Sweep the World

In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of spring, but at the beginning of spring, the weather was still snowy from time to time. It was not at all like the ice and snow were about to melt to usher in the recovery of everything.

"Shi Jie’s spy reported that Heshuo suffered a white disaster that was hard to see in a hundred years, and the white disaster in the further north was even more serious." Xu is the Taiwei. He needs to understand all the affairs of the whole country, and he immediately asked Liu if he felt urgent. Yan reported: "There are rumors that Xigaoche began to have tribes move south."

Whether it is Xi Gaoche or Dong Gaoche, it is actually a tribal alliance of the Dingling people. They replaced the former Huns and Xianbei as the overlord of Mobei. The west is close to Central Asia, and the east is directly to the Daxinganling area.

Gaoche, the newly-born overlord on the grassland, must have water compared to the Xiongnu and Xianbei. At least with their strength, if they face the complete Central Plains dynasty, they must be rubbed on the ground. To put it simply, Rouran destroyed the east and west high cars and launched a war against the Northern Wei Dynasty in a unified manner. However, the Northern Wei Dynasty was able to block Rouran while dealing with the Southern Qi. If it was replaced by the Xiongnu or Xianbei, the Northern Wei Dynasty would have to stop cooking. Up.

"The concubine De concubine communicated with her family's letters, and the Daiguo side also encountered the southward migration of the northern nomads." The concubine De Concubine Liu Yan said was of course Tuoba Xiu. He said to Xu Zheng: "It seems that the white disaster in Mobei is a full-scale outbreak."

The Little Ice Age had a great influence on North and East Asia, and whoever made the North Pole was around. Every outbreak of the Little Ice Age was a severe challenge to the Central Plains dynasty. Not only would the nomads in the north be forced to migrate south, the Central Plains and the south of the Yangtze River would also explode frequently and dry out.

Some historians say that every downfall of the Central Plains dynasty is related to the appearance of the Little Ice Age. If you look at the history books, you will get proof that it is really related. It is just that the Central Plains dynasty perishes every time during the Little Ice Age. The outbreak is pure nonsense. It is not that the Central Plains dynasty itself has a problem. Some dynasties that have no problems in themselves are defended and reversed.

"The King..." Xu Zheng smiled bitterly, and said: "It is possible to cultivate one's health and nourish the body..."

The nomads in Mobei are moving south, the first to be impacted are the Shijie Zhao Kingdom, Tuoba Dai Kingdom, and Murong Yan Kingdom. If these countries are invaded by the nomads in Mobei and there is no domestic turmoil, it must be done with troops. Isn't it an opportunity for Han?

"Hmm..." Liu Yan knew what Xu Zheng wanted to say, and nodded: "Always pay attention to the impact of the migrating Mobei nomads on the countries."

If the nomads from Mobei continue to invade Shijie Zhao, Tuoba Dai, and Murong Yan, Han will never sit back and miss out on opportunities. At that time, it may interrupt the national policy of self-cultivation and rest and seize the opportunity to March to the north.

In the winter of this year, the Han state made necessary adjustments to the army, disbanded the Northern Expedition Corps and the Southern Recruitment Corps, and planned with generals of the "Zheng" level.

General Zhengbei set up the shogunate to deal with the war in the north. The shogunate was led by Li Tan, under the jurisdiction of six armies, and the main target was Shijie Zhao.

The General Zhengdong is led by Lu Tae, under the jurisdiction of three armies, including Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, and the Wo Lie Islands, and other servants totaling 300,000 people. They are also in the direction of Jizhou and Liaodong to conquer Murong Yan. .

General Zhengnan is the main general of Huan Wen, and he has three armies under his jurisdiction. They are still a family that is resisting in the south. They have already reached the hinterland of Jiangzhou and marched into Lingnan.

The current General Zhengxi of the Han Dynasty is in a vacant state, and Xie An, General Zhengxizhong Lang, led his troops into Guanzhong, with an army of troops stationed in Longcheng.

The total strength of the forces in several directions is 13 armies, and each armature is at least 15,000 men, so it is 200,000 troops. They are the standing army retained in Liu Yan's plan.

Except for the 200,000 standing army, the rest of the soldiers were either transferred to localities to become county soldiers, or retired from the army and returned to their hometowns. That is to say, the Han country directly cut 400,000 from the field corps of more than 600,000.

If you add in the counties and counties in various places, the total number of the standing army and counties and counties should be about 350,000, and the 150,000 counties and counties are equivalent to the reserve supplement for the field corps. The lack of troops in the field corps draws blood from soldiers from various counties and counties, not a new round of civil recruitment.

This time, the disarmament was not as smooth as the last time. The Han country values ​​its military merits, but anyone who has the courage to join the army to gain military merits, although the troops classified as the target of disarmament have not been mutiny, the complaints are not few.

The Taiwei Department’s complaints about disarmament have searched for Liu Yan many times, hoping to slow down the disarmament actions, but the military has encountered resistance from the civilian officials. Liu Yan chose to speak on the side of the civilian officials in the arbitration.

"Information delay... is a big problem!" Liu Yan was a little bored, and said, "If you want to use troops in the north, how much force does Su Xiao think will be needed?"

"Only the six armies of the northern shogunate are definitely not enough for Shijie." Xu Zheng obviously has studied: "The Zhengdong shogunate has a total of close to 350,000 troops, but the combat power of those servants is compared. Worry."

Shihu fleeed to Bingzhou and Shuozhou with millions of people. The Jie people suffered losses in the Central Plains war, but the greatest losses in the Central Plains war were the Qiang and Di people. The Jie tribe’s losses in the Central Plains war can only be said to be minor.

According to estimates, the Shijie Zhao Kingdom, which still owns Binzhou and Shuozhou, should have a total population of about 3 million, and the Jie tribe will not be less than 400,000. The rest are the Qiang, Di, Zahu, and deportation. Of the Han family.

It is estimated that there are still about 3 million in Shijie Zhao country, mainly because Fu Hong abandoned Longxi later, and the tribes from Longxi and Beidi once again turned to Shihu. There is news to corroborate that Fu Hong was Shihu who had defected with at least 600,000 to 700,000 people.

Murong Yanguo conducted a population register in 442 AD. At that time, the population count was more than 1.8 million? Considering that in recent years, Murong Yanguo has not only fought and wiped out small countries such as Fuyu, Quwo, and Shenguo, but also aggressively invaded the hinterland of Goguryeo. Should the population increase, should the total population be approaching 2.5 million?

"The widows will transfer the Imperial Guards to the north. At the time, the Imperial Guards will be the main force, and the Northern Shogunate will cooperate with the Imperial Guards to fight Shijie." Liu Yan still has 34,000 in the Imperial Guards. The number is not the key. It can be added at any time. He said: "What needs to be worried is... whether the country's food can be sustained."

The country of Han has risen in a deserted land. The production system was destroyed by the raging Hu people. It is not that simple to resume production. The water conservancy system must be repaired and added. The prime minister's office of the water conservancy system alone gave it. The answer will take at least seven or eight years to build properly.

Of course, the grain produced cannot be completely attributed to military use. Before civilian production resumes, most areas need the state to mobilize grain for supply. Now in addition to the levy of manpower, all localities are recruiting to give most people a bite of food. .

"The barbarian land in the Southwest Peninsula..." Xu Zheng said viciously, "It's a place with a lot of food!"

This is what Liu Yan thought of. The country is short of food and desperately needs food. It is imperative to initiate the invasion of the Southwest Peninsula. It is time to urge the Yu clan. If the Yu clan is still dragging, then the national power must first pounce on it. .

"The melting of ice and snow has been delayed much more than in previous years, and the projection of Xingxiangguan will be delayed by at least one month. They told the widow that there may be a drought this year." Liu Yan has some impressions of the Wuhuluanhua drought. The biggest drought was the death of Ran Wei. After that, four or five years later, there is a small drought at this stage. He said: "The invasion of the Southwest Peninsula will begin as soon as possible, and we will be able to **** a large amount of food within four months."

Xu Zheng nodded fiercely, that's what he meant.

That is to say, Liu Yan has golden fingers. Invading a place, he can directly deposit items that the system can accept, and then take them out in a different place, saving long-distance transportation. The trouble is that Liu Yande always pays close attention to this type of operation only under his order, and cannot be transferred to others to operate with confidence.

"So..." Xu Zheng had finished what he should report. He eagerly searched for Yu Yi in his heart, stood up and saluted: "The minister will go to the Tingwei now."

After Liu Yan waited for Xu Zheng to leave, he immediately sent for Prime Minister Ji Chang to come over.

The country expects that the implementation of the national policy may change. Although it is a high-level mistake, the current situation needs to be changed. There is really nothing that cannot be changed.

Xu Zheng went out of Miyagi directly to the Court's Office, and went straight to find Yu Yi when he reached the ground.

The Court Service does not yet have its own dedicated office location, but a temporary office has been set aside on the outskirts of the huge Miyagi. This is not only the case of the Tingwei Office, but also the central departments of the Han Kingdom. Who made Liu Yan choose the future capital in Chang'an, and Xiangguo was only a temporary capital.

"Taipei?" Yu Yi had been notified in advance that Xu Zheng was coming. He put down the paper slip in his hand, stood up to greet him, and asked in surprise, "What's the urgent matter?"

Xu Zheng looked a little hurriedly, and said after replying, "I came for the Yu family to invade Linyi country."

Yu Yi did not know about the White Disaster in Mobei, nor did he know that there would be changes in the national policy of the Han Dynasty for cultivation and health. When he heard that he was here for the Yu family, he was stunned and said: "The king encourages all families to open up to the southwest. It is not easy for the Yu family to go alone. There are many who want to unite and are already preparing for the invasion."

If he came from a pure family, Xu Zheng would know that some things could not be asked directly, especially matters related to the core interests of the family.

Xu is from a small local family. He has been used to going straight for a long time. He didn't pay much attention to Yu Yi's face and said directly: "Something has changed. If the Yu clan moves too slowly, the Taiwei Department will send troops directly."

"This..." Yu Yi and Xu Zheng were not familiar with each other and felt embarrassed. At the same time, he guessed what was wrong and asked, "Taiwei said slowly?"

Xu Zheng thought for a while. The seriousness of the White Disaster in Mobei is not a secret matter. The state policy of cultivation and nourishment will soon be interrupted before it is really implemented, and it will soon become a reality. He revealed some of the things that he had just discussed with Liu Yan.

"The big man lacks food to such a degree!?" Yu Yi remembered that Han was a country that has never been short of food. He said in a daze: "The news of food shortage must be strictly sealed and must not be leaked."

There are still several hostile countries in Han. They have expanded too fast in just a few years. In fact, the various regions are not so stable. It is not long after the recovery of the south of the Yangtze River. Once news of the country’s food shortage is leaked out, those hostile countries The country will definitely take action, and even some domestic disobedience forces will jump up and down.

Liu Yan and Xu Zheng are not confused, how could they make the news of the country's food shortage become widely known.

"The national treasury grain can also support the 200,000 army for half a year of conquest." Xu Zheng said solemnly: "The so-called food shortage is that too many people need the government to provide grain."

Yu Yi didn't entangle this question at all, instead he said: "There are so many big clans, powerful and powerful families in various places. In order to reduce transportation consumption along the way, you can stay in the local area. The food in the center...supplied to the military..."

The ten years of Hu's ravages in the Central Plains have created two extremes. There are countless people who starve to death, but there is so much food in the cellar at home that there are too many molds.

The aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River had never experienced food shortages, and even the people rarely experienced food shortages. Every family that was wiped out by the Han army swept the south, they were able to find a lot of money and food.

Only a few high-level officials knew about the "special method" of Han's grain transfer. Yu Yi, who had just become a court lieutenant, didn't know the secret. He gave quite a few suggestions.

"How many ships does Yu have that can be dispatched?" Xu Zheng didn't wait for Yu Yi to give the answer, so he said: "Within a month there will be a fleet departing from Qingzhou and going directly to Zhanghai (South 1 Sea). Keep up with the Yu family."

What can Yu Yi say besides nodding his head?

Xu Zheng is giving Yu Yi face~www.wuxiaspot.com~ or it depends on the premise that Yu Yi has given quite a few opinions on the lack of food.

On the other side, Liu Yan personally introduced the situation in the north to Ji Chang, and then discussed the discussion with Xu Zheng, and finally said: "This is a widow's mistake. We should first explore the situation in Qing Mobei before formulating a national policy."

The transition from the Han Kingdom to cultivation and health cultivation is beneficial to the civil service system, which indicates that the military system will enter a period of precipitation. The prime minister's office is the center of the civil service system. Once the country fully develops civil affairs, the powers of the prime minister's office will of course become important.

"My lord, it is normal for news from thousands of miles away to be delayed." Ji Chang is not a power freak. On the contrary, he is a prime minister who will unconditionally support Liu Yan in whatever he wants to do. He said: "Since the situation has changed, the cultivation of health and rejuvenation will naturally be delayed, but to what extent it will be delayed, I would like to ask Wang Shang to show me down."

"The southward migration of the nomads in Mobei will inevitably have an impact on Shijie and Xianbei. The widows think that we need to see their response." Liu Yan thought for a while before continuing: "If it can make them both lose, naturally Is the best."

Ji Chang understands that some of the things in cultivation and health can continue to be done, and the country will not expand its military in a short time. After all, it has not been long after the disarmament.
