The deceased is like a man who never gives up day and night.
After Guo Zongyi arrived in Tokyo, the storm he stirred up finally calmed down. Since that day, Wang Jun got the promise to lead the Ziqing Jiedu Envoy, and he devoted himself to state affairs without even glancing at Guo Zongyi. In this way, the governor of the exiled people
The more than a month passed smoothly and orderly.
During this period, ground was broken for the Refugee City, and the remaining batches of refugees have been resettled. Li Gu recovered 40,000 acres of unowned land and replaced it with more than 50,000 acres, totaling 110,000 acres. On a first-come-first-served basis,
The standard five acres per person has been fully divided.
After Guo Wei presided over the "personal farming" ceremony, these fields were all planted with millet. At this time, the Central Plains was mostly planted with millet and wheat in rotation. Millet was planted in spring and wheat was planted in autumn. It was two seasons a year.
Indifferent.
Those who have not been allocated fields for the time being are given many errands, such as building cities, repairing walls, quarrying, logging, digging sand, burning bricks, retting hemp, engineering and other work. They are responsible for two meals a day, and the younger ones can receive ten
A lot of money, more than 20 pieces, can be collected every day, which is enough to support the family.
Some of the free women were assigned to weaving workshops, where they spun linen and weaved cloth. Those who were self-satisfied with their own weaving and had quick hands and feet could weave two or three feet of plain cloth every day. At the end of the month, they could hand in ten feet of plain cloth, and the rest could be used.
Keep for yourself.
But more women are doing nothing at home. They take their young children to the porridge sheds every day to get porridge, or go to the city to find odd jobs to do.
The most troublesome thing was the children. The adults in the family went out to do things without supervision, so they gathered in groups and caused a lot of trouble. When Xue Juzheng reported it to him, his head was pounding.
So, Guo Zongyi decided to let them go to school!
Many of the refugees are literate, and there are also some well-established Juren and Gongsheng students. However, these people’s families have quite a lot of money, and some of them even have the ability to buy mansions in Kaifeng City. Their families moved to Kaifeng City and became real people.
People from the capital city.
Xue Juzheng offered the usual starting salary before anyone came to apply for the job. In the end, he had 12 candidates and more than 40 tribute students. He also bought paper, pens, and classics, and set up enlightenment schools in various establishments. Unfortunately, only a few came to attend school.
Guo Zongyi was greatly frustrated, but Xue Juzheng was quite confident. He said that literature and education are like an iron rod turning into a needle, and a drop of water piercing the stone. His Highness has made such a good start, which is a blessing to the country and a blessing to the people. Leave the rest to him slowly.
.
When Xue Juzheng said this, his heart was filled with joy, and his big square face was like a blooming old chrysanthemum. It was far better than the state of mind when Guo Zongyi gave him the scarlet.
Seeing that the governor's civil affairs were gradually getting back on track, and the entire city of Kaifeng was prospering a lot, Guo Zongyi left all daily affairs to Xue Juzheng, Li Fang and others and no longer personally interfered.
He was finally free. He went to class every day, wrote letters, practiced martial arts, and visited the Forbidden Army Camp, Refugee City, and Cao Bin Camp every now and then. He seemed to be the idle grandson again. However, there were still two things he did.
It lingered in his mind and could not be solved for a long time.
One is that the five thousand new troops have not yet been trained, and the other is that Zhu Banzhou, who went south to look for rice seeds, has not returned.
There was no point in being anxious about Zhu Renzhi's matter, but he couldn't wait any longer to train the new army, because a few days ago, a military report came from Pingyanxing camp, saying that the war ahead was in a stalemate.
At the beginning, the two states of Yi and Mi that belonged to the Taining Army were stripped off by Guo Wei's edict, leaving Murong Yanchao with only the Yanzhou headquarters to fight.
After Ping Yan's army entered the territory of Yanzhou, they had no trouble with the people along the way. As a result, Ping Yan's army was able to march straight in and arrived at Yanzhou City. Murong Yanchao gathered his troops and hid in Yanzhou City. He attacked several times but was repulsed by Yao Yuanfu.
In desperation, he urgently asked the puppet leader Li Jing of Huainan (Southern Tang, for the convenience of reading, hereafter called Southern Tang) to send troops to help. The Southern Tang general Yan Jingquan led 5,000 troops northward to Xiapi, but was inspected by Xuzhou
He sent Zhang Lingbin to block the attack and retreated to Shuyang. Zhang Lingbin defeated the Southern Tang army and captured the enemy general Yan Jingquan alive.
As a result, Murong Yanchao fell into a state of isolation and helplessness, and had to draw Si River to defend the city, and refused to defend Yanzhou. He was unable to retreat. Cao Yin, Yao Yuanfu and others could not defeat it for a long time, so they had to postpone the offensive and Yao Yuanfu supervised the construction of the siege station.
Required fly bridge, ladder, nest car and other equipment.
After receiving the report, Guo Wei was so anxious that he didn't sleep a wink all night. The next day, he hurriedly summoned all ministers to discuss matters in Zide Hall. Guo Zongyi was also lucky enough to be on duty.
In Zide Hall, purple gowns were fluttering, and young and old men gathered together.
Guo Wei sat high on the imperial steps with an anxious look on his face, a little less arrogant than usual.
He ordered General Li Mei to report the score and circulate it to all his ministers, and then said: "Yanzhou cannot be conquered for a long time. What do you think we should do?"
Wang Jun still took the lead and left the team. After all, he could only get Qingzhou after the peace, so he couldn't help but be in a hurry.
"I think it's better to change the general."
Guo Chong, the commander of the guards and horsemen, was also on duty today. When he heard this, he immediately went out to object: "No, changing generals before the battle is a taboo."
Wang Jun rolled his eyes at him, but due to his status as the actual number one person in the Forbidden Army, he still said politely: "Generals are brave soldiers. Yanzhou City cannot be attacked for a long time. Will it remain stagnant without changing the general? Yanzhou camp and camp jointly and jointly
There are hundreds of thousands of civilians who eat horse chews. How much food is consumed in a day? Even if Yanzhou City is scraped and searched, it will not be able to make up for the shortfall."
Guo Chong was a tiger general with national integrity, but not an eloquent person. After being scolded by Wang Jun, his face immediately turned red, and he sat back angrily without saying a word.
Seeing him retreating, Wang Jun turned to Guo Wei and said: "I have long said that Murong Yanchao is a giant thief and Cao Yin cannot defeat him. Your Majesty listened to Huang Kou's words and sent Yao Yuanfu to paint military aircraft.
The general is constrained, and there is no distinction between the commander and the deputy. For the present plan, it is better to let the ministers go to quell the chaos."
Before Guo Wei could speak, he heard Guo Zongyi curse angrily, "Old thief!".
Everyone was shocked and looked around, only to see His Highness the last class holding a wat in his hand, rushing to Wang Jun and scolding: "Wang Jun, who are you insinuations about?"
Wang Jun chuckled and replied: "Isn't Yao Yuanfu recommended by His Highness? Isn't His Highness a kid?"
Guo Zongyi calmed down. In his mind, he always regarded himself as an adult, but in the eyes of others, his body was like that of a young child. Wang Jun's words were not false in the eyes of others, and he could not refute, so he was just arrogant.
He said: "Haha."
Wang Jun heard that this "hehe" was not a kind word, and immediately he became angry and asked sternly: "Your Highness, are you scolding me?"
Guo Zongyi also chuckled, ignored Wang Jun, who was as red as his liver, turned to Guo Wei and said: "I believe that the reason why Yanzhou cannot be conquered for a long time is not our army, but Murong Yanchao."
"Oh?" Guo Wei became interested. This argument was quite new. He waved his hand and said, "Please tell me in detail."
"What Murong Yanchao relies on is just that the city of Yanzhou is strong and the people are rich. I heard that Murong Yanchao is easy to gather, and everyone knows it. The people of Yanzhou are often exploited. It would be better to order Cao Yin to cast iron tires and invest them in the city, and then to the soldiers."
The silver scattered in the middle was made by Murong Yanchao, and is used to reward the soldiers guarding the city. Therefore, the soldiers will not be used by them, and the city will be broken within ten days."
As soon as Guo Zongyi finished speaking, he heard the following words from the three prime ministers: "The art of war says that attacking the heart is the top priority, and attacking the city is the bottom priority; winning the heart is the top priority, and winning the army is the bottom priority. Your Highness's plan is very consistent with the essence of the art of war, and I think it is feasible."
"
At that moment, several civil servants expressed their support. Wang Jun looked around and said with a sneer: "This plan is not appropriate. Yanzhou City is impregnable. I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve success."
Guo Wei has been in the army for half his life, and based on his experience, he also felt that this plan was a bit taken for granted, so he waved his hand: "Brother Yi, go back to work first. This plan is not appropriate and needs to be considered."
Guo Zongyi had no choice but to go back to work. Before he could sit down, he heard Guo Wei ask for more information: "I want to conquer in person. What do you think?"
Guo Zongyi was horrified, stood up with a bounce, and said: "No! Murong Yanchao is just a thief, how can I bother Your Majesty to conquer it personally?"
Guo Chong also hurriedly went out to oppose it. He was a military general and the number one person in the imperial army of the Zhou Dynasty. The war ahead was so tight that the emperor wanted to personally conquer it. Wouldn't that be a slap in his face?
As a result, voices of dissent rang out in the palace, and even Wang Jun tried his best to dissuade him. After all, the emperor's personal conquest was no small matter.
Guo Wei did not expect that the ministers would react so violently and unanimously. He opened his mouth to argue, but was quickly drowned like a cow in mud.
In the middle of the commotion, the gatekeeper from outside the palace suddenly ran in. Seeing spittle flying and a quarrel in the palace, he was shocked and hurriedly ran to Guo Wei's side, covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered: "The eldest son of the emperor, Rong, together.
