In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of spring, but the weather was still snowy at the beginning of spring, not at all like the ice and snow were about to melt and usher in the recovery of all things.
"Our spies in Shiqi returned that Heshuo suffered a white disaster that was rare in a century, and the white disaster in the further north area was even more serious."
Xu is a lieutenant, and he needs to understand the military trends in the country, so he immediately reported to Liu Yan when he felt urgent: "There are rumors that tribes in Xigaoche have begun to move south. ” Whether it is Xigaoche or Donggaoche, in fact, it is a tribal alliance of Ding Ling people, they replaced the former Xiongnu and Xianbei to become the overlord of Mobei, the west is close to Central Asia, and the east is directly to the Daxinganling area.
Gaoche, the newly born overlord of the grassland, they must have more water than the Xiongnu and Xianbei, at least with their strength, if they are against the complete Central Plains Dynasty, they will definitely be pressed to the ground and rubbed.
To put it simply, after Rouran rose up, he destroyed the east and west high chariots and launched a war against the Northern Wei Dynasty with a unified attitude, but the Northern Wei Dynasty could block Rouran while dealing with the Southern Qi, and if it was changed to the Xiongnu or Xianbei, the Northern Wei Dynasty would have to stop cooking.
"Concubine De exchanged letters with her mother's family, and Daiguo also encountered the southward migration of northern nomads."
Of course, the concubine that Liu Yan said is Tuoba Xiu.
He said to Xu Zheng: "It seems that the white disaster in Mobei is a full-scale outbreak. ” The Xiaoice period had a very strong impact on North and East Asia, and whoever made the North Pole was in the periphery.
Each outbreak of the Xiaoice River period was a serious challenge to the Central Plains Dynasty, not only the northern nomads would be forced to move south, but also the Central Plains and the south of the Yangtze River would also frequent droughts.
Some historians say that every fall of the Central Plains Dynasty is related to the emergence of the Xiaoice River period, and if you look over the history books, you will get a really related confirmation.
That is, the outbreak of the Central Plains Dynasty that perishes in the Xiaoice River period every time is pure nonsense, and it is not that the Central Plains Dynasty itself has problems, and some dynasties that have no problems themselves have defended and pushed back.
"Wangshang" Xu Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "It is possible to cultivate life and recuperate" The nomads of Mobei are moving southward, and the first to be impacted are the Shiqi Zhao Kingdom, the Tuoba Dynasty Kingdom, and the Murong Yan Kingdom.
If these countries were invaded by the nomads of Mobei and there was no turmoil in the country, they would definitely have to draw troops to deal with it, wouldn't it be an opportunity for the Han State "Hmm" Liu Yan knew what Xu Zheng wanted to say, and said: "Always pay attention to the migration of the Mobei nomads, and the impact on various countries. ” If the nomads from Mobei continue to invade the Zhao Kingdom, the Tuoba Dynasty Kingdom, and the Murong Yan Kingdom, the Han Kingdom will definitely not sit idly by and miss the opportunity, and when the time comes, it may interrupt the national policy of cultivating and recuperating and seizing the opportunity to march north.
In the winter of this year, the Han State made the necessary adjustments to the army, disbanding the Northern Expeditionary Corps and the Southern Expeditionary Corps, and planning with generals at the level of "Zheng".
The general of the expedition to the north set up a shogunate to deal with the war in the north, and the shogunate of the expedition to the north was led by Li Tan as the main general, under the jurisdiction of six armies, and the main object of the conquest was the state of Zhao in Shijiao.
The general of Zhengdong was led by Lu Tai as the main general, with three armies under his command, and a total of 300,000 servant armies such as Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla and the Wa Islands, and the direction of Jizhou and Liaodong to conquer Murong Yan.
General Zhengnan is the main general of Huan Wen, with three armies under his command, and they are still in the south to suppress the family that is resisting, and they have killed in the hinterland of Jiangzhou and marched into Lingnan.
The current general of the Han State is in a vacant state, and Xie An, the general of the Zhengxi Zhonglang, led his troops into Guanzhong, and has the strength of an army stationed in Longcheng.
The total strength of the forces in several directions is thirteen armies, and each army has a minimum of 15,000 troops, so it is 200,000 troops.
They are the standing army that Liu Yan retained in his plan.
In addition to the 200,000 standing army, the rest of the soldiers were either transferred to the local area to become county soldiers, or retired and returned to their hometowns, that is, the Han State directly cut 400,000 from the field corps of more than 600,000.
If we add the county and county soldiers in various places, the total number of standing army and county soldiers should be about 350,000, and the 150,000 county and county soldiers are equivalent to the reserve supplement of the field corps.
The lack of a source of soldiers for the field corps is to draw blood from soldiers from counties and counties in various places, not to carry out a new round of civilian conscription.
This time the disarmament was not as smooth as the last time, the Han State valued military merits, but anyone who had a little courage wanted to join the army to obtain military merits, although the troops included in the disarmament target did not mutiny, but there were not many complaints.
The Taiwei Department has repeatedly sought out Liu Yan for complaints about disarmament, hoping to slow down the disarmament action, but the military has encountered resistance from civilian officials, and Liu Yan's arbitration is to choose to stand on the side of civilian officials.
"Information delay is a big problem" Liu Yan was a little bored, and said: "If you want to use troops against the north, Su Xiao thinks how many troops need to be used" "It is only the six armies of the Northern Shogunate, and it is definitely not enough for Shang Shiji."
Xu Zheng obviously has researched: "The Eastern Shogunate has a total strength of nearly 300,000 troops, but the combat strength of those servant troops is more worrying. ” Shi Hu fled to Bingzhou and Shuozhou with millions of people, and the losses of the Qiang people in the war in the Central Plains were there, but the biggest losses in the Central Plains War were the Qiang and Di people, and the losses of the Qiang people in the Central Plains War can only be said to be slight.
According to estimates, the total population of Shiqian Zhao, which also owns Bingzhou and Shuozhou, should be about 3 million, and the Qiang nationality will not be less than 400,000, and the rest are the Qiang, Di, Zahu and the captive Han and Miao descendants.
It is estimated that there are still about three million in Shiqi Zhaoguo, mainly because Fu Hong gave up Longxi later, and took the troops of Longxi and Beidi to Shihu again.
There is news that can corroborate that Fu Hong was at least a Shihu with six or seven hundred thousand people.
Murong Yan carried out population registration in 442 AD, and the population count at that time was more than 1.8 million, considering that Murong Yan had been fighting in recent years, destroying small countries such as Buyeo, Quwo, and Shenguo, and wantonly invading the hinterland of Goguryeo, the population should have increased, and the total population should be close to 2.5 million "The widow will send the Praetorian Guard to the north, and at that time, the Praetorian Guard will be the main force to conquer the northern shogunate and cooperate with the Praetorian Guard to conquer Stone."
Liu Yan still has 34,000 Praetorian Guards on hand, and the number is not the key, the key is that it can be replenished at any time.
He said: "What needs to be worried is whether the country's grain can be sustained. ” The Han Kingdom rose in a wasted land, the production system was destroyed in the ravages of the Hu people, and it was not so simple to restart production, and the water conservancy system must be repaired and added, and the answer given by the Prime Minister's Mansion for the water conservancy system alone would take at least seven or eight years to build properly.
Before the resumption of civilian production, most areas needed the state to mobilize grain to supply, and now in addition to the requisitioned manpower in construction, the majority of the people are now hired to give the majority of the people a mouthful of food.
"The barbarian land of the Southwest Peninsula," Xu Zheng said viciously, "is a place with a lot of food" Liu Yan thought of this, the country is short of food and desperately needs food, it is imperative to start an invasion of the Southwest Peninsula, it is time to urge the Yu clan, if the Yu clan is still procrastinating, then the national strength will be the first to pounce.
"The melting of the snow and ice is much delayed than in previous years, and the astrological officer's calculation will be delayed by at least a month.
They told the widow that there might be a drought this year.
Liu Yan has some impressions of the drought in Wuhu Chaohua, the biggest drought is after the demise of Ran Wei, that is, four or five years later, and the current stage is a small drought.
He said: "The invasion of the southwest peninsula should begin as soon as possible, and we will be able to grab a large amount of grain within four months. ” Xu Zheng nodded viciously, that's what he meant.
That is to say, Liu Yan has a golden finger, and if you invade a certain place, you can directly store the items that the system can accept, and you can take them out in other places, saving long-distance transportation.
The trouble is that Liu Yan has to pay attention to it all the time, and only when he orders it can this kind of operation be carried out, and it cannot be transferred to others to operate it on his behalf.
"In this way" Xu Zheng had finished speaking, and he was eager to find Yu Yi in his heart, and stood up and saluted: "The minister will go to Tingwei now." ” After Liu Yan waited for Xu Zheng to leave, he immediately sent someone to ask Prime Minister Ji Chang to come over.
The national policy that the state expects to implement may change, although it is a high-level mistake, but the situation needs to be changed, and there is really nothing that cannot be changed.
Xu Zheng went out of the palace city and went directly to the Imperial Governor's Office, and went straight to find Yu Yi when he got to the ground.
The Imperial Governor's Office did not have its own dedicated office location, and it set aside a building on the outskirts of the huge Miyagi City for temporary office.

Not only is this the case with the Imperial Governor's Office, but also from the departments of the central Han State, who asked Liu Yan to choose the future capital in Chang'an, and Xiangguo is only the temporary capital.
"Tai Lieutenant" Yu Yi had been informed in advance and knew that Xu Zheng was coming.
He put down the document in his hand, stood up to greet him, and asked in surprise, "What's the urgency?"
Xu Zheng looked really in a hurry, and after returning the salute, he said, "I came here for the Yu clan's invasion of Linyi Kingdom." ” Yu Yi didn't know about the white disaster in Mobei, and he didn't know that there would be a change in the national policy of the Han Kingdom's cultivation and recuperation.
When he heard that it was for the Yu family, he was stunned and said: "The king encourages all families to open up to the southwest, and it is not good for the Yu family to go alone, and there are many families who want to unite, and they are already preparing for invasion." ” If he was from a pure family, Xu Zheng would know that there are some things that he can't ask directly, especially those related to the core interests of the family.
Xu is from a small local family, and he has been used to going straight for a long time, so he didn't pay too much attention to Yu Yi's face, and said directly: "Things have changed, if the Yu family moves too slowly, the Taiwei Department will directly send troops to go first." ” "This" Yu Yi was not familiar with Xu Zheng, and while feeling embarrassed, he guessed what was wrong and asked, "Taiwei said slowly" Xu Zheng thought about it for a while, the seriousness of the Mobei White Disaster is not a confidential matter, and it will soon become a fact that the national policy of cultivating life and recuperation will be interrupted before it is really implemented, so he revealed some of the things he talked about with Liu Yan just now.
"The Han Dynasty is short of food, so short" Yu Yi had the impression that the Han Kingdom was a country that had never been short of food, and he said in a daze: "The news of the lack of food must be strictly sealed, and it must not be leaked." ” At present, there are still several hostile countries in the Han Kingdom, which have expanded too rapidly in just a few years, and the places are actually not so stable, and then it is not long before the recovery of the south of the Yangtze River.
Liu Yan and Xu Zheng were not confused, how could they make the news of the country's food shortage become known to everyone.
"The grain in the treasury can still support 200,000 troops for half a year."
Xu Zheng said solemnly: "The so-called shortage of grain is that too many people need the government to provide grain. ” Yu Yi didn't bother with this problem at all, but said: "In order to reduce the transportation consumption along the way, you can stay in the local area."
The food of the center is fully supplied to the military" The decades of wreaking havoc in the Central Plains created two extremes, countless people starved to death, but there were also many moldy grains in the cellars at home.
The families south of the Yangtze River, they have never had the experience of lack of food, and even the people rarely have a shortage of food, and the Han army swept through every family eliminated in the south, and they were really able to search for a large amount of wealth and grain.
Only a few high-ranking officials knew about the "special method" of transporting grain from the Han Kingdom, and Yu Yi, who had just become a court lieutenant, did not know the secret, and he gave quite a lot of advice.
"How many ships can be dispatched by the Yu clan now" Xu Zheng didn't wait for Yu Yi to give an answer, so he said: "There will be a fleet from Qingzhou within a month and sail directly to the 1 sea of Hainan Province, and the Yu clan will keep up as many as possible." ” Yu Yi could say more than nod Xu Zheng is giving Yu Yi face, or is it on the premise that Yu Yi gives quite a lot of opinions on the lack of grain.
On the other side, Liu Yan personally introduced the situation in the north to Ji Chang, and then talked about the discussion with Xu Zheng, and finally said: "This is a mistake of the widow, we should first explore the situation in Mobei, and then formulate a national policy." ” The transfer of the Han Kingdom to recuperation was beneficial to the civilian system, indicating that the military system would enter a period of precipitation.
The Prime Minister's Office is the center of the civil service system, and once the country is fully committed to the development of civil affairs, the functions and powers of the Prime Minister's Office will of course be important.
"Your Majesty, it's normal for news from thousands of miles away to be delayed."
Ji Chang is not a power maniac, on the contrary, he is the prime minister who will unconditionally support Liu Yan in whatever he wants to do.
He said: "Since the situation has changed, it is natural that the cultivation of life and recuperation will be delayed, but to what extent it will be delayed, please ask the king to show you. ” "The southward migration of the nomads in Mobei will inevitably have an impact on Shiqi and Xianbei, and the widows think that we have to see how they respond."
Liu Yan thought for a while before continuing: "If you can make them lose both, it is naturally the best. ” Ji Chang understood that some things in the cultivation and recuperation could continue to be done, and the country would not expand its army in a short period of time, after all, it had not been long since the disarmament, and the immediate expansion of the army would not only change the order overnight, but also be detrimental to the overall national conditions
