The Three Kingdoms of Farming and War began with the incorporation of the Baiyue

Jiangling City, Jingzhou.

The eldest prince Jin Lin encountered difficulties in controlling the water here.

The cause of the incident was the trouble left behind by the current emperor Jin Mao's governance of Yunmeng Lake.

It was originally a good thing to increase the arable land area, but over the years, many dams in Yunmengze have fallen into disrepair.

The higher-ups don’t care about this matter, and the people below want to fix it but don’t have the power.

Things got delayed like this.

"Brother," Jin Lin said to Nanyang King Liu Xie, "Brother, the area around Jiangling City is now flooded every rainy season because the Yunmeng Lake dam is in disrepair. The people are suffering terribly, their farmland is flooded, their houses are ruined, and their livelihoods are unsustainable. Although I am willing to rectify the situation, the treasury is empty, and local officials are shirking their responsibilities, so the progress is slow, which is really frustrating."

Liu Xie frowned upon hearing this, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Water control is related to people's livelihood and the country, and cannot be underestimated. Since the court does not support it for the time being, we must find another way. Jiangling is located at a strategic location. If we can effectively control the flood, it will not only solve the current emergency, but also lay the foundation for future development."

"Brother, what you said is absolutely right, but where will the funds and manpower come from?" Jin Lin looked embarrassed.

Liu Xie's eyes sparkled as he slowly said, "In terms of funding, we may try to raise funds from wealthy merchants and promise them future benefits, such as tax cuts, priority trade rights, etc. As for manpower, we can issue a notice to recruit warriors from all over the country and promise them generous rewards. At the same time, we can mobilize the people to participate. After all, this is also to protect their own homes. Furthermore, we can write to our father, explain the interests involved, and strive for some support. Even if it is not much, it is also a help."

After hearing this, Jin Lin's eyes lit up and he said repeatedly, "Brother, this method is very good. It not only solves the current dilemma, but also takes into account the long-term plan. I will start preparing now."

So, after the two discussed the details, Jin Lin left the Nanyang Palace full of hope, and secretly made up his mind to overcome all difficulties and give the people of Jiangling a peaceful home.

Jin Lin first started recruiting warriors. He knew that this matter was related to the people's hearts and morale, so he personally drafted the notice, which was sincere and emphasized the urgency of defending the homeland. He also promised generous rewards and future glory, ensuring that the notice could inspire people and be sincere. Within a few days after the notice was posted, many warriors responded, including those with strong martial arts skills and young talents who cared about their country. Jin Lin interviewed them one by one, selected the best, and personally arranged food and accommodation for them. Training was also carried out simultaneously. The whole Jiangling City was full of hope because of this new force.

At the same time, Jin Lin carefully prepared a memorial, detailing the crisis facing Jiangling, the measures taken to deal with it, and the support requested. He carefully selected his words, striving for precision and sincerity, hoping to move his father's heart. Before submitting the memorial, he also visited several respected old officials in the court and asked them to speak out for Jiangling's plight. These old officials appreciated his sincerity and determination and promised to support him at the court meeting.

While waiting for his father's reply, Jin Lin was not idle. He went deep into the people, understood their sufferings, personally participated in repairing the city walls and strengthening fortifications, and won the trust and love of the people with practical actions. He also organized a patrol team composed of people who patrolled inside and outside the city at night, effectively curbing the intrusion of thieves and enemy troops, and greatly improving the public security in Jiangling.

Finally, the emperor's reply came. Although he did not fully meet Jin Lin's request, he agreed to send a small team to assist in the defense and reduced some taxes to show his support. The news quickly spread in Jiangling City, and the morale of the army and the people was greatly boosted. Jin Lin took this opportunity to mobilize the whole city and held a grand oath-taking meeting, swearing to live and die with Jiangling and to protect every inch of peace on this land.

With the effective implementation of various measures, Jiangling gradually emerged from the crisis and people's lives gradually returned to normal. Jin Lin's efforts and wisdom not only won the respect and love of the people of Jiangling, but also laid a solid foundation for his future reputation in the court.

During this period, Jin Lin was not satisfied with the status quo. He knew that long-term peace needed stronger defense and a prosperous economy as support. Therefore, he set about strengthening the fortifications of Jiangling City. He not only repaired the city walls, but also added many outposts and beacon towers to ensure that potential threats could be discovered and responded to in the first place. At the same time, he encouraged farming and introduced advanced irrigation technology, which greatly increased farmland production and effectively alleviated the problem of food shortage caused by war.

In order to further promote the development of Jiangling, Jin Lim also advocated commercial activities and opened up many trade routes to surrounding areas, attracting many vendors to trade. Jiangling gradually became a prosperous commercial center. He also set up schools to encourage children to read and learn to read, cultivate future talents, and sow the seeds of hope for the long-term development of Jiangling.

As Gangneung grew stronger, Jin Lim's name gradually became a legend inside and outside the court. His ideas and practices in governing the country not only won the heartfelt support of the people, but also attracted the attention of important officials in the court. Many people began to re-examine the talents and vision of this young general. Jin Lim himself always remained humble and pragmatic. He knew that the real test was still ahead, and he was ready to meet the challenges of the future at any time and continue to work tirelessly to protect this land and his people. Under Jin Lim's leadership, Gangneung not only prospered economically, but also flourished culturally. The cultural revival policy he advocated enabled the preservation of ancient cultural heritage and the emergence of new art forms. Poets used their pens as swords to sing the glory of this land and the diligence of the people; painters used ink as a medium to depict the beauty of Gangneung's mountains and rivers and the prosperity of the market. These cultural achievements not only enriched the spiritual life of Gangneung people, but also became a bridge connecting the past and the future, making Gangneung's cultural heritage more profound.

At the same time, Jin Lin also paid attention to the establishment of diplomatic relations. He sent envoys to neighboring countries to seek cooperation and exchanges with a peaceful and friendly attitude. These efforts not only brought valuable resources and technology to Jiangling, but also expanded its influence in the surrounding areas, laying a solid foundation for future peaceful development. Jin Lin knew that the strength of a country is not only reflected in its economy and military, but also in its cultural inclusiveness and diplomatic wisdom.

Under his governance, Gangneung gradually became a model of vibrant and harmonious coexistence. No matter nobles or commoners, they could find their own place in this land and contribute to the prosperity of Gangneung. The story of Jin Lin has also become a good story to inspire future generations, making people believe that as long as they have firm beliefs and unremitting efforts, they can create their own glory.

In addition, Jin Lim actively promoted cultural exchange and integration, encouraging domestic and foreign scholars and artists to exchange ideas and display their talents in Gangneung. He knew that cultural exchange could not only enhance the understanding and friendship between people of different countries, but also stimulate innovative thinking and promote the overall progress of society. Therefore, people of different skin colors and languages ​​can often be seen gathering together on the streets of Gangneung to celebrate festivals and share knowledge.

In terms of education, Jinlin implemented a series of reforms and established a number of public schools to ensure that every child has the opportunity to receive education. These schools not only teach traditional knowledge, but also introduce modern science and technology and humanistic ideas, aiming to cultivate a new generation of talents with both profound cultural heritage and international vision. With the popularization of education and the cultivation of talents, Jiangling's social outlook has been completely renewed, people's minds have become more open, and their sense of innovation has been strengthened.

In diplomacy, Jin Lin used his superb wisdom to skillfully balance the interests of all parties, which made Jiangling win respect and praise on the international stage. He advocated multilateral cooperation, actively participated in international affairs, and contributed to resolving regional disputes and promoting common development. Jiangling's diplomatic achievements not only enhanced the country's international status, but also made important contributions to peace and stability in the surrounding areas.

Under the leadership of Jin Lim, Gangneung embarked on a unique path of peaceful development. This path not only focused on economic prosperity, but also emphasized cultural tolerance and diplomatic wisdom, and painted a beautiful blueprint for the future of Gangneung and the entire region. Jin Lim's governance philosophy and practice have become a model for future generations to learn from, inspiring people to continuously explore a development path that suits their own national conditions and jointly create a better future.

Jin Lin knows that the strength of a country is not only reflected in its economic and military strength, but also in its ability to become a bridge connecting different civilizations and promoting global cooperation. Therefore, under his promotion, Jiangling not only strengthened cooperation with traditional friendly countries, but also actively explored partnerships with emerging economies to jointly respond to global challenges such as climate change and public health security. Jiangling's international cooperation projects are flourishing everywhere, from infrastructure construction to education and cultural exchanges, each of which aims to enhance mutual understanding and promote common prosperity.

At the same time, the green development strategy advocated by Jinlin has led Jiangling to become a pioneer in the field of environmental protection. Jiangling is committed to promoting clean energy, implementing strict environmental protection laws and regulations, and protecting natural heritage. These measures have not only improved the country's ecological environment, but also provided valuable experience for the construction of global ecological civilization. Jiangling's green development model has gradually attracted attention and emulation from all over the world, becoming an important force in promoting global sustainable development.

In addition, Jin Lin also attached great importance to education and scientific and technological innovation, believing that they are the cornerstones of the country's long-term development. He promoted the establishment of a series of international education cooperation projects, encouraging Jiangling youth to go abroad and exchange and learn with peers from all over the world. At the same time, he also opened the door to welcome foreign scholars and students to Jiangling for further studies and jointly explore the infinite possibilities of science and technology. This open and inclusive education policy has greatly enriched the cultural connotation of Jiangling and also won Jiangling an advantage in the global scientific and technological competition.

In short, under the leadership of Jin Lin, Jiangling has not only achieved its own leapfrog development with its unique path of peaceful development, positive attitude towards international cooperation, forward-looking green development strategy and emphasis on education and technology, but also made indispensable contributions to building a community with a shared future for mankind, becoming a recognized model and benchmark by the international community.

Jiangling has promoted the collision and integration of global wisdom and creativity by building a diversified communication platform, providing an inexhaustible source of power for scientific and technological innovation. It has not only achieved remarkable results in cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence, quantum communications, and renewable energy, but also actively promoted the application of these technologies in improving people's livelihood and protecting the environment, demonstrating the positive practice of science and technology for good. At the same time, Jiangling focuses on cultivating a team of talents with international vision and innovative ability, and encourages the younger generation to devote themselves to scientific research and technological innovation through the establishment of scholarships and international exchange programs, so as to reserve strength for future sustainable development.

On the international stage, Jiangling frequently appears in various high-end science and technology forums and international exhibitions to share its development experience and advocate the concept of open cooperation and mutually beneficial scientific and technological cooperation, which effectively enhances the international community's recognition and support for its development model. In addition, Jiangling also actively participates in global governance, proposes solutions to global challenges such as climate change, public health, and the digital divide, and demonstrates the responsibility of a responsible major country.

To sum up, every step of Jiangling's development profoundly reflects the accurate grasp of the pulse of the times and the deep concern for the common future of mankind. It is not only the rise of a city, but also a vivid portrayal of global win-win cooperation and common development.

On this basis, Jiangling has further expanded the scope of international cooperation and established long-term and stable partnerships with many international organizations and countries to jointly promote scientific and technological innovation projects and promote technology transfer and industrial upgrading. By establishing an international innovation cooperation platform, Jiangling has attracted top talents and scientific research institutions from around the world, provided local companies with opportunities to connect with the international community, and accelerated the gathering and development of high-tech industries. At the same time, Jiangling focuses on sustainable development, vigorously promotes the application of green energy, implements energy-saving and emission-reduction measures, and contributes valuable practical experience to the global response to environmental crises.

Jiangling is also committed to educational exchanges and cooperation. By establishing international schools and academic exchange centers, it has promoted knowledge sharing and talent cultivation in different cultural backgrounds, laying a solid foundation for building a community with a shared future for mankind. These efforts have not only enhanced Jiangling's international influence, but also set a new model of openness, inclusiveness, cooperation and win-win for global cities, proving that in the era of globalization, working together to create prosperity is the only correct path.

In addition, Jiangling has also taken solid steps in the construction of smart cities, using cutting-edge technologies such as big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence to optimize urban management and improve the efficiency of public services, which has significantly improved the quality of life of residents.
