On June 18, the second year of Dahan Dabao,

Zhang Wenbiao, the assassin of Hengzhou in the original Chu region, entered the dynasty and was attached, and the emperor personally received him in the court, and the Guiyi generals and officials headed by Zhang Wenbiao were attached.

And the late monarch of Shu who entered the dynasty earlier, Meng Chang, who was named the Duke of Anle by the emperor's decree, was accompanied by the court as the earliest prince of the dynasty.

Subsequently, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Gang and Yan Dayue, expressed strong congratulations to Zhang Wenbiao on his return to the court, and also had great expectations for the civil and military prospects of the Manchu Dynasty. In the end, it was decreed that Zhang Wenbiao would go south for Guiyi, and Xingwang Mansion would give the first Hou Mansion.

Zhang Wenbiao was grateful and took the initiative to present a map of the southern states of Chunan, and since then the southern states of southern Chu have been included in the territory of Lingnan. And in order to show his loyalty, Zhang Wenbiao sent his two daughters to the palace to serve the emperor.

This year, everything seemed to be going well in Lingnan, first Shu returned to the dynasty, and Lingnan successively sent generals and ministers to Shuzhong, preparing to take over and reorganize the territory of Shuzhong. Although it is not yet accurate, at least it has shown the general trend of Shuzhong's return to Han inside.

Then Zhang Wenbiao of Chu returned to the dynasty, which in later history, represented the inclusion of the entire southern Chu into the territory of Lingnan, which was a milestone in the northward expansion of Lingnan. Since then, Chudi Shuzhong has become a thoroughfare, and there is no obstacle in the world that hinders the footsteps of Lingnan.

Of course, the most important thing is that after the Lingnan Han occupied the geographical advantage of southern Chu, they strongly established a base for the Northern Naval Army on the Xiangjiang River. This model of developing based areas is naturally a method that Liu Jixing learned from later generations. Because the leaders of this era naturally cannot be like the later generations, so this method is the best.

Only by gaining a foothold in southern Chu can the myth of Wuling be broken and a favorable base for the north to enter the Central Plains can be laid. And with the territory of Chunan, it has been able to echo Shuzhong since then, because of this golden channel, it has formed the famous pattern of five generations and three parts of the world in later generations.

Since then, Lingnan has taken the west as a barrier, crossing Shuzhong from Chu, and crossing completely directly to the Central Plains. Although the Shu Road is as difficult as the Lingnan natural danger, with the vertical crossing of the Lingnan Mountain Troops, the Shu Road seems to have crossed from the beginning. In the following years, this road became a nightmare for the Central Plains, and it was also the biggest advantage of the three-point world.

Li Yu, who later became the monarch of the Tang State, all lamented that because Lingnan had this path, it was more threatening than the Jiangbei of the Central Plains. Later, the Tang State was able to return to the country, and the base established by Lingnan in southern Chu at this time can be said to have a great relationship.

Of course, at this time, due to the underdevelopment of information and the vigilance between the separatists in various places, this kind of major news could not be spread quickly. Such a major event happened in Lingnan that it was impossible to obtain such information in a short period of time.

And Liu Jixing took advantage of this time difference to quickly react to his troops. At the same time, it also intensified the propaganda of the secret party in various places, and even constantly concocted various incidents, increasing the internal pressure of the separatist forces in various places, so that the various local forces in Lingnan could quickly gain a foothold.

With the return of Zhang Wenbiao to the dynasty, Lingnan's northward advance was no longer barrier-free, and Liu Jixing accelerated the dispatch of newly educated generals to build a large number of military forces along Yongzhou and Hengzhou to consolidate Lingnan's base in southern Chu. The base area bounded by Wuling has become a powerful barrier for the Lingnan Han to enter the Central Plains in the north.

Lingnan even took Pan Chongche, the former deputy marshal of the Shaozhou soldiers and horses, as the commander of the northern camp, He Guo, as the deputy envoy, and vigorously summoned the displaced people as soldiers, and established the Chudi Volunteer Army, which drilled day and night to deploy defenses in an attempt to advance northward.

At the same time, Lingnan even announced a shocking news to the world, that is, Guo Jing, the king of Xiangxi in Chu, was actually the envoy of Lingnan Northwest Road. This time, he was appointed by the emperor as the envoy of the Southern Chu Festival, and his soldiers were appointed as the first regiment of the Great Han Chudi Volunteer Army, and the commander of any regiment of Guo Jing.

At this point, there was no need for Lingnan to conceal it, and through Guo Jing of Chudi, he personally sent a letter to Zhou Xingfeng, the envoy of Langzhou Jiedu, hoping that he would become the vanguard of his northward advance. If Zhou Xingfeng agrees, the imperial court will appoint him as the commander of the Second Regiment of the Great Han Chudi Volunteer Army, and at the same time add the envoy of the Northern Chu Festival.

Although I don't know what kind of reaction Zhou Xingfeng will have when he receives Liu Jixing's letter, at least after the person who sent the letter knows the news, he can't sleep at all when he is excited.

Subsequently, the garrison headed by Daozhou, Chenzhou, and Guiyang Jian became the base for Lingnan's northward defense, and a steady stream of Lingnan soldiers moved here. It is also a large number of military and civilian people to reclaim, while the military and civilians build together, in a short period of time to build several places of copper and iron walls, while vigorously developing production, to promote local development.

Although there were a few people who objected, they could not stop Liu Jixing's footsteps. Under the vigorous propaganda of the secret party propagandists, Liu Jixing is gradually portrayed as a saint, a rare Ming monarch throughout the ages.

However, Liu Jixing intended to make Chunan develop rapidly, because in later generations, this is indeed the land of fish and rice. It's just that after the horses fought for the groove, Chu Di was already devastated. Ten rooms and nine emptiness, after this rapid development, in a short period of time became the Jiangnan of Chudi.

Although everything was carried out in a situation where it was difficult for outsiders to know immediately, with the orderly layout of Lingnan, it all seemed to pay off quickly.

What is happening in the outside world, few people in Lingnan know. But what happened in Lingnan, with the spread of caravans in various places and the layout of Lingnan in Chu, it has gradually mastered a large area of land in Shuzhong, but it is becoming known to the entire Central Plains more and more quickly.

At the same time, at the noon gate of the Han Palace in Lingnan Xingwangfu, since the beginning of Dabao, several beheadings of corrupt officials and corrupt officials were held, and the day was full of blood again. Because on this day, outside the noon gate, the imperial court carried out the first execution in history!

And the people who were executed this time were Xiao Yuan, the former commander of the right tooth of the West Gate of the Great Han Kingdom, and Zhao Yuan, the county lieutenant of Bao'an County under the jurisdiction of the Xingwang Mansion.

One is neither high nor low, and the other is a principal official belonging to the county under the jurisdiction of the capital. The common feature is that the officials of the imperial court committed crimes that violated the law, and they extorted the righteous officials of the imperial court.

I don't know if this is the sorrow of two people, or the honor of two people.

Because the positions of the two people in Dahan are really not too high, but because of this incident, it has become one of the most famous news in the second year of Dabao.

Especially in this era of the proliferation of court officials, the two of them are not even known to many people. But the crimes they committed, and the punishment they finally enjoyed, were chopped by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Gang, himself!

As a result, the Lingnan Han Kingdom announced to the world that the subjects of the Great Han Kingdom must abide by the law, otherwise no matter where you are, you will be punished by the law!
