With the sales of glass products and daily necessities, Luoyang City once again gathered many merchants from the Han Dynasty and the West. In the past few years, the streets were empty, but now the streets are crowded with people, and there are many shops and hotels in the city, and every inch of land is valuable.
Liu Cong knew that in the future, Luoyang City would become the commercial and political center of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, the previous city size seemed a bit small and had to be expanded.
Following the current construction ideas of the city, a commercial area was built outside the city along the city wall. In addition to the imperial guards, other troops in the city established military camps outside the commercial area.
As soon as they heard about the expansion, all the big businessmen from the north and the south rushed to the Ministry of Works, willing to take on the task of expansion. When Luoyang City was being renovated, the three major families in Jingzhou were the main ones. They naturally received supreme honors and benefits. So in this expansion, everyone wants to participate and get a share of the pie.
Since it was expanding around the city outside the city, the expanded area was much larger than the original Luoyang City, and one or two families could not take over it. Therefore, after many negotiations between the Ministry of Industry and the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, Donghai Mijia, Yizhou The Fei family, Jingzhou Ma family, Kuai family, and Cai family jointly completed it. Of course, many small aristocratic families participated in small projects, and some large merchants contributed funds.
At the same time, the Yizhou Corps, under the command of Zhang Ren and Zhuge Liang, pacified the entire Nanzhong at lightning speed, moved all the barbarians out of the jungle, allocated land to them, mixed with the Han people, and learned Farming and weaving.
??The Yunnan Prefecture was set up in Dali, Zhang was appointed governor-general of military affairs, and Zhuge Liang was in charge of government affairs. His goals were directed at South Vietnam and other places. Of course, there will be no use of force in recent years, because most of the soldiers and horses in Yunnan Province are surrendered soldiers from the original Yizhou. After excluding the old and weak, there are not many soldiers and horses, and their combat power is not strong. They need to seize the time to recruit and train soldiers. .
After Zhang Xiu joined the Central Plains Corps, the strength of the Central Plains Corps also improved a lot. Cao Cao was newly defeated and retreated to Yecheng, unable to pose a threat to Yanzhou for the time being. Xuzhou is guarded by Liu Ye, Dong Zhao, Zhang He, Li Dian, Wenpin and others, so there is no chance for the time being.
Therefore, Liu Cong transferred both Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong back to Luoyang.
Since Zhuge Liang was very proficient in both government and military affairs, he was temporarily appointed as the minister of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel.
After Zhuge Liang returned to Luoyang, he gathered with old friends such as Pang Tong, Cui Zhouping, Shi Guangyuan, Ma Liang, Xiang Lang, etc., and had a hearty drink. Everyone was filled with emotion.
Over the years, the world's situation has changed too fast. The rise of Han King Liu Cong is unstoppable, and his personal situation has also undergone great changes.
On the second day after Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong arrived in Luoyang, Liu Cong summoned the two of them in his study, as well as Fazheng, Ma Liang, Zhong Yao and others.
After everyone had finished the ceremony, Zhuge Liang was attracted by a large map hanging in Liu Cong's study.
This map is a complete picture of the Han Dynasty. It not only clearly marks the counties of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, important counties, many mountains, rivers, and passes. In each pass, the enemy's garrison generals and the number of garrison troops are also marked. At the same time, the foreign ethnic groups and countries adjacent to the Han Dynasty are also marked, such as Goguryeo, Samhan, and Baekje outside Liaodong, the countries in the Western Regions west of Yumen Pass, Zhenzhou and the Japanese Kingdom in the East China Sea, Nanyue, the Maurya Dynasty in the south, etc. wait.
"No wonder my lord, who is invincible in every attack and invincible in every battle, has such a clear map of the world!" Zhuge Liang marveled. As long as he marched and deployed his troops and generals according to this map, how could he be invincible?
"Kong Ming, what kind of world is this? My lord's world is much bigger than this!" Pang Tong saw Zhuge Liang's surprised look and smiled happily. You know, there are not many times when you can see Zhuge Liang's expression!
"What? Is there another world besides this?" Zhuge Liang is well-read and proficient in hundreds of schools of thought. This map is already much larger than the world he knows.
"When Kong Ming came to Luoyang, did he meet some Western businessmen?" Liu Cong asked.
"I have seen some businessmen from the Western Regions, they are almost the same as us Han people, but some Western businessmen, their appearance" Zhuge Liang found it difficult to accept for a while, how could people's eyes be blue, how could their hair be so Is it yellow? Moreover, some of the skin is as white as snow, while others are as black as carbon, and the nose seems to be quite big, which is really incomprehensible.
"There is a great Qin in the west, and its territory is no smaller than that of our Han Dynasty, and there is Persia to the west of the Western Regions, which is very powerful. In addition, across a strait, there is an ancient empire called Egypt. Those glass products are the earliest It was sold to us by Western merchants from Egypt, but the ones we use now have been improved."
Liu Cong simply put the world¡¯sAfter giving a brief introduction, of course he knew that if he talked too much at this time, others would not be able to understand him at all.
"It's true that there is a heaven outside the sky!" Zhuge Liang sighed with emotion, and at the same time he admired his lord Liu Cong endlessly. In the past, he felt that he had misunderstood Liu Cong, but now he suddenly felt that he could not understand Liu Cong at all.
"My lord, Skynet sent information that Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei went to Liaodong. When they passed through Youzhou, Tian Chou met with Liu Bei, but Xu Yuanzhi did not go to see him." Fa Zheng said.
"Yuan Zhi Yuan Zhi is in Youzhou?" Zhuge Liang was surprised when he heard this.
"After Xu Yuanzhi was deceived by Cao Cao and returned, although he was under Cao Cao's command, he did not provide any advice to Cao Cao. At this time, there were changes in the foreign tribes in the north, so Cao Cao sent Xu Yuanzhi to assist Tian Chou, the governor of Youzhou. Xu Yuanzhi was sincere Since he is a big man, he will naturally not refuse, and he has been in Youzhou since then."
"No wonder there has been no news about Yuan Zhi for a long time." Zhuge Liang nodded silently.
"I also learned about Yuan Zhi from my lord. I sent him two letters, but Yuan Zhi didn't reply." Pang Tong said.
"Yuan Zhi values ????righteousness and cannot leave Cao Cao like this, so he did not reply. Liu Bei was passing through Youzhou this time and wanted to meet Yuan Zhi, but he was rejected by Yuan Zhi." Liu Cong also admired Xu Shu very much. Naturally, he I want to take it under my command, but I don't have the chance yet.
"My lord, Liu Bei has gone to Liaodong. I'm afraid there will be war in Liaodong!" Fazheng took out some information and continued, "Tian Chou has begun to gather troops in Yuyang. Apparently he is following Cao Cao's order and wants to take advantage of the situation. .¡±
"Liu Bei could have become an important minister of the country, but it was a pity that he was too ambitious and wanted to use weapons in the peaceful land. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were the best generals in the world and enemies of ten thousand people. They just followed Liu Bei and could not make any achievements in the end. It is a pity. "Liu Cong shook his head. Although he was not interested in Liu Bei, he was influenced by the thoughts of his previous life and had a good impression of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. However, he also knew that in this era, he could not use it for his own purposes. "Liaodong is too far away and there is nothing we can do." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
