"I'll take it! Lao Cao still has a lot of vision and ideas..."
"Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao are two sisters with twin breasts and peerless beauty... As long as they are men, who can not be tempted? After seeing this, who wouldn't want to hold such beauty in his arms!?"
Liu Hao secretly cursed...
"Eh!? The general has always been known as a romantic. Could it be that he has taken a liking to my two nieces?"
Opposite me, Mrs. Qiao Zhu felt something move in her heart.
She is someone who has been here before, and she is also Xiao Qiao’s aunt...
Looking at Liu Hao at this time, he looked so kind and in a good mood, so he thought to himself: In a few years, these two girls, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, will be old enough. When they reach the age of marriage, if they marry Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao,
To the general, wouldn’t that be a blessing to my family, Qiao?
"Haha! The general is invincible. Thank you so much for saving my life!"
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qiao Zhu rolled her eyes, smiled like a flower, held Qiao Qian with one hand, and said angrily: "Xiao Qiao, why are you talking to the general? Why don't you salute and thank you properly!"
If Qiao Zhu hadn't thought that he was a little older, he would have almost gone out in person and recommended himself as a pillow, hoping to catch up with Liu Hao, who was at the height of his power!
Xiao Qiao stuck out her cute little lilac tongue and said charmingly: "Hehe, thank you General for saving me, but the General won't care about me!"
These two little luoli are really adorable. Liu Hao pinched his little face several times and it felt great...
Lu Wushuang felt affection in her heart, took their little hands, and started whispering.
Xu Sheng, the brave general on the side, walked over, clasped his fists and said: "Master, there are many kidnapped people behind. They have been counted and they are all there..."
He pointed in the direction of the group of people led out by the soldiers from the Huben camp, and said softly: "My lord, General Yi Mo, I saw that the Lujiang bandits these people encountered were a bit strange... They were actually wearing the official uniforms of the Han Dynasty.
, it looks like the officers and soldiers deliberately dressed up like robbers!"
"Yuan Shu, this guy is really a fool! He actually sent his men to pretend to be robbers to rob the road and steal money!"
Hearing Xu Sheng mention this, Liu Hao smiled coldly.
Military advisor Liu Bowen had long said that Yuan Shu was aggressive and violent, and his internal affairs and finances were on the verge of collapse. He didn't understand how he managed to survive until now...
Now, the truth is finally revealed.
Yuan Shu is the biggest robber under his rule!
With such an additional source of income, it is not impossible to barely maintain the situation...
While Liu Hao was deep in thought, suddenly a guard in golden robes walked through the crowd in front of him, came to Liu Hao and said: "My lord, Military Advisor Liu Bowen, there is an urgent handwritten letter sent to you!"
"oh!?"
Liu Hao took the beeswax-sealed silk book, waved his hand, and ordered: "Xu Wenxiang (Xu Sheng's cousin), escort the baggage first, and return to Shu County with the plundered people...
..!”
"Here!"
Xu Sheng responded loudly.
Liu Hao walked sideways, summoned the Jin Yiwei, and continued to order: "Go and send a message to Yuwen Chengdu. He broke through Liyang, not far from Hefei. After three days, the entire army will be assembled. As long as Xuyi and Zhang Liao can contain as many people as possible."
Shouchun's troops, Yuwen's troops from Chengdu and Lujiang, unite as one and directly launch a general attack on Hefei!"
Hefei is the most important strategic location in Jiujiang County.
After conquering Hefei, Shouchun was like a beautiful woman who took off her clothes in front of men!
Even if Yuan Shu had an army of more than 100,000, he would not be able to use his skills and would instead be trapped in Chou City!
"However, what happened in Jinling? Liu Bowen actually sent an urgent secret report..."
Liu Hao led his troops outside and received reports from Jinling almost every day.
This urgent secret report is a general term for the urgent matters at the moment. Only when the matter is urgent, will the summons be summoned suddenly!
"My lord, please give me your thanks! A locust plague broke out in the east of the Yangtze River, and the situation is critical. The situation in Jinling is like a bottomless mire. Now the internal government is vacant and the pressure is huge..."
The more Liu Hao looked at it, the more he frowned, and asked: "Isn't the money and food enough? Isn't Moutai Xianjiang still brewing and producing? Why isn't the money enough?"
"My Lord, Maotai Immortal Brewing, according to the secret method, has to be buried deep and brewed for a month before the wine can be ready... The last banquet has already consumed all the inner treasures..."
After listening to Zheng He's words, Liu Hao smiled bitterly and nodded.
If you are not a family member, you don’t know how valuable firewood, rice, oil and salt are.
Damn it, the money consumed by the operation of a power group is really a bottomless pit!
No wonder, in later generations of large group companies, one link in the capital chain was broken, causing the entire group to go bankrupt!
Liu Bowen's letter has already analyzed the situation very clearly.
First, this time he sent troops to fight Yuan Shu in the decisive battle in Huainan, using almost all of Liu Hao's available soldiers!
In order to raise the food and grass needed for the war, as well as the military pay to be paid after the war, Liu Hao's family fortune was almost emptied!
Second, the Zheng family, a wealthy shipbuilding family, has made great progress in the research and development of the Huanglong battleship. Ma Jun's generals are making countless ordnance and armor... Here, a lot of money is also spent!
The third and most serious problem is that Liu Yao was incompetent in governance and resorted to militarism. He emptied the money of Kuaiji, Yuzhang, Luling, Danyang and Wu counties, causing endless harm!
Now when there is a locust plague, the people have a hard time and can only eat dirt!
If there are careerists like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang fanning the flames, there will inevitably be turmoil!
Now Liu Hao is pushing across Jiangdong, but news like this comes, there is really a fire in the rear...
"Several counties are barely supported by high-intensity taxes... In this situation, they are almost too poor to open the pot, and they are building a woolen palace!? Even this locust plague cannot survive!
"
Liu Hao pinched his eyebrows and thought about it, but he still had no solution!
Money is not everything, but without money, there is no food, which is absolutely impossible! ..
