Chang'an has established a banking system, and Chang'an's own industrial foundation is not weak. After a little more focus, the industry can develop rapidly. Through continuous growth of business, rather than relying on the small amount of taxes in the hands of the people, the Xiliang Army
It is a fact that the people under the rule are barren. After the tax reduction and exemption, it may become a little difficult in a short period of time. Once they adapt, they will develop rapidly. It is foreseeable how powerful the Xiliang army will become at that time.
The bank has brought more than one billion in money to the Xiliang Army. These are all in kind, not paper money. Jia Rong is also worried that excessive issuance of paper money will cause the devaluation of paper money in the hands of the people, and he is trying his best to control it, unlike some
Officials are so short-sighted that the more money they issue, the better.
He can do as much business as he has in his hands. Jia Rong doesn't want to be trapped by a businessman one day.
The war in Qingzhou once again brought the prelude to peace.
In Prince Liang's Mansion, Jia Rongduan sat in the top position and said: "Now, under our army's rule, there is peace, which is all due to your efforts. Now that the war in Qingzhou has begun, what do you think?"
A group of counselors understood that Jia Rong wanted to use force again. Jia Xu took the lead and said: "My lord has the land of Liangzhou and Bingzhou, Youzhou, Chang'an and Sanfu, but Youzhou is not at peace. Why not take advantage of this opportunity to completely wipe out Youzhou?"
, eliminating our army’s worries.”
Jia Rong nodded slightly. Jia Xu's words were good. Before, he was thinking about whether he could make a profit in Jizhou while Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were fighting.
Some counselors believe that they should develop their own strength now and wait for the world to change.
At this time, under the rule of the Xiliang Army, many counselors emerged. These people may not be well-known now, but as long as they are given a chance, they may become outstanding counselors.
Guo Jiadao: "The words of the military adviser are correct. Youzhou is not stable, so why talk about war lightly? Now Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are fighting in Qingzhou. With Yuan Shao's character, he must be heavily guarded to prevent our army from attacking. It is not known that we should attack."
Youzhou.”
"Liaodong Gongsundu refused to obey the orders and openly proclaimed himself a lord. The lord can attack in this name." Guo Jia added.
The two counselors agreed, and officials immediately agreed.
At first, Jia Rong thought that Jia Xu and Guo Jia agreed to attack Zhuojun, but now it turns out that he was wrong. In the land of Liaodong, even when Gongsun Zan was there, he did not surrender easily, mainly because of the poor climate in Liaodong, and
Under Gongsun Du's governance, no major mistakes occurred.
This kind of question can only be mentioned after the fact, which is also out of trust in the two great counselors.
"My lord, the Liang Prince's Palace has just exempted and exempted all the people's taxes. If we use military force, we may not be able to sustain food and grass. Please think carefully, lord." Seeing that the military force was about to start again, Zhang Li said hurriedly.
"Grain and grass?" Jia Rong asked: "Isn't there money in the warehouse? If there is not enough, just like a merchant buying it, the price can be slightly higher than usual."
Zhang Li bowed his head and said yes. Until now, Jia Rong had not used the money in the warehouse without permission. Zhang Li thought it was of some use, so the money exchanged by the bank was not used.
"However, the banknotes issued by the bank must be registered in detail. This is a major matter related to our army." Jia Rong said suddenly.
"No." Zhang Li cupped his hands and said.
The generals stood aside and watched all this leisurely. Making plans was not their specialty, but when they heard that there was a war, the usually lackluster generals' eyes shone brightly. War means military exploits.
"Well, since you all agree, let's first decide on the generals who will attack Youzhou." In the land of Youzhou, the Wuhuan people have already surrendered, and it will become much easier to pacify Youzhou with them leading the way.
After hearing these words, the generals in the room focused all their eyes on Jia Rong, and their eyes shone with light.
"General Huang Zhong was stationed in Youzhou, so he appointed him as the main general to attack Liaodong, and Zilong as the deputy general of the army. He ordered 10,000 troops and horses, waiting for orders." Jia Rong set his sights on Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said: "No."
"After the other generals return, they should work hard to train the soldiers, maintain them for a thousand days, and use them for a while. Don't make mistakes at the critical moment."
There was nothing more to say after that, which made the generals a little disappointed. At the same time, the little thoughts came to life. Zhao Yun is the deputy general of the army. It is impossible not to take the generals with him. Once he is selected by Zhao Yun, there is no need to go to the battlefield. For a while, Zhao Yun is there
The general became a hot figure in his eyes, and the general looked at him like a hungry man looking at a fair lady.
After the discussion, Jia Rong left Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Chen Zhen, Zhang Li and others behind. They were the core figures of the Xiliang Army. The other civil servants and counselors who had not entered this circle looked at them clearly with eager eyes. The generals
There are military commanders who pursue pursuits, but civil servants still do.
As soon as Zhao Yun returned to the mansion, he heard a servant reporting, "Ma Chao wants to see you."
Not long after the wedding, Zhao Yun was a little shy when he saw Ma Chao. In order to show how much he valued Zhao Yun, Jia Rong personally presided over the wedding and even ordered the craftsman's workshop to create a limited edition of Xianlian. These treatments seemed to be only available at the weddings of Li Shun, Li Hu and others.
It had appeared before, and everyone in the army knew about the relationship between Li Shun, Li Hu and others and Jia Rong, so there was nothing wrong with it. The same treatment given to Zhao Yun was enough to explain everything.
"What's the matter with Meng Qi?" Zhao Yun asked, calming his mind, and Ma Yunlu on the side left knowingly.
After Ma Chao saw his sister leaving, he felt a little relaxed and said: "General Zhao, even though I am humbled by my position, I want to go to Youzhou with the army. I hope it will be granted."
Zhao Yundao said: "How can a family have so many etiquettes? The attack on Youzhou is of great importance, and Meng Qi is also a leader in the army in martial arts. Naturally, he will go with the army, make achievements on the battlefield, and serve the Lord."
After a conversation, Ma Chao left Zhao Yun's mansion with satisfaction. He was very happy in his heart. If his sister had not married Zhao Yun, his relationship with Zhao Yun would have been just an acquaintance at best. It would not be as close as it is now. He agreed in a few words.
With Zhao Yun, the Ma family's status in the military has skyrocketed.
Not far after leaving the house, Ma Chao met Lu Bu. There had always been some friction between the two men in the army. Seeing Lu Bu walking in a hurry, Ma Chao immediately guessed what was going on. He stepped forward and said, "General Lu, why are you in such a hurry?"
Lu Bu turned around and saw Ma Chao, and he was unhappy at first. The main reason was that Ma Chao did not treat Lu Bu with the same respect as other generals in the army. When it came to martial arts, Lu Bu was the first person in the army personally conferred by Jia Rong.
Generals salute everywhere. In the army, the strong are respected and it is a world of the strong. Ma Chao was once defeated by his own hands, so he should be more respectful, but Ma Chao is indeed different, that is, he is defeated.
Ma Chao still behaved very arrogantly and constantly provoked Lu Bu. Of course, fights between soldiers were inevitable, but every time Ma Chao was defeated and beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. But this guy has always refused to admit defeat.
His master still moved forward tenaciously after the defeat. Even Lu Bu had to admire his courage.
"It turns out it's General Ma. I'm glad to meet you." Lu Bu said with a cup of his hands. Now he is no longer a rookie entering the officialdom for the first time. He has some scruples in his actions. The strength of the Ma family is not weak in the army, and Zhao Yun is also Jia Rongqin.
The deputy commander-in-chief of the army that attacked Liaodong.
"I will conquer Youzhou in the future. I will be waiting for you in Youzhou. We will meet later and let Gongsun Du see the power of the Xiliang army." Ma Chao left with fists in his hands.
Lu Bu stood there, his expression constantly changing. He took one last look at Zhao Yun's mansion and turned to leave. He suddenly remembered that Zhao Yun and Ma Chao were already a family. With the gap between him and Ma Chao, how could Zhao Yun allow himself to go to Youyou so easily?
Are you going to fight in the state? Rather than being angry with Zhao Yun, it is better not to go.
Then he felt a little unwilling to give in. He paused for a moment and was about to rush to Prince Liang's Mansion when a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Since General Lu is here, why don't you come to the mansion to talk about it?" At some point, Zhao Yun walked out of the mansion.
Lu Bu saw that Zhao Yun's invitation did not seem to be fake, so he nodded in agreement and followed Zhao Yun into the Zhao Mansion. After working together under Jia Rong for so many years, the two of them were relatively familiar with each other.
In terms of residence, Lu Bu is not inferior to Zhao Yun. He is also a general in the army. If Lu Bu had not made a big mistake unintentionally back then, his status would probably be higher than Zhao Yun.
"General Lu is a rare visitor, so he must get drunk before resting today." Zhao Yun pulled Lu Bu and said.
Lu Bu was overjoyed when he saw Zhao Yun's bold performance, and said: "Since General Zhao said this, how can Bu have no reason not to obey?"
The two of them walked into the mansion, and their servants prepared meals.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Zhao Yun said: "I saw General Lu wandering outside the gate of the mansion today. I don't know why? You and I are also old men under the lord. We have fought for many years and conquered a huge territory for the lord. General Lu
He is also the most powerful general in the army. No enemy he encounters is spared. Yun admires him greatly."
Lu Bu looked a little dazed. The one who praised him was Zhao Yun, a famous general in the army. The meaning was extraordinary. He cupped his fists and said, "General Zhao, you are so polite. You and I have known each other for many years. I wonder if General Zhao can agree to this?"
"Although General Lu said, as long as Yun can do it, he will definitely do it." Zhao Yun said with a smile.
"General Zhao is the deputy general who conquered Youzhou, and I want to go with the army. I wonder if General Zhao can agree."
Zhao Yun immediately said: "What is the difficulty in this matter? I will mention it in front of the lord when the time comes. How can we conquer Youzhou without the most powerful general of the Xiliang Army? Even if General Lu doesn't come, I will go find him."
And you."
Lu Bu was overjoyed. He didn't expect Zhao Yun to agree so easily. It seemed that he had judged a gentleman with a villain's heart before, and the eyes he looked at Zhao Yun became more and more kind.
"General Zhao is really generous. I will ask you to call you Zilong. From now on, you can just call me Fengxian. You don't need to call me General Lu. I am not used to it." Lu Bu said.
