Looking at Chen Baxian's expectant eyes, Wang Ze looked at Chen Qian beside him and motioned for him to speak first, after all, Chen Ba first wanted to take a look at the strategic vision of Nan Chen's heir in the future, which could be regarded as a small test for Chen Qian.

Chen Qian, who was still listening attentively just now, shook her beard, and hurriedly gathered her clothes and sat down and said: "Uncle, the little nephew thinks that Wang Lin disregards the safety of Yingzhou's foundation, and this time he will lead the army out of the nest and march eastward in a big way!" ”

Wang Ze only felt that the 'meat' on his back trembled, and said in his heart: "If you add a sentence 'Yuanfang, what do you think' in front of you, it would be perfect!" ”

Chen Ba first loosened the collar on his body, probably thinking that kneeling and sitting was too tiring and changed to cross-sitting, and when he heard Chen Qian's words, he looked at Chen Qian and encouraged him with interest: "Since Tan Qian thinks that this matter is very strange, then let's talk about it carefully, you and I will think about it!" ”

Hearing his uncle's encouragement, Chen Qian suddenly came to the 'spirit' and he raised his voice: "Everyone in the world knows that Wang Lin is dependent on the Yuwen clan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the Yuwen clan took the opportunity of forming an alliance with Xiao Yi (Emperor Yuan of Liang) to kill Xiao Yi's sixth brother Xiao Ji and eighth brother Xiao Jing, taking advantage of the 'chaos' to seize the land of Yiliang Erzhou and Jingxiang, and he is the most greedy for land!"

Now that Wang Lin is pouring out of the nest regardless of the safety of Yingzhou's foundation, it must be in exchange for land in exchange for the Northern Zhou Yuwen clan to send troops to help, so Wang Lin's offensive is so fierce! ”

Chen Baxian smiled and nodded to Chen Qian: "Yes, it's already very good that you can think of this, and I will rest assured that you will need to work a lot in the future," he said, and turned his head to look at Wang Ze, who was sitting side by side with Chen Qian, "It's your turn for you!" ”

Chen Qian immediately set his eyes on Wang Ze beside him, and he also wanted to hear what this ten-year-old little brother had to say.

Seeing that Chen Baxian's uncle and nephew both set their eyes on him, Wang Ze said in his heart, "I can't imagine that when we also have the time to guide the country and 'excite' the words, it is just that the dung Wanhu Hou can't do it."

Thinking about it, Wang Ze sat up straight and replied: "What King Linchuan said just now coincided with what the little nephew thought, but Wang Lin may not have taken the initiative to exchange land for the Northern Zhou Yuwen clan to send troops, but it may also be forced by the Northern Zhou Yuwen clan's strategy to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf!" ”

Chen Ba first glared at Wang Ze and said angrily: "What is the name of King Linchuan, since you call me uncle, then you have to call Tan Qian brother!" ”

Wang Ze felt a chill in his heart, his father is forty years old this year, Chen Qian is thirty-eight years old this year, and this brother is about the same age as his father, but although Wang Ze thinks so, the two are still brothers to each other and have set their names.

Chen Baxian, who was looking at the scene in front of him, smiled and said, "Tan Qian, did you hear that?" Although Da Lang is so much younger than you, he can see it more thoroughly! ”

Chen Qian thought for a long time and looked suspicious: "Uncle, isn't most of the Northern Zhou Dynasty troops in the country falling into the battle with the Northern Qi?" How could there be spare energy to 'meddle' in the affairs of the Southern Dynasties? Please also ask my uncle to solve the 'confusion'! ”

Chen Baxian explained in detail and said: "Although Wang Lin was listed as the three major generals under Emperor Yuan along with me and Wang Seng Debate, he is now the leader of the upstream states and counties.

But I know that he has always been afraid of the Northern Zhou. As long as the Northern Zhou Dynasty supervised the military forces of Jing, Xiang and other fifty-two states, and Shi Ning, the assassin of Jingzhou, led tens of thousands of troops in Jingxiang, and seized Wang Lin's old nest Yingzhou while Wang Lin's nest was empty, Wang Lin would definitely not dare to return to the division to regain the foundation, and would only storm the east in order to seize the land of Jiangdong!"

Chen Ba said this first and then said no more, Chen Qian suddenly realized: "In this way, the Northern Zhou Dynasty can make my Da Chen fall into a 'engagement' war with Wang Lin without much effort, and my Southern Dynasty will not be able to go north with all its strength to continue to recover the hometown of Xuzhou and Yanzhou!" ”

The intention of the Northern Zhou is very clear, that is, to find something for you to do in Nan Chen, the Northern Zhou of the province and the Northern Qi fierce battle there have been cheapened by Nan Chen, Wang Lin's army can consume the national strength of Nan Chen on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to contain the Northern Expedition of Chen's army.

Seeing that Chen Qian had already understood this general trend, Chen Baxian smiled and asked, "Since you have understood the situation, do you know how to deal with it?" ”

Chen Qian was puzzled, raised her eyes and saw the smiles of Chen Baxian and Wang Ze, Chen Qian suddenly thought of Wang Ze's previous words about treating Wang Lin as dry bones in the grave, and suddenly understood Chen Baxian's layout in her heart.

In the eyes of Chen Baxian and Wang Ze, Chen Qian suddenly stood up, and he said excitedly: "I understand, now Wang Lin's army and Lu Sidda are holding each other and Beijiangzhou, and the Huainan land in Jiangbei is now owned by our dynasty.

At that time, as long as the governor of Jiangbei is Chun Yu and the governor of Da Du will directly 'insert' Huangcheng from Gaotang County in Jiangbei, Wang Lin's back road can be cut off and Wang Lin will fall into an isolated and helpless situation.

Then the governor of Ouyang Yu, who was stationed in Lingnan, is now in Anyuan County, as long as he unites Mrs. Xian to go north to 'insert' Nankang County, he can go down the river to Linchuan and Yuzhang, and destroy Zhou Di and Xiong Tanlang in these two places, and directly 'insert' Wang Lin's flank! In this way, Wang Lin's destruction is just around the corner! ”

Hearing Chen Qian's words, Chen Baxian clapped his hands happily and praised: "Tan Qian is really the hero of my sect!" Came to mind so quickly! ”

Chen Qian was a little embarrassed: "My nephew didn't figure out these problems until now, but my uncle had already started to lay out them a few years ago!" If you want to prosper the Southern Dynasty and recover the Central Plains, it is also a good time to wait! ”

Chen Baxian shook his head, the excitement on his face gradually receded, but he looked a little gloomy, he shook his head and said: "Where is it so easy, this Northern Expedition to recover Huainan is because the Northern Qi Dynasty is retrograde in Huainan, so the local officials and people all miss the Southern Dynasty and respond, plus all parties besieging the Northern Qi 'pumping' troops to support the states and counties of Huainan, so this time can quickly recover Huainan!"

However, now that the Northern Zhou Dynasty is developing rapidly and its national strength is thriving, it is already a trend of Ying Qin dominating the world from a high position in the upper reaches. It is only because of the decades of 'fighting' between the two countries of Zhou and Qi that my southern dynasty barely has a chance to breathe, and once the northern dynasty is unified, I am afraid that it will be the end of our southern dynasty! ”

Wang Ze saw that Chen Baxian was a little depressed, and suddenly he was a little anxious, Wang Ze had already planned to support Southern Chen, in order to maintain the situation of the north and south of the Central Plains, if Chen Baxian did not have the strength of the Northern Expedition to recover the Central Plains, then who else could fight against the Northern Dynasty!

After organizing the language in his heart, Wang Ze knelt down and sat up: "Uncle, I have a word, but I don't know if it is in line with my uncle's mind, and I hope that my uncle will listen carefully!" ”

Chen Ba had long known that Wang Ze had always had a lot of ideas, and when he heard him take the initiative to offer a plan, he hurriedly said: "Da Lang has any ideas, tell me quickly!" ”

Wang Ze simply stood up, after all, it was still uncomfortable to sit on his knees, he pointed to the map unfolded in the study and explained to Chen Baxian's uncle and nephew: "Since ancient times, those who 'want' to guard Jiangnan must guard Jingxiang and Lianghuai, these two are the barriers of Jiangdong, if there are no two in hand, Jiangdong will lose sooner or later."

Now the land of Lianghuai has been recovered by my uncle's Northern Expedition, and the most important land of Jingxiang is still in the hands of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the land of Jingxiang has always been the throat of Jiangnan. Once we can't control my hands, the Northern Zhou Dynasty will be able to march down the river by land and water, and it is very likely that the north and south of the river will be separated, resulting in a very small strategic maneuver space for our Southern Dynasty, so my uncle had that worry just now! ”

Seeing Wang Ze's gaze looking at him, Chen Baxian also nodded and said, "Da Lang's words have won my heart, this is exactly what I am worried about!" Now, although the strength of our Southern Dynasty has recovered a lot, it is a narrow strip from north to south, and if it is cut off by someone, it is like a long snake, although it has brute strength, it cannot be used!

In addition, the Southern Dynasties have always lacked iron ore, and there are many mountains, forests, rivers, and fertile fields, so how can the lack of troops and food be able to defeat the tiger and wolf army of the Northern Dynasties. ”

Looking at Chen Baxian's sad face, Wang Ze laughed instead, and Chen Qian was puzzled: "Why is Da Lang laughing for no reason?" ”

Wang Ze stopped laughing and replied: "I laugh at Uncle Chen's empty piece of treasure land but he doesn't know how to use it, if that piece of treasure land is developed, I'm afraid Da Chen's national strength will be doubled again!" ”

At this time, Chen Baxian and Chen Qian couldn't sit still, and gathered around together and asked, "I don't know which piece of treasure land it is, please tell me in detail!" ”

Wang Ze smiled and didn't answer, just drew a big circle on the map with his hand, and Chen Qian exclaimed, "Could it be Nanhai County?" But there is a miasma everywhere, and it has always been a wild place, and most of the northerners will suffer countless deaths and injuries? ”

However, Chen Baxian didn't say anything, he just stared at the map and thought carefully, Wang Ze didn't bother him, and let Chen Ba think about it first.

After about a cup of tea, Chen Baxian turned his head to look at Wang Ze: "When I joined the army with Xiao Ying in Guangzhou, I also spent a lot of time in Nanhai County, where it is extremely hot in summer all year round, but the locals don't grow rice, but I think it should still be possible to grow two or three crops of rice!"

It's just that there is a lot of miasma in Lingnan, and it is not easy to develop this land, and there are still a large number of slang and Lao tribes who do not obey the king, and there are many acts of capturing the people, and it is too difficult to develop Lingnan! ”

Chen Qian leaned up and said to Chen Baxian: "Uncle, slang people are not difficult to deal with, have you forgotten Mrs. Xian?" As long as Mrs. Xian supports you, the other tribes will be easy to say. ”

Chen Baxian was still thinking without saying a word, and Wang Ze said loudly: "Uncle is only worried about the conflict between Han immigrants and the local people, which will affect the friendship with Mrs. Xian, which is not difficult to deal with. ”

Now it came to Chen Baxian's heart, and he looked at Wang Ze and motioned for Wang Ze to continue.

Wang Ze knelt down and said to Chen Baxian: "Now there are few people in Lingnan, there are only hundreds of thousands of Han people in more than ten prefectures and counties, and the local slang and Liao tribes together are only more than a million people, and the slang and Liao people have never been engaged in farming, just collecting and grazing, and they do not cherish the land very much.

In this way, the uncle could exchange the gold and silver wealth for a large area of wasteland that could be cultivated from the tribal leaders, concentrate on relocating a large number of people to live and farm, and organize young and strong people to practice martial arts during the slack time, so as to consolidate the control of the imperial court there!

Those tribal leaders will not say anything after they get gold and silver wealth from His Majesty, and when they see Han people farming and food and clothing, they will naturally be envious, and ask for Your Majesty, and Your Majesty can also show favor to them! ”

For the tribal leaders of Lingnan, Chen Baxian had the means to deal with it, but because of Mrs. Xian's affection, Chen Baxian was still unwilling to 'befriend' with the slang Liao.

However, Chen Baxian is most worried about the miasma problem, as long as this problem is not solved, the relocation of Hermes-Epitek is just an empty word.

Another important point is that the weather in Lingnan is hot, and the local mosquitoes are the biggest culprits in spreading malaria and other diseases, and there is also a point that northerners are easy to die of water and soil when they first arrive in Lingnan.

However, as long as there is a large number of laborers to fill in the backwater pools and ponds near the residential areas, the problem of mosquito breeding can be solved.

As for the big problem that has plagued Nan Chen for many years, it is easier to solve, and it is enough to prepare more tea, in fact, the nomads have long known this truth, but they will never explain it to outsiders.

Just when Chen Baxian and Wang Ze were discussing hotly, Chen Qian finally couldn't help the doubt in her heart: "Uncle, Da Lang, since the local people are scarce, and the natives have always been unrestrained, where did they 'get' a large number of laborers?" ”

Seeing Chen Qian's doubts, Chen Baxian, who relieved the pressure in his heart, said with a smile: "Lingnan slang people and Lao people often fight with each other for some trivial matters, and often take some people from hostile tribes as slaves, and when the time comes, we can buy a large number of slaves as long as we use a small amount of property." ”

Chen Qian shook her head and said: "Even so, there are only more than a million natives in Lingnan, how to deal with the development of the entire Lingnan land, I am afraid that it will also cause the aborigines to hate the Han people, and then it will be a bloody storm." ”

Hearing Chen Qian's objection, Chen Baxian hesitated a little, Wang Ze reminded: "Brother, don't worry, there is not enough land in Guangnan, and there is still 'handover' the state!" At that time, the uncle only needs to let the slang and Liao tribes attached to the imperial court attack the Zhan and Yue people in all parts of the 'Jiao' state, so that the slaves don't have to worry! ”

Chen Qian nodded vigorously in agreement: "The natives of 'Jiao' Prefecture have always refused to obey the king, and my uncle was there several times to quell the rebellion, so I can't help them. In this way, not only can the strength of those natives be greatly weakened without spending a single soldier in the imperial court, but also a large number of Dingkou laborers can kill two birds with one stone! ”

The local Han people are even more scarce than in Lingnan, and the local tyrants often rebel against the "rebellion" and have a sense of separation, and Wang Ze will not feel guilty at all about being ruthless to these people.

After thinking about it, Wang Ze added sinisterly: "Not only that, my uncle can also secretly instigate some local tyrants to rise up, and when the time comes, he can justifiably send a large army to kill some of them, and then take a large number of natives as slaves, and the vacated land can also house a large number of Han people!" ”

Chen Baxian sighed and said: "Although this plan is feasible, it is too hurtful after all!" "How did Chen Baxian not know that those people in the land of 'Jiaozhou' were not of the same mind as the imperial court, but their words were related to the fate of millions of people, after all, he was a little hesitant.

Hearing her uncle's hesitation, Chen Qian encouraged: "Uncle, after all, if you are not from my race, your heart will be different, and you can't bear to be harmed by it in the future!" Moreover, the uncle could publish the articles among the people, and all the people of the Southern Dynasty could assemble in various county towns, and the imperial court would send official ships to Lingnan. ”

Wang Ze was secretly happy in his heart, as long as Chen Baxian decided to develop Lingnan, Wang Ze would have the confidence to extend his power to Lingnan 'Jiao' Guangzhou Erzhou.

The land of 'Jiao' Guangzhou Erzhou is "fertile" and beautiful, rich in products, as long as it can be developed, then the profits that can be obtained are thousands of times, and the richest since ancient times is to seek the country!

Seeing that Wang Ze and Chen Qian were both strongly supportive, Chen Baxian also nodded and said: "Then arrange it like this, and add one more: those who have spare strength by themselves can go to the area designated by Lingnan to reclaim the wasteland on their own, and then start collecting taxes after three years of reclamation." It's just Dalang, why do you only say that Lingnan 'Jiao' Guangzhou and Erzhou instead of Ganshui and Xiangshui do it? ”
