Chapter 490: Temperance Yunzhou

Qin forgot to take the battle exploits of Luofeng Valley and send it to the imperial court, and the reward of the imperial court came down. Qin Wanglian was promoted two levels in a row, and was named the general of Ningyuan under the fifth grade, and served as the envoy of Yunzhou Jiedu. once again refreshed the record for the speed of promotion in the Great Yan Dynasty.

At the same time, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the eunuch who gave the order secretly told Qin Forget that Liu Jian was also named General Ningyuan and served as the envoy of Xinzhou Jiedu. The imperial court also ordered him to exterminate Wang Gan of Yingzhou before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Feng Shijun, the former Tongzhou Army and now the chief general of the Blue Wolf Army, was named the general of the cavalry from Wupin, only one level lower than Qin Wang.

The eunuch who sent away the herald, Qin Wang's brows tightened, and he hurriedly called his subordinates for a meeting.

"The tiger devours the wolf, and the court is calculating." Listening to Qin Forget's words about the meaning of the imperial court, Dong Zhuang took the lead in speaking.

"Yes, Huang Jinshan has long been removed from the post of Yunzhou Assassin, and the imperial court should be very dissatisfied with his love. Even with that yellow order, he became a thorn in the side of the imperial court. But the imperial court is reluctant to mess up the cornucopia of the tea and horse market, this is to let us take action to deal with them. But with our strength, it would be humiliating to compete with the two. Qin Forget smiled bitterly, "Tianxiang, how is the strength of these two people?" ”

"The latest intelligence shows that because these two people occupy the land transportation arteries of the merchants of the Qi, Yan, and Jin Kingdoms to Chicheng, they have exploited the merchants of the Three Kingdoms. Both of them also had large-scale caravans that came directly to Akagi to trade, and they made a lot of profits. The profit of the Golden Mountain should be almost six million taels, and Huang Ling also has three million taels. They used these coins to expand their army, and now Huang Jinshan has an army of 120,000 and Huang Ling has an army of 50,000. Dong Tianxiang said in detail.

"Listen, listen, I've said a long time ago that we're growing, and those who are much thicker than us are growing, and they're growing much faster than we are. The court said simply, what do we use to compete with them? Qin Forget was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the strength of the two of them had swelled to this point.

"Lao Dong, expand the army, we must expand the army. We now have 20,000 horses, which is still not enough, and we will expand our army by 30,000. But remember, there are not many soldiers. Qin Forget said to Dong Zhuang.

"Yes, I have this number of reserve soldiers, and they have been training for four or five months, and they can directly form an army independently." Dong Zhuang nodded, "It's just this officer......"

"Last time, Xue Zangfeng was good, let him lead 10,000 people alone, and the Chengwu under him was also good, he could also lead 10,000 people alone. General Cheng's crash course for officers is coming to an end, and he is also allowed to lead 10,000 people alone. Qin Forget thought for a while and said.

"They alone have 10,000 men?" Dong Zhuang looked at Qin Forget in surprise, "General, now these old men Ding Chen, Luo Gang, and Wang Ping are only in charge of an army of 2,500 people, and the three of them have just joined Chicheng, and the troops they lead are four times that of them, I'm afraid they have ideas." ”

"If you have an opinion, keep it for me, don't think about it if you can't figure it out." Qin Forget said coldly

"It's not that I don't take care of my old brothers, they are born and die, and it is right to take care of them." But you see, can their abilities provoke the beams? This time, Feng Shijun won the first military name of our Akagi, and I hope to give them a wake-up call. All three are veterans and I believe in their abilities. ”

"It's good that they're still young, and they need to study hard." felt that what Qin Forgot said was very reasonable, so he agreed, "When I mentioned Xue Zangfeng, I remembered, his daughter was terrible, he formed a female cavalry, and there was a decent one, the little girl let go, she wanted to be the first female general in Chicheng." ”

"Women's cavalry? Nonsense, where did she come from? Where did the weapons and armor come from? Qin Forget frowned and asked.

"Then the girl of the Xue family is very smart, and her relationship with Miss Huang, Miss Qin and Mrs. Chen is the same as that of her own sisters, and she even recognized Aunt Xiu as her godmother, with their support, aren't these things easy to catch?" Dong Zhuang smiled bitterly, "As for the source of soldiers, it's simple, we have a widowed and sturdy woman in Chicheng, and she recruited more than 300 people without much effort." I heard that Miss Huang and Miss Qin also joined in and trained at the nursery every day. has Aunt Duan to help train, but she still looks good. ”

"Well, we've always said that women can hold up half the sky, and they're really here." Hearing that Aunt Xiu, Aunt Duan, Huang Chuchu and others were involved, Qin Forget also smiled bitterly, he couldn't do anything to them now.

"yes." Dong Zhuang also smiled bitterly and shook his head, "And their equipment is very luxurious, thousands of high-headed horses, tailor-made excellent armor, and all the hundred refining horizontal swords, everyone else who looks at them is blushing." This Xue girl didn't know what method she used, and she recruited dozens of Khitan women, and her combat effectiveness should not be underestimated. ”

"Forget it, let them go. It's also a guarantee to have them stationed in a nursery. Qin Wu shook his head and decided to ignore them, "Okay, let's get down to business." ”

"General, my subordinates think that the head-on conflict with them can be delayed." Yin Xian thought for a while, "This move by the imperial court is more like provoking our relationship with the two yellows. The general is right, it is impossible for the imperial court to let the tea and horse market be beaten to pieces, as long as we can find a way to curb the two yellows, it will also be an explanation to the imperial court. ”

Yin Xian's words aroused everyone's approval, and everyone understood that the tea and horse market had only been opened for the first year, and the imperial court, which had just tasted the sweetness, would not allow anyone to influence it.

"Find a way to contain him? How easy it is to say, Huang Ling of the Golden Mountain Chen Bing Yunbei County, and Huang Ling stared at him fiercely at the Flying Fox Mouth, which caused today's balanced situation. If we break it, the consequences are not something we can bear. Qin Forget smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Forget it, let's take one step at a time, there is always a way." The worst outcome is that we have nothing to do, and the court can't do anything to us. ”

"Yes, my subordinates also think that the two yellows are not a serious matter. However, Liu Jian and General Liu were also sealed

is a general Ning Yuan, the envoy of the Xinzhou Festival, which is a bit meaningful. Wang Wen also agreed.

"The small Chicheng Army actually has two generals Ning Yuan and two jiedu envoys. There is also General Feng of the Blue Wolf Army, who is only one level lower than the general, the general, the heart of the court, it is obvious. Jin Cheng also spoke.

"How can I not understand the meaning of the imperial court? But it's not a big deal, I believe in Lao Liu's personality. If he wants to have two hearts for me, then today's Akagi is his. He was unmoved by such a good opportunity in the Battle of Akagi, and now it is even more impossible to give birth to two hearts. As for General Feng, it's not a problem, I just sent him 2,000 cavalry, and if he has two hearts, he will have to weigh it. Qin Wang said confidently.

"What I'm most worried about is the order given to him by the imperial court, before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Wang Gan of Yingzhou must be exterminated, which is an almost impossible task for the tens of thousands of sailors under his command. The imperial court's attitude this time was very ambiguous, and it did not give any explanation on the ownership of the Blue Wolf Army. According to the military system of the imperial court and the strength of the first army, our two generals Ning Yuan are not qualified to be transferred. ”

"The general is right, if you really want to send troops, the general and General Liu will definitely not be in accordance with the rules when they mobilize the Blue Wolf Army, and it is even more difficult for us to send troops directly in Chicheng. The imperial court is deliberately using the Blood Lotus Army to consume our strength. We still aroused the suspicion of the imperial court. Wang Wen couldn't help but nod.

"Now that our family has a great cause, and with the experience of the Golden Mountain, the imperial court will definitely have the means of checks and balances." Qin Forget didn't look worried, "It's not a big deal, as long as we take into account the interests of the imperial court, the imperial court won't do anything to us." I've been back for a while, and everyone is telling us how we're doing in Akagi. Wang Wen, you speak first. ”

"Yes." Wang Wen agreed, "The wharf has been completed, and it can dock thirty large ships of more than 600 stones and two hundred other large and small ships at the same time." The main roads in the two counties have also been completed, and they should be completed by the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. The fortresses in Chicheng and Yexian are progressing about the same, and they have completed the renovation of the foundations, and the main body of the city wall is now being built. ”

After Wang Ming was transferred to Xinzhou to help Gufeng, Wang Wen took over the renovation of the city walls of the two counties, and now it seems that the progress is not slow, and Qin Wang is also very satisfied.

"We're not idle here." After Wang Wen finished speaking, Jincheng said, "Although the tea and horse market has long been closed, the outside has been doing business with the Khitan people in the past few months, which is also a very common phenomenon, and there are still many merchants in Chicheng doing business here." There are also hundreds of thousands of silver coming in every month. In addition, our own paper workshop and furniture workshop, which I told the general earlier, have been completed and put into production. The Yidanqing we produced is simply a fine product, and it is very popular with the powerful people of all countries, and it is sold for a hundred taels of silver per foot, which is simply more expensive than gold. There are also those precious furniture, which are also very popular with them, and in just a few months, they have earned us more than 70,000 taels of silver.
