Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

In 239 AD, at the end of the 17th year of Jianxing.

Liu Chan, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, raised an army of [-], and the troops were divided into three groups to attack Wu.

In October, Ma Zhong of the South Road led the soldiers of the South Sergeant to detour around Jiaozhou. Liao Shi and Wu Dang, who were in charge of the incident, beheaded Taoji, the governor of Jiaozhou, and Lu Dai, Mu Ludai of Jiaozhou, and shocked Jingjiao.

In 240 AD, the 18th year of Jianxing.Wang Ping of the North Road led the soldiers of Jingshi to the south of Jiangling. After Zhonglu Xun's strategy of cutting off the water, Jiangling was flooded.Go west again, fight with Lu Xun in Zhijiang, and break it.Lu Xun led his troops away, and Deng Ai pursued them.

On the middle road, Liu Chan led the main force to besiege Yiling for more than half a year. While Lu Xun was attacking Wangping in the north, he captured the Xiaoting camp.

In October, the three armies converged in Jingnan, and Wu was about to perish.Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin to discuss peace with the Han Dynasty, took the title of emperor, drowned Lu Xun, and claimed the land as a vassal.Liu Chan wants to inspect the soldiers at Yunmeng Lake, the troops are powerful in Jingchu, and Sun Quan is Liu Chan's chariot.

On October [-]th, in the name of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liao Li, the servant of the Han Dynasty, signed a letter of surrender in Baqiu with Zhuge Jin, the general under the rule of Sun Quan, the king of Wu.

From now on, the state of Wu should pay tribute to the great Han as a vassal king, proclaim itself King Wu of the Great Han, and not be allowed to go beyond the etiquette and pretend to be the emperor.For example, in terms of travel, it is forbidden to use the emperor's six carriages, and only four carriages can be used; in terms of clothing, it is forbidden to wear the crown of the emperor's twelve chapters, and wear the nine chapters of the princes and kings instead; for sacrifices and banquets, the emperor uses Nine tripods and eight gui, princes and kings can only use seven tripods and six gui.

At the same time, Zhugejin also presented a letter of credence, expressing that Wu Guo will work together with the great Han to fight against Wei Wei and eliminate the evil for the great Han.In order to better help the great Han in the Northern Expedition against Wei, Wu Guo is willing to cede territory to help.The two countries demarcate their borders.

Soochow ceded the counties and counties except Changsha, Wuchang, the three counties of eastern Hunan and the four counties in the southeast of Hengyang to the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty established the seven counties of Wuling, Lingling, Linhe, Changsha, Guiyang, Jiangxia, and Tianmen as Xiangzhou .Considering that Xiangzhou is too large, it is also analyzed that the southern county is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou in the north, but its military is still under the jurisdiction of Xiangzhou.

Soochow separated Jianning, two counties of Xiangxi and four counties of Hengyang in Changsha County and merged into the new Hengyang County. The original Changsha County was renamed Linxiang County. Together with Xiangdong County and Wuchang County, there were four counties in total, and a mini Yingzhou was established. .

Soochow, as Xin Hong's envoy said, those who were scared by the big man or tamed by the big man adjusted their eyes and focused on the Jianghuai area.After all, it is impossible to seize Jingzhou from the west. They just hope that the big man will launch the Central Plains War and attract the Wei army in the Jianghuai area, so that they can take advantage of it.

Therefore, in terms of military affairs, Soochow withdrew Bu Zhi who was sticking to Yiling and arranged it in Wuchang County.Lu Ju stationed troops in Puqi, Zhu Ran transferred troops to Chaisang, and Zhuge Ke stationed in Jiangbei.On the one hand, guard against the Shu Han, and on the other hand, troops can be transferred north to Jianghuai at any time.

Deng Zhi, the governor of Nanjun County of the Han Dynasty, led [-] troops to Yiyang, an important town on the south side of Dongting, to train the navy and guard the banks of Zishui.If the people of Wu are not going well, they can send their troops eastward to cut off the Xiangshui River without any obstacles, capture the three counties of Changsha, Xiangdong, and Hengyang, and shield the Jingnan counties.

General Chen Dao of Zhenxi stationed [-] troops in Xiakou, rebuilt Queyue City, and confronted Wuchang in the south of the Yangtze River across the river.

In Lingnan, the Han Dynasty occupied six counties, including Cangwu, Yulin, Jiaozhi, Rinan, and Jiuzhen, and considered Jiaozhou.Soochow divided the southern capital of Luling County into Lunan County, merged into Zhuya, Gaoliang, and Nanhai County, plus Sun Quan's resettlement of Dan'er County in Hainan Island, a total of five counties, set up a reduced version of Guangzhou, Guangzhou City So Panyu (now Guangzhou).

Um!Don't look at Sun Quan's tossing out of two states, but in fact it is only at the level of the population of the second or third counties, and it is all just trying to save face.Just like the early Shu Han, in order to meet the needs of domestic officials and save face, Yizhou was abruptly divided into about [-] counties.

As for why it named the two states as Yingzhou and Guangzhou, it is not difficult to understand. It cannot have the same name as the states and counties under the rule of the Han Dynasty.The great Han appointed Jingbei as Jingzhou, and the state under his rule cannot be taken as Jingzhou, and the same is true for Jiaozhou.

So far, Jiaoguang has been completely divided and ruled. Even if the Han Dynasty destroys Wu in the future, it will only draw some counties from Jiaozhou and merge them into Guangzhou to fill them.

One of the most important points is that Liu Chan instructed Ma Zhong to move the Jiaozhou government from Guangxin in Cangwu County to the south to Longbian County in Jiaozhi (now Hanoi, Vietnam).

For a long time, the richest area in Jiaozhou is not Nanhai County (Guangdong area), but the Vietnam North area where Jiaozhi County is located.The southward relocation of the old government office represents the southward shift of Jiaozhou's politics and military affairs, and it will also mean that the Han Dynasty will have a deep grasp of the North Vietnam region.

During the Han Dynasty in the past, in order to facilitate the connection between the state capital and the central dynasty, the government was often set up in Guangxin County, Cangwu County.But now Liu Chan, in order to vigorously develop the Red River Delta region and deepen the Sinicization of the North Vietnam region, took the initiative to ask Ma Zhong to move the government office to the south across the Shiwanda Mountains to Jiaozhi County.

In terms of transportation and government decrees, since the Dahan adopted the policy of governing transportation by people from the south, it was logical to suggest that Jiaozhou should unblock the water and land roads from Nanzhong to the west, and then from Nanzhong to the center of Chengdu.

There is no way, the northern part of Vietnam is separated from the central area by the Shiwanda Mountain, and the height of the mountain is more than 500 meters, which is quite steep.The mountains are high and the valleys are deep, jungles are everywhere, and countless mountains and valleys criss-cross, like a maze.

Once in summer, the rain increases and the roads become difficult.Ma Zhong led the disciples of Nanzhong across the [-] mountains to rescue Liao Shi and Wu Dang. It took more than a month on the road alone, and he still led the elite to march in a hurry.

If Jiaozhi in Jiaozhou is connected with Nanzhong, it can pass through Pushui (now Yuanjiang/Honghe), from Dianchi (Kunming) in Jianning County, down the river to Longbian in Jiaozhou County.Coincidentally, the seat of the Han Nanzhong Governor's Mansion is also in Weixian County, Jianning County.

The development of the Pushui waterway was first proposed by Liu Chan. He came from later generations and knew the convenience of water transportation on the Red River.

During the Han Dynasty, the Pushui waterway was opened for the first time, and the thousands of miles of waterway connected Bashu internally and Jiaozhi externally.Since the Western Han Dynasty, Jinsangguan (now Hekou County) has been established to maintain the peace of the two places.Ma Yuan put down the rebellion in the south by virtue of this river channel.

In modern times, France colonized Vietnam. In order to open up the market in China's interior, it traveled along the Red River and opened up the waterway between Vietnam and Yunnan.At that time, "three hundred big ships and one thousand small boats traveled like ants", and there were more than [-] caravans carrying goods every day.

The reason why the Pushui waterway did not prosper and become famous in history is due to the situation of Nanzhong and Jiaozhi.

When Nanzhong was stable, Jiaozhou rebelled; when Jiaozhou was stable, Nanzhong was separated.After Nanzhong was reformed and the land was returned to Liu, Jiaozhou also became a land of alienation.

The great Han unified again, how could Liu Chan miss the opportunity to consolidate Nanzhong and Jiaozhou, and also keep the Vietnam North area for future generations, and try his best.After all, no matter how good the ancestors can fight, they can't stand the prodigal sons of the descendants.As long as the Song Dynasty is defeated, it will not cause Vietnam to break away from the Central Plains.

However, even if Vietnam was separated, it would be enough if future generations could consult ancient books or find out the convenience of diplomatic relations between South China and China based on the traces left by the great Han Dynasty and put down the rebellion.

I am afraid that if it is passed on to Zuo Song, not only Nanzhong will be gone, but Dali will be there; Yuebei will also be gone, and there will be a separatist regime.It can only be said that the heart is as big as the land.

But how about the future, at least the big man can control Nanzhong and Yuebei.

The emperor parades, and the king of Wu is the emperor.The news that Wu was a subject and paid tribute to the Han Dynasty spread throughout the world.

Longzhong, Zhuge Lu.

Du Yu took the battle report from Xiangzhou, walked quickly into the house, couldn't hold back the smile on his face, and said, "Master, Your Majesty has won a great victory, and Sun Quan has become a minister. I am a big man who captured two prefectures and fourteen counties and expanded the land thousands of miles. Millions of people."

Zhuge Liang, who was being fed the potion, couldn't help being beaten, so he asked someone to help him up on the pillow, and said weakly: "Is this really the case?"

Du Yu handed over the battle report and said with a smile: "I don't dare to be false. Your Majesty is still parading in Yunmengze, and Sun Quan is the driver. His majesty is so powerful that he is famous in Wu and Chu. If the Central Plains can be set in the north, the people of Wu will abandon their armor and surrender. We The great Han soldiers can unify the world without bloodshed."

Zhuge Liang looked at the contents of the battle report, coughed while laughing, took a long time to relax, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I can't witness such a scene with my own eyes, what a pity! What a pity!"

After a pause, Zhuge Liang showed a look of relief, and said: "Now that I can learn that Jingchu has been restored and the two states have been pacified, Liang is also satisfied! Presumably in another ten years, the world may be unified. After the world is unified, with your majesty's ability, It should be able to show the prosperity of the great man."

As he said that, Zhuge Liang patted Du Yu's hand and said, "From now on, I will serve as a teacher for the great Han, and advise Your Majesty to help the country."

"No!" Du Yu held Zhuge Liang's hand and said comfortingly, "Master, I hope you can rest and recover, and you will recover."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and smiled wryly, knowing his own physical condition.
