Vol 2 Chapter 557: hiring

In the summer of the second year of Jianxing (AD 228), on the ninth day of April, Liu Chan officially changed to Yuan Xingyuan, Liu Bei was dead, and Jianxing ’s country name was no longer usable. This year was also called the first year of Xingyuan, and the world was full of wind and waves. Cao Wei's general Xu Huang Tun Bingyang Xingyang, eyeing the tigers, the surrounding situation is also treacherous, but the Han side is still in an orderly way of development and construction.
At the beginning of April, Liu Yi expressed his emperor, hoping to build 300 farms in the north, and mobilized a group of farmers to open up wasteland. Under Zhuge Liang ’s initiative, according to Liu Yi ’s request, 30,000 people were recruited to enter Beidi County At the same time, Liu Yi built a fortification of up to three hundred miles along the Xihe River. At the same time, the high platform and the arrow tower can monitor the range of more than ten miles across the river.
In the same month, Liu Yi sent people to the land of Hetao, and built more than 30 farms on the opposite bank of Lian County. The area of ​​influence expanded along the river bank to the south for more than 300 miles, and there were also hundreds of miles in the east and west directions. Within the sphere of influence of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu or Xianbei tribes in the territory whoever received the help of Liu Yi to build farms, Liu Yi will send farmers to station to help them farm, but at the same time, these farms no longer consider themselves Huns or Xianbei. .
In Chang'an City Wall, Pang Tong, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei have each gone to Jingzhou or Shu to prepare for war. Today, the political and political affairs are hosted by leftist Zhuge Liang. Looking at the information sent by Xiliang Front, Zhuge Liang gave the letter to Deng Ai with a bitter smile. : "Bo Yuan Zhao Shi Zai went to Lian County to help, how about Shi Zai's intention?"
Deng Ai read the letter carefully, and his face became a little weird, and he smiled bitterly for a long time: "Sure enough, let the gentleman send troops, no matter what kind of battle will become like this."
Zhuge Liang nodded bitterly with a smile. Was it originally that Liu Yi was out of town in Xiliang this time to solve the problem of Hu? Do n’t let the Huns enter in the middle of the war in the Central Plains. The Huns were honest when Cao Wei took charge of Yongliang A few years later, but with the death of Cao Cao and Cao Pi in recent years, the power of the Wei Dynasty at the border began to shrink, and the Huns began to make trouble again in the past two years.
The demise of the population in Xiliang is not only caused by the harsh environment, but also the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Qiang people ’s loyalty to the Koubian every year. According to the original idea, Liu Yi went to Xiliang and could frustrate the Huns and the Xianbei. For the situation of the Xiongnu, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong only knew about books, so they chose Liu Yi, who has always been a relatively stable style, as the commander-in-chief, and dared not do too radical.
Liu Yi was overfulfilling their task and started to build a farm in the enclave of Hetao, and even now came running to ask Deng Ai to help Tuntian in the past.
Although I have n’t seen the farmstead mentioned by Liu Yi, judging from the farmyard drawings sent by Liu Yi, this is to divide the grassland with wooden walls. The borders of the farmhouses are all equipped with sentry towers, For battle-type buildings like arrows towers, is it to force the Huns and Xianbei who are good at guerrilla warfare to fight against him in position?
Although I do n’t know Liu Yi ’s specific plan, I suddenly swept away 300 hectares of land on the Hetao Plain and built a farm. Although he did n’t say clearly, this farm of 300 hectares of land should now be regarded as the territory of the Han Dynasty. ? Step by step to gather the Xiongnu, Xianbei herdsmen, small and medium-sized tribes with this farming situation, and use this river of land as a pasture for the big Han?
Judging from Liu Yi's actions today, Zhuge Liang believes that Liu Yi must have this idea, especially now that it is the busy time of the Hu people. Even if the Xianbei and the Huns understand, it is difficult to react at the moment, until after the autumn When will Liu Yi ’s farm plan expand? No one can tell this, but with the current investment, Liu Yi will definitely continue to expand, and eventually turn the Hetao Plain into a pasture of Dahan, then the land of the West River, and the vast grassland to the north.
Of course, this is only a theory. The entire grassland from the western region to eastern Liaoning has tens of thousands of miles, as well as three to five thousand miles from north to south. This may not be possible in this lifetime, but as long as Hetao is occupied in this way, it would be great for the Han In other words, it not only has Ma Yuan, but also has a way to enter the state.
"Bo Yuan Letters asked you to help Tuntian, how does Shizai look?" After thinking about Liu Yi's plan, Zhuge Liang didn't know how to evaluate it. If ordinary people were to do it, even Zhuge Liang could not do this step. , But what Liu Yi built is quite magical. Since Liu Yi now puts forward this plan, I must have some grasp in my heart, but for Deng Ai, Liu Yi obviously pays more attention to Deng Ai ’s own opinions, so did not let Zhuge Liang Send Deng Ai directly, but ask Deng Ai's own opinion.
"This ..." Deng Ai hesitated and bowed to Zhuge Liang: "Guru, I want to ask my mother's intentions, if possible, I want to take her with me."
Zhuge bright spot nodded, then looked at Deng Aidao: "Whether the northwest bitter cold, is there some ..."
Mother Deng is now forty. Some people from Jingzhou came to Chang'an, so they couldn't bear it. Now they have to run westward. Zhuge Liang worried that Mother Deng's body would be unbearable.
"Master, rest assured, where there is a gentleman, how can it be a place of bitter cold?" Deng Ai laughed.
Zhuge Liang nodded when he heard the words, indeed, and ... As Liu Yi ’s old friend, Liu Yi and Deng Mu had some unclear relationship. Maybe they were really worried, maybe others might be worried. Go right away.
"Well, go back and ask, if Mrs. Deng agreed, set off as soon as possible, Bo Yuan's side is afraid that there will be a war this autumn." Zhu Geliang asked.
"Hello!" Deng Ai promised to bow and retreat.
Zhu Geliang did n’t leave anybody. In the letter that Liu Yi sent this time, he did n’t just want Deng Ai alone. Of course, he did n’t want too many talents in the DPRK. Besides Deng Ai, they were all talents with skills. In Liu Yi ’s words In other words, it is the kind of professional talent, or Mo, or Fa, or even home. When I go there, I also set up an academy and teach disciples, which is similar to the interest of Yunnan Academy, Yuxiang Academy, and Mocheng Academy, but this time There are a lot of people who go there. According to Liu Yi, all the basic knowledge is taught, and more in-depth knowledge is needed. You need to go to major colleges in Dahan to study.
Indistinctly, Zhu Geliang noticed some of Liu Yi's thoughts. When the two were still in Longzhong in the early years, Liu Yi once said some similar concepts. The academy graded from the professor's lowest basic knowledge to the top, and the court was from the highest level. Choose talents in their institutions of higher learning.
Liu Yi obviously had this thought before, but it ’s a pity that neither Shuzhong nor Jingzhou has such a condition. First, there were not enough talents at the time. Second, the resistance was great. Those academies have already been dissatisfied by many people. Entering the era of reading for all, if knowledge and books are no longer scarce materials, I am afraid that many people will come out to oppose it?
Zhuge Liang guessed that Liu Yi might have built a printing factory there and printed books on a large scale. He really did not miss any possible opportunity!
Zhuge Liang did not prevent this, but did not support it. It took a lot of time to achieve this. It must be at least three generations of people working together. This is still optimistic, but people will eventually grow old and die. If there is one When Liu Yi is gone, can someone succeed him and continue his unfinished business?
Even if there are people who inherit Liu Yi's will, does Liu Yi have the ability? No one can make it clear that Zhuge Liang chose to be a bystander, Liu Yi can succeed best, if not ... at least he can save his life.
Deng Ai said goodbye to Zhuge Liang, but when he returned home, he saw Lu Lingqi's maidservant here.
Lv Lingqi and Deng Mother are sisters in the boudoir. For decades, Deng has been in the Liu family for a long time. She has taken care of Lv Lingqi for a long time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a sister.
The maidservant apparently recognized Deng Ai, and bowed quickly to salute.
"Auntie is here?" Deng Ai asked with a smile as he walked in.
"Yes." The maid nodded and greeted Deng Ai: "The slave-maid will spread the word."
"No need, here is Deng Mansion, Shizai goes home, how can it be passed on?" Because it is a walled structure, and it needs to accommodate the entire Chang'an people, the building of the whole walled city is relatively dense ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Mo said that the official's home is the temporary palace, and the area is not large. Deng Ai came back and naturally heard Lu Lingqi who was talking to Deng Mu.
Deng Ai nodded toward her maid, then strode in and saw Lü Lingqi, seeing the gift quickly.
"I've seen auntie," Deng Ai said in a proper manner.
"You and I are considered friends, Shizai doesn't have to pay much courtesy, I'm bothering." Lv Lingqi nodded with a smile, and Deng Ai grew up watching her.
"Where does the wife say?" Mother Deng took Lu Lingqi's hand and said: "Ai Er is a junior, and it is appropriate to salute you."
"Shi Zai, please ask me to go to the palace before the husband leaves, please ask the queen mother to tell you a family matter. Now the queen mother has agreed, but according to the husband's intention, you both have to agree." Lu Lingqi looked at Deng Aidao with a smile.
"This ..." Deng Ai is almost thirty, after all, as I said before, but the woman has a fatal life and has been unmarried. Now Lu Lingqi mentioned that Deng Ai also has some expectations. After all, she has been single for more than 20 years. This is still very eager to look at his mother.
"It is the daughter of the general, Guan Feng, you should have seen it." Mother Deng smiled.
Deng Ai heard that a heroic figure flashed in his mind. As Guan Yu's daughter, Guan Feng was in Chang'an, but I don't know how many Junjie wanted to be with him for a hundred years, but Guan Yu's vision was high. Generally speaking, the so-called Junjie didn't look too much. Achieve.
"Are we getting older?" Deng Ai saw Lu Lingqi looking at herself, a little embarrassed.
"Not much, you just say whether you agree or not." Lu Lingqi smiled.
"Ai naturally listens to her mother." Deng Ai bowed his head.
This basically agreed, Lu Lingqi and Deng Mu smiled at each other.
"However," Deng Ai smiled bitterly: "Mr. Ai called Ai to go to Beidi to help Mr. Tiantian Tuobian. Ai returned this time, and also asked his mother's intention."
