    ?

    A day is fleeting.

    It's noon this day.

    Lan Changhe personally went outside the city, and interrogated Mo Feng and others in front of all the people.  Yesterday, the governor's mansion had arranged for someone to issue an order, saying that Mo Feng and others would be interrogated, and that they would distribute grain seeds for free.  Therefore, after the news spread, the crowds of people gathered were innumerable. Circle after circle of people blocked the area outside the city. It was overcrowded and completely blocked.

    When Lan Changhe announced the crimes of Mo Feng and others, and directly executed Mo Feng and others in public, he finally announced that grain seeds would be distributed free of charge according to their household registration. At that time, the people could go directly to the governor's office to collect them.

    Although the official announcement was made before, the news was different from the mouth of the governor, Lan Changhe.  All the people in Chang'an were rejoiced and excited, and they were even more grateful to Lan Changhe.

    However, Lan Changhe didn't stay long, and left directly.  However, Lan Changhe never returned to the governor's mansion, but went straight to the palace. Now that the matter is resolved, he has to make a report to Du Qi.

    This is what to do now.

    Lan Changhe came to the palace to ask for an audience. After entering the main hall, Lan Changhe saluted and first talked about today's disposal and the fact that he might eventually buy grain seeds from Han Yun and distribute them to the people for free.

    After explaining all the matters, Lan Changhe said, "Your Majesty, what I plan to do next is to use work as relief, keep building fortifications, and keep mobilizing the people to dig ditches so that the people can earn money to support their families and survive this crisis."  Difficult stage. But right now, there is one more difficult matter that requires His Majesty's assistance."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "But it doesn't matter!"

    Lan Changhe's handling, as well as Lan Changhe's plan, were impeccable, and Du Qi was extremely satisfied.  With Lan Changhe as the governor of Jingzhou, Du Qi was not worried about the livelihood of the people in Chang'an or even the entire Jingzhou.

    Lan Changhe said: "I investigated and dealt with Mo Feng and the other merchants' properties. Although I got a lot of money and some food, there is definitely not enough food to survive this summer. The food in the entire Jingzhou has been taken away by Li Shimin.  , There are no grains left in the granary, and the grain obtained from the investigation alone can persist for a period of time, but it cannot last for a long time."

    "Even if Han Yun is asked to help and continue to sell food, it is still not enough. Because the use of work for food is to make the people earn money, but the money must eventually be turned into food. If there is not enough food, Du Qi has to pay for it."  Hungry. From a long-term perspective, it is necessary for the court to dispatch a batch of food to Jingzhou to ensure that thousands of people in Jingzhou can survive this difficult time this summer."

    Lan Changhe said in a deep voice: "After the autumn harvest, it will be easy. After all, Jingzhou is sparsely populated. As long as there are more plants, things will be easy when the autumn harvest comes."

    Du Qi nodded in approval when he heard it. Lan Changhe's consideration was a sophisticated strategy. Under the premise of lack of food in the whole Guanzhong, if the people only rely on the people to cut down on food and clothing, and only rely on the little food that was investigated and dealt with to help the people, it will definitely be far from enough.

    It is simply unrealistic to buy food from the surrounding areas. After all, the surrounding area is also short of food, because the entire Tang Dynasty is already in chaos, there are constant wars everywhere, and there is no food everywhere. To overcome the current difficulty, the only way  It is to transfer food from the country to relieve the people.  After all, the weather in Xia Country is good, there are many areas suitable for farming, and there is enough grain output.

    Du Qi nodded and said, "How much food do you need?"

    Lan Changhe said: "At least 300,000 shi of grain, and this amount may not be enough. After all, at the moment, it is not an easy task to revitalize the entire Jingzhou."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "No problem, I will send you 300,000 shi of grain."

    Lan Changhe excitedly said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

    Du Qidao: "If you want money, I will give you money; if you want food, I will give you food; in a word, I will give you the bottom line. But I hope that this autumn, Chang'an and even Jingzhou will no longer be short of food. Even,  Jingzhou will serve as the granary of the Xia Kingdom, supplying food."

    Lan Changhe said: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."

    Du Qidao: "Say!"

    Lan Changhe Road: "I don't know how Your Majesty plans to attack Li Tang next. But I think that before the autumn harvest, you can stop sending troops to attack Li Tang, but keep the soldiers in the army. In the entire capital  In the road, from Longzhou, Qizhou, and now Jingzhou and other places, the whole line of the army stationed."

    "There are very few people in the area, and the farmlands everywhere are barren. It only needs to be stationed for one season, and the whole Guanzhong will be revitalized, and there will be no hidden dangers for His Majesty. Even the people in the whole Guanzhong will support and follow His Majesty."

    "Conversely, if His Majesty continues to march, the consequences will be extremely serious.risky.  Because the people's life is not easy, the rear is unstable.  Even when the people lack food, it may cause the people to riot.  In a word, people depend on food.  "

    Lan Changhe said: "The only thing to do is to ensure the people's stomachs first, and then consider other things."

    Du Qi nodded and said, "I will consider it."

    "The minister resigns!"

    After Lan Changhe had finished talking, he stood up and left.  After Lan Changhe had retreated, Du Qi thought about it, and arranged for someone to call Shangguanyi.  Shangguanyi looked excited and said, "Your Majesty, are we going to go south to attack Li Shimin?"

    Now Xiao Yuanqi has led his army to leave. Although Ma Yuan and Su Dingfang have not arrived yet, it does not affect Du Qi's army to go to battle.  Therefore, at the moment, Shangguanyi couldn't wait to prepare for the battle. He wanted to go south to Jiangdu with Du Qi, and completely wiped out Li Shimin's army.

    Du Qi shook his head and said, "No, we won't send troops for the time being."

    After Shangguanyi heard it, she was surprised.

    Feel incredible.

    Shangguanyi pondered in his heart: "Your Majesty, could it be that something has changed, and Your Majesty wants to postpone going south to Jiangdu?"

    Du Qi said: "Lan Changhe just came to report and told the current situation in Guanzhong. Today's Jingzhou, even Longzhou, Qizhou, and even Longyou Road, are actually vast and sparsely populated.  Many. After all, the continuous wars have left the place withered, and the lives of the people are difficult.¡±

    Shangguanyi also nodded and said: "Your Majesty, what Lan Cishi said is true. Guanzhong is exhausted and sparsely populated. It is indeed a problem. Datang has fought against our Xia Kingdom several times, and countless soldiers have been lost. Especially in the case of Datang, all  They were government soldiers conscripted from the local area. So after successive losses, countless people died in battle. Or, they were relocated to the territory of Xia Kingdom by us. Therefore, there are few people in Gyeonggi Province and Longyou Province, and the people¡¯s livelihood is very difficult.  not easy."

    Du Qidao: "Right now, our food is all supported by the country. Although there is no shortage of food in the country, it is not easy to transport it from the Xia Kingdom, and the journey is too long. Even if there is a cement road, the consumption will be great.  Under this premise, it is not easy to transport food from the country like this. I plan to make an adjustment for this attack on Datang."

    Shangguanyi asked: "Your Majesty, how to adjust?"

    Shangguanyi thought Du Qi's analysis was correct.

    Just how to adjust it specifically is a major problem.  For a while, Shangguanyi didn't know how Du Qi planned to adjust.  But Shangguanyi was also worried, afraid that the adjustment would not be appropriate, and he didn't want problems to occur at the most critical moment of attacking Datang.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
