Chapter 416 Baiyue Strategy
Professional matters should be left to professionals, especially a mature "Baiyue Nemesis" like He Qi.
After He Qi finished his meal, Liu Feng first told He Qi to take care of him tonight, and then took him and Lu Xun back to the study.
Afterwards, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tongyi, who had just returned, were recruited into the inner study.
On the inner wall of the inner study room, there are many giant maps hanging, two of which are the maps of Yuzhang and Kuaiji.
Liu Feng took He Qi to the map of Kuaiji, followed by Zhuge Liang, Lu Xun, and Pang Tong, while Xu Chu, Lu Meng, and Ling Tong stood at the outside.
"Gong Miao, can you take this place for me?"
Liu Feng's right hand spread out into a palm and hit Dongye's upper left hand hard.
This is a territory larger than the entire Wu County, but this territory only belongs to Dongye County in name, but is actually the territory of Baiyue, and the Baiyue organization here is much stronger higher.
The reason is very simple, because this place has not been under the jurisdiction of the government for a long time. The Han people and Baiyue people who spread here naturally merged to form the Baiyue Canal Head, which is similar to the powerful Han people.
These Baiyue Canal Heads not only have the blood of Baiyue, but are also descendants of the Han nationality, and are of Han-Vietnamese mixed ancestry.
Compared with the general Baiyue Canal head, they are more receptive to Han culture, and their degree of Chineseization is obviously higher. They also have a large number of Han people under their command, have mastered Han farming techniques, and have a large amount of production resources. For this reason, when Sun Ce died of illness and Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, the powerful people at the head of the canal here immediately rebelled and pulled out 100,000 people in one breath.
In the land of Dongye, four hundred years after the First Emperor went south to conquer Baiyue, there has always been only one county of Dongye, and the other territories are Han territories, which is actually the resurrection of Baiyue.
In the original time and space, it was Sun Ce who instructed He Qi to establish Dongye County and establish Jian'an, Nanping and Hanxing counties. But Liu Feng, who had opened his eyes of heaven, knew very clearly that after Sun Ce died, it would be the time for these mixed-race heroes to have a carnival.
Although I will definitely not be as frivolous and adventurous as Sun Ce, let alone die two years later like Sun Ce. But this group of mixed-blood tycoons are full of wildness, and they have not been severely beaten by Liu Feng. They will definitely be a disaster in the future.
In this case, why not let He Qi teach these people a lesson directly and put the establishment of Nanhuiji County on the agenda?
As for whether He Qi can do it?
Liu Feng had almost no suspicion at all. Historically, He Qi, with more than a thousand troops of his own, plus five thousand county soldiers given by Sun Quan, uprooted all these people.
The resources and support he will provide to He Qi will only be more. He believes that He Qi will definitely give him a perfect answer.
Sure enough, after hearing Liu Feng's words, He Qi's eyes seemed to have flames burning, and he wanted to confirm something with a hoarse voice: "My lord, do you want...?"
Liu Feng smiled indifferently and drew a circle around the entire Dongye area with his palm, accounting for almost one-third of Kuaiji County.
"Gongmiao, I want to establish a new county in Kuaiji, named Nanping County. The headquarters will be temporarily in Dongye. After Nanping County is built, it will be moved to Nanping County."
Liu Feng clicked on the map where Nanping is located, which is roughly where Nanping City in Fujian will be located in the future.
Liu Feng once considered Dongye County. After all, it is the only county in the south of Kuaiji all year round. It has a large population, a developed economy, prosperous maritime trade, and many merchant ships. These are the advantages of Dongye County.
But in the end Liu Feng still vetoed Dongye and made it the county government temporarily.
There are three core reasons. First, there are many typhoons in Fujian. The threat of typhoon in Dongye is too great. Once the county is destroyed, the entire southern part of Kuaiji will be in chaos.
Secondly, Dongye’s location is too remote. It is a port city and is close to the sea. It cannot radiate Baiyue among the mountains, while Nanping can radiate the surrounding mountainous areas very well and continue to Chineseize Baiyue. people and expand their influence and productivity.
Thirdly, the location of Nanping is great, as it is the main point where three rivers converge and flow to the sea.
To the southwest of Nanping, Jiulong River passes through Yongan County and turns northwest to Nanping County.
To the northwest of Nanping, Futun River turns from Guangze County to the southeast, passing through Shunchang County to Nanping County and joining Jiulong River.
To the northeast of Nanping, there is Jianxi River, which merges with many streams. The water flows from north to south through Jianyang County and Jian'an County to outside Nanping, where it joins Futun River and Jiulong River. At this point, the Minjiang River was born. It flows along the Minjiang River toward the southeast and flows into the sea at Dongye City.
After the city of Nanping is built, it will be connected by water and land to the six counties of Yong'an County, Guangze County, Shunchang County, Jianyang County, Jian'an County and Dongye County.
In addition, Pucheng County can also merge with Nanpu Creek and Jianxi, while Jianning County can merge with Jinxi and Futun Creek via Jiangle County.
Therefore, Nanping can reach in all directions, connecting the nine surrounding counties by land and water, making it a well-deserved transportation hub.
This is why Liu Feng finalized Nanping.
Different from the Sun family in the original time and space, Liu Feng had more resources, more supplies, and more powerful troops. He gave He Qi greater support, so the rewards he expected were more generous.
Liu Feng divided Jian'an County into a large number of counties in one go. In addition to Jian'an, Pucheng, and Nanping counties, he also established Yong'an County, Guangze County (Shaowu County), Jiangle County, and Shunchang County. County, Jianyang County, Jianning County, Fu'an County, Dong'an County, Zhangping County, a total of twelve counties.
Pucheng County is Hanxing County, Guangze County is Shaowu County, Dong'an County, and Zhangping County is Zhangzhou.
Liu Feng did not play with the name of later generations, but chose Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, and used it according to the old name today.
Twelve prefectures, covering more than one-third of the territory of Kuaiji, this is a real new large prefecture. Just hearing about it made He Qi and others' hearts swell. Especially He Qi, who thought of something because of Liu Feng's words, suddenly felt his mouth and tongue were dry and his tongue was dry.
Sure enough, Liu Feng's next words made He Qi so excited that he was willing to die on the spot in front of Liu Feng.
"Gong Miao, I would like to ask you to be the governor of the new county, the governor of Nanping County, and the captain of the south. You can build 2,000 county troops. In addition, I will send Gao Shun to command 20,000 troops. Go to Nanping by sea."
Liu Feng looked back at He Qi and said solemnly: "Gong Miao, I only have one request from you, give me. I will completely conquer Baiyue in the county and make them obey the orders of my general Zuo. Can you do it?"
"Qi is willing to go through fire and water for the general's ambition."
Congratulations! Qi immediately bowed down, kowtowed to Liu Feng and said: "If he cannot become a general, Qi is willing to die to atone for his sins!"
At this moment, He Qi's loyalty to Liu Feng almost exploded, with tears in his eyes and a voice like weeping blood.
No wonder He Qi was so excited. Liu Feng gave him a name, a position, soldiers, horses, money and food. It can even be said that he set up a county specifically for him.
Before meeting Liu Feng, He Qi moved to various county magistrates in Kuaiji County, like a fire captain, fighting rebellions everywhere.
Although the merits are achieved, the credit is not paid.
Nearly forty years old, he is still holding an official position of 600 shi, and he has not even rebelled. Wang Lang and other high-ranking officials in the county cannot remember him, and it can be said that they are heartbroken. Now following Liu Feng, in less than two years, he was promoted to the position of county governor of two thousand stones, and it was a new county specially established for him. What's even more exaggerated is that he also served as the southern captain, which can be said to be a master of military and political affairs. He also specially transferred Gao Shun's troops to Nanping County to help him calm Shanyue, which can be said to be the ultimate trust and favor.
Seeing these comparisons, it is not surprising that He Qi was willing to die for Liu Feng.
In fact, in the study at this time, not to mention He Qi, even the two young men Lu Meng and Ling Tong were watching with excitement. If there was not a trace of clarity in their heads, they would have been moaning along with He Qi. called. Even Xu Chu was envious in his heart, but he knew his position very well, and all he thought about was envy.
Zhuge Liang and the others were surprised by He Qi's honor, but they were more thinking about He Qi's talents.
Zhuge Liang has been with Liu Feng for the longest time, and he clearly knows how vicious Liu Feng's vision is.
Not to mention anything else, he was extremely amazed by the talents of his current colleagues Lu Xun and Pang Tong. Not to mention that Liu Feng also collected a large number of various books, which were completely open to Zhuge Liang, Lu Xun and Pang Tong, allowing them to borrow them, and he also provided guidance and guidance.
These instructions are all good words and wisdom, and Zhuge Liang and the other three were surprised and delighted.
Originally, Zhuge and the others never believed that talents were given by heaven, but after getting along with Liu Feng, this understanding quietly began to collapse.
Liu Feng continued to say to He Qi: "Gong Miao, I have separated Gan County from Yuzhang County, with Yu Zhongxiang as the county governor, and Zhou Gongjin as the prefect of Poyang County. If you have a big plan around Ru County, you can ask Zhou Gongjin and Yu Zhongxiang to discuss it together. You only need to report it to the Ministry of War. But."
He Qi was overjoyed when he heard this. You must know that Zhou Yu also has an army of 20,000 people. In this way, he can personally command 22,000 people, and there is a chance to get another one. With the support of 20,000 troops, He Qi felt that this happiness came too quickly and too violently.
Liu Feng seemed to have remembered something and asked He Qi: "By the way, what did you think of Shang Sheng, Zhang Ya, Zhan Qiang, He Xiong and others you mentioned earlier? Can they be used?"
Shang Shengnai He is the official Dongye County Magistrate. In fact, the registered population of Dongye County has long exceeded 10,000 households. But who made Dongye the only county in the south of Kuaiji? Naturally, it will be suppressed. The Kuaiji County is only willing to give it 600 shi. The title of county magistrate.
As for Zhang Ya, Zhan Qiang, and He Xiong, they are all powerful local leaders in Dongye. Among them, Zhang Ya and He Xiong are still related as sons-in-law, but they are not harmonious with each other.
In the original time and space, these people were all defeated by He Qi. Shang Sheng was frightened by He Qi's letter and wanted to surrender. Zhang Ya and He Xiong were led by He Qi to lead a small number of troops plus Shan Yue. The alliance was defeated, but Zhan Qiang was so frightened that he surrendered after the defeat of Zhang Ya and He Xiong. And this is just He Qi's small test in southern Kuaiji.
He Qi hurriedly replied: "Shang Sheng is quite talented and has a good reputation among the people. Zhang Ya and He Xiong are not as brave as ordinary men, so there is nothing to worry about. Zhan Qiang's political ability is acceptable, but he is resourceful. Not enough, not to mention courageous. ”
"Good."
Liu Feng then said: "In that case, these people will be left to your disposal."
He Qi bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord."
< br>After Liu Feng thought for a while, he warned again: "Gong Miao, I have one more thing to ask you when you go south this time."
He Qi did not dare to be careless and waited patiently.
Liu Feng smiled and patted the other party's arm: "You don't have to be so formal. We are also discussing. As a frontline general, your military aircraft is changing rapidly. You must not be entrenched."
Liu Feng's words not only made He Qi Falling into deep thought, even Zhuge Liang and others were moved by these words and felt that this was reasonable.
"This time I go south, I have twelve characters to give to the male seedlings."
Liu Feng then said: "The priority is to attack the heart, to win the people, and to seize the land is the bottom."
After He Qi recited it silently, he suddenly became enlightened. He felt that the problem that he had been unable to figure out before was like a layer of gauze, suddenly became enlightened at this moment.
Liu Feng was very happy when he saw He Qi's sudden look, and continued: "In the mountains, the Baiyue people are multiplying endlessly. Even if the army enters the mountains, it is difficult to get rid of them all. Therefore, only by gathering the hearts of the Baiyue people can we win a lifetime." "
After a pause, Liu Feng continued: "I have prepared fifty thousand pieces of cloth, one hundred thousand stones of coarse salt, and two hundred thousand for you. Stone, grain and grass are for you to win over the people of Baiyue. If Gongmiao can build a new county and control Baiyue within two years, I will remember Gongmiao for his great achievements."
"Wonderful! "
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but agree: "The best thing to do is attack the heart. This is a golden saying."
"What Kong Ming said is true."
Pang Tong stroked his goatee and nodded repeatedly: "It is difficult to eliminate Baiyue's battle against the mountains. The only way to achieve full success is to attack the heart."
Lu Xun's face was white and beardless, and he added next to it: " My lord, do you want to add another naval force to Prefect He?"
Liu Feng woke up and smiled and said: "We have been prepared, but we just just did it? I forgot to mention it."
"Fortunately, Boyan filled in the missing pieces."
Liu Feng praised Lu Xun and then said to He Qi: "I have ordered Xuezhou to be the Nanping River. The military commander, Zheng Bao, is the deputy commander, each with 4,000 troops and 350 large and small warships, rushing south to Dongye to provide support for you."
As mentioned before, Nanping is a waterway transportation hub, extending in all directions, but if there is no naval cover, then it is not connected in all directions, but besieged on all sides.
Xuezhou is a pirate and has a navy, so he is the chief governor. Zheng Bao only has inland river experience and is not as experienced and comprehensive as Xuezhou, so naturally he can only be the deputy governor.
However, even if this is the case, these are all high-ranking officials with two thousand stones. Let alone the Heping years, even in the last years of Emperor Ling, with the background of Xuezhou and Zheng Bao, they will never be able to be worthy of it. Such an official position.
Therefore, Xue Zhou and Zheng Bao were both quite satisfied and quite obedient to handing over their excess tribesmen without much resistance.
After all, their tribe at this time was far from as large as it had been in history.
In the third year of Jian'an (198 AD) in the original time and space, the tribes of Zheng Bao and Xue Zhou were as high as 10,000 households, with as many as 40,000 to 50,000 young men. People's ambitions will inevitably increase with the huge power. Increase.
At present, the two of them together are just over 10,000 people, so naturally they are quite different.
He Qi could no longer say anything touching when Liu Feng said that there would be support from eight thousand navy troops.
At this point, there is nothing else He Qi can say but to try his best.
That night, Liu Feng held a banquet in honor of Qi, and both the host and the guest were happy.
