When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 415: Shu Dagu’s strategy: Borrow the corpse to bring back the soul (Part [-])

A dozen cars were driving in the front row, followed by two hundred people. They quickly left Kuzhai, hoisted the "Qi Fang" flag, and headed northwest.

In the shelter, the only traffic thoroughfare, the local Duozi Houweijun looked at the team of two hundred people without much change in his expression.

The so-called "many children" are also called "many children".

It is a small settlement formed by the combination of three or more sub-surnames that are distantly related to the royal family.

More similar to the state of early clan communes.

Communism and symbiosis tend to be more equal in distribution.

However, this tribe has recently been dying out in the sanctuary.

The reason is that the land near the refuge has matured, agricultural technology has advanced, individual production capabilities have been improved, and clan communes have gradually been replaced by family communes.

Private ownership is booming.

Of course, it is limited to the hinterland of the Central Plains and the southern section of the Taihang Mountains.

It has been developed for a long time, has a large population, and has sufficient ability to communicate with each other.

Anyway, after seeing Qi Fang's motorcade, the local leader came to ask them if there was anything they could trade.

Shu Dagu glanced at this person and asked Tong to negotiate.

Tong is very proficient in the Shang language.

After the two parties communicated, Tong asked them about the map. Then under the other party's guidance and comparing the map, he easily found a fork in the road, then turned around and continued to Liyi.

It's autumn now.

The temperature has obviously dropped a lot, and the dew is heavy in the morning, but at noon, the autumn tiger will show off its power again.

After getting the route to Liyi, they found a place to rest with no village in front and no store in the back. Some people went hunting, and more people ate dry food.

The old witch still provided enough food for them to reach their destination.

"We can reach Li Yi in about three days, but after passing Li Yi, we will reach Jian Di's territory. The next call from Qi Fang may not be useful."

Tong looked at Shu Dagu with a hint of sadness.

"Just pass Li Yi."

Chu Dagu was energetic and full of energy: "After passing Li Yi, we sold our cars and exchanged them for some weapons, cattle and horses. Then we immediately entered Jian Di's territory and started setting fires. Our purpose is very clear, to disrupt the layout of the merchants in Dayi in the south. , to create conditions for Qu Nan to go south."

"But...I'm worried that I won't be able to get out."

"It's okay. If you walk along the river, you will always find somewhere to go."

Shu patted Tong's shoulder with his big one-armed hand: "I'm telling you, why are you looking forward and backward? Don't you want to think about what's going to happen next? If you burn out the fire, what's left is us controlling the entire battle!

Death is not easy, and we have more tasks to do next.

Especially maps, maps of various places in Shanxi.

Therefore, time is tight and the task is heavy. If you can't succeed in one attack, you should escape immediately.

You can't be obsessed with fighting, and you can't be greedy for merit, even though... there isn't much merit to speak of.

Okay, have a good rest and start again at dawn. "

"Okay." Tong finally said no more nonsense.

Although I felt uneasy in my heart, I did what Chu Dagu said, if you can't succeed in one attack, run away immediately. Don't be greedy, just destroy.

……

Three days later, Li Yi.

Li Sui, the king of Li Yi, had just gotten up from his concubine.

He has a gray beard and a shaggy beard, but he doesn't look old. He can still work hard every day, which is great.

As a result, I just got up to wash up, but before I finished, I heard someone coming to report: "A caravan coming from outside claiming to be Wang Zixun's subordinate Qi Fang, they came to us to exchange some weapons and cattle and sheep."

"Qi Fang? Didn't they just come here?"

Li Sui looked a little weird.

"They are not the same group." The visitor shook his head slightly, "But most of them have jade on their bodies. They look more like nobles. Maybe they are troops drawn from the east and ready to support Yize."

That makes sense. Li Sui nodded.

Yize, which is today's Yangcheng County, Shanxi Province, is a strategic place that the Qilong family and Jian Di compete for.

Of course, it was also the place where the Shang clan was preparing to kill them.

The Qilong family's territory in Yize must be removed to cut off the Qilong family's rear food support.

Li Yi and close to Yize are also one of the main attacks this time.

However, Li Sui did not participate in the expedition because he was old, and it was his sons who went to fight.

However, the nobles from Qi Fang still need to meet.

Thinking of this, Li Sui left the city.

Shu Dagu looked strangely at Li Sui, who came to pick him up in person.

"Haha! What is your name? I am Li Sui, and we are all called Li Hou."

"Shu Valley." Shu Dagu called himself with a Dongyi accent.

This was learned temporarily and is very awkward.

However, Li Sui didn't feel that something was wrong. The reason was that Dongyi was just complicated, and it was good that Shu Dagu could speak elegant words. There was no need to go into details.

However, Li Sui took a look at their attire. Although they didn't have much armor, it could be seen from the car that they were all wearing armor.

It should have been transported in the car and not worn.

"Your Majesty, are you here to exchange cattle and sheep? Are you going to the Yize battlefield?"

When Shu Dagu heard this, he immediately realized something, and then pretended to be disapproving and said: "What's the situation with Yize? If I need to intervene, I will rush over immediately."

"That's right, you just arrived and don't know the situation."

Li Sui had no doubt that he was there, so he thought for a moment and said: "The battle situation in Yize is not very good. The Jian Di family is the main attacker, but there is a group of Jian Di who are holding us back.

Our Li family has limited manpower. Qi Fang had come to the caravan before, but he only came to buy animal skins and didn't know what he was doing. "

Animal skins...

Chu's cheeks twitched slightly. He didn't expect Qi Fang to buy Wang Zi Xun animal skins for several years.

"Most of them prepare leather armor and help the king appease the Chilong clan."

"That's it." Li Sui was stunned and almost forgot that the Chilong clan, which was mainly attacking the southern battlefield this time, was recruited from the north by King Shang and had to provide a lot of supplies every year.

Then it’s normal to need a lot of leather.

After all, war consumes a lot of skin.

So, while he was thinking, Shu Dagu asked and made insinuations about Yize's situation.

When he learned that the Rong clan in the north had only more than a thousand people on the Yize battlefield, his expression became a little more serious.

"I heard from travelers from the Yourong clan that Xinyi and Tufang in the north are working together to challenge the Yourong clan.

Therefore, the Yourong clan prepared to deal with it early, leaving only more than a thousand people in Yize. Then most of the remaining troops were mobilized to the core of the Yourong clan, Beitang Yi (now Taiyuan, originally Tang Yi, Because it has the same name as Tang Yi in Baoding, it is called Beitang Yi). "

Li Sui didn't hide much about his exchange with Shu Dagu.

It made Shu Dagu a little surprised.

However, I don’t know whether the news is true or not, so I’ll just let Tong check it later.

But at least, one of the mission targets is now known - Beitang Yi.

Afterwards, Li Sui invited Chu Dagu to have a drink, but Shu did not refuse, and everything behaved as usual.

Of course, after finishing the drink, Chu Dagu gave him a jade pendant, which made Li Sui very happy, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Chu Dagu.

This is the demeanor only a noble can have!
  Also, the jade pendant is so beautiful and exquisite.

So, he stayed in Liyi for three days, collected some weapons, cattle and horses, and then left.

Before leaving, Li Sui reluctantly walked ten miles away before turning back.
