The unification of Yangzhou had declared that Shen Ying was already at the forefront of the world. Today, Shen Ying and his advisors were discussing the future strategic development of Yangzhou. After the strategists sat down, Guo Jiayang stood up and said,""I have a rough idea of your current strategic goals for Yangzhou. They are to develop Yangzhou, seize Jingzhou, pacify Jiaozhou, keep an eye on Yizhou, form a good relationship with Xuzhou, and guard against Yuzhou. The so-called development of Yangzhou was naturally to restore production, reduce taxes, and vigorously develop Yangzhou sea salt. We'll attack the local Shan Yue Race first. As long as it's enough, we'll use it for our own use. The Jing State is the center of the Divine Prefecture, so its strategic position is naturally self-evident. In addition, although the current master of the Jing State is famous, he has not done much. This has played a huge role in our occupation of the Jing State. " There aren't any powerful factions in Jiao Province right now. Other than some Shan Yue people, they aren't a threat to us. As long as we appease them well, Jiao Province can be taken over smoothly. Yizhou is the second target of our strategy, and it is also an important channel for us to attack the southwest and northwest regions. The current ruler of Shu is Liu Yan, and he is still quite a character, but unfortunately, he is already old. This is why we are keeping an eye on him. Once Liu Yan passes away, we will immediately use troops against him. Xuzhou was a strategic location in the Central Plains. Back at Hulao Pass, the lord had already arranged for a very important chess piece, Liu Bei. Liu Bei was also struggling in Hebei. He had his senior brother Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu of the Han Dynasty in Youzhou. Liu Bei would not attack them unless he had no other choice. If he seized Jizhou, it would provoke Yuan Shao of Sizhou and Cao Cao of Yanzhou. Taking over Qingzhou was his next strategic policy. Cao Cao would naturally share a cup of soup when he attacked Qingzhou. In this case, the geographical location of Xuzhou was revealed. If Liu Bei wanted to leave the Central Plains, he could not attack Jizhou, let alone Yanzhou, so he had to leave Xuzhou.
If Liu Bei attacked, the governor of Xuzhou would definitely ask us for help. But at that time, we could occupy Xuzhou without expending a single soldier. There was another more important reason, which was that Cao Cao would never allow Liu Bei's forces to interfere in his rear. This way, he could use Cao Cao to attack Liu Bei, killing two birds with one stone. Sun Jian from Yuzhou was a ferocious tiger, and he would be terrifying no matter where he was. However, as long as he was on guard, there was naturally nothing to fear!”
Guo Jia's words were so overwhelming that the strategists clapped their hands and nodded in admiration. It seemed that this idea had won everyone's approval. Shen Ying was shocked by Guo Jia's words. Although Shen Ying had thought of some of these strategic ideas, they were definitely not as comprehensive as Guo Jia's. This also meant that Guo Jia's strategy could be perfect. Because these policies included the strongest dukes, the rest of the small factions could be ignored.
After Shen Ying digested Guo Jia's words, he said happily,"The strategic plan drawn up by Fengxiao will be our main goal in the future.”All the strategists agreed with this proposal.
"Brother, although Military Advisor Guo's strategy is important, talents are also indispensable. Now that there are many talents in Jiangdong, why not recruit them to achieve great things together?”Zhou Yu stood up and said.
"Gongjin is right. I wonder if there are any good talents to recommend.”Shen Ying naturally desired talents. Tian Feng stood up and said," My lord needs talents from all over the world to submit. You can put up notices in all the prefectures and counties of Yangzhou to recommend talents from all over the world. At the same time, you can let everyone recommend talented people to be officials."”
"Yuan Hao's words are reasonable.”Shen Ying nodded in agreement.
After Tian Feng sat down, Zhou Yu raised his head and said,""Brother, have you never heard of Jiang Dong and Zhang Er?”Shen Ying also stood up from his handsome chair and said,"Could it be that the two people you mentioned are Zhang Zhao of Pengcheng and Zhang Li of Guangling?”"So big brother knows about these two people! That would be easy. As long as he wrote a letter for his brother to bring, he would be able to recruit him.”Zhou Yu said excitedly.
Gu Yong patted his head and said,"My lord's teacher is Teacher Cai. As long as there's Teacher Cai's handwritten letter, it won't be a problem.”"If Yuan Tan hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it," Shen Ying exclaimed. Later, he would ask his father-in-law to write a letter and ask Gong Jin to bring these two.”
After hearing this, Zhou Yu naturally expressed that he would definitely do a good job. "How could I forget him?" Guo Jia patted his head and said.”Hearing this, the crowd hurriedly asked who the man was."This man is Liu Hua, also known as Ziyang, of Chengde, Huainan. He is a relative of the Han clan and has the ability to govern the world."”When Shen Ying heard this, he thought to himself that this Liu Hua was quite a character! In history, the siege weapons he made were very famous. He said,"Fengxiao, do you know where he lives now? Can you introduce him?”
"I was friends with this person back then. He should be at home now. As long as my lord writes a letter, I can make a trip myself and find this person for my lord.”Guo Jia said firmly. He wasn't jealous of Shen Ying's importance.
Shen Ying immediately agreed and asked Guo Jia to arrange for his family before inviting him.
The problem of talent was a big deal, and Shen Ying wanted to accomplish this. However, it required time, achievements, and reputation to influence others.
"In order to better develop River East, I've already drawn up a set of governance plans. Everyone can discuss it after listening.”Shen Ying thought for a moment and prepared to put the issue of Yangzhou's governance on the agenda. "First of all, Yangzhou is a coastal area, so sea salt naturally needs to be developed. After developing sea salt, we also need a good commercial channel to drive economic development and solve the problem of surplus labor.”Shen Ying explained the outline.
After Shen Ying finished speaking, he immediately thought about the information he knew and said,"Although there are hundreds of thousands of hectares of cultivated land in Yangzhou now, most of this land is in the hands of the bureaucrats and landlords. Although we have made great efforts to renovate it during this period of time, the progress is still not very great. If we were to calculate according to the taxes and food in previous years, we now have 220,000 regular troops. There are still Baoding and other places that need to be fed, so we can only barely maintain it.”
"Right now, we need to solve these problems once and for all. First, we need to reclaim some land in the name of the government and buy some with money." If the landlord class stubbornly resisted, they would be punished as traitors, their property confiscated, and banished to the army.”
Sun Shao agreed after hearing this." My lord, this order is feasible. In troubled times, we should use strict laws to make the order still."”
"We can't be too harsh. This method will only backfire and do us no good." Wu Jie said doubtfully.”
Shen Ying listened to their different opinions and said,""Of course, we can't be too harsh on the landlord. There are too many copper weapons in Tiger Mountain. We can melt these weapons and cast them into various household items. We can adopt a contract system for this project. That is to say, we can find some merchants to invest in the name of the government. We can collect a commission from them. In this way, we can make a profit, increase the commercial income of those people, and let those landowners who have less land have something to do.”
Tian Feng immediately said," That's a good idea. My lord, you actually thought of such a way. You're really a god!"”After hearing this, the strategists felt that this idea was something that their predecessors did not dare to think of! However, it was beneficial to development.
Shen Ying looked at the expressions of the strategists and couldn't help but say in his heart," This is the investment of future generations. It naturally didn't exist in ancient times." Before anyone could react, Shen Ying said,"All the reclaimed land will become official land in the future, but there is a premise that every family can get one mu of private land, which means that they don't have to pay any taxes. A family of six can get two mu of private land, and so on. Then, they would rent out the land to the farmers in the name of the government. They would have to hand over half of the grain to the government and give the rest to themselves.”
Shen Ying's new idea of dividing the land stunned the strategists. Guo Jia, who reacted quickly, immediately clapped his hands and said,"This idea is not bad. It can protect the interests of the farmers and promote the enthusiasm of the farmers. This would be a good way to increase production.”
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Shen Ying couldn't help but praise,"Fengxiao indeed has a unique vision."
Zhou Yu also said," Elder brother, this distribution of private property can be said to be another big breakthrough. It can really be said to be a grace order."”
Haha! Shen Ying smiled." There's another way to stimulate the development of commerce. That is to set up a government loan office. In other words, the government can lend money to some merchants as capital, or simply lend them money. However, the person who borrows money must produce some items that can be boycotted as proof. This will achieve a balance between the two. This way, many people who want to start a small business but don't have the capital will have more hope. It will also increase our income and thus resist the reduction of tax revenue.”
The strategists were already shocked by Shen Ying's strange thoughts, and after thinking about it, they immediately agreed.
Then there was the problem of the troops. The number of troops was a problem, but could the problem be solved? "The method of garrisoning troops has been used in Wu County for many years, but it has not achieved much effect." Shen Ying said to the strategists. The plan to station troops would still be implemented in the future, and the recruitment plan would also be divided into two plans. The first was to station troops. How should they station troops? The troops would be trained as usual. At the same time, they would have to plant some fields during the busy farming season and train in various places during the idle farming season. They would build water conservancy projects, build roads, dig and irrigate, and so on. This way, they would be able to obtain many benefits and solve many problems. The method of conscription was either a five-year system or a ten-year system. After the end of the service, one could request to retire, but they could also continue to serve. The age was 16 to 40 as the standard. If there was a major battle, the retired soldiers had to return to their troops immediately.”
Shen Ying's military service reform had stirred up a wave among the strategists. Shen Ying only smiled to himself and did not say anything else, because this was enough for these first-rate strategists in ancient times to digest for a few days. Shen Ying also announced the end of today's meeting. However, the contents of the meeting had to be passed down immediately after they were written down.
"We will follow your orders!" The strategists immediately said.”Shen Ying waved his hand and the strategists left. Shen Ying's work was not finished, so he buried his head in it again...
In the first year of Chuping of the Eastern Han Dynasty (190 AD), the year of turmoil was about to end. What kind of stormy years would China have to experience in the future?
[Description: In the previous chapter, I have already explained clearly that Chu ZhangLiao is the prefect and general of Shouchun. However, there are still many people asking me who is guarding Shouchun. I really don't know what to say.] Zhang Liao guarding Shouchun was of course the best choice, as all his friends in the Three Kingdoms knew about it.
