Governor please stay

Chapter 245

While Liu Yishou was flirting with Liang Guo secretly (actually half openly), Er Zhurong, who was full of ambitions and armed with a powerful soldier, was not idle.

He let Er Zhu Shilong and He Bayue's troops, that is, the troops of Commander Yuwen Luosheng, guard Luoyang. With the transportation, march to Cangyuan City in a hurry, waiting for the opportunity!

Where is Kuragaki?This city is very famous, not far to the northeast of the site of Daliang City in the Warring States Period.This is the area where the Bian River flows, presenting the shape of "ji", which has always been a battleground for military strategists.

Of course, Er Zhurong was unexpected about what happened in Luoyang City, and his handling was relatively casual and hasty.Yuan Ziyou's killing was purely because he was unhappy and wanted to find trouble, but Yuwen Luosheng's "joint punishment" was actually Er Zhurong's direct line planning for a long time.

Yuwen Luosheng is very prestigious in Wuchuan Town, even higher than Hebayue.Er Zhurong wanted to kill him a long time ago, but he couldn't find an excuse before.He Bayue heard about these things, but he didn't stop him, but secretly sent someone to tell Yuwen Luosheng to be careful.

The biggest effect of this sentence is to let Yuwen Luosheng keep a hand and ask Yuwen Hu to report to Suiyang.

And this strategy of killing two birds with one stone was obviously not something Er Zhurong's brain could come up with.It was presented by Gao Huan who was traveling with him, and Er Zhurong readily accepted it, and wrote to Er Zhu Shilong to find another suitable candidate for the Yuan clan in Luoyang City.

Now Wei's signboard can't be smashed, and Er Zhurong doesn't think he can claim the throne now.

At the same time, Gao Huan suggested that Er Zhurong should not announce the news of Yuan Ziyou's death to the outside world, but that Yuwen Luosheng could first implement the crime of Yuwen Luosheng's attempt to hijack Yuan Ziyou for rebellion, and then release the news little by little later.

In this way, it can give the world enough brain space, and then announce Yuan Ziyou's death at that time, you can do whatever you want, even Yuwen Luosheng's assassination caused Yuan Ziyou's serious injury and death!
That way everything doesn't look so out of place.

Er Zhurong was extremely satisfied with Gao Huan's idea, and almost obeyed.

As for Yuan Ziyou's greatest reliance, Liu Yishou who was stationed in Suiyang, Gao Huan suggested that Er Zhurong be polite first and then serve later. Don't tell the other party the truth, just use the official channel to inform the other party to fight Chen Qingzhi to death.

Then when Er Zhurong's army arrived in Suiyang, they could naturally coerce and lure Liu Yishou to accept the situation that had become an established fact.I believe that with that person's wisdom, he will definitely not do something that will kill the fish and break the net.

This series of tricks made Er Zhurong admire Gao Huan greatly, and he kept him with him all the time, asking him to trick him from time to time.Seeing Gao Huan being favored so much, the rest of Er Zhurong's subordinates felt annoyed and had nothing to do.

In short, during this period of time, Gao Huan made use of his characteristics of being an insider, and successfully squeezed out the relationship between Er Zhurong and his cronies, such as Dou Tai, Murong Shaozong and He Bayue, and alienated them.

However, there were also rumors in the army that He Liuhun hid behind every battle and let others die.This one who knows best can only play tricks and come up with bad ideas in front of Er Zhurong.

Maybe in the future, the chief generals of all armies will be killed by He Liuhun's behind-the-scenes ideas!
This rumor is very vicious, and more importantly, it seems to be based on "facts".For the past two years, indeed, every time there was a war, He Liuhun was sent out by Er Zhurong to lobby others, or to maintain law and order.

It seems that this person has never fought any tough battles.There are many generals in the army who can fight better than him!

As for what will happen in the future, those are "unnecessary" routines, so Gao Huan can't refute.

This kind of thing is like someone saying that Gao Huan's man is very small and weak, even worse than a three-year-old child. Could it be that Gao Huan really took off his pants in public to prove that the other party is lying?
The more you refute such rumors, the more guilty you will be.If it is ignored, it will infect and ferment like a plague.It has to be said that when Gao Huan was playing tricks on other people, Er Zhurong's subordinates were also playing tricks on him.Now it seems that Gao Huan has the upper hand, but in fact there are many hidden dangers.

Ever since Chen Qingzhi ran away, everyone saw that Er Zhurong was about to completely control the situation in Wei State, and many subordinates including Gao Huan were also undercurrents!It was planned and planned for the era when Erzhu Rong ruled over the world.

Yuwen Luosheng was the unlucky one who died in this undercurrent!
At the head of Cangyuan City, Er Zhurong looked into the distance, with a smile on his lips. He was waiting here, waiting for Chen Qingzhi to lead his troops.The white-robed army walked along the river, while they took the boat, and the speed was naturally unmatched by the former.

No matter how fierce the white-robed army is, they are still fighting away. Without the support of Yuan Hao's miscellaneous soldiers, it is difficult for them to display their full strength. Er Zhurong understands this very clearly.

"He Liuhun, do you know why this general wants to garrison Cangyuan?"

Er Zhurong turned around, looked at Gao Huan behind him, and asked with a smile.

"The end will not know."

Gao Huan really didn't know that his ability to lead troops was not bad, but his ability to fight was not very good.And Er Zhurong's strategic vision is clearly superior to his.

But why did Er Zhurong ask Gao Huan such a question?Didn't he know that Gao Huan couldn't give any good advice in this regard?
Er Zhurong actually knew about it.If Gao Huan is capable of fighting, then Er Zhurong really can't trust Gao Huan, just like Liu Yishou whose wings are hardened now.

Er Zhurong's attitude towards Liu Yishou's change was due to the fact that the opponent brought a soldier like a fish belly and became stronger as he fought. He almost surpassed himself all the way to Suiyang, almost relying on his own strength to make a name for himself!

Who would not be in awe of such a person?What's more, Liu Yishou is so young, he can afford it, and he can even spend 20 years to kill the current generation of heroes!

"East of Cangyuan City is Xiaohuang City. Going south along the Sui River is Suiyang. We don't want Chen Qingzhi to fight Liu Yishou to death. Think about it, what if Liu Yishou can't beat Chen Qingzhi and surrender to Liang Guo manage?"

Hearing this, Gao Huan nodded silently.It has to be said that Liu Yishou did have the motive to surrender to Liang, and it can almost be concluded that he has such an "alternative".

Even preferred.

Er Zhurong's suspicion was not without reason.Yuan Ziyou is dead, and the card that can provide Liu Yishou with "official face" protection is gone. He is still staying in Wei State. Could it be that he plans to come to Luoyang to have New Year's dinner with Er Zhurong?

This is a big political issue. At the beginning Liu Yishou couldn't understand Yuan Ziyou so much, why didn't he humiliate him, didn't he abolish him?

Because Yuan Ziyou can turn Liu Yishou's team into the "Wei Kingdom Forbidden Army", crown him king, and even create momentum for his brother-in-law!

Now these are all gone, which means that Wei Guo can no longer provide Liu Yishou with any apparent help, only endless obligations!

"So, the governor wants to..."

"That's right, we are blocking Cangyuan City, so Chen Qingzhi can't go south along the Sui River to Suiyang. He has to march to the south and walk along the Cai River. Then, we will wait for them at Fugou City in the south .

At that time, Chen Qingzhi would find that there was no way to go again, and he had to deviate from the marching route again and go northwest again. "

Gao Huan recalled it for a while, and further south, he arrived at Xiangyi, the big city of Wei State in the south.

"Then we will go to Xiangyi to intercept the white robe army, let them continue to go northwest, and keep away from the route back to Liang, right?"

At this moment, Gao Huan understood Er Zhurong's "obscene" way of thinking about using soldiers.

Are you awesome?That's fine, I just won't fight you head-on, but I'm stuck with you at key points on the only way you march!
Either you risk the entire army being wiped out, or you deviate from the marching route, and I will wait for you at the next intersection!
Under normal circumstances, Chen Qingzhi would be able to fight back.But He Bayue's men followed them all the time, without hurrying.If you want to fight back, they will retreat, as far as you go, they will retreat as much as you want, and when you turn around, He Bayue will come back!
This is the marching strategy that Er Zhurong explained to He Bayue at the beginning. To put it bluntly, it is "keep in contact and avoid fighting"!
In the atmosphere where the white-robed army soldiers were eager to return to the Liang Kingdom, Chen Qingzhi just wanted to fight a fierce battle. Who would want to fight to the death with an enemy who was not in a hurry to persecute?

And Er Zhurong can use the resources of the Wei State government to mobilize troops by water and block them in advance.

Gao Huan summed it up, that is, Er Zhurong decided to encircle Chen Qingzhi strategically after he found out that he was no match for Chen Qingzhi tactically.Even taking [-] steps back, Chen Qingzhi's bringing troops back to Liang would not have much impact!
What Er Zhurong wanted to do was to invite this "great god" out of Wei.Of course, it’s best if you can kill it, and if you can’t, don’t force it.

"Report! Emergency military information sent by Commander Heba!"

A messenger hurried up the city wall and handed Er Zhurong a blood-stained bamboo tube.

He Bayue?
Er Zhurong opened the bamboo tube, took out the letter paper inside, and stared wide-eyed after reading a sentence.

Chen Qingzhi used the remaining thousand cavalry to surprise He Bayue's troops who followed him all the way in the dark.Because the white-robed army was only concerned about their journey before, and did not act aggressively towards the following team.

Therefore, all the armies from Hebayue and below were a little slack.Unexpectedly, Chen Qingzhi would be able to take advantage of people's surprise and make a surprise attack at night!He Bayue was defeated and had to retreat to Zhongmu City in the west to protect himself!

Chen Qingzhi took the white-robed army and hurriedly marched to Chenliu, which is located in the northwest of Yongqiu!
"It's impossible!"

Er Zhurong was stunned by the information sent by He Bayue.

On Chen Liu's side, he sent Dou Tai to guard.If He Bayue hadn't followed all the way, then the white-robed army could attack Chen Liu without any distraction, and it's hard to say whether Dou Tai can defend it.

This is like saying that if a net is cut in one place, the next place will soon be fragmented!

"He Liuhun, you are guarding Cangyuan, and I will personally lead the troops to chase after the white-robed army!" Er Zhurong has a reserve team of [-] here, which has never been used, and is waiting for the critical moment to be able to top it!
"Here!"

Gao Huan clapped his hands and replied, neither sad nor happy.In this war, he is almost like a spectator, but there is nothing wrong with this, because he has preserved his strength.

Er Zhurong is about to take over Luoyang, and a new era is about to begin.

But the times have changed, and only the most powerful people can win more capital in the changing situation!Quantitative changes can produce qualitative changes. Gao Huan understood this truth.

After Er Zhurong left with his troops, Gao Huan gathered his brothers together.In addition to Duan Rong, Sun Teng and others, there is also a new face, who was called Han Gui after returning to Jinyang last year.

Said to be old friends, in fact, there is still a grudge between them.

Before Gao Huan met Lou Zhaojun, he knew Han Gui, and his younger sister Han Zhihui liked Han Gui, almost to the point of discussing marriage.Of course, the Han family was from the Xiongnu, and they didn't pay much attention to the defense of men and women. It is estimated that Han Zhihui had already been picked up by Gao Huan.

As a result, the Han family disliked Gao Huan's poverty, so they beat the mandarin ducks with sticks.Among them, Han Gui did not stand up to speak for his sister, after all, no one could have expected that Gao Huan would become famous at the time.

As a result, Gao Huan was later favored by Lou Zhaojun, got Lou Zhaojun's dowry, and had the capital to make a fortune. He went all the way, and the Han family probably regretted it.

Well, not long after the mandarin ducks were beaten, Han Zhihui got married, and the Han family also did a great job.

As a result, in order to get ahead, Han Gui has no choice but to let go of his figure and join Gao Huan. After all, the situation is stronger than others.Er Zhurong entered Luoyang and supported Yuan Ziyou as emperor, and many people's minds changed accordingly.

Han Gui is low-key and calm, showing no emotions, and soon gained a firm foothold under Gao Huan.Since he was an old acquaintance, he also quickly got mixed into the inner circle.

"Longque (Sun Teng's name), your strategy is good this time. If I become a success in the future, I will definitely remember your strategy today."

As soon as Er Zhurong left, Gao Huan showed his true nature and no longer shy away from anything.

Sun Teng stroked his long beard and said, "Yuan Ziyou is self-destructive. If he doesn't make any kind of clothing order, it will take a lot of trouble to deal with it. If he wants to ask for foreign aid, he just stretches his neck out to let you Zhu Rong came to chop, hehe."

He sneered, and everyone nodded slightly. Sun Teng's move to kill people with a knife was really clever.

"Besides, Er Zhurong killed Yuan Ziyou. In the future, he is destined to miss the throne of the emperor. My lord might as well spend some money to spread rumors in Luoyang, saying that Yuan Ziyou was killed by Er Zhurong. Er Zhurong was killed because he wanted to become the emperor himself."

This yin rubbing hand made Gao Huan's back feel cold.

While suggesting that Er Zhurong kill Yuan Ziyou, while secretly spreading rumors and telling the world about these things, it is like putting Er Zhurong on fire!
"and then?"

"Send He Bayue away, and let He Bayue, along with Er Zhu's direct descendants, go to Guanzhong to eliminate the banditry. The chaos in Guanzhong has been suppressed for a long time, and it has never really subsided. If Er Zhurong wants the position of emperor, he must I won’t leave Guanzhong alone.”

Sun Teng rubbed his hands while talking, looking confident.

Duan Rong nodded slightly and said: "Long Que's words are reasonable, let He Bayue, Er Zhuzhao and others leave Luoyang and go to Guanzhong, no matter what, it is beneficial and harmless to us.

The Gao brothers in Hebei, Li Yuanzhong and Feng Longzhi, are all dissatisfied with Er Zhurong. We can contact them secretly and establish a new emperor.

Of course, Er Zhurong hated the Gao brothers to the bone, and asked the Gao brothers to raise the flag of rebellion first, so that we can accumulate strength, and we will go along with Er Zhurong on the surface and prepare secretly.

Once the time is right, you can raise the flag of rebellion and bring order out of chaos. "

Duan Rong also agreed with Sun Teng's opinion, and he also proposed to unite with the aristocratic family in Hebei.

Gao Huan was silent for a long time and kept silent, as if he was thinking about some difficult decision.

"I am also from the Gao family in Bohai. If you recognize your ancestors and return to your clan, and recognize the four brothers of the Gao family as clan brothers, what do you think?"

Gao Huan made a "strategic" proposal, which is very simple to put it bluntly, that is, to seek relatives!

Although the routine of "After King Jing of Zhongshan" is very vulgar, it is really useful!There is no doubt about this!
The matter was of great importance, and everyone fell into silence. For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Feeling considerable resistance, Gao Huan said in a deep voice: "If you don't rely on the power of the family, it will be as difficult as going to the sky to overthrow Er Zhurong. The Gao brothers have strong soldiers and horses, and they are used to fighting.

If we don't form an alliance with them, I'm afraid there will be chaos in the world after Er Zhurong's death, and we may not be able to make things right, what do you think? "

How else can I say that Gao Huan has a great political mind!This guy's military talent is not very good, but he can figure out people's hearts and borrow the skills of the general trend, and everyone in the room can't accept it!

"Very good!"

Han Gui, who had been silent all this time, abruptly said something in support of Gao Huan.

Both Sun Teng and Duan Rong looked at him with strange eyes. They also knew something about Han Gui's sister and Gao Huan's affair back then.

"It's not impossible. It's just that if Er Zhurong found out, how would he feel? At that time, the Gao Brothers couldn't help us, and instead we would encounter Er Zhurong's all-out suppression."

Sun Teng shook his head, feeling that Gao Huan had a bad idea.It's not that it's not good, but now is not the time. Talking about these things with the Gao Brothers is easy to be used and blackmailed by the other party.

And exposed the cards in advance!
Gao Huan nodded slightly. It has to be said that Sun Teng considered the issue very comprehensively.He humbly asked for advice: "Then what does Longque think is better?"

"Icing on the cake is easy, but sending charcoal in the snow is difficult. What we have to do now is to keep Er Zhurong and the Gao brothers on fire after he returns to Luoyang, and encourage Er Zhurong to send troops to Hebei to make them fight hard.

Then, isn't this situation in our favor? "

Wonderful!

Everyone's eyes lit up, Sun Teng's move to divert the conflict, it really shouldn't be too insidious!
There is no way to bridge the conflict between Er Zhurong and the Hebei family.The only difference is whether they are fighting openly or secretly.

What Gao Huan has to do is to keep giving Er Zhurong advice, clean up the Hebei family, and it's over.

At least at this stage do such a thing.

"Tell me, what exactly is Liu Yishou thinking?"

Duan Rong asked thoughtfully.

He suddenly mentioned an irrelevant person, and Gao Huan was also a little surprised.

"Liu Yishou's foundation is superficial, so there is nothing to be afraid of. The overall situation in the world, some people are chess players, some people are just chess pieces. Liu Yishou is not yet qualified to be a chess player."

Gao Huan waved his hand and said indifferently.

"Is it really a shallow foundation?"

Duan Rong asked as if talking to himself.

……

"Is it really a shallow foundation?"

Duan Rong's words kept echoing in Gao Huan's ears, even if he didn't talk about this topic later, these words still lingered in his ears, like a lingering ghost.

It was late at night, and Gao Huan inspected the city wall in a pretentious manner, and went back to the backyard of the county government office in the city to rest.Cangyuan Castle, theoretically speaking, is absolutely safe.

Er Zhurong's army had already gone to pursue Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army, and Dou Tai was blocking Chenliu in front, so Chen Qingzhi could only go further to the northwest.

With the oil lamp on, Gao Huan sat in front of the table in a daze.In the past half a year, he seems to have stood at a higher position, and he can see how the world is divided and combined, and how various forces rise and fall one after another.

Those veins that were hidden before seemed to be faintly visible.

Although Er Zhurong's military talent is unrivaled, his political level is not even as good as Xiang Yu's.How Xiang Yu lost back then, Er Zhurong will only lose worse.

Gao Huan knew very well about Er Zhurong's tragic end.However, a name emerged in my heart like a curse, like a fishbone stuck in the throat, you don’t feel pain if you don’t move, but if you move a little, the tingling pain is alert.

"If you didn't have a foundation before, will you have no foundation in the future? Not necessarily?"

Gao Huan felt vaguely uneasy, this Liu Yishou was really an unexpected and unexpected character.You can't predict his direction at all.

However, it is a very certain thing to hear that this person has a lot of talents under his command.

Where is Liu Yishou so good?

Gao Huan felt that Liu Yishou's strength lies in the fact that when others are willing, or dare not not follow Er Zhurong, he dares to come out and do it alone!
But the final result is that this guy is still alive and kicking, has been active in the political and military circles of Wei State, and can cause some big incidents from time to time!

While he was thinking, there was a commotion outside, and Gao Huan walked out of the yard unhappily, only to see that the location of the city gate seemed to be burning.

"The white-robed army is attacking the city, and it is about to break through! Follow me to break through!"

Han Gui ran over covered in blood, and seemed to be slightly injured.

"The White Robe Army?"

Gao Huan was stunned, where did the white-robed army come from?

"It is indeed the White Robe Army! There is no doubt about it. I don't know how they came here. But if they don't leave, it will be hard to leave!"

Han Gui was in a hurry, so he pulled Gao Huan and ran towards the stables.It was only when we got there that we found that Sun Teng, Duan Rong and others were all there. The city had probably been broken by now, and there were shouts of beating and killing everywhere.

"The 36 plan is to go. If you don't go now, wait until later. First retreat to the north. Chen Qingzhi will never pursue north!"

In the chaos, Gao Huan's superb escape experience played a role.No matter how hard Chen Qingzhi and the Baipao Army could fight, they were now at the end of their strength.

As long as you don't chase them and beat them, those people won't catch you and beat you to death!
It happened that the white-robed army was attacking the city gate in the south, and there was no movement in the north, so it seemed easier to escape.

But it cannot be ruled out that the opponent is "surrounded by three and lacking one".At this time, the general's experience and intuition are more important, and if he is a little careless, he will suffer a disastrous defeat.

"The white-robed army is just going to cross the road, and they are afraid of our pursuit. If we retreat northward, they will definitely go south along the Sui River and will not pursue us fiercely. There must be no ambush at the north gate.

When Chen Qingzhi was surrounded by enemy troops, he was able to calmly pass through the gaps between the various armies. He had tried his best to attack Cangyuan, so how could he have time to lie in ambush at the north gate! "

Duan Shao, the eldest son who has been acting as the background by Duan Rong's side, said something suddenly.

Everyone present was a battle-tested generation. The reason why they didn't expect this was because they were mentally broken by Chen Qingzhi's sudden attack.After Duan Shao's reminder, suddenly realized.

A group of people rode horses and galloped towards the north gate to leave the warehouse. As expected, there was not even a white-robed army outside the north gate, but a lot of rout soldiers gathered.

Gao Huan collected the defeated soldiers, reorganized the army, and retreated ten miles slowly.He asked people to count the number of people, and seven or eight out of ten of his trilogy were missing, and the loss was not insignificant.

This battle was so confusing, Gao Huan didn't even know where Chen Qingzhi came from, so he was beaten by the opponent, and almost vomited blood to death.This also gave Gao Huan an intuitive understanding of the tactical strength of the White Robe Army.

Originally, he wanted to apply to Er Zhurong to lead troops to intercept Chen Qingzhi's only way, and use the opportunity of beating the dog in the water to earn military merits, but was dissuaded by Sun Teng.

If this move is really going to happen, I'm afraid it will be really difficult to get out of the red-eyed white-robed army.

"The white-robed army is just passing by. They will never stay in Cangyuan. After dawn, we lead people slowly approaching Cangyuan City. Chen Qingzhi should let the white-robed army carry some food and grass before leaving.

When they leave the city, we can make another surprise attack, maybe we can restore the situation. "

Duan Shao beside Duan Rong said something more.

Gao Huan glanced at Duan Shao in surprise, but Duan Rong strictly stopped the eldest son from making noise with his gaze.He cupped his hands and said to Gao Huan: "Now that we are newly defeated, our morale is low, and we can't bear to fight again.

The White Robe Army is not our mortal enemy, if they are willing to leave, just let them leave on their own, there is no need to cause trouble. "

Hearing this, Duan Shao stepped back sullenly, lowering his head as if unwilling.

Seeing this scene, Gao Huan nodded slightly and said: "Duan Shao is young and promising, not bad. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely fight with you as the vanguard. But this time, Er Zhurong will inevitably punish me. It is better to preserve my strength."

Although he didn't say it clearly, Duan Shao's suggestion has actually been rejected.

"It's Meng Lang, the last general."

Duan Shao put away his temper, cupped his hands and said, showing a humble look.Gao Huan patted him on the shoulder lightly, and sighed long.

……

On the way Chen Qingzhi withdrew the white-robed army back to Liang, Er Zhurong adopted the method of encirclement and suppression, not only sending troops to follow and follow all the way, but also forcing the white-robed army to change their march at key points. route.

In view of this, Chen Qingzhi stayed silent and accumulated strength. After many times of patience before, he finally succeeded in one blow and defeated He Bayue's troops who were following him.

Then, taking advantage of the time when Er Zhurong sent troops to attack, a part of the army was disguised as the main force, and the main force shot back to avoid Er Zhurong's eyes and ears, and attacked the low-walled Cangyuan City!
Gao Huan suffered a disastrous defeat without any precautions. The warehouse wall was destroyed, and a lot of food and grass fell into the hands of Chen Qingzhi and the white robe army.

What Gao Huan didn't expect was that after capturing Cangyuan, the white-robed army only took some food and grass, and then diverted from the west to Little Yellow City!With little effort, Xiaohuangcheng was captured, and a huge number of tank boats were captured at Bianshui Ferry!
Thanks to Fei Mu for storing grain in Xiaohuangcheng, there are a lot of tank boats here.Thank you Yu Jin for not doing anything wrong. After looting the treasury of Xiaohuangcheng, he didn't burn all the surplus tank boats!
After Chen Qingzhi made a false shot, he successfully won the most wanted water vehicle!
Er Zhurong was shocked when he learned that his thoughts had been guessed, but like a football defender who failed to steal and lost his position, he could only honestly follow behind Chen Qingzhi's team, watching the opponent capture Xiaohuangcheng, and leave calmly in a tank boat. There is nothing to do.

……

"what is this?"

In Liu Yishou's backyard, all the girls circled around a thick white cloth.Yuan Yuyi wanted to go forward to drag her, but Liu Yishou slapped her off.

"Uh, our little rich woman, Mrs. Yang Jiang Yang, there is such a strange piece of cloth in her dowry. Do you know what it is?"

Liu Yishou pointed to Bu and asked Yang Jiang.

When we held a "wedding" last time, we took a lot of things from the Yang family treasury as "betrothal gifts".Afterwards, Yang Shen wholeheartedly gave it to Liu Yishou, nominally as a dowry for Yang Jiang, but in fact Liu Yishou had the right to control it.

"Ah, I remembered, my father bought this from a merchant from the Western Regions, it seems to be from Gao..."

Yang Jiang said thoughtfully.

"It's Gaochang Kingdom."

Liu Yishou patted Yang Jiang's head and said.

"Oh, that's right, that's Gao Changguo!"

"Actually, it's cloth, not cloth. In Gaochang State, there are no copper coins there, or Wei State copper coins are used. But they usually use this kind of cloth when they trade with each other."

Liu Yishou made a gesture, the size of a palm, and said, "Cut out these pieces of cloth, and it will be money."

Although Gaochang State is backward, its currency concept is extremely advanced and even radical!
They understood very early on that the value of a catty of copper cannot be lower than that of a catty of copper coins.These cotton cloths are used as currency, with anti-counterfeiting marks, instead of cutting the cotton cloth to calculate money according to its size.

This principle is basically similar to modern banknotes.

"But what's the use of this cloth? It's not very pretty either."

Yuan Juli asked with some doubts.

Liu Yishou waved his hands and said, "This is not cloth, but an important foundation for our foothold. It is spun from something called grass cotton."

He gently pulled the piece of cotton cloth, and the result was like tearing up paper. Many girls were dumbfounded!
If this is usable cloth, then the quality is too bad!

"Gaochang's ability to grow grass cotton is very good, but...their weaving ability is about the same as that of a three-year-old child in the Central Plains."

Liu Yishou shook the rag and said, "If we can get out the loom for weaving grass and cotton, life will be easier after Shouyang."

Liang Guo is short of livestock, fur and so on, don't even think about it.Cotton is a life-saving fetish in winter.

Liu Yishou sighed and said: "In ordinary people's homes, clothes, food, housing, and transportation rank first, and housing ranks third. Whether they dress well or live well, grass and cotton are directly related. Starting today, You all learn to weave."
