Chapter 2596: Ten Counties in Dianzhou, Alliance of Qinnan

 Between Da Qin and Nanman, they mostly used each other. Therefore, although the relationship between the two countries was good on the surface, it was not so good as to be intimate.

But the name Kunming was indeed given by Ying Hao.

　　When Zhu Rong was on his last mission to Da Qin, when he and Ying Hao were discussing the future development of Nanman, Zeng said that his brother Chi You was worried about the location and construction of the new capital.

After Ying Hao took a look at the Nanman territory, he gave Zhu Rong some of his opinions.

The Nanzhong area occupied by the Nanman is actually a very large and general area, which roughly refers to later Yunnan, Guizhou, parts of southwestern Sichuan, and parts of northern Myanmar.

In order to compete for the southern area of ​​​​Yizhou, the Nanman people launched five wars against Shu, and each battle was extremely fierce. The territorial changes and divisions between counties and counties between the two countries were quite frequent.

Under the leadership of Chi You, when the Southern Barbarian army was at its strongest, it occupied most of Yinan and even almost invaded Yizhong, which was less than a hundred miles away from Chengdu. This was also the time when Chi You had the greatest chance of taking over Chengdu. .

However, it is precisely because of this that Yizhou, which was in disarray, had to unite and deal with the outside world.

 Finally, the three princes Liu Yu, Liu Ji, and Li Shimin joined forces to defeat Chi You's Southern Barbarian army.

 Five battles against Shu, each time the Southern Barbarians took the initiative to attack, while the Shu Kingdom passively defended. Although the Southern Barbarians lost all the battles, the main force was not lost.

 So, even if Liu Yu unified Yizhou, he would not dare to provoke the Nanman easily. After all, Chi You was really not easy to mess with, and Nanzhong was a place where birds did not shit.

Even if the Shu Kingdom occupies Nanzhong, it will be difficult to govern and win over the people. On the contrary, it will contain a lot of Shu's troops. The benefits gained may not be as much as the losses.

Therefore, in the eyes of the senior officials of the Shu Kingdom, Nanzhong is a quagmire, and they naturally dare not get involved easily.

 Originally, there were only five counties in Yinan: Yizhou, Yongchang, Zanggao, Yuexi and Zhuti.

In the tug-of-war that lasted for more than ten years, the Shu Kingdom and the Nanman Kingdom fought for almost every inch of territory, which also resulted in the following pattern in the area south of Yizhou.

 Yizhou County was divided into three counties: Yizhou, Jianning, and Yunnan;

Yongchang County was divided into three counties: Yongchang, Dali and Lijiang;

Zangqi County was divided into three counties: Zangqi County, Qianbei Guizhou County and Qiannan County;

Yuexun County was divided into two counties: Yuexun County and Liangshan County;

Including the Zhuti County that was changed from the Jianwei vassal state, there are now eleven counties in Yinan.

The Nanman failed to conquer Shu five times, and the area they occupied was also shrinking. Now only three counties are left: Yunnan, Dali, Lijiang, Qiannan, and Jianning, a total of four and a half counties, and the other six and a half counties are all Belongs to the Kingdom of Shu.

After figuring out the situation in Nanzhong, Ying Hao suggested to Zhu Rong that since there were only three counties left in Jianning County, it would be better to merge it with Yunnan County, and move the new administrative office to Guchang County, which was razed to ruins, and establish it for them. Renamed: Kunming.

Zhu Rong carefully considered Ying Hao's words and felt that the ruins of Changgu County were a treasure trove.

80% of the area in Nanzhong is composed of mountains and plateaus, and there are very few plains for planting, so Nanzhong's grain production has been unable to increase.

Kechanggu County not only has a rare plain terrain, but also is close to Dianchi Lake, which is convenient for irrigation and naturally suitable for the development of agriculture. There are also salt mines, iron mines, and copper mines in the surrounding area, which are rich in mineral resources.

To put it bluntly, as long as Changgu can be developed, the output of this land alone can support one-third of the Nanman people.

 But why haven’t the Nanman discovered such a treasure land?

Liu Yu also saw the potential of Changgu County, so after finding that it could not be defended, in order not to benefit the enemy, he burned Changgu County to scorched earth.

After Zhu Rong returned to China with Ye Qingmei's fleet, he immediately told his brother Chi You about Ying Hao's suggestion, and Chi You also felt like he had found a treasure.

Soon, Chi You ordered that the three counties of Jianning and five counties of Yunnan, a total of eight counties, be merged into Dian County, which was designated as Changgu County and renamed Kunming.

Chiyou later established seven new counties: Qujing, Yuxi, Zhaotong, Baoshan, Pu'er, Lincang, and Burma.

Additional to the four counties of Dian County, Dali, Lijiang, and Qiannan, the Nanman Empire has a total of eleven counties and sixty-eight counties;

Chi You established ten counties, a total of 64 counties, except northern Burma, as Dianzhou, and changed the name of Nanman to Nanguo, with the capital as Kunming.

In the next two years, the Southern Kingdom not only vigorously moved people to Kunming, but also concentrated its efforts to develop Kunming. Only then did the scale of Kunming City reach the level of the Central Plains County Administration.

[Ding dong, Chi You established "Dianzhou" and vigorously governed Nanzhong, making a rare contribution to the region in a thousand years. Reward: In addition to force, the four-dimensional attributes are permanently +1, the intelligence attribute is +2, and the political attribute is again +3, the area's population growth rate doubles within one year;

Chi You: Commander 101 (+2), Force 110 (+2), Intelligence 93 (+6), Politics 89 (+11), Charisma 98 (+8);

Chi You’s current five dimensions: Commander 102 (+3), Force 110 (+2), Intelligence 96 (+9), Politics 93 (+15), Charisma 99 (+9);]

Chi You's force value has reached 110 points. He can no longer rely on system rewards to improve his attributes. Only by breaking his own limits can he continue to seek breakthroughs in martial arts.

Zhang Yi and Chi You were chatting happily, completely unaware of the Seven Swords behind them. All seven of them tensed up, not even daring to take a breath, and looked at Chi You with solemn eyes.

 It was not until Chi You left that the seven people breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Yiyue noticed something strange about the seven people and asked in confusion: "Why were you so reserved just now?"

Yuwen Tuo explained with a serious look: "Master Zhang, you are a scholar, so you can't feel it, but in the perception of warriors like us, this King of the South is simply a great dragon, and his power is even more unfathomable. "

“Is it such an exaggeration? I think this King Nan is quite kind.”

Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Ximen Chuixue said solemnly: "Sir, even if the seven of us combined, we are still far behind King Nan."

"What?"

Zhang Yi was shocked when he heard this: "You and the other seven people join forces, even the Grand Master can only temporarily avoid the edge, but he is far inferior to the Nan King? How is this possible? Could it be that he is also a Grand Master? ?”

Xie Xiaofeng shook his head and said: "Probably not yet. After breaking through the Grand Master, the momentum of the whole body will be able to be controlled freely. Those who are lower than the Grand Master cannot sense it at all. Even if the Grand Master is standing in front of you, you will still be able to sense it. Just like ordinary people, King Nan is still in our perception, which shows that he has not yet broken through to the Grand Master."

"Even Xiang Yu and General Li Cunxiao, who had not yet broken through to the Grand Master, gave me the impression that Nan Wang was not as strong as this Nan Wang. Even if he is not a Grand Master yet, he should be a half-step Grand Master, and he is not far away from breaking through." Yan Shisan said in a deep voice.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

Zhang Yi suddenly took a breath of cold air, simply not believing what she heard.

Even if Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao have not yet broken through the Grand Master, they are still recognized as the best in the world. However, Chi You, who has not yet broken through the Grand Master, is even more powerful than the two of them?

This is too outrageous.

Zhang Yi knew Chi You's record. Even Xing Tian, ​​the most powerful general in Shu, was no match for him. Xing Tian and Hou Yi had to join forces to defeat him.

Even so, Zhang Yi naturally did not want to believe this, and asked with a look of disbelief: "Do you mean that Chi You is stronger than General Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao?"

"That's not true. Strong momentum does not mean strong strength. No one knows who is stronger or weaker without fighting directly. But just because the momentum is already so strong, the strength will definitely not be any weaker." Ye Gucheng said solemnly. road.

“Chi You shouldn’t be much weaker than General Li Cunxiao before he broke through to the Grand Master. At least he is at the same level as Sun Lingming and Yang Jian.” Bu Jingyun said.

Zhang Yi was still a little hard to accept after hearing this.

 In the entire Central Plains, with a population of tens of millions, the competition among warriors was extremely fierce, but only Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao, the two best in the world, were born.

And Nanzhong only has a population of two to three million. Although survival is difficult, the competition among warriors is not fierce. How could it breed a genius like Chi You who is on the same level as Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao?

 In this regard, Zhang Yi can only say that God bless Nanzhong.

Zhang Yi originally thought that since the Southern Kingdom was so backward, there should be an extreme shortage of talents. Chi You was just an example and did not represent the entire country. However, after getting some information about the Southern Kingdom, he realized that he was so wrong.

There is indeed an extreme shortage of talents in the South, but there are no shortage of high-end talents.

First of all, the prime minister of the Southern Kingdom is actually a famous evil master and the leader of the Moon Worship Sect, Shi Renjie.

This is a master of the Grand Master level. All the countries in the Central Plains are rushing to recruit him, but he is willing to stay in the small country of the South as the prime minister.

Zhang Yi was also very curious about this. After asking around, he learned that Shi Jieren, the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult, was the adopted son of Shi Gonghu, the head of the Shi family in the Southern Kingdom, and Shi Gonghu was an elder of the Southern Barbarians.

 After the Shijie people established the Moon Worship Sect, they dominated the Yinan area for a while.

Chi You, who had not yet broken through to the level of Grand Master, learned that there were such strong men in the Southern Barbarians but did not fight for them, so he single-handedly broke into the Yue Worship Sect and beat Shi Jie so convincingly that he surrendered to the Southern Kingdom.

I have to say that although Shi Jieren was a man of evil ways, he was indeed talented. He helped Chi You solve many problems and gradually rose to the position of prime minister with his own ability.

In addition to Shi Jieren, Zhang Yi found that there were many talents in the Southern Barbarians: for example: Duan Siping, the governor of Dali County, Shi Tianlin, the governor of Pu'er County, Shi Qing, the governor of Myanmar County, and Shi Yannian, the governor of Lincang County.

These four counties were originally uncivilized and poor places. However, under the governance of these four governors, all four counties ushered in great governance and began to gradually become wealthy. They no longer needed the resources of the Southern Kingdom to support them, but were able to provide them with support in return. Southern country.

Among these four prefects, Duan Siping was the founding emperor of the Dali Kingdom, and the Dali Kingdom existed for 317 years, only two years less than the Song Dynasty.

Shi Tianlin was the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty. He lived to the age of 92 and assisted four Yuan emperors. He was loyal and had outstanding political achievements.

Shi Qing was the prime minister during the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty. He was the prime minister of Qi at the beginning, and the country of Qi was governed without saying a word. After his death, he was posthumously named Marquis of Tian.

Shi Yannian was a famous official in the Song Dynasty. His poems by Shi Yannian, his essays by Ouyang Xiu, and his songs by Du Mo were known as the "Three Heroes".

 Duan Siping and Shi Tianlin are both hidden figures in the bronze Bai Zhao, while Shi Yannian is the hidden figure in the poet Bai Zhao.

Duan Siping was implanted as the head of the Duan family in Dali, and Shi Tianlin and Shi Yannian were implanted as the sons of Shi Gonghu, who were the adopted brothers of Nanxiang Shi Renjie.

As for Shi Qing, he was implanted as a Han Chinese in Yizhou. Because of his poor background, he was sent to Yinan as a county magistrate. He was forced to surrender when Chi You attacked Shu, and was later reused by Chi You.

There were many Han officials who surrendered like Shi Qing, such as Buwei County Magistrate Lu Kai, Dianchi County Magistrate Wang and his wife, etc., and they were all reused by Chi You.

In addition to the above four prefects, as well as long-famous generals such as Gonggong and Meng Huo, Zhang Yi discovered that there are many talents in the Southern Kingdom, such as: Shi Gonghu, Tang Yu, Duan Siying, Duan Zhengchun, Duan Zhengming, Duan Zhixing, Wu Huo , Suo Chao, Sun Li, Chi Li, Chi Li and so on.

With so many talented people assisting him, it’s no wonder that Chi You was able to completely transform Nanzhong into its current state in such a short period of time.

 The next day, Zhang Yi announced his intention to come, but what Chi You said next caught him off guard.

"I already know the purpose of your envoy's visit, so I will tell you directly. The Southern Kingdom agrees to send troops, but in addition to these funds, I also hope that Da Qin will agree to the Southern Kingdom on one condition." Chi You said to Zhang Yi with a smile.
