Han counter current

I also started to send troops to occupy some natural ports in these places, but I don't have enough people now to completely occupy these places, let alone develop these places. "

"Oh? There is such a thing. Is it possible that the general has occupied some undeveloped land? Otherwise, how could it be impossible to develop it? Besides, there is still a shortage of people. Hehe, could it be that there is too much land?"

"Basically, there are local aborigines in Yizhou, as well as some Han people from the Central Plains who migrated there. The territory is large, but the population is small, and most of the land is undeveloped.

If possible, I even want to immigrate 10,000+ people to develop here, so that we have a reliable rear base.

In this way, no matter what happens in the future, I will be able to guard the back road for my adoptive father. Even if I can't win the world, at least I can protect the safety and prosperity of my adoptive father's family. "

"10,000+ people? How big is that place, General Gao, are you right? Can Yizhou accommodate so many people?"

"Absolutely, huh, 10,000+ people is still a small number, even if you give me 40 or 3, I can get them all allocated to their own land, but it's obviously not suitable now, it would be nice to have [-] to [-] people .

There are too many primeval forests and unowned land. Of course, there is also a shortage of cattle and various supplies. Hey, no one is using such a good place. "

"Population, population, no wonder my lord has been emphasizing the importance of population to me. It turns out that my lord doesn't worry about land at all."

Shen Xuan nodded after hearing this, thinking in his heart how to solve this problem.In a daze, he felt that this was his chance.

If he solves the difficult problems that others cannot solve, especially the difficult problems that even such an excellent General Gao cannot solve, his reputation will definitely rise to a higher level.

After arriving in the living room, Gao Zhong and the two could hear Manuel's exclamation from a distance, as if this guy was frightened by someone.

However, in this territory, as Chen Feng's commercial and trade representative, as a barbarian with real power in his hands, how many people can scare him?

"General Lu, I beg you, you have to eat so much ice cream a day, I beg you to save some, you have eaten a whole boatful of rice."

In the hall, Manuel looked anxiously at Lu Lingqi, more precisely at the ice cream in Lu Lingqi's hand.

"Why are you like this? You just chatter when you eat something, just like a woman. How can you be so stingy and still do business? You.

Anyway, there are so many boats, so it doesn't matter if I eat something, since I can't sell it now, and it won't break easily, so it's better to let me eat it. "

As for food, Lu Lingqi will never let it go. When she saw the first ice cream brought by Manuel, she almost had to eat a little every day.

The climate in Zhuya is hot, and there is nothing better than ice cream to cool off the heat.In the hot summer, when you are sweating, it is so wonderful to eat such a cool and delicious food.

Besides, this Lu Lingqi's body really has nothing to say, since she has inherited Lu Bu's excellent genes, it is really easy to eat some ice cream every day.

"Hahaha, Manuel, my lord has an order to bring a shipment of ice cream to the two generals. Why, are you hiding it on purpose?"

Shen Xuan couldn't help teasing, at the same time, he also wanted to make a good impression in front of everyone.

"Besides, this ice cream is really expensive in the eyes of outsiders, but you don't know how much you have hoarded in Youzhou. It seems that you are pretending to be stupid on purpose.

I see, you should stop complaining here, and think of a way to quickly replace the commodities with rice and sugar. "

"Okay, you, so you are such a bad guy."

When Lu Lingqi heard that she had a boatload of ice cream, she began to eat even more. At the same time, she did not forget to criticize Manuel, as if the other party was a complete villain.

"Did you steal my boat of ice cream? Tell me quickly, where is my boat of ice cream? Hand it over quickly. Otherwise, I'll crush you to death today."

Lu Lingqi's eyes and movements seemed like she was really trying to crush her to death.Manuel was already tall and tall. Although he usually looked wretched, he was not to the point where he could be crushed to death by a woman.

"I thought the shipment of ice cream that the master mentioned was mainly for General Gao, and General Gao didn't seem to like this kind of thing, so I didn't say anything."

"Nonsense, whoever says he doesn't like it, he will definitely like what I like. Besides, his stuff is mine, it's mine, give it to me quickly, and you have to give me back that boat of ice cream."

"Lingqi, stop making trouble. Mr. Shen just got off the boat. He is here to help me solve some current problems. Since Manuel is here, let's discuss it together."

Gao Zhong stopped the two, and then invited them to sit down and discuss the issue.Right now, these are the only people who can sit together to discuss problems and find solutions.

Chapter 254 Extended Target 2

Looking at the expressions of the other people, Gao Zhong knew that he should clarify the problem first.After all, here, he is the chief general, the one who can give orders the most.

"The problem we are facing now is very serious. A large number of goods are hoarded in Zhuya. Although some Hu merchants can help us digest it, it is far from enough.

I need a solution once and for all, it is best to completely open up the market, so that we can ship more commodities from Youzhou, and then replace them with the rice, sugar and other materials we urgently need. "

"Yes, yes, General Gao, with so many goods hoarded here, we can only send a small fleet to Funan to do business. If this continues, we don't know when we will be able to meet the master's requirements."

"Mr. Shen, please sit down."

Gao Zhong nodded. He also knew that it was very difficult now, but there were too many problems before him, and it was difficult for him to find the best solution.

"There is no way, it depends on whether the general dares to do it."

Shen Xuan narrowed his eyes, and then looked at the crowd. His eyes seemed to be looking for some people who dared to do great things and were not afraid of heat and trouble.

"I don't know, how many people can General Gao mobilize now? I mean, the kind that can go to the battlefield to kill people, the ordinary pirates are fine."

"Hehe, you want me to grab it?"

If Gao Zhong is not courageous, it is definitely a joke. He is only very old, but all the things he has done in these years are earth-shattering. After a pause, Gao Zhong spoke again.

"It seems that there is no way to rob more effectively. I now have 6000 direct subordinates, more than 5000 are navy officers and soldiers, and another [-] are my personal guards and soldiers who are trapped in the camp.

There are currently more than 1 pirates who have been surrendered by me, and their combat effectiveness varies. They can still show off their might on the sea, but their combat effectiveness will drop a lot when they go ashore.

It's not that I haven't thought about using force to solve the problem, but the fighting power of the pirates under me is really not very good now.

Moreover, we have been able to become kings at sea, and many small groups of pirates come to join us every day.

However, if we want to go ashore to attack the city, we don't have the strength now, even if we manage to take it down, we may not be able to defend it. Sun Quan in Jiangdong will not make it easier for me. "

"I don't know how many soldiers and horses can be commanded by the general's ability. Now, if the general is going to attack the city, how many soldiers and horses will he need at least?"

Shen Xuan also knows a little about military affairs, but he still needs a deeper understanding of the combat effectiveness of the army, especially, he knows nothing about Gao Zhong's army.

"If it is to attack the cities along the east coast of Jiangdong, I need at least [-] infantry, and recruits are fine, but I need to train for more than three months. Only in this way can I guarantee that I can hold the city after I take it down."

"No, we won't fight Jiangdong."

Shen Xuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Why do we want to fight Jiangdong? We can't help us do business if we defeat Jiangdong. Just now the general said that he wanted to go to Funan to grab a piece of land, so we will go to Funan to grab a piece of land, we are afraid of him.

In terms of the general's current military strength and warships, it is enough to gain a foothold in Funan. Maybe the general doesn't know that there are many kingdoms in Funan, but most of them are not much different from a county town in the Central Plains. .

A so-called king may have five or six hundred soldiers under his command, and anyone with thousands of soldiers under his command is a great force.

The general now has a total of about 2 soldiers and horses, which is enough to cross Funan, but the general also said that because most of the soldiers and horses under your hands are navy and pirates.

So even if we grab the territory, it will be difficult to hold on, and we still cannot give up our naval advantage. "

"Is this the case in Funan? Why didn't you tell me clearly, Manuel, haven't you been to Funan? Why didn't you specify the actual situation in Funan?"

"My lord, I thought you knew that."
