Chapter 337: Turning the tables against the wind 11

In terms of materials, there is no need to worry, they are all light, generally bring enough materials for three to five days, and you need to purchase them on the spot, after all, they are all small teams, as long as you find a nearby town, county seat or prefecture, you can purchase enough materials.

It's really not good, and there can be several parties linkage - in the next maneuver, meet other teams, ask each other about supplies, and if it's not enough, the two sides will exchange positions, so that they will slowly exchange back to Ding'an Mansion, and the three princes over there will definitely have materials shipped from the mainland.

Of course, sometimes there is no need to exchange back to Ding'an Mansion, and the three princes will send caravans to various places to replenish their supplies.

On the one hand, these caravans were used to replenish these people, and on the other hand, they were indeed used to trade in the desert.

After all, although the third prince has a steady stream of materials and financial support from the mainland, it is naturally best if he can run some ways to make money.

And now, with the escort of private armed forces, there is no fear that the caravan will be robbed by the Hu people or the ringing horses, the risk of doing business is greatly reduced, and the profits have risen in a straight line, and this business is naturally done.

In addition, there are two functions to trade there, one is to really trade, and the other is to collect some information on the movements of the Hu people.

Because of the supplies, and then the placement of private forces in this way, no matter how large the area of Shazhou is, the roads that can be cleaned are not left behind, resulting in the fact that the reputation is now out, and caravans from all over the country go to the desert to do business, and they all pass through this side, and do not go to other places.

Of course, the main thing is that Shazhou is safe, and the risk in other places has risen.

However, it was said that when the Hu people went to Mozhou and Huangzhou, because there were also local Hu people in the two places, and now there are more outsiders, needless to say, the Hu people have become more and more unsafe, so many people, because they heard that Shazhou is safe, moved their families to Shazhou, resulting in the population of Shazhou gradually increasing.

Then there was the caravan, which slowly passed through Shazhou, making Shazhou more and more prosperous.

On the contrary, in the two prefectures of Mozhou and Huangzhou, there are now too many Hu people of all colors, and I don't know how many county towns and prefectures have been broken - mainly there are too many Hu people, Xiangma, etc., and the villages and towns are not enough for their scourge, so they can only besiege the county seat and the prefecture.

Seeing that the prefectures and counties in Mozhou and Huangzhou were in an emergency, the governors and the generals who guarded the customs began to ask the center for money and materials, saying that they wanted to recruit more soldiers to protect the county towns and prefectures in various places.

They are not afraid that the emperor will blame them, they also know that in the end, the emperor is cleaning up the old general's house, as well as those ministers who supported the three princes before, at this time, they are officials who are far away from the border pass and are free from the power struggle, because this matter requires money, the emperor will not blame it, even if he is angry, he will not dare to do anything to them at this time, and they are not wrong, the border pass is indeed tight.

Besides, don't do it at this time, when the emperor has a firm foothold, then don't dare to say that the Hu people are coming, and they can't stand it, and when the emperor has his hands free, don't cut yourself.

Or if the Hu people don't call at that time, they won't be able to find an excuse to ask for money and supplies.

So it's best to ask for money and materials at this time.

Sure enough, the fourth prince was in a very bad mood when he saw these twists and turns of asking for money and materials, because there was not much money in the treasury - mainly because the money in the treasury had not been too much, and then after he took the throne, in order to win over some of his own people, he allocated money to many places, and the money was even more insufficient.

However, now is the time for him to clean up people everywhere, and it is really not good to ignore these people, but he is not on the side of the king, is he? You can't hit everyone at all, and in the end no one supports you.

So in the end, as a last resort, in the barren treasury, I drew some more and sent some to the two states.

In the end, needless to say, all this money went to the officials and generals of the two states, and not a single cent was spent on military training.

As for the common people, they will be killed by the Hu people...... They don't bother to care, anyway, people are killed every month or even every day of the year, and they can't take care of it.

What are the Hu people afraid of when they break through the city, they won't occupy it anyway, they will just fish for something and leave, and wait for them to leave.

- I have to say that the three princes collected such attitudes from officials and generals in Mozhou and Huangzhou, and they almost lost their anger, but fortunately he came to the border to know these things, otherwise in Beijing, thousands of miles away, how can he know this.

If he succeeds in ascending to the throne, he must replace these people, and let these people stay at the border pass, which is more harmful than letting those who are mediocre but not greedy for money stay at the border pass, after all, people who are mediocre but not greedy for money can at least save him some money, unlike these people, who are not only mediocre, but also greedy, they are simply angry.

The third prince couldn't watch those people die tragically, so he could only arrange private armies as much as possible, expand his business to Mozhou and Huangzhou, and try his best to protect those people.

Not to mention that the forces on the side of the three princes are getting stronger and stronger, and the same is true for Linlang's side.

At the same time, the situation of the original family is getting worse and worse.

Soon, the four princes found a crime and seized the military power of Old Lady Zhang and his sons, but for the sake of their meritorious service, they did not dispose of them for the time being, and only let them stay at home - that is, I didn't kill you, you have to thank me.

At this time, Linlang secretly took them to the border.

Of course, before leaving, she asked Mrs. Zhang to read a book, saying that she wanted to go back to her hometown to retire.

After all, leave without saying a word, don't make the fourth prince feel strange.

The four princes agreed, anyway, the whole world is not the king's land, even if he returns to his hometown, if he wants to clean up their family in the future, it is not a matter of one sentence, can he still run to the edge of the sky.

However, just like the three princes, they sent people to monitor them.

What the four princes didn't know was that for these people who were watching, Linlang adopted the same plan as the third prince, pressing people to death, and then asking people to send a fake letter to report to the emperor every once in a while as requested by the emperor.

As for the people, they naturally got to the border.

When I saw the three princes, Mrs. Zhang and others, they were all a little embarrassed.

Although it is said that fighting for the world and each for his own master, it is actually nothing, but since he helped the four princes, don't be lucky, and expect the three princes to give him a good face.

I didn't expect the three princes to ignore their previous suspicions, seeing that they were coming, they were very enthusiastic, saying that he happened to have too many subordinates and not enough generals, and they came, and someone could help them lead the troops, but it helped them a lot.

Regardless of previous suspicions, can you be embarrassed to let Mrs. Zhang and others?

At that moment, the old lady Zhang couldn't help but thank him while being grateful to the old man's tears: "Your Highness's love, the old man dares to disobey his orders, but the old man has not been in charge of the border army for many years, and I don't know if I can help His Highness." ”
