Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Zheng Sen, who was sitting aside, couldn't help but feel something in his heart when he heard the emperor chatting with the king of Tang Dynasty...

Could it be that—my carelessness made His Majesty unhappy?

Otherwise, I wouldn't have let myself dry for so long...

Who knows, at this moment, the emperor burst out laughing:

"With millions of migrant workers, there is a lot of food waste every day. I even provide meat every day, and all the bones I get are allocated to Grandfather Wang."

After laughing for a while, Zhu Youjian lamented:

"It's a pity that the country is currently in turmoil, so I have no time to send ships to dig out guano overseas.

If there are ships to do this, our grain production next year will definitely increase several times! "

In the era before chemical fertilizers, the yield per mu of dry land in a single season was only about a hundred pounds.

If the land is sloping, once there is a drought, there will be no harvest!

Because the land is not fertile enough, it needs to be cultivated in rotation.

Especially in Henan, Shanxi, Shandong and Hebei.

Although these water-scarce areas have shouldered the glory of China for thousands of years, they have already exhausted everything they have.

It would be a blessing for the country to get the fertilizer out as soon as possible!

With chemical fertilizers, this land, which has shed all its blood for China, can feel more relaxed.

There is nothing we can do to dig up bird droppings for the time being.

Before farmyard manure was sufficient to fertilize all land, bone meal was the best source of fertilizer.

Crush the bones, preferably into powder, mix with 5-10 times the amount of soil (the principle is to use microorganisms to break down the bone meal), seal it and bury it underground for fermentation.

After one month in summer and two or three months in winter, chemical fertilizers are applied.

This method contributed a lot to the country during the great construction years of later generations. Even until the early 90s, there were still such indigenous fertilizer factories!

……

"In addition to the bones provided by His Majesty, I also sent people around to buy the remaining bones. However, after all, the quantity was too small."

Zhu Yujian lamented.

The country is at this point, even if it means destroying the family and rescuing people from difficulties, we must also solve the problems for His Majesty!

He took out his own money and sent people everywhere to buy it.

However, little was gained...

……

Zheng Sen rolled his eyes.

I just made His Majesty unhappy, isn't this the time to show your presence!

There is always a sense of presence that needs to be regained.

He quickly raised his head:

"Your Majesty, let me go, I promise to dig up mountains of dung for Your Majesty!"

Zhu Youjian looked at Zheng Sen, laughed and cursed:

"You kid, you know that I need you, why do you want to be in the limelight?"

After being scolded by the emperor, Zheng Sen was not worried but happy. He smiled naively and scratched his ears, then stood aside and giggled.

Zhu Youjian laughed and scolded him again:

"What are you doing with these dog bones? They have polluted my Golden Palace."

Zhu Youjian pointed at Zhu Yujian and said:

"Kill these dog bones and Ma Shaoyu together, and use the bones to be fattened!"

"Having eaten the fat of the people and endangering the country, it's better for thieves like this to break their bones and spread their ashes."

Zhu Youjian's words set the tone for this group of big traitors to be completely wiped out.

If he had heard the emperor's words before, Zhu Yujian would definitely wash the emperor's face with saliva.

He is too cruel and has no appearance of a benevolent and righteous king...

However, after the "land inventory and nationalization" campaign, Zhu Yujian, who was used to seeing the suffering of the people at the bottom, understood.

even……

Emperor Longwu, who was known for his "benevolence and righteousness", was still a little dissatisfied——

Your Majesty's punishment is too light...

……

On the other side, Zheng Sen, who was still wondering whether the emperor would blame himself for killing the envoy in private, saw that he was scolded twice by the emperor, but his eyebrows arched.

He chuckled, scratched his face, and moved his lips, looking eager to try.

Zhu Youjian pointed at Zheng Sen:

"You guy, can I eat you?

If you have something to say, say it! "

Zheng Sen hurriedly bent down, stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, since the bones can be used as fertilizer, why don't you ask Li Zicheng for the bones?"

"I heard that the Tatars had a bloody encounter outside Jingxing Pass. Dorgon sent five false kings one after another, but Liu Fangliang was unable to do anything about them!"

"Forcing Dorgon to go into battle in person and lead the army to attack Jingxing Pass."

"However, with your Majesty's help, Li Zicheng's side is extremely tight. The bones of the Tatars are scattered everywhere."

"If Your Majesty is coming, he should be able to produce more fertilizer..."

It is no secret that the emperor funded Li Zicheng.

Zhu Yujian answered:

"I have heard a little bit about this. I heard that under Liu Fangliang's defense, Dorgon not only failed to reap the benefits, but also lost thousands of real Tatars.

It is said that at Jingxingguan, more than a dozen Tatars Beile and Beizi were killed on the spot! "

"If their bones were taken, the output of the fertilizer plant would really be much greater!"

Zhu Yujian chuckled, lowered his head to search in the drawer, and handed the two of them a detailed battle report.

"This is from Jiang Xiang.

The Tatars could not forcefully attack Jingxing Pass, so they also launched a forceful attack on several other passes. "

Taihang Mountain is a north-south mountain range that separates Shanshan and Hebei.

Because the Taihang Mountains are a long and narrow Hengduan Mountain area, almost all of them on this side of Hebei are cliffs.

There are eight rivers originating from the Taihang Mountains and flowing into the Hebei Plain.

Under the erosion of these rivers for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, eight twists and turns appeared in the cliffs.

This is Taihang Baxing.

These passages are important transportation routes connecting the land of Hebei and the Shanshan-Shaanxi Basin.

Every passage is an important traffic thoroughfare and a prestigious dangerous pass!

Except for a few passages in Henan, the other passages were all in Hebei Province in later generations, which was Beizhili at this time.

These passes are all in Li Zicheng's hands.

Dorgon couldn't attack by force, so he had to take a sideways approach and let people attack the remaining passages separately, hoping to take Shanxi by surprise.

Who knows, with Zhu Youjian's interference, Jiang Xiang, who was the biggest factor in Li Zicheng's fall in history, once again raised the banner of the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, with the second lubricant of Liu Fangliang and Yuan Zong, the relationship between Jiang Xiangbu and Li Zicheng did not become tense.

If Jiang Xiang doesn't rebel, the biggest rebel force in Li Zicheng's belly will be gone.

What's more, Yuan Zongdi had already been released by Zhu Youjian. Under Zhu Youjian's guidance, he had fought against the Shanshan and Shaanxi landlords long before they rebelled.

The internal environment is stable, and Li Zicheng in this life is no longer as embarrassed as in history.

The rear was stable, and Li Zicheng brought out all the combat power of the Dashun Army.

Dorgon could not forcefully attack Jingxing Pass, so he had to pretend to attack Jingxing Pass...

His idea was to build the plank road openly and build the warehouse secretly.
