Because in the next period of time, the trade with Xiqiang is just a relatively important matter, and there is no need to let Zhang Jiashi worry too much.

For Zhang Jiashi, this point is indeed more difficult, especially in many cases of grain transportation relief, which will also cause a lot of food consumption.

Zhang Jiashi was very helpless at this point, but he had no way not to do it. Because this practice is related to the foundation of the rule of the Great Qin Empire.

However, Zhang Jiashi was certainly quite unhappy, and so was the Great Qin Empire.

But compared to Zhang Jiashi and the Great Qin Empire, Qi and Chu, two countries that are still fighting, in fact, they don't necessarily have a good place to go. Even in this contrasting situation, it's a little worse.

Especially the Qi State, because of the continuous war, Tian Dan destroyed the foundation for the development of the Qi State after succeeding him as the king of Qi. After Tian Dan's soldiers were defeated and died, the Qi country fell into division, and Tian Rong and Tian Heng brothers could not take into account the development of people's livelihood. In this case, although the disaster is not too serious, Qi has become the most serious country in the affected area.

In the area of Hedong County, some of the surviving civilians planned to go into exile in Sanchuan County in every possible way. And for Zhang Jiashi, this can be regarded as an opportunity to gather the population. But in many cases, Zhang Jiashi was unable to accept the influx of displaced people.

After all, Zhang Jiashi has not been able to effectively rebuild the management system of Sanchuan County until now, and the relative lack of grassroots talents has still become a development dilemma for the Great Qin Empire.

Zhang Jiashi did not intend to use a large number of Shijia Haoqiang in the Guanzhong area, but because the Guanzhong area is also an area that has been seriously damaged in this regard, especially during the Huhai period, Zhao Gao and Hu Hai wantonly hunted down opponents, which is a very heavy blow to the Shijia Haoqiang in the Guanzhong area.

At this point, even Zhang Jiashi had to admit that Hu Hai and Zhao Gao did this to clear a considerable part of the obstacles to his rule of the Great Qin Empire, but more, Zhang Jiashi had to smile bitterly at this situation, because this also caused the lack of grassroots personnel under him, which was an important reason why it could not be effectively solved at this stage.

For Zhang Jiashi, the more serious problem is the difficulty of managing the newly occupied areas.

Because whether it is Nanyang County or Nanjun, it is basically an area that believes in the rule of the Chu people more. Because these counties and counties themselves have always been the sphere of influence of the Chu State.

Although these regions have been ruled by the Great Qin Empire for different lengths, even Zhang Jiashi cannot deny that these regions do have a stronger sense of identity with the Chu State.

Zhang Jiashi knew that the hometown of Chu that he occupied was actually a country that had been ruled and assimilated by the Great Qin Empire for a period of time, and the degree of resistance was relatively light, but more, whether it was the Jiangdong region or the Huai River Valley, this area was the real core area of the Chu State.

At least, this is what Xiang Yu thinks.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

In February 203 BC, the chaotic battle in the Qi region was due to the defeat of Tian Jiao and Tian Du respectively, and the brothers Tian Rong and Tian Heng were no longer able to support the war with Chu.

For this kind of thing, Zhang Jiashi said that this is an inevitable result.

It is true that the State of Qi does have major advantages that cannot be matched in many regions of the Great Qin Empire.

However, even Tian Rong and Tian Heng brothers can't deny one thing, that is, the current Qi State has fallen into an extremely depressed predicament because of the battle with the Chu State.

Zhang Jiashi did not think that if he could make a lot of preparations for the Third Crusade this year, Qi would be able to have too much resistance.

And the situation of Chu State is not necessarily better than that of Qi State.

Of course, the fiasco in the previous years forced Xiang Yu to consolidate his prestige as the leader of the alliance by dividing a large number of princes and kings.

And this fiasco, in fact, did not consume too much of the manpower of the Chu State.

But even Xiang Yu couldn't think of one thing, that is, the state of Chu can also be counted in the category of reckless military force.

After all, in this case, Xiang Yu is still waging war, which is a very heavy consumption for the national strength of Chu State.

And although Tian Heng and Tian Rong have been defeated repeatedly, the two of them are not the kind of people who are too easy to deal with.

In the nearly one-year Qi-Chu War, the Chu State consumed a very large amount of war. Moreover, in terms of the political foundation of the Chu family, this kind of national power consumption is even more serious.

It can be said that if Qi Guo has become a semi-crippled in other words, then Chu State may not be able to get anywhere, at best, it can be regarded as a seriously injured person.

Under such a premise, Zhang Jiashi can be said to be quite confident in the Third Crusade.

And from a strategic point of view, the Great Qin Empire has basically completed the encirclement of Qi and Chu, which is undoubtedly a crucial strategic layout for Zhang Jiashi.

It is true that in the Minyue area, he has not been able to extend his ruling area to this place, but more, the Chu State has also been unable to extend its tentacles to this country established by claiming to be a descendant of the Yue Kingdom.

On the premise that the situation in Qianzhong County went well, Zhang Jiashi planned to target Minyue next rather than mainly launch the Third Crusade.

......

Minyue, or Minyue State, located in present-day Fujian Province, China, was a state founded by the Yue people who were destroyed by the Chu State during the Warring States Period in Chinese history and the local Baiyue aborigines when they fled there, and survived roughly between 334 BC and 110 BC. Especially in the 60 or 70 years after 202 BC, the national strength reached its peak, and it was the most powerful country in the southeast of China at that time.

In fact, the Great Qin Empire did not exercise substantial rule over Minyue, because the situation of Minzhong County was very special.

According to some sources, Minzhong County was in 221 BC, after the unification of the Six Kingdoms, Qin sent troops to Fujian. In the second year, the "Minzhong County" was set up in the area where the Minyue people were active. At that time, the Qin Dynasty believed that Fujian was far away from the Central Plains and was a "country of deserted clothing", located in a remote area, with high mountains and dangerous roads, and the Yue people were strong and difficult to rule. Therefore, although "Minzhong County" was one of the forty counties of the Qin Dynasty, the system was different, and Qin did not send the commander of the guard to Minzhong, but only abolished the throne of the king of Minyue, and replaced it with the name of "Junchang" to let him continue to rule the place. Therefore, Qin only established Minzhong Prefecture in name only, but did not actually rule in Minzhong. However, in order to strengthen its control over Fujian, the Qin Dynasty on the one hand moved a large number of Minyue people to the northern part of Zhejiang Province and Anhui, Jiangxi and other provinces, and on the other hand, exiled criminals from the Central Plains to Fujian. On the one hand, this policy led to the integration of various ethnic groups, and on the other hand, it also caused the exchange of the original culture of the Minyue people and the Han culture.

In other words, Great Qin did not effectively rule Minzhong County at all.

And the thing that has not changed much from the historical trajectory of the world where Zhang Jiashi was originally located is that the current Minyue Wang Wuzhu has actually restored the title of king again.

(In 209 BC, a peasant uprising led by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang broke out, and people everywhere responded.) Wu Zhu led the Minyue soldiers from central Fujian to the north in response to the peasant uprising in the Central Plains and to fight against the Qin regime. In 206 BC, after the destruction of Qin and the outbreak of the Chu-Han War, Wuzhu went north to the Central Plains again, helping Liu Bang defeat Xiang Yu and contributing to the establishment of the Han Dynasty. In 202 BC, because Wuzhu helped Liu Bang defeat Xiang Yu, Liu Bang named Wuzhu as the king of Minyue and ruled Fujian, and the Xianyou area belonged to his sphere of influence. ）

Of course, this king Xiang Yu didn't admit it, let alone what the attitude of the Great Qin Empire was.

Therefore, in Zhang Jiashi's heart, attacking Minyue can bring greater effect to the Third Eastern Crusade.

Because once Minyue is occupied, then the Great Qin Empire will truly complete the strategic encirclement of Qi and Chu.

But Minyue is not easy to fight, because the folk customs of Minyue are also quite fierce, and more importantly, Minzhong County is also a mountainous area.

In view of this, Zhang Jiashi finally decided to launch a small-scale offensive against Minzhong County this year.

What he needed was a large number of Miao people who had surrendered and could be used as a source of soldiers.

Therefore, Zhang Jiashi ordered Ah Mian, the lieutenant of Qianzhong County, to recruit qualified soldiers in the Miao area.

In fact, the Miao people did not need to undergo too heavy training to allow Zhang Jiashi to form a corps capable of fighting in such a relatively low mountain area.

And Zhang Jiashi asked Ah Mian to arrange this arrangement in December last year.

If the situation permits this year, then the offensive against Minyue can also be officially launched after the autumn harvest.

This is also a kind of thinking of Zhang Jiashi during this period of time. Of course, whether this idea can be implemented depends more on how the autumn harvest will be this year.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

On June 2, 203 B.C., Zhang Jiashi received a very shocking news.

That is, Fan Zeng would actually die of illness at this time.

If it weren't for this news, Chen Ping's assurances should be credible, Zhang Jiashi would never believe that Fan Zeng would actually die of illness at this time.

Because Fan Zeng had already escaped the historical fate that should have belonged to him, because Fan Zeng was driven away by Xiang Yu in 204 BC, and on the way back to the nest, the old disease relapsed and died.

Of course, this matter is a good thing for Zhang Jiashi.

According to some detailed information, Zhang Jiashi quickly knew why Fan Zeng still couldn't see the changes in history.

Because in the second Eastern Crusade last year, Fan Zeng's suggestion was not only to make the Chu army lose a few other generals who could fight well, but also to bury the reserve force that was the largest in the Chu State. I heard that it was for this reason that Xiang Yu became more and more estranged from Fan Zeng.

Therefore, Fan Zeng's death this time is more likely to be filled with grief and anger and die of illness.

What kind of person is Fan Zeng for Xiang Yu?

Some people say that Fan Zeng is Xiang Yu's mastermind, and some people say that Fan Zeng is an elder of Xiang Yu.

But Zhang Jiashi has a completely different idea, that is, if there is no Fan Zeng, I am afraid that Xiang Yu would not be able to do many things so successfully.

In the Qingyu Lingshu, Fan Zeng's description is probably a passing one: Fan Zeng (277 BC, 204 BC), a native of the late Qin Dynasty. In the peasant war at the end of Qin, he was the main strategist of Xiang Yu and was respected by Xiang Yu as "Ya Father". In 206 BC (the first year of the Han Dynasty), he invaded Guanzhong with Xiang Yu and persuaded Xiang Yu to eliminate Liu Bang's forces, but it was not adopted. Later, at the Hongmen banquet, he repeatedly signaled Xiang Yu to kill Liu Bang, and made Xiang Zhuang dance the sword, intending to take the opportunity to assassinate, but it was unsuccessful. In the third year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang was trapped in Xingyang (now northeast of Xingyang, Henan), and used Chen Ping's plan to divide the relationship between Chu monarchs and ministers, and was suspicious of Xiang Yu.

If it weren't for Liu Bang using Chen Ping to separate the relationship between Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu, maybe Xiang Yu might be able to take Liu Bang's life in Rongyang City.

As for how terrible Fan Zeng is?

Zhang Jiashi didn't think that there was much difference between Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang, who was now an idle person.

In terms of advice, Fan Zeng is obviously more powerful than Chen Ping.

There are many allusions about Fan Zeng, but the most famous one is "Xiang Zhuang Dancing Sword, which is intended for Pei Gong." ”

"Historical Records" records: Pei Gong has come out, and King Xiang made Chen Ping, the commander of the capital, summon Pei Gong. Pei Gong said: "Today's person is out, and he has not resigned, what can he do about it?" Fan Xu said: "The big line does not care about the details, and the big gift does not give up." Now people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, so what can I say!" It is to order Zhang Liang to leave thanks. Liang asked, "What is the king?" and said, "I hold a pair of white bibs and want to offer the king of Xiang, and a pair of jade buckets want to be with my father." will be angry, dare not offer. The public dedicates it to me. Zhang Liang said: "I promise." "When it was, Xiang Wang's army was under Hongmen, and Pei's army was in Bashang, forty miles apart. Pei Gong rode in a car, got out and rode alone, and walked with Fan Xu, Xiahou Ying, Jin Qiang, Ji Xin and other four people with swords and shields. From the foot of Lishan, the road to Zhiyang line. Pei Gong said to Zhang Liang: "From this road to our army, it is only twenty miles." Sent me to the army, and the public entered. "Pei Gong has gone, and he is in the army. Zhang Liang thanked him and said: "Pei Gong is not a cup of ladle, and he can't resign." I would like to make the ministers offer a pair of white bi, and then worship the feet of the king, and a pair of jade buckets, and then worship the feet of the general. King Xiang said: "Where is Pei Gong'an?" Liang said: "I heard that the king intended to supervise him, and he got out and went alone, and he has already reached the army." King Xiang accepted it and sat on it. Yafu was hit by the jade fight, put it on the ground, drew his sword and broke it, and said: "Alas! Whoever wins the king of the world will also be the prince. I belong to the present captivity. ”

It can be seen that Fan Zeng has long known the danger of Liu Bang. However, because of Xiang Yu's personality factors and Liu Bang's good luck in this regard, he got Zhang Liang's help, otherwise, it would not be very difficult for Liu Bang to escape this catastrophe.

Fan Zeng didn't want to let Liu Bang go, but because of Xiang Yu's factors, he was obstructed many times, it can be said that it is really in the sky to make things happen, no matter how resourceful Fan Zeng is, I am afraid that he will not be able to realize his arrangement in this situation.

......

In the world where Zhang Jiashi lived, there were two versions of Fan Zeng's death:

The first is: at the beginning of 204 BC, the Chu army cut off the Han army's grain route several times, and Liu Bang was trapped in Xingyang (now Xingyang City, Henan Province), so he asked Xiang Yu for peace. Xiang Yu was about to agree, but Fan Zeng said: "The Han army is easy to deal with, if you let them go now, you will definitely regret it in the future." So Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng hurriedly attacked Xingyang. Liu Bang's adviser Chen Ping seized Xiang Yu's suspicious and arrogant characteristics and used counter-plots. It separated the relationship between Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng. Xiang Yu's envoy came, Liu Bang asked someone to prepare a sumptuous feast, holding the delicacies and about to offer, looked at the envoy carefully, and deliberately pretended to be surprised and said: "I thought it was the messenger of the father, but I didn't expect it to be the messenger of King Xiang." Then he changed the delicacies and changed them to coarse food for Xiang Yu's messenger to eat. The envoy came back to report to Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu suspected that Fan Zeng had an affair with Han, and gradually took away Fan Zeng's authority. Fan was furious and said, "The overall situation of the world has been decided, and the king can do it himself." Please give me this old bone and return it to my hometown. Xiang Yu allowed Fan Zeng to resign. Fan Zeng set off, but before he arrived in Pengcheng, he died of a poisonous sore on his back.

The second is the rumor of Fan Zeng's fraudulent death: folk legend has it that Fan Zeng cheated to death, and in fact he had come to Jiusha Mountain in Tiantai County, Zhejiang Province, by stone boat, and lived incognito in the cave, treating people's diseases, building bridges and paving roads for pedestrians. But he still cares about state affairs, when the news of Xiang Yu's self-slaughter of Wujiang came, he cried: "If you don't listen to me, you will end up today!" So people knew that he was Fan Zeng, but he said, "Fan Zeng died early in Pengcheng, where will he come here!" Soon people went to the cave and didn't know what to do.

Zhang Jiashi was worried that Fan Zeng would play tricks to death, and then let him rashly attack the state of Chu in one fell swoop.

However, Zhang Jiashi thought about it and couldn't help but show a hint of self-deprecating laughter, because for him, whether Fan Zeng's death was real or fake, he would not launch a war against Chu so rashly. After all, after being in power for such a long time, Zhang Jiashi knows one thing very well, if you want to win the war, the most important thing is to make all preparations as much as possible.

Obviously, Zhang Jiashi did not have the conditions to launch the Third Eastern Crusade at the moment, so even if Fan Zeng died, he would not rashly attack the Chu State.

And Zhang Jiashi then thought of a very interesting thing, that is, even if Fan Zeng really cheated to death, how did he know that he actually attached great importance to Fan Zeng?

If Zhang Jiashi is not mistaken, he did not say anything about Fan Zeng in detail.

If Fan Zeng relied on his own conjecture to think of such a point, it is obvious that Zhang Jiashi would not believe this rather nonsense idea.

Therefore, Zhang Jiashi temporarily suppressed the news of Fan Zeng's death, because he didn't think that he would make a big deal about this matter.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

In July 203 BC, Zhang Jiashi mobilized Amian and three troops stationed in Jiujiang County and Nanyue County, totaling 80,000 people, to launch an offensive against Minyue.

The original Jiujiang County garrison mission was to mobilize a unit from Guining County and Changsha County to form a new Jiujiang County Army.
