Yang Yuanyan did not care about the presence of Linjin Marquis Li Changfeng. He raised his foot and kicked the long case in front of him out, hitting the stone pillar of the main hall.
The fine sandalwood case was broken at the waist, which showed that the strength of his kick was amazing. The paperweight, pen and ink on it and the large stack of letters were scattered all over the floor in a mess.
Even though Ruan Yan, Yin Peng, Zhao Zhen and others expected that King Xin would be furious, they did not expect that he would get angry in front of Lin Jinhou Li Changfeng. They sat in a stalemate behind the long table, looking at each other, full of anxiety and at a loss.
They didn't know whether to stand up and persuade King Xin to calm down.
Li Changfeng's face was also gloomy. He sat on his knees and looked at Yang Yuanyan softly.
Of course he knew that surrendering Shiliang was a condition that was extremely difficult for Huaidong to accept calmly.
It is not simply the gains and losses of a single county.
Shiliang County is located to the south of Hongzepu and west of Fanliang Lake. Since the middle and late period of the previous dynasty, the Huainan Jiedushi Mansion (Huaixi) can only compete with the Guangling Jiedushi Mansion (Huaidong) by taking Shiliang County into its pocket.
The geographical advantages of Hongzepu and Fanliang Lake are equally divided.
In the middle and late periods of the previous dynasty, almost half of the disputes between Huainan and Guangling towns occurred in Shiliang County. Tangyi in the south of Shiliang County was under the jurisdiction of Shengzhou Jiedushi Prefecture for a long time.
Han Qian regained Haozhou, Shouzhou, the southern part of Huozhou, and took the eastern part of Guangzhou into his pocket. In fact, he had formed a vassal power comparable to Huaidong, and the gains and losses of Shiliang County became more and more important.
Li Changfeng could sympathize with Yang Yuanyan's mood, but Yang Yuanyan acted arrogantly in front of him without any scruples. He would not show too much weakness and let others peep. He pressed his hand on the long case and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness
After sealing Huaidong, King Shou's army did not retreat, His Highness sent troops to Shiliang, and peeked at the Liang army in Haozhou from the east wing. This was to share the worries of Chu. Your Majesty and Prime Minister Shen also thought of His Highness's glorious military exploits, but the Liang territory was in chaos.
The Liang army retreated like a rout, and Shiliang County was surrounded by Chu troops and horses on all sides. Your Highness should lead the Huaidong troops and cross the Huaihe River to attack the Liang army, instead of occupying Shiliang without authorization and making it your own..."
"Bullshit, Han Qian conspired with Liang Jun to take advantage of the chaos and invasion, so that Liang Jun could survive. However, the princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were as timid as mice and did not dare to retaliate and punish him for collaborating with the enemy. However, they thought Huaidong was
Is it easy to squeeze a soft persimmon?" Yang Yuanyan stared at Li Changfeng angrily with his eyes split open, wishing he could eat him alive.
"Li came here today to convey a message to Mr. Shen on behalf of His Majesty. His Royal Highness King Xin really believes that the court is unfair. After Li returns to the court, he should report it to His Majesty and ask for His Majesty's Holy Judgment." They didn't even start talking, but the situation was like this.
Naturally, Li Changfeng would not stay any longer and accept the anger. He stood up, cupped his hands, and walked out of the hall.
"Master Li Marquis, please stay." Ruan Yan rushed to catch up, grabbed Li Changfeng's robe and said.
"Sir Ruan, what do you mean? Could it be that Huaidong wants to keep Li today?" Li Changfeng stared at Ruan Yan's hand pulling his sleeve and asked sharply.
He thought he could gain some respect by going to Huaidong, but he didn't want to be scolded by King Xin as a pig or a dog. How could he endure it?
"... Mr. Li Hou is serious." Ruan Yan quickly let go of his hand and said with a wry smile.
If before the great chaos in the Liang Kingdom, Huaidong's attitude could have been tougher, both covertly and overtly. But now, after nearly two years of rest and recuperation, Huaidong's internal situation is worse than that of Chuzhou and northern Yangtai. The settlement system was destroyed by Liang Jun.
Times are much better, but the problem is that Liang Jun has too much time to take care of himself at this time, and Xu Mingzhen is unable to contain the Tangyi army in the middle reaches of the Huaihe River. Who knows whether Han Qian joined forces with the Shou Prince's Palace to encourage the court to plot to withdraw from Huaidong again?
Perhaps the dispute over the ownership of Shiliang County was just a pretext thrown out by Han Qian instigating the court.
At this time, King Xin was furious. Ruan Yan did not want to get into trouble at this time, but he also did not want to ask Li Changfeng to leave in anger. He could only wink and ask others to appease King Xin's anger. He chased Li Changfeng out of the palace and asked him to go first.
He went to live in the post house, and he temporarily replaced King Xin to fulfill the friendship of the place and to protect Li Changfeng from the wind and dust.
Seeing King Xin angrily walking to the inner palace of the palace, surrounded by Zhao Zhen and his generals, Yin Peng stood in the main hall and hesitated for a while, not wanting to be in the way of King Xin anymore and find trouble, so he walked out of the palace and took the two men with him.
The famous retinue rushed to Wang Wenqian's house in Chuzhou Mansion.
Wang Wenqian has occasionally caught wind and cold in the past few days and has been unable to get up from bed, which just happened to avoid today's embarrassing situation.
After being informed, Yin Peng walked to the inner house and saw Wang Wenqian sitting under the pavilion, enjoying himself playing chess with Xu.
Although there is still a plaster on his forehead, and there is a bowl of medicinal soup with a strong medicinal smell on the stone table in the pavilion, looking at Wang Wenqian's eyes staring at the chessboard with a bright look, he does not look like he is seriously ill and cannot get out of bed.
Only then did Yin Peng realize that after Wang Wenqian heard the news three days ago that Xuzhou sent troops into Chenzhou to pursue the bandits, he expected that Han Qian would take the opportunity to plot against Shi Liang if the situation evolved, so he simply stayed in bed and pretended to be ill.
Xu stood up and asked Yin Peng to sit down next to Wang Wenqian.
"Li Changfeng did come to Tangyi to seek Shiliang County, but as soon as he said this, His Highness became furious, and everyone broke up. Now the Prime Minister chased Li Changfeng to the post house, and His Highness was also angry.
Chong Chong, I have no intention of giving in." Yin Peng sat down and saw that Wang Wenqian's hair had completely turned white in the past two years, so he told him what happened in the palace hall this afternoon.
Wang Wenqian was busy playing with the chess pieces on the chessboard, seemingly not listening to Yin Peng's words.
Yin Peng continued: "Currently, I have heard rumors that in addition to forcing Chenzhou Fanying to be incorporated into the Youlongque Army and not be allowed to garrison on the side of Xuzhou, the Qianyang Marquis is mainly asking for Shiliang County -
—When Shen Yang left from East Lake, Zheng Chang stayed in East Lake for an extra day and night, but I don’t know what conditions the Marquis of Qianyang and the Zheng family had secretly negotiated. My lord, do you think it is possible for the Marquis of Qianyang to negotiate with the Zheng family in the Shou Prince’s Mansion?
Conspiracy to instigate the imperial court to bring up the issue of reducing the vassal state again?"
"This is unlikely. During the civil war in Liang, Tangyi benefited the most. He already had strong troops and horses, so much so that soldiers from Xuzhou entered Chenzhou to suppress the bandits. Shen Yang had no choice but to drag Zheng Chang over to dissuade him.
If Han Qian had not been given the opportunity to annex the four states of Ruanjiang, how could he sit back and watch the carving up of Tangyi and continue to grow?" Wang Wenqian shook his head and said, "Of course, Han Qian killed Shi Liang and was not among the Huaidong vassals.
It was supposed to be returned to Chuzhou, but the bandits plundered Xuzhou did happen, and they were caught by Xuzhou. The court was weak and did not have the majesty to deter Tangyi, but it had to solve these two knots - I see, things are going wrong.
It has become rigid, and the final outcome may be that Han Ting will simply cut off the food aid to Huaidong, and then give Tangyi a name to take back the stone beams on his own..."
Yin Peng thought for a while, thinking that if there was a stalemate, the situation would really develop in this direction. At that time, Tangyi and Huaidong would kill each other, which might be what the court would like to see the most. He frowned worriedly and asked
Said: "Shall I go and talk to the Prime Minister?"
In order to avoid a military confrontation in the end, Yin Peng wanted to ask King Xin in advance to understand what the outcome would be if the situation got out of control. However, he did not dare to see the grumpy and angry King Xin at this time, so he wanted to see him first.
Ruan Yan.
Wang Wenqian shook his head in frustration, stopped Yin Peng and said, "As long as they can think of it, there will be no room for negotiation when Tangyi soldiers and horses enter Shiliang County. What are you going to do now?"
Yin Peng knew that they should not directly raise this matter with Ruan Yan or King Xin. Otherwise, others might suspect them of secretly helping Tangyi behind their backs.
When the army suddenly entered Shiliang County, Yin Peng also felt scared, because he was afraid that by then, there would be even less room for the two sides to make a difference.
"Sir, do you want to be bedridden all the time?" Yin Peng asked again.
"Otherwise, what can we do? Will it make others feel annoying?" Wang Wenqian asked.
Yin Peng was at a loss for words. However, who would have thought that Tangyi could expand to this extent in just two years? The expansion would be so aggressive to Huaidong and would make Huaidong feel threatened?
Otherwise, no matter who proposes it, Wang Jun will not be married to Tangyi!
"Is Jun'er okay in East Lake?" Wang Wenqian stared at the pond next to the pavilion for a while and asked.
"It should be fine." Yin Peng said uncertainly.
He and Ruan Yan rushed to Linhuai to meet Han Qian last month, but did not see Wang Jun. In order to avoid suspicion, Wang Jun did not send any letters home, and he did not have any letters with Wang Tang, Wang Yan, Wang Che and others.
contacts.
However, Yin Peng knew that Wang Yan was appointed as the magistrate of Huangchuan County, and that Wang Zang and Huo Xiao could enter and leave the core of Tangyi. Huo Li and Wang Che were sent to some unknown place on official business some time ago. Since they had no one in Tangyi
Sitting on the bench shows that Wang Jun's situation is not too bad.
Now that the time has become more sensitive, Yin Peng did not mention sending someone to contact Wang Yan and Wang Che, but he also said with some worry: "I'm just afraid that there will be people over there in Yangzhou who can't help but contact the young lady...
"
Yin Peng was originally a general of the Wang family. He separated from the Wang family and established his own family after making military exploits. However, his family was a small family, with only a dozen brothers, nephews and nephews in total. After a few warnings, nothing would go wrong, but the Wang and Huo families
After moving north from Runzhou to Yangzhou, they still had nearly a thousand direct descendants and dependents, thousands of households of slaves and maidservants, and thousands of hectares of fertile land.
Two years ago, the Wang and Huo families might have regarded Wang Yan, Wang Zhen, Wang Che, Huo Li, Huo Xiao and others who followed Wang Jun into Tangyi as abandoned sons. However, in just two years, Tangyi (
Hanxu Prefecture) has more than 30 counties and 12.3 million soldiers and civilians. In fact, it has become the first vassal force in Dachu that towers over Huaidong and Xiangbei.
If someone from the Wang and Huo family couldn't restrain themselves and frequently ran from Yangzhou to Tangyi, Yin Peng could not imagine what kind of association this would cause when King Xin heard about it.
"I will write to Wen Yong and give my instructions again." Wang Wenqian nodded, knowing that no matter how careful something is, he told his concubine Xu, "I have a new ancient inkstone. Concubine Gu should be happy."
, you find an opportunity to send this ancient inkstone and the dozen newly acquired jaspers to the inner palace..."
"If you hadn't worked together to save her, Gu Mei'er would have been able to serve His Highness. Are you still afraid that she wouldn't put in a good word for you if she had the chance?" Mrs. Xu said with some reluctance.
"The favor is from the past. Whether you remember it or not depends on the friendship. Don't be reluctant to give up small profits." Wang Wenqian said.
…………
…………
I don’t know how King Xin could endure such a tone. Han Qian only received the news that after Li Changfeng arrived in Chuzhou, he sent people to and from Chuzhou. He went to Jinling four or five times, and finally the one that was discussed separately in the political affairs hall was Huaidong.
It is requested that an additional 100,000 stones be provided for food relief this year and next.
Letters from the Privy Council, the Ministry of Household Affairs and other departments were sent to Donghu at the end of April, officially placing Shiliang County under the jurisdiction of Tangyi Xingzhifu, and clarifying that the feudal land in Huaidong was equally divided between Hongzepu and Fan
Lianghu has a favorable geographical location.
Shiliang County had long been devastated by frequent wars, the city was in ruins, and there were only four to five hundred households.
However, Huaidong soldiers and horses withdrew to Dongyang County and drove more than 400 or 3,000 households into Dongyang like livestock. All the houses and villages in Shiliang County that could be set on fire were also burned.
It was reduced to ashes, as if it had been plowed over again by a military disaster.
"The arrogance of a small family is the arrogance of a small family! Back then, I expected that Yang Yuan would not be able to succeed in the climate, and I was really not disappointed!" Han Qian reined in his horse and looked at the wilderness where the grass grew and the orioles flew, and listened to the report of Feng Xuan, who had led his troops to take over Shiliang.
He said with emotion about the situation in the county.
Feng Liao, Han Donghu, Han Chengmeng, Huo Li and other generals also reined in their horses and stopped on the grass slope, looking at Shiliang City, which had only been formally taken over by the Tangyi Army for two months. Under the setting sun, it looked particularly dilapidated.
Both the Hejin Army before and the Huaidong Army after that were trapped in food and it was difficult to recruit civilians, so they did not completely repair the remaining slopes of Shiliang.
At this time, they looked at the ruined city from a distance and could see the huge gap in the broken city wall, which was only blocked by a fence.
The galloping road through the city has long been abandoned. Although you can still barely see its old appearance among the long grass in Liliwen, the continuous drizzle has made it muddy and difficult for people and horses to move on.
At this time, it is midsummer, and since the rainy season, heavy rains have continued in the Jianghuai area, and many construction works have been forced to interrupt. Naturally, there is no need to talk about military operations.
Han Qian inspected the disaster situation all the way and walked to Shiliang County. He could see water swamps everywhere. It can be seen that most of the rivers in Shiliang County have long been blocked by silt, and the dams are abandoned and can hardly bear the role of diverting rainwater.
Fortunately, there are not many people in Shiliang County, so there is no heavy responsibility for flood prevention and disaster relief.
However, the fields in Shiliang County have been abandoned for a long time. In addition to serious waterlogging, most areas are also covered with tangled shrubs. They can only be reclaimed as raw land, which is more difficult than fields that have been abandoned for two or three years.
Much more.
"To cultivate this field well, we need to mobilize more cattle, horses and large livestock." The rainy season will soon pass, and after autumn comes the opportunity to expand production. Han Qian turned back and asked Feng Liao, "Can the General Affairs Department mobilize
How many large livestock are given to Chuzhou?”
"Currently, we can transfer 500 mules and oxen and 500 military horses to Chuzhou." Feng Liao said.
"It's too little. I've made a guarantee with the people below that Zhizhifu will definitely allocate us 2,000 military horses and 2,000 mules and oxen this time - Chuzhou is now destitute and has not enough people.
Twenty thousand, but there are too many things to do, and there is no animal power, so you can give me an additional three thousand strong laborers..." Feng Xuan began to bargain with Feng Liao in front of Han Qian.
Tangyi has been continuously replenishing animal power over the years. In the great victory of Wujinling, more than 5,000 mules and horses were directly seized from the Shouzhou Army. However, after merging more than 500,000 people in the 12 counties in the north, the per capita population in Tangyi
The level of animal power they possess is still much lower than that in the Jiangdong area.
Currently, an ox in the Jiangdong area is worth more than ten cents. The government has too many places to spend money. This year, it can only squeeze out a small budget to purchase four to five thousand mules and horses, but the number of places asking for livestock is even higher.
many.
Feng Xuan opened his mouth to ask for four thousand large animals. If he hadn't been concerned about his face, Feng Liao would have spitted all over his face.
However, without large livestock as an important supplement, it would be too slow to just use human power to cut down shrubs, cultivate new fields, dig ditches, and repair cities and post roads.
Judging from the current level of intensive farming in the well-developed counties of Donghu, Tangyi, Wanshou, and Liyang, it is almost the limit for a young and strong man to cultivate 11 or 2 acres of paddy and dry land every year without relying on animal power.
Therefore, although the flat area of Huaixi is quite vast, and tens of millions of acres of grain fields can be cultivated in theory, the Tangyi government has one million people under its jurisdiction, and women and children can make up half of the young and strong labor force.
Horizontal cultivation of five to six million acres of paddy and dry land is already the limit.
In this case, the vast majority of the labor force will be tied up in the fields. Only during the slack seasons can they be mobilized in sections for the construction of roads, cities, and ditches.
This is also the main factor why under the traditional governance model, corvee and military service last for three to four months. If the war or tense confrontation lasts for a long time, a large number of young and strong laborers will be forced to serve beyond the limit, which will have a particularly great impact on farming.
.
This is also a huge dilemma that is difficult to get rid of in the agricultural era.
Farming allows people to live and reproduce in fixed residences, and the population increases rapidly. However, even in peaceful and prosperous times, people still need to work hard day and night to meet basic survival needs.
At present, Tangyi cannot break away from the basis of agricultural production, but in order to ensure sufficient labor force for the development of workshops, Han Qian mainly limits the scale of land granting.
Even though Huaixi is vast and sparsely populated, it is more than enough to grant hundreds of acres of land to each household of generals and soldiers. However, the average initial grant to each household is only 15 acres, and the maximum cumulative grant to each household for military achievements is 30 acres. At this time, if
If you want to exchange military merit for more farmland, you must divide households, but in principle, this is not supported for meritorious generals.
On the basis of controlling the scale of farmland transfer, it is necessary to continuously improve the level of intensive farming and expand the planting area of high-yield paddy fields as much as possible so that the actual grain output will not be reduced much and ensure that the internal needs of the military and civilians can be met.
In addition, we are doing our best to supplement animal power and develop hydraulic equipment accordingly to take over some of the heavy work of pounding rice, drainage and irrigation, etc., to further save labor so that they can be transferred to nearby industries such as industry and mining.
This model can make fuller use of the surplus agricultural population or leisure labor force, but it also determines that once some manufacturing technologies are popularized and the scale of production needs to be expanded, they cannot be kept strictly confidential.
After all, it is impossible to gather craftsmen and families together to form a closed group that is not easily penetrated by outsiders.
Although there was no official permission from the imperial court, Han Qian had already made new zoning adjustments to the Huaixi prefectures in June.
At present, the six counties of Chuzhou City (Nanqiao County), Yongyang, Puyang, Tingshan, and Shiliang are placed under the jurisdiction of Chuzhou. Shiliang County, which has a heavier military and defense mission, is changed to the state seat, leaving Feng Xuan to command the area.
The elite brigade was stationed in Chuzhou and also served as the governor of Chuzhou. Han Chengmeng was appointed governor of Chuzhou and the county magistrate of Shiliang.
Although Puyang and Tingshan were the first counties to be established together with Donghu, Wushou and other places, before the victory of Wujinling, the main role of Puyang and Tingshan was to serve as the supporting core of Chuzhou's defense line to guard against the Wenbo station stationed in Chuzhou.
The department was not the focus of the initial operation.
At present, Puyang and Tingshan counties are included, and the number of Dingkou in the five counties of Chuzhou is only 3,000 households and 20,000 Dingkou.
Han Qian planned to move another 100,000 people into Chuzhou from outside within three to five years.
Of course, the current population migration is mainly due to internal adjustments in the Huaixi area, which is not as urgent as before. At the same time, the money and food that the government can allocate to Chuzhou at one time is limited. After all, there are too many places to spend money, so even if it is planned to move a population of 100,000
, it is also carried out step by step.
At present, it is only planned to move the population from Huangchuan and Le'an counties, as well as Huozhou and central Shouzhou, which are particularly severely affected by floods, and their houses and fields have been invaded by floods, to Chuzhou and the two newly established counties in the north of Chaohu.
transfer.
This will provide the least resistance, and at the same time ensure that the cultivated land in these areas that has not been affected by floods can continue to produce food, and will not cause excessive additional expenses to the government. As for the households whose houses were damaged and whose fields were flooded,
They are suffering from nowhere to live and are starving. The government has come out to provide disaster relief and relocate them to other places. What choice do they have?
At present, the population base of Chuzhou is still too small, even if it is hired, it cannot use too much labor force. However, Feng Xuanzhi of Chuzhou, in addition to controlling the navy that subsequently entered Hongzepu and Fanliang Lake, was jointly responsible for the defense of the north and east and west.
, we also need to do preliminary resettlement work for subsequent population migration, and carry out repairs of roads, ditches, and walled cities throughout the state. The burden on our shoulders is particularly heavy, and we naturally hope to allocate thousands more large-scale animals.
The animals are coming.
Feng Xuan knew that it would be impossible to talk to Feng Liao in private, so he could only fight for more in front of Han Qian.
Before Han Qian could speak, Feng Liao complained to Feng Xuan: "If the Yongyang Canal that runs through Puyang River and Shiliang River and the horizontal canal that runs between Shiliang River and Shitang River are excavated,
Chuzhou can bear it all on its own, but I can mobilize two thousand more mules and horses. However, these two tasks require huge manpower and material resources, and are extremely urgent. Currently, the General Affairs Department hires thousands of young and strong laborers from various counties to manage them.
, it is really impossible to squeeze out more resources for Chuzhou..."
Feng Xuan tugged on Han Chengmeng's sleeves and stared at Han Qian. Han Qian quickly apologized: "You asked Feng Liao to discuss this matter. I opened my mouth randomly and Feng Liao stared at me like a resentful woman. Who should I talk to?"
Are you going to reason with me?"
"...It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, so she will complain." Feng Liao said resentfully.
"It's still too late for us to rush to Mopan Valley before it gets dark," Han Donghu urged.
The city defense in Shiliang County has just been taken over, and a small number of outpost camps have been established in Shitangbu and Baitigang to watch every move of Huaidong soldiers and horses. Han Donghu does not want to march at night, but wants to rush before it gets completely dark.
Enter Mopan Valley Camp.
The next time Han Qian came over, or before he even tried to fight for Shiliang County, it was actually in the northern section of the Wujian Mountains. Between the peaks and ridges on the side of Shiliang County, it was found that there was likely to be a large shallow layer.
coal mine.
Previous topographical surveys of Wujianshan mainly focused on military offense and defense, but in March this year, there were continuous heavy rains in the Haochuan area, and intermittent black water gushes out from between Wujianshan.
When the scouts discovered this phenomenon, Chen Jitang and others speculated that there was likely to be a large-scale shallow coal vein in the peaks of the northern section of Wujianshan.
In fact, there is no shortage of coal in the entire Huaixi region, but considering the drainage problem, the cost of mining even shallow coal in the plains is extremely high; and if you want to transport coal from deep in the Huaiyang Mountains, the transportation cost is high.
too high.
It would be of great significance if a large-scale shallow coal mine with convenient mining could be detected between the peaks in the northern section of Wujianshan. It would also make it more economical to dig channels to connect the Puyang River, Shitang River and Shiliang River.
value.
Since Han Qian started running Qiuhu Mountain, over the years, it has become very common in the Gyeonggi area to use coal or charcoal instead of firewood for cooking, use gas to make limestone, bricks and tiles, and smelt copper and iron.
Currently, the Gyeonggi region alone consumes 700,000 to 800,000 tons of coal every year.
This is mainly due to the limited shallow coal resources in the Gyeonggi area; and for deeper coal seams, the cost is still too high due to problems such as drainage, maintenance of mine pits, and invisible, flammable and explosive mine carbon gas. This
As a result, the price of coal in the Gyeonggi region has dropped by about half compared to ordinary firewood.
If the price of coal can be further reduced by half, Han Qian estimates that the amount of coal used in the Gyeonggi region alone can be increased by at least two or three times; not to mention that it can be exported through waterways to the wealthy Runzhou and other cities along Taihu Lake.
It is true that shallow coal seams have been discovered in Wujianshan, but how rich are the coal seam resources and whether they are worth large-scale development? People are being sent into the mountains for further surveys. Han Qian is also planning to go to the northern section of Wujianshan depending on the disaster situation.
Take a look among the peaks.
After all, truly large-scale development included building post roads and weirs, connecting water and land channels with the Mopan Valley Post Road and Puyang River and Shiliang River waterways, and even building hardwood tracks between mines and docks.
It is a costly project.
Only large, shallow mines that are easy to mine and can produce hundreds of thousands of tons of coal annually are worthy of such a huge investment.
At present, the coal mines developed in the areas of Qingcang Mountain, Ruxu Mountain and Huaiyang Mountain near the river water network have a total annual output of more than 200,000 tons. It is difficult to meet the subsequent expanding coal demand of Tangyi, let alone supply Gyeonggi.
