"Now divide the tasks!" Zhang Zhao said with a dry cough.
He brought over Fan Quan, Fan Shun, Bai Congxin, Yan Jin, Qiongre Duojin, and Ma Yaozi! Just where Aluo Dudu painted the mud city, Zhang Zhao began to assign tasks!
He marked the location of Yangma City and said, "Bai Congxin, take twenty people and show me the biggest exit of Yangma City.
Tell the merchants inside that I am here to seek wealth from King Zhongyun and it has nothing to do with them. Don't cause trouble. Once King Zhongyun's treasure house is opened, half of their belongings will be sold at half price! "
Bai Congxin nodded. As a horse bandit who blocked roads and robbed people, the group he dealt with the most were merchants on the Silk Road. Therefore, he was very familiar with the style of these people and knew how to scare them.
He glanced at Zhang Zhao with admiration, "Er Langjun's trick is very useful! Traveling thousands of miles away is just for money. Although the gold, jewels and jade in King Zhongyun's treasury are ours, the food, meat, wine, cloth, etc. are not convenient to carry." There are quite a few.
Not only do we not rob them, but we also share a piece of their pie. These businessmen will definitely sit back and watch, or even help secretly. "
"Ma Yaozi, look at this!" Zhang Zhao pointed to the Zhongyun people's settlement area south of Yangma City.
"Most of the warriors living here are Zhongyun people. I will divide you into ten people. You don't have to fight. Bring tung oil, dry firewood and fire sickles, and let me light a few fucking places!
Remember not to click too concentratedly, but to separate them so that these warriors can only focus on putting out the fire and have no time to rescue the king's tent! "
The tung oil refining technology in the Tang Dynasty was relatively mature. Tung oil ignites immediately when exposed to fire and is a very good fire starter.
Most of the Zhongyun warriors had a little money in their families. According to the Aluoduo tribesmen, basically every family had a house with a wooden structure, unlike other poor people who only had houses made of stones and mud branches, which were very easy to light.
However, this plan is somewhat expensive. At this time, tung oil was mostly produced in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and southern Shaanxi.
But Yunnan is controlled by Yang Qianzhen's Dayi Ning Kingdom, Guizhou is still under the control of the Zangzhou barbarians, Sichuan has been controlled by Meng Zhixiang and is blocking Jiange in pursuit of independence, and the population of southern Shaanxi is declining, so tung oil is quite precious in Hexi.
Ma Yaozi originally didn't want to take this mission. He wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy, but when he saw Zhang Zhao even taking out the tung oil, he understood that Zhang Erlang had invested a lot of money, so he didn't make a fuss.
Zhang Zhao patted Ma Yaozi on the shoulder, "Don't underestimate just setting fire, but this matter is very important. Warrior Zhongyun can come and intercept us if the fire can't burn up. Then we can't break King Zhongyun's turtle shell, so Only if you go will I feel relieved!"
This was partly to irritate Ma Yaozi, but partly to tell the truth, because although Ma Yaozi likes to do things in life, he is actually very cunning, the kind of cunning of a rogue.
If you ask him to negotiate with the merchants of Yangma City, there will definitely be problems, but if you ask him to set fire like a local gangster, it will definitely be accomplished!
Hearing Zhang Zhao say that setting fires was important, Ma Yaozi's face relaxed and even glowed. He was a little proud and nodded pretending to feel a heavy responsibility.
"Don't worry, Mr. Erlang, Ma Yaozi will definitely take care of things for you!"
"The rest of the people, Yan Jin and I will lead thirty people each, and go directly to the Mushan fence to rush outside King Zhongyun's tent. You, Shishiro, follow me and bring all the gunpowder. Yan Jin will lead the people to pretend to attack fiercely." Right door, let’s blow up his left door!”
Cao Shishi and Cao Yanming also nodded, but he was still a little reluctant to part with it. His hands were worn out these days, and he had only prepared dozens of kilograms of gunpowder. Now Zhang Zhao would use them all at once. Many of them were prepared. Bi, he hasn’t figured it out yet!
"Don't be reluctant, wait until Khotan, I will build a big room for you, just for you to play with gunpowder!"
Zhang Zhao really valued Cao Shishi. Although he had prepared gunpowder, it was only for playing with flintlocks abroad. Cosprey took the emperor's old guard.
He has no interest at all in the tedious gunpowder ratio and research, and his identity does not support him spending a lot of energy on this. Now that he has Cao Yanming, he only needs to open his mouth and someone will break his leg. good!
"Zhong Weng! Cousin!" I will leave the remaining twenty people to you two. No matter what, we must guard our horses and camels. If we succeed, we can use them to store gold, jewelry, and jade. If there is trouble, It would be nice to retreat!
A retreat must be arranged, and it can only be arranged for Zhang Zhong and Yin Yaozi.
Although one of these two people is stupid, they are loyal enough!
One person's brain is a bit slow, but his force value is sufficient and he is calm. He is also Zhang Zhao's cousin. As long as it is a task assigned by Zhang Zhao, he will definitely complete it without compromise.
"Everyone, please remember me and convey the order to everyone. You are not allowed to act privately, you are not allowed to kill indiscriminately, you are not allowed to rob, and you are not allowed to rob or commit adultery!
Just leave as soon as you get it. All property will be distributed according to merit. Those who obey my orders are my brothers and sisters! Anyone who dares to mess around will have his head chopped off personally! "
. . . .
In the early morning, the wooden gates of the Sheep and Horse City outside Goni City slowly opened. The merchants huddled inside the city also walked out of the city to wash and feed their livestock in the Ruoqiang River outside. Some caravans who were preparing to leave early in the morning had already begun to prepare and replenish their luggage. Fresh water.
Vendors selling cakes and salted milk have already started selling in this place that is full of the smell of livestock manure. Occasionally, you can see a few men sleeping with horses and camels rubbing their sleepy eyes and getting up.
Being a businessman is not a nice word. You come out to make money and save as much as you can. Many people don't live in a hotel at all. They basically live with livestock. They don't have to spend money to stay warm. Smelly or dirty things are not considered at all.
Within a few minutes, the door between Yangma City and the inner city gradually opened, signaling that the transaction was about to begin.
The residents of Juni City want to buy something from outside merchants, and some of their blankets and other handicrafts are waiting to be sold. Some of them hope to find some work in Yangma City.
The clear sound of camel bells rang in the distance. This was the residents of the oasis around Muni City who had also come to trade. However, it was only a short distance away. It would take at least three poles to reach the distant place.
Several girls wearing white linen, a local specialty, were washing clothes by the Ruoqiang River. The cold river water turned their hands red from the cold, but from a distance, the contrast between the red hands and the white clothes was actually very beautiful.
At this time, the Zhongyun people (ancient Loulan people) belonged to a branch of the Indo-European people. Those who are familiar with it will know that such an ethnic group can easily produce beauties!
At this time, those graceful beauties by the river made the merchants in Yangma City feel itchy in their hearts.
A slightly fat merchant weighed the small bag of salt in his hand, thinking that it might not be enough, and added a wooden comb.
Many women here are willing to accept all comers. Those who are good-looking will show off their bodies. For those like Fat Hongshang, they can only spend a little money.
And this is not that Zhongyun women are shameless. In fact, this is the habit of most ethnic groups, including Qingtang Plateau.
In these places, people are far apart from each other, communication is not easy, and the population is even smaller. If you don't want the entire tribe to become an inbred tribe of fools in a few decades, you should be more liberal in some aspects. necessary.
Even in many places, there is a custom of treating guests with wives and daughters. It has nothing to do with morality, let alone romance, it is just for survival!
The fat merchant, who had spent a lot of money, fell in love with a beauty with a big butt. At this time, the woman was washing her long hair with her back to her. Her peach-like shape and strong long legs must be very powerful!
And it looks like she's just missing a comb that will do the trick!
. . . .
"Ah! Ah!!" The woman washing herself by the river suddenly screamed like a marmot.
But he was not frightened by the fat merchant next to him, but because across the river, almost instantly, a group of cavalry suddenly appeared beside the quietly flowing Ruoqiang River.
Holding a big flag that the woman had never seen before, they rushed across the river almost instantly. The few samurai guarding the small wooden bridge didn't even have time to pull out their swords, and were knocked directly into the river!
The scene suddenly became chaotic!
