In the Shuai Mansion of Longquan Pass, Li You touched his chin with his hand and pondered after listening to Guo Dayong's report.

One, where will the magic dragon rider go? If they go to the Western Regions, they should go through the north gate, and they will not take the giant wolf of the forest, but find a way to get a camel.

Li You thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand that one of the two places in Hexi and Hedong was a place where there was a garrison in Xiaoqishan in Hexi, and he didn't think that he could do anything with more than 1,000 people. And Hedong, it's even less fun. After thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out, so Li You simply didn't want to.

The second point is what Guo Dayong said, the problem of reselling grain.

Before, he sent the businessmen from the capital, and now he regrets it a little, money is not a bad thing, it takes money to win people's hearts, and it also costs money to enjoy life.

Although the grain yield per mu in the northern plains is not as high as that of the provincial highways in the south, it accumulates early and has low taxes. The common people have food in their hands, although more than a year ago, Zhou Zhe transferred a lot of food from Beiyuan in order to crack down on merchants, but even so, Beiyuan is not short of food.

"You say, those people are copying the accent of the capital?" Li You pondered for a long time before saying such a sentence.

Guo Dayong's kneeling legs and feet were numb, and he nodded: "I'm sure, and there seem to be people from the Royal Forest Army inside, I have seen their weapons." ”

The corners of Li You's mouth rose: "It's a little interesting." ”

Guo Dayong hit the railway while it was hot: "Third prince, I pondered, even if we don't dump the grain in the Northern Plains, there are people who dump it, and those people are not short of grain, and they also want to sell it, otherwise we will do it?"

Li You nodded.

Guo Dayong saw Li You nodding, and his heart was hot: "Then let's organize auxiliary soldiers to go to the village to collect grain from door to door? Even if we don't have money, let's sign a contract, go back and sell the grain to them." Look, can we do this?"

Li You originally had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but when he heard Guo Dayong put forward such a bad idea, he immediately slapped Guo Dayong's helmet and scolded while slapping

"Stupid! stupid people, give Lao Tzu a bad idea, people don't take cash money, take your white strips, are you stupid or the people are stupid?"

Guo Dayong's helmet was almost hit to cover his eyebrows, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

"You take the auxiliary soldiers, go to the intersection leading to Tongcheng and watch, and then pass on my order, tell Yan Fucheng in Star City, strictly investigate, and don't let a grain of grain flow out of Beiyuan. The North Plains are in our hands, and if we want to make the wealth of our realm, we dare not do the God of Wealth. Find a few more clever ones, go to Tongcheng, and check the background of those merchants. ”

Although he couldn't figure out Li You's method, Guo Dayong would still do it, left, ordered 10,000 auxiliary soldiers, and asked to go to the predetermined place in ten days. At this time, I am about to be busy farming, and 10,000 is already the limit. Moreover, the auxiliaries will not let the people in the court find any fault.

At this moment, under the control of Shi Yunjie and Su Daosan, the price of grain in various places is slowly rising, but it is not a price a day like a natural disaster.

Shi Yunjie, who was full of red light, said so

"This is called moisturizing things silently. Now it is no secret that the imperial court is printing more food stamps, and everyone knows that it will rise. Even if the emperor asked, it would be fine. Not to mention us, isn't his imperial merchant Liu Taoren also hoarding grain? Moreover, there are many people in the world who are hoarding according to the trend, and this month, as long as we settle the accounts of the household department, everything will be safe and sound. ”

Su Daosan saw that his wealth was increasing every day, and the relatives in the capital respected him more and more, and a sense of pride arose.

"Yes! Yun Gong's empty hand is a white wolf, and he deserves to be beautiful. It's just a pity that Huang is going to the fourth floor. But there is no way, nothing can escape the eyes of the internal guard. ”

The two hugged the beautiful women from Shandong Dao and drank wine, but after a while, Shi Yunjie's housekeeper hurriedly came over.

Looking at the housekeeper's hurried appearance, Shi Yunjie knew that something might have happened, he pushed away the beautiful woman on his body and motioned for the housekeeper to come over.

"The grain road in Tongxian County was cut off by the generals under the three princes. ”

When Shi Yunjie heard this, his face changed, now the grain everywhere is almost the same, Beiyuan is the last piece of fat, obviously no, he came secretly, and as a result, he was still discovered. If he doesn't continue to flip, he doesn't know when he will be able to return the money he earns from the white wolf with empty gloves.

"Which general, how many soldiers and horses did you bring, do you want to know clearly?"

"Guo Dayong, a close confidant of the third prince, brought 10,000 auxiliary soldiers. I also checked our background. ”

After Shi Yunjie sent the housekeeper, he no longer had the intention of drinking and enjoying himself.

"Master Su, what do you think?"

It is said that cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, and the hand of the third prince really makes him embarrassed, first, he listened to Huang Qi's words and saw that the third prince is very likely to be the prince of Jian Zai's heart, and second, this wealth cannot but be made.

"Otherwise, let's get in touch with the three princes? Let someone put on a letter to discuss the matter of establishing the prince? When the time comes, find a competent person to talk to the three princes?"

Shi Yunjie touched his beard, his eyes flashed, Su Daosan's method was good, with the support of the court, in exchange for a way to make money. But then he thought, in this case, if Li You comes to power, can he bypass us?

"Contact the third prince first, if the price he asks for is not too much, we will agree to him. The matter of the prince cannot be easily touched, if the third prince does not agree. Hmph, let's take a copy of him, let him figure it out, we are not easy to mess with. ”

Although Su Daosan was still worried, since Shi Yunjie said so, he had no opinion.

Within a few days, Shi Yunjie and Su Daosan found a trustworthy person in the capital and went to Beiyuan.

Originally, they wanted to find a house slave housekeeper or something, but in the end, they felt that their words were not weighty enough, and finally went around and found a person, Yong Yihou and Tan Ze.

Since beating his daughter, Yongyihou's life has not been easy, but Li Chi seems to have found out his conscience, but he took care of him very much, and let his son go to the Imperial Forest Army to be a thousand households. And Su Daosan is a person who shoots with sycophants, so he is naturally good to Tan. The interests have always been mixed with him, and some benefits have been shared. This time, I felt that it was good to use him.

Because Tan Ze is timid and easy to control.

This side has gone to Kitahara.

Huang Ke, who received the secret report that the demon dragon rode and Lin Xiaoer was gone, almost smashed his intelligence room.

"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! It's such a big living person, and you can't see it? What are you going to eat?"

Huang's biggest dream is to replenish yin and anti-yang, and to have a complete body, whether it is to leave descendants or to enter the soil for peace, it is a good result. Unexpectedly, this road was full of accidents.

"Go and find it. To live to see people, to die to see corpses. ”

The person Huang was looking for was already going around to the north of Hexi, the last inch of land in the northern plains.

"Hexi in front?" Liu Maosheng, did you think of how we could fight?" Li Fei was neither big nor small, with grass roots in his mouth, leaning on his horse, and looking at his head to the sky.

Liu Maosheng shook his head: "Our pair of people are too conspicuous, when we go to Hexi, we must first pass through the boundary of Feijian Villa and Xishan Sect to the south, we are familiar with the road, but how can we not know that Dao Xiaoqi Mountain is a problem." ”

Liu Maosheng was worried, but Shi Yan in front received the news of the scout who came out

"General, there's a caravan ahead of us. ”

"Caravan?" Liu Maosheng's eyes froze, and he immediately guessed which one it was.

At the beginning, when Zhou Zhe was there, in order to raise dragon spiders and expand the strength of the two factions, he asked Hexi to send timber and coal to Beiyuan, and Beiyuan supplied grain, grass and livestock.

"How many, how large?"

"The scale is not small, and it is still being counted. ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Maosheng, Li Fei, and Liu Dasui all came to their senses.

"Hmph! I hope it's the people of the Xishan Sect and the Flying Sword Villa. When the time comes, there is no burden to kill. Liu Maosheng pulled the bowstring casually, which could be regarded as setting the tone.

Li Fei said even more ruthlessly: "These two factions, when they took the lead in besieging Hou Ye, took the lead in reversing the water, they were indestructible, and it was difficult to destroy the ruthlessness in their hearts. ”

The same is true for the rest of the people, the matter of the Heavenly Oracle was spread by these two factions, and it is not a secret now, and besides, they have not done anything good before and after.

Just then, the scouts also returned.

"There are about 100 disciples of the Xishan Sect and the Flying Sword Villa in front, and about 2,000 people. There are countless carriages and horses. ”

"So many?" Liu Dasui was also taken aback.

Wei Lan was accustomed to saying: "Look at the road under our feet, you can understand, all these years in the Northern Plains have been burning coal in every household, where did it come from." The road is all black, but it's a pity that they make money but don't do good things. ”

"What are we going to do?" Li Fei lost the grassroots, took out his knife, and jumped onto the horse.

Liu Maosheng sneered: "Just wait here, everyone looks at my eyes." ”

Everyone looked at Liu Maosheng's small eyes and was speechless.

About a quarter of an hour, the mighty procession had already appeared in everyone's sight, Liu Maosheng and everyone were just riding on horses, looking at the approaching convoy.

The people in the convoy also saw Liu Maosheng's team of people armed to the teeth, and they didn't care, the front was Beiyuan, there could be no bandits here, and they didn't dare to have bandits, so there was only one possibility, it was patrolling or training Beiyuan cavalry.

"Dare to ask. Which general is in front?" As soon as he was far away, an elder deacon of the Flying Sword Villa asked with his spiritual power.

Liu Maosheng said with a grin: "The scalper has a team of 1,000 people. Are you disciples of the Flying Sword Villa and the Xishan Sect?

"Look up for a long time, look up for a long time. We're just going to send coal to the northern plains. ”

After dispelling the enemy's defense, Liu Maosheng whispered to several hundred households around

"Remember, it's the disciple of the Flying Sword Villa who has the shuttle on his body, and he will be killed first. I don't want to see casualties, remember. ”

"Yes!" a few hundred households dispersed in a low voice and began to issue orders.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoer was arranged at the end of the team, the main reason is that he is too famous, and his figure is conspicuous.

Li Fei patted Liu Dasui on the shoulder and said, "Yes, Liu Dabeard, you are so insidious." ”

Liu Maosheng didn't care at all: "What is this?" On the battlefield, it is the grandfather who wins, and it is also the ability to be insidious. ”

The caravan got closer and closer, and the Dragoons lined up on the side of the road, watching the approaching caravan.

The deacons and elders of the two factions in the caravan looked at first and were still chatting, but as they got closer, the more they felt that the armor of these people seemed to be different from the light cavalry armor of Longquan Pass.

At this moment, a good-eyed disciple said in a bit of a panic, "They are the symbol of the Demon Dragon Rider, the Black Armor Skull Dragon. That sign. . . Moreover, they rode giant wolves. ”

"What?" the deacons and elders were startled, and their feet suddenly stopped, but the people of the caravan were still driving forward.

"Stop. "The elder of the Flying Sword Villa has given an order that should not be given at this time, because once it stops, Liu Maosheng will inevitably find that something is wrong.

"They seem to have stopped. A hundred steps away, Shi Yan asked Liu Maosheng.

Liu Maosheng's eyes froze: "Kill!"

"Boom!" Thousands of demon dragon riders rushed along the grass on both sides of the road, like cracking rocks through the sky.

"It's a dragon rider. Tell the suzerain that they have come for revenge. As soon as one of the deacons finished speaking, an arrow shot straight through his throat.

The disciples of the Xishan Sect began to form a formation, while the disciples of the Flying Sword Villa harnessed the Flying Shuttle and prepared to escape. The shadow of the famous tree of people, the strength of each person in the Demon Dragon Rider, is now around the fifth order, and it is impossible for them to win at all.

"Whoosh!whoosh!" arrows shot out, and the disciples of the Flying Sword Villa, who had just ascended to the sky and had not yet accelerated up, were shot down like dumplings. The disciples of the Xishan faction formed a formation to defend, but they seemed to be ignored, and as for the panicked people, they didn't know why these cavalrymen wanted to kill, but they just hid under the car in fear. They think very simply, whether it is a robber or someone, they always have to be carried by someone to rob something. And run, where can you run?

The disciples of the Xishan Sect broke out in a cold sweat one by one, and the weapons in their hands trembled a little, staring at the front.

A cloud of smoke passed, and the Demon Dragoon swept by, seemingly ignoring them.

But before he could breathe, a hammer with a chain was thrown directly from the smoke and dust into the crowd as fast as lightning.

"Phew!" A frightened disciple of the Xishan Sect was directly hit by the hammer, and the person did not fly, but half of his body was gone.

"Bloody on the ground. Someone shouted out the name of the hammer's owner in horror, and the next moment, the retrieved hammer swept through his body.

"Hmph!" Lin Xiaoer snorted coldly, like a giant beast from the smoke and dust, and under his crotch was a giant forest wolf with a black body.

It's just that with this murderous look, few people dare to look at it directly. The moment he appeared, the war was over.

"Run!" I don't know who shouted this, and then, the formation that had just been formed dispersed in a hurry.
