It is not difficult for ordinary people to save rations for one year, but it is difficult to save for two years. When the ministers were about to agree to Yan Huazi, Lu Yangjun said angrily: "Why is it difficult to get two years of food? Today, the common people plant the grain of Dongzhou, and harvest twice a year, and there will be two years of grain in one year. Migrate to Penglai in spring, open up the wilderness in one year, plant the valley of Dongzhou in the next year, and worry about the grain in the next year. ”

"Not two years' bread, but two years' worth of food!" Yan Huazi said. "May I ask Lu Yangjun, how can a person's millet weigh thousands of catties, and a household's millet weighs thousands of catties, how can it be transported to the three islands of Penglai? What is the geometry of the boat in the country? What is the geometry of Dingkou in the country? The rich and noble can build boats, how can the common people go there? ”

"The common people ......," Lu Yangjun sighed when he said this. Because of the valley of Dongzhou, it is not difficult for normal people to accumulate grain for two years, but with the number of boats in the country, it cannot transport everyone. It takes a year to accumulate food, which means that you can only migrate once a year.

Xiong Jing forgot one thing when calculating the boats, that is, although there were 355,000 tons of boats, some of these boats should be left for military and civilian production, and some of them should be used for the transportation of the royal court and the palace, and the most that can really be used is only 200,000 tons.

Thirty-six stones of grain for two years, and twenty-one six stones after the husk was removed, that is, two hundred and ninety-one .six kilograms. With the addition of clothing, utensils, farm tools, seeds, livestock, and poultry, the tonnage occupied by one person is already close to one ton. 200,000 tons can only move more than 200,000 people, and even if 200,000 tons of boats are built in the second year, the number of migrants will only be 400,000 or 500,000 in the second year, and only 700,000 in the third year. 1.4 million people is only one-fifth of the population currently controlled by the Chu State, and even if you only count the eastern land, it is less than half.

"If only the noble and the rich are moved, it will be detrimental to the country." Lan Hao saw Lu Yangjun's words, and bowed down.

"If you don't migrate, the state of Chu will be extinct." This time, it was Li and he spoke. Lu Yangjun is Zuo Sima, his status is higher than him, and his words have more weight. But Lu Yangjun didn't know as much about the details of the entire migration as he did. "Those who migrated in the first year can provide food and clothing for those who migrated in the second year, so from the second year onwards, it is sufficient to bring one year's worth of grain. In this way, the boat moves twice a year.

Today, our Chu country has 355,000 tons of boats, and if we build fishing boats, we can build 200,000 tons of new boats every year. Subtracting the use of military and civilian use and the relocation of government buildings, there will be a surplus of 200,000 tons in the first year, 450,000 tons in the second year, and 650,000 tons in the third year. Nevertheless, if the seafarers can find a shortcut, the boat can return after a month, and the season can be staggered, the first year can have 300,000 tons, the next year 500,000 tons, and the third year 700,000 tons.

With two years' worth of grain, the tonnage accounted for nearly one ton, and 300,000 tons was only 400,000 migrations. And with one year's grain, the common people can get two years of grain for one year, so they can move twice a year. Carry a year's grain, the tonnage is limited to half a ton, 500,000 tons of boats, one million for one migration, two million for two million; In the third year, 700,000 tons of boats can be migrated, and 3.2 million people can be migrated......"

"My lord, the minister thinks that it is enough to bring a year's grain." Douya said loudly. "The valley of Dongzhou is harvested twice a year, as early as February, and the grain is harvested in June; It is planted in September and October, and the grain is harvested before and after the sacrifice.

If you migrate after harvesting millet in October this year, you can plant it in June next year, and you can harvest it in October, and you can plant it again after harvesting it. Even if the acres of cultivated land are insufficient, the island is a no-man's land, and the mountains and fields can be fished and hunted. If other counties are unwilling, if the Ao clan can migrate to Penglai first. ”

If Ao's divisions and brigades are still there, they are all isolated to the west of the water. Osawa was defeated again, and the last bit of blood was buried under the water, and the rest of the clan was either women or children. In order to continue the Ruo Ao bloodline, Douya is willing to be the first to migrate.

"My concubine is also willing to go first." Fei said. The period Sishi is also isolated in Longxi, and his life and death are uncertain.

"I, Cai County, am also willing to go first." Cai Chi continued. But this is no longer him, but more than a dozen people seconded the proposal.

"I think," he said again. "The boat is limited, except for the private boat, the rest of the boat is divided into counties and towns according to the number of soldiers, how to migrate, who migrates, all have the county to discuss and prepare. There are many casualties in the new division brigade, so the new division brigade is based on the number of soldiers today. ”

But all the benefits, the Zheng Dynasty is based on the number of soldiers. This division made counties with few soldiers, such as Ludi, extremely distressed. There were about 800,000 people in Ludidingkou, accounting for a quarter of the population of the Eastern Land, but the Ludi Jiashi accounted for only one-eighth of the Eastern Jiashi.

In addition to the counties with a small proportion of armor, poor counties are also very distressed by this. The migration is handled by the county, then the county has to pay for it, if everything is handled by the imperial court, and those who see it have a share, they can stick to the cheap of the rich county.

The courtiers of Ludi were about to oppose Li Ji's proposal, but Dou Ya preemptively shouted: "This is unfair, there are many casualties in the new division brigade, how can it be based on the number of soldiers today?" ”

"Doctor Dou, there are not many dead in the teacher's brigade?" Li He looked at the aggrieved fighting arrow, and asked coldly.

"I didn't mean that." Douya said busily. "I thought that there were quite a few casualties in the new division brigade. If the teacher brigade is based on the number of soldiers in the past, and the new division brigade is based on today's soldiers, the soldiers may have no heart to fight. ”

"Dare to ask! When did the newly formed division brigade ever have the will to fight? His words became extremely sharp.

After the restoration of Ying, the state of Chu also had political correctness, that is, the people of the old Ying, Fangcheng, and Hanzhong were regarded as Chu people, and the new division brigade was also treated together with the Dongdi division brigade. It is a pity that after nearly fifty years of rule by the Qin State, the people in these places are becoming more and more like the Qin people.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the capital of Chu was first Xuyi in the lower reaches of Huaishui, and then Pengcheng in the upper reaches of Surabaya, rather than Jiying or Jiangling in Jiuying. Zhuguo Gong's Ao Shuai Army conquered the old Ying, that was after the recovery of Eastern Chu and the establishment of Xiongxin as the king of Chu. The snake can't do it without a head, this has the problem of the old Ying's folk customs, and the more reason is that the old Ying's no longer has an organization other than officials, and without an organization, there is no power, and without strength, he can't save himself.

Li Ji's words are the consensus of everyone, but no one dares to say this kind of thing before today. As the commander of the newly organized brigade, Dou Ya has long been aware of this fact, and he himself is still a victim of this kind of political correctness, and he was speechless when he was refuted.

"The king, the minister thinks that the house of the armor must be moved, and the house of the mourners must be moved." After Li finished speaking, the silent Nao Cunning finally spoke.

"The artisan's house will also be moved." Gong Yindao interjected a sentence, which can be regarded as a statement.

"Witchcraft will also be moved." After Taibu Guan was unwilling to be moved, he went out to the road.

"The defeat and the lawyer will also be moved." Meng Zhengyu followed everyone out of the ranks. He also emphasized one sentence in particular: "There must be conflicts in migration, if there is no lawyer, how can you say the law?" ”

"Teachers and students will also move to it." Zhao Huang shouted loudly. Students can migrate with their parents, and many of the teachers in the school are poor students, and these people have no hope of joining the army and migrating.

"Who moves and who doesn't move should be determined by the county." He insisted on his previous thoughts. "The county is willing to move teachers and students, and the county is moved; The county is willing to move the division to defeat the lawyer, and the county is moved. If the boat is insufficient, the rest of the people can ask the master to make their own fishing boat. The fishing boat carries ten tons, the cost is the cheapest, although the price has risen sharply, a piece of eight gold can also.

Twenty people are transported at one time, twice a year, that is, forty people, and eighty people in two years, and one person can be a thousand dollars. If it can be used for three or four years, it can transport more than 100 people, which is only 5 or 600 yuan......"

After some discussion, the scale of migration theoretically reached five or six million, and the cost of migration was theoretically as low as a thousand yuan. More and more courtiers who were faintly opposed to avoiding relocation nodded in agreement, but only a few people such as Yan Huazi were still lamenting that 'those who are rich and noble will move'. This is a fact, even if the proletarian family can afford to build a boat, it will not be able to save a year's ration for a few families.

When the court gradually turned from suspicion to affirmation of the migration, Xiong Jing asked, "Nao Qing thinks that when will the Qin people be able to attack Chu?" ”

"The minister thinks that if I can hold the waterway and the harbor, the Qin people will not be allowed to enter my Chu realm in a short time." Nao said slyly.

"What do you mean, can you not move?" Xiong Jing asked directly.

"Definitely." Nao shook his head slyly. "The minister thinks that my Chu State should abandon the three places of Nanzheng, Shangyu, and Fangcheng at the moment, and retreat to Xiangyang ......"

"Retreat to Xiangyang?!" The court was surprised again. Since the evacuation of Penglai has been discussed, the ministers are not too shocked by the retreat to Xiangyang.

"Yes, yes." Nao said slyly. "Our army is guarding the pass, and the Qin people come from Yishui and are not allowed to enter the old Ying; Our army held Yiling, and the Qin people came from the Yangtze River and were not allowed to enter the old Ying; Our army held Xiangyang, and the Qin people came from the Han River and were not allowed to enter the old Ying;

Our army held Shangcai, and the Qin people came from Rushui and were not allowed to enter the eastern land; Our army held Dun and Xiang, and the Qin people came from Yingshui and were not allowed to enter the east; Our army held the girder, and the Qin people came from the chasm and were not allowed to enter the eastern land; Our army held Taoyi, and the Qin people came from Nanji and were not allowed to enter the east; Our army held the Muling Pass, and the Qin people came from the Qi State and were not allowed to enter the eastern land; Our army held Langya, Huaikou, and Zhufang ......, and the Qin people came from the sea and were not allowed to enter the east.

Although there are many Qin people's war boats, but I block the waterway and sea routes, and the old Ying, Dongdi can still defend it. However, there are more than a dozen places to guard, but there are less than 150,000 soldiers. Although the waterway is blocked, the land road is also open. Therefore, the minister thinks that he should also guard and move. ”

"But what's important?" Although Xiong Jing had an idea in his heart, he still had to ask Nao to be cunning and let him say it in the court.

"The minister thinks ......" Nao looked at Xiong Jing helplessly, and the courtiers in the court all looked at him. Xiong Jing's sentence is actually asking if the Chu State can hold it, and if it can't hold it, that is, it will be relocated; If you can keep it, then keep it first.

He first thought back to the current situation, thinking that the Chu land crisscrossed by rivers was definitely more than the eight waterways he just said, and thinking that bypassing the Jiaolai Peninsula of Qi was in front of the Qin people was the coastline of Chu State, which was two thousand miles long, he didn't dare to gamble with a country after all, and said helplessly: "When the relocation is not serious." ”

As he spoke, Xiong Jing heard a heavy sigh from the court.
