I don't blame you for not seeing Li Qianshun, he doesn't dare to see you."
"Now?"
"Xi Xia will not make rash decisions at this stage. He is sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers and tigers."
Sun Fu didn't quite understand, so Zhao Ning said concisely and concisely: "If we lose next time, he will definitely go south with his army and invade Shaanxi."
"If we hold on, he will hesitate to take advantage of our vitality to go south, or sit still and join forces with the Song Dynasty to fight against the Jin Dynasty. At this time, cooperation with Brother Richard's interests will play a big role."
When Sun Fu heard this, he was shocked.
So that’s it, His Majesty the Emperor is really far-sighted!
On the first day of September, in the Marshal's Mansion in Youzhou, Yanyun.
Gao Qingyi came back from Xixia and went to the Marshal's Mansion to see Wanyan Zonghan.
"marshal."
"How about it? Will Li Qianshun agree to send troops to attack Song Dynasty together?"
"Li Qianshun did not make a clear statement."
"What did he mean?"
"Don't he want Shaanxi?"
"He obviously didn't believe we would give him Shaanxi."
Wanyan Zonghan was a little annoyed. It was true that he would give it to Xixia and Shaanxi. He would really give it to him.
But Xixia didn’t believe it.
If you don't believe it, you won't send troops. If you don't send troops, you will just sit around and watch the fun.
Gao Qingyi said: "Marshal, Xixia is not willing to send troops, so there is no need to force it. After we take Shaanxi, we will reward the land of Shaanxi to Xixia and let this mad dog stay in peace. As long as they do not interfere with us to destroy the Song Dynasty, we will destroy the Song Dynasty. Let’s settle the accounts with the party members again.”
Wanyan Zonghan nodded and said, "This is the only way for now."
"Marshal, when I went to Xixia this time, I also found out the news that the Song Dynasty had stationed 500,000 troops in Shaanxi."
"Who told you this?"
"Li Qianshun."
"The spies on the front line have sent a piece of news about Shaanxi, which is exactly what you said. I just started to suspect that this was false information deliberately released by the Song Dynasty. From this point of view, it seems to be somewhat true."
Wanyan Zonghan thought for a moment and said, "Send this matter back to Shangjing quickly and report it to Banbo Jilie."
"yes."
Gao Qingyi had just gone to make arrangements. Not long after, Shi Liai came in.
"Marshal, there is news from the south that Zhang Bangchang has returned to power."
"Return to power?"
"He voluntarily surrendered to Zongze, and he has been taken to Tokyo."
Wanyan Zonghan was furious: "Zhang Bangchang, this useless fool, when I take Bianjing, I will be the first to take action on you!"
Wanyan Zonghan's original plan was to attack the Song Dynasty in three directions.
Attack Cangzhou all the way, capture Hebei East Road and Jingdong East Road, and penetrate the Eastern Front Defense of the Song Dynasty.
As long as the defense on the eastern front is broken through, we can go south and enter the Lianghuai Road, Jiangnan Road, and Liangzhe Road, which were the most prosperous in the Song Dynasty.
The other road started from Hejian Mansion and headed south towards Bianjing City, hanging at the heart of the Song Dynasty with a sharp military front.
The drama of the King of Qin all over the country will inevitably be staged again, which can interrupt the overall military deployment of the Song Dynasty.
The third route started from Taiyuan and went south to attack Luoyang.
Longde Mansion (Shangdang County) is the gateway to the north of Luoyang. Longde Mansion is in the hands of Zhang Bangchang, which means that the Jin army can stock up on food there before going out and use it as a forward position to attack the Song Dynasty.
In this way, taking Luoyang is like searching a bag to retrieve something.
But what Wanyan Zonghan didn't expect was that such a naughty Zhang Bangchang would take the initiative to kneel down and lick the Song Dynasty in the blink of an eye.
This immediately disrupted his plan.
You know, once Luoyang is penetrated, the Jin army can detour into the Xuchang area.
Xuchang is the hinterland of the Central Plains, south of Bianjing.
If the Jin army reaches Xuchang, Nanjing Yingtian Mansion (Shangqiu) will be in danger.
Not only that, Xuchang is only one Funiu Mountain away from Nanyang.
If we cross Funiu Mountain and enter Nanyang, our frontline can be directed towards Xiangyang.
Once Xiangyang was also captured by the Jin army, one of the richest places in the south, the Jianghan Plain, the land of plenty, fell under the iron hooves of the Jin army.
If all three Jin armies go smoothly, even if Zhao Ning defends Tokyo City again, it will not help.
After all, the richest places in the Song Dynasty were ravaged, and the overall national strength was greatly damaged.
Even if the Jin army withdraws again, the east, west, north and south of Tokyo will be devastated, and Bianjing will really be just an isolated city.
At that time, Tokyo had no value in defending and had no choice but to retreat south.
But now the problem has arisen. Longde Mansion has been taken back by the Song Army, and the time to go to Luoyang will inevitably be postponed.
The Song Dynasty had accumulated a large number of troops in Shaanxi and was very powerful. If they did not send an elite division to attack Shaanxi, the Shaanxi Song army would definitely take advantage of Wanyan Zonghan's move south to attack Taiyuan.
Once Taiyuan was captured by the Western Army of the Song Dynasty, the two towns of Zhongshan and Hejian were exposed to the front of the Song Army.
