Datang: After signing for ten years, I brought Li two kinds of potatoes

Chapter 553 My reborn parents!

Chapter 553 My reborn parents!

In the frontier base of Tubo, Li Hao could not help showing a smile as he watched the sand table in front of him move continuously.

In just a few days, all the territory of Tubo near Nanzhao has fallen into Li Hao's territory, since Yanhe has also been completely within Li Hao's sphere of influence.

A large number of original residents of Tubo became Li Hao's captives and joined a new wave of major infrastructure projects, among which the Chidao City Wall was impressively included.

After these plans are completed, Tubo will no longer want to take these territories back. With these facilities, Li Hao only needs a small amount of troops to defend them, without spending too much power at all.

What's more, the two major armies are guarding here now, unless Songtsan Gampo's million-strong army is here to fight hard, there may be a chance.

But behind the big construction, there are also a lot of troubles.

"My lord, now our cement line is in an emergency, and the pig iron and steel bars also need to be transported long distances. The consumption is really too much, and the gain is not worth the loss." Huang Yueying on the side said with a face full of tears.

He also doesn't know why his lord likes infrastructure construction. Every time he conquers a place, he will build city roads and so on. He is simply an infrastructure madman.

The consequences of such crazy infrastructure construction are also obvious, that is, there is a shortage of various resources, and they need to be mobilized from Taoyuan Country to Chenla. This is simply too much manpower and material resources.

For example, now, cement is not enough.

Li Hao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Daxing Infrastructure would be so exaggerated, causing a shortage of cement.

But think about it, this cement needs to be mobilized from the remote areas of Nanzhao, which is really a waste of manpower and material resources, and the consumption will be huge.

Just as he was about to answer Huang Yueying's words, Hao Zhao on the side already spoke.

"Haha, Secretary Huang is wrong. My lord's actions seem to be a waste of energy, but they are actually a strategy that benefits the country and the people." Hao Zhao said solemnly:

Hearing his words, the corner of Li Hao's mouth twitched, this guy actually knows how to flatter.

"How should I say it?" Huang Yueying also knew it was beneficial, but Hao Zhao's statement was a bit exaggerated.

Hao Zhao nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Everywhere my lord goes, he builds so-called roads, which are actually the roads used in the Qin Shihuang period, which are convenient for transporting food and supplies, and more convenient for transporting troops to support in wartime."

"That makes sense, what else?"

"In addition, my lord recruited a large number of captives to build the Great Wall of the city. It did not consume domestic labor force at all, but used these captives, so it did not affect domestic agricultural production or the like. Instead, these captive labor forces were fully utilized and consumed. The physical strength makes them unable to resist."

Huang Yueying nodded, this also makes sense.

"And the last point is the most important point. These cities are a circle drawn by the lord to completely break their way of thinking and way of life, and to build a new city."

"However, this city belongs to our lord! Their thinking and their way of life must follow our lord's mind."

Hao Zhao was very excited. His master is really wise. In comparison, such a small loss is nothing, it is simply negligible.

Li Hao glanced at him and said with a smile, "Brother Hao Zhao, you really win my heart!"

Looking at Hao Zhao, Li Hao was full of appreciation. This is the benefit of having a smart subordinate.

Li Hao himself didn't expect so many benefits, but it was purely to use the city to facilitate the management of these captives, so that if they made trouble, they would just be locked up and wiped out.

If there were no such walls, once you sent troops to suppress them, the bastard would run away, and you would have to chase them and fight them.

This chasing and hitting will cause a big loss.

Now that there is a city wall, no matter how far you can run, even if I tell you to run, you will not be able to run a war horse.

And once their lives are fixed, all assets will be fixed in this city.If they drag their families along like this, if they want to really make trouble, they have to weigh it.

And at critical moments, it can also be used to defend against the enemy, which is very cost-effective.

What this infrastructure needs most is manpower, and this is what Li Hao lacks most now. He has [-] prisoners of the Tubo regular army in his hands, as well as a large number of Tubo civilians and Pyu prisoners of war.

These people add up to more than [-] people. If they are not used, it will be a waste of food, which is just used to build these things.

In addition, the so-called consumed resources are even simpler.

Now the entire northwest region is Li Hao's own, and these resources are simply taken for nothing, and it doesn't cost much at all.

It doesn't cost much, and it can do great things, so there is no reason not to do it.

But I didn't expect Hao Zhao to think of so many benefits for me at once, which is really difficult.

The more I think about it, the more awesome I am, to be so great.

However, there is one more important benefit that Hao Zhao did not mention, that is, the issue of national boundaries, for example, the Great Wall during the Qin Dynasty was a benchmark.

Don't say anything, the inside of the Great Wall is ours.

Now Li Hao is also saying the same thing. Everything inside the Great Wall is mine.

He nodded appreciatively, and said in a deep voice: "Needless to say about this matter, the following infrastructure construction is already underway. If there is not enough cement, a cement plant will be built. However, this cement plant must be strictly prevented from leaking, and at the same time, attention must also be paid to security issues. .”

Many waters flow through the Tubo area. If it is polluted by the cement factory, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the people downstream will suffer.

So this thing must be cautious and choose a place that is a bit biased.

"Don't worry, my lord. Our people have already started surveying. There will be more than 20 temporary cement plants built soon. At that time, there is no need to worry about the lack of cement. Several other steel plants have also started construction. I believe that the steel plant here will soon Don't worry anymore."

Li Yu on the side said solemnly.

As the deputy of the Engineering Department of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, he was called in a few days ago. Seeing the country that the Metropolitan Governor has conquered, he was astonished and wished he could kneel down for Li Hao.

After knowing Li Hao's request, he agreed without hesitation, and even mobilized all of his subordinates to carry out investigations, just to not disappoint his governor.

Now he has no second thoughts, Li Hao is the god in his heart.

Li Hao nodded and said in admiration, "Li Yu, I did not misunderstand you. You are an underestimated talent. I am very relieved to have you in charge of the engineering infrastructure here."

Hearing Li Hao's words, Li Yu was overjoyed. He didn't expect that his governor would value him so much and praise him in front of so many people. Thinking about it, he was a little excited and a little shy.

"Thank you for your appreciation. Without the great governor, I, Li Yu, would be nothing more than a turkey. I would never have achieved what I am today. The great governor is my Bole, my reborn parents!"

Li Yu couldn't help but said loudly.

He said this sincerely, without any lies.

Now every night, he would think of all the past, and he couldn't help laughing.In the past, I fought non-stop with others for a little bit of power and small interests, like picking up gold ingots.

Looking back now, that was downright stupid.

After following the chief governor, I just realized what a frog at the bottom of a well is, and now I am the right way.
