Zhao Anling's analysis is exhaustive, it should be said that it is not leaky, in terms of the current situation in the Central Plains and the national conditions of Xianguo, it will be easy to defeat the Jin army of 300,000 horses in eight or nine years, even now, the Jin army of 300,000 northern troops, Bailiyan is not in his eyes.

At that time, Xianguo and Jin turned against each other, and the Gongliang clan rebelled again, and the Xianguo could only join forces with Zhiguo to extinguish the Gongliang rebellion out of the best interests, and then join forces with Zhiguo to fight back against the Jin state. If he helps the Gongliang clan, Zhiguo will join forces with the eldest grandson and the Jin state to fight against the Xianguo.

There is no problem with the judgment of Zhiwang and Tao Yong, with the current technical background, even if it is Bailiyan, in the face of national interests, it is impossible to secretly help the Gongliang clan out of human affection, but the problem is precisely at the technical level.

The background of Zhiwang and Tao Yong's reference is the present, not ten years later.

The most optimistic estimate, seven or eight years later, the Xianguo individual firearms should be equipped one after another, the current pressure-resistant artillery steel research has been two years, the general has felt the law, another year or two, the real sense of the early artillery steel will be put into use, when the range of artillery will increase significantly, not to mention the Jin State, that is, the princes of the coalition army is still fat.

The reason why the Gongliang clan took the risk, Gongliang Xiu played a great role, although he didn't know Baili Yan's plan, but he knew that Baili Yan was powerful, and to a large extent, he looked farther than King Zhi and Tao Yong.

Seven or eight years later, the national strength of the Xian State increased greatly, and it was able to withstand the pressure from the three kingdoms of Jin, Zhi, and Changsun.

In addition to the variable of Xianguo, the unknown civilization on the other side of the ocean are variables, so there are too many factors that Zhiguo cannot control.

It is still difficult to say what the situation will be seven or eight years later, and Tao Yong is not young, and his descendants are not outstanding.

Zhao Anling's guidance was like seeing the sun, which made people suddenly, but it fueled Bailiyan's greater ambition.

That night, Zhao Anling was arranged to live in the east chamber, and in the second half of the night, Jiang Hao wore a black cloak and secretly entered the house through the back door, which was very mysterious. Jiang Jie introduced it into Bailiyan's study, and after closing the door, Jiang Hao took off his black cloak, revealing that cold face:

"Yongxing Hou has an important appointment with this official late at night?"

"Ben Hou wants to ask the chief manager about it."

"I don't know what Yongxing Hou wants to inquire about?"

"Ben Hou was passing by Junting Street when it was dark today, and happened to bump into a Jin State cargo team to transport goods to the prince's mansion, and one of the cars had two barrels of fifty catties of oil and some other goods. Does the chief know if the crown princess carries oil from the Jin Kingdom every time, or once in a while? ”

"The official knows that the crown princess has two barrels or three pokes of oil in the goods transported in December every year, but not one trip in June."

"So, once a year?"

"Roughly yes, but not in any year."

"In addition to these two barrels of oil, are there any other oils?"

"No, it's only two or three barrels at a time. I don't know what Yongxing Hou commanded? ”

"Do you know what those two barrels of oil are?"

"It's oil for people to eat."

"Is that rape oil, soybean oil, rice oil, or sesame oil?"

"Shhh...... I didn't pay attention to this official, but it was certainly not rape oil, soybean oil and sesame oil. I don't know what Yongxing Hou means? ”

"It's not surprising that my country needs to buy sesame oil from the Jin Kingdom, and there is also a shortage of supply from the Prince's Mansion, so why do the people of the Jin Kingdom need to get two barrels from the Jin State Division."

"Does Master Hou suspect that there is a problem with the oil?"

"Well, Ben Hou suspects that this oil may be the culprit that causes the crown princess and concubine to be infertile so far."

"Shhh...... Can the oil this man eat be poisonous? Jiang Hao said in surprise.

"There are some oils that you can't eat indiscriminately."

"Why don't you get some secrets?"

"Well, be careful, Ben Hou suspects that there is a clue in this oil, and it must not be easy to find. You must be careful, if you can't succeed, don't recklessly alarm the crown princess. In addition, before there is conclusive evidence, please hide this matter from the king for the time being, if there is no evidence, Ben Hou will have to bear a charge of framing and instigating. ”

"This official understands, please rest assured that Yongxing Hou."

Jiang Hao agreed, in fact, as soon as he returned to the palace, he handed the small report to King Xian the next day.

The next day, King Xian summoned Gao Xun, Nuo Yiyan, Bai Liyan, and Lu Gao to discuss the secret agreement in Bailing Garden, and at noon Nuo Yiyan invited Tao Yi to Bailing Garden to negotiate the final terms. At the same time, Bai Liyan set up a boat on the Fenglin River and invited Gongliangxiu to make an appointment.

The wind in winter is slightly cold, but it is not as biting as the cold wind in the north, and a hot pot is stewed in the boat, and the base is surging in the hot pot, exuding a rich spice flavor, adding a little warmth to this solemn winter. The table is full of slices of beef and sheep, as well as fresh seafood from the North Sea.

After several years of expansion, the department store in Guangxin's ice workshop and ice cellar has initially achieved large-scale production, with a large amount of ice supply capacity, and the seafood exported from Beihai to Shanling has also increased significantly, if it were not for the war, the fishery in Beihai would be more developed than that of the inland, but the price was not cheap, and it was still not ordinary people who could consume it.

"Doctor Gongliang, how does the hot pot taste in Chenling?"

"It seems that the spices used in the south are much richer than those used in the south, and if it is expected, Yongxinghou should have put the spices of the Central Plains."

"Those who know me are virtuous brothers, haha......"

"Hehe, where can I know Yongxing Hou's thoughts, it's just a matter of facts, if it weren't for the addition of spices and spices, which are special products of the Central Plains, how could Yongxing Hou ask me."

Gongliang Xiu said while shaking the beef and mutton with chopsticks, without the slightest politeness. Dipping in the sauce provided by Baili Yan, Gongliang Xiu was shocked:

"This sauce is not soy sauce?"

"Yes, it is marinated with shrimp, oyster sauce and scallops, and then boiled and refined in dark soy sauce to obtain oyster sauce sauce, with a little sugar, so it is salty, sweet and fragrant, and very mouthy."

"Then why is there no sale in the city?"

"What's the matter, Doctor Gongliang has traveled all over the city of Chenling?"

"The Marquis of Yongxing does not wait to see his own officials, how can he not see the way of your Excellency to govern the country and the country."

As the saying goes: "Laymen talk about strategy, insiders talk about logistics", and the same goes for the country, the layman looks at vanity, and the insider looks at the people's livelihood.

In the past few days, Gongliangxiu has visited the whole city of Chenling, especially the civilian residences in the west of the city, and has conducted in-depth field research, all of which have been visited one by one, including markets, market, vegetable markets, wine shops, restaurants, cloth shops, and even department stores and garbage heaps.

However, if the Xianguo is new and the Zhiguo does not have it, Gongliang Xiu will let people buy it, and then carefully calculate the type, cost and quality of the goods, so as to deduce the strength of the Xianguo economy.

As the capital, Chenling is a key city in the country with priority guarantee of material resources, the level of price level and the degree of richness, directly related to the economic production supply chain of various places, Gongliang Xiu's ability to command the army, in fact, is not as good as Gongliangsong, but on insight and strategy, many places Bailiyan once upon a time was ashamed of itself.

If it were someone else, how would they think that they would understand the reality of a country by investigating the material security and people's livelihood supply, and those who can do this can be Gongliangxiu alone, Zhao Anling, Zong Botai, and Bailiyan are all counted as one category.

"Don't hide it from the good doctor, this oyster sauce is not easy to come by, it is currently in the midst of the war, and the places are not peaceful, so the Yongxing Marquis Mansion only makes some every year, and the price is more expensive, and it is only for the use of the king and the eunuch, and there is no sale in the department store and the market. If the Gongliang doctor feels delicious, he can take the five altars back when he leaves. ”

"No, no, Yongxing Hou often said, eat people with short mouths and short hands, and accept the benefits of Yongxing Hou, don't my king ask me for the blame."

Gongliang Xiu quietly led out the voice outside the words, Baili Yan understood in his heart, and took over the words:

"Why, Dr. Gongliang is not satisfactory in the court?"

"Alas......" Gongliang Xiu sighed for a long time, and seemed to be very depressed: "I didn't expect it, Yongxing Hou's generation of male generals, King Xian not only did not reuse, but also cut off the Yongxing Hou's military power, and put him in the position of the great Sinong to do nothing, and felt unfair for the Yongxing Hou." ”

"Hehe, why did the Gongliang doctor say this, the battlefield is to serve my king, plough and plant, and share the worries of my king, what is the injustice. If you want to say that it is unfair, the soldiers who died in battle on the front line cannot be rewarded by the king, and they cannot be compensated by the government, which is the biggest injustice. ”

"Yongxinghou doesn't feel pity at all?"

"It's no shame. However, it is a good doctor, always holding a knife in his hand, ordering hundreds of thousands of young and strong, Ben Hou wants to come, King Zhi must be unable to sleep at night, and it is difficult to sleep and eat. ”

"Oh, how can the Marquis of Yongxing see it?"

"Huh...... Speculation is pure speculation, baseless words, come, drink. ”

Bai Liyan didn't continue to accept Gongliangxiu's words, it was obvious that Gongliangxiu was testing him. If it weren't for Zhao Anling's breakthrough yesterday, Bailiyan would have been brought into the middle by Gongliang Xiu today.

Gongliang Xiu's words did not have the slightest intention of his family rebellion, and he mentioned that Bailiyan was cut into the army, which not only implied that Bailiyan did not end well, but also implied that Gongliang's family would soon follow in his footsteps.

If Bailiyan continues to answer, there will only be one result, Gongliangxiu secretly let the news out, and finally it will reach the ears of King Xian sooner or later, and the worst result is undoubtedly that King Xian will continue to weaken Bailiyan's influence until it is completely eliminated.

In this way, Bailiyan obviously will not sit still, and finally form a Bailiyan and Gongliang clan echo each other, and in the future, a large area west of the Yongxing River to the east of the Sishui River will be independent.

Moreover, Gongliang's calculations are deeper, and the treasure hidden by Bailiyan is rich enough to rival the country, which is undoubtedly a big capital for rebellion in the future.

The more than 700,000 new subjects under the command of the Gongliang clan are all young and strong men and women, and they are a huge group attached to the Gongliang family, plus there are tens of thousands of foreign troops and 300,000 Zhenbei troops, after eating the eight or nine counties of the Sun Kingdom, it is like a vassal state. If Bailiyan rebels again, the two strongest forces in the Central Plains will merge, and no one in the world will be invincible.

Gongliang's cultivation is so deep that even if Baili Yan is a human being, it is difficult to calculate. After all, his scheming and insight are all based on the 5,000-year history of China in his previous life, and when he really encounters heart attackers such as Gongliangxiu, Zong Botai, and Zhao Anling, his methods are overstretched.
