Fan Chong opened his mouth and said, "Although the Xiongnu have experienced a series of defeats, but they have not broken their muscles and bones, the general needs to take precautions as soon as possible, and at the latest next autumn, the Xiongnu will attack Yanmen and Taiyuan again."

The people who were still passionate were suddenly poured a basin of cold water, this big victory is that the Hun cavalry does not know the reality of Yanmen County, rashly marched, next time I want to defeat the Hun army, I am afraid it will not be so easy.

Xu Huang said disappreciably, "The Huns are just like this, I'm afraid he will do something."

Wang Gang glared at him, now Wang Gang is the general of Zhenbei, which is different from when he was a lieutenant in the past, Xu Huang was so frightened that he shrank his neck and showed a flattering smile.

"The Huns integrated the interior, and their strength increased greatly, and Yu Fuluo Liu Bao Hu Chuquan was not a general, relying on the strength of Yanmen County alone, it was still too reluctant to deal with the entire Huns. The general still took this opportunity to take full control of the state and gather all the forces of the state to fight against the Xiongnu" Zhang Liao's words pointed out the crux of the problem, relying on Yanmen County alone to resist the Xiongnu, obviously unrealistic.

"Wen Yuan is right, since the imperial court has appointed me as the pastor of the state, I naturally want to protect the state, but I am not very clear about the situation in Taiyuan."

"I know a little bit about the situation in the state" Zhang Lin arched his hand towards Wang Gang, he had no military position and was a little restrained.

"Brother Zhang, please will"

"The power of Taiyuan County is complicated, and the state is not like other states, where the family is distributed in various states and counties, but all of them are concentrated in Taiyuan County, which is also related to the continuous war in the state. Now there are four small families in Taiyuan County, and the four major families are the Wang family, the Zhang family, and the Lin family and the Xu family in Jinyang. Needless to say, the Wang family in Taiyuan is one of the few in the entire Han Dynasty, and its protégés are all over the world. Zhang Lin paused and continued.

"As for the Zhang family, it is also one of the best families in Taiyuan, Taiyuan County Shou Zhang Yi, and..." Zhang Lin said, glanced at Wang Gang, and then whispered: "I heard that Luoyang Ling Zhang Qian is also from the Zhang family, but he is not very harmonious with the Zhang family."

Wang Gang was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that Zhang Qian was a member of the Zhang family, so why had he never heard Mr. mention it. As for Zhang Yi, the Taishou of Taiyuan County, he has also seen an old man with a kind face.

Then there is the Lin family, the Lin family originally started in business, and gained a lot of wealth by selling horses from Xihe County to the Central Plains. Later, the Lin family's Lin Shi became the Taishou of Xihe County, the Lin family became a family in Taiyuan through decades of operation, the Xu family is slightly inferior to the first three, the Xu family had internal strife in the early years, and some of the Xu family's people defected to the Xu family in Yunzhong County, although the strength is not as good as before, but it is still not to be underestimated"

Zhang Lin deeply understands this, because his selling of things touched the interests of the Xu family, provoked the revenge of the Xu family, and made him unable to gain a foothold in Taiyuan County.

"What about the four little families," Wang Gang asked curiously.

"The four small families are the Deng family in Qi County, the Meng family in Yangyi, the Zhou family in Yu County, and the Yang family in Fenyang"

"What do these four small families do?" asked Fan Chong.

"Qi County is located in the north, adjacent to Hedong County, located in the plain, the land is fertile, Fen water, astronomical water converge here, land irrigation is very convenient, is the granary of Taiyuan County. More than half of the grain in the entire Taiyuan County comes from Qi County. The Deng family also made a fortune from the grain trade, and it can be said that the Deng family has mastered the grain prices of the entire state, and in recent years, wars have occurred frequently, and grain prices have remained high, and the Deng family has made a lot of money from it."

"What a black-hearted businessman," Wang Gang couldn't help but mock.

"If you want to talk about black hearts, count the Meng family in Yangyi, Yangyi is located in the southeast of Taiyuan County, with dense mountains and forests. It is very suitable for planting cotton and linen, and most of the people in the city grow mulberry and silkworms. The Meng family bought it from the people and spun it into cloth. An absolute monopoly was formed in the whole state, and last year Miss Zhang went to Taiyuan to open a cloth shop, but was suppressed by the Meng family everywhere, and had to withdraw from Taiyuan."

When Zhang Lin said this, he looked up at Wang Gang's dark face, and said boldly. "Miss Zhang's cloth shop is at a fair price. The quality is good, and it is deeply loved by the people, and the people of the entire Yanmen County may not know who the county guard is, but they feel that no one knows who Miss Zhang is. Because of this, the entire Yanmen County also lost the Meng family's cloth shop. The two cloth shops are already on the same page."

"What about the other two," Wang Gang said with anger in his endurance.

Yu County is located in the northeast corner of Taiyuan County, is the east gate of Taiyuan County, this official road is the most smooth, Jing Cheng Pass is here, Jing Cheng Pass was originally belonged to Shangdang County. A few years ago, the Zhou family spent a lot of money to transfer the Zhou family of Zhou Hu to Jingcheng Pass, and became the guard of Jingcheng Pass, commanding two thousand soldiers, stationed in Jingcheng Pass. If you want to avoid being checked, you can only pay a lot of tolls, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you will make money every day."

At this moment, Huang Zhong suddenly asked.

"That Zhou Hu is like a tiger, with a black mole next to his nose and a pinch of black hair on it."

"Has General Huang seen him, this person is Zhou Hu, nicknamed a handful of hair"

"Not only have I seen it, the last time I passed through Jingcheng Pass, I had to pass through the money, and I was shot away by General Wu Zhao, if it wasn't for the force of General Wu Zhao and the three thousand soldiers led by him, I'm afraid it would not be so easy to think about crossing Jingcheng Pass."

Listening to the two of them talk about the matter of Jing Cheng Pass, Wang Gang was also a little annoyed, he knew that he should go directly to snatch Jing Cheng Pass, he had a holy purpose in his hands, and he was afraid that he Zhou Hu would dare to resist and disobey the order.

"I'll clean him up when I have a chance" Wang Gang snorted coldly and looked at Zhang Lin.

"Fenyang County is the closest to Yanmen County, located in the northwest corner of Taiyuan County, and west of Wuyuan County and Yunzhong County. Surrounded by mountains here, arable farmland is scarce, the nearest county seat is Wuyang County, about two hundred miles of mountain roads, the rest is Yangqu County of Taiyuan County and Xiangping County of Yunzhong County, all of which are at least four or five hundred miles, the land is vast and sparsely populated. However, Fenyang County is rich in mineral resources, with a large number of iron ore, copper ore, and gold mines. Most of these minerals are in the hands of the Yang family, which also makes the Yang family the richest of the four small merchants. It is said that there is still a private army of more than 5,000 people in his hand, and even Zhang Yi, the county guard of Taiyuan, has no way to take him."

When Wang Gang heard this, his brows tightened. The complexity of Taiyuan County exceeded his imagination, no wonder Ding Yuan failed to settle these families in the two years of merging the state.

"Is there a pass in Fenyang County?"

Zhang Lin thought for a while and said.

"The passes in Fenyang County are relatively small, and they were built at the Yang family's own expense."

After Zhang Lin finished speaking, Wang Gang was disappointed for a while. But I heard Zhang Lin suddenly speak again.

"I heard that in the southwest corner of Beishan, there is a place called the river meander, the clear water turns from here and flows north into the Yellow River, so it is named, although this place belongs to Wuyuan County, but it is more than 400 miles away from Wudu County of Wuyuan County, and because the road is difficult to travel, it is almost forgotten by Wudu County, there is an ancient checkpoint on the edge of the river meander, called Qufu Pass. There is a sheep intestine trail under Qufu Pass that leads to Fenyang County. ”
