It is said that the first round of pioneer regiments dispatched by the nobles had a total of 532 and a total of more than 30,000 people!

It can be seen that these nobles were really fooled by the big cake painted by Xiong Wuliang......

But then again, our Quyang Hou didn't lie to them after all.

The development of Lingnan is definitely a big benefit!

As for whether these benefits can finally reach the mouths of the nobles...... That's not easy to say......

Xiong Wuliang rushed to find Zhao Hua: "Mr. Zhao is talented!" Such a southern extension is really a lot of wins with one stone! ”

Zhao Hua stroked his beard and smiled: "The prince's grace order can be called the world's first conspiracy, and the minister's little tricks are not enough in front of the wisdom of the prince......"

The master and servant praised each other, and they both smiled from ear to ear.

It is true that in the long run, the Tui En Decree will be able to reduce the nobles to commoners.

But that's too long.

Xiong Wuliang can't keep letting the nobles of the Black Feather Guard Gang 'press and hold the video to speed up'...... Otherwise, it's too obvious.

Lingnan's pioneering plan will undoubtedly greatly weaken the strength of the nobles! Accelerate the process of 'strong cadres and weak branches'!

Kill more than one stone!

The nobles didn't have much manpower to use, and now they could consume another wave...... It also costs a lot of money to hire those tired people, rangers, etc., and it is another round of weakening.

On the other hand, the nobles summoned the rangers, the wereers, the prodigals, the doormen, the absconding criminals...... are all problems that cause headaches for officials at all levels.

Don't look at history, the reputation of the ranger seems to be quite good - for example, Cao Mo, Zhuanzhu, including the later drama Meng, Ji Bu and so on...... Probably the character is the righteous word first, for the sake of a good buddy, a knife in the ribs, a promise of a thousand gold, etc......

But for the imperial court, the ranger has a hundred disadvantages and no benefits.

Shang Ying, who had changed the law in the Qin State, hated the existence of rangers extremely much, and during the reform of the law, the rangers and tired people in the Qin State were all punished as fugitives, and later Han Feizi also put forward the saying that 'chivalry is forbidden by force, and Confucianism is chaotic with literature', which is similar to Shang Ying's point of view.

To sum it up, this gang of evil pens does not produce every day, is a street on the street, and will break the law at every turn! It's so hateful!

It's a nightmare for grassroots officials......

Imagine that you are a police station chief, there are so many well-known black clubs in the jurisdiction, they get together to drink every day, and the people in your house are famous fugitives, who dare to draw a sword and stab people if they don't agree with each other, and want to be famous when you drink a sip of wine, just for the ridiculous excuse of 'being famous', you have the motive to assassinate the nobles......

Scald!

The braincase is buzzing!

As for the so-called 'tired people', it is even more unbearable - in translation, it is a second-rate son, a ruffian and a hooligan.

The ranger still has a bit of a reputation scruples, at least he won't bully the weak.

But these tired people are really not taboo - they don't farm well, all they think about every day is to touch a little bit of east and grab a little bit of west, they will have a hippie smile when they meet hard stubble, and they will bully and bully when they meet weak......

Of course, the line between the two ...... The division is not very clear.

For example, Mr. Han Gaozu in later generations - it is difficult to tell whether this buddy and his brothers are considered rangers or tired people...... Don't look at Liu Bang as a serious businessman, but the things that this thing has done, I'm afraid it can't be compared to the word 'chivalry'......

As for the other so-called doormen, absconding criminals, prodigals, etc...... In short, there is one thing in common - the unstable factor of society!

The nobles hired such a group of people to go to Lingnan to die...... It really made Xiong Wuliang elated!

If these more than 30,000 rangers and tired people can all be thrown in Lingnan, the level of grassroots governance in Chu is estimated to be on a higher level......

Wonderful!

Kill more than one stone!

Zhao Hua smiled and stroked his beard, shaking his head: "It's just the beginning!" ”

"Wait until the nobles see the fertile land of Lingnan with their own eyes...... We will definitely step up our efforts! ”

"At that time, there will be more than 30,000 people in the pioneer group!"

Xiong Wuliang nodded again and again, glanced at Zhao Hua, and smiled sinisterly......

……

Chu's plan to expand to the south can be described as vast...... The nobles rushed to tell each other, buy armor, and march south in high spirits...... Of course, such a movement can't hide the spies sent by the Heavenly Kingdom to lurk in the Chu State.

Make it known to everyone!

More than 30,000 pioneer regiments marched south, and garrison officials from all over the country were ordered by Xiong Wuliang to let them go all the way.

According to the map given by Xiong Wuliang, the pioneer group arrived all the way to [Cangwu North], and cut down trees on the spot to build a camp - more than 30,000 people were vigorous, cutting down on a large scale, making a mess in the mountains.

The so-called pioneering, the means are also very simple and crude.

Logging and building houses are on a rampage, and then roads are built and farmland is cleared...... If you can burn it with a fire, you will burn it all out with a fire, and then send people to slowly clean up and level the land.

Because of the lack of a unified command, the pioneer regiments were also in the way - today you robbed me of water, tomorrow I 'borrowed' his food...... There was a lot of trouble.

And none of these people are good stubbles - as mentioned earlier, they are all rangers and tired people, and it is not surprising that they will fight if they disagree.

Fortunately, the pioneer groups almost emptied the families of the nobles, so they were basically led by the family leaders themselves - the vast majority of them were more or less capable talents. Therefore, although there is a lot of friction between hundreds of pioneer groups, the overall progress of land reclamation is also extremely fast!

With the efforts of tens of thousands of people, what poisonous insects, beasts, and towering trees...... It's all a joke!

Burn!

Attack!

Leveling the farmland!

Build roads!

Build a canal!

Qu Yanghou said - whoever opens up the land belongs to whom.

The pioneer group is full of energy, not only in terms of speed, but also in terms of quality...... With sufficient manpower, material and financial resources, coupled with super subjective initiative, the progress of Lingnan's 'land reclamation' was unexpected, even Xiong Wuliang, who was far away in Yingdu.

……

Qi country, the outskirts of Linzi.

On the official road, there was an old beggar in tattered clothes, dragging a lame leg, walking step by step...... It looks rather miserable.

Pedestrians and caravans saw it from afar, and they all furrowed their eyebrows in disgust.

The old beggar was also amused—he might have been whipped before, so whenever a car passed by, the lame old man squatted obediently beside the road to make way for the car.

When the carriage and horses drove over, the old lame man continued to trek hard against the billowing smoke and dust on the official road.

When he was tired of walking, he took out a dirty cake with black finger prints from his bosom, took a precious bite, and then put it back in his arms...... If he was thirsty, he walked to the farmland on the edge of the official road and prayed to the farmer for a bowl of well water.

Fortunately, the people of the Warring States period are simple, and for such a poor old man, the simple peasant will still give him water, and if he meets a kind-hearted person, he can also give two mouthfuls of coarse grain.

"It's so old, it's evil." A farmer was holding a farm tool, looking at the bitter back of the old lame, and said with feeling.

"I don't have any children and grandchildren to take care of ......"

"Ahem, it's probably crazy!" The peasants shook their heads, feeling that they had regained their strength, and lost interest in the back of the old lame man in tattered clothes, and lowered their heads and continued to work.

There are more and more pedestrians and business travelers on the official roads, which is obviously a symbol of entering the bustling area.

In the distance, the old lame man saw the two big characters of Qi on the city wall-

'Linzi'.

On Zhao Ju's old and swarthy old face, two lines of clear tears slowly crossed, and two clear furrows rushed out on his mud-stained cheeks.

Oh my God! O earth!

One year! One year!

Who knows how I've been this year!

……

(Three more!) Surprised, surprised? ）
