The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 66
On the third day, the entire Yangguan Fort was successfully evacuated, and the fleet was ready to go, waiting for Tang Qing'an's order.

Everyone was beaming, and they talked about how much money they made on this trip, and they didn't know how much they could share.

Tang Qing Ancong didn't hear anything, didn't reveal any thoughts, just stood quietly at the bow of the boat, the people around him were busy and didn't disturb the adults.

"My lord, everything is ready."

Finally, a soldier stepped forward to report.

A sigh.

Tang Qing'an took one last look in the direction of Fuzhouwei, and looked away.

"Set off."

Mr. never came back.

The fleet full of cargo finally left the coast and returned to Changxing Island.

This trip not only brought back [-] shi of grain, tens of thousands of taels of silver, and countless jewelry objects.

More importantly, there are tools such as cattle, horses, ironware and so on.

The barbarians did not fully trust the troops sent by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the supplies of the entire Fuzhou Guard were collected in Yangguanbao.

Iron is also needed by the barbarians, re-melting armor for weapons.These materials are the blood and sweat of the people of Fuzhouwei.

Fuzhou Guard is one of the four guards in the southern part of Liao Zuo, but it was a little late. I heard that the former fan had only transported tens of thousands of stones of supplies to Shenyang.

Fortunately, this time has come. If it wasn't for the lack of vehicles in the hands of the barbarians, they wouldn't have left so many supplies to make it cheaper for themselves.

The fleet returned to Changxing Island in a mighty manner, and everyone was stunned by the steady stream of supplies on board.

Feng Shengzhi was the happiest, happier than the sergeants who returned with full load.He hurriedly organized people to count the cattle, mules, ironware, and agricultural tools.

Gold and silver touch people's hearts, and the soldiers cannot be idle.

Tang Qing'an divided the fleet into three and sent the fleet to Beixinkou, Nanxinkou, Shiheyi and other places to collect refugees.

At the same time, he wrote a good news, sent a ship to Jinzhou to announce the good news, and asked for supplies.

"Zhou Ji, if Mr. Jinglue asks you how much food we got, how are you going to answer?"

Zhou Ji was baffled, raised his head and glanced at Tang Qing'an's face, and suddenly understood.

"Where are the supplies in Yangguanbao? The supplies are all in Fuzhouwei. There are thousands of defenders in Fuzhouwei. We can't eat them."

"Well, you go."

Tang Qing'an nodded.

Everyone has their own uses, so Zhou Ji was given the important task of delivering the good news.

Zhou Ji took the small boat with the military households of Donghai Fort, with a sigh on his face.

Adults are really dark.

Supplies are still not enough.

Tang Qing'an shook his head.

It is enough now, but it will definitely not be enough in the future. The child who can cry has milk, and there is someone in his court, so of course he has to cry hard.

Mao Wenlong established Dongjiang Town.

No one in the court spoke for him, and the military pay and food were not enough all the year round. He was so anxious that he smuggled everywhere.

Smuggling can make money, but it cannot be exchanged for food.

There is also a shortage of food in Dazhou, but there are hundreds of millions of people and billions of fields, and they can always be squeezed out.

Brief history of Liaodong economics.

Also worried about supplies.

In the past, all the materials in Liaodong were backlogged in Shenyang, but now they are all gone, and the court needs to supply them again.

The court complained.

But they had to supply, so they could only try their best to increase the levy, and the internal treasury was emptied.

And the Liaodong Jiedu envoy was dissatisfied with himself, and even impeached himself for fear of the enemy.

When he was angry, a member ran in, his face was full of joy.

"Good news, good news."

"The Donghai camp has made new achievements again. This time, unlike last time, it actually sent 200 heads. I have checked and it is basically true."

The Great Zhou Dynasty inherited the Ming system, and military merits were also counted by the head.

But in these years of successive defeats, no one can send their heads back. Even if they report how many people have been killed, it is only a verbal achievement.

The 200 head count this time is really the first real credit for Liaodong in so many years.

Shi Nai was overjoyed, and hurriedly summoned the person who delivered the good news, and he wanted to ask clearly.

If there is really no problem, it will really help him a lot, whether it is facing the counterattack of the Liaodong Jiedu envoy's impeachment, or the confidence to ask the court for supplies, it will be of great help.

Zhou Ji felt uneasy. When had he ever seen such a big official come in with trembling legs and feet, and he knelt on the ground with a "plop" as soon as he stepped over the threshold.

Kneeling firmly, forgetting the pain in the knee.

"I... subordinate... I..." I was so excited that I didn't know how to address myself.

Shi Nai smiled, and gently asked him to stand up. After asking a lot, he finally understood how the victory came.

"It seems that Tang Qing'an's strategy is indeed very good. In just over a month of sailing, he has sent two good news. What does your Bei Yu have to say?"

The high officials turned out to be so kind, better than those thousands of households in their own family.

Zhou Ji was so moved that he wished he could flatter him on the spot, saying that if the lord had something to entrust to him, he would go through fire and water without hesitation.

After all, he held back, thinking that he was just a small general flag, saying it would only make people laugh.

"Bei Yu Youxin asked me to present it to your lord, and he said that tens of thousands of refugees had been gathered before leaving Liaodong Bay, and I don't know how many people will gather after they leave Liaodong Bay.

Thinking of cultivating fields and acres on the islands, but there is a lack of agricultural tools and utensils, cattle, boats, birds, guns, gunpowder, food and wages..."

Shi Nai nodded, continued to question, and finally let the man go with a few words of relief.

Open Tang Qing'an's letter.

The letter said that after two battles, he was confident that he could recruit hundreds of thousands of refugees, or even millions of refugees.

If it succeeds, tens of thousands of soldiers can be recruited, and a knife can be stabbed in the rear of the barbarians...

Inside and outside the words are how to fight against the barbarians, how to involve the barbarians for Quang Ninh, and how to serve the court.

Shi Nai put down the letter and fell into deep thought.

This son... is quite ambitious.

Did Jia Jing see this chess piece clearly?

……

A letter was sent to the capital in a hurry, and there was also a memorial to the imperial court and a memorial to the impeachment of the Liaodong Jiedushi.

Jia Zhen received a letter from Wu Jinxiao, telling her that she already knew what the master meant, and that she would proceed to sell the fields in Dahei Village.

scolded at his son.

"Now two of the family's ancestral fields have been sold, and there is only one left. You don't know how to make progress with your heart, you only know how to play around, and the family business will be ruined by you sooner or later."

Jia Rong was scolded inexplicably, but she didn't dare to defend herself, and stood obediently with her hands down. Seeing her son's appearance, Jia Zhen was even angrier.

At this moment, the steward said that there was an urgent letter from Liaodong.

Knowing that it was sent by Liaodong Shi Nai, Jia Zhen hurried to the mountain temple and handed the letter to her father.

After Jia Jing opened it, he only glanced at it, but laughed.

"Why is father laughing?"

Jia Jing handed the letter to Jia Zhen, Jia Zhen opened it and took a look, it turned out that it was about Tang Qing'an, and this son had really done meritorious deeds.

"I laughed at Shi Nai."

Jia Zhen didn't understand what her father said, so she read the letter again and couldn't find anything funny.

Seeing his son's stupid look, Jia Jing sighed inwardly.
