Chapter 41 Development of Liaodong
At this point, Gongsun Lu's confidants, except for Tian Yu and Qian Zhao who were still guarding the border area, all began to practice the internal skills and mental methods of the martial arts world. After the two of them returned from their semi-annual regional reports, Gongsun Lu then taught them the inner method.

As for other people in Liaodong, Gongsun Lu doesn't want to spread the internal skills and mental methods for the time being.They just secretly select some die-hard soldiers from the entire army and prepare for the next step of training.

After accepting the martial arts taught by Gongsun Lu, the group of civil servants and generals under him fell to the ground one after another, swore to the heavens with their blood, if they spread the immortal family martial arts taught by their lord, they would be hit by thunder and thunder, and all future generations would be killed Good ending.

Gongsun Lu watched as his men began to enter a meditative state.He nodded secretly and spread martial arts to the world. To be honest, Gongsun Lu had thought about this decision for a long time. The origin of the fragment was unknown, and Gongsun Lu didn't know what its purpose was.

But why not turn the advantage you have into cash into cash!
Gongsun Lu decided to expand his original pension plan a little more, so that if there were any changes, he would have more power in his hands and have more security for his future pension life.

After a few months, Tian Yu and Qian Zhao also came back.The other generals under Gongsun Lu have developed some degree of Qi, among which Zhao Yun is the most outstanding.

He didn't have the help of fragments, but he made rapid progress. Except for Tai Shici, the amount of Qi produced by others in the army was far more than twice that of others.In addition to internal strength, Gongsun Lu also taught Qinggong, such as the snake-shaped raccoon flip. After all, using Qinggong like Jin Yan Gong to jump high in the air is undoubtedly a mockery in the army. It is easy to be shot by people with fire and thousands of arrows. In this case, this It is more suitable to do this kind of exercise.

As for other martial arts, they have just started to practice now, so they should not be distracted too much. When the internal skills have reached a certain level, Gongsun Lu will teach them. But what is beyond Gongsun Lu's expectation is the result of everyone's practice!

Among everyone's internal strength training, Guo Jia was the worst. After all, he was born to escape, how could he stand up to meditate and practice diligently?

Unexpectedly, Guo Jia was the best at practicing the Snake-Shape Lifan, a light skill in the Nine Yin Manual.

Gongsun Lu, who was watching, also smiled wryly.He secretly sighed that he really deserved to be the slippery Guo Jia, if he came to Deer and Ding Ji, he would definitely live a better life than Wei Xiaobao!
Let us turn our attention back to the development of Liaodong.

At present, the navy in Gongsun Han's hands has expanded to more than 8000 people. At the same time, Da's salt farm can basically produce [-] stones of refined salt per month. This number has accounted for nearly half of Liaodong's money and grain income.

As for Tian Yu and Qianzhao's Banshi, it was also very prosperous. A large number of Goguryeo and Sanhan tribes were attracted to live in Xuantu and Daifang. They were organized into households one by one by the two, and they were officially added to the common people of Liaodong. The prosperous trade also attracted merchants from the Han states to Liaodong. Xiangping City has been expanded twice. Along the ancient road in western Liaoning, a large number of post stations set up on Gongsun Road connected this trade road. At the same time, these post stations have also become small towns. Small purchase points also gather a large number of merchants, forming a large and small goods sales center, and the market is not closed at night.

A large amount of seafood, salt, ironware, etc. were continuously shipped in and out of Liaodong.

Liaodong's annual income in money and food made Bing Yuan and Guan Ning smile from ear to ear, shouting "A prosperous age!"
At the same time, the high-quality seeds brought back by Gongsun Lu from the Southern Song Dynasty were quickly planted in Liaodong.

Winter wheat, soybeans, cotton.Their biological competitiveness that spanned the ages allowed them to be quickly planted on a large scale throughout the Northeast Plains, and their food production increased significantly.

A large number of high-quality iron ores were mined in the Anshan area. After Gongsun Road proposed using water to forge ironware.The entire Liaodong Army began to replace its armaments. All the original old armors were handed over by Gongsun Han to Liu Bei and Tao Qian who had fought in the previous Battle of Xuzhou through shipping trade.

Why not sell it to Cao Cao? Of course, these two guys are richer. Cao Cao is indeed powerful.But really poor.

As Liaodong quickly began to prosper, Liaodong also received a large number of refugees and foreigners. Gongsun Lu launched various fertility benefits, such as having three children, reducing the fertility pressure of the people, and issuing foreign wives for free, etc. to promote the population. , in just two years, the recorded population in Liaodong has increased by nearly [-]. Most of the people came from Qingzhou and Xuzhou to escape the war, and many people from the coast even followed Gongsun Han. The sea ships came directly to Liaodong.

At the same time, the standing army in Liaodong also began to increase. In troubled times, those with money but no soldiers will only become targets.

In the past, when Liaodong was still in the era of Gongsun Du, there were only about [-] troops and horses in the entire Liaodong. In the past two years, in addition to the navy's troops, Gongsun Lu reorganized the original troops.

Twenty thousand cavalry and thirty thousand infantry.Xuantu and Daifang each also recruited [-] servants, most of whom were warriors selected from the tribes of Goguryeo and Sanhan.

There are also two special armies, the 5000-strong Baima Yicong, commanded by Zhao Yun, and the [-] Huoben personal guards selected by Gongsun Lu when he came to Liaodong, commanded by Tai Shici.

The armaments of these two troops can be said to be the most sophisticated. Baima Yicong is an expert in riding and shooting. Gongsun Lu equipped them with cotton armor. This was Gongsun Lu's inspiration from the Ming and Qing cavalry, using very thin iron armor. The repeatedly forged cotton pieces are sandwiched between them and fixed with steel nails.Lightweight and very protective.The big yellow crossbow fifty steps away can no longer penetrate.It's just that the defense against blunt objects is a bit poor.

As soon as cotton arrived in the late Han Dynasty, it was enthusiastically sought after by the local people in Liaodong who had suffered from the cold.They broke up the cotton, made it into cotton thread, and woven it into clothing. You must know that most of the clothing of the Han people at this time is made of linen and silk, neither of which can be considered very warm and comfortable materials.Especially in the northern border areas of the Han Dynasty like Liaodong.

But animal skins and fox furs are not available to all people. At this moment, cotton cloth, as a cheaper and more cost-effective material, has been loved by all people in Liaodong once it was launched.Of course, Gongsun Lu is not yet able to promote it to the whole world. Outside of Liaodong, there are only some quilts and cotton clothes bought by some business travelers. Gongsun Lu made them extremely beautifully.

Obviously, this unique and very warm quilt was also very popular among the nobles.The supply in the market was basically in short supply, and Gongsun Han earned a lot of money.

As for Huobenying.Gongsun Lu positioned them as medium and heavy cavalry in the Tang Dynasty.He equipped them with Mingguang armor, long sabers and long spears!The long knives are slightly curved, somewhat similar to the Mongolian long knives. As for the long knives, each one has a blade of nearly [-] centimeters and a barrel of [-] meters. If you don't have the strength, you really can't swing this big guy.

Let's talk about the navy again. At present, Gongsun Han has established strongholds on all four large islands of Japan, and a small city has been established in the place closest to Xuzhou.

Some of the residents above are the first generation of refugees from Xuzhou who escaped the war, and the other part are the current aborigines of Japan Island.

When they first landed on the island, some Japanese people discovered Gongsun Han, but the short Japanese people saw that he was taller than them and driving a ship as huge as a mountain. Just like the Native Americans who saw Magellan, they saw Gongsun Han. Others regard them as gods.They all took out their treasures to contribute to the gods.

But similarly, not all Japanese are like this.Some Japanese coveted the exquisite weapons, armor and food of the navy like Gongsun Lu.Groups of soldiers would often attack lone soldiers.

Gongsun Han was extremely annoyed.What should a soldier do if he has a headache? He simply slaughtered several villages of the attacked Japanese, and everyone's heads were made into a Jingguan.

Gongsun Han doesn't like people in this land, they are ignorant, ignorant, uncivilized like this land.

But later he fell in love with it. As a conqueror, as long as you are cruel to him, start killing, give them some benefits, and train them well, they will be as docile and obedient as lambs. This feeling makes Gongsun Han It reminds me of the feeling of taming falcons and hunting dogs when I was a child.
