Chapter 442: Something Went Wrong

Liu Zhi pondered for a moment: "How do we start from Tangxian, Puyin, Beiping, Wangdu, and Guangchang?" ”

Changshi said with a smile: "The grain from the drunken immortal buildings in Tangxian, Puyin, Beiping, Wangdu, and Guangchang also needs to be transported to Lunu to be gathered. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Even if you don't get to Lunu, you need to pass through Lunu."

"We can plunder some of them."

"As long as you have enough 200,000 stone of grain, you'll be fine."

"When the time comes, we will casually push it to the bandits and rebels to protect ourselves."

Liu Zhi frowned and said: "Zhao Feng is not easy to mess with, this point of long history should be clearer than this king, can it work?" ”

Changshi nodded: "This is naturally clear to the ministers. ”

"It only took Zhao Feng two years to become a high-ranking official at the level of assassination, which is not something that ordinary people can do."

"However, Zhao Feng fought with the anti-thieves in the gall before, and then fought with the former Changshan Xiang Hong."

"Now Zhao Feng's soldiers and horses are estimated to be about 30,000 or 50,000."

"He can't send all of them to escort the grain convoy, he always needs to stay behind with 20,000 or 30,000 troops and garrison them in Changshan County."

"In this way, he can send out an army to escort the grain team, at most one or twenty thousand."

"We in Zhongshan now have more than 20,000 troops, even if we really go to war, we don't need to be too afraid."

"Moreover, he doesn't dare to use troops against us, unless he wants to be a thief, so the most he can do is intimidate us!"

Liu Zhi pondered for a long time: "This king always feels inappropriate. ”

"It's better to talk to Zhao Feng directly."

"With Zhao Feng's character, if we return him 200,000 stone of grain in half a month, he will not disagree."

"Big deal, give more money!"

Changshi said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, what you said is light. ”

"The taxes paid to the imperial court back then were robbed by thieves halfway through."

"That's why the imperial court didn't allocate a grain of grain back then."

"It's not to learn from Zhao Feng's means to borrow grain from the entire Zhongshan family, Haoqiang, and Shi clan."

"Zhongshan Kingdom will not have the scene it has today."

"And these grains also have to be returned!"

Liu Zhi slapped himself and scolded angrily: "Bastard! ”

"You didn't just say it yourself, 'It's not a lot, as long as the tax is collected, it's easy to fill it.'" ”

"Why are you involved in the plundering of the arson again?"

"This king has said that it is not proper, and you still pull out the family, the strong and the strong, and the scholars."

"It's really a mess, Zhao Feng blames it, take your head to eliminate Zhao Feng's anger?"

When Changshi heard that the prince was angry, he immediately knelt on his knees and made a bowing salute: "The prince is angry!" ”

"200,000 stone of grain, not a small amount, the minister is also concerned about chaos!"

"We can brake statically."

"If Zhao Feng sends too many troops to escort the grain team, we will speak bluntly to Zhao Feng and ask him to give us some time."

"If Zhao Feng doesn't send many troops, we will be in danger."

Seeing that Liu Zhi was about to scold again, Changshi immediately changed his words: "No! No! No! Don't be in danger! ”

"We can use the method of reducing or reducing the taxes of the Drunken Immortal Building to negotiate with Zhao Feng slowly."

Liu Zhi didn't give clear instructions, and stood up: "This king is tired, you can watch it." ”

After speaking, he stepped down from the throne and exited the Jingyao Hall through the side door next to the throne.

Wait for Liu Zhi to leave.

Changshi muttered to himself: "Alas! ”

"It seems that the prince still has lingering fears about Zhao Feng's soldiers."

"I knew this earlier, I shouldn't have forced Zhao Feng to participate in the Dong Coalition Army."

After talking to himself, he stood up and prepared to exit the Jingyao Palace.

As soon as he took two steps, he slapped his thigh: "Why didn't you send someone to snatch the formula of the Drunken Immortal Building!" ”

"Hey, I'm so smart."

"Drunken Immortal Lou won't run in Zhongshan Kingdom, and there will be more opportunities to snatch the formula in the future!"

At this moment, Changshi withdrew from Jingyao Hall refreshed.

Just out of the Jingyao Palace.

A guard ran over and arched his hand: "The sentry has just sent a message." ”

"There are a large number of troops, entering Zhongshan from Changshan Country."

"After their efforts to investigate, in the vicinity of the level, they came to the exact news."

"Judging from the scale, the convoy of people plus the escort army should exceed 60,000 people!"

Before Changshi finished listening, he was surprised: "What! ”

"Zhao Feng sent 60,000 people over?"

"In addition to the 20,000 people who pull the cart, there are still 40,000 escort troops?"

"Where did Zhao Feng get so many troops?"

"How could it be possible to send so many people?"

After being surprised, he hurried away without waiting for the guards to continue to report.

Changshan County, Taishou Mansion.

And they all sat on their knees in the council chamber.

Then.

A guard, walked into the council hall quickly, knelt on one knee, and arched his hand: "Enlighten the lord!" ”

"Zhang Duwei sent someone to send a document."

After speaking, he presented the paperwork in his hand with both hands.

The attendant next to Zhao Feng walked quickly to the guard, took the document with both hands, and then handed it to Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng took the paperwork, opened it and looked at it carefully.

After reading it, he said with a smile: "Zhang Liao actually pulled the army directly to the city of Lunu. ”

After speaking, he handed the paperwork to the attendant: "Let's circulate it to everyone." ”

The attendant snorted, took the paperwork with both hands, and handed it to Tian Feng first.

After reading it, Tian Feng said meaningfully: "It seems that the lord sent a large army to escort the grain team, which is still prescient." ”

"In the first year of the first peace, they actually levied 200,000 stone grain from the Drunken Immortal Building without authorization."

"If the lord doesn't send a large army, they may really do something to plunder."

"Two hundred thousand stone grain! Tut-tut! ”

Zhao Feng looked around and said, "The negotiation method they gave is to exempt the Drunken Immortal Mansion from paying taxes for three years. ”

"After harvesting the winter wheat, they will return the 200,000 stone of grain to us."

"What do you think?"

Li Gaoyi arched his hand: "This is too cheap for them." ”

"I think that they should be allowed to return 300,000 stone of grain after counting the profits."

"Anyway, with the current situation, the taxes they collect will not be handed over to the imperial court."

"It won't care."

Zhao Yunyi arched his hand: "The lord used to be the prime minister of Zhongshan. ”

"According to Zhang Duwei's documents, in the final analysis, this matter was robbed by anti-thieves halfway because of the payment of taxes to the imperial court."

After speaking, he glanced at Li Gao and Wang Ping.

Li Gao and Wang Ping were inexplicable, but because Zhao Yun was Zhao Feng's younger brother, it was difficult to ask.

"Because of this, the imperial court did not allocate grain, which led to the matter of them levying the grain of the Drunken Immortal Building."

"Not only that, but they also asked the families, heroes, and scholars of Zhongshan to borrow a lot of grain."

"I haven't paid it back yet."

Then the conversation changed: "Besides, we don't lack this bit of food now, just do what they say." ”

"These grains that are counted as profits, let them appease the people of Zhongshan."
