Chapter 0580: The Deal Is Done
Yang Da didn't seem to be interested in the sale of equipment, in his eyes, how much money the equipment was sold was, it was Yang Qi's ability.
Yang Da sat at the table and muttered, "Seventh brother, you said that Li Jiqian really wants to go to war with Ye Qiganbo?" ”
Yang Qi nodded solemnly and said, "The two tribes are on the same page, and there is constant friction. And they are all gathering strength in secret, and a big war is inevitable. ”
Yang Da nodded thoughtfully and said, "Are you going to send Uncle Wang Gui to lead troops to support the Yeqi tribe?" ”
Yang Qi said with a smile: "The wild beggar tribe is still at a disadvantage relatively speaking. If we don't help them, they are likely to lose in the hands of Li Jiqian. ”
Yang Da shook his head and said: "I don't care who lives or who dies, I just want to ask, do we want to intervene?" ”
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, and looked at Yang Da with a strange look in his eyes.
Yang Da was a little uncomfortable by Yang Qi's strange eyes, and he explained: "Now, more than half of the soldiers and horses under our command are still recruits, and they have been trained a lot.
You also know that only a soldier who has been trained will become a real elite soldier. I also hope that the soldiers and horses under my command can become stronger. ”
When Yang Qi heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't explain, don't you think your explanation seems very pale and weak?" ”
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Yang Da coughed violently to hide his embarrassment.
Yang Qi said bluntly: "Our brothers are together, and there is no need to hide a lot of words, just tell me, have you fallen in love with the place where other people's party items are?" ”
Under the gaze of Yang Qi and Yang Wu, Yang Da said with a slight embarrassment: "Suizhou ......"
Suizhou, that is, the later generations of rice fat and Suide generation.
Nowadays, Suizhou is also a place where soldiers must fight.
Yang Qi looked at Yang Da with some astonishment, and said, "Big brother, why did you remember to want Suizhou?" Suizhou is one of the few important places in Li Jiqian's hands.
Moreover, Suizhou is the closest to the Zhe family, and I think my uncle has regarded Suizhou as a cyst.
Once the party civil war broke out, the uncle's first choice would definitely be Suizhou. ”
Yang Da said frankly: "I don't think so much, I only know that Suizhou has elite soldiers." With the source of soldiers in Suizhou, the soldiers and horses under our command can become much stronger. ”
Yang Qi laughed and said: "Big brother, you have a wrong idea, the so-called elite soldiers from a certain place are only because of the geographical location, or because they are on the border, which causes them to have to survive in the struggle, and then evolve into a fierce folk custom."
In fact, in essence, the difference is not very big.
People anywhere, as long as they are properly trained, can become rare elite soldiers. ”
Yang Da actually understands this truth.
It's just that compared to spending a lot of time carefully training elite soldiers, it is better to directly recruit elite soldier embryos.
In itself it's a shortcut.
Perhaps, it was the smart Yang Da who had already sensed that something big would happen in the future, so he spared no effort to strengthen his forces now.
Yang Qi could roughly guess a little bit of Yang Da's thoughts, but he didn't break it.
In fact, what he essentially did was actually what Yang Da wanted to do now.
It's just because of the difference in vision that Yang Qi's layout is far bigger and more long-term than Yang Daneng thought.
"Let's not talk about Suizhou, let's talk about Dongshengzhou, and the mountain where the good water river is located."
Yang Qi said confidently: "If what I expected is not bad, Ye Qi Ganbo will finally agree to my request." And after the Datong Army led by Wang Guishu entered the party, it was the place where the two sides handed over the area where Dongshengzhou was located.
There are more party members in Dongsheng Prefecture, although we can easily get Dongsheng Prefecture from the party members. But that doesn't mean we can digest Dongshengzhou anytime soon.
Therefore, for a long time, Dongsheng Prefecture will need to be manned.
In particular, there are two canyons including the Kosui River. ”
Haoshuichuan, which is now in the Great Song Dynasty, is just an ordinary place name.
But in the later Great Song Dynasty, it was a permanent sad place.
The shame it received, even after a thousand years, is still engraved in people's hearts.
What Yang Qi wants to do is very simple, he just wants to hold this place that will become a national shame in his own hands.
At the same time, he took advantage of this to hold the throat of the party members.
After the good water river, almost all of the land of the Dangxiang clan is a vast plain, and the river is flat.
As long as Yang Qi grasps the good water river tightly, it is equivalent to having an innate advantage.
Anytime and anywhere, you can pass through the good water river and attack the party.
Ye Qi Gu Hun saw this, so he didn't let go.
If it were to be changed to another place, Ye Qi Guguhun probably agreed a long time ago.
"Let the Datong Army garrison in Haoshuichuan?"
Yang Da asked tentatively.
Since Yang Qi raised the question of good water and river, Yang Da understood Yang Qi's intention in raising this question.
That's who is going to be stationed.
Yang Wu nodded and said: "The Fuxing Army wants to garrison Fuxing Pass, the Ranger Army wants to patrol the border, and only the Datong Army is idle." ”
Yang Qi shook his head and said categorically: "The Datong army must be stationed in the city of Datong Mansion, although the Great Song Dynasty has no action against us, but we have to guard against it." ”
Black-eyed Zhao Guangyi is not a good person, he often does such things as stabbing knives in the back, and he does it very energetically.
It was precisely because Yang Qi understood Zhao Guangyi's temperament that he was always on guard against him.
Yang Wu saw Yang Qi looking at him stunned, and exclaimed, "You don't want me to lead the Iron Cavalry, do you?" ”
Yang Qi nodded solemnly.
Yang Wu shouted, "Do you know what you're talking about?" The Iron Cavalry is the elite of your command, and you have high expectations. After you let them train, they will help you go to Dongsheng Prefecture to clean up the little thieves?
Besides, from the very beginning, the Iron Cavalry was prepared to deal with the soldiers and horses of the large army. In the face of thousands of troops, they can give full play to their advantages, and in the face of a group of small thieves, it will only wear out their blood. ”
Yang Qidao: "Fifth brother, what you said also makes sense. But now, we don't see any other opportunity to face the enemy. If the Iron Cavalry wants to complete the transformation as soon as possible, it can only start by exterminating the little thieves.
Also, the reason why I sent the Iron Cavalry to defend the town of Haoshuichuan is that there is a more important task.
That is, once the Datong Army enters the party, if there is any difficulty, your iron cavalry must rush to the rescue. ”
Responsible for the Datong Army, this statement barely satisfied Yang Wu a little.
Yang Wu said again: "The equipment of the Iron Cavalry has been sold by you now, what did we wear to fight in the past?" ”
Yang Qi smiled: "This is also another purpose for me to send you to Haoshuichuan. Training cannot be delayed until the equipment is in place. Dongsheng Prefecture is vast and sparsely populated, which is just convenient for you to gallop. Exterminating the little thieves in Dongsheng Prefecture can also make the Iron Cavalry see blood in the shortest possible time. When you officially become an army, you don't have to look for a chance to let them see blood. ”
Yang Wu nodded, "Okay, I agreed, let's go to the good water river." ”
Yang Qi nodded with satisfaction.
……
After that, ten days passed.
The messenger sent by the wild beggar Guguhun to deliver a letter to the wild beggar also returned, and also led a few old cavalrymen who looked not small in grade.
Yang Qi's expectations were not bad, although Ye Qi hated Yang Qi for taking advantage of the fire to rob, he still agreed to Yang Qi's request.
After all, the war between the two clans is imminent, and the wild beggars have no time to spend it any longer.
Moreover, compared with the territory in Li Jiqian's hands, Dongsheng Prefecture and the territory of one and a half states within 100 miles after crossing the mountain are nothing.
A cow and a steamed bun are placed in front of the table, and of course the cow is more important.
After getting the reply letter from the wild beggar Ganbo, the wild beggar Guhun found Yang Qi and conveyed the meaning of the wild beggar ganbo.
"My father has agreed to your request, and my father wants you to send the Datong army into the party as soon as possible to help us defend against the enemy. At the same time, he also hopes that you will deliver a thousand sets of equipment to us as soon as possible. ”
Yang Qi looked at Ye Qi Gu Hun with a smile and asked, "When will I see the money to buy equipment?" When will I be able to see Dongkatsu Prefecture and the places within 100 miles after crossing the mountain under my name? ”
Ye Qi Gugu said in a deep voice: "According to what you said before, my father can pay you half of the money first, that is, 400,000 taels. Half of the cash and half of the cattle and sheep have been sent to Fengcheng.
You are responsible for sending the equipment to us at the border of Fengcheng, and we will deliver the money, cattle and sheep to you.
My father said that the rest of the money should be paid by the seizure. ”
Yang Qi nodded without hesitation.
Ye Qi Gu Guhun said again: "My father has begun to evacuate the clansmen of my clan in Dongsheng Prefecture, as long as the Datong army enters the party. You can go and take over Dongsheng Prefecture and the hundred miles of land that crosses the mountains. ”
Yang Qi was overjoyed and exclaimed loudly, "Happy." ”
Selling and buying is done.
Yang Qi is very similar to inviting Ye Qi Gu Guhun to have a good meal, and he cooks it himself.
It's a pity that the wild beggar Gugu doesn't appreciate it.
He immediately asked Yang Qi to personally pack the equipment and transport it to the border under their supervision.
In order to avoid accidents, Ye Qi Gugu Hun and his party prepared to accompany him.
Yang Qi had already replaced a lot of parts in the equipment, and he didn't plan to continue to break them.
Since Ye Qi Gu Hun wanted to accompany him, Yang Qi also agreed.
After sending away the wild beggar Gu Hun and Yang Qi returned to the mansion, he began to write letters.
Two letters, one of which was handed over to Wang Gui, ordering Wang Gui to immediately lead the Datong army to the party.
Another letter was given to Kou Zhun, who summoned Kou Zhun to Fuxing Pass to discuss important matters.
The two letters were quickly delivered.
……
Three days later.
Kou Zhun rode a donkey and swayed into the Fuxing Pass.
And behind Kou Zhun was followed by more than a dozen officials riding tall horses.
The scene looks a little funny.
Yang Qi had already been informed, and when he learned that Kou Zhun had arrived, he personally rushed to the door to greet him.
Seeing Kou Zhun riding a donkey, when others were riding horses, Yang Qi cried and laughed: "The surname Kou, Lao Tzu didn't treat you badly, you are now earning a hundred taels a month, but you ride an old donkey to see me." Are you deliberately trying to covet me? ”
I haven't seen him for half a year, Kou Zhun has matured a lot, and he is in the prime of his life, but he has a little short beard.
It seems that with a short beard, he appears more mature, steady, and majestic.
It is often said that after being an official for a long time, there will be a kind of majesty in the body.
Yang Qi didn't expect that Kou Zhun, who had only been an official for more than three years, would actually begin to be majestic.
However, as soon as Kou Zhun spoke, the majesty on his body immediately disappeared.
"Chen Kou Zhun, I've seen the Tiger Marquis."
Kou Zhun slid off the donkey's back and saluted Yang Qi with a glance.
Yang Qi waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite, enter the mansion quickly." I have something important to discuss with you. ”
Kou Zhun sent the officials who followed him to rest, and he followed Yang Qi into the mansion.
Yang Qi had already ordered someone to prepare a table of good wine and food to entertain Kou Zhun.
After leading Kou into the mansion, he went directly to the dinner table.
Kou Zhun behaved with a clear look, and the etiquette was very thorough.
Yang Qi frowned, and waited until the two of them sat down before he asked Kou Zhun, "Why is Brother Kou so respectful today?" Where did the carefree Brother Kou go in the past? ”
Ever since Yang Qi met Kou Zhun, Kou Zhun had never been polite in front of Yang Qi.
Now that he has suddenly become so polite, Yang Qi is a little unaccustomed to it.
Kou Zhun heard Yang Qi's question, and said with emotion: "This time is different from the past, since your name as a tiger marquis has been confirmed, you have become a tyrant in the northwest. The lower official, who is a courtier, should be respectful. ”
Yang Qi frowned and asked, "How do I feel that Brother Kou, you didn't tell the truth." ”
Kou Zhun sighed and said, "Do you know that under the rule of our Datong Mansion and Fuxing Mansion, it seems to be calm, but in fact, there have been dark waves. ”
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Kou Zhun glanced at Yang Qi and said in a deep voice: "As far as I know, the imperial court has sent a lot of spies to secretly win over the officials under our rule. They did not hesitate to use all kinds of subordinate means to force the officials under our rule to take refuge in them.
And these officials have twisted into a rope, and they have recommended to each other the people secretly sent by the imperial court to be officials under us.
I used to be so busy with government affairs that I didn't pay attention to it.
It wasn't until recently, when my dad came to me for a deep talk, that I found out about it.
They found the Kou clan, as well as my father and my classmates, and wrote to our father and son, urging us to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. ”
Kou Zhun thought that Yang Qi would be shocked when he heard this.
But he didn't expect Yang Qi to ask him with a smile, "How many officials did the imperial court promise you?" ”
Kou Zhun smiled bitterly: "Jingguan...... Wai Lang, a member of the Criminal Department......"
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and said with a sarcastic smile: "From the sixth grade, the pattern of the imperial court is not big." If someone comes back to persuade you, tell him. If the court can grant you a seat to participate in political affairs. I, Yang Yansi, immediately released him. ”
Kou Zhun was stunned and said, "You are so optimistic about me? ”
Yang Qi stared at Kou Zhun and said with a smile: "In the same year of the Taiping Rejuvenation of the Kingdom, only you and Brother Su Yijian and Su are the two people I value the most, and both of you are the talents of Zaifu. ”
Kou Zhun didn't say anything, just got up and bowed to Yang Qi.
In many cases, knowing a person is far more important than giving a person an official title.
This is also the reason why Kou Zhun followed Yang Qi with all his heart.
