Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 1105 Mining

Soon Xu Rong, who was still wearing hemp and filial piety, received the appointment. Guo Jia ordered him to be the prefect of Liaodong, and led his men to guard Liaodong County.

Having soldiers and power is equivalent to Gongsun Du's status.

This is a very powerful office.

Controlling the land of the four counties, Gongsun Du is no more than that.

After receiving the appointment, Xu Rong was perplexed.

He was born in the army, and he was fine in fighting and killing, so he was a prefect?How can I have that ability.

So the man in sackcloth and filial piety broke into Guo Jia's room.

"My lord, do you still take your life back?"

Xu Rong said bravely.

what happened?
Seeing Xu Rong's embarrassment, Guo Jia felt a little relieved. He didn't want to be the governor of Liaodong, which meant he had no ambition to be independent.

This is still a smart person.

"I can't even read all the words. How can I be a prefect? ​​Besides, my lord has a lot of talents. In terms of seniority and ability, why can't I, Xu Rong."

Xu Rong said with a wry smile.

is it?

Guo Jia smiled slightly, and said, "I said you can do it, you can do it. The Liaodong prefect is not that complicated to put it bluntly."

No, no!
Xu Rong still shook his head.

"The subordinates know how much food they can eat, and it's okay to lead troops to fight, but governing the place is simply catching black eyes and messing around. Besides, the subordinates have a bad temper. If they are in the army, they can be restrained. If they don't Scruples, I'm afraid it will be difficult to end."

He is quite self-aware.

That's it!
Guo Jia paused for a moment, then looked at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu was also a little surprised.

Originally, he thought that Xu Rong would be happy to accept this position, after all, this is a place where he can be alone.

It seems that Xu Rong doesn't have much ambition.

"Since General Xu Rong has his own reasons, my lord might as well take it back."

Jia Xu thought about it, but changed her mind immediately.

The Liaodong prefect is a pit, the pit they dug.

Loyal generals are hard to find, since Xu Rong is so devoted to Guo Jiazhong, it is inconvenient for him to let Xu Rong jump into this pit.

Ok!

Guo Jia nodded.

Thank you my lord!

Hearing that Guo Jia withdrew his order, Xu Rong showed a smile on his face.

"My lord, the Xu family has been defeated, and there are still some members of the same family left. Please allow us to move to Yunzhou to settle down."

Xu Rong begged.

He also has his own little abacus.

Although Liaodong is the foundation of the Xu family, it is now in decline. With the help of gunpowder weapons, this world will belong to Guo Jia sooner or later.

He, Xu Rong, should hug this thigh tightly.

Besides, although the Xu family has some reputation in Liaodong, they can only be regarded as landowners in the Central Plains. Xu Rong himself does not have much ability, so he can only follow Guo Jia's footsteps closely, and he may even be able to get the treatment of the founding fathers .

By that time, the Xu family will also become a new family.

no problem!
Hearing what Xu Rong said, Guo Jia also breathed a sigh of relief.

If Xu Rong moved the rest of the tribe to Yunzhou, it would be equivalent to sending all the tribe to Guo Jia as hostages.

In this way, he will naturally not rebel again.

Thank you my lord!

Xu Rong was overjoyed: "This subordinate will arrange for the clansmen to move to Yunzhou."

Said excitedly and left.

Looking at his back, Guo Jia shrugged helplessly.

"Wenhe, something is beyond your expectation!"

He said meaningfully.

Jia Xu also nodded.

Xu Rong has a violent personality, cruel and murderous, and is not easy to control. His Liangzhou army is also loyal to him.

Potential risk in the Praetorian Guard.

The old fox originally planned to get rid of Fuyu and Goguryeo by means of two peaches and three warriors, and by the way, let Xu Rong breed his ambition, and then get rid of this potential risk element without hesitation.

Three birds with one stone!
Unfortunately, he miscalculated Xu Rong's ambition.

He obediently handed over his military power and clan members, intending to work diligently for Guo Jia.

In this way, it would be inconvenient for Jia Xu to deceive people.

Two peaches kill three warriors also declared shattered.

Because the natives of Sanhan simply did not have the strength to stand up to Goguryeo and Buyeo.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms can't be played, it can only be played with differentiation.

In this way, we can only count on the newly appointed Liaodong prefect to implement it.

The Liaodong prefect is the key to this plan. If there is no suitable candidate, this plan will not be so easy to set up.

It seems that there is still a need to find a suitable person to serve as the governor of Liaodong.

Who will be the governor of Liaodong?
Both Guo Jia and Jia Xu frowned in unison.

In fact, leaving aside the question of whether to cheat or not, Xu Rong is really the best candidate.

Because he is the most familiar with this place.

But since he didn't want to stay in Liaodong, Guo Jia naturally wouldn't make things difficult for others. He was willing to be loyal to him, so Guo Jia couldn't cheat his loyal subordinates anymore.

"It's better to transfer Guorang over."

Guo Jia said suddenly.

Guo Rang is Tian Yu.

In the later period of Cao Wei, Tian Yu could be said to be alone in Youzhou, and the various tribes he fought did not dare to look directly at the Central Plains.

Tian Yu is a talented individual with a lot of means, and he doesn't have too much ambition. It is very appropriate to put him in the key position of Liaodong.

Tian Yu?

Jia Xu froze for a moment, he had no impression of this person.

But he began to trust Guo Jia's vision.

Since Guo Jia put Tian Yu here, there must be a reason for him.

Killing two peaches and killing three warriors is not fun, so there is no need to call Goguryeo to a meeting.

As soon as Tian Yu arrived, Guo Jia sent his troops eastward to completely wipe out Goguryeo.

Then comes the most important question.

That is mining!
North Korea's mineral deposits in later generations are very rich and of high quality, especially the copper mines that are in short supply in the Central Plains.

The Central Plains is extremely short of copper mines, so the casting technology of bronze cannons is very mature, but the output has not been able to increase.

It is because of copper deficiency.

The input of Liaodong ore can completely solve this problem.

Guo Jia found several mines rich in copper mines from memory, and began to mobilize the army to build mines.

After the mine was built, Guo Jia built a port again to transport the mined ore by large ships.

Because although the mine is rich in mineral resources, it lacks a smelter and can only be transported to Jizhou.

Chickens and eggs cannot be put in the same basket. Since Liaodong has built a mine, it is not suitable to build a smelter.

Guo Jia had no choice but to build a large-scale smelter in Jizhou, because Jizhou has abundant coal resources and water transportation is also very convenient.

The smelted copper and iron were directly transported to the foundry in Yunzhou, where they were made into artillery and armor by master craftsmen.

After Tian Yu arrived, he immediately started to build a mine and hired local aborigines to mine.

There are many Sanhan natives living in the southern part of Lelang County. They live in a very primitive way. The conditions offered by the mine made them join the mine without hesitation and act as cheap miners.

Since then, copper and iron ore from Liaodong have been continuously transported to Jizhou, and the remaining copper and iron after smelting have greatly enriched Yunzhou's casting.
