Chapter 844: Wagang Goes on the Expedition
Now Wagang also belongs to the Youzhou business district, and it is impossible to attack its allies.
And those who did not cooperate with Youzhou became another alliance, and it seemed that Li Yuan was the leader, and it was still in Youzhou when the consensus was reached.
Wagang's expedition was changed and had to be arranged separately.
Luoyang, Li Yuan has been managing interests with various forces, and his only purpose is to truly occupy Luoyang.
For this, he had to use some means.
He knows what has happened recently, and doing things to Wagang has given him hope, especially after the incident of Tang Bi, which has made many forces a little afraid.
Tang Bi had 50,000 soldiers and horses, and all of them were contributed to Wagang, for which Luo Tiemu and Zhu Can proposed a joint defense countermeasure.
After Li Yuan learned about it, he immediately felt that this was an opportunity, so he took the initiative to undertake the matters of this meeting.
The result of the discussion was that they had to be united in the face of Wagang.
Especially after Wagang established friendly relations with Youzhou, people of all strength felt more and more pressure.
It happened that Li Shimin of Penglai wrote a letter to him and took out Penglaicheng's reserves in exchange for a large amount of iron ore.
In Li Shimin's hands, iron ore naturally cannot be sold to others.
When it came to Li Yuan, the situation was completely different, in order to win over and establish a good relationship, after they discussed joint defense, Li Yuan used the benefits of selling armor to firmly tie the relationship between the kings.
Li Yuan became a seller of several powerful armor, and the family used iron ore to exchange a large number of preferential materials from his son, and used the money earned from the sale to purchase preferential armor.
It's really a good business.
Looking at Li Shimin again, it seems that he did not lose money, and the price at which the iron ore was sold to Li Yuan was basically principal-saving. And Li Yuan is relatively defeated.
However, for this reason, as long as the forces in the circle of joint defense are enlisted, all the forces must survive according to the rules they have set.
The benefits to the Li family are obvious.
Li Yuan is not short of money, what he needs is to win over the relationship between all parties.
After making these interest exchanges, his control of Luoyang increased a few points, and many forces had to rely on the protection of the Li family.
The benefits are rich enough, and Youzhou can get it.
Li Shimin was quite depressed at this time, and the iron ore of his three thousand Xuanjia soldiers was sent to Luoyang by Li Yuan in a word.
This is the reality of being a son.
The benefits are obvious, just take this Nanyang King Zhu Can and Shadala King have started trade with Penglai.
Li Yuan is a person who dares to do things, and he never suffers.
The agreement on joint defense naturally includes a lot of cooperation projects, and trade has now become the mainstream, and Li De of Youzhou can sign an agreement with the leaders of the forces, and they can do the same.
Anyway, it is all about ensuring interests, and no one will object to the current affairs of the great enemy involving themselves.
After Li De's operation, his control of Luoyang increased by a few points, and he exchanged his interests for the authority of city defense.
The kings benefited, Li Yuan paid some money, and both parties were very happy.
However, Li Yuan knew that if he wanted to completely control Luoyang, the final plan must be to recover the benefits distributed by the taxes, otherwise he would be busy working in vain if he could not get the benefits from controlling Luoyang.
The cold winter is coming, and the construction of Wagang City is no longer a big construction, but has begun to decorate the interior, which is specially flowed out to do the work in winter.
The purpose is not to affect the construction period, the weather is very affecting the progress, in order not to delay the project to choose to build the exterior of the house first, and wait for the winter to carry out the interior decoration.
Winter time can also be used.
After saving a lot of manpower, the crusade was put on the agenda.
Wagang directly dispatched 60,000 elites this time to send troops this winter.
Winter battles are not very common, and at this time all the forces are recuperating, after all, the world of the Sui State is not so chaotic that the four solar terms are at war.
So this winter's surprise was started by the Wagang soldiers.
Zhu Can, the king of Nanyang, was already enjoying himself at this time, and he was enjoying the singing and dancing in his own territory in winter.
For his rule, he doesn't have to spend too much thought, and it can be said that he lives a good life that most people dream of.
This state is already the norm, not only him, but many forces are like this in this season.
What can be done in the cold, even business will be affected by the cold winter.
Everyone is in the same state, but they are not so vigilant.
The time chosen by Wagang to send troops also surprised Li De, and it was not snow clearing in winter.
It is important to know that padded jackets have not yet been thoroughly popularized, and it is easy for soldiers to fight in winter to cause non-combat attrition, and the transportation of materials will be seriously affected.
Li De and the lieutenants were very concerned about the results of the battle in Wagang.
At the same time, it is also a warning to them, although winter is more suitable for cat winter, but there will always be some cards that do not follow common sense, so people have to guard against it.
After Shan Xiongxin and the others arrived at Zhu Can's territory, the tactic they adopted was to attack the cities and counties occupied by Zhu Can first.
As for the cities and counties they occupy, they have learned that the garrison will not exceed 3,000 people, mainly because the number of soldiers accommodated by the cities and counties is very limited, and most of them only need the taxes of the cities and counties and are not sincere in developing business.
This leads to the fact that if the city and county are lost, it will not have much impact on them, anyway, there are soldiers and horses, if someone comes to attack them, it will be good to fight back.
The pattern of the head snake is like this.
If they really want to occupy the city and run them, they don't have the talents who can run them, and if they mess up, they may be dragged down by the people in the city.
It is not so easy to manage a city and county, that is, you want to take advantage without taking responsibility, and the main role of the garrison is to prevent foreign enemies on the one hand, and to prevent the people from fleeing on the other.
Is it easy to be an anti-king, not to mention that you have to send people to guard the city and county.
The plan given by Xu Maogong was to clear out Zhu Can's soldiers who occupied the city and county first, and the siege of the city must be besieged, and before that, people could go to the city to prepare in the form of a caravan.
Continue to stage what they are good at.
Especially in winter, the soldiers stationed in the city defense stand guard on the city wall very little, and they all adopt the form of changing guards.
And the time for changing the guard is very short, just for fear of freezing people.
After grasping this news, it was easy for the people of Wagang to do things, and they solved a city and county in one day without accidents.
All the 3,000 soldiers stationed there were taken.
Zhu Can didn't know that just when he was enjoying the song and dance, the city and county he occupied became the territory of Wagang.
Xiao Miao, who cooperated with Dig Gang, directly sent someone to take over, and directly sent 20,000 people to garrison, this is the cooperation between them.
A city in exchange for a large amount of money.
Xiao Milling is equivalent to spending money to buy cities and counties, and the two sides will also carry out commercial cooperation after pacifying Zhu Can, which is as simple as that.
