Afterwards, Qingji asked people to take out a map drawn by themselves.

Take it to the Fengtian Hall and spread it out, so that every minister can have a look.

I saw that on the map, every country that exists was marked, and it was very clear.

The proportions may not be right, but you can't be wrong about the place!

Qingji immediately picked up a brush, sketched on the map, and filled in the place name.

The Lingnan region of the Wu Kingdom, including Fujian, Jiangxi (partially) and Liangguang, was divided into six counties, namely Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County and Guilin County.

Its scope is similar to the original six counties of the Qin Dynasty, except that some of them are still occupied by the Chu people.

Qingji then divided three counties into three counties on the original territory of Wu, and the Wu country itself was Wu County; Huaisi area, for Surabaya County; The area of Chao and Zhongli is Jiujiang County.

In addition, the original Huiji County, the territory of Wu, has been divided into ten counties.

They are: Wu County, Huiji County, Jiujiang County, Surabaya County, Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County and Guilin County.

The existing territory of Wu roughly included the entire territory of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Fujian, Guangxi, and Guangdong in later generations, including Jiangxi, Shandong, Yunnan, and part of Vietnam.

Of course, at this time, the Wu army had not yet reached the Liangguang region, but Qingji had already regarded it as something in his pocket!

If the Huairou policy was adopted, it would not be a problem for Wu to establish a nominal rule there.

Looking at it this way, the state of Wu at this time can be called the largest country in the world, occupying nearly one-third of the land in China.

However, there are very few lands and populations that can be used by Wu in the real sense!

It is destined to be a long process for Wu to digest the six counties in the south, and it is unknown whether it will make wedding clothes for others!

After that, Qingji ordered the imperial historian Sun Wu to be reappointed as the general of Zhennan, the governor of the capital, and the governor of Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County and Guilin County.

"Oh no, my lord!"

What people never expected was that Da Sima Sun was the first to stand up and oppose it.

"Da Sima, why not?"

Qingji asked lightly.

"The king, the minister thinks that with Sun Wu's ability, he is really not worthy of such a big responsibility. General Zhennan has increased the title of governor of the capital, and his position is high and powerful, and there is no one in the whole country! ”

Sun Ping said embarrassedly: "The king, in the opinion of the minister, do not set up the Zhennan general, or divide the authority of the Zhennan general, so as to prevent it from becoming bigger!" ”

You must know that Sun Wu is Sun Ping's son.

Sun Jian is not unwilling to see Sun Wu being reused by Qingji, and becoming the first person under Qingji, with a high and powerful position.

However, this Zhennan general has increased the title of governor of the capital, and his power is really boundless!

Qingji can trust Sun Wu with confidence and reuse Sun Wu, but it is difficult to guarantee that Sun Wu, who has been in Lingnan all the year round, will not one day listen to the bewitchment of others and do something rebellious.

At that time, Wu Guo will not be able to do anything at all!

The distance is long, and the length of the whip is a factor.

If you send a large army to suppress it again, it will not be worth the loss at all!

This is why Qingji knew that Fucha had become a climate in the land of Lingnan and established the Southern Wu State, but he did not send troops for a long time.

Because of the away battle, Wu Guo couldn't beat the South Vietnamese who were familiar with the terrain at all!

"Great King, what Great Sima said is extremely true."

At this time, Dazai Jiza followed and said: "Sun Changqing is a person, the government and the opposition can see it, and he does have the style of a gentleman, and he will not be disobedient." ”

"It's just that General Zhennan has increased the title of governor and has very heavy authority, once the successor has the intention to make trouble, I am afraid that my Wu State will not be able to do anything."

"Please King Mingjian!"

General Zhennan increased the title of governor of the capital, which allowed Sun Wu to be in the six counties of Lingnan, just like the Emperor of the Soil.

Qingji can trust Sun Wu, but after Sun Wu's death, his successor cannot be trusted.

If Qingji had been one step earlier, Sun Wu would probably be the same as Ren Huan and Zhao Tuo at the end of Qin.

Ren Huan, the lieutenant of Nanhai County, saw that the Qin court was unable to look south, so he had the ambition of secession.

At that time, Qin Shi Huang set up three counties in the Lingnan region: Guilin County, Xiang County, and Nanhai County, all of which were controlled by the Nanhai Governor.

Later, Ren Huan was seriously ill, and he summoned Zhao Tuo of Longchuan and asked him to build a country according to the benefits of Nanhai County's mountains and seas, and immediately issued an appointment document to Zhao Tuo, asking him to act as the governor of Nanhai County.

Zhao Tuo then blocked all the traffic arteries on Wuling and cut off all contact with the Lingbei region.

At the same time, Zhao Tuo took this opportunity to kill the officials placed by the Qin Dynasty on trumped-up charges, and used his cronies as acting governors.

At that time, due to the chaos in the Central Plains, some Yue tribes in Guilin County and Xiang County also became independent and were no longer subject to the control of Nanhai Wei.

Zhao Tuo launched a war against Guilin County and Xiang County, and through military suppression, Zhao Tuo basically restored the three Lingnan counties placed by Qin and realized the unification of the Lingnan region.

Later, Zhao Tuo established the Nanyue Kingdom, surrendered to the Han Dynasty, and enjoyed the country for 93 years!

"The will of the widow has been decided, and there is no need to say more."

Qingji waved his hand and said: "General Zhennan, the one who increases the title of governor of the capital, is established for a special period, is not always placed, and changes every five years." The county guards, county lieutenants, and county captains of each county are also changed every five years, and they cannot be done for a long time. ”

"The king is wise!"

The ministers all said in unison.

Relatively speaking, the power of the county guard is extremely great, and Qingji has to guard against it.

A five-year tenure is neither long nor short.

If the tenure is too long, it may breed ambitions, and if the tenure is too short, it may also cause people's hearts to fluctuate and be difficult to govern.

Therefore, the five-year tenure set by Qingji is more reasonable.

"The king, my Wu army conquered Lingnan, and there were a lot of soldiers, about 10,000 people, I don't know what the king plans to do with these soldiers?"

Dazai Jiza asked.

Hearing this, Qing Ji only thought secretly for a moment, and then said: "For those who are demoted, they will serve ten years of hard labor." ”

"The widow wants to build a canal to lead directly to Lingnan, connect the Xiangjiang River and the Li River, and at the same time build a plank road from Huiji County to Lingnan!"

“……”

To build a canal and a plank road in one go, these are destined to be two very huge projects!

For this reason, including Ji Za, Kong Qiu and other ministers, they are all worried.

To really govern the land of Lingnan, even if it is nominally ruled, and then gradually rule directly, it will require Wu to invest a lot of money.

Not to mention the plank road, the so-called canal of Qingji is roughly the "spiritual canal" in the future.

In the battle of Qin's expedition to Baiyue, in order to solve the supply problems of grain, grass, equipment and other supplies of the Qin army, and complete the comprehensive conquest of the Lingnan region as soon as possible, the talented Qin Shi Huang ordered Shi Lu to organize and command 100,000 military workers to dig the Ling Canal.

As a result, a huge water conservancy project dug due to the needs of the war was opened in the south.
