Ji Han Da Sima
Chapter 620 Jiangling County Duke
Chapter 620 Jiangling County Duke
Wuhan, Huanghutai.
In the pavilion, Liu Chan walked with his hands behind his back, followed by his attendants.
Looking at the scenery of the river bank dyed by the setting sun, Liu Chan sighed: "Climbing the Huanghu Terrace and looking at the river scenery at sunset, with the river flowing eastward and thousands of boats and sails, is a unique experience in life."
As he spoke, Liu Chan stroked the damp wooden railing and said helplessly: "Although Wuhan is located on the thoroughfare of the Han Dynasty, where ordinary merchants gather, but it is easy to be invaded by mountains and rivers when it rains and winds are strong, which is a pity!"
During the Three Kingdoms period when the Three Gorges Dam was not built, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River had always been prone to flooding. Therefore, in order to prevent being submerged by the river water, few cities were built directly on the banks of the Yangtze River. Most were built on the tributaries of large rivers and lakes.
After the Southern Han Dynasty decided to build its capital in Wuhan, the location of Wuhan New City was actually chosen to avoid areas prone to flooding by the Yangtze River. Even so, if there is a flood in the Yangtze River, Wuhan will definitely be affected. It is just a question of the size of the impact.
When Huo Jun was flooded in Shouchun, Wuhan was affected by the surging Yangtze River. Fortunately, the river water did not surge too much and only affected low-lying areas. More than a dozen people were missing and thousands of people's property was damaged.
"Your Majesty, in the past, the late emperor followed the emperor's policy of guarding the country against Wu and Chu. Now that the country is stable, the Spring Festival will not come soon. Wuhan is prone to floods all year round. Your Majesty may consider moving east to Moling as the capital." Gu Hui He urged with cupped hands.
Gu Hui, courtesy name Zitong. Gu Yongzhi, the governor of Jingzhou, was a younger brother. He was rarely famous for his talents and was good at eloquence. He was elected as a filial and honest man, and passed the examination as a doctor, running beside Liu Chan.
"Moving east to Moling?"
"Your Majesty, good news from Jianghuai!"
The reason why Liu Chan considered moving the capital to Moling was not only considering the perennial floods in Wuhan, but also considering the northern expedition to Henan and appeasing the scholars in Jiangdong.
The former solution is to restore production in the Jianghuai River, cultivate acres of farmland, and accumulate grain and grass. However, if we want to rely entirely on Jianghuai to solve the problem, it will be difficult to do so given the current number of household registrations in Jianghuai.
Normally, due to the existence of Hangou and Chaofei, Jiangdong can deliver materials and manpower to the Huaihe River Basin, and in summer it can go upstream of the river and radiate two to three hundred miles north. Once it exceeds the scope, the supplies Jiangdong can provide to the front line will be less, until the bottleneck period.
"promise!"
Liu Chan muttered for a while and then fell into deep thought.
Liu Chan put his hand on the handrail and walked slowly, thinking about what Gu Ti said about moving the capital.
"But Father Zhong broke Shouchun?"
For example, in history, the Northern Song Dynasty destroyed Xixia. Affected by the Hengshan Mountains, its supply range was 700 miles. If you want to supply more supplies to the front line, you can add more people to transport food by hand, or build cities to collect food along the way, and try to break the 700-mile supply limit as much as possible.
After being emperor for a while, Liu Chan gradually learned not to be the first to express his stance. If you are too anxious to express your opinion, you may not be able to listen to reasonable opinions. Just like what Zhuge Liang taught him in the past, some things are easily affected by emotions. It is best to listen to opinions with an empty head and then think about and make decisions.
Hearing this, Liu Chan felt happy and hurried forward to greet him.
After saying that, Liu Chan was afraid that people would cause misunderstanding, so he smiled and said: "I have been running around with the late emperor since I was young. Wuhan is my hometown. Even if it is harmed by water, how can I leave it? And the land is like people, and no one is perfect. There is no perfect place in the world, there will always be flaws.”
With the return of Huainan, if you want to expand northward to Henan next, relying solely on the current Xu and Yang patterns may not be enough in the later stages. After all, the power radiated from each area has a limited range.
As for appeasing or winning over the Jiangdong scholars, Liu Chan thought it was easy. After all, Liu Chan was not a man without great ambitions. Due to the influence of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan had always longed to restore the Central Plains and rebuild the Han Dynasty.
Seeing that Liu Chan was silent, Gu Ti continued: "Moling is surrounded by Fuzhoushan to the north, Zhongshan to the east, and Stone to the west. Zhongshan is a dragon, and the stone is a tiger. In ancient times, the emperor's energy traveled to the southeast and was formed in Moling, so Moling must be For the house of the emperor!”
Ever since Liu Bei was in power over Wu and Chu, there have been many proposals to move the capital to Moling (today's Nanjing), and they were even mentioned every one or two years. However, in order to integrate Jingchu and facilitate the Northern Expedition, Liu Bei repeatedly rejected the proposals of Jiangdong scholars.
After walking for a while, Liu Chan patted the railing and said: "Moving the capital to Moling is not a trivial matter and cannot be decided by me alone. In a few days, when the Grand Sima and the Prime Minister return to the country, we will discuss the matter of moving the capital."
The latter solution was the relocation of the capital that Liu Chan considered. Once the capital is moved to Moling, administrative efficiency can be enhanced and the supply range can be extended northward to help the army in its northern expedition.
If the world can be brought to peace, Wuhan and Moling will have to step aside, and the city that can qualify as the capital will be either Luoyang or Chang'an.
To solve the problem of supply delivery in Huaibei, for example, you can establish a stronghold in Huainan, whose supply range will be farther than Jiangzuo; or you can enhance administrative efficiency and recruit boats to supply northward as much as possible.
Liu Chan wandered around for a while, but saw someone behind him announcing the good news. He turned around and looked around, only to see Zhuge Qiao holding the scarf tightly in his hand and running quickly through the corridor.
"Exactly!"
Zhuge Qiao handed over the scarf in his hand and said with a smile: "Not long after Cao Pi died of illness, the Grand Sima accepted Jiang Ji's advice and sent the captured Wei envoys into the city. When the Wei envoys entered the city, they appointed Xu Huang as the general of chariots and cavalry, and then the soldiers in the city When the officials learned that Cao Pi had died of illness, their hearts were shocked."
"Wei Shouchun ordered Wei Yin to open the north gate to welcome our army under Lu Fang's advice. In Shouchun in the morning, by noon, the rebels in the city were all put down. Then the Grand Sima ordered Generals Pang and Lu to use their own troops, and Pang Du was under the command Yiyang and Anfeng counties, Lu Chaiqi took over Cai, Ping'a and Yicheng counties. "
"Cai!"
Liu Chan held the scarf and said with a smile on his face: "Shouchun is the gateway to Henan. Now we have Shouchun, and the army will return to the Central Plains. It's just around the corner!"
"Zhongfu's military strategy is even better than that of Han Bai. His use of troops is like ghosts and gods, unfathomable!" Liu Chan paced, his tone full of praise for Huo Jun. If you ask Liu Chan how he feels, the answer is "pleasant"!
His father Liu Bei left him a country where he could recuperate and recuperate, have abundant national strength, a vast territory, numerous household registrations, and capable soldiers.
The only bad thing is that individual ministers have too much power and too high a reputation. Fortunately, this particular minister made him feel safe and even trustworthy.
Zhuge Liang, the prime minister, was outstanding in politics, had a high reputation, and employed people with talents, which was comparable to Xiao He. Regarding the use of troops, I don’t know what the upper limit is yet, but judging from the current use of troops, they are by no means inferior to the famous generals in the country.
Needless to say, Zhongfu Huo Jun can fight if he is released. Today's two victories in Jianghuai, one is better than the other, enough to make him look good.
Father-in-law Zhang Fei is older. Although he is not very reliable, he has status and is the oldest. Even Huo Jun had to give Zhang Fei some face when he met him because of his qualifications.
His father can be an enemy of the country, Liu Chan has nothing to worry about except happiness!
As for whether he was worried about Huo Jun's superiority, Liu Chan was slightly worried, but not too worried!
Not to mention his son Huo Yi and he had a brotherly relationship growing up. Just talking about his age, Zhong's father Huo Jun is already fifty, while he is only in his early twenties. If he used his age to survive, he might be able to survive Zhong's father. Instead, he was worried that as his father got older, there would be no one to help him in the Northern Expedition.
As for the fact that military merit is too high to be rewarded, Liu Chan is not too worried. As you get older, in addition to not giving too much real power, try your best to give honors and titles.
The swords and shoes were given, as well as the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister gave it to him, as well as Jiuxi.
Nine tins cannot be given at once, conquering a state and adding one tin. I am not afraid that Jiuxi will give too much, but I am afraid that there are not enough prefectures and counties.
As for the title, try to control the scale. If it does not affect the operation of the country, or in other words, it does not affect the governance of the country, give as much as you can.
Jiang Ziya led King Wu to destroy Shang and was granted the title of Marquis of Qi. If Zhongfu could defeat Wei, his achievements would be comparable to Jiang Ziya's. If he could not fully repay him, no one in future generations would be willing to assist the Han Dynasty.
If the king cannot be granted a title, he will be granted the title of duke. Seal the father and seal the son.
Later, when Father Zhong was gone, his honor also disappeared with the wind!
The food towns that were enfeoffed were distributed among the disciples. Even the political assets left behind can be tied to the Han Dynasty through corresponding operations.
Liu Chan can deeply understand his own shortcomings. He suffers because of his youth, but also wins because of his youth!
No matter whether the subsequent process can be as he imagined, he will win first. Could it be possible that a living person could suffocate himself to death?
Looking at the happy Liu Chan, Zhuge Qiao reminded: "Your Majesty, our soldiers have fought hard for a year. We first defeated Zhongli and then defeated Shouchun. Our soldiers are tired and Grand Sima intends to call it quits. Now that the army is about to start the battle, it is appropriate to give him a reward." Meritorious generals."
"Where is the list of today's meritorious soldiers?" Liu Chan asked.
Zhuge Qiao cupped his hands and said: "One copy of the list of meritorious soldiers is at the Shangshu Desk, and the other is sent to the Prime Minister for review. In terms of distance, it will be sent to Xiangyang as soon as possible."
Liu Chan pondered for a while and said: "The Prime Minister will approve the canonization of generals for their meritorious service. Today, it is Lao Da Sima Zhongli and Shouchun who have made two contributions. They need to issue an edict to award them first."
With that said, Liu Chan took out the edict that he had prepared long ago from his sleeve, handed it to Zhuge Qiao, and said: "Let Secretary Wang polish it a little, and then I will send Ma Liang, the servant of the minister, to Shouchun on my behalf, and set up an altar to confer the title of Grand Sima!"
"Set up an altar for canonization?"
Zhuge Qiao was very curious and asked: "Your Majesty, does the Prime Minister know?"
Liu Chan smiled and said: "This edict is the intention of the Prime Minister and me, and the Sili Colonel has no objection!"
"Then I dare to ask Your Majesty, which title needs to be enthroned?" Gu Hui asked boldly.
Liu Chan put his hands behind his back and walked away, and said slowly: "With the great Sima's achievements, how can the marquis be able to praise him? Today I worship the great Sima as the Duke of Jiangling County, build the ancestral temple, pay tribute forever, and rest with the country!" "
"Jiangling County Duke!"
Everyone gasped as the second county official appeared.
Not only did the county prince retire with the country, but actually the three princes of the county, township, and pavilion also retired with the country. The special thing is that it has the right to build an ancestral temple.
In the Han Dynasty, private individuals could not build ancestral temples, let alone worship others at will, unless the ancestral temples were repaired under official orders.
In the original history, after Zhuge Liang died of illness, the people in Shu missed Zhuge Liang too much and often worshiped Zhuge Liang obscenely in public places. The reason why Zhuge Liang is worshiped is because Zhuge Liang's title is only Marquis of Wuxiang, not a prince or other title.
Upon learning that the people of Shu were worshipping Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan issued an imperial decree to build a ancestral temple for Zhuge Liang so that the people could worship him properly. The reason why Zhuge Liang was worshipped so often in Shu was related to Liu Chan's special favor.
After the Han Dynasty, the right to build ancestral temples was gradually liberalized, but some temples were not allowed to be owned by princes. Therefore, after having the right to build an ancestral temple, Huo Jun could not only worship his ancestors, but also enjoy incense after death.
However, what can be expected is that Huo Jun was the first to be granted the title of county magistrate. After breaking the convention, a few generals would be granted the title of county magistrate one after another.
