The army began training again, and Shao Shude went to the farmland to check the growth of wheat.

Because of the unique environment, the agricultural solar term in Turpan is somewhat different from that in the Central Plains.

In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, if winter wheat was not planted, the Gaochang area usually started to sow wheat in spring in early February (the lunar calendar, the Gregorian calendar in early March, the same below) and harvested in late July.

Barley is sown in mid-to-late February and harvested in May and June. After harvesting, plant a season of miscellaneous grains, corn, millet, sorghum, etc., and harvested in September.

If you plant winter wheat, you will usually sow in October of the previous year and harvest in April of the following year. After harvesting, you can plant another season of miscellaneous grains.

As time goes by, in the Tang Manas, the planting and harvesting time has been delayed, which is generally a one-month deviation from the early Tang Dynasty.

Overall, Gaochang's soil quality is good. If there is enough agricultural water irrigation, the yield will be quite good. Overall, there will be no problem in achieving three-ripening years in two years and will not be inferior to Henan and Hebei.

Among all kinds of grain crops, the yield of overwintering wheat is the highest. However, because there is no snow in Gaochang in winter, wheat is easily affected by low temperatures. If wheat aphids were more harmful to those days, the yield of barley was the highest.

Last year, many fields in Gaochang had planted winter wheat, and they could be harvested at the end of April. And by June, barley could be harvested, spring wheat and mixed grains were harvested in August, and another wave of mixed grains was harvested in September.

The land sowing area has also expanded, with an increase of one or two hundred hectares. The military camps carried out by the personal army of the guards, winter wheat and mixed grains, can provide about 20,000 hu of grain. It can only be said that it is better than nothing.

However, after the rectification of last winter, the area of ​​sowing in spring this year increased by more than 300 hectares, and by autumn, it could add more than 20,000 hu of military rations.

The foundation is being consolidated bit by bit, although the speed is really slow.

"The wheat and barley in Gaochang are unique local varieties." Shao Shude looked at the earring wheat and said, "In the Sinong Temple, you can send someone to see if the Dahe planting area can be expanded.

Some wheat is quite water-consuming, some lack irrigation fields, or can have multiple grains to increase grain production.”

Dahe is sorghum.

According to the "Guangzhi" of Guo Yigong of the Western Jin Dynasty, "big grains are more than 100 meters high, and their sons are like small beans, and they come out of Sogdian countries." Sogdian is not the place of origin, sorghum is native to Africa and was introduced through the Silk Road.

The crops in the Turpan Basin have been proven to be early-mature varieties that adapt to the local climate in later generations. It can only be said that nature is wonderful. Even if you input very ordinary and standard crops from the outside world, it may be a few hundred years later.

Different branches evolved—than animals, plants mutated faster than animals, and artificial cultivation accelerated this process.

"I obey the order." The former secretary, Cui Qi, the current governor of Xizhou, immediately responded.

The current secretary Cui Miao also responded that he had to draft an order and communicate with the Secretariat's official letter.

After being transferred to Secretary-General, he has been silently observing these months.

The lord of the world, the emperor who commands a hundred thousand troops, spends most of his time busy with farming. It sounds incredible, but this is the fact.

This is what the invincible commander, who is well versed in the way to win war, did.

He knew very well what the focus of each war was, and devoted a lot of energy and all resources to it. The outcome of the victory or defeat was often decided at this time.

"Gaochang, that's it." After inspecting the farmland, Shao Shude looked to the West, with his expression full of expectations.

It should be said that he was lucky compared to the Kangxi and Yongzheng and Gan dynasties during the Qing Dynasty.

After the war, there were more than 10,000 people in Yinzhou, and after replenishing immigration in Xizhou, it would exceed 80,000 people. This household registration was only available during the Guangxu period of the late Qing Dynasty, and that was already Lin Zexu and Zuo Zongtang led the people. The result was after the overhaul of the Kaneri.

The supply conditions have improved a lot, which means that he can do more, which is an advantage that cannot be ignored.

In a sense, the Anshi Rebellion was really a turning point in Chinese history.

This rebellion directly shattered the glorious Heavenly Dynasty, and it has not been cleared for a thousand years since then.

In the late Qing Dynasty, was there a large population of Liaodong as in the Bohai Kingdom? It was far inferior to that of the Bohai Kingdom.

In the late Qing Dynasty, there were Gaochang Uighurs in the northwest. Is there a large population in the Khotan era? It is also far inferior to that.

Not to mention the huge changes in the spirit of the people.

The importance of reshaping the spirit is no less light than being the superficial unification of the world.

The virtues of self-confidence, tolerance and modesty cannot be lost from the spiritual world of the Chinese nation.

The Anshi Rebellion has only been over a hundred years. The forces in the Central Plains, the grasslands, and the Western Regions are still in a recession, and everything is still saved.

On the eighth day of the third lunar month, Shao Shude summoned Master Lisheng in the palace.

"It's time for the mage to leave." Shao Shude said, looking at the fat monk with big ears.

Compared to a few months ago, the mage is much richer, which makes people a little ridiculous.

The emperor of the Central Plains came over. His attitude towards monks was not very good, but Master Lisheng ate well and slept well. As expected, Buddhism was profound.

Lian poured a bowl of tea for Master Lisheng.

The monk was flattered. This was Empress Dowager Gaochang, who had a noble status, so he immediately stood up and thanked him.

Lian returned the courtesy and sat back beside Shao Shude.

Master Lisheng glanced at Empress Dowager Lian's bulging belly, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he remembered what kind of person the emperor in front of him was.

This is a decisive and unforbidden warrior!

Unified the Central Plains is still not satisfied, and even sent troops to attack and destroy the four countries of Khitan, Bohai, Changhe and Gaochang. Now he has set his sights on the Great Uighur Kingdom, which is indeed the true nature of a martial artist!

"Where will I go to?" Master Lisheng asked softly.

Shao Shude's eyes were a little erratic, as if he was recalling something. After a long time, he sighed and said, "I remembered an old friend."

"When he was in Lingzhou, he was an envoy of the Han family and went to my camp to surrender." Shao Shude continued: "I can't remember some things very clearly. But I said something to him back then, and I still remember it today, the master Maybe it can be encouraged."

"Please tell me your Majesty." Master Lisheng clasped his hands together and said.

"How is the Pure Land of the West like the Buddha's Kingdom on Earth..." Shao Shude said.

There was Longxing Temple in Lingzhou at that time. The abbot was a master Biancai and he once went out of the city to be a lobbyist for Han Lang.

After Shao Shude captured Lingzhou, he gave Master Biancai two choices: one, bring the monks and tribes with wealth, and go west; the other, go to the grassland to preach. This sentence is said in this context.

Master Biancai later chose to hand over Longxing Temple to his disciple Zengren, and took a group of monks to Dijinze to preach, "resolving the resentment of the Dangxiang people", but he did not go west after all.

At this time, Master Lisheng heard this, but he did not respond as much as Eloquent, but he just kept silent for a long time.

Shao Shude no longer looked at him and drank tea leisurely.

Lian sat obediently beside him, thinking about things silently.

Her only son has been sent to Luoyang, but at the age of forty, a new life has been nurtured in her long-lived body. This feeling is so complicated that when she wakes up at night, she often feels not

reality.

Montessor, who was in the same situation as her, gave birth to a daughter in the twelfth lunar month last year.

If the Montessori was a bit more beautiful before giving birth, the color suddenly became much worse after giving birth, which made Lian feel a little scared.

Compared with them, the daughter-in-law Wei is young and beautiful, and she is charming, which is really enviable.

However, Wei was a little stubborn and was stupid in reading poems and books by Han people. After being favored by the saints, he cried and cleaned his body, saying stupid words such as "Putting all the water of the sea" and "can't wash away the poisonous juice in his body" or "Souling all the poisonous juice in his body" after being favored by the saint.

.

I will be honest when I get pregnant!

"I will obey Your Majesty's will." After weighing the pros and cons, Master Lisheng finally made up his mind, but his expression was quite helpless, which made people want to laugh when they saw it.

"It is great if the master can figure it out." Shao Shude said: "If you need to sell the industry in Gaochang, you can buy more supplies and hire more people, and the court will have it.

Additional rewards. Just go to Kucha. I will reward you with a piece of land to build a temple and a farm. In the future, you will be able to help all living beings and do not let them go astray."

"Your Majesty also asks you to personally give the name of the temple." Master Lisheng said.

"Oh?" Shao Shude became interested. After thinking about it, he said, "The name of the temple is 'Tongguang'. From now on, every prefecture in the Western Regions, as long as the Daxia rule, will be built in Tongguang Temple.

All sentient beings are saved. I give you the privilege of tax exemption, and you can also recruit your own corps, but you need to report to the monk's official for approval."

The rituals are favored and the Buddha's name is low, and it seems to be happy.

"Remember, I support you. If you have any difficulties, report them directly. If you can solve them, you will definitely solve them." Shao Shude said again: "You must tighten the fence and don't let people who are not bad in."

"Your Majesty means..." Master Lisheng hesitated.

"Whoever is the ruthless to you is the enemy." Shao Shude said obscurely.

Master Lisheng knew it in his heart.

Today's words confirm his speculation last year, and he was indeed pushed to the forefront. But he seemed to have no other choice. He had heard of all the miserable situations west of the Pamir Mountains, even in Gaochang.

Everyone else can surrender, and there is a way out, but they have no way out!

*******

"I have planned an order, and Fu Cunshen was appointed as the governor of Beiting, Zhu Jin was appointed as the deputy envoy, and Qingzhen was used as a matter of course to recruit and disperse, resettle immigrants, and refused to follow the expedition, so I have to keep an eye on the flanks of Beiting."

"The Rehai Governor's Office and Rehai Governor's Prefecture were established, with Basaigan as the governor and Sunon as the governor, and the inheritance was unsuccessful."

"The Kucha Jingwei Office was established, with Yang Liang as the Minister of Management and Li Siyuan as the Deputy Minister of Management, and stockpile food, grass and weapons as soon as possible to wait for the army to move south."

"I urge Shazhou to speed up the transfer of grain and grass."

On March 12, a series of orders were issued from the Gaochang Palace and flew everywhere.

Everyone who is familiar with it knows that after a whole winter preparation, the Western Expedition Camp will soon enter a wartime state again.

Fu Cunshen is a long-time general on the battlefield, with rich management and has never been defeated yet. He governed the military and political affairs of Beiting, which only shows that the sage's focus this year is in the south.

Yang Liang and Li Siyuan are both brave and diligent in style, which further proves this judgment - recalling that when the saint attacked Lanzhou, Yang Liang accidentally got an arrow and threatened that he would not kill the person who attacked him would not pull the arrow.

Then he rushed and fought violently, and finally killed the thief, which shocked everyone present.

This is a madman, a madman who doesn't want to live!
