The Great Tang: World Martial God

Chapter 1258: : The government must win

The wind and waves on Dongting Lake are decreasing, and there are more and more sunny days.

There are always some ghosts and ghosts spying in Yuezhou these days. The officers and soldiers caught a lot of water pirate spies, all their heads were chopped off and hung on the wall. There were a lot fewer spies, but the residents were panicked.

I don't know who said that he had missed his mouth and spread the news that there were 100,000 water pirates on Dongting Lake preparing to wash Yuezhou. There are very few pedestrians on the streets these days.

"General, do you think the water pirates will attack Yuezhou Fucheng?" A merchant with a fold-patterned hat asked Tang Hao in a low voice.

"Impossible, a group of mobs, where is my Lingnan Navy's opponent? Although Liang Gong lies high, it depends on my capture method." General Tang's reputation is well known.

"The navy master of the Kingdom is so majestic, the old man has long heard of it, in January in Goguryeo, he has dominated three prison cities and killed a hundred thousand enemies. The general is a young hero."

Tang Hao smiled and accepted the compliments of the merchants, and patted the map of Dongting Lake and said, "Look at the map of Dongting Lake. Here I will leave them in ashes."

Gong Liang twisted his beard and looked at the map, only to see the numerous small flags densely marked on it, the flying dragon representing the officers and soldiers, and the black chess pieces representing the water pirates outside. Sure enough, he was surrounded by a solid and impenetrable.

Apparently, it was just a few days before the water pirate was wiped out. After receiving the most reliable news, Liang Gong returned to Yuezhou contentedly. As soon as I entered the house, I saw a lot of people sitting in the lobby of the house. I couldn't help but smile and said, "As soon as the old man came back from the general, you all gathered in my house. You are really exquisite."

"Don't panic, the officers and soldiers have surrounded the culprits on Junshan Mountain. It will take a long time before they can gather and wipe them out. Just do what you need to do. The old man's family can't manage the food of these people. It's less than 20,000. What is there to worry about, the water pirate."

"Dong Liang is not right. There are indeed not as many water pirates as 100,000, but there are definitely 50,000 to 60,000. I am not afraid that everyone is laughing. The old man eats water on the water, so I have a little relationship with the water pirate. A water pirate's companion should say This time, it was a large gathering of the entire Dongting water pirates. He went when the general was called. There will definitely not be less than 50,000 people. If the general says less than 20,000, then he is definitely lying to us."

Liang Gongmeng stood up and pointed at the man and asked, "You... Confirm that this is the case? Are you sure that the number of culprits exceeds 50,000?"

"Gong Liang, my business relies on everyone to have a bowl of rice to eat. Who dares to deceive everyone about this kind of thing? That Bandang really saw it. The five to sixty thousand pirates will definitely not be beyond what General Tang said. Twenty thousand."

Mr. Liang nodded. The Cao family has indeed been in the water transport business for a long time, and their reputation has always been well known. If you don't know the water pirates in the water transport industry, you can't do this business for a long time.

They were all business people, and these doorways were naturally clear. He planned to tell Tang Hao the news.

It is a wrong idea to use more than 10,000 people to besie 50,000 people. It must be corrected, otherwise it will suffer a big loss.

When he walked to the door, he was dragged back by a large group of businessmen, begging him not to go. The imperial court's desire to encircle the water pirates is bound to be a protracted war. The land and houses that General Tang wants to deliver next year will be in vain. Once others learn about it, it will immediately become a trend.

When the time comes, the money he has handed over to Tang Hao will be taken away by others. Tang Hao's first money must be high-ranking officials, not businessmen like himself.

But wouldn't it be dangerous for the 10,000 soldiers and soldiers of the country? Duke Liang still couldn't bear it.

"Dong Liang, you can think about it, the soldiers are in danger, are we not in danger? Once the business fails, how should we arrange for the young and old in our family? It is also tens of thousands of people."

He looked at the crying businessman holding his leg at his feet, and looked at the elder son who was shrinking in the corner, trying to close the door. Daddy Liang lowered his head helplessly, and tremblingly said to his eldest son: "Never mind, Houde, from now on the Liang family will be handed over to you. Daddy is old and it's not worth it. You talk, I'll go to the back house and rest."

After speaking, he staggered to the back house.

"When we entered into the contract, we were worried that Tang Hao would go back and set the compensation higher. If the general wants to go back, he must refund us almost twice the amount of silver coins. We regret it. People only need to return 30% of our silver coins. As a result, didn’t we lose to grandma’s house?"

Boss Liang stared at his blood-red eyes and roared.

"Then what do you want? Wait until the water pirate enters the city? We have no money, and we can't see a copper coin. We can resell the title deed to others. Maybe it can reduce some losses. If we operate well, we can still make a profit. ."

"Let’s dream of your big head, people who do business on the water in Dongting Lake. Everyone has contact with the water pirates. Their news may be known earlier than us. Taking advantage of the opportunity now, hurry up and get 30% of the silver coins. It’s true to come back. What if the government wins the fight? If we do this, don’t we lift a rock and hit ourselves in the foot?"

A smart merchant said his opinions carefully, and everyone looked at him like an idiot.

An old man closed his eyes and slowly said: "The government will definitely win."
