Chapter 588: The Island

Fu Pi was placed in the Shangwu Hall and studied with the princes.

Li Yue was worried that he was not used to it at first, but he quickly adapted to being with his peers.

Fu Pi is smart and studious, generous and benevolent, and Li You, Li Lun, Li Yu, Li Fu and several princes quickly got along, and the crown prince Li Jian was quite interested in this proton of the same age, and repeatedly looked for him to play.

Li Yue simply asked Fu Pi to study, and worshiped Liu Shang, the most knowledgeable person in the Liang Kingdom, as his teacher.

The proton was sent, and the national letter was also sent, but Shangyong and Hetao were still pulling.

Fu Jian said for a while that the people were migrating, and for a while there were displaced people making trouble, and for a while the people were reluctant to let the Qin army go......

It's kind of like that.

Of course Li Yue knew his thoughts, Fu Jian was extremely persistent in expanding the territory, how could he easily spit out the meat he ate?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the soldiers of the Western Front rested for a few months to prepare for the future big war.

At the same time, he sent an envoy to reprimand Fu Jian.

Although Fu Jian is young and has a very thick skin, he can drag it out, and he comes up with all kinds of reasons to excuse himself, either crying poor or all kinds of difficulties, and asking Daliang to give him some time, anyway, he will not return the land.

Li Yue didn't expect him to really return it.

After all, the land still has to be fought for by the sword.

After such a round trip, the autumn harvest has arrived in a blink of an eye.

The 20,000 cavalry of LĂź Guang and Huan Yi returned to Yecheng without any gain.

For the sake of safety, the two did not dare to chase deeply, and they did not have much grain and grass with them, so they could only return.

One of the highlights of this year's autumn harvest is Liaodong.

In the Western Han Dynasty, Liaodong had 18 counties under its jurisdiction and 14 counties under Liaoxi County, with a huge territory.

Although many places in Liaodong at this time were swamps, these did not bother Zhou Lian, and he mobilized slaves to fill in some of the small fields, and the cultivated fields created were extremely fertile.

The output of grain and vegetables grown is more than 40% more than that of the Central Plains.

Coupled with the fields cultivated by the Yan Kingdom, not counting the harvest of the common people, the tuntian of the slaves alone harvested more than 3 million stone millet.

Grain is secondary, and the key products in Liaodong are extremely abundant.

A large number of leather goods, medicinal herbs, and precious timber were imported into the Central Plains by sea.

Historically, the development of North America and the eastward expansion of Tsarist Russia were driven by the fur trade, and there was naturally no shortage of people where there were interests.

After the restoration of the five-baht coin, it greatly stimulated the commerce of the Liang State.

Liaodong also prospered, and the powerful could not ban the land population, so they also focused on business.

Organize caravans by yourself, lease ships from the Hainan Aviation Division, and go deep into Liaodong.

The wild people in the deep mountains and old forests are also a big source of slaves, strong and strong, as long as they are full, a slave who can withstand two or three slaves from the Baekje Wa Kingdom will become a sought-after commodity.

Although there were floods in several places this year, they did not affect the overall harvest.

In addition to the bumper grain harvest, the cattle and sheep of Zimengchuan were also slaughtered, as well as dried fish from coastal places such as Cangzhou and Qingzhou, which were transported into Yecheng one after another.

This year is the most stable year since the fall of Qianzhao, although there are troops, there is basically no big war.

Seeing that there was no oil and water on the grassland, this year's hunt was canceled, and Li Yue asked the soldiers to take turns to rest and go home to accompany their parents, wives and children.

Li Yue was also about to give himself a holiday, but unexpectedly an urgent report came from the East China Sea.

The sea ship encountered a storm and the ships were scattered, but Lu Xun's sea ship drifted with the tide and found an island, located between Baekje and Wa Kingdom, and the local people called Tamna.

Lu Xunshi was born in the family, and he could see the importance of this place at a glance.

Baekje to the north, Silla to the east, and Wa to the south.

If a military port can be built in this place to supply the transit and supply of the navy, you can use this island to attack the three countries in the future.

At the end of the sheet, a map is attached that roughly depicts the location of Tamna.

Li Yueyi compares, isn't it Jeju Island in later generations?

Although Liang vigorously developed naval navigation, it was still in the exploration stage, and the sea ships often encountered wind and waves, and it was not a big problem to plunder Baekje and Goguryeo, but it was beyond the reach of plundering the Wa Kingdom and Silla.

If there is Tamna as a transit point, everything is not a problem.

Li Yue remembered that the Wa Kingdom was rich in gold and silver, and it seemed that it was on the big island of Kyushu south of Tamna, and it was not far away anyway.

Lu Xun, this kid is really a lucky general, no wonder he can break hands with Emperor Wu of Song in history, and in history, their gang of pirates also occupied the Zhoushan Islands and plundered Jiangdong......

"Promote Lu Xun to be the governor of Tamna, the governor of Henghai, stay in the local area, be responsible for the construction of the military port city, and Liaodong materials will fully support Tamna." Li Yue was in a good mood.

The national fortune is coming, and it can't be stopped, and what is lacking is coming.

What was most lacking in the Central Plains was gold, silver, copper and other metals, and with the mineral deposits of the Wa State, it could further support the five-baht coin system of the Liang State.

The five-baht coin is tied to gold, and the more gold, the more stable and developed the economy will be.

But when I think about it, in fact, these things have been around since ancient times, but few people look up at the ocean.

China has always valued land power over sea power.

Only Li Yue, who has crossed over from later generations, knows the importance of the ocean.

Even if you don't go to the South Seas, the East China Sea must be firmly held in your hands, and the girder must at least open this head.

"Tamna is indeed in an excellent location, with this place as the base, twice the result with half the effort, the minister suggested sending an envoy to investigate the situation of the Japanese country, or it can achieve miraculous results." Cui Hong arched his hand.

Sending an envoy is an exchange, what grade is the Wa State, and do you want Li Yue to send an envoy to find it first?

Li Yue would never do this kind of self-lowering thing.

A big country must have the confidence and majesty of a big country, and the best way to communicate in these years is the sword.

When Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were envoys from the Wa Kingdom into China, and the Guangwu Emperor thought they were short, so he gave them the name Wa Guo, and also rewarded a gold seal, which was passed down to future generations.

To Cao Wei, Emperor Wei Ming was named "King of Wei and Wei" again......

The more communication there is, the more people this group develops.

You must know that the Japanese service is called "Wu Fu" in the Japanese country, and it is self-evident where it was passed from in the past.

"The envoys don't need to, I don't plan to establish diplomatic relations with them, and the people here will all be my slaves in the future!"

It is not difficult to see from the map that once the Wa Kingdom rises, it will definitely covet the mainland, which is determined by geostrategy.

Three hundred years later, in the Tang Dynasty, they dared to launch the Battle of Baijiangkou.

Li Yue is not interested in occupying this land, it is not cost-effective, and it will be built after occupying it, which objectively promotes their development, and there is still so much undeveloped land in Middle Earth, Li Yue has no energy.

With this effort, it is better to vigorously operate Xuansu and occupy the entire Liaodong.

In fact, there was not much arable land in the Wa Kingdom, so the Chinese Dynasty had little interest in it, and the only advantage was that there were many gold and silver deposits.

In the future, the Wa Kingdom can be used as a sewer for the girders, plundering manpower and minerals, and nourishing China.

The rise of a nation and a nation will inevitably be accompanied by the suffering of other nations.

Great benevolence is not benevolent, Li Yue is only responsible for Huaxia.
