CHAPTER XXXIII

But since there is the hot sale of sea buckthorn wine, people began to pay attention to sea buckthorn, and slowly people found that this sea buckthorn can not only make wine, but also cure diseases, and it is also a miraculous plant to remove altitude sickness. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Almost all the wasteland around the city has been planted with sea buckthorn, even Di Feng did not expect that this sea buckthorn is more than that, it is cold-resistant, drought-resistant, wind-resistant sand, can also grow in saline-alkali land, the temperature requirements are also low, there is almost no place where it can not survive.

So Di Feng mobilized the border people again and planted a sea buckthorn forest on the border line of the Green Mountains. In this way, as the planting border line is encroaching towards the Great Eclipse little by little, Di Feng thought about it, once there is a war in the future, the cavalry advantage in the face of the sea buckthorn forest Eclipse will be invisible.

Of course, it is unrealistic to resist the big food just by relying on a few shrubs, and in the end it is necessary to rely on a strong armed force and a strong economic foundation, Shule has a regular army of 60,000, plus a fragmented armed force can also make up hundreds of thousands of troops, imitating Taizong's military system and combining with the reserve of later generations, Anxi is not far from saying that all the people are soldiers.

Bisha has Yuan Mu's 30,000 horses, as well as more than 10,000 elites of Kunlun Academy, and Wang Fangyi is already enough to deter Da Shi and Tianzhu after forming a line, Di Feng now has to be counted as exchanging positions between Yuan Mu and Gao Xianzhi at Yumen Pass, Yuan Mu guarded the city because he did not lead the troops to attack, and Gao Xianzhi has been training in the rear of Tubo for a year to lead the troops to attack better than Yuan Mu, Di Feng has now begun to consider whether to find a time to let Gao Xianzhi move in the direction of Da Shi.

Bisha and Shule have no future troubles now, just waiting for the recuperation to recuperate, and once the treasury is full, Di Feng intends to expand to the big and small Bolu.

And now Broken Leaf and Gongyue City are the weakest link in Anxi, most of the land in Anxi is barren, only the fertile land of Broken Leaf is the main grain producing area in Anxi, so Di Feng did not let Gaoshe Chicken develop business, he is willing to fund Broken Leaves, as long as Broken Leaves can produce grain and support other provinces in Anxi, it is enough.

However, the terrain to the west of the broken leaves to the area of Dashi is flat, and there are remnants of Persia eyeing the tiger, which is already difficult to defend, not to mention that there is no one to defend Gongyue City in the east, and then there are Tiele and Turks to the east, and there are strong enemies on both sides, so that the pressure of the Gaoshe chicken is not small.

When Di Feng and Lou Shide arrived at the broken leaves, the high house chickens had already come out to pick them up, although the broken leaves did not have the lively scene of merchants gathering in Qiuzi and other places, but the grain fields were surrounded by water, and the wheat waves also had another style with the wind. Compared with Qiuzi and Xizhou, Broken Leaf is more like a paradise for farming and animal husbandry.

Now that Broken Leaf is supported by several cash crops provided by Di Feng, the people's lives have been greatly improved, but Gao Xianzhi still complained worriedly, "Grandpa Guo, Gongyue City is a key trade route in the north, and there are many merchants who come and go, but I am no longer able to guard Broken Leaf and take care of Gongyue City by myself, do you think you can send me another helper to manage Gongyue City!" ”

Di Feng naturally knows the difficulties of Gao Sheji, now there are only a thousand people stationed in Gongyue City, and the management is handed over to the local Tiele Gongyue Department to manage, how can those tribes have any management experience, in the past, Gongyue City was only a small tribe in the northwest border, and they can still maintain management, and now with the mutual market of Turkic, Tiele and Anxi, the merchants of various tribes will pass through Gongyue City, which also makes Gongyue City quickly develop into a famous big city in the northwest, with a population of nearly 200,000.

The Gongyue Department no longer has the ability to control Gongyue City, and now Gongyue City is in chaos, not to mention that the rent cannot be collected, and it is necessary to often ask Gao Sheji to send troops to maintain order in Gongyue City.

And Gao Sheji has the heart to sit in Gongyue City, but there is Di Feng's order to defend the grain base of Broken Leaves, and he does not dare to go in person, seeing that several other towns are rich in business, and he guards the "cornucopia" of Gongyue City, but he has to pay subsidies every year, so it is strange that he can not be angry.

Talent shortage! This is the common aspiration of Di Feng and Gao Sheji.

Gongyue City and Broken Leaves are actually of equal value, Di Feng has long been fighting the idea of Gongyue City, the east of Gongyue City is the steppe of Anbei, the north is the future Kazakhstan, and now Karaganda has boundless land waiting for people to develop, where coal and iron are abundant.

If Di Feng wants to balance Anbei in the future, he must rely on Gongyue City to expand his resources, but he has no talent! Especially the talents who can lead the army to expand the territory on the outside and reassure the people on the inside.

Di Feng first thought about Hei Tooth Changzhi, but Black Tooth Chang Zhi couldn't look down on Di Feng and ended up dead; Li Duoqi is a talent, but this person's speculative mind is too heavy and he is too useful; Ashina Daozhen Di Feng didn't dare to let him become bigger anymore, in case Ashina Daozhen annexed East Turkistan, this was something Di Feng didn't want to see, and Ashina Daozhen still controlled the land of Tingzhou, Yizhou and Qibi, and he didn't have the ability to be distracted.

The rest are all radishes and pits, no one can move, the only one who can use it is Zhang Qianqiao, but it is still unknown whether Zhang Qianqiao can be persuaded to come to the northwest again, but who should be sent to manage Gongyue City now? .

Di Feng was worried, but Lou Shide interjected to let's go to Gongyue City first, if you need it, the old man can recommend someone to help the Duke of the Kingdom govern Gongyue City.

The person recommended by Lou Shide made Di Feng not dare to rest assured, he did not express his position immediately but vaguely revealed the words, and set off with Lou Shide and Gao Sheji to Gongyue City.

Gongyue City is now twice as large as the city, and there is a lot of chaos inside and outside the city, tents, thatched huts, and earthen houses are mixed together, sewage flows everywhere, and the dung of cows and horses is scattered everywhere, and you can smell a fishy smell before you get close.

Except for the military camp of Gaosheji, which is quite tidy, there is not even a place to settle in other places, and the stalls of merchants from all over the country are blocked tightly because no one manages them.

Looking at the residents of Gongyue City, the polarization of the rich and the poor is presented, the rich are silk and satin, and the fresh clothes are angry horses; The poor were in tatters and begging along the streets, while those people from the Gongyue tribe were like gentlemen in Chang'an City, rampaging through the city with hounds and being unscrupulous.

Gao Sheji can be regarded as a civil and military all-rounder, and he couldn't help blushing when he saw this scene, after all, this is under his rule, and he has become like this, and he is already ashamed of himself.

Di Feng and Lou Shide had seen the comfort and prosperity of other places, and when they saw this scene in Gongyue City, they felt that the contrast was too great.

Although he was mentally prepared, no one expected that Gongyue City would be chaotic like this, Lou Shide couldn't help it at first, he said loudly: "Such a prosperous place has become like this, I will ask for a guarantee that one person will be able to govern this place into a prosperous place." ”

Di Feng was also speechless, he had already recruited Wu Tan, but the place Di Feng gave Wu Tan was in Xuanchi, and Wu Tan was still on the way, in desperation, Di Feng could no longer oppose Lou Shide's suggestion, he could only take one step at a time, if the person Lou Shide promoted was not in line with Di Feng's wishes, then he could only be squeezed out again.
