Chapter 7 I'm Too Wronged

Shishi agreed immediately, but it was very difficult for her.
According to Li Hu's estimate, the Tiger Lieutenant Army entered the Hebei battlefield and was about to continue fighting with the Jin army, but Bian Jing must have a thug behind the scenes. The only thing that can control the Tiger Lieutenant Army is money and grain. As long as the Tiger Lieutenant Mansion solves the money and grain, the Tiger Lieutenant Army can persevere in the Hebei battlefield.
"Where is Bianjing? How to solve the problem of Bianjing?" Li Shishi was most concerned about this. She also hoped that Li Hu could control the situation and successfully resolve the matter of Bianjing. "Why can't you enter Bianjing first?"
"I want to defeat the Jin army first and then enter Bianjing. This order cannot be wrong." Li Hu said, "I am a Han native in the north. The Tiger Lieutenant Army is an army composed of Han natives in the north. If I enter Bianjing first, it is actually not much different from the Jin army invasion. I hold the emperor and the court hostage with force, and will surely attract the resistance of the emperor and ministers. I will definitely fight in Hebei. Once the main force of the Tiger Lieutenant Army leaves Bianjing, even if Bianjing is not in chaos, someone will escape. Then I will become the enemy of the Song Dynasty. Local troops will serve the king and kill Bianjing one after another. I am attacked from both sides, and the result can be imagined."
"So I must first defeat the Jin army. One way I got the recognition of the Song people, and the other way I evacuated the Jin army and entered the Bianjing to steer the emperor, so I could get enough time to stabilize the place. Even if I wanted to serve the king in the place, I would not be attacked from both sides."
"However, the situation in Bianjing is very chaotic now. If you fight in Hebei and Bianjing is in chaos, the emperor and Tong Guan fled to the southeast with the court and agreed to join forces to attack you, what will you do?" Li Shishi asked worriedly.
"So I'm not in a hurry to enter the Hechang now." Li Hu said, "The reason why the emperor and Tong Guan were eager to move south is that the people in the northwest forced me too hard and I was staring at them. If the people in the northwest suffered a heavy blow on the battlefield in Hebei, I went to the battlefield in Hebei again and said that the emperor and Tong Guan would still be in a hurry to escape from Bianjing?"
Li Shishi's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Li Hu in surprise, as if he saw a bloodthirsty beast, and his delicate body shivered slightly because of excessive fear.
"You want to kill the Northwest?"
"It's not that I want to kill the Northwest people, but that the Emperor and Tong want to kill the Northwest people." Li Hu smiled, "At this moment, as long as Bianjing gives me money and food, I can run to Hebei battlefield, will the emperor give me it? The emperor urged me to support him, but did not give me money and food. The intention was too obvious."
"You want to kill the people of the Northwest." Li Shishi always affirmed that Li Huzhan held the emperor and the court. The biggest obstacle was not Tong Guan, but the people of the Northwest. "If I gave you money and food now, would you go to the battlefield in Hebei to rescue the people of the Northwest?"
"The problem is that it will take two months to arrive in Luoyang." Li Hu did not give a positive answer. But this is enough to show his sinister intentions.
"Two months? Two months later, the Jin army had already killed the city of Bianjing." Li Shishi said angrily. "The people in the northwest suffered this heavy blow. They must be hated to the core of Bianjing. If a mutiny broke out in Bianjing, how do you control the situation?"
Li Hu laughed, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"I understand, it turns out that your purpose is to launch a second mutiny among the people in the northwest. Isn't it?" Li Shishi suddenly woke up and cursed with Li Hu's nose. "You... you are simply not a human."
"Puchi..." Li Hu couldn't help but squirt all the tea, and he choked and coughed.
"What does this have to do with me?" Li Hu stood up and wiping the tea from his clothes, and laughed, "Did I do anything? I didn't do anything? I'm so unfair to blame me like this."
Li Shishi was so angry that his face turned red, and his angry eyes wanted to turn into a sharp sword and pierce Li Hu.
Li Hu was too cunning. He knew that even if he entered Bianjing and held the emperor and the court hostage, he would not be able to control the entire Song Dynasty. For more than 160 years, the Zhao royal family had a high status in the hearts of the people of the Song Dynasty. It was impossible to immediately become independent. In this case, holding the emperor and the court hostage would inevitably lead to local resistance. Civil war and division were inevitable, while Li Hu had no foundation and failure was inevitable. From a historical perspective, to hold the emperor and command the world, he must first have his own foundation. Once the foundation is laid, it would be simple to do this. Therefore, Li Hu had no intention of entering Bianjing at all. He hoped that the Bianjing would be in chaos, hope that the Bianjing would be destroyed, and hope that the Song Dynasty would be divided. When the Song Dynasty was split, he could stabilize in the northwest, then develop and grow, and then unify China.
Li Hu is not a human at all. He is a vicious tiger that cannibalizes people. He wants to tear the Song Dynasty apart, let the Song Dynasty die in pain, and then enjoy this sumptuous meal with peace of mind.
"Don't be angry." Li Hu shook his hand at Li Shishi, "Don't be wronged. I ask you, how many wars have my Huli Army fought in the past few years? I was still in Helan Mountain last winter, but in February this year, my army arrived in Hebei. Can you say I didn't do my best? Prince Yun wants to be the emperor, I promised him and helped him become the emperor, but he turned against him and was about to deal with me. Do you think you can blame me? What did I do wrong?"
Li Shishi spoke speechless to Li Hu.
"I have many troops in the Tiger Lieutenant Army, I admit that, but my Tiger Lieutenant soldiers are not livestock, and are not slaves who are willing to work hard after feeding them. I have to give them money. I use money to buy their lives and blood and sweat. You say that if I don't give this money, who else can give me life? Who will obey my command? If the court does not give me money and food, I am also poor. Do you think this army can fight when it is pulled on the battlefield? The army without morale and no combat effectiveness will come to the battlefield. Wouldn't it be given to the enemy for lunch?"
“There is a Luoyang
Do you know the team? I tell you, 80,000. I can lead 70,000 troops and can draw 20,000 troops from Taiyuan. There are still 30,000 troops in Hebei. 120,000 troops, the monthly military salary is 400,000 guan. In addition to the food, weapons consumption, and the consumption of more than 100,000 people, a month's war will take at least five million guan. If you fight for four consecutive months, it will be 20 million guan." Li Hu looked at Li Shishi and asked, "How do you think I will fight this battle?"
"Does Bianjing have no money? I don't believe it. In February, Bianjing negotiated with the Jin Kingdom and gave the Jin Kingdom five million taels of gold, fifty million taels of silver, and one million pieces of silk. Where did this money come from? Bianjing would rather give the money to the Golden Dog than reward the 200,000 army to the royal army. If Bianjing rewarded the soldiers of the Song Dynasty and could not defeat the Golden Dog? You asked Bianjing to give me five million taels of gold, fifty million taels of silver, and one million pieces of silk to me immediately bring the army to Hebei."
"Look at the wealth you have? How much money is there? If you don't tell me, I can estimate that it is probably an incredible number. How did these wealth come about? When the Jin army invaded, the Supreme Emperor would rather flee to the southeast to rebuild the court than use it to protect his country. Can such emperors and ministers still bring blessings to the Song Dynasty? Can the Song Dynasty be rich and strong?"
"So as long as Bian Jing exists, as long as the emperor and those shameless ministers exist, the Song Dynasty's army will always defeat its opponents. Only by destroying Bian Jing can the Song Dynasty be reborn, the Song Dynasty can revive, and rise again."
Li Shishi convinced Li Hu.
There are not many people who know better than her in the Song Dynasty. She also knows that the Song Dynasty has many crises, but she never thought of rebirth in the Song Dynasty. Perhaps Li Hu is a genius of a generation who can rebuild the Song Dynasty and rebuild the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties. By chance, she had won Li Hu's trust and became a member of the great cause. Perhaps it was destined to be God's will.

Several people discussed until the early morning.
Starting with the worst results in the future, Hulie Mansion has had a serious financial crisis for a long time. As long as the war does not end, as long as Li Hu does not actually occupy the entire southern territory of the Yellow River, Li Hu needs a steady stream of money and food.
The worst result is that the Song Dynasty split and the Central Plains fell into a melee, the entire southeast, Jinghu and Sichuan became the rear base supporting the battlefield. If Li Hu wanted to extend his sphere of influence to the southeast, it would be difficult for him to do so. He was dominated by the northwest and was attacked from three sides. There were too many battlefields and too many wars, and a financial crisis was inevitable.
When Hu Lie Mansion got Jinghu and Sichuan, the policies to implement were extremely important. Li Shishi repeatedly warned Li Hu that he could no longer implement the set of policies of the Song Dynasty, which could only make the financial crisis of Hu Lie Mansion worse and worse.
As for Li Shishi personally, her wealth can generate rich returns in Jinghu, Sichuan and Shu, where there is no war, but compared with the huge expenditure of Huliu Mansion, these money and grains are like drops of water, which can only help the emergency, but cannot solve the fundamental problem. If you want to solve the fundamental problem, you must start from the policy, and immediately reform, take advantage of this troubled times, use force as a backing, and forcefully implement the new policy to increase taxes and ensure the survival of the people. To put it bluntly, it is to attack vested interest groups and those privileged classes.
Li Shishi's business scope is involved in all walks of life, with a strong son and wide range of ways. After the Huli Army actually controls Sichuan and Jinghu, she can still get protection from the government, so she can use various means to obtain various materials such as grain in Sichuan, Sichuan, Jinghu, Southeast and other places through unofficial channels and various means.
In the war years, sometimes it was not a shortage of gold, silver and treasures, but food and cloth. The northern part of the Yellow River had entered a state of war. The fields gradually became deserted, workshops gradually went bankrupt, merchants were becoming increasingly scarce, and wealth decreased sharply. At this time, areas south of the Yangtze River that were not poisoned by war would quickly prosper. Although war destroyed everything, war consumed a lot. War not only needed military weapons, but also money, grain and various materials, which would drive the prosperity of all walks of life in peaceful areas.
The Hu Lie Army came from the north and had no foundation in the Song Dynasty. They were not familiar with the Song Dynasty. To be honest, these northerners went to the south and could not even speak dialects. What business would they do? It took some time for the southerners of the Song Dynasty to accept these Han people from the north. They may not dare to do business in the areas controlled by the Hu Lie Army in the short term. In addition, the Hu Lie Mansion must implement different policies in the areas controlled by the areas controlled by the themselves, so the differences in different policies in different regions will also affect trade exchanges.
At this time, the appearance of Li Shishi helped Hu Lie Mansion solve this problem. These problems will be encountered soon and will seriously hinder the development of Hu Lie Mansion. Li Hu spent a lot of effort to pull Li Shishi onto his own ship, which is also a precaution.
Li Hu asked Yan Qing to assist Li Shishi and asked Xie Yidao to take 300 tiger guards to protect Li Shishi, while Zhu Xia took twenty elite scouts to go south with Li Shishi, using Li Shishi to expand the flood team in manors and restaurants in various places to spy on news from all over the country.
Although this powerful power equipment made Li Shishi feel very safe, it also felt like he was firmly controlled by Li Hu.
