April 13.
It's a beautiful day in spring. The weather in Lin'an City has turned warm and the environment is comfortable.
After the news of the all-round Southern expedition was conveyed, Lufei and Luoxin took the lead today. Their goal is to wipe out the merchant Council in the shortest time.
According to the plan, after clearing the cities on the offensive route, they will fight a decisive battle with the merchant Council around Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Nanchang and Dali.
After all, these four cities are the most important cities of the merchant Council. Once these big cities are captured, the merchant Council will have no place to stay.
On April 21, Lufei's first army of Huben arrived in Shaoxing, and Luoxin arrived in Huizhou on April 25. The all-out war against the merchant Council officially started
Qingzhou.
Xiao Ming outlined two attack routes on the map of Dayu state, which is exactly the direction of Lu Fei and Luo Xin's attack.
Niu's decision was not made on a whim, but through close discussion with him.
For him, the merchant Council at that time was just a puffy person. The reason was very simple. Cao Kun had no solid industrial foundation, which meant that he could not continuously provide weapons and ammunition for his soldiers. Secondly, he did not have a mature tax system. If the king of Qinglong did not accept food, it would only aggravate the financial crisis. Thirdly, the merchant Council seemed to gather a large number of people in a short time There are a lot of soldiers, but they lack training and are just a mob.
Therefore, in the face of such businessmen, the Council must not give them a chance to breathe for a moment, so that they will soon collapse.
"I don't know what those rich people will think when they know that the imperial court will give their land to the people and sell it. "Pang Yukun stands behind Xiao Ming.
After the Yangtze River business district was finalized, it soon aroused extensive discussion in Qingzhou. Many businessmen have moved to Songjiang, Lin'an and Suzhou to build factories.
There are also many businessmen consulting and buying the courtyards, manors and shops hung up by the imperial court. Everything is going on according to his plan.
"It must be heartbreaking. When they realize they will never get their things back, there will be something wrong with the merchant Council." Xiao Ming smiles and speaks confidently and firmly.
Pang Yukun nodded, "it's just the so-called misfortune and blessing. Although the merchant Council is a great disaster, it gives us the reason to completely eliminate the southern aristocracy. In this way, the reform will be more thorough in the south."
"That's right. That's why I want to build the Yangtze River business district. When I occupy Guangzhou, I also want to build the Guangzhou Business District, so that the industry and Commerce of Dayu will continue from north to south." Xiao Ming looks at the map, and a blueprint for the future of the state of Chongqing emerges in his mind.
He has been longing for the unification of this country for too long. Now he finally sees the hope that Dayu will play a more powerful role under his leadership and become one of the world leaders.
Pang Yukun's eyes were warm. He recalled all kinds of things in the past nine years. This year, he had been with Xiao Ming for ten years.
In the past ten years, the industry and Commerce of Qingzhou developed from nothing, from existence to strength. In the hands of this emperor, the state of Dayu radiated increasingly strong vitality.
Now he is very glad that he is with the right person. It is because of his identity with Xiao Ming that he can witness the day of the reunification of Dayu. In the future, he will accompany Xiao Ming to witness Dayu's going to the top of the world.
Xiao Ming's eyes are always on the map. Instead of noticing Pang Yukun's look, he continues to ask, "by the way, what happened to the population migration during this period? "
referring to this, Pang Yukun concentrated his mind. When he went down to the south, he once promised to migrate five million people to Guandong." so far, the lower officials have migrated 700000 people from Chu, and it should not be difficult to fight down the whole south. "
" 700000? Well, it's already pretty good. " Xiao Ming expressed satisfaction.
In fact, he is very worried about the situation in Guandong. Although he left Qi Guangyi in Guandong, he is sometimes very weak in the face of the vast territory and sparse population in Guandong.
From time to time, the barbarian cavalry would go around the city to attack the people in Kanto and snatch their harvest. After one million slaves were transformed into Kanto people, their distribution on such a large land was very weak.
Because of this, he had to immigrate five million people. In this way, six cities could divide one million people equally, and he could organize an effective militia to plunder the barbarians.
Moreover, he has begun to consider giving some of the eliminated weapons to the militia and the guard house, so that they can play a greater role.
In addition, the immigrant population is also for the industrial construction of Kanto. Without sufficient population, it is difficult to develop the industry in this era, and Kanto is an important place for agriculture and resources.
"It's all because of this war. Otherwise, these people would not like to move. Now many people who move call it Chuang Guandong." Pang Yukun said with a smile.
Xiao Ming nodded slightly. Although the war was made by him, it was inevitable. Sometimes it was inevitable to sacrifice the interests of some people for the sake of national strategic victory. Although it was cruel, the imperial court could only do it with a firm heart.
Because compared with this, it is more important for a country and a nation to survive in the world. Otherwise, if we lose Kanto, more people will suffer."It's a good word. Let's add it to the secret guard's propaganda. "Xiao Ming said lightly.
Looking away from the map, Xiao Ming continued: "in the south, the soldiers are fighting bloody battles. The only thing we can do now is to provide them with high-quality weapons, ammunition and food. Pang Shoufu, what's the matter with this military can now? "
" in addition to the first batch of glass cans, the tins we sent to the south are all iron cans. In order to strengthen the army's logistics supply capacity, the imperial court Qingzhou government has built six military food factories. In addition to the tins, the lower officials also give them the food formula provided by the emperor. "
Xiao Ming is relieved. For him, long-term quality military food is very important, because it can not only reduce the logistics pressure of soldiers, but also is a necessary condition for fleet expeditions.
In modern times, the West has been able to colonize Asia from afar. Besides warships, the canned food also plays an important role.
In addition to the canning, Xiao Ming also gave the technology of compressed biscuits to the military food factory. In fact, the technology of biscuits and compressed biscuits is very simple. Biscuits are nothing more than a mixture of sugar, flour and eggs.
The compressed biscuit is just to crush the biscuit and compress it again to become a more compact piece.
In addition to compressed biscuits, instant noodles are closely followed by compressed biscuits. This kind of military food can also be easily realized at present. After all, simple instant noodles are just fried after noodles are cooked.
Xiao Ming does not seek to achieve modern effects, as long as the soldiers can be satisfied on the battlefield.
