Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"I planted the seeds recommended by all the gentlemen in the state capital."

"Only then can there be such a gratifying harvest, which has never been seen in a generation, and which is unimaginable."

"Now, our farmland is not destroyed by locust plagues."

"We have to protect them even more so that they cannot be wasted in the hands of bad people."

"Next year, no matter what, we will continue to plant such seeds..."

After inspecting Jingzhou and Yuezhou for two days.

Li Shimin did not continue to go, but returned directly to Chang'an.

Because at this time, he was already convinced that the locust plague this year was indeed serious.

But at the same time, he was delighted.

These seeds were brought by Li Qiu and Youzhou.

It's really good beyond imagination.

Just grit your teeth and get through this year's disaster.

After next year, most of the farmland in Datang will be planted with these seeds.

All it takes is a good year.

The food of the entire Tang Dynasty can't be eaten for several years.

By that time, the great rule of the world will not be far away.

Before leaving, Li Shimin also specially asked.

Let the samurai Xun and others strictly protect the farmland in the three states.

Don't let people with bad minds artificially damage it.

Once such behavior is discovered, other warriors have the right to kill first and then act later.

No mercy will be given to such hateful people.

……

On the other side, the negotiation between Li Qiu and Yuan Gai Suwen was also going on in secret.

The current Li Qiu is firmly in control of Yuan Gai Suwen's fate.

So much so that during the negotiation process, he did not let go.

Either you promise me this hunk of fat.

Or let's fight and make gestures.

As long as the war drags on for a year or so, the whole Goguryeo may be in civil turmoil.

It will be difficult for Yuan Gai Suwen to control the country.

Of course, from the standpoint of Li Qiu and the Youzhou Army.

It also does not want to fight a protracted war, so as to cause unnecessary loss of troops.

This is also what the Supreme Emperor told him when he came to Goguryeo this time.

This Youzhou army is Li Qiu's biggest reliance and trump card.

Don't cause too many casualties because of this unnecessary war.

In the end, Yuan Gai Suwen still gritted his teeth and made a great determination.

Agree to Li Qiu's unreasonable request.

The two cities of Liaodong City and Anshi City were placed under the ownership of Datang.

Before, King Rongliu asked the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to come to help him, and he promised rich gold, silver and jewelry, as well as gold for Gao Jifu and Li Qiu.

These are still to be given.

The last one is the Sui people who were stranded in Goguryeo by Yuan Gai Su Wenyong.

Come to exchange all the captives and Goguryeo people in Liaodong City and Anshi City.

The conclusion of this negotiation, even Li Qiu felt that he had made a huge profit.

First of all, a huge amount of gold, silver and jewelry was obtained for nothing.

At the same time, those Sui people were finally able to return to their hometown after being away for more than [-] years.

Especially for some elderly people.

Being able to return to their roots after falling leaves can be regarded as fulfilling their wish.

This is also a stroke of Li Qiu, Gao Jifu, especially Li Shimin in the history books.

As far as Datang is concerned, the greatest contribution is to occupy the two new cities of Liaodong and Anshicheng.

Chapter 823 This Heartless Chang'an City

In Luo Kexin's words.

In terms of military strategy, this is Liaodong City and Anshi City.

It is located in the northeast and southeast of Huaiyuan City.

These two cities, like horns, guard the two sides of Huaiyuan City.

Let Huaiyuan City be protected from the attack and impact from Goguryeo.

This is enough to ensure that the entire western Liaoning region is safe and sound.

The entire portal of Liaodong is also firmly in the hands of Datang.

In the future, no matter Goguryeo, Khitan, Mohe and other countries.

All are subject to the control of Datang.

Make them extremely uncomfortable.

Like the gathering and exchange of Sui people in Goguryeo.

It is a very heavy project.

Without two months, it is impossible to see the eyebrows.

Also took advantage of this opportunity.

Luo Kexin led the generals to rearrange the defense of these two new cities.

And the repair of the city.

And Li Qiu, together with the officials here, mobilized people from the west of Liaoning to live in the east of Liao.

Only when the people of Tang Dynasty come, can they be regarded as firmly rooted here.

……

In Chang'an City half a month later.

The good news from western Liaoning is passed on three times a day.

Let the whole Chang'an city boil.

Above the court hall, civil and military officials also congratulated Li Shimin together.

Like Fang Xuanling, Liaodong City and Anshi City are still important.

And emotionally reported to Li Shimin.

It is said that these two cities belong to Datang now.

Then the entire land of Liaodong will be controlled by my Tang Dynasty.

To advance can be attacked, and retreat can be defended.

These cities can also form mutual echoes with Yanyun City and Youzhou City.

In the northeast of my Tang Dynasty, there will be no more wars in the future.

And those civil servants valued the return of the Sui people to their hometowns.

It is said that Emperor Sui Yang of the Sui Dynasty was stupid and innocent.

As a result, tens of thousands of Sui people stayed in foreign lands for more than [-] years.

Seeing the envoys of the Tang Dynasty look at the road and cry.

How miserable.

But now, it's all because of the wiseness of the Holy One and the strength of my Tang Dynasty.

Only then can these Sui people finally be able to return to their hometown.

Such great achievements should be praised by others.

And Wang Gui, at this time, was just right to take credit for Li Qiu and others.

Said that he had asked Zhang Yungu in detail.

This year's Youzhou is another bumper year.

If you add the large amount of gold, silver and jewelry that Li Qiu got from Goguryeo this time.

To survive this year's disaster, as long as the planning is done properly, it will not be a problem at all.

This is also a great joy.

Listening to the praises of the ministers and the constant good news came.

Li Shimin is also a rare Longyan Joy, sweeping away the haze in his heart.

"This time, Li Qiu, King of Peking, and their Youzhou army, should remember the first achievement."

"And what the Ministry of Civil Affairs has done in Jingzhou, Yuezhou, and Fuzhou this year."

"It is also beyond my expectation, and the results are outstanding."

"For the Ministry of Civil Affairs, I will also reward you heavily."

"Before, when I first established the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

"There are quite a few officials admonishing and opposing."

"It is inappropriate to say that the system of three provinces and six ministries has become three provinces and seven ministries."

"I actually think so too."

"Starting today, the Ministry of Industry will be merged into the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the name will still be named after the Ministry of Industry."

"The new minister of the Ministry of Industry, Duan Lun."

"The former minister of the Ministry of Industry, Du Chuke, has become the new minister of the Ministry of Industry."

"The other servant of the Ministry of Industry is Song You."

"As for Ma Zhou, he's on the fourth rank, and he's discussing the doctor."

"At the same time, he also serves as the secretary and censor..."

Ma Zhou's former Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, even after he became a full-time official.

It's just an official rank in the fourth rank.

Now Li Shimin has promoted Ma Zhou.

With his age and qualifications, he can already be regarded as a rising star.

It made the officials in the Tai Chi Hall jealous.

He also kept cursing in his heart.

Afterwards, Li Shimin rewarded everyone in the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

At the same time, Sun Wuji, Chief Sikong, was sent to lead the Ministry of Industry and take charge of this year's disaster relief.

It was also in this process that Xiao Yu, who repeatedly offended the sacred will and acted independently, aroused the anger of all the officials.

Finally, he was accused.
