The beginning of summer in April.

Farmers planting rice can be seen everywhere in the Central Plains, but such scenes rarely occur in Hexi County. Every household makes a living by raising horses, cattle, and yang, and even if a small number of people plant rice, the harvest is not good in autumn.

On this day, Wang Xu left Wangcheng with Zhang Meng and 3,000 Yulin Army, and there was only one civil official accompanying him, Han Shushu, because his work had been done, and he was idle every day.

The order to accept the displaced people Wang Xu had been issued two days ago, and it is estimated that it is now being implemented, but in order not to be remote, Wang Xu decided to go and see it in person.

This time to the Yangtze River, Wang Xu has another important thing, that is, to see the situation of the people's farming, this matter must be listed as a top priority, there is no room for the slightest restraint, whether there will be food to eat in a few months, but it all depends on this.

.................

Wang Xu arrived at Anlan City five days later with 3,000 Yulin troops, and at this time he could already see the homeless people with their families here, many of whom were born and raised in Guxi County.

As soon as they saw Wang Xu's Yulin Army running, they all automatically dispersed to both sides and knelt down.

In the past, Wang Xu pretended to be a ghost on the high platform of Guxi County, and many people knew Wang Xu, and when they saw it at this time, they all shouted loudly. Although the Yulin Army maintained order, it was still very chaotic, and an endless refugee camp was set up outside the city of Anlan.

"King Wen, don't leave us behind..."

"Meet King Wen..."

...........

Crying, noisy, and shouting sounded together, Wang Xu was full of emotion, he didn't expect that he had such a big influence, just a small tax reduction and exemption policy can make these people never give up.

At this moment, Wang Xu secretly swore in his heart. This time, Hexi County can no longer be lost, and the people must be given a place to live and work in peace and contentment, and the land of Hexi County will be surnamed Wang in the future! If the court wants to get involved, then come!

After walking through the crowd of people for a while, Wang Xu led the Yulin army towards Anlan City, and Zhao Long learned that Wang Xu was here. I've been waiting for you for a long time.

"King Wen, all the displaced people have gone ashore and are now stationed outside the city." Zhao Long said while taking Wang Xu to the mansion.

Wang Xu nodded: "Can you count the number of people?" ”

Zhao Long said: "In the statistics, the main thing is to distinguish the displaced people and the original residents of Hexi County, which is a bit troublesome, and it will take some time to wait for the thorough statistics to come out." ”

When he came to the mansion and sat down, Wang Xu said: "After the statistics are counted." There will be household and county officials who will come here to claim it in batches, and you just need to maintain it. ”

"Also, strictly prevent the spies of the imperial court from getting involved, once you find a suspicious person, you must arrest him and hand him over to the criminal department for interrogation!"

"No." Zhao Long arched his hand.

..........

The two continued to talk about the displaced people for a while, and Wang Xu changed his words and said, "How is the training of the navy?" ”

Zhao Long smiled and said, "King Wen." The military department just sent me a sand table map, which is very useful. King Wen, please come with me, and you will know at a glance. ”

Wang Xu smiled and followed Zhao Long to a house in the back, which had become Zhao Long's war room at the moment, with maps, sand tables and everything.

Walking here, Zhao Long pointed to the sand table in the middle and said, "Lord, please take a look." The entire Yangtze River and the cities along the river are in this sand table, and there is also the deployment of our naval army. ”

As soon as Zhao Long finished speaking, Wang Xu looked at it carefully, and it was indeed marked very clearly, the upper reaches of the Yangtze River started from the border of Hexi County and Guxi County. It goes down through Beijun, then goes around to Bao'an County and Dongjun, and then flows into the sea outside Dongjun, and the whole sand table is very atmospheric.

"What is this?" Wang Xu suddenly pointed to the rows of small boat passages in the middle of the Yangtze River.

Zhao Long said: "King Yuwen, this is the three lines of defense set up by his subordinates in order to prevent the displaced people from entering Hexi County, each line of defense uses two hundred small warships and three medium-sized warships, the ships are connected with iron locks, and the bronze poles are directly inserted into the bottom of the river to fix them, so that a wall of more than one zhang high can be formed on the Yangtze River. ”

Zhao Long took great pains to get these three lines of defense, I don't know how many ships he received, but fortunately, there was a little silver in Anlan City, otherwise he would not be able to complete this design in such a short time.

This design can not only prevent displaced people, but also effectively check the passing merchant ships; In the event of a war, these three lines of defense can become a barrier to prevent the enemy from entering Hexi County, which is really a few in one fell swoop.

It's just such a good design, but Wang Xu is a little dissatisfied, because he remembered the battle of Chibi in history, what if the enemy attacks with fire? The warship even the warship did not even have a chance to run, and in this way Cao Cao's 800,000 army was burned by Zhou Yu in history.

"Since you can fix the ship on the river, let's build a few more lookouts, and set up beacons every mile, so that if the enemy attacks, the soldiers will light the beacons."

Zhao Long arched his hand and said, "Obey." In fact, he had this idea for a long time, but he had been preventing displaced people during this time, so he didn't have time to get it.

If there is a beacon tower, as soon as the imperial army of Guxi County boards the ship, within two hours, you will know here, and you can react faster, so that you will not be like the previous Hexi County navy, and you don't know if you have hit the old nest.

Wang Xu smiled: "In general, this sand table is well made, and the naval army is also very rigorous, I am very satisfied." ”

"Work hard, if you have any requirements, this king should be satisfied."

Zhao Long solemnly made a gesture, and said with a solemn expression: "King Wen, please rest assured, with me Zhao Long stationed here, the imperial court soldiers and horses don't want to cross the Yangtze River, but... We don't have much food and grass in Anlan City, can we... Seeing Wang Xu's face dropped, Zhao Long pursed his mouth and forcibly held back the words behind him.

I want more food and grass,!

Wang Xu took a deep breath: "After I return to Wangcheng, I will ask the household department to allocate food for you." ”

"Thank you, King Wen." Zhao Long was happy.

After studying the sand table for a while, Wang Xu rested in Anlan City that night.

................

Three days later, the officials of the household department and the county magistrates of each county arrived here, and after statistics, there were 100,000 original residents of Guxi County, 200,000 displaced people, and almost all of these 200,000 people were displaced people who built the wall in Guxi County.

Therefore, these 200,000 people are almost all old and weak, women and children; In this way, it is very important to run nursing homes and child-friendly classes, although the county orders of each county are extremely reluctant, but with the orders of King Wen, they can only respect.

Those who come early can also receive some young and vigorous ones, and those who come late are all old people and children.

Five days later, all the displaced people outside Anlan City were settled, and all the displaced people were taken away and sent to each county, and more than 4,000 people were issued to each county order.

As for the 100,000 original residents of Guxi County, they had money on them, so Wen Qing resettled them according to the situation of each county, and the counties with smaller populations were divided into more, and on the contrary, a small number of residents were arranged to move in.

However, due to Wang Xu's intervention, Wen Qing resettled more people along the river, because Wang Xu wanted to engage in agriculture and grow rice here, and these people were laborers. (To be continued.) )
