91 Gao Yingyuan's intelligence
This is a good thing. Cao Huachun quickly thanked him, thinking in his heart that it was time for him to focus on cultivating this kid.
Hu Guang watched Cao Huachun retreat and began to worry about money again. The soldiers on the city were all fighting hard. Although he had increased his morale through the promise, he couldn't do it without money. He had to have enough pensions, otherwise he would be fighting for his life. If he didn't have the pension, he would be too sorry for them.
However, the warehouses on the Ministry of Revenue can starve rats to death for many years, and even the treasury does not have much silver. After Jianlu invaded the capital, Emperor Chongzhen had already taken out the treasury. Now there is not much left. You can't let the palace go hungry, right?
By the way, I issued an order to burn the grain in Tongzhou. After Jianlu retreated, I still have to find another way.
The money and food collected from the city's prefectures can only solve the basic cost of refugees and the city's strong people. Although it may be more after all the searches are completed, there will be less than there.
At this time, Hu Guang, as Han Yu thought, was crazy and was thinking about how to make money?
As people who have traveled through time in later generations, they all know that there is a piece of fat that can be eaten, that is, a Shanxi merchant, and they feel at ease when they eat it. But this piece of fat that cannot be eaten by eating it, and it also requires reasonableness and compliance.
Liu Xingzuo was writing materials about the Shanxi merchants' communication, but if he wanted to make others say nothing, he could confiscate the house and make righteous words, he needed more evidence of the Shanxi merchants' communication.
Thinking of this, Hu Guang simply stood up and paced back and forth in the hall, while continuing to think.
The Yongchang Piaohao colluded with Jianlu, but the shopkeeper refused to admit that it was not enough to rely on the replaced clothing and physical evidence, and it would be better if someone had to testify. If I had known this, I would have to find a reason to leave someone to testify. Now that they are in the Jianlu army, the possibility of coming back to testify is actually very low.
If the Yongchang Piao number was only opened by Fan Yongdou, a Shanxi merchant, then based on the evidence provided by Liu Xingzuo and the incident of the shopkeeper letting Oboi run away, it would be fine if he copied it. But according to the known information, there is still Han Du, the former chief minister, standing behind the Yongchang Piao number. Is there anyone else? The East Factory is still verifying, and it is probably still there.
It would be great if the shopkeeper could confess his guilt. Even if there were other officials in the backend of the Piaohao, they could still confiscate their homes, and even hold them accountable and make more money. In this way, they would probably be able to slow down the money matter.
Hu Guang thought of this and entered the chat group to learn about the situation outside.
Unexpectedly, when he first entered the working group, he happened to hear Gao Yingyuan's anxious voice: "Your Majesty did not respond, Lord Wen, are you here?"
"I'm here, what's the matter?" Hu Guang asked quickly when he heard this.
When Gao Yingyuan heard Hu Guang's response, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "Your Majesty, my fifth brother and I are going to follow Oboi to leave the camp and go to the rear. But my second brother was left behind and was digging soil. Maybe he would be sent to attack the city."
"Digging the soil?" Hu Guang asked in confusion when he heard this.
At this time, Liu Xingzuo's icon trembled, and he heard him say, "Your Majesty, Jianlu is going to fill the moat, which will usually be carried out at night. If you fill the moat, you will start siege."
He was the general of Jianlu and was born in a war, so he naturally knew what Jianlu was going to do at first hearing.
When Hu Guang heard this, he suddenly realized that it was this. Just as he was about to speak, Gao Yingyuan said anxiously: "Your Majesty, what should I do if my second brother is sent to attack the city? I have to set out at any time. What can you do to save my second brother?"
This matter has always been a hidden worry. Gao Yingyuan and the other two were just small soldiers in the Jianlu Army. They were sent to fight against the Ming army and had no choice at all.
If it is a field battle, you can still act according to the opportunity. But if this delegation goes to attack the city, there is no choice. They fight against each other with swords and guns, and the city is fighting to the death. The rain of rolling wood, stones, arrows and rains do not have the ability to automatically identify the enemy and us, and they may die at the city.
Hu Guang frowned when he heard this. It was unlikely that Chen Er would escape in the Jianlu Army even if he wanted to escape at the last minute. What should I do?
At this moment, Liu Xingzuo's icon shook again, and he only heard him say, "Your Majesty can order Chen Baihu to attack the city and kill him dead in the dead corners of the city. When the war is over, then hang it on the top of the city."
As expected to be rich in experience behind enemy lines, Liu Xingzuo immediately thought of a solution, which is not bad! Hu Guang was very happy when he heard this, and immediately praised with a hint of excitement: "Yes, as Liu Qing said, Gao Baihu will convey it to Chen Baihu as soon as possible."
"Okay, OK, I'll be there!" Gao Yingyuan's voice also had a hint of excitement, and he responded repeatedly.
Although this strategy is very risky, it can at least have hope of survival. Moreover, for this environment, this is the best solution, and Gao Yingyuan has no reason to be unhappy.
Hu Guang is not the kind of person who can use it if he can, and ignore it if he can't. He is naturally happy to solve Chen Er's problem.
Suddenly, he felt aroused that he was regretting that Gao Yingyuan and the others would not come back in a short time. So, if Chen Er did not die, wouldn’t he come back and could confront the shopkeeper? With the criminals in the prison of the Ministry of Justice and the criminals who guarded the city gate, they were not afraid that the shopkeeper would deny it!
As soon as this matter was linked, Hu Guang was even more excited. It would be the best if it could be so smooth. Now it depends on whether Chen Er is lucky!
Just as he was thinking, he heard Gao Yingyuan's voice again: "Your Majesty, I'm leaving. When I met my second brother just now, he said that he saw the infantry escort a dozen ladder trucks and several boxes of flying hooks. He asked me to remind His Majesty to be careful in defense at the top of the city."
When the Mangourtai tribe attacked the city, they used simple ladders for easy carrying. This ladder truck was a giant. As the name suggests, it was to install the ladders on the car.
This kind of cloud ladder is generally folded in two sections and is fixed with a rope. As long as the rope is untied, the upper part of the cloud ladder will automatically lean towards the head of the city. There is an inverted hook at the top of the ladder, which can hook the city wall and form a cloud ladder of about 45 degrees. Because the chassis is a big cart, it is not easy to fall, and it is very convenient to attack the city.
Based on the memory of Emperor Chongzhen, Hu Guang knew about the ladder truck, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
It is estimated that there are not many craftsmen in the Jianlu army, otherwise more ladder trucks would be built to attack the city. Hu Guang thought, so he asked someone to send an order to Man Gui, reminding Man Gui to pay attention to Jianlu's use of ladder trucks and the flying hook.
After that, Hu Guang switched to the elementary group and clicked Liu Wang's message to listen.
