Chapter Ninety-Seven, the First Map

"Huh! …… With retreat as advance, virtual for real, a big fire was put into place, and the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military games were turned around, and the prime minister really had good means, and the way of power and scheming was cultivated! ”

Xiliang-Shandan Ranch, Xiao Yi couldn't help but give a thumbs up after reading the urgent report sent by Xuchang-traitorous men in troubled times, worthy of their reputation!

As a crossing clan, Xiao Yi is extremely arrogant in his bones, and he also has an ambition in his chest, the heroes of the Quartet, in his eyes, are just a group of dolls, who can be at the mercy of whatever he wants, that is a kind of arrogance in the depths of the soul, this world - only me, but Cao Cao is an exception!

No matter how much he has a good reputation, martial arts, strategy, literary style, and ...... means, Cao Cao has a very deep attainment, and it is really a powerful role of 'out for the general, into the phase, draw the sword and cut people, and write poetry', the ancients said: 'There will be a king in five hundred years', there is no doubt that Cao Cao is the king of this era, commanding the world, and knowing everything!

It is this kind of admiration from the bottom of his heart that Xiao Yi is willing to use it, for the hegemony of the traitorous male, he fought in the south and the north, and killed in the east and west, but this kind of loyalty is only to Cao Cao himself, not to the Cao family, it is a limited loyalty!

In short, Xiao Yi's life creed is: 'If you can supplement it, you will be supplemented, if it is not replaced', after Cao Cao, if the heir is not good enough, or if it is not as good as himself, Xiao Yi does not mind personally commanding the power of the world, as for the Cao family, it is enough for them to be glorious for generations!

However, Cao Cao is now in full swing, with at least twenty years to live, Xiao Yi will put away his careful thinking and continue to be a capable minister, appeasing the people internally, sweeping away the princes, fighting and killing people externally, and expanding the territory!

Picturesque rivers and mountains, capable people live in it - this is the right way in the world!

…………………………………………………………………………………………

After more than a month of painstaking operation, Shandan Ranch has begun to take shape, millions of horses, cattle and sheep, camels have been driven over, and experienced herdsmen have been selected to take care of these treasures, the 'Champion City' has been renovated, and the outer city has been built, the area has expanded six times, and the 'Huqiang Zhonglang General' - Yan Ming led 10,000 elite soldiers to garrison to ensure the safety of the ranch!

Some people have estimated that according to the current scale, as long as there is no major disaster, 50,000 war horses, 200,000 cattle and sheep can be produced every year, as well as a certain amount of cowhides, horns, tendons, and tails...... and other strategic materials, this number is quite considerable, enough to make the princes of the world red, but no, Xiao Yi is still not very satisfied, in a word-the ranch is too small!

Shandan Ranch spans three counties and six counties, occupying the most fertile water and grassland in the north of Xiliang, such a scale and production are enough to supplement the consumption of the civil war, but if the Han family wants to expand its territory, it needs more war horses and materials, and it also needs a larger area of pasture!

In addition, Xiao Yi has more far-reaching considerations, he led the army to expand the territory and occupy the living space for future generations, to make an analogy, this is like building a house, if the area is too small and the decoration is poor, it is a broken grass shed, leaking rain on all sides, has no value, and future generations will definitely not manage it carefully, maybe it will be thrown to the barbarians that day!

Historically, the east to the black water, the north to the desert, the west to the green mountains, the south through the sand ......, have left the footprints of the Han army, but after a walk, the real income of the territory is very little, because the place is barren, the production materials are limited, the country can not get any benefits, in vain consumption of national strength, in the end can only discard things!

On the other hand, if you occupy a large piece of land, manage it well, and turn it into fertile land with rich products, it is equivalent to leaving a set of luxury villas, and future generations will definitely hold it firmly in their hands.

Therefore, Xiao Yi wants to expand the scale of Shandan Ranch, and the land of the surrounding four counties and more than a dozen counties will be included and turned into a super-large ranch.

Second, such a treasure land, future generations will firmly defend it, if anyone discards it, they will become sinners through the ages, and the people of the world will not beat you to death, but will also scold you to death!

However, there are some 'weeds' in this land, and if you want to turn it into a good field for the Han family, you have to pull them out!

"Qiyu Grand Governor, the chiefs of the surrounding departments have been ordered to come and are waiting outside the tent!"

"Banquet - invited!"

"No!"

While speaking, the Chinese officer Xiaobin led in dozens of indigenous chiefs wearing animal skins, hair like grass, and full of fishy smells, including Hu people, Yueshi people, Huns, Wusun people, and ......some small ethnic groups who couldn't be named!

Half a month ago, Xiao Yi passed down a military order, and the tribal chiefs within a radius of 2,000 miles all came to the army to discuss matters, and those who did not obey the order were killed!

"Wild man outside the Cypriot...... Visit the Governor of the Western Empire of the Han Dynasty! ”

With a burst of broken Chinese, dozens of chiefs knelt on the ground and bowed to worship, and it can be seen from their neat movements that they must have practiced many times, they are really well-behaved and sensible!

If you are not well-behaved, you can't do it, since the Han army marched westward, subdued the Qiang people, the Tu clan, and the two tribes, killing the heads of the people, and the blood flowed like a river, all the tribes in Xiliang were frightened, for fear that the next one would be their turn, and when they heard the summons, they came day and night, and the horse's legs were broken several times, for fear of being a little late, which made the governor unhappy!

"No courtesy...... Sit down, have the chiefs of all the tribes arrived? "Bow first and then soldier, the Han tradition, Xiao Yi warmly received the chiefs and gave them wine and food!

"Back to the Grand Governor, the Xiongnu White Aries and the Ghost Chiefs did not come!" Xiaobin took out the roster, counted the number of people, and bowed down to report!

"Pass the order - the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry will be dispatched, the two parts will be bloodied, and they will be killed, and the chieftain will bring it back to me!" Xiao Yi's expression remained unchanged, and between his words, it was like preparing to crush two ants!

"No!"

A moment later, with the sound of horns, a group of Xuanjia iron cavalry rushed out of the camp, holding high the battle flag, brandishing the saber, and swept away in the northwest direction......

"The Governor of the Great Metropolis is wise and martial - invincible in the world!"

In the snap of a finger, the two tribes were wiped out, the chiefs were so frightened that their faces were colorless, they had seen the domineering, they had never seen such a domineering, they all said that 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' was murderous, and it really lived up to its reputation, fortunately they were smart and came early, otherwise, it ......would

"I invite you to come today, there is a major matter to discuss - to determine the boundary and resolve the dispute!" Xiao Yi waved his hand, and the soldiers raised a huge map, looking at the mountains and rivers on it, it seemed to be a map of Xiliang......

However, this map is a little strange, the mountains and rivers on it are undoubtedly Xiliang, but compared with the previous Han map, there are some differences, to be precise, it is a little bigger, of course, it is not a lot, it is five or six times the appearance!

Let's put it this way, except for the eastern border, the north, west, and south directions, all of which have expanded greatly outward, especially in the west, there is no boundary line at all, and it has been marked to the end, in addition, the map is densely packed with Chinese characters, what Hancheng, Hanhe, Hanshan, Xiaojiagou, Wuchou Ling......, as if the whole land is the territory of the Han family!

This is a little trick that Xiao Yi plays, if you want to occupy a piece of land, you must first give the mountains and rivers a Chinese name, if you are famous, you will be real, and slowly infiltrate, and over time, the land will become your own!

A few years later, even if there was a territorial dispute, the descendants of the Han family could confidently say, "This is our land, and there is a place name to prove it!" ”

Looking at the marks on the map, the chiefs all grinned, they were illiterate, but they could understand this map, the reason is very simple, the grasslands, rivers, mountains and ......rivers where their tribe lived, all on it, their own family must recognize it!

"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, it is not the king's ministers, this is the famous words of the first saint, ancient and modern ......, but for a long time, the Xiliang border has been chaotic, the disputes between the various departments are continuous, and the swords and soldiers are everywhere, and the suffering is unspeakable......

The governor of Pontus was ordered to march west to pacify the people, how could he sit idly by, and then the border line was redrawn, and from then on, everyone guarded their territory, did not invade each other, and lived and worked in peace and contentment, isn't it beautiful! ”

While speaking, Xiao Yi pointed to the map and patted his chest again, thinking that he had done a great deed, but unfortunately, there are no titles such as 'Five Good Youths' and '38 Red Flag Bearers' in this era, otherwise he would definitely win a prize!

"Wow! …… Mountain gods, river gods, cow gods, horse gods, dog gods, ......"

Looking at the map, the chiefs chanted all kinds of gods, and their hearts were cold, historically, the Han family often set boundaries and mediate disputes, which is also a good thing for the surrounding tribes!

But the method of the governor is too domineering, just like a group of wild wolves caught their prey, because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, they tore each other up, at this time, a strong lion came, in the name of mediating disputes, monopolized the prey, so that the wild wolves did not have to fight, but they would starve to death!

"Qiyu Dadu, this is the ancestral water meadow of our Wusun people, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once decreed, the descendants multiplied, and the hereditary repudiation ......"

A chieftain with a white beard stood up, pointed to a place marked 'Xiao Jiawa' on the map, and whispered in the most humble tone, hoping to keep his homeland!

"Hehe, Pontus may have drawn the wrong border, sorry...... Come on, Chief Wusun is drunk, help him down and rest! ”

In the face of other people's corrections, Xiao Yi sincerely admitted his mistakes, saying that he would definitely correct them, and he cared about the other party's body, which can be described as extremely considerate and showed the demeanor of a Han official!

"Brush! …… Wipe! ”

Hearing the order, several wolf-like soldiers rushed up, and without saying a word, dragged Chief Wusun out, and then, a miserable scream sounded outside the tent, and there was no sound anymore!

"Chiefs, the Pontus is not good at drawing, if there is any mistake, please correct it!"

"Don't dare...... The Governor is wise and wise, how can he make a mistake, and even if he is wrong, it is the villains who have misremembered the boundary......"

Man is a wolf, I am a lamb, in the face of absolute force, submission is the only choice, looking at the map, the chiefs have only one sentence in their hearts...... "Heaven descends to kill God, and the land of Xiliang belongs to the Han family!" ”
