Of course, everything is relative. If Gao Kongmu cannot suppress the chaos with this sword, then Duan Xiushi will use his sword to kill him. It is very simple. Before the riot spread, it is not uncommon for the Jiedushi to use the head of the Kongmu official to please and please the rioters.

Gao Yue looked at the sword hidden in the sheath, and his throat couldn't help but rumble, and his whole body was shocked.

Fortunately, Duan Xiushi has always strictly regulated his army, and under his quarrels, no general dared to rebel.

From the various accounts of Jingzhou, Gao Yue quickly found out the details of Anxi and Beiting Xingying:

The camp had a total of 30,000 soldiers and 5,000 horses. The court transferred "520,000 clothes and 350,000 stones of grain" from the taxes and other funds of Zheng and Ying prefectures every year to supply military supplies.

Of course, there are tricks in this number, and it is not difficult to see the way under Gao Yue's calculation. Generally speaking, the clothes for soldiers are divided into spring and winter seasons, with spring clothes of three and winter clothes of four. That means that a soldier's annual clothes of seven should be seven. The total clothes required by the Jingzhou army is 210,000. As for the grain, local soldiers in Jingzhou eat more corn and give one stone a month, which is 12 stone a year, and the corn consumed by 30,000 soldiers a year is 360,000. The price of corn and rice is 360,000. There is a conversion rate problem with the price of corn and rice, which is about the price of ten stones of corn equals the price of six stones of rice, which means that the total number of rice in the camp is about 220,000. In addition, the food and grass consumed by horses can be converted according to the ratio of "one horse and three pawns". Five thousand horses are equal to the additional supply of 15,000 soldiers, which requires about 130,000 meters of rice.

So, where will the extra 310,000 pieces of cloth go?

It turned out that Jingzhou was listed as an unregistered state by the court, which means that because it is located in the border, and has been war-torn for years and the land is deserted, there is no need to collect taxes from the court. On the contrary, the court has to transport taxes from Zheng, Ying and Huazhou to visit the army. However, the freight costs are money. With Liu Yan's efforts, although the freight costs effectively, it is also converted to the "price" of one stone of rice and two guan and five hundred feet. Therefore, the transport of 350,000 stones of rice to Chang'an, and then exchanged it for corn from the Hebao Envoy to Jingzhou. The freight costs about 900,000 guan alone - alas, no wonder that the entire Tang Dynasty now had eight out of ten taxes, which were all spent on maintaining the army.

The shipping cost is 900,000 guan, which is converted into silk cloth, which is about 220,000 pieces.

So the extra 310,000 pieces of cloth, 220,000 were budgeted to serve as the price of the grain transporter.

But what about ninety thousand horses left?

Gao Yue checked the whereabouts of the funds. In name, it was used to buy rice and grain for military storage, that is, to purchase local grain and store it in warehousing. However, Jingzhou now has no ten fields, and even if you have money or silk, you can't buy rice! So all these 90,000 pieces were used to give bonuses to the soldiers, because the salary and clothes received by the soldiers were only for him, and his wife and children could not have to wear clothes and eat food.

Nowadays, there are several square towns in the northwest, including 50,000 soldiers in Shuofang, 30,000 soldiers in Fengxiang, 30,000 soldiers in Jingyuan (Anxi Xingying) and 30,000 soldiers in Hedong, totaling 140,000 soldiers. In addition, every year, the elite soldiers of other square towns have to be selected to prevent autumn, and the cost is even more frequent. If this continues, not only the Anxi Xingying, but also the country will not be good...

Gao Yue slowly had an answer in his mind about preventing autumn matters Duan Xiushi asked: not only should we look at the terrain of Jingzhou, but also to see the overall situation of the entire country.

If there is a problem, you need to consider how to solve it.

While Gao Yue was considering carefully, two officials came to the main hall of the Kongmu Courtyard and bowed to him, and then said, "Ming Miao, the chief monk of Alanta Temple, told the former chief monk Mingxuan that he had embezzled the permanent gold of the temple. He also asked Gao Kongmu to sit in the yamen to make a decision."

Alas? This is much busier than being in Jixianyuan, and the case is actually being pushed forward on the first day.

Wait, isn’t this Alanta Temple the temple where Yunshao and I boarded yesterday?

No wonder before I left today, the abbot (the chief) asked me if I was the new Confucius Officer!

At this moment, a famous old official came forward and reminded: "Gao Kongmu, this case was an old case last year. Neither the former Kongmu official nor the judge could be judged. Jie Shuai had wanted to mediate the dispute, but it was not successful."

"It seems a bit tricky, but I am the one who writes Huaibei Records!" Gao Yue sat upright, put the seals of the mansion and prepared the paper and pen for the judgment, and ordered the parties involved to be summoned to the church.

Soon, the monk Mingmiao, the chief monk, and several other monks came, and Mingxuan walked in behind him. When Mingxuan came to the gate of Kongmu Courtyard, he was surrounded and scolded by many monks from Alanta Temple. However, the thin Mingxuan did not say a word, lowered his head and seemed to be silent.

Seeing that both parties to the dispute had arrived, Gao Yue was about to ask, and when he was about to ask, a voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard, "Let's see the Gao Kongmu Tui case!"

With this voice, more than ten generals of Anxi Army, including Liu Wenxi, Yao Lingyan, Ma Di, Zhang Yufei, etc., dressed in military uniforms and swords, came to the main hall with a high sword, and then sat down on the side.

The atmosphere suddenly solidified. Gao Yue looked at the group of people and was shocked, knowing that the visitor was not kind.

The few bookmakers in charge of recording in front of the book case were even more trembling. They knew that these Qiu Ba were going to "kill" the new scholar Kongmu official: as long as there were any omissions in the case or the case was judged as a gourd case, then Gao Yue would like to stay in Anxi camp in the future, it would be a delusion - Gao Kongmu, Gao Kongmu, before you came, you would just be passionate, and you wouldn't ask how the group of promoters, Kongmu, left? They were not at all peaceful!

In the main hall, Duan Xiushi, who had just returned from the camp, had not started to sit quietly, but the follower next to him told him that he had all brought a large group of them to the Confucius Courtyard to see the case of Gao Langjun pushing the Alanta Temple.

"Oh? These guys want to bully people again." Duan Xiushi was a little angry. In fact, he knew the inside story of the Alantu Temple case, but due to his poor identity, Gao Yue, a young man, was afraid that he had no experience in handling it. It was not possible. After all, I invited him. He could have gone to his father-in-law's Nishikawa Shogunate to lie down and get the generous salary. It would be a generous friendship to come to our Jingyuan, and he could not hurt Gao Yue's heart.

"Let's go!" Duan Xiushi walked straight towards the Kongmuyuan.

At this time, in the main hall of the Kongmu Courtyard, Zhang Yufei shouted, "Gao Kongmu is quick to push the case!"

The other military generals also agreed.

Although Gao Yue had some slight sweat beads on his forehead, he was still calm in general. He reviewed the past files and asked Mingmiao: "Are you the current chief monk in Alanta Temple?"

"It's..." Mingmiao answered respectfully with his hands folded.

"You want to sue the former chief monk Mingxuan?"

“That’s right.”

"You said that when Alanta Temple served as the monk in another generation, it was necessary to hand over the permanent property in the temple (similar to movable property and real estate). When Mingxuan was delivering, he deliberately concealed ten taels of permanent gold?"
