Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 621 The attack went smoothly
Chapter 617

Datang's battle against Goguryeo was very smooth, and there was basically no strong resistance. Now, Datang's army is capturing a large number of captives, mainly women and children, and they are selling them now.

In addition, there are some people who fled to Datang. They are also afraid of being caught. Once they are caught, they will be sold, especially in the border area between Datang and Goguryeo. The people of Datang were very dissatisfied with Goguryeo. They often kill and bring great casualties to the people of Datang,

Now, the people on the border will also report to the government the refugees who escaped from Goguryeo, and the government will arrest them.

But now, what Li Shimin has to consider is how to immigrate the people. After all, there is a lot of land in the northeast, and the land is very fertile. If it can be reclaimed, it will be of great help to Datang.
I was worried about the road problem before, but now Datang is not worried. At worst, the straight road will be repaired and the straight road will go straight to the Goguryeo Peninsula. The common people may not listen to the words of the Tang Dynasty.

"Well, okay, immigrating to the past, the first batch, I plan to move 10 households there, and put them around the big cities of Goguryeo, settle them down, and give them as much land as each person, um, count by person, every I have 5 acres, if they reclaim the land, it will be their own, and in addition, tax exemption for five years, what do you think?" Li Shimin sat there and asked Wei Hao.

"Alright, in addition, reward them with 100 catties of pig iron, no, it should be said, reward them for being outstanding, plows, sickles and other agricultural tools, according to the labor force, and each household will be rewarded with 50 catties of pig iron, let them make farm tools, that's it , It will be much faster for them to cultivate, and the 500 million catties of pig iron they spent is only 5 guan, I believe there is no problem with the court!" Wei Hao thought about it, nodded and said.

"That's fine, just do what you want. This time, we don't have to be afraid of them. Goguryeo is solved, and the Western Turks will be cleaned up next year. We must drive them out of the north. In the future, we will also build cities and straight roads in the north. Tang, I want to control those places, but, as Shen Yong said, the population of my Tang Dynasty is still too small.
But there are too many people, and now we can’t feed them. This is also a problem. Forget it, let’s take it slowly. The food problem is the key. If the food problem is solved, we don’t have to worry about no one! "Li Shimin said with great emotion, Wei Hao had foreseen before that he might encounter food problems, and now he did. The population of Datang is growing very fast, and the people need food.

"That is, don't worry, father, I will definitely solve it here. The seeds you planted in the winter are very effective, and the direct output doubles, but now, I just don't know how the second batch of seeds will be planted. , I don’t know how stable the seeds are, so we still need to study them!” Wei Hao sat there and said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"Double, yes, this is good, Shen Yong, if the food production is doubled, then our people can also be doubled, plus the land we are reclaiming now, I believe that we in Tang Dynasty will not worry about running out of food !” Li Shimin said very excitedly.

"Well, I don't know yet, so we need to continue researching. However, Father, as long as the sweet potatoes come out, there will be no starving people. You can rest assured about this. Now those sweet potatoes are planted in a large number of counties. There were some counties that were not included in the planting before, but their county magistrates came to the door, and I also gave them a lot of seedlings, and I guess it will be winter, so I will know!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin with a smile and said .

"Okay, anyway, I will leave the matter of food to you. I am at ease. You, don't go out. Just study this here in Luoyang. For the matter of war, it is impossible for the emperor to let you go up, unless I am in the Tang Dynasty. There is no one else, otherwise, don’t think about it, you, I, Datang, can’t afford to lose,

Don’t say that Goguryeo is afraid now, it’s the Western Turks, Tubo, and Xue Yantuo, they are all afraid, especially Tubo, now they are panicked when they see us attacking Goguryeo like this, before that Lu Dongzan has been in Chang’an Wait, I want our Tang Dynasty to relax the policy of Tubo, let them send students to our Tang Dynasty, and say that they will pay my respects to the Tang Dynasty for generations,

I don’t believe in such nonsense, it’s that Datang is stronger than them now, they didn’t say that a few years ago, so, on Tubo’s side, I also need to find a plan, there can’t be strong countries around my Datang, listen It is said that Persia is a powerful country, and the Jieri Dynasty is also a powerful country. At that time, I will see how strong they are, and whether they are the opponents of our Datang army! "Li Shimin said very confidently at the moment. He never dreamed that fighting Goguryeo would be so simple. Up to now, he has wiped out countless enemies, and the Goguryeo he fought has no power to fight back!

"Father, this needs to be done step by step!" Wei Hao immediately reminded Li Shimin, Li Shimin nodded and said: "Of course I know, but I still don't know how to take it slowly, just to see who is dishonest!"

Wei Hao sneered,
In the next period of time, good news from the frontline continued. The Tang army really advanced steadily and killed countless enemies. Su Dingfang, who commanded the battle this time, was originally a senior general in the army. In addition, there were Niu Jinda, Cheng Yaojin and other veterans. At the same time, there is gunpowder to cheer, it will be strange if you can't win.

"Master, there are many Goguryeo women here in Luoyang, do you want our family to buy some?" Li Lizhi came in and asked Wei Hao.

"No, why buy this?" Wei Hao immediately shook his head and said.

"Why? Those Goguryeo women are very cheap. Let's buy some. We need so many servants in our house. Those households in our house bought a lot!" Li Li asked Wei Hao puzzledly. .

"You are stupid, your father let the family die. Among them, some of their husbands were killed by Tang Jun, some of their fathers were killed by Tang Jun, and some of their brothers were killed by Tang Jun. If you buy them back, you are not afraid that they will fight you hard. , look, among those officials of the Tang Dynasty, who bought it, who is not afraid of the revenge of those women!" Wei Hao looked at Li Lizhi with a smile and said,
When Li Lizhi heard it, she laughed: "That's right. Besides, we can't blame us for this. It was their Goguryeo who invaded our Tang Dynasty first, and they have been eroding the territory of our Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, my father would also You won’t send troops to fight Goguryeo, will you?”

"If you make this clear to them, they will know that Datang is their enemy. However, we really need to do something now. We can't make those women hate us. It will be troublesome for the children born to our common people to make those women educate them to hate us!" Wei Hao is also thinking about this at the moment, and he can't let them educate their offspring badly.

"They dare, I dare say, life in Datang is much better than theirs in Goguryeo, even if they come here to be concubines, they are better than Goguryeo!" Li Lizhi immediately retorted.

"Well, this is not something they dare to do. I still have to write a letter about this matter. Let the people treat those women kindly, but they can't abuse them. In addition, some regulations must be introduced. They are slaves. Yes, but life and death The power of buying is not in the hands of those buyers, this must be done well!" Wei Hao thought about it for a while, but he was still worried, worried that those women would be abused after they came to Datang, and they came to Datang for the sake of The people of the Tang Dynasty also deserve credit for reproducing their offspring, and they cannot just be abused like this.

"You, you are so kind, really, look, how many people have opinions when you write it like this!" Li Lizhi said to Wei Hao incomprehensibly.

"Then I have to write, that's all, I'll think about it, you are busy, remember, you can't buy it!" Wei Hao explained to Li Lizhi that his family doesn't need such a person.

"I know, I won't buy it!" Li Lizhi nodded,

And Wei Hao began to consider formulating some policies and laws. It cannot be said that those women would intensify their desire for revenge. Otherwise, Datang would be in trouble. Thinking of this, Wei Hao began to take out the memorial and began to write. , emphasizing that those Goguryeo women should not be abused. The government needs to visit those women regularly. Once the abuse is discovered, those women can be taken away, and then let them choose their own homes.

In addition, for those women, once the master wants to apply for their status, they can be given the status of Datang. In this way, they can stay in Datang with peace of mind in the future. Wei Hao has considered a lot, all of which are to protect the rights of those women Yes, other rights and interests are the same as those of women in Datang, but there is one more thing. Once they are abused, the government also needs to take care of them.
After finishing writing the memorial, Wei Hao asked the steward in the house to send it to Zhongshu Province immediately. This memorial needs to follow the procedure, first send it to Chang'an, and let the prince read it before sending it to Li Shimin. Wei Hao I don't want to send it directly to Li Shimin. After all, I still need to go through the process of the Ministry of Education.

After finishing writing, Wei Hao just read at home, or taught Li Shen, and as the weather got warmer, all the dolls in the house were reported. Wei Hao often couldn't tell who was who, too many Yes, they are about the same size.
In the next period of time, Wei Hao will go to inspect, inspect how those sweet potatoes are growing,
On this day, Wei Hao came to Cui Jin's territory.

"I've seen Duke Xia!" Cui Jin heard that Wei Hao was going straight to the farmland, and immediately rode over.

"Well, how have you been recently?" Wei Hao asked immediately when he saw Cui Jin.

"Very good. Recently, some small workshops have been opened on our side. I need to keep an eye on some of them. In addition, the straight road is also being repaired now. We need to hire a lot of labor to work!" Cui Jin turned to Wei Hao He clapped his hands and answered.

"Well, that's good. The sweet potatoes are grown well and grow very well. How many acres have you planted now?" Wei Hao nodded, pointed to the sweet potatoes in the field, and asked.

"In the beginning, you gave us 1000 acres of seedlings. Hey, we will know later that those seedlings can be planted, and we have expanded another 5000 acres. On our side, we planted 6000 acres. According to last year's production, it is half. Bian can support tens of thousands of people, and the registered people in the county are only 7 people. It can be said that this year, our county will not be short of food anyway!" Cui Jin reported to Wei Hao with a smile.

"That's good. In fact, it can still be planted. There is still time for planting at this time. Although the yield is not so high, it can still earn some income if it is planted in the wasteland. You, I don't know much about it. Other counties have planted a few. 10 mu, if it is considered wasteland, some counties exceed [-] mu!" Wei Hao said with a smile, pointing to Cui Jin.

"Ah, you can still grow it now?" Cui Jin looked at Wei Hao in shock.

"Yes, the yield is not that high, but it is still higher than wheat!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I understand, I also have a lot of wasteland here, it's not easy to grow food, don't worry, I'll replant right away!" Cui Jin was also very anxious, food is always the root.

"Okay! You are busy with your affairs first, and I will just take a look. During this time, I have been wandering outside!" Wei Hao said to Cui Jin with a smile, Cui Jin nodded quickly, but he didn't dare to leave. Since Wei Hao Come, they will entertain.

"I don't have anything to do here. I'll go and arrange it. I'll come and accompany the Duke!" Cui Jin cupped his hands and said to Wei Hao. Wei Hao nodded and continued walking in the field, looking at the crops he managed this year. how are you doing,

For the next ten days or so, Wei Hao wandered around various places. According to Wei Hao’s statistics, the area of ​​sweet potatoes planted in the entire Tang Dynasty has exceeded 300 million mu. Even if the output is average, it can feed nearly 2000 million people. , Half of the population of Datang can be supported.

"Okay, okay, so many have been planted, so the possibility of people in my Tang Dynasty going hungry will be very low in the future, right?" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao happily after seeing this data.

"Yes, but if there is a drought or flood, there may still be famine in the region. However, from the perspective of the whole country, we can mobilize food, and we won't worry about not having enough food!" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin, cupping his hands.

"Well, okay, next year we will continue to expand, and I will fill the people's warehouses with food. With this, I really don't have to worry about it. By the way, a few days ago, my Tang army successfully After taking the capital of Goguryeo, the entire royal family of Goguryeo, and their Mozhili Yuangai Suwen were also captured. However, there are still remnants of forces resisting. My Tang army continues to strangle them.

In addition, Silla and Baekje also sent envoys one after another, hoping to go to Datang. They were also worried that my army from Datang would kill them, but they guessed it right! "Li Shimin said to Wei Hao very proudly at the moment.
