The Emperor of Red Mansions: Many Children, Many Blessings, Opening Draft

But when a variety of huge and powerful construction mechanisms appeared in Ye Weiyang.

All the heavy objects that required a lot of manpower and time and effort to carry were easily solved.

With the assistance of other construction mechanisms, Ye Weiyang's project progress was greatly improved and the completion period was greatly shortened.

And its quality is better than manual handling.

These construction mechanisms have caused a huge sensation, and this is before the mechanical beasts have been developed.

And many businessmen have taken a fancy to these huge construction mechanisms and want to buy them, but they were all rejected by Master Ban.

Just kidding, Ye Weiyang's construction is a huge project.

Afterwards, the emperor asked him to build the entire Emei Mountain into Yunding Tiangong, so where would he find the time to make construction mechanisms to sell.

And he didn't make a fortune from this.

Of course, if there is an emperor's will, he does not recommend making and selling.

That day...

Imperial Palace, Hall of Supreme Harmony

"Your Majesty, news has just come from Jiayuguan that a merchant from Great Wu bought a piece of Hetian white jade weighing 10,000 jin in Guici Country, but was intercepted and plundered by soldiers from Western Qiang on the way back.

As many as 2,000 people in the entire caravan were killed!"

At the beginning of the morning court, Cao Shaoqin stepped out, saluted Li Chenghan with a serious face and reported.

"Oh! Well, well, it's only been a few years! Have they forgotten the power of Great Wu?"

As Cao Shaoqin's report fell, the hall was silent.

Does Western Qiang not know the power of Great Wu? Doesn't he know the power of Great Wu?

If you don't do this good business, you are courting death!

And Li Chenghan was so angry that he laughed, his eyes were extremely cold, and murderous intent continued to emerge.

"Pass on my order to temporarily close the northwest trade from now on.

Send an order to Xin Qiji, Duke of Song, to lead troops to attack Xiqiang.

Tell him that I want Xiqiang to be destroyed!"

"Dispatch troops from Luzhou and Yuzhou to the north to Youzhou, and the Bashang camp will join forces to rush to various places at any time."

"Order Yue Fei, Duke of E, to lead troops to be on guard at all times to defend against the Xiongnu tribes moving south!

If the Xiongnu dare to send troops! Fight to the death!"

"The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War should be prepared for a full-scale war! Prepare sufficient logistical reserves for the war and transport them to the nine borders and Bashang."

After Li Chenghan finished speaking, he issued orders to send various departments to do a good job in defense and logistics, and issued an order to directly send troops to Xiqiang.

"Your Majesty, I think that our Great Wu should send an envoy to the Western Qiang, and should not rashly send troops!

Now our Great Wu has gained a lot from trade with the Western Qiang and the Western Regions.

If we rashly close the Northwest Mutual Trade, we may suffer huge losses!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, our Great Wu cannot rashly start a war just because more than 2,000 caravans were killed and a piece of 10,000-jin white jade was used.

When the war starts, the people and money lost by our Great Wu are definitely not comparable to this piece of 10,000-jin white jade and 2,000 merchants.Ah!

I think that our Great Wu should send an envoy to the Western Qiang to question them and make them hand over the white jade and the culprit who killed our Great Wu merchants and civilians. ”

“Your Majesty, the war in the north is not as bad as that in Nanyue and Donghu.

Nanyue is adjacent to other small countries. Even if our Great Wu attacks Nanyue, we don’t need to worry about other small countries taking the opportunity to cause chaos.

Donghu, our Great Wu has the Xiongnu Zuoxianwang tribe to form an alliance with it.

But this Western Qiang must not be fought!

The north is now a kind of balance. If our Great Wu raises troops against the Western Qiang, it will inevitably attract the Xiongnu to move south in large numbers.

And the Zuoxianwang tribe that annexed the Donghu land is no longer the Zuoxianwang tribe it used to be.

In addition, our Great Wu has trade relations with the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu tribe is growing rapidly in strength, so I hope your Majesty will consider the overall situation and not raise troops rashly! ”

After Li Chenghan issued the order, before Lin Ruhai and the Ministry of War received the order.

The ministers jumped out to oppose.

They opposed not only because they had private business in the Northwest Trade Market, which made them a lot of money.

They opposed because they absolutely could not rashly start a war given the situation in the north.

After all, this is a situation where one hair can move the whole body. (To read the violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The Xiongnu are always preparing for war, but they will not easily go to war with any party.

"Humph! My Great Wu has 1.5 million soldiers! They are well-equipped and everyone is equipped with armor!

The annual military expenditure alone is so huge!

Now my people in Great Wu are being killed, and you are afraid of this and that for some petty gains!

My Great Wu's face has really been lost by you! ”

“I tell you, I have made up my mind and no one is allowed to persuade me!

Otherwise, they will all be imprisoned in the imperial prison for three months!”

Listening to these persuasion, Li Chenghan couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

He then pointed at the group of ministers who were trying to dissuade him and reprimanded them.

Hearing Li Chenghan's words, the ministers who opposed him couldn't help but shudder and dared not to speak out their opposition.

Please give me flowers 0

You're kidding, with the emperor's attitude, what's the point of persuading him?

If they persuade him, the war will be fought, but what about them?

Imperial prison for three months, isn't this just asking for their lives!

I heard that the imperial prison has now They raised tigers, leopards, black bears, vultures and other ferocious animals. []

Those years were like hell on earth. After three months in a few years, how could they survive?

Even if they were not tortured in there, they would be scared to death or crazy.

These ministers did not say anything to dissuade them. Only then did Lin Ruhai, the ministers of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War dare to accept the imperial edict carefully!

The ancients said that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. This is really true.

It is better to give people a quick death than to be imprisoned in the imperial prison for three months.

"Cao Shaoqin, send an order to the 18 riders of Yanyun in the northwest Gobi Desert, and let them goXiqiang. "

After Lin Ruhai and other ministers received the order, Li Chenghan spoke to Cao Shaoqin again.

He arranged the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun in the northwest Gobi.

And the one responsible for contacting the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun was the East Factory.

"I obey your order!"

Cao Shaoqin received the order and immediately bowed and responded.

After the arrangement, Li Chenghan dealt with some ministers' memorials before announcing the withdrawal of the court.

With the order of Li Chenghan's declaration of war, the war machine of Dawu, which had been immersed for a long time, began to operate again.

When the news spread to the people, countless people cheered and angrily denounced Xiqiang for warning and plundering his Dawu Baiyu to kill more than 2,000 merchants of Dawu.

Although many merchants were affected by the closure of the northwest trade, they were still very appreciative of the court's dispatch of troops to Xiqiang.

Sending troops to Xiqiang to kill the caravan , but it really touched their bottom line.

After all, merchants still want to do business in peace.

Not like you, seeing that I have good things in business, you directly send troops to intercept my goods and kill me.

If you do this, the Western Regions are far away and the environment is harsh.

Who dares to run out to do business?

Although this is just an interception, the significance of mobilizing the army is different.

Because this not only represents the intention of the Western Qiang, but also means that if this matter is ignored, then this kind of interception will become the norm in the future. 6. .
