ps: Chapter 2, the update time has finally been adjusted. In order to not have to stay up all night waiting for the update in the future, should there be a wave of recommended tickets and monthly tickets to celebrate?

As an economic expert, Ji Ran has done a lot of homework, and he also browsed through the data of counties and townships along the way when he marched with Zhao Wuxi. It had only been more than half a month since he entered the country of Lu, but he seemed to be a passer of the country of Lu. After this meeting, Ji Ran settled the account for Zhao Wuxi.

"The general worked hard for several years in the state of Lu, selling things such as porcelain and Lu Zhan in exchange for food. Many places have been on millet for one year, Qufu, Yuncheng and other places even for two years. However, the general fought for a year and a half in a row, and each time Mobilization, assembly, and training all consume a lot of food, and there are not many warehouses left in these areas. Not to mention that the young people of Lu State were recruited into the army, and the people were already short of labor. Then Lu State was invaded by Qi again. Last year's autumn harvest was affected, and this year's spring ploughing was even more delayed."

"As a result, the food in the country of Lu is barely enough to eat the autumn harvest, and many places are afraid of famine before the autumn. The general has suppressed the price of food through equal losses in recent years, but now it is going to skyrocket. Hundreds of dollars, thousands of dollars, people's hearts will be in chaos! This is not even counting the general's army to eat horses, and it is a huge expenditure. Previously, they relied on the food that Taoqiu transported to Yuncheng to maintain military supplies, what should we do after that?"

He finally came to a conclusion: "In short, if there is an additional burden of 30,000 mouths, the current state of Lu cannot afford to support so many prisoners. Even if they are allowed to participate in the harvesting as gangsters, they will have to wait for the autumn harvest season in July and August. , now is the middle of May, the general must find enough food for 30,000 people for three months, otherwise..."

Ji Ran didn't go on, but Zhao Wuxi knew the consequences. Food is the foundation of all states. If you can't even eat enough, you won't be able to talk about all the fame and hegemony.

He touched his chin and said: "I won't stay in Lu for a long time, the western front of Jin is in a hurry, Tongjiao has been captured by Zhiyao, Han Hu and Le Fuli retreat to Shangdang and the eldest son, I am afraid that they will be at any time. It may not be able to hold on, the front is moving towards Taihang, and even Wenxian is not safe. By June at the latest, my army will return westward, and the food burden of Lu will be relieved.”

"As for the rations of the prisoners..." Zhao Wuxi thought about it, "How much is the gap?"

Ji Ran turned the abacus, and he fell in love with this invention: "A man eclipses one stone and a half of corn in the moon, and in three months, it is about four stones and five buckets, and 30,000 people is 140,000 stones."

"Mengli don't have to eat enough, but when they are full, they will have the mind of rebellion. One stone a month is enough, 30,000... 100,000 stones?"

Zhao Wuchun smiled: "I remember that after Chaoge was conquered, there were more than one million stone grains in the city. In a year, people eat horse chews and consume more than half of it, and there are still hundreds of thousands left. Now that the transportation to Weiguo has been opened, You can go down the river at any time, and then take the land to meet the Jilu Kingdom."

"Chaoge can't move the food." Ji Ran was very determined.

"Although the general won the war in the east, the war in the west with the Marquis of Jin, Zhi, Wei Hefan, and Bank of China was separated by Taihang. Even if the war went smoothly, it would take a year and a half, or even longer. Zhao Han There are many troops stationed in Hanoi. Hanoi has just recovered from the war, and many places have no grain before the autumn harvest. They all rely on Chaoge's warehouse to provide assistance, so Chaoge's grain must not be used! What's more, there is more than this shortage of food among the people of Lu. It is estimated that it will take 300,000 shi to bring down the price of grain in Lu State and enter the autumn harvest safely. If you lose millet for thousands of miles, one third of the millet will be eaten by the people in Lu State.

"Then what should I do..." Zhao Wuxi frowned.

Wei Guo? There is no need to count on Wei Guo. When Zhao Wuxi left, Diqiu himself was short of food. He also blamed him for destroying Wei Guo so much in recent years.

Cao country? The state of Cao was also in great chaos, and Zigong had to bear the food for the Zhao army to return to the division, which was much more important than keeping the Qi prisoners from starving to death.

Song country? The Song Kingdom is also difficult. My uncle has been complaining all day long. In peacetime, everyone is well-off, but the war is tight. It is said that Nanzi has tightened his belt and took the lead in reducing meals to support the Zhao family.

Sishang small country? Those small states can be squeezed, but some states have a population of only 300,000 to 50,000. In this green and yellow month, even if they are forced to death, they can't suddenly come up with so much food.

A penny stumped the heroic man, and a mere 300,000 shi of grain, but it made the illustrious general Zhao Xiaojian make a difficult situation.

Zhao Wuchen thought about it again and again, and finally his eyes lit up, and he patted his head. He was really stupid, and he couldn't see Mount Tai!

"This is food!" Zhao Wuxi walked to the map spread out in the tent, and tapped the area north of Wenshui and the western foot of Mount Tai, which was the territory of Qi State, with a large area of ​​cities.

"As early as two days ago, I sent a thousand cavalry of the commander of Yuxi to enter the Qi border as a forward to explore the road. Although my army had to rest and return to Jin to rescue the emergency, I couldn't leave the Qi country with the south gate open. It would be a pity to miss this opportunity, it would be better to leave a branch of divisions to go to the southern border of the Qi Kingdom to occupy the city, because the food will be lost to the enemy!"

...

"The treasuries that supply the army are mainly located in Dong'e and Pingyin. In addition, Sui, Zhan, and Yangzhou, these Qianshi towns have tens of thousands of stone grains..."

With the pioneering of Jin and Zheng, written laws have gradually become popular among the princes, and Qi also has a "Kufa" for arranging grain storage. The capital city of Qi must have a government warehouse. As a prisoner, Gao Wupi was forced to help, and he bravely pointed out to Zhao Wuxi the location of Qi * grain on the map. This area is called the field of Wenyang, which was originally the land of Lu. The territory of the country was eroded by Qi in two hundred years, and it became an enemy territory.

Of course he and Guoxia knew what Zhao Wuxi was going to do, but what could be done with the knife on his neck? What's more, Qi people did not loot the granary less when they entered Lu, and now they are retaliating. I just hope that Zhao Wuxi can really abide by his "martial soldier" bottom line, and the damage to the southern border of Qi can be as small as possible.

However, Guo Xia and Gao Wupi are destined to be disappointed, because Zhao Wuxi decided to stay behind as a partial coach, but Liu Xiazhi, who raised his family from robbery...

"Before the first battle of Wenshui, there were still nearly ten thousand people on the east front of the Qi army, and they didn't have time to come to meet them. I asked Liu Xiazhi to deal with them. Now these people have been unable to bear the trouble and have returned to Muling Pass. I want to rely on three thousand people to conquer this Xiongguan. Impossible, I will let Liu Xiazhi turn westward and enter the land of Wenyang through Jiagu and Changshao. performed."

Xu Cheng's navigator has already achieved a small success, and he can also follow Yang Fan down the water to go deep into the hinterland of Qi, creating panic, and the people of Qi are going against the current, making it difficult to defend.

Ji Ran agreed with this strategy, he said: "Indeed, Qi's army has been trapped for nearly half, and it is impossible to organize a large army to defend against it in a short time, which is a great opportunity to regain the inherent territory of Lu. It is not bad for the old man. The forces of the Duke of Qi, the country and the second minister of Gao have been completely lost. Within the country of Qi, great changes will take place! If the external enemy is too strong, the Qi people who look good and separated will join forces to defend against the enemy. People will fight on their own.”

Zhao Wuxi also thinks so, the reason why he is holding Guoxia and Gao Wupi, not letting go or killing, is waiting for such a situation to complete his oriental layout: "Yes, such a good opportunity, if Chen Qihe If Chen Heng and his son do not move, they are not the Chen family."

While sending Yu Xi into the Qi border to explore the road first, Zhao Wuxi also deliberately released some Qi prisoners back, with a lot of fine work mixed in. They will advertise the funeral of the country and Gao Erqing in Dong'e and Pingyin. past. Zhao Wuxi hoped that the Chen family would not be able to bear it any longer, and let Qi fall into a chaos of power and profit, so that he would not be able to influence him to finish the civil war in Jin.

Liu Xiazhi and Xu Cheng are the swords that stab the Qi country. They will bring the taste of war to the Qi people. Ran Qiu is the shield to stabilize the situation in the Lu country. servitude. With these two people around, Lu Guo can have no worries.

After the final plan, the Zhao army was ready to leave the camp. It is now the fifth day after the Battle of Wenshui, and the interrogation and screening of the good people in Qiren Township is almost the same. It is basically clear which branches killed the common people and officials in Xilu.

"Put those thousands of people in solitary confinement, starve them for a day, and let them report to each other, who killed people, who committed evil, who is the main offender, and who is the accomplice, try to find out. I only give three days, If they can't find them on the first day, they will kill one of ten people, and if they can't find them on the second day, they will kill two people from ten people, and on the third day, they will be slaughtered completely!"

Zhao Wuxi was ruthless, and a wave of mutual reporting blew through the Qi prisoners, making them all endangered. This is the punishment for the collective crime of ordinary soldiers. Almost a thousand people were found.

Five hundred accomplices were sentenced to corporal punishment, and the other five hundred Qi people, whose hands were covered with the blood of Lu people, were executed in a shocking manner when the Zhao army went to Qufu. Wooden stakes were erected every half a mile, and a man of Qi was nailed to it with wooden pegs. They were nailed to life, their stomachs were pulled open, their intestines were hung outside, and only one arm was stretched out, pointing in the direction of Xilu— - The direction in which they committed the crime!

Zhao Wuxi did not wantonly kill prisoners, and showed his generosity to the world, but now, he has also shown his temperament to report his grievances directly in this way, warning everyone that those who clearly offend the people of the Zhao family will be punished! This is much more shocking than the simple view of Beijing.

...

In the second half of May, Zhao Wuxi and Le Min brought the Zhao-Song coalition back to Qufu. A huge parade of prisoners was held at the North Gate. More than half a month ago, the people of Qi were still showing off their strength here, but now they are all downcast. After passing the city tower, he knelt down in front of the crowd of Qufu people, and was attacked by rotten vegetables and stones, as well as being scolded by countless Luguo dialects.

Zhao Wuxi has fulfilled his promise. With him in power, the state of Lu is no longer a weak state that can be bullied, but a strong state that can fight back against invasions and atrocities!

The unprecedented victory in two hundred years has nothing to do with the monarch of the Lu Kingdom. Lu Hou only showed his side symbolically, and timidly withdrew into the palace. He had been a puppet for several years, and he was addicted to alcohol to forget this helpless reality. Oil is not far away, Zhang Mengtan believes that it is time to pay attention to finding new candidates.

Zhang Mengtan said: "The Marquis of Lu has only one son, named 'General', who is only twelve or three this year, and has been established as a prince."

Wu Xian thought about it for a while and said, "Take him out of the Lu Palace, build a separate East Palace for him, and invite a few teachers and masters to tell him more about the benefits of delegating power to the shogunate and the monarch under the bow. "

He suddenly laughed: "Of course, even if the country of Lu has changed its monarch, you are the one who actually rules. In the future, the country of Lu is likely to have a 12- or 13-year-old monarch, plus a shogunate general who has just been weaned. How much can Meng Tan take care of..."

"Ever since I met the lord in Pan Palace, I knew that I couldn't get rid of my hard work." Zhang Mengtan shook his head with a wry smile, and went down to arrange the above matters.

In addition, rewarding the merits should be carried out immediately. Originally, Ran Qiu, Zhang Mengtan, Yu Xi and others were all large landowners who already had vast food fields and more than 100 servants. After this war, many of them made contributions again, so the scholars were promoted to junior doctors, and the junior doctors were promoted to doctors, and they even gave Ran Qiu, Gongshuban and others as many as ten thousand mu!

After that, Zhao Wuxi had to consider the weight of the reward, and gave Qianshicheng as a food town. It happened that many doctors in Donglu were either arrested or defected, and the Hebei area of ​​Jin State was empty~www.mtlnovel. com~ Thief Zhi can take a little time to conquer the field of Wenyang, and the power is constantly expanding, Zhao Wuxi has no worries and no land to reward.

Of course, these are all false seals, supplemented by feudalism, and the national policy of centralizing the county system must not be undermined!

Considering that there are too few titles for ministers, doctors, and scholars, and there is not enough room for advancement, when the civil war in Jin is over, it will be time to restructure in Jinlu and get a 20th-class noble.

After the Lu people had vented enough and cheered enough, Le Mi, who had enjoyed the great victory, would take the Song army back to Song State via Zhu, Xiao Zhu and other places, and by the way frightened the Sishang princes to let them know that Qi State was over, Si Shang was over. It is still the order jointly dominated by the Lu and Song Dynasties, no matter how dishonest you are, you will be destroyed and your country will be destroyed!

As for Zhao Wuxi, he took Guoxia, Gao Wupi, Yang Sheng, the son, and the Qi military officials who condoned the looting and murder of the soldiers and returned to the west. During the period, he would pass through Yuncheng, and what awaited them was an unprecedented trial. !

It is interesting to say that a gentleman from the Jin state vented his anger on the people of the state of Lu, and when he tried a group of generals and officers of the state of Qi, the judge was a man from the state of Zheng.

He is the author of "Bamboo Punishment", the first folk criminal law in China, and the founder of the study of the law. His name is Deng Xi... (To be continued.)
