Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

"Call."

Wang Lun gently pulled the reins, and the Zhaoye Lion stopped unwillingly.

He looked towards the north.

There were many generals around him, as well as Zhu Wu, Li Ying, Chai Jin, Zhu Gui and others..

There are only a few dozen cavalry, which can be said to be lightly armed and simple.

Otherwise it will not work.

These are the northernmost military villages of the Baoding Army, which have been taken over by the Liangshan Army.

There are winding rivers everywhere, and the directions are endless. Just after crossing a small river, I thought it was flowing from east to west, but it turned out that another one was flowing from north to south, and the road that could have been taken suddenly ended, and there was a large pond area in front of it.

There was also a large area of ​​woodland, shrubs, and stretches..

Even if the people starve to death or freeze to death, logging is not allowed here. In the strictest time, it is illegal to come here to collect dead wood.

There are also many man-made swamps and lakes.

This area was later formed by the Haihe River and the Dajiang River. The Qinghe River Basin, plus the filling of more than 140 lakes, formed a large swamp area, which is the famous Baiyangdian in later generations. There are many similar places.

The water stretches into vast stretches, with lush grass and trees, and greenery everywhere.

This is At the beginning of summer, there were swarms of waterfowl everywhere, and it was hard to disturb them when people came over. There was no way

, Residential Area 13 was a hundred miles away to the south, and there were only military villages and a few villages in this large area. There were few people. , there are fewer people hunting birds. It is two hundred miles from north to south and thousands of miles from east to west, forming an area dominated by man-made rivers, lakes, woodlands, shrubs, and swamps. It can be said that the changes in nature caused by man-made, here at first glance It doesn’t look like Hebei, but like Jiangnan.

Of course, the climate is very different, and you can see the difference in autumn and winter.

Spring comes late, winter comes late, and in winter, thousands of miles of ice cover, these man-made rivers and lakes They are of little use.

The trees, shrubs, and deliberately circuitous roads they planted are of no use to birds. When a large army comes to kill, they don’t know how to capture prisoners or find guides?

Regardless of the Liao or Jin Dynasty, the army going south has never been created by these natures. The defenses are blocked.

There are many military strongholds, but it is useless. If the army cannot fight, defense is useless.

It is better than the ordinary people in the Bow and Arrow Society, the Volunteer Society, and the Outlaw Society who dare to die and are good at fighting.

The Hebei Forbidden Army has not fought for a long time. In peacetime, After a long time, it will naturally be over.

At the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, the elite soldiers in the world were divided into two places, one in Hebei and the other in the capital. There were no strong enemies in the west, so it was impossible to put the elite in the northwest.

Song Taizong demolished the city of Taiyuan. Later, He also demolished Xiazhou, but soon suffered the consequences.

The Dangxiang people rebelled, and the Yin, Ling, Xia and other states were owned by Dangxiang. They easily captured them, but the Song army could not win.

Later, they could only add troops to the northwest one after another, from Renzong to Shenzong conquered many times, and the Song army was defeated.

However, after a hundred years of fighting, the Western Army became more and more elite, and the Hebei Forbidden Army became more and more useless. The simplest principle, running water does not rot, did not one of the Song Dynasty monarchs think of it?

It can be said that they are too careless about military preparations.

Anyway, Song and Liao have concluded a peace treaty, and they can buy peace with money.

But they never thought that if Liao fell, what would happen more fiercely?

Soldiers are fierce and war is dangerous, and those who are warlike will inevitably die and forget. War must be dangerous.

It's really magical.

Wang Lun's dozens of horses moved forward through the circuitous roads, woodlands, and shrubs.

Some border military forts were already behind them.

Not far ahead was the border of Youzhou.

Some Liao people's military villages and villages can already be seen faintly.

There are also mainly Han children.

Han'er has not forgotten his ancestors.

When Song Taizong's expedition passed, the Han'er cheered like thunder and enthusiastically helped the Song army. As a result...it happened again at the end of the Liao Dynasty, when the main force of the Song army was approaching, the Yan'er Han'er also rejoiced.

The result was another disastrous defeat for the Song army.

Even the remnants of the Liao army could not defeat them.

Later, Huizong also wanted to rely on the Han army warlord Guo Yaoshi to regain Youyun for him, and later he also wanted Guo Yaoshi to carry the golden man for him.

Pharmacist Guo is not stupid.

Youzhou, known as Nanjing in the Liao Kingdom, was governed by a large number of southern officials.

It is also an important source of wealth for the Liao Kingdom.

There is no other way. The Khitans started out in the mid-Tang Dynasty. They were originally a nomadic tribe, living in no fixed place and living in pursuit of water and grass.

Hu Feng still exists to this day, and the emperor goes around hunting with alms bowls.

Emperor Tianzuo killed his ancestors just by hunting.

Later, this guy was locked up with Zhao Ji, and the two emperors slept in a thatched hut together.

He was also humiliated.

I can only say that I deserve it.

There are Haihe River, Daqing River and Yongding River in the northwest.

Further north is the Yanshan Mountains. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

But Wang Lun seemed to be able to see the mountains in the distance.

In the Han Dynasty, this area was Beiping County and other counties. It was not close to Yanshan. The Han prefects and their cavalry, as well as the Liangjiazi of the border counties, could often go to the grassland to hunt.

In the Han Dynasty, prefectures and counties were established in many Hu territories today, and many Han people settled in them.

A soldier in wartime and a civilian in peacetime.

Holding a hoe and a knife, holding a bow behind his back, farming, herding, riding and shooting are all a matter of course.

The ancestors were brave, but the descendants are ashamed.

Looking at it, the other side of the border does not look like the man-made desolation here.

The villages are not densely packed, but stretch one after another towards the north.

A lot of wheat in the fields has turned yellow and will be harvested soon.

The war between Liao and Jin has not yet spread here, and Han is still the granary and land of wealth for the Liao Kingdom.

The food seems to be fine, not a bumper harvest, but passable.

Not every place can be the same as under Liangshan.

Even without the blessing of"Shen Nong", Wang Lun is confident that he will lead the people to cultivate the land well.

It is not difficult to dredge various rivers if the main canals are well dredged. It will not only bring water for irrigation, but also dig out river mud to fertilize the fields.

The collected excrement is also used as good fertilizer after processing.[]

These days, many fields are ripe only once a year.

That is to say, we only plant one season a year.

It's not that the people are lazy, it's because of the soil.

In this era, there are not enough chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the soil is used frequently. Staple crops are grown every year or two crops are harvested a year, and the land is useless within a few years.

It is really ruined, the soil is hardened, there is a lack of fertilizer, and weeds are growing.

It can only be planted once a year, and sometimes it is necessary to rotate crops, such as wheat this year, beans next year, and alfalfa again to alleviate the lack of soil.

Over in Liangshan, they not only grow staple crops every year, but also harvest two crops a year. Not to mention the blessing of 653 from Shennong, various support methods are also extremely important.

Intensive cultivation and sufficient fertility are the most important.

In addition, there is a large amount of farmland to grow beans and alfalfa to meet the needs of military horses.

There is also a lot of farmland growing cotton.

Anyway, there are two crops a year, and there are bumper harvests. There is so much food that we can’t eat it all.

After the construction of Hebei Road, Huaidong and Huaixi, these places were all agricultural areas.

It is also necessary to solve the problem of the Yellow River in the east of Huaihe River diverting the Huaihe River into the sea, and to build a large number of canals to slow down the floods during high water periods.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, Huaidong, southern Henan, and northern Anhui were plain areas with developed water conservancy. Before the development of Huguang, these areas were the real granaries. The Central Plains were densely populated and there were thousands of miles of farmland.

The Yellow River diverted the Huaihe River and entered the sea, changing its course and causing floods every year. This area became a yellow flood area and a place of poverty for thousands of years.

It will take until the new era to solve this problem with large-scale water conservancy construction. Wang Lun will not keep delaying it for that long.

The goal now is to end the war.

But the climax of the war had just arrived.

The imperial army will arrive soon

"Just leave 10,000 households here"

"Then send 10,000 households westward to capture Zhending, Zhongshan, Xinde, Qingyuan, Xiang, Jun, Huai, Wei, Shen, Ci, Bao, Zhuzhou, and Tianwei, Beiping, Ansu, Yongning, and Guang Xin, Shun'an's military prefectures and sixty-five counties were united with the troops of the West Route Army heading north."

"Then……"

Wang Lun held his whip and smiled and said:"The main forces will gather together to defeat the imperial court and ask for my troops!".
