Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 45: The Far View
Lu Man gradually heard some clues from the conversation between the two, and there was also a knowing smile on his face, and he licked his lips excitedly, "Well, Helian, as expected of a professional background, You have a unique vision, you can see it accurately, hehe, it’s a good idea, and it’s worth discussing. Boss Liang, what Helian said is very feasible.”
"Boss Liang, I have done some investigations, and the situation in the Indian kingdom next door to us is in chaos, and there is a lot of room to take advantage of. We taught the Punjabs a lesson last year, and now these guys They are smart enough not to come to our side at all, but their enmity with the Hyderabad tribe has deepened. Not only have they plundered the caravans of the Hyderabad tribe, but they have now developed to rob the other party's population and They were sold as slaves. I heard that the Hyderabad tribe returned them in their own way. They also started to act like the Punjab civilians. I didn’t see that the slave market here in Shuangdui has prospered a lot. Indian There are a lot of slaves in the Indian tribe, and they were bought cheaply by the slave traders of the two tribes from the nobles of their respective tribes. I heard that the price of Indian slaves in the Komini in the south and the Robbie territory in the north also dropped sharply. Probably because there are too many people coming to help." He Lianbo obviously had some ideas long ago, but he just took this opportunity to say them.
Lu Man also groaned strangely: "Hey, just right, Mr. Xiao mentioned in the letter that the slave trade tax rate will be raised uniformly. I am still worried about whether those guys will be dissatisfied. Since the business Xinglong, they probably have nothing to say."
"Hmph, what's your tax? Those guys are all making a lot of money, how can they care about you? Now that the price of Indian slaves has dropped sharply, I don't think we can both Young slave merchants are also buying in large quantities. I heard that the big families headed by them have hoarded hundreds of slaves. Even Chunxiang Building has bought a lot, and most of the girls there are Indians. A woman from the An family." He Lianbo said with spit flying all over the place.
"Hehe, no wonder, you got the news from Chunxiang Building, Helian, your sources of information are really extensive." Liang Chongxin also gave him a sideways glance with a half-smile.
"Uh, I learned about it by chance." He Lianbo laughed awkwardly, and quickly changed the topic back: "Now the people of Hyderabad are also unceremoniously attacking the Punjabs, the Punjabs Of course, they are even more unwilling to be reconciled to their descendants. They have the Tik tribe as their backing. They even sent troops into the depths of the Hyderabad tribe's territory to plunder the wealth, people and livestock. It is said that there have been several small-scale conflicts with the Hyderabad tribe's army. The two sides have hurt each other, and the fire is burning more and more."
"Helian, do you mean that we will collect reward fees for the side of the war, or just grab the same as the two of them? I am afraid that neither of these two methods will be approved by Mr. Li?" After Lu Man got excited, he gradually clam down.
"Hey, of course it's not an obvious robbery. We can dress up as Indians and rush in to fish in troubled waters, and make a lot of money. As long as we plan well, there will be a lot of money." He Lianbo talked about his old business, Nature is familiar with the road.
"Then you have to choose your target carefully. If you plunder treasures and people like the two of them, it won't be of much value, and the target is too big and obvious, so it's not worthwhile." Lu Man carefully calculated the gains and losses.
"Who said we're going to be like them? Looting people is the most clumsy way, with bad influence, thin profits, and high risks. The big money is stolen by second-hand traffickers." He Lianbo shook his head disdainfully, with a look Looks like an expert, "Gold is rich in the Indian Kingdom, and the output of gold mines and gold sand is extremely high, and their people use gold decorations as the most noble symbol. The nobles in the country are proud of who owns the most gold. Many nobles And arty, imitating those nobles in the western mainland who like to collect antiques. The nobles with a little foundation have a lot of gold antiques in their homes. Hehe, this is an inexhaustible cornucopia. It depends on whether we dare to touch them. "
He Lianbo's extremely provocative rhetoric moved Liang Chongxin, who had never spoken up, as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Luzon Garrison, he had a clear understanding of the domestic situation of this huge and weak neighbor to the west. , to be honest, he still spent a little time researching this complicated neighborhood.
To put it bluntly, although this nominal kingdom has a vast territory and a large population, internal separatism has long permeated the entire country, with a complex composition of tribes, mutually hostile religious beliefs, and uneven development speeds of various forces. The contradiction in the distribution of vested interests, all this has caused this dynasty, which has a glorious history not inferior to the empire it belongs to, to fall into serious decline. In Liang Chongxin's view, its collapse is only a matter of time. Whoever will complete this historical mission is nothing more than a giant of clay in the wind and rain, who will collapse to the ground and be reduced to ashes when the time comes.
However, none of its people who lived in the body of a giant seemed to be aware of this. Several major tribes fought for hegemony for their own interests, making the originally crisis-ridden dynasty even more precarious. Fertile land, rich resources, and a large population make the nobles living at the top of the society even more extravagant, while the people living at the bottom are poorly clothed and hungry. Fleeing from the famine, the only thing to do is to change children and eat, otherwise the development of the Northwest would not have attracted such a large number of Indians to move here.
The Hyderabad tribe has declined but is still holding on to the central government, while the Tik and Yakuan tribes in the south have been reluctant to be subordinated, so the intensification of contradictions is naturally inevitable. It's just an early bird hanging out. How can I take advantage of the current favorable situation to truly benefit the Northwest and Northern Luzon? Liang Chongxin thought about this question silently.
Although the military strength of the various tribes of India is far less powerful than that of its neighboring countries, the huge population resources make them have no shortage of soldiers. Of course, it does not mean that the number of soldiers can determine the strength of the army, otherwise The Hyderabad tribe has twice as many troops as the Luobei people, but they are still repeatedly beaten by the Luobei people and forced to accept humiliating conditions. I remember Master Li once said to himself that Indians will be good farmers, workers and businessmen, but they will definitely not be the best soldiers. Maybe this sentence is a bit too much, but it also shows the characteristics of the Indian nation.
Is it directly involved in supporting the Hyderabad Ministry to launch a counterattack against the Punjab Ministry, or is it secretly and indirectly supporting in other ways to obtain financial help from the other party? Or, as He Lianbo said, take special measures to make a fortune first? Several ideas were circling in Liang Chongxin's mind, making him a little hesitant. It is obviously inappropriate to directly intervene now. Master Li will not agree to another large-scale war in the west at this moment, unless there is a huge change in the situation in the east. It is hard to say how much more realistic benefits can be obtained by covert and indirect support, and taking extraordinary measures like He Lianbo said will also bear considerable risks. There are advantages and disadvantages in several ways.
Seeing that the Northern Luzon military commander had been thinking silently for a long time but still had no intention of speaking, He Lianbo said impatiently: "Boss Liang, anyway, Mr. Li has transferred the military power of Northern Luzon and the countries of the Western Regions." Entrusted to you, hey, you don’t give orders to the foreign king, you care so much about him? As long as you think it’s appropriate, you can do it according to your opinion. After the fight, I don’t believe that this Indian can still turn over My God? At worst, let’s just return it and treat it as nothing, and it’s fine as a military training.”
Hearing He Lianbo's casual remarks, Liang Chong's confidence seemed to be suddenly pierced by something. The military affairs of Luzon and the countries of the Western Regions were entrusted to him, so he could have a good time within the scope of his authority, right or wrong won't be known until the end, so he would not dare to give it a try if he was afraid of wolves and tigers. How can I know the result behind it?
Nodding heavily, Liang Chongxin flashed a confident light on his face, "Well, it seems that this is an opportunity. Right now, our northern Luzon is relatively quiet, and there may not be any divisions with mountain pillars stationed in the Western Regions. What happened to the accident, we can just take this opportunity to train our troops. Now we can discuss it carefully, study a surefire strategy, and see which method is the best."
Seeing Liang Chongxin nodding his head in support of his opinion, Helianbo's face flushed immediately, his dark yellow eyes burst into brilliance, he stood up all of a sudden, rubbed his hands vigorously and said with a smile: "Okay, Boss Liang, You make a big plan first, I will take care of the errands below, let's fiddle with those rich and unkind guys in the west this time, if you don't get him a few million gold coins, I won't be called He Lianbo!"
"Don't get excited, we have to find the right target first, and other measures have to keep up." Liang Chongxin shook his hand steadily to signal He Lianbo to sit down ~IndoMTL.com~ and said calmly: "After making a decision Move, Helian, you are also an old soldier, why are you so restless?"
"Hey, Boss Liang, I'm so excited. I've held back for so long, and my hands are itching to rest when I have something to do." He Lianbo scratched his head and sat down embarrassedly.
"Boss Liang, what do you mean...?" Lu Man also knew that this colleague must have his own ideas.
"Well, sooner or later the Indian chaos will happen. Mr. Li has already led us to the Hyderabad line. We might as well use it. Luman, since the iron mine in the north of you has already entered During the peak production season, Shuangduifu can naturally build several ironware factories. As for who invests, I think you must find a way. It is estimated that the demand for weapons and ironware by the Indians will increase greatly when there is a war. We can also do it here. It’s a good price. I want to contact the Hyderabad Department immediately to see if we can send some military instructors to help their troops improve their combat effectiveness. Of course, it won’t have much effect in a short period of time, but we can gradually increase the number of troops in Indiana. Expand our influence domestically and lay the foundation for the future."
What Liang Chongxin said made Lu Man and He Lianbo feel ashamed. In just a short time, the other party has already considered the future situation of the entire Indian Kingdom from a more profound perspective. Let the two feel admirable.
"Of course, the method proposed by Helian is the fastest and most direct means for us to gain benefits. This requires careful setting of goals, and a lot of preliminary work in terms of intelligence, logistics, and public opinion. All together, I don't think it is impossible to win a big prize." A proud smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Liang Chongxin cast his gaze out of the window.
