Neutralization four years, the end of March.

The Tang court suddenly ordered Zhu Quanzhong to be the king of Peijun, the king of Han Pheasant, the king of Julu, the king of Yang Xingmi Runan, the king of Liu Hanhong Huainan, and Wang Jingwu as the captain of the school.

The king with a different surname, and so many at once, the court took action.

This move is really ruthless, and it is a fair and honest conspiracy, since you Zhu Quanzhong is the king of Peijun, the fief is in Pei County, do you attack Xuzhou in the east to take the fief, or stick to Henan, and claim the king and hegemony behind closed doors.

For others, the same is true, for example, Yang Xingmi is the king of Runan, where Runan is, it is in Caizhou, for Caizhou, which is occupied by Qin Zongquan, whether you Yang Xinmi will attack or not.

Just when the Guanzhong feudal towns were on guard and ready to move, Li Changfu, the envoy of Fengxiang Jiedu, brazenly sent troops into the river on the grounds that Wang Chongrong in the river refused to make an offering.

Zhu Mei, the envoy of the extension of the festival, dispatched troops, looked at Fengxiang, and was suspected of taking advantage of the fire to rob.

Shuozhou, Zhu Li, Guo Qizuo, Guo Chongtao, Wang Yueyao and others, believe in the reins of horses, leisurely tour the fields and canals, it seems to be very leisurely.

Wang Yueyao was the first to speak: "The imperial court has rewarded the Kwantung Domain Town this time, which is intriguing. ”

"Han Pheasant, they don't confess, it should have completely angered a certain old guy in the court, this trick is played beautifully, without spending a single soldier, let Han Pheasant, Zhu Quanzhong and others, each on guard, Guanzhong Domain, for a while, the soldiers are all over the horse, and the wind is loud." Guo Chongtao echoed thoughtfully.

Guo Qizuo, who was sitting on the horse and accompanying Zhu Li, was not moved by the topic of the two, and went straight to Zhu Li and said: "It's nearly March, the general should have made up his mind, should we attack Hedong in the south, or sweep Beidi in the north?" ”

When Zhu Li heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he spoke: "Attacking other feudal towns for no reason, does Mr. still want me to be a rebel?" ”

He glanced at Guo Qizuo angrily, and continued: "Gaosu's side, it seems that there is trouble, the remnants of the party, the Uighur cavalry, and the Khitan warriors have suddenly gathered in Fengzhou, and their intentions are unknown. ”

"The three fertile soils between the rivers are Yunzhong, Fengzhou, and Yinchuan, and now we have eaten Yunzhong, Yinchuan County is not under our jurisdiction, Fengzhou must be taken down, and even the entire surrounding area of Yinshan Mountain, it is not impossible." Zhu Li narrowed his eyes and said very firmly. (Tang Dynasty: The former set belonged to Yunzhong County; The back set belongs to Toyozhou; The west set belongs to Yinchuan County. ）

Zhu Li's decision to go north to Fengzhou is to bring this fertile land under his rule, and later generations will be known as the treasure land of "plugging the south of the Yangtze River" and "plugging the granary", how can it fall into the hands of the Di people.

Every time it is a nomad, a horse thousands of miles, going south to knock on the pass, is it not allowed that the army of the Han Dynasty is not allowed to expedition to the north and expand the territory in the north, some people say that it is difficult, in Zhu Li's eyes, all difficulties are used to overcome.

When Guo Qizuo heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and after a few moments, he said: "The general wants to bring the Fengzhou region under his rule, and we will definitely fully support this, if his subordinates have not guessed wrong, the general seems to have the intention of going on an expedition outside the Saiwai, I wonder if his subordinates have guessed wrong?" ”

It's good to have smart people around, draw inferences from one another, and know the elegance after hearing the string song, Zhu Li looked at Guo Qizuo in a daze, and asked: "I have this intention, why not?" ”

Seeing that Zhu Li really intended to do this, Guo Qizuo looked sloppy and said earnestly: "The Liaoyuan is endless, and the land is vast, but it is difficult to let crops grow on it. ”

"Yes, General,

It is very cold in the north, and it is difficult for crops to grow, even if it lays a huge territory, it is still a meadow, which is in vain. Guo Chongtao hurriedly stepped forward and echoed Guo Qizuo.

Seeing the two talents persuading Zhu Li together, Wang Yueyao was a little worried, after all, she had been in contact with the two gentlemen for a long time, and she recognized the abilities of the two of them, and the things that the two of them agreed on were usually not wrong, so he was afraid that Zhu Li would make a mistake.

This guy's character, she has been taught, at the end of the year, Zhu Chun and Zheng unanimously asked Zhu Li to let him and Wang Yueyao get married first, but this guy resisted the pressure of his parents, but he didn't agree.

In this era, most of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old men are fathers, but Zhu Li is good, now she is eighteen years old, and she still has no plans to get married.

Although Wang Yueyao looked very indifferent on the surface, she was already anxious in her heart.

She knew that Zhu Li had a Yu Chi Jin in her heart, if she could marry Zhu Li before Yu Chi Jin, she would definitely be able to stabilize that Yu Chi Xiao Niang in the future, this was her careful thinking.

Zhu Li didn't refuse to marry her, but she didn't plan to get married now, but she was sad about this beautiful girl.

"Did the two gentlemen oppose Zhu's Northern Expedition because there was no suitable crop cultivation on the vast land?" Zhu Li turned his head, looked at Guo Qizuo and Guo Chongtao, and wondered.

When Guo Qizuo heard this, he nodded, shook his head again, and said angrily: "The general is only half right, Liaoyuan is vast, there is no barrier, even if we take this land and work hard, once the Di people attack and plunder again, the people will inevitably suffer again, the Di people are endless, and Liaoyuan is uneasy." ”

Zhu Li thought about it when he heard this, and said: "The north is bitterly cold, but it is not impossible to become arable land. ”

Speaking of this, he thought of the later generations, in which many crops could be planted in a large area in the north, and the yield was not low, such as: corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, peanuts and so on.

But now after all, it is the end of the Tang Dynasty, and most of the crops on the Shanhaijing were planted by the ancestors of the Yellow River Basin, and few are suitable for large-scale planting in the north, which leads to the vast northern plains, but few Chinese sons and daughters have the luxury of returning them to the territory.

However, the crops suitable for planting in the north, although there are very few, does not mean that there are none, such as radish, cabbage, soybeans, millet, millet and so on, thinking of this, he said: "We can plant radishes, cabbage, soybeans and so on in this area, as far as Zhu knows, radishes alone have spring and summer radish, summer and autumn radish, autumn and winter radish and winter and spring radish, the growth period of radish is very short, about two to three months, you can harvest once." ”

"The monograph "Erya" thousands of years ago, the "Qi Min Yaoshu" written by Jia Siqian in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the "Materia Medica" written by Su Gong of this dynasty all talked about radish, from planting technology to edible and medicinal use, all of which were introduced."

"And the yield of radish is not low, not only the buried fruit can be eaten, but the leaves on the ground can also be used to cook porridge, cooking, etc., as long as the people of my north are diligent, they can be planted here all year round, supplemented by planting millet, millet and other crops, who said that there is no suitable crop to be planted in Saibei."

Guo Qizuo, Guo Chongtao, and Wang Yueyao looked at each other when they heard this, Zhu Li understood it so clearly, and said it well, obviously they had put in a lot of effort, and they were not talking nonsense, so it can be seen that using this article as a reason to stop the other party's Northern Expedition obviously won't work.

"Even if there is

Suitable crops, but in the face of the ubiquitous Di people, the people can't survive in this place? Guo Chongtao did not give up.

When Zhu Li heard this, he glanced at him indifferently, and asked instead of answering: "What are the herdsmen on the grassland most afraid of?" ”

When the three of them heard this, their expressions were stunned, Wang Yueyao was full of worries, so she naturally didn't bother to use her brain, and looked directly at Erguo, Guo Qizuo deserved to have stayed in the north for several years, and his understanding of the situation was detailed and extensive, and after a little thought, he said: "The herdsmen of the grassland are most afraid of plagues and natural disasters, especially animal diseases; Then there are fires and wolves. ”

"Not bad" Zhu Li glanced at Guo Qizuo approvingly, and continued: "The reliance of the grassland battle in all directions is fast horses, longbows and scimitars, but in the face of agile, swift, and mainly herd wolves, these reliances on them will not play much role. ”

"The three of you know that wolves and dogs have very similar temperaments, and we can feed dogs, so we can naturally raise wolves." Speaking of this, Zhu Li looked around at the three of them and said proudly: "Herdsmen can raise cattle and horses, we can raise fierce wolves, and we exclusively hunt cattle and sheep on the grassland." ”

"If the herders were grazing in our generation, they would be attacked by wolves, and we could even have people with wolves and often attack their tribes, and over time, would they dare to graze in this generation."

Zhu Li looked at the three of them confidently, he didn't say a word, the wolf meat marinade came out, in fact, it was very delicious, and the later "Diet Recipe for Hidden Residences" said: "Replenish the five internal organs, resist the wind and cold, warm the stomach, and aphrodisiac and fill the marrow", it can be seen that wolf meat is a good thing.

Raising wolves is also his idea for a while, provided that the wolves must be controllable, which requires professionals to operate.

"Wolves?" Guo Qizuo frowned.

Guo Chongtao and Wang Yueyao were also very novel, hearing the wolf, Wang Yueyao even forgot some of her thoughts, and looked at Zhu Li with an incredible look on her pretty face.

The man I chose by myself is really extraordinary, and I really want to think about it.

"Yes, it is the wolves, these wolves are raised, for the nomads, it will form a certain deterrent, if we are in a certain period of time, the captured land is managed, supplemented by wolves to guard, as long as the difficult years, absorb enough population, you can build a city to live, when the cities rise up on the grassland in the north of the Saibei, at that time, it is easier to resist the Di people."

When Guo Qizuo, Guo Chongtao, and Wang Yueyao heard this, they all fell silent, and Er Guo carefully thought about the feasibility of Zhu Li's idea, while Wang Yueyao was committing a nymphomaniac.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, there were many races of the Di people, and they did not belong to each other, and the more famous ones were the Khitan, Xiren, Tuhun, Tatar, Murwei, Bai, Yuju, Niang, Nuzhi, Uighur, Tubo, Qikun and so on.

And Zhu Li is ready to clear Yinshan, he must face the Khitan, Tatar, Murwei and other nomadic peoples, in the north of Yinshan, these three races, almost all have clansmen living there, livestock and wolves are harmful, let these people move, is his goal.

"Okay, if the general can be successful in raising wolves, and his subordinates support the general's northern expedition to the grassland, the alien race has been wandering outside the pass, and it will be a disaster to the people of the Central Plains for me sooner or later."

"If the general is successful, we are in the face of nomads, has been in a passive defensive situation, will be greatly improved, to a certain extent, will master the initiative, wolves are carnivorous beasts, I hope their cattle and sheep are enough." Guo Qizuo squinted his eyes and took the lead in speaking in support.
