Chapter 443
Li Ke has always left a large number of Shu troops near Chengdu Mansion.
These Shu troops are not only responsible for protecting Chengdu Mansion.
It is also the eyes of Chengdu Mansion.
They saw all the disturbances in the vicinity of Chengdu Mansion.
Any outsider coming will pass under their noses.
If some bandits arrive.
Then they can do it without anyone's consent.
Kill these rogues directly.
As for the outside businessmen, they secretly investigated and determined that there were no problems before they stopped taking care of it.
But if someone who is obviously an official arrives near Chengdu.
Li Ke will get the news as soon as possible.
When Fang Xuanling came here before.
He was the first one to get the news.
And this situation is happening again now.
Di Renjie thought his whereabouts were secret.
In fact, after entering Shu Kingdom.
His whereabouts have been controlled by Li Ke.
In the Kingdom of Shu.
Li Ke does not allow anything to happen outside his control.
Although the spies did not reveal Di Renjie's identity.
But Li Ke had already guessed it.
There is no shortage of officials in Shu now.
At present, the most lacking officials are the Pyu Kingdom and the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Fang Xuanling went to Zhangxiong Kingdom.
I temporarily changed my mind and planned to live in the Zhang Zhung Kingdom for a period of time.
The purpose is to manage the situation in the Zhang Zhung Kingdom.
The current Zhang Zhung Kingdom, although the country still exists.
The king is also still on the throne.
But in fact, it is no different from Datang's territory.
The Nanzhao Kingdom was temporarily put on hold.
If it weren't for Li Ke's occupation of Nanzhao and his declaration of sovereignty.
I am afraid that Nanzhao Kingdom has also been caught in the flames of war.
In fact even so.
The Nanzhao Kingdom was still inevitably baptized by the flames of war.
In the south of him, several small countries have already set their sights on the vast land of Nanzhao Kingdom.
Although, they are all small countries.
But that's why.
They will take action immediately.
Then grab something and run away.
It's exactly the same as what Piao country did back then.
Because the size of these countries is too small.
So there are only three or four cities in a country.
Naturally, there will not be many troops.
About tens of thousands of troops.
Such a small country.
Not to mention comparing it with the former Nanzhao Kingdom.
Even Pyu, which was easily wiped out by Shu, couldn't compare.
Li Ke just has no interest in taking action against these small countries.
Otherwise one day.
He can wipe out all those small countries.
These small countries are also very united.
Know that you are weak.
So they simply join forces.
There is no plan to occupy any territory.
Just hit the autumn wind.
Run away after hitting the autumn wind.
They did not engage in any battle with Tang's assistant army.
Relying on the small number of troops in one's own country.
Ran to the territory of Nanzhao Kingdom, robbed some food and gold and silver treasures and ran away.
It can be said that the wretched tactics have been brought to the extreme.
Because these acts of robbery did not pose any threat to the Shu army.
Coupled with their small number, there are not many things to rob.
Occasionally, if a robbery fails, a large number of corpses of companions will be left behind.
Not to mention the elite Shu Kingdom.
Even if it is to let the Pyu army go.
It can also successfully wipe out all these small countries.
After all, in terms of strength, these small countries are at the bottom of the list.
They are not greedy either.
Just some small bargains.
This gave Li Ke a headache.
Let's play it specially.
not worth it.
Just for such a small amount of food and resources.
Just launch a large army to occupy those small countries.
If it is shot down, it will definitely be shot down.
But the resources and manpower and material resources consumed add up.
All are countless times more than the resources that can be obtained.
But don't fight.
The small groups of soldiers in these countries are as annoying as flies.
After going back and forth, Datang didn't suffer much.
But the army will be tortured unspeakably.
Li Ke also felt a little troublesome.
In the short term, he does not want to continue to expand his territory.
Now that there is already a site, it is a bit out of control.
Continue to expand the territory.
There is no one to manage it.
And those sites that no one manages.
It is easy for someone to take the lead in rebellion and make troubles.
It's time for this kind of thing to spread.
Said that the territory under his name was in chaos.
This has a huge impact on his reputation.
Li Ke didn't care about these things.
But he didn't want his people to suffer.
and so.
After Li Ke thought about it, he only asked Su Dingfang to lead his troops to fight over there.
But not conquer.
Just a simple fight.
Tell the outside world that he is not easy to bully.
Don't let cats and dogs jump around on his head.
Now he just didn't have the time to pay attention to them.
Wait for him to find time and leisure.
He will let those people know what it is to provoke him.
Now that the new year is approaching, Li Ke doesn't want to cause more trouble.
Just take advantage of this opportunity to take care of the benefits you have recently received.
Don't say anything else.
It is necessary to deal with those acquired sites and resources.
these resources.
Basically they are all obtained from the royal palaces of several countries.
Although the strength of these countries is not strong, the lives of the people are also poor.
But there are still a lot of resources in their palace.
Be it food or money.
However, the money in these countries is different from that in Datang.
Generally speaking.
The annual tribute paid to the Tang Dynasty by other countries is all handed in in the form of items.
Or gold and silver.
By this time there were already valuables of gold and silver.
The currency systems of these countries are not common to them here.
But many resources are still common.
Li Ke's first thing after ruling these countries.
It is the unified currency system.
The popularity of currency must be unified.
Otherwise, future transactions between these countries and Datang will be a huge trouble.
And now rule these countries.
For the Shu Kingdom, it is also a trouble.
In the past, the economic source of Shu basically relied on those cheap silk and cloth.
There is also the export of surplus food.
The previous Piao Kingdom, Nanzhao Kingdom and Xiangxiong Kingdom were all key targets of Li Ke's exports.
After the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce.
Li Ke also began to gradually shift the focus of these businesses to the country.
It can also be regarded as reducing foreign dumping to a certain extent.
It's just the three countries that are currently occupied.
It still takes up most of the resource consumption.
Now I want to solve the consumption of these resources.
Or expand these businesses nationwide.
Or continue to expand outward.
The development of the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce is not enough.
Compensation and arrangements for ordinary people are also not acceptable.
Nothing has been arranged yet.
Dump all resources directly into the country.
It will lead to the collapse of the domestic economic system.
