Chapter 148 Ensuring Agricultural Development
After Ming Jian sealed Liu Chang and Liu Zhang, he said: "King Wu is a meritorious minister who followed Gaozu, and now that the country is restless, how can the imperial brother stay in Wu and enjoy happiness?" Lone now appoints the imperial brother as the general, and after going back to deal with the affairs of the Wu State, he will come back immediately and prepare to lead the army to fight against the Xiongnu! ”
Liu Bi's face was full of laughter now.
"Haha, it seems that this Liu family has to rely on the old man!" Liu Bi was secretly proud in his heart.
However, he hurriedly said: "Thank you for the trust of the regent, and you will definitely live up to your mission and level the Huns!" ”
"Liu Ze, the king of Langya, obeys orders!" Ming Jian said again.
Liu Ze was still depressed, Liu Bi was made a general, and his elder should also be entrusted with important tasks, right?
Hearing the picture of Ming Jian, Liu Ze hurriedly jumped out and said, "The old minister is here!" ”
"Uncle Huang is highly respected, and he is well versed in the way of using soldiers, so he ordered you to be the supervisor of the army, and he will go out with King Wu on a certain day." Ming Jian said.
"The old minister takes the order!" Liu Ze was also happy.
This appointment confused the generals, and Zhou Bo was about to jump out to speak, but was pulled by Chen Ping and retreated depressedly.
However, this phenomenon was also clearly seen by Ming Jian.
"Let's discuss it here today, the prime minister and the captain stay, and the rest of the people will retreat first." Ming Jian said.
"The ministers are leaving." The ministers immediately retreated out of the Weiyang Palace.
Only Chen Ping and Zhou Bo stayed.
After the ministers left, Zhou Bo couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Regent, why did you let King Wu and King Langya lead the troops to the battle?" Could it be that the regent thinks that the old minister can't move anymore? ”
Chen Ping shouted: "Old guy, you are bold! How can the regent be questioned like this? Don't you know the regent's intentions? Liu Bi and Liu Ze are both old, if there is any accident on the battlefield, what do you say? ”
Zhou Bo let out an 'oh', patted his head, and said, "Oh, the old man understands, understands!" Regent, this Liu Wei is not a good thing, the old minister heard that he can mint coins by himself in Wu State, and secretly hide soldiers and horses, this time let him attack the Huns, great, if he returns in vain, he can be punished for his crimes, if he dies on the battlefield, the court only needs to posthumously seal him, haha, Liu Ze, this old thing, is not a good person, two days ago he came to the old man, let the old man support him to ascend the throne, and let him deal with the Huns, just his old bones that were hollowed out by wine, this time it will never return! The regent is brilliant! ”
Ming Jian said with a smile: "Lord Taiwei has won the award, the vassal states are a burden and hidden danger for the imperial court, and in order to make the Han country develop steadily, it is necessary to gradually weaken the strength of the vassal states." King Yan and King Zhao were both brave and ruthless, and it was also for this purpose to let them deal with the Huns. The other vassal states, the lonely generals followed this decision, not only the Huns in the north can fight, but also the Nanyue Kingdom in the south, that Zhao Tuo is not really obedient to the court at all, it is time to beat him. After fighting the Xiongnu and South Vietnam, this battle will still not be over, two uncles, can you understand Lone's hard work? ”
This is indeed the case, there is also a Weiman Korea on the peninsula, enough for these princes and kings to attack, and when they die in battle one by one, then there will be no problem in cutting off the vassal state.
"The heart of the regent, the old surrender." Chen Ping said.
Zhou Bo also said: "The old minister also obeyed." ”
Seven days later, Ming Jian officially ascended the throne as emperor. He proclaimed himself Emperor Taizong and changed his name to a local tyrant.
The ceremony is simple, the current national strength of the Han is still very weak, and Ming Jian does not want to waste money on this.
At the same time, at the enthronement ceremony, the arrangements of the princes, kings, officials and harems were decided.
The position of the king of Daiguo, Ming Jian was left to his uncle Bo Zhao, Bo Zhao was familiar with Daiguo, and he was also infected by Ming Jian's policy, and now Bo Zhao's ability is not weak.
Bo Ji was promoted to the queen mother, and the position of the queen was replaced by the queen's maiden, and Dou Nu and Min Nu were both named concubines.
The emperor's eldest son, Liu Qi, was named the crown prince, and Ming Jian set up an heir for himself, cultivate it early, and once he leaves, he will completely hand over this copy to Liu Qi at that time.
After ascending the throne, Ming Jian issued an edict to grant amnesty to the world, and a series of policies that benefited the country and the people began to be implemented.
Winter is coming to spring, and all counties are busy.
In line with the agriculture-oriented policy, Mingjian has invested a lot of energy in agriculture.
The first is to grow grain, which is basically from Daiguo and then distributed to various places, and Daiguo has become more and more mature after years of exploration.
Every year's statistics, it can be seen that grain growing is getting better and better. Therefore, the grain grown by the country is used throughout the country, and Ming Jian can rest assured.
The second was agricultural tools, and Ming Jian ordered a large number of quyuan plows, waterwheels, etc., to be built, and then sent to various places.
As soon as these farm tools arrived, they were touted by the common people and liked them very much.
Everyone hopes to be able to live the same life as the people of Daiguo, and with Daiguo's grain and such advanced agricultural tools, there is great hope.
Ming Jian encouraged the people to raise a large number of poultry and livestock while farming, so as to invigorate the economy. Especially pigs, cattle, and sheep, eating meat will be better, and the labor force is insufficient, which means that there are definitely not enough breeders.
Ming Jian ordered the construction of a large livestock farm outside Chang'an City, and at the same time encouraged all counties to build livestock farms in the county magistrates and recruit special personnel to manage them.
In this way, when the time comes, the slaughtered livestock will be sold to the common people, and the lack of meat in the Han Dynasty can be changed in the short term.
At the same time, Ming Jian ordered Lu Jia, a retired doctor at home, to go to South Asia to search for traces of Champa rice.
In order for the people to be fed and rich, this Champa rice must be obtained.
The current rice and upland rice yields are not high, which is not enough to support the warehouses of Dahan. And it will soon face a population peak, and with Champa rice, there is no fear of running out of food.
Ming Jian was convinced that according to this rhythm, within five years, the Great Han would become stronger.
In order to increase the agricultural harvest, Ming Jian also ordered the formation of a team of professional ditch digging to dig ditches for the people all over the country.
Of course, they can also dig wells, and their main task is to deal with water, and if they are short of water, they can find them.
Another guarantee of agriculture, there is Jinyiwei, Ming Jian ordered Jinyiwei to send special personnel to inspect all places, where to do a good job, where to do a bad job, and then deploy from it.
Those who do a bad job will be punished, and those who do well can be praised.
In this way, it is no wonder that the peasants can still be full of enthusiasm to arouse their enthusiasm.
......
In the north, an army of 200,000 led by Liu Bi, Liu Ze, Liu Chang and Liu Zhang set off towards the Huns' station.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty trusts us so much, if we don't succeed this time, how can we come back? Chuan Ben's order of the general: The army will go out of Jizhou and smash the Khan court of the Huns in three ways! ”
Liu Bi pulled out his long sword and ordered in high spirits.
