There are not many things to discuss every day, but some things have been dragged on for a long time. For example, the water war between Chu and Qin, and the reward for the defeat of the Qin army last year.

The water war is related to the alliance between Chu and Qin, and it also involves the renewal of the large and small warships of the boat division - shipbuilding is a systematic project, and the boat division must be replaced from the previous single and triple and three warships. Money is safe, the last thing that Chu State lacks now is money, and it is the most important thing for craftsmen to master new shipbuilding techniques.

The other is the ship material that meets the dryness standard. The more the wood dries, the less likely the hull will be to deform and crack in the future. With proper maintenance, a ship can last for decades. Nearly 1,000 shallow-water warships need to be replaced, and it is estimated that hundreds of ships will be built in the sea, and the ships in the deep mountains of Chu are patches of timber, but they must be cut down and dried as soon as possible to be built in time, which is related to logging matters.

Shipbuilding involves all aspects, and the reward for meritorious men is also a matter of great implication. Previously, Xiong Jing wanted to give Xiang County to Xiang Yan, but the matter was big, and he was worried that the ministers would oppose it, but now that the restoration of the country has been recognized, there is no merit to restore the country, and there is no merit to seal the county, so it is always unreasonable.

"How does Xiang Yan seal the reward?" Just when the ministers thought that today's court meeting was over, Xiong Jing brought up the old matter.

"This matter ......" Nao Cunning also changed his mind, he was against Feng Xiang County Yu Xiang Yan before. Now that this is the case, Xiang Yan should be sealed in Xiang County. However, Chen Yi, who insisted on defending Chengyang, was the first to break through the Qin array, Chen Yi and Shen Yinxi, as well as Xiang Chao and Fu Jing, who led the riders to intercept the Qin cavalry, and returned to the division to save Yingyi Yangjun and other feudal monarchs, all of whom should be rewarded. ”

Nao cunning means that a bowl of water should be even, not favoritism, so that the land sealed out will be more than one county. Yang Wenjun asked: "The king sealed Xiang Yan in Xiang County, is it a feudal or a feudal monarch?" ”

Yang Wenjun asked very carefully. Feudal monarchs and sub-feudal are different, Huang Xie's fiefs are collected for three generations at most, and some are even recovered after death, which is a feudal monarch; The sub-seal is different, the sub-feud is for future generations, and it will last forever for thousands of years, and this is the founding of the country, and if the sub-feud continues, Xiang County will become Xiang County, and it will no longer be Xiang County.

"All parts of the country can be restored, why can't the general be crowned?" Zi Mo muttered. The longer the Yan Dynasty stayed, the more they thought that the current territory of the Chu State was nothing more than an illusion, and that the cities on the north bank of the Huaishui would be occupied by the Qin. It's all something to lose, do you still need to be stingy?

"What does the master think?" Xiong Jing looked at Song Yu, his opinion was still very important many times.

"If it is divided, can the Xiang clan retreat to Jiangdong in the future?" Song Yu asked rhetorically.

"It really shouldn't be divided." Nao also understood this meaning. Dividing the feud is the founding of the country, what if the Xiang family and the country coexist and die in the future?

"The matter of retreating to Jiangdong, the king can talk to Xiang Yan in advance." The relationship between Yang Wenjun and Xiang Yan is quite deep, and his position has always been Yuanyingdu and pro-county Yin, if the division of Xiang Yan can be realized because of his advances, then the county Yin will value him more.

"After the restoration of the country, there is not much left in Chu, and the king really wants to destroy the country?" Zhao Huang sighed, he was a little numb.

"Naturally, it's not about destroying the country." Xiong Jing smiled bitterly.

Having gone to the battlefield in person, he had already sensed the horror of the Qin State. Afterwards, the Great Sima Mansion thought that the Qin State could mobilize at least 600,000 troops of this kind of combat power, which overwhelmed him even more. The 200,000 Qin army is already so difficult to deal with, and 600,000 will not be destroyed if it is pressed?

At his age, he was sleepy, but in those days, he couldn't sleep for several days when he thought of the 600,000 army of the Qin State, and he looked at the map of the Chu State day and night, thinking of ways to resist the Qin army. What the Chu State can really rely on is to rely on Jiangdong to establish a Jianghuai defense line. The core of the Jianghuai defense line was Xiayi in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, where the Chu army had to contain Qin's army and boat divisions so that they could not touch the lower reaches of the Yangtze River; And the army retreating from the north of the Huai River will engage in a bloody and uninterrupted tug-of-war with the Qin army between the Huai River and the Yangtze River, and will not be able to fight a decisive battle in Huaibei as in later generations

-- The decisive battle was fought north of the Huai River, and it was a strategic decisive battle of short distance and shallow depth for the attacker. Even if it is a shallow and deep decisive battle, the victory pushed by the wheelbarrow is just propaganda. It is not uncommon to see internal battle reports, the vast majority of military supplies still rely on trains and ships for transportation, and with only 65 percent of the military rations satisfied, the army has basically eaten up the sweet potatoes and wheat seeds of the peasant households after several months of war. If the decisive battle is not in Huaibei but in Bengbu, or even in the area south of Bengbu, the far depth will definitely bring a logistical disaster.

Xiayi (or Nanjun Jingzhou), Jianghuai, and Jiangdong will form a strategic defense system similar to a triangle. The foundation lies in Jiangdong, but the swamp-connected Jiangdong has no time to develop for more than ten years, unless the Huaibei people are migrated to Jiangdong now, and then corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes are found from the Americas.

"The king must not forget to reward the generals of the land." Song Yu reminded again, he thought of Jiangdong in his heart.

"Nao Qing will arrange it, just according to the standard of the feudal monarch." Xiong Jing eventually abandoned feudalism. At the same time, he began to think in his heart that immigration was originally a difficult thing, and it was even more difficult to immigrate under the political system of the Korean people. What are the best places in Koto for immigrants? I should have gone to Koto earlier.

After the last thing was discussed, the Yan Dynasty dispersed. But Yin Nao was left alone by Xiong Jing, and after asking people to find a map of Jiangdong, he said: "It's always not wrong to take precautions, it's time to survey all parts of Jiangdong." ”

The capture of Magu represented an offensive, while the reconnaissance of Gangdong represented another strategy: retreat. Of course, Nao Wei knew what the retreat represented, and he said: "The minister has asked people to sort out the documents related to Jiangdong over the years, as well as the earlier documents of Wu and Yue. The survey is also being planned, but there are many epidemics in Jiangdong, and it cannot be surveyed in autumn and winter. ”

Sea tides, swamps, and epidemics, the current Koto is like a South American rainforest, and it is by no means the land of fish and rice for future generations. Compared with the Huai River Basin, Xiong Jing is more familiar with Jiangdong, especially Zhejiang. Relying on the memories of later generations, he felt that he might be able to discover something. "I want to leave before I go to the top and take a look at Koto."

"The king wants to go?" Nao was stunned. "Jiangdong is a wild land, the king must not go in person."

"I want to move Sheji and the ancestral temple here." Xiong Jing pointed to the location of Hangzhou, which was still blank and there was nothing.

"Here? No, you can't. "Nao cunning, I didn't expect Xiong Jing to retreat so far all at once." Huiji is different from other counties, and the ancestral temple of Jiji is here, and the more people are uneasy. ”

"Uneasy?" Xiong Jing looked at him in surprise, "Isn't Huiji under the rule of my Chu State?" Isn't Yang Shu a good Sima? ”

"Although Huiji is under the rule of my Chu State, the county Yin is a Yue person, and my Chu people call it the county Yin, and the Yue people still call him Yue Jun." Nao Cunning explained. "Huiji, the princes of Chu also."

"That, that Concubine Li ......" Xiong Jing remembered the old story of Concubine Li begging her father to seal Xiong Gong in Huiji.

"What's the matter with Concubine Li?" Nao was cunning, he naturally didn't understand that Concubine Li wanted the King of Chu to send troops to drive away Yue Jun and give the Huiji title to Xiong Han. It is indeed impossible for the Yue people to return to the country, but at the beginning, the Chu State only 'collected all the old Wu land to Zhejiang', and did not completely occupy the entire territory of the Yue Kingdom, except for the worried epidemic, and then the embodiment of the thinking inertia of the Chu people: the Chu people only like flat land. The return of Bashu to Qin and not to Chu is also based on this.

The ruling practice of the Chu people, in addition to moving away the royal family of the occupying country, and maintaining the middle and lower classes, also has a system of bondage. Huiji is the county of Jiaoji, and Sima of Yanglu County not only holds military power, but also holds political power.

It took about a quarter of an hour for Nao to finish describing Chu Yue's current situation and the reasons for this situation, and Xiong Jing was so shocked that he couldn't keep his mouth shut after hearing it. He thought that Huiji belonged to the Chu State, and the Yue State was south of the Oujiang River, but in fact, the land between the Qiantang River and the Oujiang River was actually the Yue people. And Huiji County Yin, who should be called Yue Wang Sun Kai or Yue Jun Kai by the name of the Yue people, in the face of a behemoth like Chu State, as long as the temple of the first king is still there and the benefits are not lost, he will not care.

"What kind of character is Kai?" Xiong Jing felt that he was too confused, and he didn't know that Huiji didn't belong to him completely after being on the throne for so long.

"After the death of King Wuqiang of Yue, the Sun Gong clan either fought among themselves or scattered. The ancestor of the opening is the son of Wu Qiang, the great-grandson of Wu Qiang III, although Zhu Yue has many moves to restore the country, he does not participate in it, and only has many dealings with the kings of various countries. "The matter of Huiji is not big compared to the entire Chu State, it is just a county, but it is very complicated to talk about it in detail, and Yue Junkai is also very complicated.

"It seems that this person also wants to return to the country, but he is cautious enough." Xiong Jing had a rough judgment, and the worry in his heart was a little more.

"Don't worry, the king." Nao Cunning saw Xiong Jing's brows. "Under the rule of Chu, the people have to rest, and under the rule of the king of Yue in the past, he fought for hegemony in the Central Plains with a weak country and thin land, and the common people were miserable. Outside the realm of only Chu, the barbarians are more and more noisy, and there are occasional disturbances. Yue Junkai did not return to the country with Zhu Yue, because of this. ”

Nao's cunning words made Xiong Jing's worries put down a little, and then thought about the Chu State in the past few decades, that is, when Dongting County was collected and sent troops from Yuedi, and then it was last year. It is not for nothing that the Yue pawn will call himself 'Zhao'.

"If the Jianghuai defense line is completely lost, or Xiayi is lost, we can only retreat to Yuedi." Xiong Jing returned to the previous topic. "It is very unsafe for the Sheji Zong Temple to store Zhenze (Taihu Lake) in the north, where it is all flat and there is no danger to defend."

"The Three Pulp Boat Divisions can't stop the Qin people from Jiangbei?" Nao was surprised, he had seen the model of the three-dimensional battleship, and he was very confident in holding the defense line of the Yangtze River, but he didn't expect Xiong Jing to see it that way. "The more barren the land, the more Wu land is not owned, the army of grain and grass cannot be sustained."

"If the Three Pulp Boat Master is captured by the Qin people, it will definitely be imitated. And guarding the river must guard the Huai, if the north of the river is owned by the Qin people, the Yangtze River must not last for a long time. "Xiong Jing Dao." In terms of shipbuilding, how could we have built the Qin State, which has the world? ”

In the era of sailing, there were not too many technical bottlenecks in shipbuilding, at least he didn't think there were many. After the Romans captured the Carthaginian ships, they quickly copied a large number of improved Carthaginian ships and defeated the Carthaginians. I am afraid that the three-pulp warship will not be able to escape the fate of being imitated by the Qin army. If the Yangtze River breaks through, Wu Di will not be able to hold it, and it can only occupy Yuedi, or it can be a battle.
