The economic base determines the superstructure, and without the economic support of the Jin merchants, these spokespersons cannot compete with other spokespersons with an economic base, and they can only be eliminated and suppressed.

When something like this happened, Xiao Ruxun didn't believe that those merchant gangs that competed with the Jin Merchants would be indifferent, they were definitely more enthusiastic about destroying the Jin Merchants than himself.

In the original time and space, the Jin merchants first chose the Mongols to cooperate, and then saw that the Mongols could not help up, so they chose Nurhachi as an investor, and finally achieved rich returns.

Before and after the era of Zhang Juzheng, it was the glorious period of the Jin merchants, after the death of Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei was in power, the Jin merchants reached a small peak, Wang Chonggu served as the governor of Xuanda, used power for the benefit of the family, and opened the door to border trade.

You Jin Shang is too much, just make money on your own territory, and stretch your claws to our territory to win over our readers!

Later, although interest groups in various places occasionally confronted each other, but in the face of the Jin merchants, they were basically the same and scolded, and the Jin merchants saw that everyone did not take them to play, and in order to survive, to survive, to develop and grow, they could only abandon the Ming government and choose other forces.

At first, it was estimated that they just wanted to gain a foothold outside the Guanxi and expand their influence to places where they could not expand with the local merchant gangs, because they could not compete with the local merchant gangs in those places, but they did not expect that Nurhachi was a real potential stock, and he could actually sweep Liaodong and defeat the Ming government army.

Then the Jin merchants fully supported Nurhachi, and thought of using the method of flipping the table to fight against the other forces that united against him, and the rest of the matter is the history of the rise and fall of the eight imperial merchants.

Originally, Xiao Ruxun imagined that it would take a long time to completely destroy these forces of the existing Jin merchants, but he didn't expect the northern captives to go south, and directly overturn the situation by flipping the table, they could use the control of the official to speak for them, but they couldn't control the northern captives.

Even Xiao Ruxun still has some faint thoughts in his heart about letting the North kill more Jin merchants and destroy more big households, so that he can destroy it faster, when the normal reform channel cannot operate, breaking and standing up is the only way, otherwise, it will be a complete collapse.

The Jin Shang forces have obviously developed to the point where Shanxi needs to break and stand up.

It's just that the people of Shanxi have suffered, and the northern captives have certainly destroyed the Jin merchant forces, but they have also been hurt and become innocent pond fish, so let's get more of the food privately stored by these big families for the people to live, at least survive this winter.

Xiao Ruxun didn't sleep much that night, and in the early hours of the morning, he sent an advance team to find the grain caves back a few people, and reported to him the news of the discovery of seven large grain caves, and the preliminary estimate was that each of the seven grain caves had about 20,000 stones of grain, and it was estimated that there were more than 100,000 stones, which was enough for the refugees in Taiyuan City.

Xiao Ruxun relieved himself, and then arranged for someone to prepare carts and other items overnight, preparing to organize Taiyuan refugees to pull food, and when it was dawn the next day, Xiao Ruxun sent someone to call the refugees to get up at the place where the refugees lived.

After that, they sent people to send carts and other things, telling them that there was food to eat, but they needed to make efforts to transport it, and brought the food, so that the government could send porridge and let them eat.

The Chinese have always been industrious, and the issue of eating is even more ambiguous, although one or two are shivering from the cold, but seeing that there are officials and soldiers on the side to help, they do not doubt, and push the car all the way to the direction of the grain cave.

When they arrived at the grain cave, the refugees realized that there was such a large amount of grain hidden here not far from where they lived.

Throughout the morning, the convoy went back and forth, tens of thousands of people worked together to empty the seven grain holes, and when the last person returned, the porridge and rice had been prepared, and the refugees who had lost their shelters lined up to drink porridge under the makeshift sheds, with the army on the side, in order.

After eating the porridge, Xiao Ruxun announced the start of the reconstruction of Taiyuan, the first step was to repair and rebuild the burned houses of the refugees, and if they needed wood, they would go into the mountains to cut down, and gather people who knew how to craft craftsmen to form a team and discuss what to do best.

There is management, there is professionalism, and the action is natural and fast, and when the sky gradually darkens, someone has already begun to rebuild the house.

And at this moment, the sentry sent out by Xiao Ruxun to seek the enemy came back.

"What? The North captives turned to the south?! ”

Li Rusong looked at the sentry rider dumbfounded, while Xiao Ruxun frowned and asked, "Are you sure you saw the northern captives going south?" Didn't they go north? ”

The sentry hurriedly said: "Admiral, my subordinates don't dare to lie, after marching west for a few hours, the northern captives suddenly turned south and went south, and their whereabouts are very strange, we really don't know why, so my subordinates came back first to report!" ”

Li Rusong sat on the chair with his butt and rubbed his head around, but he couldn't think of a reason, while Xiao Ruxun stared at the map hard.

To the south, to the south, and there is no way to survive in the south, if they want to escape, they must go north, what is the south? Could it be that they still hope to go south and return to their hometown? How much of a circle should it take? How is that possible?

What else is there to the south?

Thinking like this, Xiao Ruxun's gaze suddenly fell on Qi County.

Qi County, Qi County, Qi County.

It's familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere.

Someone seems to have talked about it......

"Taiyuan is an important town in Shanxi, an important hub and general logistics base of one province and two towns, once attacked, the consequences are unimaginable, Qi County, the old man secretly transferred the Jin king's lineage to Qi County when he first went south in the north, so as not to happen again in Ningxia, if these two places are attacked, it will be a bad thing."

This sentence suddenly sounded in Xiao Ruxun's ears.

Xiao Ruxun's face changed suddenly.

"Qi County!"

Li Rusong was stunned for a moment and looked at Xiao Ruxun: "Admiral, what did you just say?" ”

"Qi County!"

Xiao Ruxun pointed to the location of Qi County on the map and looked at Li Rusong.

"Mr. Li, do you remember that Inspector Wang once told us that before the war, he thought of the story of Ningxia, so he transferred the King of Jin to Qi County in advance!"

Li Rusong blinked, showing an expression of sudden realization, and then a look of horror.

"The target of Beiyu is the King of Jin in Qi County?! How do they know?! ”

Xiao Ruxun shook his head.

"I don't dare to say that the target of Beiyu is Qi County, but Qi County is too important, I have to have such speculation and thoughts, if Qi County is in danger, and King Jin is in danger, then it will be a bad thing, at the moment it is not that Beilu is going somewhere, but Qi County cannot be damaged no matter what! Mr. Li, immediately gather the elite cavalry and go south quickly! ”

Li Rusong hurriedly agreed.

"Understood!"
