Chapter 1175 Reclaiming Huainan
The voice was so low that Pei Yi didn't know whether Li Xinchen was saying it to him or to himself, but he didn't plan to say more, and some of the words were up to the point.
As if realizing that there was still a person sitting opposite waiting for him, Li Xinchen smiled to himself, stood up and said, "I probably know what to do, and I have a servant." ”
"The duty of a minister." Pei Yi hurriedly stood up and said.
And Li Xinchen thought of something: "I remember that it seems that Xu Deyan, the governor of Hanzhong, reported that the Liang clan of Tianshui in the northwest was not rescued in the battle of the northwest, and after I reviewed it, the servant should have also seen this recital, right?" ”
Pei Yi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly nodded: "The old minister is stupid, but he still has an impression." ”
"Tianshui Liang Clan," Li Xinchen sneered, "It's not good to repeat and repeat, and my northwest doesn't need to be handed over to such a person." However, for the sake of their contribution to pacifying the northwest at the beginning, let them have a good year first. ”
The words fell, and Li Xinchen strode away.
Pei Yi suddenly shuddered, the Tianshui Liang clan seemed to be more than auspicious, and His Majesty directly told him about it, which was equivalent to expressing his determination to rectify the family.
Killing chickens and monkeys is also a common method used by emperors.
Thinking of this, Pei Yi looked at Li Xinchen's back with some concern, hoping that His Majesty could grasp the proportion, now is the time when the entire Han Dynasty needs to work together, if His Majesty makes too heavy a move, I'm afraid it will not be a good thing.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this matter was not so simple, Pei Yi hurriedly said: "Come on, ask where Tushi is?" ”
After Li Xinchen returned, Pei Zilie went north to Lianghuai to inspect the Huainan front, and he should be back soon.
The confessor of the Pei family strode in and said helplessly: "I just received the news that the eldest prince has returned to Jingkou, but just now His Majesty ordered the eldest prince to enter the palace immediately. ”
Pei Yi was stunned for a moment and sighed.
The Pei family is not a big family after all, it can only be regarded as a humble family that has just emerged, even if His Majesty really plans to do something to the family, it will not be their turn to be the first bird to be beaten, but it is more likely to be a gun.
No matter how you find it, this big whirlpool and big wave have wrapped everyone in it, people's minds have changed, and the times have to change, how can a small Pei family be alone?
————————————-
"Your Majesty, Huainan has a strong barrier, and the soldiers have high morale, even if it is difficult to break through Huaishui with fewer victories and more, it is not a problem to hold the Huainan defense line," Pei Zilie said in a deep voice, "But the biggest problem in Huainan at the moment should not be war preparedness, but the rectification of grain production." ”
As soon as he came ashore from Jingkou, he hurried to meet Li Xinchen, and in the imperial study, there was also Chen Yu who Pei Zilie hadn't seen for a long time.
Chen Yu was responsible for organizing the white robe to gradually extend the news network of the Han Dynasty to various state capitals in the north, and he was the weaver of the net. Because the white robe is only responsible for Li Xinchen, he rarely sees Chen Yu in the court or the Taiwei Mansion on weekdays, he is like the world has evaporated.
At this time, Pei Zilie was also a little surprised, but thinking about it, he was originally going to report something related to the military, and it was reasonable for Chen Yu to be there.
For Huainan, Li Xinchen actually doesn't know much, the only time he went to Huainan was when he came back from Huaibei, in his impression, the two Huai along the line can really be called a strong wall, a barrier Xiao Xiao, and now Pei Zilie decided to focus on the two Huai, which has been ravaged thousands of times by the tug-of-war of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, what is the reason?
"The land of Lianghuai is fertile, the terrain is flat, and the river network is dense, if you talk about its wealth, in fact, it is only under the south of the Yangtze River, but many years of war have caused it to be depressed and dilapidated. Since it is difficult for the two sides to have a major conflict along the Lianghuai line so that it will affect the ownership of the Lianghuai, then we might as well base ourselves on Huainan and start farming, and turn it into fertile soil for grain production like Jiangnan. Pei Zilie said thoughtfully.
He also made such a suggestion because since the Battle of Jiangling in Southern Chen, in fact, the focus of the Southern Dynasty's attack has shifted from Huainan to Jinghu Lake and along the Bashu line in the west, especially now that Li Xinchen can completely bypass Huaibei to attack the hinterland of the Northern Dynasty.
Huainan's importance is declining, so there is no need to leave such a large area of land in a semi-desolate state. After all, when Nan Chen had just taken Huainan, because Huainan had almost become a scorched earth, and this was the only springboard that he could rely on to attack the north, he simply managed Huainan militarized and semi-militarized, and even Chen Ji handed over all the military and civilian affairs of Huainan to Wu Mingche alone.
It can also be seen that in Nanchen's administrative system, Huainan's civil affairs are actually dispensable, and even need blood transfusion support from the imperial court. The rule of the Han in Jiangnan and Huainan continued the old system of Nanchen to a large extent, so now Huainan is still a bloodsucking worm lying on the stomach of the Han.
It is indeed a matter of concern for Huainan, especially in the Huainan region, which is south of the Huaishui line, to restore its original production capacity.
"But it's true that you want to cultivate Huainan, but where do people come from? Have you ever asked Zaifu and the Ministry of Household for their opinions on this matter? Li Xinchen frowned and said, Huainan has been in chaos for so long, and the people who can run have already run away, so who can let them farm?
At the same time, Li Xinchen's words were somewhat dissatisfied with Pei Zilie, I asked you to go to Huainan to inspect the military, but after you came back, you talked about farming in Huainan, so what do you want those civil officials in the court to do?
"Half army and half tun, encircle and reclaim Huainan." Pei Zilie said decisively.
Li Xinchen was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Chen Yu next to him.
In ancient times, there was a system of directly reclaiming nearby land when the army was stationed, but it was generally in the rear of the border pass, which solved the food problem of the army to a certain extent.
However, this also means that the training time of the army and the ability to assemble in the event of a sudden outbreak of war will be sacrificed to a large extent.
However, can the current situation in Huainan ensure such reclamation?
Chen Yu, who had been silent, said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I think it is feasible. After the beginning of spring in the coming year, there will be a battle between Yu Wenxian and Yang Jian, and Wang Liang, who will be stationed in Huaibei at that time, as the main force of Yu Wenxian's flank, will definitely go from Huaibei to support Luoyang. What's more, there are two natural dangers, and there are sailors to protect them, so the reclamation is feasible. ”
Li Xinchen bowed slightly, after the water rises in the spring, it will be the world of the Han Water Division, so there is really no need to continue to let so many Lu Divisions stare dryly in the camp.
"That's the case, but whether it can be done or not, and how it should be cultivated, still needs to be discussed and decided by the Taiwei Mansion and Zhongshu Province." Li Xinchen said thoughtfully.
A full treasury is never a wrong thing.
