Chapter Eighty-Four: Decision
Lu Hong's study hung a map of the Fufeng border, Gao Yuan walked to the map, swept his eyes, found a pen from Lu Hong's bookcase, and scribbled on it: "Uncle, there are some places on your map that are not very accurate, this time I was stationed in Curie Pass, and I measured the terrain within fifty miles, and I have corrected all the errors on your map."
"It seems that you have really put in a lot of effort in the past few months!" Lu Hongshu smiled.
"The Donghu people have been at odds with us for generations, how can I be careless?" Gao Yuan said with a smile, pointed to the map and said: "Uncle, look, this is our Curie Pass, and this is where the Hutu people are stationed, the two sides are not far apart, and the fast horse is half a day's journey."
"Tell me what you think, how can you let the Donghu cavalry obediently fight on the battlefield you have chosen?" What Lu Hun is interested in now is this.
"Uncle, Curie Pass is different now, these Donghu people are only hundreds of horsemen, it is unlikely that they will attack Curie Pass, of course, if he really goes to fight, I can't ask for it, even if they bleed up under Curie Pass, it is impossible to beat my Curie Pass." Gao Yuan said with a smile.
"You have faith!" Lu Hong said with a smile: "It is haode to be vigorous and sharp, but lofty, don't underestimate the heroes of the world, there are not no heroes among the Donghu people, and there are no capable people."
"Uncle taught me a lesson, but I haven't been idle in Curie in the past few months!" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "The Donghu people will not storm the Curie Pass, this is not in their interests, so they will definitely bypass the Curie Pass and directly attack other targets in the territory of Fufeng as they did last year, this is our opportunity. I'm going to lead an elite force to attack his old camp after I find out that the Donghu people are out of the camp, and the Donghu people probably can't imagine that we have such great courage, as long as we take his old camp, I am not afraid that they will not rush back to the rescue if they don't fight to the death, then, their old camp is our decisive battle."
Lu Hong pondered for a moment, "It's a good idea to attack his old camp, but there is a problem, you only have three hundred people in your hands, Curie Pass must be defended by leaving people, you can take no more than half of the people away, if Curie Pass is empty, the Donghu people will inevitably be suspicious, even if you attack the opponent's old camp successfully, then how do you deal with the more than four hundred cavalry who turned?" You can't win."
"I already have a plan to deal with this, uncle, have you forgotten that I also have a Hun friend?"
"Helan Ministry?"
"That's right, Helan Ministry!" Gao Yuan nodded affirmatively, "I have discussed with them, when we attack the opponent's old camp successfully, I will deliberately release some live mouth to report to the Hutu people, after these people get the letter, they will inevitably go crazy to help, and the Helan Department can organize two hundred cavalry to intercept in the middle, even if the Donghu people can break through the interception and return to the old camp, I think it will not be more than half, more than two hundred cavalry, I can still support it for a while, and at this time, Half of my soldiers left behind in Curie Pass will also join up with the cavalry of the Helan tribe and rush to the old camp of the Donghu people to attack with me, if all goes well, the Hutu tribe should cease to exist after this battle."
Lu Hong stared at the map for a long time, walking around the house, his face looked a little excited, if it was really as Gao Yuan said, then for Fufeng, it was a big threat, and for himself, it was also a big military achievement.
"This matter is not trivial, so let's go, Gao Yuan, let's go to see Wu County Commander together and discuss with him!" Lu Hong said cautiously: "If there is a real fight, this will really have to gather the strength of the whole county, the countryside must be fortified and cleared, and a large number of people will have to hide or concentrate in the county seat, which will inevitably require the full cooperation of the Wu County Order."
"Uncle is right!" Gao Yuan knew that this was the right reason, "Uncle, when I came back this time, I found that Zheng Xiaoyang's second team has changed a lot!"
Lu Hong must daxiao, "That's natural, after listening to your words, I will give them full salary, and there will be rewards from time to time, I also told Zheng Xiaoyang and Naha, don't ask them to be the same as you, but at least have the strength of your first team, otherwise, please ask them to abdicate and make way for Xian, I will transfer people from your first team to be soldiers, can they not be in a hurry?" After the Chinese New Year, Zheng Xiaoyang and Naha began to train in a hurry, I went to see it a few times, nothing new, it was completely imitating yours, it seems that Zheng Xiaoyang borrowed from you for a while, but he stole a lot of art, you won't blame, right?"
"Uncle, where are you talking about, whether it's Zheng Xiaoyang, Naha, or me, they're all uncle's subordinates, the stronger they are, the stronger the uncle, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I blame?" Gao Yuan smiled and groaned.
"I know you're generous!" Lu Hong patted Gao Yuan's shoulder with satisfaction, "Speaking of which, Zheng Xiaoyang and Naha are not stupid, I owe them too much before, as long as they are given enough money, the soldiers they bring will not be too bad, they are all pulled up by me, if there are no two or three brushes, how can I take a fancy to them?"
"Uncle is right!" High flattery.
"Let's go, let's go to Wu Kai, just enough to disturb him with a good drink, this guy, now he has made a lot of money, but he is getting more and more stingy, now I sent someone to find him to ask for a jar of excellent wine, he actually said that there is no goods, today, but he went to drink him back, don't give me face, is it possible not to give you face?" Lu Hong Daxiao Road.
Wu Kai has not rested, he is settling accounts, a quarter has passed, it is time to settle accounts for shareholders, at this moment, he is buried in a large pile of account books, under his head, there are several people who look like masters, abacus beads hit the mountain, and the house was crackling. Lu Hong and Gao Yuan came together, which surprised Wu Kai.
"Lao Wu, set up the wine, set the wine, take the most haode wine, Gao Yuan came back all the way from Curie Pass, but you haven't eaten dinner yet, you can't be stingy!" As soon as he entered the door, Lu Hong shouted.
"It's obvious that you are a drunkard, but you are pushing it on Gao Yuan, the old way, you are becoming more and more unkind!" Wu Kaidaxiao said: "But Gao Yuan is really a rare guest, he has been gone for a few months, but he wants to kill me, come to someone, come to someone, serve the most haode wine, make the most haode dish!"
All the way to the two into the study, taking advantage of the kitchen to cook, Lu Hong will be lofty Jihua to Wu Kai made a detailed explanation, the existence of this shareholder Hu people, is a very scratching thing for Wu Kai, if it is really as Gao Yuan said, they will be cleared, not only for the Wu family's business, but also for his official reputation is also a big help, Donghu people old to scratch and loot, so that the people of Fufeng are not happy, I am afraid that the Wu family will even have difficulties in the raw materials for winemaking.
"I don't know anything about the war, you have your own ideas, the old way is an expert, if you think it's feasible, then do it, what do you need me to do, naturally it is full support." Wu Kai waved his hand and said. I just want to ask, Gao Yuan, are you sure?"
"Yes!" In front of Wu Kai, Gao Yuan did not hesitate at all, and did not even add a prefix, and answered directly and affirmatively.
"Okay, I believe in you, Gao Yuan, you are my lucky star, since you say okay, then do it!" Wu Kai said with a smile.
Lu Hong said with some jealousy: "I just said that I am a big expert, but in the blink of an eye, I only believe in lofty."
Wu Kaidaxiao, "Old Road, don't be jealous, how many years have we been friends, and I don't see you making us rich, as soon as Gao Yuan makes a move, I will come to run from time to time, and the money comes like flowing water, this is still secondary, and more importantly, now my Wu family's wine has traveled all over Liaoxi County, and it is still expanding outward, you say I don't believe him, who else can I trust?"
"Anyway, I won't fight with you about this, in short, Gao Yuan is my nephew, since you agree, then let's do a big fight." Lu Hong said with a smile.
"Lord Wu, uncle, the first thing to do in this battle is to keep it secret, I don't think anyone else needs to know about it except for the three of us." Gao Yuandao.
"Gao Yuan has a point, if the secret is leaked, it will not only be a matter of mission failure, but I am afraid that Gao Yuan, who attacked, will be in danger at that time!" Lu Hong nodded again and again.
"Don't worry, we didn't say anything out of this room." Wu Kai stood up with a smile, "Let's go, presumably the wine and food have been prepared outside, let's go and have a few drinks, Gao Yuan, you came back just in time, when we finish drinking, the account must be finished, you just take your share back, you are in Curie, I am still thinking about where to send this money!"
The three of them walked into the living room laughing all the way, and the sprinkling of vegetables had indeed been arranged, and when they saw the wine jar on the table, Lu Hong suddenly became unhappy, "Old Wu, you are really stingy, you don't take out the most haode wine in pottery to entertain guests, and you actually use this to perfunctory us?"
Wu Kai glanced at him with disdain, "What do you know, those wines in beautiful containers are for making money, although they are the most expensive, when did I say that it is the most haode?" patted the jar next to him, "This is the most haode, if it weren't for Gao Yuan coming back, if you want to drink, you really have to spend your old nose hard."
As soon as he heard this, Lu Hong immediately turned his anger into joy, snatched the wine jar, slapped the mud seal with one palm, and poured out a bowl impatiently, like a long whale sucking water, he sucked the wine in the bowl dry in one breath, dropped the wine bowl, wiped the residual wine on his beard, and shouted: "Good wine, refreshing!"
This meal of wine is very enjoyable, even with the amount of high alcohol, it is a little dizzy, the current wine is not the mash wine that he has just come to this era, but the real wine at least at a height of more than fifty degrees, it is really easy to get drunk.
After drinking this wine, when Gao Yuan went back, Wu Kai had prepared a carriage for him, and the car was loaded with nearly 6,000 yuan, which was the dividend of the first quarter, and he and Lu Hong accounted for a total of 10% of the shares, each of which was half, and Taishou Zhang Shou had about 20% of the shares, which was 24,000 yuan, and when converted, there would be an income of 200,000 or 300,000 yuan a year, and the profit was extremely amazing. This is just wine, and now the Xianyun Building in Liaoxi City is also a daily income, but it is a settlement every year, and for a while, it still can't come up with money.
