Chapter 0251. It's really waste
In the middle of the night, outside Gaimu City, the lights were bright. [This site has a new domain name. initials, previously registered accounts can still be used]
Although Gaimu City is the capital of the entire region, after all, Goguryeo is a small family, and a city is also a picky search, and the space in the city is already small, even if many rebellious nobles are dealt with, the vacated real estate still can't meet the increasing prosperity brought by trade, and the expansion of the city is naturally imminent, but Li Jie is not there, and Yang Yi did not start such a big thing.
Although the city wall was not built, but the address was chosen, the profiteers of the cotton textile guild behind Li Jie's ass immediately seized the opportunity to build a large number of special buildings in the demarcated circle, but the city wall was gone, but the outside of the city was prosperous in advance, especially the huge Xiqinlou branch, although it was not as big as Chang'an, the two-story wooden building, it was still luxuriously decorated.
Especially today, the achievements that have just been built ushered in the first batch of business delegations organized by Qin Qing's girl, Luoyang Chang'an and Dengzhou Laizhou's emerging maritime merchants gathered together, and the stage is still famous pole dancing, but according to local conditions, it also added Goguryeo style, all kinds of plum wine and wine pass through, and a chubby big businessman just got off the carriage, and immediately indulged in this red light district where he was drunk with cigarettes.
"Haha, Brother Wang, this time I came to Goguryeo and opened up the market, your gold jewelry should be even more prosperous."
"Brother Cui is with each other, how many deer skins do you plan to import this time?"
"It's not much, it's only 3,000 for a small fight, and at most I can go back and sell a few thousand."
A group of big businessmen were enjoying the food and talking about business, but the Goguryeo nobles who listened to it couldn't help but smack their tongues, as if the old hat version of the soil was dumbfounded, the prices of the two countries are different, and the copper coins are much more valuable in Goguryeo.
In the stunned, the Goguryeo nobles became more eager to make a fortune, and the two parties chatted happily.
Compared with the exhibition in the hall, in the upstairs private room, the atmosphere is much duller, Li Jie knocked on the table with his fingers, and on the opposite side, there was a lean Dengzhou maritime businessman.
"Your Highness, the forests in Dengzhou can no longer meet the needs of the shipyard, we need Liaodong big wood, and at the same time His Highness still has sufficient labor in his hands, we hope to build a timber mill on the spot, and the big wooden keel harvested from the deep mountains of Liaodong will be processed on the spot, and then transported to Dengzhou, this is the request of the Navigation Association."
Li Jie himself is also an elder of the association, and the representative of the thin businessman did not go around in circles, and directly said the request, Li Jie, who listened, raised his eyebrows slightly, and the fingers that pulled the table were even faster.
"It seems to be closer and more convenient to take the Liaodong Sea Road here, and the number of goods loaded is larger if you use the Denglai Sea ship to transport goods, and it is much more economical than going to Yingzhou, why not follow the King of Qi in Shabei City, but come to Gaizhou?"
As soon as he said this, the merchant was also stunned for a moment, but after a while, he sighed and shook his head: "Within a few months, it is impossible for His Royal Highness King Qi to take Liaonan, winter is approaching, and the members of the association are very suspicious of the supply line of the Tang Dynasty in winter, on the contrary, His Royal Highness's Gaizhou is impregnable, although Liaodong wood is a few layers more expensive to take this line, but Damu can build a big ship, and then use a big ship to go to the Japanese country, Silla trade, you can make up for the cost." ”
"Oh? How can you be sure that the Canghaidao army will not be able to defeat Liaonan? Raising his eyebrows, Li Jie asked with doubts, but the merchant was even more surprised.
"Doesn't Your Highness know? After the Canghaidao army descended to Shabei City, the chief manager Zhang Liang was greedy for merit, and did not capture the Black Bone City and join His Majesty's army according to the original plan, but directly transferred to the city of Jian'an, in a vain attempt to open up the road to the domestic city and Pyongyang City, as a result, Zhang Liang was a man with great ambition and talent, and was frightened speechless by the night attack of the Jian'an city guard, if it were not for the deputy governor Cheng Mingzhen, Zhang Jinshu and others to fight back, the 30,000 army would have been beaten and collapsed that night. ”
"Zhang Liang's talent is shallow, but he also interferes with the king of Qi, the king of Qi is not angry, he led his troops to leave, and his travelogue is on the sea, after the defeat of Jian'an City, due to Zhang Liang's rampant conquest, Liaonan took the cities and there were many incidents, Zhang Liang is now completely dragged in southern Liaoning, and the prospect is really worrying."
"There is such a thing!" Li Jie couldn't help but jump up all of a sudden.
Anyway, King Shuo didn't go into battle shirtless to sell things, and after negotiating the procedures of the lumber mill, Li Jie left first, but made the local Goguryeo nobles talk more freely with foreign merchants, and returned to the governor's mansion, facing the map, Li Jie lost his temper again.
"Stupid, Zhang Liang is full of stupidity, no wonder the eldest grandson and old fox are so disdainful when he mentions him!"
Southern Liaoning, the section from Shabei City to Wugu City, is the Dalian City of later generations, part of Dandong City and its surroundings, the value of the ocean in this era has not yet been reflected, coupled with the strategy of Goguryeo's rule, Liaonan is still very barren, almost a small half of Liaodong, Goguryeo only deployed more than 40,000 soldiers and was weak, it can be imagined.
Jian'an City is a heavy city, holding the southern line leading to the Marudu area, the defense of the Yalu River is not as good as the Liao River, once the Tang army hits the Yalu River, Pyongyang is equivalent to a hedgehog plucking the hair, although it can still be bitten, but it is also a death struggle, the problem is that the original plan of combining land and water into the north and south, because Zhang Liang is capricious, has become empty talk.
Under the division of the Black Bone City, the Tang army was sandwiched into two sections, and the first one could not be echoed, and the generals of the Canghaidao army were not in harmony, which was very dangerous.
Although Gaizhou City produces grain, it is too narrow, the reason why Li Jie agreed to be assigned here is to go to southern Liaoning, and now Zhang Liang has made an indefinite delay, how can Li Jie not be angry?
"It's useless for His Highness to be angry, at this time, you should calm down and wait, there is still King Qi in southern Liaoning." With the lantern, Lao Yang Yi flashed out of the door trembling like a ghost, and Li Jie was not surprised to slam his fist on the table: "Lone hates waiting, especially after the first battle outside Liaodong City, Lone wants to lead the army to open up the Black Bone City in person!" ”
"But!" As soon as he heard this, Lao Yang Yi's brows immediately furrowed, and he dropped the lantern and walked to the map in front of Li Jie, and the dry old hand fell on the northeast of Gaimu City with resentment: "Your Highness, the army should not leave Gaizhou at this time, here, more than 500 cavalry in Xincheng have been attacking this place for more than half a month, once they find out, Lao Chen is very suspicious that Xincheng will fight for Gaizhou." ”
"In the rear, carefully pass the message, the brothers Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen have been preparing for a long time, almost all the southwest army of Goguryeo, if it is properly prepared, when there are more than 200,000 people, it is not the best choice to leave Gaizhou at this time."
"Alone with 5,000 people." Also staring at that corner, Li Jie also said in a compromise that did not give in, and looking at Lao Yang Yi's worried face, Li Jie suddenly laughed evilly: "And Xincheng wants to find out the strength of Lone, then it will be good to confuse his eyes, tomorrow King Lone will destroy the attacking cavalry, and he can't figure out the strength of Gaizhou, Gao Yanshou will not make a decision easily, he is also afraid of attacking Gaizhou, and His Majesty's army under Liaodong City will explode his chrysanthemum." ”
"However, as soon as the army arrived, the cavalry ran away, and it was sawed many times."
"A hundred cavalry alone."
Seeing Yang Yi's surprised look, Li Jie was quite complacent: "Uncle Yang, don't forget, there is still a machine gun squad alone!" If you can't kill the Goguryeo cavalry, how about not attacking the Black Bone City? ”
"Okay, Your Highness."
"Whip the horse!" patting his chest, Li Jie agreed, but looking at Yang Yi's self-righteous expression, he was depressed again, so he looked down on the lonely machine gun squad?
In the hidden mountain city, early in the morning, walking out of the barracks, the yawning little wild tiger just wanted to go with the thin man to get breakfast, but Yang Yuanlang was already full of excitement and rushed to the two of them: "Pack up your things, Your Highness has an order, today's actual battle!" ”
"What? Actual combat today? The little wild tiger and the thin man couldn't help but scream together, but the little wild tiger was a little afraid, and the thin man was full of excitement.
"I've been looking forward to this day for a long time, and I'm about to suffocate to death every day when I reload and reload and don't let me shoot."
"It's just, you're going to fight the enemy desperately?" Xiao Yehu still muttered in disbelief, but the thin man simply slapped it again: "Desperate? The enemy has to come too, think of the wild deer yesterday morning! ”
"Yes!" Thinking of the hapless wild deer who were served as dinner by the officers, the little wild tiger is another agitator.
"Then, say goodbye to my Jin'er."
"There's no time!"
Seven or eight machine gun squads at the city gate hurried out with steamed buns in their mouths, and they couldn't help but say, Xiao Yehu was pushed out of the city gate, and the goods were generally stuffed into the trucks with gun barrels, and then Yang Yuanlang was a thin man and a baby, and he carried the Vulcan earth machine gun into the car, and with a whip, the two two-horse four-wheeled carriages immediately raised the sky.
"Kill, these are all rebellions, not a single one is left!"
On the border of Gaizhou, a newly built Tuntianzhuang emitted billowing black smoke, hundreds of Goguryeo cavalry in the new city roared like beasts, machetes did not hesitate to slash at the same Goguryeo people, houses burned raging, and the tuntianhu in the manor scattered in terror.
On the hillside not far from Tuntianzhuang, the machine gun squad of twelve people was really busy and nervous, the ignition of coal was already burned red, and the piles of half-foot-long barrels were also loaded with special iron chains, connected to the simple earthen machine guns, completely devoid of their usual demeanor, Yang Yuanlang roared in a low voice like a beast, looking down the mountain from a distance, and the little wild tiger bit his lip tightly.
More than ten years ago, it was also such a battle between Goguryeo nobles, and the village where he and Jin'er were located was like this!
"Your Highness's cavalry will lure this group of beasts over in a moment, and we will open fire!" Staring at the thick smoke, squad leader Yang Yuanlang roared in a deep voice, and Xiao Yehu beat his chest with his first hand: "Oh! ”。
