Chapter 687: First Battle of the Tarnus (5)

The fat tea guest crossed the river, threw the rope into the turbulent water of the Tianjiang River, and burrowed into the woods by the river. He made his way north to the nearest town of Yugo, which was by the river. I found an inn first, washed and rested, and had a full meal. Then get dressed and go out into the street.

Looking around, I called a carriage, and I headed west.

The carriage stopped in front of a yamen.

The fat tea guest got out of the car and paid for the car. Walked into the yamen. The satellite guards on both sides of the yamen are like nothing.

There was a large courtyard in the gate, and there were houses on all sides. The fat tea guest walked directly into the lobby of the main house, and the lobby was empty. He walked into the back hall with ease.

Where I saw a stout man. Men wore Tarslav style clothing. Sit in a chair and eat tea. Seeing the fat tea guest coming, he suddenly put down the tea bowl in his hand.

The fat man bowed down and said, "My lord, my subordinates are back." ”

"How?" The man asked hurriedly.

The fat man said, "Lord Hui, the rumors are true. Now the whole Huahan is spreading this matter. The subordinates have inquired from many sides, at least dozens of people, more than a dozen regions. The arguments are all the same. Moreover, the most important thing is that Huahan's army has not changed except for the defense deployment along the river, and the army has been mobilized in some places.

From this point of view, after the court of Huahan knew that our policy had changed, they also adjusted their policy accordingly. It seems that they also don't want to fight. After all, the country had just been established, and the imperial court had implemented so many policies to benefit the people, and for a while, the financial pressure on the imperial court was very great.

And our Dayang policy just allows them to get a respite. The subordinates thought that the court of the Huahan Dynasty was also very satisfied with that half of the country. If we can't attack now, we won't attack. ”

After hearing this, the man's body sank slightly, and he exhaled a breath and sighed: "If we have enough military salaries to support us now, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to attack Huahan!" It's a pity, it's a pity. ”

The fat man said: "My lord, in fact, this is not a good opportunity, then Hua Han made a change after learning about our policy." Otherwise, they will fight us to the death. ”

"Well, you have a point." The man nodded and said.

The fat man said again: "My lord, now that the situation has been discovered, can my subordinates return to Beijing?" ”

The man said, "Okay, I'm going to go to Beijing to report the situation." Then you and I will go together. ”

"Yes, sir." The fat man arched his hand and said.

"Okay, you go down first." The man said.

"The subordinates retired." The fat man retreated.

The man took a sip of the tea bowl, put it down, got up and walked into the side door of the back hall. The door closed, and the window paper kept shaking.

Ten days later, the news was received in the palace of Tiandu. The ministers, including the Emperor, were delighted.

Prime Minister Lunta said happily: "Your Majesty, it seems that the situation in the Dahua Dynasty is not very optimistic. We're in Yo West, and we're worried. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "Yes, in this way, it gives us a good space for development." ”

Prime Minister Lunta said: "Yes, Your Majesty, we must seize this time to fill up the treasury. When the time comes, the army will be reorganized, attack Huahan, and take the world south of the Tianjiang River. ”

He smiled and said, "I didn't expect that we Tatar slaves would have to live like this." I think that in the past, we galloped across the desert, and we still cared about whether there was money or not, and we would fight wherever we went. Don't hesitate at all. But now. Ay! It is said that governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, but I think it is cooking a big meal! Really, if you don't get one link right, you won't be able to make a dish! ”

Prime Minister Lunta said: "Your Majesty, we Tatar slaves have lived in Mobei for a long time, and we live by hunting and grazing nomads. Naturally, I don't know much about this governing country. However, we have a few years of experience. As long as Hua Han doesn't fight, it won't take a few years for us to build a powerful empire. ”

The emperor nodded and said, "Okay, then from now on, it's time for you civil servants to show your skills." However, the defense of the south must not be relaxed. lest the Chinese man go back on his word. ”

Prime Minister Lunta said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, defense must be guarded, and we will send more spies to report the situation of Huahan at any time." Chen has already set out to have people build an underground station in Huahan. Agencies that specialize in gathering intelligence and then passing it on to us. In that way, we will all know Huahan's every move. ”

The Emperor was stunned and satisfied. He knew that as long as he held Tianjiang's elder brother town, it would be impossible for Hua Han to fight him. However, Hua Han's abandonment of the war is the real guarantee for him. He's about to start working hard to govern the country.

But he didn't understand it, so he could only rely on Prime Minister Lunta to preside. The current situation is that Prime Minister Lunta is becoming a hall of words in the direction of the bubble. However, he can only let it go. It's just that he has to keep an eye on this Lunta, so as to prevent his power from becoming too much and overpowering the emperor's power.

The emperor immediately ordered that, in addition to the necessary defenses, the rest of the army began to produce and train at the same time. The principle of giving priority to economic construction has also been gradually pushed to the forefront.

Prime Minister Lunta also learned from the Hua and Han dynasties and gave preferential policies to the peasants, but instead of exempting the tax burden, they reduced it appropriately to stimulate the peasants' enthusiasm for production. Ninety percent of the peasants who learned were Han Chinese. Because only Han people know how to farm.

But the Han resistance to their Tatars was also strong, and they all wanted to flee south of the Tianjiang River. As the prime minister of the Great Yang Dynasty, the first thing Lunta did was to win the hearts of the people, so that those Han people could live in peace, and then you could farm the land in peace.

First of all, if there are defectors, they will be killed, and the nine clans will be involved, which is an overweight punishment, and people have to weigh it if they want to escape.

And the tax cut can also reassure the farmers' hearts and make them feel at ease to produce.

The effect of the policy is obvious, and in one month, the number of people who try to flee has been reduced by 80%. That's quite an achievement. Prime Minister Lunta couldn't help but be complacent.

The country's full-scale production has also begun. Nearly half of those troops went to the desert to hunt and graze. I didn't forget to train during the period. It can be said that production and training are both right at the same time. It's just that in this way, the training intensity of the soldiers is much less. Naturally, the combat effectiveness was weakened.

But Prime Minister Lunta doesn't care about this, there is no war anyway, and the defense along the Tianjiang River is still very stable, which can be said to have been fenced. I want to talk about "Song Gui of the Financial Empire" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
