In the North Palace of Luoyang City, Hua'an is dealing with political affairs in the main hall, and Hua'an is very happy about the gradual recovery of the productive forces around Luoyang, according to the current productive forces around Luoyang, it is already completely self-sufficient, and this situation was unimaginable before.

The productivity around Luoyang City, the reason why it will achieve such rapid development, of course, is because Hua'an has invested a lot of capital here, in order to develop agriculture here, Hua'an will Guanzhong most of the agricultural and water conservancy talents, all transferred here, and, in order to make up for the lack of manpower, many people in Hebei have moved here, so that Luoyang is full of talents, the people are sufficient, and these favorable conditions have provided a very huge development impetus for the recovery of the productive forces in Luoyang.

"Your Majesty, the agricultural production in the Luoyang area is enough for self-sufficiency, and there is even a little surplus, I believe that it will not be long before Hebei can be supported, and at that time, there will be no need for grain and grass support in Guanzhong and Shuzhong." One of his subordinates said happily.

Hua An nodded, and said with a straight face: "That's right!" As long as the grain produced in the area of Luoyang can meet the consumption of the people and the army, our army will not have to transport grain from Guanzhong all the way, and the king believes that this wish will soon be realized. After speaking, his face was full of joy.

"Your Majesty, now the ditches in the Luoyang area have been almost developed, and you only need to gradually increase the arable land to produce more grain, and your subordinates ask for orders to go to the area of Yecheng, Hebei, I heard that there is still a thousand miles of red land, and the people are hungry!" Li Shuqu, a water conservancy talent, hugged his fists and asked for his life.

Hua An was very happy when he heard this, nodded, and said, "Okay, Li Shuqu, restore agricultural production in Hebei." It's all up to you, and you must not let this king down! ”

"The king can rest assured that in two or three years at most, Hebei's agriculture will be self-sufficient and will no longer need supplies from Guanzhong." Li Shuqu swore an oath.

Hua An nodded, and said with a straight face: "Okay." Li Shuqu, you go and prepare, you must go to Hebei within three days, this king will allocate three hundred personal guards, responsible for protecting you to Yecheng, and obey your dispatch, in addition, who else do you need to accompany you, how many silver taels do you need. This king will do his best to satisfy you. After speaking, he looked at Li Shuqu.

"Yes, Your Majesty, your subordinates retire." Li Shuqu clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and left the main hall, and went to prepare for Hebei.

After Li Shuqu left, Hua An looked at the generals and said loudly: "Although Li Shuqu is a literati, he is the top of several generals!" If there is no Li Shuqu, we will vigorously develop agriculture. How can the officers and men of our army have no worries about food and clothing, and if there is no sufficient supply of food and grass? It is impossible for our army to lay down such a large piece of land, and the ancient sages have said that agriculture is the foundation of the country, which is really not bad at all! After speaking, he nodded slightly.

"Yes! Now we have more and more abundant food and grass, O king. In a few years, several of our large granaries will be filled! Wang San was naturally very happy.

"Looks like we're going to build a bigger granary, Your Majesty! Hahaha! Zhuge Xiong also laughed happily.

Hua An smiled and said, "If the granary is all full." Naturally, we will continue to build granaries, but when there is more grain and grass, the common people will not starve, especially the young children, most of whom will not die of hunger, so that the population will inevitably increase greatly, and if the population increases greatly, our strength will become stronger, and when the time comes, we will not only continue to expand the fields, but also open up more land. ”

"Does the king mean to recover Youzhou and Pingzhou?" Wang San asked softly.

Hua An shook his head, and said: "Youzhou and Pingzhou were originally the land of my Great Jin, and our army's capture of Youzhou and Pingzhou is to regain lost territory, how can it be regarded as opening up more land?" After speaking, he looked at his subordinates.

Obviously, Hua'an's goal is not only to recover Youzhou and Pingzhou, but also to open up more land to greatly increase the land area of the Great Jin.

Seeing that Hua'an had the ambition to open up more land, all the generals were shocked, they didn't expect that Hua'an's ambition was so big.

"Your Majesty, the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty is already large enough, besides, the east is the sea, the south is a wild land, the north is a bitter cold land, there is a large desert in the west, and there is no anointed land on all sides, so why should I expand the territory of the Great Jin?" Wang San said puzzled.

"Yes! What is the use of these lands, O king, which are barren, savage, and bitter on all sides? Zhuge Xiong echoed.

Obviously, they all think that only the land of the Great Jin Dynasty is the anointed land, and ignore the anointed land around them, of course, with the concept of people in this era, they will not understand the importance of the land, nor do they understand the real situation around them.

Hua An looked at the generals, and said: "Generals, with the situation we are currently facing, we cannot expand in all directions, this king means that once the King of Yan and the King of South are taken by us, then, we can expand the land in four directions at the same time, the generals may feel that there are wild and bitter cold lands on all sides, but this king can tell you, things are not what you think, if the surrounding is really useless land, then, why are there so many barbarians in these lands?" Moreover, these barbarians often have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, once they attack my Great Jin, it will be a great threat, and if my Great Jin occupies all these lands, then the people who grow on these lands will be the people of my Great Jin, so it is the long-term policy of peace and stability. ”

When the generals heard this, they were all dumbfounded, they didn't think about it so long-term, after all, people have no long-term worries, and now, the king of Nan and the king of Yan are threatening Luoyang City, and the generals naturally have no heart to think about the future.

"Your Majesty, since we can't open up land to Siyi for the time being, then let's not think about these things for now, let's discuss more, how to deal with the threat of King Yan and King Nan!" Wang San said loudly.

Wang San spoke the hearts of all the generals, after all, these generals were all loyal to Hua'an, they were all very concerned about Huan Wen and Murong Jun's threat to Luoyang City, and they were not very interested in conquering the land of Siyi.

When Hua An heard this, he also felt that he was a little far away, after all, this was not the time to discuss with them the conquest of Siyi, and it was the problem they should consider to deal with Huan Wen and Murong Jun's threat wholeheartedly.

"Report, Your Majesty, General Xie has an urgent letter." At this moment, Xie Ai's urgent letter was delivered to the main hall.

"Quick, bring it up." Seeing Xie Ai's urgent letter, Hua An hurriedly ordered.

Soon, Xie Ai's handwritten letter was sent to Hua An, and Hua An immediately opened it to watch, seeing Xie Ai's request to expand and transform the chariot troops, and he analyzed the shape of Hebei very thoroughly, so he felt that Xie Ai's request should be understood.

However, Hua'an had already sent Li Shuqu to Hebei to take charge of building water conservancy and vigorously developing agriculture, and the development of various agricultural constructions required a great deal of manpower and financial resources.

Agriculture in the Luoyang area has just developed, and commerce has just begun to prosper, because Hua'an has adopted a policy of swaying taxes, therefore, the fiscal revenue is not very high, and when building the North Palace, it has spent a lot of money, at this time, if it is to support Li Shuqu and Xie Ai's two large-scale plans at the same time, Hua'an feels that the financial resources are really unbearable, but no matter which plan is abandoned, Hua'an feels very pity, hesitates for this, and frowns.

"Your Majesty, what did General Xie say in his letter?" Seeing Hua An's brows tightened, Wang San hurriedly asked.

Hua An Zhengse said: "General Xie plans to expand the chariot troops to deal with the threat of Yan State, but this king has already asked Li Shuqu to go to Hebei to build water conservancy, if General Xie expands the chariot troops, the financial resources will be insufficient, and if the tax is increased, it will make the people very dissatisfied, so this king's heart is very hesitant!" After speaking, he looked at his subordinates.

"Your Majesty, there must be a lot of surplus financial resources in Shuzhong and Guanzhong, and the king can immediately convey an order to let Shuzhong and Guanzhong allocate a batch of food and salaries to Luoyang City, so that the problem of insufficient financial resources can be solved." Wang Sansheng built yì road.

"Yes! Your Majesty, as long as you open your mouth, General Lei and General Tie in Shu will not object, and General Wang in Guanzhong will not object, so the problem of insufficient financial resources can be well solved. Zhuge Xiong also built yì Dao in the same way.

When Hua An heard this, he said softly: "Shuzhong and Guanzhong, there is a lot of surplus financial resources, this king naturally knows, however, the road in Guanzhong is far away, and Shuzhong is even farther, and the construction of water conservancy and the expansion of chariot troops are urgent, and this king is afraid that far water will not quench the thirst of the near!" After speaking, he frowned.

Hearing this, Chen Poyu pondered for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, there will be a way in the end, maybe it will work, but I don't know if it's appropriate." ”

"General Chen, what can be done, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Hua An hurriedly asked.

Chen Poyu hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, General Xie expands the chariot troops, and the most financial resources required are to build chariots and weapons, since the financial resources are insufficient at this time, can the five thousand chariots and the combat weapons under the command of the last general be transferred to Hebei?" ”

"Big brother, in this way, half of the soldiers of our army will completely lose their combat effectiveness!" Chen Zhanhu seemed a little reluctant.

Chen Poyu explained: "Second brother, you don't have to be nervous, this is just a temporary expedient measure, when the food and salaries in Guanzhong and Shuzhong arrive in Luoyang City, our army can rebuild chariots and weapons." (To be continued......)
