Looking at the thoughtful appearance of Yang Ku and the others, Wang Ze made a comparison on the map: "Everyone knows that because of the cold weather in the north, the height of the northerners is much higher than that of the southerners, so generally speaking, the northerners have an advantage in fighting. In addition, the colder the place, the more it can hone people's will, so that the foundation in the north can maintain the enterprising spirit of our children and grandchildren for a longer time! ”

Everyone actually knows the truth that from ancient times to the present, although the world has been divided and disputed, it is the regime that occupies the north and wins the final victory in the struggle for the world, and even if the regime that unifies the world is mostly set in the north.

"Good, good!" Yang Ku praised repeatedly, and said a few words in a row, "I didn't expect that the little marquis was thinking so long-term, but if you want to attack here, you have to think about it carefully in advance, and make full preparations, and you can't rush for quick success!" In the next few years, we can send a large number of caravans to these places to take the opportunity to buy furs and medicinal herbs to explore information so that we can act in the future! ”

"Yes, as long as we occupy these lands in the north, we are not afraid that anyone will dare to invade us, you don't know, the land around Zhenhai is a full three or four feet thick black soil, that is a good soil that can be grabbed and oiled!" Qu Liulang is the most enthusiastic about Zhenhai, which still only exists on the map, and the shipyard to be built here in the future is closely related to their naval army.

"Haha, the sixth brother is not only here in Zhenhai, the entire Mingtong River basin plus Kuyi Island is a large area of black soil, although half of the year is covered with ice and snow in winter, but the temperature here in summer is still very suitable for the growth of soybeans and spring wheat!" Because in the previous life, many villagers went to the Northeast, and these people often went home to visit their relatives, and Wang Ze also knew some of the situation in the Northeast through these people.

"Little Marquis, since the land in these places is so fertile, then we can tell the people in all parts of the East China Sea that as long as the people are willing to go to these places, we can arrange land for them that far exceeds that of Qinjin, Changzhou and other places! In this way, the occupation of these lands will inevitably be accelerated! Yang Ku thought for a moment and made his own suggestion.

"What Mr. Yang said makes sense, but although there are a lot of forests in Zhenhai, Jiangkou, Kuyi Island and Ezo Island, because of the cold weather, it will take hundreds of thousands of years for the forests in these places to grow, so we still have to plan for these places first, so we can plan for the long run!"

Wang Ze thought that no matter how many forests there were in the northeast, they still had to be protected, and he didn't see that at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Heilongjiang still had more than 70 percent of the forest coverage, but after large-scale felling, it took only a few decades for those vast forests to quickly disappear from the earth.

If you think that the forests in the Heilongjiang River basin are everywhere now, and if you don't protect them, these forests will be cut down in the next 100 years, and then you will regret it if you want to protect them again! In addition, bases that have been established and will be established in Nanyang, Western and other places should also be planned in advance.

"Haha, little marquis, you are looking for the wrong person, you have to discuss this kind of thing with Steward Yan and Dean Tan and the two of them!" Yang Ku laughed and said to Wang Ze.

Wang Ze also laughed and said: "The two of them will definitely not be able to run, but you have to arrange a few officials in charge of civil affairs in these two places now, and in the future, Steward Yan and Dean Tan will not need your officials to cooperate with the manpower arranged there!" ”

Saying that, Wang Ze turned to Boss Yan and said: "Steward Yan, now the planning of Zhenhai, Jiangkou, Kuyi Island and Ezo Island is about to begin, although most of these places are flat, but you can't let people crowd them all together, you can make the future settlements more sparsely distributed, and the population of each place must also be limited." In addition, the total land area of each stronghold as pasture and arable land and village should not exceed two-tenths of the area! ”

Regardless of Boss Yan going to the side to have a headache, Wang Ze said to Carpenter Tan again: "Mr. Tan, I will leave the matter of building the city in these places to you in the future, but you have built the city for me, but you can't have to rebuild it in a decade or two!" ”

Carpenter Tan went to build Qinjin Fortress as soon as he finished building Jeju New Town, but as a result, Qinjin Fortress was built and then went to build Jinmen Fortress (Kitakyushu), and now Jinmen Fortress is less than half built, and there are so many things waiting for him to do in the back.

Although it is very rewarding to watch the cities stand up in his hands, but it is very tiring to stand up to the hard work of all these years, but looking at Wang Ze's trusting gaze, Carpenter Tan still gritted his teeth and agreed, and now there are a few deputies who have been trained, and it is a big deal to let them take charge of the construction of a few small strongholds.

After thinking about it, Carpenter Tan opened his mouth again and said: "Little Hou Ye, I think that the names of Kuyi Island and Ezo Island are not too popular, and the old man thinks it is better to change the name!" ”

Oh? When did Carpenter Tan also care about whether the name sounded good or not? Wang Ze felt a little strange in his heart, but he still smiled and said, "It's better for Uncle Tan to give a name!" ”

Carpenter Tan laughed at himself: "Although the old man knows a few big characters, where can he name it, this kind of thing is still the little marquis and a few gentlemen!" ”

Seeing that everyone turned their eyes to themselves, the sheep twisted his beard and thought about it and smiled: "It is reported that a hundred years ago, the Northern Wei Dynasty sent people to the indigenous tribes on Kuyi Island to ask for whale oil, and this place was once called Whaling Island, and now the little marquis also sent Ling Cheng to hunt whales here, why don't you call this island Whale Island!" ”

The generals of the navy all felt that it was good and agreed, Wang Ze thought about it, then it should be called Whale Island, and Kuyi Island was also impatient to change its name, it should be called Sakhalin Island! 97 Chinese

This side finally straightened out the development direction of various counties in the East China Sea in the next few years, and Wang Ze's heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, suddenly Wang Ze saw Gu Bin, the captain of the navy who had been training the navy near the port, running into the courtyard and shouting to Wang Ze: "Little Marquis, we went to sea to train and met the envoy sent by Nan Chen, and now the ship that the envoy of Nan Chen is on has entered the port, and now it should be preparing to go ashore!" ”

What! Nan Chen sent an envoy to Qinjin? During this period, no major events would be sent to envoys, so could it be that there was something bad about Nan Chen?

Before the Great War between Nanchen and Northern Zhou, the two sides fought on both sides of the Yangtze River for thousands of miles from Jiangzhou at the mouth of Poyang Lake to Xiangzhou in Xiangshui, but although the Northern Zhou Dynasty had an advantage in Jiangbei, Nanchen relied on the naval army that far surpassed the Northern Zhou in Jiangnan but was in an advantageous position.

It is said that Nan Chen now has the superior naval army in hand, even if he can't win the Northern Zhou army, he will not be defeated or lost, at least it is a stalemate situation, and I don't know what happened to Nan Chen now sending envoys to find him.

In addition, it is said that the envoys of both sides, Nan Chen should also go to the land of Sanqi to find his father Wang Yongcai, what is the matter with running to himself!

Alas, forget it, let's go and see what's going on, I'm worried about my fate, a lot of things have just been arranged in Qinjin, Changzhou and further north, and Nanchen here has something to look for.

After thinking of this, I breathed a long sigh of relief, and turned to the people in the room who were still "buzzing" to discuss things: "Mr. Yang, you and Steward Yan and Dean Tan are here to discuss things first, and I'll go and see what the envoy of Nanchen has to do!" ”

Saying that, Wang Ze walked out of the lobby, and He Liang, Qu Liulang, Zheng Kui and others, who had nothing to do, hurriedly followed, Wang Ze asked Gu Bin as he walked: "Captain Gu, who is the envoy from Nan Chen this time?" Do you know what happened to them when they came to the East China Sea? ”

Gu Bin also introduced as he walked: "Little Marquis, I also led the army to drill the warship at sea when I suddenly encountered one of our merchant ships coming back from Nanchen, and the caravan on the ship said that there was a group of people on the ship who claimed to be envoys from Kuyi Island, so I got on the ship to take a look, who knew that when I was about to leave the merchant ship, suddenly a man dressed as an ordinary maritime merchant said that he was an envoy of Nanchen!" ”

"Hehe, these Kuyi people have finally returned from Nanchen!" Wang Ze secretly sneered in his heart, what's the use of waiting for him to wait to run to Nan Chen, Nan Chen is not because he has a hot fight with Bei Zhou, where is there any kung fu to deal with these people, I am afraid that these people will come to him again.

However, the Kuyi envoy put it aside first, Wang Ze was now concerned about Nan Chen's situation, and he asked Gu Bin: "Why Gu Duwei, do you know that Nan Chen envoy?" ”

It turned out that the envoy of Nanchen who came this time was none other than Wu Qiong, the son of Wu Mingche, whom Wang Ze had seen before, had been by Chen Baxian's side as a general of the forbidden army, and Gu Bin had also seen it in Jiankang City when he followed Wang Ze to Nanchen before, as for what Wu Qiong suddenly came to Qinjin for this time, he didn't say, he just said that he wanted to see Wang Ze.

Wang Ze was very surprised that Wu Qiong came to Qinjin this time not on Nan Chen's own ship, but on an ordinary merchant ship under Wang Ze's command.

This ship belongs to the East China Sea Commercial Bank currently presided over by Han Zheng, and it travels between the islands in the East China Sea occupied by Wang Ze and the land of Nanchen Sanwu, basically one round trip every month, which is the most ordinary ship under Wang Ze's command! ”

When Wang Ze saw Wu Qiong, he was even more surprised, the once handsome and dashing Wu Qiong is now much thinner, looking several years older, and his eyes have lost the spirit of the past, what surprised Wang Ze the most was that Wu Qiong was wearing a white linen dress, with a white filial piety hat on her head, and her shoes were wrapped in white linen.

"Brother Wu, you are ·······" Seeing Wu Qiong with heavy filial piety, Wang Ze was shocked, could it be that Wu Qiong's son Wu Mingche was killed by Northern Qi when he was fighting for Yuzhou with Northern Qi?

It shouldn't be, as a famous general of Nan Chen, in history, Wu Mingche has lived until the tenth year of Taijian (578 AD), that is, eighteen years later, but who else can Wu Mingche make Wu Qiong wear filial piety?

Just when Wang Ze's mind changed, Wu Qiong said to Wang Ze with grief: "Xiahou, my majesty has died!" ”
