Chapter 202: I don't understand
"Zi'an, that Miao Taishi saw the worship sticker, and saw that it was the person you sent, and immediately politely let me in, and asked you a lot of things, including family affairs, Zi'an, you tell the truth, is the gentle lady who often comes to the inn Her Royal Highness the eldest princess?" Ge Shaohua asked.
Now there are several people who know the identity of the king, Li Wanyuan, Zhang Qi, and Sun Wei.
But there is only one person who knows Zhao Niannu's identity, Li Wanyuan, but he won't say anything if he kills him.
Mainly, everyone can't even think about it.
And Wang Ju's demeanor was calm, and he was not honestly afraid, which also made everyone negligent.
However, as long as you think about it, you can still think of many doubts from the words and deeds of Zhao Ji and Zhao Niannu.
Miao Jizong's behavior was also strange, and he asked Wang Ju about his relatives vigorously, can Ge Shaohua not doubt it?
"Brother Zishen, don't ask about that," Wang Ju said, but he was thinking in his heart, could it be that Miao Jizong had also heard some rumors? That's not, after all, Zhao Niannu is not small, is it true that he will not marry for the rest of his life?
"In addition, the capital has suffered an unprecedented waterlogging ......"
"Don't talk about the capital and the court, just about the northwest and Gyeongju." Wang Judao. Most of those things have nothing to do with Gyeongju, and the useful Ge Shaohua may not be able to hear them.
"I have heard this limitedly, the first is that the official family commends Ouyang Gong for his knowledge, if it wasn't for Ouyang Gong recommending Sun Gong to come to Gyeongju, there would be no such victory."
Now Ge Shaohua is in a slightly better mood, and when he heard the news, he almost crooked his nose in anger.
"What's more," Wang Ju was relieved, for example, Cai Ting came to Dashun City in the future, Cai Ting is a meritorious, but other people's contributions are also not small, but the names of several soldiers are recorded in the history books? Or like Wang Ji, he didn't even have the qualifications to pass on the Song Dynasty, but in the battle of Qingli, how many Wang Ji emerged?
"There is also Sima Gong who somewhere learned about the migration of Qingzhou, Sima Gong seems to have a book play, saying that the archers of the western Tibetan tribe know the mountains and rivers roads, and the material is brave, Jingyuan Huanqing is all relied on as a shield, forgive Zuo often threatens with soldiers, and those who resist are killed, and the current government takes the initiative to support the archers to retreat into the interior, and the passage of the Western Xia into the Kou is unhindered, and the border is dangerous."
Sun Wei did not give Lubu, but only verbal orders.
Sima Guang was in the capital, so he couldn't hear clearly.
And Huanqing has recently made great contributions, so some Sima Guang is not very easy to say.
So I got on this painless play, but the result was not reported. If it weren't for Ge Shaohua's hard work, he would almost not know.
It was this news, but it was the news that Wang Ju needed the most.
He lowered his head and pondered, he didn't know how much strength Sima Guang would have. In addition, Zhao Ji will not understand his intentions.
…………
Zhao Ji was indeed confused.
Wang Ju wrote only one line in the secret letter, offering the horse to King Ying, His Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yueguo.
There is nothing left.
Miao Jizong was also confused, but he was Zhao Niannu's maternal grandfather, and it was he who Zhao Niannu went to Yanzhou to find. Therefore, knowing some insider information, he brought the horse to Zhao Ji and Zhao Niannu.
Two good horses, but Zhao Ji and Zhao Niannu are not the sad Zhao Shu at the beginning, what good horse do they want that they can't get?
Therefore, Zhao Ji wondered.
This is not the original use of bamboo paper as a gift, it is also called a gift, but the intention is that Renzong attaches great importance to Wenzhi, and once sent a car of books to Wang Ju, bamboo paper comes out, and more people can afford to use paper. It's not a serious gift.
And although he is the king of Ying, he is equivalent to the crown prince, the future king, the king of the people is rich all over the world, where does he care about the gifts given by his subordinates, there are those who care, but most of them are faint kings.
What was Wang Ju's intention in sending two horses for no reason?
It was inconvenient for him to come forward, but his teacher could come forward, so he asked Han Wei to send someone to ride a horse to Huachi County to investigate.
Han Wei entered the palace and reported: "Your Highness, Duke Ouyang and Duke Sun are slightly suspected of bullying the king. ”
"Why?"
"The real battle in Gyeongju is not what is written on Sun Xun's son. The Tangut people invaded and plundered in five ways, and Sun Gong just ordered the three armies to stick to the fort and not to have troops. Only one county of Hwachi County sent troops, and there was no support from Gyeongju in the three battles, and it was completely a victory fought by the officers and men of several battalions of Hwachi County themselves. ”
"Actually, why do several battalions of officers and soldiers in Huachi County have such combat effectiveness?"
"Wang Ju also made a slight move to overstep the system."
"Tell me."
"After he went to Huachi County, he immediately inspected the army, and drew his bow and arrows on the spot to shock the three armies."
"What's wrong with this? At the beginning, he was just a child in Wangjiazhai, and he fought a beautiful victory. ”
"No, in order to boost morale, he asked his grandfather's family and the Zhu family in Yanzhou to come forward and buy a large number of sheep and pigs to slaughter and improve morale every month in the form of subsidies. He also used the method of training to give different rewards according to the ranking and progress ranking, and these two items alone cost more than 4,000 yuan per month. In addition, a battalion of Tibetan cavalry was newly organized to buy Western Xia war horses from the border. It is precisely because of this cavalry, coupled with the original battalion of cavalry in Liyuan Fort, that three great victories were achieved. ”
"This king has also heard about it, but it is agreed by the Xifu, including conferring the position of Zhao Zhong's commander."
"It's good, but this battalion of Tibetan cavalry has been expanding, has expanded to more than 800 people, it seems that they are still selecting strong Tibetan people to expand, and the minister's servants heard that it seems that they plan to expand into a large Tibetan cavalry camp of nearly 1,000 people."
"This is impossible, although the system of the Tibetan army is not as strict as the forbidden cavalry, and a battalion of troops will not allow more than five hundred people."
"That's the case, so there are only 500 people in Huachi's stabbing face, and the rest are assembled and trained in the name of strong horses."
"Are those Tibetans willing?"
"If it is the treatment of strong horses, they will definitely not be willing, but their treatment is the same as that of regular soldiers, and even when they train, they are the same as officers and soldiers, and those who progress and rank high are rewarded, but these money is also subsidized."
These are easier to inquire about.
After all, in some aspects, as Han Wei said, it is indeed overstepping. To say that it is strict zhòng a little, this is tantamount to raising a private army.
Therefore, Wang Ju simply generously laid out all the expenses together for everyone to see.
"Wait, let the king calculate their expenses, and the horses are going to be excluded."
"Your Highness, horses can not be excluded, at the beginning of the hundreds of horses were all funded, after the victory of the three wars, a large number of war horses were captured, and it was only enriched with the four or five hundred people of the new cavalry at that time, and the cavalry of Liyuan Fort was enriched, and the other is to transform the Baojie army of Liyuan Fort into cavalry horses, and the rest of all was dedicated to Gyeongju, so that Sun Wei could deploy various cavalry battalions. Later, the war horses that expanded the army were still war horses exchanged from the Western Xia. The imperial court edict gave a second-class horse thirty guan money, which could not buy a horse at all, so the imperial court recently changed the edict, and the third-class horse gave thirty guan money. ”
"Why did you give this edict?"
"The three divisions also have the algorithm of the three divisions, and their calculations are calculated according to Xue Gong's actions, the merchants exchange horses for salt money, and then use salt money to sell salt to the border area, exchange the money sold for materials, and then exchange materials for horses with the Tibetan people, so a second-class horse does only need 30 yuan. However, after Yuzang Huama defected to the Western Xia, the Qingyan of the Western Xia hit the Qinwei region, and it was impossible to change horses with this method. Therefore, after the third brother of the minister was transferred to the third envoy, he lowered the horse by one rank and increased the money by five times. ”
But he still can't buy a horse, but this edict has just been issued, and Han Wei doesn't know what the effect is.
"So how much is a normal second-class war horse worth?"
"More than fifty."
That is, every time Wang Ju gets a horse, the Zhu and Li families will lose twenty times. So much money from the two of them? Zhao asked suspiciously.
Simple, a thousand horses will lose 20,000.
In addition, the subsidy for food and rewards is more than 3,000 per month and more than 40,000 per year.
Coupled with the raising of 500 horsemen, one person plans to run 40 times a year, and another 20,000 times a year.
It seems that the bamboo paper sells well, but the workshop is not owned by the Zhu and Li families, and the Zhu and Li families and Wang Ju's deed shares are added up, but they are only on par with the Gao family. Maybe the Zhu and Li families have this wealth, but are they willing to go bankrupt and take it out?
"Those two families took out a lot of money, but not all the money was taken out by those two families, Wang Ju used some means in the middle."
"By what means?"
"He first joined forces with the officers and soldiers to ban private merchants, and coerced Gyeongju merchants not to operate illegal salt, at least not to pass through Hwachi Road."
"Can that get through?" Zhao asked suspiciously.
The stakes of this private salt, Wang Ju, once explained to Zhao Ji.
It can only be tightened, and it can't be banned!
That's why he said two strategies in front of his father, queen and mother, the first policy was to immediately ban the mutual market gifts, and the second policy was to forcibly dump low-priced salt at the border to suppress the sales of green salt. Use the economy to force Western Xia to bow down.
This low price is the cost price, and after calculating the freight and the cost of salt production, the imperial court dumps at the border without profit.
But the father was a little worried, afraid that the Western Xia would really be forced into a hurry and a real invasion, so the Song Dynasty would be even worse. So listened to it, just in favor of a good idea, and did not execute.
Wang Juqiang forbids illegal salt, and if he doesn't get it right, it will cause controversy.
It happened that the Baojie army had instructed to collude with the smuggling of salt merchants, and was sentenced by Sun Chu to be beheaded after the autumn, and several businessmen were punished. Wang Ju asked the steward of the Zhu family to take advantage of this situation to negotiate with the merchants of Gyeongju, and they only got 10% of the profits, and encouraged them to buy horses, and even sent officers and soldiers to escort them, and sent troops to exterminate the mountain bandits in Ziwu Mountain. At the same time, the Xinfan cavalry camp was stationed outside Huachi City, where it must pass. Forced by both hard and soft, those people had to agree to come down. ”
At first, he didn't agree to suppress the bandits, but Han Wei sent a doorman to inquire, and it was impossible to find out all the inside stories, so they talked about it together.
"Is it possible that private traders have so much profit?"
"It's not just a private businessman, but he also introduces a very difficult spirit, Your Highness, you can taste it." Han Wei carefully poured out a glass of soju from the jug and let Zhao Ji drink it.
Zhao Ji didn't care too much, the Song Dynasty had spirits, about twenty degrees. But no matter how strong the wine was, it was only a small glass, so he lowered his neck and drank it, and then choked and coughed, and said loudly, "What kind of wine is this?" ”
"Although it is difficult to drink, but the northwest is freezing, and this wine will be very warm when you drink it."
"This king understands, that is, the profits of wine and profit, plus some donations, to have these economies."
"This is basically the case, but there are still some methods, such as those training rewards, which are not handed over to the soldiers, but to their families, and not to give money, but according to the needs of various places, to give money cloth rice grain and tea, such as the lack of tea on the side of the Tibetan people, they promise to give them tea, such as the lack of daily necessities for the families of the banned officials in the capital, so they give them money cloth rice grain. Therefore, Ming Wei gave a reward of more than 3,000 yuan a month, and the families of officers and soldiers did receive more than 3,000 yuan in rewards, but only more than 2,000 yuan were actually paid. ”
This is easy to understand, but it is nothing more than to save money and costs.
But Wang Ju did this, unless there was a reason to do it, he made a mistake somewhat. Although he uses the so-called donation method in disguise, he is also working for the country with his heart. Therefore, Han Wei finally said: "Although he is trying to strengthen the army, this method is not very good. ”
"The two grandsons don't just ask?"
"The Western Xia threatened, but the imperial court had limited military and financial resources, and they still wished that Wang Ju would do it."
Anyway, they take the lion's share of meritorious service, and if they make mistakes, they can push the responsibility on Wang Ju, why not?
Zhao Ji pondered and said, "No, he wouldn't have made such an inferior mistake. ”
"I want to do the same." Han Wei was equally puzzled. This kid is very tough, I heard that the prisoners were interrogated in the Meridian Mountain, and the prisoners did not confess, so they cut off their heads one by one, and finally those mountain bandits confessed their crimes, and they still cut off their heads. and personally went to the battlefield, and heard that several Tangut people were killed, and the three armies were fearful. But it's just that the means are tough, but the mind is cautious, and he won't leave this handle lightly.
However, Zhao Ji wondered even more, what does this have to do with offering two horses? Do you expect yourself to say a few kind words for him?
Zhao Ji finally heard some truth about Gyeongju, but he still couldn't figure it out. r1152
