In the central stronghold where Suni lost his troops, everyone sitting there stared at Luo Zhang as if they had seen a ghost after hearing Luo Zhang's words.

They wanted to break their heads, but Luo Zhang solved the problem in a few words. Is this because they are too stupid, or is Luo Zhang too smart?

This is too shocking. Compared with Luo Zhang, they have been living lonely lives for the past few decades.

Even Cheng Yaojin has wanted to crack open Luo Zhang's head more than once to see what is inside and why he is so smart. If his son had such wisdom, he would die with a smile even if he died in battle now!

"Luo Zhang, your method is not good, it is great! Not only does it solve the problems of hundreds of thousands of people, but it also allows them to be used by us to raise horses and cattle. After this year, our Datang How many war horses and how many cows must there be!" Niu Jinda admired.

"Yes, this method is a one-and-done solution!" Hou Junji also praised.

"If His Majesty knew about it, I'm afraid Luo Zhang would have to be promoted again!" Yuchi Jingde laughed.

Everyone rolled their eyes when they heard his plain talk, this is a fool!

Hearing that everyone paused his words, Luo Zhang continued: "Not only can this be done here, but other tribes can also follow suit. These ten thousand people do not have to be stationed here. Some of them can be sent to raid various Turkic tribes. As long as Those who are disobedient will surrender directly and let them raise horses and cattle for our Tang Dynasty. If they don't obey, they will be destroyed! Give their fertile land to those who are obedient. I think those Turkic tribes will be grateful to our Tang Dynasty and be willing to work for us. Raise horses, raise cattle, raise sheep!”

"You can imagine how powerful and wealthy our Tang Dynasty will be in a few years!"

After Luo Zhang finished speaking, everyone lost their temper and admired Luo Zhang and the others.

This clever plan brought the Turks into their territory. What else could they say?

However, there was one thing Luo Zhang didn't say. He couldn't tell the people here, but he had to tell Li Shimin face to face.

That is the population relocation plan, which will move the people from Chang'an or around Chang'an to the north. There is a lot of fertile land here, and it is a pity that it is deserted here.

As long as the people are willing to come here, they will get a piece of land. I think the people will be willing to come.

You know, nowadays in Chang'an, Luoyang and other Guanzhong areas, most of the people are given land to the nobles and wealthy families. Most of the harvested food is given to these nobles and wealthy families, while the common people get very little. , let alone money, that’s even less.

The aristocratic families were too harsh on the people. Luo Zhang didn't care about this before, but he has taken root in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, he hopes that the Tang Dynasty will prosper forever so that his descendants can enjoy the glory and wealth. And these aristocratic families The nobles are the vampires of the Tang Dynasty. If things go on like this, the Tang Dynasty, let alone its ever-lasting prosperity, will probably go downhill by the time the second or third generation of emperors ascend the throne. How will his descendants enjoy the long-lasting glory and wealth? .

Of course, it is not easy to tamper with the interests of aristocratic families, and once done, Luo Zhang will surely suffer revenge. Luo Zhang does not want to take the blame, so he naturally has to find a backer.

Is there anyone in the Tang Dynasty who can be a bigger backer than Your Majesty?

So Luo Zhang had no choice but to let His Majesty do this, and he could just hide behind and make suggestions. He didn't want to be the one who stood out and be targeted by all the aristocratic families. That wouldn't be a good feeling.

You must know that once the people in Guanzhong are moved to the north and given land, the people will no longer farm the land for those aristocratic families. They will no longer be able to squeeze the people, and naturally they will not be able to drink their blood. This will touch the aristocratic families. If the fundamental interests of the clan are compromised, it will inevitably cause a bloody storm.

But this was beneficial to the Tang Dynasty. When the people got the land, they would cultivate it diligently and pay the grain on time, instead of giving it all to the aristocratic families as before, and the aristocratic families would then give a small part to the court. In this way, The food harvested by the imperial court was not as large as that of those aristocratic families.

Just like the drought in Luoyang and the sending of troops to the Northern Expedition, the court was in the embarrassing situation of having no food available.

However, the aristocratic family is so rich that they are unwilling to give out a grain of food. Regarding this, His Majesty also has a hard time expressing his sorrow.

Luo Zhang's strategy can solve the fundamental problem for His Majesty and fill the palace's granary, but if there is a harvest, there must be sacrifice, and the sacrifice is to face the wrath of the family members.

After a night of carnival, everyone was very drunk, mainly because they were happy. After staying in the harsh conditions in the north for so long, they were physically and mentally exhausted, but it was over. The Turks were finally wiped out and captured. King, it goes without saying that you will be promoted to a higher position.

Just when Luo Zhang and others were winning a great victory in the north, in Chang'an, in the imperial study room of the imperial palace, two memorials containing both joy and sorrow were placed on Li Shimin's desk.

One letter was urgently sent by Li Jing from 800 miles away. Li Shimin already knew roughly what was written in it, but it was written in more detail in this memorial.

The other memorial was urgently delivered from 800 miles away in Langya County. This memorial was not good news.

Putting Li Jing's memorial aside, Li Shimin picked up the memorial from Langya County again, with veins popping out on his forehead.

In such a good situation, Langya County was still lost?

How could this make Li Shimin not angry?

If 40,000 people besieged Langya County, it would be excusable for Langya County to lose, but it is not the case now. Liu Renyuan and Liu Rengui tried their best to intercept and kill the Japanese and Gaoguli fleets, reducing their number by half to only two. Thousands of people.

Ordinarily, it is not impossible for 20,000 people to capture Langya County, but it is impossible to think about it in a short time. Once his army moves to Langya County, these Japanese and Gaoguli people will be tortured.

However, Langya County was breached before it could even hold on for a day, and it is still unknown how it was breached. The governor of Langya County also disappeared without a trace, and his whereabouts are unknown. However, according to the heads of the major families who escaped, the governor also He escaped without being captured, which is intriguing.

When Li Shimin saw this memorial, he had already lost his temper and smashed a lot of things. He has been sitting here for a while now.

"Li Junxian!" Li Shimin said in a cold tone.

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, a figure flashed out, stood under the main hall and bowed: "I'm here!"

"Find the governor of Langya County for me. If you want to see him alive or dead, I want to see his corpse. I want to ask him how he lost my Langya County. Want to run away? Chase him to the ends of the earth and catch him back!" Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said.

"My lord, I obey the order!"
