At the end of the song, Wei Ba sent Jiang Wan to the door, smiling like a flower on his face, revealing affection from the inside out, and he looked at Lai Yan with disdain. Wei Ba looked at him in his eyes, but he smiled more and more sincerely, until he returned to the inner room, and the smile did not dissipate.

"So happy?" Xiahou Hui looked at Wei Ba with some concern. It's okay to put it in front of people, if you really take this as a good thing, then Wei Ba's IQ is worth worrying about.

"Weishenme unhappy?" Wei Ba sat down on the edge of the couch and looked around: "Where is my son?" ”

"I'm afraid that I will make you sleep, so let Eminem carry him to the side yard."

"Oh." Wei Ba smacked his lips and said with palpitations: "This kid ...... The voice was also a little louder. ”

"Isn't it good to have a loud voice, a loud voice means that the body is strong and the innate foundation is good."

"It's good, but when I cry in the middle of the night, I think I'm on the battlefield and habitually want to get a knife." Wei Ba hugged Xiahou Hui's waist and stroked her buttocks: "Besides, what should I do if others misunderstand?" ”

"More and more nonsense." Xiahou Hui said angrily: "To get down to business, do you really plan to let Jiang Wan stay here?" ”

"It depends, if he knows each other, let him stay here. If you don't know each other, you don't need me to say it, someone will naturally drive him away. Wei Ba said with a smile: "Besides, I also need to let the prime minister know that I am not easy here, don't let him expect too much from me and treat me as the captain of Tuntian." ”

Xiahou Hui's eyes flashed: "Do you really want to go to Xiangyang?" ”

Wei Ba frowned and groaned for a moment. "It's time to go, but not now. Don't look at how many men I have. I can only stay in the south of the Yangtze River, and if I cross the Yangtze River, I am afraid that I will have to go halfway, and after crossing the Han River, there will probably be few people. Now that the foundation is not stable, it is not advisable to act rashly, so prepare more time and lay a solid foundation. He looked at Xiahou Hui and asked, "Can Wei hold on?" ”

Xiahou Hui shook his head. "I don't know very well, but judging by the situation. It should be more difficult. ”

Wei Ba nodded. Didn't say anything.

……

The New Year is approaching, Jingzhou after the war has stabilized, every household is busy celebrating the New Year, and there is also a festive atmosphere in Lingling City. After becoming Wei Ba's camp. Lingling ushered in a rare prosperity. Tens of thousands of immigrants. The cargo ships transported from Jiaozhou to the Central Plains quickly brought a lot of business opportunities to Quanling. After farming, you can earn a lot of money by doing odd jobs on the docks. Those who provide services to merchants make a lot of money. The waist is bulging, the voice of people will be louder, busy people can be seen in the streets and alleys, and various languages can be heard, and Lingling City has initially shown signs of prosperity.

At the end of the month, Liao Li, who temporarily received the history of Jiaozhou Thorn, rushed over from Yulin on a grain ship. While Nanhai County was still in the hands of the Wu people, Liao Li was temporarily stationed in Yulin County, and his main focus was on the trade route through the Lingqu.

As soon as he saw Wei Ba, Liao Li excitedly took a burden, grabbed a handful of rice from it, and spread it in front of Wei Ba: "General, look. ”

Wei Ba's eyes lit up: "From Rinan?" ”

"Well, I specially sent people to the area of Rinan and Jiuzhen to investigate, this kind of rice from Linyi should meet the requirements of the general, drought tolerance, short growth period, no more than 50 days from planting to harvest, and the land requirements are not high. It is suitable for the characteristics of many mountains in the area of Wuling and Lingling. ”

Wei Ba nodded again and again with satisfaction. He studied agricultural machinery, and he was not proficient in the cultivation of improved seeds, and he knew the name of Champa rice, but he did not know where it was introduced, probably in Vietnam. In later generations, Vietnam is still the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Ninan of the Han Dynasty, and he does not know which county Champa rice came from. However, everything is only afraid of having a heart, Wei Ba confessed this matter to Liao Li, and Liao Li immediately sent a large number of people to cast a net in a large area to find rice seeds that meet this characteristic in the three counties, and the effort paid off, and finally got what might be the famous Champa rice in later generations.

"Liao Gong, you have made a great contribution." Wei Ba quipped: "If this rice can be fully promoted in Jingnan and Jiaozhou, this will be the new granary of the Han Dynasty in the future, and it may even surpass Chengdu and Hanzhong." ”

"There's so much potential?" Liao Li was a little surprised: "The yield of this kind of rice is not very high, and it is still inferior to some high-yield rice in Nanjun." ”

"What kind of land those barbarians will plant, they are looking to the heavens to harvest." Wei Ba disagreed: "You can't all follow theirs, you have to use the intensive cultivation of our Han people, and extensive management is not possible." When the time comes, you will be assured that you will not be disappointed. Liao Gong, the people take food as the sky, the country is agriculture-oriented, and the introduction of more high-yield varieties is definitely a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people. In the future, your Liao Guild will go down in history because of these good governance. ”

Liao Li laughed. I have to say that the lethality of the famous people on the readers is very powerful. Liao Li was in a happy mood, laughed for a while, and changed his words: "I heard that Jiang Wan is here?" ”

"Well, on the orders of the prime minister, come and help me govern Quanling." Wei Ba said with a smile.

"Humph!" Liao Li sneered unceremoniously. Although he was unwilling to tear his face with Zhuge Liang, let alone have any disobedience, he was very sensitive to this kind of political struggle that might threaten his position. "Leave him?"

"I can't refute the Prime Minister's order, if he can be suitable, I estimate that the government affairs of the three counties of Jingzhou will be handled by him." Wei Ba touched his chin and looked at Liao Li: "I think the prime minister's meaning should be to let me concentrate on military affairs." ”

"And what does the general mean?" Liao Li asked rhetorically.

"I'm not interested in government either. No matter how difficult the country is, only military affairs can calm the world. After the Battle of Linhe, although the army has already taken shape, there is still some distance from the Hundred Battles Heroic Division, and I should indeed focus on military affairs. ”

Liao Li smiled slightly, he understood what Wei Ba meant. In fact, Wei Ba is currently stationed in the south of the Yangtze River, training troops in Tuntian, instead of waving his army to the north, and the strategy of responding to the Guanzhong battlefield has become a reality, and Liao Li has played a great role. They may have many different views, but in terms of their views on the current situation, they all have something in common, they all believe that the Guanzhong battlefield will be a protracted war, even if Wei Ba goes north, if there is no stable food supply, it will be difficult for the army to hold out for too long, rather than this, it is better to stay in Jiangnan, digest the three counties of Jingzhou and the seven counties of Jiaozhou that have just been recovered, and at the same time contain the forces of Wu, so that Zhuge Liang can let go and Cao Rui fight, and divide the victory and defeat.

Wei Ba said that he should focus his energy on military affairs, which is certainly not wrong. But how can the military and the people be able to distinguish clearly. Those barbarian soldiers under Wei Ba were willing to fight with Wei Ba, on the one hand, this was due to the prestige of the god general, which was spiritually attractive, and on the other hand, it was also forced to be helpless and had material pressure. If they don't fight with Wei Ba, they have only two choices, either accept Sun Quan's oppression, or hide in the mountains and survive.

Before Wei Ba came, they only had these two choices, and now, Wei Ba gave them a third option, although it was similar to Sun Quan's approach, but Wei Ba's exploitation of them was relatively light, and he tried many ways to let them live a more haode life, they would flock to them, like a shadow.

The so-called civil affairs are actually military affairs, because the thirty or forty thousand barbarian soldiers under Wei Ba are actually people, no matter who is in charge of the government, the stability of these thirty or forty thousand people must be ensured first. At this point, Liao Li has the most thorough understanding.

"Then the general can train the troops with confidence, and leave the rest to me." Liao Li shrugged his shoulders and smiled disapprenousively: "Anyway, they don't like me, it doesn't hurt if I am a villain again." ”

Wei Ba laughed: "The promise of a thousand husbands is not as good as the promise of Liao Gong." ”

……

The news of Liao Li's arrival in Quanling soon reached Jiang Wan's ears. Jiang Wan was busy these days, not only to discuss with the big families in Lingling, asking them to contribute money and grain to support the war in Guanzhong, but also to negotiate with them to redivide Lingling's fields and various emerging interests. Nowadays, Quanling has become an important trade route to Jiaozhou, and the abundance of commercial profits can be imagined, and everyone wants to get a piece of the pie. There are many affairs, but the time given by Wei Ba is short, and he wants to finish it before the Chinese New Year's Eve feast, although Jiang Wan is familiar with the situation in Zero Ling, he is also busy hitting the back of his head, and he does not have time to pay much attention to Liao Li's arrival in Quanling.

In the blink of an eye, Chinese New Year's Eve is here. According to the usual rules, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the local big families and powerful people will go to the Taishou Mansion to accompany the Taishou to observe the New Year, send New Year's gifts to the Taishou and the officials of the Taishou Mansion, sum up the achievements of the year, look forward to the future, and divide and adjust the interests in the midst of the staggered planning. Now that Lingling has returned to Shu Han, Lingling Taishou, who was appointed by Wu Guo, has long since run away, Shu Han has not yet been appointed, and now the government affairs are temporarily led by Jiang Wan, but everyone knows that the real supreme military and political chief is the young Fuyi general Wei Ba.

Therefore, General Fuyi's Xiangguan became the liveliest place on Chinese New Year's Eve. From the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month to the gods, the city is ready to open. On Chinese New Year's Eve, as soon as the sun turned west, people rushed over one after another.

The first to come were of course Wei Ba's cronies, generals and meritorious soldiers who were invited to participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve feast. Except for those who had to stick to their posts and couldn't leave, almost everyone who could come came. These people brought gifts and went straight into the inner hall to meet Wei Ba and Xiahou Hui. Although Xiahou Hui is a concubine, they all know that Xiahou Hui's status in Wei Ba's mind is very ordinary, no less than Guan Feng, so they respect Xiahou Hui very much.

The room was very popular, and Zhu Wu, who came from Yanguan, came to Wei Ba's face: "General, I heard that the land will be divided after the beginning of the year?" ”

Wei Ba glanced at him and said with a smile: "Your ears are very smart, you can hear this news as far away as Yanguan?" ”

"Yan Guan can also be regarded as the Lingling Realm, most of my subordinates are tribes in the Lingling Realm, how can I not care about this matter."

Wei Ba smiled: "Don't worry, this matter will be discussed tonight, and if you have any opinions at that time, just say it to your face, don't hide it." ”

Zhu Wu comprehended and bowed down...... (To be continued......)
