Chapter 290: Burma Surrenders
Hearing this, the lord of Burma was ecstatic and immediately promised, "If the country of Morocco is destroyed, more than 5 million people in my country of Burma will live forever and be the people of Dafeng..."
It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree.
The Lord of Burma understands this.
Moreover, this time the army is going to the Poison.
There are vast rivers and mountains.
Once the yin poison has become Dafeng's territory, how can he protect himself with his own one-third of an acre?
Only by planning early can we ensure the safety of the country.
A banquet for both guests and hosts.
The army was encamped in Burma, and the Burmese lord was not stingy, and provided a large amount of military supplies with great interest.
At the same time, Di Qing also saw exotic customs.
There are elephant soldiers in Burma!
Everyone saw an elephant for the first time and was amazed.
It is said that there were also many elephant soldiers in the country, at least in the thousands.
However, Di Qing did not panic at all.
Because this time they went out not only with a large number of gunpowder canisters, but also with a large number of rockets.
As the name suggests, a gunpowder bag is tied to an ordinary arrow.
With rockets, it will be invincible to deal with such a behemoth as the elephant soldiers.
The army rested for a few days.
Di Qing sent an army of 20,000 to conquer the country of Morocco.
This battle was a big surprise.
The army of Morocco is simply a rabble.
Not even a decent piece of armor.
The weapons used are also varied with bells and whistles.
There are even original bronzes.
There was not a trace of suspense in the battle, and it ended in less than half a day.
The national flag of Dafeng was once again hung above the capital of Morocco.
At the same time, the credentials of the Lord of Burma and the mission departed for Da Bong.
When the news arrived in the capital, the whole city was boiling.
Breaking the territory, Guo Tianyi did it.
First conquered Goguryeo, and then completely subjugated the Nanyi kingdoms.
Now, the Southwest Yi region has also fallen into the pockets of Daebong.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have decided that the lord of the country of Feng and Burma will be the marquis, and a new fief can be carved out of the vast land from Bangladesh to the country of Mo, what do you think?"
In the Jinluan Palace, Guo Tianyi announced the decision with a smile on his face.
"My Emperor Shengming!"
None of the civil and military officials objected.
That's a great thing.
To build bridges and roads, it is necessary to send a courtier to the fiefdom here.
Moreover, it can also greatly deepen the control of the southwestern barbarians.
The southwestern barbarians have basically been knighted, and sending a prince to go at this time can deter them even more.
"Your Majesty, I don't know if there is a suitable candidate?"
An old cabinet minister stood up and asked politely.
Guo Tianyi glanced at this person and said majestically, "This matter will be discussed after the restoration of the Vicious Ganbo Kingdom, and I have no plans to arrange a fief for the time being." ”
The old minister who spoke was named Zhang Fengze.
It's an old lady's relative.
At this time, he stood up and naturally wanted to intercede for the other princes.
However, Guo Tianyi said so, and Zhang Fengze had no choice but to retreat with interest.
"Report!"
"Eight hundred miles expedited!"
Suddenly, a brocade-clothed guard ran into the Forbidden City and went straight to the Jinluan Palace.
Guo Tianyi's pupils shrank, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the Tianhe River in Shandong Province has burst its embankment recently, and the flood has ravaged the northern part of Shandong Province, affecting more than 30 counties in three prefectures and six prefectures...."
"The people of Shandong Province are in dire straits, the governor, the envoy of the festival asks His Majesty for disaster relief as soon as possible..."
Before the brocade guard who reported the news finished speaking, he fainted.
Galloping all night, he had reached his limit.
The huge court hall was suddenly filled with a tense and depressing atmosphere.
"Come, take him down to rest."
"No!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, Shandong Daofa is flooded, who wants to go to disaster relief?"
Guo Tianyi was in a heavy mood, and it was already the autumn harvest season at this time.
The bursting of the embankment at this time is tantamount to a heavy blow.
People in the northern part of Shandong Province have not only been displaced, but also have no harvest.
Shandong Road is bigger.
The population density there is also quite developed.
Since he ascended the throne, he has been most afraid of natural disasters such as droughts, floods, and locust plagues.
Not to mention ancient times, even in later generations with advanced science and technology, there were times when there was a big flood.
In recent years, the construction of water conservancy has been a top priority.
However, what is due is still coming.
If you have enough time, you can consolidate it for a few more years, and you will promise that you will not easily become flooded.
Yuwen Yuanzhen was the first to take the lead and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to go." ”
Taiwei Wang Yuan also came out and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to go." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go to disaster relief..."
"Your Majesty...."
"Your Majesty...."
After the prime minister and the Taiwei spoke, the rest of the courtiers also spoke one after another.
Guo Tianyi does not raise idlers.
At this time, the country's economy has improved, and disaster relief is not a difficult thing.
Moreover, His Majesty may not be able to choose himself.
These old ministers, one by one, are more chicken thieves.
Disaster relief is a good thing, but if you don't do it well, you will get into trouble.
Looking at the courtiers who came out to petition one by one, Guo Tianyi fixed his eyes on Lu Siyuan's body.
Lu Siyuan, the first on the Enke Gold List, has been promoted from Hanling Academy to the household department.
Moreover, this person has an extremely good relationship with Wang Yuan's faction.
It's time for young people to go out and practice.
"Tobe Shangshu."
"The minister is here."
"I limit you to mobilize 200,000 stone of grain before dawn tomorrow for disaster relief."
"Obey."
"Lu Siyuan!"
"The minister is here."
"I have ordered you to be the minister of this disaster relief, and you will set off tomorrow with the disaster relief food, and you must pacify the victims."
"Obey the order!"
"Qin Yichuan, Gu Qian."
"The minister is here."
"I will assist Lu Siyuan and go to Shandong Road tomorrow."
"Your Ministers obey!"
Lu Siyuan and others were overjoyed.
They are all scholars with the title of the gold list.
Now, it's finally time to come in handy.
And this disaster relief is not trivial, how big are more than 30 counties in three prefectures and six prefectures?
If it's done.
They can get ahead.
In fact, Guo Tianyi has no score in his heart.
Now he knows the situation of the household department very well.
There is not much grain in reserve.
And also to feed hundreds of thousands of troops.
This disaster relief is not a child's play.
At the same time, Guo Tianyi issued another decree.
Due to natural disasters in Shandong Province, all Liang merchants in the world must unconditionally donate food for disaster relief.
One side is in difficulty and all sides support, and after issuing the holy decree in the name of the Son of Heaven, the grain merchants who dare to resist the decree also have to weigh it.
At the same time, it also restricts the loopholes for grain merchants to maliciously raise prices.
Every time there is a natural disaster, there are always people who want to make a fortune.
This kind of person is not a pity to die.
Following.
Lu Siyuan and the others set off.
However, the advance speed of the grain convoy was too slow, and after Lu Siyuan and others discussed, they decided to take the first step and go to Shandong Road.
The next day, the crowd arrived at Shandong Road.
The scene in front of him deeply shocked Lu Siyuan and others.
There are people everywhere.
Countless homes have been washed away by mudslides and starved to death.
And...
Just yesterday and today, the flood flooded again.
The area affected by the disaster has also expanded again.
"Damn."
"Your Majesty has spent so much money to build water conservancy and strengthen the river embankment."
"There must be something wrong with the officials of this Shandong Province."
Lu Siyuan looked at everything in front of him, clenched his fists and said angrily.
