Tiger Prison Pass is not only a male city of his own, under its jurisdiction, dozens of large and small military villages are scattered in the Hengshan, Tiger Prison Pass is only the base camp of the Qin people and the command of the army, the 50,000 troops of the Qin State, only 20,000 people are really stationed in the pass, and the other 30,000 people are stationed in the military village, but most of the families of these soldiers are gathered in the Tiger Prison Pass. Bi Qu Ge www.biquge.info a city with a population of more than 200,000 and one of the largest cities in the eastern part of the Qin State.

Xiao Qiang is an ambitious, or ambitious guy, even when he was tight before, this guy would use his private savings to subsidize the soldiers, in order to attract people's hearts.

The Qin people were poor, and the border army of the Qin State was even poorer before, at that time, even the army under the command of the Deng family itself could not be fed and clothed, let alone subsidized Xiao Qiang, and finally Xiao Qiang could only find his own way.

Over the years, Xiao Qiang has indeed won the support of these scholars, and it is precisely because of this that under the turbulent political situation in the Qin State, Xiao Qiang's suppressed ambition is like a wildflower watered by the spring rain, and it suddenly grows strongly.

Cao Hui entered the Tiger Prison Pass with a smuggling caravan, this caravan has been on this road for many years, and is quite familiar with the Qin military villages along the road, which also made Cao Hui go all the way to the Tiger Prison Pass, but this way, the situation he saw along the way, made him feel a little heavy.

Because the Qin people are indeed preparing for war. Every military village, no matter how big or small, has entered a state of combat readiness, even the boss of this caravan, along the way is also trembling, when there is peace between the two countries, these military villages are their protectors, no one dares to trouble them, because robbing them, it is equivalent to robbing the rice in the bowl of these soldiers, but if the two countries start a war, then they are directly like a flock of tigers, and everything in the caravan will become the spoils of war for these soldiers.

Fortunately, along the way, there was finally a thrilling come, and although the eyes of those soldiers were not good, they did not embarrass them much.

The caravan boss is glad that he finally reached the Tiger Prison Pass, because when he arrives here, he is safe, Xiao Qiang is a big man, and his appearance will not be so ugly.

But Cao Hui saw a different side. What they saw and heard along the way proved that the Ming people were not intimidated by false karma, but were indeed preparing to invade Daqi.

When Cao Hui was still called Shu Hui, he once came to the Tiger Prison Pass, and the Tiger Prison Pass at that time was extremely poor, and it was extremely difficult to see any shops on the street, because of poverty, hundreds of thousands of people actually implemented the rationing system. In Cao Hui's opinion, this is simply unimaginable.

After a few years, when he came to Tiger Prison again, he found that there was a great change, at least walking on the street, he saw one shop after another opening for business, and what made him even more shocked was that these shops were all run by Ming people.

At Tiger Prison Pass, he even saw the branch of the Taiping Bank in the Ming Kingdom. When pedestrians come and go to trade in these shops, they actually use not the money of the Qin State, but the paper money of the Ming State.

Walking into a few shops at random and buying a few things, Cao Hui sighed, this time the caravan that came with him was only afraid that it would lose money.

How long has it been, and has the Ming infiltrated the Qin State to such a point?

If the Ming army invades on a large scale, with the temperament of the Qin people, it must be desperate to resist endlessly, but this method, silently, looks harmless to humans and animals, and also helped the Qin people solve their urgent needs, but it made the Qin people fall into the quagmire step by step, until they can no longer climb out.

It's a pity that there are very few Qin people who can see this.

Back at the inn, Boss Fan of the caravan had also returned, looking at his sad face, Cao Hui knew that he had guessed right, Boss Fan was afraid of losing a lot of money this time.

"How much did you lose?" He asked faintly.

Fan Tong sighed mournfully, sat down with a wry smile, and poured a stomach full of cold water, as if to let these cold water extinguish the evil fire in his heart. "Who would have thought that in just a few months, things would change so much."

"I saw that the street was full of goods from Akito's shop." Cao Hui said.

"Yes!" Boss Fan painfully realized his head, "The Ming people opened up the business road from Yongping County to Tiger Prison Pass, when the Ming people began to build roads in Yongping County, we knew that our business would not last long, and we thought that it would not be repaired in a short time, but at least this year we can go two times, how did they expect them to repair it so quickly, less than three months, but let me make this trip, will be a few years of hard work into it." ”

"The Ming people have built the road of Youfeng and come to Yi and the two counties, aren't they afraid that the Qin people will follow this road to rob them in the future? The Qin people are predators. They have this addiction! Cao Hui said.

Boss Fan shook his head: "Of course the Ming people are not afraid, they just beat the Qin people all over the ground to find teeth." ”

Cao Hui smiled: "This time is also that time, if you don't rob it today, you may not rob it in the future!" He stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "I'm going to work hard for your future business, maybe I can tell Xiao Qiang to let him go and rob Mingren now?" It's better to grab than to do business, isn't it? ”

Fan Tong looked at the young man in front of him with some shock, when he set off from Qi State, an official friend found him, saying that this young man was going to Tiger Prison Pass and asked him to help bring him over, but the official friend was just a small official.

And now, the young man in front of him actually said that he was going to see Xiao Qiang, Xiao Qiang is also a general, the general of the Qin State, commanding the 50,000 elite Qin troops in the Tiger Prison Pass, and the power to kill more than 200,000 people in the Tiger Prison Pass is in his hands, but the person in front of him is so light on what he said.

"You, you ......" Looking at the one in front of him, Fan Tong couldn't connect him with the young man who was talking happily with him along the way, helping the guy push the cart backpack and cutting down trees to pave the way.

"Thank you for taking care of you along the way!" Cao Hui smiled and took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and put them on the table, "There are a lot of bright goods in this tiger prison, our Daqi is now at war with the Ming Kingdom, and the trade routes of the Ming Kingdom are cut off, so that the price of Ming goods in our Daqi has skyrocketed, if you can buy some from here and go back, you can benefit a lot, and you will definitely be able to make up for the loss of this trip." ”

"I, how dare I ask for money from adults?" Fan Tong glanced at the banknote on the table, it was Mingren's money, of course he recognized it, but the number of the first sheet startled him.

"I see that all the money used here is clear money, and I happen to have some on me." Cao Hui laughed and strode out.

Xiao Qiang's General's Mansion in Tiger Prison looked very dilapidated from the outside, and along the way, Cao Hui also saw that there were several holes in the wall outside, and there were wild dogs and wild cats coming in and out of nowhere.

Of course, Cao Hui didn't think that he could get in and out as easily as these beasts, if it was a person who entered, Cao Hui could guarantee that he would either be shot into a sieve or poked full of blood holes after a few steps into it.

Even if this tiger prison is Xiao Qiang's lair, a general's defense is by no means what you see in your eyes, these holes, seemingly empty defenses, are just a trap to lure those fools to send themselves to death, although they are extremely poorly done, but there are not many stupid people in this world.

Slowly walked to the main gate of the General's Mansion, and finally saw the solemn atmosphere of the mansion of some great generals with the power of life and death in their hands.

There were some disabled veterans sitting or leaning or lying at the gate, some were shamu, some were missing arms, some were broken legs, and when they saw Cao Hui striding over, these people didn't have much movement, but their eyes fell on Cao Hui's body in unison.

Only those elite soldiers of a hundred battles would have this kind of eyes, those people seemed to be very casual movements, but in Cao Hui's eyes, it was the most convenient gesture when killing, if they had any bad intentions, these people could pull out their knives and draw their crossbow arrows as quickly as possible.

When he approached the gate within ten steps, the nerves of those soldiers obviously collapsed even tighter, Cao Hui stopped at the right time, looked at an officer sitting next to the stone lion in front of the gate, and said with a smile: "Please tell General Xiao, Cao Hui, a person from Daqi, asks to see!" ”

The officer raised his head, glanced at Cao Hui, and muttered, "Great Qi people, you have a lot of courage!" ”

"Please report to the General!" Cao Hui handed over his hand, and along with the handover, there were still a few banknotes.

The officer didn't mean to refuse, took the banknote, and casually threw it to the soldier on the ground, "Take it." ”

A soldier on the ground took the banknote, glanced at the numbers on it, grinned, and showed a mouthful of big yellow teeth: "Good guy, it's really generous, boss, we can go to Boss Hong's shop to buy a few good armors, grandma's, Mingren's armor is good, it's expensive." ”

"There is going to be a war soon, get a few good armors, don't lose, there is a life, it's not better than anything." The other soldier chuckled. "Take all the people's money, buy the armor of the Ming people, and go back to fight the people, this is really a bit mysterious."

The officer glanced at them, "A big mouth, if you don't make noise, you'll die!" You, wait here, I'll go and report to you, make it clear, the general can't see you, I can't be the master. Money is non-refundable. ”

"Of course, just let me know!" Cao Hui smiled and said, in this world, there are not many doors that you can't get into!
