After repelling Shi Xie's crusading army for the second time, and occupying Hepu County and Yulin County, the South Vietnamese State ceased to continue to invade Cangwu County in the east, and officially announced the restoration of the country.

The call of the imperial court became a complete joke, and except for Liu Biao and Liu Yan, who strengthened the defenses in the south, no other princes went to Jiaozhou to fight. After two failed crusades, Shi Xie also switched from offensive to defensive and no longer took the initiative to attack.

Yuan Shao was busy fighting with Gongsun Zhan to the death; Cao Cao was busy consolidating his rule over Yanzhou; Gong Jing is a good man at all, and Beihai is too guarded by Kong Rong under great pressure; Tao Qian got by in Xuzhou; Yuan Shu retreated to Nanyang and licked his wounds; The imperial court was busy opening up the Silk Road; Li Ming was busy with the specifics of spring ploughing.

"Why are you reluctant to cooperate? The grain standard will inevitably be replaced by metal money, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see it, why are they so obsessed? Li Ming read the reports from the following counties, and he was very dissatisfied with the fact that the territories of Lujiang and Jiujiang did not matter, and only Wu County, Huiji County and Fujian County cooperated in agricultural innovation in the other counties.

Li Ming already had 60,000 tuntian soldiers under his command, of which 30,000 were stationed in Yizhou, not only responsible for the military tun, but also responsible for the construction of seaports and residential areas.

There are many plains in the western part of Yizhou, and all of them can be developed to reclaim a lot of farmland. At the same time, it is close to the sea, and can be made into dried fish and fish floss through fish, and kelp and seaweed are also very important sources of nutrition.

With the help of Yizhou, the food problem in Huiji County and Fujian County can be solved, and the grain in Wu County can be hoarded to a large extent as a reserve for the subsequent war. However, the key is Danyang County and Yuzhang County, both of which have grain-producing areas, but they do not accept agricultural reform at all to increase production.

"What the local wealthy families are looking for is not only a comfortable economic system such as the grain standard!" Guo Jia has been by Li Ming's side for a while, and he is gradually no stranger to the unfamiliar word economy, "What they need is food, as for the development of our army, they even force the lord to compromise with them in some aspects."

In the past, food was money, so as long as you control food, you can control the lifeblood of the lord. Now that the lords are going to take food out of the financial system, they will have to pay more to get money. At the same time, the production of grain increases, and it becomes very difficult for them to restrain the lord in grain. They don't want that, so they can only desperately resist progress! ”

"What if I take the increase in output as the assessment index of each county order?" Li Ming asked.

"It's not very good, there are conditions for reform, they won't offend the family at all. If the lord persecuts too much, they can hang up the seal and leave, and in the end, the counties lack county orders, and even county officials, and these families incite a small number of rebels to rebel, which will not only affect the prestige of the lord, but also make the lord further lose control of the place.

Those poor scholars who have no conditions, but are loyal to the lord, they may try to do it. It's just that if the wealthy family has no income for a year, it will also make the county's guidance 'have problems'. At their instigation, the people will inevitably question our well-intentioned reforms, which will eventually become useless. Guo Jia said slowly.

"That's a big step, right?" Li Ming was suddenly depressed, "If you let them do this, the Huiji County and Wu County families, who were finally obedient, are afraid that they will make trouble again!" ”

"The metaphor of the lord is appropriate......" Guo Jia was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled a little unseriously, although this metaphor is vulgar, but it is a true temperament.

"There's no need to ridicule, what's the practical solution?" Li Ming asked angrily, his eyes were on Guo Jia, and behind Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu who were contemplating, "Wenhe?" ”

"Lord ......" Jia Xu arched his hand, "According to the report of the secret guard, Hebei is now fighting the hardest, and a large number of people have fled south. The subordinates have made the decision and guided most of the people to take refuge in Jiangdong in the south. In the near future, about 300,000 to 500,000 people will go south one after another. The subordinates thought that they could recruit about 50,000 to 100,000 Tuntian soldiers to open up wasteland in Changsha, Yuzhang, Danyang and Luling Counties, and as long as they planted land for a year according to the new method, with output and sufficient guidance, the people naturally knew how to accept this new technology. ”

The Tuntian soldiers were directly under the jurisdiction of the central government, and apart from Li Ming, only Ren Jun could be transferred. Ren Jun had experienced famine before, and he was very sad about Juntun, and after replacing Zhang Mo as the captain of Diannong, Juntun did a very good job.

Using Tuntian soldiers to use a large number of tuntian soldiers is a way to deal with the family.

"At the same time, the setting of standing positions in various places has been gradually restored, so that after the output is available, the grain will be sold at a low price for three years. And levy high taxes on all grain shipped to other places, and after three years, those families will inevitably have to give in. Xi Zhicai added.

Why did the families of Huiji County and Wu County give in, in the final analysis, Li Ming used a lot of workshops to coerce them. People have become accustomed to the benefits of dividends, and the increase in food production has become unavoidable, so that everyone has to accept the concept of metal money.

Danyang County, Yuzhang County, Changsha County and Luling County are not used to this, and the local families are still resolutely resisting.

"Do you want to give them some dividends?" Li Ming thought for a moment.

"The human heart is not enough, and the snake swallows the elephant...... If anyone resists violently, the lord can be big and let go of the small, killing chickens and making an example of monkeys. Li You has his opinion, no matter how big the family in the three places is, where is it to go, what is there to be afraid of?

Changsha County, which has been plagued by Wuling Man and District Xing, has been killed; Yuzhang County, close to Wuyi Mountain, was severely harmed by the Peng family in the past, and there were no influential families including Luling County. There is only Danyang County, not to mention anything else, the history of Xuzhou Thorn comes from Danyang County.

"Focus on Danyang County!" Li Ming immediately understood the point, "If you take the opportunity to have an excuse to send troops to Xuzhou......

"Maybe you can consider Guangling County and Xiapi Kingdom!" Guo Jia did not object to this, Xuzhou is an important grain-producing area, and at the same time, under Tao Qian's governance, it is much more prosperous than other places.

"Okay, discuss this situation and make a charter as soon as possible!" Li Ming nodded, and the four of them gave up their orders when they heard this, and then they were all powerful.

Li Minggang wanted to rest, but he didn't want Xiao Tao to run over in a panic, and exclaimed: "Master, Wang Ji is about to give birth, but Wen Po said that she is weak in physique, and she is afraid that she will have a difficult birth, even if she can give birth to a child smoothly, the mother may not be able to support it!" ”

Since ancient times, ladies have been described as wives, concubines are called by a certain concubine, and Diao Chan is Wang Yunyi's daughter, which is called Wang Ji.

"Go and invite Hua Tuo immediately!" Li Ming suddenly panicked and ran towards the back house.

"Master, it's filthy inside, it's not easy to get in......" A stable woman who had just come out of it looked at Li Ming coming over, and saw that she was about to break in, so she hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her.

"Don't talk about Wang Ji, even if Cai'er gave birth before, when did I not follow me? Get out of the way! Li Ming didn't care, and just broke in.

In the delivery room, Diao Chan kept screaming in pain, and the other two stable women continued to stop the bleeding, which shows that this time there was a situation of massive bleeding, and the process was simply thrilling.

"I checked before, the fetus is only six pounds, even if Xiu'er gives birth for the first time, she shouldn't bleed heavily!" Li Ming looked at Wen Po, for fear that someone was secretly doing something. Then he stepped forward, grabbed Diao Chan's hand, and used his pulse amputation hand to help her temporarily relieve the hemorrhage, and at the same time ordered someone to bring his golden needle.

"Master, the old body is wronged!" Wen Po immediately panicked when she heard this, "Wang Ji is talented, the outlet is narrow, which is not conducive to production, and it suddenly expanded, and there was a situation of heavy bleeding all of a sudden......"

"Husband......" Diao Chan said weakly, "Don't blame them, they are charming, and they do have side effects in this regard." ”

is charming, the more you cultivate, the more beautiful you become, and the better your figure becomes, but the price is the overdraft of your vitality, and there is another point, that is, you can't get pregnant at all. This set of exercises is obviously prepared for the concubine, Diao Chan was only used as an important bargaining chip for marriage at the beginning, she is not Wang Yun's daughter, so it is not surprising that she cultivates a thousand charms.

Diao Chan is indeed charming and natural, and she doesn't need to practice for long at all, she is already a stunning beauty. It is only by stopping cultivation that the possibility of having children can be obtained. It's just that the side effects of this exercise are too terrible, because of this difficult birth. One is not good, and it really has to enter the choice of keeping big or small.

The problem today is that the child cannot break through the uterus, is born out of the birth canal, and forcibly gives birth, which directly leads to the occurrence of intracavital hemorrhage. Go on, I'm afraid that the child won't be born, and the person will have lost too much blood.

"How's it going?" Hua Tuo broke in with two capable disciples.

"Stop the bleeding for the time being, but the situation is not optimistic......" Li Ming said slowly, and then moved out of the way and let Hua Tuo diagnose it.

After some diagnosis, Hua Tuo said solemnly: "Normal production is very dangerous, and now the only way is to find another way, to cut through the abdomen and take the child out!" It's just that in this way, I'm afraid of Wang Ji, and I won't be able to get pregnant again in the future......"

C-section, Li Ming was also concerned about the chaos, and soon realized this. However, as far as he knows, four or five years after the caesarean section, there is still a chance to get pregnant and give birth again, and if the body recovers better, it can be changed to a normal birth. Of course, in Diao Chan's case, I am afraid that she will have a caesarean section next time, and after the second time, she will never be able to get pregnant for the third time.

"C-section! Prepare the sterile room, fully disinfect the utensils, and prepare all the surgical instruments, time is running out! Li Ming hurriedly gave an order.

"Is that what Riyao said, the method of cutting open the belly of a pregnant woman to give birth? Be sure to let me learn on the sidelines! Hua Tuo was immediately interested when he heard this, and he heard Li Ming talk about the theory, but he never had the opportunity to try. Cutting the belly and taking the child, this kind of thing seems to have been done by the king of Zhou, and it is described as hurting heaven and reason, and it is against heaven and harmony.

But from a doctor's point of view, Hua Tuo thinks that as long as he can save people, as long as the method is effective, he doesn't have so many scruples!

The two soon reached a tacit understanding, and then the sterile room was prepared according to Li Ming's requirements, one of them was responsible for acupuncture paralysis, and the other was responsible for opening and suturing.

"Wow, wow, wow, wow......" The child's cry spread throughout the delivery room, and this operation, the mother and child were safe.

"Because of you, seeing how much your mother has suffered, I called you ...... Li Nan! Li Ming hugged the child and said in a low voice.
