Chapter 861 Canal Paralysis

Zhou Hui said angrily: "Zhu Xieyuan, this old bastard, is over 70 years old this year, but his spirit is better than that of a young man. According to my spy, this person can eat five bowls of rice and a pound of meat every day, and his appetite is better than that of a young man."

Liu Bu pondered and said, "Is this a normal thing for a seventy-year-old man with such a good appetite and such a good teeth?"

Zhou Hui said: "Of course it's not normal. This should be a rebirth, right?"

Liu Bu believed it, was very interested, and said, "Are you sure?"

Zhou Hui's face turned red and he had to say, "I'm wrong about my words, but I'm just a speculation."

Liu Bu said: "Zhu Xieyuan is a ruthless man. Since he has hurt us so much, can't the National Security Bureau think of some solutions? It's better to die a few people than to die tens of thousands of people."

Zhou Hui said: "Since the Battle of Yiling, the National Security Bureau has sent assassins and dead soldiers to assassinate, but they have always returned without success."

Liu Bu said: "What a powerful character. I didn't expect that Zhu Ming was so corrupt that he had such a loyal man to be loyal to him."

Zhou Hui said: "It's just stupid and loyal, but in the end he won't have any good ending."

Liu Bu said: "One day, I would have such loyal ministers in China."

Zhou Hui said: "We are still thinking of ways to deal with Zhu Xieyuan, and we have not given up our efforts in this regard."

Liu Bu said, "Do your best? This is not a glorious method after all. You can do it if you can, and you won't force it. After all, the best way is to defeat the enemy on the battlefield."

In fact, Liu Bu was just talking big. He knew that if he assassinated Hong Chengchou or Yang Sichang, their army would not be in chaos. But if Zhu Xieyuan was assassinated, once Zhu Xieyuan died, he would be afraid that this army would be destroyed.

This was almost a unit pulled up with Zhu Xieyuan's personal charm, which was equivalent to Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army. Once Lu Xiangsheng died, Tianxiong Army would no longer be there.

That's why Liu Bu had a few people who died, which was better than the fact that tens of thousands of people died.

The Chinese army also formulated plans to launch an attack on Henan from Shandong and northern Hubei.

This is mainly about prevention and targeting Zhu Xieyuan. After this plan, I guess I don’t know how many people will die or how much money and food will be wasted?

Henan has become a tough bone because of Zhu Xieyuan's existence, which Liu Bu and others would never have expected.

When they were conquering many places in the Ming Dynasty, they were in chaos and made a decision. However, they did not dare to have such ideas when they attacked Zhu Xieyuan's guarding, but they were afraid that they would fight fiercely.

So in order to deal with this capable man, Liu Bu sent his most powerful general Xiao Ning to send troops to Yanzhou Prefecture to prepare for the war in Henan.

At the same time, they ordered Li Dingguo to launch an attack from Xiangyang when they were ready to constrain Zhu Xieyuan's army.

For more than ten days, Liu Bu has been working with the Ministry of National Defense to improve the plan for the Battle of Shandong and dispatch more troops to the front line.

The Chinese army has the biggest difference between the Ming army. The Chinese army relies heavily on logistics and weapons such as artillery and firearms, which means that their army will be mobilized, and the time may be slower than that of the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, their mobilization system and military qualities are better than those of the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming army had to transport so much material, it might take several months to deploy.

However, even if the Chinese army had such rapid ability, it was quite difficult for them to deploy, because they all found that they habitually relied on the canal to transport and deploy materials through the canal.

Now the canal canal has begun to slacken all kinds of work, and it has not worked hard. There are several sections of the canal that have broken the dam for no reason.

The Grand Canal is the lifeblood of the Ming Dynasty, and the river water is its key. The Ming Dynasty has clear regulations. During the dry season, the people on both sides of the river are not allowed to use the water in the river to irrigate the land. Even if the crops on the land die of drought, they are not allowed. If anyone dares to commit the crime, they will either be fined or beaten by officials.

There are special canals on the river bank. The dikes are responsible for patrolling, and there are few leaks in the dikes.

It is normal if the Yellow River has a dam, but it is profitable. Countless people rely on him to eat, and they have to eat with it. There are people patrolling every area. Once the dam is missing, someone will immediately find that it has broken the dam on a large scale and no one has discovered it. This shows the problem, and there must be ghosts among them.

Zhou Hui came today and was also reporting this issue. He said: "There is enough reason to believe that the people of the Cao Gang have colluded with Xu Jianqiang. My Chinese army's way of relying on the canal and quickly transporting materials will be failed."

When Liu Bu heard the news, he couldn't help but feel angry. He said, "A guy who doesn't know how to live or die."

Zhou Hui said: "These people are very dark. They don't do it themselves. They are worried that we have enough ships, so they dig up the river embankment in more than a dozen sections of the river, causing the water in the canal to be lost, so that the goal of paralyzing our army can be achieved."

Liu Bu said: "These people actually turned to Zhu Ming at this time. What benefits did Xu Jianqiang promise them?"

Zhou Hui said: "Bei Zhi is inquiring about this matter with all his strength. It is probably to hand over the canal operation rights to them. Otherwise, it would not have touched this group of people, and their appetite would be quite good."

Liu Bu said: "A group of greedy guys, we just use this to kill the donkey."

They all knew the relationship between Cao Gang and Xu Jianqiang. If such a big thing happened, they would not hear any news, which means that their National Security Bureau was in vain and had a good time.

Although the National Security Bureau has many similarities with the Jinyiwei, they are definitely not just corpses. It is impossible for you to live in the National Security Bureau. Their big bosses in the Cao Gang also have ambushing stakes around them, and the status of these hidden stakes is not low. Knowing their decisions, it is because of this that they understand their actions. In fact, this behavior of the Cao Gang solved a problem for the Chinese army.

The Chinese army originally planned to change the canal and sea transportation because they knew that the canal wasted too much money and grain, with too much loss and too much investment. Sea transportation is the key to the future. Only sea transportation can save a lot of money and grain.

This also means that a million-level layoffs have caused so many people to lose their jobs. It would be strange if they don’t rebel? The turmoil in their canal was also a sensation and caused huge chaos. For details, please refer to the court’s layoffs.

A station was cut off, and even so, not to mention the canal where so many people relied on it to eat, so we needed a suitable entry point.

The Braid Empire in later generations was so powerful that even though they knew that there were many water and tricks in the canal, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and eventually drag it down. It was probably not possible that without the invasion of the British and French forces, even if the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, the canal was still in operation.

Since these people want to make trouble, let him make trouble and just eliminate this cancer. Although eliminating this cancer will cause them great trouble at the beginning, it will eventually eradicate a cancer and will not let it explode again.

Liu Yuanqiao and Liu Bu are not the kind of people who leave their problems for their descendants. They believe that if even the founding emperors cannot do anything, the emperors will be even more unable to do it, and will only cause them to bear the burden and eventually lead to collapse.

Moreover, the collusion between the Cao Gang and the court just happened to meet their combat plan, so they simply took the initiative to take the opportunity to kill the donkey.

The Cao Gang members were making trouble everywhere and causing trouble everywhere, which had a huge impact in Shandong and Jianghuai areas. The local area was already in chaos. The Chinese army could no longer transport supplies through the canal. This made the governments and officials in various places anxious. On the one hand, they mobilized manpower and material resources to suppress the situation, but on the other hand, they flew to Nanjing like snowflakes, begging the court to send troops to support, otherwise the situation would be out of control.

Facing the chaotic canal line in the local area, Liu Buyan only describes it for a few words, that is: a mob.

These people are really not people who have succeeded. After colluding with the court, they will immediately cause trouble and do not choose the opportunity at all.

Liu Bu was thinking, if it were me, it would be best if the Chinese army and the imperial army suddenly made a decisive battle, and then stabbed the knife in the back. This would cause a greater impact and cause greater chaos.

But these people are good. Once they have power, they will take orders. They really think that the Chinese army will not be able to do without them?

Liu Bu and his son had nothing to hesitate about the unrest of these people. They immediately dispatched their elite troops to enter the major hubs of the Grand Canal and began to control these places. If there are people from the Cao Gang who dare to resist and act as hostile, they will be killed without any hesitation.

The Cao Gang caused trouble this time because he got the emperor's order, with a backer and a backer, so they were not afraid. If the official army dared to take over forcibly, they would dare to take up swords and guns and fight with the Chinese army.

They believed that they were now serving the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the court. As long as the battle started here, the imperial army would kill the generals and kill the Chinese army. Then they could control the front line of the canal and control the richest canal in the Ming Dynasty, and become the richest group of people in the Ming Dynasty.

For a moment, wars rose everywhere on both sides of the canal, and battles and fighting were everywhere.
