Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 367 The Situation in the South

Compared with Sun Xiangfu's little plan, Wang Hao's game is a big one. After receiving the news from Wang Zhi, he just smiled and said, "My big brother is still so big. If you don’t make progress, everything you think about is just for your own personal grievances, it’s too boring.”

If Wang Hao's vocabulary was bigger, he would definitely not describe Wang Lin as too boring, it should be too low-level.

"Mr. Hao, what should we do next? Shall we disclose this news to Sun Zhengming?" Zhang Cheng, one of Wang Hao's capable generals, asked him for instructions.

"No, on the contrary, I think that letting people like Li Shimin and Sun Zhengming experience the pain of losing their family and losing their children will make them stronger.

Therefore, not only can we not leak the news, but we also need to help the Tubo people to hide the news. Only by letting them go to Chang'an will they drive Li Shimin crazy, give up that ignorant national integration policy, and truly draw a line with the aliens. endlessly.Their abilities are not weak, even if they can't unify the Han people, at least they can create a prosperous age like the Han Wu period. "

Wang Hao's words were very calm, without any emotion, as if the lives of millions of people in Chang'an City were worthless, and they didn't need pity at all, but Zhang Cheng felt chills in his chest when he heard it.

"So, shall we continue to help Shelong and develop Mengshe Zhao?"

During this period, the tribes of Yunnan have been gradually divided into six major branches, also known as the six imperial edicts, namely: the Mengxi edict, the Yuexi edict, the Langqiong edict, the Biji edict, the Shilang edict and the Mengshe edict.

The Shelong mentioned by Zhang Cheng is the chief of Mengshezhao. Historically, it was his son Xi Nuluo who unified the six tribes and established the Nanzhao Kingdom during the Gaozong period. At this time, Xi Nuluo was still a twelve-year-old Three and a half years old.

The reason why Wang Hao supported Shelong was because the Mengshe Zhao he led was pro-Han. After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he was appointed as the general guarding Yunnan. In terms of military strength, it is not as strong as the Mengshezhao tribe, which is also of the Bai nationality, and cannot hold down the other tribes at all.

Wang Hao had already foreseen that Mengshi would replace Zhang, so after coming to the territory of Mengshezhao, he quickly became an existence comparable to a great wizard here by relying on his own wisdom, because he could heal diseases , He can easily treat terminal illnesses like pot belly disease.

"Well, you have to let the people in Lingnan keep an eye on it, but if there is something new, immediately explore the technology and send it here. We will let the Mengshe Zhao rise quickly, unify the ministries, and establish a true meaning. kingdom above."

Wang Hao is not a time traveler, but he is very smart. He may not be good at creating, but he is very good at learning. Therefore, he only learned some of Sun Xiangfu's practices in Lingnan, and he quickly gained a foothold in Mengshezhao. Being able to help the people relieve their illnesses and bring them some better living materials is enough to make the people of Mengshezhao who are in a poor and backward state feel grateful to Wang Hao.

Therefore, Wang Hao in Mengshezhao, just like Sun Xiangfu in Lingnan, is a figure loved by the whole people.

And why Wang Hao came to Mengshezhao to plan to integrate many scattered tribes into a country, only he himself knows.

"A former spies came back and said that there is a small tribe along the coast of Linyi Kingdom, which has a close connection with the Lingnan side. They also saw Sun Zhengming's water and sail boats giving them supplies. After careful investigation, I found out that this is called Bata’s tribe was originally a small tribe with hundreds of people. The leader was Bamu. He was the one who provided rice seeds to Sun Zhengming three years ago. Later, with the support of Sun Zhengming, his tribe grew many times. Now , there are thousands of young and strong people equipped with iron weapons alone, occupying hundreds of miles around the coast, and even Linyi King Fan Fanzhi dare not fight against them. Moreover, they are still expanding rapidly, and it is said that they are already in the Prepare to build a city."

"Sun Zhengming has developed a force along the coast of Cochin?"

Hearing this news, even someone as wise as Wang Hao was a little surprised. Lin Yiguo was established in the old land of Jiaozhi County in the Han Dynasty. , in a state of multi-tribal autonomy.

The power of Bamu was actually developed by Zhao Long for military training by accident. Now, it is very likely to affect some of Wang Hao's plans, because he originally planned to unify the six departments of Yunnan and continue to expand to the south. developed.

He has no doubt that with more support from Sun Xiangfu, this Bata tribe will develop into the master of the southern coast, because here, with iron knives, guns and arrows, it is already much more advanced than most tribes with bamboo guns and bamboo sticks What's more, they will also get a lot of Sun Xiangfu's technology or military support.

"Does the rise of this tribe conflict with your plan? Do you want your subordinates to find a way to get rid of it?"

"That's not necessary, you should send someone to pay close attention to it first! If you move them now, it is likely to attract the attention of the Lingnan side. Sun Zhengming and Feng An joined forces. In the south, no one is their opponent. We must do things in the future. Be more cautious."

After Wang Hao finished speaking, he began to close his eyes and meditate. Zhang Cheng knew that he didn't like being disturbed by others when he was thinking about problems, so he stopped making a sound and retreated.

The territory of Mengshezhao is the southernmost among the six zhaozhao, so it is called Nanzhao, and its tribal people are also called Nanzhao people. They especially like to raise pigs, and they even raise them under their own houses. As a result, there was always a smell of stinky pig manure in the village, but they didn't seem to resist this smell, but Zhang Cheng couldn't stand it.

It is said that there are many pig farms in Chang’an that can sell more than [-] heads in a year. The pigs there grow quickly and the pig houses are clean. , Zhang Cheng really wants people to learn, and then introduce technology to teach people here to raise pigs. Anyway, Wang Hao is just trying to help Shelong develop Mengshezhao, and help them upgrade their main industries, which will make them development has made great progress.

After a while, Zhang Cheng summoned his subordinates to assign tasks. Who knows, where did he get new information from his subordinates.

The people of the Bata tribe have indeed started to build the city. Although the city wall is not very tall, the city of the building is completely in the style of the Han people's city. It is said that the city will be named Guangzhi City, and this is only the first city they built. Later, they will restore the organizational system of Rinan County during the entire Han Dynasty, that is to say, they will incorporate this place into Datang and become a county.

This was important news, Zhang Cheng immediately reported it to Wang Hao, and he finally saw a glimmer of excitement on Wang Hao's usually calm face.

"The old land of Rinan County now belongs to Lin Yiguo. It seems that Sun Zhengming has thought about the land in the south early in the morning. Go tell Shelong, and I will see him later."

After Wang Hao gave the order, he quickly made a plan on his desk. His assumptions had actually gone awry. Sun Xiangfu didn't even solve the problem in the north, so he didn't care about going to the south. Bamu's series of measures It was all promoted by Feng An after learning about the situation here.

Feng An, who is familiar with history, knows that this place was a place of right and wrong during the Han Dynasty, and that it was deeply influenced by South Indian culture, and the characters used here were also South Indian characters. The king of Yi, Fan Fanzhi, sent an envoy to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, but since then, he has had close contacts with South India and Tubo, and the culture of the Central Plains is not promoted in his country. Over time, it will become a disaster.

In Feng An's view, one must be prepared for danger when living in peace. Lingnan is getting richer, so don't be wary of other people's ideas here. The early promotion of Han culture to the surrounding area will save a lot of trouble later.

Sun Xiangfu is constantly expanding outwards in the north, how can he be idle in the south!After Bamu, a force completely supported by him, overthrows Linyi Kingdom, the entire southern coast will be under his jurisdiction. Not to mention expanding the territory of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of miles, he can also monopolize the maritime trade of the entire South Asia .

His plan made Wang Hao speed up his plan, and the entire land of Nanzhao began to be shrouded in the cloud of war.

Sun Xiangfu in Chang'an didn't know the situation in the south at all. He only knew some basic conditions in Lingnan through regular correspondence with Feng An and Zhao Long.

With the support of several architectural talents under Zhou Chun, the construction of New Guangzhou City has already begun. For this reason, Feng An recruited 10,000+ young men from various ministries of Baiyue. As well as the tens of thousands of slaves captured along the east coast, the total number of construction workers exceeded 20.

However, Feng An's headquarters still focus on food, sugar, fresh melons and fruits, sea fish, maritime trade and other projects, as well as military construction. After these projects develop, Feng An's deterrent power to all ethnic groups in Baiyue Stronger, moreover, the young and strong men of various tribes are constantly leaving their own tribes and flowing into Feng An's subordinates.

This situation has caused the leaders of the various ethnic groups in Baiyue to gradually lose control over the people in their own tribes, and naturalization has become a general trend for the various ethnic groups in Baiyue. Of course, there will be many small ups and downs in the process, Feng An He is ready to wave his butcher knife against the last diehards at any time, because after a round of military equipment refitting, he already has absolute military strength.

Everyone was doing things according to their own plans, and so were the sons of the aristocratic families in Chang'an. Three days later, Wu Ying'er's subordinates finally found out some information about Lu Wenyuan's family on the mine. After the Cui family provided some information to Sun Xiangfu, Sun Xiangfu was able to clearly know the number and location of the mines secretly controlled by these companies.

After compiling the information into a book, Sun Xiangfu handed it over to Hou Junji. It is believed that with his military ability, he would use a hundred thousand troops to deal with small groups of bandits and bandits scattered in various places with hundreds of thousands of people. Next.

After accepting some suggestions from Sun Xiangfu, Hou Junji quickly dispatched troops. He just sent a secret letter to the generals who brought troops to Chang'an for training. After breaking the encirclement, I believe that within a few days, there will be good news.

At this time, Li Shimin's team back to Chang'an had already crossed the Yellow River, and would return to Chang'an in a few days. However, something strange suddenly appeared in the city of Chang'an.

"Captain, there is a new situation in Chang'an City. The gathering of scholars is getting bigger and bigger. It seems that they have begun to criticize the new imperial examination system." Wu Ying'er entered Sun Xiangfu's study and reported.

After the expansion of the intelligence team, it will not only accept the investigation tasks assigned by Sun Xiangfu at any time, but also report some abnormal situations in the market to him in time.
