Chapter 628 The virtue of a meal will be repaid, and the grievances of the eyes will be repaid
Li Jing is indeed deliberately embarrassing Lu Yongzhi now.
This time, Gao Yu's provocative behavior made Li Jing very angry. His strong counterattack is to show Gao Yu his attitude. Although he is young, he is definitely not something that Gao Yu can handle at will.
The counterattack of the Zhenguo army, Li Jing also took a lot of risks, plundering the coast, and Li Jing's reputation in the coastal area was much worse. But he had to do this, and even because of this incident, Li Jing also received a lot of negative comments in the court, saying that he was arrogant and domineering.
paid such a big price, of course Li Jing had to rectify Gao Yu at one time. Otherwise, Gao Biao came out like this every once in a while, and Li Jing couldn't stand it.
In fact, Li Jing wants to end the current confrontation earlier than Gao Yu.
Although Gao Biao and the generals said that they were harassed and plundered by Li Jing, in the same way, Li Jing and the merchant fleet of Dengzhou Town did not dare to go south now, not only the Huai River, the Yangtze River, Surabaya and other routes were unsafe, but it was also unsafe to go by sea. The trade routes were cut off, these markets in the southeast of Jianghuai were lost, and every day that passed, Li Jing's losses were extremely huge.
The goods produced by the workshops are piled up in the warehouse, and the goods cannot be sent, and the money is recovered. The workers' salaries will have to be paid in advance, and if they continue, the workshop will have to work less often, the workers' income will be reduced, and the taxes that Li Jing receives will be greatly reduced.
But the current situation is like two swordsmen attacking each other, if anyone shows a little cowardice at this time, then they will be completely at a disadvantage and will be eaten to death by the other party.
Gao Biao deducted the goods, and Li Jing grabbed people.
Fortunately, Gao Yu finally showed weakness, but Li Jing couldn't immediately express his true thoughts. He had to pretend he didn't care. The determination to follow Gao Yu to the end. The other party will be really afraid.
We must let Gao Yu show weakness and make peace first!
This is Li Jing's strategy.
Only scared Gao Yu. in order to prevent similar situations from occurring in the future.
As for saying that he may have a mortal enmity with Gao Biao because of this, Li Jing doesn't care and won't be afraid.
Gao Yu is indeed very strong, and there is Zhou Bao, the general of Shence, who leans on him, plus the surrounding towns, and the power is extremely strong. But Li Jing expects that the current situation will be today. Although there were frequent mutinies within the towns, in general, no feudal town dared to send troops to other feudal towns. The internal affairs of the feudal town, the imperial court generally does not delve too deeply, and whoever wins the battle will recognize whose status. However, no feudal town has dared to attack other feudal towns, and if they dare to do so, it will be a rebellion, and they will be strangled by the joint efforts of all feudal towns.
When Li Jing dealt with Youzhou Town, it was because Youzhou Town had long been a self-reliant feudal town. The imperial court did not really control him. Li Jing also participated in the affairs of Youzhou in the name of supporting Li Keju's father and son.
previously exterminated Wang Jingwu. Li Jing also has the name of the envoy of Ziqing Town, and he sent troops, which can barely be regarded as dealing with the internal affairs of the town.
But if Gao Biao wanted to send troops to deal with Li Jing, it would be completely different. Li Jing is now dealing with Gao Yu, and he can pretend to be a pirate to attack and harass, and he will not attack the city and occupy an area. But it was impossible for Gao Biao to send a small force to harass Li Jing.
As for later.
Li Jing doesn't have to worry about Gao Yu, his strategic direction is Liaodong, Liaoxi and Youzhou, in the north. And Gao Biao is far away in Huainan.
Lu Yongzhi was ridiculed by Li Jing, but he had to laugh with him. Before leaving, Gao Biao had already made it clear to him that Li Jing, the madman, could continue to do this, but they couldn't afford to play anymore.
Gao Biao was originally a newcomer to Huainan, and his control over the local area was not strong, and there was an official position of the commander of all the provinces and camps before, but now he has lost this official position, and with the dismissal of the prime minister of the DPRK and China, Gao Biao is not as majestic as before in Huainan. Especially during this period of time, Gao Biao's deduction of Li Jing's goods has caused many merchants in Huainan to lose a lot. At present, because of Gao Piao's detention of Li Jing's goods, Li Jing retaliated, plundered the coast, and even further plundered along the Yangtze River and Huai River, and the whole Huainan was not safe.
These big clans in Huainan suffered heavy losses, and they couldn't trouble Li Jing, so they put the blame on Gao Yu's head.
Gao's support in Huainan declined rapidly, and popular popularity fell to freezing point.
Even Gao Biao's ally Zhou Bao and other generals began to be unable to bear the losses and put the blame on Gao Biao.
Gao Biao is now in crisis, and he must first ease relations with Li Jing in order to stabilize his position in Huainan. Therefore, when Lu Yongzhi came this time, Gao Biao directly stated that he would let him be his grandson. No matter how cold Li Jing treats, he has to bear it.
If Li Jing spat on the left side of Lu Yongzhi's face, not only could he not wipe it dry, but he also had to lean over his right face for Li Jing to spit out again.
"Gao Shizhong has already figured it out, and it was all a misunderstanding made by the people below before. Now the high attendants have punished the people below, and ordered the return of all the seized goods, the seized merchants, and the other shops, ships, etc., which have been seized. Lu Yongzhi smiled as much as he could.
"Is it really a misunderstanding?"
"It's definitely a misunderstanding, it's a complete misunderstanding!"
Li Jing said coldly: "What about the goods and people seized by Dizhenhai and other towns, and the shops that were sealed? ”
"Gao Shizhong personally sent people to contact the towns, and this matter was also a misunderstanding, and the goods have been released."
Li Jing picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Over there, Li Rang immediately said in a high-pitched voice: "Send off!" ”
Several guards came in, walked up to Lu Yongzhi, stretched out their hands, and motioned for him to leave.
Lu Yongzhi's face changed again and again, and he whispered to Li Jing: "The county king, the high servant has expressed the sincerity of reconciliation, and I hope that the county king will also show sincerity and recall your subordinates." ”
Li Jing ignored him, and Li Rang sneered beside him: "Tell us sincerity now?" Well, I'll calculate the sincerity with you, because of your misunderstanding, we have suffered heavy losses, two months, the southbound trade route has been interrupted, and the goods on the Jianghuai line have not been sold, do you know how much we have lost? ”
"How many?" Lu Yong subconsciously asked, and then immediately regretted it.
Sure enough, Li Rang sneered twice, picked up the abacus and pulled it, "The loss is not less than tens of millions!" ”
Lu Yongzhi almost didn't fall up in one breath in his chest, and he almost scolded. What's the matter, I'll give it back to you. actually lost tens of millions. Fool the devils. But now I had to whisper with him: "It's all a misunderstanding." In fact, we have also suffered a lot of losses, not only property damage, but also people, in the past two months, we have lost almost 100,000 people. ”
"Why, you blame us for losing people, don't you mean that we robbed your people?" Zhou Dewei shouted loudly, almost scaring Lu Yongzhi to the ground.
"This" Lu Yongzhi was sweating profusely. "Gao Shizhong's meaning, what happened before is written off. The goods and people that have been seized are returned to you, and the shops are returned. This, I hope that the king of the county can also make it convenient and put everyone back, as for the money we lost, forget it. ”
This is already Gao Yu's biggest concession, and the money and food that was robbed by Li Jing will definitely not come back. But of the nearly 100,000 people robbed by Li Jing, Gao Biao wants to go back.
Li Jing tasted the tea leisurely, and said lightly: "I don't know what you said about the robbed money, food and population. I don't understand and I don't want to understand. You go back and tell Gao Yu if the previous thing is really a misunderstanding. Then as soon as he returns our goods, shops, and people, the matter will be left at that, and we will not go any further. Otherwise, a certain recently got a news that there is a group of tens of thousands of pirates, ready to go to Yangzhou City to see the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River! ”
"Don't send it!" As soon as Li Jing put the teacup on the table, Zhou Dewei took the guards to drive him out.
After Lu Yongzhi left, Li Zhen said worriedly: "So tough, will Gao Yu be annoyed and angry because of this?" ”
Li Jing said indifferently: "Gao Biao, even if we give in, do you think he will recognize our goodness?" He is not sincere in giving in now, but it is just forced by the situation, and he must not be convinced in his heart. If that is the case, why should we try to reconcile with him? Besides, we did lose a lot this time, so I will never put back the money, food, and people that we have robbed. ”
"What if Gao Yu continues to fight against us?"
"Then let's go ahead with him, I'll see who can't hold on first." Li Jing snorted coldly.
Li Jingcai would not believe that Gao Biao really wanted to reconcile, since he was not sincerely reconciled, then why bother with him. Gao Biao is a person who eats hard rather than soft, and the stronger he is, the more he will eat you. If you back down, he'll be in for an inch.
Historically, when Gao Biao moved from the Tianping Army to Xichuan, he took a part of the soldiers and horses of the Tianping Army, the Zhaoyi Army, and the Yicheng Army to Xichuan to resist the invasion of Nanzhao.
At that time, Chengdu had a death squad force, a battalion of 3,000 commandos. This elite unit, which has made great contributions to the defense of Chengdu, enjoys extremely high military salaries. After Gao Biao took office, he immediately dismissed the military post previously promoted by the general battalion. Then, the payment of military salaries to the Raider's battalion was terminated. If someone refuses to accept it, they will be punished and served. As a result, the mutiny of the general camp was triggered, and the soldiers brought by Gao Biao could not resist the general camp, so that the generals rushed into the marshal's mansion. Gao Yu escaped by jumping into the dung pit after the worst.
Seeing that something was wrong, Gao Yu sent people with smiling faces and said a lot of good things to the soldiers of the rioting general battalion: they promised to restore their original titles, and return the salaries and clothing and food subsidies that had been withheld. The soldiers were deceived into returning to their camps.
After the soldiers of the general camp left, Gao Biao immediately sent the Tianping Army and other soldiers to kill the soldiers, but instead of rushing to the general camp, he pounced on a construction site in the north of the city and cut off the heads of hundreds of innocent craftsmen. On the one hand, Gao Biao claimed that the rebels had been exterminated, and on the other hand, he apologized to the Turquoise General Battalion, saying that he would definitely correct all his mistakes and completely restore the original treatment of the Turian Battalion.
Gao Yu paralyzed the general camp in this way.
Secretly, he let his henchmen secretly investigate the situation of every soldier in the general battalion in private, preparing for a bloody counterattack.
Two months later, late one night, Gao Yu suddenly mobilized a large number of troops, surrounded the homes of the soldiers of the Turian Battalion, and then broke down the doors, destroying everyone in the house, regardless of men, women, and children.
From this incident alone, it can be seen that Gao Biao is by no means a good person, but a guy who will repay him.
At the moment, Gao Biao's pursuit of peace is just forced by a momentary situation, and once he has the opportunity, this guy will inevitably retaliate.
In this case, Li Jing has only one attitude towards Gao Yu, that is, to be tough to the end, so that he does not have such a chance! (To be continued......)
