Chapter 1022 Fushun Border City
In mid-July of the first year of Longwu, Fushun Border Market reopened outside Fushun Pass.

The news of the re-opening of the border market for many Jurchen tribes quickly spread to the major Jurchen tribes, and all major tribes rushed to Fushun Pass after hearing the news.

When they drove their tribe's animal skins, animal bones, ginseng, game and other things to Fushun Border Market, they were a little surprised to find that the Fushun Frontier Army had completely changed, and the Mingzi flag was gone, replaced by black and black The soldiers also changed their military uniforms one after another, and put on uniform black and black uniforms and helmets.

Sophisticated weapons, bright swords and guns, and a large number of infantry and cavalry with gunfire, such a powerful formation made the leaders of the Jurchen tribe question whether Daqin is going to open a border market or wipe us all out?
In the past, when the Ming army opened the border market, although there were troops on guard, they didn't have such a posture, right?
They are skeptical.

The officials in charge of the border city still seem to be civil servants, and explained their doubts, saying that this is a necessary measure for security and has nothing to do with attacking you. Daqin does not want to fight now, but because of frequent frictions before, His Majesty the Emperor deliberately When ordering to open border markets, they must be strictly guarded.

The officials also said that this is how Daqin does it. You don't have to come, but if you want to come, you must abide by Daqin's rules.

This is very polite, but it is also very tough. It is much better than the pure arrogance and arrogance of the officials of the Ming Dynasty in the past, but it is also quite irritating, but the situation is stronger than others. The Jurchen tribe needs these things, so they must Accept Daqin's request.

Daqin also stipulated that the border markets of the three major tribes of Jianzhou, Haixi, and Donghai should be divided into different time periods. First, the Jurchen tribe of the East China Sea, which is far away, came to trade for three days, and then the Jurchen tribe of Haixi traveled for three days. , the last is the Jianzhou Jurchen Department trade for three days, which is divided according to the distance, and the Jurchen Department three must not have any objections.

Nurhachi personally led the team to come to trade. After hearing about this regulation, he was a little dissatisfied and also very strange. He sent people to discuss further but failed.

Moreover, after this regulation came out, the Donghai Jurchen Department and the Haixi Jurchen Department were very supportive, and Nurhachi had no choice but to accept it.

But Nurhachi was really worried that all the good things would be sold out, and it was his turn that only crooked melons and bad dates were left, so he sent He Heli to negotiate, and the response he got was that the things prepared by Daqin for the three Jurchen tribes were all the same, almost the same , and the quantity is sufficient, there will be no situation where a certain product cannot be purchased.

In this way, although Nurhachi was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only lead the team to wait. Seeing that the Donghai Jurchen first entered Fushun Border Market to start trading, and then left Fushun Border Market one by one, he seemed quite satisfied. look.

After watching it for two days, He Heli recalled it.

"It seems reasonable for the Han people to do this. Our route is the shortest and the round trip is the most convenient. If we finish the trade first, and then send people to ambush on the only way back to Haixi and Donghai, then these two departments will not It is impossible to leave the peeling skin, and the Han people can't say anything.

But in this way, we are in danger. Once we want to do it, and the news of doing it comes, then the Han people are likely to stop the border market trade immediately, and we can do nothing. These troops are the best deterrent to us. If you want to wait until the transaction is completed, it should be too late. "

Nurhachi also reacted, looking worried.

"In this way, the Han people want to deal with us?"

"You only need to compare whether the goods we can buy in the Western Sea and the Eastern Sea are the same, and you can judge whether the Han people want to deal with us or simply maintain the balance between us and don't want to let Let's go to war."

He Heli made such a decision, and Nurhachi thought it was very correct.

For a long time, Nurhachi has not stopped sending spies and undercover agents to the west and east of the sea. There is no impenetrable wall in this world. What he wants to know can be done on this one-acre three-point land outside Fushun Pass.

So Nurhachi learned exactly the type and quantity of goods purchased by the East China Sea and the West Sea, and was very surprised to find that there were also made Han Chinese standard weapons such as long spears, machetes, bows and arrows, and also inquired about the purchase price of the goods. It is slightly lower than before, but the control is very strict, and there is no room for bargaining.

Both Donghai and Haixi wanted to bargain, but they were sternly rejected, and they would never bargain.

"Manufactured ordnance? In the past, we would never have been able to buy it through the border market."

Nurhachi was very shocked: "We can only buy these things through the Liaodong Army, and most of them were eliminated. Didn't the Han people strictly control ordnance and iron in the past?"

He Heli was also very worried.

"If the things we can buy do not have these standard ordnance, it will be dangerous. The Han people may have linked the two departments of Haixi and Donghai to deal with us. Everything before is just a cover. We must be prepared."

After a burst of horror, Nurhachi's face gradually calmed down, and a little bit of sternness flickered in his eyes.

"I didn't intend to do anything to Xiao Ruxun. If Xiao Ruxun wanted to do something to me, I would definitely not make it easy for him! Even if there are not many soldiers, I still have thirty thousand elite soldiers!"

Nurhachi was ready to fight back at all costs, but when it was their turn on the seventh day of the trade, they were also surprised to find that the goods supplied to them also included a large number of standard ordnance, well-made spears, machetes, bows and arrows, There's even armor.

Although the price is high, but these are boutique.

Nurhachi couldn't move his eyes from looking at those ordnance.

What a good weapon, if my army could be fully equipped to this point, I would have swallowed Haixi and Donghai to dominate Jurchen long ago.

This strange thought came to Nurhachi's heart.

For no reason, he thought of this approach.

Except for salt, tea and some necessities, Nurhachi didn't want to buy many other things. He made a final decision and concentrated all his efforts on purchasing armaments, and immediately sent people back to the tribe to exchange gold and silver treasures with Daqin for armaments.

With these things, what else are you afraid of?
Haixi and Donghai are not prepared, they must have bought less than me!

Nurhachi thought of this very excitedly. He has the advantage of the land, and he has the upper hand. After he has obtained the largest number of ordnance and armor to arm his army, he will be able to realize his desire for more and more. up.

Haixi, Donghai, sooner or later, he will have to attack them one by one.

And their actions are all under the watchful eyes of the border city officials. While observing these people, they record their actions. These records will soon be turned into information and transmitted to the center of the empire and handed over to the emperor. Xiao Ruxun is the holy judge.
