Jiaozhou, Zhuya Bay.
When Chen Zhi arrived at the shore on a hundred-zhang long, five-story boat, Cheng Wei Teng of Hepu County had already waited on the shore with a group of officials.
"We greet the Patrol General."
Chen Zhi was wearing a silver armor and looked at the people in front of him expressionlessly, "You are exempt." ” "General Chen has been tired of traveling and driving, I have prepared a thin wine at the official post, and I also ask the general to appreciate his face."
"Wei Juncheng, Xue Taishou escorted the grain and grass to the north, and now the government affairs in the county are in the hands of you, how about the commercial and trade exchanges between Hepu Port and the South China Sea countries this year" Walking on the street together, Chen Zhi looked back and asked.
"General Hui, in the middle of this month, 25 merchant ships returned to Hong Kong to unload their cargo, and in addition, there were 73 merchant ships leaving the port, and more than 3 million yuan in commercial taxes were collected."
"There are taxes on entry and exit, nearly a hundred ships can collect more than three million yuan, this is still King Wu's order to reduce the ship tax, but back and forth to unload goods have to pay the ship tax, these caravans have complained" Wei Teng smiled bitterly, "The general doesn't know, this shipload is as little as a few thousand catties, as much as one hundred or two hundred thousand catties, a shipload to overseas, can make tens of millions of dollars, before the return trip to the overseas Yi country to buy rare toys and ship back, you can also get millions of money." ” "I never thought that this Maritime Silk Road could also be taxed so heavily, just to let the merchants pass through the world, whether it would tempt those ordinary people to abandon agriculture and become merchants" "The general doesn't need to worry, this sea trade is no better than others, if it is on the Yangtze River, a small boat is fine, but in this sea, the waves are turbulent, even if it is a warship of our sailors, there is a risk of annihilation, and ordinary people do not dare to rashly go out to do business, not to mention that many traders from ordinary people can not buy business."
While talking and laughing, Chen Zhi had already walked into the courtyard, dozens of officials were sitting in the courtyard, and the round table where Chen Zhi was sitting were all civil and military officials of about 400 stones.
After drinking and eating, one followed Chen Zhi into the courtyard, and he waved his hand to send off the waiters on the left and right.
"But Wei Juncheng still has important things to explain," Chen Zhi stared at him.
"General Chen Zhi doesn't know me, I don't know if I can recognize this thing" The person who came carefully closed the door, and when he turned around, he had already taken out an iron card from his sleeve.
Chen Zhi looked at the word "Bai Yu" on the iron plate, his pupils contracted slightly, "Who are you?"
"Huang Jin, the military marquis under the command of General Liao Yuanjian, is here to ask the general for help on the order of the saint."
"General Zilong fought in Hedong, once released Liu Feng, this situation has been reported for my Uncle Chen, you smuggled here today, it is not far from thousands of mountains and rivers, you will go out to the north at this moment, and I will treat you as if I have never seen you."
Chen Zhi sat on the stool and put down the teapot in his hand with one hand.
"That's Zhao Zilong's return to the old friendship under the command of Gongsun Zhan, and Uncle Chen to He Ganru have followed Your Majesty for many years, and you are the commander of Your Majesty's personal guard Bai Yu's elite soldiers, General Chen is really so ungrateful."
Chen Zhi glared at him coldly, "I Chen came to the command of King Yu in the past, because he valued his benevolence, but what has he done now, under the pretense of recruiting Naliang in the name of the emperor's uncle, expanding the recruitment of soldiers and horses, but now he usurps the throne and becomes the emperor."
What is the difference with Cao Cao in Hebei In the past, he always despised the king of Wu in Jiangdong, but if it is divided into three points today, only the king of Wu refused the edict of the Son of Heaven and refused to stand on his own. ” Speaking of this, he paused, "I heard that in the battle of the Central Plains, the Ruyu army gathered more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, but the huge Central Plains can really raise more than 100,000 soldiers. ” "Let's see, how the king of Eastern Wu used the barbarian spirit as a slave, and the Han general to resist the barbarian soldiers, the four or five hundred thousand generals of the Eastern Wu army, but half of them were from the south and the north, and the barbarian soldiers of all departments.
Now under Jiangdong, the people of various states and counties are not short of food and clothing, and there is still surplus food at home at the end of the year.
Huang Jin was dumbfounded, "Uncle Chen, you are so ruthless and unrighteous" Chen Zhi smiled miserably, "If you come within a year or two of my capture and persuade me to raise an army to rebel against Eastern Wu, maybe this general will not hesitate to follow King Yu and fight to the death." ” "But now, I have been in Tuntian in Zhuya County for three or four years, educating thousands of people, and I have already let go of the past.
I advise you, if you return now, you may be able to save your life, otherwise you will have to die. ” "In the past, when Mao Xiao first returned to Dongwu, when he entered Changsha at night to persuade Zhang Xian, it was the same when he entered Changsha at night, and the same was true for Uncle Ru Chen, I want to know why Uncle Ru Chen wanted to surrender him Liu Qiru is not a person who cherishes his life."
"Let's let someone tell you."
As soon as the words fell, the door was pushed open from the outside, but Wei Teng, who was angry, rushed in with a group of servants, and surrounded Huang Jinfeng in the hall in an instant.
"I never thought that I tried to hide my whereabouts, but I was still detected by Wu Wei of Rujiangdong."
Huang Jin smiled bitterly and didn't look at Chen Zhi on the table.
"Wei Juncheng, I have always heard that you are upright, and today's incident is all due to someone's fault, and I ask Juncheng not to implicate General Chen because of this."
Fang Cairu and Wei heard the conversation between the two people, and Wei naturally would not implicate General Chen because of this.
Moreover, General Chen Zhi is a patrol general crowned by King Wu, who can control the coastal counties and islands, and I can be blamed for crimes. ” Chen Zhi glanced at Huang Jin with a complicated gaze, "Since you are the old department of the Bai Yu soldiers, who is under the control of you now?"
"Your Majesty."
As he spoke, Huang Jin bowed slightly towards Chen Zhi, "Uncle Zhi, general, go some." ” With that, he put his hands down, and a short blade slipped from his sleeve into his palm, and with a wave of his short blade, it stabbed directly into his heart.
"Your Majesty, the minister is powerless to persuade Uncle Chen, and today he can only apologize for his sins with death."
He let out a long roar, and his body fell limply to the ground, blood gushing from under him and dripping to the ground.
"Wei Juncheng."
"What can General Chen command?"
"Today's incident was frankly told to King Wu at a certain meeting, and asked Wei Juncheng Mo to hide it for Chen Zhi."
"Wei is a person, and he has always been upright, so naturally he will not add more words, nor will he say half a word."
"That'll be fine."
Chen Zhi bowed slightly, stretched out his hand and pointed to the corpse on the ground, "I don't know if Chen can bury this person." ” "Of course."
The following month, after Liu Qi received Wu Wei's secret report and Chen Zhi's handwritten letter in Yingchuan Daying, he smiled calmly: "Liu Bei only thought of him Chen Shuzhi at this moment, but it was too late, he claimed to be the emperor in vain, he had turned his back on the Liu clan, and the people of the world were detached from him, and now it is not what the people want." ” At the beginning of May, the Chosha fell.
Three days later, Hanoi fell, and more than 200,000 troops from Jiangdong besieged Chenliu
