When he woke up, he found himself possessed Chen Shubao, the emperor of Chen State. The Northern Dynasties had already arrived at the city. The other party was not the Sui army in yellow military uniforms, but the Zhou army like a black tide.

The Sui Kingdom has perished, but the Zhou Kingdom, which should have perished, has continued, which is somewhat different from the original history. This is an era that has been changed by time travelers. What should I do?

Looking at Zhang Lihua who was as beautiful as a fairy beside him and Qinhuai, who was misty and misty, he decided to change his fate against the will of heaven.

Within a few days, Chen Jun, who had built cross-age weapons and equipped with bore-bore guns and bore-bore guns, fled to the attacking Zhou army. He led the Northern Expedition Army, which was fully fire-armed, and advanced rapidly, and finally arrived outside Xiyang City, Huangzhou, Jiangbei.

In front of him, a strange army appeared, and the weapons of this army should not have appeared in this era. Every soldier wore a gas mask, held a rifled rifle in his hand, was equipped with a rear-mounted infantry cannon and poison gas bombs.

The man stood on the top of a overhead tracked tank and looked down at him with pity and mockery: "You are late!"

The ambitions disappeared in an instant. When the chlorine gas toxic fog was about to cover him, he whistled to the sky with grief and anger: "This is unscientific!"

"Cough cough cough cough cough!" Yu Wen Wen coughed. He had a strange dream in ancient times. The content of the dream was ridiculous and made people laugh and cry, so he was awakened by his saliva.

When he opened his eyes, what caught his eye was a mosquito net, with blood stains on it. The remains of mosquitoes and blood were imprinted on the white mosquito net. Yu Wenwen touched his itchy cheeks, which had several large bags on it.

His mind gradually recovered, and he remembered what happened last night: because he learned that Zhou Jun had suffered consecutive defeats outside Jiankang City, he really couldn't figure it out, so he tossed and turned and slept in indecently. He accidentally kicked open the mosquito net and let some mosquitoes slip in.

As a result, he was bitten all over his body. Yuwen Wen beat the mosquito, which he had been beaten for a while, before he fell asleep again.

With a "bang", Yuwen Wen killed another mosquito and spread his palms open. He saw a blood-red patch of blood. The mosquito sucked blood and pooped, almost unable to fly.

After being bitten by mosquitoes like this, Yuwen Wen was worried that he might have had a disease that caused his head to dream. He touched his forehead and found that it was cold and not hot, so he felt a little relieved.

The hazy sunlight shone through the window on the ground in the room. It seemed that it was already early in the morning. Yu Wenwen simply got up and went around the yard to wash his face with cold water. When he turned back to the room, he looked at the morning light and looked at a summary.

This summary was handed over to him by Wang Xun yesterday evening. The summary content is the result of Wang Xun's investigation during this period, and it is all about the analysis of the situation in Anzhou Ning family.

Yangyangsha wrote a lot of words. In short, Wang Xun defined Anzhou Ning family as "ambitious", and suggested that Yuwen Wen be reserved to support the other party.

Why did Wang Xu say that Ning had ambitions?

When he saw the leopard in the tube, he connected some trivial details into lines and finally came to the conclusion.

First, Song Shou, the capital of Anzhou Prefecture, was just a small city. Its scale did not look like a city, but a large family fortress. Compared with the fortresses of the Central Plains, it was just a rare scale.

In sharp contrast, the Ning family’s fort outside the city is much larger in scale. If no one explains it in advance, it is easy for newcomers to mistakenly think that the Ning family fort is Songshou City, and Songshou City is Ning family fortress.

Another point is that Song Shou has registered only more than a thousand households, and the paper data is very pitiful, and even a large village in the Central Plains is not as good as that. However, Wang Xu observed in secret these days that the number of households in the farmers who cultivate farmland around Song Shou is probably far away.

Hidden households is a common thing in this era. As a local wealthy family, it is normal for the Ning family to conceal their household registration on a large scale, but the number of households hidden exceeds 20,000, which is abnormal.

How did Wang Nai estimate this number?

Very simple, salt.

Anzhou is located on the coast, and the prefecture is under the jurisdiction of Songshou City. The Qin River flows into the sea in the south, forming a wide bay. Yuwen Wen was not sure where Anzhou was in later generations, but the Qin River gave him a reminder.

Lingbian Anzhou is probably the Qinzhou in Guangxi in later generations. The bay at the mouth of the Qin River should be Qinzhou Bay. The so-called eating from the sea by the sea is an important specialty by the sea, which is sea salt.

In this era, the production of sea salt relies on "cooking", which means boiling sea water to get the remaining salt. Wang Na observed that there were many stove households in Qinzhou Bay. Just a rough observation showed that there were a lot of stove households. He casually asked Ning about the situation of the salt cooking industry and used this to estimate how many stove households there were.

With the approximate number of stove households, the salt output is roughly estimated based on the monthly salt boiling amount of each household. Then, based on the verbal wind revealed by Ning, the approximate consumption of sea salt in Anzhou is introduced.

Because salt is a necessary thing for every household, and the amount of salt consumed by each household each year is very stable, Wang Xu used this to calculate how many households there are in Anzhou.

The estimated result is no less than 20,000 households, but the registered household registration of the state government office is only more than 1,000 households. Of course, the number of stove households given by Ning is definitely not the real number. The estimation method is very error-free, but at least it can estimate the approximate number.

But even so, it can be seen that the number of households hidden in Anzhou is very large, which shows that the strength of Anzhou Ning family is not as pitiful as Ning Mengli said, and will be overwhelmed by the Xiyuan Man.

The Nei 6 Xiyuan barbarians, far away from the sea, have a great demand for salt. Ning's hand has sufficient salt, which can win over many Xiyuan barbarian tribes. Therefore, once there is a need, it can bring out a large number of "friendly troops".

Even if it is a mob, it is a team that can kill people and is also a powerful helper for Ning's family to deal with other Xiyuan barbarians.

The reason why Ning Xuan, the younger brother of Ning Mengli, was able to become the prefect of Hepu because the Ning family attacked Hepu County, excluded the local hereditary governor and prefect, and formed factual control, and the governor of Yuezhou later became a puppet.

Because Chen Guogang solved the suspected rebellion of Guangzhou Governor Ma Jing, who was unable to react to the Hepu incident at that time, which made Ning's adventure successful. The new Guangzhou Governor pinched his nose and recognized this fait accompli.

The reason why Yuwen Wen knew about this was the reason that Wang Meng, the former Grand Governor of Lingnan of Chen State, submitted in advance.

The Ning family controlled Hepu, which meant controlling the salt cooking and pearling industries along the coasts of An and Yue states. Mrs. Xian had already explained to Yuwen Wen in advance.

Hepu pearls are famous in the Central Plains, and the Ning family makes countless profits every year by selling salt to the so-called "Xiyuan Man". Like the Feng Xian family of Gaoliang, Ning family has a huge maritime trade fleet.

The fleets of the two families traveled between the southern coast of Lingbiao, Jiaozhou and even the South China Sea countries, and brought rich profits to the two families and were the economic pillars that supported the Feng Xian family and Ning family ling.

The territory of Feng Xian of Gaoliang is close to Guangzhou, and the government is still in charge. However, the Ning family far away in Anzhou is far away and rich. If the emperor of Tiangao is reclaimed and hoarded grain by hoarding grain on a large scale, he may have obtained a large amount of iron tools...

I'm afraid it's a disaster for raising a tiger.

This is Wang Jun’s opinion, and Yu Wen Wen deeply agreed, because based on instinct, any central court must be wary of the border tyrants. Once they are allowed to grow, it will lead to a series of border defense problems.

Li Yuanhao, Lingxia in the early Northern Song Dynasty, and the Jurchens in the Liaodong in the late Ming Dynasty and even the She'an in the southwest, were painful lessons.

But he still decided to be a favored Ning family, not because of blind confidence, but because after weighing the pros and cons, he felt that as long as the pros and cons outweighed the disadvantages, he thought that since Ning family wanted to surrender, why bother to force the opponent?
