Chapter 883: Raised Fist (Sixty-Three)
Chen An interjected and said, "Your Majesty's benevolent heart is very admired by the ministers. ”
Liu Yong smiled and said, "Treat your own people, of course, your relatives should be kind. However, it is not merciful to the enemy. As the saying goes, the most enemy's mercy is cruelty to oneself. You must remember this sentence! ”
Chen An, Wu Qing, and Zhao Liang all agreed.
Liu Yong continued: "My idea is that the sergeant's harassment is very certain, but at the same time as the sergeant's harassment, it can encroach on the territory of the Tatar slaves little by little, so that it is better. Also, as for the economic situation, cutting off trade routes is one thing. It's better that someone can mess around in it and create the perceived panic so that no one invests. There were no trade routes, no investment, and the Tatars could not develop their economies if they wanted to. ”
Zhao Liang arched his hand and said, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. Chancellor didn't expect that. ”
Liu Yong said: "Things must be thought deep and must be done to the extreme. For example, military harassment, if you can occupy some small territory, it will take a long time, and it will also be a big blow to the Tatars. ”
Zhao Liang said: "It's Your Majesty, the minister remembers." ”
"Okay, let's talk about it here today, you go back and study in the depths and see what else you can come up with." Liu Yong said.
"Your Majesty."
Chen An, Zhao Liang, and Wu Qing said in unison.
"Stand down!" Liu Yong said.
"The ministers are leaving." The three of them spoke in unison, and then exited the main hall.
Liu Yong was in a good mood, at least the policy towards the Tatar slaves had changed from defense to offense. The Tatar slaves have become defensive, and they can only defend and not attack. This made Naleng and the entire Dayang Imperial Court feel uncomfortable.
In the palace of the Great Yang Dynasty, Nalen asked Lunta and thought that he was a general, and said, "Why can't we take the initiative to attack the Huahan Dynasty?" I feel aggrieved, you know? ”
Lenta and the general glanced at each other, and Lenta said, "Back to the Holy Lord, the attack can be attacked. But this is a battle across the river. Moreover, the Han army still has firearms, and our casualties are probably immeasurable. I'm afraid they all died in the river before they crossed the river. What a risky act! ”
In fact, Naleng also knows the powerful relationship between this. But he just felt aggrieved, and let the Han army surround him like this, and he had a feeling of being breathless.
When Lenta had finished, Nalen did not speak. After a while, the general spoke, and he said, "Holy Lord, our current forces are already a little overstretched for defense alone. If you want to say that the attack on the Huahan Dynasty is not a full-scale attack, I am afraid that there is no chance of victory at all. If it is a full-scale attack, it will leak flaws and be caught by the Han army. If you don't talk about other places, let's talk about Pingliangzhou. That's a dangerous place.
The Han army can continue to transport troops from the south of the Tianjiang River, and when our army crosses the river with all its might, the Han army will be like a sharp sword from Pingliang Prefecture straight into our Middle Earth. Shengshang, the loss of Pingliang Prefecture is equivalent to letting the Han army show its fist above our heads, and this fist may be defeated at any time.
To put it more seriously, that fist can also be a sharp sword. Once chopped down, we are likely to be killed on the spot. Of course, now that Pingliangzhou is still just a fist, and has not formed a sharp sword. However, if we plan to cross the river and take the initiative to attack the Hua Han Dynasty, then this fist will immediately turn into a sharp sword. Straight to our hearts. ”
The more I listen to it, the more annoying it becomes! Angry, he slammed the table. Frightened Renta and the general.
The two no longer dared to speak.
After a long time, Naleng lost his breath and said, "Why are we so difficult? The military is suppressed, but the economy is not good? In the end, I think it's a dead end. ”
Lenta hurriedly said, "The Holy One is too worried. Now, as long as we can hold on, we will be able to get time to develop the economy. As long as we can develop the economy, the court will have money, and the common people will have money, then we will be able to compete with the Han army. At that time, we will expand the size of the army and develop more cavalry, which we are best at. Then wait for the opportunity to fight to the death with the Huahan Dynasty and recapture the land north of the Tianjiang River. ”
Naleng didn't react when he heard this, and said after a moment of silence: "Anyone can say it, but I don't know how to do it." Now we can defend against the Han army, but you don't even have a strategy for developing your economy, so it's developing? ”
Lenta said, "Holy Lord, the minister has already come up with a plan. ”
Na Leng was a little interested, turned his face, and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Lenta said: "Holy Lord, these days, the minister and several subordinates have to study until late every day, and these plans have only just been discussed, and no specific implementation plan has been made!" ”
Naleng said, "Then you can talk to me first!" ”
Renta nodded and said, "Okay, Holy One." Saint, the main income of our Dayang Dynasty in the past was agriculture. However, the development of agriculture seems to have been regressing, and the output of grain is declining year by year. As a result, the income of our imperial court has been decreasing year by year. There is no way to increase taxes even on agriculture, because the peasants simply can't grow as much food.
Those peasants did not pay enough grain to pay the public, and they themselves did not have a grain to eat. In this way, no one will deduce farming anymore. This minister has said it before, and now he has made a policy. This time, Liu Yong has already begged for rain, and the minister believes that by the beginning of spring next year, the food problem will be basically solved.
However, in the opinion of the ministers, no matter how much food there is, it is not so valuable. Moreover, even if all the peasants came to farm, I am afraid that it would have a great effect on the income of the imperial court. Therefore, the idea of the minister is to change the way the imperial court earns money. ”
At this time, Naleng interjected and said, "How to change? ”
"Vigorously develop handicraft workshops. ”
"But, now I've heard that no one on the street wants to invest in a small workshop. ”
"That's because the policy of the imperial court is not good, and secondly, because they have made things that have nowhere to sell," Lenta said. The common people are too poor to even afford clothes, can they buy anything else? ”
Naleng listened to it and muttered for a moment, and said, "Yes, I also heard that the common people have no money!" ”
Lenta said: "Of course, even our Dayang Imperial Court has no money, so will the common people have money?" ”
"So how are you going to solve this problem? I think it's hard. Naleng said.
Lenta smiled and said, "The Han people often say that there is nothing difficult in the world, but they are afraid of people with hearts." There will be a way. "The return of the financial empire
