Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 969 Entering the New Capital 1
Jiangdong, outside the new capital city, those Jiangdong soldiers and representatives of aristocratic families who were unwilling to escape with Sun Ce were kneeling at the gate of the city to welcome the arrival of Gongsun Xu. The Sun family's rule in Jiangdong was over. Next, there will be a new In the era of the Han Dynasty, the Han army entered Jiangdong with an irresistible force, and the aristocratic families who have occupied this place for many years can only tremble now.

"Da da da,,,,,," a group of cavalry appeared in everyone's view, the leader was very young and handsome, with a natural arrogance overflowing on his face, as if he was showing off to these losers.

"Even if it's Bo Fu, I'm afraid it's hard to overwhelm this general." In the crowd, Sun Jing looked at the young general and sighed: "Oh, there are so many talents under King Zhao's command."

"Your Highness is coming soon, and you are ready to meet him." After speaking to the crowd, Ma Chao turned to salute Zhang Liao and Ji Ling, "Your Highness has orders. The two generals have worked hard. Now follow me to meet Your Highness."

Zhang Liao and Zhang Liao were overjoyed. This meeting and greeting must have different meanings. The two of them made a lot of efforts in the process of attacking Jiangdong, especially in the battle to win Xindu. On the contrary, when the other generals went to round up Sun Ce and compete for the unworldly credit, the two of them led the troops to defeat the rest of the Jiangdong army, stabilize the situation in the new capital, seal the treasury, and count the results of the battle. Maintaining discipline in the city, it can be said that the Xinducheng can be pacified so quickly has a lot to do with their efforts.

But now, Gongsun Xu wanted to meet them, which meant nothing more than obvious. He wanted to reward or comfort them in front of the soldiers of the three armies. As surrendered generals, Zhang Liao and Ji Ling have always behaved well. There are too many, there are quite a few who are on the same level as them, and there are many who are better than them. If they don't lower their stance, I'm afraid it won't even be their turn to pacify Jiangdong.

"The last general has seen His Highness..." In front of the army formation, Zhang Liao and Ji Ling got off their horses and knelt on the ground and said, "Welcome Your Highness to take over Jiangdong."

"Get up." Gongsun Xu nodded and said: "You have done a good job, I am very satisfied, yes, this time Xin was able to be suppressed so quickly, you have contributed a lot, I have asked His Majesty to play, and I want to be promoted to the third rank It is not difficult to level up, and I will tell you the details later, now, take me to see those elders in Xindu."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Zhang Liao stood up and got on his horse to lead the way for Gongsun Xu. They were promoted to three ranks. This is not a simple promotion. , can rise so fast, they can be regarded as odd numbers.

"Husband, why do you have to make such a big fuss when you enter Xindu?" On the horse, Zhen Dao stared at Gongsun Xu with doubts and asked, "Is Xindu different from other places? Didn't the two generals already win the battle?" Did you enter the new capital? Also, when did you have a tradition of meeting the local elders?"

"Hehe, silly girl, this new capital must be a little different." A long time ago, Gongsun Xu implemented reforms in his own army, and the results have been remarkable over the years. Originally, according to the habits of this era, it is impossible for women to Those who appeared in the army, but with Gongsun Xu's reforms, women can not only appear in the army, but also serve in the army. Huang Diewu and Lu Qiling each commanded [-] elite female battalion soldiers. There are not many, so Gongsun Xu has always brought the three wives with him, which can relieve the loneliness of the army. Come, this can be regarded as meeting the requirements of the three wives to travel around.

"Before our army attacked Jiangdong, it was actually divided into three parts." Gongsun Xu explained: "Sun Ce, Sun Quan, and the local barbarians. Sun Ce led the army to retreat, and most of his troops were loyal to him. Therefore, those tribes took the initiative to follow him to evacuate. The land he left behind was already considered unclaimed land, and there were no powers from aristocratic families. After our army attacked, it was just to take over the land. Dealing with local aristocratic families.

This new capital is Sun Quan's power center. This area used to be Sun Quan's territory. Most of the aristocratic families here supported Sun Quan. When Wen Yuan and the others raided the new capital, Sun Quan had no time to arrange it, and could not arrange anything at all. Those aristocratic families could not be said to be devoted to him, let alone go to exile with him under such circumstances. Therefore, in desperation, Sun Quan led a small number of personal guards to break through and escape. Those century-old families who had supported him all They all stayed.

These centuries-old families are not simple. Any one of them may be a family that has taken root in this land for hundreds of years. After our army enters this place, we must deal with them. Now they are worried about whether their interests will be damaged. Can my own life be saved? Therefore, there must be some people who are panicking. If I don't come forward to appease them, these people will definitely have other thoughts, and it will be troublesome if they do something that is not good for our army. up. "

"Oh, so that's how it is." Zhen Dao nodded and replied, "So, these people still have to meet. By the way, my husband, didn't you say that there are three forces, and there is one more?"

"There is another one, hehe, that is the barbarians living in the uncivilized areas of Jiangdong." Gongsun Xu snorted coldly: "The land of Jiangdong is also fertile, but due to the small population, it has not been developed much for so many years. In addition, the Shanyue barbarians often plundered, which made the development of Jiangdong relatively slow. If you want to manage Jiangdong well, you must solve the problem of the Shanyue barbarians.

When Sun Ce took Jiangdong, he had no time to deal with this problem. After he stabilized a little later, he had to deal with the enemies north of the Yangtze River. In addition, the mountains were more difficult to march, and the geographical conditions were complicated. Hills, ravines, miasma, etc. became Jiangdong's elite This made the Shanyue barbarians unable to calm down.

Now that our army has taken down Jiangdong, we must solve this problem. I have already started preparations. Whether it is military or economic, I will find a way to make Shanyue work for me. "

"Then are you going to send troops to fight again?" Zhen Dao looked at Gongsun Xu and asked, "I heard that these barbarians are not civilized, and it seems that their lives will be ruined again."

"Hahahaha, you underestimate your husband and me too much." Gongsun Xu laughed and said, "For Shanyue, military means are only auxiliary. If I can solve the difficulties of the Shanyue barbarians in their hungry lives, let them live a better life." In terms of life, maybe our soldiers don’t have to go to war anymore. For so many years, Shanyue has always been a hidden danger in Jiangdong. The main reason is that the local rulers believe that they are enemies and opponents, and they just want to drive them out. Hehe, This kind of thinking is wrong, if they also live in this land, then they are my fellow citizens, how can they treat them differently..."
