"Sir, what should I do next?" Wang Yu neither admitted nor denied what Guan Zhong said, but asked rhetorically.

"The next thing to do, the general is already doing, is to join the three kings and take Hebei first."

Among all the forces in the Great Cang today, the imperial court is definitely the most powerful party. If the power of the four towns is not restrained by the frontier affairs in three towns, then how could the three kings and Tianshi Dao be so rampant?
As the weak and weak, the first thing they should do, of course, is to join hands to defeat the most powerful party.Otherwise, they will only be defeated by the most powerful party one by one, and they will not have a chance to turn over.

And this is the so-called three kings.

At the same time, among the various forces in the imperial court, King Su's side is the weakest side, which means that Wang Yu's side is also the weakest side.

Therefore, while the relatively weak parties unite with each other to fight against the most powerful party, as the weakest party, they also have to improve their own strength.

Otherwise, once they join hands and kill the strongest party, the next thing to do is to devour each other by themselves, and the most likely to be devoured first is the weakest party.

Therefore, this is the importance of attacking Hebei at this stage.

"Mr. must have known that Yu suffered heavy losses in the battle with the general of the town army. It is not easy to attack Hebei!"

Attacking Hebei requires solid soldiers and horses.Otherwise, even if it can be defeated, it will not have enough ability to occupy it.Forced occupation, but unable to have enough troops to garrison, will only leave hidden dangers for yourself.

After that defeat, it was clear that Wang Yu had lost this capital.

"The general knows the Cao Gang!" Of course, Guan Zhong had already thought of a countermeasure for the predicament Wang Yu was facing now.

"Cao Gang!" Just after mentioning this name that had disappeared for nearly 200 years, Wang Yu's heart seemed to be pushed open by a skylight!
The name Caobang, as the name suggests, is related to water transportation.This organization once controlled more than 10% of the river transportation in Dacang. At its peak, it had tens of thousands of strong men.To be more precise, the gang had 70 members at its peak.

The members of the Cao Gang have a single composition, mainly young and middle-aged male boatmen who are proletarian, and also absorbed some bottom-level scholars.

Moreover, this gang is well-organized, with brutal rules, family laws, and the loyalty of the rivers and lakes to maintain the seriousness of the system.

Even, it has developed to the level of paramilitary.The semaphore, code words and gang rules show the paramilitary deployment of the Cao Gang.

If such a gang is placed in the court of any party, I am afraid it can become a serious problem for the confidant.

However, even if it is possible to detect that this organization has developed into a serious problem, it must not be taken lightly, otherwise, once these tens of thousands of people start a rebellion, it will be wiped out in the end. In every way, it was also a huge hit.

Therefore, in the eyes of Emperor Da Cang at that time, it was absolutely impossible to be hard, and he could only find a way to kill people with soft knives.

And it is precisely based on this, under the circumstance that the Caogang has already controlled a large number of river transportation, the court decisively opened up the sea transportation, and used this to impact the role of the Caogang.

However, as soon as the shipping opens, the interests of the Cao Gang will naturally be affected.At that time, since Da Cang had decided to kill people with a soft knife and boiled frogs in warm water to solve the problem of the Cao Gang, in order to temporarily stabilize the Cao Gang, he simply beat them with a stick and gave them a sweet date. Using official position and power to confuse the eyes of some people.

Even though its own interests have been impacted, Caojun never thought of doing anything irrational because of it.Although the Cao Gang has hundreds of thousands of strong men, once there is chaos, it will definitely be a huge trouble for Da Cang.

Yes, the forbidden army, frontier army, government army, and Cao Gang can cause great trouble to Da Cang, but they must be suppressed in the end.Unless they were forced into a situation where they could no longer retreat, they would never have the courage to openly rebel against the imperial court.

What's more, for such a major gang, the internal forces are complex and mixed, and even if some people want to go crazy, it depends on whether others can go crazy with them!
Therefore, the court has given them a sweet date, and these people must settle down.

After that, the court spent two generations of emperors for decades, using various complex relationships within the Cao Gang to create contradictions and thread the needle.

And the final result is that the Cao Gang, which once made the imperial court extremely fearful and once developed to its peak, collapsed overnight.

More than half of the high-level losses were lost, and most of the remaining half went to the imperial court, and eventually evolved into today's officials.

And only the last few have also split into countless small forces. They can only drink a sip of soup behind the official water, and it is difficult to form a monopoly on the transportation of water in the cang, let alone It reproduced the grand occasion of the peak period of the Cao Gang that day.

"Seven Jiao Gang!" Wang Yu slowly spit out a name!
Although Guan Zhong mentioned the Cao Gang, what he wanted to say was not the Cao Gang itself.Even if there are a lot of them that have been passed down to this day, apart from the incense love that can barely be hung, there is no longer any relationship.

The reason why Guan Zhong mentioned the Cao Gang was to provide Wang Yu with an idea.

At that time, the remnants of the Cao Gang dispersed into countless forces. Today, after such a long time, some have dissipated in the long river of history, and some have transformed into today. In addition to the river transport, most of them have also begun to involve relevant river surfaces. Other businesses on the company have also evolved into some of the gangs they are today.

Among these forces, the Seven Flood Dragon Gang is a fairly typical example.

Henan Road and Hebei Road, just by hearing the name, you know that there is a big river separating the north and the south, and here is the main scope of activities of the Qijiao Gang, and it is also the clear road that Guan Zhong pointed out to Wang Yu.

The Qijiao Gang is not a big Jianghu sect between Henan Dao and Hebei Dao, and the strongest of the seven gang leaders is only a congenital peak. However, in terms of quantity and quality, this gang can be called Terrifying, with nearly [-] gang members.

In addition to gangs of this nature, it is quite possible to develop a gang to such a size in terms of numbers!
And if the Seven Flood Dragons can be brought under his command, it can indeed help Wang Yu solve his current problems to a great extent.
