In the wooden house, Zhou Yu's eyes stared at the map, and only then did he say, "Zhongmou, are you laying out for Jiangdong's invasion of Jiaozhou in the future?" ”

Sun Quan, who takes one step and sees three steps, still admires Zhou Yu in his heart, after all, not everyone has such a vision.

Jiaozhou, located in the later Guangdong, Guangxi, and Vietnam areas, is remote outside the imperial court, and its development is not as good as the Central Plains, but it is connected to Jiangdong, Jingzhou, and Yizhou, and it is a good buffer zone for the tripartite forces.

Jiaozhou is sparsely populated, and has jurisdiction over seven counties of Nanhai, Cangwu, Hepu, Yulin, Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Rinan, but the total population is only more than one million, which is not as good as Yuzhang County before the division of Jiangdong region.

The current Jiaozhou, compared with the Central Plains, is somewhat backward, and it is also called a barbarian land by the Central Plains, a bitter cold.

"It's a must!"

Sun Quan grinned, nodded, and said: "The world is too chaotic, the princes of one side, the enemies of the four sides, if you want to take over the world, Jiangdong must be prepared to be the enemy of the world, our future enemy in Jiangdong is still Jingzhou, but if you want to make a move on Jingzhou, you must pull out Jiaozhou as soon as possible, this place in Jiaozhou will be Jiangdong sooner or later, and the layout will be good sooner or later!" ”

Sun Quan knew that if the six counties of Jiangdong breathed a sigh of relief and accumulated enough strength, I am afraid that the first place that Sun Jian would send troops to conquer was Jiaozhou.

If it is not considered the sea area of the East China Sea, Jiaozhou is the back of Jiangdong, Jiaozhou Nanhai County, Cangwu County and Jiangdong Huiji, Luling County are adjacent to each other, if Jiangdong wants to conquer Jingzhou, the first step must be to take Jiaozhou.

"Jiaozhou Assassin Shi Zhang Jin, although this person does not understand, but he also has a little experience, he is not a hero, and he is not good at management, and there is no general under his command, and another one, he actually rashly started a war in Jingzhou Liu Biao with his meager strength, and he will definitely be defeated."

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment, his eyes crossed with a light of contempt, and then he said coldly: "If the Jiangdong Army wants to capture Jiaozhou, there is no need to be so troublesome at all, just send troops to sweep it away." ”

"Zhang Jin is naturally not troublesome, but in Jiaozhou, the important thing is not this Jiaozhou assassin Shi Zhang Jin, but Jiaozhi Taishou Shixie." Sun Quan squinted at his amber crystal eyes and said indifferently.

On the surface, Jiaozhou is under the jurisdiction of Zhang Jin, but in fact, the biggest force in Jiaozhou is the Shi family, and the seven counties of Jiaozhou are headed by Jiaozhi County, of which four counties are in the hands of the people of the Shi family.

Xie, the head of the scholar family, is now Jiaozhi Taishou, studied under the sage of the court, the royal nobleman Liu Tao, this person is brilliant, knowledgeable, and broad-minded, not a simple prince.

Compared with Zhang Jin, the history of Jiaozhou's assassination, Sun Quan is more worried about this Jiaozhi Taishou Shixie.

"Shixie?" Zhou Yu was a little puzzled, and suddenly a flash of inspiration moved in his mind, and then he said: "You should be talking about the head of the Cangwu Shi family, Shi Xie, Shi Weiyan, who studied under Liu Tao." ”

Jiaozhou is located in a corner, not valued by the Central Plains, and the intelligence of Jiaozhou is not very clear, and now there is a little Jinyiwei in Jiangdong, and there are not many others, compared to the division of forces in Jiaozhou, Zhou Yu is not very clear.

However, Shixie is also a little famous in Shilin, and he is a rare scholar in the barren Jiaozhou, and he has heard of it a little.

"That's right, this talent is our biggest trouble in capturing Jiaozhou."

Sun Quan nodded, with some hesitation in his expression, sighed, and said: "Now our focus must be on Liaodong, I am worrying, how many people to send and who to send to Jiaozhou, as our vanguard army to fight with Jiaozhou in the future?" ”

"Now Jiangdong has no intention of turning his face with Jiaozhou, so the banner of this group of people can't be singled out, the number of people can't be too many, at most a thousand people, and it has to be dispersed, after all, Jiaozhou is not our territory, if there are too many people, let Jiaozhou have some precautions, this leader is even more difficult to choose, trouble!"

Sun Quan's amber crystal eyes, looking at the map, his eyes were gloomy, a touch of green light, he couldn't help but reach out and rub the temples of his little head.

"In what capacity do you want them to establish a ** state?" Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and asked.

"Thief!"

Sun Quan groaned and spit out a word: "Bandits, pirates, it's all right, as long as they can gain a firm foothold in the two counties of Rinan and Hepu and lay a foundation, they will be able to play a big role in the future." ”

This is the rear of Jiaozhou, if the rear falls, what will Jiaozhou use to start a war with Jiangdong.

"Zhongmou, in fact, we don't have such a person in our hands, but the lord should have it in his hands, you should report this matter to the lord and let the lord have an idea." Zhou Yu's eyes moved, and he gently reminded.

"That's right!"

When Sun Quan heard this, he had a flash of inspiration, only to find that his thinking had entered a dead end again, such a big Jiangdong, he thought about two or three kittens under his command, and naturally no one chose them.

If Sun Jian makes a move, Jiangdong has a lot of resources, and he can't find such a person, and he will have a dozen.

"In this way, I will immediately write a letter, and when the fleet returns to Dongzhi, I will have the envelope handed over to my father, and this matter will really be handled by him." Sun Quan immediately lay on the desk, lifted the brush, and wrote a letter to his family with a few strokes.

"Oh, just come out like this, I want my daughter-in-law, write another one!" Sun Quan has been out for a few months, and he hasn't seen Cai Yan for a few months, so he naturally thinks, but he rarely has the habit of writing letters, so he has never written letters to his family.

After the two letters were written, I immediately sent people to let the returning fleet bring them back to Jiangdong, and now Dongzhi and Yizhou have fleets coming and going every day, which is very convenient.

……

Under the alliance of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, in just five days, the last trouble in Yizhou was quickly resolved, and the last tribe of the Gaoshan tribe, the Bunun tribe, walked out of the mountains unconditionally and surrendered.

Subsequently, Yizhou continued to open up the wasteland in full swing, of course, not only the wasteland, but also found a few open-pit iron mines here, which made Lu Fan not say a word, directly set up a workshop here, and then informed Sun Jian, let Sun Jian from the Central Plains, invite a group of blacksmiths to manufacture weapons and equipment.

There is Longquan in Huiji, Longquan is the hometown of sword casting, the most is the blacksmith, Jiangdong has never lacked in this aspect, but relatively speaking, there are not many iron ores in Jiangdong, in fact, it is not much, but it is not easy to detect it.

In today's era, the means of geographic exploration are too backward.

The fleet of the Jiangdong Navy traveled back and forth, from the Central Plains to Yizhou, and it was not until the end of June that the population migration from the Central Plains to Yizhou stopped.

This time, in order to open up the big granary of Yizhou, Sun Jian also paid a lot of money, and recruited a lot of displaced people from the six counties of Jiangdong and the areas around Jiangdong, and recruited a total of 200,000 people to enter Yizhou and develop Yizhou.

With this group of population, the two counties of Yizhou, Dongyue and Gaoshan can develop rapidly, as long as the waterway does not stop and the support of Jiangdong continues, here can become a big granary in Jiangdong for three or five years at most.

If there are many people, it will naturally be a little chaotic, and the management should also be fine, Zhou Yu began to assist Lu Fan and set up the management shelf of the two counties of Yizhou, and Sun Quan and Sun Ce did not idle during this time.

The two brothers from the high mountain tribe of the young and strong, after careful selection, a total of 5,000 soldiers, the establishment of a Jiangdong mountain army, these mountain people have been living in the mountains and forests for many years, fighting with wild beasts, there is a wolf nature, Sun Quan named them the blue wolf army, in the Yizhou mountains and forests, began to train.

These thousands of people from the Gaoshan tribe are very familiar with the mountains, and they can run and fight in the mountains and forests at will, plus the weapons and armor provided by the Jiangdong Army, they are even more powerful.

I have to say that some of the people of the Gaoshan clan, Sun Quan and Sun Ce, the two brothers, have achieved twice the result with half the effort in training the Blue Wolf Army.

……

At the beginning of July, Zhou Yu led the fleet of the Jiangdong Navy to explore several voyages through Guò, connecting the waterways of Zhoushan and Yizhou, forming a triangle between Zhoushan, Dongzhi and Yizhou.

In mid-July, the development of Yizhou was on track, but it was constantly being cleared, and the general's palace sent a lot of officials to station, and there was Lu Fan to guard it, so they were at ease.

Zhou Yu left behind a fleet of 5,000 navies, mainly a Taihu building ship, three fighting ships, and 30 ships, forming a fleet that traveled between Dongzhi and Yizhou for a long time.

Nowadays, the Jiangdong Navy is more experienced in navigation, and the waterway is becoming more and more refined, from Dongzhi to Yizhou, it only takes three days to make a trip.

Zhou Yu took the Tiger, as well as a new building ship newly released in Wu County, formed a new fleet, and began to return, Sun Quan and Sun Ce led the car to get off the tiger, the blue wolf army, and also left Yizhou with the fleet, returned to Dongzhi, in Dongzhi they did not wait, and then they immediately led the army north, stationed in Zhoushan, and began to prepare for the north.

This time to the north, Sun Quan is preparing to land in Liaodong, landing in Liaodong will definitely collide with Gongsun Du, must be cavalry, in Dongzhi, Sun Ce took away his overlord iron cavalry, leaving a mountain army composed of high mountain clans, the blue wolf army to Tai Shici, guarding the Shanyue in the Dongzhi area, after all, relative to these Shanyue, the blue wolf army of five thousand is much better than the overlord iron cavalry of three thousand.

To put it mildly, with these 5,000 blue wolf army, give Tai Shici a year to mobilize all the county soldiers in the south of Huiji, I am afraid that the Shanyue of Huiji can be directly defeated.

……

Zhoushan, the first base of the Jiangdong Navy, is now a lot more prosperous than the desolation of the past, a Zhoushan county town has been established here, and the Tuntian has also been implemented, and many people have moved from Huiji, and even many caravans have come and gone.
