0313 Wu people are sad
When Shen Zhezi had just spoken about such an issue, the entire Yunhe Hall erupted into a violent sound of surprise. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Shen Zhezi removed the screen in order to feel the change in the atmosphere of the field more intuitively. Now as far as he can see, there are faces full of panic and surprise, not only those who don't know at all are frightened by this issue, but even those who have communicated about it earlier are also full of uncertainty at this time, I didn't expect Shen Zhezi to dare to put such a sensitive topic out for public discussion.
Shen Zhezi also expected everyone's reaction. The surprise and panic that these people are experiencing at the moment is not necessarily aimed at the issue itself, but they did not expect that they would actually throw such an issue here.
There is no doubt that the division of the state is a political event with great influence. Although it is fashionable to satirize state affairs nowadays and dismiss Taiwan ministers, this kind of specific political plot should belong to a secret conspiracy, and people are still not accustomed to discussing it openly after all.
Moreover, for many families, they join the business alliance only because the business alliance can bring considerable profits, and they never want to get involved in any cruel political struggles and dumping. Therefore, when he heard the topic of Shen Zhezi, he almost couldn't help but cover his ears and run away from here.
In fact, Shen Zhezi originally didn't want to enlighten the politics of the Shang Alliance too early, because it is an extremely long process for a group to grow from its establishment to its growth, and then to produce its own clear political intentions and put them into struggle.
For example, the head of the Beifu Army in history, its predecessor, the Jingkou Liumin Shuai Group, was accompanied by the founding of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and has always had extremely strong strength and vitality, but after more than 100 years of brewing, it finally completed the transformation from the head of the army to the lord of the country in the hands of Liu Yu. In this process, whether it was Su Jun, the homeless marshal, or Liu Gaozhi, the later commander of the Beifu army, they never formed a clear strong political intention to replace the imperial court.
Among them, the most suffocating is undoubtedly Liu Gaozhi, whose military power and the historical opportunities he faces are relatively superior to Liu Yu. But because of the ambiguity of political intentions, they have always wandered between the political forces of all parties, and when they finally decided to rebel, they rebelled and left, like the more famous Le'an Gao clan, all of whom defected to the enemy country.
The Yinjue Business Alliance has great benefits, far better than the current fields, which is the biggest reason why the business alliance can attract people to join. Therefore, although the business alliance has become increasingly large, its significance is mainly reflected in profitability, and the political tendency is not obvious. Whatever the political intentions of the participants, they all have their own factions and positions, and they will not turn to the business alliance.
For example, Shen Zhezi arrived in Jingkou a few days ago, and even though there were many visitors, these people either wanted to be reinstated by the Taiwanese ministers who abandoned their official positions and fled, or the Wuzhong people hoped to see that they were fellow villagers and had a business alliance and sought a position in Xingtai. It's not that they don't have political needs, it's just that they're not used to putting them in the business league for discussion.
But if a group is not political, the structure will be loose and cohesive.
For example, Qingxu Qiaomen, they are naturally formed by the township party, and there is the foundation of the Yuefu bureaucracy, when the Langya Wang clan is powerful and willing to assume its responsibility, in the years when the king and Ma shared the world, Qingxu Qiaomen was the most important force in the current situation. But with the defeat of Wang Dun, Wang Dao was self-conscious and timid to take responsibility, and the Qingxu Qiaomen had begun to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye, because there was no longer a unified political goal.
Now that the Queen Mother and King Langya are in their hands, it was impossible before, and it will be difficult to do it in the future. Therefore, after thinking about it again, Shen Zhezi still decided to carry out an integration within the business alliance, and use the power of the business alliance to operate the matter of dividing Yangzhou, which is also to let people see the political energy that the business alliance has.
When everyone's surprise weakened, Shen Zhezi signaled the servants to knock on the bronze chime standing next to the podium, and then continued to speak: "This discussion is a little excessive, and you don't want to hear the details or don't want to hear it, don't force it. Open the gate for a quarter of an hour, and those who don't want to hear it should leave quickly. β
As his words fell, several people in the hall stood up with a look of fear, but looking at the others around them, although they were also panicked and worried, they were also curious. And Shen Ke and the other elders above sat there without moving, obviously this proposal had won their approval.
For a moment, these people didn't know whether to leave or not. They really don't want to join in this kind of political struggle, but they are afraid that this proposal will be passed after leaving, and unless they leave the business alliance, it will be difficult to maintain their innocence. And they are also curious about what kind of rhetoric Shen Zhezi wants to use to convince everyone. After all, there will definitely be many considerations that cannot be declared in such a matter.
Shen Zhezi sat on the podium and watched as many people got up and sat down, and some of them had even walked out of the hall, but they came back without a twist and a tangled expression. After a quarter of an hour, the bamboo fence fell again, and no one left.
At this point, Shen Zhezi also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, no matter whether he passed this proposal or not, at least the purpose of this time was half completed, that is, everyone had acquiesced to him talking about a topic with such strong political implications in the business alliance. In today's business alliance, although the Shen family dominates, it cannot create a one-word hall. When the strength is not available, to force dictatorship is to force people to engage in confrontation and set up many opponents that they do not need to face.
Therefore, even if the matter of Zhongfen Yangzhou is already decided, Shen Zhezi still has to take it out and discuss it, give respect to these people, and make them feel their sense of existence.
When everyone was seated, Shen Zhezi motioned for someone to set up a wooden plank, and then posted the various data briefings he had prepared, and the two large wooden boxes were empty. The remaining two boxes were pushed to the front of the seats, containing abridged versions of the data, which were distributed by the Shen family's servants one by one for everyone to circulate.
At this time, Shen Zhezi walked to the first plank and said: "This is the third year of Tai'an, the thief Shi Bing broke through Yangzhou, and the old thing of Sanwu was troubled. At that time, in order to wipe out the rebels, each family in Wuzhong raised volunteers, and there were 73 families involved, and my family was fortunate to live among them. The Wu people defend the land and protect the township, fight to the death, and the soul is eternal! β
As he spoke, Shen Zhezi bowed deeply to the north to pay tribute to the martyrs of Wuzhong who died defending the land. Although this incident happened more than 20 years ago, there is no shortage of people here who have experienced it, and they were soon recalled by Shen Zhezi, and they remembered the years of bloody battles and heroic defense of the land.
Then, Shen Zhezi turned around, his face had returned to calm, and he pointed to the board and said: "This is the protΓ©gΓ© of the Ministry used by my family back then, with more than 700 armors, 2,000 Zhige, more than 1,000 battle losses, and more than 5,000 rice grains. In that year, the harvest was 16,000 hu, and the following year it owed 8,000 hu. Human life is reduced to grain, and material damage is reduced to grain, a total of 125,300 hundred. β
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but gasp. Although Wuzhong is rich, it is impossible for every family to have such a huge industry as the Shen family. The loss of a single turbulent loss is more than nearly half of the people in the field!
"In the second year of Yongxing, Chen Min was a disaster......
Shen Zhezi ignored everyone's surprise, starting from the Shibing Rebellion, he counted the large and small turmoil in Jiangdong, and used the losses of his own family and other Wuzhong families in the turmoil as a model to describe the losses suffered by the Wu people in these turmoils. Of course, when it comes to the recent Wang Dun Rebellion, because his family died by himself, the data is not a reference, but because the information is detailed, there is no lack of reference.
With Shen Zhezi's narration, the atmosphere in the hall has gradually become depressed. In the past, they also knew that there would inevitably be losses in war, but when these data were really in front of them, they realized how amazing the losses were. Even if the family has hundreds of acres of land and a small family with more than ten shaded households, as long as they have not died in the war after turmoil, the price paid is 50,000 grains!
When all the data was finished, Shen Zhezi took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Living in this township, where the father and the elders live in peace, and where the family temple stands, it is the duty to protect the land, and it is incumbent on him!" But everyone, it's shocking! I'm waiting for Wu Shi, how much righteous blood can be shed! β
Shen Zhezi's shout echoed in the grand hall, and this move also directly questioned his personal heart. Yes, the day before yesterday, today, tomorrow! When will the world be peaceful, and when will Jiangdong be fine? Earlier, some people were still complacent because of the great profits they had made in the business alliance in the past few years, but seeing the price their families had paid in these chaos in the past, they were shocked, and their mood was no longer happy.
Especially when I think of the coming day or the need to raise a rebel army to quell the Jiankang military disaster, it is indispensable to have a series of battles, and the loss of manpower and material resources, I can't bear to think deeply. As Shen Zhezi said, how much righteous blood does the Wu people still have to shed?
"There is a lot of turmoil in Wudi, and every time the rebel army rises! Why can't we, the Wu people, have our own military state? Can't have your own soldiers? β
When all the data is explained, Shen Zhezi's conclusions are about to come out. The reason why the Wu people have to raise a large number of volunteers every time there is turmoil is because since the Chinese Dynasty, the imperial court has suppressed the Wu people.
The only Huiji in the land of Sanwu who can barely be called Fangzhen, has less than 2,000 military households, Shen Chong supervises the military in eastern Zhejiang, and there are less than 10,000 county soldiers who can be in charge, and it is also the worst armament at the moment, even inferior to the homeless! Because in addition to military service, the county soldiers still bear heavy labor taxes. Therefore, once there is a war, each family must raise an uprising to ensure that Wuzhong is safe.
"This time the trouble of Liyang is nothing more than my Wu people! Today, there is a saying here, Wu Di is generous, there is great righteousness in the heart, money and food can be given up, and the volunteers can't afford to be armoured! β
Speaking of which, Shen Zhezi has drawn the bottom line, since the imperial court does not allow Wuzhong to have a military state, then the money and grain that should be transported still have to be transported, but there will be absolutely no rebels, unless the imperial court allows Wuzhong to establish a military state and levy it in the name of the regular army.
"Do you have me?"
Speaking of this, Shen Zhezi stepped down from the chair, calmed down, and then bowed to everyone.
After his words fell, no one in the hall spoke, except for the sound of heavy breathing that seemed to be rhythmic mixed together. After a long while, one person slowly stood up and said to everyone: "There were seven sons in the family, Shi Cheng died two, Chen Cheng died three, and now, I am alone." The blood is still intense, this time, I am willing to destroy the family and donate the country, if there is a person who raises his name to harm my villagers, he will die with you! β
