Chapter 159: Greeting the Holy Driver

Knowing that Lin Feng knew in advance that the Song State would send troops, and the two countries secretly had an agreement, at this time, Lin Feng was also unwilling in his heart, after all, there was a day to recapture Shaoliang County, and Lin Xiao didn't say much.

After a little filtering his thoughts, Lin Xiao knew the beginning and the end of the matter.

The Song State has despicable means, however, the countries are vying for hegemony and the war is continuous, so don't say that the Song State will take the opportunity to blackmail the Yan State, if the Yan State is in the position of the Song State, it will not watch the Song State rise strongly.

Besides, the princes on all sides are eyeing each other, even though Yan Guo has accumulated strength rapidly for two years, it is still temporarily unable to resolve the crisis.

It's not that Lin Xiao doesn't understand these truths, but he is quite clear, but he didn't know the whole story, he didn't return from the victory in Yan Kingdom, and he learned that Song Kingdom took advantage of the attack in his heart, how could he be willing in his heart.

Now, considering the overall strength of the Yan Kingdom, even Lin Feng chose to forbear, and slowly figured it out, then the Yan Kingdom would not crusade against the Song Kingdom, and the two countries temporarily turned hostility into friendship.

"Brother Huang, don't worry, my brother won't be frizzy next time, I'll go to appease the army, the affairs of the Song Kingdom, I can't bear it today, and I can't use the sword soldiers." Lin Xiao nodded and turned to leave.

Looking at Lin Xiao's back as he gradually moved away, Lin Feng clenched his fists tightly, but in fact, he was already angry.

When the two countries agreed, Yan had not yet gone deep into the grassland, and there was a harvest on weekdays, and most of them were gold, silver, jewelry, horses, cattle and sheep.

In the end, Yan Guo paid a lot of costs, especially when Hou Mingfeng's troops suffered nearly half of the casualties, he broke into the three counties of the Hunhe River, risking great danger to capture the three counties of the Hunhe River.

It stands to reason that the capture of the three counties of Hunhe has no connection with the Song State, and it is even more impossible to fight with the agreement, but the Song State sent troops.

Why? It's not that the Song State is strong, and he doesn't want the Yan State to rise under his nose, and it's not that he bullies the weak, and when the Yan State wins, he gives the Yan State a horse, showing the strong position of the Song State in the north.

Lin Xiao can't bear this matter, and he can't bear it either!

However, when Yan and Song started the war, it was not possible at the moment, and the Donghu cavalry was not trained, not in a short time.

After capturing the three counties of Hunhe, the territory of Yan State became more and more vast, and the garrison became more and more scattered, and if you want to attack Song State, you will definitely not be able to do it without hundreds of thousands of troops, so under the right circumstances, all the strength of Yan State will be twisted into a rope, all of them will be hit at the other side, and Song State will be strangled alive.

In the carriage, the two beauties naturally heard the words of the two brothers Lin Feng, the two did not understand the government, but the Lin Feng brothers said it clearly, no matter how stupid the two were, they could also hear the helplessness in Lin Feng's tone.

Unless the king is indifferent, he will allow other countries to trample on the land and seize the territory, not to mention, Shaoliang County is the Yan army fighting the fire and fighting desperately, changing hands to the Song Kingdom, Lin Feng is not angry, and Yan ** Shi will also be indignant.

Lin Feng walked into the carriage, Yang Zixi stretched out his hand to hold the man's hands, and said faintly: "Xianggong, is it a matter of the court again?" ”

"It's okay, if the Song army doesn't move Shaoliang County, it will lose more in the three counties of Hunhe."

。。

Accompanied by Yang Zixi in Youzhou, Chu Xiangyu raised troops for six days, during which Lin Xiao and Hou Mingfeng led the army south, only the blade soldiers and Heng Bangchang stayed in Youzhou. After six days, the condition of the two was greatly relieved, Lin Feng led the blade warriors, took the two beauties south, and arrived in Yanjing after another five days.

At this time, it is already the wax moon, and in another month, it will be the New Year again!

On the day of returning to Yanjing, Lin Xiao led his ministers to hold a grand welcoming ceremony at the north gate.

Lin Feng went deep into the grassland, wiped out more than ten Donghu tribes, and when he was dying, he was not afraid of danger, and made a surprise attack to seize the three counties of Donghu.

In this battle, the majesty of the Yan country was played, and the momentum of the Yan country was played. The century-old decadence of the Yan Kingdom was swept away.

War consumes manpower, material and financial resources, and war brings victory, but it can greatly enhance the self-confidence, pride and cohesion of the people.

The sky was slightly cool, and there were scattered snowflakes floating in the air, which fell on people, and immediately turned into water stains, wetting the clothes of pedestrians.

However, unlike the slightly cool world, whether it is the hundred officials who greet the holy driver, or the people who have been looking forward to it.

At this moment, proud, enthusiastic, and with a smile on his face that had never been seen before.

At this moment, a thought that came from the heart, the pride of the country, permeated the hearts of all people.

At this moment, a kind of self-confidence that had never been seen before, like a brilliant cloud, spread from Yanjing and rushed in all directions.

They live in a bad era, but they live in the best era, and they will witness the rise of the Yan Kingdom and recreate the former glory of Great Yan.

Riding on a tall horse, looking at the people rubbing shoulders on all sides, Lin Feng never expected that such a scene would happen when he returned to the south, and in the face of the crowds of people, he was proud and spontaneous in his heart.

Lin Feng waved his hand and beckoned to the people on all sides, and suddenly, the shouts and shouts came from the crowd, and everyone's enthusiasm was completely ignited.

"The emperor is blessed!"

"The emperor has worked hard!"

"The emperor is eloquent!"

“。。”

Bursts of praise, like a warm spring breeze, spread among the people and entered Lin Feng's ears.

This has to be put in the past, when Lin Feng returns from a great victory, no one will praise Lin Feng, and it is fortunate not to scold him for being the king of the country.

Now, Lin Feng has a very high position in the hearts of the people of Yan Kingdom, and the conversation after tea and dinner is all related to the conquest of Yan Kingdom and the thriving development of Yan Kingdom.

The people are very simple-minded, whoever is good to him, he will support whom, whoever benefits him, he will support whom, in the past two years, Lin Feng has promulgated a new policy in Yanguo, involving a wide range, and many people have benefited.

The family became rich, and there was surplus food and money in their hands, which led to the development of commerce in full swing.

The imperial court had a source of taxation, and the people's lives became more colorful.

Moreover, Lin Feng has been fighting abroad for half a year, and the queen, with the flexibility and patience unique to women, has spent a lot of effort to implement the newly promulgated policies, and strive to avoid contradictions, so that the carriage of Yan Kingdom will be on the normal track.

Unlike half a year ago, today's Yan Kingdom exudes a vibrant scene up and down. This autumn, the autumn tax levied is different from the three million taels of silver in previous years, excluding the Bishan area, which is not taxed for the time being, and the tax revenue of the five old states of Yan Guo alone has 5 million silver lines.

Seeing that half a year is about to pass again, the spring tax in the coming year must be paid more.

The new additions are not comprehensive, but in the case of a significant reduction in the people's taxes, the treasury taxes have increased significantly, and if the top-down reform is completely carried out, the Yan State may have earth-shaking changes.

It is no wonder that the people have such a high degree of enthusiasm for Lin Feng at the moment, and they did not hesitate to brave the wind and snow to greet him at the north gate.

Lin Feng dismounted, the hundred officials saluted, the people saluted, he hugged his fists and saluted, stood in front of the north gate, glanced at the officials and the people, Lin Feng said in a strong voice: "Today, I have returned from a great victory, and it is better to be happy alone than to be happy, so at this time, I announce a good news."

From now on, the three counties of Hunhe are owned by Yan State, and all the people of Yan Country, regardless of men and women, old and young, rich and poor, as long as they want to go to Hunhe and Xiapi two counties, they only need to board the plane in the government to make a register, and each person can get ten acres of fertile land or more in the two counties, remember, it is ten acres of land per person, not every household. Moreover, the imperial court will also support the people who go to the two counties in the policy, and give corresponding subsidies, such as ploughing cattle, seeds, etc., which are urgently needed for spring ploughing. ”

Since the promulgation of the new policy of Yanguo, especially the implementation of the mercantile policy, the identity of the ordinary people of Yan has become complicated, except for a few people who have good land, they are still insisting on the life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset, and producing grain to pay rent. Many people who did not have land began to choose to engage in business or work part-time to survive.

The development and prosperity of commerce, the shops, and the handicraft families, are enough to feed these people, who are not rich, but can also have a good life, and those who know the craft, the hard-working people, get more income every day.

According to the current drive, the commerce of Yan Kingdom will become more and more prosperous, however, Lin Feng currently has to move millions of people to the Hunhe River and Xiapi.

At any time, ordinary people and even big landlords have a strong land plot, and unless it is a last resort, few people leave the land.

The rise of commerce in the Yan Kingdom has diluted the people's land cleanliness with a very small force, but it has only been diluted, but it has never been extinct.

Lin Feng knew that if he wanted to move the people to the Hunhe River and Xiapi, he had to start with the people of Yanjing, and the land annexation on all sides of Yanjing was really serious, and besides, Yanjing was a big place, gathering more than half of the population during the five states of Yanguo, which was too dense.

Taking advantage of the fact that the people greeted them at the north gate, announcing the news in a timely manner was far more than the promulgation of policies by the court, and the effect came quickly and well.

He hoped that some people in the Yanjing area would take the initiative to migrate to the two counties under the Hunhe River to settle down, where there were vast fertile fields, sufficient water sources, and drought and flood harvests.

In the Yanjing area, such a large piece of land can be sold for a lot of silver, but go to the Hunhe River and Xiapi to get it for free. Some people move to two places, and the Yanjing area, whether it is land price, rent, or population density, will drop significantly, which is not without benefits for business development.

The price of land decreases, the materials used to make goods are reduced, the rent is reduced, and the merchant does not have to spend extra money. However, the population is decreasing, but things can be transported to the three counties of Hunhe.

There is not only the production of grain, but also often with Donghu and other places to exchange with the have, the grassland cattle and sheep, fur, and other objects, are rare in Yanjing, with their own products sold to the three counties of Hunhe, and from where to bring back the goods outside the Sai to sell, the south and the north will have profits, not only to increase the exchange between the two places, but also to expand the income of merchants.

However, Lin Feng didn't pay attention to these for the time being, he preferred that the people would move to the Hunhe River and Xiapi. After all, without a million people settling down in the two counties, the vast fields there would be wasted, wasting a year's harvest.
