The Song army looked north at the situation in Xiping Mansion in Western Xia, which was an out-and-out vampire act, and it would not take too long for such a war breath to suck the last drop of blood from Western Xia. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Those spies deployed by the Seed Master Dao in the strategic towns of Western Xia, through various channels, more and more news was sent to Gao Fangping. It is said that under the breath of war, the Western Xia magnates participated in the grain grabbing, including Xiao Heda, who was also desperate to collect all the materials that could be used for military supplies, so this made the Western Xia basically in a state of cannibalism, and the big-headed civilians were already crying blind.

In the area north of Xiping Province, more and more people, even entire tribes, are fleeing in formation, and they want to move south to the area occupied by the Song army to survive. Some of them were able to come with a small number of cattle and horses, and most of them were harmonized by the warlords of the military districts.

That's the reality.

The maintenance of stability in Western Xia is not a small black house, it will become an establishment to kill an entire tribe.

This is very cruel, but it is the interpretation of backwardness and death. Therefore, this time, the tactic of looking north to Xiping Mansion and not fighting hard is also Gao's "productivity art of war".

That's where the real reload comes in. More than four years ago, Gao Fangping began to work hard in some parts of the Song Kingdom, and now the stamina is getting stronger and stronger, coupled with the beauty of the Tiangong Works, the Hetao area controlled by the Western Xia is short of water and forage.

And Gao Fangping has the Daimyofu, Jiangzhou, and Bianjing as bases, and has enough confidence to consume it so much, no matter how many Western Xia civilians come, no matter how many cattle and horses they bring, Gao Fangping can appease them with the food they most desire now, and exchange it for the most scarce strategic materials in the Great Song Dynasty in their hands.

Except for Gao Fangping himself, no one knows how obscene Gao Fangping is.

The damage to Western Xia this time is the bottom of the kettle, compared to the hundreds of thousands of elites annihilated in the Battle of Hezhongfu, it is nothing.

In view of the fact that since the north looked at Xiping Mansion, although there were no real large-scale battles, relying on Gao's art of war, Gao Fangping's troops obtained more and more war horses and other materials cheaply.

Therefore, the big shark in Yuncheng couldn't sit still, and personally brought his Jurchen warriors to Yaode City to talk with Gao Fangping.

"Xiangye's plan this time is too big, it's really high." The Jurchens once sighed and said, "It's so easy, you have stabilized the occupied area without blood, and harvested so many good horses, the villains have gone to the horse ring to check, most of them are only two-year-olds, when they are formally trained, they can't be wasted by destroying the heavens, if you don't practice these horses well at this time, you will not be qualified war horses after being finalized." ”

Zeng Lang was right, and it was precisely because of the immaturity of the teeth that these strategic materials were temporarily in the hands of the Western Xia civilians, and were not reconciled by the Western Xia court, so they were transferred to Gao Fangping's hands at a very low price.

Gao Fangping looked at Zeng Lang with ill will: "You are just a Jurchen barbarian, don't talk crookedly here, you'd better have a letter of introduction here?" ”

Zeng Lane took out the document and said: "The villain really has it, this is issued by Ma Zheng of the Great Song Dynasty and Zeng Shicheng, the county lieutenant of Yuncheng, please take a look." ”

Gao Fangping took a look, it was really.

Ma Zheng's bureaucrats, who are not taken seriously by Gao Fangping, can be ignored. However, on the whole, Zeng Shicheng's old subordinate is also Gao Fangping's old subordinate, not a good thing, but he is also a witty existence, and his current volume is not small, so he will be given two points for face.

To put it bluntly, relying on their relationship, he took a fancy to this batch of horses on the battlefield of Western Xia and wanted to get a piece of the pie.

"Okay, I have a total of 35,000 troops, and there are too many horses at the moment, and for me Gao Fangping, I really don't need too many cavalry, just enough. So how much can you eat? Gao Fangping said.

Zeng Lang licked his mouth and said: "As much as you have, the villain can eat as much as you want." ”

Gao Fangping couldn't help but be a little impressed by this big shark, and he didn't know how much money he had hidden in the end? It's such a big breath.

But I can only smile bitterly when I think about it, the Great Song Dynasty is so short of horses, and in such a big black hole of military spending, he once relied on the relationship between the old minister Zeng Bu, and he is also one of the "military-industrial complexes", so after so many years of accumulation, it is not surprising that his family background is a black hole.

No wonder this dog can be in "Water Margin" on the 1st, opening Shi Wengong's salary of 50,000 yuan. If this price is calculated as purchasing power, the salary is about the same as that of future Apple CEOs.

"Lao Zeng, I can give you as many horses as you want, the key is the price." Gao Fangping Road.

Zeng Lang said with a smile: "In terms of price, I heard that the horses you got in the occupied area are extremely cheap, almost free......"

Gao Fangping raised his hand like a big bad wolf and stopped: "Don't come to this set, how much I get it at a price, it's my business, and it has nothing to do with you." It's no problem for you to come and buy a war horse, but it depends on the market price, not my cost price. ”

Zeng Lang said embarrassedly: "There is no need to do this, the lowly position is also for the service of the Great Song Dynasty, the lowly position entrusted by the Great Song Dynasty Ma Zheng is for a reason, the war horses trained by my Zeng Tou City are all qualified, swiftness, endurance, explosiveness, and the degree of prohibition of the order, that is a reputation." ”

"But it's useless to say anything. Here in my Gao Fangping, you are not irreplaceable, my horse farm in Yuncheng, Duan Jinzhu and Ma Jun under my command, after all these years of research and development and progress, not to mention doing better than you, but can already replace your Jurchen's set. Gao Fangping said: "So there is one thing you need to pay great attention to, even if you do things for Ma Zheng, you can't collect horses in the occupied area like me." As for the war horses in the occupied areas of Western Xia, they seem to be cheap, but to put it bluntly, this is one of the results of the many bloody battles of the army on the western front, not the interests of the diplomatic and economic bureaucrats. Only I, the Northern Transshipment Division, are qualified to buy at such a price, this is the essence, do you understand? ”

Zeng blinked his eyes and pretended not to understand.

Speaking of which, he was in such a hurry to come to the northwest because he couldn't understand that Gao Fangping could collect the horse at that crazy low price, so he was not convinced, and wanted to use the reputation of Ma Zheng, a central enterprise, to participate in the acquisition of war horses and bring them back.

In the past, he would have succeeded, and he really snatched such benefits from the hands of the master of the plant, it was very simple, and he bribed the then handsome ministers Tong Guan and Cai Jing with a lot of money. However, this time is different, Gao Fangping does not need a bribe. And this is not the Song realm, the Great Song Law is useless here, and Ma Zheng's "free market" is not protected. It is not possible to bid for the horse in the name of Ma Zheng and the Northwest Transshipment Division.

The big shark Gao Fangping has already said very seriously, and the implication is that no matter who you enter, if you want to subvert this rule, you must die more than the people in the Northwest War. There's nothing wrong with this, this is the rules of the game in the universe, Gao Fangping used the blood game of 100,000 soldiers and civilians in the northwest to come to the existing war dividend, if you want to subvert the participants of this result, don't you die 250,000 people are embarrassed?

Seeing that Zeng Rong pretended not to understand, with a cute face, Gao Fangping said impatiently: "Let me tell you this, Zeng Rong, Ma Zheng does not have the administrative effect outside the Great Song Dynasty, here, except for my Northern Transshipment Division, which has the right to buy Western Xia cattle and horses, I hid from feeding the dogs when I found other things." There is only one circumstance that can deprive me of my franchise, and that is to defeat our western army and drive us out of this land, is it not simple? ”

Zeng Lang deliberately frightened and said: "If your words like this are spread, will you be suspected of being a mercenary?" ”

Gao Fangping smiled and twitched the Son of Heaven sword to put it on the table, touched his chin and said, "So, I'm going to hack the person who heard it to death?" ”

Seeing that the executioner Ju Jing stepped forward with a cold face, Zeng Lang, who had already learned the methods of the Great Demon King in Yuncheng, hurriedly slapped his mouth and said: "Look at the villain's stinky mouth, look at the villain's stinky mouth...... The villain is unintentional, of course, no one dares to question Xiangye's loyalty to the Great Song Dynasty. Xiangye's rules are really simple. ”

"Okay, then, let's talk about the price of the horses." Gao Fangping Road.

Zeng Lang cried and hugged his fists and said: "Xiangye Mingjian, if the price is too high, for example, according to the market price of the Great Song Horse Market, then the humble position cannot be purchased, and Ma Zheng will not take over, you really only have to spend your own energy to train those horses." ”

Gao Fangping said: "I have always been righteous, of course I will not eat all the profits, I also understand, you and Ma Zheng wear a pair of pants, in the chain of armament interests of the Great Song Dynasty, a lot of shares are in the hands of Ma Zheng, no kickbacks and benefits, of course they will not buy my horse, but would rather buy inferior horses elsewhere at a high price, and finally take it to fool the bureaucrats of Sanya, I am not wrong, how can there be anything new under the sun." ”

I had an embarrassing thought, your circle is just this virtue, and this is not a rule I have made.

Gao Fangping continued: "So, the market price of these horses is actually all the profit margins this time, it just depends on how we divide them." ”

Zeng said: "Yes, don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, Xiangye, you just say directly, you just have to occupy a few layers." I hope to be as gentle as possible, you know, I heard earlier that you carved up the interests of military spending in Bianjing, and it has caused too much chaos, and then because of the start of the Northwest War, you took the opportunity to embezzle a lot, and now there are too many people who are dissatisfied. Military horses are also a chain of military spending. ”

Gao Fangping said: "I don't have a big appetite, six floors." My Northwest Transit Division wants six floors this time, and the remaining four floors, you Zengtou City, Ma Zheng, and the bureaucrats of the imperial court go to divide privately, I don't think I can see it. ”

Zeng Lang's cheeks twitched slightly, his final plan here was to give Gao Fangping four layers.

Because he was afraid of being hacked to death, he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately now, so he tried to stretch out his slap and say, "Is it okay on the fifth floor?" ”

Gao Fangping waved his hand and said: "Don't sell it, I will raise these horses myself, and after raising them, the Western Army will purchase them by itself." ”

Zeng Lang Waterfall Khan said: "My Xiangye, business is not like this. You need to share too much energy, and you know in your heart that the military expenses allocated by the imperial court to the Western Army are limited, this is not your final say, the Western Army cannot afford these horses at all, even if you forcibly lend money to the Western Army, it will not be approved by the Privy Council, let alone the approval of the household department and the money bank, because everyone knows that the loan to the Western Army must be a bad debt, and the Western Army cannot pay it back, even if you get these horses for free, the Western Army cannot support the consumption and maintenance of so many horses. ”
