Chapter 345: Cornered

When the war broke out in the north, Kong Donglai, Nanyang County, looked miserable and was powerless to face reality.

"How could I have today!" Kong Donglai roared, but no one could answer.

The State of Jin completely pulled his hands and no longer cared about Nanyang County. Then, Dongyuan County had no moral integrity and directly defected to Anyang unconditionally; Yuan Yong, an evergreen tree in politics, also became Anyang's think tank!

Then, Anyang announced that it would not accept the surrender of Nanyang County and labeled Nanyang County as a "traitor". Now, mercenary groups, business companies, etc. from Anyang are pouring into Nanyang County like greedy jackals.

"New news comes from Anyang!" A personal soldier sent a newspaper.

Kong Donglai took it and saw the title "Wish Anyang and Jin's friendship to last forever". It was a very high-end title, and the content was: Thanks to Jin for not interfering in the affairs of Daxia. As a witness to friendship, the 200,000 prisoners of Jin from Dongyuan County have been released unconditionally.

Seeing this news, Kong Donglai's eyes turned dark!

It turned out that when the Jin State was defeated, about 450,000 people were captured, and there were 250,000 people in Nanyang County, which had been rescued by Jin State; but there were still 200,000 prisoners in Dongyuan County. Now, after Dongyuan County surrendered to Anyang, Anyang still released these prisoners unconditionally.

Anyang should be very beautiful to do this. First, after Anyang defeated, he said that Anyang did not want the prisoners of Jin and left all the prisoners of Jin to Nanyang County and Dongyuan County. After Dongyuan County was unconditionally incorporated into Anyang, the prisoners belonging to Dongyuan County also became Anyang.

But Anyang had already said that he would not want the prisoners of Jin State, so Li Xian kept his promise very much, and these prisoners were released unconditionally.

Second, Anyang no longer needs to use these 200,000 prisoners to coerce Jin. Since prisoners cannot bring benefits to Anyang, it is better to release them just in exchange for reputation.

Third, releasing prisoners will help improve the relationship between Anyang and Jin. Especially after Dongyuan County surrendered to Anyang, Anyang and Jin bordered directly, and the relationship was too tense.

Now there is face and relationship between Jin and Anyang, and the relationship is unprecedentedly harmonious - well, the first contact between Anyang and Jin was war.

But no matter what, Jin State won the petition to Tao - not interfering in Nanyang County, Anyang responded to Li - unconditionally released all prisoners, which established a good foundation for future exchanges between the two sides.

In this way, Nanyang County, which is sandwiched between Anyang and Jin, is completely dangerous.

"what to do?"

"Or..." Guo Hongyan gasped for a few breaths, "Let's cooperate with Songzhou County and Guangling County. Now Xiao State, Tang State, and Anyang have appeared one after another in the north, and the general situation is settled.

Only in the south, there are our Nanyang County, Songzhou County and Guangling County, which have achieved nothing.

The Qi State in the west is ready to move again and always wants to embezzle Guangling County.

Now, only by uniting together can we gain room for development.

And things should be fast, otherwise, when Xiao, Tang and Anyang consolidate their existing foundations, it is the moment of our demise!”

Kong Donglai gritted his teeth, obviously making great decisions; he didn't speak around him, and was waiting for Kong Donglai to make his decisions. In fact, until now, Kong Donglai's uncle, Kong Xiang, was still controlled by the Wang family.

At least 30% of the reason why Nanyang County can be today is attributed to Guangling County and Wang family. Because without Kong Xiang, the political helmsman, Nanyang County lacks some vision, political vision and guidance in many things.

After thinking for a long time, Kong Donglai had to sigh. There was really no better way now; either wait for death or join forces with Guangling County and Songzhou County. To be honest, Guangling County and Songzhou County were not seen by Kong Dong, at least in the past.

The Wang family relied on their daughter to take office, and relying on Concubine Hua to charm the emperor, he gained his current status; while Gao Bin, when he attacked Anyang, he retreated without fighting, and did not even notify his comrades in Nanyang County; finally he put a knife behind his back. It can be said that Gao Bin "mastered his contributions" when Nanyang County was today.

If Gao Bin had sent the message at that time and let Nanyang County be prepared, Nanyang County would never have been defeated like this. It was in that war that the foundation of Nanyang County was shaken. A small half of the elite soldiers were killed in battle, the confidence of the soldiers was shaken, and the generals and ministers were in harmony; coupled with the continuous mistakes in the later period, Nanyang County finally pushed Nanyang County into an abyss that would never be restored.

But now, we can only join forces with Guangling County and Songzhou County.

"This time, I'll go to Guangling County to negotiate in person!" Kong Donglai coldly rejected Guo Hongyan's volunteering and self-recommendation. Recently, Guo Hongyan made two moves, all of them ended in failure; therefore, Guo Hongyan was no longer trusted by Kong Donglai.

Kong Donglai was already a little crazy and unreasonable at this moment.

Guo Hongyan pursed her lips and retreated, and suddenly looked at Nangong Zhi, and saw bitterness and confusion in each other's eyes. Needless to say, confusion is also very simple - this is the fairyland, no matter what she does, everyone has an ultimate pursuit, that is, ascend to the sun.

Now, the development of Nanyang County and Kong Donglai's performance have made Guo Hongyan and Nangong Zhi confused.

Kong Donglai didn't care, and he didn't pay attention: "(Kong) Yingzhi, please take care of your family, I'll go to Guangling County in person."

…………

When Kong Donglai had no choice to unite with his enemies and even his enemies, Cai State in the north was also having a discussion.

Perhaps it was God bless Cai Kingdom (who knows). After entering Sanchuan, Emperor Cai Kingdom completely controlled the place; the hard work over the years has made it the last base for Cai Kingdom.

In the simple court, Huang Fu ranked first on the left, Ye Dashen and Ye Weirong ranked first on the right, and two people guarded the Emperor Cai, one on the left and one on the right. Emperor Cai, sitting on the temporary throne, swept the more than 20 officials who had been screened with cold eyes.

After experiencing such a disaster, the Emperor of Cai seemed to have awakened, like a awakened tiger. As the eyes passed, officials actually lowered their eyes and did not dare to look directly.

After looking around for a long time, Emperor Cai finally spoke: "Prime Minister (Huang Fu) is right, Cai needs a transformation. After this disaster, our country of Cai seems to be weak, but it is even more united, which is much stronger than before. It is valuable because of industry and commerce. We not only have rich wealth, but also have a solid foundation.

In the future, we will learn from Anyang and develop the country through industry and commerce. We will strengthen our country with industry, arm our soldiers, make a fortune with business, and enrich the national treasury!"

"Your Majesty's wise!" Huang Fu shouted, as if he was so excited to see the immortal descending to earth.

Emperor Cai looked at Huang Fu and suddenly laughed, but the smile was a bit meaningful, "The Prime Minister, form a Ministry of Justice to learn from Anyang. Anyang's legal collection is for public sale and can be purchased for reference."

Huang Fu was stunned and felt annoyed. Although Anyang encouraged industry and commerce, officials must not engage in industry and commerce. In Anyang's terms, officials are referees, and referees cannot participate in specific matters.

Then, if the laws of Anyang are adopted, Huang Fu cannot be an official while doing business and play the good game of "integration of official and business".

Anyang's success and great success proved the correctness and authority of Anyang's laws, so... Huang Fu had no way to refute it.

However, without waiting for Huang Fu to react and stop him, some officials stood up, "Your Majesty, Anyang has a verbal saying, "When you are doing business, you recognize money but not people." As long as you spend 50,000 taels of gold, Anyang can send senior judicial officials to guide our country to establish a new judicial system. If you spend another 50,000 taels of gold, Anyang can help us plan a basic direction of industrial and commercial development. This is clearly marked in Anyang.

We are now going to race against time and directly hiring the judicial team in Anyang can allow us to establish a new political system in the shortest time and establish an industrial system as soon as possible.

Even if you spend 10,000 taels of gold, Anyang can help us train ten officials in a targeted manner.

I dare to ask Your Majesty to spend a certain price to establish Cai Guoxin's new political system as soon as possible. And Anyang's commercial credibility is temporarily trustworthy."

I didn't expect that this gave Huang Fu an excuse. "Zhu Chongde, do you have a commercial relationship with Anyang? We just finished fighting with Anyang, and Anyang just killed millions of our people. We turned around and asked Anyang for help. What did you ask the people to think? What did you ask the officials to see? How did you ask the soldiers who fought bloodyly, deal with themselves? Ah! You said!"

Don’t say that Huang Fu’s words make sense!

Zhu Chongde stood proudly under Huang Fu's pressure and anger, and Huang Fu's eyes, "Your Majesty, although we have a war with Anyang, Anyang's development and encouragement for business are beyond imagination."

After saying that, Zhu Chongde turned to Huang Fu, "Prime Minister, do you know that the reason why General Ye Weirong was able to come in advance this time was that the merchants from Anyang helped convey the message.

It was Anyang's businessman who helped pass the news to Marshal Ye, so Marshal Ye could control Sanchuan in advance and rescue His Majesty at the last moment."

Wow... As soon as these words came out, Cai Guo’s small court exploded.

Huang Fu was simply incredible: "The businessmen in Anyang actually helped us deliver messages? Isn't it said that the businessmen in Anyang are very protective of Anyang's interests?"

Zhu Chongde seemed to have some recollections in his eyes: "I asked this question too. As a result, the businessman in Anyang told me that taking good care of business is the greatest protection of Anyang's interests. Business is the basic rule of Anyang's business.

Moreover, it is relatively simple to convey information. If the merchants in Anyang do not do it, others will do it; instead of letting others do it, Anyang will do it yourself.

I hired Anyang merchants to help convey the message at noon yesterday; as a result, the news was delivered to Marshal Ye in the evening yesterday. Marshal Ye used the Anyang merchants to convey information and orders, so that he could quickly control Sanchuan and mobilize the army, etc.

Among them, we paid a total of 70,000 taels of gold for information transmission, but we won us at least three days."
