"What if it's not easy? The conservative forces in the Wuhu region are quite strong, these people are obsessed with the Situ Dynasty, we don't need to be too accommodating, even if we accommodate them, it is difficult to get their support, but it provides a stage for them to oppose us, we might as well take more violent means against these people, we can provoke the hatred of those lower-class landless tenant farmers and hired peasants, and incite them to take revenge against these big landlords and nobles, and we will let them go and scare those big landlords away, and those low-class people who are deeply exploited by these big landlords and nobles will think of all kinds of ways to retaliate madly once no one is restrained, and then we only need to come forward to clean up the mess。 Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The thin scribe slowly stroked his beard under his chin, and seemed to think carefully before he continued: "Of course, this needs to be mastered to a certain extent, but at least for the time being, we can use the people who were originally arranged to provoke and incite those peasants who are not very rational, and now there are no peasants who have taken the initiative to seize land and property?" Very good, in adding a fire to them, let them make a lot of trouble, we only need to protect the loyal people who serve us, and when things get into trouble, those Shu landlords who stayed in the local area, whether it is the industrial and commercial forces, see this fire began to burn to themselves, they will naturally panic, either follow to ashes, or serve us, I believe that these people are smart people, will make wise choices, at that time, it is time for us to appear on the stage. ”

Bi Xiao admired his teacher's methods so much that he threw himself to the ground, lifting weights lightly, and he had already come up with a way to deal with the current unfavorable situation in a few words, and he was linked one by one, just in response to the thorny problems he was currently facing, Bi Xiao couldn't help nodding his head again and again.

After a deep sigh, the thin scribe said again: " However, at present, because the threat of the imperial naval fleet has not been lifted, it is not appropriate to go deep into the north, the imperial army in the five lakes to deal with the offensive launched by the Taiping people in the north has been quite weak, the northern waterway of Baling, and the capital of Wuhu County, Yueyang Mansion, is connected, although there is no danger to defend, but the navy can use this convenient river to enter and exit at will, our naval strength is still weak, and the imperial naval army can not confront the imperial naval army for the time being, and now we can only rely on Baling City as a defensive basis, and gradually soak to the north, thinking that the imperial army can only rely on Yueyang Mansion at this time, and take a defensive position, but it is not safe, but it is necessary to strengthen the scout patrol and search to prevent a small group of enemy troops from taking the opportunity to break through。 ”

"Rest assured, the teacher understands this and has already arranged it. Hearing the thin scribe's arrangement, Bi Xiao's heart was much calmer, and he turned around and asked, "How is the progress on the general's side?"

"It's going well, Emperor [***] The team left behind the southern front of the Wuhu is too weak, and it is impossible to resist our attack, everything is in our expectations, and the situation over there is roughly the same as here, what needs to be done now is to stabilize the situation, try to calm down the situation and let Wenning and Baling accept the reality, this time is the time for the people we have cultivated and developed in the past ten years to show their talents, and many things can be solved with them in the future, and the effect is one heaven and one underground than our appearance, although the local Tang people are forced to make chaos due to the situation, but after a long time, the people's hearts are difficult to stabilize for a long time, so it is necessary to make the local forces attached to us in the shortest possible time to form an autonomous political axeOf course, this will not give in until those who still have illusions are cornered, so what I have just laid out needs to be implemented immediately, the sooner the better, and the more noisy the better. A grim smile appeared at the corner of the thin scribe's mouth, and in order to achieve the necessary end, even if the means were not so bright, it could not be said.

Looking at the city gate in front of him, although he had been mentally prepared, Karon was still greatly shocked. Ordinary single merchant travelers entered and exited through the secondary gates on either side of the main gate, which served as the main passage for large caravans and horse-drawn carriages.

The inspectors are carefully checking whether the goods carried by the caravan merchants have paid the tax, the small building next to the city gate is probably the inspection agency of the tax department, although the inspectors are serious, but they are polite, as long as they do not carry prohibited items, even if they do not pay the tax, they are only paid on the side, and the large amount of course needs to pay a fine. The wagons entering and exiting the city gate were divided into two columns, lined up in a long line, waiting for the inspectors to check the spot, and everything seemed so harmonious and hot.

Even outside the city gates, it was bustling with food stalls and grocery stores of various flavors, which were created to facilitate the merchants and travelers who entered and left the city early in the morning, as well as the caravanseraismen and porters. There are pools of oil stars floating on the steaming mutton soup, the haggis and a few big bones in the churning cauldron are boiling with the soup, and a large stack of thick buns is neatly stacked, golden and crispy, which makes people itch, and even Caron can't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Uncle, can you have a bit?" Caron nodded, sat down with his partner, and the enthusiastic guy immediately greeted him, "Guest officer, what are you going to do?"

"Two bowls of mutton soup, five buns, plus a plate of beef. Caron didn't say much, his mind was completely attracted by the busy scene of people coming and going on the road, this is the case outside the city, and I don't know what happened in the city?

Thinking about these problems, even the fragrant and delicious beef and soup steamed buns seemed to become less fragrant, and the hunger just now disappeared with the mutton soup.

In fact, from the moment I stepped on the northern trade road that spanned the entire Tengger grassland, Kalong felt a trace of difference and the atmosphere of the past, most of the endless caravans came from the Tang River, silk, tea, pottery, porcelain, and shochu are still the largest export materials, but it can be seen that ironware, grain, cotton, wool, glass, The number of medicinal materials sold to the Tengger grassland is also gradually increasing, from west to east, the journey is twenty-five days, Caron made a statistic, a total of 338 caravans of all sizes were met on the road, including 252 caravans transported from the Tang River Empire to the Tengger grassland and the western continent, and 86 caravans were surpassed by their own group through the Tengger Grassland, and the average number of caravans encountered each day was more than 13 teams, which was only through the caravan of the northern trade route, and with the cancellation of internal tariffs of the Western Regions countries and the reduction of foreign tariffs, the caravans transiting through the Western Regions countries have gradually replaced the mainstream role of the northern trade routesand further south, the North Luzon trade route developed rapidly, all of which were obtained by Calon after talking to the merchants he met along the way.

It is not known how much transit duties such a large volume would bring to the Rope, but it is certain that the benefits of the Rope were definitely not only monetary, but also that many strategic goods such as iron and grain could be imported along this important trade route. However, what puzzled Caron was that since the Luope and Tanghe people already had such close economic ties and were said to have formed an alliance, why did the information obtained by his side be that not long ago the Luope people and Li Wufeng, the northwest king of the Tanghe people, had a big fight because of the Mott people, and they had a lot of grievances? Could it be that the Luope people were really so powerful that they could cut off their supply sources without taking into account the northwesterners? Caron did not believe this speculation.

The half-day stay in Mangye Town made Caron feel the prosperity of Qingyang again, although it is only a market town, its liveliness is far better than any place along the way, livestock trading market, The thriving vigor of the leather and fur market and the newly opened wool market made Caron, who thought he had seen the market, admit that the abundance of goods here far exceeded that of any other place in the Tengger grassland, and that this was only a market town in Qingyang Province, although the geographical location of this market town was somewhat special. Merchants from all over the country bargained here, and it can be seen that most of the merchants with a large amount of capital were Tang people, but there were still a few nimble Indians, Motts, Jurdes and even merchants from the Western Regions to join the ranks, and the merchants from all over the grassland belonged to various ethnic groups, and they mastered the first link of this acquisition by virtue of their familiarity with their own ethnic groups and tribal areas. The Luope people or the merchants of the Western Regions have forgotten their own nationality and origin, only negotiation, trading and payment, merchants are their only identity, and making money is the first thing.

Coming out of Mangye Town, Caron was thinking about what kind of changes would happen in this Qingyang City, and after more than an hour of rapid travel, he finally saw the demeanor of Qingyang City, the capital of the northwest.

While drinking this mutton soup, while thinking, Caron made a move, and the shopkeeper next to him probably saw that these two guests were unusual, just by the two of them's mounts, the sharp-eyed shopkeeper knew that it was not an ordinary product, and people who had lived in the northwest for a long time knew a little bit about horses, not to mention that the guest who looked like this master, even the servant's mount was a first-class healthy horse worth at least eighty gold coins, which was not something that ordinary people could afford to enjoy.

Waving his hand to signal the guy to be busy with himself, the shopkeeper ran over with a huff: "Guest officer, but what else do you need?"

Shaking his head, Caron pointed to the long line of convoys and packers and asked, "Boss, what's going on? Is there so many convoys waiting to enter the city every day?"

"Guest officer, it's morning, it's the time for the caravans to come in and out, the caravans in the city have to wait to go out of the city, and the caravans that arrived last night have to wait to enter the city to unload, it's like this every day, there are only so many people in the inspection department, but fortunately, it's just a big busy morning, and it's much better by noon. The boss explained with a smile.
