Chapter 119: Chu State's Good Move, But Using the Wrong Person! 2/3
"This war is a contest between Vietnam and Wei, whoever dares to intervene will fight whom, by the way, how is the war situation between the Qing and Sheng countries now?"
"According to the report from the spies, the two kings of Qing and Sheng were also captured by the Wei army and destroyed the country!" The eunuch said softly.
"Haha, amazing, it's only been a few days, and two countries have been destroyed, even if they are placed in the Wind Country, Lone can't guarantee that he can destroy the two countries in just a dozen heads!" The Wind King said with admiration.
"That's okay, the territory of Wei is also bordered by our forces, and the situation of isolation and helplessness has been broken, so let's see the contest between Wei and Yue..................."
November 29th, the hour of the hour, the library of the library!
Wei Li has returned to the dynasty, and now the 70,000 troops of Wei have all been placed on the border of Gaobei County of Zheng State, ready to fight against the army of Yue!
In the Library Pavilion, Wei Li sat on the king's chair, and Meng Ge and He Qiu stood respectfully in front of them.
"All the gold and silver plundered from Qingguo and Shengguo will be sent to the Mint Division to make gold and silver for circulation!" Wei Li said to He Qiu.
The plundered gold and silver, some of which are gold bricks, and some of which are jewelry, cannot be directly used as circulating currency, and need to be made into gold ingots and silver ingots, and printed: "Dawei Qianzhuang"
"No!" He Qiu responded respectfully, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, with this batch of gold and silver, it just makes up for the few gold and silver left in my Great Wei, and when this batch of gold and silver is made into money and silver, you can buy food from the people, which can not only speed up the circulation of money, but also replenish the treasury of my Great Wei!" ”
"Well, but replenishment is supplementation, and the grain in the market must be managed, otherwise the people will not be able to buy grain if they have money, and money will not be money!" Wei Ya said with a solemn expression.
"Wechen understands!" He Qiu replied.
"By the way, look at this!" Wei Li took out two "stones" from his arms at this time, this stone was a little strange, one stone with a large number of silver spots, and one stone with a large number of copper-colored spots.
When He Qiu saw these two stones, his eyes widened, and he hurriedly took the two stones to look at, and after reading them, he couldn't help but exclaim; "Your Majesty, this is silver ore, and copper ore, this kind of stone can only be found near silver mines and copper mines, and it is also the standard for determining whether there is copper and silver ore, I don't know where did the king know?"
As the ruler of the internal history of Su and in charge of the treasury, he was very sensitive to gold, silver and copper, and at a glance he could see that these two stones were silver ore and copper ore.
Wei Ya didn't speak, but took out a parchment map, and then pointed to the map, a place called Dashanling more than 20 miles outside Chiliang, "Lone was picked up here, this matter is kept secret for the time being, don't make a noise, you send a few people with letters to investigate, and after the survey, secretly mine!" Wei Ya said in a deep tone.
Once the news of the silver mine here comes out, it will be very right, whether it is the country of wind or the country of Chu, they will find an excuse to make a little money.
That's right, Wei Li put all the mines rewarded by the system there, and now there is silver and copper all over the ground, these two pieces of silver ore and copper ore are all knocked out by Wei Ya casually, so there are three copper mines and two silver mines there, once they are excavated, they will absolutely shock all the countries in the world, so this matter must be kept secret, otherwise, Wei may be destroyed because of these huge minerals.
"No!" He Qiu said with a straight face, he also knew that this matter was not trivial, once it was spread, it would be even more terrible than the invasion of the Yue Kingdom!
"You go down first!" Wei Li said to He Qiu, He Qiu nodded proudly, then bowed and left the library pavilion.
After He Qiu left, Wei Ya said to Meng Ge: "Changgong, where is Yue Guo now?" ”
"It's almost time to Gaobei County, according to the frontline scouts, the people of Zheng Guo in Gaobei County have all been transferred, as if they are vacating land and fighting a decisive battle with us!" Meng Ge said with a look of solemnity.
"Huh, this battle is not trivial, Lone will inevitably drive the expedition, by the way, what is the attitude of the Wind Country towards this?" Wei Li raised his eyebrows and asked.
"The Wind Country has not supported us with a single soldier, but news has come from the Wind Country that 30,000 troops have been sent to display the border pass of the Lu State!" Meng Ge replied.
Wei Li smiled, and when Meng Ge saw this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Your Majesty, why are you laughing?" The Wind Nation didn't send troops to help, and this war was entirely on our own! ”
"It's because of himself that Lone can laugh, and Lone understands what Chu Guo means!" Wei Ya smiled with a sudden realization.
Hearing this, Meng Ge's brows suddenly furrowed, and he looked dazed.
"Although the country of Feng does not send troops, it has already deployed troops on the border of the country of Lu, which means to help us contain the country of Lu, prevent the country of Lu from sending troops to harass us, and let us fight with the country of Yue wholeheartedly, plus the last time the state of Chu supported our war horses, grain and grass weapons, we can conclude that the state of Chu is testing us to see how our strength is!"
"If we succeed in defeating the Yue State, it means that our Wei State has the strength to contain Qi Yue, and will support us vigorously and make us stronger, if we are defeated, the Chu State will not pay attention to us, and it will not care about us, our Wei State will perish, and the Chu State will not lose anything, at most it will lose the war horses and ordnance that support it, these war horses and ordnance will be drizzle for the big country of Chu!"
"Anyway, Chu Guo wants to see if we have the qualifications worthy of Chu State's support, and whether we have the qualifications to become Chu State's pawns!"
Wei Li patiently analyzed and explained.
"I see!" Meng Ge couldn't help but nodded.
"According to what the king said, the Chu State will support my Great Wei in a big way, isn't the Chu State worried that we are too strong and not controlled by them?" Meng Ge asked.
"Haha!" Wei Li chuckled, "Could it be that you have forgotten the intentions of the Chu State?" The State of Chu wants us to contain Qi Yue, and at the same time, Qi Yue is also restraining us, maybe the King of Chu thinks that with Qi Yue to contain the Wei State, the Wei State will not develop to the point of threatening the Chu State at all! ”
"Got it!" Meng Ge finally understood, but his brows were still tightly locked, according to what Wei Li said, wouldn't it be that Wei Guo would not be able to develop? Will you become a pawn of the state of Chu forever?
Wei Ya saw that Meng Ge had been frowning, as if he had guessed through Meng Ge's thoughts, and said, "Do you think that according to Gu, the Wei State will not be able to develop and will always become a pawn of the Chu State?" ”
"Uh...."
Meng Ge was shocked, and his heart showed admiration, this can be guessed, can he read minds?
"Actually, who is the chess piece and who is the chess player, who knows?" Wei Li smiled mysteriously.
Chu Guo's move is definitely a good move, Wei Li admired it from the bottom of his heart, but he used it with the wrong person and used it on his own systematic body.
