Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 7
After leaving Chang'an County Yamen, Liu Yizhen went back to the mansion and buried himself in his bed.

The quilt was quite warm, with a hint of girlish body fragrance. It is not difficult to guess that Liu Yizhen slept in after the maid finished warming the quilt for Liu Yizhen.

Evil feudal aristocrats!

They should all be knocked down, and then all thrown into the fields to plow!
The next day, Liu Yizhen slept until noon before waking up, touching his drowsy head, feeling a little regretful.

Never stay up late again!

Since you have capital in this life, you must become a local tyrant!Being the Emperor of the Liver hurts the liver and also hurts the kidneys!Be sure to spend your kidneys on the handle of the knife!

After drinking some minced meat porridge, eating some pickles, and a piece of roasted venison, this is the brunch of Liu Yizhen, the top leader in Guanzhong.

After eating this simple meal, Liu Yizhen called a planner to report to him.

"Gong Guiyang, this is the household registration, money and grain of the counties in Guanzhong that Wang Changshi counted before."

Liu Yizhen took the booklet and read it very seriously.

In fact, there is a misunderstanding in later generations.

That is the "Guanzhong" captured by Liu Yu, a shrunken Guanzhong.

The geographical term "Guanzhong" is not like "Hedong" and "Hebei", which are named because of the terrain.

The military color of this thing is much more important than geographical factors.

Donghan Valley, Xisan Pass, Nanwu Pass, and Beixiao Pass.

Theoretically speaking, wherever Guanxiu goes, there is Guanzhong. As long as you can cultivate to the beautiful country, you can say that the Pacific Ocean is in Guanzhong.

Right now, Liu Yu actually only has three passes in his hands, and the northernmost Xiaoguan is not in Liu Yu's hands.

The invasion of Guanzhong from Longshang in the north came from the Qingshui River Valley and the Jingshui River Valley.

And Xiaoguan is generally located in these two valleys. (The location of Xiaoguan has been changing all the time. Later, it was determined to be in the Qingshui River Valley during Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The reason is that this road is easier to walk. The Xiongnu always come from here to beat the autumn wind. The most representative one is the burning of Ganquan Palace.)
But as early as when Liu Yu attacked Houqin, this road was occupied by Hu Xiatian Wang Helianbobo.

So Guanzhong, at the moment, is actually a Guanzhong that has missed one side.

The Anding County and Beidi County in the north are all in Helian Bobo's hands.

But those counties are really poor.

The essence of Guanzhong is on both sides of the Weihe River.

In Chang'an County alone, there are 16 households with a population of over 70.

The actual control area of ​​the entire Guanzhong Jin army is more than 50 households, more than 200 million people!This is the population after the weakening of the Later Qin Dynasty. In its heyday, one Guanzhong could support more than 300 million people.

You must know that the entire Central Plains and the South now only have about 2000 million people, and this will increase the population by one-tenth. Guanzhong lives up to the title of "Land of Abundance".

These populations are huge wealth, but at this time of food shortage, it is a huge burden.

At least until next year's autumn harvest can these more than 200 million people burst out with huge energy.

Liu Yizhen prostrated himself on the table with his chin propped up, but his eyes rolled quickly.

If these people don't want to rescue them, many people will die this winter.

Moreover, there are aristocratic families who are eyeing them. These guys will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity to annex the land. Du Shi is an example.

At present, I am afraid that only the government can solve the problem.

But... the government's family doesn't have any food left!
As I said before, due to the war in the later Qin Dynasty, the harvest in Guanzhong was in short supply, and when Liu Yu left, he took away the grain for the army to return to the east. The current government can be described as poor and white.

As a pure, kind, unpretentious, red young man who loves to work, Liu Yizhen knows that he has to fight for what he wants with his own hands!

But it was obviously impossible for him to grow food in winter at the moment.

Then I have to change my mind-

Beat the tyrants!
If you want to ask who is the richest in Guanzhong now, it must be Wang Zhen'e, who looted the post Qin treasury.

In the 34th year after the founding of the Qin Dynasty, it was in the northwest at its peak, and it was known as the three kingdoms of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

In addition, the post-Qin royal family has always been extravagant and lustful, and their treasury is as rich as anyone can imagine.

Such a huge amount of wealth was obtained by Wang Zhen'e alone.Who do you say others are not jealous of?

"We must find a way to make Wang Zhen spit out!"

For justice!
While Liu Yizhen was figuring out how to steal from Wang Zhen'e, Wang Xiu also managed to make an appointment with Wang Zhen'e.

Wang Zhen'e is a typical Guanzhong man.

Nine feet tall, with a square face, a chest-length beard, and brownish-yellow skin, he has the appearance of a proper macho.

At this moment, Wang Zhen'e was stroking his long beard and frowning slightly while holding the invitation card in his hand.

Because he and Wang Xiu are both from Jingzhao, and they are both the second in command of Wen and Wu in Guanzhong (in fact, they are the first in command), so in order to avoid suspicion, the two did not have much contact in private.

"Brother Mao, what do you think?"

What Wang Zhen'e asked was General Long Xiang and Mao Dezu, governor of Qinzhou.

Mao Dezu joined the Beifu army in his early years, and his qualifications were much higher than Wang Zhen'e. He was considered an old man under Liu Yu, and he was also older than Wang Zhen'e.

So even if he is as arrogant as Wang Zhen'e, he still respects Mao Dezu.Not to mention that the two have similar personalities, and they attacked Chang'an together before, so they can be regarded as life-and-death friends.

The biggest feature of Mao Dezu is his pair of eagle eyes, coupled with his somewhat mottled white hair, he looks quite majestic.

He looked at the greeting post: "It's probably not Wang Xiu who invited the general. Wang Xiu has always paid attention to virtue, and has never done a good job. He will definitely not invite the general privately at this time."

"And I don't know if the general has heard that Lord Guiyang invited Shen Tianzi to a banquet yesterday?"

Wang Zhen'e let out a disdainful "Oh", but there was no more text.

His disdain was not aimed at Liu Yizhen, but Shen Tianzi.

Wang Zhen'e came from a prime minister's family, and under the influence of the political environment since he was a child, he naturally felt the hostility towards him from generals like Shen Tianzi around him.

But so what?

He is Wang Zhen evil!
He is invincible.

Except for Liu Yu who swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger in the world, Wang Zhen'e has never served any generals!

Would a lion be offended by a rabbit's hostility?

After automatically filtering out Shen Tianzi's name in his mind, Wang Zhen'e understood a little: "Brother Mao means that on the surface it was Wang Xiu who invited me, but it was actually Mr. Xiaolang?"

Combined with the news that Liu Yizhen invited Shen Tianzi, Wang Zhen'e was a little amused: "Could it be that Lord Guiyang wanted to enlighten me and Shen Tianzi?"

"That's unnecessary, I've never taken Shen Tianzi to heart."

Mao Dezu knew that what Wang Zhen'e said was not for the occasion, he really didn't take Shen Tianzi to heart, but
"General, let's go to the appointment. After all, behind Wang Xiu is Lord Guiyang. The Taiwei entrusted the youngest son to us, and we should be loyal to the Taiwei."

Wang Zhen'e didn't refute this time: "It's true, it's just a banquet, not a grand banquet."

Then, Wang Zhen'e ordered: "Not for Guiyang, but for Wang Changshi, prepare a small gift, ten dou of sea pearls, ten thousand taels of gold."

Wang Zhen'e opened his mouth casually, but it showed his heroic nature.
