The Three Kingdoms

"It is estimated that there will not be many. Although it has been hundreds of years since the Yue Kingdom was destroyed, the development here is obviously not fast. There are [-] households in the entire Yizhou, which is already a good harvest."

With 5 households, there are at least [-] to [-] people, which is not bad.

Landing on Yizhou requires not only the place, but also the manpower. In the whole era, the competition is actually the population. Yuan Shu can become the top prince in the world only because of the two counties of Runan and Nanyang. The population is the largest, and the people in the two counties can compare with the six counties in Jiangdong.

"Zhongmou, are we starting to build a city in this place?" Zhou Yu looked around, staring at this area carefully. This is a very suitable place to build a port-style city.

"Yes, it's here!"

Sun Quan nodded, his eyes brightened, and he stared at the surroundings. The terrain here is flat, with the sea in front and a few mountains in the distance behind, which can be regarded as a barrier.

The first time you land, you can't be too picky. You must build a city as soon as possible as a place for the army to settle down.

"Okay, then I'll go down and set up immediately." Zhou Yu didn't object: "We have a lot of people now, and fortunately we have brought a lot of craftsmen. It is not difficult to build a city."

"and many more!"

Sun Quan stopped him suddenly, and said, "Brother Gongjin, you should send out a few fleets first to find out the situation in the sea area around Yizhou. It will be arranged later."

"By the way, I almost forgot about this!"

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "After the situation is settled, I will send out the four fleets below, A, B, C, and D, to clear up the island of Yizhou and the sea area ten miles away, and mark the sea chart."

Sun Quan nodded and smiled. Zhou Yu was more at ease when he was doing things. He arranged for people one after another, and began to explore the foundation according to the blueprints.

"Don't worry, old man, we are from Central Plains. As long as you stay safe, we won't hurt you. I wonder what this old man's name is?"

"Reporting to this son, this old man is the head of this village. I don't have a name. My surname is Mu. Everyone in this village calls me Old Man Mu." The soldiers will fall from the sky, it really scares him a lot.

Central Plains people?

Old man Mu also got some news about the Central Plains from the mouths of his predecessors. He heard that the Central Plains is very large, full of people, very vicious, and often fights the dead. That's all he knows about the Central Plains.

Are these Chinese people?

There are many legends about the Central Plains people, passed down from generation to generation, but few people have seen the Central Plains people, at least people in their area have never seen them.

"Old Mu, how many people are there in your village?" Sun Quan asked with his eyes brightened.

"We have a total of 380 people here." The village is not big, so the old man Mu can clearly know every household.

"Old Mu, do you know, is there any city nearby?"

"City? The only thing I know is that there is a big town in that direction, but it takes at least a day to get there. I have been there several times and the town is very lively. You can exchange fish for many things." Old man Mu thought about it, but he didn't dare to hide it.

"Is there a town?"

Sun Quan narrowed his eyes. If his guess is correct, this town should be the busiest place around.

He thought for a while, and immediately sent someone to inform Sun Ce to take the town first.

……

Sun Quan looked at the dilapidated houses in the village, and there was really no good place to stay, so he asked soldiers to cut down trees from a distance at the entrance of the village, and built a spacious temporary command house.

From the moment of landing, soldiers and craftsmen, everyone began to be busy. He sat on a big rock, squinted his eyes, looked at the old man, and could say the code name of old man. This man's talk is not like the people in the wilderness. .

"Mu Lao has read books?"

"There are several bamboo slips in the old man's family, which have been handed down from generation to generation. The old man once read them." Looking at the lineup of the Jiangdong army general Xiao Sha, the old man Mu is also appointed. As long as his villagers are not harmed, he will answer any questions. Pretentiously arching his hands, said.

Old man Mu's family passed down some bamboo slips brought by the Wuyue people when they came from the Central Plains. In this area, many people have such bamboo slips in their homes. The words of communication are all written in bird seal characters of Wuyue people

"Old Mu, have you heard of the Central Plains?" Sun Quan looked at the old man with a smile and continued to ask.

"I have heard a little bit that our ancestors also came from the Central Plains, but they couldn't find the way back. They often say that the Central Plains is rich and rich in land and resources." Old Mu nodded.

"Actually, you are also from the Central Plains. We came from the Central Plains to bring you back to the rich Central Plains. We didn't intend to hurt you. Therefore, you'd better ask the people in your village not to attack us."

Sun Quan's eyes were cold and his handsome face looked serious, said.

He didn't want to waste time suppressing these people. Fortunately, people in this area rarely fought wars and didn't know much about wars.

……

three days later.

A simple port, docked with warships, the Jiangdong army has begun to gain a firm foothold in Yizhou, and a city named 'Dongyue' is under construction in full swing.

East means Jiangdong, and Yue even commemorates the group of Wuyue people who landed here and lived here.

There are thousands of Jiangdong civilians plus craftsmen, and these days, Sun Ce has searched the entire northern part of Yizhou. There are tigers and warriors under the car. Basically, these people surrendered as soon as the army arrived.

The northern part of Yizhou was completely emptied, and more than 8000 Yizhou captives were sent back one after another. The Jiangdong navy watched them, but these people did not resist. With concerted efforts, the project of this city went smoothly.

"My lord, we have replenished our water source now, but our food, even if all the food in this area is concentrated, we only have half a month's supply at most!"

On the coast, in a spacious wooden house, Sun Quan was looking at a map of Yizhou that was becoming more and more complete. At this time, outside the house, a logistics officer suddenly walked in and reported in a low voice.

"Is there no food in Yizhou?" Sun Quan asked.

"Young master, they do grow some rice and vegetables, but they don't have many people, and the land they have opened up for planting is not large, and the reserves are naturally not large. Even if they scrape the ground, there are not many, which cannot support our efforts. The army." The middle-aged official who assisted in the logistics replenishment could not help but smile wryly.

"The waterway hasn't been completely clear yet. It's a little difficult to replenish food now. If it's really impossible, I'll go fishing, anyway, I won't die of starvation."

Sun Quan sighed helplessly, and said, "Let me think about this matter, you go and call the Governor of Zhou!"

"promise!"

The middle-aged official nodded and walked on.

[Chapter 174 of the main body of the Gaoshan tribe]

In the wooden house, Sun Quan squinted and stared at a large sand table. This sand table was a topographic map of Yizhou. After the scouts' detection, the northern third of the terrain had been completed.

"Zhongmou."

On Zhou Yu's handsome face, he looked a little tired. He walked in and asked, "Can you find me?"

These days, Sun Quan is in charge of the construction of the new city, supervising the start of construction, and Sun Ce brought the tigers out of the car, flattened the aborigines in this area, and explored the terrain of the land. Zhou Yu was not idle either. He commanded the fleet and explored the terrain around Yizhou from the sea. .

"Come!"

Sun Quan raised his head, waved his hands, and said, "Brother Gongjin, take a look, how is this sand table doing? How different is it from your recent detection?"

"Is this sand table the sand table of Yizhou? Then the blue surrounding area is the sea area?" Zhou Yu asked with a look.

"Ok!"
