Steel Dynasty - Chapter 739

[Chapter 738: Upgraded Slave Catching Method]

Liang Dahai had a cold face.

Not long after Yue Yun sent back the information from Haigu City, news spread in Qingzhou City about going to Goryeo to capture slaves.

Some businessmen have even gone to Dengzhou, preparing to go to Goryeo to enjoy the dividends of this war.

All this made Liang Dahai, the number one human trafficker in the Chongqing Kingdom, naturally very unhappy, because when he got the news, he regarded Korea as his slave hunting ground.

But while he was angry, he also felt a little strange, because such confidential information would not usually be spread out so easily.

It was this kind of doubt that made him go to the camp and prepare to ask thoroughly.

“I asked Pang Shoufu to release this news.”

Xiao Ming gave Liang Dahai an accurate answer in the imperial study room, which made Liang Dahai’s eyes widen.

“Your Majesty, why do you want to hand over the slave-catching business to these merchants? They have no money to support this war.” Liang Dahai said confused.

Xiao Ming frowned. He had just dealt with the steamship matter two days ago, and Yue Yun’s battle report came from Haigu City.

In the battle report, Yue Yun told the truth about his plan, and also mentioned his plan to seize the opportunity to capture slaves.

He agreed with Yue Yun’s approach of supporting Li Chengzai to manage Haigu City as a puppet. Countless histories have proven that the easiest way to rule a strange country is to use barbarians to control barbarians. Otherwise, huge war costs will be required.

He also agreed with the matter of slave hunting. After all, there was no justice in this bloody era. When the Europeans continued to exterminate the indigenous people, there was only profit and no mercy.

But for him, catching slaves is just the lowest method of obtaining slaves, and this method is most suitable for businessmen to use.

The matter of catching slaves at the national level is naturally not very glorious, so there are overseas workers, so he said: “Every businessman can do this matter of catching slaves, why let you, Liang Dahai, do it personally? I now have a I have something more important to tell you. “

Liang Dahai scratched his head. Xiao Ming’s words made him a little confused, because he has been doing this business all these years, but now Xiao Ming means to change. .

“Please make it clear, Your Majesty.” Liang Dahai has a sense of crisis that he is about to lose his job.

After pondering for a while, he said, “Goryeo is currently experiencing frequent wars and the people are displaced. Many people are starving and it seems that they cannot survive. If at this time we give them a chance to go to Dayu to build a railway with food and accommodation included, Do

you think they are willing? “

“Of course they are,” Liang Dahai said without hesitation: “People in troubled times are worse than dogs. As long as they agree, at least they will not die of hunger.”

“Yes, I think so too, so. This time, I want you to take a break from catching slaves and go to Haigu City to recruit a group of Koreans to build the railway here for Dayu,” Xiao Ming said.

Railway construction is a very arduous task in this era. It can be said that every railway line is filled with blood and tears.

Now that the six states need to build railways, manpower is one of the problems. However, it will be much slower to build railways with the help of Da Yu’s own labor.

That’s why he came up with the idea of recruiting Korean people to come to Dayu to build the railway. He gave the Korean people a meal and they were responsible for building the railway. This was a fair deal.

Relatively speaking, the chance of dying on the railway line is much lower than the chance of dying in Korea today.

Liang Dahai suddenly understood, and he immediately laughed, “Your Majesty, this is not a slave hunt, but it is better than a slave hunt.”

Xiao Ming lightly tapped the table with his left hand, “You are smart, and you can do this better than that.” A few slave-catching ships are much more useful.”

“Yes, Your Majesty, I understand and will set off for Haigu City now,” Liang Dahai said excitedly.

In fact, compared to the role of a slave catcher who walks in the shadows, he also yearns for a glamorous identity. The method Xiao Ming provides him now undoubtedly allows him to have a change in identity.

Nodding, Xiao Ming told Liang Dahai a few more words before letting him go back. This time Liang Dahai was in the light and the merchant’s slave ship was in the dark, which would definitely allow him to get the maximum benefit from Goryeo.

And these interests will promote the country of Chongqing to accelerate forward on the road of industrial revolution.

…

Shengdu, golden tent.

The Korean envoys could not kneel down. In front of them was Dorgo, the Khan of the Golden Horde. Also in the camp were Beishan, Wushugu, Anba, Bodo, Erhe and other Golden Horde Khanates. Taiji.

“Khan, the Chongqing Kingdom has bullied others too much. Now it not only occupies Haigu City, but also threatens to attack Liujing City. I hope Khan can send troops to attack them!”

Liu Shijing, the Korean envoy, told Dolgo with snot and tears. Crying and complaining, like a little woman being bullied.

There was a burst of laughter in the camp. Instead of feeling angry, Bei Shan and others were amused by the humble appearance of the Korean envoy.

Liu Shijing raised his head when he heard the sound. The happier this guy laughed, the more miserable he cried.

Dorgo stopped the laughter of the Taijis at this time. His face was serious, “The Chongqing Kingdom is pressing forward step by step, but you can still laugh. If Goryeo is occupied by the Chongqing Kingdom, we will be flanked by the enemy. From now on It’s not that we attack Dayu, but Dayu can attack the Khanate at any time.”

“Father Khan is wise.” Bei Shan smiled, but he knew the crisis of the current situation. To him, this Goryeo was indeed a dog. , but if the dog is killed by the enemy, they will have no dog to guard the door.

“Dayu is no longer what it used to be with its firearms. Their capture of Liujing City is definitely not a joke. Father Khan, we really need to send the Khanate army to help Goryeo recapture Haigu City.” Beishan said.

After the Chinese New Year, the atmosphere in the Golden Horde became increasingly solemn, and those living on the grasslands and in the Changbai Mountain area keenly felt that a protracted war was coming.

Because they also experienced this atmosphere during the more than ten years of war between the Golden Horde and the Ottoman Empire.

These days, the order that men over the age of thirteen must join the army further confirms their thinking.

Wu Shugu continued: “According to the information that I got, the attack on the city of Chongqing was actually just that one move. Speaking of which, it relied on artillery to bombard the city gates. We can also do this, but we must ensure that our artillery Not to be destroyed by the artillery of Dayu.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Santai Jiamba said cruelly: “This is not easy. This time, let Gaoli drive the people in front of our artillery. When the artillery is close to the city gate. If we shoot again when the time comes, we can break through the city gate of Haigu City in one fell swoop. As long as the city gate is broken, the Dayu soldiers in Haigu City are not our opponents. “

Sitai Jiboduo nodded and said:” If this method can conquer Haigu City, it will definitely be able to conquer the passes of Dayu Kingdom, and maybe we can conquer Dayu Kingdom this year. “
