Chapter 625

Ten seas slowly pulled from the dock to the sea.

Seawater is very corrosive. Even if the wooden boat sails for two, three, three, and four years, it will be maintained, and the cabin will be reinforced and the tung oil will be repainted before it can be put into the water again.

In ancient times, there were also ancient people's methods to keep the boat on the platform. They used the tide to roll the wood, and then pulled the boat ashore step by step. To this end, Wang Ju also asked the students to study some labor-saving machinery.

There are too many ships, and a lot of economic value will be generated. Just maintenance alone will invisibly drive a large amount of GDP in the local area.

More than four years have passed, and under the promotion of Wang Ju, it is hard for outsiders to imagine the wealth of Quanzhou. Strictly speaking, Quanzhou is now close to the level of the middle of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Of course, it does not conform to the law of objective development. In the early stage, it was purely driven by Wang Ju's huge profits brought by using the gold finger. But when you go back, you can't fish wither and fish, and this momentum will slow down quickly. However, Wang Ju was no longer in Quanzhou at that time.

But several people did not think about the changes in Quanzhou, but were observing the people.

With the launch of ten ships, groups of people boarded the ships under the command of sailors and managers on the ships, and some sailors set sail and then quickly left Quanzhou Port.

"There are still more than 100,000 people in Quanzhou that have not taken away." Huang Hua said.

"Menzhi, let's go next year."

"Next year Zi'an..."

"Don't worry, I'll recommend someone to come here."

"Mr. Jiefu's reform has really hurt the people."

"We can't say that. The main reason is the major disaster, and then the dense population. Finally, Mr. Jiefu made money and failed to do a good job of comforting the people. This led to many people coming in. Next year, fewer people will flow in."

"If the court is not afraid, I don't know how many people will migrate in a year?"

"If the court is not afraid and migrates all, at least more than one million people can be migrated a year. At most ten years, the overseas population will be basically satisfied. But this is a false proposition. If the court is not afraid and the population increases rapidly, the court will send officials to manage it. Once officials go over to manage it, what is the difference between making money from the Central Plains? Will it still attract the people of the Central Plains?"

In fact, in the past few years, Wang Ju did not make money directly from immigrants. All his expenses were still various huge profits, and even subsidized immigrants, plus his guidance. Therefore, the overseas settlements were expanding steadily. If not, the people would leave their homes for the first time and even leave the Central Plains, then people would be confused and even manage them, let alone develop rapidly.

Moreover, in order to migrate as much as possible to the people, the expenses were huge, so Wang Ju didn't have much cash in his hands. On the contrary, he owed three stadiums more than 900,000 stones of rice. There were too many people coming and they had to provide them with food and drink, so the food they raised was insufficient.

"But this time it's a big deal."

"I'm just about to go to Beijing."

After a few days after Wang Ju said this, Zhao Xu issued an edict to ask him to go to Beijing to report his duties.

But it has little to do with this immigrant.

After receiving the imperial edict, Wang Ju immediately said to his concubine Qiong Niang: "Let's go back to the capital and get the marriage of the third brother by the way."

"I'm worried about my third brother..."

"What's wrong with the third brother?"

"Last time my younger sister got married, Jun brought her mother from the security guard, but the third brother has always been very cold to her mother. If Jun brought her mother to this wedding, the third brother would not want to. If he didn't accept her, he would become Li Ding if he didn't do it in the future."

"Fai'er, you're thinking too much. My third brother failed the provincial examination in both palaces. I've seen his studies again. It's probably difficult to win the Jinshi in this life."

"I'm not blaming you. If it weren't for your suggestion, there would be so few places."

"Fai'er, don't say this. If you spread it, those scholars who failed the exam may all hate me. In fact, it doesn't matter. Even if you pass the Jinshi, your third brother's studies are mostly Jinshi, and it is difficult to be a high-ranking official. It's better to follow me and get some freedom."

Fei'er didn't say anything when she thought of such a vast territory on the other side of the sea, but Fei'er was confused when she thought about it.

Wang Ju entered Beijing again.

As soon as he arrived in the capital, he was summoned into the palace by Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu asked him to sit down and said, "Jiaozhi..."

"Your Majesty, I will talk about this Jiaozhi, but I ask Your Majesty to send someone to record it to the ministers in the court."

"Okay, then you can talk." Zhao Xu said, and blunt his mouth at the eunuch on the side.

After the Yongzhou tragedy, there were many rumors in the court, so let’s see how Wang Ju analyzed it.

"Your Majesty, our dynasty has always been in the north, and the south rarely set up city defenses, so the first momentum of Nong Zhigao's rebellion was unstoppable. Not only Nong Zhigao, but the people of Jiaozhi saw that my troops in the south were empty. Although they were not as arrogant as Nong Zhigao, they had many illegal acts, such as repeated small-scale invasions and plunders, and they were in urgent need of strong people during their expansion. Therefore, they colluded with some illegal barbarian merchants in Guangnan, abducted and kidnapped the people of our dynasty and sold them to Jiaozhi as slaves. However, our dynasty in the south has not paid much attention to it, otherwise it would be another scene of sinful history that makes people feel cold."

Zhao Xu gritted his teeth.

"I will talk about Shen Qi and Liu Yi again. Although they mean to be Jiaozhi, some of Jiaozhi's practices are becoming more and more unscrupulous. But what did they do? I gather local resident, train in my spare time, teach water wars, and prohibit trade. Although this is a bit controversial, it is also because Jiaozhi sent scouts to investigate the reality of our dynasty many times over the years, so Shen and Liu banned trade. Why did the Jiaozhi army know me well when it invaded? Isn't these scouts inquiring?"

"this……"

"Your Majesty, Su Jian died heroically, but Your Majesty will look at Su Jian's Lu Bu and Jiaozhi's Lu Bu, and then Su Jian will stop the defense of Baojia Tuding City. How many local troops were there in Yongzhou when Jiaozhi invaded? By the way, I seem to have heard that when the Khitan envoys agreed on the border, Han Qi wrote a letter, and Su Jian's approach was like Han Qi wrote a letter."

Jiaozhi invaded and massacred, but they also made a statement with confidence: First, "The people of their troops who rebel into China will be sanctuated by officials. I sent envoys to complain to Guilin. I did not report it; I also sent envoys to go to Guangzhou to complain, but I did not report it. Therefore, I led the troops to pursue the rebels." Second, "Guilin read the Dong Ding. He clearly said he wanted to attack"; third, "China was the method of assisting the soldiers to help the soldiers, and was poor and the people were poor. Now I sent troops to save each other."

Article 2 and Article 3 There are many places where Su Jian attacked Liu Yi, and Shen Qi and Wang Ju's Lu Bu overlapped, that is, Su Jian's attack on Liu Yi, Shen Qi and Wang Ju's Lu Bu happened to become the "evidence" of the Jiaozhi people.

But can these three reasons be true?

Let’s look at the first point. Even if the Song Dynasty took in some Jiaozhi people who came to vote, did Jiaozhi less in public and secretly? Why did they do nothing? It would be a serious crime to do it when it was the Song Dynasty. But it doesn’t matter. The US imperialist announced the wheel of taking in China, corrupt officials, but China did not dare to take in Snowden. But is Jiaozhi the US imperialist?

Article 2: Gui Zi (referring to Guangxi's pacification and military commander) reviewed the local soldiers and was in charge of Jiaozhi's fart matter. Even if Zhang Shi was training local soldiers in Hebei, the Liao Kingdom only complained and continued to argue with the Song Dynasty on the border. Did he send troops?

On the other hand, the Liao Kingdom, Xixia and Jiaozhi were training troops on the border. Will the Song Dynasty send troops?

Besides, even if the Song Dynasty had the intention of plotting to Jiaozhi, it was just that the Liao Kingdom came to blackmail and the whole country was drought. Will the troops be sent to Jiaozhi at this time? Moreover, as a nominal vassal state of the Song Dynasty, at least an envoy would be sent to ask, and let me listen to an explanation from the Song Dynasty.

Article 3: The Song Dynasty reformed the matter and kept in charge of Jiaozhi's farts. Because of the Song Dynasty reformed the situation, Jiaozhi could send troops to intervene. What a fucking awesome than the American emperor.

"You also know this slut?"

"After the Yongzhou tragedy, I sent someone to investigate it secretly."

But the invasion of Jiaozhi was not so smooth, but Su Jian wanted to take peace as the most important thing, and he revealed the complaints, Liu Yi and Wang Ju.

Why is it Wang Ju? It was Wang Ju's suggestion that Lingnan must be prepared to prevent Jiaozhi from invading. So how to prepare? First, set up border troops and train border troops, rather than local soldiers and baojia, it is a formal border troops. Second, consolidate and repair the city to defend border villages. Third, add equipment and armor.

Liu Yi did do this, but this violated Su Jian. He wanted to take peace as the most important thing and not disturb the people. Indeed, whether it was the border army, the formation of baojia, or the training of local soldiers, it would bring more or less some burden to the people.

However, Mr. Su Da, what is the opposite of you? A country! Even if the two countries are peaceful, we should prevent it from retaining four or five thousand local soldiers. But Su Jian did the opposite. Even Liu Yi asked him to send someone to lead the armor transferred from the court, and he disdained it.

Jiaozhi invaded, and Su Jian hurriedly asked Liu Yi for help.

Liu Yi sneered, I asked you to consolidate the city defense, but you abandon the city defense. I asked you to add border troops to train local soldiers, but you did not add one army to train one army, but instead disbanded a large number of Baojia local soldiers and took the initiative to set off defense. Let's solve the problem by yourself.

Su Jian had to solve the problem by himself. This time he did not mention Kuanmin anymore and hurriedly recruited troops, but it was too late that he had recruited more than 4,000 local soldiers until the Jiaozhi army was at the city. Fortunately, his predecessor left a large number of divine arm bows, which was said to have shot and killed more than 10,000 Jiaozhi invading soldiers. However, the troops in his hands made him very few after he disbanded, only more than 4,000 people, of which nearly 2,000 were temporarily recruited militias and were not familiar with fighting, so the defense of Yongzhou City gradually became difficult.

At this time, the traitor came out, and a local Han man offered advice. The Jiaozhi people used bags to pack mud and cushion mud bags to break through the city. If they were placed in the tragic attack and defense battle in Rouyuan Village, it would be a joke. But it was not a joke now. Because Su Jian had few troops in his hand and could not stop them, tens of thousands of mud bags were piled up and gradually equal to the city. The Jiaozhi army attacked the city from this mud bag and dirt mountain. On the day the city was broken, Su Jian asked his family members to commit suicide, and he himself set fire to commit suicide. However, in order to vent his anger, the Jiaozhi people massacred all 50,000 soldiers and civilians in Yongzhou City.

This is just one place in Yongzhou City, and almost 100,000 soldiers and civilians were killed everywhere, and even monks and Taoists were not spared.

However, Jiaozhi was obviously a little smarter than Nong Zhigao. Although Guizhou and others began to have a cotton planting base for Kapok Se, Jiaozhi did not go north again. Then they took Qin, Lian, the people of Yong and the people of the three prefectures, and escorted them together and withdrew their troops back.

"So Su Yan has also..."

"Your Majesty, Su Jian was executed generously and died in the national crisis. Even if he had any mistakes, he could not care about it. However, although Su Jian had the ambition of Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan, his vision was far less than that."

This means that after the tragedy, the court was going to hold the person responsible, which was the border disaster that Chen Qi and Liu Yi had taken on. So Chen Qi was placed in Yingzhou and Liu Yi placed in Suizhou. However, Su Jian's son Su Ziyuan was appointed as the entrusted official in the west, Zhao Xu personally said to him: "In the past, Zhang Xu Xu of the Tang Dynasty guarded Juyang and defended Jianghuai. They were not far away from your father."

Liu Yi must have made a serious mistake.

However, even Wang Ju almost made a fuss in. Many ministers wrote letters to impeach Wang Ju and Wang Ju's immigrants.

But when Wang Ju talked about the possible invasion of Jiaozhi, it was said in front of many important officials. Although Lu Huiqing, Han Jiang, Cai Ting and Zhang Dun were no longer in the capital, the others were still in the capital.

Therefore, Zhao Xu told the truth.

However, some people impeached Wang Ju to move the people.

However, after these memorials were uploaded, they were left unpublished. Seeing that the situation expanded, Wang Anshi demoted three or four intermediate officials in a row, and then suppressed the opposition.

Quanzhou is a topic of Wang Anshi's ban.

Although the migration made many people vaguely reject it, there were indeed many benefits. After all, the moving people were all over the poor households. It was because of the migration that these maritime merchants donated more than 6 million stones of grain, especially the more than 3 million stones of grain in the seventh year of Xining. Without these more than 3 million stones of grain, the court would be even more difficult.

Moreover, due to the expansion of maritime trade, it has also increased a lot of revenue to the treasury and internal treasury, which is also what Wang Anshi values.

Therefore, he put Wang Ju in Quanzhou and treated him coldly, but he didn't expect any changes in Quanzhou.

Zhao Xu thought for a while and asked, "What if Su Yan obeys Liu Yi's orders?"

"There will be disasters on Guangnan West Road. Jiaozhi has been expanding its wars for years, and the whole country is invading. Lingnan has empty troops and cannot defend fully. But at least it will not lose Yongzhou City, but the people in other areas will still suffer serious injuries."

"What if Jiaozhi is destroyed?"

"If Jiaozhi is destroyed and the power of Champa, as long as our dynasty is not hostile to it, most of them will not dare to invade our dynasty. However, border troops must be set up, not only the enemy country, but also the governance of barbarians. If border troops are stationed in various states and the barbarians are afraid, there will be no repeated rebellions and plundering. Moreover, our dynasty system, most of the officials have been moved every year, and the military and political divisions are divided layer by layer, and the number of border troops is not large, so there will be no Anshi Rebellion. If you have to worry about everything, it will only be too corrected, too much is too much."

"Why did you write this memorial?" Zhao Xu took out a memorial and asked.

This is the memorial written by Wang Ju to the court not long ago, and only said one sentence: If the court needs it next year, please ask me to preside over the affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi, and give me the right to act with advantage.

Its background was when Guo Kui's army headed south, Wang Ju made this memorial in a daze. Everyone panicked together, and what was even more terrible was that Zhang Feng also made a memorial... (To be continued...)
