Chapter 225: What the People's Heart Desires Liaodong Red Jade
This hillside is very similar to the Huangzhuang in Luoyang, a small hillside, there is a small dam under the hillside, behind the dam is a small reservoir, and there are hundreds of acres of flat land on the side of the reservoir beach, so the Luoyang Huangzhuang is copied from the set.
There are many Sichuan mandarins planted on the mountain, and some grasses are planted, and the climate in Yizhou is pleasant, and these grasses grow well. There is cotton at the bottom of the mountain, there are some sorghums, there are many pigs and ducks, and some aquatic crops are grown on the shallow waters of the reservoir. Li Wei also saw dozens of acres of rice, walked straight over, looked at the neat rows of rows and plant spacing, and asked, "When did Yizhou start planting this kind of crop?" ”
"Your Royal Highness, it is rice, Yizhou has been planted for many years, that year the minister did not know, the yield has not been high, until this kind of transplanting began, I heard that there is actually a mu yield of two stones in the south, Your Majesty popularized this kind of 'standing raising' in the country, the minister also tried to plant some."
The yield of two stones is still not high, but the price of rice is several times higher than the actual price of corn. Li Wei nodded and said: "Actually, it's still a matter of selecting seeds, I can't be in a hurry, if I continue to choose for a long time, the seeds will get better and better...... Food is the foundation of the country, a hundred-year plan, and a thousand-year plan. ”
There are only two stones in Jiangnan, and the output in Yizhou will be even lower. But Li Wei will definitely not be satisfied with this output, more than 200 catties of rice per acre of field will be put in the future generations, and more than one billion Chinese will starve to death. This is still the yield of the rice planting method, and you can imagine the result of sprinkling it in the field. In fact, the yield has not come out, but you can see that the rice flowers have begun to appear, and the rice plants have grown and set, which is really unsightly. It is estimated that seeds are a key factor, even if there is no chemical fertilizer or pesticide, it should not be difficult to ask for 1,000 kilograms or 500 kilograms, and 5 or 600 catties per mu. The southwest is a problem of food and clothing, and the whole Tang Dynasty is still a problem of food and clothing, mainly the output of grain, and the output of one mu of land is less than two stones to four stones, which will be an astonishing number. And four stones are not difficult......
Seeds have a suitable process of evolution, and the time will be very slow, but you have to choose your own seeds, choose the best seeds, and choose them once a year, and you can become good seeds.
"Yes," Yizhou officials replied in unison.
The matter of grain began with the prince. Last year, there were also experimental fields in Yizhou, and the effect seemed to be good, and this year it has been promoted a lot, and increasing production has become inevitable. Speaking of which, it has a lot to do with this prince. Prince Ren said that this prince was the star in the sky, and said that the southwest ...... Yizhou Thorn Shi came over and asked curiously: "Your Highness, the minister heard about the Southwest Conference Alliance in Yizhou, and Suzaku appeared. ”
"Hey, how do you know?" This pretending to be a ghost was only tinkered with in the southwest, and it can't be taken seriously.
"Some merchants heard that Yaozhou was pacified and went to Yaozhou, and after they came back, it spread one after another, so the ministers heard about it. I wonder if this is true? ”
"I don't know," Li Wei replied angrily. I can't say that I pretended to be a ghost, what do the chiefs of the southwestern tribes think? Immediately counterproductive. But it can't be said to be true either. Yizhou thorn history is inexplicable.
Li Wei immediately changed the topic and came to the cotton field, where there were already cotton peaches hanging on the cotton branches, and asked, "There are also people in Yizhou who grow cotton." ”
"Yes, it's still the minister who asked the saint for it. Let's see if we can grow one in Yizhou. If you can plant it, when the weather is cold, you don't want to make cloth, stuff it into the cloth, and make some quilts, so that the people will not be frozen. ”
"You're a good officer."
"This is the duty of the ministers, and the people regard food and clothing as their ......"
"It's done well," Li Wei praised again, it should be said that the parents are not evil to the people, and the officials below are greedy for ink, gray industries, and injustice, but on the whole, it is not obvious. It's not too bad. This is not only the case in Yizhou, but also in many state capitals.
When he came to the pig barn again, it was Li Wei himself, the smell was terrible, he looked at these pigs, Li Wei said again: "This is good, the people can eat meat a few times a year, which is also a good thing." ”
"Yes," Seeing that Li Wei didn't even cover his nose, all the officials respected. Anyway, he has a high opinion of Li Wei in his heart, and only such a benevolent prince will work hard to go to the barren land of the southern wilderness in person to love the people.
The experience is different, the thinking is different, and if you are the original prince, you will definitely not stand here. However, it was not for scruples, so that Li Wei rolled up his trousers and fed the pigs by himself, and it would not be dirty. Until he entered the city as an adult, he has been living like this. The character is like this, and he will not forget his roots.
Yizhou Thorn Shi said cautiously: "There are already chickens and eggs, and the ministers have given them to some lonely old people." ”
"That's how it should ......"
Di Renjie and Zhu Jing glanced at each other, and then nodded knowingly.
After looking at it, they began to enter the city, and countless people at the gate of the city greeted each other. The Tang Dynasty emphasized martial arts and light literature, and a "Wen Emperor" may not be popular, so once Li Zhi dies of illness, it is unlikely that all ethnic groups will come to hang him, beat his chest and call the sky Khan.
Not long after the war on the front line ended, the news was not developed, but because it was the prince's personal expedition, it spread quickly and ...... Quite a ridiculous statement. It's three wars, but it's fantastic and magical. Li Wei killed a Tibetan cavalryman with an arrow, and he was lucky. The folk saying is that a general in Tubo is extremely brave, and he is about to lead the army into the Tang Dynasty military camp, the Tang army is in danger, and the prince yells that it is not good, and he takes an eight-stone bow and shoots it with an arrow. Seeing that the general was dead, the Tubo people were depressed.
The fact is that there is no need for an eight-stone bow, and Li Weidu is dissatisfied with the four-stone bow.
There are more than three battles, it can only be said that there are two battles, the battle of Changcaoling is not counted, there are only two thousand rabble, it is a chess piece that makes the Wulu clan win the trust of the Tang army, and the battle between Qiulongdu and Yaozhou is the real battle. Later, when Xue Rengui pacified the various departments with Heiya Changzhi and Liang Jishou, there were also some small battles, none of which could be counted.
But the people liked it.
There is also a red bird appeared, and the prince is benevolent, very caring for the people, so God sent down the Jiangdong plow, but now it is not called the Jiangdong plow, the official version is called Tian Lei, and the folk saying is called the prince Lei. Therefore, when I heard that the prince had returned, the alleys were empty, and the roads on both sides were crowded black, and then they watched Li Wei riding on a horse together, with a gentle expression, and from time to time cast a few sympathetic glances at those ragged people, and they were even more respectful. Suddenly, I don't know who led the way, and a voice came out: "Long live the prince." As tens of thousands of people chanted in unison.
Li Wei fled, and said in his heart, everyone, don't shout, it was a good thing, pacifying the southwest, this is the face of the royal family, and my father should be happy. After all, it represents the Li family, and this shout can be shouted into a bad thing.
Di Renjie's eyes were rolling, and it was only at this time that the prince really wanted the people. Although the emperor will not be very happy, the people's will will to a certain point, and it is also strength. How to choose between the importance of this...... It's just calculating.
It's not easy to calculate.
After entering the city, Yizhou Thorn Shi said again: "Your Highness, this year's imperial court has been in good weather, not only His Royal Highness has a big victory in the southwest, but also a small victory." ”
"Tell me," Li Wei said. But in my heart, I am thinking about it, *** is also difficult to entangle, how can I fight every year. Without knowing anything, without growing wise, I was leading the troops, and I knew how terrible the war was, not only would people die, but also how much financial resources were wasted.
The Yizhou Thorn General retold the news he had read in the newspaper. After the spring, there was another rebellion, and Li Jinxing, the general of the imperial court, led the army to cross the Yalu River to destroy the rebels. At the Gulu River, a tributary of the Han River that originates from Mt. Paektu to the Han River, the rebels were defeated, thousands of people were captured, and the rest fled to Silla.
Li Wei frowned. Li Jinxing knew that the son of Tudiji, a large tribal chieftain of the Ya people, was brave and powerful, and was a member of the imperial court in the north. I was just thinking about ***, *** The territory of China was still part of China during the Western Jin Dynasty, and later after the Wuhu Rebellion, China got out of control and began to grow stronger, and it has been encroached on to Liaodong. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, because of China's great chaos again, it once encroached on the Liao River, including Changchun and Shenyang, which were all encroached upon. Later, the imperial court put down the rebellion, and all these areas were recovered. There are not many Han people west of the Yalu River now, but it is considered to be peaceful, but it is only east of the country, and there has been no peace, and there are rebellions every year. has the support of Silla, in fact, the attitude of the imperial court has always made him not very clear. Or simply throw it away. Just as he came to surrender in the southwest, where he could actually control more areas, Li Wei still gave up in the face of the huge temptation to open up the territory.
It's not that I don't want to, it's not time yet. It is not possession, after possession, it has to be kept, and it is worth keeping it or not.
This is a practice, and there is another way, to spend some manpower and material resources to simply destroy Silla. Strictly speaking, many of the people in this area are descendants of Yan and Huang. Of course, Li Wei will not treat them as compatriots, even if there are some blood relations, they are also a group of people who have forgotten their ancestors. I have to admire their resilience. With Silla and secretly supporting, there will be no peace.
The imperial court acquiesced in the existence of Silla, but was unwilling to give up the territory east of the Aplu River, so it fought every year.
Even Li Wei doubted whether this was a tactic of the Silla people, and he was tired of fighting, and the imperial court was not interested, so he had to give up in the end. Once you give up, it is just time for Silla to encroach and grow.
Of course, this was a small battle, at least not comparable to this imperial victory in the southwest. The reason why Yizhou Thorn Shi was told was an incident that happened later. Li Jinxing sent troops, and the *** people came up with a poisonous plan to seduce more than 10,000 soldiers of the Yan people to attack Li Jinxing's important base in the city of Nu. They are all the Yan people, but the Yan people, like Nanzhao, are not a tribe, some are loyal to the Tang Dynasty, some are hostile to the Tang Dynasty, and some are loyal and sometimes rebellious, which is very complicated.
Once the city of Vanu was lost, Li Jinxing was cut off by the Tatar people. But at this time, there was a feat, there were less than 1,000 defenders in the city, and there was one person, Li Jinxing's wife Liu, in the face of more than ten times the enemy, did not hurry, led his soldiers to stick to the city, repelled the enemy's attacks many times, and saw that after a long time of fruitless work, many soldiers were killed and retreated. is just a woman, after flying to the imperial court, the imperial court issued a decree to praise her merits and was named Mrs. Yanguo. Because not long after the war, this newspaper also arrived in Yizhou.
Li Wei and Pei Xingjian glanced at each other. Although it is a false seal, the women's reward is the same as the man's reward, with the country as the seal, and only important relatives or clans, such as Wu Zetian's mother Mrs. Rongguo, Helan Minzhi's sister Mrs. Wei Guo, even important ministers such as Liu Renliang dare not think of it.
Not easy.
The reward is excessive.
But his father is the emperor Laozi, even if he is the wife of the ten countries, he does not dare to object.
I came all the way and was a little tired, so I took a break in Yizhou. In the evening, Yao Yuanchong walked in. He was also considered meritorious in this industry, and once shot and killed three rebels in the First Battle of Yaozhou. Of course, it's just a palm, and the credit is very small, and I don't expect this fame, and I still think about scientific research. Get on the right track.
Li Wei patted the bed and said, "Sit." ”
"Your Highness, no, the minister is here to report something, and two people have asked to see him." Saying that, Yao Yuanchong had a strange look on his face. (To be continued.)
