I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 539 Do you want beauty or country?
"Your Majesty, I think that the Chu army has risen violently and will sweep south of Sui River."

"At this time, Dayuan has two options. One is to march immediately, so as not to let the Chu army take it captive; the other is to sit and watch the Chu army's atrocities first, and you and Wang Shi will rescue you."

"I don't know the king..."

Zhiyao is waiting for Sima Rangju to express his opinion.

The population of Song State remained at nearly one million for a long time. Later, it fought with Zheng State for a long time, and part of its territory fell into the hands of Wu State. In recent decades, the population has dropped to 80 million.

Their population distribution is relatively dense, the vast majority of the population lives in the capital circle, and the rest is relatively densely populated in the south. The combined population of the north, east and south is less than 30.00% of the country's total.

Of course, this is also related to the distribution of farming areas. There is not enough grain production. With the current means of transportation, it is difficult to support the excessive population in a certain area by relying on other places to transport grain.

The same is true for other countries. For example, the most densely populated area in the original country is the central and eastern regions, all because there are nearly 28 hectares of farmland there.

Zhiyao had already made a decision in her heart, and said slowly: "Let's act with the second strategy."

It is not suitable for Yuan State to invade Chu State immediately, and what Sima Rangju said is very reasonable. The people of Song State have hatred because Yuan State destroyed the Song Dynasty.

The population in the southern part of the Song State is about [-] to [-], and the distribution area is quite wide. The Chu army tried their best to plunder the population, and they only captured [-] to [-] people. Do you know how to hide?
As for materials and the like?Where is the area that Song Guo is focusing on developing? In the south where the development is not very serious, how can there be so many materials for the Chu army to grab.

It is precisely because of this that Zhiyao can't understand this wave of operations by the monarch and ministers of Chu.

Now, the most important thing Yuanguo should do is to digest the immediate results of the war, and quickly arrange the administrative personnel in all villages, townships, ri, counties, and counties in place, so that they can truly control the results of the war and restore the results of the war. Material trauma, hurry up and re-production.

This set of Yuan Guo has been very familiar with, and Song Guo will open a test field for dividing the land by population, which can greatly offset the hatred of Song Guo people towards Yuan Guo.

Don't blame those Song people, people are inherently profit-seeking, the original country distributed land to them, and the land belonged to them only under the rule of the original country, who would miss the Song country and would like to accept the rule of other princes?
Regarding the matter of Juntian, even with Zhiyao's prestige, she still encountered great resistance.

There is no other reason, it is purely a violation of the rules of rewards for meritorious deeds.

It wasn't until Zhiyao implicitly stated that appeasing the people of Song Dynasty was very important to "one world", that the opposition weakened a little, and did not completely disappear.

Why did the reforms of the past dynasties fail to succeed?Isn't it that they will definitely grab the cheese of vested interest groups!
Zhiyao succeeded in changing the national policy several times. In the final analysis, he broke the family and built the country, and did not deal too hard with the cheese of other vested interest groups. Otherwise, he would not want to easily implement the new law.

Two months later, the victorious army returned to the outskirts of "Zhongjing".

Under Zhiyao's will, some representatives of the class division held a grand martial arts ceremony in the suburbs, and then disbanded.

It's not that Zhiyao did this on a whim, to inspire the morale of the whole country's army under the great victory of the national annihilation, and to deter Xiaoxiao.

The second thing Zhiyao did was to worship the ancestral temple and report to the ancestors.

Since Zhiyao's generation turned their family into a country, they successively annexed the big countries of Wei, Qi, Zhongshan, Qin, Zheng, Lu, and Yan. Classes are not worth mentioning at all.

Now, with the addition of Chu State and the vassal states of the Zhuxia system, only the Chu State, Ba State and Zhao Dai State are left.

The structure of the world has changed greatly. From the territory to the population, resources, military strength, etc., the original country is undoubtedly the only one in the world.

It's just that there are many hidden dangers under the rapid expansion, but they are only temporarily hidden or covered up, and it still takes time and methods to eliminate those hidden dangers.

Due to the change of the situation, the original country has also added new enemies, Lin Hu in the northeast, Loufan, Lin Hu, and the Zhao Dynasty in the north, Yiqu in the west, and the remaining Qin people and Rongdi.

Those newly added enemies are very different from the previous enemies of the original country. Most of them have no cities waiting for the original army to conquer, and the fighting is a constant pursuit in the vast plains or forests.

"How is Mizi?" Zhiyao specifically called Zhikai over.

The expression on Zhikai's face was not good, and he said in a low and simple voice: "Depressed and unhappy."

This is not surprising, first there was a miscarriage, then her mother country was wiped out by her husband's country, her father committed suicide and died for his country, and her elder brother was taken to the ancestral temple to fight, it is strange that she was in a good mood.

Zhiyao didn't have extra psychological fluctuations, and asked, "Are you staying in the capital, or are you planning to go to Ba?"

Originally, Zhikai was going to Pakistan, but there was a temporary change later.

Conquering Bashu is of great strategic significance to the original country, and it is very rare in terms of timing.

Ba and Shu are deadly enemies, and they stopped fighting after they went to the original country together.

It was also on that mission that Ba asked Zhiyao to send troops to Badi, for which he was willing to dig a channel to make it easier for the original troops to station.

This is a complete repeat of history. The army stationed there has changed from the Qin army to the original army, and the time has also been advanced by more than 150 years.

Zhikai was supposed to go in before the Ba Kingdom opened up the passage on its own, to learn about the local customs and customs in advance, and it is best to go to the Shu Kingdom to take a look.

Because of the change of plan, Zhikai has been delaying his journey to Badi for more than a year. If the delay continues, Badi will have to open up the passage.

It's just that Mizi's condition is not good, but Zhiyao let Zhikai choose whether to go to Ba or stay, which seems a bit impersonal.

However, what kind of identity and what kind of responsibility should be paid, and there are so many perfections.

This is called: If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

"My son is willing to go to Pakistan." Zhi Kai replied without any hesitation.

Zhiyao stared at Zhikai for a few breaths before nodding.

Do you love the country, or the beauties?
Loving Jiangshan will appear merciless and ungrateful.

Those who love beauty will become foolish kings.

Both?It's not that no monarch can do it, but there are too few monarchs who can do it, it can only be said that there is no one in a hundred.

Zhiyao knew that in the future, she should let Fenying go to the East Palace from time to time, or call Mizi to Changle Palace to chat frequently.

In fact, women who marry the royal family should be psychologically prepared long ago, and don't expect any vigorous love, and their husbands can always be by their side.

If you are a monarch but have so much free time, it is definitely not a country and the people are safe. Ninety-nine out of ten are being made into a puppet.

After all, there is no such thing as Guotai Minan for no reason, everything is based on administrative skills and effective execution.If you want to do this, don't expect extravagance from the moral integrity of your ministers. There is no monarch staring at you with a knife in one hand and a whip in the other.

Once a certain dynasty emphasizes that they are all upright and prosperous?In fact, it is not far from subjugation.

It's just that Yuan country didn't invade Chu country immediately, and it didn't mean that there were no wars going on in other regions.

Sima Rangju continued to lead the army to fight. After they took control of Huainan, they directly landed in the old land of Wu State south of the river.

Regarding the battle report of Wudi, Zhiyao would read one immediately every time it came.

The fact is as they expected before, the people of Wu state not only hated the state of Yue, but also did not have a good impression of the original state for avenging the Wu king Fu Chai, but being ruled, they always wanted to resist, making chaos here and attacking government personnel there. Wait, any Huairou didn't help, Sima Rangju was so stubborn that he had to raise his butcher's knife.

"In history, after the state of Chu destroyed the state of Yue, how did the survivors of Wu and Yue accept the rule of the state of Chu?" Zhiyao can only say that his memory of this period of history is blank.

So, how did Chu rule the land of Wu and Yue?They wantonly divided the land and divided the monarchs, and each of the lords went to various places with force. One word is: kill!

That's right, Chu State ruled the land of Wu and Yue by means of killing. Anyone who finds out that he has objections will be killed, and he will be killed if he is disobedient. In the end, no one will resist, and then the history of Wu and Yue will be erased. The local Shengmin also regarded themselves as Chu people.

The killing method of Chu State is not without sequelae. A large number of Yue people fled relying on geographical advantages, and quite a few fled to Minyue, and then went to various places in the southwest through Minyue; there were also Yue people flying out to sea, and some of them accidentally went to the Wa Islands .

In the late Spring and Autumn Period, people from Zhuxia actually went to the Wa Islands?This is fact, not fiction.

The later rulers of the Uriel Islands were not native peoples. On the contrary, the native peoples were either destroyed or integrated over a long period of time.Most of these conquerors came from the Northeast region and the Korean Peninsula during the Han Dynasty, and there were more immigrants from Nanyang than those from Zhuxia, and finally merged into a new nation.

The Korean peninsula went to many immigrants from the Central Plains during the period of the Five Husbands. They first became part of Goguryeo and were later integrated by the locals.

Although Zhiyao felt that killing people alone was too barbaric, she decided not to interfere with Sima Rangju's decision-making.

Recently, Zhiyao's favorite thing to do is to stand on the highest point of Miyagi and watch the "Zhongjing" take shape day by day.

If "Zhongjing" is officially completed, it is planned to accommodate a population of up to 50.

Of course, in the current era, it is impossible for a city to have a population of 50, and it is really impossible to support it.

Zhiyao plans to migrate people from all over the country after the completion of "Zhongjing", and will stipulate that people with titles must live in "Zhongjing" if they have not been sent abroad.

The rest of the migrating population will be cut off to all parts of the country every year or every three or five years. For example, if the family property is large, they must move to "Zhongjing" to settle down.

Zhiyao has not disclosed this plan to anyone so far, and the treatment of nobles will not be coercive measures, but softer methods of temptation will be used.

As for the part of "mowing the grass", the method will be stricter. People on the relocation list are not allowed to refuse, and if they are soft, they will be tough.

This is of course Zhiyao learning from the Western Han Dynasty.

When Liu Bang and Lu Zhi were in power in the early Han Dynasty, they used this method to ensure the stability of the place, but later Emperor Han Wen didn't do it again. When it was the turn of Emperor Han Jing and Emperor Han Wu to be in power, they were made uncomfortable by local tyrants.

In order to quell the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms, Emperor Han Jing had to borrow money from the people, but the loan was still not available. He had to invite famous people to endorse him as the emperor, so that he had borrowed enough military expenses from the people.

In other words, isn't it said that Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty left mountains of gold and silver to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?Why did Emperor Han Jing need to borrow military expenses? ? ?

but!In order to make up enough military expenses, Emperor Han Jing really borrowed money from the people!

Then, Emperor Jing of the Han reigned for only 16 years, and the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion occurred during the period. How did Emperor Wu of the Han leave a huge amount of wealth?
In this way, it is said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wiped out all the mountains of gold and silver left by Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Han Jing. Those mountains of gold and silver appeared out of thin air.

The truth of history is that the person who made money for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was called Sang Hongyang. The military expenditure of the Han Wu Dynasty came from the Yantie official camp, not at all from the money bank left by Emperor Wen Wen and Emperor Han Jing.

Some romances will be regarded as real history, some people repeat nonsense, people who don't know the truth really believe it, and want to investigate... It will destroy the three views.

Zhiyao has never been troubled by lack of money.

The Zhi family has been in the textile business for more than two hundred years, and once monopolized the large cloth trade in the Central Plains. From the Zhifu generation to the Zhishen generation, it really left Zhiying with a huge and exaggerated amount of wealth.

Thanks to the Spring and Autumn Period, the head of the family has all the rules. After Zhiyao succeeds to the position of the head of the family, he will automatically inherit everything, so he doesn’t have to worry about money. Anyway, Zhi’s non-stop spinning is just printing money, which is the hardest way. one of the currencies.

The only difficulty Zhiyao had was in the convenience of food, but he had been extensively reclaiming the north of "Handan" early on, and until the completion of two water conservancy projects, even if he used troops every year, he still did not suffer from food shortages.

Not to mention the promulgation of the policy of accumulating knighthoods by paying more grain in the original country. The folks may not have much reserves, but the various grain depots belonging to the country are not enough.

This is the trick that Zhiyao learned from Little Pig, and the starting point is also to let the military merits flood.

After all, military merit is a double-edged sword. The positive effect is great during the period of frequent wars. Once the country needs to enter the stage of recuperation, it will suffer backlash.

Zhiyao still has a conscience. She learned from Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and did not learn from Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty.

What did Sui Wendi Yang Jian, who restored the Han family again, do it?He created a system called "Yi Cang", telling the people to pay more food in normal times, and then go to the government to collect the extra food in the disaster year.

The people in the Sui Dynasty, did they receive food later?Those granaries later became the military rations of the uprising troops in various places. Among them, Li Yuan and Wang Shichong got the most food, so that the two uprising troops never suffered from shortage of food.

Zhiyao can't run out of money and food?This is his confidence to complete "One World"!
