"See the Regent!"

Guo Yuanzhen saluted Li Jing!

"Yuan Zhen, how do you know that Tubo still has a backhand and is designing an ambush for our army?"

Li Jing asked.

He didn't find anything abnormal, why Guo Yuanzhen chatted with him for a few words, and knew that there would be ambushes in Tubo, and asked him for a soldier and horse to deal with the Tubo ambushes.

However, Guo Yuanzhen really guessed correctly, Li Jing felt that it would definitely not be so simple, there must be details in it that he didn't find!

"Does the Lord Regent remember the people who sued me back then?"

Guo Yuanzhen asked.

"Yes! Is there any connection between the two? ”

Li Jing wondered, why didn't he see anything wrong?

"Although the minister privately minted coins, but not everyone can know, that is what I did in Shudi, after coming to Diezhou, the minister has not privately minted a copper plate, how did the people of Diezhou know about it."

"The minister thinks about it, and only the fine work of Tubo will be interested in knowing the details of the minister, and the fine work may think that no matter where the minister is, he can't change the problem of minting private money."

"Moreover, the other party not only knows the ministers well, but also observes the regent's actions......"

Guo Yuanzhen reasoned his own conjecture and reasoning, as well as his understanding of the Qinling Tomb, and summed up the idea that Tubo wanted to lure the enemy into the depths and then completely annihilate the Tang army.

Even if there is no sand table in Qinling and it is impossible to deduce actions, people must have been sent to investigate, how to arrange troops, how to lure the enemy into depth, and think clearly about Qinling.

It's just that on Qinling miscalculated this time, he overestimated the ability of his younger brother Bo Ronzan Blade and Zanpo, and ignored the overall level of the Tang army.

If Qinling had known earlier, the ending would have been another matter!

Li Jing nodded again and again after hearing this.

At this moment, a guard came over and saluted with a fist: "Regent, Ashina, the deceased Khan of Xingxi, has come to support him." ”

"Ashina Xian!"

"Yes!"

"Bring him to the king!"

Li Jing met with Ashina Xian.

"Wechen has seen the regent, and he was ordered to go north to support!"

Ashina offered a salute.

Ashina Xian received the edict to pardon him, grateful, and received an order to let him lead the troops to support, Ashina Xian did not dare to stay longer, all the way over the mountains and mountains, only to rush here to meet Li Jing!

It was just in time, and I saw the soldiers of the Tang Army cleaning the battlefield and disposing of the corpses, the flags that could be seen everywhere were crooked, there were broken weapons all over the ground, and there was a strong smell of blood in the air!

Ashina Xian was brought to Li Jing and saluted with crossed hands: "I've seen His Royal Highness the Regent!"

"Ashina Xian, it's been hard all the way, I didn't expect you to come back so soon."

Li Jing said with a smile.

"These are all things that a minister should do!"

Ashina said respectfully.

"In order to effectively fight against Tibet and pacify the Western Turks, this king has asked Your Majesty to canonize you as the general of the Right Xiao Cavalry, the protector of Kunling, the Khan of the Rising Past, and the ruler of Wulu Land!"

Li Jing announced the appointment of Ashinaxian, and if he wants to govern the Western Regions well, he cannot do without the assistance of the Turkic royal family Ashina family, which has a high influence in the grassland and the Western Regions.

"Thank you, Lord Regent, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ashina Xian immediately saluted and said that he would definitely protect the Western Regions for the Tang Dynasty, and the Turks would be loyal to the Tang Dynasty for generations!

"How many soldiers, horses, grain and grass did you bring this time?"

Li Jing asked.

"Back to the regent, Wechen brought 30,000 soldiers and horses, 100,000 catties of white flour and lard, I don't know if it's enough, if it's not enough, Wechen will go and transfer some food!"

Ashina Xian said.

"Okay, if nothing else, it will be enough to eat enough to defeat Tubo, Ashina Xian needs you now in the Western Turks, you set off immediately, pacify the Western Turks, and cooperate with our army to attack Tubo."

Li Jing said.

"Obey orders!"

Ashina bowed and retreated, and set off directly back to the Western Turks.

After resting here for a day, Li Jing ordered the whole army to march to Tuyuhun's hometown!

After a few days of marching, the Tang army finally entered the territory of Tuyuhun, what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a vast grassland, under the sky, a thousand miles of blue, there were hills on all sides, the flat land was green, and the hills were also green.

The sheep went up the hill and down again, and everywhere they walked it was like embroidering a large white flower on the boundless green carpet.

Not far away, there are several herdsmen's tents, and a lot of wool has been piled up near the tents.

In this era, the wool textile technology was backward, and there were few wool textiles, and the herdsmen used wool to make some large items such as blankets and wool felt.

The remaining wool will be discarded, and when it has accumulated to a certain extent, they will choose to burn the useless wool, anyway, every year the sheep will shed their hair, and the wool will become useless waste.

Most of the clothing worn by the herdsmen is made of leather, and the herdsmen will hunt the fur of other animals and make leather clothes to wear on their bodies, which can also play a role in keeping warm.

"Someone!"

"What does Your Highness command?"

The guard asked.

"Go and fetch me the leader of the herdsmen here!"

Li Jing said.

"Yes!"

The guards took the order and left, and soon found the herdsmen's leader, and brought the herdsmen's leader to Li Jing.

"A noble man from the Tang Dynasty, I am the leader of this ethnic group, Lun Shen Angkun, welcome to the prairie!"

"I want all of your wool, how about exchanging a copper coin for a catty?"

Li Jing pointed to the mountains of wool piled up not far away and said his thoughts.

"What?"

Lun Shen Angkun was shocked!

He has lived for such a long time, he has never heard such surprising words, and there are people who are willing to take money to buy these useless wool, I am afraid that he is not a fool!

It is important to know that the nomadic people's textile level is limited, and many areas still maintain the most primitive textile technology, although some people have used wool to spin clothes.

But because of technical problems, there is no way to deal with the wool problem, and the clothes made are not liked by the herdsmen, and it is not very comfortable to wear, because the wool is not handled well, and there is a smell of stocks.

Therefore, the herders do not use wool to weave clothes, but only make blankets and the like.

In the eyes of herdsmen, excess wool is useless waste, and now there are people who are willing to pay money to buy it, either mad or stupid.

"Why, if you're too little, I can give you two copper coins, what do you think?"

Li Jing thought that the other party thought that the money was too little, so he added an extra copper coin to the original price.

This is the highest price he can give, and it is also to prevent the situation of sitting on the ground and starting the price, anyway, these wool are left in their hands, and they are also abandoned and worthless rags, it is better to sell them to him and turn them into treasures.

When he processes the wool, turns it into wool thread, and weaves it into a sweater, he can increase the price by dozens or hundreds of times, and he will definitely be able to make a profit!
