After the waiter brought tea, retreated and closed the door of the living room, Li Yuanxing said: "The wise use their deceit, the brave use their ruthlessness, the fool uses their strength, and the cowardly use their prudence." ”

Li Yuanxing's four sentences were also seen from the book, and I have been reading miscellaneous books recently, and I don't know if they were written in that book.

It is appropriate to use these four sentences as an opening statement.

"I'm waiting for you to talk about wisdom, Senior Brother Yao doesn't count, you can be listed as one of the top three Tang generals. Speaking of bravery, you may not be the crazy opponent when you fight alone, but you are also extremely strong. This is the reason why this king has thought twice and chosen you. ”

For Li Yuanxing's praise, Hou Junji also thought about it in his heart.

In terms of wisdom, Li Ji is quite clever, and Hou Junji is also convinced. In addition, Duan Zhixuan, Li Xiaogong and others think that they are comparable, so this top three evaluation Hou Junji thinks that it is His Royal Highness King Qin's appreciation of himself, and it is a very objective evaluation.

If you want to talk about bravery, I'm afraid this is highly praised.

Among the Tang army, except for Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, and Wei Chigong, there were too many madmen to count, and they couldn't take their turn.

Li Yuanxing continued: "Let's talk about the second reason, you will definitely not be kind to a woman. ”

Speaking of the topic, Hou Junji's attention has also been much more concentrated. Li Yuanxing continued: "And this third point is the most important. Lao Hou is like your own king, Tang and different, you are very clear. ”

Hou Junji nodded, there was absolutely nothing wrong with this. What convinced him most of the King of Qin was the attitude of this foreign country, and he would rather kill by mistake than let go.

Li Yuan got up and went to pull the curtains in the living room, and Hou Junji hurriedly got up to help.

After the curtains are all drawn. Li Yuanxing hung a rope on a wall and pulled hard, and a flat white cloth fell. Li Yuanxing used a small projector to project a map on a white cloth.

Shadow Magic!

Hou Junji has heard of it, and this is the first time he has seen it.

Li Yuanxing held a light pen in his hand and pointed to the location equivalent to the modern Bohai Bay with a red dot: "Here, here, here." There are three super salt farms, and only here are the ones that can be used now. Li Yuanxing is referring to the location of modern Laizhou Bay, which is also called Laizhou in Datang.

This Laizhou Bay was placed in later generations, and it was a large salt field with 3 million tons of salt before the year.

At this time, it was placed in Datang. Qingzhou is the territory controlled by the descendants of the Li royal family. As a support point, it will cooperate with Laizhou.

Whether it is security, confidentiality, transportation capacity, etc., it is excellent.

"Snow salt. There is no need for this king to talk about how much benefit there is. This king only needs to raise soldiers. Twenty into the palace. One percent is for the emperor to provide for the elderly, three percent is handed over to the treasury, and two percent is for the benefit of the Li royal family. Among them, the Ministry of Raising Soldiers and Supporting Households will no longer be in charge, and there is still one percent. Li Yuanxing said unhurriedly.

When he heard that there was still Yicheng, Hou Junji's eyes lit up.

He knew that this was the part of Yicheng that he must have waited for the king, and this was the hard-earned money of him and his subordinates.

"This king promised to return 100 catties of snow salt every year. This piece is from you, and as many things as you get back are yours. And half of the output of the entire salt pan is at your disposal. There is also half of it for Shubao, and the expenses of the spies on the grassland are from this half of it, and the part of the Yan Ya, Murowei, Khitan, and Goguryeo is from you. ”

Managing money is equivalent to managing people.

Hou Junji understands that this is to give himself more salt, and then the spies in these four places will have to feed themselves.

So far, I haven't talked about the mission.

Li Yuanxing hadn't mentioned the task yet, he was still talking about salt, and took out a bamboo tube and put it in front of Hou Junji: "This is snow salt." Laizhou salt field, 20 acres, 800 strong labor, 1,300 quintals of coarse salt a year, and 1,000 quintals after refining snow salt. As many acres as Li Daozong can produce, there will be as much output as a year! ”

Hou Junji stood up after a while, and really wanted to say that if Li Daozong couldn't open 10,000 acres of salt fields, he should be punished.

Li Yuanxing smiled and motioned for Hou Junji to sit down: "One million quintals in the first year, and more than ten million quintals in three years." You don't have to worry about the quantity, this is a military order, and Li Daozong does not dare to slack off. There are larger salt pans, calm and sunshine. But it's not stable, so I don't dare to use it now, otherwise it's not too much to be 50 million quintals! ”

Hou Junji nodded heavily, and the second position that Li Yuanxing pointed to was on the seaside east of Youzhou.

It was harassed by Turkic, Khitan and other ethnic groups.

If you want to say that there are some ordinary coarse salts here, but things like snow salt naturally can't be placed here.

Hou Junji is even clearer, once the people of the Tang Dynasty eat snow salt, especially the scholars, rich businessmen, and Shu landlords. Who will eat that bitter coarse salt again.

Ordinary coarse salt is two or three pounds. This is the price according to the quality of the salt, and the difference is also a penny a catty.

Snow salt is the refined salt of refined salt, and it is not expensive to pay five pounds.

A hundred catties is five hundred pounds. 500,000 quintals is 25 guan, excluding all kinds of expenses in the middle, Hou Junji can get at least 200,000 guan of military expenses, which is a huge amount of military expenses.

According to the understanding of later generations, Hou Jun is greedy for money, and it is not wrong to be greedy for money, as long as there is measure.

"You don't want to keep any money for this salt. All as military expenses, this king will also ensure that you are rich! Li Yuanxing knocked on Hou Junji first.

Hou Junji immediately got up: "I will obey His Highness's arrangement!" ”

"There will be 30,000 cavalry to help you in the battle, and this king will transfer 10,000 soldiers, 10,000 auxiliaries to you, plus the 3,000 cavalry in your hand. The Khitans will surrender, how many cavalry they can send, this is your ability. Every year, once in spring and once in autumn, you can attack Goguryeo at will, and everything you loot can be exchanged for money! ”

"Got it!" Hou Jun gathered a long body and bowed.

"The land of the Devil is the fattest land in the world. The family will go to the wasteland, and will go to farming. Naturally, they will pass by your defense zone to keep them safe in exchange for a certain amount of money. ”

Li Yuanxing said, and Hou Junji nodded.

"Remember three reasons. First, don't fight hard with Goguryeo, your task is to weaken. It's your job to rob things and slaves. The battle damage should be small, whether it is our Tang Army, or the Yan Ya or the Khitan. The task is to weaken! ”

Li Yuanxing said twice about weakness, he was not afraid that Hou Junji would not comply, but he would rush forward desperately in the face of interests, once he suffered huge losses, then the mentality of the Yan and Khitan would change, and only under the premise of fighting with the wind, would he slowly run into a foreign legion.

Hou Cluster nodded: "I understand, weaken." ”

"Second, help the Yan Ya and grow stronger to fight against the Khitan. This will make it much easier for you to control the three clans. Help the family to sinicize the Yan Yan with the fastest speed, you should know the theory of this king, in a nation with no history, no culture, no tradition, no faith? ”

After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, Hou Junji stood up again: "A certain leader, the most five years are up, and it is my Datang!" ”

"Well, that's the goal. As long as the issue of the three clans is dealt with, this king will promise you a founding father! ”

In later generations, Hou Junji himself was the founding father, and it was sealed about three years after Zhenguan, and now Li Yuanxing's promise is completely a blank check.

However, the promise of a founding prince still made Hou Junji very tempted.

"The first thing about zuihou is that you have to train a hundred cavalry for this king, whether it is from my Tang army, or from the Khitan and the Yan. Five years, 200,000 military horses. ”

"Command!"

What is there to hesitate about such an order, Hou Junji accepted it without saying a word.

"Go home and have a look, and then visit Li Shangshu's mansion." Li Yuanxing is going to send off guests.

Hou Jun got up and saluted and left, he was really a little confused after receiving the order to transfer troops. Now the military power of the Tang Dynasty is said to be in the Ministry of War, but it is better to say that it is in the hands of Li Yuanxing, the king of Qin in the Tang Dynasty.

Especially the decisive battle between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, because of the sudden change, their five cavalry were equivalent to running in vain.

But the merit is still there.

At the moment, only one of his cavalry was left, and Hou Junji was a multi-minded person, so he couldn't help but ask.

When he came to Qinwangzhuang, Hou Junji knew three principles, one is to protect Li Daozong's salt field, which is the money road. The second is to weaken Goguryeo, lay the foundation for the future leveling Goguryeo, and train cavalry by the way. The third point is that Hou Junji's understanding is that there should be no kindness of a woman.

As for the image, Hou Junji believes that this is aimed at everyone outside of Datang.

You surrender to the Tang Dynasty, your soldiers are obedient, you are half of the Tang Dynasty. Not the other way around.

Hou Junji left, Li Jing was naturally going to visit there, it was the book of the Tang Dynasty Military Department, Li Yuanxing naturally had to report his order, and by the way, listen to Li Jing's comments.

In the early years of Zhenguan, Hou Junji was still quite low-key, because he knew that he did not have the strength to compete with others.

Li Yuanxing sat in the living room, holding a teacup and pondering, thinking that there was still something wrong with the arrangement of Hou Junji. The transfer of Chai Shao to Pingzhou was in itself a restraint on Hou Junji, so that Hou Junji did not dare to come lawlessly.

So, who is the most suitable to sit in Qingzhou!

Whether to leave it completely to Li Daozong, or choose another general.

Li Yuanxing is thinking about strategic issues, and the three points he is most concerned about now are Liangzhou, Fengzhou, and Pingzhou.

This Pingzhou was a city east of Beijing in the later dynasty, near the Bohai Sea, about present-day Lulong County, Hebei Province. It is to press Goguryeo in the east, Khitan in the north, and Youzhou in the west.

In the future, it can be said that this is the most important trading area of the three clans. Especially slaves from Goguryeo.

Wu Cao had actually arrived a long time ago, and when he heard that Hou Junji was coming, he had been waiting outside.

It wasn't until Hou Junji left that she entered the living room alone, looked at the map on the curtain and said to Li Yuanxing: "According to the historical records, Hou Junji is very greedy and ambitious. Li Yuanxing smiled and beckoned to Wu Cao: "It's a little bit more, Hou Junji's ability is extraordinary!" (To be continued......)
