Chapter 1388 The Revolution Rising

Zhao Kai was completely stunned and turned his head to look at the wife Wu Meiniang beside him, but found that Wu Meiniang was also a little stunned.

That's right, the sudden rebellion resolution passed by JD.com City Council was completely beyond Wu Meiniang's expectations. She originally wanted to use some tricks and cheat, and pass a resolution to transfer the market, and then take the people away first...

Now, the parliament directly passed a resolution to rebel, and it was passed unanimously!

For the sake of the gold, silver and copper mountains in the Song Dynasty Bank, you rebel?

And it was so open and upright that a resolution was passed that it would not recognize the throne of the Song Dynasty officials, and at the same time it would elect a new official.

This rebellion model is probably unique in the history of rebellion?

But what power do you have to choose officials? The officials in the Song Dynasty voted and elected? Do you think it was the Great Zhou Republic to choose the head of the head of the Great Zhou Republic?

"Ji Kui, do you want to elect King Donghai as the official?" Wu Meiniang asked, "You guys take it seriously?"

"Take it seriously!" Ji Kui gritted his teeth and said, "Now Kaifeng Mansion has been stolen by thieves, and we still have to rob our hard-earned money! Princess, listen, what are the people of Jingdong businessmen shouting?"

"Repay my hard-earned money... to attack the retro thief..."

The roars of the JD mobs came!

In the face of the danger of losing everything, the budding bourgeoisie is also angry.

JD.com businessmen are not as concerned about politics as industrial and commercial citizens in Tianjin. They just want to make a fortune safely and do not care much about who becomes the emperor.

But now the new emperor of the Song Dynasty is going to steal the money they have in the Song Dynasty bank.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents!

Now it is not about cutting off the wealth route, but about stealing everyone from bankruptcy! That is simply a family of people being killed.

All the family is going to be executed, are the promiscuous businessmen still angry?

Besides, JD.com’s profiteers are not ordinary profiteers. Their main body is also a maritime merchant, and they also have their own arms - currently, the Donghai State Navy and Donghai State Land Division have a total of 15,000 people, and there are 36 galley warships!

In addition, Ji Jun, who followed Su Shi from Xuzhou, also had 2,000 people, and of course they were on the side of JD.com.

This is 17,000 naval and land troops! Even if you can't defeat hundreds of thousands of new troops from the Song Dynasty court, you can still fight one.

Wu Meiniang looked at her husband who had been in a state of chaos and had no choice but to grit her teeth, "Well! Since the parliament has passed the resolution, the king can stand up, but he cannot ascend the throne for the time being.

After all, only the support of JD.com is not enough to make the king’s throne…but the king can serve as the governor first!”

"It's okay, just supervise the country..." Ji Kui glanced at Su Shi, and Su Shi said: "King, Princess, Liguo City near Xuzhou also suffered heavy losses because of the gold and silver of the Song Bank. We happened to take the opportunity to advance and pull them into the country.

There are a large number of armored weapons stored in Liguo City, and there are tens of thousands of miners and forging workers, all of whom can fight!”

This is the legendary working-class army!

"Isn't there a new army in Xuzhou City?" Wu Meiniang said, "Is it Tong Guan's Shuofang soldier? Can our people defeat them?"

The navy of JD.com City is fine. In offshore combat, even the Dazhou Navy was not afraid.

But JD Army is hard to say...

"No problem," Su Shi said, "My brother is in Xuzhou, and he will not let Shuofang soldiers leave the city. As long as Shuofang soldiers do not leave the city, Liguo City will fall into our hands."

"How do you take back the gold and silver?" Wu Meiniang asked again.

Cheng Gui, the navy admiral of the Donghai Kingdom, took the question and replied: "Report to the princess, the last general led the boat into Huaihe River and intercepted them in Chuzhou. At the same time, General Ji Commander Lu went south from Xuzhou to block the retreat of the thieves from the thieves. He grabbed the boat and the people, and then went to Jiangnan together!"

Wu Meiniang asked again: "What about after I went to Jiangnan?"

"After going to Jiangnan, I will occupy the Yangtze River." Cheng Gui said, "Our galloping and sand boats are invincible in the Yangtze River. As long as the Yangtze River is in hand, Jiangnan is in hand!

At that time, the markets in the Jiangnan provinces will definitely follow the king and the princess!”

Cheng Gui's words are correct. The key to Jiangnan is the Yangtze River!

Because the Yangtze River is the golden waterway for the transportation of goods and personnel in the south of the Yangtze River, whoever controls the Yangtze River will control the economic lifeline and security defense of the south of the Yangtze River.

With both economy and security in hand, the merchants and landlords in Jiangnan had no choice but to follow them obediently.

Therefore, the sailing and sand boats in JD.com and the navy of 10,000 people are indeed the foundation for Zhao Kai’s establishment in Jiangnan!

"Since that's the case, there is nothing to hesitate!" Wu Meiniang said to Zhao Kai, "King, there is no way out for the matter now.

If you don’t stand up and become the governor, once the people of JD.com disperse, you and I will be captured by Zhao Ding and Zong Ying. Will you still escape to death at that time?"

"Die..." Zhao Kai shook for a moment, but still couldn't make up his mind. He really didn't look like the founding king of the United States of the Eastern Song Dynasty!

Wu Meiniang was decisive and said loudly: "The King of Donghai has agreed! I have planned an imperial edict to promote the reign of the country, and will lead the people to attack the traitors and support the Supreme Emperor to restore the throne!

From now on, the King of Donghai will order all directions in the name of the generals and the great marshal of the world's troops!"

"Long live the country! The princess is thousand years old!" Ji Kui immediately raised his arms and shouted.

"Long live the country! The princess is thousand years old!" Then all the officials shouted.

By the afternoon of that day, the slogan of long live the country had spread throughout Jingdong.com.

The storm, known as the "Revolution of the Thirteen Southeastern Prefectures" by later generations, kicked off!

...

When the "Revolution of the Thirteen Southeast Prefectures and the United People's Revolution" began, Zhao Huan, a Song official in Kaifeng Prefecture, was worried about an amazing report from Hebei.

This a bit overwhelming report came from the Daming Prefecture City surrounded by the Zhou army - Du Chong, the pacifier of Daming Prefecture Road, sent a letter to Ren Huanwanwan, and proposed a way to use water instead of soldiers to break the siege of Daming Prefecture!

It is to dig the Yellow River embankment near Daming Fucheng and use the Yellow River water to flood the Zhou army outside Daming Fucheng... It is of course a good thing to flood the Zhou army.

But what after the flooding?

Where will this flood rush?

Zhao Huan was standing in front of the map platform, looking at the Song Dynasty cities on the map, and he was really reluctant to leave.

"Your Majesty, the Yellow River waterway has either flowed north or south in the past few decades. If it breaks near Daming Mansion, it will probably flow south..."

The person who was analyzing the direction of the water flow after the Yellow River breach was Zhao Mingcheng, the Qingcheng Academy's husband, who is Li Qingzhao's husband. His Qingcheng Academy is also a university, which includes water conservancy disciplines.

The Yellow River is the focus of Qingcheng's hydroconservancy research!

"Nanliu?" Zhao Huan's eyes stopped at Chen Liu on the map, "Will Chen Liu drown?"

"No, Chen Liu is on the west side of Daming Prefecture." Zhao Mingcheng said, "The terrain of the Central Plains is high in the west and low in the east. The Yellow River water will not flow to the high places, so it must go southeast. Most of the time it will rush into Liangshanpo, then take Huangou and Sishui, and flood all the way to Xuzhou."

"Flooded in Xuzhou?" Zhao Huan thought to himself: It's not bad... The third brother's territory is going to be unlucky!

"Your Majesty," Geng Nanzhongdao, the head of the Privy Council, "if the Yellow River flows north and changes the route, it will be difficult for the eastern thieves to transport food and grass to the south.

Moreover, will the Yellow River be fixed for a while? Maybe it will rush around randomly, and the Eastern thieves will have to spend some effort to control the water. They have no time to be enemies with us for the time being. Your Majesty just takes this opportunity to practice retro methods and reorganize the mountains and rivers of the Song Dynasty."

"Can the Eastern thieves cure the Yellow River?" Zhao Huan was a little suspicious.

Zhao Mingcheng said: "Even if it can be cured, it is extremely difficult. After the Yellow River flows north for many years, the riverbed is raised, and it may not be easy to let the Yellow River flow north again. And if the Yellow River flows east into the Ji River, it will also encounter the problem of river silt... If we want to solve it, this project is so big that it may make the Eastern thieves unable to use their troops for more than ten years.

However, after the Yellow River flows south, the Huai River will easily flood, and Huai River is afraid that it will flood frequently.

In addition, the Yellow River will also form a yellow flood zone. The contact between Kaifeng Prefecture and Jingdong East Road will be temporarily interrupted."

Zhao Mingcheng talked about the research results of water conservancy experts at Qingcheng Academy, and it was basically not much different.

Zhao Huan sighed: "If the Eastern thief succeeds, the people will only suffer even more... The two harms are the least, so it's better to flood the water!"

"Your Majesty is wise." Geng Nanzhong hurriedly praised Zhao Huan.

In fact, the attack on the Zhou army by the Yellow River breach was limited, and there were not many Zhou troops besieging Daming Prefecture now. Moreover, they were not all in the southeast of Daming Prefecture, and only a few could be flooded.

But this flooding will have a huge blow to Zhao Kai!

Xuzhou becomes a ze country, and the Huaihe River will flood every year, and the original wealthy land of Xuhai will no longer exist.

Even Huainan will be affected, and it will be a prosperous place every year.

Seeing Zhao Mingcheng leave after saluting, Zhao Huan sighed softly and said to Geng Nanzhong: "When this flooding, the people in the Central Plains should be lost, right?"

"Your Majesty," Geng Nanzhong smiled, "people's hearts are insignificant, otherwise the Eastern thief would not be so arrogant.

Moreover, after the Yellow River seized the Huai River, the two prefectures of Xuhai will no longer be prosperous in the past. If the two prefectures were occupied by the Eastern thieves, the Eastern thieves would be trapped in the Yellow River and must make great efforts to govern them. Wouldn’t the court have the opportunity to recuperate for ten years?”

"The court dug the Yellow River, and the Eastern thieves fell to control the Yellow River..." Zhao Huan just shook his head.

"How did the imperial court dig a river?" Geng Nanzhong said, "It was clearly the Eastern thief who digged the river to destroy Daming Prefecture City!

Moreover, the Eastern thieves can dig the Yellow River for Daming Prefecture, and they will dig the Yellow River again for Kaifeng Prefecture! So when the news that Daming Prefecture was flooded by the Yellow River reached Kaifeng Prefecture, His Majesty had the opportunity to abandon the city and leave."

Zhao Huan couldn't want to go there now! The retro party in the city sang high-profile, and the people of Kaifeng Prefecture were unwilling to run away, and he had to worry about Zhao Ji, so Zhao Kai took the opportunity to seize his throne. So he could only stand firm in Kaifeng Prefecture, but one more day would lead to more risk of being captured.

The Yellow River breaks its mouth and floods Daming and Xuzhou, which is the best excuse for him to run away.
