Daming: Pretending to be a blind prince, was exposed by Sister Zhou’s live broadcast

Chapter 0115 – Sending troops to the Western Regions, Li Jinglong is easy to get off the ship!!!

Li Jinglong’s idea is quite good.

He also wanted to take advantage of Zhu Li and let him help send someone to escort his caravan.

How could he have thought that this was a pit that Zhu Li had dug for him, and it was also a sinkhole!

On July 28, the 26th year of Daming Hongwu, the full moon wine of the second prince Zhu Xianye was being held in the Han King Mansion, and the name of Zhu Xianye was also sent by Ying Tianfu three days ago.

In addition to paying attention to the royal name, it must also be sent to the Zongren Mansion and entered into the genealogy jade butterfly.

However, these things do not need to be worried about by Zhu Li.

Just when Zhu Li and Zhou Shuyi were holding a full moon wine in the palace, and the guests who welcomed them also piled up all kinds of priceless gifts into a hill, Li Jinglong’s side had just organized a group of thirty caravans.

After receiving Zhu Li’s approval, he was ready to do a big business this time, and directly mobilized a group of henchmen and merchants affiliated with the name of Cao Guogong’s mansion from Yingtianfu, intending to take a batch of salt and silk worth 300,000 taels to Asuk.

It was said that it was purchased by the royal family and nobles of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and it should have been the list of two rich merchants in Hanzhong Province, but it was cut off by Li Jinglong.

To be precise, it should be the big order that these two rich businessmen are rushing to give to Li Jinglong!

Because these two rich businessmen were none other than the two businessmen with whom Li Jinglong had a conflict when he first entered Hanzhong!

In the name of apologizing, people directly surrendered such a big business to Li Jinglong, which naturally made Li Jinglong’s heart burst.

But at the same time, such a large order, if there is no army escort, he is really not at ease.

After receiving Zhu Li’s promise, Li Jinglong quickly contacted Ying Tianfu and summoned all the wealthy businessmen he raised and asked them to personally travel to the Western Regions.

The goods worth 300,000 taels, Li Jinglong is naturally particularly thoughtful.

“Be careful on the road, after you get out of the pass, the Hanzhong army will escort you from Hamiwei, through Urumqi, and then to Asuk!”

“Put away all your sets in Yingtianfu, and be polite to the soldiers of the Hanzhong Army?”

Before the caravan left, Li Jinglong explained two words to everyone uneasily.

“Grandpa, the palace is about to open the banquet, let’s hurry over.” It’s not good to go late! ”

As soon as the caravan side left, a guard hurriedly came and reminded Li Jinglong.

“Yes, yes, today is the big day of our little brother’s full moon, can’t you be late to the mountain to let you prepare something ready?” Hurry up and send it to the Han King Mansion. ”

Li Jinglong came back to his senses, and hurried to his horse, preparing to rush to the Han King Mansion to make a scene.

This is called a typical being sold, and you have to give money to the number of people!

He also didn’t want to think about how the big orders of the royal family of the Eastern Chagatai Khan could fall into the hands of two ordinary rich merchants?

Such a list is basically wrapped by the Han King Mansion itself!

Urumqi, in the Ming Dynasty, referred to an area, not a city.

Urbanization and the construction of large cities began during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

However, the area of Urumqi, since the Tang Dynasty began to garrison here, has become a military powerhouse in the Western Regions.

Living in the Urumqi region today are the two Mongol tribes of the Shuote and the Turkut.

They were all subordinate to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and the main area of activity was the city-state of Urumqi in the later era, to the central area around Bosten Lake, Luntai and Ili.

A month later, Li Jinglong’s caravan had arrived near Lake Bosten and was about to cross the two Mongol-controlled areas to Asuk.

Because there was a ten-person small flag sent by Geng Qing to escort him all the way, Li Jinglong’s caravan was also fearless along the way!

Don’t look at only a small banner for a dozen people, but as long as the flag of the Hanzhong Army is displayed, who dares to provoke?

Now in the Western Regions, who has the audacity to fight the idea of a caravan escorted by the Hanzhong army? The collapse of Hami is still vividly remembered, unless it is almost like starting a war with the Hanzhong army!

What’s more, this batch of goods of theirs was still sent to Asuk, which is where the capital of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate is located!

Rob the caravan in the Han and intercept the goods of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, unless these small tribes have their brains in the water!

Today’s Turkut tribe is still a small clan that has just emerged, and the leader’s name is Arudo, and the most willing thing to do is to ‘check’ the various caravans passing through Urumqi.

This is also how they make money.

After each inspection, the caravan always had to leave something behind in order to pass the area safely.

But recently, as more and more caravans were escorted by the Hanzhong army, Arudo’s business “has also been seriously affected.”

In particular, the style of the Hanzhong Army is really too fierce.

When crossing their territory for supplies, they were even more arrogant, and those who didn’t know thought they were the masters here, which also made Arudo and the others angry.

But when they thought of Hami, who had only been attacked by the Hanzhong army before, even if they had anger in their hearts, they could only endure it abruptly.

“Chief Arudo, there is a caravan of the Ming Dynasty from the southeast, and there are dozens of large teams!”

Just when Arudo was drinking because he couldn’t make money recently, someone under his command hurriedly rushed over to report a message!

“Caravan of the Ming Dynasty? Can there be a Hanzhong army guard? ”

Arudo suddenly frowned.

Now Daming’s caravan and the Hanzhong army are like ancestors, and they are also the people Arudo is most unhappy to see!

“There are about ten cavalry troops guarding, flying the Chinese character banner of the Hanzhong Army!”

The subordinate hurriedly explained what he had seen.

“A large caravan of dozens of cars, just order people to escort like this?”

“This Han Zhongjun really doesn’t take us seriously more and more!”

Arudo was stunned when he heard this, and then poured a large bowl of wine, and snorted coldly without anger.

“Lord Chief, not counting those Hanzhong troops, this big caravan also has two hundred people, what if you supply here and don’t give money?”

The subordinate immediately showed a look of embarrassment.

The reason why he came to report to Arudo was not that he had any unchanged mind, but now that Daming has a caravan guarded by the Hanzhong army, basically the small tribes at the border crossing do not dare to offend, and they have also developed a very arrogant habit, that is, they don’t pay at all after eating!

If it’s a squad of dozens of people, it’s okay, the number of people is large, and the cost of eating and drinking alone is not a small amount!

Once or twice, I put up with it, who can stand it like this?

And they also feel that recently, the gang of soldiers and riffraff of the Hanzhong Army have a more intensifying trend, not only eating and drinking in vain, but also making them unhappy, maybe they will beat you hard, and they can’t find a place to reason!

“Look in my eyes and act! After putting up with it for so long, I can’t endure it anymore! No matter how powerful he is King Han, he can’t bully people, right? Really fight, behind us there is the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and His Majesty Khan! ”

Arudo put another large bowl of wine down, then threw the wine bowl in his hand heavily on the table, and got up directly out of the yurt.

On the other side, Li Jingcheng’s caravan also gradually approached the pastoral area where Arudo was stationed.

And this time the Hanzhong Army led the team by Wang He!

He is also a hundred households now, but according to Geng Qing’s meaning, this time he came out with only a small banner of ten or so people, just to come over and do things!

What a large order of 300,000 taels of silver is completely illusory.

If this batch of goods cannot be stuffed into the hands of these small tribes of Eastern Chagatai, what reason is there to send troops to attack next?

Li Jinglong was miserable by Zhu Li’s calculation this time, and it can be said that he will lose his wife and break the army!

Under Geng Qing’s instruction, Wang He behaved not to mention how arrogant he was.

Along the way, whenever he passed by some small tribes to replenish water and food, he scolded the locals, and instilled the concept that the people of the Western Regions were easy to bully to Li Jinglong’s caravanserai!

After these thousands of miles of long journey, such things happened more, and slowly the people under Li Jinglong began to become arrogant.

Li Jinglong asked them not to put up a stand against the Hanzhong army, but he didn’t say that they were not allowed to bully the people of the Western Regions!

So that night, Li Jinglong’s caravan was directly robbed by the unbearable Turk Special Ministry, and the caravan’s coachmen and hired workers basically died tragically under the swords of Arudo and others, and Wang He took the ten-man small banner to ‘desperately’ rescue several caravan leaders, and then fled to Hamiwei!

Daming Hongwu 26 September 17.

Li Jinglong was fantasizing that when the caravan returned he would be able to see the 300,000 taels of silver in white flowers, Yang Hui’s guards suddenly appeared in his mansion and told him to go to the Hangan Mansion immediately.

Li Jinglong was surprised, but he still followed this guard to the Han King Mansion.

“Ninth Uncle, what happened? Could it be that the Watt Thorn Man called? ”

As soon as I entered the front hall of the palace, I saw Zhu Li and Qin Han, Yang Hui, Geng Qing and other three people in the hall with a livid face, and the atmosphere was depressed beyond description, and Li Jinglong’s heart moved.

“Bring people up!”

Zhu Li drank in a deep voice.

As soon as the words fell, he saw several embarrassed middle-aged men and several soldiers escorting the caravan such as Gan He appear in the hall.

“Lao He? You guys didn’t go to the Western Regions, how…”

When Li Jinglong recognized those middle-aged people, his eyes suddenly widened, and before he could finish asking, his heart suddenly sank!

Shouldn’t it be a problem with your own shipment?! That’s 300,000 taels of silver!

Several leaders of the caravan hurriedly knelt and kowtowed, and began to cry to Li Jinglong about the caravan being robbed in Urumqi.

Of course, they and Wang He together oppressed those herdsmen, beat him to death and did not dare to say it, according to Wang He and others, the truth that came out of their mouths was naturally another matter.

“Am I…”

“Why is it so much to carry it?”

Li Jinglong’s eyes widened suddenly, his caravan was actually robbed by those people from the Western Regions Fanbang?!

“Jiujiang, don’t worry, your king will definitely help you get it back!” Not only that, but they also want to spit it out with interest! ”

Zhu Li assured with a livid face at this time, it seemed that Li Jinglong’s goods were robbed, which also caused him to suffer a great shame.

Li Jinglong looked at Zhu Li’s face that was about to eat people, and immediately snorted.

This made him think of the siege of Hami!

“Uncle Nine, what are you going to do?”

Li Jinglong hurriedly asked.

“Tunbing Hamiwei, we have already ordered the team, Geng Qing will take 10,000 people to Hamiwei, and then find a way to put pressure on the Urumqi side and let them give an explanation.”

“But our Daming’s caravan was robbed and the people were killed, does the imperial court army also have to move?”

“You go with Geng Qing, his 10,000 people alone are not enough, you mobilize some troops and go directly to Hamiwei with Geng Qing first.”

“As long as Dongchagatai doesn’t want to start a war with Daming, he must give an explanation!”

Zhu Li said with a sneer.

“And what if they don’t admit it?”

Li Jinglong

The heart wailed, didn’t this push him into the fire pit?

Fortunately, it is not a direct attack to send troops, but it is just swallowing troops to give pressure, otherwise he must not want to refuse directly!

“Don’t admit it? That king also doesn’t mind building another military fortress in Urumqi! ”

Zhu Li snorted coldly with an expressionless face.

Li Jinglong’s heart was bitter!

Although he is the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi, if there is a war, he still has to listen to the orders of Zhu Li, the lord of the clan, who has the right to control the cheap local garrison in wartime!

“This… If you transfer troops, do you still have to ask the old man for ten times? ”

Li Jinglong’s face was bitter, but he was thinking about how to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang! It was impossible for him not to give news to Zhu Yuanzhang about such a thing!

“The matter is urgent, how should the old man explain it, you will see to it yourself, and the king’s side will also give Ying Tianfu an explanation!”

Zhu Li seems to have calculated it accurately, according to his meaning, anyway, it is to send troops to Hamiwei first, as for the twists and turns of reporting to Ying Tianfu, it should be sent, but you can’t wait until Ying Tianfu has a movement before sending troops, right?

“Besides, you are the general soldier of Shaanxi, what should the old man say, you haven’t counted in your heart?”

Zhu Li reminded thoughtfully.

Li Jinglong cursed secretly in his heart.

If I directly say that my goods were robbed by the Western Regions Fanbang, and then send troops to snatch them back, I must not be directly dragged out and cut by the old man?

This old nine!

Understand that this is a legitimate reason for letting himself help him deceive and make up a force against the Western Regions!

Anyway, the caravan must not be said to be his own, just say that the caravan of the Ming Dynasty was robbed and the people were killed, etc., it is obviously impossible to get the attention of the King of Han now, even if he does not transfer troops, the King of Han will do it himself!

Until this time, Li Jinglong realized that the boat he got on seemed to be not so easy to get down!

But he never thought that he would make a caravan in order to earn some money, and he could also be related to war!

That evening, two urgent letters set off from Hanzhong Mansion and sent them directly to Ying Tianfu!

Early the next morning, Geng Qing and Li Jinglong set out together, leading 12,000 Chao Tiewei and 30,000 imperial court troops out of Tianshui Pass and heading towards Hamiwei!

Within a day, the news that tens of thousands of troops of Daming had left the customs immediately caused a shock in the Western Regions, and even spread it towards the surrounding tile thorns and other places.

Among the palaces of the King of Han.

“Your Highness, Li Jinglong is difficult to ride a tiger now! But do we use this kid or not? ”

With a smile on his face, Qin Han asked Zhu Li.

This Li Jinglong is also really miserable, since he first arrived in Hanzhong Mansion, he has been calculated by his own Wang Ye, and he has been kept in the dark until now!

“Straw bales are indeed straw bales. Li Jinglong, this person, still has the ability, but lacks courage! ”

“He is suitable for fighting a downwind battle, you still have to use it when you change it, you turn back to Geng Qing to wake up, let him put Li Jinglong in the right position!”

“The follow-up imperial court still needs this guy to help us bear it!”

Zhu Li reminded with a chuckle.

“Okay, I’ll ask the military factory to hurry up and get an extra batch of ammunition and artillery for siege and send it to Hamiwei!”

When Qin Han heard this, his spirits were even more lifted.

“It’s true that you are ready to garrison troops over there in Urumqi. Inform Liu Shan that after Urumqi is defeated, he will immediately station the army. His garrison went directly from Hamiwei to Urumqi! ”

“What kind of support do you need, you try to cooperate with him!”

Zhu Li smiled and nodded.

If Hamiwei was the bridgehead for Zhu Li to attack the Western Regions, then Urumqi could be regarded as his real stronghold to control the entire Western Regions!

Urumqi is Liu Shan’s next stage!

Attacking Geng Qing, guarding Liu Shan, and Urumqi’s affairs, he doesn’t need to worry more about Zhu Li for the time being!
