On the southern Huangzhou colony.
"These natives are really annoying." Huang Busan said angrily.
"They keep harassing us. It's not an option to go on like this," Huang Busan said.
"This is indeed not a solution." Huang Busan's staff stood up and said at this time.
"Sir. I have a solution." This time.Huang Busan's staff said.
"Oh. I said Mr. Huang. You are an old man in my family. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't be so silent." Huang Busan said.
"En." The staff member nodded.
"According to my observations in the past few days. I found that the few indigenous tribes who came to rob our colony. It seems that there are not many other tribes. I also found that there are two nearby lands. It is the land we are optimistic about. And Some tribesmen came to exchange things. Some still held ivory. Aboriginal women came to exchange food. Some aboriginals followed those old farmers." Lao Huang said sentence by sentence.
"What do you mean? Tell me quickly." Huang Busan said.
"Sir. I think. Why don't we do this. Our area has more things. There are a lot of things shipped from South Korea and Qin. We might as well exchange these things with the natives. Let's exchange them with the prisoners of war of the natives." Let them fight those native tribes that harass us. So the native tribes fight each other. We can use food. Use wine. Really not. We can use muskets. Gunpowder instead. In this way. They fight each other. We don’t just Is there anything else?" Lao Huang told Huang Busan his idea at this time.
"En." After Huang Busan finished listening.laugh.
"That's an idea. Not bad. Really good." Huang Busan said with a smile.
"To be honest, I really didn't think of it. You will come up with such a good idea. The current colony. It is impossible to gather more people to guard the colony. Otherwise, there will be no such thing." Huang Busan said happily .
"It's a barbarian against a barbarian. This is a good strategy." Huang Busan praised.Currently Huangzhou.Because of the last attack to fight.A lot of manpower was lost.The loss of these militias.Difficult to put together in a short time.The colonies could not spend much money to rearm these militias.The defense of the colony is very weak and empty.This also caused constant harassment by the local indigenous tribes.attack.Grab some finances.Colonial losses were not great.But Huang Busan's position is difficult to preserve.Many local colonial councilors asked Huang Busan to go down.If it weren't for Huang Busan, many members of the parliament would guarantee it.In addition, there are many merchant ships in Huang Busan's hands, which generate a lot of taxes.This matter will be difficult to handle.
but.Fortunately, Huang Busan temporarily suppressed this matter by virtue of his superiority.But Huang Busan knew.If you want to do a good job in the position of governor.Something else must be done.Otherwise, this matter will be difficult to handle.There were many more difficulties facing the colonies.
In a fortress in the southern border of the Western Regions.Wang Ben stood on a high platform and looked around with a telescope.Wang Ben has stepped up his guard.A supply station along the way of Qin State.Towns and cities are on the alert.In order to prevent the sudden attack of the Western Regions.Once attacked.There will definitely be losses.This is the last thing Wang Ben wants to see.
"Sir. Telegram." A second lieutenant quickly stepped forward and said.
"Bring it here." Wang Ben put down the telescope in his hand and took the telegram.
"Sir." The second lieutenant handed Wang Ben a telegram.
Wang Ben quickly took the telegram and looked at it.
"Damn it." Wang Ben scolded directly after reading the telegram.
"They beat them when they say they want to. If they don't want to beat them, they don't beat them. Damn it." Wang Ben cursed.
"I've been so nervous for nothing these days." Wang Ben cursed loudly.
The second lieutenant stood aside and listened to Wang Ben's scolding.Then wait for the command.
"Pass the order down." Wang Ben waved his hand and said.
The second lieutenant on the side took out a pen and paper to record.
"No." Wang Ben waved his hand and stopped.
"The people who ordered us. Continue to be on guard. Don't relax." Wang Ben said.
"Also forward this telegram to the higher-ups. Let the higher-ups know." Wang Ben said.
"Well, that's it for now." Wang Ben said.Wang Ben initially planned to let his people relax.But a thought.The other party stopped.Not to stop myself.The other party may cheat.if it is like this.My own people relax at first.It happened to give the people of the Western Regions a great opportunity.Wang Ben thought about it.Decided to stop.Think it shouldn't be.
So he continued to put his men on the alert.at the same time.He reported the matter to Guan Zhong.Let Guan Zhong decide the specific situation.This matter was beyond his scope.
Just when Wang Ben sent this telegram to Qin Guoguan.Another telegram was also sent to Qin's General Staff.
"Let's have a look." Wang Jian handed the telegram to Yang Duanhe.
"These businessmen are brave enough." Wang Jian patted on the telegram.
Yang Duanhe picked up the telegram and looked.
"My God." Yang Duanhe exclaimed in surprise.
"These businessmen from Eastern Mengzhou are brave enough." Yang Duanhe said.
"They almost planned the attack when our garrison launched an attack." Yang Duanhe said.
"Yes. They are more detailed than we know. Accurate. Otherwise, it would be impossible to act so accurately." Wang Jian continued.
"The most terrible thing is. Their steps. One step faster than ours. This is the step. It made things like this." Wang Jian said.
"They took more than 1 people to the northern mountains of the Huns. There. We can't reach it. The Huns can't go there either." Wang Jian said.
"These merchants have been frequently transporting various weapons recently. There are fewer muskets. But bows and arrows. Armor. There are also saddles. There are more horseshoes." Wang Jian said.
"This shows. This shows that they are arming this tribe and strengthening their armed forces. The purpose of these merchants. We still don't know. This matter must be clarified. If necessary, we can take the first step." Wang Jian said decisively.
"En. This matter. I think. Let the prime minister know. Maybe they have a way. Even if the king knows, maybe he will ask the prime minister for his opinion." Yang Duanhe said.
"En." Wang Jian nodded.
"I see. Tell the king first." Wang Jian said.
"Don't tell the prime minister's mansion." Yang Duanhe asked.
Wang Jian swayed.And did not speak.
"En. All right." Yang Duanhe nodded.
What Wang Jian and Yang Duanhe said was about the fact that the merchants in Eastern Mengzhou intercepted the tribal armed forces.Because things are very strange.Wang Jian ordered Qin Jun's intelligence system to start an investigation immediately.The result of this check.The problem was found immediately.
through border controls.The target is locked at once.A merchant gang from Eastern Mongolia.They didn't develop in the way of trade.But through smuggling.A large number of weapons and equipment were shipped out.In addition, there are many supplies.These transport volumes are very large.Although the other party ships in small batches.But the result was still summarized and discovered by the Qin Army intelligence system.Finally, the results of their analysis were quickly reported to the staff.
After the staff received such a telegram.Wang Jian was greatly surprised.He really didn't think of it.The businessmen of Qin State would actually participate in such a thing.And through the calculation of the time before and after.Wang Jian felt that these merchants were no worse than his commanders.And it seems very decisive.visible.They probably aimed for that in the first place.
In the prime minister's mansion.Naofumi is discussing with the Minister of Transport about building a railway.Meng Yi hurried in.
"Prime Minister." Meng Yi anxiously walked in with two telegrams.
"What's the matter. I'm sweating profusely." Shangwen raised his head and said.
"Look at this. This is a telegram from the governor of Eastern Mengzhou. And this one. This is a telegram from the Eastern Mengzhou Merchants Gang." Meng Yi quickly handed the telegram to Shang Wen.
"I said it before. The businessmen of Eastern Mengzhou were involved in this matter. You probably know it. It's just. Now. The Qin Army's staff is secretly investigating this matter. The governor of Eastern Mengzhou was also born as a businessman. He is sensitive I feel that the staff knows about this matter. No wonder. This matter is too big. Sooner or later, we will know." Meng Yi said.
"What do you mean?" Shang Wen asked after looking at the telegram.
"What I mean is. We need to solve this matter as soon as possible. I have proposed such a plan before. You also proposed the idea of a colonial company. I think. Are we? Push this matter up as soon as possible. Report to the king. If you are late, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous to those businessmen." Meng Yi said worriedly.
"En." Shangwen nodded.
