Chapter 313: Back to Beijing!
"That's it?" One of the generals felt he had misheard.
Shi Jiuyin closed his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "We don't have any advantage, if this battle is fought, we will definitely lose, for the time being, we will give in, retreat to the realm, and think about it in the long run, if there is a chance, we will definitely not let go of Wei State!" Shi Jiuyin opened his narrow eyes, blooming with a cold light and insidiousness.
The generals couldn't help but shudder, poisonous and ruthless, insidious and despicable Jiuyin Hou is coming!
After some time, the 200,000 Yan army began to withdraw.
When Wei Li learned that the Yan army had retreated, he couldn't help but be surprised, and at the same time, he was sure that Shi Jiuyin was a smart general and knew that it would not be good to deal with the Wei army.
The armies of Yan and Chu retreated, and Wei Ya immediately ordered 700,000 troops to garrison Zhaigou on the border of Qi and Yan, with the commander Xiahoude, the deputy marshal Gu Wu, and the 160,000 troops stationed in Datong on the border of Qi and Chu, the commander Gongsun Xin, and the deputy marshal Luo Yiren.
The 200,000 army of Qi was also adapted by Wei Li, and the systematic training of Wei was carried out once, and then he returned to Wei with Si Zhong, as for the equipment of the 200,000 army of Qi, when he returned to the royal capital, he would send someone to send equipment.
In the twenty-seventh year of Zhengyun, on August 6, Wei Li and Si Zhong finally returned to Tianjing City.
The nearly two-year-long battle to unify Jiangnan has finally ended!
"Immediately summon the ministers to enter the Taizheng Hall to discuss matters!"
Wei Li ordered as he walked towards the Taizheng Hall.
Si Zhong and Wei Ya were both dressed in military uniforms, and they hadn't changed their clothes yet, Si Zhong subconsciously looked up at the sky, and said, "Your Majesty, the sun has set, why don't you rest for one night and have a court discussion tomorrow?" ”
"Time is life, what about the night, the Taizheng Hall is not without lights!" Wei Li said disapprerovingly.
Now I go to rest by myself, how to sleep, I don't know what the situation is now, how to sleep.
"No!" Si Zhong had no choice but to respond, so he ordered Xiao Liuzi to summon hundreds of officials to the palace for discussion.
"Your Majesty!"
Suddenly, an anxious call came, and I saw Zhang Mi hurrying over with Li Rong'er and a group of palace maids.
Zhang Mi looked at Wei Li's side and found that there was no one else except Si Zhong, and couldn't help crying: "Your Majesty, where is Xin'er? ”
It's been two years, she doesn't know how much she misses Wei Xin, Wei Xin grew up with her nose low since she was a child, and now she has been separated for two years, she misses and talks every day.
Wei Ya is a little uncomfortable, I haven't seen you for two years.
"Don't worry, Xin'er is very good, he didn't lose his face on the battlefield, and now he is still stationed at the border of Qiyan, and he is still a military candidate!" Wei Li smiled a little proudly.
Wei Xin relied on his own efforts to successfully be promoted from a pawn to a soldier, and the soldiers under his command were very obedient to him, and he was not underestimated because of Wei Xin's young age.
Wei Xin was actually twelve years old, but he lied about being sixteen years old in the army.
"What? Didn't come back? Zhang Mi's face was bitter, her focus was not on promotion and meritorious service at all, for her, Wei Xin was the future King of Wei, what was a mere military candidate, even if she became a general, it was nothing.
"Okay, Xin'er has grown up, she is not a child, she is waiting for two years, and the widow will let Xin'er come back!" Wei Ya assured with a solemn expression.
Two years later, it will be the time of Wei Xin's crowned adulthood!
Zhang Mi bowed her head with a worried face and was silent, and when Wei Li saw this, she threw a look at Li Rong'er.
Li Rong'er understood and immediately left with Zhang Mi.
After a period of time, hundreds of civil and military officials entered the palace one after another and entered the Taizheng Palace.
Wei Li had been sitting on the king's chair and waiting for a long time, and when the minister learned that Wei Li was already waiting in the Taizheng Palace, he couldn't help but speed up his pace, much like a student who was about to be late.
The monarchs and ministers of Wei have not seen each other for two years, and many ministers have seen Wei Ya as if it was yesterday.
"Your Majesty, you're finally back!" Meng Ge said wistfully.
Wei Li saw that Meng Ge had changed a lot in the past two years, and his jet-black hair had grown a lot of white hair, and his expression was haggard.
"Meng Aiqing has worked hard, and you Aiqing have also worked hard!" Wei Li sighed.
The young man who was about to be in his sixties stood up with a red face, bent down with a smile and said: "On hard work, how can there be hard work of the king, we courtiers are just working in the palace, and you, the king, have to go on the horse to fight and govern the country, the old minister really admires it very much!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, what are we to you!" He Qiu also stood up and said.
"In his position, seek his responsibility!" Meng Ge opened his mouth and said.
"A good one is in his position, a certain responsibility, and the widow is even pleased!" Wei Li said with relief.
"Okay, let's not talk about the old days, let's talk about the situation of my Wei Kingdom!" Wei Li looked around at the ministers with a solemn expression and said in a serious tone.
Meng Ge took a small step forward and respectfully bent down to make a report: "Your Majesty, my Wei State now takes the entire Jiangnan into its arms, with a territory of about four million li (square kilometers), a population of 16 million, 40 million acres of fertile land, and 1.8 million young people!" ”
As soon as Meng Ge's words fell, He Qiu also stood up and reported: "Your Majesty, the twenty-fifth year of Zhengyun and the twenty-sixth year of Zhengyun have two bumper harvests, but they are not big harvests, two autumn harvests, our dynasty has collected a total of 2.3 billion stone grain, and the gold, silver, iron and copper mines in the mountains have been exhausted, and only iron ore remains!" ”
"At present, the treasury and the granaries of the counties have a total of 8.2 billion stone grain, 235 million taels of silver, 1.343 billion taels of gold, and countless jewels, in addition, the commercial tax collected in the past two years has reached 90 million taels, 40 million taels in the 25th year of Zhengyun, and 50 million taels in the 26th year of Zhengyun!"
"In two years, the distribution of nobles and officials from all over the country has reached 300 million taels of silver, with an average loss of 150 million taels of silver a year, and the army has consumed 14 million stone of grain in these two years!"
"What about the palace expenses?" Wei Ya asked out loud.
Although the expenses of the palace belonged to the Shaofu, after Wei Li took power, they were borne by the treasury.
"A total of 140,000 taels in two years, an average of 200,000 taels a day!" He Qiu replied respectfully.
Wei Li nodded, although there were not many people in the palace, the queen's daily food was not a bargain.
As for the bumper harvest that the Wei State has ushered in in the past two years, it is naturally the systematic reward that Wei Ya has destroyed the countries, and the Qi State that has been destroyed this year is another bumper harvest this year.
Not only is it a grain bonus, but there are also five iron mines, three silver mines, two gold mines, and four copper mines in the system space!
"Well, the widow knows!" Wei Li nodded, and then asked again, "How much does the school spend every year?" ”
When Meng Ge heard this, he immediately replied: "King Qiqi, the six states of Wei spend 600,000 taels of silver every year, and in addition, the territory of the four kingdoms of Che, Dun, Thorn, and Qi is ready to be divided into two states, one Yizhou and one Yongzhou, and part of the land of the Three Kingdoms of Che Dun is Yongzhou, and the rest of Qi is Yongzhou!" ”
PS: "Next, we have to speed up the pace of reunification, there is still a lot to be done!" ”
