Chapter 5 Shock(2/2)
"You are talking about talking on paper." Gongsun Xun shook his head repeatedly. "It is misleading people and causing trouble, and what we just said has not mentioned other dangers on the five hundred miles road...such as the attacks of Xianbei and Wuhuan."
Lou Gui was about to speak but stopped.
"I know what you want to say." Gongsun Xun corrected him speechlessly. "Do you think my business has a deep connection with those foreign races? Let me tell you straightforwardly. First of all, this Wuhuan is attached to the Han Dynasty, not only
It’s my family. Anyone can do business with their tribe. My family’s business with them means nothing! As for Xianbei and Goguryeo, they are actually small tribes that live on the border and are so poor that they will starve to death.
The company has formed an upstream and downstream line. As for their real senior management, how could they have any dealings with our company? There is also Sanhan, that poor place is a barren land that the Han Dynasty and Goguryeo are too lazy to include under their rule, which means that ginseng is worth a lot of money.
We have gained some trade value in the future, so what’s the use of having contacts with them? So you, you are really hopelessly high-minded and short-handed!"
Lou Gui no longer dared to speak.
"If you have the skills, you should practice your accounting skills more!" Gongsun Xun couldn't help but sigh. "Even if the situation really changes, it will take seven or eight years. My Amway account doesn't have anyone to spare...
If you continue like this, I'll have to ask you to go to Xuantu Branch to collect ginseng. It's a cool place and I'm sure you'll feel at ease in two winters."
After saying this, Gongsun Xun stood up from the bed in the other party's dormitory, held his hands behind his back and held his head high, just like his mother's expression when she went to the clan leader, with a so-called superior look on her face and left the place arrogantly.
A night of silence.
On the second day, which was also the fifth day after Gongsun Xun returned home, Li Sanyi sent news that Lou Gui was indeed a lot more honest.
But on the third day, which was also the sixth day after Gongsun Xun returned home, in the morning, a fast horse suddenly galloped into Lingzhi City... It turned out to be the guest at home who had been sent to Yangle to deliver the message!
In other words, not only did this person fail to deliver the letter, but he brought earth-shattering news to Gongsun Xun, the Gongsun family, Lingzhi City, and even the entire Youzhou:
The convoy of the mother of Zhao Bao, the governor of western Liaoning, was also the convoy of the powerful Zhao Changshi aunt. On the way out of Lulongsai to Yangle City, they encountered the Xianbei people and the entire convoy was captured!
"Are you kidding?!" Gongsun Xun's first reaction after hearing this was disbelief. "In the four hundred years of our country, the former Han Dynasty and the later Han Dynasty have never heard of such a thing! Two thousand Shi family members were captured by the enemy in our own territory.
Captured?!"
"Young Master, why would you joke about something like this?" the guest quickly replied. "I heard the news when I walked to Guanzi City. After asking about the situation, I hurried back. As soon as I passed Lulongsai, there was
The whole place was under martial law, and then the messengers came out in all directions... I am familiar with the road, so I have to hurry up. I am afraid that in a few quarters of an hour, the official news will arrive."
"It's still not right." Gongsun Xun said with a frown. "When the mother of the governor of Liaoxi goes to the county to govern, Lu Longsai should send out elite escorts. The old lady also said it personally..."
"The enemy has thousands of horses." The guest suddenly interrupted.
Gongsun Xun was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately figured out what was going on... This was when the Han's war preparations from Daijun to Yunzhong were exposed. The Xianbei people wanted to strike first, but were unable to fight back, so they launched a large army to invade.
The cities outside the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty! And Yangle City was the first to bear the brunt!
This is just the beginning of a series of wars!
And if you think about it this way, Mrs. Zhao, her daughter-in-law, and granddaughter may be really unlucky and fall into the hands of the enemy!
Thinking about the several encounters with that family, and then thinking about the upcoming series of battles, Gongsun Xun had mixed emotions for a while, and he really didn't know what to say.
But there was no time to think too much. In the afternoon, with the arrival of the military messenger, there was a complete commotion in Lingzhi City... As Gongsun Xun said before, not to mention the Xianbei invasion of nearly ten thousand horses, which was unprecedented in scale, just talking about one county.
The fact that the chief's mother was captured by an enemy country is something that has never been heard of in the 400 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty! Without even thinking about it, Luoyang will be shaken across the board, and the entire territory of Youzhou will definitely send out elite troops under the control of the governor Liu Yu.
Support, and as for the cities under this county in Liaoxi, it goes without saying!
You must know that these days the country is based on the county!
The governor of a county is like a king. If something like this happened to the king's mother, to put it bluntly, you officials, sergeants, and even the local powerful people in Liaoxi County should all die for humiliating the officials!
In fact, the county king of Lingzhi County immediately issued an order after the shock, and sent all the troops, soldiers, children of wealthy families, grain and strong men in the county to Lulongsai!
Gongsun Xun had not had time to resign as a county official. In addition, his surname was Gongsun, he was a disciple of Guang Luxun at that time, and he was a young hero who broke through the camp with thirty horses... so he was naturally appointed to this army.
Leader, go to support.
Although Aunt Gongsun was extremely reluctant to leave, she could only let her son go without even complaining... Didn't you see that Gongsun Yue had just arrived home and followed him? Even Gongsun Fan, the eldest son of the clan,
They were all thrown out by his grandfather! In this situation, it seems that all he can do is count on Han Dang, a 'famous historical general', to protect his son again.
After packing up, we set off directly on the second day. There was no such thing as a heroic journey. To put it bluntly, although the troops and horses were strong and the food and supplies were ready, people were panicked and at a loss. This is how everyone felt... There was really no one.
Having encountered this kind of thing, I don’t even know whether I should fight this battle or not!
But just when Gongsun Xun said goodbye to his mother and took Han Dang, Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan and hundreds of other elites with him with a blank mind and prepared to leave from Ximen, he happened to encounter another extremely disgusting and annoying thing.
"Gongsun Shaojun, Gongsun Wenqi!" Lou Gui, Lou Zibo, who was too ambitious and low-minded to even know basic geographical knowledge, was being dragged back by two store clerks at the moment, but he still wanted the Amway boss.
He stood on the door frame of the courtyard and shouted loudly into the street. "Listen to me, listen to me! I have a plan! I have a wonderful plan!"
Gongsun Xun was already upset, but now his eyelids were twitching with anger from this guy, so he immediately became furious: "Bring him over to me, and use a knife with him again! Even if he doesn't die in this battle, I won't
I want to throw him to Lelang County along the way and be my ginseng customer for twenty years!"
"Zhao Bao, whose courtesy name is Weihao, was born in Dongwucheng, Ganling. He was loyal to his brother and served as a constant servant to the emperor. Bao was deeply ashamed that his family had an eunuch named Shao and did not communicate with Zhong. He first served in the prefecture and county, promoted filial piety and integrity, and then moved to Guangling.
After three years of service, the government and religion were clear, and the county showed its status. He was moved to the west of Liaoning Province. He resisted the rule of law and became famous among the border customs. He sent an envoy to welcome his mother and wife, and he came to the county. The road passed through Liucheng, and more than 10,000 people from Xianbei entered the country.
The bandits, Bao's mother, wife and daughter were robbed as hostages and carried to attack the county." - "Book of the Later Han" Volume 81. Biography of Du Xingxing
PS: Let me discuss something with you. I am getting more and more frustrated. Can you officially change the daily updates to eight o'clock? This way I will be less stressed.
