Yang Xi returned to the office of the county citizen center and began to think carefully about how to deal with the test.

The operation in Malacca must not be postponed, and that side is the top priority.

The operation cannot be postponed, but the number of garrisons can be reduced.

So Yang Xi wrote on the paper: The Strait of Malacca is named Wuchang Strait, and the island is named Wuchang Island. The first group of immigrants was 40,000 people. The governor of the Wuchang Strait, Tian Cong, the former director of Qinghe Port, was transferred to take office. The commander of the Wuchang Strait Regiment transferred Lei Zi, the former governor of the fortress fleet, to his post, and led 10,000 men and 10,000 new men, 30 new artillery ships, and 80 cannons.

The extra twenty sky-bombing cannons and twenty gunboats, Yang Xi stayed in the Chenhe area and called them separately. The extra 10,000 recruits, Yang Xi also plans to use in this counterattack.

After planning this matter, Yang Xi went back and thought about the response to Cao Cao's attack this year.

The first is the defense of civil strife, and it is very likely that the gentry tribes in various places will resurgce, or even spontaneously organize armed forces, but these must be suppressed and extinguished in the bud.

The government order signed by Yang Xi is that the entire Chenhe control area, the security group established by the Chenhe Business Alliance, the personnel of the security regiment set up by the Chenhe Business Alliance have been doubled, and the original security regiment of 500 people has been increased to 1,000 people, and the county governments have been ordered to pay close attention to the movements of the scholars in various places, and arrest them as soon as there is a situation.

The second order is to integrate Qingzhou, which originally had a population of more than 1.1 million, and more than 300,000 Penglai Island and Chenhe Islands, almost 1.5 million people, and it must be guarded no matter what.

At present, the troop configuration is 6,000 people in the Jian Assault Regiment, 12,000 in the Weigua Regiment, and 12,000 in the Zhang Liao Regiment.

The third order was to integrate the two counties of Guangling and Jiujiang into the Huaihe Theater, with Tai Shi Ci as the commander, and 9,000 people each from Tai Shi Ci's headquarters, Zulang, and Gan Ning, with a total of 27,000 men and horses.

The fourth order, on the Lujiang side, with Cai Kao as the commander, established the Lujiang Theater, and led 6,000 cavalry from the guard battalion, 6,000 cavalry from Liao Wei's regiment, and 6,000 county soldiers provided by Lu Jun, a total of 18,000 people, to defend the Huai River in the Lujiang section.

The fifth order was that the three counties of Wu County, Huiji, and Danyang should set up the Jiangdong Theater, with 12,000 troops under Huang Zhong's command and 10,000 soldiers and horses from Xu Hu on Jiatai Island, a total of 22,000 men, to defend the possibility of an attack on the coast and Jiaozhou to Huiji.

The sixth order, Jiangxia, the establishment of the Jiangxia Theater, with Mao Luan as the commander, Zhou Tai's 6,000, Huang Jie's 5,000 Xiling soldiers, 6,000 troops stationed outside the city, and Mao Luan's own 12,000 soldiers and horses, all under his command, a total of 29,000 soldiers and horses. Mao Luan Zhou Tai is guarding Wuling County at the moment, and he will be transferred back immediately.

The seventh order was that the two counties of Changsha and Wuling were to establish the Jingnan Theater, leading 6,000 defenders of Wuchang, 10,000 recruits this year, 3,000 of the original Wuling artillery battalion and 10,000 of the Changsha army, a total of 29,000 people, with Pang Tong as the commander.

Yang Xi calculated carefully, in addition to the 20,000 Wuchang Strait men and horses arranged, the other six theaters of Qingzhou Theater, Huaihe Theater, Jiangdong Theater, Lujiang Theater, Jiangxia Theater, and Jingnan Theater totaled 157,000 soldiers and horses.

Coupled with Yang Xi's own 3,000 Gao Shun trapped camp, a total of 160,000 soldiers and horses, today, there are still people who dare to threaten to exterminate themselves, which is really not sky-high and thick.

If you count the 40,000 or 50,000 guards of the Chenhe River and the giant ship, it is 200,000.

Yang Xi issued a government decree on the eighth day of the first year of this year, six war zone orders, plus an expedition order, a total of eight orders, shaking the world, which is very famous in history, and later history books take this as a reference point for the rise, known as the "Chenhe Eight Orders" in history, and there are also people who call it "Eight Fangs Orders" in the wild history.

Now that Yang Xi has decreed that it does not need to be approved by anyone, he has become a de facto dictator. Yang Xi believes that in troubled times, he will lay the foundation first, and then change the status quo later, mainly because he has not reached this level of cognition when anyone participates in the opinion.

Who knew the earth was round? Pang Tong? Zhuge Liang? Guo Jia? Cao Cao?

For Yang Xi, everyone is a frog at the bottom of the well.

The eight orders were issued, and Yang Xi solved an internal problem and happened to take this opportunity to integrate it.

Next, Yang Xi has to make the next move, and there are two things in the next step.

The first was to order Pang to command the Jingnan Theater, and the troops were divided into two routes, all the way from Wuling to the southeast, and all the way from Changsha to the southwest, to jointly attack Lingling County.

Lingling guarded Liu Du and Jiang Wan and the general Xing Daorong, guarding Lingling at this time, and was sincerely afraid every day, worried that Yang Xi would come to take it, and worried about Sun Quan's soldiers and horses in the south.

What should come will always come, and I will not list it here for the time being.

said that Yang Xi's second thing was to welcome Jia Xu.

On the twelfth day of the first month of 204, the Yangtze River fleet, the Wuchang Strait Fleet, a group of 350 ships, along the Yangtze River, marched downstream, all the way through various ports, to pick up some immigrants on the ship, to Wujun Shanghai out of the river, it was already the end of the month.

The fleet continued to move south, and when it came to Huiji, Yang Xi led Gao Shun's trap camp to disembark at Dongye Port.

After Yang Xi disembarked, about 110,000 soldiers, civilians, craftsmen, and engineers of the Yangtze River fleet continued to go south.

To the northwest of Dongye, there is a mountain range called Wuyi Mountain.

The mountain appearance of Wuyi Mountain is majestic, the cliff is cut and towered, the wall stands ten thousand thousands, the peaks are towering, there is the first peak in the southeast, there are also peculiar beautiful scenery such as Jiuqu River.

It is said that the distance of Jiuqu Creek is only a few kilometers in a straight line, but it is cut by a cliff and curved to a length of 70 kilometers.

Not far from Wuyi Mountain, there is a county, called Hanxing County, there is a wealthy family in the county, two brothers, the eldest brother is named Hong Ming, and his younger brother is named Hong Jin. The ancestors of the two had a thin family wealth, and both of them were powerful, so they were famous in the township and introduced to several surrounding counties.

Hong Ming and Hong Jin, since Wang Langzhi Huiji, began to unite the township, secretly recruited troops and horses, to two or three thousand people, self-sufficient, disrespectful orders.

Wang Lang at that time due to the lack of county soldiers, and there are external troubles, it is impossible to control, this Hongming Hongjin, has now developed to more than 10,000 people, more around Nanping, Gaizhu and other places Yuanyu, Wu Fu, Huadang and other powerful alliances, to resist Wang Lang, do not pay taxes.

Several passers-by united, counting thirty or forty thousand people, after Yang Xi won the meeting, in order to use the policy to slowly divide, but this Hong Ming and other leaders also secretly united and did not obey.

At this time, there was a guest in Hong Ming's house, who claimed to represent the imperial court and had a holy purpose.

Jia Xu went to Hanxing at the end of the first month, met Hong Ming, and told the two of them that Cao Cao wanted to tell the world and crusade against Yang Xi.

"The two, with the strength you have now, you can unite with several powerhouses around you, break away from Yang Xi's control, and respond to the trend of the world. Once successful, the prime minister will have his own reward, money and title, no problem. If not, the two of them will never be able to get rid of this thief. ”

Hong Ming said: "Lord Jia is a little alarmist, and now the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce treats us well, and there is no need to pay taxes in the jurisdiction, not to mention, we can also become businessmen, and we also have preferential policies." And now these counties, each with its own chamber of commerce and business alliance to form a security army, and Huang Zhong soon led the troops south, if you want to start an incident, it is not easy to talk about. ”
