One thousand and ninety-seventh section blackmail (1)(1/2)

Winter goes and spring comes.

The sun shines on the earth again.

The ice and snow began to melt, and the once frozen river water is now flowing again.

The sound of gurgling water sounds throughout the mountain streams and canyons.

Countless small rivers are flooding.

The Tianshan Pass, which was once closed by snow, finally began to unblock again as the snow melted.

Tatta...

The sound of horse hooves rang in the canyon.

Holding the flag of the Hun envoy, dozens of Huns carefully crossed the canyon between Weili and Yan She, and re-entered the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains.

They approached Licheng, Duqu, Weili Kingdom, with fear.

This city was captured by the Han army in the war last year. After the war, the Han army left about 300 people to guard it. Then, Wang Mang, the protector of the Western Regions, took a fancy to the excellent strategic location here.

He then chose the capital of the Western Regions Protectorate here.

In this way, the canal and the lumber can form a strategic horn to protect each other.

After a whole winter of construction and emergency repairs, Qulicheng City Defense has basically been repaired.

Wang Mang even brought several bed crossbows from Yumen Pass and fixed them to the western and northern city walls of Quli as a heavy firepower point.

At the same time, he gathered the military and civilians of Wei Li, and supported a prince of Wei Li in Quli City. With his call, he rebuilt the Wei Li Kingdom.

However, the current Yuli Kingdom is already a political system under the jurisdiction of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, under the jurisdiction of the Great Honglu Kingdom and the Protectorate of the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty.

It lost almost all other power except retaining the kingdom's airs.

Including taxation, defense, and diplomacy.

Wang Mang, the Western Regions Protector, personally took charge of this place and "guided" the people of Weili for a whole winter.

With his superb skills, the old Jinwu led the people of Wei Li to a new path with his "successful guidance", "working hard and not avoiding difficulties".

In just one winter, most of the nobles in the Weili Kingdom "died violently" and "deathed in an emergency."

Moreover, before these people died, they held the hand of the Protector Wang Mang and said in pain: "The foreign ministers did not understand the king's way and did not know the great righteousness. When they met the Protector, they knew the importance of benevolence and righteousness, the great etiquette, and the unworthy foreign ministers, please allow their families to move to Chang'an to nourish the sages of the emperor and educate China..."

It was naturally difficult for Wang Mang to refuse, so he followed suit and fulfilled the wishes of these Yuli nobles who "respected China".

He sent someone to send his family's wife, sons and nephews to Chang'an.

These people were really moved when they left.

I was moved and cried, and it was true and unpretentious.

So, Wang Mang successfully accepted the property, land, manor, livestock and pastures left by these nobles after they left.

Then, Yuli was divided into two counties.

At the foot of the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, Guiyi County, Qulicheng area is Shouyi County.

Wang Mang then confiscated all the land, manors, livestock, property, etc. of these people.

Then the people and slaves rented to Yuli were rented to them, and only 50% of their income was charged to them as rent tax.

This is really a benevolent government!

The people of Yuli moved the world and forgot about King Wei Li and their former masters at the first time.

When these Huns approached Quli City, they were shocked by everything in front of them - the entire neighborhood of Quli City had turned into farmland.

Officials of the Han Dynasty took their men and horses to shuttle through the period and guided the Weili people to sow seeds.

There were also cavalry patrolling the periphery and guarding the situation.

These cavalry soon discovered the approaching Huns, quickly formed a battle formation and leaned over.

The officer in charge even shouted from a distance in the Huns: "Who is coming?"

"According to the orders of the Great Huns' Sun-Chasing King, Zuo Xian King, and the great Sun-Moon lovers, we are ordered to come here to visit the general of your country and submit a letter to our lord..." The Hun envoy shouted quickly.

When the Han army officers heard this, they were not surprised - the Han and the Huns had been in contact for a hundred years, and it was common for them to interact with each other.

Even in the Yuan Ding, the messengers interacted very frequently with each other.

So, he rushed forward and asked, "Is there any token that can prove your identity?"

The messenger immediately took out a gold jewelry from his arms, a golden wolf head symbolizing the identity of the Twin Clan royal family.

The officer took it over and looked at it, immediately smiled, bowed and said, "Emister, please wait and allow me to report to the Protector!"

Since ancient times, China has been very polite to its envoys.

…………………………………………

Juyan's spring is very beautiful!

After the snow melted, the road was revealed.

In the fields of the fields, people began to produce spring plowing.

Zhang Yue took out the prepared corn seeds from the space and have been allocated.

A total of about 2,000 stones of corn seeds were all bred in the space for more than ten generations, and in this winter, Zhang Yue specially strengthened his drought resistance.

At the cost, Zhang Yue consumed all the jade fruits he had accumulated (mainly for breeding, he used most of the land in the entire space to sow corn in winter, and ripened the corn more than once to harvest enough seeds).

However, the results were gratifying, not only did they get up to 2,000 stones of corn seeds!

The yield per mu of these corn after harvesting in the space is as high as twelve or three stones per mu!

Of course, according to Xinfeng's experience, the output in the outside world must be reduced by at least half!

There is no way, space is the result of optimization.

However, the outside world is that there are no pesticides, no chemical fertilizers, and there is no scientific management and seedling cultivation.

It is natural to reduce production.

However, even if the yield is reduced by half, the average per mu yield should be conservatively estimated to reach six stones, or even more.

Compared to delaying the daily life, the highest yield per mu is only a level of two stones, which is a miracle!

The only pity is that these seeds are not only supplied to Guyan sowing, but also left half of them for Hehuang, and also reserves for space breeding.

Therefore, there are some restrictions on the sowing area of ​​space millet.

At present, at most, about 100,000 mu of seeds can be sown in Juyan and Hehuang respectively.

Fortunately, Zhang Yue can also sow seeds and cultivate space versions of alfalfa, poplar, sand willow, and shrubs.

He even found a wetland plant in Juyan's wetland - Lu Wei to cultivate it.

At the same time, Zhang Yue also ordered people to fish crucian carp and carp from the black water and weak water, and then release them to Juyanzeli to strengthen Juyanze's fish and lay the foundation for future fish farming - Juyanze, which stretches for hundreds of miles, wetlands, lakes and rivers. As long as the development is good, the future of the fishery will have great potential!

In addition, Xinfeng's business travelers have also begun to arrive in Juyan and Hehuang one after another.

They brought new agricultural tools from Xinfeng - including curved plows, carts, sickles, hoes, and shovels.

Although the farm tools currently shipped, especially the curved plow, basically flowed to Hehuang (the second generation of nobles, second generation of officials, and second generation of riches are rich and have high profits).

But Zhang Yue used his influence to intercept about a hundred curved plows to Juyan.

With the addition of these curved plows, Juyan's spring plowing production work was guaranteed at once.

Now, it is almost guaranteed that the spring sowing season will not be delayed.

After inspecting the spring farming work in Juyan Gesai Group again, Zhang Yue returned to Heicheng Senei.

"Have the heavy snow in the Western Regions melted?" After returning to the city, Zhang Yue was concerned about the weather in the Western Regions first.

"Report to the lord, there is no relevant report on the Protector of the King...." Tian Shui replied: "However, there is a Chang'an envoy coming to report. Your Majesty may intend to move Captain Fan to the Protector of Munan..."

"Mayor Munan?" Zhang Yue listened and smiled: "Is Empress Huo finally willing to let Brother Fan move?"

"This is a good thing!"

Fan Mingyou's ability, courage and pattern should not be limited by a Qiang-Guangzhou Captain.

He should have a bigger stage.

only……

Zhang Yue was really surprised that Huo Guangneng made this decision.

Especially when operating Fan Mingyou went to Munan...

This matter itself is worth intriguing.

However, Zhang Yue was far away from Chang'an, and now he has officially received the emperor's edict. As General Ying Yang, he was also the governor of Bingzhou and guarded the Yandu lieutenant, and was granted the power to conquer, fight against thieves, and quell the chaos.

In fact, Zhang Yue now has the same authority as Li Guangli in the past.

He can even plan and decide on the war on his own - if he doesn't need to ask Chang'an for funds and resources, he can start a war at any time.

In addition, the emperor directly authorized him, granting him the right to act cheaply in the Western Regions and the Mobei region.
