Destiny Only Han

Chapter 481 Poet Immortal Liu Ying......

In the spring and March of the tenth year of the Han Dynasty, Yuzhang County, east of Nanchang City, Poyang Lake.

In fact, Poyang Lake at this time was named Peng Lize, and its area was not as large as Poyang Lake in later generations. This is because Yunmeng Lake, which can fully regulate and store floods, is still there. Peng Lize quickly crossed Yingzikou and expanded towards the Xiaoyang Plain in the southeast.

But with the idea that some traces should be left behind, Liu Ying directly swiped a pen and circled a series of large and small lakes and swamps in the south of Peng Lize, and named them Poyang Lake.

Today's Yuzhang County is actually a new county cut by Liu Bang from the original Lujiang County, and the boundary between the original Lujiang County and the original Lujiang County is the river flowing eastward.

Yuzhang County nominally governs 18 counties, and the county seat is in Nanchang County, which is under construction.

Well, the reason is in name, because in addition to the original Panyang County (Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province), Luling County (Jian City), and Nanchang County as the county seat, as well as Jiujiang County to the north of Nanchang County, and Dexing County (Jingdezhen), and the remaining counties are still empty, with only one county name written on the map.

The division of Lujiang County was precisely because Liu Bang was inspired by Liu Ying's establishment of Nanchang City, in order to better "control the barbarian Jing and attract Ouyue" and resist the "Southern Vietnam Threat Theory" advocated by Changsha King Wu Rui...

At the same time, it was also a test for Huainan Wang Yingbu and Changsha Wang Wu Rui.

For Yingbo, there are two confidantes in the north, Jingguo and Chuguo, who are already Alexander, and now there is another Yuzhang County controlled by the imperial court in the back, which happens to be three big mountains...

As for Changsha King Wu Rui...

Well, most of the land in Yuzhang County is his fiefdom, which is just the one drawn on the map. With the national power and army strength of Changsha Kingdom, at best, it can only keep Panyang County from being captured by the Yue people, and it will not be captured by the Yue people. Not enough to conquer the surrounding large and small Yue tribes and tribal alliances.

The most important thing is that in order to persuade Liu Bang to send troops to help him win the Nanyue King Zhao Tuo, Wu Rui tried his best to promote the strength of the Nanyue Kingdom.

Therefore, the central government of the Han Empire established Yuzhang County with a military region system here, and Wu Rui belonged to it.

Therefore, in order to express his concern about the South Vietnam Kingdom's northern expedition to the Central Plains at any time, Liu Bang sent a general to personally sit in the newly established Yuzhang County.

Wang Zhiyu, Yushi doctor, Yuzhang county governor, Yingyin Hou Guanying.

Of course, the censor Guan Ying is just a name, the real censor is still Zhou Ke, just like the Han Empire has a left prime minister and a right prime minister, but the real prime minister is Xiao He.

At this moment, Guan Ying led more than a hundred riders galloping over the painted road in the distance, and by the side of the horse lake, he ordered the horses to be led aside to drink and feed them. Looking at the scenery of lakes and mountains in the distance, I chant softly:

"The wind returns to the cloud, the rain turns to clear, and the lakeside returns to the warmth and light..."

Beside him, a man with a mustache and a fierce face gave a thumbs up and said flatteringly: "Good poems, good poems, the imperial censor has both civil and military skills, both civil and military skills!"

His name was Zhou Zao, and he was stabbed in the back by Yong Chi, Liu Bang lost Fengyi and defected to King Jingju of Chu, and was incorporated as a Qin soldier after the allied forces captured Dang County.

Later, Zhou Zao served as a reserve cadre named "Lian Ao" beside Liu Bang. He destroyed Qin all the way, entered Hanzhong, returned to Sanqin, and went east to attack Xiang Yu. Afterwards, he entered the camp of the Chu Army and was accepted by the Marquis of Juelong. At this moment, he is the magistrate of Yuzhang County and the magistrate of Nanchang County.

Well, he was pointed out by Liu Ying's generals. In the original history, he once led troops to attack the South Vietnamese country, but it was very hot and the army was infected with epidemics, so he finally returned without success.

Therefore, Liu Ying asked Zhou Zao to come to Yuzhang County to get used to it in advance, so that he could cope with the fateful confrontation in the future...

Just hearing Zhou Zao's flattery, Guan Ying shook his head lightly, waved his hands and said with a smile:

"Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it, this is a poem recited by His Royal Highness, I just said it casually..."

"Well, don't believe me, I have a collection of poems published by Shangxiantang, which contains more than a hundred poems and fus written by His Royal Highness, which can be described as classics and amazing! Under the Nine Springs, I will definitely feel inferior to myself..."

"His Royal Highness, Yun Wen Yun Wu, is really a blessing to my Han family!" Zhou Zao turned the conversation with a straight face, clasped his fists with both hands and shook them in the direction of Chang'an City, and then asked, "I don't know where the collection of poems is. ? Can you borrow a certain view?"

Guan Ying didn't despise him in the slightest because of his sycophantic behavior. After all, he and Zhou Zao belonged to Liu Bang's confidantes and were in the prime of life, so it was normal to verbally praise his future boss.

It's just that when Guan Ying was about to say something, there was a sudden movement in the distance, which made him and Zhou Zao take two steps forward at the same time, stepping on the mound by the lake and looking into the distance.

Near the shore on the left side of the lake, a large ship with a bed crossbow fixed on its bow was moving forward at high speed. About seven or eight feet away from the bow, water splashed and waves churned, as if there was a dragon rolling violently under the water.

Guan Ying and Zhou Zao looked at each other and smiled, the worry and anxiety in their hearts disappeared.

The boats sailing at high speed on the water at this moment are exactly the catching boats specially used to hunt crocodiles, and the people driving the boats on the lake are all Guanzhong people who have immigrated to Nanchang City.

According to the price offered by Liu Ying, the purchase price of a predator with a length of more than two feet is equivalent to the annual income of an immigrant family!

Therefore, driven by profit, this group of landlubbers learned how to sail a boat in just three months, rented or bought a boat to catch dragons, and searched for traces of predators all over the world...

Well, but they didn't abandon the farmland. After all, hunting crocodiles is just to earn extra money, and farming the land to harvest food is the most stable source of income.

Inspired by Liu Ying in order to obtain crocodiles and sell the catching boats they built, the pioneers of Nanchang City formed cooperatives one after another based on Lifang as a unit, concentrating all the farmland owned by them and unifying them. Management, some people go out to hunt crocodiles by turns every day, while the other people stay to do farming.

Well, it’s not actually farming, but supervising and guiding the purchased slaves to work in the fields...

Today Yuzhang County has 24 garrison soldiers and 20 civilian households who have moved out, with a population of more than 15, but there are nearly [-] farming slaves and more than [-] other vassals.

Most of these are the results of the 'Vietnamese Cossacks' led by Mei Yan.

Although Mei Yan had only four or five thousand soldiers, and the soldiers were no taller than the local Yue people, their average weight was twenty or thirty catties higher than the opponents.

In addition, the Yue people around Yuzhang County are not monolithic, and various tribes often fight for hunting grounds, and there are also many prisoners of war accumulated.

Naturally, there is not much shortage of manpower for small-scale development in the early stage.

Standing on the mound, Guan Ying quietly watched the whole process of hunting the crocodile. The boat tightened the rope and dragged the crocodile, which had no strength to struggle, to the shore. Hold the big mouth and limbs of the crocodile.

According to the information that Liu Ying read from the Internet, the crocodile has a strong bite force, but the power to open the mouth is very small. In this way, if you encounter a large crocodile such as a Nile crocodile or a crocodile in the wild, you only need to stretch out your fingers to pinch it. Just shut their mouths... and enjoy a death roll.

Guan Ying and the leader of the Jiao-catching boat smiled at each other, then looked away and looked into the distance.

When he was driven to the shelves before, he was still very apprehensive, worried that he would not be qualified for the position of sheriff, and he would be entrusted with heavy responsibility.

But after he talked with Liu Ying a few times, most of his doubts were eliminated, and after seeing the actual measures implemented, he was sure that he could replace the herdsmen.

To develop in the wet and barren land, the first thing is to prevent epidemics.

Well, when the population is small and most of them do not leave settlements, the plague will not spread, but without medical insurance, they will die...

But the medical students who accompanied the pioneers solved the problem of difficulty in seeing a doctor.

Although the number of doctors in Yuzhang County is not comparable to Chang'an City or Xincheng, the population here is small, and the per capita medical occupancy is actually higher than the latter.

At that time, many infectious diseases had not been introduced into China, such as cholera, which originated in the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges River. Therefore, drinking boiled water, washing hands frequently, and preventing feces from polluting water sources can kill more than [-]% of infectious diseases at the source .

The second problem in developing Yuzhang County is the tigers, black bears in the mountains and forests, poisonous snakes in the water, crocodiles and other fierce beasts that can easily take human lives.

The wild beasts in the forest are easy to deal with. With the big saw prepared in the early stage, you can easily cut down an entire forest, and then set fire to burn the rotted leaves accumulated on the ground, increasing the fertility of the soil and driving the wild beasts away. Go back to the deep mountains and old forests to create a buffer zone between humans and animals.

The felled wood is transported to the hydraulic sawmill built on the edge of the stream, so that the wood for building the house will be available.

In the early days, due to the long distance of the road, the houses built were mainly made of bamboo and wood. The main frame was made of tall columns that went straight to the roof and hard logs, and the walls and roof were made of local bamboo and thatch.

The wooden house is divided into two floors as a whole, and the floor is more than three feet above the ground. It is not only used to store firewood and tools, but also can isolate water vapor to prevent poisonous snakes and crocodiles from slipping in during sleep.

Well, poisonous snakes are easy to deal with. After all, snakes are timid and sensitive, and rarely appear in residential areas. In addition, there are a large number of hybrid geese and geese raised in Lifang. Smaller snakes are high-quality protein feed...

Guan Ying looked at the people who tied up the crocodiles for good luck and went back to Lifang to slaughter and divide them. The biggest problem that plagued the pioneers in production and life was also solved.

"Your Highness, I've even thought of this... Maybe it's not empty talk."
