Chapter 101: Xiao He is here

The battle laid a solid foundation for the Qin army to pacify Minyue, and a total of more than 70,000 enemies were annihilated in this battle, which was definitely a fatal blow to the Minyue people with a population of less than 200,000 households. Although the Qin army lost nearly 20,000 troops, the military spirit was basically complete, and it could be replenished by the rear troops.www.biquge.info The Qin army was completely unafraid of the remaining Minyue people.

The military discussion did not last long, and Zhao Zhao decided that the former army would divide into two routes, all the way along the Oujiang River to attack the Dongou King, and all the way along the Minjiang River to attack the Wuzhu Laochao Wangcheng. He led the south road by himself. The other route was led by Captain Zhao Neng, and the army set off after three days of repair. After Yingxu finished recounting the military discussion, he handed it to Lei and asked him to send him to Huiji quickly, and he walked out of the big tent leisurely.

Walking in the barracks and looking at the cold Dingyue Mountain, the burning feeling in Yingxu's heart slowly calmed down. Although every man has the dream of leading an army of 100,000 to fight on the battlefield, how many people can realize it, although he has the courage now, he still lacks such ability. Meditation and accumulation of momentum and self-improvement is the right reason. Some things are unhurried. After calming the restless heartstrings. Look at the two raised peaks of Dingyue Mountain. Yingxu felt that the name he had given to this mountain was not appropriate.

There are many mountains in the land of Minyue, and the place names are messy, and there is no name for it. It's a hassle to write about some things. A few days ago, when the next official of the supervising army asked Ying Xu to write a military report like this, Ying Xu gave the mountain in front of him the name of Dingyue Mountain. But now it seems that the mountain has a better name, alas. Obsessed with Dashan Yingxu, he walked out of the camp quickly. He said to the guards behind him and rode on. Disappear into the night.

Yingxu had to rush back to Ouren Village overnight because Xiao He came. He really wants to know about the battle of Baiyue, and he wants to look at the battle of Baiyue from the overall situation, and the only one who understands all this is Xiao He, who stayed in Huiji, and Xiao He will bring the news he has been looking forward to for a long time. Under the escort of Heihan and others, Yingxu hurried overnight, and returned to Ouren Village after midnight.

"Hahaha, I'm so happy to see you!" Ying Xu helped him up, and Xiao He, who was about to salute, led everyone into the hall.

"We are also very concerned about the son, but I am afraid that the preparation is not proper enough so I only arrived today, and I hope the son will forgive me." Xiao He, Toe and the others hurriedly said.

"It's timely, it's too late for the award, so how can I blame you for waiting, hurry up and get into the table." Ying Xu walked to the case and explained to the colonization company and others in the hall.

The food is a beef soup made by the guards, and Ying Xu is chatting with Xiao He, Toe and others while soaking in steamed cakes. Wu Xi, the head of the Colony Trading Company, saw Ying Xu's easy-going style, and thought that this little prince of the Qin people was really easy-going, which made people feel so comfortable, and he unconsciously wanted to approach him. But the thought that just popped into his mind also startled him. After stabilizing his mentality, Yingxu, who learned to take the case, tore up the cooked soup cakes and soaked them in a bowl.

"Well, it's delicious." The people in the hall exclaimed in unison. Wu Xi also thought it was delicious, and after taking the first bite, he ate it in a big gulp. While eating Wu Xi, he heard Xiao He ask about this kind of cooked soup cake, so he also curiously pricked up his ears to listen to Yingxu talk, Gongzi Yingxu called this kind of cooked soup cake steamed cake, saying that he made it when he had nothing to do, but said that this kind of thing can be stored for a long time if it is done, and it will be very convenient if it can be used as military food in the future. Listening to Yingxu say steamed cakes so simply, Wu Xi was full of emotion.

A new kind of food is completely casual to Childe, doesn't he know the value of this kind of food? If you can promote it, you will definitely make a lot of money. In the future, I must find an opportunity to discuss this recipe with Childe tomorrow. Wu reluctantly put the last piece of steamed cake into his mouth and chewed it.

After eating, Ying Xu listened carefully to the operation of the colonization trading company, and felt relieved, it seems that this business model that transcends the times has not been unadaptable. And unexpectedly, in just a few months, the colonization trading company has purchased dozens of sea vessels of more than 3,000 stones, and nearly 100 inland river vessels of more than 1,000 stones. Then the colonization company can reach tens of thousands of stones by sea at one time. The river transport can be as high as nearly 100,000 stones. It fully satisfies the cargo transportation of Baiyue, and can also free up some merchant ships to sell other materials.

Xiao He also told Yingxu that the Colony Trading Company had begun to make a profit, and some of them had made a lot of money with Ren Huan's westward marching army, and in total, in the past few months, the Colony Trading Company had a thousand gold in income. At the same time, it can also replenish the supply of food and grass for the army in a timely manner, and share weal and woe with the army. And now there are many camps in Baiyue that are willing to exchange goods and buy materials with colonists. In this way, Ying Xu feels that the colonization trading company is completely erected.

Ying Xu exchanged pleasantries with Wu Xi, Toe, and Yin Mou for a while, and then sent the three of them to the guest room to rest, leaving Xiao He alone. Xiao He and Ying Xu also watched the three of them leave, and waited for the three of them to disappear into the night. Xiao He took out a piece of brocade cloth from his arms and handed it to Ying Xu, the brocade cloth was a letter written by Feng Quji to Ying Xu, Xiao He had no right to read it, so he sat aside and waited patiently for Ying Xu to read the letter.

The first half of Feng Quji's letter talks about the deployment of the First Emperor for the Minyue War, and the middle is about the situation of the army in Panyu, in which he also hopes that Yingxu will arrange for the colonization company to buy more herbs and sell them in Panyu. Finally, he warned Ying Xu to be cautious and cautious in the war, not to be careless, to read more books and learn more laws, and not to slack off. Xiao He saw Yingxu take the letter into his arms and said:

"The army marched slowly, but fortunately, it was a battalion step by step, and it occupied Panyu after more than ten days, and the Jijun Department was forced to retreat to Xiou to survive. I think there will be no more big battles east of Xiou. However, on the way to the army, the army was also attacked by the horses many times, and fortunately, the losses were not heavy. However, the weather in the south was hot and sultry, and many soldiers were unwell, and the number of sick and sick soldiers was increasing day by day, and the death of sick people was even more serious. Therefore, the army is mostly repaired in Panyu. ”

"Well, Prime Minister Feng also said this in the letter, it just so happened that I collected some herbs here, there are nearly 10,000 stones, you can take them all with you when you leave! Now Minyue is just around the corner, but the terrain of Xiou is extremely complex, and it probably takes a lot of effort to level Xiou. I don't know if the imperial court has a peaceful measure? Ying Xu found out the terrain sketch of Baiyue and asked Xiao He with a sigh.

"What Childe said is that the land of Xiou is indeed complicated and abnormal, but the imperial court intends to communicate with Xiangli Ershui." Xiao He walked up to Ying Xu and pointed to the two unrelated rivers on the sketch and said.

Looking at the place Xiao He pointed to, Ying Xu suddenly remembered the great achievements of the first emperor, the North Great Wall and the South Lingqu, how could I forget the Lingqu. The Lingqu is a pass through the five ridges and must be flat. Feng Quji's letter also mentioned that the First Emperor wanted to build a canal. But he didn't expect it to be a spiritual canal. If this is the case, to pacify the Qiandian Gui in the previous life, it may take a few more years, at least until the Lingqu is repaired. The butterfly effect did not affect the foresight of the first emperor, and the Lingqu communication between the Xiangjiang River and the Li River would complete the most meaningful feat of Qin's expedition to Baiyue, and also closely connect Guizhou, Yunnan, Guizhou and the Central Plains, ensuring that he was always in the normal territory of China.

"Okay, Xiao He will take me to take full responsibility for the affairs of the trading company in the future, although the Yue people are a little stupid, but they are not stupid, in the future, you must be honest in doing business with them, and you must be ............" Xiao He chatted with Yingxu for more than an hour. Only then did he walk out of the hall.

After determining that the imperial court was going to repair the canal, Gongzi concluded that the Baiyue War would come to an end, and then let him take full responsibility for the affairs of the Colony Trading Society, and then he had a meeting, and he didn't say anything about the Colonization Merchant Society, as if the Colonization Trading Society was just a product of Childe's casual actions. What exactly does Childe want to do, is Childe really only twelve years old? Xiao He was completely confused by Ying Xu's age-inappropriate way of doing things.

Although Childe is like a fog, Xiao He knows that Childe is full of kindness and trust to everyone, and even for Yue people, Childe admonishes him to treat each other with sincerity. And Childe will make this place very neat and comfortable whenever he goes to a place. As long as the child is, the people will live in harmony, the children can play at will, and the adults will live very comfortably. This makes everyone who approaches Childe feel like home. All have a feeling of comfort and relaxation throughout the body. Could this be the spirit of a king? Xiao He stared at the starry sky and thought about Ying Xu's actions, and his heart became even more confused.

"What are you doing thinking about so much, sleep." Looking at the blinking stars, Xiao He blocked the messy thoughts in his mind, closed the window, went to bed and fell asleep.
