Mrs. Cai peeked at Jiang Sheng, knew that there was a play, and hurriedly persuaded: "The prince is tired on the journey, how can there be no warm-hearted person around him?" Just let her serve the left and right, which can be regarded as a concubine's heart. ”

Jiang Sheng said: "This woman is not a virgin, she is Liu Cong's wife and concubine, right?" ”

Cai's was moved, knowing that he couldn't stop hiding it, so he said: "The prince is angry!" The prince is angry! Although the Cai family is committed to Cong'er, they have long been separated, and although they have the name of husband and wife, they are no longer husband and wife. Cai's heart admires the prince, and hopes that the prince will take him in and be a slave and a servant, but according to the prince's orders. ”

"Your kindness, the lonely king's heart has been received, and it is against the virtue of heaven to take away people's wives, you should go back. As long as you are loyal to the Lone King, the Lone King will be treated kindly! ”

Cai had no choice but to ask Liu Cong to hand over Jingzhou's household registration and troop establishment sequence, Jia Xu accepted it, and presented it to Jiang Sheng, Jiang Sheng simply glanced at it and handed it over to Cao Cao, who was in charge of administration.

Jiang Sheng glanced at Mrs. Cai and said, "Jingzhou is a strategic location, survival is crucial, you have already submitted to me, I don't know what your plans are in the future?" ”

Mrs. Cai was the most observant of words and feelings, and knew that Jiang Sheng didn't want them to continue to control Jingzhou, so she said: "How can we orphans and widows have the ability to guard Jingzhou?" Hearing that the capital is prosperous, the concubine begged the prince for permission to allow my mother and son to move to the capital. ”

Jiang Sheng secretly thought: You are sensible! Then he said, "Well, the Lone King agrees to your request. Wenhe, you inform Xun Yu and let him make proper arrangements. ”

"Obey!"

Cai pulled Liu Cong and his wife to thank him hurriedly.

Jiang Sheng said again: "Meng De, Jingzhou will be handed over to you to govern, and you must not live up to the expectations of the Lone King!" ”

Cao Cao has been left out in the cold since his surrender, although he served as the administrative leader of the combat readiness area, but he acted according to Jiang Sheng's face, and this time Jiang Sheng directly handed over the strategic place to Cao Cao, which can be regarded as fully trusting him.

Cao Cao hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang!" you don't live up to the prince's expectations! ”

After the arrangement was completed, Jiang Sheng ordered Zhao Yun, Zhang Ning, Xiahoudun, and Cao Chun's armies to assemble in the south of Xiangyang, set up camp, strengthen training, and prepare for the upcoming southern expedition.

Jingzhou returned to Jiang Sheng, and there was no need to continue the soldiers and horses lurking in Nanyang, Jiang Sheng incorporated these people into the Jingzhou army by recruiting new troops.

Jiang Sheng was more optimistic about Huang Zhong, so he handed over the Jingzhou local army to Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong had been unwilling for many years, Jiang Sheng's heart-to-heart trust made him die, and he may never understand that Jiang Sheng completely trusted a person who was forced to surrender.

From the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the present, years of conquest have made the Han Dynasty fall apart, and the original princes of the Eighteenth Route have perished, reorganized, merged, and dominated in this struggle for hegemony, and now Jiang Sheng is undoubtedly the most powerful road.

But Liu Bei and Sun Quan are not good at stubble, when Jiang Sheng was in the east and west, Sun Quan had a relatively loose space for development, Jiangdong's strength swelled, Sun Quan destroyed Yan Baihu, Ping Wang Lang, and brought Yizhou into the jurisdiction, and the military under his command was also full of talents, especially Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Huang Gai and others, who were proficient in water warfare, and established a powerful fleet that was enough to resist Jiang Sheng's navy.

At the same time, Zhou Yu organized the Changsha Raider, included Jingzhou Changsha County into Sun Quan's sphere of influence, and continued to go south, taking Guiyang County as well, and is currently making every effort to attack Lingling County.

After Liu Bei took control of the situation in Yizhou, he also worked hard, concentrated on development, and dared to fight against Jiang Sheng by virtue of his terrain advantages.

Liu Xie, the nominal emperor, was just the last fig leaf of the Han Dynasty, and after Jiang Sheng was crowned the queen of Jin, the Han Dynasty came to an end.

Sun Quan proclaimed himself the Marquis of Wu, and although he ostensibly shouted loyalty to the Han Dynasty, he actually didn't care about the edicts of the imperial court.

Liu Bei was not far behind, and even proclaimed himself the king of Shu under the banner of being a descendant of the royal family.

Jiang Sheng knew that he couldn't stop this kind of thing, so he simply ignored them, and carried out the great cause of reunification step by step, Liu Bei and Sun Quan did whatever they wanted, waiting to slowly clean them up.

Liu Xie was furious when he learned the news, and issued an edict to scold Sun Quan and Liu Bei, and let them go to Beijing to accept the crime.

This is obviously self-inflicted humiliation, Liu Bei and Sun Quan don't care about it at all, and Jiang Sheng also secretly scolded Liu Xie for being stupid.

Liu Xie, who had lost face, sent someone to find Jiang Sheng, hoping that Jiang Sheng would punish them well, Jiang Sheng found all kinds of reasons to shirk it, and it was useless for Liu Xie to get angry in a hurry, so it was put on hold.

And the situation of three points in the world has been formed, Zhuge Liang's judgment has been confirmed, Liu Bei attaches more and more importance to Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang's opinion must be sought for everything.

Liu Xie only knew that Jiang Sheng unified the north of the Yangtze River and controlled Jingzhou, so he must be strong, and Liu Bei and Sun Quan were powerless to resist at all. But Jiang Sheng knew his own troubles.

Since the establishment of the Tai Shi Ci Navy, it has used ships of a unified style, and the development has encountered problems, Jiang Sheng has repeatedly ordered the development of the naval fleet, but the results are not obvious.

In the face of the growing strength of the Jiangdong fleet, Jiang Sheng convened a meeting of senior generals of the navy and experts from the Academy of Military Sciences.

The technology of the steam engine has been relatively mature, and Jiang Sheng put forward a plan for the development of steamships.

The use of steam engines to drive ships is not trivial, freeing up manpower, improving the ship's maneuverability, and more importantly, doubling the load directly.

The original wood-based, iron-clad ships can be eliminated and replaced with ironclad ships, with an all-steel structure, better defense, and not afraid of fire attacks, and at the same time can carry a lot of fire dragon arrow launchers.

The upgrading and transformation of naval equipment has become the highlight of the Academy of Military Sciences, and this troubled era has made Jiang Sheng so tossed, and there has been a technological revolution beyond the limits of the times!

The planning of the railway had already been approved by Jiang Sheng, and the line from Luoyang to Changli was first constructed, and the craftsmen who had originally built Luoyang City were put into intensive work, and these people, who had been separated from agricultural life, developed into a specialized social class, the working class.

The Wuhuan tribe has maintained close ties with the Han people since Jiang Sheng's control many years ago, Tian Yu pursued Jiang Sheng's policy of ethnic integration, Wu and Han intermarriage, mixed residence, has achieved assimilation, the entire Wuhuan region has been incorporated into the rule of the Han Dynasty, Jiang Sheng set up the Beidi Captain Department, officially divided into the administrative region of the Han Dynasty, and let Chu Yan, who has managed the grassland for many years, serve as the Wuhuan captain.

Deng Mao, who was in charge of grassland mining, was also promoted, Jiang Sheng integrated the mining base into the North Industrial Base, and became the special industrial zone of Dahan.

Economic development is the right way, Jiang Sheng let the people eat and dress well, live a better life, and the population has swelled rapidly.

Considering that the population of the Han Dynasty had plummeted due to years of war, Jiang Sheng's policy was to encourage each family to have at least three children, both male and female. If there are more than three children, the government at all levels shall pay subsidies; If the husband and wife have less than three children by the age of 25, they have to pay heavy additional taxes.

In the society at that time, the status of the most men in the family was transcendent, and now there is the government to help raise children, so there are not many children? Although this has increased the burden on the government to a certain extent, it is indeed the right way to develop in the long run.
