Chapter 350: War Horse
The business channels of the Elk family are no less than those of the Zhen family.
Especially in terms of making money from Hu merchants, they play import and export, they are very proficient, and it is normal for them to have channels to trade with foreigners.
"Is there a trade route for our Elk family to enter Hanzhong from Qingni Pass, and finally cross Qishan to southern Qianghu? In the past, it was also through this trade route to avoid Guanzhong, and the amount of tax paid could be much less. ”
Lu Zhu looked at an old servant of the Elk family beside him and asked.
The old servant looked at the map, stretched out his hand to draw a line on it, and nodded: "This trade road, probably here, can avoid Guanzhong." ”
Ma Teng and others in Guanzhong and Liangzhou, seeing such a large number of war horses passing by their own territory, will definitely have special thoughts, and no matter where the businessmen come from, it is very likely that they will rob them.
If you pass through Hanzhong, you can effectively avoid everything.
"These places are full of mountains, and it's not easy to walk!"
Yang Zhao looked at Yutu, shook his head and said: "Even if you come out of Hanzhong, you still have to pass through the northwest of Jingzhou, and you can only send the war horse out through Yuzhou, and it is difficult to guarantee that Liu Biao and Cao Cao will not snatch it." ”
In particular, the business name of the Elk family transports war horses.
They don't want to see Yang Zhao grow, and it is very likely that they will rob it.
It's another trouble, and they get lost in thought.
"Those mountains, in fact, are not difficult to overcome, we have opened up trade routes, even if it is difficult to walk, it will not be difficult."
The old servant pointed to the Han River not far east of Dingjun Mountain to the east of Kei Valley, and said: "As long as we arrange for the big ship to wait here, and then the war horse is hidden on the boat, as long as we avoid the eyes and ears of Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, we can flow into the Yangtze River along the Han River through the big boat, and finally send it to Qingzhou." ”
Elk's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said: "This method is feasible, although our Elk family is in business, but the prestige is still there, as long as the people outside don't know that we are transporting war horses, and then use some money to do everything, no one will come to check, or intercept, and can be sent." ”
The Elk family is equivalent to a chamber of commerce all over the Han Dynasty.
For example, the elk family is responsible for selling it in the south, and even in hostile areas, no one will come to make it difficult.
If there is a dilemma, the Elk family will reduce the sale of various materials to this place, which is equivalent to the common sanctions in the future, and it can still have a certain impact.
As long as the transport is not armament, so that the enemy cannot detect that it is a war horse, everything is possible.
"How many war horses does the lord want?"
Lu Zhu asked again.
"Five thousand!"
Yang Zhao said: "If it works, try to bring it out as much as possible, it's really not good, don't make unnecessary sacrifices, the money to buy a horse, you can ask me again when the time comes." ”
"No money!"
Lu Zhu said angrily: "It's just five thousand war horses, it's not worth a few dollars, but the transportation is more troublesome, and it takes a lot of time." ”
Yang Zhao doesn't care about this.
As long as it can be delivered.
Even if you go to fight Yuan Shao, you won't need heavy cavalry for the time being.
If you can use it in advance, of course, it will be the best.
After the heavy cavalry was distributed, Yang Zhao left the elk family, but on the way back, he was thinking that the cavalry should be split.
The current cavalry is in charge of Tian Yuhe and Zhao.
"Light cavalry Tian Yu, heavy cavalry leads."
"If you can recruit Zhao Yun back and reload the cavalry, you should bring it to Zhao Yun."
When Yang Zhao thought of Zhao Yun, he was helpless in his heart, from the beginning of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, he thought about how to dig the foot of the wall, and until now, he didn't have time and opportunity to dig.
is mainly Zhao Yun and him, except for Gongsun Zhan, there is no other intersection.
The others are not in Youzhou, and Zhao Yun doesn't know if he is still by Gongsun Zhan's side, and it is not good to dig the foot of the wall, so it has been dragged on until now.
"If you have a chance in the future, you have to make a special trip to Zhending."
Yang Zhao muttered in his heart.
The current development and arrangement are almost unfolded, and there is no need to worry about it.
Cao Cao, Liu Biao and others are now very peaceful.
The other princes can't set off the storm.
Yangzhou has probably been pacified, with Sun Quan as a hostage, Sun Ce has to weigh the consequences no matter what he does.
The internal affairs of Qingzhou and Xuzhou have also been handled similarly, weapons continue to be manufactured, and everything is on the right track, but it is still far from the road to pacifying the world.
"Lord, the latest military information."
As soon as he returned to the government office, he saw Yang Feng coming to look for him and said, "Gongsun Bogui of Youzhou, is ready to move troops against Jizhou." ”
"Sure enough!"
Yang Zhao finished reading the latest news and said, "We just came back from fighting Yuan Shu, and we will soon fight Yuan Shao again." ”
Yang Feng asked curiously: "Gongsun Bogui will ask the lord to make a move and attack Yuan Shao with him?" ”
"It's very likely!"
Yang Zhao analyzed: "First of all, Yuan Shao and I are enemies, and secondly, I am the junior brother of Gongsun Bogui, and finally, in fact, I am also waiting for this opportunity, I want to seize Jizhou, it is inconvenient for me to kill Yuan Shao, but there will be no problem in taking Jizhou." ”
Yang Feng was silent for a moment and said, "I'm going to prepare for the war!" ”
After following Yang Zhao for so long, he also had some understanding of the situation.
Qingzhou is next to Jizhou, Yang Zhao will not allow others to enter Jizhou completely, the part of Jizhou that is close to Qingzhou can only be controlled in his own hands.
In addition, he will fight with Gongsun Chan sooner or later.
The future battles may be even more exciting.
After sending Yang Feng away, Yang Zhao gathered everyone together to discuss the matter of fighting Yuan Shao again.
Leave Yuan Shao to Gongsun Zan to kill.
He grabbed the basin, finished fighting Jizhou, and could also enter the state by the way, everything was planned.
——
Gongsun Zhan is a soldier of Yishui, and the sword guides Jizhou.
"My lord, everything is ready."
Guan Jing came back and said: "The grain and grass of our army are all ready, and Fan Fanghe and Shan Jing went north to resist Wuhuan and prevent Wuhuan from suddenly attacking at this time." ”
"Good!"
Gongsun Zhan's face was solemn and said, "Those weapons ......"
Guan Jing shook his head and said, "There is still no result." ”
They don't know the principle, even if they have a weapon in their hands and disassemble it dozens of times, they don't know how to imitate it.
Charcoal, sulfur and other raw materials, they are clear.
But I only know the raw materials, I don't know how to match them, and I don't understand why they match them this way, they will become explosives, and I will be at a loss in the face of those things.
"No matter!"
Gongsun Zan said sharply: "Our soldiers, in the past few years, have been fighting against Wuhuan and Xianbei, and the killing spirit has been trained, Yuan Shaogang has experienced a big defeat, and was beaten by my junior brother to sue for peace, whether it is the strength or morale, it is far inferior to us." ”
"That's right!"
Guan Jing agreed with this, and said, "But my lord, do you want to contact the general?" ”
They are regarded as people who stand on Yang Zhao's side, and they agree with the position of general.
The son of heaven in Linzi, they also agree, even if they go to Linzi, they are willing to call Your Majesty.
Hearing this, Gongsun Chan fell into deep thought.
