After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 494 Move the capital to Chang'an

The situation in the Jin Kingdom stabilized again. Zhao Wuxie led Han Hu and Wei Ju to launch an attack on the Zhi family. In a short period of time, the three families divided the Zhi family. At the same time, Zhishi was killed from top to bottom.

Duke Chu of Jin was furious, but his current strength was not enough. After thinking twice, he still sent envoys to Qi State to ask for help, because the current Qi State has become faint and has become the backbone of other vassal states.

Meng Di was overjoyed when he got the news in Huaicheng. It is obvious that the three families of Han, Zhao, and Wei have taken control of the situation in Jin. Although Duke Jin sent envoys in secret, it is conceivable that once the news leaks in the future, the Duke of Jin will end up in trouble.

If this is the case, it means that the state of Jin will be in turmoil for a short period of time. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. After this period of hard work, many roads have been built.

Many waterways have been connected to each other. Although a lot of money was spent at once, the commerce and trade of Han Kingdom have been greatly promoted, and the fiscal revenue has also increased slightly, which is not the most important thing.

With these roads and waterways, it will take less time to transport soldiers. Mengdi can finally take a breath and continue to expand the army, so the Han country moved quickly up and down.

In a short period of time, nearly 30 troops have been recruited. Meng Di is still not too radical, and maintains the number of infantry to 15, cavalry to 30, and the rest are all rural soldiers.

They just raised their level and strengthened their training in case of emergencies. At the same time, Wu Qi was transferred back to Huaicheng to train troops, and Liu Xiatuo was sent to guard Pengcheng. After a period of training, the Northern Expedition could begin.

At the same time, Sun Wu also began to lead his troops towards the Yangyue area. Through division and wooing, he patiently began to occupy the local area. Although these places are relatively barren, they are connected to Bashu.

For the sake of safety, it is still necessary to take it as soon as possible to cooperate with Shen Zhuliang's actions in Bashu. Now most of the tribes in Bashu have been under the rule of the Han army. Now that Sun Wu sent troops again, King Ba was also terrified.

In the end, King Ba chose to surrender after careful consideration. According to Meng Di's wishes, he took his family members to Huai City. In this way, Bashu was completely pacified, but it would take a while to stabilize.

Mengdi asked Shen Zhuliang to guard Bashu, and at the same time train troops to reclaim fields. In this way, the strategy of Han to unify the south was successfully completed. At this time, Wenzhong finally built Chang'an City, and mobilized about 30 civilians, which lasted for nearly a year.

Finally, a city was built, a solid city behind a high wall. Because of the sufficient food and grass and the remuneration of these peasants, instead of actively engaging in civil uprisings, the people of the Qin State had a deeper understanding of the New Deal of the Han State.

So in the spring of the next year, Mengdi directly ordered the capital to be moved, and the mighty team started from Huaicheng, and entered by the way, to the old land of Wuyue and Chu, and inspected the place.

Then he entered Bashu and stayed for half a month, and then set off for Chang'an again. Mengdi looked at the majestic city in front of him, with a look of nostalgia on his face, although the city was slightly different from his impression.

But the same tall and majestic, Wen Zhong and Fan Li came out to greet them with a group of civil officials and military generals. After entering the city, they celebrated in the same city. This time, more than 20 households voluntarily followed from Huai City.

In addition, those wealthy businessmen spent a lot of food, but the effect was extremely obvious. With such a big move along the way, except for some people who died of illness due to their weak health.

Most of the people arrived at Chang'an City safely. This was also a test of Han's organizational capabilities. After the news came out, the world was shaken, because this had sent an extraordinary signal.

That is, Han might be ready to go to war, but Meng Di called Yu Rang over and gave orders.

"Jin Chugong sent an envoy to Qi, and he should have received the reward. In this case, then we will release the news. No matter what Zhao Wuxie and the others think in their hearts, they will be forced to act after receiving the news. reaction."

"We can seize this opportunity to go to war directly against Jin. After all, we signed a peace treaty with Jin before. If something happens to the Duke of Jin, we can have a reason to send troops to Jin."

Yu Rang nodded after listening, thought for a while, and then asked.

"What if Zhao Xiangzi and the others are not moved, but bear it? Then do we need to send some people to Jin to do something? Or send troops to test it?"

And Meng Di shook his head slightly, with a confident look on his face, and then said.

"Zhao Wuxie is not that stupid. No matter whether he wants to or not, it is impossible for him to stay in the state of Jin. The reason is very simple. A monarch already has other ideas about them, if he continues to stay."

"The Zhao family is likely to face danger again, so we don't need to do this kind of dirty work. He must know very well in his heart that this is just an excuse. Instead of doing this, he will definitely find a way to control Jin."

"Only in this way can we concentrate all the strength of the Jin State to fight us to the death. Otherwise, if the Jin State continues to maintain this situation, it is very likely that it will fall into a split. This is the most dangerous."

After arranging this matter, Meng Di summoned everyone to start discussing, and Fan Li was the first to talk about the next step of dispatching troops.

"If we want to attack Jin, we still have another problem to eradicate. That is Yiqu in the west. They are getting stronger and stronger, and they have carried out reforms according to the system of the Central Plains."

"To some extent, it is already a vassal state, so although its strength is not very strong, its main force is also cavalry, but if their main force cannot be wiped out."

"Once we are fighting in the future, if they cause some trouble behind the scenes, then Chang'an will be in danger, so I suggest that at this time, we should first send troops to attack Yiqu. Only when they are completely put down, we will have no worries. "

Peng Ji, who was sitting on the side, also nodded approvingly. He was a local, knew the situation of Qin State very well, and agreed with Fan Li's opinion very much, so he spoke.

"I agree with Master Fan's opinion. Although the Yiqu people have changed to a certain extent, they still have some relationship with Quanrong. If they join forces to cause chaos, they should not be underestimated."
