Dial someone? Wei Chong was taken aback in his heart, so in addition to the people who may be protected by his brother all the way, there are at least two groups of people who may not be suspicious, but there is still a look of doubt in his eyes, isn't it Lord Tsukasa Xin's personal soldiers bragging?

"Wei Guard, it seems that Yingzhou is indeed not very calm." Yang Yong sighed.

Wei Chong's face was slightly red, it was a fact that Yingzhou was complicated, and he couldn't explain it for his brother, so he had to say: "Son, don't you want to go to the market outside the city?" ”

"Go, why not? I'd like to see who is so interested in us. ”

Yang Shi's eyes flashed: "Son, why don't you arrest them?" ”

"Don't startle the snake, you send three people to counter-track and find their foothold first."

"Yes." Yang Shi quietly retreated, he made a few secret gestures, and the three pro-soldiers suddenly quietly left the team without a trace, hanging behind those stalkers, who were only paying attention to Yang Yong's team, without checking that they had been targeted by others.

Coming to the north city gate, there are only two teams of officers and soldiers guarding the city gate, whether they go out of the city or enter the city, they must be strictly checked, with Wei Chong here, Yang Yong and his party are naturally effortless to go out of the city, Yang Yong is worried that the three personal soldiers sent out to follow the city are inconvenient, and he whispered a few words to Wei Chong.

Wei Chong had no choice but to show the letter seal of the Assassin's Mansion to a captain guarding the city gate, and whispered a few words, the captain nodded slightly, and the group walked out of the city gate.

As soon as I stepped out of the city gate, although the trading market was still two miles away from the city, I immediately felt the sound of people boiling in my ears, and the various shouts of the market in the distance seemed to be in my ears.

Approaching the market, Yang Yong was a little shocked by the scene in front of him, and the entire city stretched for more than ten miles was an open-air market. Countless cattle, sheep, and horses were scattered around, with all kinds of furs, cloth, and porcelain in between...... It was piled up in a heap, and there were thousands of people of all ethnic groups haggling for it.

Wei Chong knew very well about this market, how many tribes traded here, and how far away their land was from here.

"Childe. They are Khitans, the closest to Yingzhou, less than a hundred miles away is the pasture of the Khitans, the Khitans are the richest because they are closest to us, their clothes are not much different from ours, you see, there are many people wearing our silk clothes from the Central Plains, but the various ornaments they wear are quite different from the Central Plains. ”

Yang Yong looked at the Khitan people that Wei Chong was pointing at. Sure enough, these Khitans are relatively wealthy, if it weren't for the big copper rings hanging from their ears and their hair and beards curly, they would be no different from the merchants in the mainland.

"Childe, they are Xi people, a little farther away from us than the Khitan, the conditions are a little worse, and the people who are only wearing leather clothes on this side are the people of Murowei, and they are not tall. But they are as strong as cattle, and their closest tribe to Yingzhou is also five hundred li, this is the Yan people, their local tribe is centered on Heishui, and Heishui is at least four thousand miles away from Yingzhou. ”

Luo Yi and the others were secretly speechless, and Liu Hu couldn't help but ask, "So far." Why do they come here to trade? ”

Wei Chong smiled: "Of course, there are only things they need here, they don't know how to weave, iron tools are scarce, and the high-quality fur can only be simply nitrated in their hands, and there is a strong wild smell on the body, if you exchange it here, you can immediately change it to soft and ambiguous cotton clothes, linen clothes, their fur has been processed by the Central Plains people, not only is it not good at taste." And it is glamorous, don't underestimate the worthless things in the Central Plains, when you get here, it is ten times the price, and two iron pots here can be exchanged for a good horse, and these people bring the iron pot back to the tribe, at least a few good horses can be replaced. ”

Yang Yong's eyes rolled around: "Why haven't you seen the Goguryeo people?" ”

"Childe is looking for Goguryeo people, there are very few Goguryeo people here?" Wei Chong replied.

"Why, don't the Goguryeo people have to change things?"

"Absolutely. However, the Goguryeo people also weaved cloth. Striking iron, the things here are all popular goods, they don't need it, what they need more is our silk, high-stop porcelain, and even snow sugar and other items, so the Goguryeo people are all in the city. ”

This is out of Yang Yong's surprise, iron-striking is not uncommon for all the tribes in the grassland, although they can't cast iron pots, but they are good at casting weapons, and being able to weave cloth means that the farming civilization of the Goguryeo people has greatly surpassed that of other ethnic groups, and their dependence on the Central Plains has become less. Moreover, when they have the ability to convey these materials to the other tribes of the grassland, the effect of the Central Plains Dynasty in using border cities to clamp down on the grassland ethnic groups will be greatly reduced, perhaps this is the reason why the later Sui and Tang dynasties must destroy Goguryeo.

Yang Yong took everyone around the entire market, saw that the market was in order, and thought of the neat soldiers at the gate of the city, he couldn't help nodding secretly, seeing that Wei Shikang was good at governing Yingzhou, his ability should be no problem, and then he had to check if there were any changes in the various ethnic groups on the grassland.

Knowing a rough idea, Yang Yong was no longer interested in the market, so he summoned Yang Shi and asked, "Is there anyone following behind?" ”

Yang Shi shook his head: "Childe, my subordinates are incompetent and can't detect it." ”

"Okay, leave them alone, let's go back." Yang Yong was a little disappointed, but he didn't blame Yang Shi, the market was full of people, and even if Yang Shi and the others kept their eyes open, it was unlikely that they would search for the person who was following them. Fortunately, there were three pro-soldiers staring at each other, and I could only hope that they would not lose people.

Not long after Yang Yong went out, Wei Shikang received information that someone was following Yang Yong in the Assassin's Mansion, and the three groups of people that Yang Shi found were actually not arranged by Wei Shikang, and Wei Shikang, as the direct controller of Yingzhou, had the power in his hands that was not comparable to those stalkers, so it was naturally not so easy to find.

Because of this, as soon as the three groups of people followed Yang Yong, they were immediately discovered by Wei Shikang, and his staff persuaded Wei Shikang: "My lord, Lord Tsukasa Xin is in great danger, do you want to remind me." ”

Wei Shikang shook his head: "No, they didn't find out the situation, it is impossible to deal with Lord Tsukasa Xin, these snakes and rats have not come out to move for a long time, and it is time to catch them all." ”

The spies of all ethnic groups in Yingzhou have never been interrupted, and another batch has been allocated and another batch has been added, because Yingzhou is too important, and the market alone, when it will be opened, and when it will be closed, will have a far-reaching impact on all ethnic groups in the grassland. Wei Shikang naturally didn't want his every move to be known by others, but usually these spies were lurking

is also a normal businessman, for the sake of the stability of the surrounding ethnic groups, Wei Shikang is unlucky.

Now that Yang Yongdi has arrived, Yingzhou is in a special period, and Wei Shikang naturally has to find a way to eliminate some hostile spies.

When he returned to the city, Yang Shi quickly rediscovered the person he was following. He really wanted to order a few personal soldiers to turn around and arrest the person who was following him for interrogation, but he didn't have Yang Yong's order, so he had to forcibly hold back.

Not long after Yang Yong returned to the Assassin's Mansion, the three personal soldiers sent out also came back one after another, but only one of them handed over to Yang Yong to complete the task, and wrote down the address where the person who followed him last landed, and the other two were lost. Yang Yong knew that it was no wonder that they were not familiar with the military camp state. It's good to have a catch.

In Wei Shikang's study, Wei Podi, who is responsible for commanding the secret spies of Yingzhou City, is reporting to Wei Shikang, Wei Podi is an orphan adopted by Wei Shikang, and has been following Wei Shikang for ten years.

"Khitans, Goguryeo." Wei Shikang muttered to himself. The Goguryeo people had long felt that Wei Shikang had bad intentions towards the Great Zhou, but the second group of Khitans participated, but Wei Shikang was puzzled, the Khitans were partially separated from Rouran, and now they are divided into eight departments, and they are not led in a unified manner. In the past two years, because the Khitan tribes had borrowed troops from Gao Baoning, they were afraid of causing retaliation from the Great Zhou, and frequently showed favor to the Great Zhou, but they did not expect that the Khitan people were not willing to be lonely now.

"Hmph, the tiger is not powerful, it is really a sick cat, and the Khitan people are so rampant." Wei Shikang slapped the table heavily: "It seems that he is going to kill chickens and monkeys." ”

"Lord Thorn Shi, Lord Tsukasin summons." A close confidant of the Assassin's Mansion replied.

"Got it, I'll be there shortly." Wei Shikang hurriedly gave a few orders to Wei Podi, who was reporting, and put the book reported by Wei Podi into his arms. Dressed up, he walked towards the courtyard where Yang Yong was.

There are several independent courtyards in the Assassin's Mansion, among which the largest courtyard is naturally vacant for Yang Yong to live in, and now all the people in this courtyard Assassin's Mansion have been withdrawn, and even the maid of the ring has not been left behind.

Seeing Yang Yong, Wei Shikang hurriedly saluted: "I don't know what the lord summoned the officials to come to, what do you order?" ”

Yang Yong took a sip of tea and put the cup down, Wei Shikang also had a heart. Although all kinds of utensils in the Thorn Mansion are old, they are antique. The tea set is even more boutique: "Wei Tingshi, please take a seat!" ”

"Master Xie." Wei Shikang sat down.

"This official is walking around the city today, Yingzhou is so prosperous, Wei Thorn History is really indispensable." Yang Yong praised first.

"Thank you for the compliment, this is what the lower officials should be."

"As an official, it benefits one party, but Yingzhou is the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not only to benefit the people, but more importantly, to maintain the safety of the court."

"Yes." Wei Shikang didn't know Yang Yong's intentions, so he had to nod his head and agree.

"As soon as this official left the house, he encountered three groups of people following and investigating, I don't know how to explain this Wei Thorn History?"

Wei Shikang only then knew Yang Yong's intention to summon him, and dared to love Yang Yong was dissatisfied with the person who was stalking, he smiled bitterly and said: "Lord Hui, all ethnic groups in Yingzhou are mixed, there are many spies, and when the adult comes out of the Assassin's Mansion, naturally someone will follow him, but the lower official has dug out the behind-the-scenes nest of the stalking adult, please take a look." After speaking, Wei Shikang got up and handed Yang Yong what he had found.

After taking the book handed over by Wei Shikang, Yang Yong also had to admire Wei Shikang's efficiency was far more amazing than his own soldiers, one of these three addresses was checked by Yang Yong's personal soldiers, but it was much more detailed, how many people were in it, what the background was, Wei Shikang wrote it clearly.

Yang Yong raised the book in his hand: "Then how does Wei Tingshi plan to deal with these three places." ”

Wei Shikang said: "My lord, the Goguryeo people can ignore it for the time being, but the Khitans are so rampant, when the lower official thought that he should give them a little color to see, the lower official has already ordered to go down and send people to destroy these two Khitan strongholds at night." ”

"Why did you let the Goguryeo people go?" When Yang Yong saw the name details provided by Wei Shikang, the first thing that came to mind was to get rid of the Goguryeo people first.

"My lord, the lower officials have received news that the Turks on the steppe have begun to move, and if it weren't for the fact that it's October now, I'm afraid the Turks will have to go south again." Speaking of which, Wei Shikang was a little worried about Zhong Zhong, Da Zhou had just experienced a rebellion, although it was quelled, but at this time it was just a false shelf, the treasury was empty, the soldiers were tired, and he was most afraid of another big war.

Fortunately, the Turks could only send troops after the beginning of spring, and the soldiers could get rest, but the treasury could not be replenished for a while. That's why Wei Shikang was patient with Goguryeo for the time being.

If the Great Zhou could have two or three years to prepare for war, Wei Shikang believed that the Great Zhou would have no problem dealing with both the Turks and Goguryeo under the rule of the prime minister. The most important thing now is to buy time.

Yang Yong shook his head: "Wei Tingshi, if we dial those two Khitan strongholds, will the Goguryeo people find out." ”

Wei Shikang nodded: "Of course the Goguryeo people will find out. ”

"If we only deal with the Khitans and not the Goguryeos, will they think that we are weak-hearted?"

"What the Lord means is that the Goguryeo people will also deal with it." Wei Shikang asked tentatively.

"Of course, we will deal with each other."

"Yes." Although Wei Xiaokang didn't fully believe Yang Yong's words, it was not a big deal to secretly exterminate a Goguryeo stronghold, this place was not the industry of the Goguryeo people on the surface, and the suppressed Goguryeo people could only suffer a dumb loss once, since Yang Yong insisted, he couldn't confront Yang Yong for this trivial matter.

It's just that Yang Yong's next sentence made Wei Shikang shocked: "At night, I personally led people to encircle and suppress the Goguryeo people." ”
