Chapter 494

Liu buthe used this form to analyze the current situation, which was recognized by his father. Liu Yuanqiao was a man of this era and the principal of Linqing customs. However, he knew the importance of this grand canal to Daming and that the whole north of Daming was short of food. Only through the Grand Canal could he continuously transport the food and silver from the south to the north, Only then can we support the operation of the north. If the supply is cut off, it can be said that it will cause great harm to the north.

Especially in today's Daming, if the weather was good in the north of the former Daming, they could barely produce some food to maintain their operation. Now the North loses income every year, coupled with the chaos caused by roving bandits and building slaves, but the whole North has been turned into a white land. Many places have no harvest, and all rely on the support of the south. Once there is an accident in the south of Daming, The Grand Canal was cut off again. It can be said that the north of Daming has become a rootless water and a passive River, which will dry up at any time.

Therefore, this is the opportunity for their Liu family to rebel. Liu Yuanqiao also saw here that Daming is almost over. The structure of Daming is very unreasonable. His capital is located in the north, and this place does not produce grain. It has long relied on the grain transported from the south for support. Once there is no support and supply of these grains, it will cause great damage and blow here.

Therefore, after the silver hatching incident in Jiangnan, the crisis was initially suppressed by Wu Zongda, but it could not be contained in paper. Finally, it broke out. Its outbreak was so fast and violent, which was related to the promotion and breaking of this relationship by the Liu family.

In fact, it was the rich and powerful people in the south of the Ming Dynasty who suffered heavy losses at the beginning. The loss of ordinary people was limited, and it was mainly spread in the rich circle and the upper class. If these people were united, they could still keep such a secret, but some people spread it and added fuel and vinegar, Rendering caused great panic.

You should know that civil panic and social panic will lead to greater unrest. Originally, it has caused unrest here, which is inappropriate. In addition, the fan of intentional people and the ghost fire in the dark wind make this place more noisy and chaotic. It is precisely because of the chaos in the south of the Yangtze river that Liu Bu's men think Liu BU should be in the south of the Yangtze River at this time, Take the opportunity to seize more territory instead of coming to the north to fight and build slaves. It's hard and thankless.

Liu Bu and his men have now sent troops to recover southern Liaoning. In the eyes of many of his men, they are actually thankless. They have done so many things, and the imperial court has always suspected them and suspected them.

They all think that the best thing is to stay in the south of the Yangtze River and seize more territory while the place is chaotic.

Liu Bu can't explain his layout to these people from the strategic height and level, but he must explain to his opponents before his subordinates will work hard.

Liu Bu said: "If I Liu Jiajun was in Jiangnan, would there be chaos? Only when we came here to fight and build slaves and let the power vacuum appear in Jiangnan, would there be chaos and more excitement in the local area. When the situation gets out of control, when the mobs push everything down and the situation becomes irretrievable, is it time for us to fight for more territory."

His men reluctantly recognized Liu Bu's statement, so they had to follow him here to fight JianNu and work hard together.

But their eyes are always on the south of the Yangtze River. They think that fighting and building slaves is only a temporary accumulation of credit. Their real purpose is to return to the south of the Yangtze River and occupy more places.

It's July now. The weather is still good. After October, Liaozhen is cold. It's frozen and snowy everywhere. Outside the Great Wall, it's a vast expanse of white. Such a cold day makes it extremely difficult to survive in these worlds, especially those who have lived in the colorful world in the South of the Yangtze River Bitter and cold life.

Liu Bu knows that Liao town is a land of hegemony. Occupying it can make him have the capital to dominate. However, others don't have his vision. They all think that Liao town is actually an alien land. Even if Daming is lost, it has little impact, and he can't get any benefits if he occupies it. This is why Daming has occupied this place for more than 200 years, but he hasn't been there Kaifu set up counties here to exercise direct jurisdiction.

Liu Bu is in charge of LvDa. Every day, he orders his soldiers to strengthen the urban defense here, build more fortifications and positions, and wait for JianNu to come to the south.

At this time, the war of Gaizhou broke out. General Xiao Ning was responsible for commanding the army in Gaizhou to fight with JianNu's white flag and inlaid blue flag. He played very well.

However, when they attacked the four guards in southern Liaoning, they really hit the key point of JianNu. They were very angry. They formed a large army in a short time and quickly went south. In order to eradicate the army of Liu Jiajun, JianNu leader Huang Taiji mobilized the war and ordered all JianNu to mobilize, all men under the age of 60 and over the age of 13 After Dourgen led the white flag and blue flag to attack Gaizhou, azig led the yellow flag and the red flag to attack Fuzhou, while Huang Taiji led the other four flags and tens of thousands of troops to the south to attack Jinzhou.

The situation in the whole southern Liaoning Peninsula became suddenly tense.

According to Huang Taiji's original plan, he also insisted that the Ming army is likely to besiege Haizhou with all its strength, because after occupying Haizhou, it can really occupy the four guards in southern Liaoning, which is very good for guarding the whole southern Liaoning Peninsula. With the urine of the Ming court, even if the front-line commanders don't want to attack Haizhou, the court will force them to fight, So Huang Taiji started all his plans with the support of Haizhou.

In his plan, he was ready to let the defenders of Haizhou fight against the Ming army. He personally led the army to help, defeated the main force of the Ming army under the city, and then took advantage of the situation to recover southern Liaoning and restore the rule of this place.

Who knows that the commander of the Ming army was unexpectedly smart. After occupying the three major cities, the other party did not continue to move forward, but defended on the spot. The other party's attitude was very obvious. This was on the spot defense. Waiting for them to attack, Huang Taiji had no choice but to order the troops to roll over and prepare to win the three major cities. The Ming army could wait, but they couldn't afford to wait.

There are many differences between JianNu and these nationalities in Northeast China, that is, they are fishing and animal husbandry nationalities, and they all began to cultivate by themselves.

Generally, nomads depend on heaven for food and looting for food. They have no savings at all. Even if your tribe is powerful and has hundreds of thousands of people, in the past winter, without food, these herdsmen will leave you one after another, and there is no cohesion at all.

However, building slaves is different. They start to accumulate food through their own farming. With food, they can unite more people and attract more people to invest. They will not leave easily.

However, it's not easy to build slaves these days, because it's the little ice age. The northern part of the Ming Dynasty is dry again and again. They are also deeply affected in Eastern Liaoning. Although they have made up for their deficiencies through farming, they still can't meet the use of his huge group. If they want to maintain their current momentum, It will inevitably need to be maintained through imported food.

In the past, they could smuggle through merchants in Shanxi and these border generals to obtain some food to supplement their deficiencies. In the cold outside the pass, food is more important than silver. They don't care about silver. Even many people don't understand why Daming people don't want so much food and cloth, but foolishly go to exchange them for silver that they can't eat or drink.

But now it's different. Since the emergence of Liaodong revenge army, fan yongdou was destroyed in one fell swoop, which shocked several other major businessmen. Previously, knowing that there was a court ban, Shanxi businessmen dared to openly and openly do business with JianNu, but now it's different. Any large-scale grain exit can't escape the eyes of Liaodong revenge army.

The imperial court also sent troops to destroy them. Even Mongolia and JianNu sent elite horse teams to search for the whereabouts of Liaodong revenge army and prepare to destroy them. Who knows, they couldn't find any useful clues. When a large number of food left the customs, they were robbed by Liaodong revenge army, and food and cloth were robbed, Even the cargo men escorted were killed and their heads were stuck on the flagpole.

This makes the major businessmen in Shanxi very afraid. They don't dare to easily organize the caravan to leave the customs. They are afraid of losing everything, and they can't recruit enough men and young men, because these men and young men now understand that leaving the customs is equivalent to pinning their heads on their pants and belts. It was very dangerous to meet the Mongols and slave builders, They often lose money when they disagree. Now there is a Liaodong revenge army that regards them as enemies. If they encounter Liaodong revenge army, they will only end up beheading. Therefore, this road becomes extremely dangerous. Although many people are greedy for money, they don't even want their lives.

About the Liaodong revenge army, Huang Taiji was completely angry. He specially sent experts around him to investigate the origin of the Liaodong revenge army, but he didn't want it. Even the experts he sent came back and told him that the Liaodong revenge army might be empty, It is likely that the Ming government or the Mongolian government sent people to dress up in order to rob their property.

In the Ming Dynasty, these unscrupulous merchants and officers and soldiers also investigated the matter. They investigated it for a long time, but they didn't get the point. On the contrary, many evidence showed that the so-called Liaodong revenge army was nothing at all. It was likely that JianNu sent people to pretend to be Liaodong revenge army. They sent people to rob and kill their property and kill all their people, so they don't have to pay money, Such activities as building slaves have not been done less, so the relationship between the two sides has become cold.

The emergence of this situation, but Huang Taiji is very angry, very headache.
