It wasn't until Jin Ge left with the others that everyone, who had maintained a nonchalant look, felt a little more relaxed. When it comes to recruiting people, no one can be said to be proficient in it, but they have only heard a little about it. No one feels that they have any bastard spirit. This kind of thing is probably only seen in dramas. During the meal just now, and when he said goodbye to Jin Ge at the end, pretending to be reserved and just nodding slightly to express his attitude, Chengbang was extremely nervous and awkward. Now, I can take it easy and relax. "Peng Ru, are you sure this is really useful?" Chengbang asked. "I don't know, but the information is limited now. I can only estimate the other party's temperament and the situation in Black Wind Village. We don't have too many people to play like this" Peng Ze said helplessly. He knows how important he is, which is different from several other people with similar skills. Regarding intelligence work, even Jiang Mei felt that everyone should discuss it? But Chengbang felt that since everyone didn't understand this matter, let's not discuss it. Those who know more will be too busy to take care of it in the future. Besides, it's better not to let outsiders drag down insiders. Therefore, Peng Ze can basically make decisions with one word when it comes to matters such as dealing with intelligence, setting up secret spies, etc., and everyone else will definitely cooperate fully. It's just that I feel troublesome and feel bad, so I asked him to make something delicious and fun for everyone, but he will never be a hindrance. This was how he dealt with Jin Ge this time. After careful consideration, and after finding someone to collect a lot of information overnight, he suggested to Cheng Bang and Jiang Mei to let Jin Ge go: After Cheng Bang and Jiang Mei listened to his proposal to unload the ship, , almost agreed immediately. He also agreed that everyone would help with the acting and leave a deep enough impression on Jin Ge. This and the coordination really couldn't be higher. "Although Jin Ge is the third-in-command in Heifeng Village, he has always been an errand boy. He can't escape when trouble comes. When there are fat sheep, he might be allowed to stay in the village, but the second master of the family doesn't have the right to eat. Ji was so ugly that at least some scraps were left for him, but he also supported the orphans, widows, and old parents who had been left behind by the people in the village. He was very hard-pressed with money, but he still persevered. It can be said that he is still very good, but he is just living in a den of thieves. You can tell by the way he treats his brothers and his sister, he is not a bad person, but his mind is still a little slippery. If so, it may have to fall on him. His influence in the village is not small. In addition, it is also because we really have too few people. If we want to look at Yangshan Camp, we must leave at least a dozen or twenty people. Old man, there are only about this number who can take over Black Wind Village, maybe half on each side, but there are more than ten or twenty people, even if we are the main combat force, we can't manage it on a daily basis. The various arrangements are going to bring us down. Therefore, how to use the old people of Heifeng Village is very important: I don¡¯t know the character of their village leader and second master, but at least Jin Ge seems to be decent. He seems to be reliable, so we can only reluctantly design him. In fact, it can't be said to be a design. I just feel a pang in my heart and wait to see his reaction when we come to kill him. Anyway, there is no benefit in killing him. However, letting him go has set a nail for Black Wind Village. I think he should know which master is better." Cheng Bang curled his lips. This was probably the beginning. The reason why he keeps his mouth shut and doesn't speak much is that even if he has a seemingly good boss, if this boss is a teenager talking about things, his credibility will plummet, right? "However, Uncle Jiang, can we control Heifeng Village if it really puts him at a disadvantage?" Chengbang was still a little worried: "That place is not small, and it can accommodate a caravan, and it can accommodate two to three thousand people. There are usually hundreds of people stationed there for a long time, although it is indeed a very suitable place for business, but with just a few people like us this is Chu State. If we were in Yue State, Sister Chen could attract thousands of people just by shouting. Wan, here, how many people do we Yue people have to deceive to take down Heifeng Village?" Chengbang's doubts made everyone laugh. Jiang Mei smiled and said: "Bang'er, you probably don't know much about the situation in Yue and Chu. Although the courts of Yue and Chu have gradually taken back power in recent years, each family and tribe is still relatively strong. You Seeing that the State of Chu had relegated the Du family to Yong'an, it didn't dare to touch them at all. Otherwise, how could the Du family have risen again in just a few years, no matter how well-educated their children were? Impossible. In addition, the same is true for the Yue State. If the Liang family hadn't been so powerful, how could Liang Xun have left the border and central government in such chaos after joining the Chu State? Do you want to rely on the alliance between families?" Ye Yichen said helplessly: "That's true. The Yue country has a strong national concept, mostly because of the military prowess of the soldiers in the wars and the wars. All families and tribes will not only care aboutSelf. The Chu State is worse than the Yue State in this regard. Until now, most of their armies have not been able to be directly mobilized by the emperor. After all, there are still nine camps in the Yue Kingdom, and no matter which one they belong to, they are all very loyal to the imperial court. Therefore, as long as you can become the overlord of one side and can intimidate those subordinates, even if some of them may care about the difference between Yue Chu and Chu, it should not be a big problem. What's more, in the eyes of the common people, the state affairs of the Yue State were actually much more tolerant and kinder than those of the Chu State. Peng Ze shrugged and said, "This may be one of the reasons why Yue lost so badly in this war at the beginning." ¡± Ye Yichen didn¡¯t say anything. Starting from his grandfather and father, the succession of power for several generations was actually very strategic. They continued to implement benevolent policies, persuaded the major families to implement them together, and even used this as a reason to punish some families who refused to implement them. To destroy them is actually a strategy to enhance the people's national concept and strengthen their loyalty to Yue and the Ye family. However, it seems that the implementation of these strategies is too slow. It's a pity that my father's temperament is tolerant, and sometimes he seems a little indecisive, and my brother inherited the throne during the war between the two countries, and I'm afraid he can't care about Peng Ze's opinions now. , in fact, it can be regarded as a collective complaint among the Vietnamese government against the long-term lenient politics of the royal family. However, this matter was finally solved. Although it was not enough to dispel all Chengbang's doubts, it still Let him not worry that they are not enough to control Heifeng Stronghold and its surrounding areas. The conditions of Heifeng Village are very good. You can indeed attack, retreat or defend once you enter. There are also very rich resources that can be managed. In addition, you can control the headwind channel, which makes the temptation even greater. Jiang Mei thought for a while and said: "Speaking of the Nifeng Gorge Road, I seem to remember that someone used to operate this gorge road. At the beginning, the relationship between Yue and Chu was close because they had to resist the pressure of their powerful neighbors in the north and west. The relationship between the two countries is very close. The Niufeng Gap Road can be traveled in any weather and season. Although it needs maintenance, it can be maintained by collecting taxes from commercial travel and relying on the scabies stations along the way. , and even gave birth to a very powerful family: the Qianyang Rao family. Rao Shiyi is the current governor of Xuanjincheng in Yue State, and is a descendant of the Rao family. "Ye Yichen was stunned for a moment and said, "This is true in Wuxiang. Later, the Rao family seemed to have gradually turned to maritime business due to the decline of the Gorge Channel, and they did quite well." Chengbang thought for a while and said, "Since the Niufeng Gorge Channel is such an important passage, why was it abandoned later? Even if the two countries are at war, many roads are still there. " "Because of the floating channel," Ye Yichen said: "Although the headwind channel is open all year round, the maintenance cost of the channel is not low. The benefits are very limited. Although it can control the pain between the two countries, only some merchants will follow the command of the Rao family, especially some flying boats after they become reliable and not as expensive as before. , Yunshui has begun to increase in number, and it is more cost-effective to transport small and expensive goods through these. Even if there are weather conditions, because the flight speed is very fast in the air, it only takes a short time to be delivered, which is better than Nifengxia. The road is so convenient and fast. Moreover, why do you think that your whole family is ruined by this passage? The Rao family is still one of the richest people in the country. They are even the only family in the country that can make long-distance travel of more than ten thousand miles. The Flying Boat family alone can feed them for several lifetimes." Chengbang was stunned for a moment and said, "I didn't expect their transformation to be so ferocious." He thought for a moment and looked at the map. Said: "I promised Du Yueru to send her a batch of medicine, and there are still some days left. There is nothing to do these days. How about we go to Nifeng Gorge Road to explore?" "Good idea!" Ye Yichen 's eyes lit up. If her maid Wan'er saw it, she would probably be even more surprised. At first, she was unwilling to get involved in lively and new things. She always followed the path that others have walked and did what others have done. Your Highness, how could it be like this now? Others clearly agree with the idea. It turns out that these people probably like silence and dislike movement. However, after experiencing life in the mountains, everyone understands what "life lies in movement". ¡°What should we do with all the things piled up here now?¡± Chen Wenxing asked. "Let the owner of the warehouse here help take care of it and send a message to Du Yueru. With the Du family watching, do you think anyone dares to swallow our things? Du Yueru and She Yueru will never let this happen. That's right" Peng Fa smiled and said confidently. "Then it's settled, we'll get ready and set off tomorrow. Tomorrow night we should be able to settle down in Jiangtan Town, right?" Chengbang folded his basket and said. "Okay. I'm going to deliver a letter to Du Yueru." Peng Ze said happily. He seems to be very keen on getting closer to the Du family, especially Miss Du, who is really an interesting character.
