Chapter 246: Reciprocating the Peach (Seeking Comfort)

Soon after Lin Sen came to report the victory, the envoys of the Tuli Khan also came to Chang'an City, but he came to ask for help from the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the Tuli Khan, which of course was indispensable to express his surrender to the Tang Dynasty, otherwise why would the Tang Dynasty help him, and there would be no good excuse to intervene.

Of course, Li Shimin and the princes in the court will not fail to understand that it is more in the interests of the Tang Dynasty to sit back and watch these two khans fight to the death.

Therefore, Li Shimin said that I have a brotherly alliance with the Tuli Khan, and I also had an alliance with the Jieli Khan, and I am a person who abides by the covenant, and I cannot easily feel sorry for either of them.

Although he accepted the submission of the Tuli Khan, he did not move his troops and did not directly send troops to attack the Jieli Khan.

just sent a message to Xue Yantuo, who already had the intention to peep into the position of the Khan, and asked them to go to flank Jieli Khan, and at the same time ordered Chai Shao, who had fully taken over Shuofang City, to press forward and make a gesture of military intervention, and first drive back those Turks who were still hovering outside Shuofang City.

In addition, it is also necessary to give some substantial help to the Turki Khan, since they have all started fighting, it is better to fight lively. If the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great, the consumption will not be enough, and the strength gap must be reduced to make their internal fighting more durable, otherwise how will Datang reap the benefits of the fisherman.

It's not okay to send Xue Yantuo this helper in private, is it okay to get some obsolete weapons and armor in the past, and when their battle is over, these weapons and armor can almost be completely scrapped, and they will not pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty's army.

It's not too difficult to send it over, let the gateways facing the grassland like Taiyuan and Shuofang loosen up a little, and give those caravans who come and go between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks more free space, and naturally there will be people who are willing to take risks to be the captain of this transport brigade.

The previous ruthless killings did not completely stop this gang of guys who wanted money and didn't want to die, but now there is a bigger market gap, and there are more loopholes to exploit, and these people have to pounce on them like wolves that smell blood.

And Lin Sen also chose this opportunity to return to Zhuangzi to prepare to form his own caravan, and took the grassland route, but instead of doing this kind of urinal work, he took a fancy to another market on the grassland.

This winter's blizzard was really severe, not only the Turks stationed at the edge of Shuofang City were affected, but the Turks on the steppe were even more bloody, and countless sheep and horses were killed and injured.

Lin Sen saw business opportunities from here, and of course there were also hints from those martial artists.

This trip to Shuofang, Lin Sen has really felt how important tea is for a group of people who eat meat for a living, and the generals of the Tang Army can run towards him every day, just to rub this thing.

This is still the general of the Tang Army, what about the Turkic herdsmen who are even more scarce in supplies? To change horses or not to change them? What about changing sheepskins? That's definitely a happy change.

At this time, it is difficult to see green on the grassland, just want to fill the grass in your mouth, I'm afraid it's not easy to find, the appearance of this tea, for them is not a supreme gift, you say you can't sell a good price to be worthy of whom.

What's more, these horses and sheepskins, horse skins, when they come to Datang, it is naturally another price.

At this time, Datang did not have a large area of excellent horse grazing land like the middle and late Zhenguan period, after all, the two major horse-producing lands of Turkic and Tuyuhun had not been beaten, so the price of horses was still very considerable. If it weren't even for the horseshoe method that Lin Sen came up with, the supply of this war horse would still be a little less abundant.

In this way, the difference between the two parties was earned, and even the most ordinary tea was made by going to the grassland, and the profit earned was very amazing.

Similarly, there is another product, which is high-strength sake. This thing is warm all over the body, and it must be very popular with these grassland people.

When the Turkic prisoners of war were interrogated on Shuofang's side, some of them had hard mouths and couldn't open them for a while, but they immediately became obedient after drinking two sips of soju, just to be able to drink two more sips of this thing before they died.

Originally, it was just the most ordinary soju produced in the winery, but when it came to the mouths of those Turks, it became an irreplaceable immortal brew, and when such things were brought to the grassland, they could naturally exchange them for more things that Lin Sen wanted, such as war horses, which could really enhance the strength of the Tang Dynasty.

And selling such things to the grassland, not to mention the profits, don't worry about enhancing the strength of the grassland people, let alone make taboos like those night pot caravans, and there will be no day when they will be liquidated in the future.

In fact, such an action can be said to have been instructed by Li Shimin.

The last time Lin Sen saw Li Shimin alone, he had such an offer and sent it as a gift to thank him as a matchmaker.

And now Li Shimin feels that it is time for these things to intervene, taking advantage of the current Turkic civil strife and the inability to resist these things in a unified manner, let them form a dependence on these things.

In the future, the Turkic steppe was really laid, and having these things in their hands can be regarded as a kind of grasp, so that they can have more recognition of Datang's side, if more people can really have their hearts towards Datang, it will naturally be better.

And Cheng Yanjin and their gang got the martial arts instructed by Lin Sen, so they were naturally the most fully prepared for this, and the soju workshop was their common industry, and it was also the best choice for producing soju, so it became the best choice to go this way.

Wu Xun's loyalty is also more guaranteed, unlike those civil officials, especially those from the family, who like to play tricks so much, and often engage in some ghost tricks of Ming Xiu plank road and dark Chen Cang, and it is more convenient to control it.

At the same time, in such a way, it can be regarded as a reward for these martial artists, and it is also a return for Lin Sen's proposal, so Lin Sen, who is not a heavyweight with other martial artists at all, also participated in the trade of the royal caravan.

The caravan on the side of the Lin family Zhuangzi was formed quite quickly, and many farmers had already seen the group of farmers who went out to do business to make a fortune, and they naturally had a lot less fear of such things.

As for the danger of going out, sometimes you need to play with your life, which is not a matter at all, when they were originally mountain people, they were not fighting for their lives one day. Even if you go to the grassland, who is afraid of coming.

Besides, there are so many Wuxun's subordinates who can take care of each other this time, they are all rare good hands, and there is no need to worry too much about dealing with these problems.

And the actual principal of the Lin family's caravan, Lin Sen chose Xi Jun to buy it to take on the role unexpectedly of many people.

This guy can be said to be Lin Sen's founding disciple, and the things that can be taught are actually almost taught, after all, compared to Lin Sen, this person's IQ is actually much higher.

Although in terms of mathematics alone, it is a few points worse than his younger brother Xi Junqing, but it is definitely more than enough to deal with the people on the grassland, even if it is compared to an old shopkeeper like Du Zikuan, it is not much better.

Just took advantage of this opportunity to let him go out and exercise well.

I didn't let him follow him in this battle when I went to Shuofang City, I have to consider the possibility of misfortune, so I have to leave an incense for Xi Weizhong.

And Xi Jun's list is more powerful than what Xi Jun bought in terms of being a guard and rushing and killing, so he let Xi Junmai stay at home and continue to teach the children.

But after all, this is a famous generation of fierce generals in history, it would be a pity to let himself be so fed, Lin Sen hopes to train him to be a good hand in his own right, this trip to the grassland is a good opportunity to promote his rapid growth.

It's just that on the surface, the caravan still needs to arrange a person who is old and respectful, and the kind who can speak well, to be the big shopkeeper, and more responsible for dealing with people, and can also mention the next Xi Jun to buy.

Among the Lin family households, which are very complex, it is also not difficult to find people with experience in this area.
