    Girl Yaoguang gave me an elbow first, then glared at me with shame and annoyance, and raised her hand to gently rub my injured waist.  Come on, who asked me to marry such a violent girl? She brings pain and joy, and it seems that she will be with me for the rest of my life.  On the same day, Sister Yaoguang and my mother-in-law went to Tang Guogong's Mansion. Naturally, they wanted to try to persuade Queen Dou, and asked Queen Dou to persuade Li Yuan to put down his arrogance. More importantly, he wanted to save his life and not compete with me, his son-in-law.  He was competing with others and risked his own life.  However, after waiting for three days for no reply, Queen Dou couldn't help but become a little anxious. She even wanted to rush to Shanxi in person to convince Li Yuan in person. This shocked both my mother-in-law and my sister, and they finally managed to  Queen Dou persuaded him to stay.  After that, I finally received a reply from Li Yuan. The letter sang peace. Well, it means that although there are conflicts in Shanxi, they can definitely compete with their opponents with their strength, and these enemies all have their own agendas.  Yes, we will definitely not work together. As long as we hold on for a while, I believe those who want to come to Shanxi to pick up the bargain will give up.  At the end of the reply came a vague sentence. If things were not harmonious, he would not risk his life and would make plans to make things happen.  ¡°Well, I¡¯m embarrassed to say that I will take refuge in me, and I¡¯m embarrassed to say that I will implement the plan I suggested, but at least I made my attitude clear to Queen Dou.  This also made my mother-in-law and my sister breathe a sigh of relief.  Within two days, Li Shimin¡¯s letter also arrived.  Naturally, it was said that Li Yuan had warned him and asked him to stay alert in case of a large-scale attack by Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande.  " However, at this stage, we are just making preparations. After all, it is the time when the economy is still in recession. Whoever wants to move depends on how much food is left in their pockets.  "But I am different. Guanzhong has a good harvest and sufficient food. Now, this year, we have vigorously promoted two kinds of food a year and three kinds of food every two years in all counties under our control."  Coupled with the field clarification this time, the cleared fields account for one-third of the entire Guanzhong and Guanbei regions.  In other words, even if nearly half of the entire Guanzhong area is hit by disasters this year, the grain harvest will be the same as last year.  What a terrible number this is?  At least when the work of clarifying the fields was completed and they saw the thick report, the surprised and almost distorted expressions of all the important civil and military officials were enough to know how shocking the news was.  "In the past, the grain in Guanzhong had to be transported from the south of the Yangtze River. Now, the grain income of the entire Guanzhong and Guanzhong and other regions is not only self-sufficient, but also able to produce a large amount of grain for trade. This shows how great the potential of Guanzhong is.  "You also know how much trouble the wealthy families in Guanzhong had in the past." "It's been ten days now, right?" Next to him, Wei Yunqi was lying on the sand table, not moving at all.  Like the monk who is about to pass away.  "Well, today is the eleventh day." Yang Gongdao stroked his long beard and his eyes also fell on the sand table.  "They arrived at the supply point on the afternoon of the fifth day, and just after noon on the eighth day, the army had arrived at Qipan Pass. By today, they should have set off from Qipan Pass. But we don't know when they will launch an attack on Uiseong County  Attack." "It should be soon, right? It's only a hundred miles from Qipanguan to Yicheng County. If we travel all the way, we can get there tonight." Fang Xuanling also looked at the sand table curiously.  In the past two days, after lunch at noon, everyone would come to this hall to drink tea and chat while discussing with each other. I ordered someone to bring a smaller sand table over, and finally let everyone  There is a place for it.  ¡°Now the more time goes by, the more nervous these people become, including me. I want to hear everyone¡¯s opinions every day.  After all, this is our first step to unify the world. The previous conquests of the Hexi region and the Western Qin region were just for practice, and more importantly, to open up trade routes.  But now, we are really wielding the sharp blade in our hands. This move will definitely arouse the vigilance of the heroes in the south of the Yangtze River. By then, although the Central Plains tyrants will still be unable to do anything to us, Xiao Xian and others are not kind-hearted people.  , you will definitely be wary.  "It won't be that fast." Wei Yunqi shook his head decisively: "After leaving the chessboard pass, it is the Shu Road. The Shu Road is difficult and not as easy as imagined. According to some estimates, it will take at least two days.  , before entering Yicheng County. " "Yes, the Shu Road is difficult and dangerous. Although the Shu Road from Qipanguan to Yicheng County was bought by a wealthy businessman from Yicheng County, we invested in repairing the road, but even so, it was only on the original basis.  It has been reinforced, and in many places, at most, only three people can walk side by side, and even a slightly larger carriage cannot pass" Du Ruhui said with a sigh.  "Then it really takes two days." Fang Xuanling couldn't help but frown.  "Well, let's wait a little longer. Maybe we will get good news late tomorrow night." I smiled and comforted these people.  When I got back to the office, my brows alsoIt was tightly wrinkled.  "Your Majesty, are you still worried about General Qu and the others?" Wei Yunqi saw my expression and asked with a smile after Li Yuanfang brought me the steaming tea.  "Yes, how can you not be worried? This time, I have spent a lot of money. Not to mention anything else, the equipment of these armies alone is more than two years old from the Hancheng County Armor Manufacturing Company.  Moreover, if this trip south is thwarted, my time to bring peace to the world will be delayed by at least five years," I patiently explained to Wei Yunqi after taking a sip of tea.  "No wonder you are so worried, sir, but I think it's not a big problem." Wei Yunqi showed a smile on his face and smiled very calmly.  "Oh? What do you mean by this?" I couldn't help but ask.  "I think that General Qu Tutong Qu has experienced hundreds of battles, whether it was the northern expedition to Goguryeo in the past, or in the last years of the Great Cause when the world was in chaos, he fought in all directions, won more than he lost, and even when he was defeated occasionally, he was able to protect his troops.  In addition, there are now many generals such as Li Jing and Qin Shubao making plans, and our Chinese Renaissance Army has been fighting on the sand for a long time and has won every battle. Is it possible that His Majesty is afraid that he will not be able to win a small Yicheng County?  At this point, Wei Yunqi took a deep breath: "The weather is with me, the right location is with me, and the people are with me. The General Staff has made many calculations, and the result is that our army can take all Bashu, so why should your majesty return it?"  Such worries "Well, it seems that I have overthought it." After hearing Wei Yunqi's words, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. That's right, the old guy Qu Tutong was a ruthless person. In the past,  Before meeting Yaoguang girl, I could be considered victorious in every battle.  And after that, although he was defeated by Yaoguang sister several times, he was able to stabilize his position every time and retreat while fighting, which shows his ability.  Think about the other former Sui generals who met Yaoguang, the goddess of war, and were beaten to a bloody pulp.  Only Qu Tutong would be bruised and swollen at best, but at least he could maintain the ability to fight again.  This is enough to be called a famous general.  In addition, with Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty from another historical time and space, advising on the side, and with Qin Shubao and other powerful generals supporting him, it would be difficult for Qu Tutong not to win.  I touched my tense brow, took a long breath and smiled.  "By the way, Wei Qing, now that General Qu Tu is leading the army, you have to shoulder the burden of the Ministry of National Defense." "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best." Wei Yunqi replied respectfully towards me.  "By the way, there's one more thing. I've always forgotten to tell you. Next time, don't take any risks and enter the enemy camp alone. If you really did something wrong at that time, your morale will definitely be dealt a heavy blow. Also,  At that time, how should I explain it to Madam-in-law?" I looked at Wei Yunqi and spoke solemnly.  Wei Yun was stunned at first, his eye circles gradually turned red, and he fell to the ground.  "Your Majesty is worried." "You have to promise me not to take such risky actions next time." I helped Wei Yunqi up and said sincerely, and Wei Yunqi nodded heavily.  "By the way, you have stayed in the north the longest. What do you think of the land in West Qin and Hexi?" I sat down again and saw Li Yuanfang serving tea to Wei Yunqi. I asked him about the situation in the north.  "There are many mountains and the area is relatively dry. The lives of the common people are not as good as those in Guanzhong and Guanbei areas." Wei Yunqi replied: "But after His Majesty promised to exempt taxes for two years, the living conditions of the common people are not as good as those in Guanzhong and Guanbei areas."  It's enough. In addition, many of the soldiers who were forced to join the army have returned to their hometowns to work in farming. It is estimated that after this autumn harvest, the entire Hexi and Western Qin areas will be self-sufficient.  There are nearly 100,000 people who have retired from the army and returned to their hometowns to work in the countryside. In addition, your Majesty requires a better army and simpler administration. Therefore, at present, we have only recruited three armies from the land of Hexi and Western Qin, and from the old soldiers of the former Western Qin and Hexi.  "As for the remaining nearly 100,000 old soldiers, all have been transferred to the reserve force, and some have become engineering corps. They are building various factories and mines, and strive to connect the cement straight road in Longxi within one year.  Within this year, a straight concrete road will be built between the counties in Western Qin and Hexi." Having said this, Wei Yunqi took a deep breath.  "I'm afraid this is another big expense." "It doesn't matter, I'm afraid we can still make a lot of money this year." I smiled and waved my hand.  "Why, has your Majesty thought of another good idea to make money?" Wei Yunqi asked excitedly.  "Did you know that at the beginning of this year, the number of merchants going to Guanzhong was 20% higher than last year. Moreover, many of the merchants were wealthy businessmen from the Western Regions. Our tariffs in the first three months were  It has reached 2.8 million yuan, and the domestic tax revenue is 2.35 million yuan." When he said this, I saw Wei Yunqi's eyes bulging.
