Chapter 66: A New Channel

Thinking of this, Wu Han nodded and said, "You're right, it's not so easy to attack the Xiongnu. www.biquge.info It is not easy to prepare weapons, medicine, clothing, food, horses, etc. ”

Li Yi said: "General Wu is right, I am here, and I have something to do with the conquest of the Xiongnu." However, I really admire you Pingzhou, you see that after the New Year, when you say that you will fight the Huns, the army will set off immediately, and the food will be supplied all the way, without the slightest delay. After going, he first fought against King Zuoxian, then fought in the court, fought even the victory, and General Wu must have made great achievements. Come, let's toast to the warriors on the battlefield! ”

As he spoke, Li Yi raised his glass and looked at Wu Han and the two personal soldiers beside him. Li Yi was probably very proud, proudly wooing a fierce general who had just come down from the battlefield.

But Wu Han was very embarrassed in his heart, he knew that he had gone to the Huns, except for repairing the city, he had not directly fought with the Huns. Originally, I wondered if Jiang Hexing didn't trust him, but when he came back to guard the Pingzhou Mansion, he handed over the responsibility of guarding the Pingzhou Mansion to himself, can this still be regarded as distrust?

Wu Han thought that he had no military exploits, this was the most embarrassing thing for him, but he didn't expect this Li Yi to mention this matter, Wu Han was not good at what to say, and he knew that people were also kind.

Wu Han pretended to laugh and raised his wine glass, and drank it cleanly.

After Wu Han finished drinking, he shook the wine glass, shone at the candlelight next to him, and said, "Mr. Li, is this wine glass jade?" ”

Li Yi thought that Wu Han would talk about his heroic deeds in the Xiongnu, but he didn't expect that this General Wu was so modest that he didn't seem to want to mention it. Li Yi, a person from a family, has been extremely shrewd since he was a child, and seeing that Wu Han was interested in the wine glass, his eyes immediately stared at the glass and said: "General Wu, this is the wine glass made by our Nanyang jade." Look at how beautiful it is, you look at the carvings on it, but our Nanyang landscape. ”

Wu Han picked up the wine glass, looked carefully under the lamp and said, "Hey, I'm a rough person, I can't understand it." Still don't look at it. ”

Wu Han said something, and the whole table was coaxed, and they laughed together.

The laughter did not stop, and in the courtyard where Wu Han listened, there was a noise of people and horses.

A middle-aged short, fat servant ran into the living room, and the servant still had a lot of snow on his head.

The servant saw that Li Yi and the others were eating happily, and he was a little stunned, but he walked quickly to Li Yi. Li Yi saw him coming over and immediately stood up. Said to Wu Han: "General Wu, two little generals, you eat first, and I'll come back immediately." ”

Wu Han saw that he had something to do, nodded and said, "Mr. Li, you are busy in advance, we are waiting for you." ”

Li Yi didn't seem to hear what he said, pulled the servant, and went behind the screen at the back of the living room, the two whispered for a while, and the servant immediately ran out.

Li Yi sat down again, and Wu Han saw that his face had changed a little, and he didn't seem to be very happy. Wu Han asked, "Mr. Li, is there something wrong?" ”

Li Yi realized that Wu Han noticed that his face had changed, and sighed: "Hey, the snow outside is getting heavier and heavier, and the grain I bought is not lucky, I am tired of several horses today." ”

Wu Han used to be a pavilion chief in Nanyang, and later sold horses in Yuyang County. Although he doesn't usually like to talk much, and his heart is like a mirror, Li Yi's sigh can be regarded as betraying him.

With his net worth, he will never sigh for a few horses, he is covering up the change in his face just now, and he really wants to cover up. Wu Han's heart was excited, this Li Yi had something.

Thinking of this, Wu Han became careful, but he also cooperated with Li Yi at the wine table, first hated the ghost weather in Pingzhou with Li Yi, and it was inconvenient to go there.

Wu Han's wine below was still very bold, and he drank it for another half an hour.

After drinking, we chatted for a while. Wu Han offered to leave, Li Yi worked hard to keep it, Wu Han took out the military order and used it as a shield, and Li Yi no longer kept it.

After the two changed their clothes, Li Yi pulled Wu Han again, insisting on sending Wu Han.

When he came to the courtyard, as soon as the cold wind blew, Wu Han slowed down, pretending to be a little drunk, his body was half leaning on Li Yi, although his eyes were squinted, he looked carefully at the road, and the moon gate just now.

The rut was covered in snow, and the new rut still led to the moon gate. There weren't many ruts this time, that's what five cars looked like.

As Wu Han walked, he peeked at Li Yi beside him with drunken eyes, and Li Yi also kept looking at the Moon Gate.

Wu Han had a clue in his heart, oh, the problem was in the carriage behind the Moon Gate.

Li Yi was sent all the way to the gate, and after the two said goodbye, Wu Han took the car and walked slowly on the snowy road.

The journey was very slow, and several times, the three of them had to get down and push the cart. The road is not far, but it can be walked for a full hour.

Back in the barracks, Wu Han didn't care about the cold, and called the two pro-soldiers into the room together and said, "Immediately send someone to secretly find out where those cars just now came from, where they are going, and what they are pulling." ”

That night, Wu Han made arrangements to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Li Yi's grain business to see what was wrong with his grain business.

While arranging the people, Wu Han wrote a detailed report to Jiang Hexing.

Jiang Hexing took the report, Wu Han just suspected Li Yi, and it was not appropriate to go directly to investigate, Jiang Hexing asked him to investigate secretly first.

Jiang Hexing calculated in his heart that Pingzhou restricts salt and iron, and if there is a prohibition, it can only be a matter of these two aspects. It's just that where do they come from, and who is the internal cooperation with him?

Jiang Hexing pondered and pondered, but he didn't know the essentials for a while, and the doorman reported that someone was visiting.

Who is the person who came, Han Hao, and now he is responsible for leading people to spread the way of Tianli.

Jiang Hexing was a little strange and invited him into the secret room, Han Hao first reported the spread of Tianli Dao, and now most of Pingzhou has believed in Tianli Dao. Especially for new immigrants, lack of money and food, and lack of medicine when they are sick, Tianli Dao is free to see a doctor, so Tianli Dao spreads very quickly, and almost no one does not believe in Tianli Dao.

There are a lot of immigrants who have come this year, and there are still people going thousands of miles north of the summer capital. Han Hao sent people along the weak water (called Heishui, Heilongjiang) to see how many immigrants there were.

I went to see both sides of the weak water, and I sent 5 people to take a small boat, and I kept walking along the river and going upstream, and I actually came to the city of two lakes.

Hearing this, Jianghexing's eyes lit up, from the upper reaches of the weak water is actually Lianghu City, then you can take a boat from Pingzhou Mansion all the way to Lianghu City, that is to say, from Pingzhou Mansion to Pingwu City, you can go directly by boat. Even if some rivers need to be dredged, but after the opening of the new waterway, it will be unavoidable, and there will be no need to use a large number of people and horses to transport grain in horse-drawn carts in the future, and the cost will be greatly reduced. The entire northern region can be expanded by half of the area.

Jiang Hexing was very happy and appreciated Han's work, which was a great contribution to the pacification of the Xiongnu.

Jiang Hexing gave Han Hao an extra task, let him spread the way of Tianli, and at the same time, let him go to the summer capital, let him find Li Yuan, and let the two of them send people to inspect the weak water river, and strive to have a boat to go to Lianghu City to inspect and dredge the river after the civilization next year, and strive to be able to take a big boat in the future to completely solve the problem of transporting grain.

Han Hao took the order and left. (To be continued.) )
