But when Wu Lizhen thought about it carefully, he didn't completely believe Yelu Lishun's words.
If nothing can be done, why would you be sent to replace the third prince?
Taking the blame?
So Wu Lizhen smiled bitterly and said: "Fifth Prince, please stop being so secretive and tell us quickly what you can do! We really can't afford to waste this time!"
"Hahaha!"
Yelu Lishun finally lost his straight face and laughed, "Actually, Marshal, you have all overlooked a very important thing! A hundred years ago, when we were fighting in Shiwei, how much logistics did we need? No. ! Don¡¯t we all get food locally?¡±
Zupuguzi next to him was startled: "Your Highness, you mean to rob the people here of their food?"
Yelu Lishun said: "Can't you? Now they are harvesting in succession. Let's take two-thirds. Isn't it too much? Today's Liaoxi Corridor is not our territory!"
"But" Wu Lizhen said: "It is precisely because we did not raid those common people that they behave more honestly now! If we do this, it will be easy to force them to seek refuge with Dakang again, which will not be conducive to our future prospects. Rule!"
"You are overthinking this." Yelu Lishun said: "If we don't plunder their food, we won't even have a chance to rule the Western Liaoning Corridor. How can we talk about future rule?"
His words were unreasonable, but they left everyone speechless.
Wuli Zhen and the others are really not kind-hearted and want to treat the common people of the enemy country.
In fact, including Yelu Feiyang, they just want to win over the people as soon as possible, so that in the next few years, the Western Liaoning Corridor can quickly realize its potential and become another granary and base for Shiwei.
Therefore, even if it was so difficult, they did not burn, kill, and rob people on a large scale.
But now what Yelu Lishen said is not bad.
"If you don't capture Ningyuan and Jinzhou, there will be no future."
Without a future, you still talk about developing the Western Liaoning Corridor?
"But their food is still far from enough!" Wu Lizhen remembered what Yelu Feiyang said before, and said: "There are only a million people in the Western Liaoning Corridor. When we attacked the Jinzhou Qianwei City, many people came to the mainland. They have withdrawn to Shanhaiguan one after another. There are only about 300,000 people left here, and the area of ????cultivated land is not much. Even if we get it, it can only last us ten days and a half!"
"Ten days and a half month is a good supplement." Yelu Lishun was not unprepared. He looked at everyone and said leisurely: "Besides, let's not just look at the common people. There are a group of people around us." Fat sheep? They are so fat!"
"ah!?"
¡°Your Highness can¡¯t do it!!¡±
¡°You absolutely must not do this, Your Highness!!¡±
A group of people, including Wuli Zhen, couldn't help but gasped and hurriedly tried to dissuade him!
We are not stupid.
Yelu Lishun was talking about the merchants doing business in the hundred-mile radius between Liaohe River and Linghe River!
These merchants transported goods from Dakang or other places to sell here. They also bought their special products from tribes in Shiwei, Qiyan, Bohai, Baekje and other countries, and went to Dakang or Nanyang island countries to sell them.
It's not that no one is jealous of their wealth, but whenever something like this happens, Shiwei will react the most violently, slaughtering more than a dozen tribes and more than 130 groups of horse thieves. It shocked everyone and made this place generally calm.
This is not because the Shiwei people are righteous and moral, but because they know that once the lives and property of these merchants are not protected, they will no longer do business.
As a result, all supplies in the Northeast cannot be sold quickly, and various supplies and luxury goods from Dakang cannot be brought in.
In the end, they will become just like before, just like a bumpkin, and their quality of life will be greatly reduced. What's the point?
Because of this deep-rooted idea, Yelu Feiyang had only asked them to donate money twice before, and it did not cost them much when they were evenly divided. Generally speaking, the merchants did not have a strong sense of resistance, and they were still willing to wait until the war was over. After that, he continued to do business with Shiwei.
But now looking at Yelu Lishun¡¯s intention, it is obvious that he wants to raise the butcher¡¯s knife and slaughter these fat sheep!
?nbsp;Everyone is not exempt from the hobby of money.
¡°If we can conquer the Liaoxi Corridor this time and make a lot of money, and take it home to my wife, parents and elders, that would be really exciting!
By then the family will be even more prosperous!
"You can do it, but don't hurt people's lives!" Although Wu Lizhen agreed in his heart, he still warned: "If you kill someone, I'm afraid there will be no chance at all in the future! We can't lack this group of businessmen!"
What he said makes sense.
If it were not for the advantageous location of such a large plain area between Linghe and Liaohe, those merchants would have to go through Shanhaiguan, Ningyuan and Jinzhou to do business with Shiwei, which was a long and arduous journey.
As a result, there will be very few merchants coming, causing various prices to skyrocket, and Shiwei¡¯s things cannot be sold.
The people of Shiwei have suffered enough from the lack of trade, otherwise they would not have been so cruel and fair in order to protect this commercial zone.
"Do not worry!"
Yelu Lishun smiled and nodded: "I have already told them that if anyone dares to kill someone, then I will directly kill a hundred of them!"
To the Shiwei people, these vassal tribes are just tool people.
"If you disobey orders, you'll be killed. There's no problem!"
¡¡
They put it lightly, but the businessmen in the area between Linghe and Liaohe have ushered in the darkest days of their lives.
"One night, countless Bohai, Qiyan, Baekje, and Youxi cavalry rushed into one town after another and carried out crazy robberies.
They didn¡¯t just rob the richest shops, they robbed all shops, one after another, and no one failed!
"Quick! Get out!"
"Come on, drive them out!"
"Search! Dig three feet into the ground for me to search!"
"Be honest, are there any hidden treasures?"
"Hit me! If I don't beat them to pain, they won't confess!"
"Hahaha, captain, I found another box of silver The people of Dakang are really rich!"
""
The merchants were driven, whipped, and blackmailed one after another.
It¡¯s not that there were no people who wanted to resist, but those who resisted were beaten unconscious with the backs of knives, wooden sticks, and whips and thrown aside.
In addition to the sounds of crying and shouting, there were also endless screams.
They originally thought that as long as they survived the winter, the people of Shiwei would not have any more military operations. Then they simply contacted the merchant ships outside and secretly took them and others back at night when the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming.
¡°I didn¡¯t expect that at this moment, these beasts would go back on their word and directly launch an army to rob.
Not only all kinds of goods, but also their wealth of gold, silver and jewelry Everything that could be robbed was taken away!
Almost nothing is left!
This time, not only did the flowers bloom and the moon shine, but they suffered heavy losses!
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have taken any chances. I believed that those beasts in Shiwei said that as long as they could donate twice, they would never intrude!"
Now take a look
It¡¯s total fart!
Except for the fact that the house was not burned down and the food and livestock were not taken away, everything else was robbed!
Everyone is really giving up!
Not only the products that have been backlogged for half a year, but also a lot of capital have been snatched away.
Fortunately, almost everyone has property elsewhere, either in Dakang, Japan, Li, etc., or even in Shiwei.
So at least there is still some capital for a comeback.
But it was enough to make them heartbroken.
"Many businessmen who couldn't think about it for a while simply committed suicide.
The bandits did not stop this matter, thinking that it would be merciful for me not to kill you. If you want to die yourself, can I still stop you?
Boss Gu of the silk shop wanted to die.
In the end, Fei E and Boss Wang of the oil shop pulled him back.
Fei E hugged Boss Gu tightly and yelled: "Lao Gu, Lao Gu! You still have a wife and children at home, how can you give up?"
"What can I do if I don't give up?" Boss Gu cried and cried: "I borrowed money to buy the silk! Now it's all gone, how can I pay it back? How can I get enough money at home? It's better to just die!" "
"As long as the people are still there, there will be a way!" Boss Wang also advised, "We should stop doing business here and go to other places to do it. If you work hard for three to five years, won't you be able to pay off the money?"
"I¡¡"
Boss Gu was trembling all over and his mouth was trembling. After all, he was still reluctant to die, so he could only say one sentence.
"Fuck the ancestors of these barbarians"
¡¡
It¡¯s such a joy to watch the Olympic Games these days! I watched 4x100 today and rewatched it dozens of times!
We won not because we don¡¯t take medicine, but because we are really getting stronger! !
come on! ! ! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Once the business is established, if you go to another place to do it, you can't pay off the money even if you work hard for three to five years? "
"I¡¡"
Boss Gu was trembling all over and his mouth was trembling. After all, he was still reluctant to die, so he could only say one sentence.
"Fuck the ancestors of these barbarians"
