There are a total of eight grain stores in Mizhou, six of which belong to the Pan family! Wu Yong is interested in four of these six grain stores! In addition to the grain stored in the Pan family's mansion and the grain stored in several warehouses...these local grain stores
The total stored grain is enough to sustain Song Wen's Mizhou Xiang army with 500 men until next year! Even if Song Wen takes back the more than 700 elite Xiang troops who were taken away, it will be enough to last until autumn.
At most, within a month, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce in Dengzhou and the Central Plains will be able to continuously transport food back. In that case, the confidence of the Mizhou Xiang Army will be stabilized. Even if Wang Zhizhou and Shuai Si have other ideas, the Mizhou Xiang Army will not
Someone will pinch your neck.
Two Xiang soldiers rushed towards the corner of the street... Wu Yong just saw the person coming clearly, when he saw two Xiang soldiers clasping their fists at Wu Yong and saying: "Master Chief Secretary, just now our people went to accept food from a Pan's Grain Store.
At that time, we had a conflict with two officials from Mizhou... The leaders seemed to be Superintendent Li of the Tax Supervision Bureau and a soldier from the Zhizhou Prefecture! They asked our people to withdraw, and said that all the property of the Pan family in Mizhou belonged to Mizhou.
The state capital has sealed it, and the Xiang army is not allowed to get involved!"
Wu Yong sneered: "What a loud tone. Wang Yuan and Wang Zhizhou are not greedy enough and want to try our method to control the master? Where is Da Lang?"
Wu Dalang and Wu Rong, who had been loyally following Wu Yong and protecting him, raised their hands and replied: "The villain is here!"
"Wu Dutou, please raise the Fifty Wings Army and follow me to see who is so confident and so domineering?"
At this moment, a war horse galloped over. The scout on the horse raised his hand and said to Wu Yong: "Master Wu, Mr. Qianha has returned to the city!"
Wu Yong nodded: "Okay! Don't let Mr. Qian Hao down, let's go and snatch that food store back... it can be considered a credit!"
The fifty Mizhou Xiangjun roared, as if these people had never been so excited since the existence of the Mizhouxiang Army... My Lord Qiao is so powerful! One of his chief clerks actually dared not to put the state capital in the army.
In eyes!
After a day of commotion, the officials of the state government did not dare to provoke the Xiang army anymore, because the dozens of yamen officers who were brought back with broken bones and tendons and kept wailing showed that Song Wen was not someone to be trifled with.
The food was transported back to the military camp by the Xiang army in a big way, but Song Wen came back and started to assemble all the Xiang soldiers.
Song Wen couldn't wait any longer. He didn't want two Yuhou with ulterior motives to wander around outside the city with the 800 Mizhou Xiang troops. The seven guard posts also needed to be reorganized quickly. The land occupied by the Pan family and Mizhou officials was the Song Dynasty.
What Wen hopes for most.
Now the prestige of the Song Dynasty court has been extremely low, and its control over local areas is even more hypocritical. There are numerous uprisings and bandits, and the northwest region is indifferent to the court. Southern Xinjiang is also in a state of indifference.
A state of confusion.
The heartland of Jiangnan has just experienced a catastrophe, and the imperial army in the Central Plains has long been corrupted and reduced in combat effectiveness... Corrupt officials are rampant in the center of the imperial court. At this time, Zhao Ji chose to fight a national war for his own vanity! He is not a fool.
yes?
As soon as the war started, the Central Plains had already entered a countdown to destruction. The most precious thing at this time was time... Song Wen had no time to quarrel with these dog officials.
That night, Wang Zhizhou actually sent people to work for the army! More than a dozen carts of wine, meat and food were pulled. Wu Yong made a preliminary estimate. This time, Song Wen was used to uproot the Pan family, Guangmi City's business shops and various warehouses...
…Wang Zhizhou captured at least 60% of the Pan family’s wealth!
Unexpectedly, Song Wen refused Wang Zhizhou's summons unceremoniously. He sat on a chair in military uniform and pressed his sword on his waist to tell the embarrassed soldier... The Mizhou Xiang army had begun to prepare for war. The two
Marquis Yu, who has no clear collusion with the Pan family, must be brought back to Mizhou immediately for interrogation! The Eight Hundred Xiang Army must not be left wandering without trace...
Song Wen had already sent someone to report back to Jingdong East Road Shuaisi and Sanya. Naturally, Wang Zhizhou also reported information about Pan's rebellion in Mizhou and the robbery of Cao Jian's life in Yurou Township in previous years. In order to unify the narrative, he could only report Song Wen's information.
The Xiang army's suppression was said to be in response to the order of King Yuan, the governor of the state, to maintain public order and suppress the rebellious powerful forces!
Even if the Pan family has background, no one dares to openly question what Wang Yuan and Song Wen are doing. Song Wen has Gao Qiu as his backer and will not be afraid of Li Yan for the time being... How dare Wang Yuan compete? A row of people roared.
That night the car quietly drove out of Mizhou City and headed straight for Bianliang.
Wang Yuan packed up almost half of the gold, silver, silk and satin treasures he had collected in the past two days and sent them to the capital. Most of them were used to appease and win over the eunuch Li Yan, and the rest were given to Liang Shicheng and Cai You... The current Wang Yuan
Yuan Yixin wants to find a new backer to stabilize his official position. Whoever nods will be his new master!
For Song Wen's rude behavior, Wang Yuan could only accept it with humiliation. He also completed the official procedures and tokens for Song Wen to send troops. The commander-in-chief also sent someone to inform them that he had sent Song Wen to appease and control the rest of the Xiang army.
The intention... At least now Wang Yuan and Song Wen are still standing in the same trench. Once the remaining Xiang troops and the remnants of the Pan family cause trouble, it is not uncommon for these people to collude with some bandits and pirates to attack the state capital! Wang Yuan dare not
Take the risk.
Early on the next morning, the North Camp became lively before dawn. A group of cavalry escorted dozens of carts openly entered the military camp at midnight last night. The Mizhou Xiang Army had regained a lot of energy after eating and drinking these days.
I was surprised to find that my young ruler had summoned so many elite troops!
Mizhou's quota of soldiers and horses was 3,000. Originally, there were only less than 2,000 people who were deprived of pay. After excluding the 800 elites, there were only 500 to 600 thornheads and the old, weak, sick and disabled. Song Wen himself had brought 200 Qingshan.
The camp's confidants and less than a hundred Liangshan men, combined together, could barely make up 300 people. Now that they have gathered many of the army's assassins and Mizhou Xiang troops who can still fight, they only have 500 people.
As a result, more than a hundred cavalry were recruited, plus the original nearly a hundred knights... Now that Song Wen was fully armed, he actually gathered nearly 700 people in just ten or twenty days.
!
Although they were all recruited under the pretext of filling up the vacancies in the Xiang army, Wang Yuan and Wang Zhizhou completely understood that Pan Yu was not so much a local tycoon, but Pan Yu was a scum compared to Song Wen!
Pan Yu had Li Yan as his backer, but Li Yan didn't look down on the rich country man in this frontier place at all, but Song Wen was a real confidant of Captain Gao... Pan Yu had hundreds of thugs who were guarding the courtyard across Mizhou, Song Wen
Wen was able to summon hundreds of cavalry and elite troops to suppress the Pan family in half a day.
What is a powerful person? This is the truly terrifying powerful person... Pan Yu became a powerful person to make money and then train his children to grow his family.
This Song Wen is a loner. He is rich and powerful and relies on money to pave the way to support his troops. However, he does not want to join the Forbidden Army and follow the path of a military attaché... Could it be that he plans to become a civil servant and has lofty ideals? Or...
The more Wang Yuan thought about it, the more confused he became, and the more unsure he became! Pan Yu was actually a person who had no courage to rebel, so how could Song Wen be a truly ambitious person?
Wang Yuan, who made up his mind to stay away from Song Wen and leave Mizhou as soon as possible. Wang Zhizhou met Song Wen.
