Invincible from the beginning of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 457 The whereabouts of Sun Ce and Cao Ang

Cao Ang and Sun Ce were not surprised by Zhang Ming's words, they had thought about it before.

When they surrender, they usually become rich and have no rights, but they can live a rich life.

However, Zhang Ming now wants to give them another choice.

They were looking forward to, waiting for Zhang Ming to give them another choice.

"The second is that I will give you a piece of land overseas and give you a hundred thousand Ziming. You go out and become kings."

Both were stunned.

overseas?

be king.

Could it be that Zhang Ming wanted to test them to see if they would give up their hegemony.

Once they choose the second, is Zhang Ming going to judge them to be innocent and kill them?

Zhang Ming seemed to see through their thoughts.

"You don't need to doubt this king. With this king's current strength, even if you don't do anything to defend against you, you won't be able to make waves."

"The reform of the whole of China is in full swing. Now the provincial system, the new official system, and the vigorous development of wasteland."

"The people under my rule live and work in peace and contentment, and within a hundred years, no one has the basis for rebellion."

This is Zhang Ming's confidence.

As long as he can live for a few more decades and further promote innovation, no one has the basis for rebellion.

Moreover, when Zhang Ming was alive, he would definitely crack down on land annexation.

Moreover, his official system, with officials at all levels stepping up step by step, can also greatly eliminate the existence of stupid officials.

As for whether there will be a faint king in the future, Zhang Ming can no longer control it.

When he is alive, it is enough to carry out a series of policies of his own.

At this time, Sun Ce and Cao Ang hesitated.

Zhang Ming ordered someone to bring a map.

"These red circles are overseas islands. An island has a large area, enough to build several cities."

"Huaxia needs foreign enemies to develop. If you go there, you may be foreign enemies hundreds of years later."

"Even if you don't go, in the future, my descendants will also be entrusted."

"In China, there won't be too many royal families, and a country can't support too many royal families. Otherwise, in just two or three hundred years, these royal families will wipe out the country."

The two of them believed Zhang Ming's words.

"Go down first, you can talk to your respective main personnel, your army will be dispersed immediately."

The army, Zhang Ming immediately confiscated the army, and then some of them were going to build cities and roads.

If you let them go all at once, they will be used by those who want to, and maybe it will be the other way around.

Release them slowly, and arrange them to cultivate land and houses.

First of all, Zhang Ming will put some of those who have family members first, and let them return to their hometowns for farming.

There are also some who have no family members, go to build the city first, and pay wages.

Cao Ang and Sun Ce have already surrendered, and there will be no problems in the future.

Zhang Ming's army went out to occupy all parts of Jingzhou.

Then, even Sun Ce's Changsha City was about to be taken over.

"There's only one place left."

After Sun Ce and Cao Ang left, Zhang Ming let out a sigh of emotion.

There is one place left, and most of Shuchuan has been occupied by Liu Bei at this time.

Zhang Ming couldn't deal with it in a short time.

The land of Jingzhou needs Zhang Ming to be busy.

Zhang Ming transferred Tian Feng directly.

He wants Tian Feng to sit in Jingzhou, fight against local tyrants, and divide the land.

In Jingzhou, the relationship is really complicated.

A large number of aristocratic families occupy land and have talents.

Now, Zhang Ming wants to break these old things.

In the past, you can let time choose whether to go or stay.

Now, they have no choice but to choose life or death.

In fact, there is no choice, just accept Zhang Ming's adaptation obediently.

Now, most of the family's wealth has been confiscated by Zhang Ming.

However, they still have enough money to live on for a long time.

Jingzhou is too rich.

Shijia finally ran here.

The army moved in and took control of all the cities, and at the same time, a large number of officials began to take office.

Many officials are foreigners.

Many aristocratic families incited rebellion.

As a result, it was detected by the spies that Zhang Ming had buried long ago.

Once discovered, the army immediately went to arrest people.

They didn't kill the people they caught, and the family members directly confiscated their property, and they were arrested and sent to the construction site.

The poor, who have little property to collect, are also sent to the construction site.

Zhang Ming took control of Jingzhou for a month and arrested more than 1 people.

At the same time, the two construction sites for the city were somewhat full.

Zhang Ming let some troops retire and go home.

The army has retired one after another.

These soldiers are very reluctant.

Here they have food, drink, money, and honor.

However, an order is an order.

He was given a lot of retirement pay, and he could live for more than two years without doing anything at home.

Tian Feng has been here for half a month, and Zhang Ming has also been in Xiangyang City.

At this time, Sun Ce and Cao Ang came to him again.

"You have all decided to go overseas?"

Sun Ce said: "It's decided. My father's foundation has already been lost in my hands. I can only venture out to sea and create another foundation."

Chu Xiaoran nodded, and then said: "Then you should go to the estuary of the Yangtze River to prepare first. Yuanhai doesn't just go out as soon as you say it. I will arrange a boat for you. You should also send some people out to investigate first, and then return to the sea." To transport food, agricultural tools, etc. to the past.”

In the southeastern region, around the Indian Ocean, there are too many places to occupy.

Zhang Ming wants to occupy these places.

Then, slowly spread out.

From now on, these will be the Huaxia Circle.

Zhang Ming looked at Cao Ang again.

"Mr. Cao Ang, if you go out, I will return the title of King Wei to you, and I will also give you a hundred thousand people."

"I choose to go out too."

Zhang Ming nodded.

"It's hard to leave my homeland, but I also have to let more people go out. This is for the continuation of my Chinese civilization after hundreds of thousands of years."

"No matter what, the world is big. At least for a few hundred years, we Han people don't need to compete for land for the sake of survival."

"There are more lands overseas waiting for us."

Zhang Ming also asked Cao Ang to prepare.

"King Liao, this is the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo."

Sun Ce also presented the Jade Seal of Chuanguo.

This thing is only useful to Zhang Ming now, even if other people have it, it is just a good item.

"Jade Seal of Chuanguo."

Zhang Ming took the jade seal.

This thing symbolizes orthodoxy.

"Okay, you guys go to prepare, you generals and advisers, take away those who are willing to go."

"Young Master Cao Ang, Cao Ren, and Xia Houyuan, I will release them immediately. If they are willing to leave, let's go together."

"Thank you, King Liao."

Gone, they're gone, this time gone, but I don't know when we can see each other again.

Maybe we will never see each other again, maybe Zhang Ming will make an east tour.

After the two left, Zhang Ming called Tian Feng again.

"Tian Feng, what is the main difficulty here?"

"Hey, we don't have many local officials in Jingzhou, so it's still a lot of trouble to manage it."

"Well, it's not too difficult. As long as the people get benefits, there will be no trouble."

"That's right, now that the land and farm tools are being distributed slowly, the voices of the common people have become much quieter, mainly because some gentry and landlords are still unwilling to lose their influence."

"Then send the army down, let part of the army retire, and turn it into a militia organization to control the village."

Tian Feng nodded, and will do it soon.

"By the way, how much money was collected this time?"

Zhang Ming still cared about wealth.

"Some were taken away by Liu Bei, but what we found was more than 6000 million in cash, and a large amount of real estate. The land cannot be sold, and it will be divided directly."

"Enough, some of the money will be used to build Luoyang and Yecheng."

"In addition, allocate 1000 million to Sun Ce and Cao Ang to build a city at the mouth of the Yangtze River. We don't need any city walls for the time being, and we can repair and stop there first."

"Let's keep the other money for now, the king has no place to spend it now."

Immediately, Tian Feng was moved.

Zhang Ming finally stopped spending money randomly, and finally had some money left in his hand.

"However, after Jingzhou is settled and basically stabilized, construction will start slowly across the country."

"Divided into several decades, all provinces must be accessible during the lifetime of this king."

At first, Tian Feng was taken aback, and then it was divided into decades, that was no problem at all.

In fact, there is no way for Zhang Ming to divide it into decades.

Because, he not only wants to build the Chi Road, but also slowly connect it with cement roads.

Canals also needed to be built.

Maybe he can't do it in his life, but he will plan to go on.

The canal must be built, but corvee cannot be collected, and the people can only spend money to build it.

"My lord, I'm afraid Jingzhou won't be able to deal with it in a short time. Should the army withdraw part of it first?"

"Well, the next step is to fight against Liu Bei."

"Jingzhou will be handed over to you. I will stay for about a month before going back to Beiping City."

Tian Feng also wanted Zhang Ming to go back earlier.

In Jingzhou, there is Tianfeng guarding, and another 15 troops are stationed, no problem at all.

The land of Jingzhou was slowly cleared.

The people also gradually settled down.

Zhang Ming began to check the construction of medical schools and the establishment of public hospitals.

Now, apart from Beiping City, only Xuzhou has opened a medical school.

As for public hospitals, there are only a dozen of them now.

Public hospitals are very effective. People go to see a doctor, and the cost is reduced a lot.

The most important thing is that people are willing to go to the doctor.

The fees are low, and the doctor's salary and bonuses are all paid by the government.

The hospital charges a fee.

"Another medical school will be prepared, divided into crash courses and five-year courses."

The crash course is that some folk doctors gather together and train for three months.

Then let them learn on the job, and then come back every six months for a month of training.

The five-year class is to recruit graduates from other colleges, study for five years, and then work.

"All medical students do not need tuition fees. The school manages food and housing, and also subsidizes part of the money every month."

"Just build one in Jingzhou."

If the population is to skyrocket, medicine cannot keep up.

After Zhang Ming made his decision, he began to write a detailed draft.

It doesn't take much money, just hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Tian Feng won't frown when he gets Zhang Ming's draft, he can afford it.

However, it is not so easy to build a public hospital system.

"take it easy."

Zhang Ming has now pointed out Jiangshan and slowly transformed the land.

A month later, in Dading of Jingzhou, there is no need for Zhang Ming to guard here.

So he went back.

It's not fast to go back, because he has to visit several places on purpose.

Arrived in Luoyang first.

At this time, Luoyang was working in full swing.

In addition to the work team, many sheds have been built.

Lots of things are sold here.

Fruit and vegetable drinks are available.

From time to time, some people can be seen eating and drinking.

Most of them are soldiers of the army.

Because they have little burden and have money.

Their military pay was quite a lot.

"Brothers, I would like to offer you a toast. We have been comrades for many years, and I will go home to farm. I don't know if there will be a chance to meet in the future."

Some soldiers who received the notice of retirement gathered together.

"Done."

"In the past, I thought that one day I would be able to go home to farm and marry a daughter-in-law, but now these things are no problem."

"At the beginning, being a soldier was just to survive and eat, but now I just want to fight the world with my lord."

"Don't think about it, the lord doesn't need so many troops now."

"It's done, the lord has treated us very well. He gave me seven hundred copper coins and two silver coins at a time. When I arrive at the place, I can still share five acres of fertile land and one cow."

Everyone sighed, compared with their previous life.

After Zhang Ming put on makeup, he was next to him, and he brought a few people with him, who looked like merchants.

Here, there are many storytellers and newspaper readers.

Many people gather every day.

Here, ordinary people spend less.

One is, how long have they been here, and they don't have much money.

The second is that their family is still poor and reluctant.

The army here, the original [-] troops, has been reduced to [-].

The [-] will wait until the work is completed before leaving.

Because, many surrendered soldiers were arranged here, and many aristocratic families and people who were disobedient and troubled were arrested from other places.

If these people dare to make trouble, the [-] regular army will let them know what regret is.

Zhang Ming still needs the [-] troops.

At the same time, it is also necessary to release some soldiers who have served for many years and have been fighting abroad for many years.

Letting them go back is also good for Zhang Ming's rule. They will protect Zhang Ming, become their own eyes and ears, and help control the village.

After spending three days on the construction site, order was managed here, and there were only [-] troops stationed there.

It refers to the army that patrols, maintains law and order, and carries weapons.

Three thousand is enough. The officers here can mobilize the [-] working troops in case of emergency.

"Luoyang, let's build slowly."

Zhang Ming didn't ask how fast Luoyang was, because it would have different voices when it was built soon.

At least it can't be built before he proclaims himself emperor, otherwise the country's capital will be difficult to arrange.

After seeing Luoyang, Zhang Ming went to Yecheng again.

The construction speed of Yecheng is also very fast, with more than one hundred thousand people working intensively.

Zhang Ming went back along the road, and it took three months to reach Beiping City.

When he arrived in Beiping City, Zhang Ming called Xi Zhicai first.

"Zhicai, the attack on Shuchuan can be arranged in advance, but I will do it after a year. At that time, I will use the momentum of thunder to take Shuchuan very quickly."

Now, Zhang Ming doesn't have to keep anything, he can use whatever means he has.

"Yes, my lord, my subordinates will arrange it immediately."

Zhang Ming went to the harem again to live a life without shame.

After more than ten days, Zhang Ming came out.

Then he began to arrange overseas colonization.

"North and South America are still too far away."

"Ten years later, let's deal with the south and southeast first."
