Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 891

Sun Quan took the remnants of his troops into exile and his future was uncertain. Before he left, he ransacked all parts of Wu County like robbers. He killed Zhu Zhi, the prefect who had served for 30 years, Wu Can, the prefect of Kuaiji, was recruited by Lu Xun.

In September, Sun Quan managed all the counties and counties in Yangzhou that he had managed for 20 years, and all of them changed their ways and became ministers of the Han family.

During this period of time in Lantian, he often had contact with Gu Yong, Zhang Wen, Zhang Zhao and others, and gradually found a balance between the Jiangdong and Huaisi factions. After Gan Ning and Lu Xun led their troops back to Jianye, they immediately announced the appointment of the prefects of each county. .

Wu Can, the former prefect of Kuaiji, led the county as before. He appointed Kan Ze as the prefect of Wujun, Lu Ji as the prefect of Danyang, Yan Qian as the prefect of Yuzhang, Tan Dingzhou as the prefect of Luling, and Gan Ningyao as the prefect of Lujiang.

In addition to Lujiang County, which was still in the hands of the State of Wei, among the five counties actually controlled by the original Soochow, three counties were handed over to the Jiangdong gentry.

Tan Dingzhou managed well in Longchuan and Jieyang, and Lantian fulfilled the promise made many years ago by the prefect. Tan Dingzhou became the pride and role model of the Yue people in Jiaozhou. , Gradually also had an impact on Yamagoshi.

More than 50 officials were selected by each yamen, and under the leadership of Lanyuan, they have already set off for Guangzhou. The waterway from Jianye to Guangzhou is long and detours around Jiangxia, Changsha, and Lingling. It will take several months to go back and forth, so Lantian recommends using The combination of water and land, that is, Dai Liang's "invasion" of Guangzhou's marching route.

The waterway starts from Jianye, enters Ganshui through the Yangtze River, and arrives at Nanye County, then goes ashore to Qujiang, Zhenyang, crosses Weipuguan and enters Jiaozhou. It takes no more than a month for one side.

Because Lantian's "base camp" is in Jiaozhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou will have very close contacts, and Luling, as a "water and land transportation hub", is extremely important in terms of geographical location, and caravans will accelerate the prosperity of this area. Lantian wants to use his own reasons, but unfortunately neither the Jiangdong gentry nor the Huaisi faction can see through.

Gan Ning rested in Jianye for a few days, and Lantian sent him to lead the navy to Ruxu, waiting for an opportunity to launch a small-scale attack on the Lujiang River, similar to Zhang Fei's bluff in Tianshui, exhausting Wei's army with small consumption, while the counties of Yangzhou Take time to recuperate.

Commander Gan Ning's [-] navy army to destroy Wu was composed of Jiaozhou, Wuchang, and Jiangxia. Now that there is no fighting on the Yangtze River, Jiangxia and Wuchang lost the necessity of garrisoning troops. Lantian arranged for Su Fei to bring Jiangxia soldiers to assist Xiangyang. Suppress the small number of naval troops stationed in Wancheng by Wenpin.

After the war, Mi Fang and Hao Pu returned to Changsha and Lingling with the county soldiers. The only troops that Lantian could trust in Yangzhou were the Zhanzhen Army, Jiefanwei, and Gan Ning's Ruxu Navy. The total strength was only [-]. People, and there were still [-] soldiers from Soochow, how to arrange these soldiers is still pending.

At the beginning of Lantian's entry into Jianye, he made it clear that he would abandon private affairs and transfer to public affairs. He considered that Zhu Huan, Quan Cong and other surrendered generals lacked prestige, so he had to wait for Lu Xun's return.

Lu Xun had only served as the governor for a few years. Although his seniority in the army was not deep, the Huaisi veterans died in battle one after another, and the Jiangdong gentry made a lot of noise afterwards. Driven by many factors at the same time, Lu Xun finally became the leader of the Jiangdong army. leader.

In the past few years, it was not easy for Lu Xun when he was in office, because Lan Tian continued to use tricks in the dark, Sun Quan never really trusted him, on the surface he respected him as the governor of the Eastern Wu, and he kept supporting people to divide Lu Xun's military power behind his back. In the decisive battle of the Yangtze River, the actual commander was also Sun Quan himself.

Zhang Zhao surrendered, his family fell, the water battle was defeated, and Sun Quan sent wine
After being hit one after another, Lu Xun was on the verge of collapse, but his long-term perseverance made him survive. After surrendering, he fought side by side with Gan Ning, and experienced the harmony that Jiangdong did not have, so his mentality changed a lot.

On the second day of the celebration banquet, Lan Tian summoned Lu Xun in the small courtyard outside the palace to discuss the issue of Jiangdong soldiers transferring from private to public.

"Is Bo Yan sober? I drank a lot at the banquet yesterday, so you know why I'm looking for you today?" Smart people don't need to beat around the bush, Lan Tian is going to get straight to the point.

"I was rude at the banquet yesterday, and I hope that the Lord of the Manor is Haihan." The cautious character made Lu Xun first cup his fists to apologize, and then he asked tentatively: "Everything in Yangzhou has been arranged, but the tens of thousands of troops are still stationed outside Jianye City. Are you looking for me to talk about something in the camp?"

"The governor is really smart," Lan Tian joked with a smile.

Lu Xun shook his head and asked, "The governor is a thing of the past, so don't mention it again. I don't know how do you plan to settle down for the tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city?"

Lan Tian stroked his beard and asked meaningfully: "What's Bo Yan's opinion?"

Lu Xun replied solemnly: "Since the Yellow Turban rebellion, Dong Zhuo's rebellion, and the establishment of the private military system, Jiangdong has been a fixed number for so many years. If the government makes drastic reforms, it is very likely that there will be chaos. The military households who farm at home are closely connected with each other, and the food, grass and military supplies are also allocated by the main family. If these tens of thousands of people are all transferred from private to public, the state government may not be able to support them, and it is very easy to be hindered in combat."

"Private military system is easier to restrict, isn't it? All the chiefs and generals want to preserve their own tribes, and they have selfish intentions and are unwilling to contribute to the country, otherwise there will be no situation like Xiaoyaojin." Lan Tian took the exile as a negative example.

Lu Xun's face was full of bitterness: "That kind of situation is rare after all. If Fu Jun has a better way, I will definitely support it with all my strength."

Lan Tianxin said that this was what he was waiting for, and then he got up and laughed and said, "I have Bo Yan to help me, so why worry about this matter failing? I didn't plan to arrange the [-] parts in a unified way. Now the people in Yangzhou are in urgent need of rest and recuperation. Under the premise of overriding everything, public security has become the primary task, so some of them have to be scattered to various counties and counties, and their food, military supplies, and salaries are responsible for their localities, and their families have to go to the local farming together.”

"Ah? Originally, the trilogy was the main family's private property. If it is forcibly stripped like this, it may cause turmoil in the army. Please think twice." Lu Xun didn't expect Lan Tian to be so simple and rude, so he hurried to persuade him while the other party was speaking.

Unexpectedly, Lan Tian explained unhurriedly: "Since private property must be valuable, Boyan can call together the masters with many songs, and you can offer a reasonable price. The soldiers will be paid when they go to the place? Grain production, right? Part of it is used to repay the main family every year, and if there is a surplus in the state treasury, part of it can be compensated as appropriate.

"The government's plan is seamless, so it should be resolved satisfactorily." Lu Xun nodded straightly, praising Lantian's comprehensive plan, but then expressed concern: "The soldiers of the counties and counties who maintain law and order can solve more than ten thousand people at most. It's their burden, and the rest is mostly, I don't know what arrangements the Fujun will make?"

"It's the same, but listen to me."
