Chapter 919 Remind Liu Heizi

When the Qing army guarded Luoyang, the resistance was fierce. Most of the buildings in the city were burned down, and the city suffered heavy losses.

Minister Wei Guoyou suggested that the people be recruited to repair it during the slack season, but Gao Yihuan waved him down.

The reason is very simple. Years of war and Geng Zhongming's scrapping of land in Henan made the northern part of Henan very dilapidated.

Now Henan is sparsely populated and has a lot of wasteland. The population is mainly used to reclaim wasteland and carry out agricultural planting, which cannot support a large city.

After Luoyang was repaired, there was no population in the city, and the residents in the city had no livelihood and were useless. At present, the main task is to resume production in Henan and end the poverty of the people. Economic activities will slowly pick up when the people have enough to eat.

The fields in northern Henan have been abandoned for many years. After the land has recuperated, its fertility has recovered, and it is bound to be high-yielding when it is reopened.

Gao Yihuan came to the field with a group of people, and saw many people, men, women, old and young, going to battle together, all carrying hoes, dustpans, and baskets, clearing the fields and building houses.

Gao Yihuan looked at it and asked, "Are these all disbanded rebels?"

Li Yan, who was accompanying him, said, "Most of them are rebels from western Henan, local bandits who descended from the mountain, and some are people who rebelled from Nanyang."

Wei Jun regained Henan. As Mr. Li, known to everyone in Henan, Li Yan came to Luoyang in person to preside over the restoration and production of Henan.

Gao Yihuan asked, "Is their farming skills unfamiliar? The government should give more guidance."

Li Yan smiled and said: "Your Majesty is joking, any old farmer knows better than us how to farm land, and we don't need any guidance. What the feudal government should do is to move the people from the mountains and forests in western Henan and the people from the barren areas to Henan. In the Eastern Plains, people in Nanyang and other places are encouraged to return to their hometowns, and large-scale adjustments are made to make land cultivation more reasonable."

The western part of Henan is mountainous and the land is barren. People planting three mu of land there may not be able to harvest as much as one mu of land on the plain.

Moving the population out of these barren areas will enable their labor to obtain an equal harvest, and will not leave good land resources idle.

Nanyang is densely populated, with little land per capita, and the land is continuously cultivated, which affects fertility. The people there are encouraged to return to their hometowns. When they return to northern and eastern Henan, they will not idle human resources and make full use of labor.

Gao Yihuan nodded in satisfaction, "Haha, the Gu Wang is relieved to leave the matter of Henan to Mr.

Gao Yihuan walked around outside the city, and then rode back to the palace. Several military camps had already been stationed outside the city, and the soldiers inside were training in full swing.

The Ming army in the south was provocative from time to time, and Sun Kewang in the southwest was also a little restless. This made Gao Yihuan decide to speed up the speed of destroying the Qing Dynasty, so as not to have long nights and dreams, so he increased his troops to Henan.

Wei Guo has expanded rapidly in recent years, eating too much land, which has aroused the vigilance of the surrounding forces.

Both Nanming and Sun Kewang have realized that once the Wei army unifies the north, they will be the next to suffer.

Therefore, from the perspective of the situation, there is an invisible potential force that pushes Sun Kewang to gradually leave the Western Wei Dynasty and move towards the union with Nanming.

Now, Gao Yihuan has noticed this momentum, so he is going to wipe out the Qing army in the pass before Sun Kewang completely changes his attitude. By then, it will be too late for Sun Kewang to completely change his attitude, haha~
At this time, Gao Yihuan rode back to the palace, Zhou Dali stepped forward to hold the horse, and reported: "Your Majesty, Deputy Envoy Fang is asking to see you."

Gao Yihuan got off his horse, handed him the whip, and asked, "Where is he?"

"Wait in the side hall!" Zhou Dali took the whip and cape.

As Gao Yihuan walked in, he ordered: "Let him come to the study to meet Gu!"

Gao Yihuan returned to the study, drank a cup of tea, and then stood in front of the map with his hands behind his back to watch.

At this moment, Fang Jiayu came in and said to his back, "My lord!"

Gao Yihuan turned around, sat back in his seat, and asked, "Is there anything to report, is it about Liu Shun?"

"Your Majesty knows things like a god!" Fang Jiayu said, "There are two things, one of which is indeed about General Liu."

Gao Yihuan stretched out his hand to signal him to take a seat, then smiled and said, "How is he doing recently, has Pi County been taken?"

After the battle of Huangtuya, Gao Yihuan received a memorial from Liu Heizi, describing the battle and subsequent actions.

Gao Yihuan also agreed with Liu Heizi's actions. With Liu Heizi in the south of Shandong and Huaibei, he blocked the way for the Qing army and the Ming army to join forces.

Although this possibility is relatively small, it is not impossible. After all, when Dorgon entered the pass, it was under the banner of avenging Chongzhen and destroying the thieves.

At this time Fang Jiayu said: "Your Majesty, General Liu led more than 30 people to attack Pixian County. Xuzhou Ma Guanghui and Wang Jiaping led troops to rescue them. When they saw that the rebels were so numerous that they dared not listen or look, they stopped at Shuanggou. The soldiers did not move forward, but General Liu has already captured Pi County, opened a warehouse to release grain, and gathered a crowd of [-] to [-]."

Gao Yihuan frowned when he heard Wang Jiaping's name, and frowned when he heard Liu Heizixiao gathered 10 people, "Liu Shun is developing very fast!"

Fang Jiayu heard that King Gao's tone seemed not quite right, so he didn't dare to continue speaking. Seeing that there was no response for a while, Gao Yihuan urged, "How will the Tartars deal with Liu Shun?"

Fang Jiayu then went on to say: "There are three groups of troops encircled and suppressed by the Tartars, but two of them are not worth mentioning. The key is Boluo who set out from Jinan. He led 30 elite Tartars and has taken Yanzhou and Jining. The army that kept General Liu in Shandong was defeated, but now that General Liu has gathered [-] troops, when Boluo enters Huaibei, it is estimated that General Liu will be helpless."

Gao Yihuan pondered for a while, and said, "The lonely king will send more troops to Kaifeng to contain Boluo, but you have to send someone to inform Liu Shun, so that he should not only pay attention to Manqing, but also to the south!"

Fang Jiayu said: "Your Majesty is worried that the Ming army will attack General Liu?"

Gao Yihuan said in a deep voice: "Just in case! It's not impossible."

"Yes! I understand!" Fang Jiayu nodded.

Gao Yihuan added: "Gu decided to add Liu Shun as the general guarding Shandong, and you send someone to take the decree with you."

Fang Jiayu nodded, and Gao Yihuan immediately asked, "The other thing, is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

"Your Majesty, it's a good thing!" Fang Jiayu smiled and said, "Sun Kewang's Chen Yin was found!"

Gao Yihuan raised his brows and stood up. He forgot about this, and hurriedly asked, "How many are there, can you take them out?"

Fang Jiayu replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the number is still unknown, but the news from the spies said that it was at least ten million taels. It's just a little troublesome to get it out, and it needs to build a diversion dike, which may require a lot of manpower and material resources."

Gao Yihuan took a few steps back and forth, "You have to keep this matter a secret, the Gu Wang will send a commissioner to direct the Sichuan side to handle it."
