Chapter 950: It’s better to choose a day than to hit it

Chapter 950 It’s better to choose a day than to hit it

Fifty thousand people is not a small number. Coupled with the troops and horses they currently raise, the daily food consumption is very huge.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the granary full of grain, which meant she had a golden finger. If there was no space, the huge consumption of grain alone would be enough to bring them down.

She doesn't even bother to hide it now.

Of course, there is already a rumor around Yanmen Pass.

Jiang Xiaoxiao from Jiang Jiajun is the reincarnation of the God of Thunder.

Whoever dares to go against Jiang Jiajun will definitely be struck by thunder and lightning.

Before Jiang Xiaoxiao sent Li Yu to find a way to contact the guard at Yanmen Pass.

News has come from Yanmen Pass.

The prefect of Yanmen Pass personally brought his troops to their Lijia Village, wanting to see the famous Young Master Jiang of the Jiang Jiajun.

Prefect Wang Caicheng came with the government officials and a team of 500 officers and soldiers from the city guard.

They naturally come to get news.

Lijiacun was actually able to capture two capable generals from the Turks.

This is definitely not the point. The point is that these villagers captured the Turkic king and did not send him to their city to receive the reward.

Moreover, he also sent a private letter to the Turkic king.

The Turkic king sent 10,000 horses, 50,000 slaves, and countless cattle and sheep.

No matter how you look at it, this matter has become very big.

If the Turks brought back the two great kings and led troops to attack the city in anger, it would not be the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city who would suffer.

And can these villagers outside the village stop the Turkic army?

Of course the other question is how can these villagers collect these things without making a fuss about it.

Could these things be enjoyed by some small villagers?

Those are 10,000 horses. If they are sent to the military camp in the city, how many more cavalry can be added, and there are also those cattle and sheep.

There was a snowstorm this year. Not only the Turks suffered from the snowstorm, but also their soldiers and civilians outside Yanmen Pass.

These cattle and sheep can make up for a large material gap.

Of course what the prefect can think of is how much wealth can be exchanged for these things?

You can also ask him to spend a certain amount of silver to pay homage to the superiority, and transfer him back to the capital by the way, so that he can save himself from suffering from the wind and sand blowing at the border, and having to worry about the attacks of the Turks and the people here every day. The military and civilians are uneasy.

The prefect thinks so, and of course the garrison thinks so too.

The two discussed it, so they immediately sent troops to the village to collect these things, and by the way, they reprimanded the villagers, which was simply daring.

Although some of these border residents are as bold as barbarians, they are weak after all. Without the garrison of these garrison troops, how could these villagers survive?

In their minds, the fact that these villagers were able to defeat the Turkic barbarians and obtain these properties was not all thanks to their garrison.

What makes people jealous is of course the generous supplies received in this batch, 10,000 horses!

If these horses are put on the market for sale, every Turkic horse will be a good horse.

Even if the worst horse is sold at the horse market, each horse will cost between 200 taels of silver and 800 taels of silver.

This is literally millions of taels of silver.

You must know that there are not many cavalry in the imperial court. It is because of the lack of war horses that it costs a lot to buy good Turkic horses. This is also the reason why they cannot win the war with the Turks every year.

The Turkic cavalry is much stronger than them.

Turkic horses run fast and have long endurance.

Turks are natural herders and good horse breeders, and they have a large number of horses.

How can these horses not make people jealous? These are 10,000 horses.

The other thing is that this time there are countless cattle and sheep. Although those cattle and sheep are secondary, there are still 50,000 slaves.

Although there were 50,000 slaves, they all seemed to be old, weak, sick and disabled. The problem was that the number of residents in the frontier fortress was decreasing year by year. They could leave early and they were almost gone.

The army repaired the city wall and fortifications in order to stabilize the local area.

A large number of laborers need to be recruited every year, and these laborers have long been in short supply.

These 50,000 slaves now are not a population of 50,000.

As long as you give them some food to eat so that they don't starve to death, there will be people to work with.

This is definitely a great political achievement, and you can declare your military exploits to the court.

The garrison general Wang Siyi had already planned to fabricate a war that was not in vain.

Reporting to the imperial court the fact that he had captured the Turkic king in exchange for the Turks' tribute was a great achievement for him. With such a great military achievement, he could definitely be promoted to a higher rank.

The large group of people came directly to Lijia Village. Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others had already received the letter.

Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't know the other party's purpose, and she didn't want to know the other party's purpose. Anyway, she had already set her sights on the defenders of Yanmen Pass.

Li Yu has been in contact with his old department recently.

Although the final surrender time has not yet been determined, a large number of people have already made up their mind.

Especially after they obtained 10,000 army horses, 50,000 slaves, and countless cattle and sheep with great fanfare this time, their small village has such ability, and the 10,000 villagers they trained on the spot actually Can defeat the Turks.

　　Many officers who were still hesitating had already made up their mind.

“Sir, the prefect is here to do bad things. These people must have plotted to get this ransom in your hands!”

Li Yu knew very well that these officials, like vampire leeches, filled their own pockets, falsely claimed military merit, and framed Zhongliang. There was nothing they dared not do.

The current imperial court is a quagmire.

It is difficult for those who are in it to be alone. Those who have ambitions and ideals have long been excluded from the court. Like them, they can only watch the court become incompetent day by day.

"Don't leave if he dares to come. I'm just trying to capture Yanmen Pass, so I might as well take it another day instead of catching the sun and capture it all at once. We also have to be careful and cautious. I want Jiang Jiajun's flag to be planted everywhere. In the north and south, we should cherish and know that there is still a pure land in Yanmen Pass.

The people still have a place to live and work in peace and contentment. Since the country is about to perish, then we will change to a new world. "

Jiang Xiaoxiao meant that the new world was naturally a new reform strategy for governing the country. Unfortunately, Li Yu thought Jiang Xiaoxiao was ambitious and wanted to be a monarch.

Although Jiang Xiaoxiao was born as a girl, there are many examples of female monarchs in history.

Miss Jiang really has that ability, and she has an outstanding business acumen. Just look at how long it has been, snowflakes and salt have spread almost all over the country, and glass cement, which is something only found in the vassal country, is now readily available here.

Don’t call it a black technology grenade, this thing is really worthy of its name.

Like a thunderbolt in the hand.

He didn’t know who else was supporting Jiang Xiaoxiao, because Jiang Xiaoxiao had never bothered with food and grass.
