Chapter 60 Great Development
"Wei Chigong, don't be arrogant because of your favor!" Chu Suiliang shouted.
¡°Damn it, I have to beat you to pieces!¡± Yuchi Gong was furious.
"If I, Chu Suiliang, are beaten to death by you today, I will be a national scholar, and you, Yuchi Gong, are just a common man!"
"Old Xu, Prince, don't stop me. The King of Yue and Lao Cheng won the battle, but these talkers wanted to be punished. How can this be reasonable? I am fighting to my death today, not to kill these traitorous officials!" Yuchi Christine yelled.
Xu Shiji and Li Daozong on the side held Wei Chigong firmly. Chu Suiliang also lost his temper. He leaned his head forward and shouted: "Come on! Kill me if you dare! I, Chu Suiliang, will go down in history! You Yuchi Gong is a traitor!"
"That's enough!" Li Shimin yelled.
This time, Li Shimin was really angry. He didn't expect that the current ministers would ignore his authority and start fighting in the court. How could this lead to unification?
When everyone saw that Li Shimin really lost his temper, they stopped arguing and returned to class to stand still.
Li Shimin said loudly: "I have my own judgment on the right and wrong. Li Zhen, the king of Yue, captured Houhuang City for the Tang Dynasty and severely damaged Goguryeo. His feelings can be expressed and his achievements are commendable. I should"
"Your Majesty, there are rumors in Youzhou that King Li Zhen of Yue is the reincarnation of Dou Jiande. Dou Jiande was killed by our Tang Dynasty. So, isn't the King of Yue our enemy of Tang Dynasty?" Changsun Wuji said loudly.
"Hahaha¡¡"
Li Shimin laughed loudly.
"I believe that the King of Yue faked the name of Dou Jiande's reincarnation in order to recruit troops. Moreover, even if the King of Yue is really the reincarnation of Dou Jiande, it can only mean that our Tang Dynasty is prosperous. Even Dou Jiande is willing to serve our Tang Dynasty, so why should we be afraid?"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Li Jing and other military officials saluted Li Shimin.
When Changsun Wuji and other civil servants saw that Li Shimin had made up his mind, they did not dare to say anything more and bowed to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin immediately granted rewards to Li Zhen, Cheng Yaojin, Li Ruyi, Xue Rengui and others. Li Zhen's food fief was increased by 5,000 households, Cheng Yaojin's food fief was increased by 2,000, and Li Ruyi was promoted to the third rank of Guide General. Xue Rengui was promoted to Zhechong school captain.
The sun is shining brightly, it's June, Youzhou is full of green, the news of Chang'an's award to everyone has been received, and everyone is very happy.
Since Li Zhen led his troops to attack Goguryeo and won a great victory, the Goguryeo people have never invaded the border of Tang Dynasty again, and the entire Youzhou has been peaceful and peaceful.
Youzhou has not been so quiet for a long time. As the local governors of Youzhou, Li Zhen and Cheng Yaojin are very happy. The current situation has once again proved that peace is not something that can be obtained through tolerance, but achieved through fighting.
In the past two months, Youzhou once again recruited 20,000 soldiers. Counting the more than 10,000 soldiers left from the previous recruitment, Youzhou now has a total of more than 35,000 soldiers recruited. If you include the 20,000 government soldiers and There are 30,000 local troops, and now the total strength in Youzhou has reached more than 80,000.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there has never been such a strong military force in the northeastern border area of ??the Tang Dynasty.
Raising soldiers requires money. Youzhou is a barren land and military expenditures are limited. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to raise so many soldiers. However, Li Zhen not only fed so many soldiers, but also equipped these soldiers with high-quality weapons and armor. Everyone He received a generous salary and his military morale was stable.
What¡¯s even more rare is that everything Li Zhen did did not consume the country¡¯s treasury, but found another way.
Part of the money for raising troops came from the proceeds from the expedition to Goguryeo. The last expedition to Goguryeo not only dealt a heavy blow to the economy of Goguryeo, but the soldiers who went on the expedition also plundered a large amount of property from Goguryeo.
Except for half of this batch of property left for the officers and soldiers, the rest was confiscated to the treasury. Li Zhen used the money to recruit 20,000 soldiers again, which greatly enriched Youzhou's financial resources and enabled Li Zhen to make great achievements in a short period of time. There is enough capacity to feed the newly added army of more than 30,000 people.
Of course, in order to maintain troops for a long time, it must be open source.
Although Youzhou is located in a remote place, it is on the border with foreign ethnic groups. Due to social unrest and frequent wars, commercial activities have almost stagnated.
But after the heavy damage to Goguryeo, Youzhou had a peaceful and stable development period in a short period of time, and Li Zhen decided to conduct mutual trade.
The so-called mutual market means that the government funds and provides venues to establish a market to sell salt, tea, silk, porcelain, wine, sugar, grain and other items from the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, it also purchases foreign cattle, sheep, horses, and dairy products. Then sell it to the mainland at a high price, and you can make a lot of profits from it.
This policy was greatly welcomed by the Tang Dynasty and foreigners.
Through the mutual market, the people of Youzhou can buy foreign products into the Tang Dynasty, and can also sell goods from the Tang Dynasty to foreigners. Although the government has to collect high tariffs, because the border areas are now safe, many people Still willing to sell goods, many people wanted to get rich, and the high tariffs and taxes also greatly enriched the treasury of the northeastern states of the Tang Dynasty.
This part of the tariff is more than enough to support the army, and there is even a large part of the savings.
In just over a month, the financial situation of Youying states in the northeastern border area has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The treasury was enriched, there were more horses, and even the treatment of officials and soldiers was improved. Suddenly, the officials, people and soldiers of Youying and other states were very happy and in high spirits.
Jixian County, the governor's mansion.
The entire Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has just been renovated. It is magnificent and neat, with exquisite brackets, a flat roof, and plain doors and windows.
"Ding! The host has completed the renovation of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and gained one month of life span and a box of Feitian Moutai."
"Ding! The host exchange task is completed, and you get two months of life and a fur coat."
"Ding! The host will build a new Qingshi Street in Jixian County, gain one month of life, and be rewarded with two bottles of men's cologne"
A series of notification sounds echoed from Li Zhen¡¯s mind.
Since returning from Goguryeo, Li Zhen has received a large number of rewards from the system. She has been given a life span of half a year, as well as a lot of rewards including Chinese cigarettes, Maotai liquor, Pu'er tea and Indian sacred oil, etc. This has made Li Zhen gain a lot.
Afterwards, the system assigned Li Zhen a series of tasks, such as trading, building roads, renovating mansions, and recruiting soldiers. After completing this set of livelihood tasks, Li Zhen received a lot of lifespan and rewards, and her health points increased to 40. More importantly, Li Zhen has lived for more than four years so far, which makes Li Zhen feel at ease a lot.
Li Zhen found that the tasks assigned by the system were generally based on his own needs. For example, after completing this set of people's livelihood tasks, the entire northeastern border area of ????Datang had a completely new look.
"Your Majesty, I have a few good brothers who have come to Youzhou to serve under the prince. They all have martial arts skills and will definitely help the prince to stabilize Youzhou."
