Chapter [-] The crisis is approaching

Hukou. (⊙﹏⊙⊙﹏⊙)

It is located on a branch of the Yangtze River, heading west along the main road of the Yangtze River to Jingzhou.To the south, it passes through Panyang Lake and goes south to Lujiang, and it can also approach Jingzhou.

Therefore, this Hukou is a very important checkpoint. In normal times, there are navy troops stationed there to defend the Jingzhou army.But merchant ships on the Yangtze River have never been searched, let alone seized. [

But at this moment, there are dozens of large ships standing on the river at the mouth of the lake, checking the passing merchant ships.Looking around, not only the Chen family's boat was intercepted, but the boats of other merchants were also intercepted.

At this moment, the Patriarch of the Chen family, Chen Jian, is aboard a Jiangdong naval warship, arguing with a Jiangdong general.

"This general, the Yangtze River is an important way to connect things. It is understandable if the tax burden is increased, but this blockade. This blockade will cause heavy losses in Jiangdong."

Chen Jian said to the general with a look of excitement.

But the general glanced at Chen Jian slowly, and said: "This is the order of Marquis Wu. I don't care what your reasons are, and I don't care what the blockade means to Jiangdong and how much it will cost. I only obey Wu. According to Hou's order, blockade the Yangtze River. You can pass by, but you must leave the boats full of salt behind."

"You." Chen Jian was angry and anxious when he heard the words. He was angry because it was really a scholar who met a soldier, and he couldn't explain why.The urgent thing is to drop the salt.

This though his ships also had the rest of their native products and could continue westward for trade.But table salt is the bulk.You know, Jingzhou has a population of more than two million.

But Jingzhou does not produce salt, which is of course cheaper for merchants.Therefore, every time a caravan is dispatched, salt is a very important cargo.

Now it is said that the blockade is blocked, and I don't know if it is January or a few years.If it's a little better in January, at most it's because I put down the salt this time.It's over after a while, but if it's a few years.

This loss is huge.

Unreasonable, really unreasonable.Of course, Chen Jian didn't know about Sun Ce's clever strategy, so he kept scolding his mother in his heart, but Chen Jian didn't dare to scold these words.

What is in front of you is the army, which makes no sense at all.If he really scolded, it would not only be a matter of being detained, but his head might also be lost.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Jian forced a smile on his face, raised his fist at the general and said, "In this case, I will abandon the salt. Please let the general go."

"En." The general showed a look in his eyes that he knew this before, so he hummed.Immediately, he turned around and said to the soldiers next to him: "Go with him to investigate, you must be careful, you can't put a grain of salt in Jingzhou."

"Promise." The soldier promised, then raised his head and glanced at Chen Jian.

The look in the general's eyes made Chen Jian feel annoyed for a while, but he still managed to bear it, and walked out with the soldier silently.

This Jiangdong is the world of Marquis Wu. Who can stop Marquis Wu from doing what he wants to do?The general looked at the direction in which Chen Jian was leaving, feeling very disapproving.

Immediately afterwards, the general thought a little excitedly, the salt road is short, and Lu Su will run out of salt soon.
