The displaced people who were originally in the vicinity of Chang'an, because of the repeated battles around Chang'an during this period of time, and because of the human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, have gradually fled to more remote areas, basically speaking, most of them have fled to Kansai and Hanzhong......

Therefore, Guanzhong is now surrounding the entire Chang'an region, the population has been constantly stripped, and all kinds of gods are fighting, originally because of the repeated rebellions of Qianghu over the years, the reserves of Guanzhong are not very much, although this was once a rich area, but that was a hundred years ago.

Now the richest areas in the world are Jizhou and Yuzhou.

If Guanzhong hadn't been tossed again and again, maybe it would have been better, but now......

Fighting men in the army, staying in the army for a day, eating grain and grass for a day, all the consumption, are supplied by the surrounding counties, the granaries in the original counties, the national reserves for famine years or disasters, now they have been regardless of all the collected out, eaten down, turned into a bubble of yellow and white things, and fed back to the earth.

In the many dock forts in Guanzhong, at first they could be alone, but now they have gradually been involved in the whirlpool of war one by one.

There is no grain and grass in the county, who to go to?

Naturally, one by one, the levy order was issued again, the number was larger and larger, and the overwhelmed dock forts and fortresses were already taking advantage of the gap to pack up and move their families, while those who gritted their teeth and stayed in place to support themselves had to face increasing pressure.

Those who have gone have gone, and the needs of the army or war have not decreased in intensity because of the decrease in population, so the various apportionments imposed on these left-behind populations have invisibly increased.

In addition, because of all kinds of large and small battles, all kinds of soldiers and horses drove over this area and ran over, and the cultivated land that was originally near the county seat was either inspected, or it was used as a battlefield and camp, and it was not only the green seedlings that were destroyed, but the harvest of the whole year.

Of course, many of the countrymen with thick families have not yet realized this, they have a lot of savings, and many of them are still calculating the extent to which this war will affect their lives. As for how many ordinary people have died, or how many ruined counties have been ruined, it has little to do with their self-sufficient dock fort system, of course, the continuous apportionment of the Guanzhong Imperial Court and the looting behavior of the Xiliang soldiers also made them worried and disgusted, so during this period of time, they were extremely eager to contact the people of the Hongnong Yang family......

Stay up, just get through this period in front of you, now there are more and more ownerless fields, and when the time comes, it's time to close the fields again!

Let's change it, it's good to replace it with Hongnong Yang's family, anyway, the interests above the court are not given to anyone, and they can't fall into their own hands anyway, as long as anyone can ensure that their family's wealth is not lost, they will support whom!

To fight a war is to fight food, and no one is exempt.

Both Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun know this very well.

Now it is already a defeat, and it cannot be defeated again, even if Yang Biao has a gentle personality and is knowledgeable, it is impossible to accept such a result, so this battle must be won.

Zhu Jun stood on top of Zheng County, looking in the direction of Chang'an, and Huangfu Song was slightly half a step behind.

When he was in Luoyang before, Huangfu Song's status was still above Zhu Jun, but now it is ......

Time is also lucky, no wonder, Huangfu Song also quickly put himself in the right position and fully cooperated with Zhu Jun.

"...... north," Zhu Jun turned his face to look in the direction of Sucheng and asked, "...... How's it going? ”

"It should be a withdrawal of troops, but there are still soldiers in Sucheng and Diaoyin......"

Huangfu Song's answer made Zhu Jun frown a little.

Sucheng Diaoyin line, basically even if it is stuck in the traffic arteries of Guanzhong to the north. The army of the Han Dynasty tossed and turned, and more often needed to carry heavy loads, so it was only necessary to properly guard this defensive line, and it was extremely difficult for the troops in Guanzhong to attack no matter which aspect of the troops they wanted.

Zhu Jun suddenly sighed and said softly: "...... They are all important ministers of the society, but ......"

Huangfu Song was silent.

After Zhu Jun pondered for a while, he still gave up the idea of working hand in hand with Fei Qian, although this is definitely a good move, but for Yang Biao and Huangfu Song, I am afraid it will not be.

Zhu Jun didn't know much about the inside story before, and suggested to Yang Biao that he was reluctant to say it when he saw Yang Biao, and after he went to Zheng County, Huangfu Song explained a little, so that Zhu Jun knew some of the inside story.

But what if you sigh?

Zhu Jun touched his beard and said, "There are many thieves in Xiliang, and there are cavalry who come and go freely...... If you want to break this thief, one is to take it step by step, or you can lure it to attack...... It is safe to move forward for the camp, but it takes time...... Lure it to attack, and there is no bait......"

On the wall of Zheng County, Zhu Jun looked at the land of Guanzhong in the distance, let out a long breath, squinted his eyes, although his face was old, but his eyes were still like a fierce eagle, looking at the direction of the east very sharply, as if he wanted to see the flaws of the Xiliang soldiers in the distance.

At this moment, suddenly a wisp of smoke and dust rose in the distance, and several scouts came quickly on horseback.

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song couldn't help but look stunned.

"Report!" The scout ran to the city, reined in the war horse, shouted loudly, with a little joy, and said, "Xinfeng County is in chaos, Xiliang thieves, for some reason, are attacking each other!" ”

"What?!"

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song couldn't help but glance at each other in surprise, and then Zhu Jun immediately commanded loudly: "Open the city gate and come up to report in detail!" ”

………………………………

The same news also reached Sucheng.

For the scout, Fei Qian still has some advantages in this regard.

However, in the face of such news, Xu Shu also has a little regret.

According to the scouts, there was chaos in Xinfeng City, and the Xiliang soldiers slashed and killed each other, without daily rules and management, and even the scouts and patrol rangers that should have been sent were gone, so Fei Qian's scouts could be very close, and they saw the ferocity of the two sides fighting with their own eyes......

According to the scout's statement, although Xu Shu still doesn't know why the Xiliang soldiers suddenly started fighting, it is undoubtedly a good thing, but unfortunately, Fei Qian has just returned to Pingyang with his soldiers, and it would be good if such news came a few days earlier.

But now, do you need to advise Fei Qian to return to Guanzhong?

Xu Shu was also thinking.

After thinking about it, Xu Shu finally felt that it was better to maintain the result of the last discussion with Fei Qian, if nothing else, because the current loss was indeed greater, and if he continued to fight, not only would a lot of grain and grass be consumed, but the more important problem was the war horse.

Whether it is to defend against Xianbei's counterattack in the north or to maintain the stability of the entire northern territory, it is impossible to control it by relying only on two-legged foot soldiers, and it is often possible to take care of one or the other.

Although Guanzhong is good, but after all, it is not Feiqian's place to make a fortune, at this stage, we must first ensure that our own food and grass supply cannot be cut off, this is the king.

Stuck in the first line of Sucheng Diaoyin, it is equivalent to only need to garrison troops in these two places, and Diaoyin was originally a pass, farming is just an accessory, there is good, there is no okay, Sucheng is a new county, there are not many dock forts around, and I don't expect to harvest much grain and grass, but Pingyang and even Yinshan are different, some places have been cultivated for two or three years, and Shengtian has become a ripe field, it is the best time, how can you give up easily?

Moreover, the current wars in Guanzhong are one after another, even if the current Xinfeng's Xiliang soldiers are infighting, it does not mean that all the Xiliang soldiers can be easily eliminated, not to mention that there are people in the government and the opposition and the Hongnong Yang clan eyeing each other......

This is one aspect, and the other aspect is to restore the current agricultural sustainability in Guanzhong, not to mention whether it can benefit Feiqian after recovery, just to re-sow and re-raise seedlings, how much grain and grass is needed?

At this time, in the customs clearance, there are some gains that outweigh the losses.

Xu Shu wrote down all his thoughts and thoughts in detail, attached them to the latest information, and sent them to the Fei dive place quickly, and then turned around the side hall twice with his hands behind his back, and then asked Ma Yan to be invited to ......

………………………………

The battle in Guanzhong is in full swing, and in Pingyang City, it is still a beautiful scene in the world.

In the largest restaurant in Pingyang City, the Xideng Building, it is even full, and even the small seats temporarily added in the corridor are also extremely sought-after.

At this moment, in Pingyang City, there are no traces of the decay of the previous years, whether it is the street or the house, it is a new piece of praise, just like the breath of this land, full of vigorous vitality.

Although the people in the city live as usual, compared to other places, they are more than ten times better, and in addition to worrying about food and clothing, they can also put a few small coins in their pockets......

Well, yes, a few shots.

Throughout the Binh Duong area, the financial system implemented by Fei Qian is gradually penetrating all aspects, replacing the original monetary system of the Han Dynasty.

The emergence of "Jiaozi", which is guaranteed by Feiqian credit, not only solves the difficulty of valuation between buyers and sellers in commodity trade, but also becomes an officially designated general equivalent, and even brings unexpected subtle side effects in the early stage......

Jiaozi, in the subconscious situation, has greatly promoted the economic cycle of the Binh Duong area.

One is to accelerate the exit of the five-baht coin from the market.

The previous coin was five baht coins, but now five baht coins are basically equivalent to scrap, and the price of many bronze objects has also fallen accordingly, and bronze has lost the additional halo of the monetary unit of measurement, and the net worth has shrunk a lot at once, resulting in many equipment in Fei Qian's current workshop and re-using bronze infusion as parts.

Because it's cheap, and the cost is even cheaper than ironmaking.

One aspect is one aspect, and the other is a very interesting psychology.

People used to hold copper coins, whether they were in their hands or in their arms, they all felt that these copper coins seemed to condense their hard work, heavy and very fulfilling, and naturally cherished, not really need to buy some materials, under normal circumstances, people will hide copper coins and stuff them in various hidden corners.

Now it's Jiaozi, it's paper money, and then hide it in a dark corner, I'm afraid......

And the paper money is too light, when it became a substitute in the early days, many people did not believe it, and even did not think that this was the so-called "money".

Anyone with a little financial knowledge knows that because of the fast circulation of banknotes, there is no need to prepare a very large number of Jiaozi here to keep up with the needs of the entire Binh Duong economy. In this way, a substantial increase in the exchange of goods in the market was ensured, and inflation caused by too much paper money was not manifested.

Most of the displaced people who fled from Guanzhong went north to Yinshan, and those who had a little family background naturally couldn't go to Yinshan to farm with those bitter haha, but stayed in Pingyang with relatives and friends. Even if there are no relatives and friends, they are trying their best to open up their relationships, and how to say that they are also floating near Pingyang, just like drifting north in later generations......

Because Binh Duong is in high demand and the information is timely, even if it is a temporary difficulty, as long as you seize one or two opportunities, you can make a new fortune. This kind of truth, these poor families and rural tyrants who have experienced ups and downs are naturally clear.

In ancient times, the fastest place to transmit information has always been a restaurant.

The nature of most Chinese people is to say anything with a few cups of cat pee......

Although there is no Erguotou here in Binh Duong now, whether it is golden pulp wine, corn wine, or even wine brought by Qianghu, the price varies from high to low, and the variety is quite rich, so it is common for another bottle of wine to blow to others to doubt life.

So here in Pingyang Sheden Tower, business is super good almost every day.

If you don't have much money, sitting on the first floor or in the pergola outside the building, drinking sour and light wine, with black and rough coarse cakes, if you can come to one or two big stuffed meat buns with the signature of Sheden Building, it is the envy of the surrounding life.

Those who can go up to the second floor are basically more or less wealthy, ordering some side dishes, playing a pot of rice wine or alcoholic wine, eating and drinking slowly, testing each other, exchanging various news and trading needs.

On the third floor, it is all a private seat separated out, which is much more expensive than the consumption on the second floor, but those who can go up to the third floor are basically some masters who don't care about money, and what they need is something else......

Like now.

In a private room, several people sat together.

“…… Do you know, now, the original Zhonglang General has visited the West! As soon as these words came out, the faces of several people present changed slightly, and they looked quite colorful......
