Chapter 546 Yuan's Trading Company has strong capital, and the furious Yuan Shu!
At the meeting of the princes, the words of the deputy leader Yuan Shao made all the princes present feel pain and pressure. They looked up at the leader Yuan Shu with sad faces, hoping that Yuan Shu could come up with some solutions, otherwise they would continue to attack the tigers with no consequences.
Lao Pass, Hulao Pass was not conquered at that time, but their millions-strong coalition army was about to lose hundreds of thousands of people here!
If hundreds of thousands of them were killed outside Hulao Pass, how could we talk about helping the Han Dynasty and rescuing the young emperor?
Hearing the words of the princes present, Yuan Shu, the leader of the alliance, became gloomy and uncertain. He had already had a clever plan on how to conquer Hulao Pass, but there were too many people at the moment, and he was afraid that the news would leak out and let Hulao Pass pass.
The thief was on guard.
"Everyone, Hulao Pass has been unable to be conquered for a long time. As the leader of the alliance, I am even more distressed than you are. These good men are willing to sacrifice their lives to help the Han Dynasty. Their hearts are made of flesh. I eat and drink with them and have a close relationship.
Now that everyone's souls have returned to Jiuquan, how can the highway not feel sad? It's just that the time has not yet come to break through the pass. We still need everyone to work together and hold on for a while. When the enemy forces relax their vigilance, it will be the time for the coalition forces to conquer Hulao Pass!"
Listening to the sworn speech of the alliance leader Yuan Shu, the deputy alliance leader Yuan Shao snorted coldly and sat back in his seat. Cao Cao, Tao Qian, Han Fu and other princes looked up at Yuan Shu with slightly complicated eyes, and then sighed and said no more.
speak.
Seeing that all the princes present here acquiesced to his decision, Yuan Shu, as the leader of the alliance, was in a good mood. He banged the table in front of him, then led a group of princes to the front line and issued the order to withdraw troops. Since he could not conquer Hulao Pass for a while,
, there is no point in increasing casualties. It is better to withdraw the troops temporarily, wait for the enemy's reinforcements to arrive, and then send troops to attract their attention, creating opportunities for Tu Xingsun and Fire Spirit Madonna in the pass to dig tunnels.
The leader of the alliance, Yuan Shu, and a group of princes rushed to the front line. Looking at the piles of corpses of soldiers under Hulao Pass, as well as countless broken limbs, the eyes of everyone present were moist and red. War has been extremely cruel since ancient times, but like the current situation,
Very few people have seen this purgatory-like scene!
"These sacrificed sons and sons are all heroes of our Han Dynasty. They left their hometowns, bid farewell to their parents, wives and children, went to the front line, and dedicated their lives to this. I, Yuan Gongli, am willing to fund all the aftermath work at my own expense, and pay double compensation on the original basis.
Double the pension to appease the spirits of the heroes and martyrs in heaven."
Yuan Shu dared to say this, and he naturally had strong capital support behind him. Since the coalition forces gathered in Sili to attack the Dong thieves, they have suffered casualties of nearly 80,000 soldiers. You must know that this is just outside Hulao Pass and has not yet been conquered.
At this level, nearly one-tenth of the number of people has been lost. If double pensions are issued, it will be an astronomical sum. However, for many years of doing business, capital has radiated throughout the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, and even opened trade to
For Yuan's trading houses in the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, Qiang, Southern Barbarians, Baiyue and other places, it is not the same thing at all.
At most, liquidity will be in embarrassment for a period of time, but relatively speaking, this will be an excellent opportunity for Yuan Shu to build momentum. If the millions of soldiers in the coalition army know that double pensions will be paid after their sacrifices, they will definitely be happy.
Yuan Shu was grateful and publicized the matter. In this way, Yuan Shu's forces would gain a large number of people's support in the future, whether recruiting troops or launching wars!
"I admire the fact that I love my soldiers as much as my sons. As for the soldiers' post-war pensions and other miscellaneous expenses, I will leave it to you, the leader of the alliance, and we will not be involved."
Seeing that Cao Mengde beside him was hesitant to speak, Yuan Shao, as the deputy leader of the alliance, quickly grabbed the conversation box and on behalf of all the princes present, he passed the whole matter of pensions to Yuan Shu on behalf of all the princes present.
As the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shu glanced at Yuan Shao, and then sighed helplessly. He is also a descendant of the Yuan family. Why does this brother's brain move so slowly? Looking at Cao Cao's thoughtful look, he is afraid that he has insight.
I understand my own thoughts, but what if I understand them?
Yanzhou is in the midst of a war-torn period. The two rebels Tian Hu and Chen Youliang have been fighting for years, which has seriously affected the farming and business of the people under the rule. In addition, the taxes are not increased. Cao Cao's pocket is cleaner than his face, even if he understands
Yuan Shu's idea is that he doesn't have the ability to come up with such a large amount of funds. Even if he is asked to spend a normal pension, he won't be able to come up with it for a while!
"It is well known that I, Yuan Gongli, love his soldiers as much as his sons. This time the allied forces attack the Dong thieves, the pensions of the casualties will be borne by one party. I hope that all of you present can work together and work together to conquer the tiger as soon as possible.
Laoguan, rush into Luoyang, and welcome back the emperor!"
After Yuan Shu, the leader of the alliance, finished his passionate speech, he raised his arms and shouted, announcing that he would withdraw his troops at the cost of gold.
As the loud horns and war drums sounded, the soldiers who were fighting desperately breathed a sigh of relief. The enemy soldiers who were struggling to defend the city on the wall of Hulao Pass also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. The soldiers from both sides let go with a tacit understanding.
With the weapon in his hand, he consciously retreated and entered a resting state.
At this time, after seeing the message that the coalition forces Ming Jin had withdrawn their troops, the high-ranking generals Han Shui and Wu Wenhua who were guarding the wall of Hulao Pass supported each other and came to the top of the wall, and then looked in the direction of the coalition leader Yuan Shu and shouted loudly.
Laughed, then roared to the sky, and taunted wantonly with a voice as loud as thunder: "The coalition forces are all cowardless people, one general is incompetent, and the three armies are exhausted. I think it is better to drag this stupid donkey Yuan Shu out of his position as leader of the alliance as soon as possible, hahahaha
!”
The taunts of Han Shui and Wu Wenhua resounded throughout the battlefield. Listening to their stupid speeches, everyone present was so frightened that they did not dare to say a word. Whether they were soldiers from the enemy camp or soldiers from the allied camp, they all reacted in unison at this time.
He tilted his head towards the direction of the alliance leader Yuan Shu, wanting to see how the leader Yuan Shu would react after hearing these taunting words.
"The world is so big, how many people look down on me, Yuan Jiujiu? For example, the three brothers Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang of the Yellow Turban Army, Fang La of the Southern Kingdom, the rats of Wagang Village, Hong Xiuquan, Guo Wei and others who rebelled against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom
, how arrogant they were back then, and what fate they have fallen into now, you should know better than me!
Han Chu, Wu Wenhua, since you dare to be so arrogant, you must bear the anger of someone. Don't kneel down on your knees, beg for mercy, crawl under your feet, and beg me to spare your life. If this is really the case.
, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to our current prestige? I just like your unruly look.”
Alliance leader Yuan Shu lowered his head, exuding overwhelming murderous intent, and his deep eyes were full of angry flames. Just wait for Tu Xingsun and Fire Spirit Madonna to open the tunnel, and that's when these thieves will be beheaded in embarrassment!
