Chapter 339

The county magistrate Ming Zhao and Meng Liao agreed with each other.

He said: "It is the right way to fight the rebellion north. As for the Hayi tribe and the Su Nu tribe, they can let themselves deal with those hostile tribes first. If they really can't hold on, it's not too late for Your Highness to consider sending troops to rescue him."

Qin Shengying frowned and said, "If Your Highness did this, it would definitely make Su Nuren and the man in Ha feel very disappointed. The prestige that Your Highness finally established in the two tribes will be destroyed!"

Once reputation is destroyed, it will be too difficult to re-establish it.

Chen Fang said seriously: "General Qin is right!"

He turned to look at Li Yu, intervened and bowed, and said, "Your Highness, the tribe coalition is now eyeing the covetous forces. The Hayi tribe is the first to be the first to be a priority. Our border army should immediately enter the Hayi tribe!"

After a moment of pause, he added: "Even if one hundred thousand tigers and wolves are kept in a captive place, they will only become a flock of 100,000 sheep! Since they are tigers and wolves, they should gallop on the battlefield and fight and practice!"

Ming Zhao said seriously: "General Shen, the military strategy is full of chaos, and those who are warlike will perish!"

Chen Fang said tit-for-tat: "Ming Duwei seems to have forgotten another sentence later, those who are dead will be in danger!"

Ming Zhao was dissatisfied with arguing, and Li Yu waved his hand to interrupt the dispute between the two.

He said: "In order to control the Hayi tribe, the Su Nu tribe has killed and injured many people. I will never give in to the fruits of victory that I finally achieved. Therefore, in this battle, we must fight with the tribe's coalition forces to the end! As for the Five Kings' Rebels, there are naturally 400,000 troops from the capital to deal with it."

Speaking of this, Li Yuhan looked at Ming Zhao with a smile and said, "Even if the Ming Duwei has the intention to make achievements, I am afraid that the emperor who is far away in the capital will not be able to see it!"

The following sentence made Ming Zhao blush.

When fighting against the barbarians, no matter how many enemies they kill and make great contributions, the court will at best verbally commend it.

It is different to suppress the rebels. As long as you can win a big victory, your future career will undoubtedly be smooth and soar.

Compared with the two hatchbacks, Ming Zhao is of course more willing to suppress the rebels.

Li Yu's eyes turned, then looked at Chen Fang again, and said, "General Chen!"

"I'm here!"

Chen Fang quickly intervened and bowed.

"I appoint you as the commander of the border army, command all border troops, and enter the Hayi tribe as soon as possible!"

"I obey the order!"

"Ming Duwei!"

"I'm here!"

"You are responsible for the logistics of the border army. As long as you can guarantee the supplies of the soldiers of the front army, no matter what the outcome of this battle is, I will remember the great achievements of the Duwei!"

"I obey the order!"

Whether it is ancient wars or modern wars, logistics supply is one of the keys to determining victory or defeat.

The number of people supplied by logistics is basically the same as the number of soldiers fighting in front.

If there are 100,000 soldiers fighting in front, then there will be 100,000 strong men in the rear who are responsible for transporting supplies.

The food transported was almost half eaten on the road.

If the front line is too long, it would be good to have two or three percent of the food transported from the rear to the front line.

Otherwise, when fighting is about making money, it consumes too much and consumes too much human resources.

Li Yu appointed Chen Fang as the commander, commanded the border troops, and stationed in the Hayi tribe.

At present, the border army has reached 100,000, but more than half of them are Su Nu people.

If we only look at race, the border army cannot be called the Zhou army at all, but it is entirely the army of the Su Nu tribe.

However, the Su Nu people in the border army were equipped with the weapons and armor of the Zhou army last year.

After a look, it was almost the same as the soldiers of the Zhou army.

Chen Fang and other soldiers went to the Hayi tribe first. The reason why Li Yu did not go to the Hayi tribe with his army was mainly because a group of merchants from the Saro Kingdom came to Pyeongchang County.

The Saro Kingdom is located in the northwest of Fanhu, very far away from the Zhou Kingdom.

These Saro merchants were very interested in the sugar produced in Pyeongchang County, while Li Yu was also very interested in the same food in the Saro merchants, pepper.

In modern times, pepper is just an ordinary ingredient and is not valuable.

In ancient times, pepper was not produced in the Central Plains. Pepper was definitely a luxury, and it was a high-end luxury.

Take the current Great Zhou Dynasty as an example. One or two peppers can be sold for seven or eight thousand ci, which is extremely expensive.

Li Yu said to the headed merchant Saro: "You want to buy the sugar in my hand, yes, but I don't want the gold in your hand or the silver. I just want pepper."

The Saro merchants did not know Chinese, and a Fanhu man who was proficient in Chinese was used as a translator for them.

After hearing Li Yu's words, Saro Merchant bowed and asked, "I wonder how your Highness plans to exchange?"

"One liang of sugar, exchange for one liang of pepper."

After listening to the translation of the Fanhu people, the Saro merchants' faces changed the same.

They whispered to each other and whispered.

Finally, the businessman who was in charge said, "Your Highness is too expensive, right?"

After a moment of pause, he shook his head and said, "As far as I know, pepper can be sold for seven or eight thousand yuan in your country, while sugar can be sold for one or two, three hundred yuan in one or two! It would be too unsuitable for your Highness to exchange for pepper with an equal amount of sugar!"

"I think it's very suitable."

Li Yu said with a smile: "Even if my sucrose is only sold for one cent, can you Saro people buy it? As long as I don't nod, you Saro people can't buy one or two sugars even if you travel all over the Zhou Dynasty."

His words changed the faces of the Saro merchants again, and people whispered to each other again.

Li Yu continued: "Pepper is also very cheap in your Saro Kingdom! As the saying goes, things are rare and expensive. Sugar is very cheap in my Great Zhou. If you get it to your Saro Kingdom, you can also sell it at a sky-high price!"

The sucrose produced in Pyeongchang County now is not just ordinary sucrose, but has many flavors.

Among them are fruit candies with pulp and milk candies with milk.

This was definitely a rare thing at that time.

Anyone who has tasted it will flock to it.

It was after eating that the Saro merchant was very surprised that he decided to buy a batch of candy cubes so that he could take them back to the Saro Kingdom to sell them.

After discussing with the rest of the merchants for the Shousaro, he finally made a very difficult choice and said to Li Yu: "Your Highness, we are willing to exchange one or two pepper for five liang of sugar."

Li Yu shook his head and said, "One or two of peppers for sugar is the limit I can accept!"

The headed merchant Saro frowned, stretched out three fingers, and said, "One or two pepper for three or three sugars, no more can be lost!"

Li Yu insisted: "I said that my limit is to exchange one or two pepper for sugar. If you still want to bargain with me, then you can ask back!"

The headed merchant Saro whispered to his companions again.

This time they discussed for a long time, and finally said to Li Yu: "Two liang of pepper for five liang of sugar, your highness, you really can't lose it anymore!"
