Those who achieve great things, no matter when and where, must have a sober mind! Chao Gai is such a person, and he will not commit a taboo in the enemy's war zone. There was enough meat at the banquet, but the wine was limited, and no one drank to the bottom of the table after the banquet. An emergency military meeting was immediately convened.

The new Deng Fei, Meng Kang, Tang Bin, and even Hu Cheng and Hu Sanniang are all participating for the first time, all of them are in good spirits, and everyone is excited.

"Brother, before the meeting, several military advisors asked the Sprinkle family to bring this thing." Lu Zhishen burped and handed a package to Chao Gai.

"Wu Junshi said that it might be helpful for the trip to the north, but he refused to reveal too much."

"Is there such a thing?" Chao Gai frowned, took it and opened it, it was a sandalwood box with exquisite workmanship, carved dragons and phoenixes, pushed open the golden light inside, gilded inside, silk satin base, and a holy decree lay quietly.

It turned out to be the holy decree of Bianliang City!

He recognized it with just a glance, and there was no surprise on his face.

Yes, Chao Gai has long deduced a lot of useful information from the words of the eunuch surnamed Wang. Yang Jian, one of the four traitors, refused to accept the old man, and jumped out again, in order to make money, he got involved in the mess of Shuibo Liangshan. With this gang of strongmen making trouble, armor, and equipment, there will be a market for equipment to sell.

Thinking about it bigger, the old eunuch paved the way for his righteous son to attract foreign aid outside the court. And he Chao Gai has strong financial resources, is quite famous, and has a deep understanding of officialdom, and is favored or supported by the eunuchs.

The imperial court forcibly made him an official, but he was inappropriate and ran to the north.

"The decree has arrived, and Chao Gai has received the decree." Chao Gai's ass didn't move, with a smile on his face, but he shouted like a eunuch, which made everyone burst into laughter.

But then I couldn't laugh!

Huang Chengcheng's holy decree grabbed people's eyes, making everyone stand up and exclaim.

"Hmm, that's the decree?" Hu Sanniang exclaimed and covered her mouth. Others such as Hu Cheng, Deng Fei, Meng Kang, Tang Bin and others were all dumbfounded.

"The court wants me to be an official, I must not hold back my fart, master, let's take a look." Chao Gai smiled, ready to open it but waved at everyone.

The Divine Decree is a rarity, and who wouldn't want to see it?

Everyone scrambled to surround them, watching Chao Gai spread out the holy decree in front of him. But when I saw the above content, my face became ugly.

It's not because the official is small, but it's clearly difficult, and he really didn't hold back his fart.

Chao Gai saw the end from the beginning to the end, and from the end to the head, and laughed a little crazy: "Hahaha, Lao Tzu knows that Cai Jing's old thing will definitely make ghosts." I didn't expect it to be like this, and I don't know if it was unintentional or intentional. ”

"Straight lady thief, where is the official not small? It must have been the idea of those traitors. Lu Zhishen, a red-faced man, was furious and scolded: "That emperor Lao Er listened to such slander, and he was stupid and incompetent. ”

Han Shizhong wanted to scold a few traitorous ministers, but in the end he smiled coldly: "This is obviously to let my brother be a pawn, or cannon fodder." After fighting Liangshan and taking office on the Northern Expedition, those traitorous ministers took advantage of the fishermen. ”

"Brother, this is clearly calculating you and blatantly sending you to death."

"This group of damn corrupt officials will have a chance to kill them all in the future."

Lin Chong, Su Ding, Tang Bin, Hu Cheng and others had ugly faces and scolded and scolded. Only Hu Sanniang looked at the holy decree and looked around, with a strange face. Finally, he looked at Chao Gai, who was calm and relaxed, and a smile appeared on his little face.

"Okay, whether this matter is good or bad, I'll discuss it when I get back." Chao Gai put the holy decree away and put it into the wooden box, smiling and comforting a few words. Thinking about the contents of the holy decree, I can't help but cry out in my heart that God will help me. Originally, there were only six or seven percent of the grasp of cooperation, but now it is basically safe.

"Brothers, return to your roots and begin today's meeting."

Chao Gai sat upright and spoke, but everyone stopped talking and returned to their seats one after another.

The theme of the meeting was very simple: how to bring back the livestock purchased from the Northland. God does not know the ghosts, does not ask for extravagance, and tries to minimize the impact.

In particular, the more than 10,000 war horses are terrifying, and the leakage is a great deal. There is really no way to change it to others, but Chao Jiajun is different.

Start developing a water army before you make a fortune!

The ready-made Grand Canal leads directly to Liangshanbo, and Chao Gai thought of this. Lu Zhishen, Han Shizhong, Du Bai and other generals also thought that they should take the waterway.

You must also take the waterway to reach Liangshan, and the news will be covered!

It's just—

The two battalions of sailors who rushed over had 30 passenger boats of 2,000 materials and 70 ships of 1,000 materials. There are more than 60 600 saury boats, and when you hear that there are a lot of ships, you can calculate that the total carrying capacity is less than 200,000 yuan.

Horses, cattle, sheep and livestock are not like people, they are large, they occupy space, and there are many carrying spaces, and at least ten people can be carried on two horses.

Coupled with enough forage and care personnel, more than 10,000 horses can be transported back in one trip, but horses come every day when multiple teams buy them. The generous gifts of the Liao State have not yet arrived, and the horses are definitely more than that.

Fortunately, the topic was not discussed for long, and it was unanimously decided.

If one trip doesn't work, then two or three, many trips!

The official and business flags given by the group of eunuchs are very easy to use, unimpeded, and very convenient.

Herds of cattle, sheep and livestock, or even large-scale purchases, are the main targets to consider!

Everyone in the Justice Hall brainstormed and expressed their opinions, taking into account various factors, how to transport safely and effectively, until there was a good plan.

After a few days, it will be implemented according to the plan!

Many soldiers were ordered, including the small minions of the cottage, one is counted as one, all of them are mobilized, the troops are divided into multiple ways, and they begin to prepare!

Some of them went to Jizhou and other neighboring counties and market towns in multiple teams to increase their efforts to purchase medicinal materials, saddles, forage and other materials.

Some of them transported hoarded supplies from the small road to the naval fleet.

In the end, most of the soldiers saddled the horses, stepped up their training uniforms to prevent riots on board, and even some of them had copycat blacksmiths nailed horseshoes just in case. Experienced people are responsible for sorting livestock such as cattle and sheep.

For example, sturdy male and female animals are given priority on board, and the smaller fat sheep are concentrated to fill the empty space on the ship that is not sufficient for horses. And the people who fled with their families arranged to get on the boat, take care of the livestock and so on.

The people on the side of Yinmachuan perform their duties in order to transport, and the division of labor is clear. With the arrival of the first and third battalion soldiers under the leadership of the sick insect Xue Yong. With thousands of new forces joined, preparations are even faster!

Time is busy, day by day!

The saddles purchased from cattle, sheep and horses from Jizhou City and other places are constantly being transported back. After the horses were tamed, they were quietly transported out of the country along with supplies, cattle, sheep and livestock, until they were received and boarded by the navy on the banks of the canal.

Methodical and endless. When the ships were fully loaded, they dispatched enough sailors to escort them. A group of three or five, seven or eight ships set off for the return voyage!

The purchase of cattle, sheep and horses and the purchase of materials are fully responsible for Hu Cheng and Duan Jingzhu. There are also cottage minions to serve in the classification of livestock, and a large group of generals such as Lu Zhishen, Han Shizhong, and Guo Sheng scramble to tame horses.

Chen Hu and Su Ding couldn't grab it, so they invested in intelligence work, not only a large number of scouts were scattered around the cottage, but there were also people in Jizhou City to inquire about the news. even got Chao Gai's approval, looking around for a suitable restaurant village store......

In the end, Chao Gai turned out to be the only idler!

There is nothing to do except tell the teams to act in strict secrecy outside.

It's not a thing to watch everyone busy in the cottage, and Hu Sanniang doesn't allow it. Every day, he is pulled either to help with training, or to visit and recruit everywhere.

He accidentally ate sugar cane from the north, which was so sweet that he had something to do. He commanded people to buy sugar cane wholesale from the village and boil it to make white sugar. He also asked Hu Cheng to buy a large amount of inferior water and wine at a low price and send it back to Yinmachuan. Purified with a marching boiler, the cottage is filled with the aroma of sweet wine.

Time flies, more than ten days have passed in a blink of an eye!

More than 10,000 war horses were safely sent to Shuibo Liangshan, and the return of the fleet was unimpeded. There is no rumor in the outside world, and it is really unknown and unaware.

Now the 1st and 2nd battalions of the navy have returned again, receiving more than 3,000 good horses and herds of cattle, sheep and livestock purchased during this time. Well prepared, fast speed, come to the day and set sail again.

Rao is so, drinking Machuan is still a herd of cattle and sheep wandering and frolicking. There are a lot of livestock in the Northland, and the procurement team will drive the herd back every day.

Originally, there were only more than 200 minions in the small cottage, and thousands of soldiers poured in. The appearance has changed dramatically, with simple wooden houses scattered and fortifications and arrow towers reinforced in front of and under the mountain.

Today's cottage has the style of Dazhai!

In the north, which is already vast and sparsely populated, more than a dozen teams poured out to buy horses everywhere. He also spent a lot of money to buy cattle, sheep, livestock, saddles, furs and other materials.

In the past, the Liao officials would definitely be aware of it, and they might also follow the vine. But recently, a series of blockbuster news has spread all over the country, causing an uproar in all the prefectures and counties of Liao.

The people's focus is on the northern border, where will they care about the surrounding areas of Jizhou?

The princess of Liao, Yelu Talibi, was assassinated by the Jurchens and was seriously injured and dying. On the way back to Jizhou, his father's younger brother King Yelu Dezhong was also assassinated by the Jurchen barbarians.

The Jurchens on the northern border repeatedly violated, and the Liao soldiers took the initiative to counterattack from the defense. The Jurchen front-line commander Wan Yan Yinshuke and the heads of the five generals under his command suddenly appeared on the battlefield, causing the Jurchen army to be in turmoil and have no intention of fighting, and the morale of the Liao soldiers was high, and the opponent who killed them was defeated and lost. chased and fought for more than 30 miles, and recaptured huge territory one after another.

A big victory!

It is the only big victory in recent years!

Then Yelu had to find out that some Liao nobles colluded with the Jurchens to assassinate them, and killed them by thunder, dozens of officials uprooted their families, and even the king chased and killed them to Yanjing, and then it is unknown.

These news are bigger than the other, and the people in the Liao State are all talking about it, and then the Jurchen barbarians spread it and are hated by others. Up and down the Liao country, there is a boiling of public resentment, and countless people have signed up to join the army.

The Jurchens sent people to stab the stinky chess, and stealing chickens and rice was not successful!

Jizhou City was swept by these news, and when Chao Gai learned about it, he was eating wine in the Juyi Hall of Machuan Cottage, and had a discussion on the matter.
