I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the imperial court’s attitude towards the uncles has been much better recently.
Shao Xun submitted reports in his own name or in the name of others for the establishment of the district, the change of title of the clan, and the appointment of officials, all of which were approved and approved.
First of all, the matter of appointing the king of the city to the king of Puyang, deposing the city state, and Gaoping state was approved as soon as possible.
The resettlement work of 5,700 soldiers from the government has also started smoothly, and some people have even started plowing in the spring.
As a result, Gaoping State will become the second largest county in Yanzhou, second only to Mount Tai.
After Yu Zhi took office as the prefect, his first task was to put the already somewhat paralyzed county government into operation and then to control it deeply.
"A good son-in-law is worried about the court, and the court is also worried about you." Outside Xuchang City, Yu Chen, who was about to go to Liang State to take office, said: "Liang Fen, the governor of several counties in the north, is separated from the court by several counties in Luonan, so it is convenient for people.
It’s just convenient for oneself.”
"Haha!" Shao Xun couldn't help laughing.
My father-in-law's words are also interesting.
Generally speaking, Jingzhou is still the territory of the imperial court, with relatively high purity.
After Wang Rushen's death, Liang Fen took over Wancheng, and the vast number of Guanxi refugees in Xiangyang became a powerful force.
Wang Cheng also returned to Xiangyang from Xiakou to clean up the mess.
If the imperial court wanted to run the south, it would be impossible to make the relationship with Shao Xun too tense.
Especially in the first month of the year, this high-profile wedding was well-known far and wide. Even the Huns would know that Shao Xun had merged with the Yingchuan gentry. The Yingchuan gentry had always been called the same name as the Runan gentry, and in the west of Yuzhou
In this half of the film, the imperial court really doesn't have much influence.
"In addition, the imperial court may also want to attack Hongnong and push Wang Mi westward. Xin'an is very close to Luoyang, so it is really dangerous." Yu Chen said again.
"Does the imperial court have food?" Shao Xun said: "Although the Forbidden Army has been replenished many times, there are only more than 20,000 people. How can we fight?"
"I don't know either." Yu Chen sighed.
The manpower that the Luoyang court can directly utilize is getting less and less, basically Henan, Xingyang, and Shangluo counties.
They are now selected from the refugees living in various places in Henan to join the Forbidden Army.
If this selection criteria were put in place ten years ago, people would probably be shocked for a long time.
But Shao Xun is too lazy to take care of it. Let the court do whatever it wants, as long as they don't get destroyed. He still needs to join everyone and pretend to be united under the banner of the Jin Dynasty.
"Will there be any more grain arriving in Beijing this year?" Shao Xun asked.
"There should be." Yu Chen said: "I heard that the imperial court tacitly allowed King Langya to intervene in Jiangzhou's political affairs in exchange for money and grain to enter the capital."
Money and food are really the top priority.
Although the population of Luoyang is decreasing year by year and the consumption of food is not as great as before, the Xiongnu's destruction is becoming increasingly fierce, and the self-sustainability of Luoyang's surroundings is declining day by day.
Without the input of external money and food, Luoyang would not be able to survive for even half a year.
Just a year ago, Wang Xuan even asked him privately how much grain he had withheld in recent years.
Shao Xun told him the truth, it was about 600,000 dendrobium. He also borrowed about 400,000 dendrobium, which amounted to a total of one million "cheated" from the court.
Wang Xuan asked if he could pay some back first, but Shao Xun refused because he was also short of food.
After all, last year's war was fought in Henan. Even if it won militarily, it suffered economic and political losses.
His Silver Spear and Yi Cong Second Army rely entirely on more than 30 counties in Luonan, Xiangcheng, Yingchuan, and Runan, which provide more than one million bushels of grain and 30,000 to 40,000 bolts of silk every year, and they also have to graze their own livestock.
, raising fish, growing vegetables, and picking fruits to solve part of the gap - as for the equipment consumption, half of it is produced by himself, and the other half relies on him asking for it from the court.
Yuzhou's finances were also very difficult and tight, and they really had no spare capacity. In the end, they could only promise Wang Xuan that if the harvests in Chenjun, Nanton, and Xincai could go smoothly this year, he would pay back two to three hundred thousand yuan after the autumn harvest.
Dendrobium grain.
When it comes to Langya King Sima Rui, if we say he has no ambition, Shao Xun would dare to write his name upside down.
As one of the remnants of Sima Yue, Sima Rui's shogunate relied politically on the Nandu scholars, and economically and militarily on the powerful families of Jiangdong.
Although he himself is also trying to find ways to establish a military system independent of Jiangdong's wealthy families, it seems that it is not enough at present.
The victory in Shouchun and the entry into Pengcheng relied on the old Soochow clan and the new rich tribe.
This separatist force is really strange. Shao Xun felt that without the persistence of Sima Rui and the Nandu scholars, would the Jiangdong wealthy families be interested in expansion?
A motorcade drove out of Xuchang City, loaded with all kinds of things.
Yu Chen looked at them and saw that they were all daily necessities and farm tools that he had purchased in Xuchang City, so he bowed and said, "My good son-in-law does not need to send them far, so I will go here."
After saying that, he looked to the other side.
Guanqiu, Yu Wenjun, mother and daughter were also saying goodbye, crying.
When Liang Guoshi took office this time, it was considered the hinterland of Yuzhou and there was no danger, so he took his family with him.
After saying goodbye, the two groups set out on their own journeys: Shao Xun went west to Yangzhai via Yingyin, and Yu Chen went east to Liangguo via Chenjun.
****
The number of Guangcheng Zetunding has gone up and down, and has recently remained at six camps with about 30,000 people (including a camp far away in Yangcheng County).
Among these 30,000 people, except for a few thousand unlucky ones, most of them have been replaced.
Those who performed well were transformed from slaves in the camp to soldiers in the camp or free citizens in their household registration.
Those who do not perform well can only continue to work here and wait for the next good opportunity to get lucky - such as moving out to serve as a soldier in the government.
Shitian, Lutian, military field, Caiguanzhuang...
Extending from Guangchengze to Liang County, and even southward to Luyang, thousands of hectares of fertile farmland were cultivated by these captives day after day, continuously producing grain, pasture, and raising a large number of livestock.
It can be said that it is these fields and the existence of prisoners that give Shao Xun the confidence to ask for and bargain with the Yingchuan nobles - even if you don't support me, I can rely on the savings in this area to support the shogunate in the short term and the army for a year and a half.
, and then smash you to pieces.
At the end of the first year, Shao Xun had arrived at Caiguanzhuang Nanyuan in Guangchengze.
The 6,000 soldiers from buildings 11 to 20 of the Silver Spear Army who escorted him started training on the spot.
The Silver Spear Army now has twenty buildings, with a total of twelve thousand people.
According to Shao Xun's latest plan, buildings 1 to 10 are organized into the left camp, led by Wang Queer, with Hou Feihu and Sun He as deputy commanders; buildings 11 to 20 are organized into the right camp, led by Jin Zhengzheng, led by Zhang Daniu and Xu Yu
Vice.
Lu Heigou fought too bravely during the Battle of Dongwuyang, and was injured by a stray arrow in the dark night. After lying in bed for several months, he finally returned with his life, but the root cause of the disease was left, and he was no longer suitable for high-intensity warfare.
Because he once had a name in Taixue, he was transferred to the post of Prime Minister of Ye County, Nanyang, and was called "Lu Rong" on the roster.
Of the 6,000 men in the Right Battalion, only the Eleven and Twelve Buildings participated in last year's battle to advance to Luoyang, and the rest had no combat experience.
In the last four buildings, the people couldn't even get enough iron armor. Except for officers above the corps commander, everyone else was only given leather armor.
This can only be raised slowly, and training is still important at this stage.
"The north and south gardens of Caiguanzhuang are both family properties." Shao Xun pointed to the half-frozen lake in the sun and said: "The north garden is cultivated by five thousand villagers, and the Jing brothers manage it with some villagers.
.There are currently nearly 3,800 dealers in Nanyuan, all of whom were elderly people who moved out of Luoyang Sanyuan a few years ago."
Yu Wenjun held his hand and looked at the frozen lake and vast farmland with curious eyes like a bird clinging to a human being.
She has entered the role of a wife. The two gardens in the north and south of Caiguanzhuang and Green Willow Garden are private properties of the Shaw family and require her, the mistress, to take care of them.
As her dowry, there is also a lot of land and tribes in Yanling, Nanton and other places, which also require her to assign people to take care of it.
The sixteen-year-old girl took over the burden of the family.
Shao Xun tightened the fur around her body and touched her head lovingly.
Yu Wenjun chuckled and raised his face.
Shao Xun kissed her, then hugged her and walked forward.
He felt a little bad, because the better Yu Wenjun was to him and the more attached he was, the more intolerable and guilty he felt.
This little girl is so clingy and very persistent and serious.
Before going to bed at night, she always asked if she felt comfortable just now. Shao Xun could tell that she was not particularly comfortable, but she always wanted to make her husband comfortable.
"What is that land over there?" Yu Wenjun pointed with his little hand, looking at the land surrounded by lakes and rivers like small islands, and asked curiously.
Shao Xun said calmly: "That's the land of Guangcheng Palace, called 'Duotian'. It used to be more than three hundred hectares, but I don't know how many it is now. Have you seen the houses over there? The people cultivating the Duotian."
Most of them come from Henan and Hanoi counties. Before Yongjia three years ago, rice was grown here. Winter wheat was planted last autumn, and after the harvest in May, rice should continue to be planted."
So Luonan is his important foundation.
When Puyang, Dongping, Jibei, Xingyang and other places cannot carry out normal agricultural production, and Chenliu, Gaoping, Jiyin, Taishan and even Chenjun, Liangguo and other places can only spring planting and autumn harvesting, including Guangchengze
However, the Luonan area has started to have three crops every two years.
From last year to the end of this year, people can harvest three crops of grain from one acre of land. Chenjun, Liangguo, Chenliu and other places can only harvest two crops. Those counties on the front line can only harvest half a crop. The difference is huge.
What's more, the yield per mu of rice-wheat rotation in Guangchengze is much higher than that of two-crop millet. This is a very stable and high-yield rear area.
"Is what Duotian harvests Guangcheng rice?" Yu Wenjun asked.
"You also know this?"
"Of course." Yu Wenjun chuckled and said: "Guangcheng rice is also very famous in Yingchuan. Husband, among the rewards you gave out during the New Year, there was Guangcheng rice. The eldest brother once brought a batch home, and our whole family
I’ve tasted it.”
"Oh, that's it." Shao Xun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Guangcheng Rice is indeed good."
"That mountain is Kongtong Mountain, right?"
"yes."
"I heard that there is Guangcheng Tang in the north of Kongtong Mountain. Husband, please take me to have fun."
"Don't make trouble, my husband is here for business." Shao Xun suddenly felt in his heart and said, "Last year Shitian and Lutian only planted one season of spring wheat. This year's spring millet planting will only take a few days. My husband has to go to the fields.
Work hard."
"Oh." Yu Wenjun knew that he was being willful, so he said, "Then I will bring water and food to my husband."
"Yeah." Shao Xun responded absently.
