Closing the country is actually relative.

The long border line is not a stop from speculative business travel.

It's like a forbidden sea area that can never stop a fishing boat.

Because!

This boundless interest is always in the hands of a few rule-makers.

When ordinary people stand on the shore and look at the fishing boats in the distance and want to go out to sea, they are told that this is a forbidden sea area.

I can only sigh with admiration.

When the merchant standing on the south bank of the Zhenyuan Bridge looked at the merchant traveler riding a camel carrying a full load of goods and wanted to cross the bridge, he would be told that he could not fornicate with foreign merchants.

I can only look at the bridge and sigh.

All the explosions of development and knowledge are, in the final analysis, about people, not about other things.

Engraving printing in the Tang Dynasty, movable type printing in the Song Dynasty, paper in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties paper has been fine and smooth, white as jade, and then thousands of years have passed, Shengdou Xiaomin wants to learn knowledge or difficult to climb to the sky.

After all, it's a human problem.

Zhu Di couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It was impossible for him to stay for long, and after determining the situation, he quickly turned back.

I'm tired all night and just want to rest.

Guo Ying is back.

It also brought back a tentacle that may involve the Hongwu case and Hu Weiyong's case.

For a while, I sighed in my heart!

The Ming Dynasty explicitly forbade forbidding foreign businessmen, and once they were caught, they would be exterminated!

Guo Ying found a very interesting thing during the investigation of Liangzhou Wei.

Walking to the border of Liangzhou, Guo Ying bumped into Li Siyu, the third leader of the Lenglongling bandits, halfway!

Coincidentally.

Li Siyu had a little unpleasant trouble with Ma Wang, the big boss of the Lenglongling bandits, Liu Hong, the second leader, the third talented monk of the military division, and the ally Zhushanzhai.

Li Siyu felt that he should share 4,000 taels of gold as the third master, but everyone agreed that he should vigorously develop and give some gold to his brothers, and was cut off 1,000 taels of gold.

Li Siyu was very dissatisfied, so he went out angrily and found a tavern to drink, but met Guo Ying, Li Siyu did not jump and was captured by Guo Yingsheng.

Thereupon.

A shocking big secret was inadvertently broken by Guo Ying.

The Lenglongling bandits were as large as 10,000 bandits, and there were three hills, which were dedicated to robbing those merchants who secretly went out of the customs to trade.

At the same time, escort some caravans.

Moreover, the group of people at the pass of East Chagatai came and went freely.

And the ally Zhushanzhai is a team of people who are the general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the Bald Thorn, and the pseudonym Wang Thorn.

And this Li Siyu is even more interesting.

This person was the head of 10,000 households in the Shaanxi garrison army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, commanding 10,000 troops.

And the identity of this person is the cousin of Li Siqi, the political affairs of Shaanxi Pingzhang, before Xu Dabing entered Shaanxi, Li Siqi and the stables, the generals of Shaanxi in the late Yuan Dynasty, surrendered, these people took the Shaanxi Zhenjun army to the grass.

During the Second Northern Expedition, Feng Sheng and Fu Youde roughly plowed the military strength of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the Hexi area, and did not pay much attention to the bandits.

After Shaanxi was settled, these people who fell into the grass became active, and if they did not occupy Hexi, they simply plundered.

Ma Wang is the relative of the Ma family, and Liu Hong is the relative of the Liu family.

And the Sancai monk, who used to be the housekeeper of Hu Weiyong's mansion, was expelled from Hu Weiyong's mansion because of bullying and greed for money, and even received praise in Yingtian that year.

The family has three holes of cunning rabbits and a hidden hole.

It's not hard to see why.

But the old retainers of the three families and the important ministers of the dynasty are mixed together with the three holes of the cunning rabbit, then it is impossible to say.

And.

There are no caves at all, there are 100,000 taels of gold worth ore in Lenglongling, and there are countless gold, silver, jewelry, and jade.

Moreover, after the final distribution, these things will be sent back to the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

As for how to send Li Siyu back, I don't know, the military division Sancai monk is in charge of this matter, and Leng Longling will receive a message from the family to make sure that the spoils are in place.

Zhu Di, who knew what was going on, knew it clearly.

There are officials and businessmen in foreign trade, and the Shaanxi Buzheng Department buys horses in Hexi, Shandan, and even the West as a businessman.

The rest is private businessmen, that is, the collusion between court officials and the generals guarding the customs to secretly trade and obtain huge benefits.

Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu are all doing this.

And, he felt, it could be more than that.

"Summoning Zhang Guang over, just say that there is a military operation to discuss!"

Zhu Di came to his senses and didn't feel sleepy, but as soon as the words came out, he shook his head and said: "Wait a minute, the news of Lan County where you quietly returned can't let others know, I'll do it!" ”

Zhu Di went out and ordered someone to call Deputy General Yan and asked Yu Yan to call someone.

You can't get around the Lanzhou Guard, and you can't get around the right guard of the Navy Army.

Soon.

Zhang Guang was summoned.

"The last general will meet His Highness!" Zhang Guang has not yet noticed the visit to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di gave it straight, not wanting to waste time on Zhang Guang, so under Zhang Guang's happy gaze, he asked, "How much do you know about the collusion between the Ma family, the Liu family, the Li family and the Northern Yuan family in Lenglongling?" ”

"What, Your Highness, don't you understand what you said about the last general?" Zhang Guang hurriedly replied.

"Say, tell the truth, in addition to forgetting the things in the tent at this gate, you are still your town far away from the avant-garde thousand households!" Zhu Di looked at Zhang Guang calmly.

Previously, Zhang Guang was a deputy thousand households, and this power was already very great.

"The last general is really ......" Zhang Guang still wanted to struggle.

Zhu Di smiled and said: "Ma Wang, Liu Hong, Sancai monk, Li Siyu, do you want this king to continue?" ”

Boom.

Zhang Guang slammed his head on the ground with a bang, and wailed: "Your Highness, this matter has nothing to do with the last general and the Zhang family!" ”

"Our Zhang family is not qualified to join them."

I don't know if Zhang Guang knows everything, and he has endless words.

Zhang Guang is a descendant of the family of Zhang Liangbi, a general in Shaanxi at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, but Zhang Liangbi did not surrender and left Ningxia and eventually disappeared.

But Zhang Guang has strong personal strength and is brave in battle, so he was promoted to the position of deputy Qianhu.

The situation of Ma Wang, Liu Hong, and Li Siyu is basically the same as what Guo Ying said, but according to Zhang Guang's understanding, these three people were kicked out of their family trees for making mistakes as early as when the Northern Yuan Dynasty began to retreat.

This is well known.

So to some extent, this is just the personal behavior of Ma Wang.

As for who the Sancai monk is, Zhang Guang doesn't know.

But every time the Sancai monk appeared at the ferry with the goods, Feng Yi, the former Zhenyuan avant-garde Qianhu, would personally inspect and supervise the crossing of the river.

And every time the Sancai monk crossed the river, Feng Yi would invite his brothers to eat and drink, and give Zhang Guang a gold ingot.

This kind of appearance has been there since the establishment of Lanzhou Wei, and it has been almost four years.

Every year, the three talented monks basically keep two trips, at the beginning of winter, in spring, in summer, and in autumn.

There were ten boats of cargo at both the exit and the entry, and all of them crossed the river at night.

"You should understand what will happen to you if this king says what you said today, and your best choice is to forget what happened today."

"Go, escort 5,000 stone of grain and grass to the palace military town to this king, this is an order!"

Zhu Di threw Zhang Guang an order and let Zhang Guang go down.

Zhang Guang retreated very nervously.

In fact, Zhang Guang's role is very simple, that is, because of his position, as a deputy Qianhu, he also has the responsibility of leading people to inspect, and he can't avoid people who are not involved.

What really puzzled Zhu Di was.

In the past few days, Wu Mai has led boats to patrol the Yellow River, and there are hundreds of large and small ships, including three ironclad ships.

It is impossible for the Sancai monk to cross the river with ten boatloads of goods to bypass the right guard of the navy.

And Feng Yi is Feng Tao's cousin, and Feng Tao is Feng Sheng's cousin.

The Sancai monk is a house slave discarded by Hu Weiyong's face.

Ten truckloads of goods all the way through the checkpoints need to be cleared.

Just giving a little person like Zhang Guang a gold ingot at one time is shocking.

And the dignified Shaanxi commander Feng Sheng was transferred to Xiningwei by a paper order, which is really intriguing.

Even, Guo Ying, who used to be the old Zhu Jinwuwei, met Li Siyu, the third master of Leng Longling, so coincidentally.

Then Guo Ying promised Li Siyu a change in his identity in the way of stabilizing Li Siyu first, Li Siyu wanted to cooperate with the inside and the outside, and Guo Ying rushed back overnight to ask him to suppress the bandits, so he had to think deeply again.

It is difficult to trade with the Shen family.

The Shen family relied on shipping to rise, and the Ming Dynasty banned shipping.

The Shen family also relied on grain, tea, illegal salt and other bulk goods to make wealth, the Ming Dynasty banned the sale of illicit salt, the private grain price was limited, and the sale of tea also had to bear high tariffs.

Therefore, the people of the Shen family have always wanted to join the Jinwang clan and get rid of their identity as merchants, as long as they can become relatives of the emperor and the country, they are willing to spend their family wealth.

So.

The business is all over the country, and the Shen family, which is rich and rivals the country, has not been able to get their wish until they are raided and exterminated.

That's the threshold.

It's also Game of Thrones.

"The bandits of Leng Longling are bandits, bandits who do evil and cause trouble in all directions!"

"It doesn't matter to anyone!"

Zhu Di's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he only felt that there was a lot to be done.

It sounds like he has food, people, and weapons, but none of these things are him.

So he was poor.

And in this world, there is nothing faster than robbing and plundering money.

The Ma family, the Liu family, and the Li family also thought so, and Hu Weiyong also thought so.

But this kind of thing is resolutely unacceptable to these four.

As long as it is a bandit, no one can say anything if they are exterminated.

As for offending anyone, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and his fists are hard enough is the last word.

"Can't be too much, the movement is too big to hide, once it arouses the vigilance of the Leng Longling bandits, it will be troublesome!"

"It can't be detected by the Ma family, the Liu family, if the ventilation report escapes, it will be difficult to catch up again."

"There has to be a suitable reason to disappear."

Zhu Di decisively decided to go to suppress the bandits, this kind of thing can't come with great fanfare, and it has to wait until the dust settles.

"What, there is another trace of Yuanqi in Majiagou, you go and investigate!"

Zhu Di took away the hundred horsemen who belonged to the right guard of the navy, and the hundred horsemen of Zhang Yulong, the grain and grass superintendent.

You still have to be careful when doing this kind of thing.

"The soldiers and horses of the headquarters went to Dongchuan with the king to investigate the traces of the Yuan cavalry?"

Zhu Di quickly issued a transfer order, sooner rather than later, and quickly went to Liangzhou with a thousand horses.
