Chapter 472: It's All Hard (I)

Everyone followed Lu Zhe into the inner hall, and the expressions on their faces were not so good, and they could even be said to be a little worried.

Stand firm, think it's time to show that it's time for your own people to come up with something good to build, but jumping up and down are all contrary to the national policy.

Before learning about the relevant policies, it seemed too impatient to come out and jump up and down, no wonder Lu Zhe would walk away. In the case of a bad-tempered monarch, it is probably not as simple as brushing his sleeves away.

Kuaitong and the others, who entered the inner hall with their heels, did not find the figure of their master when they walked through the long corridor to the inner hall, and they were puzzled when they came to tell each other, it turned out that Lu Zhe felt that the smell of lacquer was too strong when he came here, so he changed to the garden outside.

"Smell of lacquer?" Kuaitong sniffed hard to smell a little bit, and asked Mengsan: "Who is there around the Lord?" ”

In ancient times, the lacquer was basically similar to cinnabar and other natural substances, but it was not the paint reflected by the modern chemical industry, and there was no so-called auxiliary items for rapid deodorization, and the newly built palace would retain the flavor for at least one to two years after waxing and lacquering. However, the lacquer bar in ancient times, in fact, did not smell so bad, and the ancients only did not enter it in the first month according to the custom, and they didn't care about the slight smell of lacquer in the back.

Meng San raised his eyebrows, he looked at Kuaitong suspiciously, and couldn't laugh: "This is not what you should ask, right?" ”

Kuaitong seemed to be stunned for a moment, shook his head and muttered: "Well, yes, who is beside the Lord, I really shouldn't ask." But after a little thought, who else can there be besides the female dependents around the Lord now? ”

In order to give the pregnant woman a place to relax and relax, Lu Zhe immediately arranged for someone to find a florist for planning, and it took nearly two months to build a garden covering an area of about five acres in the southeast of Miyagi.

In fact, the garden of a Miyagi should not be so small, including meadows, flowers, lakes, necessary stone paths, pavilions, attics for resting, and so on. At least 10 hectares of land should be occupied. If it is according to the royal forest garden norms of the Han Dynasty, the forest garden covers an area of at least 100 miles, and the five-acre garden is honestly not available in the world, but it can only be done temporarily, after all, the palace city of Nanling has not been completely built until now, but it has only completed two-tenths.

The group was led by Meng San and Jia Shi, and when they came to the garden in the southeast position, they saw from a distance that Lu Zhe was indeed with Zhao Wan, Lu Pheasant, Wei Wen, and Yixiu by the pavilion. But he didn't know what the girls were talking about, Lu Zhe made a look of listening, and there was a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Counting it, Lu Pheasant and Wei Wen have been pregnant for nearly four months. By the time the pregnant woman reaches the fourth month of pregnancy, her abdomen has been contoured, and when the two women are talking or listening, they always stroke their lower abdomen with their hands.

Lu Zhe, who heard the footsteps, turned his head to look, and saw Kuai Tong, Xiao He, Gongwei, Ji Bu, and Luo Shao coming, he said something to the girls, and then all the girls stood up under the service of the maids.

The generals who returned to Nanling all left their deputies, but they probably couldn't stay in Nanling for long, so they only waited for Sima Xin, who had intermittently slowed down the attack, to return to Nanling, and Lu Zhe rewarded the military generals who had made meritorious contributions in the war. Then they had to go back to the front again.

"Go back, I'll go back in the evening." Lu Zhe smiled at the saluting women, and gave Zhao Wan a special look.

After the girls raised their feet and left, Liangwen Sanwu, who had been waiting for a little in the distance, came over.

They entered the pavilion and saluted Lu Zhe. Then he raised his hand and sat down under Lu Zhe's false request.

"Today's events have given me a wake-up call," Lu Zhe stopped when he saw that a maid was removing the snacks and other things just now, waiting for the long case to be cleaned up and replaced with new tea, snacks, and fruits, picking up an orange and peeling it while saying: "The etiquette formulation and the duties of the ministers should be refined and determined as soon as possible." ”

It's annoying that those guys are jumping up and down. There is a clear taste of disgust. But how can a force be so pure?

When the power is small, there are not many people, and you can always get the position you want. After the power became larger, the number of personnel increased, but there were still only a few positions. If someone is in a hurry to ascend to the throne, he wants to show Xiàn, how can he enter the eyes of the king if he does not show Xiàn.

"It's the table xiàn, but it's not the table xiàn." Lu Zhe was very repulsive to the kind of guy who didn't know how to pretend to understand: "There is a guy who has stopped using swords against the Chu State, is he naïve or confused!" He thought for a moment and didn't remember the guy's name, "Who is it?" ”

Xiao He and Kuai Tong looked at each other for a while, they knew who that person was, but they hesitated to say it.

Xiao He is the ruling party, Kuai Tong is the chief military advisor, how can he be regarded as the first and second person among the civil ministers, some words are inappropriate once they pass through their mouths, especially this kind of person who annoys the monarch, if he names him, wouldn't it be the act of saying bad things about people behind his back, which is really inconsistent with his identity.

There is no one among the generals who knows who the guy who proposed to build yì no longer use swords against the Chu State is, but the military generals, the storage zài is used to fight, and the last thing I want to hear is that anyone who proposes that there should be no war, Ji Bu, as the commander of the Eastern Army, denies the meaning of fighting against Chu, so he is the commander of the army and can't bear it.

"That guy should be allowed to go to Lujiang and let him see what Lujiang has become like by the Chu army!" Ji Bu is used to being unscrupulous, and it is not at all a military general who should interfere with who to go, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with this: "It's better to fill the army and become a civil servant or something, so that he can see the barbaric Cheng of the Chu army." ”

"Ahem!" The lieutenant coughed for a while, and when he covered his mouth, he glared at Ji Bu too deliberately.

Ji Bu was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and laughed a few times: "This ......", he cautiously looked at Lu Zhe's expression, and when he saw that he was not angry, he explained: "The affairs of the army should be decided by the Lord, not that cats and dogs have the right to speak." Do you say, Lord? ”

Lu Zhe's attention to the army is unprecedented, and his control over the army has never been relaxed. He really doesn't like Wenchen pointing fingers at the army, and of course he doesn't allow military generals to have the right to make their own decisions, but there is no need to say this kind of topic, everyone should know it.

"What is the situation in Minnan County and Nanhai County?" Lu Zhe motioned to Luo Shao first and said, Ji Bu, a guy who has no sense of proportion, should cool down.

Luo Shao immediately put down the pottery cup with tea in his hand, and bowed his hand: "The casualties of Baiyue in the battle of Changsha County are extremely heavy, and there are almost no young and strong Baiyue in the South China Sea. At present, our army has garrisoned various major roads according to the needs of the terrain, and has successively built barracks at a distance of ten miles that can enable 500 sergeants to monitor the local area. ”

Yes, Baiyue's damned young men died in Changsha County, Lu Zhe is now sending troops to attack the Minyue region and the South Vietnam region is basically not met with decent resistance, what is difficult for them during the occupation is not to fight with Baiyue, how can those old and weak women and children Baiyue people have the ability to resist the invasion of Lu Zhe's army, the most difficult thing is that the march needs to constantly build bridges and open roads.

"Roads should be paid attention to, the most important thing in the early stage is that the roads should be smooth, the roads that have been built can not be abandoned, and the roads should be continuously widened, with these roads is the guarantee that they can be occupied, otherwise even if they are occupied for a time, they will be lost in the future." Lü Zhe also talked about the importance of roads, especially mentioning that after the spring ploughing, people should be recruited from each county, and the roads opened by the marching army should be renovated under the protection of the army, so that the roads opened by these troops can be used as the lifeblood of the two counties.

Xiao He almost jumped up, he pressed and waited for Lu Zhe to finish speaking, and was embarrassed: "Jiujiang County, Lujiang County, and Changsha County have all experienced war, and they still need time to recover from their trauma. This means that there are too many places that need manpower now, and building roads is never an easy job: "The construction of the Nanling Tomb and the construction of the main palace city require a lot of labor. ”

How many people are there under Lu Zhe's rule? Even if you count the Qianshou who have traveled south from the north in the past few months, there is definitely not a population of more than five million. The population of the eight counties is less than 5 million, and if it is divided into each county, one county is only 5 or 600,000, while the southern county, as an administrative county (i.e., the nature of the direct subordinate), has a population of nearly 2.5 million, but the population distribution of the remaining counties is too uneven.

In addition to the newly occupied Minnan County and Nanhai County, Jiujiang County and Lujiang County are okay to breathe a sigh of relief, Cangwu County and Changsha County are really vast and sparsely populated. Jiujiang County is more than 400,000, Lujiang County is 480,000, and Cangwu County is only a pitiful less than 300,000, that is, the population of Hengshan County is more than 1 million, and the population of Changsha County is only 220,000 after the ravages of Baiyue.

There is a territory the size of the Central Plains, with a population of only 5 million, isn't it vast and sparsely populated? A few uninhabited places have become a haven for wild beasts, so much so that it is difficult to find a resting place when a caravan passes by.

Kuaitong's face suddenly turned a little pale, he felt that Lu Zhe's heart was too anxious and anxious, although it was not difficult for Southern Baiyue to lose more than half of the population, but it was never so easy to occupy a new piece of land, and the insufficient population could not get the resources of the occupied land. He couldn't help asking, "Lord, ...... you When would you like to participate in the battle for the deer in the north? ”

Well??? Lu Zhe felt that Kuaitong asked very strangely, hadn't they already discussed? In the past three years, it has stabilized the south, and there has been no discussion of a decision to send troops to the north, and if anything, it is only a plan to prevent it.

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Kuaitong's face turned ruddy: "Three years can maximize the digestion of the newly occupied territory, and our private policies have been attracting people to move over. ”

Even if there are only forty or fifty thousand in a month or two, they can attract hundreds of thousands a year, as long as Lu Zhe can calm down and do things less eagerly, they are now in a favorable stage. (To be continued......)
