Chapter 164

Liaodong
Royal Manor
Jia Cheng and three family ministers are discussing matters.

Wang Xiaoqian died long ago, and the new family is Wang Yujun, and the family has also changed, but they are all women from the Wang family.

"Incheon City requests the transfer of 1 oxen and [-] iron plows."

"How can we have so many oxen and iron plows now?"

"Iron plows are easy to say. Although the number of 1 is too scary, we have all iron factories suspend the production of weapons, and fully produce iron plows. Slowly, they can always be supplied, but [-] cattle are not a small number."

"Now a cow costs 500 yuan, and if 4000 cows are all bought, it will cost at least [-] million yuan. The annual output of our Wang family is only worth about [-] million yuan. At our own expense."

"That is to say, it is absolutely unrealistic to buy [-] cattle with money, unless our Wang family children do not eat, drink or consume for a year."

"Wuhuan is relatively close to Liaodong, and they are nomadic. They should have more cattle. Can you smuggle some cattle from Wuhuan?"

"Sisters, I have a better way."

"what?"

"Didn't cousin Hongnian serve as a chariot and cavalry general in Chang'an? The niece of the government is also the queen of the dynasty. Can you let them listen to the wind and encourage the emperor to declare war on Wuhuan, and then our royal family can take the opportunity to plunder Wuhuan during the war?" cattle, so as to solve the cattle shortage problem.”

"Forehead……"

"That's a good way. You can just go whoring for nothing, and what are you going to do to smuggle and buy cattle?"

……

Liaodong County
"They want to use this method to solve the cattle shortage?"

Wang Hongyin, the prefect of Liaodong, looked at the letter sent by his own soldiers, and kept thinking about the feasibility of this plan, and his gray hair increased a lot.

This is because Aunt Wang Chaoge died shortly after assassinating the governor of Youzhou, at the age of 110, which caused the Wang family to lose a powerful asylum, which made Wang Hongyin sad for a long time.

"You can give it a try."

In the end, Wang Hongyin also decided to follow the proposal of Jia Cheng and the three family ministers, and asked his soldiers to send a letter to Chang'an to inform Wang Ling and Wang Hongnian of the matter.

……

A few months later
Changan
Royal Mansion
The 63-year-old Wang Ling received a letter from her family, so she approached General Wang Hongnian to discuss the matter.

Wang Hongnian is 66 years old, but he is still alive and well, so he agrees with this plan. He thinks it is easy to make a small Wuhuan.

"The Queen still needs to act." Wang Ling finally added.

"Naturally." Wang Hongnian said with a smile. The court has not fought wars these years, and it is difficult for them generals to be promoted. Therefore, attacking Wuhuan can not only solve the cattle shortage for the family, but also give him a chance to be promoted.

"what happened?"

Seeing the frowning face of Queen Wang Zhengjun, Liu Xi said with some distress.

"My hometown was plundered by Wuhuan people, and many people were slaughtered." Wang Zhengjun replied.

"I will send envoys to Wuhuan, ask them to apologize and send the looters' heads to Chang'an." Liu Xi comforted, and put Wang Zhengjun in his arms: "I heard that Ao'er was praised by the great Confucianism?"

"Yes, Ao'er is very talented, and he can draw inferences from one another when he studies Confucian classics." Wang Zhengjun also loves his own son very much, but as the Wang family, he must also be responsible to the Wang family.

ten days later

Weiyang Palace

main hall
"Wuhuan plundered the border people of our big Han, please conquer Wuhuan and show our country's prestige!"

At today's court meeting, Chariot General Wang Hongnian requested to conquer Wuhuan.

The ministers looked at Wang Hongnian, they were very curious, they didn't understand why General Cheqi suddenly wanted to attack Wuhuan, so they could only think that General Cheqi might really dislike Wuhuan's plundering of the big Han border people.

"Wuhuan has surrendered to my big man, and the looters who went south are just Wuhuan's horse bandits, how can my big man mobilize troops to conquer?" Someone dissuaded.

Wang Hongnian glanced at the person who said this, he was a descendant of the Langya Wang family, but the Langya Wang family is still very weak, and they are like ants in front of the Liaodong Wang family.

So Wang Hongnian directly reprimanded him: "Do you want to condone Wuhuan's plundering, so that foreign barbarians think that I am a big man and have no one?"

That disciple of the Wang family of Langya just wanted to show his love for the people and gain some fame for himself, and had no other meaning. He never thought that General Cheqi would be so determined to beat Wuhuan that he would reprimand him, so he trembled. Dare to speak again.

Da Wuhuan had no direct interest in the gentry present, nor did it have any interest in the eunuch group, so the vast majority of people remained silent, neither supporting nor opposing, silently waiting for the emperor to speak.

"Hmm..." Emperor Liu Xi had no idea. Seeing that all the ministers were silent, he thought of the empress Wang Zhengjun's sad face, so he said: "Then the general of chariots and cavalry will lead fifty thousand cavalry and go to conquer Wuhuan."

"Sir, obey the order!" Wang Hongnian was very happy.

Using the soldiers of the imperial court to rob foreign barbarians, and finally transfer the robbed livestock secretly to his own family to strengthen the strength of his own family, the first step of this empty-handed white wolf plan has been successful.

……

a few months later
"Damn it, who acted without authorization and went south to plunder Han land?"

Hearing that fifty thousand cavalry from the great Han Dynasty were coming to conquer him, Wuhuan Shanyu was frightened out of his wits.

Wuhuan is the foreign vassal of the Han Dynasty. Although he occasionally went south to plunder the Han land, he mainly plundered Yuyang County, Shanggu County, and Liaoxi County. He never plundered Liaodong County, because although Liaodong County also bordered Wuhuan , but it only borders a little bit, and the distance is a little farther away, and Liaodong County is too poor, and there is nothing to loot.

Since the surrender of the Huns, Wuhuan has not plundered the Han land for decades.

In the past, when the Xiongnu attracted the firepower of the Han army, Wuhuan could secretly go south to plunder, but the Huns had already bowed their heads and surrendered. If they went to plunder Han territory at this time, wouldn’t they be beaten to death by the Han army?
"Report to the Great Chanyu, the Chariot and Cavalry General of the Han Kingdom has agreed to our peace proposal!" At this time, a Wuhuan envoy returned to the Shanyu court and said happily.

"OK!"

Wuhuan Shanyu also let go of his uneasy heart, and many Wuhuan nobles also breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Monan Grassland
The Han army is still marching towards Wuhuan, and will soon reach Wuhuan Shanyuting.

"Since the general agreed to the Wuhuan envoy's peace request, why did he continue to march north?" A general was puzzled.

"Soldiers, tricks too!" Wang Hongnian didn't want to explain too much, so he told him: because I was afraid that the Wuhuan people would run away, so I wouldn't be able to rob them of their livestock, so I pretended to agree to their peace request to make them feel at ease Continue to stay in Shan Yuting, and then I can go to Shan Yuting to take them all?

The generals at the side also seriously thought about Wang Hongnian's sentence "Soldiers are deceitful", and mistakenly thought that Wang Hongnian wanted to use this method to paralyze the Wuhuan people, and then caught them off guard and defeated the Wuhuan people.

"General, heaven and man!" The general flattered Wang Hongnian.

"Hehe..." Wang Hongnian ignored it, but was thinking about how to secretly drive the looted cattle and sheep to Liaodong after defeating Wuhuan.
