Chapter 12 Moving Forward on the Right Path

Liaozhou is said to be a state, but if you just look at the area of the place, I am afraid that it is not much smaller than several states in the south of Dahan

Because the population, culture, and economy of the Han Dynasty are concentrated in the Central Plains, there are many prefectures in the Central Plains and Hebei, and there are only four prefectures in the huge southern region: Yizhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou, not only because of the complex terrain of these places, but also because of the sparse population, and there are so many cities and counties.

Today's Liaozhou is also a general situation, although Cao Cao has been defeated, there are still many things for the elites of the Han court to worry about, and what is even worse is that these things cannot be decided by a single department, so everyone can only say their own suggestions, and then let the emperor make the final decision.

A large state, and a completely new state, most of the area was extremely empty, and the few places where the settlement was concentrated were ignored because they did not conform to the habits of the Han Chinese.

At this time, it is necessary to determine where to establish towns, and then take these towns as the most basic points, and finally connect them into a vein that radiates the entire Liaozhou.

That's what towns do, and towns need to consider strategic needs in addition to livability and accessibility.

What's more, Liaozhou is not only a newly opened state, but also the current frontier state and county of the Han Dynasty, so it is necessary to consider the attack by foreign enemies and other issues, and these are not only to ask these civil officials of the imperial court, but also to ask those military generals.

But even then, it was impossible to decide where to build the castle, because it was necessary to conduct field surveys - many people in Liaodong County and the areas north of it did not know much about them, and there were very few records and atlases about these places, so they had to be carried out - and after this process, it is estimated that it will not be possible to determine where to build the town by next winter.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, Cao Cao is still using troops during this time, according to the current trend, the king of Goguryeo should be able to hold out until next year, but it will be difficult for him to hold on to it by next winter.

Without a place to live, it is impossible to support so many people and refugees through two winters, and at the same time, the winter weather in the Northeast is not a joke, in fact, this winter is enough to swallow most of the last breath of the Goguryeo Dynasty.

The only thing that supported them was that the Han Dynasty was unwilling to continue fighting and took the initiative to withdraw its troops.

When they realize that the Great Han will not retreat, and this time they are determined to fight them to the death, then the last bit of faith that supports them will be completely shattered.

Faith is broken, spiritual support is gone, material needs cannot be satisfied, and there is no hope of victory, at this time, a little more benefits, Liu Xuan does not believe that the group of Goguryeo people will really fight to the end with him.

To put it bluntly, Goguryeo was also a vassal state that had been subject to the Han Dynasty for many years, and they had always accepted the Han culture and belonged to a branch of the Han civilization.

In addition, Goguryeo has not really formed its own culture, and they will not resist many assimilation moves, so why should they keep fighting with the Han Dynasty?

After they were converted, the Han assured them that their lives would be worry-free, and within fifty years, the word Goguryeo would disappear from the minds of all the people.

In comparison, Xianbei, which still occupies the vast area to the north, is more of a headache.

"Actually, Xianbei is not monolithic, they have a lot of contradictions and do not belong to each other, several close families form a force, and their internal situation is not much stronger than that of the Han Dynasty in the early years!"

Liu Xuan nodded, which was also reasonable. If Xianbei were really so united, and almost everyone of the steppe herdsmen could be used as soldiers, what kind of army would Xianbei raise in such a vast grassland? I am afraid that it can be compared to the powerful Mongol Empire in later generations. ..., then how could the Xiongnu and the Han who were in chaos still exist? I am afraid that they have long been trampled into a piece of meat by the Xianbei army, and they will no longer exist!

"Now fighting against Cao Dudu (Cao Cao was once again named Dudu before his expedition to facilitate the command of soldiers and horses) are some tribes in the eastern part of Xianbei and the remnants of Wuhuan tribes!"

In fact, Wuhuan and Xianbei are both descendants of Donghu, so it is natural for Wuhuan to run away and mix with Xianbei after being defeated. **

After all, compared to the Han people of a completely different culture, Xianbei is also of the same race as them, even if there is a contradiction, this time can be put aside, and there is no contradiction between them in dealing with the Han people.

These things are still the lessons that Chen Lin helped Liu Xuan make up just now, otherwise Liu Xuan still didn't know about these things, he just thought that Xianbei was Xianbei and Wuhuan was Wuhuan, it turned out that there was such a canon in it

Looking at the map, Liu Xuan found that if the current situation of the war continued, then the Han would destroy Wuhuan, and then some tribes in the eastern part of Xianbei who were forced to merge with Wuhuan would continue to retreat to the north, so that Youzhou would be completely liberated from the threat of Xianbei and Wuhuan.

And the important point is that not only Youzhou was liberated, but Bingzhou did not have to worry about the enemy from the north, but could concentrate on dealing with the Xiongnu tribes in the west.

At that time, the halfway way of the Great Han was like a fist about to clench, and the Xiongnu became the last guy who stood in the way of this fist.

"When that time comes, it's time to make a move against the Huns!"

The Xiongnu have plagued the Central Plains Dynasty for many generations, and even in the heyday of the Han Dynasty, there was no real and complete solution to the threat of the Xiongnu - only one was defeated, and one remained

Now that Liu Xuan is the master, he is not the master who drives the bad guys away, not to mention that according to the current development, the Huns have almost become a dumpling stuffing wrapped in it, if you don't eat it in one bite, are you still waiting for others to grab it?

"When Xianbei is repelled and the Xiongnu are destroyed, I am afraid that the territory of the Han Dynasty will increase by a large block!"

Nowadays, a large grassland area in the west of Bingzhou and the east of Liangzhou is occupied by the Xiongnu, which is not particularly good for the Han people in the Central Plains, but it is the lifeblood of the Xiongnu.

And this area is not really a little less room for development, the key is that there are fewer places that can be used as arable land, and at the same time, there are more restrictions on the construction of cities, and if you occupy it, it is a bit more than worth the loss for the previous dynasties - the input and output are not proportional, and will become a burden to the imperial court for a long time or even hundreds of years, so even in the strongest period, no dynasty really included these areas in its own territory.

In fact, the situation in the Northeast is similar, and in some cases even worse—the climate in the Northeast is even worse than that grassland, and there was no suitable grain for the Northeast in the early years.

Of course, these problems are no longer a problem now, but the grassland area is still quite troublesome in building cities, but fortunately, this area is in the Yellow River basin, and it is a big deal to build cities along the Yellow River and its tributaries.

Looking at the Son of Heaven on the left and right, and even began to think about where to build a city, but this place is not the territory of the Han Dynasty at the moment, these ministers first felt weird, but then they felt that this situation was not strange, with the current strength of the Han Dynasty, let alone a Xiongnu Even if the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Qiang people are united, I am afraid that it will not be enough for the forbidden army of the Han Dynasty.

The strength of the big man, their group of people knows best.

Therefore, the Son of Heaven will build a city wherever he likes, and he doesn't care at all whether it is the territory of the Han Dynasty, even if it is not now, it will be sooner or later! If the Son of Heaven is in a hurry, it is a big deal to be a courtier and directly mention a soldier and horse to fight down and give the Son of Heaven a city to build a city to play. ..., in other words, it is also a blessing for me to be able to show my talents and learning under such an emperor, but thinking about the two before the Son of Heaven, who would have thought that this Han Dynasty would have such a weather today?

The more I think about it, the more incredible I feel, especially Lu Xun, he has been following the Son of Heaven for a long time, not long after Sun Ce destroyed his whole family, the Son of Heaven sent someone to contact the Lu family, strictly speaking, he was already a person from the imperial court at that time.

But he didn't stay with the Son of Heaven for long.

Because he has been undercover in Jiangdong, it was not until the Sun family fled overseas that he Lu Xun came into contact with the Son of Heaven, and it was not until that time that he was truly sure that his choice was indeed not wrong, but he still couldn't understand the Son of Heaven.

"What is the reason that a young genius has brought this dying man back on his shoulders and pushed him to a higher level?"

With this curiosity, Lu Xun didn't do anything after he entered the court, but he didn't look at it less! But the more he looked at it, the more confused he became, and by now, he didn't think about those messes, anyway, he just needed to be sure of one thing: under the leadership of His Majesty, the Han Dynasty will definitely become an incomparably powerful country.

He didn't know how strong it was, but he was looking forward to it.

But even so, after seeing Liu Xuan's various behaviors today, I couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement in my heart, in Liu Xuan's words: The knowledge is still too low, which is scared?

If Liu Xuan directly told Lu Xun that he not only wanted to dominate the world, but also to conquer the boundless sea of stars, it was estimated that this young man would faint directly.

After discussing for a while and understanding the situation in Liaodong, Liu Xuan casually asked about the situation here in Yamatai.

Urban Niu Li did a good job, the recruited workers were also very diligent, and under the teaching of Deng Zhi, Cheng Yu and others, they began to get in touch with the simple Han culture, because those who learned well will be rewarded - a sumptuous dinner and a small pot of wine, so this group of people learn very hard, and often see some guys muttering something in their mouths while working.

Liu Xuan secretly had fun every time he saw such a situation, and Chen Lin also said: "In less than thirty years, the land of Dongying is also full of Han people!"

This Han person is not a Han by blood, but a common person who has accepted the Han culture and lives like the Han people. In Dahan, there are many such people, and even the entire tribe of the ethnic group has accepted the sinicization, or it won't be long before the name of this tribe disappears.

Chen Lin admires the way the Son of Heaven occupies a country without bloodshed.

Although it is not a novel argument to influence the Quartet with talent, virtue and conduct, what is really implemented and can still see the effect has to be done today.

What I did earlier was too rigid in form, and as a result, the indoctrination was not good, but it provoked a group of white-eyed wolves, and it had to be used as a clever man.

Envy and power, even beating and soothing, plus temptation, these people came over very consciously.

"What is the current food situation?"

This question belonged to Cheng Yu, the waiter of the household department, and when he heard Liu Xuan's inquiry, he opened his mouth and replied: "The grain we bring is enough to survive this winter, and how much can we produce a batch of grain before this winter, not only is it enough for us to use, but also enough to take out a part of it and hand it over to Nansheng rice to invite merit!"

"Yes!"

After a few years of development, the harvest formation mastered by the household department has also been improved and replaced several times, and now several areas in the core of the Han Dynasty use the latest magic array, and the grain can be harvested twice a year, and the yield is also guaranteed, and the grain produced in a year is one and a half to two times that of the past.

As a result, Dahan's grain output has directly doubled, resulting in the current situation of Dahan is not that there is not enough food, but that there is too much grain and rice, and the price of grain on the market, which is almost full of grain depots, has also fallen again and again, and some of the reductions have affected the lives of the people. ..., in response to this situation, the imperial court made an urgent response - first to control the price of grain, and then to keep collecting excess grain.

In fact, this war was not without the fact that a large amount of food was consumed.

At the same time, some food-derived industries, such as winemaking, began to develop.

At the same time, several prefectures under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty were adjusted, and each prefecture was not required to work hard to cultivate the land, such as Jiangdong, which originally contributed little to grain production, and immediately began to develop industry, commerce and fishing, and at the same time began to send officials of the Ministry of Industry to the southeast coastal areas to inspect and select suitable places to build shipyards and naval bases.

And this shipyard is not only a military shipyard, he also asked people to bring a group of shipwrights who were eliminated by the Ministry of Industry, and the imperial court paid for them to set up private civilian shipyards, so that they could also provide jobs for the people in the southeast.

Anyway, there is a lot of grain in the Han Dynasty, and there is no difficulty in transportation, and it will not have any impact if it is transported to the south, and at the same time, it can also promote the development of the transportation industry, so that the people will not look for rebellion or anything if they have something to do.

Of course, there are so many problems that prove that the Han Dynasty has finally begun to embark on the road of rapid development, as long as it continues to follow this road.

And this Yingzhou in front of you......

Even with the continuous support of the Han Dynasty, it is not possible to achieve the level of prosperity of the richest prefectures and counties of the Han Dynasty, at least in a hundred years.

"Population...... Population!"

The occupation of Dongying by himself is for the sake of the population, and it is naturally impossible to move the people of the Han Dynasty to Dongying...... They were very unhappy to move to the northeast, and they came to a wild land overseas? I am afraid that in the eyes of many people, this is the same nature as exile: what crime have I committed, why did you do this to me?

It is estimated that this sentence will become the most frequent problem for a long time.

I walked around the beach, and I didn't take a few steps and suddenly saw Sun Shangxiang's figure.

Generally speaking, there are only two reasons why Sun Shangxiang will appear: he took her with him... Huang Yueying took her ......

Naturally he didn't bring it by himself when he suddenly appeared on the beach at this time, because he didn't call Sun Shangxiang when he went out, so it could only be Huang Yueying.

In fact, except for Huang Yueying and herself, no one dared to approach Sun Ce and Sun Shangxiang, because Diao Chan was gradually improving in cultivation, she could also feel Sun Shangxiang's abnormality, and she really couldn't have a good impression of this existence that was not a little angry, so she tried to avoid her.

Only Huang Yueying, who knows the truth, is not afraid, and Sun Shangxiang is strong, she will also bring her as a bodyguard when she goes out - she is a woman, and she doesn't have to shy away from doing anything.

At this time, Sun Shangxiang was here in a posture of guard, and it seemed that Huang Yueying should not be far away.

"Where's Yueying?"

"Niang Niang is swimming in the sea!"

It's been a busy day, and it's dusk.

The dusk sky, the yellowish sea, which was also illuminated, flashed and flashed, and it was impossible to see where there were people.

However, looking at the neatly arranged dresses not far away, Liu Xuan simply sat down here, and then stared blankly at the sea and waited for Huang Yueying to appear by herself.

After sitting for a while, I didn't see Huang Yueying's shadow, and I turned my head and asked Sun Shangxiang in boredom: "Won't you go down to swim for a while?"

I thought that this question was not a big deal, but I didn't expect Sun Shangxiang's face to be strange for a while (not wearing a helmet), and the corners of his mouth twitched for a while before he suddenly asked: "Is this His Majesty's order?"

At this time, Liu Xuan wondered, he had nothing to eat and enough to give this order?

"No, how?"

Sun Shangxiang's face became even more eccentric: "It's nothing...... I just don't think it's very convenient!"

Liu Xuanzheng was puzzled, and suddenly saw a flash of shyness on Sun Shangxiang's lifeless face, and suddenly understood.

Although Sun Shangxiang is a warrior who has been resurrected after the dead, he is absolutely loyal to him. But on this basis, she is still Sun Shangxiang, her personality and memory have not changed, and in this era, letting a young girl show her body in front of a man is indeed a bit of something.

If it weren't for Liu Xuan's question, it is estimated that it would be cut down directly, and this is not the end, after being hacked to death, it will be cut again and again until it is chopped into meat puree, so that the anger in his heart can be vented.

Thinking of this, Liu Xuan suddenly had an impulse, that is, to give an order as a 'master' to let Sun Shangxiang turn into a slippery mermaid in front of him.

"It should be very eye-catching・・・・・・"
