Chapter 218: Hidden Crisis
Ang Lee is generally a good person, at least Ang Lee himself thinks so, of course, what Ang Lee thinks is a good person is not like Lei Feng in later generations, who goes around doing good things and winning everyone's respect, but does not do bad things that make his conscience uneasy, which is already a good person in Ang Lee's opinion.

Things that harm others and are not beneficial to oneself must not be done, things that harm others and benefit oneself are better not to do, things that harm oneself and benefit others, Ang Lee doesn't seem to have such a high sentiment, and things that benefit others and oneself are what Ang Lee likes to do the most.
spent the whole afternoon with the brute girl, but didn't do anything too out of the ordinary, Ang Lee took out a handful of gold from his arms, quietly put it in the fish basket, and then turned to leave.
At the moment of leaving, Ang Lee had already decided that he could no longer have the mentality of having fun and contact with the barbarian girl, what if the barbarian girl was serious, no matter how bad Li An was, he couldn't hurt others!
Yes, I must not play anymore, I am so handsome, so good, the barbarian lady will definitely be tempted, the long pain is better than the short pain, this gold and a dozen fish, it can be regarded as my compensation for the brute girl's appointment.
Li An took a resolute step, strode towards the direction of Nanning Prefecture, the war horse and a few guards were waiting on the side of the road a few miles away, seeing that Li An had not come back, several guards were so frightened that their faces were green, and after seeing Li An, Fang was greatly relieved.
There is a curfew in Nanning Prefecture, but this is nothing for Li An, because Li An is now the highest official in Nanning Prefecture, and the new commander of the Pingnan Army, Nan Jiyun, was trained by him, and all the soldiers of the Pingnan Army know him, of course, no one will stop him from entering the city.
Li An and his guards galloped on horseback, and finally arrived in Nanning Prefecture before midnight, and asked the defenders to open the city gate and let them enter.
Early the next morning, Ang Lee did not go to Xiaoxi, because he had already decided that he would no longer have a playful mentality to 'scourge' the barbarian girl.
Besides, there are still more than two months left, and he is about to leave the planing area, and there are some things that he still has to explain to Nan Jiyun, so as not to make a mistake in this general who has not been in the army for a long time.
"General, General Nan is here."
Li An was stunned for a moment, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Nan Jiyun striding over.
"Nan Jiyun, how does it feel to be the commander of the Pingnan Army?"
Li An asked happily.
Nan Jiyun smiled: "It's not good, I thought it would be very majestic, but there are too many worries, I'm busy, I'm anxious, these two days, there is a woman pestering me all day long, annoyed to death." ”
Li An was stunned: "There is actually a woman pestering you, you are lucky, what kind of woman is it, and how is your posture?" ”
Nan Jiyun said with a disgusted face: "The posture of the bullshit is the mother of the guard, Aji, this old woman, I don't know which tendon is wrong, she always runs to me, and ...... Ay...... Bad luck"
Obviously, Ah Yi, a half-old, has used a beauty trick on Nan Jiyun.
Hearing this, Li An laughed unconsciously, but soon stopped.
He suddenly found that Ah Ji, a half-old woman, is not simple, a few days ago, Ah Ji has been pestering herself, but in recent days she has been pestering Nan Jiyun, and the time node in the middle is the day when Nan Jiyun was canonized as the governor of the Pingnan Army.
In other words, from that day on, Ah Ji should have known that Ang Lee would soon leave the planing land, and Nan Jiyun was the supreme power symbol of the future of the planing land.
'What the hell is this Ah Ji trying to do?' Her son, Jiao Shouyu, has been canonized by the imperial court, only receiving a salary but not having to work, and if there are no special circumstances, it will be impossible to change. ’
Li An was slandered in his heart, and looked at Nan Jiyun with a frown: "This Ah Ji is very scheming, and he was still pestering the general a few days ago?" You must be careful of this woman, don't be taken advantage of by her, and in addition, pay close attention to the movements of the Shouyu family, if the Shouyu has a backlash, you must not stay. ”
Nan Jiyun nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, don't worry, general." ”
Li An nodded, and said: "The Pingnan Army has 5,000 men, Queensland and Nanning Prefecture each have 2,000 garrisons, and Hulugu deploys 1,000, but Nanning Prefecture is the most important, it is a bridge connecting Jiaozhou and Yizhou, which is also the reason why the imperial court wanted to build a city in Nanning Prefecture in the first place, so you will personally garrison Nanning Prefecture here in the future." ”
"The last will understand."
Li An thought for a moment and continued: "My Tang Dynasty controls the land, and I can't rely only on the army, but also on the people's livelihood and culture, which shouldn't be your responsibility, and the officials sent by the imperial court are responsible, but if you can cooperate with the officials appointed by the imperial court, it will be better." ”
"General, I don't understand these things, I'm afraid I won't be able to help much."
Li An said: "These are very simple, even simpler than training soldiers to fight, you only need to be responsible for the overall situation, and you don't need to do it yourself." ”
The people's livelihood and culture that Li Ang said is to improve the people's livelihood and export the long-standing culture of Datang, so that the people of Datang can live a more prosperous life, and let them identify with the excellent culture of Datang and be proud of integrating into Datang's culture.
To be specific, it is necessary to make the land completely become a part of Datang, so that people can't tell what is different from the hinterland of Datang at all.
It is very important to improve people's livelihood, after all, the land is still a very poor and backward area, and only when the arrival of the Tang Dynasty changes their lives and makes them live more comfortable and prosperous, they can better support the rule of the Tang Dynasty.
People's hearts are selfish, especially ordinary people, they are more concerned about their own lives, no matter who rules, as long as their lives become better, they will support the rulers, especially those who have not read books, and they don't even know what the country is, where does the patriotic feelings come from.
Improving people's livelihood is a very complex project, including all aspects, such as improving transportation, making the circulation of goods easier, promoting the prosperity of commerce, building water conservancy, increasing the ability of fields to resist risks, ensuring that the harvest of fields will not cause famine, opening schools, so that people can read and write, so that they do not know nothing, and of course, the development of characteristic economy, the use of the unique climatic characteristics of the land, the development of large-scale planting and breeding industry, as well as mining, and so on.
In short, in Ang Lee's view, at this time, the land is still a semi-wild land with little development, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped, and the room for progress is still very huge.
In addition to improving people's livelihood, there is a more important work, that is, to export the long-standing culture of the Tang Dynasty, so that the people of the land yearn for the culture of the Tang Dynasty, and are proud of being Tang people, and the premise of exporting culture is, of course, inseparable from infrastructure, the school must be built, and the school can not only teach people to write, but also allow them to learn the vast Tang culture and increase their sense of identity.
Of course, all of this must be promoted by a large number of Datang officials, and once the land becomes developed, this can be regarded as the political achievements of these officials, Li An means that Nan Jiyun must cooperate with and assist local officials to develop people's livelihood, and cannot obstruct infrastructure construction.
Regarding the expansion of transportation and the construction of water conservancy, Li Ang has already sent people to the capital, and the construction of a school and the transfer of teachers from the mainland, Li An is still in preparation, after all, there are many details that must be considered clearly, such as how to let the literate talents go to the land willingly, and how to let the wild children in the land learn cultural knowledge.
After a year of turmoil, the land is in ruins, there are too many places that need to be invested, paving roads, repairing bridges and building water conservancy all need money, and fighting bandits and crime also requires a lot of resources, that is to say, how to restore stability as soon as possible depends mainly on the investment of the imperial court in the land planing.
And now that the Tang Dynasty has been fighting continuously and has experienced a very large-scale natural disaster, the treasury does not have too many materials, and it can't spare too many resources to invest in land planning, so Li An feels that he has to find another way.
Luzhou's gold mine production is very considerable, if it can be linked to the development of land planning, it is a good way, so that the gold produced in Luzhou can be directly used for the development of land planning, which can be a good solution to this problem.
This idea must be approved by the Tang Emperor Li Longji, after all, the whole world is not the king's land, all the products in the Tang Dynasty belong to the emperor, and everything is the emperor's decision.
And if Li An agrees that the gold mine is linked to the development of the land, he must list the importance of the land one by one, so that Li Longji realizes that the land is the reliable rear of Datang, and it is a bridge connecting Jiaozhou and Yizhou, and now, Datang has strong enemies in the northeast, north, northwest and west, and the east and south are the strategic rear. It is to invest more resources in the land to stabilize it as soon as possible, and after three or five years, it can provide a stable source of taxes for the Tang Dynasty, so as to support the Tang Empire to strike at the strong enemies in the west and north.
How to phrase it is a university question, and there are many issues that the king of a country needs to consider, and the views that Ang Lee wants to express should be just to the point, so that Li Longji can realize the importance of land planning, so as to fully support the development of land planning.
How to develop the plot step by step, after Li An wrote it, he sent someone to the capital, and in the next few days, Li An urged the nearby recruited migrant workers to repair and strengthen the city of Nanning.
After several bloody battles, the city wall of Nanning Prefecture has been very damaged, since the Pingnan army wants to use this place as its headquarters, it is necessary to strengthen the city wall to ensure absolute safety.
The people are working hard to build the city wall, and the common people are living a stable and happy life, but there are also some unwilling wealthy families who are plotting to make trouble and force the Tang army to leave the planing land.
This undercurrent is brewing in the dark, and the members are mainly from the various wealthy armies of the past, these people have rich combat experience, and they have a very stubborn national prejudice, believing that as a barbarian, they should not be led by the Tang people, which means being enslaved.
These unwilling wealthy families and their followers are quietly preparing, ready to deal a fatal blow to Datang at a suitable time.
And although their conspiracy is extremely hidden, in any organized group, there will always be traitors and other characters, and some people, for the sake of future glory and wealth, risk retribution, run to Nan Jiyun to Gaomi, and tell the truth about their plans.
When Nan Jiyun heard the news, he did not make a noise, but immediately went to discuss with Li An, after all, Nan Jiyun admired Li An very much, and felt that Li An's insight far exceeded his knowledge.
"General, the wealthy clan is not willing to fail, they are trying to make trouble."
Nan Jiyun saw Li An and said straightforwardly.
Li An was surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on, take your time." ”
Nan Jiyun was not in a hurry, and repeated what the whistleblower said, and asked Ang Lee's opinion.
When Li An heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, he also had a premonition, after all, after the land was taken down, it was too stable, and now, this hidden undercurrent has finally leaked out.
"Their target has not yet been determined, and they are not sure where they are, which is more difficult, our army is only 5,000, and the scattered defense will inevitably be difficult to deal with, and we must be prepared to know the target of these wealthy families."
Ang Lee said seriously.
"Don't worry, general, I have asked the man to go back, as long as there is a new situation, he will come to report."
Nan Jiyun is not stupid, he has thought of this a long time ago.
"In two days, the officials from the capital will arrive in the plan, these people are all civil officials, and they are the pillars of my Datang, if the wealthy family of the planing land attack them, the success rate is still very large, and it will cause a lot of losses to my Datang."
Li An's first thought was that the civil officials that the Tang Dynasty was about to send, these civil officials would be responsible for ruling and building the land, and they were all scholars, and in ancient times, when education was not popular, these people were all the elites of the Tang Dynasty and the pillars of the Tang Dynasty.
"General, then the general will send five hundred men and horses to meet these officials, so that they will not encounter any accidents."
Nan Jiyun said.
Li An shook his head lightly: "No, even if the target of these people is really my Datang officials, we can't act rashly now, once we send troops to protect, they will definitely stop moving, in this way, it will be difficult for us to catch them all, so it is safer to put a long line to catch big fish, first figure out the accurate target of these people's attacks, we can prepare in advance." ”
"The general is reasonable, then we will wait and see what happens, wait for the next news, and then make plans."
Nan Jiyun said softly.
Li An nodded, and told Nan Jiyun to send more scouts to investigate all over the land, after all, this kind of thing can't pin all hopes on a traitor, that would be too passive. (To be continued.) )
