Hearing Du Jia's words, Yue Fei couldn't help but look at Yanzhou on his fingers.

Yanzhou is generally located in the north of Yuzhou, the east of Liangzhou, the male of Jizhou, the northwest of Qingzhou, the place is not big, but because of its proximity to the Central Plains, Jishui and the Yellow River flow through it, it is also very rich, the population is also large, and the most important thing is that it is the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, the literary style is very strong since ancient times, it is said that three or four out of ten officials in the world come from here.

Under the rule of Yanzhou, there are 72 counties in Chenliu, Dongjun, Rencheng, Taishan, Jibei, Shanyang, Jiyin, and Dongping.

His gaze suddenly stopped at Mount Tai Mansion here, Mount Tai is the head of the five mountains, the poet Saint Du Fu has sent a "will be the top of the Ling, a glance at the mountains are small" admiration, Qin Shi Huang led by the kings of all generations have also come here to carry out the Zen, its status is self-evident, and it itself is a military location, in the surrounding is a horse in the terrain of Pingchuan, who can get this city is equivalent to mastering the key and commanding heights of the entire Yanzhou.

Therefore, he couldn't help blurting out: "Naturally, it should be Taishan Mansion." But as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it, what was he doing, he actually gave advice for Du Jia, isn't this for the tiger?

Du Jia was also quite surprised, he just asked casually, in fact, he didn't expect him to answer, and the rest of the generals also had different expressions, Hu Yanzhuo nodded and said: "Yes, Pengju's opinion is exactly what I want, this Taishan Mansion is the roof of Yanzhou, if it is in our hands, the imperial court will be very uncomfortable, they must maintain a high degree of vigilance at all times, in case we send troops from here - it must be condescending and overwhelming, and then this mansion alone will be enough to contain most of the troops of the remaining seven mansions." ”

Yue Fei was in a better mood when he heard this, on the one hand, because he was appreciated by Hu Yanzhuo, and on the other hand, he also felt that since Hu Yanzhuo could see it, it didn't make much sense to say it or not, and his guilt was reduced a lot.

Du Jia said with a smile: "Since General Huyan and Pengju have said so, it seems to be good, Ah He, immediately let the following step up the collection of information related to Yanzhou, especially Taishan Mansion." ”

Then Du Jia gave another order, the army drove back to Qingzhou, and left this place to Yang Mi and them to manage, before parting, he pulled Yang Mi and said: "Brother Er, this Dongting Lake will be yours in the future, I have three sentences for you, you must keep in mind." ”

Yang Mi immediately said: "Jia Shao, please speak, the little brother listens." ”

Du Jia flexed three fingers and said slowly: "First, you have to clean up the remnants of the lake as soon as possible, the obedient can stay, and the disobedient can be expelled by force directly, don't be merciful and think about the past friendship, since you were besieged by the government at that time, they were still sitting on the sidelines, your friendship has come to an end, only by cleaning them all up can we ensure that Dongting Lake is a monolith, and there will be no more people like Li Kai before." ”

Yang Qi nodded heavily and said: "Jia Shao, don't worry, the little brother has already made plans, I don't want to disturb everyone's interest when the brothers gather these days, I will do it as soon as the brothers leave." ”

Du Jia retracted a finger and said: "The second thing is that you have to continue to build vehicles and ships, and upgrade to the level of more than eight rounds as much as possible, in the past, we had few people, and we had to rely on the fighting style of ants to bite and kill elephants, but now that the foundation is stable, you have to build an invincible fleet for me, and if the officers and soldiers dare to come to this Dongting Lake, as long as they go into the water, they will be completely annihilated by the fleet, so that they can understand who has the final say here." ”

Thinking of the majestic scene of a 'fleet' composed of thousands of vehicles and ships with more than eight wheels running rampant in Dongting Lake, Yang Mi felt that his heart was boiling, and Xia Cheng and others next to him were even more excited and tearful, Yang Mi immediately said: "Great, Jia Shao said this, I have more confidence in my heart, but I am afraid that this requires a lot of silver taels, although this Dongting Lake is rich in products, but there are not many ways to make money, how should this be?" ”

Du Jia smiled slightly and withdrew a finger and said: "This is the third thing I want to say, after you say that the entire Dongting Lake is fully controlled, you will let the wind out, and in the future, the embargo on Dongting Lake will be released, whether it is an official ship, a private ship, a merchant ship, or a cargo ship, you can go with it, but you must report to us in advance, and you also need to pay tolls." ”

It turns out that this Dongting Lake originally belonged to the Caoyun important place, and the ships that come and go every day do not know that there are tens of thousands, but since Yang Qi and they made an accident and came to the imperial court to send troops to encircle and suppress, the two sides issued an 'embargo' when they fought for a few months, and no ship was allowed to pass, otherwise it would be found out that the boat would be detained directly, plus it was originally a fight and killing, so naturally no one dared to send it to death.

And now that the officers and soldiers have been repulsed, the previous merchants and people in the government naturally want to continue sailing, but now it is completely Yang Mi and they have the final say, except for the other forces who are also quietly doing some business, most of the people do not dare to break this ban, but they continue to ask people to give Yang Mi gifts and compensations, hoping that he can raise his noble hand, but Yang Mi refused.

So after hearing Du Jia's words, all the heroes in Dongting Lake were full of surprise, and Yang Mi also touched the back of his head and said: "This, Jia Shao, the private cargo ship is just that, but it doesn't seem appropriate to let the official ship go over, right?" Wouldn't that be dealing with the government again, wouldn't we have to go against the court? ”

Du Jia smiled slightly: "These are two different things, we want to overthrow this faint king, but we don't want to go against the people of the world, our Dongting Lake spans three states, and the surrounding population is more than one million, I don't know how many people have to live on this lake, why do we have to cut off so many people's jobs?" Besides, there are many ways to deal with the government, and you don't have to meet each other, as long as you set up the checkpoints carefully and don't let the military ships get mixed in, and the rest of the cargo ships let them go.

And now that Dongting Lake is in our hands, there is no so-called water thieves and water ghosts to rob the goods, they can naturally save a lot of security costs and expenses, and it is nothing for us to collect some fees, just treat it as a protection fee, I have already made a rough calculation, this year alone, this toll can collect at least 500,000 taels of silver, if by the way, you will take the specialty of this Dongting Lake to sell it more, so why worry about the silver two of shipbuilding is not enough? ”

I feel that Brother Qiang Dong has fallen into the trap, and there are ninety women in the family who still need to sexually assault sixty women outside? Even if you spend some money on excitement, it's pitiful.
