Chapter 233 [Building Homes, Population of the People]

In the seventh year of the Tang Dynasty, the cold wind was howling, and the snow was flying all over the sky, Li Yun, the lord of the Bohai Sea of the Tang Dynasty, was angry and raised 50,000 troops to attack the new pill in Liaodong.

Four hammers out, the city gate cracked, the tide of the army entered, and the territory was expanded in a battle.

When the city gate collapsed, he saw that a slave girl was being humiliated, and roared angrily, filled with grief and indignation, and carried a drum urn and a golden hammer to kill, and the long street was stained with blood and flesh.

The soldiers of Goguryeo who committed adultery died without a whole body.

The lord of the country got the dying request of the old soldier of the Han family, and swore to thank the Han family for his military exploits, and needed two things, saving the Miao descendants, demolishing the Beijing Temple, and hearing the pain of the Miao descendants' sorrow, the cold wind and tearing their clothes, but they were angry, and they roared to the sky and said: Liaodong dog thief, insult me Han Miao is not a son of man.

It is mad and slaughters the city.

From time to time, there were 50,000 Goguryeo soldiers, all of whom died under the order of the lord of the country to slaughter the city.

When the news came out, the world was shocked, and the Tang Dynasty Chang'an held a three-day grand court meeting, and the Confucian ministers attacked the lord of the country and killed the murderer, which is not the way of the benevolent monarch, and asked the emperor to degrade the lord of the country for the people.

There are five disciples under the lord of the country, so there is a big trouble in the court, there is the new Lu Guogong Cheng Zhimo, the new Kui Guogong Liu Renshi, who committed murder and injured heavy ministers in court, violated the law of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor was furious, accepted the public position, and was demoted to the common people to Liaodong.

The Liu family of the Cheng family, the whole family migrated, how desolate was the day of departure?

Only the world does not know that the emperor once climbed to the top of the palace, looked at the northeast and sighed: I, send you to the reunion, Cheng Zhijie, the grace of saving life has been repaid.

Half a month later, Li Ke, the king of Lu, came to the table, saying that the people in Shandong were suffering and had no food to eat, but they begged to escape from the famine and prayed for the court's approval.

The emperor played on the music, but he was drunk that night, inexplicably sad, and spit out the truth to the queen: In order to help the parents and children, send away the nephew, how indifferent the royal family affection has been since ancient times, the white mountains and black waters are poor, but the nephew struggles to survive, I am very sad, and I have no shame to face the third brother.

The queen held the hand of the emperor, and persuaded him: The nephew is very sensible, likes to start from scratch, the emperor is sad, and the concubine is willing to go to the northeast to give family affection and gentle care, I am his aunt, which can make the nephew feel at ease.

The emperor hesitated and finally adopted.

Ten days later, 5,000 Xuanjia Iron rode out of Chang'an, escorted the queen Feng to inspect, first to Fanyang, and then to Youyan, then out of the customs, straight to the northeast.

The queen held a girl in her arms, only two years old at the time, pink carved jade, Zhong Ling was cute, because she was born weak, she was named Son.

The lord of the country was overjoyed when he saw it, hugged him in his arms every day, extremely pampered, like his own sister, he once joked and ridiculed, saying that the second eldest sister worked hard and made great achievements, and the queen was slightly ashamed, and the face of the lord of the country was full.

……

The sea is magnificent, a look at the water and the sky meet, in the ocean east of Liaodong, there is a group of large islands composed of a certain country.

This is called Dongying, nominally with the Central Plains.

When Li Yun was preparing to establish a state in the northeast, this island country was going to send Tang envoys to the Central Plains, and this time the Tang envoys were sent on a huge scale, with 25 huge wooden boats, carrying tens of thousands of people, crossing the sea and breaking the waves.

The Tang mission first landed from Silla, reported through Baekje, Liaodong, and finally entered Goguryeo, but the situation blocked the trip.

The lord of Goguryeo, Gao Yuan, was recruiting troops on a large scale, and the Goguryeo people enthusiastically joined the army to retaliate when the Bohai State was established.

At the same time, several large ships also appeared in the north of the northeast, and Wang Tong and the bearded man finally crossed the Bering Strait, which connects the two continents, with tens of thousands of Native Americans.

Major events in the world come by chance, and the entire white mountains and black waters, plus the three kingdoms of Liaodong, will soon be surging again, and maybe everything will come together.

……

"One-two-three, smash, one-two-three, smash!"

In the ice and snow, a heavy horn suddenly sounded, obviously the cold wind was biting, but many people were sweating on their foreheads, and there were even strong men with bare upper bodies, and the spine was constantly bubbling with steam.

This is a huge construction site, and it is densely packed with people, including Han and Tata, and in addition to the Han and Tatar, there are also groups of Goguryeo people wearing prison clothes on the construction site.

One by one, the original ancient trees were cut down and transported here in a steady stream from the mountains, and not far away a small hill was billowing smoke, and many ox carts were shuttling back and forth, pulling carts of red bricks.

"Ahhh......h

In the huge construction site, a group of little children are running happily, these children are not frolicking, they are also helping adults to work, the older ones can pick up two or three red bricks and run, the younger ones can only hold a piece and transport it slowly, but regardless of the age or the age, the children are particularly excited to work.

The sky was snowing again, the goose-feather snow, the construction site suddenly sounded a crisp knocking sound, only to hear a few rough men shouting loudly: "One team, two teams, three teams and four teams, you four teams stop the work in hand first, clean up and prepare for dinner, each bring a good rice bowl, and eat broth at noon as usual." ”

The sound spread through the busy construction site and soon reached the side of a city wall under construction, and a group of children cheered and adults reached out to wipe the sweat from their foreheads.

Four brigades soon gathered, each with more than a thousand people.

Dozens of cauldrons were set up in the dining place, the bottom of the pot was blazing, the cauldron was steaming, a rich aroma of meat filled the air, and many children were hungry.

Although they were very hungry, they did not compete, but some of them lined up in long lines, holding all kinds of large bowls and waiting for dinner.

But see dozens of cooks carrying a big horse spoon, when they are all very powerful, every time they see people coming, the big horse spoon scoops against the cauldron, clang, a bowl of broth, if you find that it is a child who is cooking, you will scoop out a piece of meat at the bottom of the pot, and send it into the child's bowl with quick eyes, followed by a fierce glare, and scolded with a smile: "Wipe the saliva, and come again after eating enough." ”

Sometimes, he would rub the child's head vigorously with his rough hands, laugh out loud, and ask, "How many bricks did you move today?" Aren't you worthy of the lord of the country to give you meat? ”

The little ones chirped, grimaced with the big bowls, and ran away cheering, and some would send the pieces of meat from their bowls to their mothers.

"The hearts of the people are praised, ......"

At the edge of the construction site in the distance, an old man let out a sigh of emotion, then looked at Li Yun beside him, and asked with concern: "Is there enough food?" Old man, I see that your hand is a bit big. ”

This old man turned out to be Wei Zheng.

Previously, Wei Zheng had a dispute over the Yellow River, and as a result, he invited himself to dig the main canal, but this time because the eldest grandson queen inspected the customs, and the old man Wei followed the queen's frame to the northeast.

"Is there enough food?"

Old man Wei saw that Li Yun didn't answer, so he asked again.

Li Yun stood on the edge of the construction site with his hands in his hands, and suddenly smiled bitterly when he heard the words, and said: "From ancient times to the present, where is there enough food?" ”

Saying that, he looked at the hot construction site, and said a little helplessly: "I said that I have a big hand, Your Majesty is really big, I really didn't expect that Your Majesty actually requisitioned 300,000 people to come over, and it was not that I was preparing to buy grain a year in advance, and I really wanted to be caught off guard by Your Majesty's hand." ”

This sounded a little complaining, but the words were full of joy, Wei Zheng smiled and stroked his beard, and said meaningfully: "With population, it is good to build a country, throughout the dynasties, population is the top priority, as long as the lord can survive this experience, your Bohai Kingdom will definitely take off like a dragon." ”

Li Yun he

Just the people who live between the white mountains and black waters, roughly calculated, four or five million, plus the continuous migration of people from Shandong and Hebei, as well as the subdued and naturalized steppe Turks, the population must be more and more, and his Bohai country must have no shortage of people.

The only headache is that food is becoming more and more stretched, and this year it can barely be supported, but next year it will definitely become a big trouble.

Although it was possible to cultivate land, the grain production in this era was too low.

Li Yun especially hopes for a high-yield grain.
