Chapter 47 Shopping

"Why has it reached a stalemate again?"

Cheng Jinyang looked at the recent military reports and felt a headache.

After calling Chief Xie over for analysis, he found out that the people in the military were very thieves. Knowing that Su Zigao wanted to defend Jiankang, he deliberately blocked the supply lines around Jiankang, hoping to starve the Liyang army to death and avoid

A strong attack will result in loss of troops.

Of course, if the southern part of Jiankang had not been polluted by demons and it was obvious that the capital would be moved and abandoned, no one would dare to do so blatantly. The long-term fall of the capital would still have a huge impact on all aspects of the empire.

However, these actually have nothing to do with the Beifu Army. What everyone is more concerned about recently is the relocation of the capital after the war, that is, the eastward vs westward move of the political center of the empire.

The Yu family supported the westward migration, including the emperor and the empress dowager, who were all in Wuchang. They were supposed to be in a naturally invincible position. However, as the families of the five surnames moved to Jingkou, a large number of nobles also followed to Lin'an, so the East

The calls for relocation gradually grew louder.

On the military side, Tao Shixing, the commander-in-chief of the Longxiang and Feixiong armies, was stationed in Jingzhou and was an iron-clad leader of the westward-migration party. Wen Taizhen had a very good relationship with Yu Yuangui, so he also sided with the Yu family to support the westward movement.

On the other hand, on the side of Shenwu and Xiaoqijun, Yu Siao was too old and originally intended to retire this year, but he only continued to serve because of Su Zigao's rebellion, so he did not express his opinion.

However, as the Shenwu Army has the highest penetration rate of the Sima clan, high-ranking military officers from clans have expressed support for moving eastward, making it clear that they are in opposition to the Yu clan.

Xi Daohui, the head coach of the Knight Cavalry Army, did not say anything either. Master Xie joked with Cheng Jinyang in private that "Mr. Xi is an old monster", which meant that he was a scheming type and would not easily place bets before fully understanding the situation.

On the side of the gentry, the mainstream public opinion is almost unanimously in favor of moving eastward. The five-surname family is now stationed in Jingkou, and the admiral in Lin'an is Wang Chuming of the Wang family in Taiyuan (Miss Wang's uncle). Most of the shogunate officials are also descendants of the gentry.

It is said that the power of Lin'an's aristocratic families is unprecedentedly strong at this time.

Cheng Jinyang, as the head of the Cheng clan in the divine capital and the admiral of Jingkou Town, naturally had to unequivocally support the eastward movement.

There is always the illusion that we are reversing the course of history.

Of course, for those who play politics, their own interests must outweigh everything else.

Just like every founding emperor likes to divide clans into clans, and then the succeeding emperors have to work hard to reduce the vassals. They have to say and do whatever they sit in. Cheng Jinyang has long been aware of this.

Anyway, let’s wait until the war is over.

Another piece of information is about the White Lotus Sect. This thing has been cracked down by the imperial court many times in the empire, but it will resurgence soon after every time. The reason is that the birthplace of the White Lotus Sect is in the demon-conquered area in the north, which is too far from the imperial court.

I can't care...

With the influx of a large number of refugees from the north, the White Lotus Sect has also spread secretly in Jingkou. This month, it has carried out three comprehensive attacks and arrested more than 500 people. Now the prisons are almost full, giving Cheng Jinyang an increasingly headache.

It’s okay to have to succumb to demons in a demon-infested area. What’s wrong with worshiping demons when you return to the human world? Have you really been brainwashed and have Stockholm Syndrome in your brain?

Not to mention, we must take a heavy blow and crack down on these cultists!

The opinion of the shogunate is that these White Lotus sect members should be reformed and those who cannot be reformed should be executed on the spot - our Jingkou is not a legal society, and the prison cannot hold so many people. If they are placed in other refugee gathering places, Bailian

When the believers find one, they kill the whole family directly.

Cheng Jinyang’s approval: approved.

I continued to deal with government affairs when I suddenly received a phone call.

"Jinyang Jinyang!" Cui Xiaoniang's cheerful voice came from the mobile phone, "Come to Zhoushi to pick us up!"

"What's wrong?" Cheng Jinyang asked in a deep voice.

"Oh, don't worry, come quickly..."

"I know." Cheng Jinyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Using the Qiongbiluo algorithm to fly out of the window, Cheng Jinyang ran all the way to Zhou City. He met several members of the patrol team on the road and greeted each other.

At present, Tianluo has basically withdrawn from the city defense sequence of Jingkou Town, and only retains a small number of people who are responsible for patrolling and maneuvering in the air every day to support and respond.

Timely detection of crimes and implementation of riot control work is the key to maintaining public order in Jingkou today. After all, there are too many refugees.

The shogunate had ordered several anti-riot helicopters from the military factory in Lin'an, but they still couldn't cope with the rapidly increasing security pressure... Thinking of this, Cheng Jinyang began to feel pain in his head again.

After circling around Zhoushi, Cheng Jinyang finally discovered the existence of the girls.

Everyone was carrying large and small bags of things, which seemed to be the fruitful results of this shopping trip.

Women are terrible.

Landing in front of the girls, Cheng Jinyang glanced at everyone, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, all... Huh?

Not Yang Wangshu, but Xie Lingjiang?

"Brother Jinyang." Xie Lingjiang greeted him sweetly.

"We met him on the road," Cui Jinqi explained. "He came to see Mr. Xie. He didn't know which way to go, so we happened to meet him."

Cheng Jinyang was speechless. He looked at the two guards behind her and sighed:

"I'll take you there."

"How dare you trouble Commander Ji..." The two Xie family guards saluted quickly.

"We are all acquaintances, no need to be polite." Cheng Jinyang waved his hand, and Chu Qingqing raised the shopping bag in her hand and said with a smile:

"By the way, help us send these back."

"No!" Cheng Jinyang was shocked, "You still want to buy? Are you planning to move the mall home?"

"How can this little thing be enough?" Cui Xiaoniang said confidently, "Are you underestimating our combat effectiveness?"

"Let's go shopping for a while, please." Zheng Qiupei smiled bitterly.

Cheng Jinyang had nothing to say, so he had to use his algorithm to make these shopping bags fly around him, and asked Xie Ling Jiang and his servants to follow.

"I didn't expect Jingkou to be so prosperous." Xie Lingjiang sighed as he looked at the flow of people around him along the way.

"My brother praised that this place used to be full of dead trees and weeds, but now under the wise rule of Commander-in-Chief, it has turned into a bustling market place."

"Master Xie is good at saying nice things." Cheng Jinyang laughed and said, "Actually, when we took over here, the number of refugees was already considerable, almost comparable to that of towns."

"But it was really chaotic at the time. There were simple shacks everywhere. People who couldn't survive either joined gangs or turned into monks and beggars, relying on alms or begging to make a living. Later, we worked hard to rectify the order in the town and also solved the problem of employment.

Question, you can’t see it now…”

Before he finished speaking, a monk came out of the street in front, causing Cheng Jinyang's words to get stuck in his throat and stop abruptly.

Damn it, why should the slap in the face come so quickly!
