Chapter 36 The Current Situation of Changchun

He Xi originally wanted to go to Sanhekou. But he was stopped by Zhang Yu.

Today's Changchun Division, five guards and twelve cities. occupied. The land along the Songhua River west of Changbai Mountain, of course, this piece of land is quite large, and the five guards and twelve cities are scattered on it, but they are just dots.

If they are not connected by water, they cannot form a whole at all.

Not to mention, a lot of the buildings are temporary.

Many of the key so-called castles are now just wooden structures, which are probably castles in Japan, but in China they are just temporary camps. Not to mention, the entire Changchun Metropolitan Division's troops are very tight.

Tens of thousands of troops were stationed in various places, and there was also a mobile force in the hands of King Yan.

Zhang Yu was stationed in Changchunwei, which was the logistics center of the entire Changchun Metropolitan Division, and all the grain and grass were transported from here to the guards. Therefore, Zhang Yu did not dare to leave easily. And the Mongols have been eyeing each other. The big and small friction is constant.

Of course, there is no big war.

On the one hand, the Tartars no longer have the ability to organize a larger-scale war with the base. On the other hand, King Yan is ready to give Tartar a ruthless blow first. Before that, there was no intention of the Tartar War. More energy is focused on consolidating the foundation of Changchunwei.

Build cities, open up wasteland, and store food.

Although the fighting is not fierce, the risks are still there.

Zhang Yu counted the strength in his hand. To make He Xi foolproof, there must be at least 3,000 escorts. Because with only 3,000 people escorted, even if surrounded by the Tartar army, 3,000 soldiers could stalemate for a long time.

Until reinforcements arrived.

But does Zhang Yu have it in his hands?

No. Three thousand soldiers. In the Ming Dynasty, it is not a heavy army, but under the tight strength of the Changchun Dusi, it is difficult to coordinate. Therefore, Zhang Yu did not dare to put He Xi in this risk.

He Xi had a problem in the territory of Changchun Dusi, which was a headache for King Yan and Zhang Yu.

Therefore, Zhang Yu is absolutely unwilling to take risks.

He Xi didn't force it.

Unnecessary risks are still not needed.

Changchun Wuwei, Changchun Wei, Long Anwei, Penn Wei, Zhaozhou Wei, Kaiyuan Wei. These five guards are distributed along the Songhua River. The distribution of people also varies greatly.

Changchunwei was built with Changchun Fort as the core, and several castles of various sizes were built along the river. Long Anwei is in the north of Changchun, down the river dozens of miles away, to Penn Wei, there are several rivers from Penn Wei into the Songhua River. Pennsylvania is also a hub for water transportation, and the easternmost castle has been built at the foot of Changbai Mountain, and the timber from Changbai Mountain is transported along the river to Penn City. And that's exactly what happened.

Pennzhou Wei, Zhaozhou Wei, and Kaiyuan Wei are all wooden cities built with big wood.

Downstream makes it easy to transport timber. It is also convenient for the rapid construction of castles.

The core city of Zhaozhou Wei is the mouth of the three rivers. The Songhua River is divided into the north source and the south source. The southern source originates from the Changbai Mountain, flows all the way through the Northeast Plain, and gathers several tributaries. And the north source is the Nenjiang River.

And Zhaozhou Wei is the place where the north source and the south source meet.

It is also the closest place to the Tartars, and from here it is not far from the Tartar court in the northwest direction.

Naturally, it is also the place of the greatest military pressure.

And the last Kaiyuanwei is in the east of Zhaozhou Wei. The geographical location is not far from Harbin. And Kaiyuanwei is the biggest difference from the other four guards.

The first force was sparse, with only a few thousand men. There is no additional reinforcement.

Second, the territory is vast. That's right.

With a wave of his hand, King Yan replaced Kaiyuan Road in Liaoyang Province of the Yuan Dynasty with Kaiyuan Wei.

Naha's title in the Yuan Dynasty was the King of Kaiyuan. His Kaiyuan King refers to Kaiyuan Road, Liaoyang Province. Kaiyuan Road has a vast area under its jurisdiction. In later generations, all of Heilongjiang, part of Jilin, and most of the outer northeast were all under the jurisdiction of Kaiyuan Road.

There are many overlaps with the Daming Nuer Gandu Division.

However, it's the same as the slave Gandusi. In these places, the Yuan Dynasty did not exercise effective rule, there were too many various tribes, and it was only a kind of nominal rule. Now, even if King Yan reaches here, it is impossible to change all this.

Therefore, the main purpose of Kaiyuanwei is not to fight. It's about doing business, doing business. Make friends. Let the tribes around the country get rid of the Yuan Congming.

This one thing is not too difficult.

There is also a role for Yang Zhen in this.

When He Xi was in Nanjing, Yang Zhen was not idle.

From the Heilongjiang River, he went upstream, did business with many tribes, and established a lot of business inns. After King Yan officially opened the Changchun Capital Division, Yang Zhen sent many people to follow King Yan to the north. It even provided a lot of financial support for Yanwang.

King Yan also reciprocated the favor and gave Yang Zhen a lot of support.

Of course, He Xi also knows that many things behind this are done for He Xi to see.

Today, Genyosha has become the largest business in Northeast China, and in the fur business, it is the first outside the customs area. But it is not only involved in the fur business, it can be said that as long as the tribes in various places want, the Xuanyang Society can provide it, and even in many places, it is regarded by the local tribes as representatives of the Ming Pass.

In Kaiyuanwei, there is the largest semicolon of the Xuanyang Society.

This is also Yanwang opened up the entire Northeast Basin, from the Liao River to the Songhua River, from the Songhua River to the Heilongjiang River to the sea. There is no place in the basin that is under Mongol rule. Of course, many places were not under the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Every time a merchant travels, he has to hire a large number of guards to protect him. But at least it's already possible to go.

And all this adds to the prosperity of Changchunwei.

Without him, the entire Changchun Dusi is a line, distributed along the waterway, and Changchun Wei is the head of this line. The larger the spread below, the greater the demand for Changchunwei. Although this year, Changchun Dusi has already harvested some grain in some places.

But compared to the consumption of the entire Changchun Division.

It's also a drop in the bucket.

One can even say that, from now on. In the military operations of the entire Changchun Metropolitan Division, the greatest benefit was not from the Ming Dynasty, but from the Xuanyang Society.

Genyosha, which could only be operated by sea, can go hand in hand with the river and the sea, plus the blessing of capital and background. There is also a first-mover advantage. Genyosha flourished. Growing stronger. Of course, Yang Zhen's talent is indispensable.

As mentioned earlier, talents are cultivated.

Yang Zhen may have been beaten to death by Song Ne in history, or he was expelled from the country, and he was unknown to everyone. All my life is just messing around in the countryside. But under He Xi's hands, he experienced a frenzy of opening the sea and made rapid progress in business. Participating in upper-class politics is He Xi's economic assistant in many things in Liaodong, and what he has done in the past few years is something he has never experienced in his previous life and dare not imagine.

Yang Zhen may not be a wizard in business. But if he relies on political, economic and other advantages to open up the market and create a set of business systems, he has done it for the second time. Familiar with the road, easy to navigate.

Don't underestimate the profits of the fur herb business.

You must know that before Nurhachi's rise, the main goal of the war with the Jurchen tribes was to monopolize the commercial interests outside the Guan. It was also some profits that allowed Nurhachi to gather the initial team.

Today, the Outer Northeast is naturally not as good as Nurhachi's then, but its share is quite large. He Xi estimated that the overall scale of the Xuanyang Society exceeded one million taels.

Political dividends, technological advantages, emerging markets, all together, it's so easy to make money.

This matter, if He Xi hadn't come to Changchun, he wouldn't have known about it at all.

Without him, he transferred all the profits of Jinghai Firm back then. In this matter, Princess Anqing was very dissatisfied. Therefore, this time, he didn't care much about the business of Xuanyang Society, and when He Xi was in Nanjing, he was very busy. There is also no time tube.

Moreover, Xuanyang Society took the road of Yanwangmen, and there was no need for him to write a letter to his fourth brother by Princess Anqing.

Although it is said that King Yan endorsed the Xuanyang Society, at the same time, King Yan established the Changchun Capital Division in the barren Northeast, which also needed a lot of support. However, Yan Wang lacked commercial power, and Xuanyang Society also helped Yan Wang a lot.

But no matter what, He Xi had to admit that he had the benefit of King Yan. This favor, he can't be treated as not knowing.

He Xi secretly said in his heart: "It seems that this time King Yan is busy, I can't help it." But I don't know how much King Yan wants to do. ”

Some people died, but not completely......
