Yangzhou's current Yangzhou situation is a bit weird, it should have been the Shouchun of Yangzhou Mu Liu Beizhi, but in the hands of Cao Ying, not only Shouchun, the entire Jiujiang County is under the rule of Cao Ying, it can be said that the reward of Emperor Ling, Yangzhou was cut in half with a knife, with the Yangtze River as the boundary, the north bank is Cao Ying's territory, and the south bank is Liu Bei's territory.

In this regard, although Liu Bei was very dissatisfied, but he did not dare to resist, Liu Bei knew that his bottom was just because of the troubled times and got cheap, if he followed the normal route, he did not have a career of one or two decades as an official eunuch, and he wanted to sit on the position of state pastor, it was simply a delusion, of course, Liu Beizhi could have all the current achievements, and the greatest credit should be attributed to Kong Yun, Liu Bei's fourth brother!

The rich Shouchun City took Cao Ying's territory, and in desperation, Liu Bei could only move the governance office to the Moling City of Danyang County, which is the county capital of Danyang County, also known as the Stone City, located on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

The scale of Moling City is not very large, well, not as good as the era of Sun Quan as the emperor, after all, it has been expanded several times at that time, the name is not Moling, but Jianye City, after Liu Bei wrote the book, Moling was officially confirmed as the Yangzhou Governor, Liu Bei's state pastor's mansion, naturally also began to build in Moling, but Liu Bei is too good at buying people's hearts, and actually ordered the construction of the mansion to distribute the money and grain to the victims everywhere, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Yangzhou is no longer the Yangzhou it once was, mourning is everywhere, and there are frozen bones everywhere on the road.

Most people agree with Liu Bei's good deeds, but after agreeing, they also have to solve the problem of Liu Bei's mansion, after all, Liu Bei is a Yangzhou pastor, it is impossible to sleep on the streets, and finally after many discussions with Liu Bei's small group, the state pastor's mansion was set in the original Danyang County Taishou Mansion, the original owner of Danyang County Taishou Mansion was the gate valve of Danyang County, as early as the early days of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Bao was killed and set an example by Zhang Bao, although today's Taishou Mansion looks very bright on the outside, but it is a bit unsightly inside, and there are ruins everywhere, very desolate.

Of course, even if it is desolate, there is a solution, Liu Bei ordered the mobilization of hundreds of peasants and workers, in just over 20 days, the Taishou Mansion was repaired, it looks very good, plus the original decoration, it can also be said to be magnificent.

Liu Bei's small group, today are gathered in the lobby of the state governor's mansion, Liu Bei, who has been in Yangzhou for more than two years, can now be said to be full of talents, everywhere are some literati and some warriors who look more strong, crowding the huge mansion.

The two columns of civil and military are separated, the first place in the text is naturally Kong Yun, the first place in the military is Xiang Fei, and behind Xiang Fei is a large group of generals such as Fan Hong, of course, there are no fewer officials in the civil and military columns, but they are not as eye-catching as the generals.

Liu Bei sat high in the first place, holding a cup of fragrant tea in his hand, closed his eyes, and took a sip of the pleasant fragrance of tea from time to time, looking very enjoyable, suddenly, I saw Liu Bei's eyes open, looked at Kong Yun on the right and said: "Shui Yu, in the past two years, how has the livelihood of the people in each county recovered?" Will it be enough for the people to be fed? ”

Hearing Liu Bei's question, Kong Yun did not have the slightest abnormality, glanced around, and found that most people's eyes were focused on themselves, smiled faintly, and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, after the promulgation of the new policy in Yangzhou, in the past two years, the people have been in peace and contented with farming at home, and the harvest of fertile land in various places is very good. ”

New! Since Liu Bei occupied the name of Yangzhou pastor, began to implement the new policy in Yangzhou, of course, Liu Bei's new policy is impossible to overthrow the door valve, because the door valve, is not Liu Bei can afford to provoke the existence, Liu Bei adopted the new policy, most of them are in the northern Xinjiang new policy to strip the method, one of the most valued by Liu Bei is the Tuntian soldier system, Tuntian soldiers can not only be recruited as soldiers in wartime, but also can be used as farmers for the government in leisure time, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, Liu Bei also copied a lot of other new policies in northern Xinjiang, such as because of Zhang Bao's cholera, many gate valves in Yangzhou were wiped out, leaving countless fertile land to be recovered by the government in vain, using these obtained land, Liu Bei distributed them to the people around the country to plant grain, the harvest was divided into fifty-fifty, and the taxes were all counted, so that not only the people could fill their stomachs, but Liu Bei's regime had a large number of grain and grass suppliers, and there was no time limit, so it could be said that it could not be better.

Of course, Liu Bei in the grain and grass division, than the northern Xinjiang charged two percent more, this in private has also been complained about, in northern Xinjiang, the people lease the government's fields, only need to hand over thirty percent of the grain, after all, the population base is large, thirty percent of the grain is already astronomical, and the remaining seventy percent, not only can the people fill their stomachs, but also a lot of income, but in Yangzhou, because after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the population has decreased sharply, if only three percent of the harvest is collected, it can not be supplied to the army at all, and the people live fifty percent of the food to fill their stomachs at most, as for the income, let's forget it.

"Lord, now that my vitality in Yangzhou has recovered a lot, is it time to consider expanding the army?" As soon as Kong Yun's words fell, and many officials had not come to their senses, Xiang Fei, the top military general in Yangzhou, suddenly said to Liu Bei.

Now Yangzhou has 100,000 soldiers, 30,000 garrisons in Danyang, and the rest are in the counties near Shanyue in the south, because the biggest drawback of Yangzhou is Shanyue, if you don't guard the border, it will bring huge losses to Yangzhou at any time, with Yangzhou's current civil and material resources, raising 100,000 soldiers and horses, it is already the limit, but obviously, Xiang Fei is not satisfied, because the defense line in the south of Yangzhou is too long, and 100,000 soldiers and horses can only defend.

"Expansion??" Most of the Wenchen generals couldn't help but exclaim softly, in fact, during this period of time, there have been a lot of rumors that Liu Bei is going to expand the army, but no one has really put it forward, originally everyone thought it was just a rumor, but it didn't come to an end, today Xiang Fei actually mentioned it in public, could it be that those rumors are true?

"It's not proper, my lord, the expansion of the army is a big matter, and it must not be done lightly, otherwise the situation that I have managed to establish in Yangzhou will collapse." Suddenly, I saw a young civil official behind Kong Yun get up in a hurry, and said to Liu Bei, looking very red, he should be in a hurry.

"Zhang Zhao, you are alarmist! If the army is not expanded, my Yangzhou will have to be beaten passively, and the annual consumption of military spending will only be more, and the burden on the people will be heavier, don't you understand? Xiang Fei got up angrily, pointed at the young man and scolded!

Zhang Zhao!! Zhang Zhao, who Liu Tai had recruited for so long and refused to go to the post, actually appeared under Liu Bei! It seems that Zhang Zhao's philosophy of doing things is really different from the policy of Northern Xinjiang, otherwise Zhang Zhao would not have abandoned Liu Tai and followed Liu Bei, as long as he was not a fool, he would not have chosen so.

In this era, there were many literati who did not agree with Liu Tai's concept, because in Northern Xinjiang, not only Confucian protégés could be officials, but disciples of other schools could become officials, such as the status of the Mo family in the Ministry of Industry in Northern Xinjiang, which is not a secret.

As a son of Confucianism, Zhang Zhao couldn't stand Liu Tai's political concept of a hundred schools of thought, so he chose Liu Bei, evaded Liu Tai's recruitment many times, hid in the deep mountains and old forests of Yangzhou, waited for the opportunity to go out again, or died in the mountains and forests for the rest of his life.

Liu Bei's recruitment of Zhang Zhao is a very coincidental thing, the Yangzhou regime has just been established, and there are famine people everywhere, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, Liu Bei also has two hands and two feet, where to find so much food to save the people from fire and water, at the beginning, even Kong Yun was embarrassed by no way at all, and could only sigh all day long, watching the situation become more and more erosive.

Liu Bei, who was troubled, took a bow and arrow, rode a war horse, took a hundred guards, and went into the deep mountains and old forests east of Moling City to hunt, and went farther and farther, Liu Bei and his party actually walked away from Moling City and entered the mountains and forests of Biling County in the east of Danyang County.

The result of the matter is obvious, the turtle to the king of the eight, met Zhang Zhao, at first Liu Bei just wanted to beg for a bowl of water to drink, when talking, found that Zhang Zhao's conversation was extraordinary, and he also had a unique insight into the management of the miserable situation in Yangzhou, Liu Bei suddenly met a confidant, and asked Zhang Zhao to come out of the mountain on the spot, originally Zhang Zhao did not agree, after all, as a literati, he had to be reserved when he went out, but under Liu Bei's dead face, Zhang Zhao was helplessly defeated, and followed Liu Bei's small army out of the mountains and forests.

After Zhang Zhao became Liu Bei's subordinate, he came up with several good ways to solve Yangzhou's predicament, what way? One of the most important is to encourage the people of Yangzhou who are located on the seaside to fish, and the people will not be uncommon in fish, after all, a large part of Yangzhou is adjacent to the Yangtze River and the inland sea area.

But Huaxia is a farming nation, hunting fish and meat, is not very good, of course, in the area near the sea, fishermen are also very many, in order to solve the embarrassing situation that the people will not fish, Zhang Zhao in Liu Bei's permission, personally went down to various places, from the fishermen's mouths to learn the experience of fishing, and then the experience was copied on paper, and then sent to the printing house in northern Xinjiang to open to the outside world to print it out, distributed to the people in Yangzhou around the river and the sea, if you can't understand the words, but also sent someone to explain, It's very thoughtful.
