What Wang Shumao said almost didn't explain anything, but it was also very ambiguous.
After hearing this, Guo Chong understood the key point. As long as the war continues, his money will gurgling like source water.
You don’t use much, but you want a lot. This is another kind of nouveau riche look.
At this moment, a servant came in and said hurriedly.
"Master, it's not good, the general broke in with his men."
Guo Chong was startled, pushed his servant away, and rushed out.
As soon as he arrived in the courtyard, he saw a burly general leading a group of soldiers walking toward him menacingly.
"General, why did you break into my mansion without any reason?"
Li Lu was not having a good time during this period, and he felt extremely depressed.
The young master refused to come to power, and he was basically marginalized. Of course, this was what he asked for. After all, with his power, it was impossible for the king who had just come to power to do anything to him.
However, Mrs. Yinglie's opinion of herself is getting bigger and bigger.
A woman's benevolence, a woman's perspective, the situation in the court as seen through the eyes of the heroic lady is so superficial.
She couldn't see the undercurrent in the court, couldn't see the strange situation in the whole world, she only saw her grandson who was flattering her all day long. If this continued, Shangguo would be destroyed sooner or later.
I don’t know why, but Gongzi Guan was very close to me in the past, but recently, his whole person has changed.
He withdrew from the opportunity to compete for the throne of the king for no reason, and also alienated himself, making himself confused.
Because of the instability of the situation, Li Lu was immediately idle at home.
It was because there was going to be a war that he was invited out.
There are many generals in Shangguo, but there are really few who can stand alone.
When he knew that he was going to attack Xia Kingdom, Li Lu was all excited. He was joking, no one could see it, how could he not see it?
Liao Guo's fighting power is not strong, and the powerful family has serious constraints, so it will hardly pose any big threat to Shang Guo.
But the Xia Kingdom is different. It has a vast territory and strong fighting power. If this is the case, he is not afraid. The key is that the evildoer Wu An has appeared.
Don't look at Mr. Wu An in front of him. He doesn't have anything proud or unruly, but this person is very dangerous.
Whether it is personal martial arts or leading troops to fight, Gu is the master.
After all, records cannot lie, and there are no empty warriors under the reputation. One or two battles can be said to be luck, so the decisive battle can never be luck.
Lord Wu An destroyed more than one country. How could Li Lu sleep peacefully for such a person?
He was already in a bad mood, but when he heard that Lian Angxiong had gone to the Xia Kingdom and was ordered to be safe by Lord Wu'an, Li Lu felt even more shocked.
After careful inquiry and investigation, we found out that someone went to recall Lian Angxiong, but because this person was from Guo Chong, he slandered Lian Angxiong in front of the king.
Li Lu didn't think Lian Angxiong was higher than him, but even if he was lower than him, his strength was still considerable.
Such a good general not only failed to help their country, but also helped the enemy country. This made Li Lu very angry.
And many people have noticed that the Sword Master has not come out to meet people for a long time. Others don't know it, but Li Lu knows it better than anyone else.
Mrs. Yinglie forcibly took away a thousand elite swordsmen and seventy-two swordsmen from her hands, and led the fishermen to Liaodong to assassinate Wu Anjun.
Judging from the current situation, the odds are stacked against the odds. Thinking of the thousands of elites he has personally trained, Li Lu feels a little sick.
These thousand elite soldiers must first be selected from veterans of hundreds of battles. They are also elite veterans of hundreds of battles. Each of them is equipped with the most sophisticated armor and weapons.
It can be said that this army of a thousand people can play a certain role when the two armies are in a stalemate.
But when it was thrown into Liaodong, it was like a mud cow thrown into the sea. There was no reaction at all, not even a bubble was seen.
Before Guo Chong could say anything, Li Lu drew his sword and put it on Guo Chong's neck.
Guo Chong
He was immediately confused, but he was not easy to fool, so he patted his neck carefully.
"Come on, chop me on the neck. Come on, kill Prime Minister Shangguo. If I die, you won't be able to survive."
Although the upper class has privileges, many of them come from the top down.
That is to say, there are some privileges in the eyes of ordinary people, but within the same level of circles, you still have to abide by the rules of the game.
No matter how awesome Li Lu is, if he kills Guo Chong at this time, he can't escape the fate of beheading.
You, Li Lu, are very good at fighting, but you ignored the situation and killed the prime minister directly. Then will you kill other ministers tomorrow, and will you kill the king directly the day after tomorrow?
Such people will fight again and turn the tide. As long as there is no moment to destroy the country and step on the bottom line, they will definitely be beheaded.
Seeing Guo Chong's triumphant appearance, Li Lu immediately became angry and punched him twice.
Guo Chong almost suffered a heart attack.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are very clever. In the past, a cart of copper and iron only cost one gold, but now you need hardware to buy it."
"It is rumored that in some remote places, a cart of copper and iron has been sold for twenty gold a cart. You just want to watch Shang Guo lose the battle."
Guo Chong bared his teeth and clutched his chest, his eyes filled with resentment.
"Humph, I don't know what the general said. It was done by other scholar-officials and has nothing to do with me!"
"You're a rat's tail juice!"
Li Lu instantly lost interest when he saw Guo Chong's appearance.
"If the villain succeeds, sooner or later, I will kill you!!! You ate such a big piece of meat, and you really thought that a powerful family could spare you."
After saying that, Li Lu flicked his sleeves and led the soldiers away angrily.
"Pooh!"
After spitting, Guo Chong looked at the leaving Li Lu with a sinister look on his face.
I didn't deal with this old boy before, but now that I'm having such a quarrel, the relationship is finally settled.
Since he wants to kill himself, okay, okay, okay, but if it doesn't work, then he will die. Guo Chong is really not afraid of Li Lu now.
After Li Lu left, Wang Shushu came out and joked that Li Lu hated Xia Guo to death now. He was a merchant of Xia Guo. If he didn't dare to kill Guo Chong, he would certainly dare to kill himself.
If you just go out, you will definitely die.
"Prime Minister, this person Li Lu..."
"snort."
Guo Chong's face was filled with gloom and he said bitterly.
"Sooner or later, I will kill Li Lu!"
Wang Shumao frowned.
Guo Chong was displeased.
"What, you can kill him if you don't believe the truth?"
Wang Shusui shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't believe it, it's that I can't."
"Why?"
"He has a close relationship with the young master."
"Hahahahaha, Master Guan has lost his power, what's the use of it? You may not know it, but Mrs. Yinglie has already criticized Li Lu. He is just a martial artist and cannot be used for much purpose."
Wang Shumao's eyes lit up. This information is good and must be reported to the king.
But he was also very unhappy in his heart. What does a martial artist mean? Strictly speaking, he is just a martial artist, and Lord Wu An is also a martial artist.
Who are you looking down on?
"Don't stop our plan. Go ahead and raise the price. I want to see how Li Lu responds. Hmm, the truth is controlled by other means. Who can find the evidence of the truth?"
Guo Chong flicked his sleeves and left.
A smile appeared on Wang Shumao's lips.
I just like to see the enemy in chaos inside, the more chaotic the better.
In Fuyan's market, a merchant started shouting after finally transporting more than a dozen carts of copper and iron.
Although Guo Chong can control some passes, but not all, some scattered copper and iron can still be transported in.
Don't think that there is very little copper and iron in one cart. This cart is a baggage cart and needs two or three oxen to pull it. The load is still very large.
A young man said arrogantly, "This is a batch of goods that was recently shipped. The one with the highest price will get it."
In an instant, more than a dozen merchants rushed over.
"Brother, brother, the price is negotiable. Can we discuss it privately?"
Before the young man selling copper and iron could speak, another merchant shouted directly.
"How about I pay twenty gold for a car?"
"I have thirty gold."
"I have fifty gold."
"I have sixty gold."
"you you you......."
"I'm 62...."
"This is too high."
"70, 80, 90, 100..."
Whenever there is cheap copper and iron, it is basically purchased by the army. As copper and iron become more and more scarce, a lot of copper and iron are shipped directly to the crude auction model.
The prices are getting more and more exaggerated.
The quartermaster who was nearby looked at the fierce bidding scene, his face was full of toothache, it was too expensive.
A few days of work.
Yang Qian's life was very good. Although he was still busy every day, it was still fulfilling.
As the messages came one after another, the border troops also began to move. Yang Gan mobilized his troops and gathered a large number of generals. The troops guarding the border were also transferred to Yanggu Pass one after another.
The situation became increasingly tense. The secret agents stationed in Liao State also sent intelligence one after another, and Liao State also began to prepare for the attack.
Gui Xianwan sat at the table and poured tea for Yang Gan. Yang Gan took the tea and drank it all in one gulp.
Whether it's Kung Fu tea or tea tasting, you just have to come here once in a while. Normally, if someone doesn't help pour tea and water, Yang Qian would rather drink a big bowl of tea, which is refreshing.
Xiao Yu walked in and glanced at Gui Xianwan who was expressionless.
If Gui Xianwan had a cold expression before, now her face is indifferent and she also looks a little angry.
"Your Majesty, secret security has been sent from Liao and Shang. The army has been mobilized frequently, and food and fodder are well prepared. However, it's just..."
"Just what?"
Yang Gan didn't raise his head, reviewing the official documents, and sometimes writing his own opinions on how to deal with them.
"Shangguo's army lacked copper and iron, so it could only be used for modest purposes, but Liaoguo was not particularly affected."
Yang Qian paused his pen and started writing furiously again.
"In the Liao Kingdom, the scholar-bureaucrats we have friends with in the Tianshou Division do not have high positions and cannot effectively influence the market. At most, they can only make more money. If the move is big, the powerful and aristocratic families in the Liao Kingdom are not stupid. "
"How is the integration of the troops recruited by Goguryeo now?"
