Chapter 150: Selling Horses

Chapter 150 Horse Trading

----------

Yang Xiong led a few soldiers towards the Goryeo Palace, and soon arrived at the palace. When he entered the meeting hall, he found that the rest of the people had already arrived.

"Grand Governor, I'm late." Yang Xiong said a little ashamed.

"You are going to see your father-in-law. It's normal to be late. How about the two Korean princesses? Are they to your liking?" Wu Dong said with a smile.

A rare trace of red appeared on Yang Xiong's face, and everyone in the meeting hall laughed.

"Grand Governor, they are Wang Yan's daughters after all. Don't worry, I won't be obsessed with them." When everyone stopped laughing, Yang Xiong said hurriedly.

"No matter whose daughter they are, they are all your daughters now. I gave them to you as wives and concubines to make you happier. Don't treat them poorly just because of their status." Wu Dong

smiled.

Yang Xiong is good at everything, but he is a little too withdrawn. Wu Dong doesn't like his subordinates to be like this forever. He hopes that all his subordinates can have their own happy life and have their own families.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief!" Yang Xiong said gratefully.

Until now, although Wu Dong has ascended the throne and became the King of Liang, he still holds the position of the Grand Governor of Liangshan, so many generals have always called him "Grand Governor", and only those Koreans will always call him "King of Liang".

"Grand Governor, what are we mainly discussing today? Is there going to be another war?" Yang Xiong asked excitedly before he sat down in his seat.

"Are we going to start a war? Yes, we are going to start a war. It's just a naval battle, and it's not your turn." Wu Dong said with a smile.

"Ah!" Yang Xiong had a disappointed expression on his face, while Ruan Xiaoqi, Li Jun and others became excited.

"Grand Governor, where are we going to attack?" Ruan Xiaoqi asked hurriedly.

"There's no need to rush this matter. Let's discuss other matters first. After all the matters are discussed, we will discuss this matter in detail." Wu Dong said with a smile.

When the military conference in Liangshan was held, the first thing to discuss was the restoration of Goryeo's economy. Although the local tyrants were attacked and the fields were divided, ordinary people in Goryeo had their own land. This year's agricultural harvest must not be low. But the war

Afterwards, most of Goryeo's industry and commerce were destroyed, and now Goryeo's industry and commerce are in danger of being paralyzed. 4∴8065

"Li Gang, I leave it to you to restore Goryeo's economy. We must vigorously encourage industry and commerce. We can even provide some funds for those Goryeo people who intend to join industry and commerce. Of course, the most important thing is to encourage us Han people to invest in Goryeo's industry and commerce.

, so that we Han people can make money here." Wu Dong said.

"This is natural! Don't worry, Governor, I will definitely do this well," Li Gang said.

"There is one more thing, we need to vigorously build roads." Wu Dong said.

"Building roads? What's the use? Are you recruiting people to build roads?" Li Gang said.

"Building roads is conducive to promoting commerce... When the roads are smooth, business will naturally be closer. As for the conscripts, I don't think there is a need. Aren't there 100,000 Red Guards? Let the 100,000 Red Guards build the roads first.

"Wu Dong said.

Tsuna nodded and agreed.

Wu Dong thought carefully and found that Goryeo was really complicated and had many things going on. During this period, the navy brought in many Han people. Most of these Han people were concentrated in Incheon and Seoul. How to resettle these Han people was also a problem.

Important things.

"Gongsun Sheng, I leave it to you to resettle us Han people. We want to build a new city in Seoul, and I leave this matter to you. Also, I plan to expand Incheon City. You and Li Gang will discuss this matter.

, make a plan. In the future, Incheon City will become the largest port under our Liangshan, and we must not ignore this." Wu Dong said.

"Yes, Grand Governor." Gongsun Sheng wrote down all these and nodded.

"Now we have too many things to do. We also need to expand the shipyard and expand ordnance manufacturing. I want to send a professional candidate to take charge. Does any of you have a suitable candidate and recommend it to me?" Wu Dong

road.

"This..." Everyone lowered their heads and pondered. After thinking for a long time, they couldn't think of any suitable candidates.

"It seems that this matter is still left to the master to handle." Wu Dong secretly said.

Currently, Shishi Li is in charge of the shipyard and craftsman camp. However, as a woman, it is difficult for Li Shishi to stay in the public eye all the time in this era, so Wu Dong wants to find another one. It seems that there is no suitable candidate yet.

"Grand Governor, we can get ships and ordnance from the imperial court, so we don't have to worry too much about this matter ourselves?" Wu Yong said cautiously.

"This is not possible. Sooner or later, the imperial court will discover our true identity. Will we still be able to get ships and ordnance from them by then? So we have to strengthen our own production." Wu Dong said.

Liangshan's occupation of Goryeo is so important. The Jin Kingdom already knows about it, and it will probably spread to the Liao Kingdom soon, and then to the Song Dynasty, which may bring more ships and ordnance." Hua Rong said.

"Well, that's the truth. Wu Yong, you and Zhu Gui go to Bianliang again, and you must dig out more ships and ordnance from the imperial court. I will bring you a lot of gold and silver, and you can bribe

Those courtiers, bribed those eunuchs. This may be the last time we get something from the court," Wu Dong said.

"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I promise to complete this task well." Wu Yong laughed loudly. To be honest, he missed Bianliang a little. It was a place where he made great achievements and may leave a name in history in the future. There.

, and Yang Jian, a "good friend" is here.

"Now let's talk about the naval battle. In fact, the naval battle was not just to occupy the land, but to clear the sea lanes and prepare for the horse trade." Wu Dong said.

"Trading horses?" Everyone suddenly became curious.

This time, Goryeo was conquered and 30,000 good horses were obtained from the Goryeo people. The number of cavalry was expanded. But relatively speaking, the cavalry was still too few. So Liangshan needed to sell horses, and Liangshan is now in Goryeo, thousands of miles away.

The first place the Great Wall entered was the Kingdom of Jin, and it was extremely difficult to sell horses. Everyone was now very curious, not knowing what method Wu Dong used to sell horses, or what the relationship between horse selling and clearing the sea lanes was.

"Hua Rong and I discussed this matter together. Hua Rong, you come and talk about it," Wu Dong said.

Hua Rong stood up and came to the map hanging in the meeting hall. Now this map is not just a map of Goryeo, but a huge map including Jin Kingdom, Liao Kingdom, Song Dynasty, Annan, Japan and other places. It almost occupies the entire area.

Knowing the location of the entire wall, this is the future target of Liangshan, and Goryeo is just the first step.

"According to the results of the discussion between the Grand Governor and I, we need to take a boat to the north, land from the far north, and then go to the Meng Ancient Grassland to sell horses from the Meng Ancient Grassland. Duan Jingzhu has been notified that he is already there.

We have prepared a large number of war horses, as long as we go there and bring them back, it will be fine," Hua Rong said.

Hua Rong held a wooden stick in his hand and pointed out all the locations. The so-called "Ultra North" refers to the north of the Xing'an Mountains, which is extremely desolate and almost uninhabited. And the Meng Ancient Grassland

It refers to the current outer Meng ancient area. Inner Meng ancient area is still the territory of the Khitan people and does not yet belong to the ancient Meng people.

"Is this path feasible?" Luan Tingyu asked in disbelief.

"It's feasible. We have already sent people to explore that road. We set out in February and just came back yesterday, so we held a military aircraft meeting today to focus on this issue." Hua Rong said.

"If it's feasible, that would be great. From now on we can have more horses!" Luan Tingyu said excitedly.

"Yes! That's great!" The rest of Yang Xiong and others also became excited.

Through the Goryeo War and contact with the nv real person, everyone in Liangshan realized the power of cavalry. If this road is feasible, then Liangshan will have a steady stream of war horses in the future.

"However, there are still many dangers on that road and it is not easy to walk on. We have to send a strong general to go there, clear the road when encountering mountains, build bridges when encountering rivers, and become familiar with that road." Wu Dong said.

"Grand Governor, Commander of the Legion, I am willing to lead the troops to walk that road, and I will definitely bring the horses back!" Yang Xiong suddenly stood up and said loudly.

"Grand Governor, I am willing to go too!" Luan Tingyu also stood up in a hurry and said.

"Grand Governor, why don't you let me go?" Sun Li, the commander of Liangshan's new Fifth Army, also stood up and looked at Wu Dong with longing eyes and said.

"As for who is going to sell horses, you, the Koryo Army, need to decide for themselves and then report it to me. However, before selling horses, the sea channel must be cleared. This sea area is not safe enough and there are many pirates. In addition, we are also planning to clear the nearby

The islands are all occupied, especially the two large islands in the north, Kushima and Hokkaido. These two large islands can become our transit points for horse trading, and we can even raise horses on them. These are things that the navy has to do.

"Wu Dong said.

Kudao is located in the far north. It was already part of China's territory during the Tang Dynasty. It was called "Kuyue" at that time and later "Ku". By the end of the Tang Dynasty, China had lost contact with it. When the Jin Dynasty became stronger

At that time, they also occupied that territory. Later, when the ancient Meng people became powerful, they also occupied Ku Island. Ku Island can be said to be the largest island in China in the past, with an area twice that of Taiwan. Now Ku Island has not been occupied by the Jin people.

Occupy, there are some aborigines above, the number is very small, it is very easy to occupy there.

As for Hokkaido, it is not Japanese territory yet. The Japanese did not land on Hokkaido until the 16th century. The aborigines of Hokkaido today are the Ezo tribe, also known as "mao people".

Their hair is very long, and they are the race of people with the most dense hair found in the world. The number of hairy people is not large, it is estimated that there are at most a hundred thousand, and it is very easy to occupy this place.

The two islands are both very cold and have a lot of vegetation. They should be suitable for raising horses, but everything needs experimentation.

"Your navy will come up with a charter and set out tomorrow to clean up the sea channel and occupy these two big islands." Wu Dong said.
