The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Chapter 96 Layout

After Xiao Chongjie led the remaining troops back to Yuanzhou from the front, the situation had stabilized with the efforts of Zhao Xin and his second brother. The economy recovered, and business travel continued, and he looked like a hegemony in his heyday. Zhao Xin was not greedy for power and did not want to

He showed up in public and when his elder brother returned home, he gave up the position of Jiedushi to him, and he led the Yuanzhou army.

However, Zhao Xin soon discovered that the eldest brother was not restless and ambitious. He not only arranged a trustee to replace the original officer in the Yuanzhou army, but also used his eldest son's identity to deceive his father and exclude his second brother, bribed the officials, and quickly put him in vain.

He took control of the military and political power of Yuanzhou. Then he stopped the series of reforms formulated by Zhao Xin, restored the old system, and made a lot of money to expand the army. He was ambitious to make achievements in this troubled times and revitalize the Bali Xiao family.

Dezhou City defeated the Jurchen army with only one state, and forced Yelu Xie to retreat and wait for assistance. This was something that had never happened since the war between the Liao and Jin Dynasties. Whether it was the Liao emperor Yelu Yanxi who took refuge in the mountains or Yan.

Emperor Tianxi in the capital and Xiaochala in the capital, even local tyrants, hereditary lords in the private city, and even the Jurchens who were defeated by him, wanted to get such a strong support.

In this chaotic world where heroes are rising, everyone knows that nothing is more important than interests and survival. Texas has this opportunity and will have to pay the price to make it surrender, or even just form an alliance.

Although these people in Dezhou are headed by Yelu Yuxi, formerly an important official of the Liao Kingdom, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is just a banner to fool the people, and the two little people who hold real power are still two unknown little people - the governor Qiao Kunhe

The Jiedushi Han Quansheng.

Now that we all understand that only by having relationships with these two people is useful, and who will know them either rich or noble? According to legend, the two "do not know the matter" not only let the special envoys of the Xijing left-behind office

The cold bench, but he did not continue to pursue the retreating Yelu Xie, and he killed all the people, making people feel that their attitude towards the Jurchens are ambiguous and they cannot figure out their purpose. Now his sister may be familiar with them, wouldn't it be that it fell from heaven

Good things coming down...

"Brother, I have been away from my hometown for many years and have been living in Song State. Even their names have just been heard. How could I know them!" Zhao Xin knew that the elder brother repeatedly asked about his reason, which not only made her feel embarrassed, but also made her feel embarrassed.

Helplessly, deny it again.

"Since you don't know them, why did you stop me from clashing with those people just now, and know that they kill without blinking?" Xiao Chongjie sneered. The more his sister denied it, the more he felt that there was a ghost in it.

"I and them..." Zhao Xin was speechless for a moment, and said in a hurry just now, but he didn't expect that his brother would catch the handle.

"I have nothing to say, Wu Mei, you are unwilling to contact them. Do you don't want to help me, or have other plans?" Xiao Chongjie asked. He also knew that his actions in Yuanzhou had caused dissatisfaction among his family, so why did he bring Zhao Xintong to the point of bringing Zhao Xintong.

When I went to Xijing for a meeting, I was worried that she would join forces with her second brother to seize her power again. Now my sister rejected her "good intention", which seemed to be a move.

"Brother, I'm not to hide it. I've had a conflict with their leader and made personal enemies. He ordered him to chase him and had to escape back to Yuanzhou. Let them know that I'm here, which will only cause trouble for Yuanzhou!"

Zhao Xin sighed and said, she had already seen that her elder brother was hostile to him and did not want the brother and sister to be in harmony when the enemy was in front of him. So she hid the cause and told the consequences.

"Ah?!" Xiao Chongjie exclaimed in surprise. So that's the case. "Fifth sister doesn't have to be afraid. Although they are strong in Dezhou, our Yuanzhou is not easy to bully. My brother will definitely protect you. One day, we will be strong and we will be destroyed.

This is the consequence!”

"Brother, let's not provoke them. That person's power is beyond your imagination. Texas is just a pawn in his hand!" Zhao Xin said with a wry smile, refusing his brother's kindness to avenge her.

.duyidu.

Read it

"Is that true?" After hearing his sister's words, Xiao Chongde was frustrated. No wonder Dezhou didn't even take Xijing seriously. It turned out that with such great strength, he wanted to dominate Xijing Road, and this Dezhou became a huge stumbling block in front of him.

They did not surrender to Liao and became enemies of the Jurchens. What did they mean?

………

In the evening, Zhao Yong held a banquet in the mansion to entertain the prince. Of course, this could only be considered a small-scale dinner. In addition, Qiao Kun and the few chief officials of the Kru Army were only about ten, so a long table was enough according to the old rules.

"Boss is such a genius. After you came, Texas not only defeated the Jin army, but also supported the people. The subordinates have been operating for many years but have not achieved the ten-day contribution of you!" Just now, Qiao Kun stood up and said, after the army was reorganized and a series of

With the implementation of the "people-benefiting" policy, the hearts of the people in the city have changed a lot, so he, the governor, has become much easier.

"Haha, in fact, this is all your achievements. I am just adding fuel to the fire!" Zhao Qi waved his hand with a smile, not taking credit.

"The boss is too humble. The Jurchens captured a large area of ​​land, but they were unyielding. The boss let everyone return without swords and guns. This makes me puzzled. Please give me advice!" Qiao Kun said, "He is

A successful businessman thought that he could be a good magistrate with the prestige he had accumulated in Texas, but the reality was so cruel that many people did not buy his account.

"Good and powerful!" Zhao Xiao snatched a sip of wine and said, "There is no human being in the face of violence. Who is not afraid in the face of blood? Swords and guns can conquer the world, but blind killing can only temporarily make people surrender, and blood can only increase hatred; at the right time

Gratefulness can make people accept it. After all, a stable and peaceful life is what the people need most. That’s all I know, and you can only understand the truth slowly!”

"Boss, after I arrived in Texas, I knew the righteousness of the newly recruited soldiers. It said that the Han people were a family, and there were only a few people who could apply for the conquest. Some people went to the Khitans to become enemies with us. Later, they could not be forced to do so.

The young and strong talents formed a new army, but they were still disorganized on the battlefield. Even if they were military laws, it was difficult to stabilize the battle formation, and they were finally defeated. But now after the "Good Award System" was introduced and the Field Award Method, applicants flocked to the recruits

At that time, military discipline has also changed a lot, and I am determined to fight!" Zhao Yong also expressed his doubts at this time.

"As the saying goes, no profit, no matter how early it is. Although it is important to reason, it is far from enough to make people follow the Kruel army wholeheartedly and charge into battle. It is far from enough to rely solely on big principles and persuasion. War is realistic, and it is also bloody and can attract people.

The people join us, and it can only be a real benefit in this chaotic era!" Zhao Qi said after thinking for a while.

Although this statement will make them feel sad for the ideal and aspiring "revolutionaries", it is true. Even the Red Army that year, many people joined the army were just to be able to have enough food, have money to spend, and no longer be hungry

As for class awareness and revolutionary thought, they are later stories, otherwise how could they have been "educated for many years" in their speeches?

"Oh, I understand!" Zhao Yong said suddenly, "At that time, our mansion opened a canal and could not attract people. The prince asked him to carry a few baskets of money at the door of the mansion. As long as you sign up, you can get the people in one morning.

, From now on, everyone knows that the prince keeps his word and never fails to recruit people again!”

"Yes, yes, this is the case! Thanks to the boss who used a trick, I remember Brother Yong, you were dressed as beggars and went to various farms to spread rumors!" Qiao Kun also remembered the incident back then.

At that time, he was just a small manager, and the prince was still a child. "Boss, the Han people and the Khitans had a conflict before the New Year. Could it be that you used secretly? "He suddenly remembered two things, although they were different in size.

, but it is similar.

"Haha!" Zhao Qi smiled but did not answer, and asked everyone to drink a glass of wine and said, "Do you know why I tried my best to open a canal and repair a reservoir?"

"It is to transform fertile fields and make more food so that everyone can eat enough!" Zhang Pu said first. Although they did not catch up with the construction of canals and dams, they knew the importance of the reservoir to the people in the village.

"No, it's to defend against bandits. The Pegasus in the canal is sad, just like a moat outside the city!" Zhang Ting waved his hand.

"It is to increase the income of the mansion. You don't know the predicament in the mansion back then. All the income in the mansion was only more than 200,000 yuan a year. This also includes the salary of the boss and the rewards of the palace, but the expenses of the mansion are

It's very big. Ten thousand guan can make the chief executive unable to sleep and does not want to increase his income. How can he be in the mansion today?" Qiao Kun said.

Everyone nodded now, thinking that Qiao Kun was right, and that he could not do anything without money. Now, 10,000 yuan of money is not a big deal for them, but there was no such big business at that time. Everyone was very careful and sent it to the store.

I can enjoy a few cents of money for several days.

"You are right or wrong. My original intention is to keep the people in Zhuangzi!" Zhao Qiong said with a smile.

"Save people!?" The repair of the canal and the retention of people are two things that are not related to the cattle and horse, but the prince is connected with each other. Everyone looks at the prince in shock.

"Yes, there were very few places in our mansion at that time. The tenants paid the rented grain and couldn't even eat enough food. They were ready to leave after the New Year!" Zhao Qi said slowly, "Think about it, if everyone left, ours

Zhuangzi would not be like today, nor would there be the Kruel Army today. At most, you would just be in charge of the mansion, accompany me to walk birds and fight dogs, and be a dog-legged person, so what we do now is for

Keep people!"

After hearing this, everyone fell into silence. The prince used all his financial resources to build a reservoir and turned the barren land into tens of hectares of fertile land, just to retain the people in the village. Now, I think about it, the prince has already started to arrange the situation today.

.

In the days that followed, the prince relied on these people to build a workshop, organized a caravan, and established a personal army. Until now, as long as it is within the reach of the powers in the mansion, they are regarded as the business and the army.

The backbone, they are loyal to the prince, never leave him, and even sacrifice their lives. Wasn't it just because they could rent a piece of fertile land and buy more food, which seems insignificant today?
