Chapter 461: Jiangnan
readx;
Under the iron hoof, the so-called Jiangdong elite has no power to resist at all!
Kong Yun's layout all along is to hope to fight a protracted war with the Heavenly Army!
In fact, it can also be guessed that southerners are not suitable for the north, but can northerners easily adapt to the south? At that time, the unadaptation of water and soil and various reasons will become the biggest weapon in the hands of the major princes in Jiangdong and the south!
Jiangdong is absolutely unstable in Kong Yun's eyes!
In that case, why not be prepared to give up beforehand?
As long as there is a strategic base in Yizhou, Liu Bei will have the opportunity to fly for nine days!
Of course, this opportunity is very small, so small that it is negligible!
"It's better to be defeated than to have no chance at all!" Kong Yun glanced at Hua Xin lightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info then turned to Liu Bei, and after a moment of silence, he said: "My lord, now that the Yizhou stronghold has been expanded, as long as we can negotiate terms with the natives of Yizhou and obtain a rough map of the entire territory of Yizhou, our army can completely occupy Yizhou!" ”
"And the occupation of Yizhou is not only from the military aspect, but also from the population and commerce and other aspects."
"In this way, the lord only needs to order the people of Jiangdong to be moved to Yizhou Island in batches."
"However, although Yizhou Island is large, it is an island after all, and various environmental factors will greatly drag down our development in Yizhou.
At this moment, Kong Yun's attitude is completely in the form of a dialogue between the courtiers and the monarch, that is to say, on the final issue of Yizhou's strategy, it can no longer be persuaded by brotherhood!
"What about the Gate Lords?"
It was Zhang Zhao who spoke. Zhang Zhao's status among the hundred officials is very high, second only to Kong Yun and Xiang Fei's prestige in Jiangdong. Although Zhang Zhao also knew the danger of the gate lord clan, after all, this kind of harm could not make Zhang Zhao raise the heart of warning, so in all possible circumstances, Zhang Zhao's first consideration was how to pull the gate lord clan into Liu Bei's chariot.
In any case, in the current Jiangdong, the gate lord clan is the real backbone, if the gate lord clan unanimously disagrees with the Yizhou plan, then even if Liu Bei wants to be autocratic, it is impossible!
In fact, at this moment, Zhang Zhao proposed the gate lord clan, why didn't he give Liu Bei and Kong Yun a warning? Let the two of them understand that if they can't pacify the gate lord clan first, then everything is empty talk.
Although Liu Bei is a prince, he should actually be regarded as the representative of the gate valve, if Liu Bei loses the support of the gate valve, then he will not have the ability to continue to maintain. Everyone understands this, even Liu Bei himself knows it very well.
So when Zhang Zhao raised the gate lord clan. Liu Bei's face changed drastically. Liu Bei is very helpless about the gate valve, many times Liu Bei can only choose to compromise, but this time it is about Liu Bei's life and death and Jiangdong's success or failure, will Liu Bei still compromise?
However, under the circumstances of the best possible, it is impossible for Liu Bei to fall out with the gate lord clan!
"If there is no large-scale epidemic in the first batch of young people who landed, the second batch will send the elite children of the gate lord clan to Yizhou, so that the role of protecting the gate lord clan can be achieved, and the interests of the gate lord clan can be completely tied to the lord, I don't know what Zibu thinks?" Without waiting for Liu Bei to exit, Kong Yun first spoke out to relieve Liu Bei. Since he was ready to persuade Liu Bei to make up his mind, how could Kong Yun not have thought about how to deal with the questioning of the Gate Lords clan?
"Yes"
Nodding, if things really went on as Kong Yun had imagined, Zhang Zhao really had nothing to say. After all, at the moment, when the Tianci army is in full swing and everyone in Jiangdong's gate lord clan is in danger, Kong Yun will send a safe Yizhou to the gate lord clan, will those family heads refuse?
The most important thing is that if Liu Bei really decides to develop Yizhou with the power of the entire Jiangdong, then Yizhou will definitely become the center of the gate valve to compete for the cake in the future, who doesn't like to divide the cake on it? Those Gatelord clans regard the land as their life!
"What is the best number of young men in the first batch?" Liu Bei looked at Kong Yun's well-established appearance, and he already understood that the Yizhou strategy had inevitably entered a new stage, but why didn't Liu Bei agree to all this earlier? Otherwise, no matter how prestigious Kong Yun was, it would be impossible for him to run this huge plan alone.
"One hundred thousand!!" The index finger went up, and Kong Yun said without the slightest hesitation.
In fact, in Kong Yun's imagination, 100,000 young people are far from meeting expectations, but after all, Jiangdong's vitality was greatly damaged after the Yellow Turban was raging, and it was impossible to recover in just over ten years. And the number of 100,000 is just the limit of Jiangdong's acceptance, if you want more, then you can only fill the number with the old, weak, sick and disabled.
"So many??"
"In this way, there will be several counties where the young people will be drained, right?"
"The lord is not proper, now that Jiangdong is steaming, if 100,000 young people are transferred, then the hard work of the past few years will be in vain."
The chatter and discussion went on and on. In Kong Yun's opinion, the number of 100,000 young men is very small, but in the eyes of civil and military officials, it is an astronomical number. Among these officials, especially the pawn officials in charge of production, are the most nervous, these 100,000 young people are related to the lifeblood of Jiangdong's production, in case they are really transferred!
"If there is no interruption, you will be disturbed!"
"Needless to say, everything should be done according to what the fourth brother said, not to mention 100,000, even if it is 200,000, as long as Yizhou can be turned into the rear of my Jiangdong, it is worth it!" Gritting his teeth, Liu Bei shook the hundred officials with a soft drink, and the decisive look made the civil and military officials look at Liu Bei's gaze changed a little.
Although Liu Bei's influence in Jiangdong is very weak, after all, Liu Bei is the lord, and the status of the monarch cannot be shaken by the officials for the time being, if it really angers Liu Bei, one or two families is really not enough for Liu Bei to kill.
"What? Do you have any opinions? ”
A slightly threatening tone spat out from Liu Bei's mouth. At this moment, Liu Bei's expression looked a little hideous! To be honest, giving up the hegemony of the world can be described as a fatal blow to Liu Bei, and making such a decision made Liu Bei's mentality a little unstable.
The long tone of "Nuo" rendered the complicated emotions in the hearts of civil and military officials. It seems that the general trend really can't be changed. But the present, including Kong Yun, couldn't be sure that Yizhou was really suitable for Jiangdong's rear? You must know that once the migration of 100,000 people begins, the manpower and material resources consumed will be unimaginable, and Jiangdong will not be able to stop even if it wants to.
All or nothing!! ――
Jingzhou, Jiangling City.
Jiangling, also known as Jingzhou City, is located in the most central location of Jingzhou and is the real political and cultural center of Jingzhou. Sun Jian, who once only occupied the four counties of Jingnan, has been unable to grow due to population and environmental restrictions, but when Sun Jian occupied Nanjun, his power suddenly expanded several times, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were recruited, making Sun Jian the first prince of Jingzhou.
Sun Jian, who occupied Nanjun, completely became a hegemon like a dragon entering the sea, and successfully occupied the entire territory of Jiaozhou, which made Sun Jian the second largest prince today, second only to Liu Tai in power and territory! Of course, there is a lot of water in this, after all, although Jiaozhou is large, but the population is too small and too small, according to the statistics of the local government, even if the descendants of the gate lord clan and tenant farmers are counted, the household is only 300,000.
If each household is calculated as three people, that is to say, the huge Jiaozhou has a population of less than one million! According to accurate data reports, Luoyang alone once had a population of millions, and Huacheng, the most prosperous city in Dahan, has a population
digressed, and his eyes returned to Nanjun for the time being.
Since Nanjun is the mansion of Jingzhou and the military and political center, there is no need to talk about population and commerce. And the most important thing is that the Yellow Turban ravaged Jingzhou that year, because of Ding Yuan's suppression, Jingzhou's loss was not large, and the wars in these years rarely affected Jingzhou, so that Jingzhou's population not only did not decrease, but increased a lot. Well, this is not Nanyang!
According to the statistics of the government at all levels in Nan County, there are at least 280,000 households in the 16 counties of the county, with a population of nearly one million. And this is still not counting the gate lord clan and the people of Xiangyang City! The rich Jingzhou is really unimaginable, no wonder Sun Jian was willing to take down Zhang Yang and occupy the rich Nanjun even if he was willing to risk the disapproval of the world. It's a huge cake that no one can resist.
In Gangneung City, the Jinjun General's Mansion is the most gorgeous and spectacular architectural complex. This is equivalent to the palace mansion, the luxury is dazzling, there are not only three main halls, but also more than a dozen side halls, each hall covers an area of a huge area, such a luxurious enjoyment, is it really what a general should have?
In fact, this mansion was not built by Sun Jian's order. As we all know, the number of relatives of the Han Dynasty is very large, so that there are a lot of royal families, most of these royal palaces are built by the imperial court, as a king, the palace can not be shabby, which explains the reason why the town army general's mansion is so luxurious. Since the royal palace is occupied by Sun Jian, it is obvious that King Gangneung has ascended to heaven.
Well, King Jiangling was not killed by Sun Jian!
Don't get me wrong, although the palace was occupied by Sun Jian, King Jiangling really did not die in the hands of Sun Jian. As early as when Sun Jian occupied Nanjun, the Jiangling Royal Mansion was already Zhang Yang's mansion. It is said that the owner of the palace was still Ding Yuan earlier, and it is unknown how Ding Yuan occupied the Jiangling Palace.
So far, the cause of King Gangneung's death is still a mystery.
But in the troubled times, are there still fewer dead royal families? In just a few years in the Central Plains, there have been more than a dozen royal families who have died, who would care about a mere Jiangling king?
The General's Mansion of the Town Army.
One of the grandest palaces in the mansion is called the East View Hall.
The east view hall has the main hall, the side hall is divided, and there is the east view gate in front of the main hall. There are hundreds of guards patrolling back and forth on both sides of the Dongguan Gate all year round, and these guards are the personal guards who ensure the safety of the Dongguan Palace.
Dongguan Hall is exclusive to Sun Jian, and most of the decrees of the four counties of Nanjun and Jingnan were issued from this place. Sometimes, the temple is celebrated as a place of festivities. For example, at this time, ninety percent of the officials in the entire Jiangnan were gathered in the Eastern View.
The festive atmosphere renders the Dongguan Hall extremely lively, and there are many cups and lamps everywhere, congratulating each other, and even mixing with the sound of some children's play. It seems that the situation in Jiangnan is really very different from Jiangdong, at least at the moment, the civil and military officials in the Dongguan Hall are not all Sun Jian's henchmen.
Sun Jian is a hero!
It's undeniable!
has been fighting on the battlefield all year round, and Sun Jian's tiger reputation has long been all over the world. Although it is not as good as Liu Tai and Lu Bu, he has always been regarded as the male master second only to Liu Tai.
Over the years, Sun Jiannan fought in the north and south, expanding the original land of the four counties of Jingnan by more than four or five times. And the once 30,000 or 40,000 soldiers and horses have also expanded to more than 100,000 today, it can be said that in the southern territory of the Han Dynasty, Sun Jian is a well-deserved first in terms of strength and territory!
Of course, although he is the first in southern Xinjiang, Sun Jian is not satisfied!
Recently, Sun Jian has been thinking about whether to go north!
What to do in the north?
Rescue Yuan Shu who was besieged by Lu Bu!
Yuan Shu is also powerful, with just a place in Wancheng, he has resisted Lu Bu for half a year, and it can be seen from here how rich Wancheng's reserves are! According to the grapevine, Lu Bu has plans to withdraw from the army, after all, half a year, Lu Bu's grain and grass have been exhausted, if the fight continues, the city will not be broken Lu Bu does not know, but Lu Bu will be starved to death.
Therefore, Sun Jian, the Jiangdong Tiger with a strong strategic sense of smell, set his sights on Nanyang!
Of course, Sun Jian would not have been able to show kindness to save Yuan Shu from danger. The reason why Sun Jian has the idea of going north is that the most important thing is the rich Nanyang! Nanyang is adjacent to Luoyang, although it is very dangerous, but it occupies a geographical advantage, as long as there are strong troops, it can completely curb Luoyang's southward pass, and block the Tianci army in Sili can not go south!
Moreover, Nanyang is the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, adjacent to Guanzhong and the Central Plains, and the indirect situation formed by the land of the four wars is to master the surrounding traffic arteries, making Nanyang a place after all! In such a situation, the population and wealth created are unbelievable, how could Sun Jian, who wants to occupy a place in the troubled times, let Nanyang go?
If it weren't for the fact that Nanyang was indeed a good place, then how could Lu Bu run to fight Yuan Shu to the death? Of course, because Lu Bu has no outstanding strategists so far, this battle can only be hard-hitting, which will cause a confrontation for nearly half a year.
Otherwise, with Lu Bu's momentum in the first battle, how could Wancheng resist Lu Bu's footsteps? Of course, Lu Bu was trapped in Wancheng, which was definitely great news for Sun Jian, and at present, Jingzhou was not under Sun Jian's control, and there were three places: Xiangyang, Jiangxia, and Nanyang.
