Chapter 410: Dancing with the eight-foot sword, all the enemies fell into the ground
Hiding brother is here...
Zhen Luo seemed to have reacted, and she said very sensibly. "Sir, go and look for Master Bao. Master Bao hasn't been here for a long time. Well...there must be something urgent this time."
"Don't worry, Mr. Yi." Zhang Zhongjing also added at the right time. "I will take care of Miss Zhen Luo here. Miss Zhen Luo will definitely be fine!"
After the two of them persuaded them, Yi Xiaotian simply nodded. "Okay, I'll come as soon as I go."
It just so happened that he was still thinking about asking Brother Hao if he could get a lot of wool.
As he spoke, Yi Xiaotian walked out of the private room of the wine shop.
Going downstairs and entering the main hall, Cao Cao and Cao Ren were now sitting in a corner.
Seeing Yi Xiaotian, he hurriedly waved to him.
"Brother Yi, here...here!"
Yi Xiaotian walked closer quickly, his expression still ugly.
Cao Cao could see his expression and frowned at the moment. "Brother Yi? Just now I heard from the waiter at the wine shop that your sister Zhen Luo is sick? Is that so?"
"That's right, it's not a serious illness, just a cold." Yi Xiaotian replied...
"Is it cold?"
Mentioning Fenghan, Cao Cao seemed a little touched...
During this period, many soldiers in Cao's army also suffered from cold. The key is that the weather is getting colder and colder. Unless the soldiers are allowed to stay in the barracks and not go out to practice...
Otherwise, there will only be more and more soldiers suffering from cold.
This really bothered Cao Cao.
For this reason, Cao Cao and Yi Xiaotian felt the same way.
"Wind-chill is not a serious disease, but the weather is so bad. Alas...it is very difficult to recover from wind-chill." Cao Cao sighed helplessly...
Since this topic was mentioned, Yi Xiaotian simply asked.
"Brother Hiding? Let me ask you something serious. Do you know where there is wool? A lot of wool?"
Sheep...wool?
Cao Cao was startled, why did he ask about wool for no reason?
It is true that the Quhan Jiaoer soup and dumplings developed by Yi Xiaotian are both cooked with sheep bones and mutton, but it seems that... wool is of no use? It also smells like sheep, which Cao Cao dislikes. Brother Yi
Why are you bringing this up?
For a moment, Cao Cao was curious...
He raised his head and asked, "Brother Yi, what's going on? This mutton soup and mutton dumplings can relieve typhoid fever. Can this wool also be used as medicine and cure colds?"
After all, it was Zhuyu who came first, and it was Brother Yi who solved the problem of typhoid fever. Cao Cao couldn't help but associate wool with the cure for wind and cold...
But just for a moment, Cao Cao waved his hands again and again, if such smelly wool was really drugged.
Other medicines cost money, but this medicine tastes terrible.
"No..." Yi Xiaotian waved his hand. "How can wool be used as medicine? But...compared to being used as medicine, wool is much more useful. It can even help northerners resist the biting cold!"
At this point, seeing Cao Cao being a little surprised, Yi Xiaotian continued, "Brother Hi, just tell me if you can get wool. I want a lot of wool from thousands of sheep!"
It's time to steal the wool that everyone loves to see, but this time, Yi Xiaotian really plans to steal the wool.
call…
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Yi Xiaotian's serious look, he really believed it. He believed Yi Xiaotian's words that wool could withstand the cold, but... He believed it. Brother Yi's tone was too loud, right?
Thousands of sheep, where can I find them?
unless…
Cao Cao really thought of a place where sheep were everywhere.
"Brother Yi, it seems... that the only places where tens of thousands of sheep can be found are the western part of Liaoning occupied by the Wuhuan people and the eastern part of Liaoning occupied by Gongsun Kang... They are located outside the Great Wall, with endless grasslands and forests, which are most suitable for sheep herding.
...The Wuhuan people are nomadic, and most of their food is based on mutton. Brother Yi wants this amount of wool, but...it's only over there!"
At this point, Cao Cao waved his hand. "It's just that within the Han Dynasty, it's okay. Even I, Ah Ma, have never done business with foreigners, let alone purchased their wool. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you this time."
Brother Yi."
Cao Cao actually said this on purpose. He was thinking about how to bring the topic to attack Wuhuan and conquer Liaodong!
After all, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, the two remnants of the Yuan family, are still living in western Liaoning!
If they don't die, Cao Cao won't be able to feel at ease!
call out…
Yi Xiaotian nodded heavily.
After being reminded by Brother Hi, he immediately had a direction.
Wuhuan, wool, this is also okay!
If we follow the course of history, Cao Cao's next target is Wuhuan. By then, Liaodong will be in Cao Cao's hands. It will be a sure thing to do business in Wuhuan and capture their wool.
Son!
Then a new question arises, when will Cao Cao attack Wuhuan?
Yi Xiaotian couldn't wait any longer.
To know…
Today's woolen sweaters are not only closely related to Zhen Luo's cold disease, but also closely related to Yi Xiaotian's future business layout in the north.
Wool sweaters can be called the black technology of this era, and they are a monopoly, as long as the supply of wool is completely captured by Yi Xiaotian.
It is equivalent to monopolizing the woolen sweater market in the entire north. This profit is greater than iron or steel, and it will even become a new economic growth point for Youjian Villa.
After all, those who have a demand for iron are only warlords, while those who have a demand for sweaters are the general public.
Hey, when he thought of this, Yi Xiaotian raised his eyebrows high. He really wanted to go to the Wuhuan tribe in Liaodong to find the supply of this wool.
Yi Xiaotian is thinking about finding a source of wool...
Cao Cao directly brought up the topic he was most concerned about. "Brother Yi, there is actually a way that can allow you to obtain a steady stream of wool... That is, destroy Wuhuan, put Liaodong into Cao Cao's pocket, and let Xianbei and Nan
The Xiongnu completely surrendered and offered tens of thousands of fat sheep every year. By then, wouldn’t Brother Yi’s wool be readily available?”
There's nothing wrong with that.
Yi Xiaotian nodded in approval...
Cao Cao continued to speak, his tone becoming much more sincere. "Brother Yi, now Cao Cao also intends to attack Wuhuan, but before that, he raised several concerns and problems to me. These concerns and problems, here... again
I have to ask Brother Yi for advice."
As expected…
Brother Huo, Cao Cao is the chief counselor of Cao Ying. Cao Cao will definitely listen to his advice when formulating general strategies.
For this reason, Yi Xiaotian had actually made a detailed plan to pacify the foreign tribes early in the morning based on the records in ancient books and documents, so he thought about waiting for Brother Hi to come and tell him all about it.
I never thought that my brother would be the first to speak up this time.
"Brother Hiding, you don't have to be polite to me. What's the problem? If you have any concerns, just ask them directly. Will I, Yi Xiaotian, hide it from you?"
Yi Xiaotian smiled lightly... and said something.
Hearing these words in Cao Cao's ears, it was extremely comforting. Brother Yi, you are so interesting and a good friend!
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Cao Cao immediately laughed, then changed the topic, his whole person became much more serious, and even his words became much more meticulous.
"Brother Yi, the first thing to deal with is the issue of Bingzhou! Just like Brother Yi's plan, after Cao Cao captured Qingzhou, both Bingzhou and Youzhou surrendered. Fortunately for Youzhou, it was Yuan Xi's generals Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan who rebelled.
Dedicate the city."
"I have inquired about these two generals, and they are worthy generals. Therefore, I also recommended Cao Cao to give them high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and sent General Zhang Liao to garrison Youzhou to resist Wuhuan in Liaodong and Gongsun Kang in western Liaoning. This Youzhou
The attack on Zhouzhou was all planned by Brother Yi and was completed properly, but..."
Halfway through his words, Cao Cao's words became a little stumbling, and he seemed a little nervous, as if facing a formidable enemy.
"The situation in Bingzhou is very different from that in Youzhou!"
Cao Cao sighed, and then explained in detail. "Although Bingzhou also surrendered, the governor of Bingzhou is a high-ranking cadre. He was Yuan Shao's nephew and served as the local emperor in Bingzhou for many years. I sent people to investigate, and Bingzhou
The whole territory only recognizes high-ranking officials, and they don’t even know the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao, or even Cao Cao..."
At this point, Cao Cao's tone became much more serious.
"Bingzhou is too centralized. However, this kind of military and political power is integrated. Even if the high-ranking officials surrender, Cao Cao cannot easily resolve it. This is a hidden danger. If Cao Cao goes to attack Wuhuan, and the high-ranking officials come out from behind, Bingzhou will not be able to resolve it easily.
If you start some kind of rebellion, then unite with Xianbei and unite with the Southern Xiongnu, then...Cao Cao will be attacked from both sides and in danger! Brother Yi, what do you think about this...?"
Cao Cao put his worries aside...
To put it bluntly, even if you want to get rid of the influence of high-ranking officials in Bingzhou, they are intricately entangled and have a deep foundation. You can't get rid of them even if they have surrendered and their morality is there.
Let him govern Bingzhou, but you don't have to worry about it. This will even affect Cao Cao's strategy for Liaodong.
All in all, it was difficult for Cao Cao to deal with Bingzhou and high officials.
at this time.
After listening to Cao Cao's detailed account, Yi Xiaotian nodded solemnly.
Needless to say, Brother Hi's sense of smell is still very keen this time.
Gao Gan is really not a fuel-efficient lamp. On the contrary, he is extremely greedy. The so-called snake swallows the elephant when the human heart is not enough, but he really swallowed an elephant in his belly!
only…
His mouth is big, but his throat is small, so he can't swallow it after all...
Sooner or later he will be strangled to death!
Of course, Yi Xiaotian has the best experience in dealing with such double-dealing villains who appear to be doing one thing but behind the scenes.
In his opinion...to deal with high-ranking officials, just one sentence——
——The eight-foot broadsword danced in the hand, and all the enemies fell into the ground.
——The old man swung the cart in his hand, causing the enemy to belch and turn into ashes.
