Gao Tang got a drinking friend, and he was naturally happy. Not only that, but he will also be happy because Pingliangzhou City has become bigger and more prosperous. It can be said that today in Pingliang Prefecture is what he has watched grow up with.

Although the current prosperity is not as good as that of Cheonanfu, it is also on a par with some large provincial capitals.

Standing on the wide and bustling streets, Tang Feng felt that it was like a village suddenly becoming a big city, which was a bit incredible. Although he watched every day. But the results still surprised him.

Pingliangzhou City developed proudly because of the war, which is indeed a miracle.

But Gao Tang was more concerned about the war. The harassment army of the four roads, some of them succeed and some fail, this is a very normal thing. The imperial court said that if it could occupy it, it would occupy it, but until now, the Fourth Route Army has not occupied a single place. This also reflects the strength of the Tatar army's defense.

In this case, he had to react like the imperial court, so he wrote a letter to Wu Qing, who was far away in Tian'an Mansion. Wu Qing read the letter, but he didn't react much, it didn't occupy the area, it was not the main thing, and he didn't talk about it until the morning of the next day.

Liu Yong didn't care, as long as it was harassment, making the Tatar slaves unstable and always worried, then the goal would be achieved.

But one thing is certain, the trade route of the Tatar slaves to the west was basically blocked, and if the goods of the Great Yang Dynasty wanted to be transported to the western countries, they had to pass through the Great Desert, bypass the Shenlong Mountain, and pass through the Gobi to the western countries.

In this way, the journey of half a year will become a year and a half, and there will be no good roads, and the loss of goods will increase. In this way, it caused great difficulties for the merchants of the western countries. Their motivation has been greatly reduced.

In the palace of the Great Yang Dynasty, in the main hall, Naleng is thundering for this. I saw him directly get off the dragon chair and walk around the main hall. Suddenly, he stopped and said to the important ministers of the military and political departments: "You quickly come up with an idea to ensure the passage to the western countries. ”

The general said: "Holy Lord, Pingliang Prefecture, the most direct passage from Middle-earth to the west, has been occupied by the Han army. Although this second passage through Shenlong Mountain is not easy to walk, it can be regarded as a shortcut. It's a pity that most of this road is in the mountains, and it is winding and long, and our forces are limited, so it is impossible to cover it all. This also gave the Han army a gap to block the trade routes. Our army is also powerless! ”

Naleng sat back on Long Tianyi and said, "If it doesn't work, send more troops to collect this trade route." ”

The general said: "If you return to the Holy Lord, if you transfer troops, the defense of other places will become weak, and it will give the Han army an opportunity." To protect the entire road, it is not enough to have an army of 200,000. ”

"What then?" Nalen asked anxiously.

The general thought for a moment and said, "The minister has not thought of a way for the time being. ”

"Then you'll have to think about it quickly! I know that many workshops are starting to overstock. It's going to rot if no one buys it. At that time, the handicraft workshop, which had just begun to improve, was about to become depressed again. Naleng said eagerly.

The general said: "Holy Lord, if you really can't do it, you have to transfer troops from the Beijing Division. As far as the minister knows, the defense of the army in various places can no longer be reduced. The Han army is at risk of coming at any time, and it is not a joke. ”

Na Leng thought for a while and said, "You can transfer troops from the Beijing Division, but not too much, I will transfer some more from Mobei." I must protect the trade routes for me and keep them open. ”

"It's holy." The general bowed and said.

"Let's do it!" Naleng said.

The general retreated.

Nalen asked Lenta again: "Prime Minister, the Han army in the west has been harassing a lot recently, what are their intentions?" ”

Lenta thought for a moment and said, "Back to the Holy Lord, the Han army may be testing us to see if we have the idea of going to war in an all-out way. ”

"All-out war?" Na Leng asked in a daze.

Lenta said: "Yes, Chenchai, it is likely that the Hua Han Dynasty wants to start an all-out war with us. ”

"Then fight, why tempt?" Nalen didn't quite understand what Lunta meant.

Lenta thought for a moment and said, "This minister doesn't understand either. ”

At this time, one of the ministers said: "Holy Lord, the minister thinks that the Han army is not going to start a full-scale war with us, they at least want to stop our economic development. ”

"Oh? How so? Nalen asked.

The minister said, "Holy Lord, the intention of this move to block the trade route is obvious. ”

"Hmm!" Naleng nodded after listening.

The minister continued: "Holy Lord, in fact, there is no need for the Hua Han Dynasty to start a full-scale war with our Dayang Dynasty at all, as long as it consumes our economy and hinders our development everywhere, then they will win without a fight." The minister thought that this was the strategy of the Hua Han Dynasty. ”

Listening to the minister's words, the whole audience was still. Including Nalen and Lunta.

After being silent for a long time, Na Leng nodded and said, "Your judgment may be right." In this way, the military risk of our Great Yang Dynasty will be low. ”

Lenta said: "Holy Lord, the defense must still be done well, and you can't slack off, these are all speculations. ”

Naleng nodded again and said, "Well, what the prime minister said is extremely true, and no conclusions can be drawn without conclusive evidence. At present, it is necessary to ensure that the trade routes to the western countries are unimpeded. ”

Lenta said, "Holy Lord, please rest assured, the Great General will be able to handle this matter." ”

Listening to Lenta's words, Naleng could only nod helplessly. Said: "I hope so! Since losing the land south of the Tianjiang River, I have never heard a single piece of good news. ”

Lenta said: "The Holy One should not be sentimental, it is not difficult to ensure the smooth flow of trade routes. This mountain road is still far from Pingliang Prefecture, which was controlled by the Han army. It's our territory. ”

"I hope so!" Now, that's what Naleng will say.

Next, I looked at a few other things. Of course, the most important thing is the resumption of agricultural production.

Lenta said: "Your Excellency, the minister received a national statistic yesterday, and from the autumn of this year to the present, the amount of land abandoned has decreased by eighty percent compared with last year. This means that most of the country's fields are cultivated. This depends on policy changes and tax reductions. ”

Nalen nodded and said, "This is the good news I heard. ”

Lenta said, "Holy Lord, this is of course good news. But a lot of the land is cultivated by our Tatars, and as for the yield, this is a matter of indecisiveness! ”

"Then find a Han Chinese as a guide?" Naleng said.

Lunta said: "Shengshang, there are few Han people, and most of them are reluctant to communicate with us. ”

"Bastard!" It's on fire. The return of the financial empire
