After all, there was no one on the island, and it was only about ten miles in radius. However, the fruits growing on it tasted good, so I tasted them and picked some back.
After staying in Panyu for five days, we took a boat to go west.
After passing the place of Sihui, take a boat and merge into Lishui of Xijiang River.
As Qian Hong said, compared with Panyu and continuing westward, everything became more difficult again.
The terrain has become more complicated, there are more mountains, rivers of different thicknesses are crisscrossing each other, and the number of people has decreased.
Leaving Lishui, we walked along the main road opened by soldiers.
There are no counties here yet. All the information is obtained from the local garrison and the Baiyue tribe. There are almost no stops along the way.
Guo Deqing.
Passing Guiping.
…
Following Zhao Tuo's southward route to the main route of the Western Expedition, he left about a thousand soldiers at every good place to guard it and stabilize the rear.
Either build important roads, or suppress Baiyue.
After all, the Qin army occupied everything, and the rear was stable, and... along the way, we also saw a fleet of merchants.
Tsk tsk.
As expected, it was too late to do so without any benefit. Now that the South China Sea had just been settled, a group of merchants came to explore the way. They were really anxious.
Then, Yi Chusan admired those merchants.
The future development of Jiangnan will be inseparable from them.
Pass Wuxuan!
Stay in China!
…
The terrain is still very complex.
"Sir, if the Jiangnan counties really want to expand, there will always be a sequence."
"Lujiang, Zhangjun, Kuaiji, and the South China Sea can be ranked first."
"The rest of the land can only wait until later."
Bai Qianhong sighed deeply.
In fact, after leaving the land of the South China Sea, part-time jobs in the areas I visited were more complicated than those in Ba County and Qianzhong County, although there were also many excellent conditions.
However, it was limited by geographical advantages. There were very few acres of land, and there were not many suitable for building cities.
If you really have to put in too much effort, it's not suitable.
"That's how it should be."
"You can divide the expansion of Jiangnan counties into the first decade and the second decade."
"In the first ten years, great efforts will be placed on the counties you mentioned."
"In the second decade, the counties that are pioneering will cooperate with the improvement of Chidao and key roads to drive the expansion of other counties."
"In this way, we can work together."
Zhou Qing looked at Bai Qianhong and praised him.
The expansion power of the Jiangnan counties is certain, and it is impossible for it to fall evenly on every piece of land. Such consequences will only lead to the failure of the entire Jiangnan to develop.
We can only start by taking the land bordering seas, rivers, and fertile acres as our guide, and then develop slowly.
That is also the experience of the passage of time.
"Qianhong is clear!"
Bai Qianhong gave a gift.
After traveling west from Panyu for more than half a month, we finally approached the land of Dian Kingdom.
News also came from the Dian Kingdom ahead. The King of Dian was defeated and surrendered directly. Tu Ju was taking over the entire Dian Kingdom, and Zhao Tuo came to greet him.
Step into Beipanjiang!
"Zhao Tuo has met the Marquis of Wuzhen County!"
"Miss Bai!"
The silver-armored young general, leading his troops, looked at the approaching Wuzhen Junhou and others at the main road and bowed deeply.
"Zhao Tuo."
"But your skin tone is much darker."
Looking at Zhao Tuo in front of him.
Zhou Qing suddenly smiled and said.
This little guy back then was now able to lead an army by himself.
At this moment, he is wearing silver heavy armor and holding a silver spear, but... his skin color is much darker, and the contrast is quite obvious.
"The prince!"
Zhao Tuo stood up, bowed again, and smiled, showing his white teeth.
"The battle south was fought well."
Bai Qianhong also smiled.
This child... I also watched him grow up.
"Miss Bai."
"Uncle, are they all okay?"
Zhao Tuo held a spear in his hand, looked at Bai Qianhong, and asked softly.
“Everything is fine.”
"You lived up to their expectations of you."
"You have to do better next time."
Bai Qianhong nodded. The Zhuang family is doing well now. They have their own caravan and are now rooted in the south of the Yangtze River. They had to plan in the early years and now it is useful.
"yes!"
Zhao Tuo bowed deeply again.
"How are things going in Dian?"
Along the westbound main road, Zhou Qing walked slowly.
"Junhou."
"We only fought a battle with the Dian Kingdom, but the other party was defeated and surrendered directly."
"General Tu Ju is gathering everything. I am responsible for handling affairs between the Dian Kingdom and the South China Sea."
Zhao Tuo responded skillfully.
Prince!
Lord Wuzhen!
I really didn't expect that the prince would have such an identity. Of course, having that extra level of status would not bring much glory to the prince.
The previous titles of the princes and princes have also been displayed.
The prince valued him, promoted him, and allowed him to lead troops to attack the battlefield early. He benefited a lot. Next... he indeed still has a lot to do.
Not everyone in the National Protectorate Academy has a language, and soldiers who don’t want to become generals are not good soldiers.
Now he is just the commander-in-chief of the army, and his position in the army is not impressive. If he takes a step forward, he will still have the position of commander-in-chief.
"What's the environment like in the land of Dian?"
Zhou Qing asked again.
In the long river of time, the Dian Kingdom belongs to the south of Caiyun.
It is a good place. I don’t know how the Dian Kingdom will expand it. I hope it has some foundation.
"The prince!"
"The Dian Kingdom has many mountains and rivers, and not many acres of land. Even if the Qin Dynasty moves it southward, it will be difficult to make it rich quickly."
Zhao Tuo gave a word.
"Most of the terrain in Jiangnan is like this."
"I will be in charge of the counties south of the Yangtze River, and this place will also be under my control."
"Although it is difficult... we still need to become rich."
"Every place has its own uniqueness."
Zhao Tuo's response was expected.
The land of Yunnan is far away from the Central Plains and the south of the Yangtze River. Even if we want to make it rich, it will be the last turn.
"Is the main road accessible?"
Zhou Qing pointed to this important road, which was more than three feet wide.
"Direct access to the Dian Kingdom Administrative Office."
Zhao Tuo responded.
"Let's go and have a look at Dian Kingdom. After all, I have to be well aware of the counties in the south of the Yangtze River."
Turning around, the group of people rushed towards the land of Dian Kingdom.
Dian Kingdom!
Nothing to see.
The army Zhuang Qi brought into the Dian region not only failed to assimilate the Baiyue tribe, but was almost assimilated himself.
Elegance and etiquette are not shown, but tend to be barbaric.
After staying in the land of Dian for about seven days, he was ready to return.
The return journey is faster.
After passing Qujing, Panxian... and other places, take a boat to the north and enter the Wuling Canal.
That's where Jiangnan and Lingnan meet.
Zheng Guo, the leader of Datian, and Shi Lu of the Shui family worked together to complete the canal of Wuling, reflecting the long river of time. Zhou Qing personally wrote and wrote his name.
This canal was named Lingqu.
Go north along the Ling Canal, enter the Xiang River, ride a carriage and horse, and go straight to the city of Nanchang.
This tour of the entire Jiangnan counties exceeded the previous budget and lasted a full three and a half months. When we set off, everything was still at the end of midsummer.
It is already early winter.
Nanchang is also a bit cold.
"Qianhong."
"Pass this order to Ren Xiao, Tu Ju, Zhao Tuo and others."
"The land of the South China Sea has been conquered by the Qin Dynasty, and the land of the Dian Kingdom has been conquered by the great army. The map is presented, and it can be turned into a new county."
"With Hengpuguan, Yangshanguan, and the mountains beside Sihui as the boundaries, this area is divided into a new county, named - Nanhai County!"
"With Lingqu, Hedi, Hongshui River, and Yulin as the boundaries, this area is divided into a new county, named Guilin County!"
"With Junxian, Miaoling, Baise, Beipanjiang, and Nanpanjiang as the boundaries, this area is divided into a new county named Xiangjun!"
"The land of the former Dian Kingdom was placed under a new county, named Dian County!"
"These are the four new counties established by Da Qin."
"Ren Xiao is the governor of Nanhai County and Guilin County."
"Tu Ju is the governor of Dian County and Xiang County."
"Zhao Tuo was transferred to Kuaiji County to assist the county in guarding the horse industry and rectify the entire Kuaiji County."
Just two days after returning to Nanchang, I received an imperial edict from Xianyang, which discussed the division of Lingnan land into new counties.
Let yourself, the prince, offer suggestions.
This is naturally not difficult.
Walking in the side hall of the Zhengshi Hall, there is a map of all the moving averages of Jiangnan counties hanging there, including a map of the four counties that have not yet been officially established.
Following the Zhou and Qing dynasties, the four Lingnan counties were divided.
Bai Qianhong listened quietly to the side, and on the other side, there were other people in the Political Affairs Hall who also listened quietly.
Starting today, Da Qin has added four more counties, making it the forty-six counties of Da Qin.
"Yes, Prince!"
Bai Qianhong bowed, and it was not difficult for the master to write down what he said.
"With two people in charge of the four Lingnan counties, is it too much power for the princes and princes?"
A member of the political hall whispered.
"The four Lingnan counties are really barbaric. Sending county guards and officials to Xianyang is a waste of talent."
"We will discuss this matter again after ten years."
Zhou Qing looked at the man and said briefly.
"Here!"
The man bowed and said no more.
"You go and get busy with the affairs of the four Lingnan counties first."
"Qian Hong, come with me."
Zhou Qing turned around and left the main hall of the Political Affairs Hall, heading to his office.
"How are the arrangements there?"
Next photo.
On the way, he had already arranged to dispatch Fusu.
"At this time..., it should be the next photo."
Bai Qianhong responded.
"Um."
"Let Xiao Wu and the others be more careful and don't make any mistakes."
"Give this jade pendant to Fusu and carry it with you, never leaving it. If you don't use it, many people will die."
Turning his hands, a round gift jade appeared in his hand. It was not very delicate, but it had a different kind of purple light inside.
He spat out his strength and floated in front of Qian Hong.
"Son."
"I'll send it there myself."
"I'm planning to go to Lanling City tomorrow. I invite Duan Murong to Nanchang and go south to the land of the prime minister."
Bai Qianhong put away the jade pendant.
Young Master's original power is exerted on it. Unless it is done at the Hedao level, Young Master Fusu will have no worries.
"Can!"
"After you come back."
"Let's go to Qinglong's location next."
"In a few months, His Majesty will set off on his eastern tour."
Zhou Qing agreed.
It seems that I have quite a lot going on right now.
"Your Majesty is on an eastward tour, and the Young Master is also going?"
Bai Qianhong is curious.
"The Taiyue sacrifice is of great importance. I will go there in person, but I will not follow closely."
Zhou Qing turned his body slightly to the side and looked directly at the Taiyue Mountain in the north.
Next year will be the Taiyue Sacrifice.
Time flies really fast.
I don’t know how to make Xianyang’s Twelve Golden People?
Mirage!
Already entering the sea!
Taiyue Sacrifice!
I will plan the whole process and try not to make any mistakes.
The ancient covenant of stars was established due to the sacrifice of Taiyue.
