For the Northern Song Dynasty, the eighth year of Qingli is a year of first suppression and then promotion, at the beginning of the year, the turmoil of Yizhigao swept the entire Guangnan, but after the attack of the Dinghai Navy, it was quickly pacified, and in less than June, Yizhigao was extinguished, and the entire Guangnan was cleared.

After cleaning up the entire Guangnan, under the arrangement of Han Qi, the gradual development, the initial investment is only a foundation, and the follow-up, whether it is policy or personnel, has set off a peak for Guangnan, which is just because Guangzhou is a port and has just been developed, and gradually set off a climax.

Of course, in just half a year, even the road has not been repaired, even if Quang Nam has some resources, these resources, can not be used, at least in a year's time, Quang Nam is a state of net investment, only a certain amount of infrastructure, as well as personnel investment, after reaching a certain level, will bear fruitful fruits.

The development of Guangnan is just a future laid out by Han Qi, and under the changes of the eighth year of Qingli and several years, the entire Northern Song Dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes.

In agriculture, the farmland and water conservancy in the northwest and north continued to be consolidated, and these two large-scale projects continued to play a role, and similarly, the planting technology obtained from the Dinghai Navy also began to increase the promotion in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The peasants of the Northern Song Dynasty are relatively ignorant, but the literacy rate is not low, coupled with the example in front of them, maybe in the first year, there will be people who hesitate, the second year is also, and in the third year, no one will hesitate at all.

During these years, with the acquisition of the Ryukyus, the investment in agriculture has been increasing, and the Ryukyus are located in a tropical environment, as well as the influence of the marine climate, and it is possible to grow three crops a year.

In a year, the seeds can complete three or four evolutions in the laboratory, and similarly, the accumulation of time, the selection of parents and paternals, also makes the quality of seeds better and better, plus some chemical fertilizers and farm fertilizers, these are used flexibly, and the grain production begins to expand crazily.

The average yield per mu in the Northern Song Dynasty, from a little more than 2 stones, began to increase rapidly, in the sixth year of Qingli, it has exceeded 3 stones, and reached 3.5 stones in seven years, and in 8 years, because there are not many disasters, the northwest and north have a bumper harvest, which has increased to 4.5 stones.

The increase in yield per mu represents an increase in the total amount of grain, and similarly, the northwest and Youyun have increased a huge amount of land, which also made the grain production of the Northern Song Dynasty reach a peak in the eighth year of Qingli.

If there is too much grain production, the price will often be lowered, which will affect the income of the peasants and cause waste.

In this era, there is one more Dingjun, as long as it is extra food, to a basic price, Dinghai is a large number of recycling, the same, canned food and compressed biscuits, these are not very difficult to complete, the Northern Song Dynasty is also learning, and gradually learned that dry compressed dry food can be stored for at least 3 years, or even longer, this is not bad for storage.

Grain is the basis of everything, an increase of 1 billion, converted into value, that is, 500 million guan, not to mention, these cannot be sold, Dingjun bought a total of about 500 million stones, a total of 200 million guan, this, most of the income is the income of farmers, converted into hundreds of millions of farmers, the annual increase in income is not much.

However, cash crops were the focus, and in the northern part of the Northern Song Dynasty, in addition to using the planting method of the Dinghai Navy, at the same time, instead of planting two seasons of grain a year, cotton was planted in the other season.

Since the discovery of cotton by the Dinghai Navy, it has been cultivated and selected for several years, and the scale has been completed, and the annual planting area has increased year after year.

In the fifth year of Qingli, small-scale planting began, and in the sixth year of Qingli, it expanded by 10 times, and then in the seventh year of Qingli, the penetration rate of cotton reached 40% in the entire north, nearly 400 million acres of land, that is, a total of 160 million acres of cotton were planted.

Through scientific planting, the yield of cotton is not very high, the output of 250 kg of seed cotton per acre, a total of 40 billion catties of cotton is harvested, and 8 billion catties of leather surface can be produced.

This is a very terrible number, you know, the clothes commonly used before are linen or grass cotton, silk, the number of these things is not much, for the poor, to be able to have a piece of clothing a year, is already good, no more, not a matter of money, is not.

But now, this output can already be guaranteed, with an average of 80 catties of cotton cloth per person, and after deducting the amount of quilt and cotton clothes, each person may be able to make seven or eight clothes.

A large number of raw materials were added to the factory, and a large number of factories with the cotton textile industry as the main body obtained sufficient raw materials, and the Northern Song Dynasty began to use cheap clothes, and the price of cotton cloth was also reduced from the beginning, the price of a piece of cloth has been reduced to one-half of the original, about 500 Wen a horse.

In other words, even if the loss of lint is used, the price of a pound of lint is more than 70 Wen, that is to say, a simple acre of cotton can obtain more than 4 yuan.

This amount is very staggering, and if it is converted into rice, even if the income is 5 koku, it is only 2 yuan, and the cash crop is really a cash crop.

The cultivation of huge cash crops not only allowed farmers to obtain more income, but also increased the basic product, and the total amount of tax revenue also increased.

In the eighth year of Qingli, the financial revenue of the Northern Song Dynasty was once again raised to a higher level, and an astonishing 130 million guan was obtained, which was 30 million guan higher than that of seven years.

Even at present, under the premise of the gradual expansion of the financial revenue of the Northern Song Dynasty, 30 million guan is a terrible number, which is almost one and a half times the fiscal revenue four years ago.

From the perspective of investment in railways and highways, for the time being, large-scale construction, especially the construction of roads, is very useful for increasing income, and things that were worthless or wasted in the past can now be used.

Those wild fruits in the deep mountains are also collected, and processed and transported to make money, making money has become the main theme of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Northern Song Dynasty government only needs to continue to invest.

Because of the large-scale increase in finance, the financial balance continued to increase, and because the financial situation was more generous, the development of Guangnan led by Han Qi itself obtained more funds, from the original number, almost 30%.

If you have money, many problems can be solved, and in the eighth year of Qingli, it is not without disasters, in the north, in some places, there are droughts, and in some places in the south, there are floods.

However, with the investment of funds, the drought can be solved through water conservancy and deep digging of wells, and the flood, as long as the water conservancy facilities are not broken, the impact is not large, at most some waterlogging, even if it is broken, it does not matter, the harvest is a little bit, and the government can come up with enough funds to provide relief.

This is the benefit of having money, even if the harvest in one place is out, and the harvest in other places is huge, you can mobilize funds for relief, and by the way to save yourself, in this case, there will be no family ruin, there is hope, stability, there will be no greater danger, the formation of rolling disasters.

Eight years have passed in Qingli, and there have been slight changes in history, and its own should have been changed to Huangyou in this year, but because the Qingli year was too good, since the fourth year, the problems of the Northern Song Dynasty have been solved one by one, and even Renzong has been much easier, so the name of this era has been continued, and this year itself should be a year of Huangyou, and it has become the ninth year of Qingli.

In order to celebrate, especially if there was nothing to do, except for leaving the necessary personnel, the entire center carried out a 30-day holiday, and similarly, a lot of various holiday rewards were also issued, and the entire court was full of jubilation.

Under this jubilant atmosphere, the entire Northern Song Dynasty was peaceful, because the days were getting better and better, and the treatment was also high, even the officials had a rare opportunity to rest.

In Dinghai, it was a different scene, a tense scene of slaughter, for the simple reason that war was coming.

From the appearance in Guangnan and the reaction of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Dinghai Navy has gradually changed, and various aspects have been accelerated a lot, and after the end of the eighth year of Qingli, this change has accelerated.

According to the previous plan, the attack on the Liao State will be at least two years later, when all aspects of the Northeast have been stabilized, Suihua and other cities will be completely completed, and these cities will be connected through Gehong's railways and highways. Consider attacking the Liao State and destroying the Liao State.

This is the most secure, but also the smallest sequelae, don't look at Mongolia and the Northeast, there is not much population, but the territory is big, a huge territory that is not small compared to the current Northern Song Dynasty, if you want to digest it thoroughly, it takes time, 2 years is just a foundation.

It's best to play steady, but now, it seems like you can speed it up.

The reason for the speed-up, in addition to one aspect, is that with these actions of the Northern Song Dynasty, if the Northern Song Dynasty really discovered the true strength of the Ding Navy, would there be turmoil, so that he would not be able to attack the Liao State again.

If you can't take the Liao State, you won't be able to get a huge amount of land, and the navy is still on the island, and there will definitely be problems.

The island nation is prone to collapse, which is also proven in later history.

However, it is an adventure to carry out in advance, and it is not an adventure, because the development of the north is quite smooth, even if you start it now, there are some problems, but the whole problem is not big.

When formulating the plan, the time of estimation was to take into account some problems in the navy itself, and to leave a margin, the entire margin, to prevent any problems from being encountered.

For example, when the nomadic tribes were cleared, there was an accident, and for example, they had already encountered the intervention of the Liao State.

But now, the development of things is very smooth, with the joint efforts of countless military and civilians, now the north is centered on Suihua, has been initially improved, between Suihua and Vladivostok, at least 4 highway routes have been established, and there are highways that gradually spread to the south, and the traffic between the core cities is very convenient.

Even if you go out at this time, it will have a certain impact on the corners at most, but as long as there are no enemies around, there will be no major problems.

The two were superimposed together, and finally prompted this huge military operation, the previous Vladivostok landing, which was a relatively large attack, mobilized 500,000 troops, or 1 million people, this time, the number of mobilized people is less, after all, there is no need to build, only war, but the number of troops used is more than the number of once, creating a record of the navy.

For the attack on Liao, it was also divided into three parts, with Mongolia as the west and Suihua as the north, landing on the Liaodong Peninsula, from the south, three directions, respectively, 300,000 troops were mobilized, that is to say, for this war of annihilation, a total of 900,000 troops were used.

This scale of mobilization, in the entire history of the Liao and Song dynasties, is also a peak number.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, tens of thousands of troops recovered Youyun, and they did all this with the strong defense of the fortress against the Liao State.

However, no matter how the Northern Song Dynasty said it, it was only tens of thousands of people, and the Ding Navy used 900,000 people at once, even when the Liao State was completely victorious, the entire military strength was only a little stronger than the Ding Navy, about one million, of which four or five hundred thousand were still numbered, and the elite troops were within six or seven hundred thousand.

The generation gap between the era of hot weapons and the era of cold weapons has made the distance between the Liao State and the Ding Navy huge, 600,000 people, and basically cut off the possibility of Liao's survival, and it is even impossible to escape.

The mobilization of more than 900,000 people, which are in three aspects, the easiest is in the Dinghai Navy, through a large number of ships to transport the past 300,000, as long as it is transported from the Dinghai to the Liaodong Peninsula, and then landing, this part is the easiest.

Compared with Vladivostok, which once landed, it is at least two-thirds closer, and the sea area is relatively calm.

The two-way army in the north not only needed to occupy a huge city, but also needed to block the position of the main force of the Liao State, divided into a record army, and completely outflanked it.

Now that the Liao State has lost a large amount of land, it still has millions of square kilometers of land, and to completely outflank it, it needs not only enough troops, but also a good plan.

From the beginning of the appearance of Quang Nam, the Dinghai Navy began to make preparations, the route of attack, the number of troops used, and the methods of operation, which I don't know how much deduction was done in the General Staff, and now, it has finally reached the final state, and all the commanders and generals are confident, and they are ready to go.

After a series of preparations, in April of the ninth year of Qingli, on a sunny day, a huge fleet full of 300,000 troops, as well as various weapons and equipment, logistics supplies, etc., quietly sailed out to sea from the Dinghai Navy, their target is more than a thousand miles away from the Liaodong Peninsula and Bohai Bay, a total of 12 places will land, when the time, each team, will be aimed at a target, they will set off the prelude to the war to destroy Liao.
