Chapter 181: Dagan Jiangnan Revival Alliance

When Song Yang returned to Yuzhang, King Hongzhou had already gone five miles out of the city to greet him.

King Hongzhou already knew about the war ahead through the messengers.

He never dreamed that Jiangzhou's strength would be so strong.

Five thousand against fifteen thousand, not only can they defeat them, but they can also chase them all the way and drive the bandits out of Hongzhou.

Deeply aware of his shortcomings, King Hongzhou is really convinced now.

I no longer feel embarrassed that my uncle is inferior to my nephew.

"My dear nephew Ayang! Congratulations on your victory over the bandits. Uncle Wang also thanks you for helping him drive away the bandits."

King Hongzhou was full of smiles, fearing that Song Yang would not be able to feel his sincerity.

"Uncle Wang, you're welcome." Song Yang nodded slightly and smiled.

Momentum must be controlled. After a battle, Song Yang's understanding of his own strength has also improved.

Moreover, during this time, he has been thinking about how to revive various parts of Jiangnan as soon as possible.

He doesn't want to be an emperor yet, but he can form an alliance.

When Song Yang returned to Yuzhang this time, he came to discuss the alliance with King Hongzhou.

After entering the city, the three old Song family members came together.

"Uncle Wang, the current situation is difficult and the people are displaced. If we want to resume our work as soon as possible, we must come up with some strategies." Song Yang said straight to the point.

"A Yang, tell me, Uncle Wang will listen to you." King Hongzhou is much more honest now, and his strength is not as good as others. He no longer wants to do anything.

Anyway, I was a prince before, and I will be a prince in the future.

"Seventh Uncle, tell me, you know the situation in various places in the south of the Yangtze River better than I do." Song Yang looked at Seventh Uncle Tanzhou Wang Songtong.

On the way back, the uncle and nephew had discussed the outcome in the past few days, and Song Tong was very supportive of Song Yang's idea.

"Lao Wu, A Yang and I want to unite all parts of Jiangnan. Let's build an alliance first and focus our efforts on restoring people's livelihood, population and economy."

The title "Lao Wu" refers to Song Ying's family ranking.

"Let go of all the fighting for power and gain. The world is like this now. It's too early to talk about high positions."

"In this way, vassal kings from all over the country can work together to resist the bandits and rebels, and restore people's livelihood more quickly."

The solution that Song Yang and Song Tong came up with was to establish a political alliance.

We are not in a subordinate relationship but in a cooperative relationship.

As long as you still admit that you are a subject of Daqian and an official of Daqian, you can join this alliance.

Within the alliance, the emperor will not be elected for the time being. Everyone will be in charge of their own affairs and all will be autonomous.

Of course, those who don’t want autonomy can also use alliances for unified management.

The biggest advantage of this is that it allows the vassal kings everywhere to abandon the idea of ​​​​comparison and struggle.

In recent months, Song Yang has had almost no contact with the other surviving vassal kings.

Song Tong and Song Ying were almost the same.

The vassal kings in the two adjacent areas each managed their own affairs, and no one contacted the other.

This will lead to the bandits being defeated one by one after they become stronger.

For example, Wang Songtong of Tanzhou.

Shaozhou and Hengzhou to the south of Tanzhou still have certain strength. If they are willing to unite with Song Tong, the Liu brothers and sisters will definitely not be able to conquer Tanzhou.

It is even very likely that he will be completely wiped out by the three kings.

The reality is that Song Tong fled, and the two kings of Hengzhou and Shaozhou watched the fun together.

Some time ago, Liu Manqing attacked Heng and Shaozhou. The two princes were also focused on their own affairs and had no intention of helping each other.

If the Liu brothers and sisters hadn't trained their troops well, maybe Heng and Shao two states would also have fallen.

Although we can defend the enemy together, we are afraid that the other party will steal our territory, and we are afraid that if we lose power, we will let our neighbors be destroyed.

This is what Song Yang least wants to see, and it is also the most unfavorable development method for the remaining forces of Daqian.

So Song Yang planned to unite all the remaining state capitals and form something like a coalition government.

As soon as this idea was mentioned, Hongzhou Wang Songying thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Ayang, I understand what you said. This is indeed the best way to solve the current predicament."

"I agree!" King Hongzhou nodded and agreed to Song Yang's suggestion.

"Okay, then our alliance now has four of us joining it." Song Yang said with a smile.

"Four families?" Song Ying was stunned. There are only three families present now.

"And that guy Song Chengwang." Song Yang smiled.

It turned out that he was still thinking of leaving a portion for Song Chengwang.

"Two uncles, I still need two of you to send letters to the southern states." Song Yang hugged the two men.

Song Yang's visit to Jiangnan was too short, and he was not familiar with the kings of Jiangnan at all.

We have to rely on these two lakes to make a move.

Song Tong and Song Ying smiled and nodded, indicating that they had taken over the matter.

As for the places in Lingnan Road, first send people to inquire about the situation and then make plans.

Finally, there are the two forces at war in the east.

The three of them unanimously decided to let them fight. It had nothing to do with them to beat Xiangya out of his head.

Let’s wait until they decide the winner.

At that time, the alliance was established, and there was no fear of the Jiangning regime.

"Uncle Wang, what's the situation in Yuanzhou now?"

After assigning tasks, Song Yang asked hurriedly after hearing that King Hongzhou didn't mention Yuanzhou's affairs.

He was thinking about the coal mine.

"Yuanzhou? What does that poor place in Yuanzhou care about?" King Hongzhou didn't care about Yuanzhou at all.

His thoughts were the same as those of the Liu brothers and sisters, and they did not hesitate to talk to Yuan Zhou.

Even Song Tong had almost the same idea.

In fact, Yuanzhou does not even have a prince, but only a county head, who is a relative of the old Song family.

The place was so poor that the emperor was too embarrassed to go to Tanzhou to create a prince.

"Two uncles, there is a coal mine in Yuanzhou, and my nephew is bound to get it." Song Yang said without hiding anything.

"Coal mine? What's the use of that thing?" Song Ying didn't understand.

There are coal mines in Hongzhou, and only many poor people use them to burn coal.

According to their thinking, they are burning coal with their lives, and they may be poisoned at some point.

The seventh uncle, Song Tong, followed Song Yang all over the country. Now he is very knowledgeable. Of course he also knows the role of coal.

As soon as I explained it to King Hongzhou, King Hongzhou scratched his head and said: "Can coal be used to make steel? I didn't know this at first."

There are no iron mines in Hongzhou, and he is not even familiar with iron-making.

"Uncle Wang, there are several coal mines in Hongzhou. If Ayang wants to use coal, Uncle Wang will have someone dig it for you. Why go so far to Yuanzhou?" Song Ying looked at Song Yang and said.

"Uncle Wang, if your coal mine can produce some coal now, it will be able to meet some of the small needs of Daye. However, Yuanzhou cannot lose it. The coal mines there are of good quality and have large reserves. , it is very necessary to occupy it." Song Yang explained.

Of course he was happy that King Hongzhou could provide him with some coal.

With the coal supply provided by Hongzhou Wang and Xiao Fugui, Daye's temporary coal demand can also be fully supplied.

But the Pingxiang Coal Mine must be captured, and this treasure must not be allowed to fall into the hands of bandits.

"Since A Yang wants Yuanzhou, I will send someone to Yuanzhou soon to have a look."

"Some time ago, the governor of Yuanzhou sent me a rescue message, but I didn't have time to pay attention to him."

"I guess they don't have many people left there now."

"But don't worry, my dear nephew, the bandits won't run to Yuanzhou so quickly. The road there is not easy."

Song Yang insisted on going to Yuanzhou, and King Hongzhou promised to go to Yuanzhou as soon as possible.

"Then I'll leave it to Uncle Wang. Yuan Zhou will notify me as soon as he has any news."

"I'll go take a look at the coal mine tomorrow. If it meets the coal quality requirements, Uncle Wang can arrange for production after the autumn harvest."

Song Yang was not polite to the King of Hongzhou either. Now that an alliance had been formed, they could share their needs with each other.

Song Yang also refused to let Wang Bai of Hongzhou work, and expressed his willingness to use grain or iron tools to pay for the coal mine.

King Hongzhou was originally polite, but he only agreed to it in a pretentious manner.

Of course, King Hongzhou chose iron tools, farm tools, and weapons, because they had no shortage of food...

"Ah Yang. Since we have established an alliance, we must have a name."

At the end of the discussion, King Hongzhou asked about the name of the alliance.

Song Yang ignored this matter. He only wanted to form an alliance, but he didn't think of a name.

"How about calling it the Daqian Jiangnan Revival Alliance." Seventh Uncle Song Tong suggested.

"The Daqian Jiangnan Revival Alliance...it's okay, it's easy to understand." Song Yang agreed.

Anyway, since it's a name, you can call it whatever you want.

This name also reflects that they are a powerful force and also reflects the purpose of rejuvenation.

Even the scope shows that it is within the scope of Jiangnan.

"Okay. Let's call it this." Song Ying actually wanted to come up with a more literary name.

But seeing that Song Yang's uncle and nephew agreed, he didn't make any suggestions.

In this way, the Daqian Jiangnan Revival Alliance was hastily established.

The purpose of the alliance is to restore the people's livelihood in Jiangnan as soon as possible.

Internally, all members who join the alliance are not allowed to attack each other.

In terms of economy and people's livelihood, we should help each other and share what we need.

The alliance will try its best to help members who have difficulties in restoring their livelihood and can provide support in manpower, materials, weapons and other aspects.

If one day in the future it comes to electing a co-leader, it will be through democratic voting.

And ensure that the existing benefits of alliance members will not be reduced.

Externally, alliance members form political and military alliances. If any party is attacked by rogue bandits, other similar alliances must send troops to help quell the rebellion.

That's all the original content, and it initially takes care of everyone's interests.

And connect the state capitals that joined the alliance into one force.

The initial four members were Jiangzhou Wang Songyang, Hongzhou Wang Songying, Tanzhou Wang Songtong, and Fengzhou Wang (future) Song Chengwang.

"Since we have officially formed an alliance, how about nominating an alliance leader?" King Hongzhou looked at Song Yang and said with a smile.

It was obvious that he wanted to elect Song Yang as the leader of the alliance.

"Nothing else! I don't want to be the leader of the alliance." Song Yang refused hurriedly.

Song Yang is already very busy in Jiangzhou, Ezhou, Yuezhou, Fengzhou, and he doesn't want to worry about other members.

Now Song Yang is thinking about solving the food problem and training the Jiangzhou Renaissance Army well.

Upgrading weapons and equipment to hot weapon level.

Finally, to develop the industrial revolution, we must first thoroughly develop Jiangzhou.

If the energy is dispersed to other members of the alliance, nothing will be achieved in a short period of time.

"Uncle Seventh! You can be the leader of the alliance." Song Yang turned to look at Uncle Seventh Song Tong.

Song Tong shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, no, no, no! How can a man like Uncle Qi, who has lost his fiefdom, be embarrassed to be the leader of the alliance?"

Song Yang scratched his head, turned to look at Hongzhou King Song Ying and said:

"Uh. Then I won't do it, and Uncle Qi won't do it. How about you, Uncle Fifth King, do it?"
