Hong Ziyi assists military funds, Taishi Ci leads his army to invest

When Sun Ce's 12th Battalion soldiers were invaded, Hongzi, the commander of the northern Wu County, took the initiative to find Sun Ce.

After all, when the main force of the army left, he was fully responsible for the stability and Pingning in the north of the county.

The seven places of Dantu, Qu'a, Piling, Yangxian, Wuxi, Wuxian and Louxian in the northern part of Wujun are the most important foundations of Sun Ce.

With Qu'a and Wuxian as the core, Sun Ce's internal political management has begun to gradually produce results in this area.

Moreover, because Sun Ce's army attacked all the way, Liu Yao's troops in this area have been cleared out. This area is relatively safe and peaceful, and the government is harmonious.

Whether the stability of these seven counties can be maintained directly depends on whether the new policy established by Sun Ce can be implemented smoothly.

Hongzi knew very well that he was promoted by Sun Lang with too little experience and had been criticized by others. Many people even questioned whether his loyalty was enough to hold such a high position.

Hongzi didn't care what others thought about it. He always remembered the scene when he first met. He said he had been willing to help the troubled times for a long time, but he only regretted not meeting a hero. The surprises in Sun Lang's eyes were like-minded.

Guan Yiwu was promoted to the scholars, Sun Shuao was promoted to the sea, and Baili Xi was promoted to the market.

Sun Lang also directly raised himself at the time of the city being destroyed, waiting for the national sage. He was in a similar mood when he first saw his life, and helped the troubled times with great ambitions and integrity.

With such courtesy, Hongzi has been waiting for an opportunity to help Sun Lang's heroic talent, and proves his loyalty to everyone with absolutely convincing means. No one in this county can ever interfere with Sun Lang's appointment.

And today's situation is the opportunity he has been waiting for!

When he saw Sun Ce, Hongzi bowed directly and said, "General, it is related to the stability of Wujun. Please come in if you have any words."

Although the army was about to set out, Zhang Hong was dispatched in the army and generals and commanders of each battalion, Sun Ce was not bad for his subordinates to make suggestions.

He nodded and said to Hongzi: "Changlin just says nothing."

Hongzi said solemnly: "Whether the seven counties in the north and the county are stable depends on whether the war in the south and the county is smooth. Wang Sheng, Zou Ta and others rose up and joined the clans, and they were just a group of villains. With the general Shenwu talent, the army will be able to fight against him. The only thing they are worried about is that they are trapped in the time. If they are anxious and rash, they will become unstable."

"I hope to provide 20,000 stones of food and grass to help military funds, which is enough to support the soldiers of the 12th Battalion to fight calmly without any worries about lack of supplies."

A glimmer of light flashed in Sun Ce's eyes. Hongzhi's funding can be said to have solved his urgent needs!

His command was a powerful general, and it was no problem to defeat a group of powerful rebellions.

The only thing that concerns is insufficient food and grass.

If there is sufficient supply of food and grass and the army advances calmly, it will be a sure victory!

He had not thought about seeking cooperation with powerful men before.

But the wealth level of these powerful men in Wu County could not afford the cost of tens of thousands of troops.

The Zhu Huan and Zhang Yun clans are already the richest families among them. It is the ultimate goal to be able to support more than a thousand tribes with righteousness and wealth. In addition to them, the remaining poor families such as Gu and Lu are already in a downfall, and it is extremely difficult to even support their own tribes. Many poor children are in trouble when they are young.

Not to mention affecting the government, they even need to live together and work together.

As for asking them to support the military, it was like Cao Cao asking Guo Jia to pay a lot of supplies to help him solve the problem of insufficient food and grass.

Therefore, Sun Ce always felt that a force, only a knife, cannot be taxed, even tens of thousands of them would not be able to do so. Unless a large-scale indiscriminate massacre, like the Xiliang Army, has no legacy left.

But this kind of thing can obviously only create troubled times and cannot end troubled times.

A truly powerful force must have a complete system, be able to count wealth under the rule fairly and clearly, and collect taxes reasonably and legally from the other party.

So to Hongzi's words, Sun Ce solemnly said: "Changlin is righteous and generous to solve my urgent needs. But I hope that Changlin will accept the treasury to pay 600,000 yuan as the transaction capital, leading Qu Ahaoqiang and trading with the government."

Hongzi nodded slightly. As a scholar's son, he knew very well the allusion of Zigong redeeming people and Zilu receiving cows.

If he donates 20,000 s of grain to the government but does not take out the money, other powerful people will find it difficult to take out the grain in the future. Donate it to the government for nothing, and they are reluctant to let it go. But if they want to sell it to the government, with Hongzi's example, will they collect money?

Sun Ce smiled and stroked Hongzi's back, saying, "The Hong family is a large family in Yangzhou, famous in Yangzhou County, and is well-known in all counties. With Changlin's strong help, what I hope is that the tyrants of each county will take Hong family as an example to trade with the government. Today's affairs, I should share with Changlin. For me, Changlin is the help of great cause, not the meaning of Mi Zhu and Liu Bei's only funding."

Upon hearing this, Hongzi was excited again. With Sun Lang's value, how could he not serve him to die with all his heart? This is the hero who can help each other! It is a monarch who can make everyone excited and fight with great spirit.

Even when he left, he held his head and chest out, intending to lead his subordinates to inspect the northern counties as the governor of Sun Lang and win over the heroes of each county.

After communicating with Sun Lang for a moment, he had a clear plan for how to stabilize the seven northern counties.

The most important point of whether these seven counties are stable is whether the great families of each county and whether the Haoyou support Sun Lang. As long as the powerful do not initiate a rebellion, the troops will be stable in the fields, and the county will be more peaceful than the rivers and seas.

To achieve this, the most convenient way is undoubtedly to promote transactions between the powerful and the government of various counties.

As long as there is a trading friendship and the powerful can benefit, they must consider whether their interests will be damaged before they rise up. Also, trading their food without food in their hands is lower the possibility of rebellion. At least until the autumn harvest is obtained, the more frequent such transactions are, the less likely they will be to rebel.

What he has to do is to let the powerful people see the situation clearly. After the autumn harvest, they will inevitably harvest a lot of food. At this time, trading out the old grain is the time to make the most profit.

This requires the use of their Hong family's most prominent prestige in Yangzhou. Using their Hong family's reputation to guarantee everyone, this transaction will definitely benefit the best.

Hongzi's plan is the biggest difference between Sun Ce and Liu Bei.

They also have the support of the top major families in the state. The Mi family and Chen family all support Liu Bei, but Liu Bei still finds it difficult to win over the support of the local gentry and powerful people in Xuzhou.

However, Sun Ce and Hongzi were confident that they would win over the powerful people in the northern part of Wu County. The most important reason was that Sun Ce did not regard anyone as a wealthy businessman or a hero who only had a similar loyalty and donated military funds, but could really bring them all to profit.

Under the implementation of the new policy, most people believe that when the autumn harvest is over, they will gain wealth far better than the past.

As for those stubborn people who cannot see the current situation clearly, there is no doubt that they will face Sun Lang's fierce blade!

This is like a concrete soul, which can remove rotten meat and eliminate poison, so that it can recover stronger and healthier.

Sun Ce's tens of thousands of troops set off the camp from Wuxian County, and went straight south and marched southwest along Songjiang to Wucheng County. The first goal was to clear the rebellion of the Sun family's fiefdom in the south of Taihu Lake.

But as soon as Sun Ce's central army set off and left the county, Chen Wu rode his horse to Sun Ce to report: "General, more than 2,000 people are raising their flags and heading towards us."

Sun Ce was surprised that there was still a unit of more than 2,000 in Wujun?

Who can join together so many soldiers, and be open and honest, without any concealment?

Sun Ce decisively took the iron cavalry of his personal guards and left the queue, saying to Chen Wu: "Let's go, come with me and find out."

Dozens of iron cavalry are scattered, and they are not something that ordinary people can stop them. So Sun Ce directly took the iron cavalry to approach the enemy's flags dozens of steps to explore the military situation.

All of Sun Ce's armored dragon and bird cavalry were brave and brave in the army. The soldiers were all over seven feet and seven inches tall. The horses were also carefully selected heroic war horses. The men and horses were all covered with heavy armor and the armor was shining on the sun.

Dozens of such tall and mighty knights approached, and even though there were more than 2,000 people on the other side, they couldn't help but have a riot.

As the disciples were crowded with people, a corridor was made in the middle of the crowd. A tall hero with a floating beard walked to the front of the formation, bowed to Sun Ce with a smile, and spoke heroically.

"Sun Lang, do you still remember what he said that day? Ci has led his people to help Sun Lang achieve unparalleled achievements and save the troubled times in the east of the Yangtze River."

Sun Ce was instantly overjoyed and laughed heartily. This hero with a fluttering beard was naturally the famous general Taishi Ci that Sun Ce valued the most!

This famous scholar in Qingzhou is indeed worthy of being in mind for righteousness and keeping trustworthy as heaven!

Sun Ce dismounted directly, held Taishi Ci's hand, and said, "I know that Ziyi has the ambition to save the world, who else can I bear? Why did you return slowly?"

Taishi Ci explained with a smile: "The state army was newly destroyed, and the soldiers were dispersed from Qu'a, and it was difficult to reunite. Since it fled to the mountains and fields, Ci has been gathering and gathering for the general. When he heard the rebellion in the south of the county, he led his troops to help the general to wipe out the rebellion and the rebellion of the rebels."

Sun Ce laughed and said, "With Ziyi helping me, why should I worry about the uncertainty of the world?"

This is Taishi Ci!

He was a hero of the times who was listed separately in the biographies of the princes at the end of the Han Dynasty. He was a talented man with the same specification as Lu Bu, Gongsun Zan and Liu Biao. At the lowest point, he was also a famous general who was comparable to Ma Chao.

Some people discuss the issue of which is stronger, the so-called Five Tiger Generals or Sun Ce.

Sun Ce was too lazy to even pay attention to this comparison, because this was not a comparison at the same level.

The so-called Five Tiger Generals, only Ma Chao once tried to become a prince in one place and participate in the battle for hegemony.

But the result is obvious, he was beaten and wandered around. From the overlord Cao Cao, to Zhang Lu, Hanzhong, and even to the heroes of Ji County, he could be defeated and expelled.

It would be pale to find any reason for him.

Because no matter how weak he was, he was not like Sun Ce, with only a thousand subordinates and dozens of horses, and there was no way to supply food and grass like Sun Ce.

But Sun Ce took this weak capital and sat down as the lord of the six counties in Jiangdong. Not to mention the heroes of a mere county, even the prefects of each county, Liu Yao, and Liu Biao, the governor of each county, were all defeated generals under his command, and Cao Cao could only sigh at him that this was true and it was difficult to compete with him.

The countless powerful people in Jiangdong are not inferior to a woman in Ji County. And so many prefects, is the provincial governor not as good as Zhang Lu?

Before comparing with Sun Ce, Lu Bu was probably able to defeat the Five Tiger Generals. After all, Lu Bu really defeated Guan Yu and Zhang Fei again and again. He himself defeated Zhang Fei in Xia Pi, and his generals Gao Shun and Zhang Liao defeated Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, He Xiahou Dun and others at one time.

When shooting the halberd at the gate, Lu Bu and his men were able to conquer Liu Bei with only more than a thousand infantry and cavalry, and Ji Ling's army suppressed both sides to comply with his mediation.

After Lu Bu's death, everyone was like Lu Bu. I'm afraid that Zhang Fei was most touched by Guan Yu, who had shot his halberd on the spot at the gate.

Although Taishici was defeated as a prince in the country, he was defeated by Sun Ce, which is absolutely not embarrassing.

Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong and others were all defeated by Li Shimin, and after their defeat and surrender, they all became famous generals in Zhenguan.

Taishi Ci will definitely be able to display his talents under Sun Ce's command. If Sun Ce also needed a good general to guard Jingzhou, he would never be in a situation like Liu Bei.

Taishi Ci can finally become a staggering general with Zhou Yu. No matter who they go to guard Jingzhou, they are enough to take on important tasks! No matter how they need to be appointed as a military advisor, their own talents are not inferior to Yang Hu.

Taishici gathered two thousand separated soldiers to join him, so Sun Ce naturally could not treat his righteous deeds unfairly.

Therefore, Sun Ce did not deprive him of the commandership of more than 2,000 people under his command, but appointed him as his subordinate and continued to command the more than 2,000 troops.

Sun Ce's absolute trustworthy behavior made Taishi Ci and his more than 2,000 people under him extremely excited and the morale of the army was very peaceful.

In order to repay Sun Lang's trustworthy righteousness, they were indignant and were in a high spirit of fighting.

After tens of thousands of troops arrived in Wucheng County, they actively divided their troops to fight and led the way. They even tried their best to invite Sun Ce to visit their camp to see the style of soldiers.

Sun Ce was so brave that he immediately accepted the enthusiastic invitation from the soldiers, and only brought more than ten Xuanjia personal guards into the Taishi Ci Camp. He delegated the command of the other four armies. Cheng Pu, Xu Kun, Wu Jing and Sun Ben all led more than 3,000 people to attack with all their strength.
