"How can someone snore on the side of a good couch, but has this sporadic spark Zhongde ever chosen?" Liu Wei admired in his heart, Cheng Yu is really one of the top strategists in this era.

"For thieves, the best war horses are the best kindling, only a hundred high-grade war horses, the minister can ensure that the fire in Linzi will soon burn." Cheng Yu said in a deep voice.

"A thousand war horses?" Liu Wei frowned slightly, since ancient times, there has been a shortage of horses in the Central Plains, let alone high-grade war horses, that is, the three thousand white horses that he himself has given away from Gongsun Zhan after the original Xiliang soldiers, and it is still in Zhao Yun's hands.

In this way, if you want to fight horses, you may need the assistance of merchants, but unfortunately there are not many merchants who sell horses in this era, and the most famous ones are probably Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping, but unfortunately these two guys are only mentioned in the book, and there is no detailed record of the two at all, which makes Liu Wei how to find it?

Liu Wei shook his head secretly, once he won Qingzhou, he must vigorously support commerce, although now China belongs to a big agricultural country, but as the saying goes, no water does not live and no business is not passable, the role of commerce is not underestimated, in this era Confucianism belongs to the class of farmers and businessmen led to the low status of businessmen, but commerce has an indelible contribution to promoting social progress.

Because of the division of classes, the real big merchants were extremely rare in this era, and as a result, the means of merchants in this era were also extremely primitive, which also led to the important reason for the lack of horses in the entire land of China, except for the very few places where horses were produced.

Of course, businessmen pursue profits, reduce the status of businessmen, although the development of commerce is curbed, but on the other hand, it will also minimize the harm that businessmen can bring to the society, businessmen are profit-seeking by nature, this is a double-edged sword, if used well, it can naturally enrich the people and strengthen the country, but if it is not used well, the harm to itself is absolutely immeasurable.

For example, the soldiers guarding the frontier are fighting bloody battles with foreign races, but there are still many merchants who trade with foreign races and sell iron tools from the Central Plains to foreign races.

But now is not the time to think about it, the most important thing now is to buy horses, and then provoke the thieves in Linzi City to turn against him, so that he can fish in troubled waters.

"Is Zhong De the easiest horse dealer to contact?" Liu Wei pinched his eyebrows, he was blind to this piece, and he didn't know whose hands to buy horses from.

Cheng Yu groaned slightly: "The Zhen family in Jizhou, the Mi family in Xuzhou, and the Su family in Youzhou are the largest horse dealers, especially the Su family in Youzhou is the largest horse dealer. ”

"Youzhou Su Clan?" Liu Wei knew that Youzhou, which was separated from Qingzhou by a Jizhou, and the journey delayed back and forth by buying horses from them was afraid that the daylily would be cold, so he shook his head and said: "Youzhou Su's whip is beyond reach, or choose the nearby Xuzhou Mi family." ”

However, it is also risky to choose Xuzhou Mi's family, at this time, the Mi's family is located in Tao Qian's territory, once it trades with Mi's, I'm afraid it won't be able to escape Tao Qian's eyes, so their attack on Qingzhou will be in broad light.

When Liu was in a dilemma, Qu A suddenly said: "Your Highness, the last general knows that several wandering merchants make a living selling horses, or they can buy horses from them. ”

"Oh?" Liu Wei said suspiciously: "Who are the horse dealers you are talking about?" ”

Qu Adao: "This person's name is Su Shuang, Zhang Shiping, these two people have always been selling horses for a living, and they have a bold personality, the green forests in the world have a relationship with them, and they have never heard of the identity of the seller, as long as they give money, they can deliver war horses in any way and anywhere." ”

"Okay, Your Highness can be used by me." Cheng Yu's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice: "Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping are suitable trading partners. ”

"Newspaper~"

Liu Wei was about to speak, when a personal guard suddenly rushed into the council hall like a gust of wind and hissed: "Your Highness, the big thing is not good, a large number of troops have appeared ten miles away. ”

"Huh!?" Liu Wei's eyes sharpened, swept over everyone's faces and said, "You can go with Gu to retreat from the enemy, and then come back to discuss the military situation in detail." ”

。。。。。。

When Liu Wei climbed the low city tower accompanied by Cheng Yu, Qu A, Chen Jun, Chu Xing, and Tian Yong, an army had gathered outside the city tower, and there were about seven or eight thousand people as far as the eye could see, and it was vaguely visible that except for the leader wearing cracking armor, most of the rest of the people were in rags, and the weapons in their hands were also varied, but their foreheads were uniformly wearing earthy yellow wipes.

Liu Wei secretly thought in his heart, this should be the Yellow Turban Yu Party, but it is said that the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou is a group of fierce soldiers, why is this Yellow Turban soldier in front of him too miserable, and there is no unified standard equipment.

"Listen to the people in the city, the king of my family is the son of Que Tian, if you don't quickly put down your weapons and go out of the city to surrender, the king of my family may spare your life, otherwise the chickens and dogs will not stay..."

In front of the three armies, a small corrector with a yellow forehead on his head stood there chattering, pointing to the city and shouting loudly, but the corners of Liu Wei's mouth rose with a sneer, this world is really too small, I didn't pay attention to it just now, but now I look carefully, but when I saw the bearded man in front of the battle, isn't it Que Xuan, the owner of Heifeng Village.

Liu Wei shook his head, called the marksman over, pointed to the chattering little minion, gently bowed his head, unloaded the bow from his back, pulled out an arrow, took a deep breath, drew the bow and arrow, and a cold light swept away, the little minion was talking hard, only to feel that his pupils were constricted, and the wolf's tooth arrow was coldly poured into his mouth.

The sound of sharp weapons entering the bones sounded, and the wolf's tooth arrow had already penetrated his skull, and the huge inertia made the little minion who had long lost his life fall backwards fiercely, and the sharp arrow was deeply inserted into Que Xuan's war horse one step away, and the tail of the arrow still trembled.

Liu Wei tightened the red dragon spear in his hand, and his cold eyes stared at Que Xuan outside the city like a steel knife, he had already wanted to kill Que Xuan, but Que Xuan fled to the mountains and could not pursue, this is his own net, how can he not accept the gift?

Thinking of this, Liu Wei Huo Ran looked back and said in a deep voice: "Qu A listened to the order, ordered three thousand elites, and went out of the city with Gu to fight, this time Gu will personally kill Que Xuan." ”

Although Que Xuan is tall and big, his strength can reach seventy points, which is not much different from his martial arts attributes, and Que Xuan does not have any martial arts skills, but he has the assistance of skills, plus Qu A is on the side to help, there will definitely be no problems.

Last night, he practiced a complete set of five bird fists, although he did not improve his attributes, but he felt a faint sense of bottleneck, a hearty battle may allow him to break through the bottleneck and improve his attributes.
