Xiao Yu said that there was no money and no food in the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, and Liu Mu shook his head fiercely: "No money and no food?" I don't believe it. ”

"Yes! Let's put this way, compared to Wude's eight years of money and food, it must be a lot more, but when it comes to the consumption of the army now, this is the same as having no money and no food. And there is one thing you don't know, the bureaucrats rebelled, and Lingnan and West fought a battle. The Duke of Yue led 3,000 elites in Lingnan, and the 5,000 elites of the Gu clan won a big victory. But ......"

After saying the words, Xiao Yu stopped talking.

There is no need to explain anymore, Yanagi is well aware of the troubles.

The bureaucrats were active in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, and in the late Han Dynasty, they could be called Baiyue, also known as Nanban.

From the point of view of the bureaucrats, this is a war of aggression and counter-aggression, they want self-government, they want to have more land.

Xiao Yu sat on the beach chair just now and said slowly: "From 'Baipu', 'Yue Nationality' to 'Southwest Yi', and then to 'Wingman'. From Yelang, Dian to the Wuman, Baiman, and then to the Six Edicts of my Tang Dynasty. It's not just a matter of rebellion, it's also a matter of tearing things up internally. ”

"What do you mean is that this is just a small group of people who have gone where they shouldn't be, and it doesn't count as a rebellion?"

"Yes, yes."

Liu Mu took out a jar of juice and poured a glass for Xiao Yu and asked, "Isn't there any conspiracy in this?" ”

"Yes, there is a conspiracy. I've checked the file and the Wenyue Pavilion's report, and I'm more inclined to believe that the Arabs assassinated you. Because there is intelligence suspicion, the Arabs are operating in the Western Regions and have suppressed the Persians, and their next enemy is the Eastern Romans, and now they are inciting the small states in the Western Regions to be hostile to our Tang Dynasty. ”

Xiao Yu looked around, approached Liu Mu and whispered: "The treasury has no money and no food, all the money and grain are reserved for the Western Regions, and soon after we take Gaochang, Tufan will send troops." General Li Ji was transferred to Gaochang, and as soon as the talent arrived, he fought a vicious battle, 8,000 against 30,000, your thorn horse nail made a miraculous achievement, because it was useless to squat in the rain, and we died a lot. ”

"Tufan ......"

Liu Mu's eyes changed, he remembered that it was written in history that Tufan and Datang fought wars for more than a hundred years, and there were eight alliances alone, and there were eight alliances.

Xiao Yu only thought that Liu Mu didn't understand Tufan, and explained to Liu Mu: "Before you knew Princess Changping, you and Tufan have been fighting in the Northwest Tang Dynasty, there are no big battles, but there are countless vicious battles. Why is it said that the western border army is brave, because they have to fight Tufan at least twice a year. ”

Willow was in deep thought.

Xiao Yu continued: "Do you think Tuyuhun's sudden dispatch of troops has nothing to do with Tufan? ”

"Tufan!" Yanagi repeated the name.

Xiao Yu said: "Behind the rebellion of the bureaucrats is the six edicts, and the six edicts are Tufan after the north. Wenyue Pavilion is sending people to the west to inquire whether Tufan has any dealings with the Arabs. ”

Liu Mu remembers that there was a record in the history books that there was a big war between the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food Kingdom, as well as several very small-scale border conflicts.

That would be a hundred years from now.

After the Tang Dynasty continued to expand its territory, when the borders of the two countries were adjacent to each other, war was inevitable.

Now that the exchange between the Tang Dynasty and Rome has made this contact appear in advance, ambitious Arabs have begun to pay attention to this powerful country in the East.

But to say that the Arabs assassinated themselves in the back, Yanagi still didn't believe it, unless there was also a traverser over there.

Spit fan!

Liu Mu has a feeling that the ghost behind this is likely to be Tufan people.

Liu Mu has been thinking, Xiao Yu has been talking, and he doesn't care if Liu Mu has heard everything, Xiao Yu believes that Liu Mu is thinking and absorbing this knowledge.

At this time, Fukuoka.

Cheng Yanjin had already arrived at Tsukushi Island, and he didn't go to anyone, even if he knew that Niu Jinda was on Tsushima Island.

Cheng Yanjin, Su Dingfang, and Hou Junji have led a team to walk here in Fukuoka for more than ten days, and the three of them finally sat together, and in front of the three of them were more than a dozen staff officers who were busy, and they were making sand tables in this area of Fukuoka.

"Lao Cheng, it's not easy to guard here." Hou Junji spoke first.

Su Dingfang, who was sitting at the end, said: "The location chosen by Liu Juma is still quite good, the transportation conditions here are very good, and only one more canal of less than ten miles needs to be built, and five hundred ships can be directly close to the steel mill area." I guess Liu Juma didn't plan to defend it from the moment he considered building a super-large steel mill here. ”

Cheng Yanjin got up and walked to the sand table, stared at the sand table for a long time, and then spoke: "A few of you stop, this sand table will be expanded, plus the surrounding sea area, and then send someone to let Liu Renliang send a staff officer to assist." ”

Hou Junji also walked over: "Lao Cheng, what do you think?" ”

"I also feel like I don't have to guard here. The whole island is ours, as long as we control all the docks, all the landing sites, and then we have the final say at sea, then the defense of the steel mill only needs to consider Xiaoxiao. ”

As soon as Cheng Yanjin said this, Hou Junji's hand slid across the entire coastline, and he kept nodding.

"It seems, you really don't have to guard."

"Yes, the Goguryeo people can't beat me. There were 50,000 Japanese soldiers on Tsushima, and 5,000 soldiers and horses would soon be transferred, and it would be impossible for the Goguryeo people to come from Tsushima at that time. If you go around the sea, if you are transporting troops, the rules are not small, and we have enough ships to ensure that the Goguryeo people will not be able to find out. ”

Cheng Biting Jin, Hou Junji, Su Dingfang.

The task of the three of them was to build a city, and to select more than 40 locations along the entire Fusang Road to prepare for the construction of a future state capital.

Such a big thing is not something that ordinary petty officials can accomplish.

The importance of the city, control, supervision, deterrence. With the presence of the city, it can ensure Datang's control over Fusang Road.

The first city is the super steel mill of Yanagi.

In fact, this site is not because Liumu is smart, but because Liumu was built according to the location of the largest steel mill in later generations, and this steel mill relied on iron ore from the sticks.

Its output, this steel plant alone, is 500 times that of the whole country in the more than 20 years of the Republic of China.

Because at this time, it is easy to transport, the raw materials are sufficient, and there is enough water.

As Cheng Yanjin, Hou Junji, and Su Dingfang, they have never experienced the concept of islands and seas, so they still have the defense system of mountains, rivers, rivers, and mountains in their minds.

Right now, they have to make progress in their studies, and they have to think about the defense of the sea.

Suddenly, Cheng bit Jin and slapped his thigh: "Confused." ”

"Old Cheng?"

Cheng Yanjin pulled Hou Junji and Su Dingfang aside and whispered: "Old Cheng, I suddenly thought just now that the sage asked the three of us to study defense matters, which is the other way around, it is also studying the tactics of attacking land by sea, if you don't understand the tactics of attacking land by sea at all, how can you defend it." ”
