In Qin Dynasty, the hero of the bright moon dominates the world

Chapter 329 Cooperation
"Is this guy finished?"

Li Mang touched his head, feeling a little annoyed.Those Qin people didn't do business all day long, but at night they used reed poles to make walls and block the gaps.

Winter is coming soon, Limang wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to grab some supplies from the Qin people for the winter, but they were so unprogressive, which made him very passive!

"Boss, is Yu Qing from Shushan here?"

Just when Limang was having a headache, Shushan sent an envoy.Although he didn't say what it was, at this time of year, Limang had already guessed that it was probably related to the Qin people's proclaiming the king.

Everything in this house was tailor-made for the people of the Zhurong tribe, so when Yu Qing entered the place where Limang was, she looked very small.

"What are you here for?"

The loud voice echoed in the house made of ashlar. Li Mang sat on the huge chair and looked at Yu Qing, who was very small, without a trace of contempt.

"A few days ago, the lord of the Qin people sent people to Mount Shu to talk about cooperation."

"Cooperation?"

Limang's heart skipped a beat, if Shushan cooperates with that Qin Fengjun, and he is able to hold him here, it will not be good news for Zhu Rong's department.

"The Emperor Feng of the Qin Dynasty wanted to buy the medicinal herbs and brocade from us, so as to find out if there is any need, but I refused."

"Then you are in charge of Mount Shu now?"

Limang keenly noticed a little detail from it, and he was very concerned about Shushan, a force that seemed like a friend or an enemy.

"The Great Elder is in retreat, and the foreign affairs of Shushan will be managed by me for the time being."

"That's great!"

Li Mang smiled, with excitement on his face.

"The power of the Qin people has already touched my territory. How about Shushan and our Zhu Rong department join forces to suppress the arrogance of the Qin people."

Yu Qing shook her head, as if she had some scruples.

"It's better not to act rashly, that Qin man is not easy to mess with."

"Hmph!" Limang laughed disdainfully, "I heard that you have a child, so you have become less timid?"

"I don't approve of dealing with that Qin man not because of Ziqi's birth, but because that Qin man is not easy to deal with."

"What is difficult to deal with!"

Li Mang snorted loudly and stomped his legs, the whole room trembled.

"More than 70 years ago, the Qin people destroyed the Shu Kingdom and drove us here; now, they are approaching step by step. If there is no action, we will soon lose even this size of land."

"Limang, listen to me, the divination of the Great Elder, that Qin man is quite difficult to deal with—"

"Enough!" Li Mang shouted, "I don't see any difference from that Qin man doing weird things all day long. If you Shushan don't want to take care of it, you don't need to say these things."

"Limang, you have to be careful, don't forget what your Zhurong department guards."

"I haven't forgotten, but if I don't take any action and wait until the Qin army's camp in Yingshanjian is built, will my Zhu Rong department still have a way out?"

"Eagle Mountain Stream?" Yu Qing understands the importance of that location, but she is just puzzled, "Qin Jun is moving so fast, has he already built the camp there?"

Just when Yu Qing was vigilant, Li Mang laughed loudly.

"That Qin man is not as good as you said, but a fool."

"What do you mean?"

The tents are continuous.

As a big camp for hoarding materials, it is responsible for the supply of materials for the surrounding camps.

Things were not going well at Yingshan Stream, and the momentum of the entire camp was somewhat sluggish.

Zhao Shuang noticed it, but didn't say anything.

Mo Ya stood in the tent and reported to Zhao Shuang the details of Shu Shan and his party.

"So Shushan didn't agree."

"Shu Mountain is quite closed. Except for the local tribes, they rarely communicate with other places, and they are also quite wary of the Qin people."

"Is that so?"

In the past, the State of Qin destroyed the two countries of Ba and Shu one after another, and gained a huge granary in the rear and a strategic channel to enter the State of Chu. Now, more than 70 years later, this grievance has not been resolved, and even still exists in the hearts of the living old people, and it is passed on word of mouth, affecting the barbarians in Bashu and Sichuan.

"It's okay if Shushan just doesn't want to have anything to do with us, but if Shushan's power joins the Zhurong Ministry's struggle with us, things will become quite troublesome."

Zhao Shuang's foothold was not stable when he came here.Only by building the military stronghold in Yingshanjian can the safety of the land behind be guaranteed.Otherwise, if you put your strength and resources into the struggle with the local barbarians, you will easily fall into the predicament of being outnumbered.

After all, it takes a lot of money to relocate the tribe, and the same goes for the subsequent resettlement.If things don't go well here, Zhao Shuang's huge investment in the early stage will be in vain.

What's more, the 20 mu of land and pastoral area behind Yingshanjian is only a part of it, and it cannot support [-] people.For Zhao Shuang who wants to build a fief, the rest of the territory also needs to be built, and it is impossible to spend it here forever.

"Will Shushan join hands with Zhu Rong's department?"

"Although the barbarians here usually fight each other, they have a surprisingly consistent attitude when facing the Qin people. For so many years, the Qin State has tacitly allowed these forces to be independent of the imperial court, except that the Qin army has to face the six kingdoms of Shandong The feudal princes cannot be distracted, and their own strength is also the reason."

The road from Guanzhong to Shu is very rugged. After the Qin army controlled the plains of Hanzhong and Bashu, and controlled the granaries and transportation channels, they did not further clear these forces. It was also because it was too difficult to attack them. It is not worth expending huge resources against them under the threat of the United States.

What's more, in the continuous mountains of Bashu, it is impossible for the Qin people to emigrate on a large scale. Even after the Yi people are wiped out, it will not take many years for the Yi people from other places to enter.

"If Shushan merges with Zhu Rong's Ministry, it will take a lot of effort. No matter what, the affairs of Junshang's territory will be delayed."

"Indeed, that's why the military stronghold at Yingshanjian must be built as soon as possible."

Using this as a base and focusing on defense can save a lot of power and resources.

"Just, will it be that easy?"

When Mo Ya came here, he also heard about what Zhao Shuang had done, and knew that the morale of the Qin army was low at the moment.

"It's okay."

Zhao Shuang raised his head, and saw that the sunlight entering the big tent from the skylight was becoming increasingly dim, and it was almost nightfall.

"I have prepared some things. Tonight, you will lead someone to bury these things under the reeds. Remember, don't be discovered."

"My subordinate understands."

Mo Crow lowered his head, and knew what those things were?When Zhao Shuang ordered them to enter this place, he asked them to buy things like sulfur and saltpeter, but he didn't know what to do with them?

"Remember, don't use an open flame."

"promise!"
