Chapter 454: Retreat West

In the twenty-first year of Jian'an (216), the Southern Xiongnu lived in the Sei, the population multiplied, and the power gradually increased. However, Cao Cao was still afraid that it would spread and be difficult to control, so he left Nandan in Huchuquan in Yecheng, and sent the right Xianwang to live in Pingyang and supervise his country, and divided the Southern Xiongnu into five divisions: left, right, front, back, and middle, so that they were separated from the counties of Bingzhou (southwest of Taiyuan, Shanxi), and each department was placed in command, and the Han people were used as Sima to supervise each department.

At this time, the Southern Xiongnu already had a population of one million, and was divided by Cao Cao, and ordered the reform to make Jia Xu personally supervise the construction of infrastructure in various places, recruit a large number of laborers, build roads and canals, and the Southern Xiongnu became more and more stable, and gradually integrated with the Han people in the Central Plains.

Shan Yu Hu Chuquan was helpless, but he didn't dare to resist, after all, the strength of the Han Dynasty at this time was not as good as the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty.

There is a country of Chenhe in the south, leading the world, and the economy and population have swelled sharply, and the country alone will reach 80 million people by the end of the year, with millions of troops. Under this pressure, Cao Cao in the north also worked hard and did not dare to slack off, although he was backward, but he did not dare to imagine it at all.

Cao Cao collected hundreds of thousands of people from Ding, divided the Southern Xiongnu, and collected hundreds of thousands of Xianbei in the west of Budugen, and the population reached 15 or 6 million, which was unprecedentedly powerful.

But the stronger Cao Cao was, the more he felt that the Chenhe Kingdom was terrifying.

No, as soon as I received the news that Liu Bei and Sun Quan were approaching and asked the imperial court to send troops, before the decision was made, the news came that Yu Shao'a's general Bai Feng was killed and all the troops surrendered.

The Baifeng Department was absorbed, which meant that in Ba County, Yu Shao'a had no foundation, Zhuge Liang and Huang Gai retreated west to Shu County overnight, and Ba County was abandoned.

No way, Zhuge Liang is not a god, every day he sees airships flying around in the sky, although he does not drop bombs, but the deterrence makes people's backs chill.

The flying ball will not be embarrassed, put one and be shot down the other, Zhuge Liang and Huang Gai knew that the other party's 150,000 army was on the side, but they just didn't know where.

After being accustomed to flying the ball to detect the enemy's situation for so many years, suddenly without this thing, the battle would not have been fought.

Zhuge Liang and Huang Gai retreated westward, and only Yu Shao'a led 30,000 troops and horses to the south.

Yu Shao'a was looking forward to a miracle, so he sent ten airships and cannonballs to blow up the supply line of Chenhe Country.

Unfortunately, the airships of the Tatsu River Kingdom are even more powerful, each airship is equipped with two snipers, and the range is more than a kilometer away.

Yu Shao'a's most proud weapon was just a decoration in front of Yang Xi, and only two of the ten airships ran away.

In December, outside Youyang City, Yang Xi personally led an army of 50,000 people. At this time, the passage to Yizhou in Jingzhou was finally opened before the snow, and since then, it is no longer difficult for 6 roads to pass through Yizhou.

In Youyang City, Yu Shao'a was analyzing the situation.

"Lord, the Chenhe army has reached thirty kilometers east of the city!"

"Did they move on?"

"No, it's said that I'm waiting for some weapon to be delivered, and what kind of mortar is that weapon."

"Mortar?" Yu Shao was shocked.

"Yang Xi, Yang Xi, you think too highly of me. It's my 30,000 primitive soldiers and horses, your 150,000 strong soldiers, and mortars, do you want to spend a single soldier? You want Bajun, I'll give it to you! ”

"Someone! The order went down, and the whole army retreated, heading to Qiqi County and Lancheng. ”

Yu Shao'a gave up Ba County, and Yang Xi just built the road and took the entire Ba County, without really fighting a battle.

To Ba County, Yang Xi ordered the military horses to continue to transport materials from Jingzhou and continue to build roads, but he himself first took an airship to Taohua Township to check Yu Shao'a's secret steel base.

A few days later, the management team of Ba County arrived, and Yang Xi handed over all the infrastructure and other work to them, and finally the snow began to fall.

--

Yecheng, the palace of Prince Cao Pi.

Sima Yi shook the snow on his shoulders, reached out and leaned over to pat off the snow flakes behind the cotton coat, and walked into the door.

Cao Pi led Huanjie, Xing Yi, and Wu Zhen for a long time, and Sima Yi paid homage to the prince, and everyone hugged Cao Pi inside.

Without waiting for Sima Yi to sit down, Cao Pi said, "How?" ”

Sima Yi arched his hand and said, "Prince! Things are not as simple as imagined, the King of Wei seems to be ignoring the matter of An Changhou's collusion with Chenhe Kingdom, and it is better not to forcibly intervene in this matter for the time being. ”

"Why can't you send someone to impeach An Changhou, who registered a company in Chenhe Country and actually built the Huaishui Bridge from Chenhe Country to our Great Wei State, what is the difference between such an act and collusion with the enemy country?"

This person who speaks is Huan Jie, this Huan Rank, the word Boxu, a native of Changsha, was once promoted by Sun Jian as filial piety, and the court appointed him as Shang Shulang. Sun Jian died in battle, and Huan Jie ventured to see Liu Biao and claim back Sun Jian's body. Cao Cao pacified Jingzhou, and thanked Huanjie for lobbying Changsha Taishou Zhang Xian to join Cao, appointing him as the prime minister and Zhao Jun. Cao Cao was crowned a duke and founded the country, and Huan was appointed as a general and a servant in the middle of the tiger. Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, and Huan was appointed as Shangshu Ling, Shizhong, and was named the Marquis of Gaoxiang Pavilion, which was regarded by Cao Pi as a minister of life.

Huan Jie just asked, but Wu Zhen said: "Prince! But this matter can't be ignored, it's better to take this opportunity to uproot An Changhou in one fell swoop! ”

This Wu Zhen was loved by Cao Pi at first because of his literary talent, but he was uninhibited, high-flying, and his personality was much more irritable.

Sima Yi said: "No! King Wei did not say anything, the prince must not be moved lightly. At this time, the crown prince should understand the needs of the king of Wei. ”

"What does my father need?" Cao Pi didn't understand.

"Previously, due to the reform, my Great Wei introduced bicycles and other things, so the county roads were built. Nowadays, if the highway is only used for the bicycle, flatbed, etc., it is a bit overkill. Now there are tractors and trucks in Chenhe country, and it is said that next year, there will be a thing called a car. These things were reported to the king of Wei by spies, but Yang Xi strictly controlled them, and my Great Wei could not get them. Now after An Changhou registered Xinyang Industrial Company in Chenhe State, Yang Xi actually handed over the right to distribute this thing in the north to An Changhou, and if the King of Wei wanted to get this thing, I am afraid that he could only wait for An Changhou to introduce this thing. ”

was analyzed by Sima Yi like this, Cao Pi suddenly broke off his thoughts, and the others naturally didn't want to say anything.

Cao Zhi knew that he would face many attacks if he cooperated with the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, but as long as the Wei State was in need, he could take the opportunity to become bigger.

Not only Cao Cao needs, but also the major new economies that have emerged in Wei also need the mouth of An Changhou.

With Cao Cao's acquiescence, Cao Zhi successfully completed the first phase of the project, and before the end of the year, the bridge was completed and the Xinyang wholesale market was completed.

Many commercial families in the north heard the wind and rented shops in the Xinyang batch market, hundreds of shops, and rented out dozens of them, although only one-tenth of them were completed, but many of these merchants were very strong.

At the end of the year, the whole train drove to Xinyang Railway Station, which is a freight car from Hong Kong City, passing through dozens of stations along the way, and there are goods on board at each station, and the twenty-four carriages are all filled with goods.

The seafood of the China Eastern Airlines Commercial Bank, the cotton clothes of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, the sweet potato flour of Hong Kong City, the bicycles of the Shanghai Depot, the flashlight of the Chenhe Electric Machinery Factory, the ceramics of Jingdecheng, etc., hundreds of products, to name a few, through the Xinyang Bridge, flock to Huaibei.
