Chapter 151 You do the first day of the lunar month and I do the fifteenth day of the lunar month

The Han people rescued from Tubo all arrived in Yezhou with the brigade. To these people, Yezhou had never even heard of the name, so it must be a newly built wilderness land.

However, when they left the chessboard valley, they were all stunned. What appeared before them was a dark road. This road was naturally mixed with asphalt and then passed through the rolling and rolling road. The road was about six meters wide and extended to the distance, as if it was extending to the official road in the horizon, a four-wheeled carriage flying on the highway.

These people were pulled in front of a puddle of stones. Here is a hot spring, with natural hot springs steaming. These people, men and women, were forced to take a shower.

In fact, there is no way to do this. Chen Ying found that the Han slaves who were robbed to Tubo were really miserable. They were ragged and had some clothes. The key is that many of these Han slaves didn't even have clothes. Even if there were clothes, most of them were taken off the corpses. It was okay, but they were rotten corpses. Compared with human muscles, the clothes were stronger. Even if the corpses were already blooming into white bones, the clothes on the bones could still be clearly visible.

A strong smell of sulfur came to their noses. They walked nearly two thousand miles of mountain road, and were already exhausted at this moment. Not to mention forcing, they were willing to take a bath. But the bath water was too hot. These people gritted their teeth and screamed. However, the sharp-eyed people discovered that these servants in front of the female pond and the man in front of the male pond were holding iron hooks, wrapped their clothes, all of them, and put them away in the car.

Clothes may be their only property. Seeing their clothes being pulled into a cart, these Han people burst into tears and were naked, trying to snatch their clothes back. However, they saw the bow and arrow on the side and subconsciously pretended not to see them.

When they finished taking a shower, someone threw them brand new clothes and said, "Choose your own numbers, and choose three types of large, medium and small. If you really feel uncomfortable wearing them, then just put them in it first!"

There are four sets of clothes for each person, two summer clothes, and two cotton coats. The quality of these clothes is not very good. They are all made of fine linen and woven cloth, which makes it a little uncomfortable to wear when worn. But now they dare not pay too much attention.

The officer leading the team said to the people who have changed their appearance: "Stay here to stay here with peace of mind, serve three meals a day at a time. Don't expect how much you eat, but at least you won't be hungry! In a few days, someone will come to count and register. Those under the age of thirteen will go to school to study, young and strong will go to work, the elderly, weak, women and children will be attentive. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can always survive!"

The people nodded like chickens pecking at rice. Then they learned the power of the so-called "Don't expect how good you can eat" in Xizhou.

The breakfast was steamed buns, buns, a little pickles, and a cup of tea soup with cheese for each person.

Lunch is three dishes and one soup, shredded radish or shredded pumpkin, stewed meat and vegetables with winter melon or radish, as well as egg soup or dumpling soup.

Dinner was still three dishes and one soup, but the soup was replaced with broth.

All the people burped and said that their living standards had already been aligned with the leaders of the Tubo tribe and their leaders.

Originally, when the spring was just beginning, Chen Ying reclaimed more than 3 million acres of land in 19 prefectures and 104 counties in Xizhou Road. However, as Liu Tong and Xunxiang adopted guerrilla tactics on the Tubo snowfield, they did not fight head-on with the Tubo people, and specifically targeted the empty places of the Tubo people. Moreover, in Liu Tong and Xunxiang, they also established a joint front with the Tubo people.

Liu Tong even took out the slogan Chen Ying shouted in the Hetao area at the foot of Helan Mountain: "Kill the nobles and divide cattle and sheep!" Liu Tong and his team led the elite Beiwei Army and Xueyuan Alliance soldiers to defeat the Tubo tribe army, took away some of the captured cattle, sheep and horses, and then released all the slaves in the Tubo tribe, and distributed the uncarried food to them, cattle and sheep.

As Liu Tong and Xunxiang and others became more and more powerful, the Han slaves rescued were more and more. In addition to the initial more than 200,000 slaves, Liu Tong later sent a total of 160,000 to 170,000 Han people one after another.

However, the time for spring plowing had passed, so Chen Ying had to ask someone to divide them into, disrupt them, form villages one by one, plant hemp, cotton, and develop textiles.

Among the rescued Han people, women accounted for the vast majority. In the small peasant economy era, men farmed and women weaved, and women were qualified weaving workers. Chen Yingrang would build a weaving machine and spinning wheel to let them spin yarn.

In fact, the clothes these people now wear are not pure linen cloth, but cloth made of a mixture of hemp and wool. This kind of cloth is not only strong, but also has good warmth.

While reclaiming wasteland in Xizhou, Chen Ying developed the textile industry of Xizhou Road. Now, no matter the ethnic group of Xizhou Road, there is no other intention. Because Chen Ying bought wool from them. The wool is garbage in the hands of nomadic peoples. When no one bought it, they could not make a penny. However, with the rise of the textile industry, wool has increased from one cent per pound to two cents.

In other words, a herdsman can earn hundreds of cents more, buy clothes, and prevent the whole family from getting frozen.

The textiles of Xizhou Road are not only consumed internally, but also sold to the outside world. Gradually, Xizhou Road gradually formed a series of basic industries, such as salt making in Yanze, Jinman, Muli, Wensu's steel, and countless asphalt-built official roads.

Some tribes and villages that did not exist in the entire Xizhou Road gradually appeared. These so-called savages are tribes with weak power and hidden in the Tianshan Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, and Altai Mountains. They saw that there was no war in Xizhou Road. As long as they paid part of the tax to the Great Protectorate established by the Tang Dynasty, they could live a very prosperous life, and no one could annex and expel them at will.

...

"The north wind blows the white grass on the ground, and snow falls in August. Suddenly, it is like a spring breeze coming, and thousands of pear blossoms bloom."

As August entered, the weather in Xizhou finally turned colder, and of course it also entered the harvest season. In the fifth year of Wude, most of the 104 counties in Xizhou Road, 19 prefectures and 104 counties achieved good harvests.

A total of 3.5 million mu of grain fields were earned, with a total income of more than 6 million stones of grain. Although the output was much worse than that of the Central Plains, Xizhou Road was only more than 500,000 households and a population of more than one million. These six million stones of grain could basically meet population consumption.

Moreover, Xizhou Road has cattle, sheep, horses, and a large amount of meat. In the Central Plains, it can be sold for more than 20 yuan per pound of mutton. In Xizhou Road, the mutton is very cheap, and there are also pigs, chickens, ducks and other poultry fed collectively by Zhechong Prefectures.

Chen Ying plagiarized a fine tradition of the People's Liberation Army in the later generations to the Tang Dynasty. Each brigade under the jurisdiction of Zhechong Prefecture had dozens of people and hundreds of people. Only the nineteen Zhechong Prefectures in Xizhou Road, only 19 Zhechong Prefectures had raised no less than 3,000 pigs. After more than half a year of growth, the piglets had reached as many as 100 kilograms. As for chickens and ducks, there were also very considerable numbers. If Chen Ying had not been worried about the occurrence of avian influenza and plague, he would have dared to operate Xizhou Road like the south of the Yangtze River outside the border.

According to incomplete statistics, Zhechong Prefectures on Xizhou Road can basically satisfy the self-sufficiency of vegetables and self-sufficiency of meat (pork).

The cotton that Chen Ying vigorously promoted also achieved a bumper harvest. Because of this season, the role of cotton has not been developed yet. For the first time, the people of Xizhoudao planted the cotton that Chen Daduhu asked to grow, they had neither experience nor thought of managing it. They basically went into the ground and ignored it. They were brutal growth, but fortunately, due to the disease and pest disasters, and the weather was dry and rainy, and the cotton grew well.

More than 300,000 acres of cotton are actually just the result of symbolic planting by more than 300,000 households on Xizhou Road, but they have harvested a total of 500,000 kilograms of cotton, enough to create more than 500,000 sets of bedding or millions of sets of cotton coats.

Nowadays, in addition to textiles, another flagship product of Xizhou Road is cotton coats or quilts. However, because the quilts are warm and have no odor, of course, in this era, due to the backward technology, neither grass nor down can be made without odor like in later generations.

Now, a cotton coat or a quilt is sold to the public for up to ten tons. But this is still in short supply.

Minaval finally left Gaoche City and returned to the Sassanian Empire. Although Chen Ying did not let her take away Modao, Mingguang armor or hook and sickle as she wished, she sold her a full 100,000 kilograms of steel. However, Chen Ying was really shady. He emptied the caravan Minaval at one time and would provide 100,000 kilograms of steel for the price of 15,000 silver coins. At this price, how much does the Sassanian Empire need and how much will he provide.

Because of the situation, the powerful Western Turks still have 200,000 to 300,000 cavalry, which is not something he can swallow in one bite now. Chen Ying needs to use the power of the Sassanian Empire to consume the power of the Western Turks.

Once the Sassanid cavalry with sufficient steel and excellent armor would definitely teach the Western Turks how to be human.

In the future, the United States did not do much such a thing, and later generations called it agent war.

Chen Ying is now going to use steel to buy him time.

Although Chen Ying was on Xizhou Road, he was closely watching what happened in the Central Plains. However, due to the delay in the news, the news that Chen Ying received was delayed for three months.

Princess Pingyang was assassinated by the Jieyu River, which made Chen Ying very worried. He wrote to Shan Xiongxin, who was in Lingzhou, and asked Shan Xiongxin to send a team of elite soldiers to return to Chang'an to secretly protect Li Xiuning's safety.

At this moment, there was an information that made Chen Ying feel strange.

That is, Yang Wengan ordered a total of 500,000 kilograms of steel from Lingzhou.

Steel is a very sensitive strategic material. Any large-scale transaction will be very careful. Once the transaction is given to the enemy country, it will definitely not be worth the loss.

Although Li Daozhen sold steel to Qingzhou, it was purchased by more than a dozen companies, Li Daozhen did not ignore the after-sales service, but in secret tracking, these steels slowly gathered in Zhang Jingshan's hands.

This Zhang Jingshan is Yang Zhida's close friend. With Zhang Jingshan's financial resources, he bought 180 kilograms of steel. Chen Ying believed that, but Chen Ying felt something was wrong with such a massive number of 500,000 kilograms!

Just when Chen Ying was at a loss, Chen Ying suddenly remembered the most famous thing in history. Yang Wengan rebelled.

During the battle between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng for the throne, although the two fought openly and secretly, they were far from going to the point of life and death, after a guide, the two began to kill each other.

This introduction was the Yang Wengan Rebellion. In June of the seventh year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty (624), Li Yuan went to Renzhi Palace in Yijun County north of Chang'an to escape the summer heat, and ordered Li Shimin and Li Yuanji to follow him and Li Jiancheng stayed in the capital. Suddenly, he received a secret report. Crown Prince Li Jiancheng secretly contacted Yang Wengan, the governor of Qingzhou, and was raising weapons to rebel. Li Yuan was furious and ordered someone to summon Li Jiancheng to Renzhi Palace for other reasons. Li Jiancheng was frightened and some subordinates advised him to raise an army in the city, while others advised him to apologize alone. Li Jiancheng obeyed the latter. When he saw his father, he fell to the ground and bowed, hitting his head against the ground, almost fainted. Li Yuan was furious and detained Li Jiancheng and only gave him coarse food.

Li Yuan sent a message to Yang Wengan to meet him, but unexpectedly, the person who sent the order told Yang Wengan about Li Yuan's conspiracy. Yang Wengan immediately raised an army. While sending people to attack him, Li Yuan summoned Li Shimin to discuss countermeasures, and insisted that Li Shimin personally fight against him, promising to return to the court to the rear, deposed the crown prince and re-establish Li Shimin. Seeing that his father said this, Li Shimin led his troops to fight. Before the army arrived, Yang Wengan's army was already in chaos, and Yang Wengan died at the hands of his subordinates.

Li Yuan saw a problem with the Yang Wengan Rebellion, so he broke his promise and did not abolish the crown prince and rename the King of Qin, but instead rose and fell.

Although Chen Ying knew that the Yang Wengan Rebellion broke out in seven years of history, in this time and space, did Yang Wengan really rebellion?

Thinking of this, Chen Ying did not dare to be careless. He immediately splashed his pen and wrote a sincere letter to Li Jiancheng, asking Li Jiancheng to pay attention to Yang Wengan.

Just after Chen Ying's letter was sent, another thing came into Chen Ying's vision.

Chen Ying dared not be careless.

The assassination of Li Xiuning actually contained the shadow of Hou Mo Chenxu.

Chen Ying was angry, and he slapped the table and shouted: "Bastard, you dare to move my woman too!"

Originally, Chen Ying didn't want to go back to Chang'an. Even though Chen Qian was born more than a year ago, he can walk now, and he has not returned to Chang'an.

It is just to be afraid of getting involved in the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

Now, Chen Ying doesn't care.

Originally, Chen Ying knew that Li Shimin had bad intentions and also knew that Li Shimin launched a series of conspiracies. Chen Ying did not want to change the course of history, because he really didn't know whether Li Jiancheng would become a world-class hegemon like Li Shimin in history.
