Chapter 797: A Radical Approach to Osumi

Lin Su's eyes flashed slightly: "If nothing else, the war will be temporarily suspended." ”

Li Xiaotian's eyes raised: "Will it be temporarily suspended?" ”

"Yes, Li Chi is a generation of heroes, and his actions are also disciplined, and when Ling Ding Yang becomes an unbearable burden for him, he will adjust his strategy and will not move blindly."

Li Xiaotian groaned: "This is what you are talking about, mediocre people act, only think about what they can and can't, and those who plan the overall situation act, but also look at whether it is worth it or not!" ”

"Yes! This is also the key reason why I asked you to close the door to negotiation and kill with iron and blood that day! Lin Su said: "From Li Chi's point of view, he refuses to give up the three thousand miles of mountains and rivers of the old Jin, and will definitely try his best to regain the old Jin, as long as your attitude is half loose, he will have illusions, only the iron and blood on the battlefield can really break his illusions and let him face the current status quo." ”

Li Xiaotian's eyes flashed: "Now, has he faced up to the status quo?" ”

"Look at the problem, see the subtlety! From the dispatch of the Chu army, you can know the autumn in one leaf! Lin Su said: "The Chu army is the last army of the twenty-three states in the south of Osumi, and it is also a very delicate army. ”

Li Xiaotian's brows furrowed: "Subtle? ”

Lin Su got up and poured himself another glass of wine, Du Yuting was in a trance, he didn't pour the wine first, he quickly took over the wine jar, poured a glass for Li Xiaotian, and listened attentively......

Lin Su explained......

The Chu army is very subtle, what's the trick? Its predecessor, in fact, is not the local army of Osumi, it is an army of the former Chu State, after the fall of the Chu State, this army was incorporated by Osumi, but Li Chi of Osumi can not be completely at ease with it after all, in the past, there were seven armies in the south of Osumi, and the three thousand miles of mountains and rivers of the old Jin Dynasty were under the control of Li Chi, and the Chu army was caught in it, and it couldn't turn the sky over, so Li Chi didn't care about this army.

And now, the situation has changed greatly, the southern army has been defeated, the front line of the battlefield has become zero, and no one in the Chu army can control it.

In this case, this army has become a hidden danger for Li Chi.

There are two ways to dispose of it.

First, as a forward force, it opened the way for Li Chi's army to open up the old Jin.

Second, use the army of the great cangs to destroy it and eliminate hidden dangers in order to determine the rear.

Speaking of this, Lin Su asked: "Which method do you think Li Chi used?" ”

"The second type!" Li Xiaotian's eyes lit up.

"Why?"

Li Xiaotian said: "In the early stage, Ling Ding Yang has buried four armies, each of which is stronger than the Chu army, the Chu army entered alone, and there is no chance of winning, except for borrowing the hand of the Flying Dragon Legion to destroy it, there is no second reason." ”

"Exactly!" Lin Su said: "Li Chi is starting to worry about internal hidden dangers, and he will no longer blindly use troops externally!" ”

This is the logical judgment!

Although the Chu army is not strong, it is also an army, and if Li Chi plans to recapture the old Jin at all costs, he will definitely not cut off one of his arms.

He slashed him, indicating that his internal hidden dangers had begun to threaten him.

"Internal hidden dangers......" Li Xiaotian said: "What will be there?" ”

Lin Su said: "The return of the Great Jin Dynasty, the biggest threat to Dayu is not only the loss of the three thousand miles of Jindi, but also a terrible chain reaction. Will there be dissenting thoughts? You need to know that these four countries were all seized by Osumi by iron-blooded means, where is there no resentment? Where is there no iniquity? What's more, Li Chiqi is a self-proclaimed generation of heroes, who only knows how to take the world on horseback, but does not know the secret of governing the world at all. ”

Li Xiaotian put the wine glass in his hand: "This is completely right!" Li Chi was worried that the old Chu would follow the road of restoration of the Great Jin Dynasty, so he disarmed the old Chu first, sent the Chu army to my Flying Dragon Legion, and let us destroy it! ”

Du Yuting listened to it beside him, his heart was surging, and he really admired the discernment of the two Shangguan in the chaos, no wonder he said that literati don't go out, they can know the world! They judged the movements of Emperor Osumi only by the dispatch of a Chu army, who can match this thinking?

Du Yuting spoke: "Lord Wang, Lord Hou, the strength of Dayu has been seriously depleted, and now there are many hidden dangers, can I cross the ocean and determine the northern border in one fell swoop?" ”

The Dingbei Border of that day refers to the three thousand miles of the old Jin Dynasty, and today's Dingbei Realm refers to the entire Dayu world.

Lin Su smiled: "General Du wants to pacify the entire Osumi in one fell swoop? ”

Du Yuting laughed: "Don't you want the prince?" ”

He asked this sentence, which was actually very rude.

Li Xiaotian looked at Lin Su, he also wanted to know the answer......

From the point of view of the literati, the demarcation of the border and the rule is the right way, the way of benevolence and righteousness, when encountering an existential threat, no matter how fierce the killing, there is no psychological barrier, but it is clear that it has the upper hand, and it is still exterminated, it is not a literati serious school, it is against morality.

Lin Su faced the gaze of the two and smiled faintly: "From the perspective of the literati, we should stop here and be mergiving; From the perspective of ordinary people, how can the hatred of the country and the family be forgotten? We are not just literati, we are not just ordinary people, we are still soldiers at the moment! There is only one angle from which the military stands - a strategic angle! From a strategic point of view, history should be a mirror! The thousand-year-old history of the nine countries and thirteen states tells us that in the face of a country based on killing and aggression, we cannot give them a chance to recuperate. ”

Du Yuting and Li Xiaotian's eyes lit up at the same time.

They had been worried.

They were worried that Lin Su would be satisfied with the demarcation of the border and rule.

Because this is something that almost all literati in Dacang will choose.

And the reason is extremely high......

The Holy Way rules the world, and seeks benevolence with benevolence!

When you encounter a strong enemy, it is right to kill bravely, but you have obviously gained the upper hand, and you have obviously forced the enemy not to dare to cross the thunder pool by half a step, and if you don't let it go, it will be too much.

If you cross Ding Yang again, what is the difference between you and the former Osumi?

And so on, every Confucian can say that he will never fry leftovers for three days and three nights......

However, as border generals, as old people from the four towns, they are unhappy!

Their loved ones died under the butcher's knife of Osumi, how can they forget the tragic howl of their loved ones when they died? How can we forget the shame of our sister who threw herself into a well after being insulted?

Now Lin Su gave a clear attitude.

Osumi, he's not going to let it go!

And his reason is equally strong: let Osumi rest and recuperate, and eventually raise a tiger!

With the heart of a wolf in Osumi, as long as he is relieved of this breath, he will still be the great enemy of the northern part of Dacang in the future!

Nine countries and thirteen states have learned this kind of painful lesson.

Even the world where Lin Su used to be also had the same lesson, in the feudal society, in the face of the northern nomads, what kind of relatives and the like, in the end, the people developed and grew, and the Han family was killed, even in modern times, such as the one who lived a good life, after coming out of the shadow of the defeated country, didn't it become uneasy? ……

The three of them had the same mind, and the topic began to be presumptuous......

At that moment, there was a soft knock on the study door.

Although the Wendao inside was blocked, and the voices were not connected, but the door knocked on the door, and the two people who set up the ban on the Dao were still alert, Lin Su waved his hand lightly to lift the ban on the Dao, and the voice from outside came in: "His Royal Highness King Wen, there is a businessman named Zhou Zuo, he said that he has some relationship with the Lin family, and wants to ask to see His Royal Highness King Wen, I wonder if His Royal Highness will meet him?" ”

"Zhou Zuo?" Lin Su frowned slightly: "Where are you from?" ”

"Locals!"

Lin Su shook his head: "Local, Zhou Zuo...... I don't know! Where did he come from? ”

Before the deputy general outside could speak, Du Yuting replied first: "This person will know that he is the president of the Northern Chamber of Commerce, the Northern Chamber of Commerce, doing the border business between Dayu and Dacang, and the power is also huge, transporting Dasuki's fur and pig iron to Dacang, and transporting Dacang's wine, perfume and other high-end goods to Dasu, in recent years, he has made a lot of money, and as soon as the border trade stopped, he couldn't stand it the most, in order to let his merchant ship go to the sea, he was in the city every day during this time, but he didn't expect that as soon as the prince arrived, he found it, Dare to have a friendship with the prince, this wind must not be long, and the end will be sent away! ”

As soon as Du Yuting stood up, he was about to go out to catch people, maybe not just to catch up, if he dared to make friends with Wang Yepan, he would have to be beaten!

At this moment, Lin Su raised his hand gently: "Let him in!" ”

Zhou Zuo entered the Commander's Mansion, his round body trembled a little, his round face was a little red, and when he saw Lin Su, he knelt down: "Grass people Zhou Zuo, see the prince!" To see the prince, the grass people are fortunate to have three lives, and they are fortunate to ......have three lives."

"Get up and ask you a few words!"

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Zhou Zuo stood up.

"What kind of business do you have?"

As soon as he asked these questions, he immediately ignited Zhou Zuo's confidence......

His business has a long history......

From the time of his grandfather's grandfather, it was to do business......

When the Great Jin Dynasty was still the imperial dynasty, his family did business, and the Great Jin Dynasty became a place where the country died, and his family was also doing business, even if the dynasty changed, his family did the same business, but when the situation was turbulent, the business had changed somewhat, and the businessman had no power to protect himself, so the businessman was accustomed to establishing a chamber of commerce, and the Northern Chamber of Commerce came into being......

The business of the Northern Chamber of Commerce is all-encompassing, transporting pig iron and fur from Osumi to the south, and grain and silk from the south to the north, which is the most mainstream business of the Northern Chamber of Commerce.

They take shipping, so the Northern Chamber of Commerce has a fleet that is not small, and it specializes in traveling to and from Lingdingyang.

This business has been doing very well, especially after the Lin family's various new products came out, they were shipped to Osumi through their fleet, setting off waves and making them a lot of money.

What he said before entering the door was that he had some connections with the Lin family, and this was what he was referring to......

Say a thousand things and ten thousand, a thousand things were good in the past, but this year is difficult everywhere.

Dacang recovered the three thousand miles of mountains and rivers of the old Jin Dynasty, completely cut off the shipping of Lingdingyang, the business of the Northern Chamber of Commerce could not be done, the Northern Chamber of Commerce was not just his Zhou Zuo's Chamber of Commerce, there were thousands of households behind, these people could not do business, they could not survive, and the business in various places fell into a state of stagnation, and the people were also greatly affected......

He said a lot, Lin Su held the teacup in his hand and his eyes were half-narrowed, as if he was out of his mind, and the corner of Zhou Zuo's eyes was cold when he saw this expression......

However, Lin Su opened his eyes: "It's okay to trade across the Zero Ding Ocean!" ”

No way!

Everyone's eyes widened in unison.

Is it possible to open this opening?

Zhou Zuo was surprised and delighted, almost unable to believe his ears......

Lin Su's eyes sank: "The current Lingding Yang is not the Lingding Yang of the past, but the border between the two countries, the border trade between the two countries, and you have no opinion on the collection of tariffs, right?" ”

Zhou Zuo's heart sank: "Naturally, I have no opinion on tariffs, but I don't know how much to accept?" ”

Business, they have seen a lot of people blocking the road and charging fees, and they can accept three out of two percent, but if they are eighty or ninety, no one can stand it.

"Sort the price, the highest is no more than two percent, and the lowest is half percent! Subsequently, Zhenbei Hou drafted a charter and issued a notice! ”

Li Xiaotian stood up straight: "Yes!" ”

Zhou Zuo fluttered, knelt down again, and his voice trembled: "Xie Wangye, Xie Houye!" The tax wasn't high at all, and it was even more favorable than the most preferential policy he could think of.

Lin Su said: "Although the king allows goods to cross the border, however, there are restrictions, at this stage, the Jin Kingdom has just experienced war, all kinds of waste to be rebuilt, the people are still suffering, so the three kinds of materials such as grain, cloth, and coal are not allowed to be exported, but those who export these three types of materials are chaotic and unforgiving!" ”

Zhou Zuo's face was squirming: "These three types of materials, although they are also operated by this association, but what the prince said is reasonable, the grass people must restrain the chamber of commerce to which they belong, and resolutely do not allow a single meter, one grain, one coal and one cloth to be on the ship!" ”

"Okay, you go down, the details are subject to the announcement of the Commander's Mansion!"

"Yes!"

Zhou Zuo kowtowed, beaming with joy......

In the air, in the Nine Tone Ding, the two women looked at each other......

"Just now they were locked in the study, blocking our monitoring with a Wendao blockade, it seems that they were discussing something, otherwise, why did this change suddenly happen?" Liu Tianyin said.

Feng Wu said: "This is not a big change, is it? He is famous for having the world in mind, and this Zhou Fat Man is in the needs of tens of millions of businesses and hundreds of millions of people, so I guessed that he would loosen commercial control. ”

"It seems normal to deregulate business, but I still think there is something else in it because it came from him." Liu Tianyin said.

Feng Wu shook his head lightly: "I said that you just have seen him very much!" If you have to find a reason, I'll give you two...... First, he himself attaches great importance to business, wherever he goes, where he is, commerce is booming, Haining, Nanshan, Beichuan are all like this, and even his Lin family also relies on business to rise, business, in his eyes, is not lowly at all, but a means to get rich; Second, there are indeed thousands of merchants behind the commercial chain, and it is indeed related to the livelihood of the people in Jindi. ”

Liu Tianyin's eyes fell: "The two of them were strolling around the city, and once again opened the Wendao blockade, guess what, does this Wendao blockade represent the deeper meaning behind the liberalization of commercial control?" ”

Feng Wu glanced at her: "Do you want him to do good or bad things?" He finally did a good thing in orthodoxy, you have to use infinite malice to figure him out, you have to force him to be bad, right? ”

Below, above the city, Lin Su and Li Xiaotian opened the Wendao blockade, because what they wanted to talk about could not be known by a third party......

"Business war, how do you interpret it?" Lin Su Dao.

Li Xiaotian's eyes flashed: "You define business as war, and I can roughly interpret three points." ”

"Tell me about it!"

"First, raise the army with business!"

The change of the throne of Dacang, the country is in ruins, the treasury is empty, Ji Guang is facing the first problem since he ascended the throne, he has no money at hand, but there are many things to do.

He was absolutely not stingy with the Flying Dragon Legion, and planned to order someone to send military expenses as soon as possible, but this normal move still brought resentment from other armies, which was not a good phenomenon, so Li Xiaotian sent a letter to the emperor and rejected the military expenses, avoiding the emperor's dilemma.

However, the army can not drink the northwest wind, this critical moment, the king of Jin Li Qingquan reached out to help, opened the treasure house left in the palace that day, and used all the money in it to relieve the urgent need of the Flying Dragon Legion.

It's not a long-term solution either.

The money and grain left in the palace of King Jin were only a small part that they didn't have time to transport.

The officials in the local government are more thorough, as soon as they notice that the wind is wrong, they roll up and run, these years, the demon clan storage bags are all over the world, providing them with great convenience, resulting in Li Qingquan even if he occupies the entire old Jin, he is still poor at hand.

It's a dead end.

As soon as Lin Su arrived on the shore of Lingdingyang, he opened a business route, collected customs duties, and raised the army with taxes, and solved the problem of military spending for the border army thousands of miles away once and for all.

Lin Su nodded: "Not bad!" To raise the army with business and avoid His Majesty's dilemma, this is the first, and the second is not? ”

Li Xiaotian said: "Second, probably on your ban, you banned the transportation of grain, cloth, and coal to the north because these three materials have always been the main materials sent by Jindi to Osumi, and once this material is broken, Osumi will be extremely difficult in the next winter." ”

"Haha! You've done your reading! Lin Su said: "The competition between countries is far more complicated than the personal competition, to weaken the strength of a country, it takes multiple laws at the same time, I have a ban, so that he cut off the Jin grain, Jin coal, Cangbu, in the corner of the bitter cold land in the north, lack of food and clothing, at the same time, I do not prohibit high-end luxury goods, with these flashy materials, in exchange for the real useful production materials of the big corner, such as iron, such as fur, in the long run, his national strength is weakening day by day, domestic contradictions are becoming increasingly intensified, the inherent hidden dangers that exist, will appear crazy, and when Li Chi is in a hurry, hehe......"

Lin Su gave an in-depth interpretation, and Li Xiaotian's eyes were really opened.

For the first time, he knew that ordinary commercial trade also had such a great knowledge, and he could use commerce to strengthen the country, or use commerce to weaken other countries, and even use the interests of commerce to change the industrial structure of the other country, and then manipulate the shopping mall to cause a major earthquake in the other country......

The high-level art of war, grass and trees can be soldiers, water and fire can be soldiers, and commerce can also be soldiers......

Lin Su finished explaining: "Okay, if you continue to implement it in this way, it will be the beginning of spring next year at the shortest, or a year or two at the latest, and there will be changes on the other side." ”

Li Xiaotian nodded: "Are you going?" ”

"Yes, go see King Jin."

A mysterious smile appeared on Li Xiaotian's face: "I think you should go to Lingding Bay first." ”

"Why?"

"Because the Night Maiden and the two county lords are there."

"Two county lords?" Lin Su's heart jumped slightly.

"Don't you know? After the night girl and the Xuanji county lord completed the sweep on the Jindi cultivation path a month ago, they returned to Haining and picked up the green-clothed county lord, they have been running around the people every day for the past month, trying to find a good way to make a living for the people of Jindi, but the news that came back does not seem to be optimistic, the land of Jinnan is okay, this land of northern Jin, thousands of miles of quicksand, there is no livelihood. ”

……

Lingding Bay is the end of Lingding Yang, looking down from high altitude, a white belt starts from Lingding Yang, continues thousands of miles away, everywhere you go, there is no mountain, no water and no soil, there is only a piece of snow white.

Standing in the vision of the literati, this scene of the sea and the sky is very shocking and spectacular.

It is not against the norm to write, oh no, to copy a bunch of psalms.

But from the perspective of relieving the people's difficulties, Lin Su also had a bit of a headache for a while.

At first glance, there really isn't much life here.

The most important thing is that there are still a lot of people, and he can see hundreds of settlements at a glance in the air, and there are at least tens of thousands of people in each point.

These settlements built thatched huts in the white sand, with dots of green in front of and behind the houses, but also dots of stars.

Today is the beginning of July, the hottest time of the year, and the white sand at this time is similar to the white casserole, in which the residents are boiling, and the men are all naked, like half-cooked pork ribs in a pot.

Don't look at them in front of them, they can't wait to peel off all the skin on their bodies, and you'll see in a few months.

This place is the northern border, the land of the Southern Jin Dynasty is moistened by the Jinjiang River, blocked by the high mountains, the climate is relatively humid, and this white sand beach, directly connected to the Lingding Ocean, the cold air in the north drives straight in, others enter the autumn it winters, others enter the winter it enters the ice kiln, Lin Su can not imagine that in a few months, these residents on the uncovered white sand will spend the long winter of almost half a year in the north.

Looking at the direction that Li Xiaotian said, Lin Su once again discovered beauty.

In the embrace of the ocean, there is a manor, the manor is bordered by the ocean in the north and the white sand in the south, which is elegant and ingenious.

It is called Lingding Villa, and it is the private residence of the former Hengcheng Taishou.

This Hengcheng Taishou betrayed the Jin State to take refuge in Dayu, and the money looted was obviously enough, this Lingding Courtyard as a golden signboard of the Jin land, and the reception of the Confucianism from Dayu over the years, the name was obviously enough, however, with the defeat of the Dasui army, everything became a wedding dress for the King of Jin.

Lin Su led the little monk Kongye, stepped out of the commander's mansion, landed on the white sand in the air, and walked towards the Lingding Courtyard, the breeze from Lingdingyang blew, and he seemed to hear the echo from history on this long river ancient road......

Jin Yu competes for power, Cangjin fights for power, the world deduces endless changes, the sky is still this sky, the earth is still this land......

Everyone is a passerby of life, the difference is what kind of mark will you leave on this world on this journey......

There is a group of village girls in front, under the scorching sun, they are digging sand in the white sand, their rough faces are faintly red, this kind of red, not moving shyness, but the residue of the scorching sun, this is the real state, those people who painted the holy family should really come to see, you see those village girls in your peach garden, what are the most beautiful blush on their faces? It's not real at all......

As he approached, several village girls looked up at the same time, and as soon as they saw this rare young man in the north, the village girls finally blushed on their faces, and a little bit of it seeped out, and they finally had a moving color......

"What are you doing, girls?" Lin Su waved his hand to say hello to them.

"The good godson learned that the slave family was digging up white orange roots." A bold village girl pulled out a white rhizome from under the white sand, like a turnip, but smaller than a turnip and longer than a turnip.

"Is this food?"

"Hmm!"

"Is it delicious?" Lin Su took a white orange root and pinched it, and the moisture was quite sufficient.

The village girl laughed: "You can't eat like this, you have to cook it to eat, cook it with mountain jasmine to remove the fishy smell, add some medicinal herbs, it's very delicious, we are digging it for the county lord......"

"The county lord asked you to dig it?"

"It's not! The county lord has been helping us villagers find a way every day, and we don't have anything else for her, so we want to get some local products for the county lord to taste......

Maybe it's because Lin Su looks more amiable, or maybe it's because his smile is showing that he looks extraordinarily unpretentious, and these village girls are gossiping.

(End of chapter)
