That night, they were drunk and used the bedding as a bed, as if they were back to the time when they first went to the battlefield.
At that time, the fighting was fierce, and they often could only curl up and sleep on the ground.
Xiaoliu always had diarrhea at that time, because the three of them sneaked to the battlefield, used some self-inflicted tricks to deceive his wife and sister-in-law, and then rushed to the battlefield with a little money.
At that time, they were very scared because people would really die on the battlefield.
At that time, I felt that there was nothing more terrifying than death, except poverty.
Death, who is not afraid?
They have never seen many people who are not afraid of death.
However, I later discovered that there is an atmosphere that can really make people not afraid of death.
That is, when the enemy troops advance in triumph, kill their comrades, and plunder their own mountains and rivers, they never think about death again.
Even if I think about it, I just think that even if I die, I have to protect the land under my feet.
They just fell into a dream, dreaming back to the time when they first ascended the throne.
Prince Su's Mansion was still there, but the Zhaixing Tower was still overcrowded. He was so poor that he didn't even have a coin to scratch his head, and the war had used up all the money.
Brother Wei and his sister-in-law went to Da Zhou to pay off their debts. During a war with Bei Mo, they borrowed three hundred thousand troops from Da Zhou. They had no money to repay them, so they used Brother Wei to pay off the debt.
As soon as Brother Wei left, the court didn't pay much attention to him, the young new emperor.
They had to go toe-to-toe with the ministers in the court. Every time they returned to the imperial study after the argument, the three of them sat on the floor, covered in cold sweat.
When he ascended the throne, Brother Wei gave him great encouragement, saying that as long as he tried his best, he could become the emperor.
He thought it was so, but when he sat on the dragon throne, he realized that it was not that simple. Some things, even if he exerted all his strength to suck milk, would not work.
But there is no retreat. As Brother Wei said, no retreat is the best way forward. If you have to rush forward with a black eye, you will win.
Fortunately, there are helpers in the court, Lord Zang and Su Fu have given great support, and the eighteenth sister's grandfather Pingle Gong, a veteran, has stepped in, one of them is worth ten.
I can't imagine what a bleak situation it would be if I were fighting alone.
Nothing else is scary. What is scary is not having money.
Chu Huan's house was raided before, and so much money was confiscated. Everyone felt that they were going to be rich and live a good life.
As a result, locust plagues, floods, and wars all arrived in no particular order. All the gold and silver were evacuated, and grain was borrowed from neighboring countries. Dazhou, Dayue, and Daxing were all their creditors.
At the beginning, he was very afraid of neighboring countries because he owed money to them and lacked confidence.
Until later, Brother Wei received a letter from Da Zhou, telling him that there was no need to be afraid. It was other countries that should be afraid, because there was some winter melon and tofu in Beitang, and the food and debts could not be repaid.
As for ceding land to pay debts, it was basically impossible, because the good quality of the Northern Tang Dynasty at that time was poverty, and all the people would rather die than lose an inch of land.
Moreover, we need to get more resources from them. Just smash all the scraps of copper and iron and cloth into Beitang.
At first they thought, is it okay to be so shameless?
Later I found out that it is possible. The surrounding countries will unconditionally postpone their food debts. As long as Beitang, your bottomless pit, doesn’t extend your hand to us anymore. Don’t borrow food in July and clothes in October. You can pay back the food whenever you want.
Bar.
Brother Wei continued to do ideological work for them. If you are poor, you shouldn't be too greedy for face. If you want the people to live a good life, it doesn't matter if you suffer a little aggrievement. It's okay to be shameless.
But there is a bottom line, you cannot kneel down! Poverty and weakness are two different things.
