The Great Explosion of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 344

"This Yuan Shao, could it be that he is already desperate?" Shi Hui muttered as the news reached Chudi, looking at the information in his hand.

Although it is also according to the inherent degree, there is no problem in taking the route of abdication.However, just occupying Jizhou and Youzhou in Hebei, and controlling Bingzhou in name, is actually enough to proclaim the emperor. Yuan Shao's heart is a bit big.

"Indeed, it's very irrational to call yourself emperor!" Jia Xu replied, "According to accurate information, Hebei has not yet come out of the shadow of the war, and it will take a year or two for all regions to recover. Yuan Shaokong has 20 warlords Soldiers, but there is no food to feed 20 soldiers, proclaiming emperor at this time is completely courting death."

"The Guanzhong imperial court will not spare him. New and old accounts will be settled together. Autumn will be the day of Yuan Shao's defeat. My lord, shall we take advantage of this opportunity?" Liu Bowen asked.Recently, he has gradually replaced Fang Xuanling in politics or military affairs.

"Xuzhou can be fought, and the focus of food is there! After all, Nanzhong needs to be developed, and we have to digest the new site!" Shi Hui checked the map, and finally dismissed this tempting proposal.

Indeed, why didn't he take the opportunity to completely defeat the Central Plains?After all, the logistics can't keep up!There is a shortage of people, but there is a shortage of food and officials. It is not interesting to just manage a small city with a population of only 3000 to [-]!
"The weather in the south this year is pretty good!" Fang Xuanling came out rarely to show off his presence. "This year's harvest should be good. Even if unexpected factors are deducted, it doesn't matter if Runan County and Yingchuan are included in the calculation."

"If we take Yingchuan down, the imperial court will have trouble sleeping and eating. It's not good if they can't attack Yuan Shao with all their strength. Forget about Yingchuan, and focus on Runan County!" Shi Hui said after glancing at the map.

After a pause, I got up and paced back and forth a few times, "The legion should also be reorganized, and those who have made merits should also be promoted! There are a lot of things this year, everyone is okay?"

"The ministers are willing to share the Lord's worries!" Everyone responded one after another, and basically no one would say that there was a problem.

"Work overtime, everyone work harder!" Shi Hui had a headache, even if he was only in charge of the overall situation, he probably wouldn't be able to relax on these things this year.

He also has a lot of things to do this year, such as Shihao and Shirui's anniversary celebrations, concubine Liu Rushi and so on.It is only said that Shangguan Wan'er, Zou Shi and Song Yao (Xiaoyao) are also due to give birth. At this time, pregnant women often suffer from prenatal depression and anxiety, and need their husbands to accompany them.

"By the way!" Shi Hui suddenly remembered, "Although Yuan Shao is short of food, he should not be short of money. For the same reason, the Guanzhong court is probably similar!"

"Are we going to sell them food?" Fang Xuanling was surprised when he heard this.If it sells grain externally, then there will be insufficient grain for internal development, which is not a good thing.

"They're definitely going to fight, aren't they?" Shi Hui smiled, "Why don't we add fire and send someone over to ask the two families if they lack weapons and horses. Let's not say anything else, weapons and horses We have no shortage! Isn’t the establishment of a bank recently discussed? At that time, a large amount of gold will be needed as a reserve, so we can consider taking the opportunity to accumulate a batch!”

"During this period of time, the two sides have used troops one after another, and I'm afraid they don't have much gold reserves!" Liu Bowen thought for a while.

"There is no gold, you can use special products and population to exchange! Qiang people, Xiongnu people, Xianbei people, Wuhuan people..." Shi Hui didn't even think about it, "We are actually short of labor, aren't we?"

Anyway, we have to advance northward in the future, and no matter if it is the Huns or Xianbei, Wuhuan or Qiang people, we will encounter these.Instead of continuing the civil war so that they can recuperate, it is better to take the opportunity to encourage both sides to plunder the population, and it should be weakened in advance!
The key is that railways have to be built one after another, and mines have to be excavated deep after the surface has been dug, all of which require labor.A lot of them were caught before, and they were successfully sinicized one after another. If this is the case, we must fulfill the agreement and grant them household registration.Let them lay the railway and go to the mine, and they will have to form a salary, which is obviously not cost-effective.

"We can only accept a maximum of 20 people! If there are too many people, it will affect other goals for this year!" Fang Xuanling replied.

"Whether they can plunder 20 people is up for debate! In fact, we mainly provide them with an idea. With luck, maybe our Chinese nation will stand on top of this world!" Shi Hui laughed.

"My lord!" Liu Bowen stood up and remonstrated, "In fact, there were a small number of slaves bought from Hu people before, but most of them were wild and unruly, and the main reason is that we don't have much food here, so we didn't 'purchase' in large quantities."

"It's just that the whip and sweet dates are not well controlled!" Shi Hui shook his head, "Also, the pond consciousness is too strong. I always think that the sky is big and the earth is big, and it is only a small pond like China. I worry that there will be too many foreign races and I will compete for food. In fact, the real world is so big, and what we live in is just a small place in it!

We will occupy more places in the future, but judging from the current population reproduction rate, even if we occupy, we have no way to completely transform this place into 'our' land.Otherwise, I would not have leaked information about India to the imperial court and asked them to help us take the lead. "

Liu Bowen and Fang Xuanling, as well as Cheng Yu and Jia Xu on the side, were a little embarrassed when they heard the words.Everyone used to be a Han supremacist, and if possible, they didn't want this kind of alien blood to blend in.What Shi Hui is advocating now is the Great China Doctrine. This is a doctrinal doctrine that conflicts with the mainstream thought to a certain extent. It is not surprising that everyone can't adapt to it for a while.

Naturally, everyone would think of Shi Hui's living environment. He was originally from Jiaozhou, an area where Han and barbarians lived together.Perhaps it was this kind of environment that gave him this idea of ​​'Great China Doctrine'.They didn't know that Shi Hui was a time traveler, and he came from a country with 55 ethnic minorities. Of course, this country doesn't mind the appearance of six more ethnic minorities, or even more...

A few days later, the envoy came to Hebei, and of course the same envoy also came to Guanzhong.They did not come here on behalf of Chu Gongshihui, but came here on behalf of the caravan, hoping to do business with the Guanzhong court and the Great Jin Dynasty.

"Using population to exchange supplies? Shi Hui is really willing to do it?!" Liu Xie couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, he really had his style.

"If you exchange population, what can you exchange?!" Compared with Yuan Shao, what can he get.

The envoys were all experienced negotiators, and they replied: "Excellent weapons and armor, excellent horses! Even various local products! Of course, food is not included!"

"The problem is that what we lack the most is food!" the two 'emperors' replied directly.

"There are a lot of cattle, sheep and horses in the grassland, and these are food!" The two envoys sent in the past directly pointed out a direction for them, "It's closer to get food from there, isn't it?"

"So!" The two 'emperors' replied with almost the same content, "How many people do you need?"

"One hundred thousand!" The two messengers replied, each faction only has a quota of 10 people, "Only young ones!"

"That's good!" The two 'emperors' weighed in, and they had no reason to reject the deal.
