The Three Kingdoms

At this time, Zhang Zhao changed the subject, sent a copy of the schedule directly, and said in a low voice, "Please take a look!"

"National debt? It's a huge amount. The turmoil of the pension case has not yet passed. Wouldn't it be too urgent to put the national debt in the second quarter on the agenda at this time?"

Sun Jian flipped through the schedule, squinted his eyes, and asked: "And here is a total of 100 billion yuan, but it exceeds our annual tax. If there is a delay, we will lose all face!"

The first tranche of the national debt was a sweet treat for Wu's court. The second tranche should have appeared within three months of the Chinese New Year, but the pension case delayed this plan for a long time.

The case of the martyr's pension has actually had a great impact on Wu Guo, and even frustrated Wu Guo's public opinion.

"Your Majesty."

Zhang Zhao smiled slightly, and reported, "The issuance of the first installment of the national debt was actually impatient. Dong Hou once said that there is a set of procedures in the issuance of the national debt. Before the issuance of the national debt, an investigation must be done. So someone has asked people to go to various places to do a survey."

"The pension case did have a certain impact on Wu, but that was the influence of the Jiangdong family. On the contrary, the prestige of Wu's court has been raised to a higher level, which is somewhat different from what we imagined. When the family bears the burden of this After being stigmatized, we investigated with great fanfare and killed the corrupt family members one by one, and instead gained the reputation of clean government!"

"Hehe!" Sun Jian was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, smiled wryly a few times, and said, "Let this kid do one more thing right!"

Regarding the pension case, his idea was to cover the pot and deal with it slowly, first of all to preserve the reputation of the court, and Sun Quan directly uncovered the whole pot instead, exposing the matter to the world.

Facts have proved that Sun Quan's approach is correct.

Zhang Zhao paused for a moment, then continued: "And now we have to worry about it. The sudden battle in Youzhou has put a heavy burden on us. The treasury left over from last year has been wiped out, and we will have to repay the first installment in half a year. The national debt, which is also a large amount.”

"It's all money!"

Sun Jian smiled wryly. He was not in charge of the family, and he didn't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. Wu State is the richest vassal state in the world.Although it is impossible to support the young and depend on the old, at least no one will starve to death.

But when the guns fired, the gold would be ten thousand taels.

This era is not an era of hot weapons, there are no guns and ammunition, and they are not so expensive, but when wars are fought, money is also flowing.

Call back and forth.The fight is actually logistics.

——————————————————————————————

At this moment, the palace of Yan Kingdom.

"Report to Your Majesty, outside the west city gate, the military camp of Jin State that Wu State attacked!"

"Report to the king, now Ju Yizhen is chasing Wu soldiers!"

"Report to Your Majesty, outside the south city gate, the Jin State has retreated, and the Wu army attacked their camp. Now the two armies are really at war!"

Hearing the news from the scouts outside the city one by one, Gongsun Zan couldn't help showing a relieved smile on his dry face.

"The west city gate and the south city gate are both fighting. It seems that all the soldiers and horses of the Wu State are indeed going south. They are going to fight the Jin State to the death!"

Guan Jing, who is so calm, couldn't help but smile slightly after hearing the exact news. …

He thought there was some conspiracy before, but when the two armies fought, he no longer doubted it.This is already a real fight, with all the troops on the table, there is no conspiracy.

"Hahaha, good! Good! They have already started to bite the dog's bones, and the two evil wolves of Jin State and Wu State are actually fighting. This news makes Gu Xin happy!"

Gongsun Zan even burst out laughing directly, his eyebrows were beaming, and he seemed very happy.

These days, he was facing the attack of hundreds of thousands of troops from the two countries. Even though his self-confidence in front of the generals was meaningless, his heart was always tense, fearing that one day, Jicheng would be destroyed.

After all, both Wu State and Jin State are the strongest vassal states in the world today, neither of them can be resisted by the strength of Yan State. Now that the two countries are attacking at the same time, Yan State only has Jicheng, the imperial capital, and he himself At one time, it was thought that Yan State was about to perish.

Now, he finally saw the hope of Yan Kingdom.

As long as the two countries fight, he can benefit from it. The tens of thousands of main forces are still there. When they are both defeated, they will send troops in one fell swoop to regain the lost ground.

This is what Gongsun Zan thinks now.

"Fang Tu, Ru said that Gu should lead his troops out of the city now, and use Wu's troops to make trouble. If we can take the opportunity to defeat Jin, then our Yan's troubles can be easily solved!"

Gongsun Zan thought for a while and said.

In his heart, the state of Jin is much more troublesome than the state of Wu. Although the state of Wu is also powerful, its foundation, the main force is in Jiangdong, and there are actually not many soldiers and horses that can appear in the north.

Now it's the limit.

But Jin State is different. Jizhou is adjacent to Youzhou. Even if it doesn't work this time, there will be another time. If you can't defeat him at once, even if you retreat this time, you will attack again next year.

"My lord, the state of Wu's fight is too weird. It's still a bit strange. Don't go out of the city. If the state of Wu and the state of Wei join forces to make a show, we will fall into a trap."

Guan Jing looked cautious, shook his head, and said, "We still focus on Jicheng!"

"You are right!"

Gongsun Zan trembled when he heard this, and immediately calmed down, his eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said, "However, the troops from the North City and the East City should be dispatched to the south. There will inevitably be a weak force at the Nanxi City Gate, and the gap will be opened!"

"This works!"

Guan Jing nodded, he thought for a while, but there was no objection, and said: "We can dispatch half of our troops to the south from the two major city gates, in case of accidents!"

From their point of view, since the Wu army had all gone south, there would naturally be no threat at the city gate, and the scouts were watching them. If they went north, there must be news, and the soldiers and horses in the city would be dispatched back.

But they didn't expect that because of their decision, the thousand-year-old city of Jicheng would be breached overnight!

----------------------

In the afternoon, the scorching sun hangs in the sky.

Outside the south city gate, in the camp of the Jin army, the sound of beating drums resounded above the sky, and the sound of footsteps approached continuously from the outside to the inside.The camp was surrounded by water.

Ambush from all sides.

Sun Quan's face had a color like ashes.

After Yang Feng and Zhang Yan's soldiers and horses rounded up, the Black Mountain Army, together with the tiger soldiers under the chariot, now tens of thousands of troops gathered together quickly, forming a defensive formation.

Sun Quan's figure held high the center of the safest army formation, riding on horseback, his eyes swept across.

A cold light flashed in his pair of amber crystal eyes.Looking at Tian Feng next to Yuan Shao with some gloom.

Tian Feng!

This was his haste, they had never fought against each other before, and they only knew Tian Feng's name, so after all, he underestimated the enemy, and in the end he fell into the trick and jumped into the trap he had prepared. …

"Sun Zhongmou, surrender!"

The beating of drums stopped suddenly, the soldiers and horses besieged and the soldiers and horses besieged.The two armies faced each other at a distance of 20 meters, and the atmosphere was tense. Yuan Shao got on his horse and rode out. Facing Sun Quan, his cold and arrogant voice filled the somewhat silent battlefield.

"joke!"

Sun Quan grinned at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, and his iron voice resounded throughout the audience: "Sun Zhongmou of a certain family is the son of a tiger. How could he beg for mercy like a cat. If you want to fight, so and so will fight!"
