Chapter 2430: Tao Gong returns to his home to stop the national policy
Jingkou, Beifu Army Headquarters, Zhenjun General’s Mansion.
Liu Yu was wearing a general's robe and armor, with a smile on his face, sitting upright as the commander of the Chinese army, looking at Tao Yuanming who was standing in the palace, while Meng Longfu stood handsomely behind him, standing on both sides.
The armor-clad generals of the Beifu all had bright smiles on their faces. They even looked at Tao Yuanming with a hint of reverence. This kind of look was not seen by this contemporary celebrity when he left the tent to say goodbye for the first time on his mission.
of.
Tao Yuanming held a festival in his right hand and was dressed in formal court attire, just like when he was on a mission. He looked at Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi, who was first on the left and sitting behind the desk with a feather fan and silk scarf, and said calmly: "Liu Zhenjun, belongs to
Fortunately, you have fulfilled your mission. The Lord of Qin, Yao Xing, has handed over the twelve counties of Nanyang to our Yongzhou Governor Lu Zong, and we have also given half a million shi of military rations as thanks. Qin's reply and the land resumption official document from the Lu Governor have been
Submit it to the imperial court, and my subordinates are here to report back to you."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "This time you were able to regain the land of the twelve counties of Nanyang without any blood. Mr. Tao has done the most great job. I will definitely report to the court and reward you for your great achievements this time. Mr. Tao, what do you want now?"
You can mention it to me, Liu Changshi will definitely record all your requests."
Tao Yuanming looked at Liu Muzhi and said: "Liu Changshi, I heard that during my mission this time, the imperial court has implemented a new national policy, which requires villagers from the Wudi in the south of the Yangtze River to immigrate to the north of the Yangtze River, reclaim wasteland and farmland, and run six
County, is this happening?"
Liu Muzhi frowned slightly, then smiled and said: "I didn't expect that Ambassador Tao was very well-informed when he was on a mission abroad. Raptor, was it you who told Ambassador Tao?"
Meng Longfu shook his head: "General Mo is just guarding Ambassador Tao all the way. As for the official documents from the court that come every few days, General Mo is not allowed to read them privately according to regulations and can only be sealed and presented to Ambassador Tao."
Tao Yuanming said: "Liu Changshi, you don't need to ask General Meng. I only heard about it when I arrived in Nanyang and assisted the Lu governor and the Qin general Yao Shao in handling the delivery matters. I was on a mission to the enemy country.
Naturally, these important news will not be transmitted to avoid leakage. It is precisely because of hearing this news that I rushed to the general of the army in a hurry, and did not even bother to return to the court."
Liu Yu softly said "Oh": "I wonder why Mr. Tao came here in such a hurry. I am not prepared at all. Today is a military meeting, and you are here. The matter of emigration to farmland in Jiangbei is indeed the result of these two
The top priority of the DPRK in the past few months is now known to the whole world. What does Mr. Tao have to say about this?"
Tao Yuan said clearly: "My subordinates came here at starry night this time to ask the general of the town army to take back the order with the common people in the world and the welfare of all people in mind."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression changed. Tan Daoji on the other side said in a deep voice: "Ambassador Tao, are you too tired from the journey and don't know what to say and what not to say? Immigrate to Jiangbei, but
It is a great thing that benefits all people. As soon as the national policy was announced, all the major families took the initiative to send experienced villagers and tenants to settle in Jiangbei. The imperial court also exempted them from ten years of tax and service. Now many people pass through the crossing from here to Jiangbei every day.
Everyone is smiling. Since the ambassador came by boat from Jiangling, he must have met many people who went to Jiangbei. Am I lying?"
Tao Yuanming sighed: "If you don't have long-term worries, you must have immediate worries. This national policy is to lure people to the dangerous six counties in Jiangbei with small profits. Now they are happy, but they have no idea that they are in danger. Once the war is fierce, they will be in danger."
, the six counties in Jiangbei are in danger of being destroyed. When that happens, how much they are grateful to the commander today, they will hate you so much then. Commander, this subordinate is thinking about your reputation for life, please.
Never go all the way to darkness."
A cold voice sounded from the side of the tent. A white-faced scholar in his twenties, with sparse features and handsome features said: "Mr. Tao may have exaggerated a bit. Since the Battle of Feishui, the six counties in Jiangbei have been 20 years old."
There have been no wars in the past years, but now our Jin Dynasty has strong troops and strong horse equipment, and the six counties in Jiangbei are as stable as Mount Tai. How can we talk about the dangers of war due to the ferocity of the troops?"
Tao Yuanming looked at the sound and smiled slightly: "This should be Xie Hui and Xie Xuanming, one of the younger generations of the Xie family, who is known as a talented person in the world. Didn't you join the army at Meng Danyang (Meng Chang is now Danyang Yin)?
Why are the generals and shogunate here?"
Xie Hui glanced at Liu Muzhi and said: "It is precisely because of this immigration incident that Fu Liang, Fu Canjun and I were seconded from Meng Danyang to handle official duties. These days, we are so busy every day that we drink
You don't even have the skills to do it, what you just said is an insult to our work."
Another man in his thirties, a lean and yellow-faced clerk in green clothes, said in a deep voice: "Mr. Tao, you are now the hero of the country, and you are also the object of admiration by our younger generation, but your words today really hurt me.
Wait, isn’t Liu Zhenjun’s order for the purpose of enriching the country and strengthening the people? Isn’t it the right thing for us to do together these days?”
Tao Yuanming sighed softly: "The last time I met Meng Danyang, I was full of praise for you two, saying that in time, you two will become the pillars of the country, and even if you are in the position of prime minister, he will not be surprised.
It's a pity that when I saw it today, I was still disappointed. With two talented people, don't you understand why for many years, the imperial court has not managed the six counties of Jiangbei on a large scale, but the aristocratic family would rather fight for a village in Wudi?
, a river is causing a lot of trouble, and a large area of wasteland in the north of the Yangtze River is left uncultivated?"
Xie Hui glanced at Liu Muzhi, whose fat face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and said coldly: "Xuanming, since Tao Gong asks you this, just say whatever comes to mind.
If you really think that what you have done is a just thing that benefits the country and the people, you should make a clear argument with Tao Gong."
Xie Hui saluted Liu Muzhi, stood up, walked to Tao Yuanming, and said, "Mr. Tao, the reason you mentioned is probably because you are afraid that barbarians from the north will go south and ruin Jiangbei's business.
But the juniors don’t think so.”
"In the old Jin Dynasty, the Jing and Yang families fought against each other, and the noble families also fought for power. There were even conspiracy organizations like the mafia that interfered with it. They didn't want to serve the country or regain their lost territory. They were just content with the status quo. Naturally, they would not go there.
Work hard to manage the six counties in Jiangbei, because before the troops and horses are moved, grain and grass go first. If you don't accumulate grain in the fields in the six counties in Jiangbei, then if you want to send troops for the Northern Expedition, you have to transport grain from thousands of miles south of the Yangtze River. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and often the food cannot reach the front.
It will be used up on the road, which is also an important reason why our previous Northern Expeditions in the Jin Dynasty were unsuccessful."
