Chapter 1319 Seed


    Fei Qian stood on the top of Pingyang City, slowly patrolling along the inner city, while watching the flow of people inside and outside the city wall. The original city wall of Pingyang has become the inner city, giving Fei Qian the feeling that it is like the expansion of the city in later generations, but I don’t know if the expansion can continue in later generations, then the second ring city will become the third ring, the fourth ring and the fifth ring, Will someone still sing the classic song of the five rings?


    As far as the Han Dynasty alone is concerned, the second ring is probably enough, and the third ring may not be able to support the food consumption of such a large crowd. The throat of human beings is like a bottomless pit, which needs to be filled every day. Although a large population will bring many benefits, it will also require more food and other living materials, which in turn will require higher Transportation efficiency and better means of transportation, before the mechanization of large-scale transportation, this invisible ceiling will inevitably suppress the unlimited expansion of the city.


    Strictly speaking, Pingyang is not a suitable place to be a strategic center. In comparison, Chang''an is more suitable. Pingyang is too far to the north, the weather is relatively cold, and its water intake is completely supported by the Fen River. If it encounters any disasters such as drought, its ability to resist is still relatively weak. Therefore, it is now necessary to gradually consider shifting the focus to Guanzhong.


    But there is no rush, nor is it something that can be done in a day or two.


    Walking on the city wall of Pingyang, Fei Qian had the illusion that he was walking on the Ancheng of the later lineage. There were crowds on both sides, and the men in the northwest always spoke loudly, as if they were about to quarrel. No less than the later generations, the noisy sound wave surged up from the bottom of the city, bringing a breath of vitality.


    With the development of spring plowing, Pingyang became more and more lively day by day, and the peaceful atmosphere became stronger and stronger. Although many families lost some relatives in successive battles, most of them survived, especially After Fei Qian promoted the military medical system in the army, the survival rate of wounds has been greatly improved.


    No matter which dynasty it is, the people at the lowest level will always ask for the lowest things. These people in Pingyang, after offering sacrifices to their deceased relatives, wiped away their tears and started their lives again without any complaints.


    Of course, with the expansion of Feiqian''s current territory, the trade in Pingyang has become more and more prosperous. Not to mention other things, even the silk from Shu has been transported here over mountains and ridges. In previous years it was even more so. Naturally, there are quite a few here in Feiqian, and even Huang Yueying bought a few of them, dangling happily in front of Feiqian...


    For the people who fled to Pingyang from other places, Pingyang is really like a fairyland. There is no war, no cavalry galloping around to arrest refugees. Diversion, but timely deployment, supplies and care along the way, made these refugees feel as if they had entered a whole new world and saw the hope of surviving.


    At first, those who came to Pingyang were refugees from Heluo, and then there were those from Guanzhong. Now, the main source of refugees is from Jizhou, especially in the northern area of ??Jizhou. Those with their families struggled to find a way out in the Taihang Mountains. Come, then pass Taiyuan and Shangdang, come here, after a short stay, then turn to Yinshan.


    Along the way, fewer and fewer people die, and hope grows bigger and bigger. Once people have the hope of living, they have the strength and methods to overcome difficulties, especially after the beginning of spring, as the greenery gradually spreads again. After all, these people seem to have regained their vitality, supporting each other and moving forward, towards their hopeful world.


    "General! Jujube is here!" The soldier reported.


    Fei Qian turned his head, saw Zaozhi and the soil stained on the corner of Zaozhi''s clothes, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "Zijing went to patrol the fields again?"


    When I was in Jingxiang, Zaoyi spent a lot of time in the fields in order to verify the knowledge in the agricultural books. Even in Pingyang these years, he did not change this habit because of his official position.


    Zaozhi looked down, smiled, and said: "I heard that the lord was looking for me, so I came a bit busy, and I couldn''t change clothes. I hope the lord will forgive me."


    Fei Qian waved his hands and said, "You and I love brothers, there is no need to be like this. Why, haven''t the acres of Zhuanghe in the experimental field been plowed yet?" Only for tossing.


    Zaozhi smiled and said: "I had some new ideas two days ago, I want to try to see if changing the distance between Zhuang and He will affect the output..."


    Fei Qian laughed, and said: "It''s possible to consider encrypting it a little bit more... Because the fertile soil is applied to the field, the field power will naturally increase... But it can''t be too dense, otherwise Zhuang He competes with each other for field power, which is not beautiful..."


    Zaozhi listened, and was a little dazed. After pondering for a while, he said that it made sense, and then he turned around and went to the field to test it...


    Fei Qian hurriedly stopped him, and said, "No rush, no rush, just let this matter go on...Zi Jing, I asked you to come here this time because I want you to go to Guanzhong first, and urge the implementation of the three auxiliary spring plowing in Guanzhong..."


    "Go to Guanzhong?" Zaoyi said.


    Fei Qian nodded.


    "Then wait until I''m done with the spring plowing in Pingyang before going there?" Zaozhi was a little bit reluctant to part with the half-finished test field just now.


    Feiqian shook his head and said, "No, Zijing, you''d better leave within two days..."


    Zaozhi was stunned for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "So, I will pack up and leave tomorrow."


    Fei Qian nodded and said: "Don''t worry, I urge you to leave early because your next thing is very important... After so many years here in Pingyang, Chun Geng is basically perfect, even if Zijing is no longer here Staring, it shouldn’t be a big problem, but Chang’an Sansuke is different..."


    Zaozhi was a little confused, showing a hint of doubt.


    Fei Qian glanced at Zaozhi, then pointed to the refugees who were migrating to the Yin Mountain far outside the city, and said, "Why can these refugees go north with peace of mind, even though they have nothing now?"


    Zaozhi thought for a moment and said, "Because they saw the scene here? Will someone take care of them if they know?"


    Feiqian nodded and said: "That''s right, only food and grass can calm people''s hearts. The fields around Pingyang are the people''s hearts here, and the Sanfu land needs to calm people''s hearts..."


    Zaozhi was also very happy, and immediately said: "Understood, but... the follow-up of the spring plowing here..."


    "Let Derun take over..." Fei Qian said, "During this time, isn''t Derun busy with you? With him taking over, I believe Zijing can rest assured..."


    "Haha, too..." Zaozhi nodded in agreement, then cupped his hands and said, "Then I''ll go prepare first and leave."


    "It''s so good, I won''t give it away."


    Fei Qian returned the gift, and then watched Zao Zhi go away.


    Let Zaoyi go to Guanzhong. In addition to the seemingly stable people in Guanzhong, there is another extremely important reason, but it can’t be said for the time being. Maybe when the fruit is ripe, someone will realize that the original seed Already at such an early moment, it has been sown into the ground...


    ………………


    Han Sui was very depressed this spring.


    As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to hurt the muscles and bones, but that refers to ordinary people. If they are old, once the injury affects the muscles and bones, they will not be able to recover in a short period of time.


    In addition, Han Sui has been fighting on horseback for more than ten years. At first, he was physically strong, and he was suppressed by all injuries and ailments. Now that he is old, and this time he was also seriously injured, and the injuries accumulated over the years are also a brain It was sent out concurrently, which almost cost Han Sui half his life.


    Therefore, even if the spring breeze brings warmth, Han Sui is still wrapped in furs, and because of the recovery from pathology, his body has become thinner, and his original double chin and slightly bulging stomach have disappeared without a trace. From the point of view of body shape alone, they are like two different people.


    Of course, in addition to physical damage, there is also spiritual devastation.


    For an ambitious person, what is more sad and painful than losing power?


    Moreover, in this pain, there is also the anger of being abandoned...


    "General Han..."


    An old and weak voice came, but Han Sui couldn''t help shaking in the fur, because Han Sui knew that this old and weak voice was just an appearance.


    "Meet Li Changshi..." Han Sui turned around and bowed his hands.


    Li Ru was also wrapped in furs, but his footsteps were much lighter than Han Sui''s. After walking in front of Han Sui, he nodded and said, "The scenery is really good! Watching the mountain scenery will refresh your mind, and listening to Lin Tao will comfort your life! Han The general is so excited!"


    Han Sui pulled out a fake smile, although he tried his best to cover it up, but there was still a hint of ferocity under the thin jawbone: "Li Changshi was joking... I just took a casual look..."


    "It''s good to have a look..." Li Ru nodded indifferently, and then continued, "Yesterday, the people who went to Jincheng came back...well, strictly speaking, five people went, and only two came back...General Han Are you interested in finding out more?"


    Han Sui rolled his eyes twice, and said, "I also ask Li Changshi to speak up."


    "The last time, I sent someone to deliver a letter, but what happened..." Li Ru said slowly, "There was no news from the person or the letter. I thought it was because I encountered a wolf or some other accident on the road..."


    "So, this time, I specially sent two groups of people..." Li Ru turned his head, glanced at Han Sui and said, with a faint smile, "The first three are messengers, and the last two are messengers." It fell far away...In the end, General Han, guess what I found?"


    "..." Han Sui was silent, and his intuition told him that the information must not be beneficial to him.


    "...When the three messengers in front arrived near Jincheng..." Li Ru didn''t mean to whet his appetite, and said directly, "They were stopped by General Han''s men...then they were taken to the western suburbs of Jincheng...I think General Han is very concerned about the situation. The area around Jincheng is also familiar...Then the people I sent to follow found the bodies of three messengers in the water in the western suburbs of Jincheng..."


    Li Ru said it plainly, but it was like a thunderbolt rang in Han Sui''s ears.


    "This! This is impossible!"


    Han Sui couldn''t help but roared loudly, and immediately attracted several unfriendly eyes from the guards who followed Li Ru.


    "The two people behind, dressed as lone small traders, went into Jincheng to inquire about it..." Li Ru ignored Han Sui, and continued, slowly, slowly, panting twice after saying a word, "In Jincheng Among them, General Han...my people found something more interesting..."


    "What''s the matter?" This time Han Sui couldn''t help but asked.


    Li Ru laughed twice: "Ah, I''m sorry... General Han is already a dead man in Jincheng... No wonder all the people I sent to deliver the letter were killed..."


    Han Sui raised his eyebrows, and shouted: "This is impossible!" Han Sui wanted to say something, but he coughed because of the shortness of breath, and he bent over immediately, coughing up snot and tears, and gasped for breath. No, in this age, it is not easy to survive the knife wound and inflammation. As for the recovery of the body, it really cannot be done in a short while.


    Li Ru stood quietly, and waited until Han Sui seemed to have coughed out all the air in his lungs, and then he sat down on the ground panting for breath, and then said: "Well, General Han can also think that what I said is all false ... it doesn''t matter. ...I''m just saying this, and according to my calculations, your good son-in-law and good nephew will soon come here holding high the banner of revenge for you, and you don''t bother to see it with your own eyes..."


    After Li Ru finished speaking, he left, leaving Han Sui with extremely confused thinking, lying on the ground panting in pain.


    It must be fake!


    fake!


    Han Sui thought angrily, but deep in his heart there was a voice hovering in a low voice, yes, it is true! Only after Han Sui died, his son-in-law and his nephew could take over his army and connections, gain a firm foothold in Jincheng, and gather the tribe in his name...


    These two **** beasts!


    They don''t care whether Han Sui is really alive or not. They just need to fully divide the troops left behind by Han Sui within this period of time. As long as they firmly control the troops, they are equal to controlling everything!


    If you kill the messenger, you will die without proof!


    Even if the incident happens, just push two-five-six and pretend that you don''t know anything. What will happen to Han Sui who has lost his military power and connections?


    How else can you make a good son-in-law and a good nephew?


    Han Sui, who has no military power, is just an ordinary old man, even worse than ordinary old people, a thin and hurt old man...


    Never let this happen!


    Han Sui turned over and stood up from the ground, wiped off the snot and saliva stained on his face due to coughing, and said in a deep voice, "Take me to find Li Changshi..."
