Chapter 441: Li Yizi and Le Hedang
……………………………………
Although Goguryeo destroyed the country, it did not kill Yiyimo, and it always felt that it was a kick away, but the generals of the Montenegrin army could not care about emotion, and they couldn't even care about chasing Yiyimo. On the one hand, it is necessary to cooperate with Zhang Xiu to put pressure on Xuansu County, and on the other hand, it is necessary to clear the remnants of Goguryeo's resistance, and it is necessary to set up troops to guard against Gongsun Chan in the south.
In particular, the eradication of resistance is quite time-consuming and laborious.
This place is white and black, picturesque, but there is no road that can make a good walk, if there is no guide to lead, you can't get out. Not to mention the road, it is to float from the Bone City to the Mazi Water along the salt water, and there are more than eighteen turns in the middle, and the water conditions are particularly complicated, some places are tight and narrow, and some places are turbulent, which is not suitable for boating at all.
It is no wonder that the Central Plains court fought Goguryeo so many times in the past, either in vain, or it was not rare to occupy it. In this place, it is a big problem for a large army to enter and transport grain and grass alone, and if it is divided into small forces, it is possible to encounter wild beasts, it is possible to be ambushed, or it is possible to be lost in the mountains.
The Montenegrin army has no good way, so it can only take the relatively flat and more suitable for human habitation such as Susheng Bone City, Domestic City, Xigaima, and Shangyintai as the base, and then divide the troops into batches and gradually clear the surrounding mountains.
What's even funnier is that after the battle is over, the country is destroyed, and there may be many people over there who still don't know what's going on! However, it is not easy for the people in the mountains to survive, they are vigilant and aggressive, and as a result, what is not resistance becomes resistance. Fortunately, Xu Shu asked the troops who went into the mountains to clean up with some locals as guides and interpreters, so the situation was relatively reduced.
Looking at this military report of "great victory and destruction of the country", Liu Hanshao was at a loss.
What can my brother do?
Who left us without a way?
However, the land belongs to the state, and whether this land is good or bad, Liu Hanshao cannot ignore it, let alone let the border tribes develop and grow and become a disaster.
Therefore, the reply was immediately made:
First, a brigade was dispatched from Hu Che'er's mountain division to Liaodong to participate in the suppression of the resistance forces.
Second, in the east of Liaodong and north of Mazishui, Hengren County was set up, and the Susheng Bone City was changed to "Hengren City", and at the same time, it was the county of Hengren County.
Thirdly, the area under the jurisdiction of Hanzheng County extends from the south of Mazishui to the east to the border between Huiqian and Wofu, and to the south to the sea.
In this way, it not only divided the original Goguryeo and part of the Hao, but also wrapped Xianzhou tightly.
Fourth, additional corps should be sent to the three counties of Liaodong, Hengren, and Hanzheng to concentrate superior forces and develop forestry and animal husbandry, agriculture and livestock, and fishing and hunting together.
Of course, this year's additional corps will not be able to keep up, and we will have to wait until next year, and then try to send more Qianghu and Xiongnu recruits from Lianghe.
…………
There are more than 300 female slaves of Sanhan who were sold to Jizhou, but the effect is not good, because of the "five-order tax law", the servants of the family have to pay the poll tax by the head of the family, so no one in Jizhou is willing to make trouble for themselves at this time, adding burden.
Seeing that there was a problem with the plan for Xinzhou, Guo Jia found Wen Ping and asked the Fourth Army to pay for these female slaves, and then send them to various military hospitals in Jizhou to serve as nurses.
It is said that after Gongsun Chan received the support of the imperial court and Liu Hanshao's reward, his heart was really beautiful for a while, not to mention those excellent weapons for the time being, just to talk about the reward. The carriage is four-wheeled, the pendulum clock is timed, the hot pot is purple gold, the mirror is glazed, in addition to the glazed wine glasses, white porcelain tableware, fine silk, and new clothing......
The problem is, these things are good, but there are too few of them.
Not to mention, Gongsun Chan invited guests to a banquet, and those glass wine glasses and white porcelain tableware were not enough for everyone. It doesn't matter if others don't have a share, but their brothers, henchmen, and subordinates are all so big and follow them all the way, "loyal and full of love." "How can you not be interesting?
Besides, we can do the hot pot the same way, and we can't do anything else if we want to. If you give these things to your subordinates, it doesn't seem appropriate, and Guan Jing will go out in a four-wheeled carriage and Gongsun Chan will take a two-wheeled carriage? Although there are really not many places in Xianzhou where you can run away from this kind of four-wheeled carriage, this is a matter of face, and it is this pomp and circumstance that is important.
When Gongsun Chan was in trouble, the following report said that he had caught a cloth vendor, and as for why he had to report to Gongsun Chan even if he caught a cloth vendor, it was because this vendor was selling silk and cotton cloth produced in the interior of the Han Dynasty. As soon as Gongsun Zan asked, the peddler called himself Li Yizi, who lived in Bohai, Jizhou, and made a living selling cloth. Because a shipyard has now been built on the Bohai Sea to encourage fishing and water transportation, a boat was built to sell cloth in Xianzhou.
Xianzhou is a shabby place, and it is difficult to raise even the wine and meat used to reward the soldiers below, not to mention that his brothers and henchmen can use some wine and meat to pass away? Not to mention the ones that are too valuable, even if they use some white porcelain tableware and glass cups, they are much stronger than the black clay bowls and clay pots they have here.
Gongsun Zhan pondered that this was a good thing, so he asked Li Yizi if he could get something else. Li Yizi took it all over, and saw that Gongsun Chan was quite polite to him, as if he was bold, and gave Gongsun Chan an an idea and said: "Gongsun Zhoumu, you want to reward your subordinates, even if these things are cheap, but the amount you want is too large, plus the sea road is dangerous, and the loss back and forth is huge, I am afraid that these things will not be a small amount in your hands." Why don't we sell these things to the local wealthy people and make their money, so that you can reward your subordinates not only without spending their own money, but also collect the local wealth. ”
Gongsun Chan pondered again, this is also a good thing. Before I came, there were dozens of countries in Sanhan, although these countries were small like a joke, but there were some so-called royal families and nobles in every country, and they were all rich. When I came, I cleaned up a batch, but Guan Jing said that in the future, we will have to rule here for a long time, and we can't just rely on killing and looting, but also pacify and win over.
Therefore, it would be excellent if you earned all the money of these rich people and distributed it to your subordinates.
Gongsun Chan and Li Yizi hit it off, and Li Yizi really lived up to his expectations and brought two boatloads of good things to Gongsun Zhan, but the problem came again, originally the so-called rich people in Sanhan were also like a joke, many people buckled the rope and squeezed and accumulated for decades, and they might be able to change a set of white porcelain tableware.
How can this business be done? No one can go without eating or drinking, and use their life savings to change a set of utensils, right?
Gongsun Chan doesn't know anything about doing business, but he also understands a truth, doing business has to come and go, but there is nothing in Xianzhou that can be handled, and even Gongsun Chan himself often dislikes it. Then Li Yizi gave Gongsun Zhan another idea and said: "There is nothing to sell, we can sell people." ”
Li Yizi also said: "Jizhou is now becoming more and more stable, the living conditions are better, and the tax law has been reformed, and no one wants to be a slave anymore." Let's sell all the stubborn and disobedient ones in Xianzhou to Jizhou. ”
Gongsun Zhan thought about it, anyway, those who are not obedient will not eat for nothing, and if they are slaughtered, they will be slaughtered, if they can really get some money back, it will be regarded as waste reuse, so they agreed to Li Yizi. But Li Yizi himself didn't have a way to sell people, but he knew a brother who had a way in this area, and then introduced Le He to Gongsun Zhan.
Le He was doing a business without capital, and he looked much more rude than Li Yizi, and he didn't be polite to Gongsun Zan immediately, and said that the mainlanders are not stupid, you pick those crooked melons and inferior dates that are not obedient, and no one will buy them.
Therefore, there is a matter of three hundred and three Korean female slaves going to Jizhou.
…………
Le He lived up to his expectations and brought back a large amount of money to Gongsun Zhan, and Gongsun Zhan immediately asked Li Yizi to take the money and go to Jizhou to buy good things and come back. But Le Hedang also said that many of these female slaves do not know Chinese and cannot be sold at a high price, but the female dependents of those aristocratic families in Sanhan admire the Han Dynasty, and many of them can speak Chinese, and they will definitely be able to sell for a good price!
Gongsun Chan was thinking about whether to snatch and sell all the female dependents of the nobles of the Three Koreas, Guan Jing stood up in time and said: "Li Yizi and Le He will do this vicious plan when they have bad intentions!" ”
Gongsun Chan was shocked and hurriedly asked Guan Jing what the situation was.
Guan Jing said: "My lord, when we first arrived in Xianzhou, although the three Koreas were destroyed and each county was set up, there were still people who refused to tame and resisted. Moreover, although the Montenegrin Army in the north made an appointment with the lord and did not attack each other, we could not help but be vigilant. At this critical juncture, the Lord should appease Li Shu and gradually win the hearts of the people, so as to consolidate the foundation, how can he rob the rich and his daughters in exchange for wealth? ”
Gongsun Chan hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Le He Dang first said dissatisfiedly: "Can Guan Changshi not be so scary when he speaks?" I'm just running errands for Gongsun Zhoumu to make a little money. If you say that this business can't be done, let's just don't do it, or say that we are not afraid of lowering the price, and sell those who can't speak Chinese, anyway, making more and less money, it's all Gongsun Zhoumu's business, whether to do it or not, it is also Gongsun Zhoumu's decision. ”
Gongsun Zhan also felt that Guan Jing's words were a bit exaggerated, this is a good thing that can make money, and it is up to him to decide whether to do it or not, why did it become a conspiracy? However, Guan Jing, as a long history, is now in charge of the civil affairs of Xianzhou, and is also responsible for the supply of grain and grass for the army, but the people that Gongsun Zhan relies on very much are not easy to teach a lesson, but ask gently: "Shiqi, what do you think?" ”
Guan Jing said sincerely: "The lord wants to reward his subordinates with exquisite utensils from the mainland, and the ministers and colleagues all know that the lord loves him, but if we want to rule Xianzhou for a long time, we can't leave the old hatred gone and add new hatred." The minister thinks that one is a captive of Hao, and the other is a girl who cannot be supported by a poor family, we can buy it and sell it to the mainland, even if the price is low, we must not touch the female dependents of the aristocratic rich family. ”
Do you dare to sell people? Look at my brother, I was scared, this body was white and sweaty.
Le Hedang cried again: "Guan Changshi, don't you know, these captives are really not easy to sell. They don't understand what you say, they don't know what to do when they work, and they may make trouble when they encounter stubborn people, who wants to transport them to the mainland? It's really hard to work hard and not make money. ”
Guan Jing glared at Le He Dang fiercely, and then said to Gongsun Zhan: "My lord, according to the ministers, among His Majesty's rewards, the Xianzhou Governance Strategy is the real treasure. ”
