Liu Hong's chips are actually not as simple as more than a dozen county seats, you must know that the south of the autonomous region, the central region of Yangzhou is almost a primitive wilderness, and there are almost no county towns here. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning, the autonomous region had She County and Damo County in the front, so it was not good to continue to expand southward, and now these two counties are under the rule of the autonomous region, so Li Yu wants to expand southward, but I am afraid that no one can resist it.

He could even build several roads to the central region, and then build several cities there. As long as these cities only border the autonomous region, then this area can develop into the rear of the autonomous region.

Surrounded by mountains and forests, the mountain roads are rugged and difficult to walk, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter them. If Li Yu wants to hide 100,000 soldiers inside, I'm afraid that people outside may not be able to know.

The key is that there are millions of mountain people here, not only a large number of refugees who have fled here from all over the world, but even some Shengfan tribes that may not be discovered, which adds up to a large number of people.

Liu Hong is equivalent to putting such a large area under the rule of the autonomous region. Li Yu's scope of governance is not only as simple as doubling, but also more than three to four times!

With such a large area, in exchange for the support of going north if necessary, this deal is too cost-effective. Li Yu even thought about finding a way to get Liu Wei to Ba County when the time came, and at the same time leave Liu Xie behind, so that Dong Zhuo and the princes could make trouble by themselves.

changed to an emperor, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to get Liu Hong's kind of handwriting. It is also thanks to the fact that Liu Hong himself is not a willing and calm existence, otherwise he may be able to spend half his life in peace, and then give the Zen position to someone under the coercion of the ministers.

Maybe as the emperor of the Han Dynasty and a descendant of the Liu family, he can't be allowed to compromise, right? It's just that at this stage, what kind of chips can he come up with to win over others? In particular, Li Yu has a territory, and there are 20,000 troops outside Luoyang City!

Liu Hong even believed that if he found a way to kill him. Regardless of whether the family is unhappy with Li Yu or not, not to mention that it is possible to instigate that group of troops to attack Luoyang. It will also create public opinion that the faint monarch is good at killing heroes, and even take advantage of this to gradually expand the volunteer army into King Qin, until he is forced to abdicate.

Perhaps, this is a delusion of victimization. However, looking at the last emperors of the Han Dynasty, which one did not die unexpectedly? Even if you don't, you have to force out the delusion of being killed!

If you want to win over, the official position is meaningless, those family gate valves have the name of the three princes on their heads, but in fact, they still do what they should do, but they are afraid that even if they are crowned kings, they will disdain it.

To put it mildly, the Western Han Dynasty originally used the means of using Xungui to deal with the family, but since Liu Che's generation, Xungui has been almost wiped out. Without the containment of the nobles, the family flourished. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the policy of the Western Han Dynasty was continued, so that the nobles could not be reused at all, and the gate valve of the old family was further expanded.

Now I think of the means of using the nobles to contain the gate valve, where can so many nobles be canonized? Even if it is sealed, where do they have so much strength to defend the Han Chamber? Not to mention, there are some things that only need to be moved out of the 'ancestral system', and anything can be solved! In all dynasties, the king wanted to reform, and the most courtiers moved out, wasn't it the 'ancestral system'?

They deserve to respect Confucius, respecting Confucius means benevolence, righteousness and morality, and the key is to maintain filial piety. If the king wants to be a benevolent and filial king, the ancestral system formulated by the ancestors is not easy to change casually, but the result is a cocoon and self-restraint.

Since the official position is useless, of course Liu Hong can only really make some blood......

Anyway, what is sent out is a wild land, and the key is that at least the autonomous region is still under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty. The year before that, the first tax was sent to the imperial court, and it is said that the income in one year was higher than in three years in the rich land of the Central Plains.

I remember that at that time, he dismissed more than ten county commanders from official positions and installed people from the imperial party on the throne. The key is that if there is no tax money from the autonomous region in the past two years, I am afraid that there will be no money for the renovation of the palace last year.

That's almost the end of the conversation, and the things that should be explained have been explained. However, Liu Hong still valued Li Yu, so he left him for dinner. He asked about his son Li Hao again, and asked about the things in the autonomous region.

Li Yu can also say it, and if he can't say it, he will find a way to fool the past. Speaking of why these soldiers are so elite, Li Yu said that the soldiers are well treated and have a high pension, and the key is to insist on practicing every day.

Liu Hong immediately said: "Why don't Aiqing leave one or two people behind and help me train the army?" ”

At first, Li Yu thought that the other party's uncle had dug up one or two of him, but fortunately, he was only going to train the army, so he was relieved. Immediately, I thought that after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Hong did establish the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden. But now it seems that he has begun to plan to build this army.

In the final analysis, Liu Hong needs an army that can really be controlled. Even if many of these troops have to be assigned to the children of those family lords, as long as they can control a few of them, they can help him a lot at critical moments.

"As long as Your Majesty can provide enough resources, then the minister can leave two people to help Your Majesty train the troops!" Li Yu thought about it and replied.

"That's not a problem!" Liu Hong nodded, still very satisfied with Li Yu's attitude.

At the same time, in the mansion of Yang Valve, Yang Lang, who was in a state of rest today, came back directly from the main gate. At first, the porter wouldn't let him in, but he barely came here.

During this time, there were many soldiers who were looking for connections, and there were many military attachés earlier who planned to follow the path of Taiwei Yang Ci, but they were all blown out. Yang Lang came to the door, and naturally he was also regarded by them as a military attache who came to the door.

Who knew that the other party came to the door, but he shouted to them: "Inform the clan uncle, and say that Hongnong Yang Lang wants to see!" ”

Immediately, the concierge was frightened, you must know that Yang Ci once said that if someone who claimed to be Yang Lang came over, then let him go. Now that Yang Lang is screaming like that, how dare they slack off, let alone the clan uncle, who has already pointed out the relationship between him and Yang Ci.

The porter immediately reported that Yang Ci actually went out to greet him in person when he heard this, and even the porter couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this. Now Yang Ci is already the imperial lieutenant of the dynasty, ranking as the third duke, and he rarely comes out to greet him in person if he is not a powerful person in the dynasty. Not to mention that this young man is obviously a descendant, how can he move his old man to come out to greet him in person?

I only saw that the two uncles and nephews greeted each other with smiling faces, and then politely entered the courtyard. Although there are people who talk and laugh, but after following Yang Ci for so many years, the porter only feels that the smiles on the faces of the two of them are completely social-style smiles, without any feelings, which is really strange!

"Steelmaking technology? I didn't expect that Jingtao could even get this kind of technology? And this, it's actually a water-powered mill? After Yang Lang and Yang Ci entered the study, he took out a lot of technical information.

These are all materials that have been eliminated in the autonomous region, and with Li Yu's consent, Yang Lang brought them out. But for this era, many technologies are still relatively advanced.

"How much technology is needed, but I don't know how my uncle plans to deal with it in the future?" Yang Lang asked suddenly.

"What does this mean?" Yang Ci was pretending to be confused at the moment.

"This time he went north, Li Yu has already promoted high-yield crops in the Central Plains. Now Yuzhou, Nanyang and Sili are only afraid that a large number of high-yield crops will soon be seeded, and the blockade of these three crops by the family gate valve is only afraid that it has failed.

Food prices will fall substantially, and traditional grain traders will no longer be able to make money. The people, even those tenants, are afraid that there will be more money to spare.

When the time comes, they will also need to build a new house for themselves, which will require masonry and cement; They need furniture, so they need wood and carpenters; Even if they want enlightenment, the "Enlightenment Series" launched by the autonomous region will have a market, and it will even drive the paper market and the engraving printing market.

The emergence of high-yielding crops will also lead to the prosperity of the mill industry and the grain processing industry. Now, taking advantage of these clues, if Yang comes forward, he can quickly seize the market, and even monopolize the market in a certain industry. If you continue to operate in the traditional grain industry, I am afraid that the money you will pay to the clansmen in the future will not be enough! Yang Lang persuaded.

No family can do without money, and without money, it will lose the hearts and minds of a large number of clansmen. The purpose of the unity of the clan is to cultivate a few elite clansmen through the concentration of resources. When these clansmen came out, they fed back to the clansmen through official channels.

But essentially, it's about making more money! If you don't have money, you can't give the clansmen a monthly example, and if you can't give a monthly example, the clansmen may have to be greedy for a living. Once it is exposed, not to mention being dismissed, it will also hit the reputation of the family.

The children of the real family do not have to be corrupt, the main thing is that the family is their biggest backing. If the family is unable to provide sufficient financial resources, there is not a small amount of money needed for daily social communication. Without connections, the family has lost a large number of important allies, making it easy to be sniped by others.

In the past, the output of farmland was insufficient, and grain could be sold for a large price, and even became a source of income for officials. In addition, in recent years, natural and man-made disasters have continued, resulting in further increases in food prices, which makes the life of the family very good.

However, if high-yielding crops run rampant, the price of food will inevitably plummet. When the time comes, these big families will still be able to maintain such a glorious life? If nothing else, do they still have the money to recruit so many private soldiers?!

Without private soldiers, in the coming turbulent era, I am afraid that more families will be annihilated in history.

What Yang Lang said is to let Yang Ci take advantage of this situation before it appears, so that Yang Valve will gradually change to the commercial aspect, and he can no longer rely on land for blood supply, at least not as the main blood supply.

"Then in the opinion of the virtuous nephew, what industry is more appropriate?" Yang Ci was silent for a while, but asked with a smile.

At this moment, he was indeed convinced. As the contemporary head of the Yang family, he must make a decision...... (To be continued.) )
