"The news from the imperial court, there is also a copy sent to me, according to the reaction of the ministers in the imperial court, we still have a chance to delay for a while, take advantage of this opportunity, hurry up and shrink the troops, Wendeng needs to give up temporarily, it is completely okay to control all of Qingzhou and most of Laizhou in his hands!"

"But virtuous nephew, you have to be prepared, when the imperial army really arrives, our life will be very difficult, and we may even lose the Qingzhou capital city, so I suggest that you work hard to develop the five counties in the south of Qingzhou and use this place as your base camp. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

After the old man finished speaking, Liu Zheng nodded deeply, Yimeng old area, where the old devils drove tanks and held crooked handles.

The ancient Lanling, Langxi, and now Linyi, is indeed a place where talents come out, and it is indeed a place suitable for being a base, but this place has been completely ignored by the Ming Dynasty.

The reason for such a situation is still because of the inconvenience of transportation, and it is precisely for this reason that if the time comes, it is really defeated by the imperial army, and it is just right to save itself in such a closed place, and pinch the three passes of Qingshi Pass, Muling Pass, and Bauhinia Pass, and it will be in vain for the court to send many soldiers.

However, Liu Zheng didn't want to do this, because he was too aggrieved, and the foundation that he had finally laid was not Liu Zheng's doing.

After muttering for a long time, Liu Zheng suddenly said, "Old man, what if we fight out?" ”

"Hit out?" Wei Boyuan was slightly stunned, then looked at Liu Zheng in surprise and said, "You want to completely abandon this place?" ”

Liu Zheng shook his head and said: "No, no, how can I abandon the foundation that I have worked so hard to lay, I mean, we will fight out, expand outward, expand rapidly!" ”

Wei Boyuan quickly shook his head and said: "No, even if you occupy the whole of Shandong, so what, you don't have more than 50,000 soldiers, even if you expand your recruitment to 100,000, it's just a rabble!" The imperial army will boast as soon as it rushes! If you want to win the imperial court, you need a stable word, and if the army is stable and the people are stable, the foundation is stable! ”

Liu Zheng nodded deeply, as the old man said, the military heart and the people's heart are the foundation, why did he not hesitate to completely offend the gentry class, not only because of the silver, but also because he was able to get the hearts of the wider people.

"50,000 soldiers, still less, old man, I want to expand the army again!"

Liu Zheng thought that the old man would agree, but he didn't expect the old man to shake his head and said: "Virtuous nephew, you have trained these 50,000 soldiers into an elite soldier that can be used by the army, which is enough to resist the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who come to the imperial court to suppress it. ”

Liu Zheng nodded again, he also understood this truth, but he didn't know the bottom of his heart, and he felt that only when there were more soldiers did he feel safe.

He smiled self-deprecatingly: "Old man, I understand what to do, you take care of your injuries, the follow-up news is coming, I will come to you to discuss!" ”

Liu Zheng took the Jiang family father and son away, and returned to the camp of the original left guard battalion, Liu Zheng first arranged a temporary residence for the two, and then began to sit in the huge tent and ponder.

Liu Zheng has never changed the tent into a house, in this kind of military tent, he can always remind himself of the crisis he is facing and the position he is in.

I don't know how long it took, Liu Zheng slowly opened his eyes from his contemplation, walked to the huge sand table, and checked the small flags one by one on several cities, and the look in his eyes was constantly changing.

After another period of time, Liu Zheng sat back next to the handsome case and began to write hard, recording some thoughts in his heart and sorting out a plan.

Today's main industry in Qingzhou is still his wine industry, there is nothing else for sale, and the wine industry has not been carried out much, in order to activate the local economy, Liu Zheng did not even start to collect commercial taxes, at this time his source of funds is only to grab it.

But there will always be a day when the robbery will be finished, or you can't always take the rich under the knife, right? If we want to develop the economy, there will inevitably be a gap between the rich and the poor, and if we continue to do this, the rich will run out, and the poor will remain poor, and this is an absolutely unacceptable situation.

If you want to develop the economy, you have to diversify, and if you have more goods, you can revitalize an area, so Liu Zheng hit the idea in Zhoucun and Boshan.

Needless to say, Zhoucun is one of the starting points of the Silk Road, and many people in later generations also know Zhoucun baked cakes.

What about Boshan, what is Boshan, many friends may not know such a place, have never heard of it, Boshan has one thing, it is very famous in my great shengbang, that is, glass, Boshan's glaze technology has developed to the extreme in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it can be explained in a very simple sentence, how extreme it is, the glazed objects in the Forbidden City, in addition to imported products, more than eighty percent of others are produced by Boshan.

What is the glaze, many friends think that the glaze is glass, in fact, this is a wrong cognition, the glaze is made of glazed stone and glazed mother, glazed stone is a kind of colored crystal, you can also simply think that glaze is a crystal handicraft.

Many people think that in the Ming Dynasty, China's glaze technology has been lost, this is a big fallacy, whether it is the glaze factory of Beijing, or the glaze workshop of Boshan, the technology has not been lost, and there is a clear record in the Wanli years, when a furnace temple was established in Boshan, sacrificing Nuwa to pray for the blessing of the glaze production, it can be seen that the glaze technology is not lost, but the production of glaze is very difficult, often a glazed product is baked, the time required is calculated by the month.

In ancient times, there were five major vessels, namely gold and silver, jade, glass, ceramics and bronze, among these five vessels, especially the glaze is the most expensive, which can only be used by the royal family.

Why is the decline of today's glaze, because of glass, the emergence of glass has doubled the value of glass, glass firing is simple, and more transparent than glass, many people with bad conscience use glass to act as glass, which has led to the glass artwork from the altar to the folk, so that there is no place to live.

Why did Liu Zheng want to fight Boshan's idea, not for the glass, but for the culprit that caused the plummeting value of the glass, the glass process is very simple, and the composition is also very simple, quartz sand, limestone, feldspar, soda ash and boric acid.

For Liu Zheng, quartz sand, limestone, feldspar, Boshan really don't want too much, you may not know, there are countless karst caves under Boshan, large and widely distributed, there are these three things where there are karst caves, and there are crystals, and the glazed stone used for Boshan's glaze comes from these places!

The most difficult thing to do is nothing more than soda ash and boric acid, but these two things were available in ancient times, boric acid can be made of borax, borax is available in traditional Chinese medicine, and soda ash can be obtained from plant ash and saline-alkali land.

Many people ask where the sulfuric acid comes from, the sulfuric acid comes from Wudang Mountain, and the Taoist people in Wudang are very good at making this, they call sulfuric acid alum oil, and it is sold in major pharmacies across the country.

With raw materials, it is much easier to get it, and it is not too simple to play with glass and glass......

Get the glass out, you can completely revitalize the economy of this generation, hit Boshan, it means to capture Zichuan, after all, Boshan belongs to Zichuan, Zichuan also has good things, what, ceramics, Zichuan's ceramics can not compare to Jingdezhen, that is because Zichuan's ceramic talent is crooked, and the famous ceramic knife in later generations is produced here.

Zhoucun, like Boshan, was a subordinate land, Boshan belonged to Zichuan, and Zhoucun belonged to Zouping at that time.

Among the major defense lines used by Liu Zheng to fight against the imperial court, there were two counties, Zouping and Zichuan, so Dezhou Village and Boshan were just handy.

With the silk of Zhoucun, the glass and glass of Boshan, and the unique high-quality wine in the country, the economy of Qingzhou will be completely revitalized.

If you want to revitalize here, you also need to have a way to spread outward, where is Liu Zheng's road, in Linqing, Linqing was in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was quite rich, not worse than Jiangnan, many friends know that the prototype of the Ximen Daguan was produced in Linqing, and this book was also written based on Linqing.

Liu Zheng laid out in Linqing early, and now the underground forces in Linqing are all Liu Zheng's people, and a large number of green forest heroes arrived in Linqing before Qingzhou, and after Qingzhou was defeated, Liu Zheng sent the fire bodhisattva Liu Kou to Linqing, and now the underground forces are all under Liu Kou's control.

As soon as Liu Zheng thought of Linqing, the face that made his heart automatically appeared in his mind, and he sighed softly, driving the figure out of his mind, now is not the time for children to grow up.

But he never thought that this figure occupied too firmly in his heart, so that Liu Zheng couldn't drive this figure out of his mind no matter how much he hurried.

Annoyed, Liu Zheng got up and came to the outside of the tent, and found that Dongfang was faintly white at this time, and the night passed like this!

After moving his body, Liu Zheng's stomach began to protest, after all, he didn't eat last night, how can he not be hungry after staying up all night?

Called the guards and asked people to prepare some food, and when the canteen heard that Liu Zheng hadn't eaten all night, he began to get busy, and several cooks were busy and made Liu Zheng's breakfast, which was unusually rich.

Although it is not easy to eat too much for breakfast, and it is not easy to eat some greasy things, Liu Zheng can't care so much, first solve the problem of hunger, eat a meal very comfortably, and also use the momentum of eating to drive the shadow out of his mind.

After eating, Liu Zheng ordered someone to invite his uncle Jiang Mingda and his cousin Jiang San'er over, and at the same time called Shen Xing, the commander of the 115th Brigade of the 105th Division, after the 105th Division captured Qingzhou, the 113th Brigade and the 114th Brigade were left in the local garrison, after all, there was no civilian official to take over, not that Liu Zheng did not want to send, but that there was no one to send, and now the northern counties of Qingzhou have changed from the original thirteen-person committee to a three-person committee, so the manpower is not enough, so the five southern counties still implement the military management system.

There is also a very important reason, that is, there are too many bandits around the five southern counties, after all, it is surrounded by mountains, where are you not sending troops, and these bandits are still overturned?

As soon as the three of them came to Liu Zheng's handsome tent, after Liu Zheng introduced each other, he went straight to the topic and lightly clicked a few cities on the sand table.

"Here, here and here, I'll leave it to your 115 Brigade, I know your soldiers are tired, but there is no way, the current situation does not allow us to rest, so I can only send you out again!"
