Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: "It's hard work, hard work."

This hard work really came from the heart, Xiao Jing burst into tears when he heard it, only listening to His Majesty's heart-warming words, Xiao Jing seemed to feel that this trip was worth it.

Emperor Hongzhi immediately looked at Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan was gasping for breath, out of breath, before he said: "I have seen Your Majesty..."

Xiao Jing was stunned when he heard the heavy panting, the warm current in his heart suddenly became a little cold.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes couldn't help but become more gentle.

Just now Xiao Jing was full of anger, he bowed down and burst into tears, even though it made Emperor Hongzhi feel quite touched.

But obviously...Xiao Jing is so calm, he must have walked calmly.

But Fang Jifan is different, Fang Qing's family has changed from the usual chatter, but they are out of breath, could it be... they came here all the way?

Although he is young, he still needs to pay attention to his body.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh, the young man just doesn't cherish himself, and he is not in a hurry for this moment.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Come, give Fang Qing's family a seat."

really……

Xiao Jing's face was tense, clearly he was the one who worked hard.

Without saying a word, he immediately stood up, and without waiting for the little eunuch's reaction, he hugged Jindun himself, and forced a smile at Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan sat down calmly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty..." Fang Jifan cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "My disciple Wang Shouren has rushed back from Ural. He has been sent to the west to recruit for several years. This time he came back, full of travel and dust. My minister is originally I pity him for his hard work and want him to rest, but he insists on going to the palace to have an audience and report about the Urals, so I came with him after thinking about it."

Only then did Emperor Hongzhi notice Wang Shouren.

Wang Shouren saluted Emperor Hongzhi expressionlessly: "I have seen Your Majesty."

Emperor Hongzhi already had a deep impression on Wang Shouren.

He nodded his head and cheered himself up, then said: "How is it, how is it there? I heard that the Qing family led troops across the Ural Mountains, and after that, they farmed at the western foot of the mountain, right?"

Wang Shouren said: "Report to Your Majesty, that's exactly the case."

He paused, and then said: "After the minister and his troops crossed the mountain, the Ural Mountains are really a natural moat. Not only is the weather bad, but the road is extremely difficult, but facing the entire Ural west, it is fertile for thousands of miles. The severe cold and bad weather make the land mostly swampy, and it becomes muddy and difficult to walk in winter, but here... the land is still fertile, and further west, it is even more fertile, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a granary for thousands of miles."

Qianli granary...

Hearing this, many people couldn't help feeling warm.

In fact, there are not many places in this world that are really suitable for growing food.

It's just that the Han people hold the simple concept that food is the most important thing for the people, and because of the large population, it doesn't matter whether it's fertile land or ordinary mountains and fields, any land has to give you food.

However, looking at the whole world, there are not many places that are really suitable for growing grain. As for the thousands of miles of granaries, there are only a handful of them in Da Ming's view.

"Oh? Really?" Emperor Hongzhi sullenly.

"Exactly, there are also a large number of Tatars migrating and settling in the west of the Urals. According to their descriptions, I am also very concerned about this, so I ordered people to organize an expedition to go there, including the captain of Tuntianwei. It took more than a year to draw maps and survey the land before bringing back this extremely useful information."

The monarchs and ministers couldn't help being moved when they heard this. It is conceivable that a group of people left their settlements and went to strange places. It took them a year to travel thousands of miles. Those who have not experienced these here will also sweat for them.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and said, "The vastness of the world has really opened my eyes. I, the Ming Dynasty, only focused on the south of the Yangtze River before, so my eyesight was really short-sighted."

This is the truth.

Because since Wang Shouren dared to say that this is a thousand-mile granary, then...it must be another Jiangnan.

Even the Golden Continent has fertile land, but most of it is undeveloped barren land, and it needs generations of people to cultivate it before it can become a granary.

Wang Shouren said: "This Ural is undoubtedly a natural moat between Daming and this granary, which makes it extremely difficult for the army to supply supplies. Because of this, I did not rush forward greedily, but first set up farmland at the western foot of Ural to recruit troops. Refugees of all ethnic groups, the Xingfu Group wants to continue to advance westward, relying on the supplies of Ming Dynasty, it is absolutely impossible, only by establishing supplies at the western foot of the Urals, can they continue to use troops westward."

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help nodding again.

It is a taboo for military strategists to be greedy for merit.

Obviously, Wang Shouren is not just a general, but a man with a brain. What he thinks about is the future.

Back then, when the strong Han Dynasty flourished in the Tang Dynasty, it spread all over the world. The powerful Han army and Tang soldiers even reached Persia and fought in Tianzhu.

But so what, after all, these places cannot last long, even if they are defeated, in the end, they cannot be occupied for a long time.

But Wang Shouren's strategy is completely different.

If he achieves a great victory in the west of the Urals, it is certainly gratifying and congratulatory, and he has achieved great fame. But how? end result, possibly

It became the end of the battle, and in the end, the result of the great victory was like a flash in the pan.

What Wang Shouren chose...was an even more terrifying tactic. He started farming, growing food, recruiting troops, refugees, and even the people of various ethnic groups who were bullied by the Ross people.

As long as food is planted in the field, the population will gradually increase, and it will gradually seesaw with the Ross people. The bad weather and the muddy land are certainly not good for the Happy Group's westward march, but To a certain extent, it is also very detrimental to the power of the Ross people to drive out the happiness group. This is enough to give Wang Shouren a huge room to play.

Wang Shouren said: "After I brought people to the west foot, I found that although the land there could not grow wheat and rice, the muddy land was unique to potatoes, and the yield per mu could reach two thousand catties. With this Potatoes, I dare to say, as many as ten years, and as few as three to five years, the Ming Dynasty can organize a hundred thousand troops to nibble westward without spending a single grain."

Emperor Hongzhi kept nodding. Although he had heard about Wang Shouren's strategy for a long time, it was completely different from Wang Shouren's face-to-face mention of his ideas.

Wang Shouren is a very thoughtful person. He is patient, able to see the timing, capable of writing and martial arts. The emperor was shocked, and couldn't help but cast a glance at Fang Jifan who was sitting beside him, and said inwardly, "This is how you should have a child."

This is an extremely prudent strategy. Even Emperor Hongzhi is now worried about the Ross people. They can only be considered unlucky when they meet Wang Shouren.

Slightly calmed down: "I also heard that the Qing family recruited refugees and educated people of all ethnic groups?"

"Yes." Wang Shouren nodded and said, "Your Majesty, people in the world, no matter where they come from, are born, old, sick, and dying. What they ask for is nothing more than a stable life, and what they want...is not to starve to death. In Ural The Tatars were suffering from hunger and cold, and were repeatedly invaded and plundered by the Ross people. They had already reached an unbearable level. Most of these Tatars were descendants of the Mongols. Migrating refugees from the pass, therefore, must rely on these Tatars."

And next, it was obvious that Emperor Hongzhi was most concerned about the issue.

Are these Tartars...reliable?

If it's unreliable, wouldn't everything be lost?

But if it is reliable...to educate the Tatars...isn't this the dream of many Confucian scholars since ancient times.
