Chapter 190 Continue to drive away tigers and swallow wolves

One million and two million kilograms of pepper, 350,000 kilograms of cinnamon, 200,000 kilograms of cloves, and 200,000 kilograms of cardamom are enough to make up for all Lantian's investment in Han Xiufen's Naval Group.

These goods are now in Guangzhou and operated by Lantian Business. It is estimated that they can be replaced with gold and silver in one and a half years.

These things are sold far better in the south than in the north.

The main reason why spices are popular all over the world is not because of their aroma, but because foods with spices are not prone to rot.

The north is cold for a long time, so the demand for spices is not as urgent as the south.

Therefore, these spices were placed in Guangzhou and were not transported back to Guanzhong.

With the help of the spy department, Liu Mingliang had many good things transported back from Guangzhou.

For example, 20,000 kilograms of golden sand, 1,200 ivory, 700 rhino horns, 1,000 kilograms of pearls, and 1,000 kilograms of gems are very likable.

The golden sand was handed over to the craftsman to melt and make it into Lantian gold coins, ivory, and rhino horns. Yun Zhao didn't like it at all. Therefore, at the craftsman's request, these two things were also handed over to the craftsman.

According to them, Lantian is not short of master craftsmen. As long as they have these materials, they will definitely be able to make some exquisite objects. At that time, the value of an ivory or rhinoceros horn will soar ten or a hundred times.

As for pearls and gems, the arrogant Qian Duoduo must send these things to Yun Mansion, and ask her to take them to the treasury to make a book after counting them.

Although everyone could think that this was inappropriate from Qian Duoduo's wolf-like eyes, Han Xiufen's money left Lantian and went to Europe was privately funded by Qian Duoduo. Therefore, when everyone saw that Yun Zhao refused to scold his wife, and they did not dare to provoke Qian Duoduo, they agreed.

Liu Mingliang was surrounded by a hundred people for the first time, and listened to him telling everything that happened after going to sea.

This is a kind of glory.

It's also a kind of fear.

When this guy was in the academy, he was not a good student. If he could make a name for himself in other categories, he would not have to study the last translation of the academy.

Therefore, in front of Duan Guoren, Han Lingshan, Qian Shaoshao and others' words, Liu Mingliang was sweating profusely and unknowingly explained what he had done in Southeast Asia.

The conversation took two full days...

Yun Zhao and others have fully understood what Han Xiufen did in Malacca through Liu Mingliang's vision.

After receiving the question, Liu Mingliang seemed to have been seriously ill. He found that under the purposeful questioning of these people, he not only said what he knew, but even what he had forgotten seemed to be clearly stated.

Yun Zhao looked at Liu Mingliang who was lying on the chair and said, "It seems like that's it."

Qian Shaoshao said: "I didn't expect that the boats of the foreigners were so powerful. Lao Han, it seems that there was a reason for you to get two Dutch armed merchant ships in Penghu."

Han Lingshan said: "Fortunately when I went to Europe, the county master specially approved Han Xiufen to go. If she didn't go, we would probably miss a big era."

Duan Guoren looked at the afterglow of the setting sun and sighed: "I used to think that tying the stone Yanran is the achievement of men. Now it seems that the sea has abundant resources, and the people's farming, animal husbandry and fishing are also a great achievement."

Han Lingshan said: "If you don't go to the sea, you won't know how vast the ocean is. If you don't be on the boat, you won't know how rich the ocean is.

We can deal with enemies on land. If the enemy comes from the sea, just like I am bombarding the southeast coastal port, if we do not have a powerful navy, we will be trapped on land and unable to move.

Therefore, I fully support Han Xiufen and Shi Lang."

Liu Mingliang's understanding of Malacca and even his understanding of the ocean made Yun Zhao and others completely strengthen their determination to develop maritime power.

Liu Mingliang may not have realized the importance of the ocean, and these people have discovered it from his words or events.

All of us are smart people. Since our opinions have been unified, we should have a clear direction to move forward.

When Hunan is gone, it is Jiangxi, and after Jiangxi is gone, it is Fujian.

There were countless top scholars, Jinshi, scholars and even cabinet masters in these two places. They can be called the old nests of Ming officials and are the places where Yun Zhao most hopes to be harmed by bandits.

Li Hongji, who has relatively mild methods, is not a suitable candidate. Only by killing demons like Zhang Bingzhong can he manage Jiangxi and Fujian well.

Of course, Zhang Bingzhong will definitely encounter unprecedented resistance in Jiangxi, but this is not something that matters to Yun Zhao.

He thought to himself that for Zhang Bingzhong, his dignified wild boar spirit was much more terrifying than the officers and soldiers of Jiangxi and the gentry.

Qian Shaoshao said: "After Zhang Bingzhong seized Changsha, he stopped moving forward. After he occupied Changsha this time, he did not use the violent means of slaughtering Shu. The people of Changsha seemed to welcome this person very much.

To be honest, I don’t understand why the people believe him.”

Han Lingshan smiled and said, "Hunan has a strong custom, and there has always been a saying that half of the bandits and half of the people. In addition, Hunan is already mountainous and has a dangerous terrain, and it makes people's wind gather in the mountains and forests.

When Zhang Bingzhong went to Hunan, wouldn’t it be the fish that entered the sea?

The surge in strength is expected."

Duan Guoren said: "It's difficult for him to let Zhang Bingzhong's troops enter Jiangxi."

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "It's easy. Since Zhang Bingzhong has taken Changsha, then continue to go south. Jiangxi and Fujian should also have some external forces to disrupt the political situation there.

We can catch fish when the water is muddy."

Qian Shaoshao said: "Since we can take Li Hongji's Xiangyang, I think it should be no problem to take Zhang Bingzhong's Wuchang again."

Yun Zhao's eyes flashed over Hanlingshan, Duan Guoren, Gao Jie and Yun Juan's faces. Seeing that they were all nodding, he said to Liu Cheng: "Draw an order and order the Fengxiang Group to train Yun Jiao to enter Tianshui.

The Tianshui Tuan trained the cloud leopard to enter Xiangyang.

Order Lei Heng's army to continue moving forward and enter Wuchang."

Liu Cheng repeated the orders and quickly drafted the document. In front of everyone, he used Yun Zhao's seal and the military affairs department seal stored here. He then encapsulated the three military orders in a cowhide tube and handed them to the three messengers, and set off immediately.

Watching the messenger leave, Qian Shaoshao smiled and said, "The last time Lei Heng soldiers entered Xiangyang, Zhang Bingzhong did not accept Li Hongji's joint resistance to us. I don't know what Li Hongji's attitude would be when Zhang Bingzhong went to Li Hongji for help this time."

Yun Zhao sneered and said, "It's just a bandit."

As of now, Yun Zhao still did not form a real military struggle with the Ming Dynasty.

Part of the territory that Lantian currently owns is the land that the imperial court voluntarily gave up, and the other part is the uninhabited land after the bandits rage. Now, Yun Zhao has given up the strategy of keeping a low profile and began to recover the land from the bandits.

This is part of Lantian’s strategy to demonstrate righteousness.

This strategy has been implemented to this day and has been divided into extremely detailed and targeted.

No matter what the reason is, as long as the court dares to give up the rule of a piece of land, Lantian will quickly accept it. Basically, the land received by Lantian, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the giant bandits, is unlikely to be taken away again.

Now, Yun Zhao's wild boar has finally grown up, and his fangs have finally come out of his mouth, and his mountain-like figure has left a shadow like dark clouds in the Ming world.

Today, I finally made up my mind again, and the next step is to see if my determination can be fully implemented.

Yun Zhao is actually not so concerned about execution issues. What his subordinates need is not encouragement, but constraints. Young people are always so impatient. They all hope to find their own opportunities to make achievements in this torrent of reshaping the Ming world.

This is the first time that the Guanzhong group training has been mobilized to form a system.

For Guanzhong, regiment training is usually a local garrison army. Although they have no military status, they are actually doing things that the army can do.

When defending the inner garrison, the regiment training usually draws five or one, and the 20% of the people and horses will have temporary military status and all treatments will be paid at the second level of the army and horse.

This time, whether it is Yun Jiao's Fengxiang Group Training or Yun Bao's Tianshui Group Training, they are the team training with the longest setting, the longest training, and the strongest combat power.

When they go to war, they must draw according to the practice of five draws and three draws.

In three days, Yunbao had gathered 6,000 team training, while Yunjiao, located in the essence of Guanzhong, drew 8,000 troops.

The Tianshui Tuanzheng area under his jurisdiction was too large, and Yun Jiao could not be disrespectful.

At this time, Yunbao, who was ordered to go to Xiangyang, was still marching quickly on Wuguan Road, and Lei Heng had already led a large army of air groups to move out.

Lei Heng sent troops this time surprisingly quickly. His subordinates were extremely dissatisfied with no battle last time.

The third day after receiving the order, the main army led by Lei Heng himself had taken down Suizhou, 300 miles away, and during the attack, he had almost no decent resistance.

The first time the explorer came to report that the bandit was twenty miles away. When the second time he returned, the bandit was fifty miles away...

The same was true for another partial army commanded by the deputy general Yun Xiao. After conquering Jingmen without bloodshed, he marched towards Jingzhou at night.

This military operation will surely shock the whole world.

Yun Zhao no longer cared so much about this level of shock.

Since everyone in the world knows that Yun Zhao's character Zhao is Sima Zhao's, I would be sorry for everyone's expectations if I don't do anything Sima Zhao did.

After finishing these things, Yun Zhao was finally able to go home.

The house was quiet, and the two sons and a daughter were taken by their mother to Jinxian Temple to burn incense.

Yunchun and Yunhua were basking in the sun in the yard to pick their noses, and He Chang sat on a small stool with four little maids embroidered flowers.

Yun Zhao, who was tired, pushed open the bedroom door and a scream came from inside.

I hurriedly ran in and saw that my eyes were about to turn red.

Feng Ying was turning around and hurriedly putting on the underwear, while Qian Duoduo was lying naked in a huge basin, his face covered with pearl powder and was smiling at him.

And there is no drop of water in the basin - it is full of pearls and gems...
