The excitement in Zhao Rui's eyes reached the extreme. When he left Gaochangguo, Tian Changgong had already captured most of Xiliao.
However, due to temporary adjustments in strategy, he had to slow down the pace of the attack, and at the same time, he had to assist Zhao Rui in selecting soldiers who could fight on the plateau. As a result, everything was delayed.
Later, Lesheng was transferred to the border town of Gaochang Kingdom and was responsible for deploying soldiers, horses and weapons into the Tubo Kingdom.
In other words, the vast territories of Parthia, Persia, Khwarezm and Garuda would all be managed and managed by Tian Changgong alone.
Under such a heavy burden, he could still find the energy to fight a decisive battle with me in Xiliao, which shows how powerful he is. He is worthy of being the first person in Southern Qi back then!
What surprised Zhao Rui the most was that Sima Wu actually captured eight small countries with only 30,000 troops. Therefore, the land area of these small countries was not very vast, and there were not many soldiers and horses in the country, but they were so short.
It is really a miracle that we can achieve such great results in such a short period of time.
After letting out a slight breath, Zhao Rui took a piece of paper from the side, wrote down an order, and handed it to the messenger in front of him.
"When delivering orders along the way, remember to dictate my order to ask the Duke of Qi to continue to lead his troops westward after taking the capital of Western Liao to see what the territory further west is!"
The ordering soldier did not dare to show any slightness, and after taking the certificate, he hurried out of the hall.
Dai Qisi was also full of surprise. He knew the country of Western Liao quite well. Not only was it a vast country, the people in the country were wealthy, but it also had strong soldiers and horses. Countries such as Garuda and Persia had also considered Western Liao in the past.
It is a pity that several countries joined forces and failed to capture the border town of Xiliao. Instead, they lost their troops and generals.
Now Tian Changgong actually defeated Xiliao until there was only one capital left, which really surprised her.
After Zhao Rui was briefly excited, he immediately calmed down and dug out several copies from a large pile of memorials.
These are all important memorials forwarded here by the Ministry of Agriculture, and all of them are reports on the food crisis.
After the changes in the domestic system of Dashang, ordinary people who farmed can also obtain titles, so food production has greatly increased.
But there is only so much land and only so many people. Even if you work hard day and night, you won't be able to grow much more food.
After several years of construction, domestic straight roads and chimneys extend in all directions, and food transportation is extremely fast. Such efficient transportation makes food even more scarce.
After all, food is needed for frontline battles, food is needed for border guards, and food is needed for grasslands and many places in the Western Regions that do not produce food.
If this continues, the price of food may skyrocket, and the resulting series of economic problems will cause problems for the foundation that Dashang has finally built.
After all, Zhao Rui came to this world from Blue Star, and he paid more attention to food than anyone else, so he established the Ministry of Agriculture.
To a certain extent, this institution is more like a scientific research institution. Many farmers who are good at farming and talented people who study in this field are all concentrated in Luo City.
They have indeed made some achievements in recent years, increasing grain production and grain types, and a large number of new varieties have been developed, but these things will not be put into mass production for a while.
Fortunately, after the development of the Northeastern mountain forests, a large amount of wasteland and plains were cleared, which led to a surge in food production, but even so, there was no way to solve the current predicament.
