Chapter 136 worries about the country and the people
Regarding Hong Chengchou's request, Yun Zhao was only stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's so good, it's just that you bring the grain, and I sell the grain from Shangnan County to Huang Yongfa." ”
Hong Chengchou seemed to be obsessed with sweet potatoes, finished eating one, picked up another and continued to eat, and didn't seem to hear Yun Zhao's suggestion.
"Twenty percent of the income should be enough for you, don't be too greedy, I'm going to give money to a lot of people."
Yun Zhao said: "My interests will be taken from Huang Yongfa, and you will take all your interests." ”
Hong Chengchou finished eating the last bite, slowly stood up and said, "The grain that Huang Yongfa bought from you did not reach the border army. ”
Yun Zhao said: "If you don't intercept it at the mouth of the tiger, this batch of grain will enter the grassland." ”
Hong Chengchou smiled: "You are an understanding person, if you are older, we can do great things together." ”
"What can spur you into such a way, ignoring even the order that you value most?"
Hong Chengchou slowly sat down and said to Yun Zhao, "Is there any wine?" ”
Qian Shaoshao quickly brought the wine.
Hong Chengchou said: "Have a drink with me, I really can't find someone to talk to." ”
Yun Zhao sat down, picked up his wine glass and touched a glass of wine with Hong Chengchou, and then drank it all.
"My alcohol consumption is not good, if you have any complaints, please say it quickly, lest I get drunk in a while."
Hong Chengchou drank three glasses of wine in succession, and then he took a breath of wine and said: "Since Yang Hao's army defeated Liaodong, among the several people sent by the imperial court to pass through Liaodong, according to my observation, there is hardly a wine bag and rice bag.
Xiong Tingbi was ordered to patrol Liaodong, and Yang Hao passed through Liaodong on behalf of Yang Hao, the right attendant of the military department, recruited exiles, rectified military orders, built chariots, firearms, dredging trenches to repair the city, and garrisoned Dagu.
During his tenure as governor of Liaodong, he supervised the construction of military weapons, repaired the castle, and dispatched troops to guard the key points, supporting each other and garrisoning the fortification. He also personally toured Shenyang and Fushun, met the situation, summoned the exile, and calmed the people's hearts.
Although there was a defeat in Liaoyang, it was Wang Huazhen who fled first, which is not wrong. ”
Yun Zhao said: "I don't know about these things, I don't know what to say, you continue!" ”
Hong Chengchou didn't seem to care about Yun Zhao's evaluation, and he didn't seem to want to get an answer from Yun Zhao, so he continued: "Sun Chengzong supervised Liaodong for four years during the Tianqi period.
Nine large cities and 45 fortresses were repaired, 110,000 soldiers and horses were recruited and trained, 12 battalions of vehicles, five battalions of water, two battalions of firearms, eight battalions of forward and stamina, and several million units of equipment used in warfare, such as armor, military equipment, bows and arrows, and artillery stones, were established.
The territory was expanded by 400 miles, with 5,000 hectares of tuntian, and an annual income of 150,000 quintals of military rations.
Do you think doing something like this counts as merit? ”
Yun Zhao nodded and said, "It's rare!" ”
Hong Chengchou said: "I think so too. ”
After speaking, he drank another glass of wine, and Yun Zhao also raised his glass and wiped his lips.
"Yuan Chonghuan is a person, he has the ability, and in the early years, he won two great victories in Ningyuan and Liaoyuan, which really made my generation excited and refreshing.
Later, later...... Forget it, there is no way to distinguish between the true and the false.
Which of the above three people is not a masterpiece of a generation.
It's a pity that all of them were buried on the land of Liaodong. ”
"Hey, Sun Chengzong is now entering the Daling River, why do you say that they are buried? Could it be ......"
Yun Zhao picked up his wine glass and took the initiative to touch it with Hong Chengchou.
"That's right, in July this year, due to the previous Gaodi's withdrawal of the Ningjin defense line, Youtun, Dalinghe and other cities were destroyed, and Sun Chengzong sent people to rebuild them.
In August, Huang Taiji suddenly came to besiege him. Sun Chengzong rushed to Jinzhou and sent Wu Xiang and Song Wei to the rescue...... It's a pity that Wu Xiang and Song Wei were defeated by Huang Taiji in Changshan.
Only Zu Dashou, who guards the Daling River alone, is left,
Now, Huangtaiji has besieged the city for more than two months, and there is not much grain and grass in his army, even if he eats war horses and eats people, it can't last for half a month.
In October, Zu Dashou will surrender to Jiannu......"
Hong Chengchou drank another glass of wine as he spoke, and after drinking it dry, he slammed the cup on the ground with a temper that came out of nowhere, picked up the wine jug, and drank it bitterly.
Yun Zhao waited for Hong Chengchou to finish drinking, grabbed a meatball from the plate and said to Hong Chengchou: "How about we make a bet?" ”
Hong Chengchou raised his head, looked at Yun Zhao with slightly reddened eyes and smiled, "What do you want to bet?" ”
Yun Zhao said: "I bet on Zu Dashou, even if I surrender this time, it will be a fraudulent surrender!" ”
Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "You don't know what Huang Taiji is. ”
Yun Zhao also smiled and said: "People like you, who have stepped from the small people of Shengdou to the current high position, don't understand local tyrants like us at all. ”
Hong Chengchou squinted his eyes and saw Yun Zhao and said, "What's the explanation?" ”
Yun Zhao shook his head and said: "This is the secret of people like us, we can't tell you, you just need to know that as long as Zu Dashou's nest Jinzhou is not lost, he will not surrender, even if he surrenders, it is a fraudulent surrender!" ”
"Bet on what?" Hong Chengchou did not ask, but directly asked what the bet was.
"I want half of the food you snatched from Huang Yongfa next time!"
"What if you lose?"
"I'll give you 100,000 catties of sweet potatoes to supplement your military rations."
Hong Chengchou staggered to his feet, high-fived Yun Zhao, spat out a mouthful of wine and said, "I hope you can win!" ”
After speaking, he was helped out of the Yun mansion by his own general, and walked in a carriage in the direction of the setting sun.
Yun Zhao looked at Hong Chengchou who was far away and sighed softly: "No matter how strong it is, don't collapse, you always have to support me until I grow up, right?" ”
It wasn't until Hong Chengchou disappeared that Yun Zhao returned home.
Yun Meng hurriedly walked in and said, "Huang Yongfa still wants to buy 30,000 loads of grain, we don't have it, do you want to refuse him?" ”
Yun Zhao shook his head and said: "Don't refuse, tell him that Shangnan County still has some grain in stock, which should be enough for 30,000 quintals, and can be sold to him, but also tell him that this is the ration of the people of Shangnan County."
The price should go up by 80%!
You also have to tell him that we are helping him with our lives. ”
Yun Meng's hands trembled and said, "We can't take away the people's rations!" ”
Yun Zhao looked at Yun Meng and said, "I got 30,000 quintals of grain from Hong Chengchou, but this batch of grain can't be given to Huang Yongfa, so it can only be poured from the people of Shangnan County." ”
"How can Hong Chengchou have food?"
Yun Meng screamed in surprise, and when he saw Yun Zhao smiling, he was stunned and said, "You mean? ”
Yun Zhao said: "I didn't say anything. ”
Yun Meng only felt that his legs were weak, but fortunately, he had the money to push the chair over him, so he didn't sit on the ground.
After calming down for a moment, Yun Meng stood up and said, "I'll go and tell Huang Yongfa, Xiao Zhao, are the people you deal with in the future traitors like Hong Chengchou?" ”
Yun Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe it's better than Hong Chengchou." ”
"For example?"
"For example, in a few years, I will have to deal with Sun Chuanting!"
Yun Meng trembled: "That's the ......"
"That's right, it's the Sun Chuanting who arrested you to build roads, and took all our blades to cast into hammers, hoes and other tools."
Yun Zhao saw that a layer of white sweat oozed from Yun Meng's forehead in an instant, so he whispered, "Uncle Meng, don't worry, there is me." ”
Yun Meng nodded silently, wiped a handful of sweat, and went to the flower hall to discuss with Huang Yongfa about selling grain.
Qian Shaoshao said softly: "Is this Sun Chuanting even more powerful than Hong Chengchou?" ”
Yun Zhao said softly: "Each has its own strengths, they are all masterpieces of a generation, and they are very powerful characters." ”
Qian Shaoshao smashed his mouth and said, "Are all the monsters we met?" This Hong Chengchou is already like this, and that Sun Chuanting has also arrested Uncle Meng, so what should it be? ”
Yun Zhao said with a smile: "Fighting with the sky is endless, fighting with the earth, the fun is endless, fighting with people is endless!"
If we don't find some powerful characters to make moves, how can we show that we are a group of people who want to do great things? ”
Qian Shaoshao was taken aback by Yun Zhao's gloomy laughter, and hurriedly poured him a cup of tea and said, "Quickly moisten your throat, you can laugh out of the sound of a crow." ”
Yun Zhao drank the tea, and was ready to take Qian Shaoshao to Yushan Academy to see Qian Duoduo, this dead child has been very domineering recently, it is said that she is about to become a scourge on Yushan.
As for Yun Meng's deal with Huang Yongfa, he didn't care, this time Huang Yongfa didn't have a choice, even if he knew that this batch of grain was originally bought, in the face of reality, he would rather pay for it again than fall out with Yun Zhao.
Sure enough, just as Yun Zhao and Qian Shaoshao were riding on the donkey, Yun Meng hurriedly ran out, grabbed the reins of Yun Zhao's mount, and said in a low voice: "Huang Yongfa is grateful!" ”
Yun Zhao smiled and said to Yun Meng again: "Uncle Meng, if you like this Huang Yongfa, just talk more, this time, it is impossible for him to have the life to return to our house to buy food." ”
Yun Meng didn't have the money to put a chair under his ass this time, and couldn't help but scream: "Come back?" ”
