The situation in Shuchuan is already a bit difficult to return.

At this time, only Liu Bei can regain his strength, and then reorganize the dynasty, so that he can recover again.

Historically, Liu Bei also wanted to live this comfortable life.

An old man, when he meets a young beauty, tries himself.

Historically, he was obsessed with Sun Shangxiang's skirt and refused to come back in Jiangdong, and later Guan Yu went to bring Liu Bei back. (Romance, don't look at the evidence.) ）

"Alas~"

Under the moonlight, this Pang Tong was extremely emotional.

He has always been unwilling to be subservient, not that he is unwilling to become a courtier.

It's that he is unwilling to have someone smarter and more talented than him.

He has known Zhuge Liang for a long time, and he will choose Liu Bei, just to make a miracle and become famous through the ages.

At the beginning, there were still a few princes in the world, and it was difficult to say who would kill the deer.

How did he know that he helped Liu Bei's career rise rapidly, and then the monarch and ministers worked hard in Shuchuan and continued to grow.

Give him a few more years, and he will be able to go out with an army.

However, the situation is changing too quickly.

Zhang Yu quickly pacified several princes.

"Alas~"

Pang Tong sighed again.

Pang Tong was very sad, he knew a little about the situation outside, and Pang Tong paid great attention to collecting intelligence outside Shuchuan.

At this time, Zhang Yu rested his troops and worked hard.

The development of various places is very good, the territory controlled by Zhang Yu is too large, and the national strength has been improving rapidly.

If this continues, one year is equal to the development of Shuchuan for several years, or even more than ten years.

Zhang Yu controls more than ten large territories in Shuchuan, and develops for one year, not to mention ten times that of Shuchuan.

If it goes on like this, as long as Zhang Yu is not too stupid, ordinary people can beat them, not to mention that Zhang Yu has always been extremely wise.

This Pang Tong had been to Jiangdong and had studied at Jiangdong Academy for a while, so he naturally knew Zhang Yu's ability to govern the place.

Zhang Yu's reputation is not good, that is in the family, in the hearts of the people, Zhang Yu's reputation is better than anyone else.

Pang Tong was melancholy, although he was young, but Zhang Yu was as young as him, Zhang Yu would never die, he would never have a chance, even if Zhang Yu died, the successors, as long as they were not the best faint king, they also had no chance.

Pang Tong's fate seems to be doomed, and he can leave a mark in history, but he has always been a supporting role.

Zhang Yu didn't know much about the situation in Shuchuan, so he knew a rough idea.

This is not yet the time for them to attack, and penetration is still needed.

During the cabinet meeting, Guo Jia reported in detail on the situation in Shuchuan.

Shuchuan is progressing quite smoothly, and after understanding that Liu Bei has no ambition, the general trend is like this, and one day they can be divided internally.

It's not easy to break in, only let them disintegrate internally.

Zhang Yu is in charge of various innovations in the capital.

After dealing with Shuchuan, he began to think about Ma Teng and Rome.

Ma Teng's matter, Zhang Yu and the cabinet have actually discussed it many times.

This time, Zhang Yu reconvened the cabinet meeting.

"The innovations have gone relatively smoothly, and after a year of innovation, the national strength has risen rapidly, and the most important thing is that there are no major problems, so there is not much need for the enemy of the West."

Zhang Yu told the cabinet his thoughts, he wanted to destroy the enemy as soon as possible.

After a year of innovation, the system of provinces, cities, and counties can basically be determined, and this new system has many disadvantages and benefits.

Under the strong promotion of Zhang Yu, now Zhang Yu has set up Guangdong, Fujian and other places have also begun to divide.

This gives provinces, cities, and counties a separation of powers and a great deal of autonomy at all levels.

First of all, the cabinet and the ministry don't have to manage so many officials, and in later generations, there are cadres in the central management and provincial management.

The innovations are going well, just as the canal project secretly promoted by Zhang Yu is now relatively smooth.

More than 200 miles of canals were dug in one year.

Of course, Zhang Yu also quietly increased the number of people, and the allocation did not go to the cabinet.

A batch of silver was shipped back from overseas, and Zhang Yu let people transport it before it was recorded, and this money did not go through any procedures at all, and there was no record.

If this continues, in another five or six years, Zhang Yu will be able to dig the canal, and after he digs it, I am afraid that the world will know that Zhang Yu has been doing such a thing.

The innovations went smoothly, and Zhang Yu planned to start with Ma Teng and Liu Bei in advance, so there was no need to keep it.

Guo Jia was in charge of intelligence, and he spoke first: "My lord, although Ma Teng has developed by relying on the Silk Road in recent years, their population is small, and they are attracted by us, in fact, they have been expanding their armaments in the past two years, and there is no development. ”

"Do you know how long their food and grass will last?" Zhang Zhao asked.

Guo Jia is more confident in his own intelligence, they have been in business for a long time, and they have mobilized many people to come over.

Now, Zhang Yu's intelligence focus must have been mobilized to Shuchuan and Ma Tengna, and the talents who had dealt with Sun Ce, Cai Mao, and Cao Cao in the past have been mobilized.

Guo Jia said: "Every year, if we didn't transport a lot of grain and grass over, they would not have enough to eat in Liangzhou, but now they have a lot of reserves, enough for 200,000 soldiers and horses to eat for more than three years." ”

It's only been three years, and that's because it wasn't so easy for Ma Teng to build the Silk Road.

He laid out a number of stations along the road, which also stocked up on a certain amount of food.

Transporting grain and grass to the desert is very difficult and consumes a lot of money, and Ma Teng pays a great price.

However, these Silk Roads also brought back a steady stream of wealth.

Several stops were arranged along the way to replenish water and food for the caravans, making it much easier to travel back and forth.

Guo Jia reported the information in more detail.

Zhang Yu carefully calculated and said: "It's not in a hurry, we will prepare for another half a year, and after half a year, we will start to blockade Ma Teng." ”

Zhang Yu thought about it again and said: "The price of grain and grass will be raised from now on, and the amount will be reduced by half. ”

Zhang Yu didn't want to block Ma Teng immediately, and trade with Ma Teng, in fact, the money came quickly, and a large amount of construction in Huaxia needed money.

Once the general direction is set, the next step is to make a more detailed plan.

Zhang Yu did not mobilize troops and horses on a large scale, and built a large city in the west and center.

Ma Teng was very nervous about the construction of these cities at first, thinking that Zhang Yu was going to do something to them, but then it didn't matter, they felt that Zhang Yu wasted his strength to build a city there, so he had no time to deal with him.

In Liangzhou, Ma Teng and Ma Chao were welcoming a group of guests.

It was a "caravan" of more than five thousand people.

The caravan was strange, and it also brought in a shipment of goods and a large amount of silver.

They were one of the advance teams sent by the Roman Empire.

They didn't carry much weaponry, this was for secrecy.

Their so-called secrecy, as everyone knows, Zhang Yu has long known everything.

Zhang Yu didn't know how many spies he had sent in Liangzhou.

Some Liangzhou natives were recruited by Zhang Yu and sent back.
