Chapter 914 Big news

  As for Zhang Xiaosi's accusation that he was the chief culprit of causing Xiahou's clan to become like this, Governor Feng naturally refused to admit it.

  Xiahouyuan, Xiahoudun, Xiahoushang, in any case, was also the founding father of the Cao family, and also an in-law of the Cao family.

  How long has it been since the Cao family established the country?

   With just one defeat and a little rumor spread by myself, can the Xiahou clan be reduced to such a situation?

   Is it true that Feng Guiwang has curse skills?

  Can a curse be placed in the air to make the enemy unlucky?

   To put it bluntly, in fact, Cao Rui's means and city government are not enough.

  Cao Pi, Cao Rui, plus Sun Quan, one counts as one, apart from the others, in terms of treating their subordinates alone, they are all inferior to Liu Bei and his son.

  Cao Pi is notoriously narrow-minded.

   Because Bao Xun offended Cao Pi, after Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, he deliberately found Xiao Guo and killed Bao Xun.

  Cao Pi borrowed money from Cao Hong when he was young, but Cao Hong was unwilling to borrow money. Later, Cao Pi took advantage of Cao Hong's family and put Cao Hong in prison and planned to execute him.

   Not to mention forced death by ban.

  Cao Rui is better than his father.

   But still somewhat biased.

  The Battle of Shiting, without Cao Rui's acquiescence, would Cao Xiu dare to lead an army of 100,000 without permission?

  Jia Kui disregarded his previous suspicions with Cao Xiu, and desperately rescued Cao Xiu, but was humiliated by Cao Xiu.

   Later, the two quarreled with Cao Rui. Cao Rui didn't count Cao Xiu's fault, nor Jia Kui's fault. On the surface, he said that both parties were right.

   But later they sent someone to comfort Cao Xiu, which was like slapping Jia Kui in the face.

   Who can bear it?

   I don’t know if it’s nepotism, but if the reward and punishment are unknown, you can’t escape.

   Not to mention the war that Cao Zhen planned during the Battle of Anding, does Cao Rui dare to say that he didn't know about it?

  In the end, it was still the same coquettish operation, not saying a word about Cao Zhen's mistakes, but instead shifting the responsibility to the defeated and captured Xia Houba.

  If Governor Feng crossed over to Xia Houba and encountered such a thing, he would just make the fake come true and rely on the big man to calculate the ball!

   Not to mention Sun Quan, how many years have passed since the case of Zhang Wen?

  When Sun Shiwan asked Zhang Wen to go to Han, he said it so nicely that he almost called him Xiao Wenwen.

  Unexpectedly, not long after Zhang Wen returned from his outstanding mission, Sun Shiwan pointed at his nose and scolded him, "He's so ugly and ugly, and he only takes advantage of other people's intentions."

   Under Zhang Wen's bewilderment, the Zhang family was almost sent to Jiaozhou to feed mosquitoes.

  In contrast, Liu Bei and his son are much more benevolent.

  Meng Da rebelled, and people from Shu said that all his family members who stayed in Shu were killed. Meng Da didn't believe it at all, and later it was confirmed that his family was fine.

  During the Battle of Yiling, Huang Quan led his army to seek refuge in the State of Wei. There was also news that his wife and children had been killed.

  Cao Pi issued an edict to make Huang Quan mourn, and Huang Quan said directly: "The minister and Liu and Ge Tui sincerely believe, Ming Chen's original intention. If you have any doubts, please ask later."

  In fact, Liu Bei's attitude towards Huang Quan's vote for Wei is: "If you live up to Huang Quan, you should live up to your authority."

   Not to mention Ah Dou, mediocre is a bit mediocre, but his temper is indeed generous.

   I don’t know if it’s because the place is too evil, but just after talking about the Zhang family, Zhang Bai came to Governor Feng with Zhang Wen’s letter.

   "How could you persuade Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin to agree that you should not grow grain or sugar cane in Jingzhou?"

  After reading Zhang Wen's letter, Feng Yong was very surprised.

  The aristocratic families have no integrity, this is a fact that Feng Yong has known for a long time.

   But to say that Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin, a loyal minister and filial son of Wu, would also betray the country, that would be an insult to Governor Feng's IQ.

   "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! This statement is wrong! When did Jingzhou say that they would not grow food?"

   Zhang Bai quickly denied, "It's just that the food in Jingzhou is really insufficient, so I asked the general to come forward and find a way for everyone to buy some food from Shu."

  Hearing Zhang Bai's words, Governor Feng fell into deep thought.

  So, a female college student who doesn’t study hard and goes to nightclubs to make money is degenerate; a nightclub girl squeezes out time to go to class during the day, is it progressive?

   It is also to buy food.

  One is that because of the shortage of food due to the variety of sugar cane, it is necessary to buy food from other countries.

  One is because of the lack of food, so you have to buy food from other countries.

   "Sugar cane, has it been planted now?"

  Feng Yong pondered for a long time, and finally spoke again.

   "Yes, this year's crops have already been planted. However, if you are interested in buying and selling grain, you should decide as soon as possible."

   "Otherwise, after the sugar cane is harvested in autumn, everyone doesn't know how many sugar cane seeds will be saved for next year."

  Zhang Bai's eyes shone with excitement, obviously he was very interested in Hanging Sun Quan.

   But it can't blame him.

   After all, Sun Shiwan first shouted at his elder brother Xiao Wenwen, and then suddenly turned his face and denied him after using him.

   Then Zhang Bai himself was exiled to Jiaozhou. If he hadn’t been taken care of by the Jiaozhou scholar’s ​​family, he would definitely have died there.

   Later, during the Lu Daiping Jiaozhou Rebellion, because Zhang Bai had friendship with the Shi family, he was asked to be the guarantor and went to talk about Jiang Shihui.

   At the same time, he also promised to ensure the safety of everyone in the family.

  Unexpectedly, after Shi Hui surrendered, Lu Dai, like Sun Quan, turned his face and refused to recognize anyone.

   Not only the scholars who made the rebellion were killed, but even those who did not make the rebellion, and even the scholars who helped put down the rebellion were demoted to common people.

   In a few years, they will use the pretext that the scholar family, who has become a commoner, broke the law, and wipe out everyone who came here.

  Lv Dai killed someone, and earned in vain the wealth accumulated by the scholar family for more than a hundred years.

   Zhang Bai's reputation was ruined, and he didn't even get a hair, but in the end he took the blame for Lu Dai, at least part of the blame.

  Although it is said that ruthless methods are qualified politicians, Lu Dai's actions have caused Zhang Bai's social death in Jiaozhou.

   At the same time, it also caused great damage to the Zhang family's reputation.

  In addition, when Sun Ce took over Jiangdong, he had the old hatred of massacring Jiangdong's aristocratic families.

   Zhang Bai is now hoping that Sun Quan's family will die, and then the big man will take the opportunity to take over Jiangdong, and it doesn't even matter if Wei goes south.

  Anyway, he understood that Sun Quan, a monkey-wielding tyrant, treated the Zhang family as an outcast in order to balance the power of the government and the opposition.

   Abandoned son is a nice thing to say, but a bad thing is called a foot wipe, and it is the kind that is thrown away after wiping.

   Governor Feng certainly didn't know Zhang Bai's thoughts on Sun Quan, but he knew that Zhang Bai's attitude towards him might be a bit wrong.

  Because he saw a fanaticism in Zhang Bai's eyes, or worship?

  Although he has been literary friends with Zhang Wen for so many years, this is the first time Feng Yong has met his own younger brother.

  So Governor Feng really doesn't understand why this Zhang Bai has such an expression.

  Feng Guiwang seemed to be a little nervous, but at the same time forced himself to remain calm, shook his head, and said:

   "I'm afraid we won't be able to squeeze out too much food this year."

   After saying this, Feng Yong thought about it again, and felt that it was necessary to reveal something to Zhang Bai:

   "The big Han has been fighting against the Wei State for years, and there is really not much food left."

   "More importantly, after the harvest of autumn grain this year, Liangzhou will have to use troops, so next year there won't be too much grain to sell to Jingzhou."

   Again, before the big man takes Guanzhong, there will be no food surplus.

   After all, apart from people, Liangzhou's livestock industry also needs a lot of grain and beans.

  If it weren’t for the changes in the productivity and economic structure of the Han Dynasty over the years, the traditional methods of Wei and Wu might not be able to support the Han Dynasty’s continuous use of foreign troops.

   Even if they can afford it, the finances of the big man may not be able to spend enough money and food to quickly digest Liangzhou Longyou and other places like they are now.

  Of course Zhang Bai didn’t understand these things. He was a little disappointed when he heard what Feng Inspector said, and subconsciously asked:

   "Isn't Liangzhou already taken by the prince? Why do you need to use troops?"

   After all, Liangzhou is separated from Guanzhong by a Longyou.

   "It can only be said that most of them have been taken," Feng Yong explained, "There are still two gaps in the north. Only when they are blocked can they be said to be intact."

   "Notch?"

   "Yes, Juyanze and Duyeze, the barbarians in the desert can follow the river directly into the hinterland of Liangzhou, so the fortress must be rebuilt there, so that Liangzhou can be regarded as stable."

  Feng Yong sighed:

   "So, this year's grain is not expected to be sold to Jingzhou."

  Although it is said that the use of troops against Juyanze and other places this year is only on a small scale, and with Feng Junhou's current military prestige, there is no need for him to personally deal with those barbarians.

   But soldiers, the major affairs of the country, must be investigated, and it is never too much to be careful.

  When Zhang Bai heard this, he recalled that those guys in Jingzhou were still waiting for his news, so he couldn't help frowning and said:

   "Your Majesty, what should we do? Such a big event, I'm afraid we can't delay it for long!"

   Governor Feng was a little speechless.

   You also know it's a big deal?

   Such a big event, how the **** did you do it so smoothly?

   Obviously the plan is not like this.

   It stands to reason that this year should first increase the intensity of buying the comprador family in Jingzhou, and then let them release public opinion to test the views of the upper echelons of Wu State on this matter.

  If the response is not strong, or even agreed, then the progress can be made faster.

  If you are unwilling to agree, or if it is controlled by the Wu court, then the progress may be slower.

   But no matter what, the big man can start to think of ways to erode Jingzhou's grain market bit by bit.

  The difference is just whether it is obvious or implicit.

  The establishment of Yongan Yishi can just play a role.

   After a few years like this, when Guanzhong is conquered, the channels have almost matured.

  Will the big man conquer Guanzhong in a few years?

   Governor Feng had no doubts about this.

  The difference lies in how much the big man finally won Guanzhong.

   Waiting for the big man to sit in two kingdoms of abundance, to attack when he advances, and to defend when he retreats, he has money, food, and horses.

  Even if the entire Shu land was used to dump the grain, it would be inevitable.

   But the plan did not change quickly.

   "You guys have made big news!"

   Governor Feng took a deep breath, as if he had a toothache.

   "Big... what?"

  Looking at Governor Feng's expression, Zhang Bai seemed a little unhappy.

  He only thought that things were messed up, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

  Feng Yong glanced at him and waved his hand:

   "It's nothing, you guys did a good job, it's the big man's negligence, and he didn't expect this situation."

  Originally, this matter was intended to use the Zhang family's network in Wu County to plant a minefield in Wu State.

   Unexpectedly, Governor Feng still underestimated the greed of these aristocratic families.

  Thinking of this, Governor Feng subconsciously glanced at Zhang Bai again.

   At the same time, I was secretly glad.

  Fortunately, since the beginning of the founding of the country, the Great Han has embarked on a path different from that of Wei and Wu.
