The ninth and thirtieth chapter is difficult to sit on the country
The reason why Li Xinchen chose the Xiajiang Tang family as his foundation was because they had been with Li Xinchen for the longest time. Naturally, they should know that what Li Xinchen said could be done. And once the bank began to build and spread to the north,
, the powerful people in Hanzhong, Northwest and Xiangyang and other places also understood what they should do.
Of course, Li Xinchen would also communicate with the Hongnong Yang family about this matter. After all, if Li Xinchen really wanted to establish a bank network covering the entire Bashu, Hanzhong and other places, he would not be able to rely solely on the Xiajiang Tang family.
In the final analysis, these aristocratic families are only local aristocratic families. Even if the Xiajiang Tang family has gradually moved northward with the expansion of Li Xingchen in recent years, its influence and heritage are still not comparable to those of the Hongnong Yang family, which was already famous all over the world hundreds of years ago.
Comparable to big families.
Therefore, if Li Xingchen really wants to build a bank network, he still cannot do without the support of big families such as the Hongnong Yang family and the Longxi Li family, especially now that the relationship between Li Xingchen and Yang Jian has eased, and the exchange of letters and even money and goods is not unreasonable.
possible.
As Yu Wenxian began to build troops on the north bank of the river, Yang Jian certainly would not deliberately offend Li Xingchen at this time. Otherwise, Li Xingchen would not even need to dispatch a large-scale force in the north. It would be enough to let Changsun Sheng and Cao Zhong in the northwest create a little discomfort for Yang Jian.
Yang Jian couldn't bear it anymore.
After sending the ambitious Tang Deng and others away, Li Xingchen took a breath and looked up at the map in front of him.
"Husband, take a rest for a while." Lechang said with a smile and brought a cup of tea over.
Baidi City was originally a fortress built on a large river. It was mainly used for stationing troops and transporting materials. Therefore, the buildings in the city were not actually built on a large scale. They were mainly barracks and warehouses. Even Li Xingchen, the king of Han Dynasty,
Zun can only occupy a small courtyard. As for the local guards Li Xun and Luo Yi, they even have to occupy a courtyard.
But considering that there are even barracks in the military camp, it's already pretty good, so there's nothing to complain about.
There is only one courtyard in total, so there is no distinction between front yard and back yard, so Lechang's movement is naturally unrestricted. What's more, she has long been accustomed to being in the Nanchen Palace on weekdays, and no one in the imperial study dares to
To stop her, even when Chen Xu got angry, the chamberlains wished that Lechang would come over quickly. Chen Xu usually would not get angry at his daughters, so the chamberlains could escape the disaster.
Li Xingchen nodded slightly and smiled bitterly: "It's easy to conquer a country, but it's difficult to sit on it."
Lechang asked the maid to bring some more snacks, while gently squeezing Li Xinchen's shoulders: "It is easy to conquer a country, and that is because my husband is talented. Otherwise, anyone can conquer a country."
"Why are you so good at flattering others?" Li Xingchen said with a smile.
"How can your husband talk about me like this!" Lechang immediately refused, and the strength in his hand could not help but increase a little bit. But Li Xingchen did not answer, but turned his head and looked at Lechang seriously, which surprised Lechang.
"What's wrong?"
"I always feel that I have some shortcomings, but now I have money, land, and soldiers," Li Xingchen said hesitantly, suddenly showing a wicked smile, "It seems that I just lack a child."
Before Lechang could react, Li Xingchen followed up with a sinister smile and said: "It's difficult to be a leader, and it will definitely not work if you don't have heirs, so madam, we have to work hard."
Lechang didn't say a word, turned around and ran away. She didn't know anything about Li Xingchen's character. As long as she said something, she would definitely do it. If she didn't leave now, she might not be able to escape the clutches of the devil.
Li Xinchen saw Lechang's figure disappearing in a blink of an eye, and threw away his hand bitterly. He will deal with you tonight, but now he has other things to do. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and Li Xinchen stood up suddenly: "Li Ping!"
"exist!"
"Let's go to the navy camp!"
————————————
If you want to attack the south of the Yangtze River, the navy will always be an unavoidable topic. Even if you want to build a pontoon bridge like the Northern Song Dynasty attacked the Southern Tang Dynasty in history, you must have a navy to protect you on the river.
Li Xinchen's naval force was mainly from Wang Chang, who was assigned to him by Xiao Maha when he first entered Shu. Wang Chang was not a very important figure in the navy, and the person assigned to him at the beginning was only to help Li Xinchen transport troops and horses.
.
However, Li Xingchen did not ignore the combat power of these large ships under Wang Chang's command, and facts proved that in the subsequent offensive and defensive battles of Bajun, Luzhou and Shujun, the navy made great contributions. Especially in the critical battle of Shujun, if it were not the navy,
Taking the risk to break through the water gate, no matter how brave Chen Zhishen is, he will not be able to capture Shu County in a short time.
The loss of Shu County also caused the two armies of Yuchi Jiong and Wei Xiaokuan who were attacking Langzhong to lose their main target. Especially at that time, in order to support Shu County as soon as possible, they all went into battle lightly. If the city of Shu County was lost, it would naturally
There was no possibility of continuing to move forward, which indirectly led Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong to seek a retreat in Cangxi Valley, and were eventually defeated by Li Xinchen in Cangxi Valley.
Therefore, the navy's contribution to the entire Bashu pacification is obvious to all.
This also allowed Wang Chang to quickly become the real leader of the navy, and she also knew very well that she had gained all this by following Li Xinchen, so her loyalty to Li Xinchen was naturally self-evident.
Although there were no navy figures in Li Xinchen's subsequent attacks on Hanzhong and Xiangyang, Wang Chang was promoted from the original "Lou Chuan Xiaowei" to "Lou Chuan General" after Li Xinchen became king. At the same time, new warships were continuously launched.
It also made Wang Chang's navy no longer the weak brigade that could only defend at Kuimen and was unable to provoke the Jingzhou navy.
Of course, the strength of an army cannot only rely on instruments and equipment. At least now Li Xingchen is standing on the dock of the naval camp, looking at the naval officers who are stepping up their training, and is very pleased. There is no problem with their mental outlook, even if these soldiers
Even in the middle of winter, he still doesn't relax, which is enough to satisfy Li Xingchen.
After all, although the river is not frozen, the water is still very cold.
Li Xingchen smiled on his face, and of course Wang Chang also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Li Xingchen's attention and support to the Navy these days is obvious to all. As a naval general, Wang Chang was afraid of betraying Li Xingchen's trust.
"This navy will be our sharp sword when we go to the south of the Yangtze River in the future," Li Xingchen said with a smile, "and in the future, it will be our dependence on conquering all corners of the country!"
Wang Chang looked over in surprise, and immediately understood something, and felt his heart heat up.
His Highness' ambition has long been outside of China, and His Highness's ambitions are all over the world, so the Navy has a place to be useful!
"The navy is equally important as the land division. When the navy develops and grows in the future, it will have to form an independent army." Li Xingchen said immediately.
This sentence fell in the ears of Wang Chang and the other navy generals, and they were already in a trance. (To be continued)
