Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 3 Shopping

When Xuege flew to Kansai and Northwest with the urgent order of Wufeng, Gu Ji had also arranged for the Gu family to start a large-scale purchase operation in the grain market of the imperial capital, just one or two grain purchases It is difficult to make waves in the huge grain market. Even if the Gu family put all their efforts to place an order to purchase, it only caused a slight ripple in the grain market, allowing the grain merchants to increase their attention to the laymen of the Gu family. Some jokes on Grain Street.

But when the Northwest and Kansai government departments used a large amount of funds from the Northwest Bank and received funds to start large-scale grain purchases, almost the entire empire and the grain market in the Eastern Continent were boiling. The orders, and later the overall purchase were swept away, and a large amount of grain was continuously transported by water and land from the Wuhu, Jiangnan, and Donghai regions to Kansai, and then from Kansai to the northwest. Merchants, whether by water or land, have become the distinguished guests of the grain merchants at this time, because the grain orders from Northwest and Kansai must be delivered to the granary at the designated location in Kansai County and Northwest County within two months, and The amount of food needed by the other party was astonishing. Such a large volume made the transport merchants and the owners of the vehicle manufacturing workshops so happy that they couldn't even close their mouths.

This crazy food movement continued until May. Even when the Five Lakes entered the melee period, it did not have much impact on it. After all, Li Wufeng's Northwest Army was watching the Five Lakes in the west, and no one I was willing to provoke him at this time and let him have the opportunity to step into the five lakes. The whole grain transportation operation went extremely smoothly. It was not until May that the entire empire and even the eastern continent showed abnormal signs of climate. I slowly woke up, but it was a pity that the whole grain buying operation had successfully ended.

And Northern Luzon also took action. Although Mu Haoran and Lu Man didn't know why the emergency order from above required a large amount of grain purchases, they saw that the order was directly forwarded from the Northwest Administrative Office from the imperial capital. , I knew that this was a direct order from Lord Jiedushi, not to mention the financial support provided by the Northwest Bank, why not do it? As soon as the news of the public purchase of grain came out, almost all the grain merchants in Northern Luzon mobilized to fight for such a large-scale business, and the city guards of Weito and Shuangdui were even more open to purchase. A large number of grain trucks from Beijing, Pasha, and Komini have been flooding the roads from these places to North Luzon, and this phenomenon has lasted for three months.

There is no suspense in the recovery of Hanzhong and Jincheng. When Wufeng transferred His Majesty's edict to Situ Jun who was staying in Huanggang, Situ Jun readily accepted Wufeng's proposal in the letter. , let go of Hanzhong and Jincheng, and returned to Wuhu, he has already discovered the abnormalities in the area under his control, especially the avoidance of the sixth army commander Kim Jong-yang and the stern obedience and injustice of several independent divisions. Situ Jun, who was a little restless, immediately noticed that something was wrong. He was already on his way to Yueyang for inspection, but when he found something wrong, he immediately returned to Huanggang, and the Sixth Army Corps that controlled Yueyang and Anqing finally showed its true colors and accepted the situation. Situ Biao, who was granted the title of King of Xiang by His Majesty the Emperor, appeared in Anqing, and the Sixth Army also declared allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor in Anqing.

Situ Jun, who was in panic all day long, was completely desperate at this time, and Wufeng's messenger also arrived at this time. After reading Wufeng's letter to him, Situ Jun immediately agreed to hand over Hanzhong and Jincheng, and promptly returned to the city. He surrendered his sincerity to His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor, who was overjoyed by Longyan, also bestowed the title of King Jin on his brother, but the fief was placed in Heshuo, which is still in the hands of the Taiping Army. Before that, King Jin was allowed to live in Huanggang temporarily.

Wandering leisurely in Daleiyin Temple, Wufeng in a Confucian robe looked extraordinarily relaxed. He is very satisfied that the two Kansai prefectures can be obtained so easily and smoothly. He entered Hanzhong by boat from the imperial capital via Huanggang to Jincheng. In Huanggang, he met Situ Jun, his former ally who has now been promoted to the King of Jin. The two never mentioned the past alliance. Situ Jun said that he can bend and stretch a man.

Regarding Wufeng's request to return to Kansai, Situ Lang and Situ Yuan hesitated for a long time. They previously asked to stay on the grounds that the situation in the imperial capital was not yet stable, and later they held off on the excuse that they needed to discuss with Wufeng about Situ Tai's offensive in the East China Sea. Wufeng will not let go, but these are hard to hold Wufeng's mind to go west, just think about Wufeng is now the military and political governor of Kansai, but he has not yet taken office in the capital of his territory, and Situ Biao and Situ Jun have already lost However, Situ Lang and Situ Yuan really couldn't think of a better way to keep Wufeng, especially after Wufeng claimed that he needed to return to Kansai to make military adjustments to the Northwest Army and ease the pressure on the imperial capital for the next step eastward to Qinghe. In the end, I had to accept the reality that this tiger was going back to the mountain again.

It's just that the Kamans have continued to increase their troops in Qinghe, and Cangzhou Fucheng has become an isolated city. Although the Kamans did not surround Cangzhou Fucheng, they formed a siege situation from the west and north of Cangzhou Fucheng, leaving the southeast The two roads are clearly intended to force the two divisions of the Second Army to withdraw from Cangzhou on their own. And Luyang, which is next to Cangzhou, has become the headquarters of the Second Army. In addition to the other three divisions, there is also an independent division stationed here. The role of backing, in the eyes of Situ Lang and Situ Yuan, has a deeper meaning, that is, Cangzhou can be abandoned at any time so that the imperial capital can directly face the spearheads of the Kamanians from the northwest and north, and the Second Army can even Attack to the southeast in one go, take down Pengcheng Mansion in one go, and turn Jinling into an isolated island in Donghai County.

Faced with this situation, Situ Yuan was the one who was most worried. Once Situ Tai gave up Cangzhou, he would probably have an army to approach Pengcheng. However, his garrison in Pengcheng was only three divisions, and his strength was far inferior to his own. Big brother's battle-hardened army can't resist the opponent's attack at all. Fortunately, big brother is still hesitating and has never made up his mind to give up Cangzhou. Once he really makes up his mind to throw away Cangzhou, the danger of Pengcheng will be doubled Increase. But now Situ Yuan didn't have many troops to deal with it. Due to its special status, the Jinling Mansion had to send a legion, which seemed to have a lot of troops, but judging from the several small-scale confrontations between Situ Tai's army, Situ Jun found that the fighting power of his army was far from being comparable to that of his elder brother's army , confronted seven times, none of which was able to gain the upper hand, and there were two disastrous defeats that cost tens of thousands of people. This made Situ Yuan completely lose the confidence to fight head-on with his brother. He dispatched troops to support him, but facing the pressure from the Kamanians, Situ Lang was unwilling to dispatch a single soldier to the east, unless the pressure from Qinghe Mansion could be relieved, so it was a helpless move to send Wufeng back to the west.

Appreciating the majesty and simplicity of the Damiao Square, Wufeng stepped into the Daleiyin Temple, where the religious architectural wonders from the Buddhism in the mainland have been fully displayed, with continuous temples, majestic towers and pagodas, and the solemn tower forest. The deep ancient Berlin, whether it was the period of the Taiping Army's control or the short-term takeover of the Lin family, could not stop the faithful men and women from all over the empire and even the Eastern Continent to come and pay homage. The long ancient rhyme of the wall makes Wufeng indulge in the reminiscence of this architectural complex with a history of thousands of years. The ups and downs of the previous year did not seem to have left much vicissitudes in this place where gods and Buddhas communicated with mortals. The rulers of any dynasty paid enough attention to this place, but today it is my turn.

"Chongxin, you said that the kings of all dynasties have visited here, and seeing these buildings that have witnessed the rise and collapse of dynasties, what would they think?" In the slate path, Wufeng suddenly asked about the middle-aged man in casual clothes who had been following behind him~IndoMTL.com~ Facing the sudden question from the coach, the middle-aged man was obviously unprepared, and had been thinking about what to do if Master Jiedushi asked him How should he respond to the battle in Kansai? He never thought that the coach would suddenly ask such a seemingly distant question.

"Well, maybe they will feel that they are just passers-by in the long river of history. No matter who they are, they will be eliminated as the long river of history rushes forward. No one can escape this natural law and realize Let's see how small and short life is." Liang Chongxin, who was born in a family, said casually, but it fit Wufeng's state of mind at this time, he nodded in satisfaction, and turned his eyes to a vast forest of steles.

"Look, that's the forest of steles. The "Shitai Xiaojing" and "Kaicheng Stone Scripture" are there, as well as the stele of Guangzhi Tripitaka. Whether the West will damage these things, it seems that I am too worried." Wu Feng looked a little confused, "Has the Taiping Sect really finished its history, Linghu?"

When the young man who was walking with Liang Chongxin heard his name being called by the coach, he immediately replied: "According to the information,..."

Before the words fell, Wufeng laughed and scolded: "I want you to express your opinion, not to analyze based on intelligence. Today is not a formal discussion of military affairs and government affairs. I just let you two accompany me to relax and chat. That's all."

"Uh, this," the young man is naturally Linghu Yi, the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he scratched his head in embarrassment, and thought for a while before saying: "From my personal point of view, this issue should have come to an end." It's over, although there are still many capable people among them."
