Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 525 Danyang City after the War
Although Jingbei has basically emerged from the impact of the war, Zhu Wei still hopes that Jingbei will focus on stabilizing internal affairs for the time being, so a suitable civil servant is needed to preside over internal affairs.

The problem is that the loyalty of Zhu Wei's civil servants in Xiangyang, such as Jia Xu, Kuai Liang, Han Song, Xiang Lang, Song Zhong, Liu Ba, Liu Xian, etc., cannot be completely trusted by Zhu Wei.

As for the newly joined Zhuge Jin, Zhu Wei was going to take him to Jiangdong, so after thinking about it in his heart, he really couldn't find a suitable person for a while.

In fact, Zhu Wei intended to send Zhang Zhao who stayed in Yuzhang. After all, Yuzhang could no longer be Zhu Wei's military and political center, so Zhang Zhao should be able to go to Jingbei to preside over the overall situation.

With Zhang Zhao's ability and reputation, replacing Zhu Wei in charge of the overall situation in Xiangyang is enough to deter other civil and military people and stabilize people's hearts.

But the problem is that it will take time for Zhang Zhao to come over. Jiangdong really needs Zhu Wei to go there as soon as possible, so after thinking twice, Zhu Wei can only leave Xu Shu behind first, and then send a transfer order to Yuzhang to wait for Zhang Zhao After going to Jingbei to preside over the overall situation, let Xu Shu turn to Jiangdong.

After such a general arrangement, in the first ten days of August of 197, Zhu Weicai officially sailed down the river eastward to Danyang City.

It took four days for Zhu Wei to land in Dantu County, Jiangdong.

Then, under the protection of five thousand crossbow archers from the Zhongjun Battalion and three thousand personal guards from the Baiyu Battalion, Zhu Wei finally came to Danyang City, the current prefecture of Jiangdong.

Now Zhu Wei is not the original white-bodied Confucian scholar. He no longer needs to look at other people's colors, and he will no longer be suppressed and restrained by someone on his head. The capital city of the state.

But at this time, Danyang City is like a big barracks, but also like a big construction site.

Danyang City, which was originally burned to ashes by Sun Ce, is now being rebuilt under Wang Yuyan's arrangement. It can be said that it will become a brand new city.

Now Wang Yuyan controls a large number of young and strong laborers. Except for the two elite main forces of the Xiongba Battalion and the Shenjian Battalion, Huang Zhong's Jiangdong Battalion, Cai Mao's Jiangling Navy, and Zhou Yu, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, etc. , Chen Wu, Yan Baihu, and Yan Yu's surrenders and coercion of young adults were all reorganized by Wang Yuyan.

Just like the original practice in the Zhu Wei Army, many soldiers who were too young or too old, or whose physical fitness was not up to standard, were eliminated one after another, or they were organized into the auxiliary army, or they were directly disarmed and returned to the fields to become ordinary people. .

Of course, while eliminating these weak soldiers, Wang Yuyan will also fill them with selected young and strong recruits, so people will not think that Wang Yuyan is taking the opportunity to weaken their military power.

In particular, Cai Mao was still a little cautious, but he was relieved to see Wang Yuyan quickly replenish his troops and restore the army's establishment.

As for Huang Zhong, he didn't care about it. He was originally thinking about rectifying the army that was like a hodgepodge of his opponents. Now that Wang Yuyan came forward, he and his subordinates Zhang Ying, Yu Pan, Chen Heng, Mao Gan, and Jin Qi were reduced. contradiction.

Of course, the new recruits now filling Huang Zhongjiang's East Camp have also become Huang Zhong's direct army, which can help Huang Zhong check and balance the generals who originally controlled the military power, and let Huang Zhong truly control this army.

Under Wang Yuyan's arrangement, Huang Zhong's Jiangdong camp actually assumed the duty of guarding Jiangdong.

The Yangtze River defense lines against Yuan Shu, such as Liyang Military Town, Niuzhu Camp, Hengjiang, and Dangli Ferry, were originally separated from Taishi Ci Shenjian Camp, but were soon handed over to the control of Huang Zhong's Jiangdong Camp.

So Ma Zhong, Zhang Shuo, Chen Ying, Bao Long and other generals of the Shenjian Battalion who were scattered in these places also returned to the formation of the Shenjian Battalion with their troops.

In the end, the number of Huang Zhong's Jiangdong battalion troops, under Wang Yuyan's arrangement, actually reached as many as [-] to [-], and most of them were selected elite soldiers. An army with a certain combat effectiveness.

But even after such a large-scale reorganization, Wang Yuyan still has a lot of labor available in her hands, and many eliminated soldiers have been organized into auxiliary soldiers in the fields, just like the experience of reorganization in Yuzhang. In fact, it is logistics that can do anything. force.

In addition, this time in and around Danyang City, many people who were coerced by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were resettled. Now these people have nothing to do for the time being, and most of them need the government to provide money and food to stabilize their lives.

Therefore, Wang Yuyan once again followed the previous experience of resettling and relocating people in Yuzhang, and adopted the method of labor relief to use these idle manpower, either to rebuild Danyang City, or to carry out the surrounding villages outside Danyang City. At the same time, some basic works of bridge repair and road paving are also carried out.

Anyway, under Wang Yuyan's measures, Danyang City and the surrounding areas of the city, which had experienced the war, were basically full of construction sites. However, Wang Yuyan's arrangement also made the hearts of the people whose homes were broken and uneasy due to the war gradually stabilized. down.

After all, everyone has something to do, and they can obtain money, food and private property through labor to support their families, which means they have the hope of living. The hearts of ordinary people are actually very simple.

Of course, in order to restore the post-war affairs in Danyang, Wang Yuyan also spent a lot on Jiangdong's side.

Fortunately, when Sun Ce and Zhou Yu swept Danyang and Wujun, they plundered a large amount of property. Now that Wang Yuyan confiscated these properties, they have become the basic source of financial resources to restore Danyang.

At the same time, Wang Yuyan also allocated food and supplies from the southwestern counties of Danyang County, Yuzhang County, and Kuaiji County, which were not affected by the war, so it can still meet the current expenses of Danyang City for the time being.

Of course, after this battle in Jiangdong, the counties and counties in Jiangdong were completely attached to Zhu Wei's name. Wang Yuyan's allocation of supplies, the localities did not dare to neglect, they just tried their best to cooperate, and only hoped that they could be on Wang Yuyan's side Make a good impression.

As for Wang Lang of Kuaiji County, he originally belonged to a local power in Jiangdong with the nature of an independent foreign vassal, but because of the relationship between Wang Lang and Wang Yuyan, now Wang Lang has completely included Ji County as a whole in Jiangdong.

Even the Kuaiji army controlled by Zhou Xin was completely handed over to Wang Yuyan for reorganization and deployment.

Wang Yuyan also politely changed Zhou Xin from the position of the leader of the Kuaiji army to the leader of the Jiangdong Tuntian camp formed by eliminating auxiliary soldiers from various armies. As for the original Kuaiji soldiers, they were also brought together under Wang Yuyan's direct subordinates.

Of course, Wang Yuyan had consulted Zhou Xin's opinion beforehand, and Zhou Xin had no objection to this arrangement.

In fact, Zhou Xin is not too young now, and has long since lost his original intention of fighting for meritorious service. Therefore, now that Wang Yuyan arranges him in such a position, it can be regarded as allowing him to retire as the head of the village camp.

Even though he is the chief general of the Tuntian camp in charge of all the auxiliary troops, his troops are like Teng Huxiong left in Yuzhang. In fact, it can be regarded as a good position in the army...
