I’m Marquis in Great Tang

Du Qi doesn’t care how Hu Youshan manages Yanqi country. Because of the supervision and discipline inspection, the self-financed is fully responsible. If there is no shortage of money, the government of Yanqi will naturally be rectified.

However, Du Qi paid attention to Hu Youshan’s invitation to new salt merchants. At first, Hu Youshan issued a notice to invite new salt merchants to enter, which caused a huge response.

Many salt merchants came after hearing the news and took the initiative to contact them, hoping to sell salt in Yanqizhou. In the end, Hu Youshan chose two salt merchants and allowed them to sell salt in Yanqizhou.

As a result, after competition and comparison, the salt price in Yanqizhou has fallen, and finally entered a relatively stable price. The current salt price is at least half lower than the original salt price in Yanqi.

The people are happy to see it happen.

All the people praised Hu Youshan. Because of today’s prices, salt is much cheaper for the people.

In this case, Du Qi also applauded.

Especially when Hu Youshan was in charge, he actually stabilized Long Zhengyang’s emotions, making Long Zhengyang never resist. Even Du Qi got the news that Long Zhengyang had a conflict with Zhang Zicheng for this. In the end, Zhang Zicheng didn’t dare to say any more, and he was obediently and honestly at the crystal salt shop, and Hu Youshan’s first administration took place smoothly.

The reforms in Yanqi Prefecture have also proceeded.

Hu Youshan does things very well, and means Lifting The Heavy As Though It Was Light, reforming the major event, but after the final adjustment of the personnel, all the officials are grateful to Hu Youshan, without any resistance.

So that the reform proceeded smoothly.

In the end of June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, but the development of Yanqizhou is beginning to accelerate. With the addition of Du Qi business, the exemption of taxes, and the abolition of corvee, people’s lives are getting better and better.

In addition, there are many fortifications.

As things go well.

June 28th, this morning arrived at nearly noon. The attendant entered the palace, met Du Qi, and reported: “His Royal Highness, Yi Chanjun is back, and I am asking for a meeting outside the palace.”

Du Qi instructed: “Let him come in.”

“Yes!”

The attendant immediately sent the order.

Not long after, Yi Fusheng entered. After he entered the great hall and stood still, he knelt down like a jade pillar, and bowed his head to salute Du Qi: “His Royal Highness, the minister is incompetent, he has let your Highness down. Trust, the minister arrived in Kuche and was imprisoned by Lord Kuche. Nearly now, because Lord Kuche learned that His Highness had destroyed Turkic and won a great victory, Lord Kuche released the Small Official to let the minister come back.”

“Civil death penalty!”

“Please descend from the palace!”

At this time, Yi Fusheng looked ashamed. He actually failed because he went to Kuche as an envoy this time. After he went to Kuche, the Lord Kuche imprisoned him without saying a word. Until now, the Lord of Kuche knew that Du Qi had taken the kingdom of Yanqi and let him come back. It can be said that his mission this time did not help Du Qi at all.

Du Qi saw Yi Fusheng’s appearance, and said: “If you go on an mission, you will be able to succeed. It is not a mission, you must be successful. If you fail to serve Kuche, it’s good to be able to return. Envoys are extremely dangerous. Get up, this king doesn’t blame you.”

When Yi Fusheng heard it, his heart became more He was ashamed because he did not complete the task. He stood up, stood below and said: “His Royal Highness, the minister came back and brought back the words of the Lord Kuche. However, his words are considered untrustworthy by the minister.” Du Qi said, “What are you talking about?”

Yi Fusheng said resolutely: “Lord Kuche said, congratulate His Highness on his victory. In order to congratulate His Royal Highness, he asked his ministers to bring a lot of wealth and jewels. In addition, Lord Kuche also said that he would like to His Royal Highness said that Small Official pays tribute every year.”

When Du Qi heard this, it was coldly snorted.

An angry look flashed across his eyes.

Proclaim the tribute!

Du Qi does not need to be called a subject to pay tribute, what he wants is to completely control the Kuche country, what he wants is the submission of the entire Kuche country, not the Kuche country but also a country on its own.

Yi Fusheng continued: “His Royal Highness, Kuche, there are many people who are willing to surrender. However, the Kuche nation’s leader pool has vetoed it with a single force, so there was imprisonment in the beginning. As for now, the same is true. There are many people who are willing to surrender. But Chi Ping is unwilling to surrender and chooses to claim his own power.”

Du Qi said: “Chi Ping’s choice to call Small Official only allows you to bring back money and treasures, and then let you Bring some words. Didn’t any other envoys ever dispatch it?”

“Yes!”

Yi Fusheng nodded and answered.

Du Qi said with a sneer: “Chi Ping’s approach is really arrogant! The above table says that Small Officials have not even dispatched envoys. It is estimated that this is a sneer, in fact But I’m worried that sending envoys will be easy to be killed by the king.”

Yi Fusheng said: “His Royal Highness is wise!”

Du Qi said: “Now Yanqi country has been settled. Next is the Kuche country.”

Immediately, Du Qi arranged for someone to call Guo Xiaozheng and Jiang Changzong, and said: “We have already won the country of Yanqi. This king’s plan is to attack What advice do you have for defeating Kuche country.”

Jiang Changzong heard this and said: “His Royal Highness, this time the attack on Kuche country, is the whole army going to fight, or just send a small number of people to fight against Kuche? “

Du Qi said: “This king is still sitting in the country of Yanqi, only sending an army to attack the country of Kuche. After all, the country of Yanqi has just returned, and everything is still unstable. The army suddenly left, and it is very likely that there will be a fire in the rear. . Yanqi country and Gaochang country are slightly different, so for the time being, I will not leave for the time being.”

When Jiang Changzong heard this, he immediately sighed in relief and said: “His Royal Highness is wise!”

What he is worried about is that Du Qi will go with him.

Du Qi has gone, no one is in Yanqi country.

It is very easy to go wrong.

Jiang Changzong continued: “His Royal Highness, since he wants to send troops to attack Kuche, he thinks that soldiers are very fast, and he can send troops directly and attack Kuche with lightning. If you go out at this time, you want to completely defeat Kuche’s army. You must send troops quickly. In addition, the humble post recommends using grenades and Gunpowder to attack forcefully.”

Du Qi said: “That’s what it means.”

Yi Fusheng said: “The humble position used to I went to Kuche country and knew the route. Although the minister had been an envoy to Kuche, he had never made any meritorious service or persuaded Kuche to surrender. However, the Small Official took down the map along the way.”

Du Qi nodded: “Yes! “

Guo Xiaozheng once again said: “His Majesty, in this battle, I think that two generals Xue Rengui and Ma Yuan can be dispatched to fight. As for the country of Yanqi, it is enough to leave General Xiao Yuanqi.”

Du Qi said: “Yes!”

paused, Du Qi said again: “This battle is dominated by Xue Rengui, with Ma Yuan as a supplement.”

Guo Xiaozheng and Jiang Changzong also said about the reforms that Yanqi country needs to carry out. Du Qi was approved one after another. After all the arrangements were made, Yi Fusheng personally passed the order. After all, Yi Fusheng was going to follow the team.

Yi Fusheng entered the army and quickly conveyed Du Qi’s order. Xue Rengui and Ma Yuan received the order. The two mobilized a total of 10,000 troops, of which only 2,000 were cavalry.

This army quickly left the county seat and headed west. The distance from Yanqi country to Kuche country is not far, the army marched for most of the day, and soon after leaving the iron gate to the west of Yanqi country, it entered the territory of Kuche country and went straight to the capital of Kuche country.
