My Brother Daqin No. 1 Dude

Chapter 222 Ten Thousand People Are Enough
Handi Yiyang.

In the past two days, blood-stained pigeon feathers fell from the sky, and the sound of hawks croaked from time to time.

These extremely abnormal things made some people in Yiyang feel uneasy, not sure if it was a sign of natural or man-made disasters.

But maybe it's because the money he got from mining iron for the family in recent days is really too much.

There are only a few uneasy people, and most of them are immersed in the mood of working hard and making money to live a fat year.

The iron carts on the street are still in an endless stream, and every blacksmith shop is clanging and knocking on the iron ore like a competition.

Lu's Chamber of Commerce is not demanding, and does not need to make any iron swords, shovels and other tools.

It is only necessary to simply purify the iron ore to produce iron, and the Lu Chamber of Commerce will accept it.

Inside a shop of Lu's Chamber of Commerce.

Lu Buwei, who had just sent scientists back to Qin, was lying on his back on a rocking chair woven from bamboo, listening to his subordinates report on the recent situation, and the old god was there.

The bamboo rocking chair creaked softly.

The 22 people, who were already nervous, looked at the rocking chair, bored, and held back their words.

"In the past two days, all the pigeons were captured by the hawks. The number of hawks we kept was far less than that of the Zhang family, and all of them died. Now the order can't go out of Yiyang, and if we want to control other cities and counties, we have to send them off quickly."

"The paper fell into the hands of the Zhang family, and re-scribbled on it for the Zhang family and sent it to the cities and counties again. The cities and counties did not know the current situation in Yiyang, and acted according to the new order on the paper. Some raised the price of iron to twenty times, and some raised the price of iron to three times. Ten times, most are in chaos."

"Your Majesty's food storage in Han is only enough to feed the people of Han for seven days. We can keep the price of food in Han unchanged, and it won't last long."

"..."

22 people, you finish your sentence and tell me all the recent news, waiting for the businessman to issue an order.

Today, these top-notch business talents in their respective regions have a lot of complaints against Lu Buwei.

He collected iron at a high price for no reason, refused to listen to people's persuasion, and scattered all the grain in order to stabilize the grain price in Korea.

It is a stupid act to spend countless money and food, and finally get some iron that can be seen everywhere in Korea.

How can he be worthy of the nickname of businessman? His Majesty must have been deceived!

"It doesn't sound like good news." Lu Buwei closed his eyes and smiled.

squeak squeak~

The sound of the rocking chair is still there.

Do you still know?
The elites secretly thought.

"Carrier pigeons can't fly if they can't fly. It doesn't hurt to spend a little more money. Hurry up and send a message to stop selling food. Let the wise men fill in the food shortage in Han."

The 22 people looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

"Don't stop buying iron?"

One couldn't help but ask back.

"Han is different from Guanzhong. There is no shortage of iron in Han. Closing down the iron can lead to chaos in one place. The two cannot be generalized."

Another person agreed.

Afterwards, most of the people spoke out, this order is really bad!
"The food that is enough for the people of Korea for a month is sold at such a low price that there are only seven days left. Why?"

"If we can't restore the carrier pigeon message, we will always be one step behind the Zhang family when we get information. How can we win if we are weaker than others?"

"At this time, you should ask your majesty to send someone capable of taming falcons to Yiyang. I can't pass it on letter paper, and I want the Zhang family to ruin this journey!"

"..."

The more people talked, the more vigorous they were, expressing their inner thoughts and giving advice to the merchants in the business war.

"You gentlemen."

The rocking chair stopped, Lu Buwei kept the rocking chair still with one foot on the ground, and turned to look at the crowd.

The more people talked, the lower their voices. Under the calm gaze of the businessman, they all became quiet, and most of their heads drooped a little.

How could there be such a great pressure from the superiors?It's more stressful than seeing the sheriff.

Lu Buwei's real identity is kept secret.

They only know the merchant, but they don't know that the merchant is Lu Buwei.

"Do as I say."

Everyone was silent for a while, not wanting to obey orders.

They don't see what the businessman is trying to do, or how to win.

"only."

Suddenly there was a person who couldn't stand Lu Buwei's calm eyes and answered with his head down.

The first domino is toppled.

Lu Buwei nodded to the first person who responded, and looked at the people who hadn't spoken.

"what about you?"

"only."

One sighed lightly and said in a low voice.

"only!"

One person responded quite loudly, with a slight resentment in his heart.

"only!"

One person turned his head and responded while walking, his anger was beyond words.

"See how you explain to Your Majesty!"

One person looked rebellious, not only should not, but also pointed at Lu Buwei to reprimand boldly.

……

Shang County.

County Sheriff's Office.

Great Qin Crown Prince Ying Fusu sat in the position that should have belonged to the county guard.

under its seat.

No. 1 in the left hand is Han Fei, followed by the governor and then the governor.

No.1 on the right is Li Mu, followed by Meng Wu and Meng Tian.

The seven most distinguished people in Shangjun sat indoors, discussing the Huns' invasion, and it was coming to an end.

Meng Tian, ​​who is at the end of the right hand, stood up and cupped his fists, facing Ying Fusu, whom he had seen big since he was a child, and regarded him as his nephew in his heart, he said in a deep voice, "Tian will not return to Yanmen, Jiuyuan, I wish to die by the sword of the Huns!"

Ying Fusu hesitated, unable to make up his mind.

Uncle said that foreign affairs were not decided and asked Li Mu.

He slightly turned his head to look at Li Mu who closed his eyes and rested his mind. He had been silent since the beginning of the meeting, as if he didn't care about the situation of this battle.

"Mr. Wu An thinks, can General Meng attack?"

Li Mu didn't open his eyes, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "There is only Meng Tian in the room, how can I get General Meng?"

During the Qin Dynasty, the correct usage of the word general was to refer to the general who led the army.

will lead.

The army is the army.

General means to lead an army.

If a military general does not lead troops outside, it stands to reason that he should not be called a general.

The title of general is flooding.

One is because the word "general" is to a general, just like "beauty" is to a woman, and it suits her liking.

The second is because the first emperor didn't care about these red tapes at all.

There is only Meng Tian in the house, there is no general Meng, this is opposition.

"Li Mu, are you attacking Tian Yu Chang'an's palace for taking your revenge!" Meng Tian glared at Li Mu with fury.

Jiuyuan County was his fief, which was lost to the Xiongnu in his hands.

His soldiers, his cronies, and his comrades-in-arms were all buried in his fief.

He was looking forward to killing him day and night.

Li Mu sneered and his smile widened, half of the mockery was mixed in, and his eyes were still closed.

In Meng Tian's eyes, even if Mu is too lazy to talk to you, are you worthy of talking to Mu?

"How dare Zhao Ren bully me like this!"

Meng Tian drew his sword at his waist angrily.

呲~
A sword, Xianmeng Tian's sword, shines from this hall.

Meng Wu stood in front of Meng Tian, ​​with a dark face, tilted his sword, and looked at Li Mu with a murderous look.

"Wu'er can't come out, how about Wu'er!"

Li Mu yawned, he seemed a little tired, but his eyes were still closed.

"Your surname is not Meng?"

There is no general Meng in the house, and no one with the surname Meng is worthy of being a general.

"Zhao Gou dares to insult my father!"

Meng Tian drew his sword and rushed forward angrily.

Meng Wu blocked it with his cross arm.

Meng Tian glared at his father angrily.

Father why stop me!

"The dog is rude, Mr. Zhao Wu'an forgive me."

While talking, Meng Wu took a step forward with his sword in hand, getting closer to Li Mu.

"However, if Mr. Zhao Wu'an can't tell the reason why my father and son can't figure it out today, don't blame the sharpness of the sword!"

Li Mu shouldn't, with a dismissive expression on his face, as if saying that you two are not worthy of Mu's explanation.

Seeing Meng Wu, Meng Tian and his son were furious, and they were about to join the battle.

Ying helped Su to Meng Wu, Meng Tian turned his head and said softly to Li Mu with unmovable eyes, "Mr. Wu An, can you tell me a thing or two?"

Only then did Li Mu open his eyes, his expression softened a lot.

Not looking directly at Meng Wu, Meng Tian and his son standing in the hall, Li Mu said coldly: "Mu heard that Meng Tian defeated Jiuyuan. On the day Jiuyuan was conquered by the Huns, he ran back to Shangjun like a wild dog that lost its owner, begging Meng Wu to send troops. The sheriff, the magistrate, is there any such thing?"

How do you speak to us?When we are your soldiers?

The sheriff, the magistrate doesn't want to talk.

Ying Fu cast a stern look on Su.

"Have."

"Ah."

The county guard and the county magistrate are helpless, unwilling to be authentic.

"Doubian County is defeated by the Xiongnu, this is a disadvantage in the war."

Li Mu said coldly.

"Jiuyuan only has five thousand soldiers and horses, can Mr. Zhao Wu'an defend them?"

Meng Wu said in a deep voice.

As an example, only [-] soldiers and horses in the above county can be guarded. Although this county is the barrier to the northwest, there are many soldiers left behind.

But Jiuyuan County, which is the same county as Shangjun, has only [-] soldiers and horses, and it really shouldn't be, and Jiuyuan is still a border county directly facing the Huns.

Five thousand soldiers can't defend Jiuyuan County, it seems that it should be, and it should not be classified as a disadvantage in the war.

If you have to say that my son is not good in battle, then please Li Mu tell me how five thousand soldiers and horses can defend Jiuyuan.

"Heh." Li Mu let out a laugh, and said casually, "Mu is in Jiuyuan, and the Xiongnu dare not go south by himself."

"Arrogant words!" Meng Tian sneered.

Sun Tzu, Wu Zi, and Sun Bin will not be able to defend Jiuyuan with five thousand soldiers and horses even if they are resurrected, so just brag!

"Noisy!" Meng Wu turned around and shouted angrily.

Meng Tian was puzzled.

Meng Wu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger on his face, and gave a deep salute like Li Mu.

"Yanmen, Jiuyuan is safe for ten years, all rely on Zhao Wu'an's remaining prestige. My son loses Jiuyuan, and the war is not good."

Hearing this, Li Mu turned his head to look at Meng Wu, staring at him for two breaths.

"That was the frontier of my country Zhao, and Mu Fei fought for your country Qin."

"Since you have received the shadow, you should recognize it."

The county guard and the county magistrate felt very uncomfortable and cursed secretly.

General Qin worships Zhao Gou, what a shame!

Han Fei secretly looked at the faces, expressions, and changes of everyone in the room, thinking about something.

Sitting in the first place, Prince Daqin, who had an absolute dominant position, leaned back and resisted the urge to say something.

"Soldiers are not good, but being a man is fine." Li Mu said calmly.

Meng Tian was furious and took two steps forward.

Meng Wu firmly pressed his son's shoulder, suppressed his voice and said: "Please continue to teach me, Mr. Zhao Wu'an."

"What else do I need to say?"

Li Mu's tone was full of sarcasm, enough to make Meng Tian's eyes bloodshot.

"After the Xiongnu conquered Jiuyuan, your son fled back to Shangjun and said that the Xiongnu had not completely occupied Jiuyuan. He pointed to the wolf smoke in the sky and said he was asking for help. Even beginners in the art of warfare know that it is wolf dung lit by the Huns to lure them into the bait.

"You don't even know this, why send him soldiers and horses to Jiuyuan? Send him the head of the Huns? Your Meng family was invaded by Meng Ao, a family of Qin military generals. Meng Ao lost a lot of battles at the beginning, and you don't know Simple military theory.

"How powerful can you be in the middle, who is not as famous as your father and not as good as your son? Since the beginning of the Qin Dynasty, Wang Jian has been the most powerful. His soldiers are stronger than Mu's. The number of soldiers is stronger than Mu, so he still can't attack Mu. If it is broken, the deputy commander will be outside the city of Handan."

Li Mu closed his eyes, his face became calm, and he said calmly: "Mu thought Wang Jian was the leader of the Qin generals. I never thought that you are not as good as the next generation, and I regret not fighting Bai Qi."

pop~
Meng Tian broke away from his father's hand that was pressing on his shoulder, his face was full of ferocity.

"Who said I didn't know the Huns set up an ambush? I know! But even so, if you give me [-] sharp soldiers, I have the confidence to lead my troops to defeat the Huns! I said that day because I wanted my father to send troops, so I pretended not to know!"

"Is that so?" Li Mu closed his eyes and said casually, "Do you have confidence? Where does your confidence come from? Did you let 20 of the Qin army die in Chu, or let [-] of the Qin army die in the Xiongnu scimitar?"

"you!"

pop~
Meng Wu turned around and slapped Meng Tian heavily on the mouth.

Meng Tian was caught off guard by this blow, his head was tilted sideways, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

"Nizi! Don't you think it's not enough to be embarrassing! Mr. Wu An made a mistake!"

"General Mengwu calm down." Prince Ying Fu Su said.

Li Mu closed his eyes and rested his mind, and stopped talking, as if he was not interested in the next discussion.

Meng Tian licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, turned his head, and didn't blame his father for beating him.

Looking at Li Mu who is the first on the right, his eyes are blood red, and he said: "Tian wants to ask..."

Meng Wu was furious and interrupted.

"Rebel..."

Li Mu opened his eyes, looked at Meng Wu coldly, and Meng Tian, ​​father and son, interrupted Meng Wu's speech.

"Let him talk, Mu wants to hear what shameless things he can say."

Meng Tian wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, and the blazing anger in his eyes turned into thousand-year-old ice, and his voice was as cold as Li Mu's.

"Tian wants to ask, Li Mu, how many soldiers and horses do you need to restore Yanmen and Jiuyuan?"

Sneer.

"Don't tell Tian what happened back then, it's meaningless. You just talk about how many soldiers and horses you need to restore Yanmen Jiuyuan!"

"Mu only needs [-] soldiers and horses." Li Mu sneered softly, and said, "Why, you want to compare with Mu?"

"Not bad!"

Meng Tian's eyes flashed, he stomped his feet heavily, clenched his fists, and bent his body ninety degrees.

Qi said loudly: "Tian only needs [-] soldiers and horses! I would like to issue a military order! I will not go to Jiuyuan for three days, Yanmen, and the head of the owl!"

Meng Wu's face darkened.

"You bastard..."

Ying Fusu's expression changed.

"General Meng Tian must not act arrogantly..."

The two spoke at the same time, and when they were halfway through speaking at the same time, Li Mu suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.

"Okay! This battle is up to you Meng Tian to fight! Fifteen thousand soldiers and horses, one is not many, one is not many. If you can't fight, you will die!"

"Can!"

Meng Tian spat heavily on the ground.

"Bah! It's just a trivial matter in the Chang'an Lord's residence, so they will retaliate. Even Mr. Zhao Wu'an is a narrow-minded villain!"

The next day.

Meng Tian led fifteen thousand soldiers and horses out of Shangjun.

The head of Shangjun city.

Meng Wu and Li Mu stood together, watching Meng Tian go away, watching fifteen thousand soldiers go away.

"To be honest, how many people do you need to take down Yanmen and Jiuyuan?"

Meng Wu asked.

"1 people are enough."

Li Mu replied.

Who told Jun Shang to be optimistic about this silly boy...
