Chapter 240: I Want Nanhai Island
Chenhe Castle, the center of the prefectural government.
It is not the first time that Yu has come to Chenhe City, but every time he is deeply shocked, it is said that the population of Exian County is now more than one million, and the population of Chenhe City accounts for seventy percent of the county.
was invited by Yang Xi along with Yu Tuo, it was Qin Fang.
Yang Xi took out a map, put it in front of the two and said, "Look at it!" ”
The two fiddled with the map, only to see that there seemed to be an island on it, and the South China Sea Island was written on it, three words.
Yu said: "This is Jiaozhou, this island is below Jiaozhou, now occupied by Sun Quan, it is said that there are 200,000 residents on the island, but the population is not much. ”
Yang Xidao: "Zhong Xiang is really good at studying, I will name this island Nanhai Island, you look at it again, this island is just between Wuchang Island and my Chenhe control area, I don't care who this island is in now, I want it, he has to give it." Yu Turn, I order you to be the governor of Nanhai Island, Qin Fang, you are the commander of the Nanhai Army, and I will give you 10,000 soldiers and horses to guard this island. If Sun Quan does not agree, I will personally raise troops and horses to go south. ”
"This island must be in my hands, because our carrier pigeons, can only fly more than 2,000 kilometers at most, if a news relay station is established on this island, there is any news of war in the Wuchang Strait, only need to transit once on this island, I will know the news, about more than ten days. But if we go back and forth by boat, it will take several months, do you think this island is of great significance to us? ”
Only then did Yu Fu and Qin Fang know that it was imperative to take this island.
Yu Fu and Qin Fang glanced at each other, their eyes became firm, and they said in unison: "Childe, but if you have a life, you will spare no effort!" ”
"Good! The two of you will start preparing from today, and I will select talents in various universities, which will be completed in two months at most, plus some construction workers, a total of 10,000 people will be your starting team. As for the soldiers and horses, I have already sent a letter to Xu Hu, the commander of the Taiwan Island Army, asking him to divide half of the 20,000 soldiers and horses with you, and make his own arrangements when the ship passes through Taiwan Island. ”
"Also, I will send a letter to Sun Quan immediately, believing that he knows the trade-off."
Yang Xi met with another person.
"Childe! I'm coming. Ji Ling knocked on the door.
"Old Ji, sit down! I have something to discuss with you. Yang Xi said while making tea himself, he likes to do it himself, so it is not embarrassing to talk like this.
"Childe, just give me an order, where do you want you to arrange me personally." Ji Ling said in his mouth, but he sat down and took a drink from the purple sand cup.
"Well, yes, this time it's green tea."
"Yay? It seems that you have also started drinking tea, good thing, good tea. "Yang Xi is not surprised, this thing has been promoted by himself for many years.
Ji Ling said: "Look at what Gongzi said, Gongzi said that drinking tea is good, that is good, now tea has begun to become popular and has become an industry, saying what products you want to push, it is not a matter of one sentence." ”
"I'm not pushing products, it's really good to drink tea, it's better than drinking. Okay, I won't talk to you about this, I called you here today, but it's for your 6,000 special forces, how are you trained? ”
"Very good, after several years of training, everyone's physique has improved a lot, these are all selected by me personally in the various armies, to be honest, the foundation is too good, plus the training method of the son, now they are any one, at least the previous guard level under the old Yuan's account, the captain of five hundred people."
"Well, in a few years, I think it's about the same, now you have a task, you look at the map, this is the Wuchang Strait, I want you to divide these 6,000 special forces, divided into six battalions, along the Wuchang Strait, every few hundred kilometers, to establish a secret military site, specifically to collect intelligence, communicate with carrier pigeons, I want to know the situation of the Amir Empire at any time." You send the information to the commander of the Wuchang Island Legion so that he can be ready and deployed at any time. ”
"Good! Follow the child's arrangement! "Ji Ling is naturally no problem.
Yang Xi told Ji Ling about the precautions along the coast one by one, and instructed that to learn the local language, it is best to slowly conquer some territory and establish a long-term base to make long-term plans, and finally Yang Xi said: "By the way, you can also bring your small family and set up a home on Wuchang Island, the climate there is better than here, and it is convenient to have a boat to go home, and I will transfer you back in a few years." Also, go and talk to Yuan Shu, I'll go with you, say goodbye, he is not in good health, after all, you used to be his subordinate. ”
Yuan Shu's seclusion in Exian County can also be regarded as his blessing, if it were according to the normal historical process, he would have hung up long ago.
When Yang Xi and Ji Ling arrived, Yuan Shu was practicing calligraphy in the study, while his son Yuan Yao was grinding ink next to him. When the two of them saw Yang Xi and Ji Ling coming in, they were somewhat uncomfortable. However, Yuan Shu has been cultivating himself in Exian County for a few years, but he also saw it, but said easily: "Yo, why do you two have time to sit on Yuan's mansion?" ”
Yang Xi said: "I'm afraid the two of us are not welcome on the highway." ”
Yuan Shu put down the pen, wiped his hands with a snow-white towel and said, "Where, just surprised, Yuan Yao!" Go pour tea for the two of you. ”
Yang Xi and Ji Ling sat down, Ji Ling said about his expedition, Yuan Shu was very emotional, chatted for half an hour, and the previous grievances also faded a lot.
Yang Xi said: "Yuan Yao is not young now, why don't you find something to do?" "Of course it's small talk.
But he didn't want Yuan Yao to say: "I want to go to Wuchang Island as Gongzi said to do business, but I am worried that my father is not young and my mother is not in good health, so I have been delayed at home." ”
Yang Xi said: "This is not good, the man is ambitious in all directions, he can't sit and eat empty, I know that your Yuan family still has a lot of wealth, but there is always a time to run out." Take a step back and say, people in the world, always have to do something to enrich themselves, now the south has been decided, there are many business opportunities, it is the time of the rise, you look at the Huang family, the Hu family, and some of the recent rise of the firm, business to Yizhou, with our products here, in exchange for how much Shu brocade, come and go are huge profits. ”
Yuan Shu said: "Chenhe, in fact, what you said makes sense, now that the situation is like this, I am also old, and I should give young people some space." That's it, Yuan Yao, we will go to the bank to exchange all the gold and silver in the house for money, or directly exchange it and save it, do your start-up capital, but you can do some business, Yizhou Shu brocade, Jingde porcelain, and so many products in Exian, these are easy to do, by the way, Chenhe, it is said that you will enter your Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, but you can also be the bicycle agent, you have to give Yuan Yao to get it, it is said that the profit is really not low. ”
Yang Xi didn't expect that when he came to Yuan Shu to chat, he would create a famous businessman, a few years later, this Yuan Yao relied on the relationship between the four generations and the three dukes, but he was very prosperous in the business world, Yuan Shu did not die so early, after Yang Xi came, he still lived for more than 20 years, which is considered a long life.
Yuan Shu, who should have died, didn't die, but in the black land of Liaodong, while Yang Xi and they were chatting, Gongsun Du died, which caused a great change in the north.
Gongsun Du was a county official in Liaodong when he was young, and later served as Shang Shulang and Jizhou Assassin Shi.
Dong Zhuo was good at government affairs, and he didn't dare to offend Gongsun Du, so he took Gongsun Du as the Taishou of Liaodong. Gongsun Du went to the county to kill Liwei, and more than 100 families with famous surnames in the county were destroyed. After the eastern expedition to Goguryeo, the west attacked Wuhuan, the prestige overseas, self-established as the marquis of Liaodong, Pingzhou pastor, according to the etiquette of the Son of Heaven to worship the suburbs of heaven and earth, borrowing fields and other rituals, and arrogance to the clothes of the Son of Heaven, secession of Liaodong.
Cao Cao, in order to appease Gongsun Du, said that he was the general of Wuwei and the Marquis of Yongning, and Gongsun Du put the seal ribbon in the arsenal and ignored it, but he did not suffer for long, but he died of illness.
It's good to be sick and die, this time Cao Cao has one less big enemy.
But Yang Xi is busy, because Gongsun Du has a good relationship with Yang Xi, but his son Gongsun Kang has nothing to do with the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, and Liaodong now has 100,000 soldiers, but it is not simple.
