Chapter 1937 Scary dowry
"King, once you go deeper, you must fight quickly and decide quickly, and you cannot delay it." Guo Jia said.
Sun Ce looked at the mountains in the distance and remained silent. The general's determination and decisiveness, the bravery and good fighting of the soldiers, and even the cleverness of the craftsmen could only work within the scope of the battle. For long-term wars, economic strength is the decisive factor.
Huang Zhong chose to train troops in Fangling and Zhou Yu chose to train troops in Hutou Mountain, which was an important reason: the distance for transportation of baggage is not more than 300 miles. This distance can not only play the role of training troops, but also does not put too much pressure on logistics. The water surface of the middle and lower reaches of the Yuanshui River is wide enough, the flow is large enough, but the flow rate is not very fast, and the impact of going upstream on the transport ships is not too great. Going forward, transportation of baggage will become more difficult, and the consumption will increase exponentially, and it will eventually reach a limit.
With elite soldiers and better warships and equipment, this limit is significantly improved compared to before, but it is not without restrictions. It is fine if Huang Zhong is only two thousand miles from Hanzhong to Xiangyang. As long as he breaks through Ankang and enters the hinterland of Hanzhong, he can eat locally. Zhou Yu is different. Even if he enters southern Yizhou, he still cannot be self-sufficient and can only transport thousands of miles from Jiangnan to supplement.
With a budget of 5 billion yuan per year, all the financial resources of the four counties in Jiangnan were not enough, and a part of them would have to be allocated from Yangzhou. If it weren't for the initial results of the military farms in Jiangnan in recent years and the grain output was guaranteed, Zhou Yu's Jiangnan strategy would not have been possible. Despite this, he was still struggling and had to maintain a defensive position on the northern line, reduce expenditures, and transfer Zhuge Liang to Jiangnan to comprehensively coordinate the economic production of the four counties in Jiangnan.
He also wanted to fight quickly, but he knew better that some things should not be impatient. Haste can't be achieved. The more he wanted to fight quickly, the more likely he could be torn into a ball of mud, or even a mud.
"Hansheng and Gongjin are both steady people. They should believe in their own judgment and not put extra pressure on them." Sun Ce paused for a moment and said again: "Thousand-mile remote control is more harmful than good. We should make strategic planning and they will be responsible for how to fight."
Guo Jia shook the feather fan and didn't say anything anymore. Sun Ce saw it and laughed secretly. As far as the overall perspective is concerned, Guo Jia is still a little lacking, not as calm as Zhang Hong and Xun You.
"Fengxiao, what do you think George will do at Arc de arch? He is confident that he will quickly take Arc de arch de arch?"
When talking about tactical issues, Guo Jia suddenly felt energetic. "This is very simple. The Arc depot has been in the hands of our army. It has been a few years since it was easy to do some tricks. For example, if you leave a dark hole when building a city, or build a section into a fake wall, there is no flaw on the outside, and it is empty inside, and you will fall down with a heavy trencher. Considering that you have to stay for a long time, this kind of self-harm-like hand and foot is generally not used, and the possibility of entering from the secret passage is the greatest."
"Secret passage?"
"Many cities have secret passages, but they are in different forms. For cities like Arc descent, the most common secret passage is the secret river. At the beginning of the city building, you must consider the wells in the city to ensure that the water will not be cut off after the siege. Arc descent is Luoshui, and there must be a secret river below. These secret rivers have protective measures. After each general takes over the city, he will try his best to control these measures in his own hands, but this takes time. Moreover, some secret rivers are not marked on the map. No one can figure out all secret passages except the host of the city builder."
Guo Jia laughed. "I think George's goal is probably Xun Xiuruo, not Zhang Yang. I just didn't expect that Yuan Tan would leave Zhang Yang in Henan to die. After all, George is not as good as Ju Gongyu. His understanding of Yuan Tan is also stuck in the past, and I hope this time it can attract some lessons."
Guo Jia suddenly changed the topic. "King, after taking back Luoyang, I will hit Jia Xu."
Sun Ce snorted and nodded in agreement. Jia Xu was too naive to want to get along with both sides. "Since he wants to act, we will cooperate with him and act the show more seriously. Submit him to rely on Yuan Tan and transport sea salt into Hedong."
"Puff!" Guo Jia couldn't help laughing. "This old turtle is going to be anxious." He shook his fan. "Let's do this, let Jiang Ziyi marry Dong Qing, be generous with the betrothal gift, 30,000 stone sea salt, and pick the old turtle to death."
Hangu Pass.
The gorgeously decorated carriage slowly stopped in front of the mansion gate. The door was pushed open, Jiang Gan got out of the car, spread his arms, and stretched.
"Haha, I, Jiang Gan, are back."
"Do you still know to come back?" Dong Qing greeted him, raised his foot and kicked him. Jiang Gan dodged, hugged Dong Qing in his arms, and took a deep breath. "What a heavy resentment. Is it because of the past few months when I was away, you have cried every day?"
"You are so self-righteous, I'm very happy." Dong Qing struggled for a few moments, but couldn't get away. He hugged Jiang Gan's waist and pressed his face against Jiang Gan's chest. He listened to his strong heartbeat, and his tone became so fascinated. "You haven't watched me in the past few months, are you having fun?"
"I brought you a gift." Jiang Gan pointed to the cart behind him and squeezed his eyes. "Go and take a look?"
Dong Qing looked at the big cart and was very moved. It was a ox cart. The scalper pulling the cart was tall and strong. You could tell at a glance that it was quite strong. It was because there were too many things on the cart, and an ordinary horse might not be able to bear it. She glanced at Jiang Gan, and could no longer maintain her reserve and went there. Dong Yue stood aside in embarrassment. Although the people of Xiliang didn't care much about etiquette, his daughter was still a little embarrassed to be with Jiang Gan in front of him, and he had no dignity at all.
"I wonder what kind of news Jiang Dianke brought, what kind of Jun Crime is there for King Wu?" Dong Yue coughed and said seriously.
"This has nothing to do with the King of Wu." Jiang Gan shook his hand. "I am here to propose marriage. I want to fulfill my original promise and marry Ling Ai as my wife. Look, this is the betrothal gift list, please check it out."
Dong Yue was confused. Yuan Tan withdrew from Luoyang and Lu Su made a comeback. In less than ten days, Zhang Yang's entire army was wiped out. He was worried. Seeing Jiang Gan back, he thought everything was back on track, but he didn't expect Jiang Gan to just come to get a bride. He subconsciously looked down at the gift list in his hand, then was stunned, looked up at Jiang Gan, and then looked down at the gift list.
"What does this mean?"
"This is a betrothal gift. Do you think it's too much or too little?"
"I..." Dong Yue'er's red face turned purple, and even his hands were trembling. He stamped his feet and shouted: "Qing'er, Qing'er, come and take a look."
Dong Qing was in the cart to check the gifts Jiang Gan brought, including Shu brocade, Yue cloth, fallen forest powder, citrus, candied fruit, southern melons, food and clothing, and many things she didn't know at all. Her eyes were blurred, her heart was pounding, her legs were weak, and she wanted to pull Jiang Gan over and kiss her hard. When she heard Dong Yue's scream, she thought something had happened, so she got out of the car and rushed to Dong Yue.
"Ahon, what's wrong?"
"This... this is Jiang Dianke's betrothal gift, you... see if it's true."
"Bettrotter?" Dong Qing couldn't help but want to laugh, turned his head to look at Jiang Gan, his eyebrows were full of spring. Jiang Gan looked at her with a smile and blinked. Dong Qing's heartbeat was like a drum, not only was his face hot, but his body began to heat up. Jiang Gan finally fulfilled his promise to marry her as his wife. Although she had been with Jiang for so long, she had always wanted to be Jiang Gan's wife, but she often felt that it was unlikely. Jiang Gan was a famous scholar in Guandong and the confidant of the King of Wu. In the future, the King of Wu won the world, and it was beyond doubt that he would be the Nine Ministers. She was a woman in Liangzhou and could be Jiang Gan's concubine. How could she dare to be the wife?
Suddenly, happiness comes.
Dong Qing avoided Jiang Gan's hot gaze, tried to calm down, and looked down at the betrothal gift list. Unlike the dazzling array in the carriage, the betrothal gift list was very simple, with only a few pieces, the first of which was 30,000 shi of sea salt.
Dong Qing was also stunned for a moment, stared at these words again, and then became as confused as Dong Yue.
30,000 stones of sea salt? Dong Qing was a little scared. This was not a betrothal gift, but a knife stabbed Jia Xu with one knife. The 30,000 stone salt entered Hongnong, and the salt from Hedong could not enter Hongnong for at least one year. Of course, Dong Yue would have to pay a sufficient price to swallow the 30,000 stone salt. No one would believe that this was just a betrothal gift from Jiang Gan to marry her.
In terms of reason, they should not accept this betrothal gift. However, the 30,000 stone salt is worth 30 million, which is a huge sum of money for anyone. It is too difficult to make Dong Yue not moved. Moreover, if she rejected the 30,000 stone salt, not only would she and Jiang Gan not be able to accomplish anything, but Dong Yue would have completely broken up with the King of Wu, and it would be difficult to repair the relationship in the future.
"Why...so much?" Dong Qing murmured.
"Are there many?" Jiang Gan smiled. "Not many, although I, Jiang Gan, are not good at being a good person, I am Wu Guodian. If I don't have a betrothal gift, wouldn't you be laughed at if I don't have a betrothal gift?"
"But..." Dong Qing was happy and worried, pulled Jiang Gan's arm and whispered: "What should Mr. Wenhe think?"
Jiang Gan blinked. "If he wants to act, we will cooperate with him. What's wrong with it?" He patted Dong Qing's hand. "You decide for yourself."
Dong Qing raised his eyebrows. "What if we don't accept it?"
"Then don't blame me for being rude." Jiang Gan smiled and deliberately showed a ferocious face. "I'll bring someone to rob the kiss."
Dong Qing glared at Jiang Gan for a moment and laughed "Puchi". "Okay, then I'll wait for you to steal the bride, I'll be like our Liangzhou people."
Seeing his daughter flirting with Jiang Gan, Dong Yue was helpless. He did not dare to neglect, so he welcomed Jiang Gan into the mansion and asked in detail. Jiang Gan said nothing. The last time he cooperated with Jia Xu's performance, he was ridiculed by Guo Jia after returning to Xiangyang. After thinking about it carefully, he knew that he had been fooled by Jia Xu. Jia Xu said that he was acting for Yuan Tan, but who believed it? He did not show any sincerity from beginning to end.
This time he came back to kill, to take revenge on Jia Xu and let Jia Xu see what strength is the king.
