Chapter 372

If the second sea barrier is not broken, the more the physical cultivation reaches the back, the closer it is to the limit, the more difficult it will be to improve.

Therefore, there is an additional set of cultivation method, that is, when practicing the routine, find a wonderful opportunity to enter the sea at the same time, cultivate the flesh body and the yuan God together, strengthen them at the same time, and then look at the machine to break the second sea barrier and break through the limit.

Wei Ran tried several times, but he couldn't guarantee to play the routine and settle down at the same time.

Finally, I really couldn't find a way, so I had to give up temporarily. I practiced the routine first, and then slowly tried to find out where the hole was.

As for Shengjing pill, it can quickly generate essence Qi in the body and speed up the cultivation efficiency. Wei Ran doesn't intend to refine too much for the time being. On the one hand, he already has a good way to enhance his physical strength.

Shengjing pill can only add to the icing on the cake, making the flesh enter the limit faster, and can not achieve a fundamental breakthrough.

Moreover, this thing is very expensive. Most of his money is used to support the army and develop the economy. There is some emergency money in the government treasury, but it belongs to the development fund of the power. It can't be used at will, otherwise it will damage the development budget.

He didn't have much money in his own pocket, the kind of poor egg jingling. So seeing ah Li so rich, I would use my crooked brain to steal the rich woman's money.

"Forget it, just make one or two for the sword star to improve his strength. It's not in vain to leave a legacy in this world. "

……

After Wei Ran disposed of the booty and basically changed them into money, he returned to kuozhou with Princess Shouning and bu Lanshan.

Before leaving, he discussed with Zhao Xuanqing about how to develop the forces on the plateau.

The first thing they thought of was that they had to control the Dangxiang people who accounted for a large proportion of the population in this area. Once they were not well controlled, they raised their ambitions. I'm afraid it would be the end of Xixia's rebellion against song and founding the country in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Xuanqing's plan is to divide the tribes of the Dangxiang ethnic group, win over the weak and attack the strong.

On this basis, Wei Ran transformed Hu into Han. As long as everyone in Dangxiang began to speak Chinese, learn Han rites and practice farming customs, he would basically be no different from the Han people after three generations.

In addition, it is the operation of the silk road. Because the silk road is long and unsafe, Tu Qishi people and Huihe people have the habit of robbing merchants. Therefore, contact the Guiyi army in SHAGUA and anxidu protectors in the isolated western regions to form an alliance to protect their respective interests.

At this point, Huihe will become their great enemy. Since Li Chengye defeated the Tibetan Uighur allied forces, the Uighur tribal forces have suffered great losses and have been unable to gain a firm foothold in the highly competitive East.

Gradually retreated to the western regions, many Huihe tribes took the initiative to give up their Buddhist beliefs and convert to green religion after contacting the food culture. With the fanatical nature of religious belief, they have become more and more powerful in the western regions in recent years.

This time, yundanjienadu of Tubo attacked the border. The GUI Yi army did not attack Tubo from the western regions, which involved yundanjienadu's attention. The reason is that the Guiyi army is fighting against Huihe with all its strength in the face of the threat of Huihe forces.

Now that Yundan Jiena has been defeated, Zhao Hui intends to support the Guiyi army to the West and defeat Huihe who converted to green religion. Compared with Tubo, the Huihe army is not so powerful, and it is not difficult to defeat them. I believe Zhao Hui will triumph soon.

Wei Ran also learned from Zhao Xuanqing that Zhao Hui was brewing an internal reform in Liangzhou and Lanzhou recently, and wanted to gradually eliminate the mountain factions in the army and truly consolidate the foundation of Liangzhou Legion.

Wei Ran just felt that there was something wrong. The local giants in Liangzhou were deeply rooted, which was so easy to eliminate. Only when Liangzhou is invaded by other nationalities and the local powerful aristocrats are killed can order be rebuilt.

However, such an alien must be very powerful and unreasonable, otherwise the local giants will bow down regardless of shame, and can also keep their own foundation.

Zhao Hui didn't ask him to participate in this matter, so Wei Ran didn't intend to go directly to this muddy water. Instead, he returned to kuozhou as soon as possible and managed his own one-third of an mu of land. At the same time, he gradually extended his tentacles to Jiuzhou in Longyou. Wouldn't it be better to turn them into his own back garden.

Wei Ran returned to kuozhou. Unexpectedly, Li Guangsi came again. And learned about his father's recent situation from Li Guangsi.

At this time, Li Chengye fought three battles with Huangchao army in Huainan. He won three battles in a row, so that Huangchao lost his armor and fled all the way to the south of the Yangtze River.

Interestingly, Lei Gong cleaved tofu on Li Chengye's side, but the Huangchao rebels also cleaved tofu against the local troops in the south of Huainan river. They beat the officers and soldiers to lose their armor and quickly swept the people to expand their strength.

Due to the harsh administration of the Tang Dynasty, heavy taxes were imposed on the Jiangnan area, coupled with serious land annexation, there was a huge gap between the rich and the poor. There are few self-employed peasants among the people, and the land is either owned by big landlords or bureaucrats and rich gentry.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he did not abolish the taxes raised in order to increase military spending in the late years of the former Emperor, but built palaces and tombs, increasing the degree of excessive collection.

Among them, eunuchs are greedy. The tax increased by the imperial court may be one. After being dominated by eunuchs, it may become ten, and then be exploited by local tyrants, evil gentry and bureaucrats, and become twenty in the hands of the people, which exacerbates the contradiction between officials and the people.

For a time, even if Jiangnan Road is rich, the poor have no place to stand. Even if you compromise, sell yourself as a slave and become a tenant and dealer, life is not so easy.

In addition to carrying the debt of money, they often have to accept all kinds of exploitation. People have no freedom and no rights. Even whether their children's mother-in-law and aunt are their own depends on the face of the owner.

The people have suffered for a long time. Even if Huang Chao leads a defeated army, as long as he can defeat the local corrupt bureaucrats and army, a large number of people will join him. After that, naturally, he took the people to fight and eat local tyrants, setting off a bloody storm.

Even if Huang Chao was defeated by Li Chengye three times, his troops expanded to 400000, twice as much as when he was on Huainan road!

Although most of them are mobs, quantitative change will cause qualitative change. In particular, Huangchao does not work in production. Unlike Wang Xianzhi, he wants to occupy an area and develop it into a base area for long-term development.

He is going to eat and destroy wherever he goes! In this way, we have to fight often. Even if there are no more mobs with combat ability, there are always some strong people who become excellent soldiers through actual combat.

Huang Chao gathered these excellent soldiers together and became his own soldiers. With the robbed officers and soldiers' equipment, the combat effectiveness became stronger and stronger.

Seeing this, Li Chengye did not dare to attack easily. He could only recruit and train troops on the spot. At the same time, he wrote to the imperial court, asking to appoint honest officials to govern local government affairs and reduce taxes. Only by reducing class contradictions through Huairou means can we prevent the snowball expansion and development of Huang Chao.

Otherwise, the war will continue and there will be no hope of victory unless all the people are killed.
