Petrin has repeatedly stressed that Russia would rather give up its share of trade with Western Europe than strengthen its trade with the Ming Dynasty. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Quite simply, it's a golden road.

Sailing on the sea is extremely dangerous, and crossing the Ural Mountains from Mobei to the European part of Russia requires only time and wagon wear and tear, plus some more black bread.

It is conceivable how much of a sensation it will be to get a large amount of silk, tea and porcelain to Europe, and the goods of China in these years do not need to be explained by the description of popularity, and the merchants themselves know that it is not goods or silver that are shipped to Europe, but boxes of gold.

Undoubtedly, uncompromised gold.

A large number of goods were traded directly, few people insisted on using cash, the Russians smiled, and the merchants of the Ming Dynasty were also extremely happy.

Hutchison did not eat alone, although it is likely that Zhang Han could eat all the goods, but Hutchison did not do this, at least more than half of the Russian goods were handed over to a large number of Chinese merchants in the mouth to eat, and then transported back by themselves to operate, Hutchison collected logistics costs and transaction taxes, which are still very low, and will not be high in the future.

The quality of the furs of the Russians is much better than that of the northern and eastern captives, and their various special goods are also quite popular, and once they are shipped back, they can be shipped in large quantities, which means profit and wealth.

"Miracles, miracles!" Petrin said to Zhang Han as if he was drunk: "Lord Zhang, I think we have joined forces to bring about all this, this is an out-and-out miracle. ”

"Your insistence, too, Petrin." Zhang Han smiled slightly, thinking that he would have to drink less wine for this Russian big nose in the future.

"Sooner or later......" a group of Russians winked at each other.

"Dear Zhang, let's toast you together." After finishing his eyes, Madov's face showed the most sincere and affectionate smile, he asked someone to bring a wine glass, poured the precious vodka brought from Russia, this is the most precious wine that even people of their status do not often drink, Madov raised his glass to Zhang Han and said: "The great Mongol conqueror, the master of great wealth, the master of people's hearts, the greatest merchant in the world!" ”

Zhang Han laughed and raised his glass to drink.

Sure enough, it is mellow vodka, to be fair, Zhang Han loves its taste more, it does not have the burning sensation of liquor, nor the flavor added by later generations of liquor, it is very pure and mellow.

"How's it taste?" Madov said to Zhang Han: "This is the best wine in our Russia. ”

"It's not bad!"

……

"Kill, kill."

"It's better not to use a quick knife, use a knife to cut zero."

"Haha, Shu Mu, are the people you bring soft, or call my people."

There was a mess of discussion and laughter all around, and Shu Mu stood at the edge of the crowd with a calm face, he was wearing a blue arrow suit, the light fabric, gently swaying in the breeze, and people were wearing cool hats decorated with red tassels to block the noon sun. In the middle of the crowd, a beheading punishment is being carried out, due to the large number of beheadings, there are dozens of people who are on guard and hands, and the whole person is Shu Mu from his own cattle record, many people are jealous This errand was personally explained by Si Beile, but Shu Mu was not happy.

In May, even Liaodong is very warm, and the summer in Northeast China is really quite livable.

The sun is not very sunny, which is much stronger than the grassland, the temperature is only close to 30 degrees at noon, and people feel very comfortable wearing light jackets.

You don't need to be like people in hot places, who are shirtless in the summer and want to peel off a layer of skin on their bodies. The summer in Liaodong is very comfortable, people also cherish this short good time, the morning and night are very cool, need to cover a thin quilt, the day is to make people feel warm, not like spring, when the spring flowers bloom in other places, the spring in Liaodong is still icy and snowy, when the autumn frost leaves in other places are red, Liaodong has been covered with ice and snow, summer is really the best season, everyone in Liaoyang City is in a very good mood, especially after a long time without threatening their lives, you can watch people take a knife to cut off the head of the barbarian, It's a very happy thing.

Shu Mu was not very happy, he was transferred back to Liaoyang from Horqin, because of the merits of the past few years by Huang Taiji appreciated, although it is still Niu Lu Ezhen, but he is often called by Huang Taiji by his side, which means a good future for a Niu Lu Ezhen. However, Four Baylor did not need him to fight.

In the past two years, in addition to fighting the Mongols, there are also various Niulu sent to the north, across the mountains to the forest and the Nenjiang region to capture those living in the waterside and the forest Jurchen, the years of war have caused the Jurchens to suffer great losses, the number of Dingkou has not been able to make up, it could have been supplemented by the Han people to carry the flag and the naturalization of the Mongols, but in recent years, the old Khan has taken indiscriminate massacre measures against the Han people, except for a few surrendered Han army generals, the surrendered Han soldiers are not having a good time, most of them were incorporated into the official village farming, a large number of people were slaughtered, The patch of the Han army could not be done, and the outer Mongolian flags were rarely raised, so in order to make up for the number of Dingkou, the Jurchen Eight Banners launched a continuous war to the north.

Fighting to the north is very attractive, small-scale, low-intensity, and can train the bannermen under their command, so that they can grow quickly and become usable warriors.

In the country of pure military slavery like the Jurchens, everyone wants to climb up, but that requires more resources, including the banner lord Baylor, the warriors who can fight are the source of strength, if Shu Mu can be sent to the north, not only can he train the soldiers under his command, but Niu Lu, who is fighting in the front, will definitely be able to give priority to replenishing his own Dingkou, and every time he makes up one, the power in Shu Mu's hands will be greater, but it is a pity that Huang Taiji did not give him this opportunity.

Sibeile often summons Shu Mu, there are eighteen Niu Lu under the command of Huang Taiji, not every Niu Lu Ezhen can see their flag master, Niu Lu has big and small, there is also a Jia Lae Zhen, Meler Zhangjing, Gushan Ezhen, there are ministers, judges, chief military officers, Niu Lu Xiao Beile, a Niu Lu Ezhen is at least seven or eight levels away from the flag owner, only Bai Swing Tooth Lama Ezhen and Bai Jia can often see the upper level, not necessarily the flag owner Belle level, more Ge Bush Xian, that is, the completely out of production of the guards, They were selected from the white armor, guarding the banner lords of Baylor, the number is very small, the most elite, they are the closest henchmen and close servants who can often see the banner lord Baylor, and the one who called Shu Mu was red-eyed was Ge Bush Shixian who was leading Huang Taiji's side, which made him very angry.

What Shu Mu was even more uncomfortable was that Huang Taiji often asked about the situation of the Hutchison convoy and related personnel, and even Sibeile would take paper and pen to record in detail, and also called a group of Han people who could calculate accounts to calculate Hutchison's profits and transportation cycles, to speculate on Hutchison's actual transportation capacity, and of course, escort personnel, escort teams, and so on.

In Koqin, the little Belyue and Sakhalian, Shuoto and others had a fierce fight with the merchant army, and afterwards both sides claimed that it was a misunderstanding, Hutchison was going to fight the Mongols, and so were the Jurchens, and there was a lack of communication when they met on the battlefield, and the generals in front did their own thing...... Hutchison explained it this way, of course the Jurchens said the same, the two sides tacitly agreed, the Thirteen Mountains, Horqin, several successive collisions Hutchison has been like an iceberg at the bottom of the sea that cannot hide the traces, at least in the eyes of the Jurchen high-level has become a potential opponent, an opponent worthy of attention.

Of course, no one really regards Hutchison as a great enemy, from Nuer Hachi to Daishan just don't like to be pinched by the neck to trade, food has become the biggest shortcoming of the Jurchens in recent years, when the Jurchens were blocked outside the Fushun Pass, Zhang Han arrived, at that time asked the old slave to exchange everything for food, he was also willing, all of them were Jurchens in his territory, and at most they were divided into the Jianzhou Department and the Haixi Dong'e Department, but each Dingkou was the source of the old slave's strength, and he attached importance to every strength brought by each Dingkou, and the lack of food brought by the tribe was insufficient and the war potential was insufficient, the grand strategy could not be carried out, so Zhang Han was just a small businessman at that time, and he could take away the covenant between Nurhachi and the Jurchen high-level, and later Zhang Han did not disappoint them, and a steady stream of food was sent over, but Zhang Han also took away more silver.

For the Jurchen higher-ups, it is not so much about how many soldiers Zhang Han's Hutchison can fight, but rather about treating Zhang Han as a vampire who sucks their wealth.

That's the most important thing.

The execution was almost to the end, a group of four people, a total of four groups of heads, sixteen barbarians were killed, blood flowed all over the ground, soaked the ground loess, seeped deep into the soil, after a long time the blood on the surface also dried up, leaving only a black and red mottled color on the ground.

Twelve headless corpses were lying on the ground, flies flying, and the onlookers were all Jurchens living in Liaoyang, and there were few Mongols in the first place, and there were not many people living in Liaoyang City.

In addition to the Jurchens, of course, there are Han people in the city, but all of them are Baoyi, and only a few Han generals are allowed to live in this city that already belongs to the Jurchens.

The battle of Liaoyang and Shenyang has passed for many years, and the smoke and traces of destruction of the south city gate can still be seen in the place where the head is cut, when Yuan Yingtai led his subordinates to fight to the death with the Jurchens here, but unfortunately the main force was lost outside the city, and the desperate resistance did not make the Jurchens stop outside the city.

The fact that the battles of Liaoyang and Shenyang were fought with blood told the Ming army that they should not go out of the city to fight, but only to resist the city and hold on.

Of course, the rulers of the city would execute and kill people, and with the exception of a few Jurchens who committed crimes, most of the people killed were Han Chinese and Mongols, and most of them were Han Chinese.

The envelope who broke the law, the slave who wanted to escape from the official village, who was accused of cooperating with the outside of Dongjiang Town, was executed and killed almost every day, and it was the decision of the judge of each banner, the interrogation was simple and fast, of course, it was impossible to have the prudence of the Emperor of the Autumn Queen, and there was a massacre everywhere, and the killing in Liaoyang City was gentle enough.
