Shao Song

"Where are there so many Jinjun? The Jinjun was beaten with iron, don't you need to rest? The last time the 120,000 army went south, except for the fifteen Meng'an left by the Changsha, the remaining scattered damage was no more than 20,000. People, don’t you need to replenish soldiers and horses? What's more, the Jin people have not tolerated the heat for many years. Why did they suddenly change today? I agree with Yue and Lu on this matter. In most cases, Liu Yu borrowed the gold. People’s clothing is used to strengthen one's military power and to intimidate..."

When Qu Duan entered the hall, he directly saw a young man in red robe on the throne was talking. He knew that this person was the official of Zhao Song, so he forced his back pain and wanted to salute. What's wrong, on the throne? Condescending young people see it from a distance, just lift it up and ignore it. Only the words in the mouth have not stopped, but they seem to be talking about the pseudo-qi incident.

"But if so, there is one thing the minister is unclear."

Han Shizhong, who stepped into the hall first, no longer looked arrogant outside the hall just now, but just handed over as if there was nothing to do. "How many soldiers and horses does the Puppet Qi have? How much power do they have? Who gives them the courage to take the initiative to attack?"

Zhao Guanjia turned his head and looked at the next person, but it was during this time that he was sitting in Nanjing, dominating the front line confronting the Puppet Qi.

"There is always two hundred thousand, right?" Lu Xu was about to speak, and Zhang Jun suddenly laughed at him. "Seven or eight major states are there. Can't one state not be able to support 20,000 soldiers? It's not unusual to get a few civilians and get 200,000 soldiers and horses. It is also common to call one million soldiers."

"How can a state afford 20,000 soldiers?" Han Shizhong frowned immediately.

"Naturally, Taiwei Han doesn't understand this kind of thing, otherwise he wouldn't have almost caused a civil change in Huaixi." Zhang Jun was not at all shocked, but he made a mockery of the other side.

Han Shizhong hated secretly in his heart, but it was rare that it did not happen...One is that he is not easy to have it in front of the official, and the other is that this matter has long been concluded, and it is indeed his Han Wu's pot.

But how to say it? If given the opportunity, Han Shizhong would never let Zhang Jun go.

It must be known that in the early years of these two people, Wang Yuan balanced the court, deliberately instigating the two to confront each other, and neither of them was a fool, but just cooperated. But after a long time, too many grievances, coupled with the bad habits raised in the army, it is impossible to tell whether it is true or false...Anyway, Han Liangchen feels that if Zhang Boying is not good at fighting, he will be greedy for money and worthy. Tell him about pouring Han Wu?

But what Zhang Jun thinks is unclear.

"Of course, one state can't support 20,000 soldiers, but it depends on whether there is military salary, whether to drill, feed the soldiers, and use hot water." The chief minister Wang Boyan didn't bother to pay attention to these two people at all, but just stood by. And yes. "I remember that when Wang Shan, the former commander of the imperial camp, came to Tokyo from Hedong, there were 200,000 soldiers..."

"This is the truth." Lu Xu also followed. "Well, it's like a golden man with a stick. In this case, it is not 200,000. Jingdong has a population of 400,000... However, the minister is observing on the front line. There are still some troops in the pseudo-qi department that are quite powerful. For example, the headquarters of Liu Yu in Jinan and the Ministry of Yanzhou Puppet Marshal Kong Yanzhou. In addition, there is also the Ministry of Qingzhou Puppet Capital Governor Li Cheng, who is said to lead the army only on Kong Yanzhou!"

"Have heard of these two." Zhao Jiu nodded. "Kong Yanzhou is known as Xiaoyuefei, and Li Cheng's martial arts is comparable to Pengju...If you can get to this level, you are naturally characters...how many of them have such a core combat power?"

"Liu Yu has more than 10,000 people, and his son Liu Lin personally controls it; Kong Yanzhou is less, only seven or eight thousand; Li Cheng has a larger site, and may have more, but it will never exceed the limit of fifteen thousand." Yue Fei handed over to each other. .

Zhao Jiu finally frowned slightly.

Below Zhang Jun saw this and moved forward carefully: "The good instructor knows that the minister was in Xuzhou in the past. After surrendering to Yizhou, Li Cheng sent someone to greet the minister. Maybe this person can be surrendered..."

"Zhang Qing will be wrong." Zhao Guanjia in the throne finally laughed. "Although I cherish talents, I don't want everyone. Now that Li Cheng has become the chief governor of the Jin Ren'er court, how can I still want him? It's Liang Shanbo Zhang Rong of Dongping Mansion, although Heyin didn't come. , This time I also twisted and never came to see me, saying that Liangshan Boli is going to be happy, but after all, I can't hold it steady, but I don't care about it..."

Several military leaders below quickly became solemn, and a few acquaintances finally turned their heads and looked at the curved end standing in the corner of the hall door.

"In fact, this is why Liu Ni dared to take the initiative to deploy troops and generals, trying to make a provocation." Wang Boyan made a formal summary of the problem just now. "Think about it, since this thief has become the emperor, from his point of view, it must be clear in his heart that since then it will be difficult to be at odds with the emperor and Song, so he must do his best to be the enemy of us at all... It’s okay to worship Chen Dong, then respect the Confucianism, start the imperial examination, and today he took the initiative to mobilize soldiers and horses, one spring and one summer, it seems that the two countries of Song and Jin are not as big as his Jinan Prefecture... Must choose?"

Everyone nodded one after another, and Wang Xianggong's words could be regarded as the point.

"Therefore, there is no need to discuss this matter." Zhao Guanjia on the throne nodded and said calmly. "If he really dared to do it, the frontline Zhang, Yue, and Lu would not need to report, and just call back, but he should be fast, ruthless, stable, and not greedy... In short, remember one sentence, the golden man must be talented. It's a serious enemy, don't get caught in the quagmire of Jingdong for a while, just give Jinren a chance!"

Zhang Jun, Yue Fei, and Lu Xu formally went out, and then sternly replied... It seems that this issue is about to pass.

"What should I say?" Zhao Jiu was expressionless, and then asked Lu Hao and Xu Jingheng about the directions.

"War horses, quotas, military expenditures!" Xu Jingheng cherishes his words like gold.

"Yes, war horses, quotas and military expenses." Zhao Jiu nodded, as if he had forgotten these things. "Just talking about war horses... Just before Liangchen left the temple, he had already said almost. Let Kansai keep some and send it here to count as an integer of 10,000... Among them, the rear army is a reserve team, so it doesn’t matter; then there is Li Yanxian in the Chinese army. For the three places, Wang De, and Wang Yan, we will divide more and take four thousand horses. The former army, the left army, and the right army will equally divide the remaining six thousand... how?"

Everyone looked at each other, but there was nothing to say... This kind of thing is really endless, and Zhao Guanjia actually wanted to use it intensively at the beginning, but no one accepted it, let alone the cavalry brigade. Home?

Right now it is a fairer plan, and all compromises have been made.

In this way, seeing everyone quietly accepting the plan, everyone continued the discussion.

"Speaking of military quotas, they are linked to military expenditures." Zhao Guanjia continued to talk freely in the throne. "According to the calculations Liangchen gave me just before leaving the temple, a cavalry is raised in the Central Plains, and a person and a horse must be supported by a hundred dollars a year. Then, if you ride this ten thousand, it will be a full one million a year. Are you embarrassed?"

"Return to the officials, that's the case." Han Shizhong bit his scalp and said.

"This also requires the expropriation of specific objects for military use... right?" Zhao Guanjia continued to question. "Beef tendon, forage or something?"

"Yes…"

"If you don't count as cavalry, just talk about ordinary armored sergeants, how much does it cost to raise an elite soldier who dares to fight?" Zhao Guanjia's arithmetic today is extremely poor.

"Fifty pennies plus a dozen stone grains..." Han Shizhong responded carefully. "It has to be counted as the sergeant's family expense."

"Where is Taiwei Zhang?" Zhao Jiu continued to ask.

"It's the same, right?" Zhang Jun rarely answered Han Shizhong.

"Yue Qing..."

"If you want full military pay, daily drills are naturally what Taiwei Han said, fifty pennies plus ten shiliang." Yue Fei answered honestly. "However, this is naturally a crude number."

Zhao Jiulian nodded: "Suppose that the selection of the imperial army is fixed to 200,000 Jiashi, and then point to Zhang Jun’s memorial, and dare to set a 30,000 cavalry as a calculation, one year is 1,34 One million yuan of money, plus three or four million shi of grain...This will require the entire Southeastern economy to recover before Jingkang, and then it will be enough to hollow out the southeast...right?"

Everyone shook their heads, but no one dared to pick it up. Qu Duan shook their heads underneath, sighing secretly that this Zhao Song official family really didn't understand the customs. Moreover, Qu Da still hesitated for a while, whether to remind the official for the sake of the previous twenty whips.

"Not enough!" At this moment, the imperial commander Wang Yuan couldn't say anything. "Officials, Shuchen bluntly said that this theory of the officials is only accurate for calculation, in fact it costs more...because the income of wealth is a number, and it is another number when it is transferred to the army, and it is still a number when it is really sent... The ministers are bolder. If the officials really want to raise 200,000 elite soldiers in the imperial camp and 30,000 cavalry, they will have to spend 25 million yuan a year, plus 5 million stone army rations, nothing else."

Zhao Jiu's complexion remained the same, but he nodded slightly and said in the usual tone: "So, do you want to drink half of it when you eat empty salaries and soldiers' blood?"

The Qu Duan in the corner was dumbfounded, and the following Tai Wei was even more embarrassed for a while.

Wang Yuan helplessly explained: "Officials, this is not just a waste of money...transportation and loss along the way, civilians use them, they are all big heads, even if they are in the army, the officer's salary can not be calculated on the basis of fifty guan."

"This is the truth." Zhao Jiu nodded in response. "It's me who was wrong... You drank only 30% of your empty salaries and soldiers' blood, which is really remarkable."

No one dared to talk, but Wang Yuan didn't dare to respond.

"But if this is the case, 25 million yuan plus 5 million grains, wouldn't it be necessary to hollow out all the income of Southeast and Bashu, and then catch Jingxiang's grain?" Zhao Jiu sighed quietly. "In that case, it would be easier for me. I can shoot a few rabbits at Gen Yue to subsidize the family. I really can’t. I can also be a son-in-law who eats soft rice from Wu and Pan, and borrows some food to survive. Four or five people can always eat...but up and down Tokyo, hundreds of civil and military officials, and officials from hundreds of state forces in the world, what should they eat?"

"Your Majesty!" Qu Duan couldn't hold back. "You only count the imperial troops, don't Kansai have a share of the army? Is Chang'an not defending it?"

"Oh!" Zhao Jiu seemed to have just reacted, pointing to Qu Duan's face suddenly realized. "Yes, this new song is all right. In fact, from the perspective of transportation loss, it is more worthwhile to directly supply Kansai with the money and food from Bashu. We should also raise four hundred and fifty thousand soldiers there... but such a calculation. , Here in the imperial camp, isn't it because the world is rich in wealth and can't support 200,000 soldiers?"

"Officials... the two Huai Rivers are still there, and Huainan's wealth is not forgotten." Xu Jingheng reminded coldly. "Huainan's wealthy generals can offset Bashu."

"Not bad." Zhao Jiu nodded, and spread his hands. "Look, things are back again... I have to go to Wu's and Pan's to catch the autumn wind and eat soft rice."

"Official family!" In a moment of silence, Yue Fei was the first to be unable to bear it, but he held his head up and faced each other. "For the former army of the imperial camp, the officials only supply one soldier, fifty tongs and ten shi rations, and the ministers will never want to spend more than a bit..."

"The same is true for the ministers." Before Zhao Jiu could speak, Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun almost coincided with each other.

As soon as Han and Zhang came out, Wang Yan and Lu Xu also expressed their views in this way.

Zhao Jiu shook his head and kept saying: "You people, some of you believe in true, and some of you can't believe...good minister?"

"The minister is here." Han Shizhong bowed his head to face each other.

"I will give your imperial army 50,000 troops plus 50,000 soldiers for military use. When the time comes for the war, the golden army comes with 50,000 soldiers. I ask you to go up. You are afraid that you can only carry 30,000 soldiers. Go to the top, right?" Zhao Jiu said disapprovingly. "And Boying, I'll give you fifty thousand weaves and fifty thousand soldiers for military use. At that time, you will be able to pull out a solid fifty thousand soldiers, but how many of them can be armored and how many can be trained? If I really believe it. If you say anything, you will suffer a big loss... But then again, how can I believe you? We have been together for a long time, so why both of you play such tricks in front of me?"

The two Zhang Han barely show up.

"The officials must not criticize the two lieutenants." Lu Haowen finally said out at the right time. "In the current situation, Han and Zhang are capable of fighting, and the money is not greedy by the two captains themselves. The following commanders, commanders, until the team leader, whoever does not make a difference... the country The corruption of the military and government is a disease that has been accumulated for more than a hundred years. Relatively speaking, the two captains can always fight!"

"Of course I know, why should I be honest with them?" Zhao Jiu still didn't care. "It's not forcing them to do anything, but to explain clearly to them the difficulties of the country."

Just as Zhang and Han were about to speak again, Lu Haowen, who was next to Xu Jingheng, spoke again seriously:

"Officials, there are actually only two ways to go about this matter... One is to increase taxes in the southeast, and Jingxiang to add taxes, and the other is to raise fewer soldiers... That's all."

Zhao Jiu fell silent, and the ministers and Taiwei below were also silent...In fact, this is a commonplace talk. Even after Lu Yihao arrived in Yangzhou this time, he directly sent a plan to increase military pay in the southeastern Huaihe River. Because he knew a long time ago that if he wanted to raise soldiers, he could only increase taxes, otherwise he would not be able to raise so many soldiers with the tax revenue that was severely damaged after Jingkang.

But after a long time, Zhao Guanjia laughed and said: "The Jinjun East and West Two Roads are the standard version of 200,000 households. If you don't raise 200,000 soldiers, how can you defend against the enemy?"

Many people below instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com because they know that this sentence is the most important sentence today.

"But if this is the case, only by promising to increase taxes in the southeast and Jing Xiang to increase taxes..." Zhao Jiu said this, but continued in the throne. "And I am calling you all the lieutenants to come over today, not only to set the number of troops for you, divide the northwestern horses, but also to talk about the pseudo-qi... I really don't have these things in my eyes. What I want to do is exactly what I want to do. You have to settle this account in front of you!"

Speaking of this, the official Zhao in a big red robe stood up directly from the throne, and then confronted with awe, "I hope you all remember that there are some things I have to tolerate, but it's not that these things are right. I will tolerate them in the future. The first is! And what you eat and use are all anointed blood by the people of Southeast, Jingxiang, Bashu, and Lianghuai. If people rebel in the future, they can attack or cut, but you must remember clearly that they were all forced out by you and me. ! This is also the second thing!"

After saying this, Zhao Jiu turned around and walked out of the side door without waiting for these lieutenants to kneel down and plead guilty.

In Russia, Yang Yizhong, who had gone with the official family, went back and returned: "Wan Tu joined the army and Taiwei Yue left a meal, and the rest of the Xianggong and Taiwei left directly."
