"Everyone pays taxes together. This is the basic principle of our Xiaoguo Army and cannot be changed. Even if it is an official, it is the most basic part of the reduction and exemption. I don't want the people under the Xiaoguo Army to be like the Dayan clan in the future.

He owned thousands of hectares of fertile land, but placed it in the name of officials, all of which were exempted from taxes." Zhao Xun said sternly.

In Zhao Xun's plan, the property of officials will be monitored in the future and will be sent to the bank for storage. Of course, in addition to accepting bribes, legal additional property is still possible. These will naturally be implemented in the future.

It seems that in addition to Huitong Money Bank, we must also take the lead in establishing a money bank. It is not a good thing to dominate the matter. Zhao Xun secretly thought. Although a large proportion of the rights and shares of Huitong Money Bank are in the internal affairs of the Zhao Wangfu.

Under the jurisdiction of the jurisdiction, the dominant forces will have bad influence.

"This matter has been set by the Government Department and has become customized."

"The second thing is that the Imperial Party was either exiled by Situ Lei, or placed on a false position with no right to speak, or placed in a remote place. You see, can you draw some talented and practical talents from it come out?

Of course, those officials with high reputation can also be brought in. Nothing else can be done. Let them come to the academy to teach scholars' knowledge, and it is also good to show off my face as Xiaoguojun." Zhao Xun was a little difficult to decide about this.

.Although this is a benefit, the disadvantages are not without them.

Pei Yi frowned first and said, "Lord, if you bring these imperial parties back, I'm afraid you'll be chanting in our ears every day, let us go to Luoyang to help the emperor. Even if the professors and scholars are taught, they will be loyal to the Emperor Dayan.

The most important thing is. I am afraid that they will not spit out the goods in their stomachs, but will instead encourage the scholars to do some messy things every day. Besides, my Xiaoguo Army is in contrast to the imperial court, and there are too many things to avoid. That's it.

We were reprimanded by the imperial court many times, and we were designated as chaos troops."

"Lord, don't underestimate these imperial parties. If Situ Lei had not used the emperor's name, if he had not been decisive in the way, he would have wanted to drive these imperial ministers out of the court and have been active. I'm afraid he would not have been so

It's easy. If we get to our place, we don't do many good things, we're afraid it's a lot of trouble."

Lu Ziliang and Yang Wangzhen did not agree with Zhao Xun's opinion very much. After all, these imperial parties and Xiaoguo Army are hostile in their governance. In addition, Xiaoguo Army is now like Situ Lei, and they are all people with great ambitions. They are absolutely

He will no longer surrender to the broken ship of Dayan. If these imperial parties are useful, Situ Lei will not drive them out of the power class.

Lu Ziliang said: "It's not that there are no talents in the Imperial Party, but these people are probably left by Situ Lei. In addition, these Imperial Party officials are afraid that they care more about the imperial edict. Even if they surrender.

Even if they are officials in remote and barren lands, they will do their own things according to the order. As for those who come after taking one move, they are afraid they are really incompetent."

Zhao Xun nodded and agreed with Lu Ziliang's words at that time. It seems that he was not thinking enough and thinking too simply. Since the benefits and disadvantages are equally present, and even the disadvantages are even greater, Zhao Xun extinguished and summoned them.

What it means. Of course, this does not mean that these imperial parties are not worth using at all. For those officials who have real skills and are willing to do practical things, Zhao Xun will still send people to win over them. Xiao Guojun really needs such officials

To conquer the world and defend the world, it depends on the army, but to govern the world, it depends on the civil servants. No one of the two wheels of the carriage can be missing.

"Zhao Xun, what do he want to do? He is not good at Zhao Wang, and he insists on going against us! Let Situ Wenqing continue to advance to Yanzhou without stopping! He sent an order to let Changwu Army go to the eastern part of Yongzhou,

Beware of the Xiaoguo Army of Jizhou. Do not go out easily.” Prince Yong’s mansion, Situ Lei ordered slowly, without any anger on his face as he should have.

"Prince, why don't you fight directly with it? The Xiaoguo Army at the southern end of Jizhou is only more than 25,000, and the Changwu Army will definitely win. If you defeat it, follow the trend and follow the trend with the Shenwu Army that defeated the Wuwei Army, plus Yanzhou Prefecture

The army can unite the three parties and attack the land of Jizhou in the north." Situ Qi asked in confusion. Although he was the marquis and Situ Lei's nephew, when he was discussing the matter, he still called the prince, not his uncle

.Situ Lei was very satisfied with this. We must clearly distinguish when it is public and when it is private.

Situ Lei explained with a smile: "The Xiaoguo Army will definitely not take action easily. At this moment, the abnormal movement was to slow down the speed of the Shenwu Army's marching so that Murong Cheng's cavalry would catch up. If we really ignore it, this

The Xiaoguo Army was determined to go south, and he was afraid that he would not leave if he was possessed. Zhao Xun decided to focus on actual interests rather than just a false reputation. If he really wanted to expand his territory in Yongzhou, he would be a life.

I will hit me in the face of King Yong.”

"But if we take action, the Xiaoguo Army will not give in. After all, the combat power of the Xiaoguo Army is famous all over the world. Don't forget that the place of Yongzhou is still a suitable place for horses to gallop. Xiaoguo

The cavalry is so sharp that we can't resist. Even if we defeat these 25,000 people, what if we defeated these 25,000 people? The Xiaoguo Army has more than 200,000 troops, which is still an open amount. Now, we have another one with us.

Murong Cheng, who is comparable to each other, starts a war. If we choose another King Zhao who is comparable to ours, what will happen? Do you think Xu Jie dares to fight against Xiao Guojun?"

"The Yellow River is a natural danger, yes, but it is not very difficult for the Xiaoguo army to attack Yanzhou. If the Xiaoguo army really joins the war, the Xuzhou army, the Tang army, and even the Yanzhou prefecture army will immediately turn the gun head.

Attitude to us. So, what we have to do now is just to tell Xiao Guojun that we have seen through their plans, and at the same time, we are also prepared."

"What if the Xiaoguo Army joins the war? Wouldn't this be very unfavorable to us?"

Situ Lei sighed and said, "That's true. If the Xiaoguo Army participates in the war, we may suffer heavy losses. Of course, neither the Xiaoguo Army nor the Qi Wang Army will be able to get it. For the current Xiaoguo Army,

He was busy rectifying the northern Hus and developing his own strength. You should know that river management is not a joke. For this purpose, he dare not let it use the army to fight hard. In addition, the Marines are always a disaster. Zhao

Xun also wanted to take advantage of the war in the south to set his back garden first. According to our spies' reward, Zhao Xun was already preparing to take action against the Marines."

"Prince, because we expelled officials of the imperial party, many local officials are now a little dissatisfied. Do you need to clean it up? If this continues, local government affairs will sooner or later be bad." Lin Shucheng whispered.

Situ Lei slowly sat down and said to his confidants: "Do you think I was too hasty when I was doing it?"

Lin Shucheng, Ling Xiao, and Lin Shiwen were all silent. How could subordinates directly answer such questions?

"I understand, actually I also know that the action of eliminating the Imperial Guards and expelling officials of the Imperial Party was a bit too hasty. It is precisely because of this that although I contacted the Yanzhou Prefecture Army, the Xuzhou Army and the Tang Army, and joined forces to deal with Murong Cheng.

The hidden dangers are still very great, and they even have an impact on our foundation." Situ Lei said slowly.

In fact, as Situ Lei said, after the Imperial Guards were cut off, they would follow the original policy, and use the emperor's name to weaken Murong Cheng or Zhao Xun, instead of directly controlling the officials of the Imperial Party.

With one stroke, the light was shining, and the court was directly controlled by the open fire.

Although he used the emperor's name to order the princes to attack Murong Cheng, he washed away all the guilt and granted titles. For example, Xu Jie, the corruption of his reputation made it difficult to recruit Taoism and be useful.

But now, being an official under Xu Jie is no longer a traitor, but a dignified official from Dayan. Compared with Xu Jieyan, what he most hopes is to contact the imperial court's oppression on him, otherwise he would not have

Faced with the army of the King of Qi, Zhang Tao, the governor of Jiaozhou, he naturally wanted a great title that was beyond his power. Otherwise, how could he dare to compete with the King of Qi? But now, they all have them.

With the ambition to rise, I have a strange mind.

It's okay if the outside world is like this. After all, this has not caused direct harm to our side. Even if there is, it will be in the future. Although Xu Jie obeys Situ Lei now, Situ Lei cannot attack Xu Jie at will. After all, he just sealed it.

If the title is removed by Situ Lei in the blink of an eye, Situ Lei's reputation will be completely stinking. When Murong Cheng is defeated or Xu Jie takes control of Yanzhou, will Xu Jie listen to Situ Lei?

Needless to say, the answer would not have been heard by Situ Lei's order at that time.

Because of the attack on the Imperial Party, local officials were dissatisfied with Situ Lei. It was not because they had a good impression of the Imperial Party or had any relationship with the Imperial Party. However, Situ Lei's current actions are comparable to other princes.

For evil. Even Li Chi of the Xuzhou Army led his army to rebel just because of life. Even Zhao Xun, who was designated as a rebel, had never forced the court or the emperor. Not only that,

He also provided sacrifices and war horses to the court. In addition, Zhao Xun also made contributions to the Dayan. Although the Xiaoguo Army had different places under his command and had less taxes to pay, he was not in line with the court system, but before he was designated as a rebellion

, and he has always wanted the court to pay taxes.

So what now? Although the Xuzhou army was pardoned, Li Chi decided not to pay taxes and the court, nor would the Tang army. Even Xu Jie said bluntly that the battle in Yanzhou was too busy to take care of himself. As for Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiangzhou, where the imperial court's wealth source,

That is even more impossible. Now, even the cost of the court and the middle school has been reduced a lot. It can be said that in the past, no matter how hostile Situ Lei, Murong Cheng and Zhao Xun were, they did not fight head-on, but now,

Situ Lei triggered a war between various places, which can be said to have pushed Da Yan into the fire pit of civil strife.

Situ Lei sighed and said, "Actually, I know that doing this is too hasty. Not to mention that the Ministry of Revenue has no money, even our army cannot expand. But I still do this, do you know why.

?”

After stroking his chin with a slightly pale beard, Situ Lei continued, "Look at my beard and you will understand!"

Lin Shucheng, Lin Shiwen, and Ling Xiao were stunned and cold. It turned out that Situ Lei was really old. The three of them understood what Situ Lei meant. He wanted to cut himself and the left minister of the court first, or

For his own safety or to leave a foundation for the Situ family, he wanted to create a certain situation first.

"Don't worry, I haven't lost my fighting spirit yet. I just hope to fight to the death, take down Murong Cheng, the great enemy, and take over the Southeast wealth source under my command." Situ Lei Zhensheng said.

"Let the Liangzhou army start to come to Yongzhou, I need them and the Jinwu army to launch an action towards Jingzhou! The land of Jingzhou is the flank of Yangzhou and the defense line on the north side of Jiangzhou. As long as you attack Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiangzhou will be in the same place.

Within the range of attacks of our army, Murong Cheng could not dare to divide too many troops to go north, but instead would be like Jingzhou. If Zhang Tao showed a little more conspicuously, Murong Cheng would resist it from all sides." Situ Lei ordered in a deep voice.

.

"Let the people below pay attention. If they make too much trouble, they will sweep them into the corner. If they are stubborn or have actual actions, kill them!" Situ Lei said coldly.

"Prince, did you send an order to the Prince of Lingnan to borrow from him and let the troops stationed in Ningzhou enter Jiaozhou and assist them in the attack on Jiangzhou? If our people appear from Jiaozhou, then Murong Chengcai is truly in all directions.

Enemy.” Lin Shucheng suggested in a deep voice.

Situ Lei said: "I'm afraid this Lingnan prince will not agree. Do you have a fancy to the harbor and ships in Jiaozhou?"

Lin Shucheng nodded and said, "It is true that the land of Jiaozhou is not worth our deliberate struggle and attack, but the southern seaport is urgently needed. Whether it is to maintain the money and grain used by our army or block the sea area of ​​King Qi through the sea, it is extremely beneficial.

Now, because of the war between the states, the court has lost the taxes of the states in the world, which has made us bear all the money and food required by the court, which is really a big problem."

How could Situ Lei not know these? The two southern Jiaozhou governments have gained profits every year, and they don’t know how much they get. In addition, occupying the port of maritime trade made Situ Lei want to take it into his hands. However, this was Murong in the past.

In the name of the land, he cannot act at will. Now, he is under the jurisdiction of Zhang Tao, who is the most important part of the country, so he is afraid that it will be even more difficult to get it. If he moves here, he is afraid that the Lingnan prince will turn against him on the spot and instead leads to the

The King of Qi went south.

"Prince, let's not talk about the issue of planning the entrance to Jiaozhou for now. Even if we use troops on the back of Jiangzhou, we should persuade the Lingnan prince to accept our troops. Otherwise, we will make suggestions to see how many people the Lingnan prince can accept.

He was completely willing to do so. As long as Murong Cheng was brought down, can Jiaozhou be comparable to Yangzhou?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.

Situ Lei nodded and said, "It's so good, send someone to contact us. In addition, there are some government troops everywhere to guard the local area. Money is really a problem. I will let the lieutenant general save me over the years.

If our army is defeated, what's the use of keeping the money? Speaking of which, King Zhao is now the variable of all actions!"

Ling Xiao said: "The land in the north, the tribes of the Marine people are not willing to be gradually annexed by the King of Zhao. Furthermore, we have already given them suggestions. If they can counterattack the Xiaoguo Army, no matter where they occupy,

They are all their own. At the same time, we will involve some of the forces of the Xiaoguo Army in the south. Now, the Xiaoguo Army has gradually begun to strengthen the siege of the people of Yubei and increase immigration to Dingzhou, a newly established state, and develop

, the tribes of the Marine tribes were very worried. I think the tribes of the Marine tribes would not let Xiaoguo Army continue like this."

Situ Lei looked at the map behind him and said in a deep voice: "I hope so! But the battle between the Mariner and the Xiaoguo Army was fought, and the result was..."

Lin Shucheng smiled and said, "If the Marines fail, isn't this exactly what we want to see? The Marines and Marines both suffered losses and we will gain profits. If the Marines still have the strength, but delaying their plan to go south is also

It's successful."

…………

Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou was originally a barren land, but since the previous dynasty, it has encouraged maritime trade, which has gradually flourished the south. In addition, for hundreds of years, uninterrupted immigration to the south has also increased the population. It is often the same as the north.

Different from the invasion of foreign enemies and the frequent chaos in the Central Plains, Jiaozhou is located in the southernmost part and has a small degree of development. It has been rarely affected by external riots.

The most prosperous places in Jiaozhou are Guangzhou Prefecture and Huizhou Prefecture, and the rest of the inland areas are still relatively poor. Therefore, although the two places have been developing relatively prosperously, they have not been valued by the imperial court. In addition, Jiaozhou is also

People with many Tu ethnic groups do not have a very harmonious relationship with the Han ethnic group.

Guangzhou Prefecture, once known as the South China Sea or Nanyue, was changed to Guangzhou Prefecture in the previous dynasty. Jiaozhou Prefecture is here.

The former governor's office has now become the county prince's office. The former governor of Jiaozhou Zhang Tao is today the county prince of Lingnan. No matter what the officials and the people dismounted, Zhang Tao also has ambitions in his heart. But the north is the land of Jiangzhou.

.And Jiangzhou is the rank of King Qi.

Although he was determined to escape Murong Cheng's suppression, and although he wanted to take the place and lead the people around him like Xu Jie, Li Chi and others. But now he did it, it was not as simple as he imagined. The families of Jiaozhou were mixed and the relationship was chaotic.

In Jiaozhou, the Han people were still fewer than in other states. Moreover, in Jiaozhou, there were still insufficient weapons, armor and equipment. After a full calculation, Zhang Tao realized that the troops he could mobilize were only 70,000 to 80,000.

The man is still the expanded government army. As for how many Qi king army can resist, he himself has no confidence.

"Prince, Situ Lei has come to the secret envoy again and wants to borrow the opportunity! We say that the number of troops is willing to go with us..." Zhang Lin reported in a deep voice.

"Tell them back, I will handle the matters in Jiaozhou by myself, so that outsiders will not worry. Zhang Lin, don't contact with Situ Lei's people anymore. Compared with King Qi, this King Yong is even more cruel now." Zhang Tao said coldly.

Responded.

Damn, I want to have an idea for me, don't even think about it.

At the end of June, the envoy of the King of Qi also came to Shanyang Prefecture. At this time, Feng Ziming also reached an agreement with the Tang army to become a temporary alliance.

"Oh? The people of the King of Qi are here? I want us to attack from the back of Yanzhou. Since we have completed the agreement with the Tang army, we can get some benefits from the King of Qi." Feng Ziming said with a secret smile.

For Feng Ziming, Shanyang Prefecture is short of everything and is extremely scarce. Because refugees need to arrange entry, this consumes a lot of money and food. In addition, the implementation of the new policy has also reduced taxes in many places, which has led to the reduction of taxes in many places.

The people need to pay much less than before. Although the people are happy, the government is overwhelmed. Especially, Shanyang Prefecture has now oversupplied nearly 30,000 troops, which has made Feng Ziming unable to extricate himself.

.If it were not for the support of the Xiaoguo Army, it would be even more difficult to transport grain and grass through merchants to Shanyang Prefecture.

Therefore, when the envoy of the King of Qi came, Feng Ziming negotiated with the local government. Of course, he first complained. After all, Shanyang Prefecture is just a place of a mansion, although its jurisdiction is second only to Dongping Prefecture and is the second in Yanzhou.

It was a bit difficult for the Grand Mansion to resist the Tang army while also launching troops against Yanzhou.

The envoy of the King of Qi naturally knew his mission and knew the benefits that the Shanyang Mansion brought to the King of Qi's army. Naturally, he was very willing to persuade him, and everyone would solve the problem together.

Feng Ziming was waiting for the other party, so he cried to the other party that poor, without money or food, and in contrast, he could not raise a military force. It was not impossible for the army to move. Xu Jie abandoned us, and there was no need for us to do it.

I work hard. Of course, if the army moves, it will require money and food. We don’t have these.

For the envoy of the King of Qi, as long as the other party can reduce the pressure on Yanzhou, money and grain are naturally small matters. He also agreed to support Shanyang Prefecture's money and grain issue. For this reason, Feng Ziming finally got 100,000 grain and 5 silver coins.

A subsidy of 100,000. Of course, if the war continues to be delayed, then the King of Qi will continue to support it.

In response to this, Feng Ziming couldn't help but sigh in secret that King Qi was rich. He also knew that the Xiaoguo Army asked him for food. If it weren't for the difference between the weapons and the equipment and the grain, it would be easy to be discovered by caravan transportation.

Fearing that Feng Ziming wanted to ask for a large number of soldiers and armor. Once the battle started, soldiers and armor equipment were absolutely banned materials. Of course, Feng Ziming also proposed to collect the money first and then take action. Then transport it to Qingzhou through maritime merchants.
Chapter completed!
