523, Danyang City after the war

Although Jingbei has basically come out of the impact of the war, Zhu Wei still hopes that Jingbei will focus on stabilizing internal affairs for the time being, so that a suitable civil servant is needed to preside over internal affairs.

The problem is that the loyalty of Zhu Wei's Wenchen in Xiangyang, Jia Xu, Kuai Liang, Han Song, Xiang Lang, Song Zhong, Liu Ba, Liu Xian and others cannot completely trust Zhu Wei.

As for the newly joined Zhuge Jin, Zhu Wei was going to take him to Jiangdong, so after thinking about it in his heart, he really couldn't find a suitable person for a while.

Zhu Wei actually had the intention to transfer Zhang Zhao, who stayed in Yuzhang, to come over, after all, now Yuzhang can no longer continue to be Zhu Wei's military and political center, so Zhang Zhao should be able to go to Jingbei to preside over the overall situation, the big deal is to remotely control Yuzhang.

With Zhang Zhao's ability and Zhang Zhao's fame, replacing Zhu Wei to preside over the overall situation in Xiangyang is enough to deter other civil and military forces, and it is enough to stabilize people's hearts.

But the problem is that it also takes time for Zhang Zhao to come over, and Jiangdong really needs Zhu Wei to go over as soon as possible, so after thinking about it again, Zhu Wei can only leave Xu Shu behind, and then send an order to Yuzhang, and wait for Zhang Zhao to go to Jingbei to preside over the overall situation, and then let Xu Shu turn to Jiangdong.

After this rough arrangement, in early August 197, Zhu Wei officially took a boat down the east of the river to Danyang City.

It took four days for Zhu Wei to land in Dantu County, Jiangdong.

Then, under the protection of the 5,000 crossbow arrowmen of the Chinese military camp and the personal guards of the 3,000 white feather battalion, Zhu Wei finally came to Danyang City, the current state of Jiangdong.

Now Zhu Wei is not the original white-bodied Confucian, he no longer needs to look at the color of others, and he will no longer be suppressed and restrained by anyone, and now Zhu Wei is the new lord of Jiangdong, returning to this big city of state governance in Jiangdong.

However, at this time, Danyang City is like a big barracks and a big construction site.

Danyang City, which was originally burned to ashes by Sun Ce, has now begun to be rebuilt under Wang Yuyan's arrangement, and it can be said that it will become a completely new city.

Now Wang Yuyan has a large number of young and strong laborers in his hands, in addition to the two elite main forces of the Xionglu Battalion and the Shenjian Battalion, others such as Huang Zhong's Jiangdong Battalion, Cai Mao's Jiangling Naval Army, as well as Zhou Yu, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Chen Wu, Yan Baihu, Yan Yu brought those soldiers and coerced young people, all of which were drastically reorganized by Wang Yuyan.

Just like the practice in the original Zhu Wei army, many soldiers who were too young or too old, or whose physical fitness was not up to standard, were eliminated one after another, or were organized into the Tuntian auxiliary army, or directly discharged their armor and returned to the field to become ordinary people.

Of course, while eliminating these weak soldiers, Wang Yuyan will also fill in the selected young and strong recruits, so it will not make people think that Wang Yuyan is taking the opportunity to weaken their military power.

Especially Cai Mao's side is still a little cautious, but seeing that Wang Yuyan quickly filled in the number of troops for him and restored the establishment of the army, he was a lot more relieved.

As for Huang Zhong, he didn't care about this, he had already had the idea of rectifying the hodgepodge of troops under him, and now Wang Yuyan came forward, which reduced the contradictions between him and his subordinate Zhang Ying, Yu Su, Chen Heng, Mao Gan, and Jin Qi.

Of course, the new pawns who are now filling in Huang Zhong's Jiangdong camp have also become Huang Zhong's direct army, which can help Huang Zhong balance the original generals who controlled the military power, so that Huang Zhong can really control this army.

Under Wang Yuyan's arrangement, Huang Zhong's Jiangdong battalion really took on the responsibility of guarding Jiangdong.

The Yangtze River defense line against Yuan Shu, which was originally separated from the Taishi Cishen Arrow Battalion to garrison Liyang Military Town, Niuzhu Battalion, Hengjiang, and Dangli Ferry, was soon handed over to Huang Zhong's Jiangdong Battalion.

So Ma Zhong, Zhang Shuo, Chen Ying, Bao Long and other generals scattered in these places of the Divine Arrow Battalion also returned to the establishment of the Divine Arrow Battalion with their troops and horses.

In the end, the number of troops of Huang Zhong's Jiangdong battalion, under Wang Yuyan's arrangement, reached as much as 24,000 or 5,000, of which basically all of them were elite soldiers after the selection, and the Jiangdong battalion was really regarded as an army with a certain combat effectiveness in the establishment of Zhu Wei's army.

But even after such a large reorganization, Wang Yuyan still has a lot of labor available in his hands, and many of the eliminated soldiers have been organized into Tuntian auxiliaries just like the reorganization experience in Yuzhang, which is actually a logistics force that can do anything.

In addition, this time in and around Danyang City, many people who were previously coerced by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were resettled, and now these people have nothing to do for the time being, and most of them need money and food from the government to stabilize their lives.

Therefore, Wang Yuyan once again relied on the previous experience of relocating and relocated people in Yuzhang, and adopted the method of cash-for-work to use these idle manpower, either to rebuild the city of Danyang, or to carry out the construction of the surrounding villages outside the city of Danyang, and also to carry out some basic projects to repair bridges and pave roads.

Anyway, under Wang Yuyan's measures, Danyang City, which originally experienced the war, and the surrounding areas of the city are basically full of construction sites, but Wang Yuyan's arrangement has also made the hearts of those who were originally broken and uneasy because of the war gradually settle down again.

After all, everyone has something to do, and they can obtain money, food, and private wealth through labor to support their families, that is, they have the hope of life, and the hearts of ordinary people are actually very simple.

Of course, in order to restore the post-war affairs on the Danyang side, Wang Yuyan spent a lot on the Jiangdong side.

Thanks to the fact that when Sun Ce and Zhou Yu swept Danyang and Wu County, they plundered a large amount of property, and now after being confiscated by Wang Yuyan, these properties have become the basic source of financial resources for the restoration of Danyang.

At the same time, Wang Yuyan also allocated grain and grass materials from the southwestern counties of Danyang County, Yuzhang County and Huiji County, which had not suffered from the disaster of war, so for the time being, it was still able to meet the current needs of Danyang City.

Of course, after this Jiangdong War, the counties and counties in Jiangdong were also completely attached to Zhu Wei's name, and Wang Yuyan's allocation of materials did not dare to be lazy, but they tried their best to cooperate, just hoping to leave a good impression on Wang Yuyan's side.

As for Wang Lang of Huiji County, he originally belonged to the local forces in Jiangdong with the nature of an independent foreign domain, but because of the relationship between Wang Lang and Wang Yuyan, now Wang Lang is also completely included in Jiangdong as a whole.

Even the Huiji Army controlled by Zhou Xin was completely handed over to Wang Yuyan for reorganization and deployment.

Wang Yuyan also unceremoniously arranged Zhou Xin from the position of the chief general of the Huiji army to the commander of the Jiangdong Tuntian Battalion composed of the elimination of auxiliary troops by various ministries and armies, and the original Huiji soldiers were also brought together in Wang Yuyan's direct subordinate.

Of course, Wang Yuyan also consulted Zhou Xin's opinion in advance, and Zhou Xin had no objection to such an arrangement.

In fact, Zhou Xin's age is not young now, and he has long lost his original intention of making meritorious contributions, so now that Wang Yuyan has arranged him in such a position, it can be regarded as allowing him to retire as the head of the Tuntian camp.

Don't look at him, although he is the commander of the Tuntian battalion in charge of all the auxiliary troops, but the troops under him are like Tenghuxiong who stayed in Yuzhang, and there are a lot of them, and this is also a bit like the head of the army's logistics department, which is actually a good position in the army......
