The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

It's really important there, it's definitely China's sea gateway, even if it falls into Jiangdong's hands, but since then, if you want to recapture it in the future, you will suffer a great loss.

And once it is taken there, the big man will be able to block Jiangdong at sea.Chen Ziming wanted Jiangdong to attack Nanyue, but he didn't want them to go to sea.

The overseas world is really too big, and in this era, not only big men are powerful, there is also a powerful country in the West, but the technology is far from that of big men.

Chen Ziming didn't want Jiang Dong to go to sea privately and leak some technology, which would affect Chen Ziming's ambitions in the future.

Chapter 368

"Report to the Prime Minister, Gu Yong, the envoy from Jiangdong, begs to see you." Cao Cao, who returned to Chenliu in Yanzhou again, was lamenting the changes of the times and the impermanence of the world, when Gu Yong, the envoy of Sun Quan, arrived in Chenliu.

"Biography..." Cao Cao thought for a while, and guessed what Gu Yong was talking about here.

The purpose of Gu Yong's coming here is very simple. He didn't ask Cao Cao why he sent troops to attack Jiangdong, nor did he please Cao Cao.

But don't mess with Jiang Dong, otherwise Jiang Dong will unite with one to kill the other.

Cao Cao learned that Sun Quan had completely controlled Jiangdong, and there was no turmoil as he thought. Liu Bei sent a large army to contain him, so he had to give up his plan to attack Jiangdong.

After all, with Cao Cao's current strength, he is not qualified to face the double attack of Liu Bei and Sun Quan at the same time, but since Liu Bei has no intention of attacking Jiangdong, what can Cao Cao say.

Xinran shook hands with Jiangdong and made peace. Although he can no longer join forces with Jiangdong to deal with Liu Bei, there is still no problem with the exchange between the two places. Jiangdong has more food, which is very important to Cao Cao.

The turmoil in Jiangdong came and went quickly. From Sun Ce's assassination to Sun Cao's peace negotiation, it took only three months. It can be called a miracle of regime change.

"There is Sun Quan in Jiangdong, and we need to be careful in the future. Xuzhou's soldiers and horses are indispensable, and Xu Rong's camp in Langya County must not be moved lightly." Chen Ziming attaches great importance to Sun Quan's power. Not impossible.

"Ziming, since Jiangdong is no longer involved in the war in the north, can we start to deal with Cao Cao?" Liu Bei couldn't wait to unify the north.

Chen Ziming thought for a while and said, "Cao Cao is so powerful that he cannot be defeated overnight."

Walking to a huge map, Chen Ziming pointed to the protruding Yanzhou and said: "Yanzhou, the place where Cao Cao started his family, has a deep foundation. It deeply threatens Linzi, Qingzhou. He can attack Jizhou in the north, but it is difficult to enter Xuzhou. The land of one state involves our soldiers and horses from three states, so we must go."

"That's the case." After hearing this, Liu Bei's eyes flashed brightly, and he said coldly: "This year the Han Dynasty has a rich autumn harvest, and there is a lot of surplus food. In the coming year, soldiers and horses can besiege Yanzhou from three sides and take it down."

"Brother." Chen Ziming frowned and said, "According to the spy report, although Jiangdong is ready to go south, the army has not moved."

Chen Ziming hesitated, and said: "I guess, one is that Sun Quan has not yet fully grasped the power of Jiangdong, and the other is that Sun Quan has not fully focused on the matter of the Southern Expedition, and is still watching the movement in the North."

When Liu Bei heard that things were going wrong, he hurriedly asked: "What Zi Ming means, is it possible for Jiang Dong to turn against the water?"

"Of course." Chen Ziming said helplessly: "Sun Quan has a long-term vision, and he doesn't know that once the big Han dominates the north, he will directly threaten Jiangdong. If my guess is right, even if Sun Quan sends a large army to the south, he will leave some soldiers behind In the land of Jiangdong, when there is a change in the north, he will definitely lead his army northward."

"This..." Liu Bei had nothing to do about it, and Sun Quan's doing so made sense. If Liu Bei was sitting in Jiangdong, it was impossible to completely give up his plan to go north. Besides, leaving some soldiers and horses to guard Jiangdong, no one could say what.

"Yanzhou, it's not time to take it yet." Chen Ziming continued: "If Yanzhou is moved, Cao Cao's entire army will surely overwhelm. At that time, we will have a decisive battle with Cao Cao."

"If Sun Quan takes the opportunity to send troops northward, neither we nor Cao Cao can resist. If Yanzhou is moved, it will take a large number of troops from Jiangdong to go south."

In the end, Liu Bei had no choice but to give up his plan to attack Yanzhou. After all, Chen Ziming's risky layout should not cause Jiangdong to favor Cao Cao again because of his eagerness for quick success.

Without Jiangdong's participation, Liu Bei still had the confidence to kill Cao Cao and rule the north.

Since there was no plan to prepare for the war, Chen Ziming took another vacation for himself, but this time he had a valid reason, because Cai Yan was about to give birth, and he had to go back to accompany his wife and children.

Liu Bei could only laugh it off, and let Chen Ziming be lazy. Now that the big man is on the right track, he can completely let go of the people's livelihood and government affairs, because any department has formed an independent management system.

Not only can all aspects of Dahan, and all grassroots operate independently without problems, but more importantly, there will be absolutely no dominance of one party.

As for the army, Chen Ziming separated the military from the government from the very beginning, and imposed many restrictions on the leading generals, so that the power of these generals could be weakened without affecting the overall battle.

Of course, the most important thing is that Chen Ziming made the grassroots soldiers have their own ideas, that is, to open up the wisdom of the people. In fact, this is Chen Ziming's greatest achievement.

Under Liu Bei's rule, not only primary schools were established in various places, but also secondary schools were established in every county, and no county has begun to prepare for the establishment of university schools, all of which are for the enlightenment of the people.

However, it is not so easy to establish a university school, at least for the professional knowledge taught, the professional talents needed are really scarce. Now Liu Bei’s various fields need a large number of professional talents, and there are not many people who can be spared to serve as university students. teacher.

More importantly, there are no suitable textbooks for the knowledge in the university, and Chen Ziming knows very little. The textbooks he produced are basically the elementary education. As for the middle school, he only knows a part, most of which are from Linzi. Those senior intellectuals in the academy slowly accumulated and perfected.

As for the university, Chen Ziming only gave a general direction, that is specialization and refinement.

It is worth mentioning that Linzi Academy has opened branches in Xuzhou, Jizhou and Youzhou, and it is precisely to cultivate a large number of high-level talents.

And Linzi's first batch of academies from Linzi Academy have grown up, and they have climbed from the most basic level of officials to the chief executives of one party step by step.

Moreover, the subsequent generations of talents have also begun to keep up with the rhythm, and there has been no disconnection. Today's big man can completely get rid of the control of the clan talents.

It can be said that the current clan no longer has the ability to threaten Liu Bei. Of course, the clan cannot be underestimated. After all, their accumulation from generation to generation and their local prestige are still very high.

The most important thing is that although the middle and low-level officials of the Han Dynasty have been occupied by a large number of poor scholars from Linzi Academy, there are still many clan children in the high-level positions who hold important positions.

The disadvantages of poor people are also gradually revealed. For example, in the field of corruption, the proportion of poor people is very high. This is the limitation of poor people. They are used to living a hard life. Once they try that kind of corrupt life, they will easily fall into it , thus being pulled into the water by local tyrants and merchants, unable to extricate themselves.

Chapter 369

Now the Central Plains is peaceful, and it is rare that there is no war. Now there are only four powers left in the Central Plains, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Zhang.

Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan can be described as three-legged confrontation, and there is no breakthrough for a while. Only after Sun Quan's army goes south can Liu Bei and Cao Cao continue to fight.

As for Liu Zhang, no one seemed to take the Emperor of Shu Han seriously, not even Zhang Lu of Hanzhong at his gate. If there was no danger in Shu, Zhang Lu might have gone in and killed the emperor.

But now Zhang Lu also felt the pressure, Cao Cao had sent someone to persuade Zhang Lu to surrender, but Zhang Lu still wanted to continue to be his King of Hanzhong, but he had no intention of surrendering.

The world was peaceful and Chen Ziming was living a leisurely life, but Liu Bei sent someone to recruit Chen Ziming, breaking this comfortable life, saying that a foreign envoy came to see Liu Bei.

Chen Ziming was very surprised. There are not many envoys around the Han Dynasty. There are a few small countries in the south, but they are about to face the Jiangdong army, and they are far away from here. The person who asked to see him should also be Sun Quan.

There is a vast ocean in the east, and the country of Wa, which has not yet grown up, has disappeared in the long river of history, and other countries have not yet been able to cross the sea.

As for the north, several small countries are already in the territory of the big man. As for Xianbei and the Xiongnu, they are fighting fiercely now, so they have time to provoke the big man.

The only thing Chen Ziming could think of was the countries in the west.According to Chen Ziming's memory, there are several great countries in the west, such as the Guishuang Empire, which is close to the Han Dynasty, which is a powerful country.

In Chen Ziming's head, he kept recalling the development status of the countries in the world during the Three Kingdoms period, and at the same time secretly thinking, this world, and which country can become a strong enemy of the big man.

The Guishuang Empire, the Parthian Empire, and the Roman Empire are all very powerful now, but the Roman Empire has not yet been able to come to the east, and the Parthian Empire is also far away. The most likely one is the Guishuang Empire. As for other small countries, they all rely on these few countries. In a big country, it may be destroyed at any time.

"Huh? Monk!" As soon as Chen Ziming walked to the entrance of the political hall, he saw five bald heads standing there, chattering, and a man who was suspected to be a Qiang man was translating to Liu Bei not far away.

Liu Bei brought Chen Ziming over, hurriedly beckoned Chen Ziming to pass, and at the same time stopped talking with these monks.

Chen Ziming understood. According to historical records, as early as the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, there were records of monks coming to Dahan to preach. However, monks were not very popular at that time, so the emperor of Dahan greeted him a little, and then threw it to the people below to dismiss him. .

During the hundreds of years of the Han Dynasty, there were also monks who came to the Han Dynasty to play the autumn wind, but because the emperor of the Han Dynasty didn’t like the monks very much, and at that time Confucianism had not completely occupied the center of the political power, and the world had not been corrupted by Confucianism, so the safety of Buddhism I don't think much of it.
