.............. Dividing line...............
Guangning City.
"...Build the key points of Ningyuan, and guard the eight miles to Ningyuan, and connect with Juehua Island. When the enemy attacked the city, the soldiers on the island would go out to Sancha, burn the floating bridge, and surround it to attack..."
Xiong Tingbi looked at the secret song and pondered for a while. He felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he put down his pen and let out a long breath.
Without the control of the Governor General of Ji Liao, in Liaodong, he could be said to be an important official in the city and was in charge of power alone.
Moreover, through close correspondence with the emperor, Xiong Tingbi discovered that the emperor was very strategic, not only practical, but also very similar to his.
Retract the defense line, first stabilize the position, prevent the Later Jin Dynasty from having a chance to plunder, and avoid any major losses. Then, train troops vigorously, change equipment, and hold back the ultimate moves. Three or five years later, one wave of pushing over and solving them all.
Of course, Zhu Youxiao could not say it so popular. But it also made Xiong Tingbi understand that the emperor was working on eliminating pros and cons and starting to solve internal problems. As for Liaodong, he tightened his belt and supported him with all his strength.
This year may be difficult, but it is still easy to turn around. After that, it will get better and better every year. What can’t be done if you have money?
In Xiong Tingbi's opinion, this may be a bit superficial and childish.
But Zhu Youxiao remembered what Napoleon said: "There are three elements of war, the first is money, the second is money, and the third is money."
This sentence is very clear. On the surface, war is about competing for military strength, but in fact it is about competing for who has more money.
When fighting, I only have some cleverness to piece together; but I still have some ways to make money.
Even if I don’t help, I don’t want this face anymore. Can I rob it from the powerful landlords and gentry?
Is it useful to be shameless? Chongzhen wanted to hang himself in the southeastern branch of Shandong, leaving behind a group of powerful and wealthy gentry who surrendered and welcomed the new.
If you want to die, go together. The Ming Dynasty is not my own. If you want to die, you will be the first, I will be the last one.
Of course, it is not yet dead, so Zhu Youxiao is still a little bit conscientious and not crazy in order to be as stable as possible.
Xiong Tingbi is still in Guangning, but he has begun to re-arrange and is preparing for the final move to Ningyuan.
As spring warms and ice melts, the possibility of the Later Jin army attacking again is getting smaller and smaller.
After the sea route was unblocked, the grain and food supplies from Youtunwei were transported to Shanhai, Juehua and Ningyuan; the people of Guangning City also moved the first batch and were placed in the coastal area of Tianjin by sea route.
These actions were carried out in a bid to keep them confidential. At most, Xiong Tingbi took the last group of people to evacuate, leaving behind an empty Guangning city.
As for why the city was not destroyed, it was emphasized by Zhu Youxiao in the secret decree.
It took so much money to repair the city. Isn’t it throwing all the money into the water when demolishing the city? If you want to occupy the Later Jin Dynasty, let him occupy it. If you want to defend it, let him guard it. If you want to destroy it, let them be tired.
As for the future counterattack, the enemy's reliance on the city will increase the difficulty, Zhu Youxiao can only be a joke.
You are very good at riding and shooting, and you are very powerful in the field, and you come and go like the wind. We can't beat you for the time being. But if you want to play the game of siege and defend the city, that's a great thing you want!
There are red cannons and tunnels that are blasting, so you can defend the city as soon as possible, and you can surround it and destroy it.
Xiong Tingbi was not very clear about the emperor's thoughts, but he could explain it clearly in the secret decree and he would do it.
After finally meeting an emperor who trusts himself and can let him perform, Xiong Tingbi still cherishes it very much.
Not only Guangning City, but also other forts that need to be given up, are all empty. Let the Donglu not ride horses and run around, and it is so comfortable to live in.
Thinking of the secret order, Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but caress his forehead.
The emperor’s ideas are a bit different, but if you say it’s a nonsense, there is still some truth to think about it carefully.
The key is that the battle of Guangning shocked Xiong Tingbi too much. He acted decisively, decisively and accurately judged, and was even more like a monster.
In addition, the secret memorial system that made people have to be cautious and dare not deceive the emperor and the emperor, Xiong Tingbi knew that this was not an emperor who was easy to serve, and he could not rub the sand in his eyes.
However, another idea of the Lord is really difficult to judge whether it is good or bad, and it is difficult to judge.
Mongolian mercenaries?!
When Xiong Tingbi thought of this new term created by the emperor, he couldn't help but feel a little headache. How should he reply? Why don't you try it first?
"Sir." Senator Xing Shenyan came into the house to report, "The first batch of relocated residents are ready. I will escort them out of the city?"
Xiong Tingbi nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, send them to the beach and take a boat to Jinnan to settle down! Especially those military families, you must take good care of them on the road."
Xing Shenyan bowed his hand and turned around and left.
Jinnan, Xiong Tingbi and Xing Shenyan were not very clear about the specific situation, but since the court had decided, it must have made arrangements.
…………………………………
The eastern coastal areas of Tianjin, such as Baodi, Ninghe, Tanggu and Hangu areas, are a typical river alluvial plain. The river network is densely populated with Ji Canal, Chaobai River, Huanxiang River, etc.
In later generations, the northern part of this place - Baodi, Ninghe and other places were called the hometown of fish and rice, and crops such as cotton, pepper, rice and corn were planted;
In the south, Hangu and Tanggu are famous for seafood and aquatic products, port trade and industry are gradually emerging, and agricultural planting is not very developed.
In the Ming Dynasty, there was great progress in the improvement of water conservancy in coastal saline-alkali land, and many water control and farming were carried out here.
The first person to start managing saline-alkali land was Wang Yingjiao, who served as the governor of the coastal defense in Denglai and other places in Wanli in the 26th year of Wanli.
He organized farmers and soldiers to build embankments, dams, and ditches, stock up fresh water, and then rinse the saline-alkali land with fresh water to achieve the purpose of washing salt.
After a period of treatment, the paddy fields had harvests of four or five stones per mu, and the dry crops also had one or two stones, and the yield increased significantly.
The second person who suggested that the saline-alkali land was either someone else, or the Shanghai native Xu Guangqi and Paul Xu, who believed that "there is no abandonment of soil in the world, and people who are sick and eat."
At that time, in the coastal areas of Tianjin, there were endless weeds and reeds, "only the Gegu Highlands in Jinghai County have already been fields."
Xu Guangqi said in his letter at home: "I have been paying attention to this for many years. I have no comrades in the northwest and have not been able to implement it. Now in Tianjin, there are countless wilderness fields. The most noble ones are only six, seven cents acre, and the cheapest ones are only two or three cents of money... I can only open the plant and shepherd cattle and sheep."
Otherwise, knowledge is wealth, technology is power! People can see the wealth contained in it that others look down on.
Xu Guangqi purchased about 20 hectares of land in Tianjin, half of which were used as enclosed fields. "Build soil to enclose it, and it is surrounded by continuous circles. It is a large shore on all sides of the terrain, with small shores and ditches under the shore, which is made of pond water. The external water protects all the crops inside."
From the 41st year to the 45th year of Wanli, Xu Guangqi accumulated a lot of experience and information in Tianjin to plant rice, and solved the problem of planting rice. Sweet potatoes were also successfully tested during this period.
Moreover, Xu Guangqi also found that sweet potatoes were grown in dry land in the north, and their quality and taste were better than those in the rainy areas in the south. In this regard, he once said proudly: "How long does it take for the oranges to go beyond the Huai River, and they will not be tangerines."
