Declaring war on Jiaozhi, Liu Xing actually gave an order to declare war on Jiaozhi directly after listening to the words of the three of them.

The seed master did not expect and Liu Ziyu did not expect that Liu Xing would give such an order so decisively.

The war in the north is thick, the west is openly rebelling, and the king of Kang in the southeast also occupies a large area of rivers and mountains such as Jiangnan East Road, Liangzhejiang Road, Fujian Road and Guangnan East Road, which is destined to continue the southeast war led by Wu Jue.

Now that the battle of Annam is starting again, the seed master is worried about how long the money and grain of the Northern Dynasty can support such a multi-front war, even if the issuance of the dragon coin can make the currency industry of the Northern Dynasty firmly in the hands of the imperial court. In the face of such a multi-faceted war, I am afraid it is also a drop in the bucket.

Liu Ziyu was worried about when he would be able to lead his troops to the front line if the north, south, east and west started fighting together. When will he be able to catch up with Yang Yizhong, and how can he not be left behind by Yue Fei.

Thinking about different things, the planter got up and grabbed Lei Zhen when he turned around to leave.

Zhengse stared at Liu Xing, and said in a deep voice: "Xing'er, if the battle of Annan starts, have you ever thought about whether the money and grain of our dynasty can support it?" And how can your ordnance, which is mainly firearms, be supplied to ensure victory in the first battle? ”

Hearing his words, Liu Xing still took a sip with a leisurely look.

When he put down the tea bowl, he looked at the planter with a strange smile and said, "Uncle Shi, how could I ever say that the battle of Annan must be won?" Did I say that you and Zhao Ding would coordinate the transfer of money, food and ordnance to Li Shaoyang and Zhong Xiang? ”

was asked like this, and the planter suddenly said in confusion: "If you don't give money and food, Zhong Xiang or Li Shaoyang will do it." How can they destroy the Li Dynasty that is unwilling to sincerely submit to our dynasty? No ordnance is given. Could it be that you want Li Shaoyang's soldiers to be cannon fodder, and let Zhong Xiang exchange the lives of 120,000 Xiaoxiang disciples and 60,000 Guangxi men for himself? ”

"Uncle Shi. You're looking too highly at that clock. Seeing him say this, Liu Xing still smiled leisurely: "Do you think there will be much left of his 120,000 Xiaoxiang disciples when his team arrives in Xipingzhou?" 60,000 Guangxi men, how many are really willing to work for him? ”

At this point, his face turned cold, and Liu Xing looked at the seed master and said in a chilling voice: "I dare to conclude that when Zhong Xiang's army marched south, it was the time when the soldiers under his command mutinied. I dare to conclude that even if Zhong Xiang arrives in Xipingzhou, at most half of his Guangxi soldiers will be willing to go with him to fight against Jiaozhi. ”

The embattled plan has caused chaos in Zhong Xiang's army. As soon as the seed master came to Liangzhou, he knew it from Hui's mouth.

When he knew that Liu Xing had given a plan and asked Xiong Shan and Yang Mi to disturb Zhong Xiangjun's heart in their own ways, the seed master was still very worried at first.

But Hui told him that there was no need to worry, because even if Zhong Xiangjun was in chaos or even defeated, Guangxi would not really be in chaos.

Yang Qi and Xiongshan people both had Liu Xing's secret order in their hands, and with that secret order, the two could not only meet King Kang's army to the east, but also use force to suppress all the rebels in Guangxi.

Dispelled the concern that once Zhong Xiang's department was in chaos, it would harm Guangxi, and the seed master did not expect that Liu Xing's rebellion and his military spirit were actually just the beginning, and the real backhand was to force Zhong Xiang's southern expedition.

Why do you say forced? Because Zhong was able to pull up so many people to raise troops against King Kang at the beginning, he was definitely not an idiot. He should also be well aware of the situation in the army under his command. Under such circumstances, there would never be a willingness to exacerbate civil strife in the army.

But he was the governor of Guangxi in the Great Song Dynasty and a feudal official under Liu Xing. Liu Xing is the prime minister, let him go to deal with him, does he dare not move?

Motionless. Liu Xing could dismiss him from his post and reduce his military power at any time with an order, making his army of 180,000 unjustifiable. At that time, Xiongshan people and Yang Mi will be attacked from the east and west, and Hunan can also send a large army into Guangxi at any time.

acted according to the order, that is, he was forced to go to Liangshan by Liu Xing. As soon as he led the troops, the people of Xiaoxiang would inevitably be more chaotic and mutiny would occur at any time. The children of Guangxi are also sure that many people don't want to go to Jiaozhi, for the sake of the life of a person who is just a hero in their minds, but not a big hero like Liu Xing, they will fight for him......

This is tantamount to forcing Zhong Xiang into a desperate situation, and after quickly thinking about this, the seed master looked at Liu Xingdao in a daze: "If Zhong Xiang can destroy Jiaozhi, you will crown him as the king of Annan." Then, let him fight with that Li Shaoyang for the second time. Okay, this is a more vicious ploy you're going to use in the future, right? ”

"Zhizi Mo Ruo's father, my uncle has watched me grow up since I was a child, and you guessed absolutely right this time." As if smiling, Liu Xing replied.

Immediately, his face turned cold again, and he said in a chilling voice: "Zhong Xiang actually has some ability, but his heart is different and cannot be used by my court." With his ability, it should be no problem to bring in 30,000 horses for him to defeat the 60,000 mixed army of the Li Dynasty. In addition, Li Shaoyang knows the people's conditions and geography of Jiaozhi, and he should be 50% sure of helping him quickly sweep away the army of the Li Dynasty. ”

"If he is defeated, Taifu, you can relieve a confidant from a serious problem. An order at will, in the name of the defeated general, let that Zhong Xiang never want to make a comeback. If he wins, he will fall into the deeper pit you dug, and wait to be killed by you with Li Shaoyang. Hehe, Taifu's tricks are vicious, I can't reach it! Liu Xing's voice fell, and Hui said with a sly smile.

looked at him sideways, but Liu Xing didn't show the slightest smile.

Looking up at the north, Liu Xing said: "This is autumn, compared with Zhong Xiang's compartment, I am more concerned about the winter clothes and ordnance supplements of the Northern Army." Uncle Shi, can you go to Wutai in person and urge Yelu Bashen to make the winter clothes and ordnance needed for my expedition to the Northern Army before the autumn and send them to Yang Yizhong? ”

As soon as he heard Liu Xing's words, although the planter stood up to answer the order, he secretly thought in his heart: This child has really grown up! With such a meticulous mind and such a vicious mind, it seems that there is really no one in the world who can beat him!

I just hope that he is so vicious, and he will never use it on his own people. I just hope that his method of digging pits and waiting for people to jump will never be used on the people around him......

He knows what is in the heart of the planter. If you are wise, you can hear it. Liu Xing naturally heard it.

Knowing that he was worried. Liu Xing got up and walked to his approach, and said softly: "Uncle Shi, please rest assured, as long as you are not a person who violates my general policy, and you are not a person whose thoughts can harm the common people." Like Mr. Hu, didn't I never cook a rabbit to him? I am what you taught and brought up, and I know how to do things with a bottom line, and I know how not to do things that are happy for relatives and enemies. ”

Chapter 744

Among the planters, Liu Xing knew more about the nature in the depths of his soul than more people, and Liu Xing said something like a promise, which calmed his heart.

The Planter represents a group of people, not a single person. Behind him is a legacy of the past era when Wenchen led the army. That large number of old-fashioned leading generals who still hold relatively important positions everywhere today.

After Zong Ze's serious illness, now those old-school generals spontaneously transferred the core figures of their group from Zong Ze to the body of the seed master, realizing a calm and even extremely quiet replacement of the old and new group cores.

Liu Xing appeased his heart, in fact, it was equivalent to appeasing the large group of people who can now be called the backbone of the military and government everywhere, and the effect was naturally to make the Northern Dynasty become orderly and orderly when the dragon coins officially began to circulate and issue the next day.

After the Dragon Coin is issued, what will be the reaction after the Dragon Coin that has been accumulated for two years officially enters circulation?

After all, the monetary system of the Great Song Dynasty has been changed several times, and there have been both large copper coins and paper money in the past. Can the people accept the dragon coins and be happy to use them?

Liu Xing has a bottom in his heart about this question.

The dragon coin is different from any currency of the Great Song Dynasty in the past. Real money, beautifully cast this is one of them.

Second, Liu Xing and the prestige established by the court of the Northern Dynasties in the minds of the people now, Liu Xing gave the people the impression of being a man of his word. It is determined that the people will not easily doubt the value preservation and stability of the dragon coin.

Third, in accordance with Liu Xing's instructions, Zhao Ding ordered all provinces and state capitals to announce the amount of monetary reserves of the Royal Bank of the Great Song Dynasty on the morning of the day when the dragon coin was officially announced.

600 million silver dollars were issued into the market, and the Royal Silver Horn still retained a relatively large amount of gold and silver. Although the people of the world do not understand what "reserves" are.

But they all understand a truth: as long as it's not fake money, you don't need dragon coins, and you can get gold bars and silver ingots at any time when you go to the bank.

Although the common people do not understand what reserves are, they are trying to promote the progress of the times and the development of society. When Zhao Ding issued the notice, he still followed Liu Xing's definition and clearly explained the core meaning of the new system of reserves.

In the future, the reserve will be the foundation of the operation of all silver and money banks in the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is the deposit of silver and money banks in proportion to the cash stored in the royal silver number headquarters.

The purpose of the enforcement of the reserve is to ensure that the bank and the bank will have sufficient solvency in the event of a sudden large withdrawal of deposits.

This new system has been passed by the Senate and officially included in the "Great Song Monetary Law". This kind of statutory reserve system is not only a risk aversion for the monetary industry, but also an important means for the imperial court to regulate the economy in the future, and it is a system for the royal silver account to control the credit scale of the money bank and the silver number.

The amount of money controlled by the Royal Silver Deal, the amount of reserves and the level of the reserve ratio will affect the credit scale of the Bank and the Silver Bank.

This system stipulates that the bank and the bank cannot lend all the deposits they have absorbed, but must keep them in a certain proportion, either in the form of deposits in the royal silver number or in the form of cash in hand.

The ratio of reserves to total deposits is known as the reserve ratio.

In addition, in the past, there had been a shortage of money in the Great Song Dynasty more than once, and this time Zhao Ding also investigated the reason and made clear new regulations according to Liu Xing's order.

First of all, from now on, only dragon coins are allowed to be used for trading in the domestic market of this dynasty, and all the gold, silver, copper and iron that have been replaced in the circulation link will be recovered and smelted by the Royal Silver Trumpet according to its market value, and will be successively turned into new reserves.

Secondly, in the border market transactions, Fanbang merchants are allowed to use dragon coins for market trade. However, when the Fanbang merchants left the Great Song Dynasty, if they wanted to take away the dragon coins, they had to take out the gold and silver in response. If there is a difference in purity such as "fire loss" and purity during the replacement process, it shall be filled according to the value.

Finally, it was strictly forbidden to obtain dragon coins from the Northern Dynasties or other third-party countries, such as merchants from Fanbang countries such as Dongying, Goryeo, Western Regions Small States, and Chenla, who had not yet established a trade with the Northern Dynasties. If you want to get dragon coins, you also need to pay the same amount of real money.

No matter which country it is, dare to use the goods to the Great Song Dynasty to get dragon coins. Once discovered, the merchants of the country will be permanently prohibited from directly or indirectly engaging in trade with the Great Song Dynasty, and at the worst, it will not rule out the use of force to sanction the country......

When Liu Xing asked Zhao Ding to give such an order, Zhao Ding immediately understood why Liu Xing did this. However, the seed master, Zong Ze and others were very puzzled, as soon as the seed master arrived in Liangzhou, he also asked Liu Xing in person.

"In the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, the currency bank came first. Why do you want to do the opposite, Fanbang uses my coin, and you still want people to replace it with real money and silver? Isn't this to avoid simplicity and make simple things cumbersome? The planter asked.

Liu Xing replied: "The currency of the Tang Dynasty was all over the world, but the Li Tang Dynasty was also constantly taking a large amount of gold and silver from those Fanbang countries through commercial means. During the Tang Dynasty, the trade of Fanbang was a trade surplus every year. However, with the development of the times, many of the products of my Great Song Dynasty can no longer form that kind of surplus for those Fanbang. If it is not controlled, when there is a trade deficit in commerce, then the gold and silver reserves of our dynasty will gradually be taken away by those countries. In the end, without gold and silver, how can we ensure that there will be no currency shortage? ”

Trade surplus, deficit, such words are very new to the planters, but as soon as Liu Xing said the meaning, he could understand the truth.

During the Tang Dynasty, the currency of the Tang Dynasty was used all over the world, because the Tang Dynasty connected the Silk Road and used its continuous power to the outside world, so that many goods that were not good things in China were sold to those Fanbang countries through various commercial channels. There are even some that have been exported to some powerful countries outside of external forces, and a large amount of gold and silver has been continuously brought back for the Tang Dynasty.

But what about the Great Song Dynasty when the time comes? In today's Great Song Dynasty, the main production areas of goods such as tea and silk are still controlled by King Kang.

Even in the future, Liu Xing destroyed the Southern Dynasty and unified the world. However, those goods were now far less in demand than they were in the Tang Dynasty when they traded with Fanbang, and it was inevitable that the Great Song Dynasty would not be able to regain the continuous surplus of the Tang Dynasty from the trade with Fanbang.

Whoever goes along is to use the goods to move back from other people's countries to gold and silver. Whoever rebels must let other countries keep moving gold and silver from their own homes.

There are many common places in governing a big country like cooking small fresh, and the governance of the country and the family. Therefore, such a simple truth can naturally be understood by the breeders who manage the affairs of the Leopard Forest Valley and the entire Seed Family. (To be continued.) )
