The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Zhuge Liang had seen these soldiers who surrendered, they had no fighting spirit, and they were just farmers, they hadn't even been trained. When they surrendered, they didn't even have weapons in their hands.

"The rest of the people, the elite will be drawn out, and the rest will be sent back to the various places in Jiangdong, and the governments in various places in Jiangdong will be responsible for resettlement."

Jiangdong is resuming production and needs a lot of labor, and most of these people are from Jiangdong, returning to their hometowns to work in agriculture is the best choice.

"In this battle, General Ding will take the lead."

When reporting their military achievements, both Gao Lan and Zhuge Liang gave up the first contribution to Ding Feng. It wasn't that they looked down on this first contribution, but that Ding Feng could afford it.

"Thank you General, thank you Military Advisor."

After hearing this, Ding Feng was very moved. What a great contribution to take the first victory in the next state. If Gao Lan or Zhuge Liang wanted to monopolize the contribution, Ding Feng would have nothing to say. After all, both of them are in positions above him. He's just a scapegoat.

But now that he got this first credit, it is so important. With this credit, he can formally gain a foothold on Boss Liu's side. As long as he doesn't make a big mistake in the future, he will definitely not be left idle.

Gao Lan went to Jiaozhou in the first battle, and he won a complete victory, shocking the world.

Soon after, Zhuge Liang sent a letter of advice to Liu Bei, talking about the governance of Jiaozhou, Liu Bei valued it, and ordered Zhuge Liang to be in charge of the governance of Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou is very large, with high mountains blocking the roads, and the roads are impassable. Although it has been governed by Sun Quan, the effect is not great. Compared with the prosperous Central Plains, it is much worse.

Zhuge Liang directly divided Jiaozhou into three parts according to the current standards of the Han Dynasty. That is to say, Jiaozhou was removed from the Han Dynasty and re-divided into three states, with counties under the state and counties under the county.

At the same time, a large number of capable officials were transferred to serve in Jiaozhou. Their task was not to collect taxes for a long time, but to develop water conservancy in Jiaozhou, resettle refugees, open up wasteland and cultivate fields, so that all people have fields and work for all people.

If you are bored, I will give you dozens of acres of land. If you are not satisfied with the planting, you will take it back. If you are full of planting, it will be yours. No tax will be charged for three years.

There is nothing to do during the slack season, don't think about rebellion, go to build roads, get money, and take care of food.

Landlords and rich oppressors, it’s okay, report to the government, directly ransack the house, the land belongs to you, and everyone shares the money.

Clans, the people dare not provoke them, Zhuge Liang dares, Jiaozhou clans are not many, and have a greater influence, Zhuge Liang has only one way, either hand over the land, or confiscate the family and exterminate the clan. Anyway, this is Liu Bei's initiative, and no one dares to object.

Of course, Zhuge Liang didn't act harshly either. After all, he was also from a clan, so he gave the clan some compensation and taught the clan how to do business. After all, if Jiaozhou wants to become rich, it can't just rely on farming, it needs to vigorously develop commerce.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, the government has professionals, from factory construction to production technology, to sales channels, one-stop service, you just need to take the money out, make money, pay taxes first, of course, you must learn all kinds of laws and regulations.

In half a year, Jiaozhou was governed. Although it was not rich, there was food, clothing, housing, and no bullying. Who would eat too much to rebel? A college was opened in Jiaozhou, and the people of Jiaozhou began to be fully affected. educate.

It can be foreseen that the next generation of Jiaozhou will fully integrate into the Dahan, completely become a part of the Dahan, and contribute to the development and growth of the Dahan.

At the same time that Jiaozhou was under great rule, South Vietnam was also thriving. Compared with South Vietnam governed by Sun Quan, the big man was obviously much more professional, and his methods were not comparable to those who were half-way monks like Sun Quan.

South Vietnam was divided into two states, that is, Dahan’s Vietnam and Vietnam’s North states. The two states began to build cities and roads, and opened sea routes at the same time. Dahan’s merchant ships could go directly from the sea to Vietnam and Vietnam’s North states.

Erzhou has countless mineral resources, but it is a pity that mining is difficult and remains to be discovered, but Erzhou has the best conditions, that is, the rice production conditions of three crops a year. With the strong support of the big man, Erzhou has reclaimed countless farmlands. Become the first granary of the big man.

Now no one in the court is talking about the barbaric land in the South, and it is useless to take it. Shiploads of grain are shipped to various places in the Han Dynasty, and the shortage of food in the Han Dynasty is gone forever.

Jiaozhou and Nanyue were completely stabilized in a short period of time and became the granaries of the Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong contributed a lot. Their political talents began to be highlighted and they were valued by all parties.

Chen Gong, who was in charge of the Government Affairs Council, approached Chen Ziming many times, and wanted to transfer Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong to the Government Affairs Council, because their abilities were indeed too attractive, and Chen Gong, who was under too much work pressure, was going to find some wage earners.

Chapter 668 Divide into Three Ways

Let Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong come back to work, of course Chen Ziming will not do it. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are still young and don't let them run more errands. Do you want Chen Ziming to run around?

But having said that, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong have stayed for so long, so it is time to make a move. The main reason is that the [-] army has been prepared, and the food and grass are in place. It is time to continue the southern expedition and completely control the south.

After more than three months of negotiations, the missions of various countries and the big man have reached a preliminary agreement to determine the general details of the trade route, such as which places the trade route will pass through and which country will be responsible for the safety of the trade route.

The customs clearance and inspection standards of various countries, the collection standards of commercial taxes, and the safety of merchants have been discussed one by one, and the documents have been formulated.

The opening of trade routes is beneficial to everyone, and no one will oppose it. However, the Sasanian Dynasty refused to open a trade route with Rome. The reason is very simple. King Ardashir of the Sasanian Dynasty is very ambitious. Defeat the mighty Roman Empire.

In order to compete for the control of several small countries between Rome and the Sasanian Dynasty, the Sassanian Dynasty is ready to go to war with Rome. Of course, the Sassanian Dynasty does not want the Han to have contact with Rome, or even Rome to join this interest group Come.

For the Sassanian Dynasty to be so tough, the big man has nothing to do, who told the Sassanian Dynasty to just block the road to Rome, and it is their right to prevent the caravan from passing.

This also strengthened the determination of the Han Dynasty to open the northern trade route. The northern trade route can bypass the Guishuang Empire and the Sassanian Dynasty, and directly lead to European countries and directly to the Roman Empire.

Having made a decision, the Great Han began to negotiate with Dawan, Kangju and other countries, and sent envoys to discuss the business route with the Northern Huns.

When the missions from various countries in the west were about to return home, Liu Bei returned the gift one by one. The gift was very rich in the color of the Chinese clan, a set of hardcover classics such as the Analects of Confucius, the Spring and Autumn Annals, Laozi, and the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

There are also carefully selected tea, porcelain, rice paper, silk and a set of four treasures of the study.

Generally speaking, each return gift is worth a lot, but this value is measured by the commercial price in the western countries. As for the value in Dahan, how should I put it, ordinary people cannot afford these high-end things.

Of course, some of the envoys were not ignorant. Among them, Moulton, the envoy of the Sasanian Dynasty, proposed that he wanted the method of making rice paper, and even the craftsmanship of ceramics. The way this fine wine is made.

After hearing this, Chen Ziming refused, "Are you kidding? This is the treasure of a big man. Chen Ziming still wants to rely on these things to obtain gold, silver and jewelry from various countries in the west. In Chen Ziming's words, the eggs can be sold to you, but the hen wants to buy them all." Forget it.

As for stealing, try it out, the place where the envoys of various countries live is surrounded by countless soldiers and horses, don't even think about leaving quietly, they are accompanied by several smart people when they travel, everything is under the supervision of the big man, and the reputation is to protect their safety After all, the big man just ended the war.

"Weapons, it's not impossible. After all, so many escaped weapons are useless, and the cost of remelting them is too high."

When Morton, the envoy of the Sasanian Dynasty, saw the sharpness and tenacity of the weapons of the Han Dynasty, he immediately asked to buy a large number of weapons of the Han Dynasty. Chen Ziming did not refuse. After the war, Liu Bei hoarded weapons like mountains.

Not to mention the soldiers eliminated by the big man himself, there are millions of them taken from Cao Cao and Sun Quan. All these soldiers are recycled, and it is impossible to let them live among the people.

However, the generals of the Han Dynasty looked down on these broken copper and rotten iron. The cost of refurbishing is higher than that of new ones. Now the Han Dynasty has no shortage of iron ore. There are several huge iron ore factories above the sea. iron ore.

Selling them to the countries in the west is a good solution. Of course, according to Moulton's intention, these weapons cannot be sold to other countries, but only to the Sasanian dynasty. How could Chen Ziming agree.

Not to mention whether the Sasanian Dynasty has the ability to buy all the hoarded old weapons, even if there is, Chen Ziming will not do so. Chen Ziming does not want the Sasanian Dynasty to dominate. This is not in the interests of the big man, and it is better to divide the interests equally.

The big man is willing to sell weapons, and everyone is so happy. All the western countries put the purchase of big man's weapons first, especially the Guishuang Empire is the most enthusiastic, because they know that their archenemy, the Sassanid Dynasty, is about to buy a large number of big men excellent weapons.

After sending the mission away, Chen Ziming ordered that the military department start to send people to maintain those waste armors so that they don't get rusty. They are all gold, which is very valuable. In the eyes of the western countries, it is worth a lot of money. , These are magical weapons, and many countries still use copper wares.

"Marry the Han princess..."

When Barrett, the envoy of the Guishuang Empire, proposed marriage to Liu Bei, Liu Bei's face immediately turned cold. He has a daughter, but she is not yet ten years old, and no matter what, Liu Bei is unwilling to use his daughter for marriage.

"Marriage is fine, send the most beautiful princess of your country to the big man..." Chen Ziming was also rude, the Guishuang Empire really thought he was great, and dared to ask the big man to send the princess to marry.

"From now on, the big man will never get married." The so-called marriage is to send the princess to marry another country. This is using a woman to benefit the big man, and a bloody man will not agree to it.

"The Guishuang Empire is becoming more and more presumptuous." The envoys of the Guishuang Empire repeatedly made unreasonable demands, which completely angered Liu Bei. They really thought that the big man had just experienced civil strife and would not dare to go to war with the Guishuang Empire. ,

"Wen Yuan came to report that the army had gathered at Yumen Pass, and he was going to divide his troops into three routes: south, north, and middle. He rashly took [-] soldiers and horses as the middle route, and went out of Yumen to attack Loulan, Shanguo, Weixuguo, Puli, Yanqi, Wu corrupted Zi, Qiuci, Gumo, Weitou and other countries until they took over the drug-donating countries."

"Southern Route Wenpin led [-] troops to attack Ruoqiang, Qiemo, Xiaowan, Ronglu, Shule, Mi, Pishan, Xiye, Puli, Yinai, Shache and other countries."

"Northern route Zhang Xiu commanded [-] people to attack Pulei, Pulei Houguo, Cheshiqianguo, Cheshihouguo, Cheshiweiduguo, Cheshihouchengguo, Jieguo, Xiqimi, Beilu, Wu Tanzi, Bei Lu Hou Guo, Shan Huan and other countries."

"The armies of the three routes converged in the country of Xiuyu. The country of Xiuyu is backed by Congling, adjacent to the Guishuang Empire, and secretly supported by the Guishuang Empire. It is also the main communication route between the Guishuang Empire and the big Han. It is a place that must be contested by military strategists."
