Chapter 264: Thoughts (Part 2)

After capturing the two prefectures of Henan and Xu, both in terms of strength and influence, they have already accounted for most of the world.

The name and position of the King of Chu was originally very popular, but now I feel that the famous tools are insufficient.

There is no need to reveal the news, and we advise Wang Hongyi to enter the position of 95 as soon as possible, so as to meet the hearts of the world.

It turned out that Wang Hongyi inherited the throne of Jiedu, not a rash man. Most of the generals and officials of Chu State read scriptures. Even if some generals didn’t know much, they had some squatters. At this time, both self-consciousness and suggestions pointed out that the merit of supporting and persuading advance cannot be missed, which is second only to the merit of following the merit of following the merit of the dragon.

So, within a few days, the Jinling Promise Memorial Table poured into the Sewen Pavilion like snowflakes, and localities would follow up.

Jinling was the old capital of the previous dynasty, including palaces, Taimiao, and altars of heaven and earth, and did not need to be built. However, the actions of the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites could not be concealed. It seemed that the emperor was just right in front of us.

On December 20, the left deputy chief Wang Yan, the right deputy chief Yu Zhao, the deputy chief Li Xian and Li Gang, the Privy Councilor Ding Huchen, and the Secretary-General Zhang Youzhi led all civil and military officials to formally submit a letter to persuade them to advance.

"...Shu, Chu, Wu, Qi, Wei are all here, and only Luoyang is in the middle of the earth. In the blink of an eye, the king has most of the world, gathering 500,000 troops, and launching troops to attack, and they will definitely be invincible and defeated. The Hu people are now rampant in Yanzhao. The king obeys the will of heaven and obeys the will of the north to relieve the suffering of the people and save the people from the fire and water. It is also imperative. And how can the unification of the world be just a king? I think that proclaiming emperor and establishing a tripod is a reform move of heaven's destiny... At this time, if you don't claim to be the emperor, ascend to the throne, to determine the great righteousness, when will you wait? I hope that the king will proclaim himself to the emperor, respond to the destiny of heaven and the peace and comfort the people..."

At the beginning of the poem, Wang Hongyi retreated humbly because of his lack of virtue and desire.

The ministers refused, and the two of them were promoted. Wang Hongyi was humble again and issued an order: "I am not worthy of prestige, and I should order the sages in the country to be appointed as sages in the country, and wait for them in vain!"

The ministers submitted a letter saying, "There is no sage in the world who is better than the great king."

So after three times, Wang Hongyi sighed and said, "Heavenly gave his destiny, and he dared not disobey it, so he would accept it!"

Therefore, the country was named "Cheng".

At this time, snowflakes are rising, and the Secret Palace is discussing matters

The huge candle is burning, the hall is bright, the brazier is burning, and the heat is filling the inside

Wang Hongyi sat in the middle, Wang Yan, Yu Zhao, Li Xian, Li Gang, Ding Huchen, and Zhang Youzhi discussed major events

In the Secret Pavilion, everyone's voices were deliberately pressing down, and the atmosphere was still full of joy.

Yu Zhao said, "The king, the minister, the king and the cabinet, the throne ceremony has been arranged, and even the military and political officials from other provinces have no time to pay their respects."

"It doesn't matter. Just let them pay their respects later." Wang Hongyi said without thinking it was strange.

"The King and the list of officials in Henan and Xu provinces have agreed that they will be in place before March next year, and all the weight of food and grass in preparation will begin to be transferred. The workshops and mines will be in full swing according to the King's request. Weapons, gunpowder, and paper armor are rapidly consumed. It is expected that by April next year, it will be used for the war." Wang Yan said.

Li Xian said, "After the king ascended the throne, the angels sent to Duke Zheng will set off."

Li Gang bowed and said, "King, all seals and dresses have been made and can be used at any time. The dresses and gold, silver and bronze seals of all officials in the world are still in the carvings overtime. After the king ascends the throne, they will be promulgated and become customized."

Ding Huchen said, "Your Majesty, the Privy Council's military restructuring plan has been completed. It will be officially recruited after January 15th. It is expected that the basic training will be completed in April. It will be transferred to the army to restructure the army. It is estimated that it will be completed around May, and the war will be launched at that time!"

Wang Hongyi heard a passage and said "Yeah", and after hearing this, he smiled: "The cabinet is well prepared, Zhang Qing, what else can be repaired in the deployment?"

Zhang Youzhi replied in a bow: "Your Majesty, I have no objection!"

Wang Hongyi smiled, stood up, and walked: "Next year's strategic plan is to obtain Yanzhou and Luoyang, and to completely draw the Yellow River for governance. With the interception of the navy, the elite troops on the shore, the Hu people could not enter. In this way, the core area of ​​the Central Plains will fall into the hands of this dynasty, and the Han people have already obtained six or seven out of the population, and the foundation will be solid."

"King Shang, the Yellow River is different from the Yangtze River. Some sections of the river will freeze in winter." Zhang Youzhi reminded.

"I know this, but the Yellow River is frozen, and it does not have thick ice every year. It can make cars, horses and pedestrians cross the river, and it may not be once in ten years. This time is enough, and even if it is frozen, I can still have a way." Wang Hongyi said, pointing to the map: "The world will be divided into this."

"The Hu people occupied the two states of Youbing, and may occupy the three states of Yiqingliang in the future, and the Qin King occupied the Guanzhong."

At this time, Wang Yan was a little unwilling to accept it: "Your Majesty, we can directly attack the two states of Qingliang."

Yu Zhao shook his head and said, "Prime Minister Wang, our army has pacified the Central Plains for the first time, and even the south has been governed for no more than three years. The foundation is unstable. Now the decisive battle with the Hu people is too risky."

"What Yu Xiangguo said is reasonable. Our army's future plan is to carry out reorganization and cultivation. The Central Plains and the South are at first pacified, and the governance is unstable, so we should not fight to the country."

"But you won't do anything. Look, Qingzhou and Youzhou are both coastal areas. We are 60,000 naval commanders in our throne, and we are invincible in the world. How can we not use it at this time?"

"Someone once wrote a letter saying that now the south has been decided that the navy can be reduced. It is a foolish statement. The navy has 60,000, and can carry 200,000 troops of the army, and go up the sea to defeat each one, causing Hu to run away."

"The Hu people have a total of 300,000 males. At this time, they attacked about 150,000. How can 150,000 control such a vast area? The Hu people's profit lies in their horsepower, which can be two hundred miles a day and night, which is very sharp. Isn't my navy a cavalry? And it's even faster, and can be three hundred miles a day, and the soldiers live on the boat, and they can regain their strength."

Wang Hongyi pointed to the map and sneered: "The strength of the Hu people cannot be underestimated, but if they cannot establish a stable regime and run around, one will be missing if one loses. In a few years, it will be the end of the force."

"The north can still plunder in a short time. After a few years, it will burn and kill a hundred miles without getting a grain. Once this happens, even if the Hu people have more luck, they can only sit and wait for death."

Speaking of this, although the officials of the cabinet did not hear it on the first day, they still nodded in favor, but they were a little reluctant. In this way, the north would suffer a lot of war, but this was helpless.

Wang Hongyi said again: "I have already won most of the world. This time I have won Yanzhou and Luoyang and controlled the Yellow River is the most critical battle. As long as I win, my foundation will be unbreakable. There will be no variables in unifying the world. Everyone should work hard!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked, bowed and bowed together, and said in unison: "I wish to die for the king!"

After worshiping, Yu Zhao was a little bitter and said, "The king is wise in his plan, but the cabinet also has some difficulties. Shu is broken and has been restored in a few years. There is not much grain that can be transported out, and we still need to support Guanzhong."

"In the south, although there are a large number of refugees in Jiaozhou now, and there are rubber shoes and gloves to solve most of the schistosomiasis, the grain can only be self-sufficient in the short term."

"Originally, Jingzhou and Yangzhou were a place with a large population and fertile land, but they repeatedly used troops and two-thirds of the world's military food was called here."

"The king, I was originally rich, but now I have some initial complaints... Even if I am a fat field, I cannot plant it continuously. After one batch after another, it will become barren. If I draw too much blood, I will lose my vitality. Please have a rest."

Wang Hongyi heard it carefully, nodded repeatedly, and said in a pondering manner: "This is Jingguo Avenue. Is there anything missing besides food?"

"Your Majesty, there is no shortage of weapons and gunpowder now. It is just that peace is not long before, and there is insufficient cultivation, and food is a big problem."

Wang Hongyi walked and said, "There is actually a way to do this."

Everyone in the cabinet was stunned and asked, "Please make it clear."

Wang Hongyi was silent and walked: "You can lean against the sea."

"Master, the fisherman is poor and has insufficient self-sufficiency. How can he rely on him?" Zhang Youzhi asked in confusion.

Wang Hongyi's face was solemn. In an instant, the officials of the cabinet felt that the expression of relaxation had disappeared just now, and they couldn't help but breathe and listen to the words.

"Why can't fishermen rely on in ancient times? In fact, they will rot and deteriorate. After fishing at sea, they can only go twenty miles a day when they go ashore. In other words, the fish can only be bought and sold within twenty miles, and almost everyone can fish within twenty miles. Who will sell this fish to? It won't work the next day, it can only be wasted. Therefore, the fishermen cannot support the country, not because the output is not enough!" Wang Hongyi said, remembering his previous life.

I lived on the coast in my 1980s and was only a few dozen miles away from the sea. At that time, someone rowed a boat to sell hairtail. Because there were no fast boats and no refrigerators, hairtail was only sold for one cent per kilogram. However, if it could not be sold on the same day, it would be buried in the field as a fat field (personal experience).

But once there are refrigerators and faster transportation, the fishery will grow rapidly.

Wang Hongyi remembered in his previous life that he had 500 million tons of grain, but the total output of aquatic products was 50 million tons. What is this huge proportion?

You should know that these 500 million tons of grain have been through various means of increasing production.

In this era, the total grain output in the world may not be 50 million tons. As long as 10 million tons of aquatic products are supplemented, the grain needs of two million people can be met immediately.

Everyone in the cabinet immediately understood that they had considered fishery before, but they did not see the truth so thoroughly, and their eyes lit up when they heard this.

Li Gang asked: "Your Majesty, how to solve the problem of fishery products entering?"

"Yu Song!" As he said that, Wang Hongyi ordered someone to hand over a document to everyone in the cabinet. This was the way for fish pine. In fact, he wanted to say that the salted fish was dried, but he endured it.

The method of making fish pine is very simple. Peel the fish until it is sore, put it in a large pot and stir-fry and dry it. In this way, the fish pine can be stored for a long time and is in a cool place for shelf life of up to 3 months. It can be used as military rations or exported.

Coal and firewood can be used as materials for burning fish pine.

Yusong was invented on Earth during the Tongzhi period of Xianfeng, and later there was no opportunity for development.

After reading the information, the cabinet's eyes were lit and deeply excited.

"The king, this kind of dried fish is worth no less than one million new fields. The fields need to be planted by people, and water conservancy needs to be built. It follows the climate. There are only one or two seasons a year. Fishing is completely free. Fish are born with water. Fishers can only fish it up. This is to ensure the harvest of drought and flood. If this skill is used, food shortage will not be a problem in the coming year, and there will be no fear of disaster in the future."

"I'm not afraid of disasters and years of age, but it's not a problem to live a few million people." Wang Hongyi smiled faintly. What he was thinking about was not that simple.

Many time travelers were thinking about how to sail and how to trade capital. In Wang Hongyi's opinion, they did not grasp the key points, and they were all people who took political affairs.

And this fish pine is an epoch-making process. Once it is invented, it will cause earth-shaking changes along the coast.

The reason is very simple. Coastal residents across the country will transfer to the fishermen industry in large quantities. In the coastal areas, the land-lost population can be ignored. At least the vitality of the coastal areas will be greatly enhanced.

In order to supply a large number of fishermen's industries, the shipbuilding industry will further develop, and shipbuilding and fisheries will promote the development of marine trade and form a great sailing.

Everything happened naturally. In five years, it was not Wang Hongyi who wanted to sail in a big way, but people in the entire coastal area were going to sail in a big way.

In fact, in ancient times, in addition to dried fish, there were also dried fish, which could also achieve the goal. Europe was the hometown of salted fish, which promoted the great navigation.

But why were salted fish not allowed in ancient times?

It’s very simple. Salted fish will destroy the salt administration. With salted fish, why should people buy salt?

Just like ordinary Europeans, they bought a few salted fish and ate meat after getting salt and eating it, which would greatly reduce the salt profit controlled by the government.

Therefore, large-scale appearance of salted fish was not allowed in previous dynasties.

If salted fish are not allowed, the ocean will naturally have no meaning and will naturally kill the great navigation.

The root of everything, the factor behind the capital era in China is only the word "salted fish"!

This is why Wang Hongyi does not talk about "salted fish" but "fish pine".

However, if you seize the world, customs will further develop, and have sufficient national income, it doesn’t matter if the salt administration is affected. The cheaper price of fine salt and the opening of salted fish are inevitable, which will make China evolve into a great voyage within decades.

By then, customs and fisheries will account for 30% of the world's finances and food, forming a huge interest class. Even if the emperors and prime ministers in later generations want to abolish them, they will not be able to abolish them, so that no one will lose their political severance.

Wang Hongyi thought about this and suddenly the "die" weapon moved.

The purple air in the cauldron was filled with mist, emitting waves of water, rippling in the void, and there were only microwaves in the palace, but when it came outside, the red luck made the sound of waves.

In the void, circles of red air are rippling, circulating and flowing, and in a faint manner, yellow air is floating.

Wang Hongyi looked from a distance and noticed the traces. His face changed, and he was both surprised and happy.

Generally speaking, when an uprising is unified, the energy will be red. The ancients did not know that it was the virtue of fire.

In the prosperous era of governance and transformation, peace and prosperity, the national fortune will turn yellow, which was considered a local virtue by the ancients.

I thought that the whole country's energy turned yellow, and this must be done after unifying the world and carrying out a similar Zhenguan governance to gradually turn yellow and cover the land of China.

By the way, in the past life, it was founded on Earth for 60 years, and its energy was just yellow.

Now this thought has this sign, it is really auspicious!

However, the ministers in the cabinet did not know Wang Hongyi's concerns. At first, they didn't agree with it, but later they said that Gaowu Jianling had a deep thought.

The more I thought about it, the more excited they became, and everyone couldn't help but kowtowed and said, "The king used this plan to see the sun and the moon through the dark clouds. It was really a saint's bright and lofty!"

Wang Hongyi smiled slightly and stopped talking.
