Chapter 284 A controversy about harvest

The Japanese soldiers jumped like flying and ran very quickly. In the blink of an eye, they rushed to a distance of ten steps from the elephant and dispersed to surround the war elephant. But then, the reaction of the Zhanpo soldiers stunned them - the soldiers threw away their weapons and ran away, at a very fast speed.

Seeing their running, the student who asked Zhao Xing was puzzled and quickly sought confirmation from his companion: "I read it right, right? The teacher said they were not good at running, but I saw that they ran faster than rabbits."

...

The rest was like an armed parade. Zhao Xing and his team were finished and Mathew went back on the road. On the road, they encountered several groups of Zhan Po village soldiers. They always stood far away, shouted at the team, and occasionally shot a few arrows with bamboo bows. Zhao Xing had just formed a formation here, but before he could start the charge, he could no longer find the enemy.

The depressed Zhao Xing finally rushed to the city of Bintong City at sunset. Things that made him even more depressed came. Chen Buqun led a group of naval officers to greet Zhao Xing arrogantly. He patted his stomach and said, "Teacher, I have grabbed your lead now. I only fired two rounds of artillery attacks the next morning, and the people in the city had already come to surrender...

But why did the teacher beat all the groups of people I sent to greet? I have been occupying this city for three days and waited for the teacher to come. I sent several groups of people to wait on the path in succession, but they were all beaten back by the teacher, saying that you are very vicious and cannot be spoken or welcomed."

Zhao Xing looked at Bintong City in a depressed mood and asked: "Why is this city so intact... Did you say you have fired two rounds of cannons?"

Chen Buqun nodded: "Teacher, I will advance the artillery fire as you say... Well, 'barrass Xu Jin'. My first round of guns just cleared the dock, and the second round of guns extended to the city. A white flag was erected on the top of the city, and then their city lord came out... This kid reacted very quickly. It made me embarrassed to start."

Zhao Xing was depressed. He waved his hand irritably and let his soldiers enter the city. These elite infantry soldiers had lost more than 10% of their personnel after the difficult journey on the road. Now the battle is over. In the middle, their only battle is that Zhao Xing threw a grenade into the water and killed countless piranhas.

After entering the city lord's mansion, Zhao Xing asked Chen Buqun: "Have you forgotten it, how are you getting it?"

Chen Buqun replied: "To be honest, the locals here really have the custom of collecting gold and goldware... But let me see that their biggest treasure is still in various temples. The statues in the temple are covered with gold, which is magnificent, which makes people envious... The local city lord is a prince of Chameng. He has been king Yu Bintong for three hundred years, and there are many gold, silver and jewelry in the palace, but his surrender is so refreshing that I feel embarrassed to turn against you."

Zhao Xing shook his head: "I'm sorry, I have to rob it. Before leaving, weren't you asking me, are you worried that the court would object? Let me tell you: immediately send this prince onto the ship. Then send all the royal families in the city to the ship, and let them go to Bianliang in person to explain to Your Majesty why they frequently attacked our Song Shang. Your Majesty in the palace is a child, and he is in the rebellious period of youth. And he is so happy to be accustomed to the achievements. The treasures in the palace of Bintong are the magic weapons to close His Majesty's eyes, and his property is the treasures that make the courtiers shut their mouths...

Hurry up and do it. I'm not here to see the scenery. I'm here to help King Bintong rectify the "vulgar style" - yes, this word is good. You should quickly move those vulgar gold, goldware, antiques, gems... whatever you think is vulgar, I will keep all the vulgar things on my boat and keep them. I'm worried that Bintong people will develop a luxurious and flamboyant atmosphere. That's the country that will destroy. For their own good, I will barely keep these vulgar things, and will not charge their storage fees!"

Chen Buqun grinned and replied with a smile: "I knew the teacher could find an excuse... I took action now, and the men were screaming in a hurry. Now, I also felt that Bintong people had too many vulgar things, for justice, for Nanyang, and for... no matter what reason he was for, let's start robbing!"

In the blink of an eye, Chen Buqun ran away without a trace. Zhao Xing ordered behind him to ask all the royal families in Bintong City to meet in the palace and wait for the welcome to Zhao Xing. After these people arrived at the palace, Zhao Xing did not see them for a long time. The navy unloaded a few small cannons from the ship and blocked the people in the palace square. Then, Zhao Xing's soldiers began to act. They began to search the royal family's property from house to house, but deliberately did not harm the common people.

At the same time, in the north, Vietnam broke through the Qingshui Pass of Chameng Kingdom at all costs and began to siege the capital of Chameng Kingdom Indra Bula. No one will come to rescue Bintong City, which also means that Chameng Kingdom is about to be destroyed.

That night, the royal family in Bintong City was sent on board, and the operation to search the royal palaces lasted for ten days. Zhao Xing turned a blind eye during the inspection operation, allowing the soldiers to fill their pockets and plunder them to death. Afterwards, he also intercepted 30% of the treasures and took them off from the list. He and Chen Buqun and Shuai Fan had a private separation. In this way, the gold treasures on the record that were found in the entire Bintong City were still worth 130 million yuan.

"Too little too little!" Zhao Xing looked at the mountain of treasures with regret on his face and said unwillingly: "The capital of the king is just a piece of fat. We gave the fat to the Vietnamese. It's so regretful..."

In the original history, Champaign then fought a two hundred years of war with Vietnam. This two hundred years of war eventually consumed all the land of Champaign, causing them to perish in the late Southern Song Dynasty. But in this way, after Vietnam exterminated Champaign, it still plundered treasures worth more than the 15th year of the Song Dynasty. At that time, the taxes of the Song Dynasty were about 100 million guan.

Chen Buqun's eyes were red when he was stimulated by the huge treasures. He kept instigating: "The teacher often said that there are no eternal friends or eternal covenants between countries, and it is purely a marriage of interests. Vietnam has been attacking the royal city of Indra Pula for a long time, so it is better for us to go and help the leader."

Shuai Fan, who followed, was also fanning the flames: "Sir, stay here to stay. I will lead the soldiers from the sea and use cannons to bomb the wall of the royal city... I saw that this is called a city wall, just some bamboo mats to wrap the soil. With a few rounds of cannons, they will definitely be able to blow up the earth enclosure."

Zhao Xing shook his head: "I'll go in person and deal with the people of Dayue. It's more appropriate for me to come forward. Here, you will be in charge and try to transport the things back to Bianliang as soon as possible to block the mouths of the officials in the capital... By the way, where is the Li family's girl?"

Shuai Fan stayed in Dongmutou City at that time to supervise the development of Dongmutou City. Li Qingzhao also stayed safely with Shuai Fan. After the Bintong City was broken, the two of them rushed over.

Shuai Fan admired the little girl's cleverness. He pointed to the back of the palace and replied: "She is in the King's Curry. She is said to be planning to count the warehouse of King Bintong. She said that she had found many relics of Han and Tang dynasties there, and she planned to play with it."

Zhao Xing clapped and laughed: "Tell her, just take whatever she likes. It's not something I have. I don't feel sorry for you."

After Zhao Xing finished speaking, he pointed at his feet and said, "This batch of goods will be transported out quickly. A hundred lime ships will come from Guangzhou soon. I ordered a hundred lime ships. You help me demolish this earthen city and then build a stone city... The people in Bintong City are not my people, so I don't feel sorry for me - I recruit them for labor and build a stone city for me. The craftsman hired a stonemason from Zhenla nearby and paid with the money of Bintong King.

I plan to change this place to be called Camran City. The small bay in front of the city will be called Camran Bay in the future. I will tell the Vietnamese that you just need to build the city here. You must build this city as solid as a soup.

Immediately notify Dongmutou City and tell the Song merchants of Dongmutou City that I plan to reward their land. I ask them all to come and grab land near the city. I will reward them as much land as possible. Don’t be stingy with the soldiers, let them take as much as possible. But because the large cabin is limited, I agreed with them: those who have made contributions in this battle are allowed to take goods twice the weight on board; those who have no merits are allowed to take goods twice the weight..."

Shuai Fan was so excited that Zhao Xing wanted to demolish the city. This means that the entire Bintong building did not need to be preserved. Well. It seems that Zhao Xing used to show off his "Holan Yuanfu Zun's house beams roasted horse legs". This time Shuai Fan ran slower. All the good things have been counted. Now Zhao Xing wants to demolish the city. In this way, can I remove Bintong King's house beams and take them home to inlaid them on my own house and show off for the rest of my life...

After discussing a few words with Zhao Xing, Shuai Fan was already absent-minded...

A few days later, Zhao Xing summoned 3,000 local soldiers from Bintong City, and led 2,000 Song soldiers to Indra Buluo City. His arrival immediately intensified the tragic battle of the royal capital. Originally, the Vietnamese fought against Bintong, and were always worried that the casualties would be too great and that others would rob them. Therefore, the intensity of the war was always controlled within an acceptable range. Now with the help of the Song Dynasty, it was different. They had all their wealth.

Under the bombardment of cannons, the Cham City King fell, and then the Song soldiers and Vietnamese soldiers rushed into the city and began a big robbery.

This was a robbery game. Who would have thought that decades ago, Song Bing had exchanged fire with Jiaozhi to rescue Zhan Po, and the two sides fought hard to separate. But then, the Champo Kingdom took advantage and did not thank him. Jiaozhi bowed down and slowly took back the lost land. This year, today, Song Bing actually joined forces with Jiaozhi to attack the capital of Cham City.

Zhao Xing was always quick to grab things. His soldiers snatched them once in Bintong, and had already formed a theoretical, systematic, standardized robbery process. The soldiers who entered the city first immediately occupied the palace, but the Vietnamese were familiar with the terrain and immediately took over the Cham City treasury. Then, the Song soldiers were unwilling to fall behind to seize the Cham City official office, mainly the War Arsenal and the Ministry of Revenue Money. Subsequently, more Vietnamese soldiers flocked to the city and began to rob the city...

The Vietnamese general was an acquaintance Li Yuan. He rushed into the palace angrily. When he met the happy Zhao Xing on the steps of the palace, he asked, "Brother Zhao, what do you mean? It's useless to ask the King of Champa. What are you doing to occupy the palace?"

Zhao Xing nodded with a smile and echoed: "Yes, it's useless for me to ask for the King of Chameng. I'll take it back. It's hard for the court to explain it to you. The Chameng royal family, both men, women, and young. But the property in the palace cannot be given, this is the spoils of the children... In addition, the soldiers have worked hard to capture the King of Chameng, and they cannot let the children hand over the king for nothing - you have to pay a hard fee!"

Li Yuan looked at the palace and said ruthlessly: "Brother Zhao, Lord Zhao, 70% of the wealth of Chameng Kingdom is in the palace. You are dominating the palace now. Do you want to take over that treasure? But what should I do if I, Dayue Kingdom? Could it be that we have a fight in vain?

Do you know how many people died before Qingshui Pass? 50,000! My country of Dayue is not the Song Dynasty, and there are not so many people who die well. 50,000 people, you must let me have an explanation to the people."

Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "Yes, you died 50,000 people under Qingshui Pass. But if it weren't for me, would you dare to force them to the land king capital after you died 50,000 people? Without me, can you break through their royal city? Cham City and Jiaozhi are a century-old enemy. You decide to fight, and the land in the north of Cham City belongs to you. What's the point of me? Why are you so small and boring!"

Li Yuan took a few breaths and asked, "What price do I need to pay before you can stop?"

Zhao Xing pointed south and replied: "South of Bintong City!"

Li Yuan jumped up suddenly: "Brother Zhao, I now find that you are the biggest enemy in the Battle of Champa. I have worked hard for Dayue. The spoils... Your appetite is too big. Bintong's land is not connected to Dasong. What are you going to do?"

Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "For my son, the son born by Chen Yiyi, why should I be the king? I guess I wouldn't care about this overseas enclave in the Song Dynasty, so I gave it to my son. You Dayue made my youngest son the king. You gave it to you a princess, and agreed to wait until they grow up and get married. You will also grant all the south of Bintong City to my son, and I will run it and pay taxes according to the rules. How about it?"

Li Yuan smiled: "Brother Zhao's conditions are not harsh, but I heard that the child Yi Yi gave birth to is only two years old. Is Brother Zhao going to immigrate to my Dayue? Then I am very welcome... Well. I heard that the Celestial Party was in a big turmoil, and it was so far that even Lord Zhao was considering escaping?!"

Zhao Xing shook his head: "I don't plan to manage Bintong in person. In the past few years, I have trained some students and boys. I am planning to let them practice management methods, so I asked them to come to this land to practice and accumulate some government experience. When my son grows up, he will come over to get married - you call it "Jufan". Right?

However, I cannot guarantee whether my son will live in this land in the future. But even if he does not live in that land, you are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of Bintong. The officials there are appointed by me and all power is in me. I can promise to pay taxes to you and recognize your sovereignty."

Li Yuan also sat down happily and bargained: "I have half of all the property in the palace... Officials of Bintong can be appointed by you, but they must report to my king."

Zhao Xing replied: "Divid you 10% of the land, you picked it up for free, 10% is already good... I will only report to you the appointment of officials south of Bintong City, and you must admit it one by one without your approval."

Li Yuan replied: "45%... Who will inherit that industry after your son must be recognized by my Dayue royal family. This is our sovereignty, and you must respect it."

Zhao Xing replied: "Thirty percent, don't overturn... The inheritance of the throne can be approved by your consent, but you do not have the right to garrison there. The Bin Spons army must be my private army, which is managed by us and supported by us."

Li Yuan patted his thigh and smiled, "Well, 30% of the total amount... But we have to check the annual tax amount, and we must not lose a single cent of the tax you should pay!"

Zhao Xing rolled his eyes: "Now I am only willing to pay 20%, otherwise you will give me a fixed tax amount, and it will be adjusted every fifty years."

"No!" Li Yuan jumped up and said angrily: "How can such a thing be..."

Zhao Xing raised his fist like a garlic mortar, blew his breath in a demonstration, interrupting the other party, and said slowly: "Since ancient times, I have never heard of the land that was a king, and I promise you this is an abnormal tax. It was originally intended that you reflect the sovereignty, so you should not be more greedy."

Li Yuan stomped his feet on the spot a few times and asked angrily: "How much tax do you plan to pay?"

Zhao Xing stretched out a finger, Li Yuan widened his eyes and looked disbelief. Zhao Xing said honestly: "Ten thousand coins!"

"Trade!" Li Yuan answered very readily. He stretched out his hand and shook Zhao Xing, and then answered sincerely: "Originally, if you only need to pay a copper coin tax, I will do it too."

Zhao Xing sincerely replied: "Originally, I stretched out a finger and wanted to say a million yuan, but looking at your expression, I sincerely want to anger you."

Li Yuan smiled as if flowers were blooming on his face. He held Zhao Xing's hand and shook it repeatedly: "Fifty years will not change!"

"It remains unchanged for fifty years!" Zhao Xing answered firmly.

Li Yuan proudly called a team of 100 people to take over the Chameng royal family in the palace. He didn't care about these clean and plain royal family, as if he didn't see Zhao Xing plundering them, and even the Chameng royal seal did not ask about whereabouts. He directly ordered: "Drag out and behead! No one left!"

Zhao Xing smiled and watched Li Yuan drag the Chameng royal family out. With his hands on, he took out the Chameng royal seal from his sleeve to watch. He raised it with his left hand to greet the people behind him and ordered: "Now, order the soldiers to enter the King's Cut in batches. Tell them to move only once, and let them move. No matter how much they move out of the King's Cut, it is their own. He ordered them to label their own things and pile them in the palace square.

Tell them that I will send someone to take care of their land. Since they have got it, I will do some serious work for me, transport things to the dock, move all the land and things to the dock to me, load them into the ship and ship them to Jinlan... By the way, the five thousand boy soldiers are also included. Allow them to enjoy the same treatment, enter the Wangku, and get as much as they have. Tell them that the first move was for them to move themselves..."

Li Yuan flashed very quickly. When he left the ground, he did not ask Zhao Xing how to deal with the Song Dynasty court. After dealing with the Chameng royal family, he was busy taking over the Chameng government office, while Zhao Xing was busy making great fortunes here...

Just when he was anxious to move the treasury of Cham City, King Bintong of Cham City had been taken to Bianliang. Zhao Xing told the reason why he escorted King Bintong into the capital in the form. He found more than ten merchants and accused King Bintong of accusing King Bintong to accommodate pirates and condoned pirates to rob Song Shang, and even "robbed Zhao Xing's head."

In the memorial, Zhao Xing acted like a rash man, saying that because of the decline in trading volume of the Maritime Warehouse, he frequently went out to sea to patrol, and as a result, he was attacked by pirates on the sea.

Zhao Xing was a firecracker, and everyone knew that Jie Chou, who escorted the Fourth Sumen scholar, returned to the Ministry of Personnel, had already accused him everywhere. Therefore, Zhao Xing couldn't bear the violent temper. He fought back and chased the pirates into Bintong City - everyone can understand this. What everyone didn't understand was that Zhao Xing actually captured Bintong City fiercely, captured Bintong King, and escorted Bintong King to the capital, asking him to apologize to His Majesty himself.

That night, the censors anxiously prepared materials to attack Zhao Xing's practice of "suppressing people with strength and not being kind and righteous", but the subsequent news caused them to collectively absent - Zhao Xing reported: He broke through the Bintong Palace and plundered about 160 million yuan of wealth. He was loading and shipping the wealth to Binliang, preparing to use the money as King Bintong to apologize to Song Dynasty.

One hundred and sixty million coins, not the same six.

With the financial difficulties of the Song Dynasty and frequent reports of famines, this amount of money that was equivalent to the two-year financial and taxation of the Song Dynasty, which made officials not know what to do.

The entire Song Dynasty was in amazement. Zhao Xing's first ship of goods arrived, all of which were goldware, inlaid with gems from unknown names, and a ship weighing several tons. The ship of goldware was parked at the dock of Xiangguo Temple and unloaded for three consecutive days. The carriages transported to the palace ran continuously for three days. Some small goldware fell from the carriages, and the soldiers transported were even despised to bend down, which made the people in the capital pick up a bargain.

Subsequently, more large amounts of treasures were shipped, including gold, silver, and a large number of Nanyang treasures that could not be described in Mingtang: rhino horn cups are calculated by pounds, coral branches are measured by basket quantity, pearls are measured by car, ivory is measured by boat...

Regarding the Nanyang battle, Zhao Xing only had four words to evaluate: people are stupid and money is high!

The entire Song Dynasty was shocked by this wealth. Immediately afterwards, Jiaozhi Kingdom submitted a letter, claiming that he had heard of the unfairness suffered by the merchants of the Song Dynasty, so he raised an army to help the Song Dynasty retaliate. Now he has broken through the capital of Chameng, killed the entire Chameng royal family, and destroyed the Chameng Kingdom...

In the memorial, Vietnam expressed humbly: I heard that the Song army captured Bintong City, so the troops of the Dayue Kingdom stopped north of Bintong City and were willing to devote the land south of Bintong City to the Dayue and let the Dayue take over.

The actions of the Vietnamese king immediately caused an uproar in the court.

Champa had already destroyed the country, and King Bintong no longer had any identity. So the Song Dynasty did not need to worry about benevolence, righteousness and morality. Of course, the treasures plundered by Zhao Xing could be used as war compensation. The rest was how to maintain the face of the court.

At this point, war compensation, the word "Since" entered the Song Dynasty for the first time.

In the court, some people also suggested that the Great Yue Kingdom captured the entire Chameng Kingdom, which would greatly increase its power, and the court might not be able to restrain it in the future, but this argument was immediately submerged in a controversy and did not even make a splash.
Chapter completed!
