After a while, Cai Lin came in, he had been the prefect of Yongzhou for some years, and today he actually got the news of the emperor's visit, and he was immediately overjoyed.

"Cai Lin, the prefect of Yongzhou, meet the official family!"

Cai Lin knelt down to salute.

Ming Jian raised his hand, motioned for Cai Lin to get up, and asked him to sit down.

"Aiqing is Taishi Cai's nephew, right? How many years have you been in Yongzhou? Ming Jian asked, he had the impression that this Cai Lin was Cai Jing's relative.

Cai Lin hurriedly said: "The minister is Cai Jing's nephew, but the minister and the old thief have long drawn a clear line, and they have never helped to abuse him, and he doesn't believe that the official family can read the documents of the household department." ”

Ming Jian laughed and said: "I believe this, otherwise, you won't be able to do it in this position." Haha, Cai Zhifu, this Yongzhou is located on the border, and the climate is hot, there are often poisonous insects and beasts, I don't know how the lives of the people have been in these years? ”

Cai Lin sighed with relief and said: "Qiqi Guanjia, the territory of Yongzhou, the population is not large, but it can be self-sufficient, but the land is indeed scarce, the weeds grow too fast, there are too many wild beasts, and the grain production is difficult to guarantee." Over the years, the minister has been organizing the people to reclaim wasteland and weed, but the effect is not ideal, if the population can be doubled, the minister is confident that Yongzhou will become a prosperous place. ”

Ming Jian said with a smile: "This Yongzhou, I'm afraid people don't want to come, but after the merger of the two Guangzhous into one road, soon the governor of Tianjiao Road will take office, I believe that he will have a way." ”

"The merger of the two Cantons into one road? Official, when did this happen? Cai Lin hurriedly asked.

Ming Jian said: "I discussed this matter with the cabinet yesterday, or it won't be long before the cabinet will follow, and then the two Guangxi will be merged into a road, called Tianjiao Road, your Yongzhou, will become the forefront of Tianjiao Road, it is very important, when the time comes, you will take you here as the focus, you make an appointment with the prefect of Qinzhou and the prefect of Lianzhou, let them rush over, and I will also meet them." ”

When Cai Lin heard that Yongzhou would become an important part, he was overjoyed and said: "Yes, the minister will order someone to go to Qinzhou and Lianzhou overnight, and let the prefect of Cheng and the prefect of He come over." ”

"Don't be in a hurry, just get there within three days." Ming Jian said.

"In fact, this agricultural development, in addition to population, arable land, but also have good grain, I plan to plant a large number of rice, peanuts, fruits and tea in Tianjiao Road, so that Tianjiao Road will become another granary of the Great Song Dynasty, you see, this is the seeds of peanuts." As he spoke, Ming Jian took out a bag of peanuts from the system like a trick and handed it to Cai Lin and Liu Guangshi.

The two looked at it for a while, obviously they didn't recognize it, peanuts were basically introduced to China in the Ming Dynasty, so naturally they couldn't identify them.

"Official, this little beanie is a peanut?" Cai Lin asked.

Ming Jian nodded and said, "That's right, this thing comes from overseas, and its fruit is nutritious, and people can prolong their lives and nourish their bodies when they eat it." It has not been planted in Huaxia. The climate of Tianjiao Road is very suitable for planting this thing, and if it is cultivated in large quantities, the agriculture of Tianjiao Road will be greatly developed. ”

Although Liu Guangshi is a soldier, he also has a great interest in peanuts, he said: "Official, is this peanut yield high? ”

Ming Jian said: "If the planting is good, there is no problem with a yield of 5 stones per mu." There is a lot of land on Tianjiao Road, reclaim it to plant peanuts, weeds must be uprooted, when necessary, you can set fire to the mountain, although the wildfire is not exhaustive, but burn a few more times, I'm afraid it will burn to death, right? Also, raise more cattle and sheep, so that weeds can also be used, the development of agriculture and the development of animal husbandry come together, I don't believe it, can it still develop? There are also fruit trees, but also to plant more, fruit trees are not afraid of weeds, once the trees are planted, it can also attract people to Tianjiao Road, fruit sales will definitely be good, more planting, more cultivation, when the time comes, the imperial court will send people to guide you to plant fruit trees. General Pingshu, the soldiers should also join in, tuntian is an important means of self-sufficiency, the soldiers participate in farming, which will make the local development faster, and in the future, they will also benefit. ”

The three of them stayed up late to discuss until late at night, and then they gave up.

The next day, Ming Jian first went to inspect the army.

Liu Guangshi's ability to train troops is still good, mainly infantry, supplemented by cavalry.

In this place, large-scale cavalry is not very realistic and of little use, and most of the time, cavalry is used to report information.

The physical fitness of the infantry can be seen, they are all very strong, the food is good, and they are all vigorous and well-trained.

In the instrument performance, it is also not bad, the sense of team cooperation is very good, Liu Guangshi has learned some lessons, this training is stronger than the previous Liu Jiajun.

Ming Jian suddenly felt that if he added more fire to Liu Guangshi, would he become a master immediately?

Looking at Liu Guangshi's data, it is not very good.

Name: Guangshi Liu

Force: 78

Intelligence: 78

Politics: 79

Health: 85

Comprehensive evaluation: partial candidates.

No matter how hard he tries, Liu Guangshi can't achieve the same results as Yue Fei. I don't know why history listed him as one of the four generals of ZTE, at this level, what is ZTE?

However, Ming Jian still encouraged: "General Uncle Ping, your army has a good momentum, what is lacking is only actual combat experience." Go, order the whole army to equip the crossbows and swords that you gave you last night, and then let the soldiers practice the ironclad chariots, and I will see how effective it is. ”

Liu Guangshi said happily: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Soon, everyone changed into new weapons and began a new round of performances.

The use of the crossbow was basically taught, and there were sights, which became an instant favorite of these soldiers.

But when the ironclad chariot drove up to the school grounds, everyone was stunned.

After basking in the sun for a while, the ironclad chariot had energy and could be started.

But at first it was very slow, and after driving for a while, the speed became faster.

Ten ironclad chariots moved forward in one direction, and then began to fire long crossbow arrows, ten long crossbows flew out of the quiver of the ironclad chariot, directly inserted into the school wall, and then rushed out again, flying more than a hundred meters before landing!

"Hahahaha, this thing is amazing, with it, who dares to fight with Da Song Ye again?"

Ming Jian laughed out loud!

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! ”

.......

The crowd shouted.

Ming Jian waved his hand with satisfaction, the shouting stopped, and Ming Jian said to Liu Guangshi: "General Ping, training the army and formulating tactics based on the ironclad chariot, the enemy will be at a loss, of course, these ironclad chariots are the important weapons of the country, and they must be well protected, if they fall into the hands of the enemy, they will suffer, so if the people are in the ironclad chariot, if the ironclad chariot is lost, then your head will not be saved." ”

Liu Guangshi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the officials don't have their heads, and they have to keep the ironclad chariot!" ”

Ming Jian nodded, with Liu Guangshi's words, then rest assured, this guy is known as the general who escaped, and now he gave him a direct death order, I'm afraid he won't dare to run away again, right?
