After arranging the affairs of the state, Wang Xiaolie returned to Pinglu with his soldiers.

At this time, the Jin soldiers marched north along the Yellow River. Seeing their intentions, they were interested in Jiangzhou. Wang Xiaolie ordered Shao Ling to lead his troops north and guard Jiangzhou together with Zhang Jun and Zhang Qi. He ordered Niugao to station in Xia County and be ready to support at any time. .

When we returned to Pinglu County, soldiers came to report that a Hedong rebel named Li Xing had arrived in Shaanzhou yesterday and asked to see Wang Xiaolie.

When troops were sent to aid Shaanzhou, Wang Xiaolie, the anti-Jin rebel army in this area, was naturally aware of it. Li Xing was from Wangwu, and when the Jin army invaded the south, he organized nearly 10,000 villagers to go up the mountain to protect themselves. He defeated the Jin army many times, and his power was not small.

After thinking about it, Wang Xiaolie asked his soldiers to take Li Xing to the flower hall and not see him in the official hall.

When I arrived at the flower hall, I saw a big man standing there. He was tall, with a serious face, and he was neatly dressed.

Seeing Wang Xiaolie come in, Li Xing crossed his hands and said, "The last general, Li Xing, is the commander of the Hedong Road rebels. He is here to ask for a meeting and observation."

Wang Xiaolie looked Li Xing up and down. He nodded and said, "Okay. Now take a seat."

Li Xingdao: "There is no place for me to sit in front of the observation."

Wang Xiaolie smiled: "In our army, the rules are not as strict as in other places. If we have something to talk about for a long time, the soldiers will still have a seat. You can sit down."

After hearing this, Li Xingcai sat down in the seat beside him.

Wang Xiaoxing said: "I heard that you built a stronghold in Huai and Wei to fight against the Jin. It's not close to here, so why come to Shaanzhou?"

Li Xingdao: "To be honest, after the Jin army invaded the south, it was difficult for the people to survive. I gathered troops and horses to protect the villagers, but the Jin army gathered food and grass in the local area and recruited troops. Life was extremely difficult. I heard that I wanted to move to Jiang. The people from the prefecture moved south and came here specially. Now there are more than 20,000 people gathered in my village, and it is difficult to provide food. Especially this winter, it is really difficult. I want to observe the people moving south. If it is convenient, I can take them there. The people are very grateful."

Wang Xiaoxing said: "There are many idle fields in Tangzhou and Dengzhou. The people move there and have somewhere to settle. However, your village is hundreds of miles away from here, and you have to pass through Mengzhou. It is not easy to get here. If you go straight To cross the river, we have to cross Zhai to observe the territory, which is very inconvenient."

Li Xingdao: "The Jin army has been repulsed by observation. Within a few months, there are no large armies around. I lead the people southward, and I don't think there will be many obstacles. It's just that there is no food in the village, and I don't know what to eat on the way."

Wang Xiaolie said with a smile: "Yes, there is a shortage of food everywhere now. To tell you the truth, when I came to aid Shaanxi Province this time, all the food I saved this year will be almost used up. However, there is still enough food for 20,000 people. This way , I will send two thousand troops to help you, cross the river from Heyin, go to Zhengzhou, Yingchang Mansion, and go to Ruzhou. When you get to Ruzhou, there will be people to help you."

Li Xing thought for a while and said: "Ruzhou is also under observation and control. This method is feasible."

Wang Xiaolie said: "Ruzhou is my hometown. After arriving there, the people will be resettled. Those who can join the army will be selected. The training in our army is strict, and new recruits have their own place to train."

This winter, it was difficult for Li Xing to hold on to his village, and he kept thinking about going south. However, Zhai Xing in Henan Prefecture was not as powerful as Luoyang City, and Shaanxi Province was surrounded again. Li Xing could not find anyone to join him. Wang Xiaolie came to help Shaanxi Province, and again Relocating the people was in line with Li Xing's wishes.

The scope of Li Xing's activities was basically in Huaizhou and Weizhou, right on the Yellow River, an area that Wang Xiaolie wanted to demarcate as a no-man's land. If he was willing to take the people to move south, Wang Xiaolie would certainly agree.

On Hedong Road, there were many rebels who insisted on resisting the Jin Dynasty. In addition to a few large valleys, Hedong Road had too many mountainous areas, which were suitable for guerrilla warfare. The banners they used were basically Zhai Xing and Li Yanxian. Later, these two forces disappeared, and the banner

It was changed to Yue Jiajun.

After asking Li Xing about the situation in the village, Wang Xiaolie asked him to go down and rest. In the evening, a banquet was held to welcome him.

There are 20,000 people in Li Xing's village, but they must not be taken as having 20,000 soldiers. Twenty thousand people cannot support many troops if they want to maintain normal production. Li Xing's soldiers and horses are actually less than 2,000.

Of course, it is appropriate to pull out more people in emergencies.

After seeing off Li Xing, Wang Xiaolie returned to his study and looked at the map alone. According to the ideal plan, he would use Dengzhou and Xiangyang as bases, Chenzhou, Yingzhou, and Guangzhou in the east as guerrilla zones, and Guozhou in the north.

Shangzhou is a guerrilla zone, which is safe enough for defense. Although there are many thieves in the south, there is no need to worry if they are not as powerful as yourself. It will take a few years to increase your strength and you can aspire to conquer the Central Plains.

What is the biggest advantage of a person traveling through a thousand years? Of course, the extra thousand years of experience. The population at this time is only one-tenth of that of later generations, and the resources are very abundant. China has not yet shouldered the burden of population.

To a certain extent, China at this time supported a slightly larger population with better natural conditions than the United States in later generations, and it was very easy to develop.

If you want to develop, the most important thing is to have money. As long as you have political power, money is actually not a problem. Due to various reasons, paper money appeared in people's lives in the Song Dynasty. If you have political power, you can print money.

In fact, in the production and life at this time, the number of coins is far from enough. Putting a certain amount of banknotes into the society can not only increase government revenue, but also activate the economy. It's just that people at this time didn't understand and regarded banknotes as a way to make money.

tool.

For example, when Zhang Jun was in charge of Sichuan and Shaanxi, he printed tens of millions of banknotes in just a few years. The investment of so much money did not cause an increase in prices, but instead caused public and private problems. Of course, if there was no restraint and more money was invested, the banknotes would

It will become waste paper.

After saving Shaanzhou and relocating the population, Wang Xiaolie needs to consider the next development. With this military exploit, Wang Xiaolie has gained people's trust. This trust is extremely precious, and many things can start to be done. Seal

Paper money, develop industry and commerce, and develop social economy. Use the developed economy to support your own military construction. With military strength, you will have greater power and achieve better development.

Wang Xiaolie is very clear that his current situation is much better than the party's development conditions during the Anti-Japanese War. Although there are not so many talents, there are not so many difficulties. As long as society can be organized, everything will fall into place.

Straightening up, Wang Xiaolie sighed. Yes, as long as society can be organized. This is easy to say, but extremely difficult to do. Social organization is a university subject, which requires not only theories but also talents. No

What to do with talents? We can only educate ourselves.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as there are the first batch of talents, they can become teachers, which will lead to an exponential increase in talents in the entire society. Once there are enough cadres, many things will not be difficult.

Lying on the window, Wang Xiaolie looked out the window.

The first month of the lunar month is about to pass, and the soil on the earth begins to become soft under the noon sun. In the sunny place, the grass and trees quietly begin to sprout. Everything in the world is surging with vitality. After the severe cold of winter, the footsteps of spring are quietly approaching.
