Chapter 251: The Great Zhou with All Efforts
Guo Wei wants to conquer in person, the ministers are very helpless, but there is no way, the recovery of Yanyun is also the ambition of all of them, and it is reasonable for His Majesty to drive the expedition in person, they can only step up preparations and make every effort to ensure the victory of the Northern Expedition.
Chai Rong has already led 30,000 horses to the north, and Guo Wei plans to prepare 70,000 soldiers to go north with him, so that the political hall will go all out to ensure the use of 100,000 horses, there is no doubt that this is a huge astronomical number.
Coming out of the palace, Ye Hua went directly to the political affairs hall.
"I think you should know the priorities, and you won't pull Your Majesty's back legs in military affairs, right?" Ye Hua crossed Erlang's legs and said.
Lao Fan, Lao Wei, and Lao Li stared at Ye Hua viciously, looking like they were going to eat him!
"Champion Hou, you can't help but underestimate our open-mindedness, recovering Yanyun is the old man's lifelong ambition!" Wei Renpu is colorful.
Ye Hua clasped his ears, "How do I remember, your ambition is to hold the seal of the Political Affairs Hall in your hand!" ”
Wei Renpu was so shameless, his face didn't blush, "The old man has lofty ambitions, how can you figure it out!" ”
Ya is really shameless!
Ye Hua was speechless.
Fan Zhen said with a smile: "The old man has been an official for decades, and he has been exhausted, if he can recover Yanyun and prosper the Great Zhou, he is looking forward to being old under the spring forest and teasing his grandson, but ...... Before the success of the Northern Expedition, whoever dares to cause chaos in the imperial court will not be welcome! ”
At this time, the prime minister is domineering and incomparable!
Li Gu also nodded in agreement, "The third division is going all out, even if he is scolded for exploiting the people, scolding me for knocking on the bones and sucking the marrow, the old man will also fight!" In short, all for Yanyun! ”
The three ministers stared at Ye Hua, and their eyes were like six daggers, not to mention how sharp.
"Tell you, we are in the rear, and you have to work hard in the front, squeeze out all the bad water in your stomach, and strive to drown the Khitans, do you hear!"
Ye Hua rolled his eyes, the master knows the importance of Yanyun better than you, what do you pretend to be for the country and the people!
"I want to remind you that if you don't have enough money for the war, you can issue treasury bonds!"
"National debt? What's that? ”
"It's to borrow money, to borrow from rich people!" Ye Hua explained.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Gu stretched out his hand, "Champion Hou, if you want to talk about it, you are the richest, take some out!" The old guy twisted his fingers, looking salivating, which made Ye Hua have goosebumps!
"All my money is used for investment, and I can't use it much...... You should go to the rich man, their cellar is sure to hide a jar of gold and silver, it is a waste to put it there, it is better to take it out and do something good for the people of the world, especially the Great Xiangguo Temple, which has a rich foundation, but you can't let them go! ”、
Ye Hua instigated a few ministers to do bad things, Li Gu nodded, "The old man is not afraid of being scolded, if you really don't have enough money, try your bad idea!" ”
"Can't be delayed!"
Ye Hua said anxiously: "I mean you have to move as soon as possible, you are going to move immediately, I need money, a lot of money." ”
"What are you going to do?"
"Let the Khitan mess up!"
Ye Hua borrowed a lot of labor in Cangzhou to buy grain on the market, and he could quickly stir up the price of grain, but if he wanted to push up the price of grain throughout the Great Zhou, he had to ask the help of the political hall.
Ye Hua came up with an idea, and asked several ministers in the political hall to issue treasury bonds with one hand, purchase grain with the other, establish grain reserves, and raise the price of grain, as long as the price of grain is higher than that of the Khitan, it can attract the outflow of Khitan grain.
Barbarians can eat beef and mutton, but the Han people in Yanyun can't do it, and the grain is outflowing, and they can't afford the price of grain, so they are bound to flee the famine...... More and more Han people escape from Yanyun, and the Khitan power will become weaker and weaker, which is a major event related to the success of the Northern Expedition, and it must not be sloppy!
After figuring out Ye Hua's plan, several people were speechless, this kid's bad water didn't need to be squeezed at all, his stomach was all over it!
They nodded together.
Anyway, the Great Zhou Dynasty promulgated a land granting order, and more than ninety percent of the common people have land, and the grain is self-sufficient enough, and the price of grain is more expensive, which will only allow the peasants to get more benefits.
As for the citizens, it's a big deal to use the regular closing position, in short, it won't starve to death.
Ye Hua returned to Beijing this time, and the time was very short, and he didn't even return home, so he went north again.
He knows very well the power of economic warfare, once it is launched, no one is sure what it will become, especially on the Khitan side, which has been established for decades, if there is really any genius who sees through his plan, it will not be good.
You must be cautious, and the more victory is in sight, the more modest and cautious you must be...... Ye Hua kept admonishing himself along the way.
When he returned to Cangzhou.
The first good news is that the Cangzhou city wall has been repaired, and the craftsmen are repairing the castle outside!
"Fast enough!" Ye Hua exclaimed: "It's almost a month ahead of schedule, right?" ”
"It's 37 days!" Zhao Kuangyin pouted, looking vibrant.
The transportation was dredged, and the Yongji Canal was able to pass the big ships.
Taking advantage of the rising water of the Chunxun River, Zhang Yongde used 30 large ships to carry cement to Cangzhou, and the original Kaifeng reconstruction project was progressing rapidly, and Zhao Pu drew 500 skilled craftsmen to support the front line.
In this way, Cangzhou was the first to be built, and within a month, the city of the Qianning Army was also completed ahead of schedule.
After the two cities were repaired, the fleet could immediately transport 500,000 stone of military rations to the north, which should be consumed in the war.
Then there are the champion's workshop in the capital, the Dou's workshop, and Li Chongjin's workshop, all of which are in a hurry, armor, swords, gunpowder, crossbow arrows, there will be no shortage of anything!
Then there is Guo Wei's decision to release Li Guangrui!
That's right, it's the young party leader.
Guo Wei is not on a whim, he also knows that the party members are capricious and cannot be trusted.
But everything is important for the Northern Expedition!
As long as the party can provide 30,000 cattle and horses, Li Guangrui will be able to return home.
Leave it to mind what happens to them in the future. Let's take back Yanyun first!
Ye Hua told Zhao Kuangyin the news.
Zhao Da was stunned, "Good girl, it's really desperate!" ”
"Well, this time the imperial court has staked all the capital, if you can't get Yan Yun back, at least it will hurt your vitality!" Ye Hua sighed: "So our burden is very heavy now, how is the situation of my entry into Beijing?" ”
Although Zhao Kuangyin is responsible for supervising the repair of the city, he has many friends and can be regarded as deaf and clear-sighted.
Now there are 12,000 people who have come from Yingzhou and Mozhou, and there are also people from Youzhou and other places who have returned one after another, with more than 20,000 people.
The Khitan expropriation and extortion finally provoked a popular uprising.
In less than a month, there were clashes in dozens of places, and many Khitan people died.
"They didn't notice it, did they?" Ye Hua was very worried, for fear that the Khitan would become vigilant.
Zhao laughed and said, "Khitan talents are not so shrewd!" They only said that the Han people had rebelled and plotted against each other, killing all the people who had revolted, and razing the village to the ground and turning it into pasture. ”
Ye Hua thought for a while, "Since that's the case, then tell those businessmen to continue to purchase and purchase more!" You have to pay a deposit first, so that those Khitan nobles can see the real benefits, and they don't have to worry about their lives! “
Zhao Kuangyin has learned the power of money, no matter how much you say, no matter how many conspiracies and tricks you use, a fool will not do anything to dig his own grave. But if you spend the money and let people see the benefits, countless people will immediately become short-sighted and blind, running forward with their heads bored, and they can't stop them.
Witnessing all this, Zhao Da could only keep reminding himself, don't be greedy, don't be greedy!
Unless you can be like Ye Hua and play with others to applaud, don't fall into it. Otherwise, I don't even know how I died!
Zhao Da was even more determined in his thoughts, if he has money in his hand in the future, he must not keep it, he will lose cleanly! has no money, live honestly, the most reassuring, he doesn't want to be like the Khitan nobles, become a slave of money.
There are not many people like Zhao Da who are so dashing, and most of them are still willing to be controlled by money.
A tiger is one of them.
He had received strict military training from the hussars and was trying to become a qualified soldier, but Chai Rong suddenly found him.
"This king needs you to get back to your old business!"
A tiger is stupid, he really wants to change his mind, the honor on his chest, he is strict with himself, he wants to be a man who stands up to the sky. But in the end, it's still in vain, the descendants of Wei Boya's soldiers, how dare the imperial court use it with confidence!
He lowered his head, very lonely and helpless, the old people all said that the prodigal son turned back, but who is willing to give the prodigal son a chance to turn back! A tiger gritted its teeth, trying not to collapse.
"I can do whatever the prince asks me to do, I have nothing to say!"
Chai Rong smiled, "This king knows that you are a good soldier who respects military orders, go, take your people, go deep into the Khitan hinterland, and help those people who rebel against the Khitan, if you can fight, you can fight, if you can't, you have to take them back to Dazhou!" Remember, bring back 10,000 people, this king will let you be the Marquis of Duyu, bring back 100,000 people, and this king will give you a festival envoy! ”
What does it mean that a tiger is stupid?
Don't you dislike yourself and let yourself be a bandit, how can you still be an official?
Looking at his stupid appearance, Chai Rong wondered how this guy had fought with the Khitans for more than ten years.
"What this king means, you haven't understood it yet, you can't let the forbidden army go directly to the Khitan territory to make trouble! You've been fighting with the Khitans for so long, you have experience, let you go and make trouble for them, understand! ”
"Understood, understood!"
A tiger then understood, and suddenly smiled. Earlier, when you are a bandit, you can be a fingernail with long hair - veteran!
Excellent bandits must know themselves and their opponents, and they are not capable of fighting, killing and killing. He himself is a member of the Daimyo's Mansion, and he has dealt with the Khitan for many years, so he is really deaf and clear-sighted.
Half a month later, a tiger heard the news, in Yijin Pass, there was a strong man, this person was called Yue Yuan, because he couldn't bear the Khitan oppression, and he was ready to do something.
Yue Yuan has hundreds of people under him, all of whom are capable of fighting, and their power is not small. All they lack is weapons!
When Ye Hua came back from the capital, a tiger with red eyes found Ye Hua directly, and shouted at him, "Master Hou, how many weapons you can give up, how much trouble I can make!" ”
