Beishan Fort.
Fu Han General's Mansion. A large number of officials came and went, and everyone seemed to have endless things to do, coming and going in a hurry.
The guards responsible for the defense were all in high spirits, like cheetahs ready to attack, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.
rising period.
The entire force of Beishan Fort is on the rise, and at an extremely fast rate.
Hundreds of new mountain villages have been added, and the extra population has increased.
The population of the nine castles was redistributed, causing conflicts among the people.
Spring is about to begin, and there is a problem with farming.
Beishan Fort is expanding rapidly, and officials are also working intensively and quickly accumulating work experience.
The only thing that remains unchanged is high morale.
From civil servants to soldiers, they are all vigorous and high-spirited.
Inside the hall.
Wu Nian wore a spring war coat and sat at the main seat, drinking tea and talking to Liu Zhixing and Li Yong.
The faces of the three people were serious.
"It's not easy to handle. After I assassinated Tao Dayou, the Mongolian people became more and more strict on our iron ore, salt, and food. Everything else is easy to say. We can now be self-sufficient in food. We have snatched a lot of weapons, armor, etc. from the Meng Yuan people, and we have enough for now. But if people don’t have salt to eat, problems will arise.”
Wu Nian put down the tea cup and looked worried.
Of course he didn't know that this matter was suggested by Tao Dayou to Emperor Mengba. He thought it was the Meng Yuan people's revenge for his assassination.
Although this is normal.
Anyone with a brain knows that we need to control the enemy's food, iron ore, and salt.
But it's really uncomfortable.
"That's what the general said. In fact, we can find a way to solve the iron ore mine. We have mountains in Liaodong, and we also produce iron. We can send people who know it to explore. Maybe we can find some iron ore."
"But salt."
Liu Zhixing frowned and shook his head, sighing repeatedly.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
Even with his outstanding abilities, he can't make things come out.
This is something that is currently unsolvable. Unless Wu Nian becomes stronger, captures the county seat, and goes to the seaside.
With the sea, there is no need to worry about salt.
soon. Li Yong and Liu Zhixing said goodbye and left. They were very busy and had no time to chat with Wu Nian.
"Hey." Wu Nian sighed, held it in for a while, and held it in for a while. After the autumn harvest, there will be food on hand.
Then send troops again.
Wu Nian finished the cup of tea in his hand, stood up and planned to go back to Wu Mansion. At this moment, a soldier walked in from outside. He bent down and saluted: "General. Colonel Long is here, right outside the door."
"please come in."
Wu Nian said without thinking.
"Yes." The soldier responded, turned around and walked out. After a while, Long Qie strode in with his head held high and his chest held high.
"General." Long Qie bowed and saluted Wu Nian.
"They are all brothers, why are you so polite?" Wu Nian quickly stepped forward to help Long Qi up and complained.
"How's it going? Are you getting used to living in Zhang Guangbao? How is the military training going?" Wu Nian let go of Long Qie and asked with a smile.
"Anyway, no matter what the fort is, it's all in Liaodong. There's nothing to adapt to. The army's training is very good. The boys are holding their breath and practicing hard."
Long Qie replied with a smile.
"That's good." Wu Nian smiled and nodded, relieved. This force suddenly expanded to twenty thousand households, which was a big step.
He was really worried.
"I'm here this time. But it's not for this. General, please take a look." Long Qie took out the gift list from the Chu Kingdom's court and handed it to Wu Nian.
Wu Nian was surprised and reached out to take the gift list and read it.
"Is this someone doing your job, brother?" Wu Nian narrowed his eyes, but there was a smile in his eyes. Good guy.
The things on here are all priceless. No matter who did it, there was blood.
There is also a beautiful woman and three beautiful maids.
There are bed warmers.
I just don’t know if it’s Goguryeo, Meng Yuan, or Chu State?
Wu Nian knew and trusted Long Qie very well. This brother used to work with him to rob half of Zhang and the Liu Family Fist Gate, but all the money they got was converted into supplies and poured into the army. They should have spent almost all of it in these years.
It is impossible to spend so much money.
It can only be given by others.
Taken advantage of, really taken advantage of.
No matter who did it, they were stupid. How can we buy the friendship that we crawled out of the dead with money?
"It's Xiong Wuwo, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan of the Chu Kingdom. He also brought the imperial seal. I'm talking about it theoretically now. He's also a third-grade guerrilla general from the imperial court. He's much higher than you, general. But I still dislike it. I gave Xiong Wu less, so I asked him to add more money.”
Long Qie laughed.
He didn't know yet that Wu Nian was already the commander of Beishan, and he was a top-ranking third-rank officer in the guard station.
Wu Nian smiled and did not tell the matter.
"Yes. According to brother's ability, the third-grade official position is too low." Wu Nian said with a smile, and then he pinched his chin, with a strange look in his eyes.
Long Qie smiled, then clasped his fists seriously and said, "General. I have transported all these things."
Wu Nian was stunned for a moment, then understood. He stretched out his hand to signal Long Qie to sit down, and he also came to the main seat and sat down.
"Send them here for what purpose. Keep them for your own use. Especially the beauty and the three maids. They are all brought into the house. If you don't give me four nephews next year, I will settle the account with you."
Wu Nian rolled his eyes at Long Qie and said.
"Uh!!!" Long Qie looked shocked. He had no other thoughts. Anyway, he felt that if those priceless things were kept in his own hands, it would be better to give them to Wu Nian and use them as the treasury of the generals assisting the Han Dynasty.
As for beauties, Long Qie is not good at this one.
But since Wu Nian said so, Long Qie didn't say anything more.
"Wait later. The general will conquer more cities and create a business environment. I will sell these things and subsidize the military. It can be regarded as spending all the money wisely."
Long Qie secretly thought in his heart.
"But there is one thing. Brother, you have to help me." Wu Nian quickly stopped his smile and said seriously.
"General, just give me your orders," Long Qie said straightforwardly, clasping his fists.
"Now our Beishan Fort is short of salt. Xiong Wuwo and the others are very powerful, and they can win over their brothers at all costs. Just ask them to find a way to transport salt in."
"It's like killing a pig. Keep them bleeding."
"Don't be reserved. Just open your mouth and be greedy."
Wu Nian's tiger eyes were full of smiles, and even his voice was much lighter.
Long Qie was also happy and agreed: "Even if the general doesn't say anything, I will find a way to get them."
"You can't find such a good thing even with a lantern."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Wu Nian burst out laughing.
Free prostitution, not only free prostitution, but also continuous free prostitution.
happy.
Why.
so happy.
