Chapter 55: Fur
On the southern outskirts of Dianchong City, on a mound called "Wen Gonglei", Xiyang Wang Yuwen Wen is walking birds, and in the golden bird cage is a white parrot, this parrot is produced by Linyi, and the snow-white appearance is unique, which is very different from the Central Plains parrot.

The parrot of Lin Yi is a "specialty", and most of the parrots in Lin Yi have been present to the Central Plains Imperial Court, and the parrot in the hands of Yu Wenwen is very smart and has learned the phrase "the world is peaceful".
Dian Chong, as the capital of Linyi country, naturally has a lot of good things, and Yuwen Wen will not forget to leave the big head to the superior, so as not to let someone take the opportunity to make trouble in the future, and since he wants to welcome the above, he must have auspiciousness.
The unification of the Central Plains of the Zhou State is imminent, and the Linyi white parrot who will say "the world is peaceful" is a just right auspicious rui, Yuwenwen plans to send this bird to Yecheng to offer the emperor, as for how long this auspicious rui can live in the north, it is none of his business.
Pinch your fingers, the Zhou army should have taken Jiankang, the Chen State was destroyed and the Central Plains was unified, and the confrontation between the north and the south for hundreds of years will end this year, and can the troubled times end here? Yu Wenwen didn't dare to be optimistic.
The Central Plains is unified, and the prestige of the peak of the Prime Minister Wei Chi is probably not far from receiving Jiuxi, and since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Shoujiuxi is the prelude to the change of dynasty, so there is not much time left for Yuwenwen.
He handed the birdcage to the birdkeeper, took off his cloak, and looked at the city to the north, and the scenery around the place.
Wen Gongli, the Central Plains cultural atmosphere of this place name is strong, of course, there is a history, about two hundred years ago, the Jin State (Eastern Jin Dynasty) of Jiaozhou Thorn Shi Wen Fangzhi, led the army to crusade against the Linyi State, until the outside of the city of Dianchong.
At that time, Dianchong City did not have the scale of later, the Linyi army held the city to the death, and the Jin army also reached the end of the strong crossbow, the king of Linyi sent people to sue for peace, the commander Wen Fangzhi got off the donkey, and accepted the surrender letter submitted by the Linyi envoy in the Jin army camp in the southern suburbs of the city, and then withdrew.
Of course, this is an expedient measure for both sides, and the mound where the Jin army camped was called "Wen Gongli", more than two hundred years later, another "Wen" stood here, only lamenting that time had flown by, and the Central Plains court still could not pacify the Linyi country.
More than 200 years ago, the Jin army under the city withdrew, the Song army that broke through Dianchong more than 100 years ago also withdrew, and now the Zhou army that broke through Dianchong also had to retreat, allowing the Linyi army to "recover" the national capital and still occupy the land of Rinan.
Is it because the soldiers are not brave enough to fight? No.
Is the coach afraid of the enemy? Neither is it.
It was because the price to be paid to maintain the rule of the old land of Nisan was too high to bear over time, in other words, the cost of ruling was too high for the Central Plains Imperial Court to afford.
In fact, the key to the problem of Lin Yi State is politics rather than military, and whether it can maintain the official jurisdiction of the Central Plains Imperial Court on this land depends on whether Jiaozhou in the north can provide sufficient support.
This requires a stable situation in Jiaozhou and abundant manpower and material resources, which in turn leads to another problem: whether Guangzhou is stable or not. So it comes to how much the Central Plains Imperial Court has developed the area around Guangzhou.
In the original history, even in the Song Dynasty, Lingnan was a place that made people smell and change, and the name of the land of smoke and miasma was not nonsense, and it was precisely because of this that Lingnan was the first choice for exile.
Lingnan at the time of the Two Song Dynasty was still a place of miasma, and it is conceivable what kind of "negative equity" Lingnan at this time was for the Central Plains Imperial Court, not to mention the more distant and hot Jiaozhou.
In order to maintain the rule of Lingbiao, especially Jiaoguang, the Central Plains court paid far more than the gain, when the dynasty was on the uphill road, there were manpower and financial resources to maintain, and when the dynasty was on the downhill road, where was the mind and ability to maintain the rule of Jiaoguang?
Panyu, Guangzhou, is far away from Chang'an, Luoyang and other places, the traditional political center of the Central Plains, and the land journey takes nearly two months, while Jiaozhou Prefecture Zhilong is nearly 2,000 miles away from Panyu, not to mention Dian Chong, which is also close to 2,000 miles away from Longbian.
From the point of view of the traditional dynasty, it was too expensive to maintain the rule over the land of the former Ninan-gun.
If the battle is won, it will have to consume a lot of manpower and material resources, if it is defeated, it will be even worse, and the situation in Jiaozhou will be unstable, and then it will have to transfer troops from Guangzhou to quell the chaos.
Or is that problem, if the Guangzhou soldiers win the war, they will have to consume a lot of manpower and material resources, and if they lose, the situation near Guangzhou will be unstable, what should we do now?
Transferring troops from the Central Plains would cost even more and would even lead to a mutiny, so over time, Ninan County would be lost, and even if troops were sent to recover it, it would still fall into a dead loop.
Not to mention that once the situation in the Central Plains is unstable, even the ridge is dangerous.
Regarding the relationship between the hometown of Ninan and Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, Yu Wenwen thinks that it is more appropriate to describe it as "the skin does not exist, and the hair will be attached", and Rinan County is the "extreme southern boundary" of the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty, which is a pinch of bright and beautiful fluff, and Jiaozhou is the epidermis under the fluff.
The fluff needs to be attached to the epidermis to be firm, and the villi and epidermis also need the "dermis" of Guangzhou to provide nutrients, if the dermis is dead, the epidermis that loses nutrients gradually shrinks, and the fluff on it will naturally sparse or even fall clean.
Ninan County was successfully encroached upon by the Linyi State, and the background of its era was the chaos in the Central Plains, the confrontation between the north and the south, and the Southern Dynasty faced a huge military threat from the Northern Dynasty, and almost all resources were invested in the northern defense line.
Therefore, in order to fundamentally solve the problem of Linyi and restore the old land of Rinan, the Central Plains must first be stabilized, and then the Lingbiao Guangzhou area should be well managed, and then Jiaozhou should be managed well on the basis of it.
Guangzhou has what was later called the Pearl River Delta, and Jiaozhou has what later generations called the Red River Delta, as long as these two places are well managed, they will be big granaries with large areas of farmland, and as long as there is suitable arable land, more and more Han people will settle down.
The more Han people in a region, the stronger the cohesion of their hearts towards the Central Plains, as long as they are properly guided and allowed to organize armed villages to protect themselves, they can effectively defend once there is an invasion of foreign enemies, and cooperate with the official army to repel the enemy who enters the Kou.
In this way, it can effectively deal with the encroachment of foreign races, and there is no need for the imperial court to transfer troops from other places to work on an expedition, which is the best way to recover and hold on to Ninan County, but it will take time, as long as decades or even hundreds of years.
Therefore, Yu Wenwen didn't want to strike while the iron was hot to destroy Lin Yi, this kind of move was meaningless, it would only increase the casualties of the soldiers, and could not substantially change the status quo of the old land in Ninan.
When the storm comes, the first thing he has to do is to become the winner, otherwise no matter how ambitious he is, if he can't get a foothold in the Central Plains, other ambitions are all in the mirror.
After the pawn is over, Lin Yiguo's vitality is greatly damaged, and he will not be able to commit north for several years or even more than ten years, because his strength cannot support his ambitions, and Jiaozhou can get a long buffer period because of this, which is enough.
When the dust settles in the Central Plains, if he still has the ability or ability, he will find a way to solve this problem.
Yu Wenwen was full of thoughts, and he was a little distracted for a while, and his entourage looked at the sky and reminded softly: "King, the time has come." ”
"Huh?"
Looking at Dian Chongcheng, Yuwen Wen took a long breath: "Since this is the case, then send a signal." ”
Mounted on his horse, he made his way east along the dirt road, a loud trumpet sounded behind him, and a moment later more flames erupted in the city, gradually joining together, turning the city into a great torch.
The army always has to celebrate, and the burning Dianchong will be the most gorgeous scenery in the celebration.
