Chapter 608: Rumors

Watching Xiao Mo fight, it was like performing with him alone. {}

Not only does Xiao Mo use wits and tactics on the battlefield, but at the same time, Xiao Mo will also use diplomacy to take advantage of all the weaknesses of the enemy, and then try his best to magnify this weakness infinitely!

Xiao Mo completely delved this war into the cultural and economic differences between the two countries, the An Dynasty and the Liao State, and then to the comprehensive aspects such as military strength.

According to Xiao Mo's style of play, everyone realized that this war with the Liao State, because of Xiao Mo's leadership, is estimated to be much more complicated than before!

This kind of war is more difficult to control, and the requirements for leaders are very high!

But everyone is full of confidence, because everything is still Xiao Mo!

Next, everyone is very curious about what Xiao Mo will do and what kind of articles he will make in Liao to force Liao to send troops!

But under everyone's expectant eyes, Xiao Mo said: "Don't stare at me, just wait and see!" ”

Then, Xiao Mo asked everyone to go back, leaving only Yang Yanqi in the tent.

"Eighth sister, help me study ink ......" Xiao Mo said to Yang Yanqi.

Then Yang Yanqi took out the ink ingot and the inkstone, and then gently grinded it, Yang Yanqi also asked Xiao Mo: "Ziheng, but you have to write a letter again?" ”

Xiao Mo nodded and said, "Not bad! ”

It was these two words, Xiao Mo refused to say a word more in front of Yang Yanqi, and Yang Yanqi couldn't help but curl his mouth.

After the ink came out, Xiao Mo began to pick up the brush and write letters.

The letter was addressed to Shi Shikai, and Xiao Mo asked Shi Shikai to help do something in Liao.

After writing the letter to Shi Shikai, Xiao Mo wrote another letter, the letter was written to Xiu Zhiming, in his heart Xiao Mo asked Xiu Zhiming to go to Ji Ping to find a way to control the grain in the hands of the merchants, at least cut off all the grain of the An Dynasty to flow into the Liao State.

Most of the food supply of the Liao State was self-sufficient, but a lot of it was purchased in the An Dynasty by merchants and caravans who traveled between An and Liao.

What Xiao Mo had to do was to cut off the way for the Liao State to obtain grain in the An Dynasty.

Originally, the An Dynasty and the Liao State went to war, and the exchanges between merchants should have ended because of the war. However, after hundreds of years of sinicization, the accent of the Liao people, including their clothing and appearance, is very similar to the people of the An Dynasty, and it is difficult to distinguish them, so Xiao Mo knows that there must be merchants from the Liao Kingdom who came to the An Dynasty to buy grain, and then transported it back to the Liao State by water.

Xiao Mo let Ji Ping and Xiu use the name of the court and Xiu in the name of the business community to monopolize the grain of the An Dynasty, which can prevent the grain of the An Dynasty from flowing into the Liao State again, and at the same time force the Liao State to speed up the progress of the war.

Both letters were naturally handed over by Xiao Mo to his detectives, and they were quickly sent to the capitals of the Liao State and the An Dynasty.

Starting from Taiyuan, it is of course closer to Liaoguo.

Because the center of the Liao State moved to Xijing, Shi Shikai naturally moved to Xijing with people.

Shi Shikai opened a teahouse in Xijing, drinking tea is still a luxury in Liao, usually only those dignitaries like to come to the teahouse to wander around, so the business is not very good.

But Shi Shikai is not afraid of losing money, what he wants is news between these dignitaries!

After receiving Xiao Mo's letter, Shi Shikai didn't dare to check it immediately, but returned to his room and opened the letter alone.

After reading the letter, Shi Shikai immediately burned the letter, and then called his subordinates in and gave them something!

The next day, in the city of Xijing, Liaoguo, there were some rumors in the streets and alleys.

The rumors intensified, and finally even the major teahouses and teahouses in Xijing, as well as restaurants, restaurants, and inns spread everywhere.

"Hey, have you heard? This time, the ships we sent to An Chao to buy grain were all detained......"

"Did you hear that, too?"

"yes...... An Chao seems to be serious this time, and he can't transport a grain of grain......"

"Huh? Is it true? ”

"Of course it's true......"

"And...... We also heard that the treasury of the imperial court is now almost empty, and the grain in the granary has been transported to the front, and the 500,000 army eats and drinks day and night, think about it...... How much food does that need? ”

Such rumors, after spreading ten or ten hundreds, finally caused panic in Liao, and the people began to rush for grain frantically in major grain stores.

The speed of the message spread and the impact it caused were so great that the ministers of the Liao court were completely caught off guard.

When Yelu Hongji and Zhang Xiaojie reacted and then ordered the grain shops to ban the sale of grain, almost even the door panels in the grain shops in Liao were robbed by the people!

This incident shocked the entire government and opposition in Liao, and also made Yelu Hongji, Zhang Xiaojie and others have expressions of regret on their faces.

If I had known this, I should have prepared one step earlier and controlled the food first, but now......

It's too late to say anything, and it's ......

It was really rumored that the An Dynasty suddenly began to have full control over food, as well as blockading the coast, and ships were not allowed to go to sea!

This made Yelu Hongji so anxious that he hurriedly summoned all his ministers to discuss the matter, and finally ...... Of course, nothing came out of the discussion.

The land of Liao was originally barren and could not grow rice, and most of the Liao people ate livestock or pasta and other things on weekdays, and the grain was secretly purchased in the An Dynasty.

Now that the An Dynasty has cut off the grain route of Liao, and it is so completely broken, it also makes Yelu Hongji and Zhang Xiaojie very helpless.

In the end, Yelu Hongji had no choice but to say: "If there is no rice, there will be no rice!" Also, Zhang Aiqing's side must pay close attention to control, and no longer let the food be lost, otherwise, what will the hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line feed themselves? ”

Zhang Xiaojie asked in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, this front line has not fought for a long time, and it is always consumed like this, which is extremely unfavorable to my Daliao, and now that such a thing has happened, it will make my Daliao even worse, and if I don't send troops again...... I'm afraid that in the end, before our Daliao war, the soldiers will be so hungry that they can't move......"

Yelu Hongji said: "The affairs of military and political affairs are controlled by Uncle Liberty Wang and Huo Aiqing...... Besides, it looks like it's August, and the wheat is almost ripe, so let's hold it up for a while! ”

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Xiaojie said: "The minister plays the emperor, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the minister is in charge of the treasury. ”

After that, Zhang Xiaojie bowed to Yelu Hongji and said: "The minister implores the emperor to order the troops!" ”

With Zhang Xiaojie's bow, many people in the Liao Kingdom also knelt down together, and then said in unison: "Please give the emperor an order to send troops!" ”
