In fact, the financial problems of the major rebels are very serious. The Yuan court has caused too much damage. Before withdrawing, they took away all they could take away. , It was also not lightly searched.At the beginning of the rebel army, it was natural to be able to fight by drawing big cakes, but after that, they had to have tangible benefits, not to mention other things, the military pay they should have must not be less.Raising soldiers costs money, fighting wars costs money, everything costs money.There is a lot of wealth obtained from the raid, but if it is distributed to the people below, the per capita can get very little!Therefore, everyone is short of money and food!

When Shu Yun took over Zhu Yuanzhang's finances, Li Shanchang was in charge of these matters, and then he got a bunch of fellow villagers to smuggle them, and the other rebels were the same.Like Zhang Shicheng, they originally started their business by selling smuggled salt. Even now, most of the salt used in Jiangnan is smuggled from Zhang Shicheng's territory.

Shu Yun wanted to dry the salt by himself, but the problem was that Zhu Yuanzhang's site was still some distance from the coastline, so it was obviously inappropriate to set up a salt field, especially in the south of the Yangtze River where there were more rainy seasons and the sunshine was not enough, so it was not worthwhile to set up a salt field.As for the mineral salt, Shu Yun is not very interested in geography, so it is not clear whether there is any salt mine here.Therefore, it is very necessary to buy a large amount of private salt from Zhang Shicheng.In addition, raw lacquer, tung oil and the like are also goods that will be smuggled in large quantities, and these can be used to make weapons.So, in fact, this kind of smuggling to earn money for the government is actually aiding the enemy. It depends on who can arm themselves better before the enemy arms themselves!

In order to be able to continue fighting, my side almost went bankrupt, and my subordinates complained a lot, while the opponent made a lot of money. Everyone under my subordinates was full of energy, and no one would be mentally challenged. Balanced.

They wanted to imitate Ying Tian's approach, but Ying Tian was able to achieve this situation because of Shu Yun's insight on the one hand, and Zhu Yuanzhang's iron-blooded skills on the other hand.As long as there is any deficiency, it will be a situation where painting a tiger is not an anti-dog.

Zhu Yuanzhang may have the worst background among so many rebel leaders. In his resume, he has been a monk and a beggar, while the others, more or less, still had some capital when they started their businesses.Most typically, the Zhang Shicheng brothers are all private salt dealers. No matter what dynasty they are in, selling private salt is a terrible thing. Therefore, their brothers have a group of confidantes who dare to fight and fight hard. In addition, they have saved a lot of money. money.Xu Shouhui and Chen Youliang are finally the kind of people with permanent property, which is better than Zhu Yuanzhang's poor and white.

In any case, after they started their business, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they always had to rely on the local tycoons who invested in Qianlong, and relying on these tycoons, they also had more capital, and everyone was mutually beneficial.Under such circumstances, the interests between them have long been confused, how can a strong man cut his wrists!

But Zhu Yuanzhang is different, he has only now settled down. After all, he did not work alone at the beginning, and he was really frustrated with Guo Zixing for a while. The tyranny is not too involved, so when doing things, there are many less scruples.

In the eyes of many people, Zhu Yuanzhang's territory now seems to be a mouth-watering piece of fat. If it is not for the restraint of each other, I am afraid that someone will call on the door soon.

In this regard, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have the slightest fear. His strength expanded relatively quickly, and the initial use of firearms also gave his soldiers and horses a higher combat effectiveness.In fact, in the Song Dynasty, there were already firearms, but at that time, what kind of kerosene was used, not pure gunpowder, and Shu Yun just mentioned a few ideas, and the craftsmen below had put the mines, Grenades, artillery and the like are all out.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang was very excited by the small test of his edge. Although this thing is not a dimensionality reduction attack, with this, as long as a certain distance is opened, the enemy will not cause too many casualties to his side.

Now in Yingtian's side, firearms are the most confidential things. If anyone dares to leak the secrets, then Zhu Yuanzhang will never show any kindness.

However, the previous enemies were all bandits. For Zhu Yuanzhang, it could only be said to be porridge and side dishes. Using firearms is like killing a chicken with a butcher's knife.Zhu Yuanzhang eagerly hopes to make firearms truly show their strength on the battlefield.If it is said that in the past, Zhu Yuanzhang only wanted to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, to survive and develop, and to fight steadily, but now with the growth of his own strength, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart will naturally grow bigger.

In particular, the current situation in the Central Plains is corrupt, and the Yuan court is becoming more and more frenzied. On the one hand, it suppresses the rebels everywhere, and on the other hand, it forces Han people from all over the place to fight against the rebels as cannon fodder.The longer the time drags on, the greater the casualties of the Han people. Now that they have enough strength, it is natural to unify the south of the Yangtze River as soon as possible, expedite the northern expedition as soon as possible, drive the Mongols out of the Central Plains, and restore the great rivers and mountains.

At this time, the situation in Jiangnan had changed. Not long after Xu Shouhui became emperor, he was killed by Chen Youliang.Chen Youliang was not in the right position, so he naturally needed to divert internal conflicts, and wanted a big victory to establish his position, so he chose Zhu Yuanzhang.On the one hand, Zhu Yuanzhang's territory is relatively small, and his military strength is not as large as Chen Youliang's. On the other hand, he still covets Yingtian's current economic strength and wants to use Yingtian's wealth to strengthen his own strength.

Therefore, while Chen Youliang contacted Zhang Shicheng, saying that they joined forces to carve up Zhu Yuanzhang's territory, and everyone would share the benefits equally, in fact, he had already secretly prepared to cross the river and demolish the bridge.

Chen Youliang's little calculation is well done, and Zhu Yuanzhang is also preparing to kill monkeys and frighten chickens!Chen Youliang is that monkey, he is the strongest, if you don't kill him when he is not stable, there will be no such good opportunities in the future!

Zhu Yuanzhang had already realized a problem before. There were too many Huaixi fellow villagers under his command, and it had reached the point where it was overwhelming others.Therefore, he had to introduce other people to check and balance.He really can't trust other people like military generals, so he chose literati.

Now among the civil servants under Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Ji can stand against Li Shanchang, and he chose Song Lian as Zhu Biao's teacher. Are you still helping me with things?

Others are just fine, but Liu Ji did not live up to Zhu Yuanzhang's expectations at all, and he quickly came up with a practical and feasible combat plan.
