He Long understood the truth. Since ancient times, such tricks have been common, and of course they are generally reflected in the empty salary. The gentry of the Wei and Jin Dynasties were experts with hidden populations, and Sima Ji estimated that at least one-third of the population was not in the hands of the court.

He Long could see through the ears and eyes, thinking that Sima Ji was thinking for his own sake. If there was no war in peace, the population of Pingzhou would always decrease, which was indeed difficult to explain in front of the court. It was impossible to say that the blame was not conducive to the calculation of credit.

"Pingzhou is remote, so we will think of a solution ourselves. Since ancient times, border areas have been nothing more than military settlement and use foreign enemies to gain the attention of the court. This is the value of me, General Zhendong and you, the Dongyi Captain. If there is no war, we will be forgotten soon." Sima Ji told He Long tactfully that the meaning of the words is four words, to raise the enemy and respect yourself.

He Long nodded frequently, and suddenly he felt that although the King of Yan was not old, he knew how to be sympathetic to the people. He was considering the soldiers of Pingzhou and also considering him as the Dongyi Captain.

That was natural, after all, this was his only military force. In fact, although Sima Ji governed a large state with the smallest population in the Jin Dynasty, it was not completely unhealthy. At least Pingzhou and Youzhou were next to each other. If they governed Qingzhou like the former king Sima Ji, it would be inconvenient to dispatch troops when they really needed it.

Furthermore, Pingzhou is large after all, and although the climate is a bit unfriendly to the Jin Dynasty, it is not a problem for him.

"We must understand Goguryeo's background clearly, and we must thoroughly investigate Pingzhou's household registration. Both of these are very important!"

Sima Ji Dundun taught that Pingzhou is so large that it is only 18,000 households. There must be a hidden population. Since he is now in Pingzhou's military, he must manage it well. Although Pingzhou was in the Jin Dynasty, it was just a place to exil prisoners.

He Long can understand that he was aware of the household registration, but he couldn't understand that he treated Goguryeo so seriously. In his eyes, Goguryeo was just a defeated general and was not a strong enemy at all. "The general is so serious that people who don't know think Goguryeo is stronger than the Huns back then."

"One time and another time, the Huns were grinding arrows with bones." Sima Ji smiled. Why did the Chinese history become more and more difficult to deal with these nomadic fishing and hunting as they grow later? Isn't that very simple, and people are also learning.

In the Warring States Period, Li Mu only relied on the State of Zhao, one of the seven heroes, and beat the Huns to the point of not daring to go south. The Han Dynasty pretended to be a grandson for a long time before Emperor Wu of Han defeated the Huns. Can it be said that Zhao State is stronger than the Han Dynasty? The Huns have become stronger.

These tribes around the Jin Dynasty were no longer the Huns who relied on the Western Regions when they were even metallurgy.

"Anyway, I want you to understand the situation in Goguryeo. Then it will be our chance to make achievements." Sima Ji stood up and said, "I will check the arrangements of the military camp in two days, you can prepare."

Sima Ji still understands the Northeast, which is the coldest place in the same latitude in the world. This creates a problem. In ancient China, the population here was not even comparable to that of the nomadic peoples on the Mongolian Plateau.

With so few people, let alone the so-called collective creativity. Sima Ji tried his best to help the soldiers here take root. This was a great contribution to China, and some habits must be changed to adapt to the climate here.

When people arrive in a new place, they are adapting to the local environment, not the local environment adapting to them. If the barbarians enter China, then they will be Chinese. If the Chinese enter barbarians, then they will be barbarians. This is the reason. When the Jin Dynasty migrated to the Mongolian Plateau, the Jin Dynasty people could not change the local habit of grazing. They would only become nomadic peoples speaking Central Plains, wearing sheepskin and leather boots...

Sima Ji felt that the habit of lying on the ground must be changed. In the climate of Pingzhou, the habit of lying on the ground is to be dying without knowing it. Only by sleeping on the bed in summer and sleeping on the kang in winter can we adapt to the climate here.

"For some soldiers' barracks, you can find some terrain with mountains on both sides and rivers in the middle. In this way, you can avoid strong winds in winter!" This terrain is called two mountains and one ditch, and the hidden dangers are floods and earthquakes. However, based on Sima Ji's understanding of the climate in the northeast, the northeast is not the southwest, and the number of earthquakes is actually very rare, and the precipitation is not so exaggerated.

How to arrange barracks, how to choose military camp locations, and how to avoid the cold, Sima Ji's instructions surprised He Long. Unexpectedly, the first time the King of Yan came to Pingzhou, it seemed that he knew everything very well, and seemed to have lived here for many years.

"There are many fur goods in Pingzhou, don't be obsessed with wearing them. Everything is based on the protection of health." King Yan, dressed in a bandit in the old Northeast China, exclaimed. His cotton has not been planted yet, so he can't help for the time being.

"After the spring plow next year, I will re-arrange it as I said. I will come again after the autumn harvest. After the suppression of thieves in Youzhou, the whole environment will be clear. Since I am the general of Zhendong, I will ensure peace and give the people of Pingzhou a peaceful era."

The King of Yan didn't think he was bragging. Isn't it just that he could not starve to death in the peaceful and prosperous times? He could achieve this standard. But he forgot that his image at this time was more like a bandit than the bandits of the Jin Dynasty. He was also a beard born and raised in the northeast.

"The general works hard for the people, He Long admires him!" He Long said with conscience.

"It's all a matter of duty!" Sima Ji raised his head slightly and accepted the compliment from the Dongyi Captain, although his original intention was to fill the Youzhou prison and find more labor force to squeeze.

If it weren't for the inappropriateness, he would have wanted to raise silkworms in Pingzhou. All the important commercial items in the Jin Dynasty were in the north, and even raising silkworms was common sense in this era.

For the first time, Sima Ji felt that he was in power in the face of thousands of soldiers from the Dongyi School Guard Mansion. He even didn't want to leave anymore. He finally made up his mind. After all, when he first came out, he was sure that he would not just come to the Dongyi School Guard Mansion. He would also go to Murong to take a look.

Once again, the wheels were replaced by sleds, and King Yan, who pretended to be Santa Claus, also used his position to take the 500-Pingzhou soldiers to the road. At this time, the Murong family was not the strongest among the Xianbei tribes. Both the Duan tribe and the Yuwen tribe were stronger than the Murong family, but Murong Li was obviously one level higher than the other two leaders.

"Is Murong a little hasty when you go?" It was not until you were on the road for a long time that Zhang Da persuaded Sima Ji to go back. He felt that it was still a bit dangerous to leave the territory of the Jin Dynasty.
