Chapter 491: People's Power

"Drawing a sword, what a crazy knife technique!"

Lingnan Song Valve Knife Grinding Hall, Song Que put down the work of sharpening the knife, and his face was full of thoughtfulness.

Song Yuhua wrote to his father Song Que in Lingnan about her husband Lei Hu's views on the way of the sword, hoping to help his father better understand the way of the sword.

Song Que attaches great importance to his cheap son-in-law Lei Hu's view of the way of the sword, don't look at him when he is quite reserved in front of Lei Hu, but in his heart he admires the strength of Lei Hu's cheap son-in-law.

At least, he thought that his comprehension of the Dao of the Sword had improved in the past few years, but when he personally rushed to Qiantang City to discuss his daughter's marriage with Lei Hu, he was surprised to find that he still couldn't see through the depth of Lei Hu.

What this means He knew very well in his heart, Lei Hu's strength was even stronger than he imagined!

Therefore, he attaches great importance to and is interested in the words of the cheap son-in-law on martial arts.

Not to mention anything else, Song Que was quite satisfied with the cheap son-in-law's words to summarize his knife way: There is nothing else besides the knife!

At this time, although Song Que's sword path cultivation was quite high, he had not yet summarized his own sword path to such a subtle and accurate point.

It's a pity that in the letter sent back by her daughter Song Yuhua, the cheap son-in-law Lei Hu didn't say too deeply, but just talked about the so-called fierce knife drawing technique.

That's the case, Song Que also felt that the knife drawing technique was quite useful.

They are all extreme sword training methods, and the knife drawing technique is even more crazy than his knife path, which makes Song Que can't help but feel touched, and after thinking about it, he also feels that the knife drawing technique is not without merit.

is a congenital master, in the case of defenselessness, if he is slashed by the knife drawing technique, it is estimated that he will be seriously injured if he does not die, which shows the ferocity of the knife drawing technique.

It's just that this kind of means is by no means easy to practice.

In addition to a good martial arts talent, the most important thing is a tenacious heart, able to sink his temperament for several years or even more than ten years to practice sword drawing.

Of course, once practiced, the method of condensing the spirit and spirit on the knife is also quite fierce and domineering, and ordinary masters of the same level will not be able to take it at all.

It's just that this blind pursuit of the power of swordsmanship is like taking an evil path no matter how you look at it, Song Que can learn from the essence of it, but he doesn't think about practicing it, or looking for children in the clan to cultivate.

It's a pity that his daughter Song Yuhua's strength is too weak, otherwise he can ask his cheap son-in-law Lei Hu to talk more deeply, so that he can have a clear understanding of the future road.

Regarding the strength of his cheap son-in-law Lei Hu, although Song Que didn't say it on the surface, he still recognized it in his heart.

When discussing marriage with him before, Song Que wanted to make an appointment to fight Lei Hu, but after meeting, he lost his mind.

The temperament of the cheap son-in-law Lei Hu is too unique, he can't guess the specific strength at all, and he is not sure in his heart, so he naturally does not propose to fight.

However, just looking at the cheap son-in-law's behavior and behavior, it seems to be ordinary, but in fact, it is in line with some kind of mysterious Taoist rhyme that cannot be explained, and it is obvious that his strength and realm have reached a level that Song Que can't understand.

It's just that Song Que is arrogant, although he was shocked in his heart, he didn't show it, but unfortunately Lei Hu, a cheap son-in-law, was too blind, and he didn't know how to take the initiative to say something about martial arts practice, so that Song Que would not be depressed after returning to Lingnan.

Obviously, with the high realm of his son-in-law Lei Hu, he has reached the level of one law and one hundred laws, although he has not practiced swordsmanship, his understanding of swordsmanship is obviously more thorough than that of a swordsman like Song Que.

Pity......

Putting down my daughter's letter, I was very depressed.

The cheap son-in-law Lei Hu obviously just tasted it, making him feel itchy in his heart, so he couldn't wait to rush to the cheap son-in-law immediately, grabbed his collar and roared: Pour out all the goods in your stomach!

……

Lei Hu didn't know at all, and the cheap old man Song Que had a grudge in his heart.

It's also that Song Que is too arrogant, if he takes the initiative to ask, Lei Hu will not hide his secrets, and it is nothing to talk about the sword realm in his understanding.

However, since Song Que is reserved, Lei Hu has no obligation to take the initiative to tell him, and Song Que knows the ideal of not preaching lightly, and there is no reason to call Lei Hu upside down.

The days went smoothly, and it didn't take long for the two daughters to become pregnant and give birth to a son and a daughter, and the successors of the Guogong Mansion were very lively, and at the same time, the subordinate officials and soldiers were also completely relieved.

After that, Lei Hu lived a comfortable life, accompanying the two ladies and children every day, everything in the territory was on the right track, and there was no need to bother him to come forward in person.

The marriage between Wu Guogong and the Song Valve also completely stabilized the entire south, and there was no rebellion that made the imperial court angry and sent troops to encircle and suppress it.

The economy of the entire South is taking off at a jaw-dropping speed.

As the population of the territory of the Duke of Wu became more and more numerous, and after reaching six million, the development of the fifth essence of the south accelerated sharply, and the entire south showed a thriving atmosphere.

If it is placed in the north, such a good situation may disappear at any time, and most of the benefits of the regional economic explosion will be taken away by the family gatekeeper, as for how the people at the bottom were before and how they are now.

The situation in the south is different, the scholars here are equally powerful, but Wu Guogong spared no effort to suppress and divide, and now the powerful forces of the scholars in the territory have been sharply divided, either unable to keep up with the situation and completely taken down, or forced to transform into a business family, and the impact on the territory has been reduced again and again.

This is also the development of the territory of Wu Guogong, has been very smooth for the sake of the people, the people have a layer of vampire worms on their heads, and a large number of interests that were originally monopolized by the nobles have allowed the people to share the benefits, not to mention the nourishing life, and the cohesion is also rising again and again.

All outsiders who have been to the territory of Wu Guo are attracted by such a thriving development atmosphere, and they are even more fascinated by such a stable public security environment and a prosperous and powerful atmosphere.

It didn't take a few years at all, Lei Hu completely absorbed and digested the two counties of Huiji and Danyang, which were newly included in the territory, not to mention the extra land, the specialties and geographical location of the two places alone were enough to make the economic strength of the territory go to a higher level.

Whether it is economic, military or cultural, the Wu Prince's territory is advancing in parallel, in short, the entire Wu Prince's territory has developed quite rapidly in the early years of the great cause.

Of course, this is all indispensable to the help of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui.

It is said that after Yang Guang ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to clean up his own brothers.

The first prince Yang Yong's death is unknown, not to mention, and then the Han king Yang Liang who was assigned to the Jin land to sit in the town, this Han king controls the military and political power of dozens of cities in the Jin land, and there are more than 100,000 border troops under his hands, and the strength is quite strong.

With Yang Guang's temperament, how could he tolerate such a brother with real power?

First, in the year of his accession to the throne, he recruited Yang Liang, the king of Han, to go to Beijing without success, and then decisively sent troops to enter the Jin Dynasty under the leadership of Prime Minister Yang Su, and directly designated Yang Liang, the king of Han, as a rebel.

At that time, Lei Hu had just left Guanzhong with a thousand guards, and after hearing the news, he wrote to Yang Guang as soon as possible, hoping to get the Han rebels captured by Wang Shi.

Whether it is young and strong or his family members, old and young, Lei Hu said that he would not choose, and the Duke of Wu could accept them, and even exchange food for these prisoners.

Yang Guang didn't know that out of consideration for businessmen and people, he agreed to Lei Hu's request.

As a result, Yang Liang, the king of the Han Dynasty, was defeated and captured in the north, and a group of rebel soldiers and their families who followed him were sent to the territory of Wu in the south.

Unfortunately, at this time, the construction of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal had not yet begun, and these captives and their families had to walk thousands of miles on foot, waiting until they reached the edge of the Yangtze River to be completely stabilized.

Obviously, the Sui army in charge of escorting was not careful, and the local government along the way was even more indifferent, resulting in more than half of the prisoners and their families killed and injured on the road, and those who were able to safely reach the territory of the Duke of Wu were only in their early 200,000s.

Lei Hu is not picky, 200,000 is 200,000, and it is not without a small supplement for the territory.

In order to maintain this 'human trafficking' model, the grain and grass allocated by Lei Hu to the imperial court were delivered in the amount when the prisoners first set off.

Obviously, Wu Guogong's generous performance is not only satisfied with Yang Guang's heart, but also the officials who have benefited from the specific handling below are also extremely satisfied, and they feel that Wu Guogong is arrogant and a scene person.

"the hell!"

At the high-level meeting of the territory, Lei Hu couldn't help but burst into foul language about this: "A good population of four or five hundred thousand, of which half are young and strong, only half of them are young, and less than half of them are young, do you think Lao Tzu doesn't know the Tao?" ”

It's just that he just doesn't want Lei Hu to be happy, whether it is Yang Guang, who has just ascended the throne, or the important ministers in the court, they are obviously not at ease with Lei Hu, the southern tyrant.

It's just a pity that the large-scale counterinsurgency within the Central Plains is just that, but fortunately, the next conflict with the Turks and other alien races outside the Saiwai continued, and Lei Hu was still able to get a steady stream of foreign captives to replenish it.

These foreign captives bought with money are all used as laborers, their personal freedom is very restricted, and there is a large amount of labor in the territory to squeeze their surplus value, so there is no need to worry that the number of these steppe alien captives will affect the stability of the territory to a certain extent.

Wu Guogong did not lack money and food, but what he lacked was strong labor.

Anyway, the foreign captives went to the south, and they were really familiar with the situation of life, and the security management of the territory was very strict, so there was no time and space for them to toss at all.

Anyway, as long as the daily amount of labor is completed, the life is very peaceful, and even many foreign prime-aged captives have the idea of living for a long time.

It is not surprising at all, the living environment of the Saiwai grassland has always been harsh, and it is far worse than the territory of the Southern Wu Kingdom. , which is far from being in every aspect.

When the territory of Wu Guogong and even the entire south were developing rapidly, Yang Guang, who had stabilized the situation, started his journey to the death by abusing the people's power and making the people angry......
