On the seventh day of August in the first year of Han Jianxing, Tian Xin came to Luomen, an important passage at the junction of Tianshui and Longxi.

Inspecting the westernmost target of this trip, Tian Xin began to divide the map, preparing to respond to the opinions of the people and redivide the administrative geography, which had to consider and measure various geographical factors, which was difficult to handle.

In terms of climate, after passing the west of Longshan, it can be said that the climate is changeable...... It's warmer than you think, and the difference in climate is mainly in the temperature difference, not the rainfall.

Often separated by a mountain, this side of the mountain is humid and stuffy, and the other side of the mountain is damp and cold.

In terms of altitude, Longxi County is higher than Tianshui County, so the climate difference in Longxi County is greater, and the climate difference in the mountainous areas is large, indicating that the climate is unstable as a whole.

A hailstorm in the summer can directly bald the fields and crops...... Then the sun is shining, this is the climate of Longxi.

Therefore, the agricultural ecology of Longxi is fragile, and all Han and Hu are half-cultivated and half-pastoral, in order to resist the agricultural extinction brought about by extreme climate.

And Tianshui can't be better than it, there is such a group of hungry neighbors who may be extinct at any time due to natural disasters, Tianshui is strong and naturally full of martial virtues, mixed with the counties of Liangzhou, there are indeed geographical conditions to attack Guanzhong and fight a wave.

Now there is an argument that Tianshui is to be classified into Guanzhong, that is, under the rule of the Guanzhong Governor, and become a part of the division.

Tianshui, Hanshui also; In the north of Hanzhong, it can be renamed Hanyang County, and this important town and famous county in the east of Liangzhou can be classified as Sili, which is not bizarre no matter how you look at it.

Tianshui's economy, products, and manpower are currently the crown of Liangzhou, which can be compared with Guanzhong; On the occasion of the two Han Dynasty, the eastern part of Liangzhou was headed by Tianshui, and the western part of Liangzhou was headed by Wuwei, which was the opposite pole of the two poles.

But the problem is also obvious, after the loss of Tianshui, the economic and political center of Liangzhou can only be in Wuwei, which is too far away from Guanzhong to exert influence.

Unlike the Han Dynasty, Guanzhong influenced Tianshui, and Tianshui formed a pole in Liangzhou to share and lower the cohesion and influence of Wuwei.

Geographically, Tianshui must remain in Liangzhou, unless Liangzhou is to be divided into two.

There are established factors that Tianshui belongs to Yongzhou of Wei State, and Tianshui Shimin has long been established and subordinate to the Yongzhou Department, and they are also accustomed and eager to be integrated with the new Sizhou Department, and do not want to be subordinate to the Liangzhou Department anymore.

Even if it is the pole and core of the eastern part of Liangzhou, the Tianshui clan and the people want to live in the royal territory of Jinai and enjoy the first-class treatment of the empire.

At least, according to the three mutual laws of the Later Han Dynasty, there is not so much evasion when officials from the department are transferred to their posts.

This is rather a phoenix tail, not a chicken head.

Tianshui Shimin is so willing, and Guanzhong is also inclined to pull Tianshui into the gang; Take a look at the surroundings of Guanzhong, that is, Tianshui is an important grain-producing area, with sufficient grain, flat land, and no lack of precipitation, so it is also an extremely important horse breeding land.

The most suitable for raising horses is still Longxi County, plus the grain production of Tianshui County...... Using this grain to feed horses can breed the world's top war horses; The other two horse farms of the same grade are in the Shandan Military Horse Farm in the west corridor of the Zhangye River, where grain is produced in addition to aquatic grass; The other is in the Hetao, where the water and grass are fertile, and this place can also produce food.

Water, grass and grain are the necessary conditions for large-scale breeding of war horses.

But the current public opinion and popular sentiment seem to have intentionally or unintentionally separated Longxi County from Tianshui County, so that Tianshui County was merged into Guanzhong and became a part of Sizhou. And Longxi is still the Longxi of Liangzhou...... It's a bit of a bully for honest people.

During this inspection of Tianshui, Tianshui Shimin's attitude was blazing, which made Tian Xin intuitively feel the mind of Tianshui Shimin.

Discussing the expansion of Sizhou, the division of Liangzhou, and the merger of states, and the re-establishment of another state in the north of Guanzhong became a major headache for his ministers to discuss.

For example, the famous Shangjun is in the north of Guanzhong, is this a return to Liangzhou, or a merger state?

The northern part of Guanzhong is divided into two, with Anding County and Beidi County in Liangzhou; Then there are the upper counties and Xihe counties of the merged states.

Don't look at the "Three Kingdoms" games in the past dynasties, there are only a few cities or a city, in the territory of the Later Han Dynasty, the state is a very large state, and the military status is also very important.

Merge means merger and consolidation, and you can imagine how big this state is.

Liangzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou are the three major border states, each representing a border army group.

If you want to divide Liangzhou and merge Tianshui County, which is the essence of the east, into Sizhou, then you can simply cut off the connection between Liangzhou and Yizhou directly......

Anyway, the war horses in Liangzhou, the imperial court can only stare at it dryly; The purchase of war horses from Liangzhou and their transportation to the Kwantung front cost manpower and material resources, as well as the normal death of horses on long journeys...... Hardly possible.

Therefore, cutting off the contact between Liangzhou and Yizhou did not have a great impact on the imperial court.

The new Liangzhou territory should be composed of the four counties of Hexi, Jincheng County, and Xining County, with Wuwei County as the state governance and core.

Tianshui County in the eastern part of Liangzhou was restored to Hanyang County and incorporated into Sizhou; Anding County and Beidi County in the north, plus Shangjun, Xihe County, Wuyuan County, and Shuofang County in the north form a new border state, or Beizhou, or Xiazhou.

In order to cut off the connection between Yizhou and Liangzhou, a new state was formed with Longxi County, Wudu County, Hanzhong County, and Hanxing County...... In the process, Yizhou was stripped of control over Hanzhong.

The scope of his own management is large, although the prime minister is only in charge of one Yizhou, but this Yizhou is really big.

According to various population estimates, the population under his rule is about eight million, and the prime minister has four million; Its 8 million population is also divided into three large areas, which are not connected like Yizhou.

In terms of property, the prime minister currently holds the richest land in the world; Compared with Yizhou, the materials produced in Nanyang can barely be used for their own use. Unlike the prime minister, in addition to maintaining the rear army, the Yizhou army, and the Hanzhong army, he can also transport grain to Jiangdu and share the pressure of raising the army for the imperial court.

Therefore, Yizhou must be gradually decomposed, and a state with Hanzhong as the core in the north must be established; In the east, a state was established with Ba County as the core; The South Central region is so big, and it is normal to divide into three states.

Counting Yizhou, which has shrunk after the split, this Yizhou now, according to Tian Xin's plan, will be divided into six and completely shattered.

Of course, this is ideal; Even if he handed over Nanyang to the imperial court, the imperial court would not agree to split Yizhou. Not to mention that it is divided into six, it is divided into three, and it is impossible to pass.

Therefore, this is the bargaining chip.

Tianshui County itself wants to be incorporated into Sizhou, and Longxi County, Hanzhong County, Hanxing County, and Wudu County also want to be incorporated into Sizhou...... It directly borders Yizhou and garrisons in Hanzhong, which is a necessary part of making peace with the prime minister.

I can't let the prime minister pinch his lifeline, he wants to choke the throat of Yizhou Haoqiang, so that they don't dare to encourage the prime minister to go to war.

After all, what he paid was Nanyang, which can be called the land of kings, and no matter how much bargaining chips he asked, he should be.

If you don't give it to Nanyang, then the imperial court won't want to recover the eastern capital Luoyang, and don't think about looking forward to Hebei.

Whether Nanyang can make a smooth transition in the future is directly related to whether a civil war breaks out.

Therefore, we must not be confused by a Tianshui County in the current public opinion, and we must consider the overall situation around Nanyang.

Otherwise, I will now merge Tianshui into Sizhou, and then set up a Xia Zhou and Beizhou...... In the eyes of the imperial court, this is the imperial court taking the initiative to give in and fulfill itself; Then when the two years after tomorrow to negotiate the delivery of Nanyang, it is reasonable that he should take a step back.

It's all a step back, and the impact of the gap is huge.

Nanyang is in his hand, and his hand is on the collar of the Jiangdu Imperial Court, and he can choke the throat of the imperial court at any time...... This is the biggest confidence that I believe that the imperial court will not dare to break up.

In exchange, he must grasp another key point of the imperial court, that is, Yizhou.

As long as Hanzhong is in hand, Yizhou Haoqiang must think carefully about the consequences before doing things.

Straightened out his thoughts, and then received the "Report on the Handling of the Mutiny of the Friendly Forces in Shaanxi and Tianjin" jointly played by Yu Shifang and Deng Ai...... told him very directly that the human and material evidence was complete, and the case had been decided.

In this regard, Tian Xin also changed hands and sent someone to Jiangdu.

I didn't forget to copy a copy and sent a copy to the prime minister...... I'm sorry, but this part of the South Middle School soldiers needs a period of labor reform and intensive study.
