Chapter 623 Shocking facts (second update)

It was actually late at night when Mao Sui entered the palace, but when Zhao Dan, who was asleep, learned that Mao Sui came to monitor the thief in the guard, he got up immediately and summoned Mao Sui.

Mao Sui's eyes were bloodshot, but his whole body was extremely excited, and he presented the material in front of Zhao Dan respectfully: "Please look, my lord, this is the confession I got after interrogating Miao Mo and Guo Kai. .”

Zhao Dan took the material, and immediately noticed a small red dot on the white paper. After a short pause, Zhao Dan didn't say anything, but looked at the confession.

Looking at it, the expression on Zhao Dan's face gradually became serious.

Things were much worse than Zhao Dan imagined.

In the past few years, due to the government's squeeze on the ironware production of Guo's family, a large number of ironware produced in Guo's ironware workshop have been unsalable.

Under such circumstances, Guo Kai did not reduce production, but quietly transported the unsalable ironware to the border of Zhao and Qin to trade with the people of Qin.

The specific transportation route is to transport things from Handan to Jinyang first, then from Jinyang to Lishi, Lincheng, and finally cross the Yellow River to smuggle to Shangjun.

It is worth mentioning that among these ironware are not only agricultural tools, but also a large number of iron weapons.

Although there is definitely a gap between the iron weapons of Guo's workshop and the refined iron weapons improved by Zhao's official smelter, Guo Kai will never escape the charge of smuggling weapons.

According to Guo Kai's confession, the Guo family has smuggled at least 4 weapons and armor to Qin over the years. Especially in the past two years, Qin's demand for these weapons and equipment has reached a peak.

Zhao Dan knew why, Qin State had lost Yiyang and Nanyang two major iron ore producing areas and smelting bases in the past few years, so now the production capacity of ironware in Qin State has shrunk to the point of death.

Although it is said that the Qin army mainly relied on bronze weapons to conquer the world, this does not mean that the people of Qin have no need for iron weapons.

Although the amount of Guo Kai's smuggling was huge, it was not too unexpected by Zhao Dan. I have enough understanding of the smuggling business.

What really chilled Zhao Dan was that it took thousands of miles from Handan to Jinyang, passing through several counties in Zhao State along the way.

But under such circumstances, Guo Kai's smuggling business was quietly hidden from Zhao Dan, the King of Zhao, for several years. The monitoring guards of Zhao's internal situation were not aware of it.

What does this mean?This means that not only the officials of Zhao State along the way may be the beneficiaries and participants of this smuggling route, but also means that the monitoring guards have been completely infiltrated, and they have not played their supposed monitoring functions in this matter at all. !

Zhao Dan put down Guo Kai's statement with a gloomy expression, and picked up another statement from Miao Mo.

Miao Mo is one of the many adopted sons of Miao Xian, the founder of the Supervisory Guard. He is also an insider of the Supervisory Guard. He is also in charge of the supervision of the Datong Iron Ore Smelter in Zhao Guo. more cases.

What Zhao Dan thought was not wrong at all.

In Miao Mo's confession, it not only clearly explained how many officials of the monitoring guard helped Guo Kai to conceal this matter, but also how Miao Mo quietly stole the secret recipe from the smelter in the past few years and then Sell ​​it to Guo Kai at a high price, so that the smelting technology of Guo's iron workshop will continue to improve.

However, just the money sent by Guo Kai is actually not enough for Miao Mo to spend the two months of returning to Handan every year, so Miao Mo came up with another trick, which is to make deals with the Huns.

As the citizens of the prairie, the Huns, who have no smelting skills at all, are very eager for Zhao's ironware, so they don't hesitate to send a large amount of precious medicinal materials to Miao Mo, and Miao Mo then sells these precious medicinal materials in Handan, ruthlessly Ruthlessly made a fortune.

Miaomo's trading partners are very extensive, covering all major tribes of the Xiongnu, and even the current Hun Du Longqi Shanyu is also a trading partner of Miaomo.

What surprised Zhao Dan was that in the past few years, Miao Mo had quietly sold more than 2 pieces of iron weapons and armor to the Huns, enough to equip a [-]-man army.

"It turns out that this is how the Huns were able to defeat Donghu." Zhao Dan understood it all at once.

Logically speaking, the Huns should not rise until decades later, but with the large number of weapons and armor sold by Miaomo, the Huns' equipment level has made a great leap forward, so they were able to defeat Donghu so early in advance. and Yueshi are two powerful enemies.

Seeing the material here, Zhao Dan has already classified Guo Kai and Miao Mo as the dead in his heart.

It can be said that it is very rare to cooperate with the enemy and betray the country to this extent.

Zhao Dan suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to read.

In the following content, it is mainly the list of monitoring guard officials and local officials who have had an affair with Guo Kai and the Huns as explained by Guo Kai and Miao Mo.

The list is densely written in a long list, and at a rough look, there are at least hundreds of them.

What made Zhao Dan even more angry was that there were at least hundreds of people among the monitoring guards for the list involved in Miao Mo's confession alone.

This monitoring guard has been infiltrated into a sieve!

It's not just the monitoring guards, but also a large number of local officials belonging to the Sikou who were bought off.

Obviously, Guo Kai used the guise of Si Kou Zhao Bao to open a lot of convenience in the local area. It can even be said that many people turned a blind eye to Guo Kai's actions just because of Zhao Bao's face. one-eyed.

"Bastard!" Zhao Dan finally couldn't bear it any longer, and slammed his fist hard on the table in front of him.
