Chapter 837: Dowry
(Jiang Xu's son should be Jiang Feng's great-grandson. I was so confused that I misunderstood my seniority. I'm sorry, I slapped twice in the face!)
After Yun Zhao decided to launch the southern expedition within the year, the plain outside looked as calm as ever, but the waves were surging in secret. From the beginning of this year, the major military workshops in the north, which had almost no orders, suddenly took it.
A large number of orders were arrived, and the time required was urgent. Fortunately, the bosses of these military workshops knew that the Northern Army's southern expedition was a foregone conclusion. Although there were no orders this year, production has not stopped. The boss
We made their own money, and the large number of armours produced filled the warehouse. After receiving the order, we immediately sent trucks of current armours to the designated army. As for the wage bosses, the wife of Zhenbeiwang was tacitly aware of it.
The big dowry is coming all the way to Xingling, how come there is no money
Even so, the production of each workshop is still rushing to work at night. Judging from the actions of the army this time, I am afraid that there will be a big war.
Wangjiangwan Shipyard, more than a dozen five-masted warships that have completed the main project have suddenly received a notice that they will not install weapons for the warships for the time being, but will use them as transport ships. Cangjiang has been completely controlled by the Navy of the Northern Army, and there are two
More than ten fully armed warships are enough to escort. Cao Xinyu knows exactly what the remaining ships do. He is going to cross the river to fight. Unlike other departments that will have large-scale military operations, Cao Xinyu
Yun Zhao has already notified the location to be landed in advance. The army landed there, and that will be the focus of the attack of the Northern Army...
The navy had three giants, Ji Wuliang died in battle. Ma You is now a bandit in the Malan Mountains, enjoying robbing Xie Shilin. The team of three thousand people sometimes became broken into pieces, and sometimes several stocks were integrated into one, and in the Malan Mountains, they were elusive.
, Looking at it in the east, suddenly in the west, Xie Zhao, who was in Yuzhou, was very troubled. The only thing he could do was to send heavy troops to guard all major intersections and strive to ensure that the major traffic roads and prefectures and counties were not attacked or disturbed, as for the others
The place was not enough to care about it. Anyway, the other party did not have the strength to occupy a place for a long time. He went down the mountain secretly and robbed him and left.
Xie Zhao also racked his brains and carefully designed the trap to attract horse friends to the trap, but he worked hard every time and almost shot himself in the foot twice. He once made Xie Zhao think of his own.
There must be annihilation in the team, and the Xie family army is definitely not suspicious. The local officials and civilians in Yuzhou suffered a lot. For a moment, Xie Zhao was complaining in Yuzhou. The officials were trembling, and the people dared not speak out.
.
But after July, he was active in Malan Mountain for more than half a year, which made Xie Zhao's incomprehensible Northern Expedition Army suddenly disappeared. When Xie Zhao was worried about the possible whereabouts of this army, Ma You
Already sitting on Cao Xinyu's five-masted warship with a smile, he returned all the way toward the Wangjiangwan Navy Base. The strategic arrangements of the North Mansion have undergone certain changes, and Ma You's army will have other uses. For more than half a year, he
The life of the savages in the mountains has brought the strength of these navy marines to a new level.
In fact, when these troops were wrapped in vines, hung with leaves, and were covered in mess on their faces, they could not tell who was who was the one who was coming out of the dense forest, the officers and soldiers of the navy fleet headed by Cao Xinyu were all
They were shocked. If they hadn't been holding the flag of the Northern Expedition Army, they would have thought it was a group of savages coming.
Ma You was also proud. He knew very clearly that he had brought out a unit that was different from other Northern Expedition Armys. This unit did not require too many people, but it must be able to capture tigers when going up the mountain and subdue when going down the sea.
The best of dragons, such a unit, comes and goes like the wind, and specializes in hitting the enemy's fatal holes. With a very small number of people, it can restrain a large number of enemy troops, and at the same time, it can also perform some difficult tasks that require one blow.
When the prince saw such a unit, he would be happy. Maybe he would expand the scale and form a few similar units. Then he would be the natural choice. He has become the founder of this special unit.
.
Since joining the army, I have dreamed of becoming a famous general in history and has been famous. However, it is too difficult to make a comeback in the army of famous generals. I can find this opportunity in the cracks. This is God
If you can't grasp your compassion for yourself, you're so sorry for yourself.
While drinking and thinking about his bright future, Ma You only felt that he was about to float up.
Friend Ma was immersed in happiness, and at the same time, Xingling was also immersed in excitement, because a news that had been circulating for a long time was finally confirmed today.
Their wife of the King of Zhenbei, the Mongolian Princess Yardan, will marry with a huge dowry. I heard that the dowry was completely astronomical, because after hearing the amount of the dowry, the respected Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he was
He fainted on the ground with excitement. If the King of Zhenbei had not responded quickly and rescued in time, he would have to be buried before holding a wedding for King of Zhenbei.
Of course, some people immediately raised questions. The dowry brought by the Mongolian princess was the private property of the Prince of Zhenbei. What did it have to do with the Minister of Revenue? How could he fainted in excitement?
The questioner was immediately rolled his eyes from the people around him.
"You idiot!"
"Don't you know that our prince has always put the north, the people, and money as dirt?"
"Don't you know that the prince has donated all the gifts given to him by the wedding to the Ministry of Revenue for free. If it weren't for the money, our county magistrate would have to drink porridge every meal, and I saw it with my own eyes
That day, the county magistrate happily took the silver to the rice shop to clear the bill and bought white rice."
"This time I should understand why Lord Ma fainted because the prince said that as soon as the dowry arrived, he would immediately give it to the Ministry of Revenue as a public service."
"But this money is the dowry of the Mengren Princess, so the prince should have no right to deal with it, right?" someone asked again.
"Tsk!" Everyone looked at the guy who asked in contempt, "Who are our princesses? They are the stars in the sky and descending to earth. The princesses, don't they listen to the princesses, they are his god."
"I heard that the Mengren Princess is also a person who is very wise. If it weren't for her, we would have the chance to fight against the Mengren!"
"That's right."
Everyone was crowded on the street, staring at the road leading to the city gate, because several groups of messengers had arrived today, and each group reported the itinerary of these convoys transporting dowry.
Xingling was almost empty, and all rushed to the main road. Xingling Mansion had no choice but to send a limited number of yamen runners to the streets to maintain order. These yamen runners were originally used to accommodate some soldiers who were injured and could not fight again, so as to Xingling Mansion
The public security system is nothing to do with me, and they all look white and fat, but now they are so tired that they finally asked the Prince's Mansion and mobilized a group of troops to stand guard along the street. Only then did they finally recover
Some order.
At about noon, an excited noise came from afar, "Here, come!" The sound waves from far to near, and everyone stretched their necks desperately, thinking about seeing the strange ones. .
The sound of horse hooves knocked on the pavement paved with bluestone slabs. The first thing that caught my eye was the Yumen Pass garrison attacking Guangchang Camp. This was the 1,000 cavalry sent by Han Xiao to escort them from Yumen Pass to Xingling. .The people of Xingling were not interested in them, because the horses and horses of these cavalry were not very good. Now the people of Xingling were very vicious. They had never seen any kind of strong army. The big tent soldiers, the cavalry battalions of the Northern Army, are those cavalry really called cavalry! Everyone just looked at these guys who blocked their eyes and walked by quickly. The cavalry of Guangchang Camp was welcomed by such a warm road for the first time. They were extremely proud, and they even deliberately lowered their horse speed, trying hard to rank the side-by-side war horses on a horizontal line and make their hooves synchronize.
After finally passing these cavalrymen, everyone finally saw carriages filled with iron boxes and sealed. Although the news had been heard before Xingling and everyone was mentally prepared, they looked at hundreds of carriages. The endless fleet still gasped. They all knew what was in the box, which was white silver, shiny gold, and jewels that had been counted. Ah! Everyone stared at the carriage and watched them pass by, each carriage with red satin tied on it.
The convoy went straight to the Zhenbei Palace. Since it was Yaerdan's dowry, he had to go to Zhenbei Palace to make a move to show that the princess' dowry had been delivered!
The convoy stopped outside the gate of Zhenbei Wangfu. Before entering the inner city, the cavalry of Guangchang Camp had already taken a detour to the military camp in the outer city. Yun Zhao's personal barracks dispatched thousands of cavalry to Wu Fan took the lead and met the convoy, becoming the vanguard for it, and welcomed them all the way outside the Zhenbei Palace.
He turned over and dismounted and strode into Zhenbei Palace. After a cup of tea, he strode out again, turned over the horse, shouted, and the entire convoy turned and headed towards the Ministry of Revenue.
Seeing this huge convoy as rumored, it did not enter the Zhenbei Palace, but drove towards the Ministry of Revenue, and burst into sighs.
Such a large amount of property, I just want it if I say no! The Prince of Zhenbei is indeed very human.
This large amount of money is also an astronomical number for each family, even if it is the legendary wealthy families in the south!
Ministry of Revenue, Ma Yigong was wearing a new government official, his face was flushed with excitement, and he rubbed his hands and feet around the lobby. It has been so many years since the Ministry of Revenue's warehouse can finally pile up something in his pocket. If you have money, you won’t feel panic. The warehouse has been cleaned up and you are just waiting for these things to enter the warehouse.
"Sir, sir, the convoy is here, the convoy is here!" An official from the Ministry of Revenue ran in and shouted loudly.
"Hurry up, welcome out, welcome out!" Ma Yigong laughed and ran out.
Looking at Ma Yigong, Wu Fan came up, "Mr. Ma, under the order of the Prince of Zhenbei, I will hand over all the property of Princess Yardan to the Ministry of Revenue. Please take a look!" He looked back at Tuli, and Tuli strode over , and put a thick catalog on both hands.
"Thank you, Prince!" Ma Yigong bowed to Wu Fan.
"Thank you, Princess!" Ma Yigong paid tribute to Tuoli.
