Chapter 187 You lied to me?
"Duke Xingguo, the imperial court allocated food and salary every year, so the taxes in various places were made sure that the navy could not be intercepted."
Wang Zhiren's eyes shrank slightly and said, "You are also a soldier. You should know that it is difficult to raise a soldier for only 200,000 taels, right?"
Wu Zheng said: "It is better to listen to Wu Zheng's advice than to listen to Wu Zheng's advice. If you have the right to stop when you see it, you can only be aware of the current affairs."
Wang Zhiren slapped the table and said, "Wu Zheng, do you think I am afraid of you?"
Wu Zheng ignored Wang Zhiren's ambition at all, reached out to caress the wine that was shot by Wang Zhiren strongly, and then replied: "In the view of Duke Xingguo, should the court or Wu Zheng be afraid of Duke Xingguo and Dinghai Army?"
This made Wang Zhiren furious. He reached out to point his hand at Wu Zheng, who looked at him calmly.
The two of them were stalemate for a long time and didn't say a word.
After all, Wang Zhiren surrendered and he had to accept it.
The Dinghai Army is indeed capable of combat power. Wu Zheng knew this from when Wang Yilin led three thousand people to support him.
From this point of view, Wang Zhiren does have a way of leading troops.
This is also the reason why Wu Zheng is willing to negotiate with Wang Zhiren and compromise.
Otherwise, Wu Zheng had already crushed over with his strength, and the world was no longer the Chongzhen Dynasty. Even during the Chongzhen Dynasty, it had already collapsed and spoke with strength.
Wu Zheng even dared to overthrow Zhu Yihai, so how could he care about fighting another Duke?
Wang Zhiren also understood that the young young man in front of him was no longer the sentry officer who had just arrived in Shaoxing Prefecture. If he could negotiate with him here, he must have received the approval of the court and the support of the ministers.
When the Ding Navy fights against the imperial court and Wu Zheng, there is only one way to go - a dead end.
From this point of view, Wu Zheng was right - he stopped when he was good.
"It is possible to return the tax rights of the four coastal counties, but the taxes of Dinghai must be controlled by this Commission."
Wu Zheng was silent.
Wang Zhiren was a little anxious, "Now in this world, wars are frequent, and you can fight as soon as you say it. One person is less than seven taels a year, so it's not reasonable, right? I heard that the soldiers of the Qianhu District of Lianghu, Wu Zheng, are the soldiers of two taels a month."
Wu Zheng sighed lightly: "Why did Duke Xingguo only say half of his words? It is true that one person in Lianghu Institute is one month two taels, but that is the military pay paid out of his own pocket. What does it have to do with the court? Moreover, only the soldiers from Lianghu Institute have received such treatment. After capturing Hangzhou City, the surrendered troops who surrendered only have one taels of money per month."
Wang Zhiren suddenly caught Wu Zheng's words and said, "Okay, then you will pay the military salary of one tael per person per month. If the court allocates me 360,000 yuan in salary a year, I can return all the taxes to the court."
Wu Zheng was depressed. He knew that as long as he forced himself, Wang Zhiren could only accept it. After all, the right to speak now is not his.
But Wu Zheng didn't want this. Now Fang Guoan has fled and his troops have been reorganized. In fact, the troops in Shaoxing Prefecture have not increased. They are just divided into three parts from Fang Guoan. The court, Wu Zheng, and now Wang Zhiren, each account for a part. In fact, the court has less military pay, because thousands of people have gone to Wang Zhiren and included Wang Zhiren's part.
With the financial resources of Shaoxing Prefecture, it is still fine to support more than 40,000 troops.
If the Dinghai Army is too harsh, it will be unfair.
So Wu Zheng said: "That's as Duke Xingguo wishes, the taxes of Dinghai will be temporarily controlled by Duke Xingguo."
Wang Zhiren was overjoyed when he heard this, and patted Wu Zheng's shoulder hard and said, "That's right. No matter how we say we are in a life-long relationship, there is no reason to turn our elbows into the literati. Don't worry, I will keep my word. I will never be involved in the taxes of the other four counties from today."
Wu Zheng let out another sigh.
After drinking a bowl of wine from Wang Zhiren, he said, "Wu Zheng, you and I are the ones who lead the troops. You should know that it is difficult to lead the troops, especially when fighting, if the military order cannot be uploaded and issued, it is a delay of the opportunity to fight. Now I heard that the court wants to set the navy to dispatch military supervision, is there such a thing?"
Wu Zheng frowned slightly and said, "Where did Duke Xingguo come from? Why didn't Wu Zheng hear this?"
Wang Zhiren looked at Wu Zheng strangely and said, "Are you lie to me?"
Wu Zheng asked back: "What's the benefit of me lying you?"
Wang Zhiren thought for a while and said, "That's right. It seems that these literati even hide you!"
Wu Zheng felt a little moved. It was really possible that the old men were thinking about how to restrict the warriors. With the fact that their soldiers surrounded Shaoxing Prefecture, they became even more afraid.
It is really possible to do this with your back.
However, Wu Zheng also had a little wary of Wang Zhiren. He was so well-informed that he was not as well-informed as him in control of Shaoxing Mansion.
"I really don't know about this."
Wang Zhiren nodded and said, "I believe. These literati will not regard you as a kind of person. They have already classified you as a martial artist. Otherwise, you join forces with me to make them look good tomorrow."
Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "This matter may not be true. Maybe they were just talking casually. At least for now, they are unable to dispatch military supervisors to the two armies of Hangzhou and Jiaxing. If you and I join forces to make trouble, they will fall into disloyalty and unfaithfulness."
Wang Zhiren thought about it, "Then, according to you, how should I deal with this matter if I really do it?"
Wu Zheng replied: "Duke Xingguo doesn't have to worry too much about this matter. If one day Wu Zheng's army dispatches military supervision, then Duke Xingguo will follow the example."
Wang Zhiren's eyes became stranger again, but this time he agreed with Wu Zheng's statement.
Indeed, if even Wu Zheng accepted the imperial guards dispatched by the imperial court, what reason would he have to refuse?
So Wang Zhiren stopped obsessing about this matter, "What if the court wants to dispatch the troops under your command freely?"
Wu Zheng now understood that Wang Zhiren wanted to drag himself into the water.
"Duke Xingguo is relieved. Now the court has soldiers from the four guards. There is no accident. He should not point fingers at the army under Duke Xingguo. If the war is urgent, even if the court does not dispatch it, I think Duke Xingguo will take the initiative to send troops to fight, right?"
Wang Zhiren nodded and said, "I hope so."
....
After completing the exchange of interests with Wang Zhiren, Wu Zheng went to Zhang Guowei's Mansion.
"Wu Zheng, how are the negotiations?" Zhang Guowei asked anxiously after giving up his seat.
Correspondingly, the anxious faces of Qian Sule and others were Qian Sule and others.
It is undeniable that Wang Zhiren is very important in the court. Even if Shaoxing Prefecture is supported by Wu Zheng, Wang Zhiren's weight is still of great importance.
After all, he had a powerful navy army in his hand. Except for the Zheng family in the south, no one could compete with him, including the Qing court.
Wu Zheng could understand their feelings. These people were indeed loyal and righteous people, but for them, while maintaining the truth, they were also considering the interests of the small group.
Shaoxing Mansion is just such a big piece of cake. If there are too many pieces on the other side, there are naturally fewer on the other side.
If the new supervisor takes office, there should be a new look.
