Chapter 679 Defeat at the front line?

When the Hanshui Exchange was listed, Mu Jing was just a lucky cat, the main character was not him, and his attendance was like giving face, and many people were attracted to the Hanshui Exchange. As for the future development of the exchange, we will follow its natural.

Many things, if not influenced by him, will definitely grow along with the trend, and sometimes they will have the opposite effect.

But when Mujing left from Hanshui Pier, it was still late, it was completely dark.

No problem with the itinerary.

However, he improvised and had a conversation with Sun Hao, which wasted a lot of time.

Since the collapse of Jingping Commercial Bank, there are not many old merchants who can contact him, not to mention the Xu family, they have been in secret contact all the time, but whether it is the Zhang family or the Sun family, they keep a little distance.

He is also willing to keep these merchants at a distance from him. Sometimes, he does not have to be a subordinate in order to take advantage of them, and the mall uses them. He must have more means than these people.

Will talk to Sun Hao.

That was what he wanted to know about Nanyang's current situation, especially Nanyang's economic situation. Even the spies could not give an accurate report on this, but these merchants could get a glimpse of it.

Back at Zhaoming Hall, Mu Jing thought about it, and on the spur of the moment, invited Shi Huzhao, the head of Minghou Fu who was working in the west office of Zhaoming Hall, across the door.

"Kong Ming, I talked to Sun Hao, Nanyang is having a hard time recently!"

Mu Jing said softly: "Especially this year, there is a plague of locusts, and the harvest is serious!"

"I've heard about this, but it's not very serious!"

Hu Zhao said softly.

He had heard about the locust plague in Nanyang this year. Even several counties in Nanxiang were affected by the disaster. The harvest was not very good, but it didn't affect much. There were still some harvests. Even the Nanyang prefect's mansion didn't need Minghou's mansion. Subsidies, this shows that life is passable.

"That's the west. In the east, the situation may be more serious than you think!"

Mu Jing said: "Sun Hao revealed that the price of food is [-]% higher. You can imagine what can cause the price of food to soar!"

The eastern part of Nanyang is rich.

However, in the western part of Nanyang, they are the masters of the Minghou Mansion. The Minghou Mansion has always attached great importance to farming. Nong Cao went to inspect it time and time again, and paid close attention to preventing locust plagues and droughts.

Sometimes the difference lies in defense.

At this time, the gap is far away, and the west is prepared, so even if there is a disaster, there is still some harvest. It can't subsidize the Minghou Mansion, but it doesn't need the Minghou Mansion to subsidize the winter, but the east is different.

"You can see the whole leopard at a glance!"

Hu Zhao's eyes lit up immediately, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not yet the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, and the new grain has just been harvested not long ago. The grain price should have dropped, but it suddenly soared. This is enough to show that Nanyang's failure Seriously!"

"Maybe we can take advantage of this opportunity!" Mu Jing said pointedly.

"use?"

When Hu Zhao heard this, he was a little puzzled, and looked at Mujing: "How do you want to use it?"

"Exchange food for the city!"

Mujing said.

His peeping heart towards Nanyang did not happen overnight.

In Nanyang, he also has some plans.

But now Yuan Shu's momentum is still at its peak, unless he is willing to fight Yuan Shu to the death, otherwise he really can't get Nanyang back.

But he had to make arrangements as soon as possible.

Opportunities are always for those who are prepared.

As long as Yuan Shu dared to give him the slightest chance, he would open his fangs without hesitation and eat Nanyang in one go.

"Impossible, Yuan Shu won't do this kind of thing anymore, he still has Runan and Yuzhou, enough to make Nanyang survive this year!" Hearing this, Hu Zhao retorted instinctively.

"Yuan Shu is indeed impossible, how could he admit defeat to me, but Lei Bo is not sure!"

Mu Jing said in a deep voice: "He is firmly rooted in Nanyang now, and he just wants to have a place. If Nanyang thinks that the food problem is too serious, then he will lose weight in front of Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu may not be willing to send him Put it in Nanyang, and the soldiers under his command also need food!"

Lei Bo is in charge of Nanyang.

Lei Bo is in charge of soldiers.

Nanyang basically has the final say on his part, but he suffered a big loss in the hands of Mu Jun before, which affected his foundation in Nanyang, and his position is a bit precarious now.

"Sun Hao said that Lei Bo is a little crazy now, and he is even going to attack some big households in Nanyang!"

"Because of this incident, several commercial firms in Nanyang moved their grain out one after another. They were afraid that Lei Bo would steal the warehouse, but the grain in Nanyang is getting less and less. If this trend continues, the price of grain in Nanyang will soar!"

The more Mu Jing talked, the more excited he became: "Winter is coming soon, if Lei Bo is in a state of desperation at this time, and we are willing to provide him with some food, let him secretly let go of the defense of the champion Xinye, do you think he will be willing? "

"If so?"

Hu Zhao turned his pupils slightly, and said, "That's not impossible!"

"You go and try this!"

Mu Jing said softly: "It doesn't matter if it's successful or not, at least give Lei Bo some ideas, if it doesn't work, then use countermeasures to make Yuan Shu have a grudge against this person. few!"

"Do you want to recruit Lei Bo?" Hu Zhao said suddenly.

"If he brings Nanyang and surrenders to me, of course I will accept him, but if there is no Nanyang, I don't want him!" Mu Jing said: "This person is greedy, so he may not be able to feed him!"

"It's good that you are clear in your heart!"

Hu Zhao heaved a sigh of relief. He was a little afraid that Mujing's appetite would overwhelm him. It would be best for the Minghou Mansion to advance steadily at this time: "Now the main force is concentrated in Jingzhou, and we can't provoke Nanyang. If you are not careful, several counties in Nanyang will be driven straight into them!"

"rest assured!"

Mu Jing waved his hand: "In Nanxiang, Xi Zhicai and Huang Zhong set up a dragon gate formation. The Guanzhong army in Wuguan in the north dare not say it, at least the soldiers and horses in Nanyang dare not come in. I will provoke you at this time, just right Tell him, I am going to ambush him!"

……

The two started discussing about Nanyang's affairs, and they used kindness together for several hours, and they dispersed in the middle of the night.

the next morning.

Mujing wanted to stay in bed a little bit, he slept a little late last night, and there seemed to be nothing important today, so he was going to stay in bed, being able to stay in bed is a blessing, but God is not good.

A piece of news pulled Mu Jing out of the warm blanket.

"Fancheng failed to attack?"

Wearing a plain robe, Mu Jing stepped barefoot on the smooth wooden floor, and walked out of the wing room. His hair was not in a bun, and his jet-black hair was naturally draped behind his head. His eyes were shining brightly, looking at the preparations in his hands, his face There is a hint of gloom.

The battle of Fancheng was a battle that knocked on the gate of Jingzhou.

In Mu Jing's view, even if Jingzhou, which is fighting on two fronts, can react, it will not be so fast, so the battle of Fancheng should be easier, but I didn't expect that the defeat notebook would be sent just a few days later. .

The memorial was not written by Huang Zhong, nor by Xi Zhicai, but by Jingwusi. Jingwusi also had the power to monitor the situation on the battlefield and report truthfully to Mujing.

"Does anyone else know this playbook?" He quickly calmed down and asked.

"My lord, this is an urgent delivery from eight hundred li!"

Huo Yu bowed and said: "After receiving it, I didn't dare to delay for a moment, and sent it immediately!"

"Suppress this matter first!"

Mu Jing put the memorial book into the brazier next to it, burned it directly, and said: "Order Jing Wusi, keep watching the situation on the battlefield!"

"promise!"

Huo Yu accepted the order, turned around and left.

"Husband, is there any accident on the front line?" Cai Yan is wearing a blue robe and long gown, her hair is tied up in a scholarly bun, she looks a bit like jade, she has been dressing up like this recently, and she just dressed up today, and she hasn't had time yet After going out, seeing Mu Jing's conversation with Huo Yu in the hall, he became a little worried.

"It may not be an accident!"

Mu Jing shook his head: "Jing Wusi's report shows the current situation on the battlefield. Our army retreated ten miles and suffered two battalions of casualties, but Xi Zhicai is very cunning, what he saw may not be true, unless they report it themselves Otherwise, I still trust him and Huang Zhong!"
