Chapter 268: Harvest
In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of August.
Of course, the change of seasons has no effect on the old land of Linyi Province in the South Seas, which is now Ninan-gun, the weather is still hot, and the rain is constantly falling every day, and there are pools of rainwater accumulated everywhere.
The cavalry under Wang Ze and Zhou Wenhua were sent away just after the end of the war because they were not adapted to such a climate, but in order to secretly combat the arrogance of the small infiltrating troops of Linyi State, Wang Ze transferred the 'Viper' troops who had been in Yizhou for several months.
After many confrontations with other alpine tribes in Yizhou, this originally elite team became even more sharp, and the number of people also expanded from the original two hundred to five hundred, and the vast majority of the soldiers who expanded were selected from the small alpine tribes who were willing to completely defect to Wang Ze.
Shen Li, Shen Bo and Shen He who Wang Ze had seen at the beginning all joined Lin Jing's command, especially Shen Li because he was the first batch of indigenous soldiers to join, and his own combat ability was strong, so he became a chief, and Shen Bo and Shen He were both soldiers under him.
With such an elite team coming here, a small group of Linyi soldiers who had originally sneaked into the three northern parts from Gujiluo by relying on the jungle finally encountered a strong enemy this time, and after a fierce confrontation, the soldiers of Linyi who had suffered heavy losses no longer dared to cross the border frequently.
In this way, when the people in Guangzhou learned that the soldiers of the Linyi Kingdom in Rinan County had disappeared, and several big families took the lead in buying land, at this time, a lot of land in Ninan County had been secretly bought, which made many people who hesitated at the beginning regret it.
No matter what kind of frenzy the sale of a large amount of land in Jiaozhou has set off in Lingnan, all this has not affected Wang Ze, and now that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is just here in Nanchen to see how the local people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
A few days before the arrival of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen Wendi Chen Qian, who was far away in Jiankang City, finally made a positive commendation to the generals and soldiers at all levels who participated in the recovery of Rinan County in the Han Dynasty and the suppression of the indigenous rebellion in Jiaozhou.
The first is the Governor of Ouyang, because this time, he is really hard and highly accomplished, and since the Southern Liang period, he has been guarding Lingnan for many years, so Chen Qian specially ordered him to be transferred back to Jiankang City to serve as the Governor of the Central Protector Army.
This is not that Chen Qian is taking the opportunity to weaken Ouyang Qi's military power, because Ouyang Wei is indeed old, and Ouyang Wei is sixty-five years old this year, which belongs to the end of life in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, which is rare in the seventy years of life, and calling Ouyang Wei back also means to let him recuperate.
After Ouyang Yu left, his son Ouyang Su was appointed as the most important Nanhai County Governor in Guangzhou, and Ouyang Sui's younger brother Ouyang Sui became the assassin of Jiaozhou and concurrently served as the governor of Jiaozhou.
Ouyang was followed by a reward for Mrs. Xian and other slang tribes, because of the particularity of slang people, Chen Qian still rewarded a large number of silk, porcelain, grain, cattle and horses, etc., and once again added Mrs. Xian as a first-class lady, and even generals such as A Niu also had corresponding rewards.
As for the old Jiang Zhou Wenhua, who was already in his fifties, he also made a very high contribution in this war, so he succeeded to the position of the governor of Lingnan and took over the position of Ouyang Wei; The post of governor of the Lingnan Navy was taken over by Chun Yukun, after all, the transportation from land to Rinan County was not as convenient as the waterway.
Moreover, Jiaozhou is close to the South China Sea, where maritime trade is developed, and pirates, bandits and other forces from various countries are rampant, and there is a strong naval army here, which can effectively suppress the ambitions of these people.
After leaving enough troops to garrison Rinan County, nearly 100,000 Nanchen troops finally retreated, although the ancient Qiluo guarded by Linyi Guogao Tengkai was not far from here, but because the people of the original Linyi State had been expelled, it did not affect Nanchen's rule here.
In the past two months, the army of Nan Chen continued to attack and plunder the population of Linyi Country like crazy, causing all the natives here to escape, even the people of Linyi Kingdom who were hiding in Gu Jiluo were extremely afraid of the people of the Central Plains, especially the army under the command of Ah Niu and Wang Ze, whose reputation was so loud that it could stop children crying at night.
After the end of the war, Wang Ze continued his unfinished guest journey with Mrs. Xian, and when he returned from Jiaozhou, Wang Ze still returned directly by boat, first transferred to the base in the south of Zhuya County, and shared the property seized in Inbora City with Zhou Wenhua, A Niu and others, and then came to Feng Fu.
Zhu Qingqing and Cheng Xueyan, who were waiting here during the previous battle, were anxious for a long time, even if they knew that the army around Wang Ze was strong in combat and there were doctors accompanying the army, but the two women were still very worried, especially during the period when Wang Ze was from Gaoliang County to Ninghai County, a large number of soldiers were basically sick every day, so the two women were not worried.
At this time, seeing Wang Ze return safely, he finally really felt at ease, so in the following time, under the guidance of Feng Fu, several people stayed in Gaoliang County for more than ten days, hunting buffalo, red deer, and rhinoceros every day, and having fun.
Zhu Qingqing and Cheng Xueyan are happy because Wang Ze'an came back safely, and they have been playing with the two for so long, of course they are happy, but Wang Ze is not only happy because of playing. The first grab
Wang Ze can't help but be happy, this time the layout in Jiaozhou can be said to be full, first used other shadows in Jiaozhi County, Jiuzhen County to buy a large amount of land, which has both strategic points, but also resource points, the later generations of Yue Monkey in the north of the coal mines and iron mines were all secretly pocketed by Wang Ze.
Although it is not possible to arrange mining immediately, after a few years later, when his strength here becomes stronger, he can gradually arrange small-scale mining, so that just providing iron tools to Nanchen is a great income, not to mention that it can make up for the lack of iron in the East China Sea.
Compared with the two northern counties where land is more sought-after, Wang Ze's harvest in Rinan, which is located in the southernmost county, is greater, because at the beginning, there was often a great threat from a small army of Linyi State, so the ordinary people of Nanchen did not dare to come at all, resulting in an exceptionally cheap land price, but Wang Ze took the opportunity to arrange for Wang Biao to buy a lot of land and take root here.
In this way, Wang Ze alone has at least 5,000 hectares of fertile land in Jiaozhi County and Jiuzhen County in Jiaozhou, and in Rinan County, Wang Ze has secretly purchased more than 10,000 hectares of land, all of which are suitable for cultivation.
However, because Wang Ze has other arrangements for these lands, Wang Ze's plan only needs to carry out a minimum amount of development for now.
When September was about to pass, Wang Ze suddenly received a letter from Chen Qian to himself, inviting him to go to Jiankang City to talk about it.
Chen Qian didn't know about Wang Ze's arrival before, when she distributed the rewards, she felt that Wang Ze was a foreign lord after all, so she only gave a lot of property, and other things like feudal officials didn't show their shame, and it is estimated that Chen Qian also knew that Wang Ze didn't care about this.
At that time, Chen Qian just wrote a letter saying that Wang Ze would travel to the land of Chen as if he were in his own home, and did not say anything about asking Wang Ze to go to Jiankang, and he didn't know what happened to Chen Qian.
Originally, Wang Ze really wanted to go and see it, after all, since the last time he went to Jiankang City, Wang Ze hadn't been there for several years, and he didn't know how Han Zigao and others were doing now.
But when Wang Ze packed his luggage and belongings, and took Zhu Qingqing, Cheng Xueyan and the Zhongwei Army, the Left Guard Army and the Navy Army in the Central Guard Army to prepare to set off, he had to miss this trip because of the arrival of a person, and had to go back to the East China Sea first.
The person who came was Mi Ke, who was supposed to be stationed on Hai'an Island (Tsushima Island), was also the son of the Mi clan on Yuzhou Island, and when he came to the port of Gaoliang County, Wang Ze was about to board the ship and go to Jiankang, but before the ship left the port, he saw Mi Ke's ship coming, and shouted loudly to find Wang Ze.
At that time, Wang Ze didn't know what was going on, and when he saw that the person who took the lead in shouting at him was Mi Ke, he suddenly felt too embarrassed, what the hell is going on with this guy?
But after Wang Ze asked about the situation, he was suddenly shocked, and he was surprised: "What? Even the situation of the Jinhae stronghold has been exposed? ”
Mi Ke said with a heavy face: "Yes, little marquis, the news came back from the eyeliner in Pyongyang City, and it is said that King Jinheung, the king of Silla, inadvertently learned the news from some maritime merchants, and then he told Goguryeo regardless of whether it was true or not!" ”
"I'll go, King Zhenxing has a good calculation!" Wang Ze was slightly surprised in his heart and said, "It seems that Goguryeo swallowed Baekje before and scared Goguryeo a lot, he provoked Goguryeo to go to war with us like this, so that Silla can be freed from the military pressure of Goguryeo, and if you don't get it, you can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight!" ”
After pacing for more than a dozen circles, Wang Ze finally thought of a countermeasure, and he said to Mi Ke: "You take a fast boat back to the East China Sea first, and tell General Hu, General Sun and others that there are not many people in Zhenhai after all, and let them arrange for the people there to retreat to places like Jiangkou further north!" ”
"And then let General Sun lead the First Fleet, and cooperate with Jiang Chuan's infantry to attack the cities along the western coast of Goguryeo, and still don't believe that Goguryeo can sit idly by and only care about attacking Zhenhai?"
After Mi Ke left, Zhu Qingqing curiously persuaded: "Da Lang, we only have one tunbao in Zhenhai now, and there are not many people, if it doesn't work, give up first!" ”
Wang Ze Zhengse said to Zhu Qingqing: "No, Zhenhai must not give up, if Goguryeo is really allowed to occupy here, then Jiangkou (Temple Street) and Sakhalin Island, where we currently have a large number of immigrants, will face a strong military threat from Goguryeo."
Moreover, starting from Zhenhai to the north, there is a large lake not far away, and further downstream, it is easy to attack along the Wushui River to the mouth of the river, and then cross the narrow strait and attack Sakhalin Island, so that our layout here will be ruined, and Goguryeo is likely to form a situation of dominating the northeast. ”
"Oh, so that's the case," Zhu Qingqing suddenly realized, and suddenly the little girl's little face tightened, clenched her fists and said, "We must not let Goguryeo and Silla, the clowns, get better!" ”
