Speaking of what Zhu Houzhao was interested in, Zhu Houzhao became active again, and hurriedly ordered someone to take the map, unfold it, and his four eyes were fascinated in this map.
Zhu Houzhao said: "Datong is the best, I feel that Datong is located in an important place, not to mention, I have been there, it is very interesting, I miss many people there." ” Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Look, Datong is not good, although it is an important town facing the desert, it seems that something is missing." ” Ye Chunqiu said: "If Your Majesty wants to find a place and happens to want to deal with the Tatars, Datong is facing the hinterland of the desert, but it is very inappropriate.
The Tatars rode fast horses, came and went without a trace, behind them was a thousand miles of wilderness, once lost, they could immediately return, according to the ministers, if they really want to find a place, it should be Shanhaiguan. ” "Shanhaiguan" Zhu Houzhao read in his mouth, and his eyes immediately looked in the direction of Shanhaiguan.
Shanhaiguan is the gateway of Jingshi, and it is not far from Jingshi, and it will arrive in a day or two.
This Shanhaiguan is the main road in and out of Liaodong, and the Ming Dynasty has arranged many military towns on this line, and it is indeed the most important official defense place of the Ming Dynasty.
Ye Chunqiu looked at Zhu Houzhao thoughtfully, and said: "Shanhaiguan is surrounded by the sea on one side, and the Jingshi is behind it, and the towns of Liaodong are some north of it. ” Zhu Houzhao thought about it, but he held his chin and shook his head and said: "It's because this place is too important, but it's not beautiful, the Tatars know that this is a difficult bone to gnaw, so they refuse to come, but Datong is different." ” Ye Chunqiu pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "This is not necessarily, there are many ways to attract Tatars, they just want to plunder, the reason why Shanhaiguan is not as good as Datong is because Datong is not only a military town, but also has countless fertile fields, the barns are full of grain and grass, and there are many merchants who stay here; But Shanhaiguan is different, Shanhaiguan is just a pass, and it is a Xiongguan, it is difficult to break, but if Shanhaiguan also has countless money and grain."
Zhu Houzhao blinked, he really felt that what Ye Chunqiu said was indeed quite reasonable, but the next moment, he frowned and said, "But do you want to pile up a fortune to lure them?"
Ye Chunqiu and Zhu Houzhao have experienced this kind of thing on paper, Ye Chunqiu and Zhu Houzhao have experienced it many times, Ye Chunqiu said firmly: "In fact, to sweep the desert, Shanhaiguan is the key, it is connected to the Beijing Division in the south, connected to the Grand Canal, connected to Liaodong in the north, and backed by the sea. ” "What" Zhu Houzhao looked up at Ye Chunqiu.
Ye Chunqiu smiled at Zhu Houzhao and said, "Now the price of our Ming horses is already high, it is an old horse, and now it can't be stopped without seven or eight taels of silver." ” "Hmm" Zhu Houzhao squinted, as if he remembered some of the words that Ye Chunqiu had said before.
Ye Chunqiu continued: "Now that horse-drawn carriages are popular, everyone refuses to hire sedan chairs, horsepower replaces manpower, not to mention that the carriages produced by the Zhenguo Government now require a large number of furs to lay carriages, resulting in a shortage of fur, and the most important thing is that near Gyeonggi, because many tenants refuse to rent land, they have run to the Zhenguo Mansion to beg for a living, which makes the gentry in the countryside have to prepare more cattle and horses to cultivate the land, otherwise this good field, tenants are insufficient, how to cultivate so the price of cattle and horses, has been rising.
His Royal Highness doesn't actually have to go to Shanhaiguan with his wealth, he only needs a decree to allow people to go there to herd horses. ” "If they are to attack the Tatars, they will be killed."
Hou Zhao felt that Ye Chunqiu's proposal was a bit unbelievable.
"Why don't you want to" Ye Chunqiu said: "Your Majesty is rich all over the world, and he may not know much about his own people. ” Zhu Houzhao was speechless and said, "Then you can talk about it." ” Ye Chunqiu said very seriously: "The people are not afraid of death, they are only afraid of poverty. ” Zhu Houzhao couldn't come back for a long time.
Ye Chunqiu continued: "Now the cattle and horses are high, if the cattle and horses can give birth to huge profits, in this pass, there are poor people who have no tiles and no cones, they are already worse than dead, three meals are not continued, if they are given a chance to get rich, for them, what is the matter of raising livestock Once there is a pasture near Shanhaiguan, a large number of merchants will gather to buy furs and cattle and horses, and once there are merchants, there will be buddies, there will be brokers, Your Majesty, in this way, The problem of scarcity of cattle and horses in the customs can be solved, and at the same time it gives some people an extra livelihood, but the most important thing is that there, it can become the target of the Tatars, if the Tatars really dare to come, Your Majesty can be here, give them a head-on blow, as long as the Tatars are weak, it will inevitably make the desert safer, and more people will be willing to come to this desert to graze, and even open up pastures, our Ming people have one more here, the Tatars will have one less, and Your Majesty's people will occupy one more pasture, Their cattle and horses will be less than a herd, if Your Majesty divides and encroaches again, and at the same time uses Han to control Hu, and then uses Hu to control Hu, you can solve the border troubles in the north once and for all. ” "Uh, yes" Zhu Houzhao licked his lips, feeling that Ye Chunqiu's words were a bit fanciful, what grazing, what animal husbandry needs, are these really so terrible, and the people are not afraid of death, how can they not even be afraid of death Zhu Houzhao stared hard at Shanhaiguan, frowned and said, "You mean, I should go to Shanhaiguan" Ye Chunqiu laughed, it's just to tease you, these are just theoretical discussions, and I really want to make a real joke Seeing Ye Chunqiu showing such a smile, Zhu Houzhao immediately looked a little annoyed: "You are so timid, I am not afraid, what are you afraid of?"
Ye Chunqiu said disagreeingly: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, even if you really want to implement such a plan, it is enough to appoint a messenger, why should Your Majesty personally go to the son of a thousand daughters to sit in the hall, this sentence, Your Majesty may have heard the ear out of the cocoon, but it is still very reasonable." ” Zhu Houzhao, who has always longed to be a real hero of the world, was immediately stimulated when he heard Ye Chunqiu's words, and said angrily: "Whoever said that Emperor Wen set the capital of Jingshi, there is the meaning of the Son of Heaven guarding the country, of course, the Son of Heaven must be in the place where he wants to rush, and after the pass, what kind of Son of Heaven is it." ” aa2705221:
