Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 332
Who is to blame for Yue Fei's death?

In the past days, Liu Yi really didn't have the heart to study this issue, but today, because of chatting with Wu Lin, Liu Yi fell into deep thought.

However, this is really not the time to think about these issues, just because Wu Lin is next to him, making noise like five hundred sparrows. The messenger who spoke has passed!"

"What do you call the most eloquent Chengxuan envoy? Brother, you are mocking me!" Wu Lin looked wronged, as if he was really embarrassed by Liu Wei's words.

"How can you be ironic about you? Do you think I have that spare time? Ah, Hanzhong is coming soon. Let's recruit in Hanzhong this time?"

What Liu Wei said was purely off topic, recruiting from Hanzhong?How many young and strong people can be recruited in Hanzhong City now?The last time Hanzhong City was captured by Nasa Liyao, which directly turned Hanzhong City into an empty city, and among the refugees formed, almost all young and strong people who had nothing to worry about became elite soldiers under Liu Wei's command. At this time, Wu Lin dared to go , Guaranteed to be nothing.

Although Liu Yi knew the details, he didn't intend to tell Wu Lin in detail. He didn't know that the original Wu Lin nodded when Liu Yi asked, "Didn't I meet brother in Hanzhong last time? Hey , Hanzhong is my treasure land of geomantic omen, I have to try my luck no matter what!"

"Then let's go!" Liu Wei smiled lightly, but didn't make sense.

As a result of the two going to Hanzhong City this time, Wu Lin came out of Hanzhong City with a dark face a month later.

"Hey, it seems that someone's luck is not very good?"

Riding the horse unhurriedly, Liu Wei walked beside Wu Lin with a smile on his face, facing the gentle spring breeze, looking at Wu Lin from the corner of his eyes from time to time.

Wu Lin also knew that Liu Wei was looking at him, and knew that Liu Wei was clearly mocking him. Unfortunately, he didn't even have the intention to distinguish himself. In a whole month, he only recruited 100 people, and at least half of them were fake. , Wu Lin really wanted to die.

"Let's go to Yizhou!"

"Yizhou?"

Hearing Wu Lin's words, Liu Yi quit immediately.Are you kidding me, Yizhou, that's his Liu Wei's territory, if Wu Lin is allowed to go to Yizhou to recruit people, then where will he recruit Liu Wei in the future.Immediately, Liu Wei said with a straight face: "Tang Qing, you can go to Yizhou, but you can only go to visit relatives, and you can't mention recruitment!"

"Why?"

Wu Lin was taken aback for a moment, sure that Liu Yi was not joking, and suddenly wondered.

"Why? You really don't know, you kid, or are you just pretending? Your elder brother and I live in Yizhou. Thousands of people depend on my brother and me to support them. If you recruit all the young and strong in Yizhou, my brother and I will take care of them." Who do you do business with?"

"What does your business have to do with my recruiting soldiers?"

Wu Lin rolled his eyes, and he felt that Liu Wei must have lost his head, otherwise how could he say such a thing.

"Boy, come here!"

At this time, there were many people around, and Liu Wei didn't want to make a sound. He simply pulled Wu Lin's horse rein, and the two of them walked to the side of the road and stopped. After that, Liu Wei said, "Do you think that those I led in the court Salary, can support the whole family?"

Wu Lin has no doubts about this matter at all, the salary given by the court is simply impossible!

"This is the end! The salary given by the imperial court can't support people. My brother has worked hard for your sister-in-law and nephew. No, it's hard to find a way to do business. Although it's somewhat illegal, but The ones who entrapped him were also from Tubo, and they have nothing to do with our court, so you won't report on your brother, right?"

"A not-so-legal route? It has something to do with Tubo? Wow, my brother, are you smuggling?"

"Hey! You kid is also smart sometimes, smuggling, it's not counted, it's just exchanging what you have, what you have and what you don't!"

"Go, I don't believe it! What is exchanged with each other, smuggling is smuggling. In this world, I am afraid that only Yue Zhizhi's army does not smuggle. Let me tell you quietly, my brother also smuggled back then! This is nothing, everyone They all know it well, turn one eye and close the other, as long as they don't make a fuss, no one will meddle in other people's business like a dog!"

"Really?"

Liu Wei really didn't know about the situation Wu Lin mentioned. He never expected that even Wu Jie had done smuggling. However, based on the territory Wu Jie actually controlled, Liu Wei estimated that Wu Jie's smuggling The direction is very likely to be Xixia, not Tubo.

"Of course it's true. Otherwise, where do you think our Wu family's money came from? Could it be that my brother is still corrupt and accepting bribes?" , he would have no objection, but Wu Lin respected any of his eldest brothers.

"Well, I didn't say that your brother is corrupt and accepting bribes, but with your brother's current status, there is really no need to engage in crooked ways, and even smuggling should be disdainful. But brother, I won't do it , The little salary of the imperial court, hey, it is far less than one-tenth of the profit of smuggling, this business has big profits and high risks, otherwise, where do you think my soldiers and horses come from?"

Because Liu Yi saw Wu Lin as pleasing to the eye, so he also wanted to expose some of his background and see what kind of reaction Wu Lin would have.

"Wow? I said brother, do you want to be so awesome! Could it be that your wolf cavalry are also supported by smuggling?"

"Nonsense! I don't rely on smuggling to make a living, so how do I make a living? Say no more, in a word, Yizhou is not allowed!"

"Brother, if I don't go to Yizhou, where else can I go to recruit?" Wu Lin had a bitter face, although he was a missionary with a higher official rank than Liu Wei, but in private, he really didn't dare not listen to Liu Wei's words.

"Then I don't care! By the way, since the next stop is Yizhou, I'll go home to see your sister-in-law first. Whether you are Jiading or Yibin, I don't care. I will stay at home and accompany you." You two sister-in-laws!"

Speaking of sister-in-law, Wu Lin's eyes lit up again, and he said in a low voice: "Brother, I haven't seen my sister-in-law yet, why don't I take this opportunity to meet my sister-in-law too?"

"Get out! What good knowledge does sister-in-law have? I don't mind if you want to visit my house, but in a word, you are not allowed to recruit soldiers!"

After the two made an agreement, the next stop was Yizhou. With Wu Lin's temperament, Liu Wei was really not worried that he would see anything.

After the group arrived at Liujiazhuang, Wu Lin naturally received a high-level reception, but Liu Wei sent someone back first to pick up some things that Wu Lin shouldn't see, and Wu Lin only stayed in Liujiazhuang for five days. , was drunk by Liu Wei for three consecutive nights, patted his dizzy head and agreed to Liu Wei staying at home, and he went to recruit troops and left Yizhou by himself.

Liu Wei was relieved to send Wu Lin out of the Yizhou border all the time.

After returning to Chengdu County, Liu Wei immediately went to discuss with Gao Jin. It seems that the pace of preparing food and military pay must be accelerated.

According to Liu Wei's estimation, from now on, within five years, we must prepare enough food, grass and military pay for at least one hundred thousand troops. This task, in Gao Jin's opinion, is almost impossible to complete.

However, Liu Wei is not worried. Although searching the whole Bashu may not be able to collect so much food and grass, and earning money is not so easy, but Gao Jin does not know that in Liu Wei's plan, he is really allowed to search Yes, not Bashu.

In Bashu, most of the places are still inhabited by Han people. Of course, Liu Wei will not take too drastic measures against his fellow tribes, but Liu Wei will not be polite in the areas of the Tubo tribes.

In Tubo, because it is still a slave society, although under this social system, social productivity cannot be compared with the feudal system of the Southern Song Dynasty, but the degree of concentration of wealth is even worse.In other words, in those tribes in Tubo, the slaves completely lost their human rights, but the leaders of those tribes were all rich!

More importantly, Tubo is rich in some valuable minerals, such as gold and jade. These things are often used as personal decorations in Tubo, and they do not have much effect except to show the dignity of the status.

But if Liu Wei is allowed to control these minerals, it means that future military expenses will be guaranteed.

Bashu and Tubo, these two places, because of the different social systems, have very little communication with each other, otherwise Liu Wei would not tell Wu Lin that he is doing smuggling, but if Liu Wei can finally master all these things at the same time If there are two places, they can exchange what they need with each other, which can generate huge profits.

And what Liu Wei needs Gao Jin to do is to do business in the past, relying on Li Shifu's strong military power, invade Tubo through business models, and finally control Tubo from both economic and military aspects.

Liu Wei was not at all afraid of the backlash from those tribes in Tubo.If he entered Tubo in the name of the Song Dynasty military from the beginning, he would inevitably force the scattered tribes of Tubo to fight against the enemy.However, adopting the form of mercenaries allows those Tubo tribal leaders to taste the sweetness, and gradually get used to it in the end. At the same time, it also allows the army to adapt to the special geographical environment of Tubo. When everything is mature, Tubo, that is Liu Wei's cutting board piece of fat.

It has to be said that Liu Wei's plan is huge. When Gao Jin asked him what to do if someone in Tubo sees through this conspiracy in the future, Liu Wei's eyes showed a cold look, and he spit out a Literally, "Kill!"

Even Gao Jin is also a martial artist, when he heard this word, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, "Brother-in-law, that's life!"

"Don't worry! But for that kind of tribal leader, if you cut off ten heads, nine and a half of them will not be wronged!"

Going home from Gao Jin, Liu Wei had just entered the gate of Liujiazhuang when he saw Yang Zaixing and Xiaoyu hurrying over. They came all the way, Yang Zaixing saw Liu Wei and said, "Godfather, go home quickly, there is a beautiful woman coming I'm looking for you!"
