For Liu Zhang, Guo felt that the treatment given to him could not be better than that given to Liu Cong.

Because he resisted, it was different from Liu Cong's simple and complete surrender.

So although Guo Peng decided to give him the title of marquis, because he had resisted the Wei army, he brought a lot of losses to the Wei army, that is, he did not resist to the end, but still surrendered, so on the whole, only 1,300 households were given food, and they were allowed to live in Luoyang.

At that time, Liu Zhang will have nothing to do, and he can still communicate with Liu Cong about the feeling of being a prisoner, and maybe he can get together a table of mahjong or something, which can be regarded as dissipating the feeling of emptiness and loneliness.

These people should raise a few pigs and make a bonsai, highlighting the orthodoxy of the Guo Wei Dynasty and the majestic atmosphere of his Guo someone, showing that the Guo Wei Empire is an empire with a future.

It also gives Gongsun a final reminder.

Times have changed, and the three major separatist forces in Jiangnan have all been wiped out by me.

I heard that Gongsun Du's health has not been very good recently, and he seems to be sick, and he doesn't know what kind of illness it is, and he doesn't know if he can survive until the Wei army goes to the crusade.

Anyway, this unification is necessary.

Guo has already decided to take not only the so-called Pingzhou, but also the Korean Peninsula.

Pingzhou can really exist as a new state, including the east of Liaodong and the Korean Peninsula, as the first contribution of Guo to expand the territory after the founding of the country.

On the second day of the fifth month, Man Pet hurried from Yuzhou to Luoyang and met Guo Peng in the Luoyang Qinzheng Palace.

Guo Peng stepped forward with a laugh, held Manzhong's hand, stroked his back, and walked with him, looking quite intimate.

"Over the years, you have governed Yuzhou so well, and the grain stocks handed over every year are ahead of other states, only Jizhou can compare with you, Berning, you have lived up to my expectations of you."

"This is all Your Majesty's blessing, and the minister is just acting in accordance with His Majesty's orders, and there is no credit to speak of."

The expression on Man's face and the words in his mouth didn't match the number at all.

"Hahahaha, you, don't be modest, can't I still see your credit? Don't worry, I see it all in my eyes, it is a good thing that Wei has a conscientious history like you. ”

Guo Peng patted Manzhong's shoulder, and then said to him: "Berning, this time, I have a more important task to hand over to you, you should know." ”

"Yes, the minister knows, His Majesty intends to appoint the minister as the assassin of Yizhou and rush to Yizhou to stabilize the situation."

"That's right, Yizhou Thorn History."

Guo Peng nodded: "Unlike Yangzhou and Jingzhou, Yangzhou has Gu Yuansi, and Jingzhou has Kuaiyidu, they are all locals, have a local foundation, and they have also made contributions, so although they are locals, I have to avoid the Three Mutual Law and let them do the history of state assassination."

The situation in Yizhou is different, Yizhou is in power from Dongzhou, the locals in Yizhou are very suppressed, and there is no unified leader who can convince the public, which requires a person with the means, majesty and ability to do the history of Yizhou and serve the public, and you are the person I fancie. ”

"Your Majesty trusts the minister, and the minister is grateful, and the only way to repay him is death."

Full of pets immediately bowed down.

"Get up, get up, get up."

Guo Peng couldn't cry or laugh: "Who told you to repay you with death?" Let you go to Yizhou to do the history of assassination, nor let you go to Yizhou to get off the oil pot, what do you die? If you die in Yizhou, then tens of thousands of troops in Yizhou can kill themselves, don't always talk about death, do you hear? ”

"The minister knows his mistake."

Full pet smiled.

Guo Peng nodded.

"The situation in Yizhou is not complicated, but I have high requirements for Yizhou, I want you to turn Yizhou into a granary as soon as possible, first of all, at least it must be able to supply it to the army for the southern expedition to the southern counties, Berning, you understand me.

All I want is to pay taxes to me for every inch of real land, since there are counties, then taxes must be paid, if someone does not pay taxes, it is against me, and those who oppose me will not end well. ”

"Your Majesty is going to conquer those southern barbarians in the south?"

"Yes, those barbarians must all be pacified, and the counties in Nanzhong must really send people to govern, collect taxes, and make them the royal land, and the decrees of the imperial court must be implemented in the local area and must be effectively implemented.

I don't allow anyone else in the land of Wei to call the shots, go against my will, and disobey my orders, so Berning, the burden on you is heavy. ”

Guo Peng sighed: "Looking at the ministers of the court, I think that only you are the most suitable candidate, except for you, I can't find a second person who is suitable to be the assassin of Yizhou." ”

"The minister will definitely live up to His Majesty's expectations."

Full of pets looks very confident.

"You're confident?"

"Your Majesty handed over Yizhou to the ministers after leveling it, if the ministers can't do their errands under such circumstances, do they still have the face to continue to receive Your Majesty's money?"

Full of confidence on his face.

"Okay, okay."

Guo Peng laughed and patted the shoulder: "I have Berning, Yizhou is worry-free!" Hahaha! ”

After laughing for a while, Guo Peng and Man Pet walked in the palace again, chatted, and instructed some things to make Man Pet pay attention to.

"This road must be repaired, the road from Guanzhong to Hanzhong, since I pacified Hanzhong, I have been repairing, and now Qishan Road and Luogu Road have begun to become large, but they still need to be repaired, but that is a matter of Yongzhou, it is a matter of Chen Gongtai, you don't have to worry.

But the road from Hanzhong to Chengdu, and then extending to Nanzhong, will become the road for the army to march, and it is the army's biggest reliance on the barbarians in Nanzhong, this is what you are responsible for, what the Qin people did not have time to do, I want to finish it, you have to help me. ”

Man Pet frowned and thought for a while.

"Your Majesty means to add and repair the Shiniu Road from Hanzhong to Chengdu, and then continue to repair to the south and repair to Nanzhong?"

"Yes, the Shiniu Road will be renovated, from Hanzhong to Chengdu, and then to Nanzhong, this vital road must be repaired, repaired, and connected with the road from Guanzhong to Hanzhong when the time comes.

Guo Peng nodded.

The brow of the full pet did not stretch.

"The difficulty of Shu Road, it is not a matter of one or two days, when Sima mistakenly marched into Shuzhong, a lot of effort was wasted for this road, Shu and Qin people exhausted their efforts to open up the Shiniu Road, but they could barely walk, if they continued to repair......

Your Majesty, I heard that Yongzhou repaired Luogu Road for three years, costing more than 6 million yuan, and more than 30,000 people died, which is really not a small amount, right? ”

Guo Peng nodded.

"It costs a lot of money, and there are more than deaths, basically the prisoners of war obtained from the crusade against Liangzhou and the remnants of the Yellow Turban in Hanzhong are smashed in it, nearly 40,000 people, it took more than three years to repair Luogu Road, and now the project is almost over, and people are almost dead.

Gongtai also asked me before that if the Meridian Road is still repaired, if it is repaired, how to repair it, whether the imperial court directly allocates funds to send people, or how to get it, if you send people, where can people be sent, how many people can die, he doesn't dare to guarantee that everyone will be alive and returned to me. ”

Guo Peng chuckled lightly and looked at Man Chong: "This matter, I asked Chen Gongtai not to ask me again, but to ask you." ”

"Ask the minister?"

Man Zhong was a little puzzled: "Your Majesty means that you want the ministers to use prisoners of war in Shuzhong to build roads?" ”

"No, building roads in Hanzhong and Yizhou is a fatal thing, the prisoners of war in Shuzhong are all ordinary people in Shuzhong, and they have to stay to farm and reclaim land and pay taxes, they pay taxes to me, I can't care about their lives, whoever doesn't pay taxes to me, I won't care about their lives."

Guo Peng smiled and said slowly: "Boning, you know all the subject countries around the counties of Yizhou, right?" ”
