The blood has solidified and invaded the fingers, soaked into the folds of the skin, and seemed to be attached to the bones and penetrated into the bones...

War, it never knows what mercy is.

Whether it is a person who likes war or a person who hates war, whether it is powerful or weak, once it is swept into the vortex of war, you must try your best until you finally fall.

The same is true in Jiangdong.

Although the Jiangdong people tried very hard to avoid being affected by the war, the war between Feiqin and Cao Cao, who broke out north of the Yangtze River, still affected the Jiangdong people.

However, at the beginning of this impact, it was similar to positive.

As Cao Cao launched an attack on Heluo, the overall economy of Jiangdong became more prosperous for a period of time.

Some people know what this is, while others are chaotic and have no idea why it turned out like this. They also thought that Jiangdong could be safe and leave the war alone.

The subsequent changes were a fierce blow to the Jiangdong people!

When Jiangdong first advanced, it conquered many counties and townships on the Yangtze River, and once approached the front line to Sichuan and Sichuan, and the scenery was very beautiful for a while. However, this scenery soon stopped. As the war became more intense, the barbarians in Wuling area began to make trouble again and conquered many counties in Wuling County.

However, it is not the first time for Jiangdong that the Nanman Shanyue rebellion is that many Jiangdong people also sigh and scold, and then continue to do whatever they should do, and do not take the rebellion of Wulingman seriously at all.

After all, in the hearts of Jiangdong people, these Wuling Man is like seasonal allergic rhinitis. Although it will make Jiangdong people feel uncomfortable in a certain period of time, after this period, the symptoms will be reduced and then they will be the same as healthy people.

Compared with the rebellion of the Wuling Barbarians, more Jiangdong people were thinking about the price of food that suddenly stood in front of them like a huge wall!

Suddenly, the food was like wings growing, soaring upwards!

It was not until this moment that someone woke up. At the beginning, Jiangdong's economy was inexplicably prospering, and a large number of coins suddenly appeared on the market. Why...

Money is only valuable when you can buy things.

When Cao Cao and Fei had a potential Heluo war, trade activities would basically stagnate before the final result of the war came out. Because many farmers would be transferred to labor, transporting grain and grass to transport objects, it would inevitably lead to insufficient farming and shortage of food.

So Jiangdong is not short of money or food at present.

『Things are difficult...』

Sun Quan stood in front of the lintel of the window and sighed in a low voice.

Sun Quan, who returned to the political center, was filled with emotion.

Sun Quan said slowly, "When Yan Beizhan first came to the north, he was short of food and could not enter... Later, he often sighed as if there were food and grass, and he could determine the world... I couldn't help but sigh with regret... But now... it seems to be similar again...

『…There are indeed similarities, but there are also differences…” Zhang Zhao replied in a low voice.

"Different?" Sun Quan knocked on the window lintel and repeated these two words.

If Sun Jian had abundant food and grass back then, the Sun family would have said that they would have been able to settle in the Central Plains long ago. Whenever they think of this, Sun Quan was filled with regret. Now, Sun Quan once again encountered a choke in food problems.

Although Zhou Yu supported his plan to go out to Sichuan and Sichuan, he still kept his voice down.

Jiangdong is in peace, which is a complex issue.

From the beginning, Sun Jian killed the local prefect for authority for no reason, and lost his righteousness. Sun Ce was betrothed under Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu once regarded him as his nephew, but Sun Ce did not object. Later, he openly opposed Yuan Shu, resulting in losing his loyalty again. Sun Quan was inappropriate in his position, and his brother died and his brother lost his kindness. At the same time, it was rumored that Mrs. Sun was angry to death by Sun Quan, so even filial piety could not stand...

How can such a regime that is unfaithful, filial, unkind and unrighteous, convince the Jiangdong gentry?

Although Sun Shiwan claimed to be the Great Emperor in the later period, his official position was actually the lowest among the Three Kingdoms. The title of the Great Emperor was just a self-deception, and it was difficult to be recognized by the gentry and the people in other regions.

In terms of economy, Jiangdong's development level is relatively low, which means that the overall foundation is relatively weak and cannot support large-scale soldiers' long-term combat, which is also an important reason for the weak attack in Jiangdong.

At the same time, due to the war in the Central Plains, refugees from the north fled to the south. These ordinary refugees were generally useless. On the one hand, these refugees promoted the development of the Jiangdong economy with cheap work, but on the other hand, cheap refugees also caused the Jiangdong natives to lose a large number of job opportunities, and conflicts between them were inevitable.

If Sun Quan had the courage to use cheap labor on a large scale, develop Jiangdong land on a large scale, and erode the territory of the Vietnamese barbarians, it would have solved some contradictions, but unfortunately, neither Sun Quan nor Zhou Yu, nor Zhang Zhao and Lu Su could have done it. Perhaps it was because he did not have such a vision, maybe he had seen it, but he did not do it, but no matter what, this led to many conflicts in Jiangdong, which were very complicated, which caused friction and conflict in all aspects of society.

The trivial things, the continuous pressure on all aspects, and the military stagnation and failure made Sun Quan almost breathless.

Zhou Yu is in poor health and has a big problem. Sun Quan cannot let Zhou Yu go to Chang'an, so now he can only let Zhou Yu recuperate as much as possible. This makes even if Sun Quan encounters problems now, he dare not bother Zhou Yu. If Zhou Yu is accidentally letting him die of hard work, then Jiangdong may not collapse immediately.

So Sun Quan could only consult Zhang Zhao.

There was nothing wrong with finding Zhang Zhao. After all, Zhang Zhao was responsible for the matter of people's livelihood, government affairs, food and grass logistics. But Zhang Zhao obviously could not betray his butt for Sun Quan...

"In the past, it was Yuan Gonglu who was doing his own desires. Today... it was not what he wanted, but the business of the market..." Zhang Zhao glanced at Sun Quan and ignored Sun Quan's increasingly ugly face. "The matter of purging food is what the people do, not being enemies of the lord."

Sun Quan held it in a stable voice as much as possible: "Since that is the case, would Mr. Zhang let the frontline soldiers endure hunger?"
