At present, among the top strategists in Jiangdong, Zhang Zhao is not comprehensive enough, good at government affairs, not good at military strategy, while Zhou Yu and Xu Shu have not grown up thoroughly, and some are inexperienced.

Li Nie is one of the most outstanding strategists in Jiangdong today, he is well versed in military strategy and government affairs, and he is experienced, and most importantly, he is ruthless enough and decisive in his actions.

Since Sun Quan recruited him, he has already found a good position for him, the Governor of Jinyi Guard!

This has always been Sun Quan's position, but Sun Quan's mind is no longer on this, he has always wanted to find a person who can entrust Jinyiwei with the important responsibility, but Jiangdong has never appeared a powerful talent who can support the entire Jinyiwei.

The appearance of Li Nie is just enough to complement this position.

The Governor of Jinyiwei, a high and powerful position, rules the entire Jinyiwei, and now the scale of Jinyiwei is getting bigger and bigger, blooming everywhere in Jiangdong, but it is an extremely important department, not to mention the power of Jinyiwei's secret development, just a few thousand households on the surface have already controlled the huge power, and ordinary people can't control it at all.

Li Nie definitely has the ability to do this.

However, if Li Ne's identity is exposed, there will be big trouble, not only him, but the entire Jiangdong will be in trouble.

"I, the future father-in-law, is really a ** annoyance."

The most important thing is Cai Yong, Cai Yong definitely knows Li Nie.

"If he accidentally recognizes the fact that Li Ne is Li Ru, I'm afraid there will really be some trouble."

"If things get bigger, Li Nie's identity will not be able to be concealed at that time, and it will inevitably be known to the world, and Jiangdong will not be able to keep it if he wants to."

The more Sun Quan thought about it, the more melancholy he became, although Cai Yong had gone from disappointment to despair about the current situation in the imperial court, but a bright Han heart in his heart still did not disappear.

"How can we get this old man to settle down?"

Sun Quan scratched his head, there was no way out, Wu County was so big, as soon as he went up to the top, there were only a few people, looking up and not looking down, and it was impossible to completely conceal Li Nie's identity.

If this old man Cai finds out that the Zhengdong General's Mansion actually took in the mastermind who had single-handedly forced the young emperor to death and burned Luoyang in the past, with his strong temperament, I am afraid that something big will happen.

Cai Yong is not an ordinary old man, he has a lot of energy.

Not to mention Cai Yong's former Confucian reputation, let's just say that now, he is the sacrificial wine of Jiangdong Academy, and Jiangdong Academy recruited students for the second time in September last year.

Today, there are nearly 8,000 students in the entire college.

In the modern world, a university with a population of 8,000 is nothing, but in this era of ignorance and decline, a college of this scale is a behemoth.

Nowadays, the scale of Jiangdong Academy is the largest institution of learning today, whether it is the faculty or the fame, it has come to the forefront of the times, the fame shakes the world, and it is called a holy place of Confucianism by the people in the Shilin, and there is an endless stream of people who want to learn.

And Cai Yong, as the sacrificial wine of such an academy, is the first person, and his status in Shilin has far surpassed that of ordinary Confucians, and now there are only a handful of people who can be compared with him.

If he exerts his strength to force Jiangdong to kill Li Ne, Jiangdong wants to keep Li Ne, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

"Whew!"

Sun Quan thought about it for a long time, with the stubborn temper of Old Man Cai, there was still no proper way to get the best of both worlds, and in desperation, he spit out a turbid breath and muttered to himself: "Forget it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, no matter what, Li Nie has to return to Jiangdong, if a great talent like Li Nie is not sent back to Jiangdong to preside over the overall situation, it is a waste to just put it here in Liaodong to develop." ”

……………………

In the fifth year of the first peace, at the beginning of February, the weather in Liaodong began to warm up, and the snow on the ground began to show signs of melting, which was good news for the people of Jiangdong.

Jiangdong people still have some can't adapt to the icy and snowy weather.

Pingzhou Assassin Sun Jing new official took office, the chaos of the entire Liaodong began to gradually subside, the new assassin history of the appointment, it is equivalent to having a backbone, it turned out that after Gongsun Du was disillusioned, many local powerful forces who were still waiting and watching began to visit.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, this sentence is not wrong at all, in the past, they strongly supported Gongsun Du, but now Jiangdong dominates Liaodong is already the overall situation, if they are not close at this time, what awaits them is the settlement of accounts after the autumn.

No one wants to be a role model for Sun Jing Liwei.

The local Haoqiang who can gain a foothold in Liaodong is not a group of nerds and fools, and they will not be stupid to let themselves be finished for Gongsun Du, if they are a little unwilling to take refuge in Sun Ce and Sun Quan's brothers, then they don't have so many worries about taking refuge in Sun Jing.

After all, Sun Jing is so old, at least they intuitively have a stable psychology of trust, and Sun Jing is also the younger brother of Sun Jian, the lord of Jiangdong, relatively speaking, the weight is not light at all.

Sun Jing is also a vigorous and resolute person, not long after accepting the Pingzhou Thorn History Department, under the mention of Sun Quan and others, the first step was to directly finalize the Xuansu and the county guard of the Liaodong vassal state.

These two positions are actually specially reserved by Sun Ce and Sun Quan for the new Pingzhou Thorn Shi Wen dìng situation, after all, the new appointed, without the support of a few of his own henchmen, he cannot control the situation.

Sun Jing's decision is very decisive, one of the county guards of Xuansu County is a native of Liaodong, or a Liaodong native with the surname Gongsun, of course, this is not a person from the same line as Gongsun Du, but a small official of Liaodong County, Gongsun Fu.

Gongsun Fu is in his early forties this year, born in a poor family, full of poetry and books, extraordinary talents, used to be an official to Liaodong County, and later offended Gongsun Du, was demoted to the end, and became a small Xiangping County Ya Xiaoguan.

After Jiangdong entered Xiangping, the recruitment hall was set up, and he was depressed and was one of the first batch of people to eat crabs, coupled with his previous resume, it was not too much to do this Xuanwu Taishou, relatively speaking, he was Xuanwu Taishou, and he also recovered a lot of Liaodong people's hearts.

As for the candidate to preside over the subject state of Liaodong, Sun Jing gave him a henchman brought from Jiangdong, a member of the Sun clan, Sun Ling, Sun Ling is also a cousin of Sun Jing and Sun Jian, not to mention that they have been separated for several generations.

This can be regarded as a capable person, familiar with government affairs, and sleek, Sun Jian has always been outside, Sun Jing is at home, and Sun Ling has always assisted Sun Jing to protect the Sun family's foundation.

Since the people of the county guard have been decided, the next person is the captain, and the captain leads the troops, which is an important position, and he must be the most trusted person. After many discussions, and the opinions of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, who also solicited the opinions of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, were implemented one by one.

After the people of the county governors were selected, that is, the last thing, the reorganization of the somewhat chaotic soldiers and horses, and now the soldiers and horses in Liaodong are all in chaos.

The 20,000 Jiujiang soldiers must be disassembled, and then all the soldiers and horses in Liaodong must be mixed, and a branch of soldiers and horses guarding the counties in Liaodong will be re-established.

In mid-February, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu returned to Xiangping City from Xuansu and Liaodong vassal states, and began to distribute the forces of all parties in Liaodong, or to rectify all the troops under their command today.

This work is related to the stability of Liaodong in the future, so it is natural to be cautious, Sun Ce and Sun Quan have the assistance of Li Nie and Zhou Yu, two top strategists, but there is not much trouble, they scattered the soldiers and horses of Jiujiang one by one, and then combined with the soldiers and horses left behind in Liaodong, plus some radishes and sticks, the work of reorganizing is very smooth.

Jiujiang soldiers have no choice, Liu Miao is now in Wu County, becoming a teacher in Jiangdong Academy, the general trend has gone, and there is no power to turn over, and these remnants of them can only survive if they follow Jiangdong's arrangement.

And the Liaodong soldiers were originally surrendered soldiers, but now the Jiangdong where Gongsun Du went is not in Liaodong, so they have nothing to rely on.

Speaking of them now, they are all Jiangdong's captive soldiers, and they can only be mermaids, and Jiangdong actually doesn't treat them badly, on the contrary, they have also improved a lot of treatment, for them, Jiangdong can do it equally, what else is there to say.

Whether it is Liu Miao or Gongsun Du, the two princes, the treatment of the soldiers under their command is far inferior to that of Jiangdong.

Jiangdong for the soldiers under his command, whether it is the usual treatment or the pension after death, is the absolute best in the world, any Jiangdong soldier in the service, with military salary, at least can support the old and the young.

For example, today, human life is as cheap as mustard, and a person is already glad that he can eat enough to live, and the ordinary princes treat the ordinary soldiers under their command with a full meal at most, even if there is a military salary, a month's military salary is too low.

It's not that they pick the door, but because they don't have such financial resources, and Jiangdong is called a rich place, it's not a joke, the world is big, there are countless princes, if it is military strength and territory, Jiangdong is at most in the top five, but when it comes to food and economy, Jiangdong says second, no one dares to say first.

Only with financial resources and food can we afford to raise more soldiers and horses, this is an iron law.

Jiangdong is rich, and there are two reasons for this, the first is that Jiangdong already has this foundation, and the other is Sun Quan's cunzài, who has the thinking beyond this era and attaches more importance to economic development than ordinary people.

Although he did not dominate the economic development of Jiangdong, he was also a high-level decision-maker in Jiangdong, and Sun Jian had always been uncompromising on his proposals.

He attaches great importance to businessmen, and even with the Zhengdong General's Mansion there is also a kind of attention to the merchants of Jiangdong, and it has slowly formed an influence, so in recent years, the merchants of Jiangdong have been very active, and the businessmen are active, which can naturally drive the economic development of Jiangdong.

It is precisely because of Jiangdong's strong financial resources and food support that Sun Quan has the courage to take Liaodong, Liaodong is a bitter cold place, it is undeniable that there are a lot of resources here, and even the most elite cavalry, but the desolation here, even if ordinary people send it to the door, may not really dare to take it.

Liaodong is sometimes a burden.

With the current situation in Liaodong, at least within three years, Jiangdong must be supported by grain in order to develop steadily, and if you want to be self-sufficient, it will take at least three to five years.

Of course, this does not necessarily have to work food, Liaodong is still a pasture, and with the completion of the port of Jinjin, the trade route between Jiangdong and Liaodong has been completely connected.

Jiangdong merchants experienced the voyage of Yizhou and Zhoushan, now the fear of the sea is less and less, many people know that there are great business opportunities in the north, after all the navy through Liaodong, many merchants in Jiangdong began to form caravans, to and from the north, the goods of Jiangdong and the goods of the north of the trade.

In the East China Sea, in addition to the navy, more and more merchant ships are constantly sailing, and the shipyards in Jiangdong have already made a lot of money just by selling merchant ships.

After all, there were many wealthy Jiangdong merchants, including some wealthy families, who also formed caravans.

Interests can change many concepts, and even the family has to admit that in the face of huge interests, some principles have to be abandoned.

Jiangdong and Beidi are different from each other, and the price of the same item is very different, which represents a high amount of interest.

If a stone of good rice in Jiangdong can be sold for 300 to 400 yuan at most, but if this stone of rice arrives in Liaodong, it can have a price of at least 500 yuan or more, and the price difference between a horse in Liaodong and a horse transported to Jiangdong is at least more than half.

The benefits contained in it can make people crazy, and there are not a few people who can see such business opportunities.

Relatively speaking, the policy of the Zhengdong General's Mansion also supports this kind of goods trade, and some transactions are taxed.

That is, because this group of active Jiangdong businessmen continued to enter Liaodong, in just one month, a group of Liaodong merchants who were instantly driven by Haoqiang and businessmen, countless people in Liaodong began to become hot, and one by one Jiangdong who planned to do business in their hearts.

For them, Koto is a very wealthy place.

The days are getting warmer, and the land of Liaodong, under the leadership of Sun Jing, gradually stabilizes, and begins to enter a high-speed development mode.

……

Winter goes to spring, on the land in the north, layers of ice and snow begin to melt continuously, everything gradually recovers, everywhere seems to be a piece of spring, and the temperature begins to warm up day by day.

Youzhou, Pingjin port.

This is a brand new port, which is a port established by Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, and the geographical location is a little higher in Tianjin in later generations, and it is already close to Quanzhou County of Guangyang County.

However, in this era, Tianjin, a naturally formed port, has not yet taken shape.

After Gongsun Chan became an ally with Jiangdong, he built such a port to facilitate the return of merchant ships from Jiangdong and Youzhou, and he personally named this port Pingjin and relied on Quanzhou County.

It is because of this port that the merchants of Jiangdong, Youzhou, and even Jizhou are all in an endless stream, and even this small county town in Quanzhou has become prosperous and lively.

For this reason, Jiangdong also got a batch of merchant ships, especially sold to merchants in Youzhou, and Sun Quan also made a decision, directly sold to Gongsun Zhan's three small fleets, so that Gongsun Chan used it to manage the maritime order in Liaodong Bay, after all, there are disputes when there are contacts, most of Liaodong Bay still belongs to Youzhou, and Gongsun Chan will not let Jiangdong's navy station.

In order to connect the two places with a smooth trade route, the only way to do this was to sell a few fleets, so that Gongsun Chan also had a little naval strength.

"Whew!"

Sun Quan was dressed in a robe, standing on top of the port of Pingjin, looking at the caravans coming and going, and the endless flow of people, which made the sullen breath in his heart spit out directly, revealing a smile.

"Childe, what does Gongsun Chan mean?" Li Ne's figure stood beside Sun Quan, with a touch of coldness in his eyes, and asked in a low voice: "He doesn't want us to help!" ”

"It's not that he doesn't want to, but this old fox, he wants the white wolf with empty gloves, he doesn't want to pay the price, and he wants us to send troops to help him defeat Liu Yu's remnants."

Sun Quan's visit to Youzhou this time was actually to unite with Gongsun Zhan, and the remnants of Liu Yu who had begun to gather troops had begun to gather, but Gongsun Chan thought that he was coming to ask for help, so his posture was a little high, and he inadvertently suffered a lot of anger, and he was a little depressed in his heart, and said coldly.

In late February, after Zhou Yu and Sun Ce dealt with the reorganization of the soldiers, they completely alternated all the affairs of Liaodong, led the overlord iron cavalry, and hurriedly returned to Jiangdong under the bearing of the Tiger Fleet.

The wedding date of the two of them is approaching, and it is indeed a little inappropriate for him to stay here as a groom official, but Sun Quan wants to go back together, not enough that now Liaodong has a very important matter for him to come forward.

This is the last trouble in Liaodong at present.

Although Liu Yu was killed by Gongsun Zhan, Liu Yu has a deep foundation in Youzhou, and there are many loyal people under his command.

If he can't defeat Liu Yu's remnants, not only Youzhou, but also the land of Liaodong will not be peaceful, so he must help Sun Jing build Gongsun Zhan's line.

Only by uniting and defeating this force can Liaodong be completely stabilized.

"Childe, in fact, it should be his grandson Chan who is in a hurry, and we are not in a hurry, or we will delay it." Li Ne said softly: "I heard that Liu Yu's remnants are dominated by a person named Yan Rou, and Yan Rou's united Qi Zhou, Xianyu brothers and other Liu Yu's remnants, and the most important thing is that he also united with foreign clans, Xianbei people, and Karasuma people are all involved, the latest news, they have gathered at least 70,000 troops, in the Luhe area, want to start a war with Gongsun Zhan, I don't believe that he can sit still for long." ”

"If you don't wait, you can really calm down, after all, his Gongsun Zan is also the overlord of Youzhou, with only tens of thousands of troops, he may not be in his eyes, but I don't have confidence in him."

Sun Quan squinted, looking at the distant horizon of Pingjin Port, a touch of coldness crossed his eyes, and he said firmly: "Gongsun Chan can't be defeated yet!" ”

"Childe should be worried that Yuan Shao will take the opportunity to send troops, right?" Li Ne groaned for a moment, and understood what Sun Quan meant.

"Hmm!"

Sun Quan nodded and said, "Yuan Shao won't see this opportunity, won't he want to defeat Gongsun Zan with one blow?" Therefore, if Gongsun Zhan's forces were stalemate at Luhe, Yuan Shao would inevitably send troops. ”

"So what do we do?"

Li Nie's eyes moved slightly.

"We still have to talk, but we can't delay, Liaodong's forces have now been reorganized, it's time to make a move, after all, if Gongsun Chan is our ally, now Youzhou and Jiangdong can be regarded as interconnected, once he Gongsun Chan is defeated, Youzhou will be replaced, and the price we pay in Youzhou will become a piece of water."

Sun Quan said firmly.

"But his grandson Chan just doesn't cooperate!" Li Nie sighed and said: "It's the rat's eyes, we are obviously here to help him, but he thinks that we are here to ask for help, this time, there is some trouble." “

"Alas! Therefore, it makes sense that Gongsun Chan is indeed inferior to Yuan Shao, although Yuan Shao's personality is a little proud, but on the whole, he is still a qualified prince, very visionary, has a city government, and is decisive. Sun Quan squinted, if he could, he really wanted to meet Yuan Shao for a while.

"Indeed, when fighting for Jizhou in the past, it was seen that although Gongsun Chan was brave, but as a prince, he was indeed inferior to Yuan Shao, this time Luhe will definitely hold a lot of Gongsun Chan's troops, if Gongsun Chan can't put out Liu Yu's remnants of the entanglement as soon as possible in the battle of Luhe, his territory in Youzhou will definitely be annexed by Yuan Shao." Liu Ne carefully analyzed.

"So knowing that there is no benefit, we all have to come to help him, help him hold this territory, help him also help us, within three years, we have no ability to seize Youzhou, but Youzhou will be ours sooner or later, and it must not fall into the hands of Yuan Shao."

The sea breeze was a little cool, blowing Sun Quan's hair, and Sun Quan's eyes were firm, and he said.
