Chapter 1717: The Righteous One Exchanges Fish for Horse
"Hurry up, you eight keep up, don't ask others to come around."
Lan Bao gave the order with a serious expression, and the people on the Yulin Flying Cavalry reacted quickly and immediately took the people to other places.
"What's wrong?" Nantian Daoyang asked in a low voice, seeing his son-in-law's solemn look.
"We can't take action immediately. Both sides are in the dark right now. They will wait until they catch more people from the Jishou family and get enough evidence before they publicize it. The master will be famous."
Lan Bao looked at the eight rescued people and said to his father-in-law.
"What's the difference?" Nantian Daokang has never experienced such a battle. He can fight with weapons, but not in war.
"Get rid of the Yoshitomo and Yoshimura families at once, including those who are officials from the Yoshitomo family in Heijo Kyo. Annex the two families and make them our own."
Lan Bao knows that the families in Japan currently have little fighting power, and even an organization of dozens or hundreds of people can be considered large-scale.
It is easy to destroy others, but difficult to find excuses, unless you have agreed to launch a big war against Japan.
The proprietor is obviously not prepared to occupy the Japanese country now, and the proprietor seems not to care about the Japanese country.
The focus of the Tang Dynasty was on the Turks and Tubo. I feel that the proprietor paid more attention to the white food and food, and wanted to train a lot of navy to bypass them.
"Keep it secret?" Nantian Daokang understood and looked at the eight rescued people.
"Father-in-law, don't kill anyone, keep it secret and ask them to stay for two days." Lan Bao always felt that his father-in-law wanted to silence him.
"No kill, no kill!" Nantian Daokang smiled.
Nantian Kazuko said from the side: "They have saved a lot of iron tools and want to send them to Pingcheng Kyoto for officials of the Yoshiju family to pave the way for promotion."
"Huh?" Lan Bao suddenly turned to look at his wife: "Hezi, you..."
"When I was in the Tang Dynasty, I used to talk to Princess Yongmu, Queen Wang, Wu Jieyu and others." Nantian Hezi showed a shy smile.
"Ah!" Lan Bao said he understood. Those women, even if they didn't study any matter deliberately, what they said casually were all overt and covert fights.
Your Majesty has many women, why can only a few of them live in Lijiazhuangzi?
Especially that Xiaolan, other women are surrounded by maids and eunuchs to check and balance each other, but Princess Yongmu only has Xiaolan in charge.
"Hezi, you should learn more from Princess Yongmu and don't count on Dongzhu Li." Lan Bao said to Nantian Hezi with a little helplessness.
Nantian Kazuko still looked shy: "I know!"
"And Xiaolan, learn from her cleverness. She is equally good to Dongzhu Li, no tricks." Lan Bao reminded again.
"She doesn't dare to scheme." Nantian Kazuko smiled, no longer shy.
"Don't move these iron objects around. Put them away and don't move them any more. There are fingerprints on them. We can extract them if necessary."
The leader of Yulin Feiqiu who came back pointed at so many iron weapons, he had the means.
Yulin Feiqi must know how to conduct reconnaissance. In some cases, quickly obtaining other people's fingerprints is a routine operation.
Everyone carried them carefully, the captured ones were detained, and the injured were taken care of.
Jiangchuan frightened the Jishou family, telling him that he would beat the Jishou family and then torture his family to death unless he cooperated.
People who would rather die than tell are afraid, if their family members are gone, who will they keep secrets for?
"These things cost a lot of lives."
Nantian Daoyang lamented that Sapphire was very capable in blacksmithing and smelting, especially in handling silver and copper.
"So we must vigorously develop productivity. Only when productivity is improved, people will not fight for iron weapons, but use iron weapons to fight for other things."
Sapphire said a joke, the fight is never because of something specific.
"You don't want iron, isn't this iron good?" Nantian Daokang wanted to exchange iron for money, but he had one million coins lying around.
"It's not worth it. Li Dongzhu helped find many iron ore and coal mines in Datang. Even people in remote areas can exchange five pounds of eggs for an iron kitchen knife."
Lan Bao shook his head, "If you don't want iron, you will have to smelt it again if you take it back."
Nowadays, the iron in Japan is not good. It takes a lot of effort to melt the iron ore, and it is even more difficult to smelt it. You have to blow it hard with a bellows and forge it until it is red-hot.
I want to turn it into molten iron, but I hope to burn firewood...
On the contrary, copper, silver, and gold have low melting points.
To smelt metal, it's best to turn firewood into charcoal and then blast it with air.
As for the smelting technology of the Tang Dynasty, charcoal has long been eliminated.
Nantian Daokang looked envious. Datang didn't even give him a replacement for the iron, so it was very difficult for him to get some iron.
Who doesn’t know that it’s better to use an iron plow for plowing? Bronze would be fine too, but unfortunately it’s not available.
"The clan has a lot of iron tools." After sighing with others, Nantian Daokang found something to be proud of again.
Now every Nantian family has iron kitchen knives, iron sickles, and iron pots.
There are more iron weapons, which Datang sent last time.
Those good bows and arrows are reluctant to use. The iron of arrowheads is better than the iron of kitchen knives.
And that steel knife, look at my own iron knife, there will be a gap when you cut the iron knife.
The twenty men of the Yulin Flying Cavalry began to load things and bring supplies to the people in front, mainly compressed biscuits.
They rested for a while, and later they had to march on their way and wear leggings.
"What's the use of the cloth leggings?" Nantian Daokang didn't understand the situation.
"It reduces varicose veins in the legs and makes walking less tiring. I also bring two extra sets of ropes. The leggings are made of good cloth and are strong and durable."
Lan Bao had learned it before, and when he told his father-in-law, there was a look of intolerance in his eyes.
Yulin Feiqi wears leggings, which means that he has to work hard and is tired!
"Ma, bring our horse over here." Nantian Kazuko shouted. Seeing that others were on their way, why didn't you provide something?
"Yes, yes, yes, UU reading www.uukanshu.net horses, we have a lot of horses, we exchanged them." Nan Tian Daokang reacted.
Sixteen horses were brought here, and the so-called many horses were just these, and there were two old horses that were obviously untrustworthy.
For the Nan Tian family, sixteen horses were enough to look down on other tribes in the entire "country".
Fourteen of them can be ridden, that is, cavalry, and the cavalry is very powerful.
"If the situation allows, we will directly deal with the Yoshimura family and the Yoshishou family, and carry arrows and supplies."
The Yu Lin flying cavalry was very happy to see the fourteen horses that could be ridden.
The saddles and stirrups were all equipped, and it was obvious that Lan Bao had taught them a lot.
In addition to the two horses that could be ridden in front, sixteen horses were for the Yu Lin flying cavalry... to fight against a team like the Japanese country...
"Next time, transport horses here, transport a hundred horses, and we will flatten the surrounding areas." Lan Bao said another joke.
Equipping the Yu Lin flying cavalry with horses is definitely a nightmare for the enemy.
"Want to fight?" Nan Tian Daokang took it seriously.
"The Tang Dynasty is also short of horses, so they won't bring them. But here, we will exchange horses if we have the chance and keep them."
Lan Bao waved his hand. The people of the Tang Dynasty couldn't even afford livestock, so how could they send a hundred war horses here?
"It's not easy to exchange. It takes a lot of iron to exchange for a horse. When it's exchanged, it's thin, and the tribe gives it good food to feed it."
Minamida Inoyasu regretted that the 16 horses in his family were treasures.
"Exchange with food, exchange with fish, as long as we can exchange, a thousand kilograms of dried fish for a horse that can be ridden, it's worth it!"
Minamida Kazuko had an idea. The fish could be caught while the Tang Dynasty ships were out to sea. The horses were in the sea... they were seahorses, and they couldn't be ridden.
