0313 Wu people are sad
When Shen Zhezi had just spoken of such an issue, a violent shock burst out from the entire Yunhe Hall.
Shen Zhezi took the screen to more intuitively feel the change in the atmosphere in the field. Now his vision is full of fear and surprise. Not only those who are not aware of the matter are frightened by this topic, but even those who have communicated about it earlier are full of restlessness. Unexpectedly, Shen Zhezi dared to put such a sensitive topic out for public discussion.
Shen Zhezi had long expected everyone's reaction. The surprise and panic of these people at the moment may not be directed at the issue itself, but did not expect that he would raise such an issue here.
There is no doubt that Kuaiji Fenzhou is a political event with great influence. Although it is a fashion to discuss state affairs and criticize Taiwanese officials, this specific political plot should be a secret room plan, and people are still unaccustomed to discussing it publicly.
Moreover, for many families, they joined the Commercial Alliance just because the Commercial Alliance can bring considerable profits and they never want to get involved in any cruel political struggles and infighting. Therefore, when they heard about Shen Zhezi's issue, they could hardly help but run wildly and escape from here.
In fact, Shen Zhezi didn't want to enlighten the political nature of the Business Alliance too early, because it is an extremely long process for a group to develop its own clear political intentions from its completion to its growth and then to put it into struggle.
For example, the head of the Beifu Army in history, its predecessor, Jingkou refugee commander group was accompanied by the founding of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and had extremely powerful strength and vitality. However, after hundreds of years of brewing, it finally completed the transformation from the army to the king of the country in Liu Yu. In this process, whether it was the refugee commander Su Jun or the later commander of the Beifu Army, Liu Laozhi, did not form a clear strong political intention to replace the court.
The most regrettable thing is undoubtedly Liu Laozhi. The military power he possesses and the historical opportunities he faces are relatively superior to Liu Yu. However, because of the blurred political intentions, he always wanders among the political forces of all parties. When he finally decided to rebel, he was betrayal of his relatives, such as the more famous Le'an Gao family, who all turned to the enemy country.
Yinjue Shang League has great benefits, far better than the ones produced by Xiatianmu, which is the biggest reason why Shang League can attract people to join. So so far, although Shang League has become increasingly large, its significance is mainly reflected in profitability, and its political tendency is not obvious. Participants have any political intentions, and they all have their own factions and positions, and they will not seek help from Shang League.
For example, Shen Zhezi arrived at Jingkou a few days ago, and even after many visitors came, these people either resigned from their posts and fled to reinstate their posts, or Wuzhong hoped to find a position for him in Taiwan because they were both fellow villagers and the Business Alliance. They did not have political needs, but were not used to discussing this need within the Business Alliance.
But if a group is not political, its structure will be loose and cohesive.
For example, Qingxu Qiaomen, they were formed naturally by the village party and had the foundation of Yuefu. When the Wang family of Langya was powerful and willing to take on their responsibilities, during the time when the king and Ma shared the world, Qingxu Qiaomen was the most important force in the current situation. However, with Wang Dun's failure, Wang Dao was timid and afraid to take responsibility. Qingxu Qiaomen was already beginning to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye, because there was no unified political goal.
Now that the Empress Dowager and the King of Langya are in their hands, it was impossible before and it was difficult to do it later. So after thinking about it over and over again, Shen Zhezi decided to integrate the business alliance and divide the Yangzhou affairs through the power of the business alliance, which also allows people to see the political energy that the business alliance has.
After everyone's surprise was weakened, Shen Zhezi signaled the servant to knock on the bronze chime standing beside the lectern, and then continued to speak: "This proposal is slightly beyond the ritual. You may not force it if you want to hear the details or do not want to hear it. Open the fence for a quarter of an hour, and those who do not want to hear it should leave quickly."
As he finished speaking, several people in the hall stood up in fear, but looking at the others around him, although they were panic and worried, they were also curious. Chen Ke and the elders above sat upright and stood there motionless. Obviously, this proposal had been recognized by them.
For a moment, these people didn't know whether they should leave. They did not want to join this kind of political struggle, but they were afraid that this proposal would be passed after leaving. Unless they left the Shang League, it would be difficult to maintain their innocence. Moreover, they were also curious about what kind of rhetoric to convince everyone. After all, there would definitely be many considerations that could not be made public for such matters.
Shen Zhezi sat on the lecture, watching many people get up and sit down. Some people have even walked out of the hall, but they come back with a tangled look on their faces. It was not until a quarter of an hour later that the bamboo fence fell again and no one left.
When he arrived here, Shen Zhezi felt relieved. No matter whether he passed the proposal or not, at least the purpose of this time was to complete it halfway, that is, everyone had already acquiesced to him discussing a topic with such a strong political meaning in the Business Alliance. Although the Shen family dominates the Business Alliance, it cannot create a one-man show. When the strength is not available, forcing dictatorship is to force people to confront each other and establish many opponents that they did not need to face.
Therefore, even if the matter of Yangzhou is determined to be settled, Shen Zhezi still needs to discuss it, give these people respect and let them feel their own sense of existence.
After everyone sat down, Shen Zhezi signaled people to set up wooden boards and posted the various data briefs he prepared. After the two large wooden boxes were empty, the remaining two boxes were pushed directly in front of the seat, containing a brief version of the data, which were distributed one by one by the Shen family servant for everyone to circulate.
At this time, Shen Zhezi walked to the first wooden board and said, "This is the old story of the three years of Tai'an. The rioter Shi Bing broke through Yangzhou and caused trouble to the three Wus. In order to eliminate the rebels, each of the Wu families brought in a severity and three families. My family was fortunate to live in it. The people of Wu defended their land and protected their hometowns, fought heroically, and their souls were forever refreshed!"
As he said that, Shen Zhezi gave a tribute to the martyrs of Wuzhong who died in his territory. Although this happened more than 20 years ago, many of them here experienced it personally. It was soon reminiscent of Shen Zhezi, and then remembered the years of bloody battles and heroic defense.
Then, Shen Zhezi turned around, his face had calmed down, and pointed to the note and said, "This is the disciple of the department I used back then. He was over 700 soldiers, held two thousand swords, lost more than 1,000 wars, and consumed more than 5,000 hu of rice and grain. The land was poor that year, and the next year, he owed eight thousand hu. Human life was deducted for food, and goods were deducted for food, totaling 125,300 hu."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but gasp. Although Wuzhong is rich, it is impossible for every family to have such a huge industry as the Shen family. The loss of turbulence alone exceeded the property of nearly half of the people in the market!
"In the second year of Yongxing, Chen Min was in trouble..."
Shen Zhezi ignored everyone's surprise and began to count the turmoil in Jiangdong from the Shibing Rebellion. He also used the losses of his own and other Wuzhong families in the turmoil as a model to describe the losses suffered by the Wu people in these turmoils. Of course, when talking about the latest Wang Dun Rebellion, because his family was committed to death, the data was not referenceable, but because the information was detailed, there were also references.
With Shen Zhezi's story, the atmosphere in the hall has gradually become suppressed. In the past, they also knew that there would inevitably be losses in war, but when these data were really in front of them, they realized how amazing the losses were. Even if the family had a hundred acres of land and a dozen households, as long as they had not died in the war, they would pay 50,000 hu of grain!
When all the data was finished, Shen Zhezi took a deep breath and then said in a deep voice: "I live in this town for the rest of my life, where the elders live in peace, and where the family temples stand, I have the responsibility to defend the land, and I am unavoidable! But you all, it is shocking! How much blood can we have to shed in Wu Shi!"
Shen Zhezi's shout echoed in the grand venue, and this move directly asked his own heart. Yes, the day before yesterday, today's righteousness, tomorrow's righteousness! When will the world be peaceful, and when will Jiangdong be fine? Some people were complacent about the profits made in the business alliance in recent years, but when did they feel shocking when the price their family paid in these chaos in the past was shocking.
Especially when we think that the rebel army may be raised to suppress the Jiankang military disaster in the coming days, there will be a series of wars and the loss of manpower and material resources. We cannot bear to think deeply. As Shen Zhezi said, how much blood can the people of Wu have to shed?
"The Wu land is so turbulent, and every rebel army is on the rise! Why can't we Wu people have our own military state? We can't have our own soldiers?"
When all the data was explained, Shen Zhezi's conclusion was about to come out. The reason why the people of Wu had to launch a large number of righteous soldiers in times of turmoil was that since the Chinese and Koreans, the court has suppressed the people of Wu more.
The only Kuaiji area in the Three Wus is barely called Fangzhen. Its military households are less than 2,000. Shen Chong is in charge of the military in eastern Zhejiang. He is less than 10,000 county soldiers, and it is the worst military equipment at present, even worse than refugees! Because the county soldiers are still responsible for heavy labor taxes in addition to military service. Therefore, once there is a war, each family must raise uprising troops to ensure that there is nothing wrong in Wu.
"This time, the troubles of Liyang are nothing to do with the people of Wu! I have something to say about this today. Wu is so generous, and I have great righteousness in my heart. I can give up money and food, and I can't afford the armor of the righteous soldiers!"
Speaking of this, Shen Zhezi has drawn a bottom line. Since the court does not allow Wuzhong to have military prefectures, the money and grain that should be transferred should still be transferred, but there will definitely not be rebel soldiers unless the court allows Wuzhong to establish military prefectures and collect them in the name of a regular army.
"Can you guys have me?"
Having said this, Shen Zhezi gave a lecture to calm down, and then gave a bow to everyone.
After he finished speaking, no one spoke in the hall for a long time, and only he could hear the sound of heavy breathing mixed together, which seemed to be rhythmic. After a while, one person slowly stood up and said to everyone: "There were seven sons in the family, two of Shi Ni and three of Chen Ni. As for now, I am still left. The blood is still intense. This time, I am willing to destroy my family and donate the national disaster. If anyone seeks fame and seeks fame, he will die with you!"
