Wang Xizhi came out of Liu Tai's Han Palace, and happened to see Wang Du walking at the gate.

When Wang Du saw Wang Xizhi coming out, he hurriedly came up and said, "Yi Shao, you finally came out, it seems that King Han agreed with you!" ”

Seeing that Wang Du was concerned, Wang Xizhi said cheerfully: "The king allowed me to move my father's coffin, but I also forgot about it. It's just that I'm afraid I'm going to bother you for a while! ”

"What are you talking about?" Wang Du smiled calmly, "It's not me you're bothering, it's Zheng Luo." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked all the way towards Zheng Luo's residence in Yecheng.

Of course, not long after the two left, Liu Tai left the Han Palace and immediately went to the Internal Affairs Department.

At the same time, Liu Tai's inner servants also immediately summoned to the mansions of the important ministers who were named.

Although in order to curb Chu Yu's tireless overtime, it led to involution, so by the specified time, the ministers who originally worked in it had basically gone to the fullest.

But even then, there will be people who will stay on duty and be responsible for dealing with any accidents that may arise.

When Liu Tai came to the Internal Affairs Department, he saw that Wen Qiao was already waiting inside, obviously he was on duty today.

"I've seen the king!" When Wen Qiao saw Liu Tai coming, he immediately saluted Liu Tai.

Liu Tai nodded, and then said, "Wang Dun is the opposite?!" Is the message confirmed! ”

"Hmm!" Wen Qiao nodded and said, "Because of Wang Dun's actions, Gou Xi also responded, saying that he would defend the majesty of the Jin Court and crack down on the juniors, so he directly dispatched the army to fight Xu Gong!" ”

"He's really good at taking chances!" Liu Tai immediately understood when he heard Wen Qiao's words.

Gou Xi has endured it for so many years, in addition to needing time to accumulate strength, it is more important to wait for an opportunity for Sima Rui not to support Xu Di, otherwise he is afraid that Xu Di will make a comeback this time.

The historical Xu Shrine was wiped out by the Jin court because of its two-faced and capricious nature.

But now Xu Niche doesn't have the conditions to be two-sided and three-stabbed at all, which makes Xu Niche become Sima Rui's shield to isolate Gou Xi.

And Gou Xi wanted to kill Xu Gong not in a day or two, he couldn't find an opportunity before, but now he finally found an opportunity, so he naturally won't let it go.

However, with Gou Xi's attack on Xu Gong as evidence, Liu Tai believed that Wang Dun's rebellion might be true.

"Let's make a dozen copies of these materials, and everyone will send one after a while!" Liu Tai said to Wen Qiao.

"I'm going to prepare the meeting materials, as well as tea and snacks!" Wen Qiao replied to Liu Tai.

Soon Wen Qiao ordered people to prepare, among which the tea was naturally the tea picked from Mount Tai, and the pastries were delicious made by the top pastry chefs, but if you copy the materials, you need to use movable type printing.

Well, the movable type has already been figured out.

To be more precise, after Caihou paper came out, at least engraving printing quickly became popular.

After all, no one can underestimate the wisdom of the people, when Cai Hou paper, a relatively cheap paper, becomes more circulating, then all supporting things will slowly develop with the wisdom of the people.

For the Chinese script, because it is not like English, only 26 letters are enough, so the movable type printing technology is not very strong demand now, because the engraving printing technology prints words, it has met the daily needs of the people.

Basically, most of the private inventions and creations are like this, and there is no mature scientific and technological system, and they only rely solely on the spontaneous inventions and creations of the people, which are basically based on pragmatism and inventions according to the needs of the market.

Therefore, famous enterprises can often play the role of 1 to 100, but the fundamental breakthrough of 0 to 1 requires genius invention and creation, or the national important weapon of the whole country resources to cooperate, not just because of the demand.

The movable type printing in front of him was naturally made by Liu Tai, because compared to the folk or scholars, there is no demand for movable type printing, but the most common thing in the routine consumption of Liu Tai's work is paper.

Because through the use of a large amount of paper, the corresponding efficiency can be improved, which may have worked in the street, there will be a little impression, one or two printers are not enough at all, and even some departments need to configure a special printer.

And now the movable type printing of the Department of the Interior is more of a printer, and everyone holds a copy of the material in their hands, which saves the time that these people need to send someone to copy it in person, but it only saves such a little time.

Of course, the best thing about movable type printing is to print newspapers, so that the country's decrees can directly reach the bottom, so that even the lowest level of readers have a sense of honor to participate in national affairs.

However, this matter still has to be postponed, because he pushed out something like a newspaper at this time, which is actually more helpful for the family to grasp the tongue, and even form a political group similar to the Donglin Party.

In contrast, Liu Tai hopes to wait until Wang Xizhi takes out the simplified Chinese characters, and then spreads them through the simplified Chinese newspapers, so as to increase the popularization of the literacy rate at the bottom.

Even for some remote areas that can't even be taken care of by themselves, maybe these precipitated newspapers will be used as teaching books by the local people.

Therefore, even if Liu Tai knows that movable type printing is only a bit extravagant to improve the operation efficiency of the office for himself, he will use it now, after all, this is to make this technology pass on smoothly.

Soon, everyone arrived at the Interior Hall one by one, and they sat down in their places.

Refreshments and materials have been placed on the Interior Office, and almost everyone can't help but ponder after reading this information.

Liu Tai looked at the crowd, "Wang Dun is reversed, you all tell us what you think?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Wen Qiao came out and said, "Let me tell me about the current situation."

Our main scouts are in Yuzhou, Sizhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

Wang Dun's rebellion, because Wang Dun was far away in Jingzhou, our scouts did not find out the news there.

It was only because Xuzhou Gou Xi sent troops to Xu Shrine in the name of protecting the Jin Dynasty that we learned the news.

Therefore, under mutual corroboration, the news of Wang Dun's rebellion should be true!"

"Maybe the Langya Wang clan has long been willing to rebel, so they sent Wang Xizhi to my Han to do a good job of the back road!"

At this time, Chu Yu opened his mouth, after all, no matter what he said, Wang Xizhi's going north can be regarded as proof to some extent.

"And Gou Xi and Xu Gong fought, although they also wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make it bigger, but more than that, I still want to survive in this turmoil that he can't figure out!" Xi Jian said with emotion,

Gou Xi stayed away from the Jin Dynasty court, and he was afraid that he didn't know why Wang Dun would rebel at all, so he decisively held high the banner of the Jin court and took this opportunity to solve Xu Gong first.

not only expressed his position not to participate in the civil strife in the Jin court, but also waited until the civil strife was over, probably who represented the Jin court, so Gou Xi would be where he would stand! ”

Liu Tai was stunned when he heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, Gou Xi couldn't say that he was wrong in making this choice, after all, it was so safe.

"Since there is such evidence, then I think that Wang Dun's betrayal of Jin should be true, then how should we choose!"

Liu Tai looked at the crowd: "When the ancestor died, because the Jin court handed over safely, we chose to wait for the Yongji Canal to be built."

But now that Wang Dun has rebelled against the Jin Dynasty and the Jin court is in civil strife, how should we choose!? ”

Hearing Liu Tai's doubts, everyone couldn't help but talk to each other.

After all, this time is different from last time, although Zu Ti is a famous general, but he died, at most, the upper limit of the Jin army was restricted.

But this time Wang Dun rebelled within the Sima clan, which is probably the opportunity that Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition was looking for.

If this is all let go, I am afraid that the opportunity is really not to be lost, and it will not come again.

"Boqi? How long will it take for the Yongji Canal to be repaired! Chu Yu asked Cao Wei for the first time.

"For a month, we have implemented a three-shift system to rush work day and night!" Cao Wei said,

"It's a bit unrealistic to want them to speed up the progress of the project next, after all, even if they are forced to work, they have to rest!"

"Extend the working hours of each shift by two hours, so that you can buy more time by working three shifts!"

Liu Tai looked at Cao Wei and said, "I will issue you a salt ticket of 100 million yuan, I don't care how you use it, but I want to see the entire project completed ten days ahead of schedule for this 100 million yuan of overtime expenses."

Uncle Cao, you can go and ask those conscripts if they want to rest. ”

"Rest? What a rest! Talents who have not contributed to the Han need to rest, and the conscripts under my command are all the pillars of the Han, isn't it just two more hours of conscription, not to mention the subsidy, even if it is not given, shouldn't the people of the Han Dynasty contribute to the Han! ”

Cao Wei said solemnly and decisively.

Liu Tai couldn't help but sigh when he looked at Cao Wei's appearance, and turned his head to Xi to join the army and said, "Chief Meng, you send the military historians into the conscription system of the Yongji Canal, and let the military historians tell these people and ask them to speed up the construction of the Yongji Canal."

Let them know that those who built the Yongji Canal will give them night shifts to subsidize, so that they will have no regrets and work hard for the unification of the Han Dynasty! ”

When Cao Wei heard Liu Tai's words, his face changed, and he said to Liu Tai with a slight complaint, "King Han, you don't believe me!" ”

"Uncle Cao, this is about my Great Han Southern Expedition, and I have to act cautiously.

It is still the old rule, the military history system still does not interfere with the original system, but simply records and solves the doubts of the people. Liu Tai looked at Cao Wei and said,

"I believe that Uncle Cao, you can complete this task, right!?"

"Please rest assured that King Han, with money and food in hand, I will definitely not drag the Han to retreat!" Cao Wei said quite seriously.

"Hmm!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "If the Yongji Canal can be opened in only about twenty days, then my proposition is to fight, still implement our last strategy, not to destroy the Jin Dynasty at once, but at least to seize the Central Plains!" ”

"If that's the case, you need to inform General Zhao An's army that it's going south!" Xi Jian said, "But I'm afraid that the jerky stored in the north will be insufficient!" ”

"If there is not enough dried meat, then you can only use dried fish!" Liu Tai said calmly,

"Originally, I was going to let him go to Yongji Canal, directly coerce Xingyang with Wang Sang, and enter Yuzhou, so now I can only change my way and go to Qingzhou with me.

The dried fish in Qingzhou is not as hungry as meat, but now that the Jin court is in civil strife, he has to find his own food in the rear of the Jin court! ”

After thinking about it, everyone also agreed with Liu Tai's idea, at least there was a backup plan that could be brought up immediately.

"In this way, then we will also enter the state of mobilization of the army!" Chu Yu took a deep breath.

Although he is already familiar with this mode of preparing grain and grass in the back, Liu Tai is responsible for conquering the world.

But this time, Chu Yu still said to Liu Tai, "Then how many soldiers are we going to mobilize this time, and how far we are going!" ”

"Wang Sang's army of 20,000, Zhou Ping's army of 30,000, Zhao An's army of 20,000, and my headquarters of 30,000 people, a total of 100,000 soldiers are needed." Liu Tai calculated.

In addition, there are about 50,000 soldiers who are used as reserves, and they can actually only raise 150,000 soldiers, but in order to support these 150,000 soldiers, there are nearly five times as many soldiers.

Fortunately, the soldiers don't need to spend money to raise them, otherwise Liu Tai feels that he is not far from the poor soldiers.

Hearing Liu Tai's words, Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, don't look at Liu Tai's soldiers are only 100,000, but in fact, the various types of troops serving the 100,000 soldiers are afraid that there are several times more than them.

The only thing that is fortunate is that the Zhao An Legion, because they are operating behind enemy lines, they are relatively free, and they only need to complete strategic tasks, and they are completely free to play.

But again, before they could join up with Liu Tai's army or complete their mission, Chu Yu only needed to prepare the first batch of food for them, and then basically did not need to worry about their logistics.

Because when they arrive at the rear of the Jin court, they will solve the supply problem by themselves, and as an army that has come all the way from the rebel army, they are too familiar with how to find rich households for supplies.

And if you want to exterminate Zhao An's army, to be honest, as long as Zhao An is careful himself, it is relatively rare for the entire army to be wiped out at least in this area of the Central Plains.

There is no way, the terrain in the Central Plains is flat, which is more suitable for cavalry combat, which is Zhao An's biggest advantage.

As long as he retreated when he felt that there was not enough food to eat, Jin Ting had no way to stop it at all.

"I immediately started to dispatch grain to Jijun and Liyang, this route is familiar, but Taishan, it is too far away from Yecheng, I can't directly dispatch grain to the past, someone needs to go to Yanzhou for scheduling!" Chu Yu said to Liu Tai.

"Give it to Dao Hui!" Liu Tai said calmly, "If I remember correctly, Daohui was born in Gaoping County, Yanzhou!" ”

"The king has a good memory, and the minister is from Gaoping!" Xi Jian replied decisively when he heard Liu Tai's words.

"Hmm!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "So our next goal is to swallow Sizhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou east of the Yellow Tiger Prison Pass, clear the obstacles of the Jin army's Tiger Prison, and if we successfully take the three states, we can even threaten Xuzhou...... All in all, I'm going to take the Central Plains! ”

"Your Ministers obey!"
