Five hundred thousand taels of silver was certainly a huge sum of money in the Wei Dynasty. According to the ratio that Yun Zheng estimated a few days ago, one tael of silver is equivalent to 660 yuan in future generations. This amount of money would be approximately 330 million in future generations.
Imagine that if a high-ranking official or the son of a high-ranking official in future generations accepted bribes of up to 300 million at one time, it would definitely be a major sensation in the country, not to mention the last time the Rainstorm Gate sent Yun Zheng a greeting card requesting to see him.
At that time, "66 million" was given away, and the "benefits" given out twice were already close to "400 million"!
If the Rainstorm Gate poured such a huge sum of money into it, if it really planned to buy the lives of everyone in the gate, there would be nothing wrong with it. However, Yun Zheng now was not the rookie he was when he first arrived in the Wei Dynasty a few days ago. He immediately felt that things were not that simple.
——The delivery person is just a minion under the Yun family's property. Baoyumen can buy him with just a small amount of money, so why foolishly lose 600,000 taels? Baoyumen does this, although it can't be said.
They are showing courtesy for no reason, but it is not an exaggeration to say that they show great courtesy when encountering trivial matters. So what is the reason for Rainstorm Sect to do this?
While Yunzheng was playing with the banknotes, he was thinking in his mind: What if the Rainstorm Gate had told Lin Xi about the matter after learning that he might be implicated in the assassination, but Lin Xi was unwilling to take action out of "self-cleansing"
To give them a helping hand, then the generous gifts they have prepared for themselves now should not only be as simple as asking themselves to help them out, but may also have the intention of changing the family. But if this is really the case, it will be up to you whether you want to accept the service of the Rainstorm Gate.
Well worth considering
Because of Ning Wanting's natal family's background in the martial arts world, the Yun family has relatively strong control over the martial arts in Shanxi and Hebei provinces. Beijian Pavilion can basically lead various sects in the two provinces. Only the Lingjiu Temple in Mount Wutai can
, Hengshan sect and other major sects can still maintain their independence, but they dare not easily confront the Yun family - or Beijian Pavilion - as the parties are basically unrelated to each other.
But the Yun family's sphere of influence only ends here. Over the years, the Yun family's control over the Jianghu has never exceeded the scope of Shanxi and Hebei provinces. Investigating the reason, Yun Zheng thinks it is probably to prove to the royal family that he has no power.
For other ambitions, after all, controlling the rivers and lakes in Shanxi and Hebei provinces can be said to be for the long-term security of the jurisdiction. But if you stretch your hand too far and control Henan and Shandong, it feels like you have overstepped the limit.
Therefore, Yunzheng seemed a little worried about the heavy rain sect's current "bribery". If the rainstorm sect really wanted to change the sect, then if he accepted their submission, not to mention how Lin Xi would view it, just
It is possible for the sensitive and alert Emperor Wanchang to doubt his own motives, which seems to be very inappropriate. However, Yunzheng is absolutely reluctant to return such a huge sum of money to Zuo Dongming, and now he is considered the default eagle.
Yang Wei was in command, and he had to pay for the training of the 30,000-strong army himself. This huge sum of 600,000 taels could solve a large part of his troubles, so it was definitely impossible to ask him to refund the money.
As the saying goes, if you take advantage of others, since you have taken their money, you have to help them get things done. Yun Zheng thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't think of a perfect solution, so he decided to help the storm door handle the current assassination case first.
To put it aside, as for whether the Stormgate is going to work for me, we have to wait and see in advance.
Yunzheng walked into the study alone and wrote a letter to the Yunjia Ironworks Workshop in Longde Prefecture, Shanxi Province. He briefly described the whole thing and told the delivery person to tell the truth if he was questioned by the court.
Seal the envelope with fire paint and have it delivered quickly through the Yun family’s own channels
********************* On the 19th day of the first lunar month of the 18th year of Wanchang, Yunzheng was very happy to attend the court meeting on behalf of his father for the second time.
For no other reason, the Yun family army fought and won another battle!
It turned out that Xiao Tianyou led the army to capture Xinping Fort and Huangze Pass, and then raided Yunzhou when the Yun family army was unable to respond. In his opinion, the Yun family army placed six Taiyuan guards on the front line of Xinping Fort and Huangze Pass.
It can only be regarded as a second-rate unit of the Yun family army. Since it is a second-rate unit, its combat effectiveness and fighting will are certainly not as good as those of the direct Yanyun Twelve Guards. With nearly 200,000 elite wolf troops in his own hands, he can break through the mere 30,000.
Defending with many "second-rate troops" is of course easy
Although Xiao Tianyou's idea is good, unfortunately, the weather often does not work as he expected. Contrary to what he imagined, the Taiyuan Guards defended Xinping Fort and Huangze Pass very well. Not only were their tactics perfect, but Thirty Thousand Erlang's will was extremely determined.
The soldiers under Qianhu lost nearly 40%, but they refused to take a step back, and blocked the 200,000 Liao wolf army that was crossing Xiazhou from Shanxi.
Yunzheng knew that the combat in this cold weapon era was very different from the combat of modern armies in later generations. In terms of fighting will, the army of this era was much worse than the modern army. If the direct battle losses in the battle exceeded 20%,
, the vast majority of armies will collapse. Those whose battle losses exceed 30% but do not collapse can definitely be regarded as "strong armies". However, like some Taiyuan Guard troops this time, those whose battle losses exceed 40% still refuse to retreat.
It can be called an "Iron Army"
It has only been about forty years since the Taiyuan Twelve Guards were completely taken over by the Yun family. To be able to be strengthened to this extent, anyone who understands military affairs will have to admit that the Yun family is well-trained in military training.
On the first day, Xiao Tianyou's wolf army failed to attack under the defense of Taiyuan Guards. This made him very angry, and he continued to attack for three consecutive days. As a result, although Xinping Fort and Huangzeguan were almost collapsed, the
However, the six Taiyuan guards still clung to their position, and the wolf army gained nothing.
And just when Xiao Tianyou realized that he had wasted too much time in front of this strong city pass, Yun Lan personally led four Yanyun guards to kill Yun Lan. Although Yun Lan's strength was not large, it was far inferior to Xiao Tianyou, but when Xiao Tianyou came
The wolf army fought for several days but failed to achieve results. Not only was their morale low, but their losses were also quite high. So when Yun Lan's new army suddenly came out, Xiao Tianyou was caught off guard and killed.
Yunqi rides across eighty thousand miles, and the mad halberd retreats alone. The wolf god Yun Lan gave the arrogant wolf army a taste of "cloud riding" for the second time. Yan Yunqi was like a sharp ox-dagger, as smooth as a chef cutting an ox.
Charge and break through the weakest part of the wolf camp, then turn around and charge again, and break through again...
"On that day, the slave chief was heartbroken, gathered some of his remaining soldiers, and fled northward."
----------Dividing Line----------Well, in the future, any battles or battles that are not personally commanded by the Young Marshal will usually not be described in detail. Firstly, it is not necessary, and secondly, it is not necessary.
Lest everyone find it verbose, of course, if there are important figures appearing in the battle, they will naturally not be included in this category.
