It can be said that after Zhu Wei ended the large-scale wars in Jingzhou and Jiangdong, he finally entered a period of rest and recuperation.

During this period, only Zulang's mountain camp in Jingnan was still carrying out the conquest and relocation of the barbarians in the mountains, and Zulang's influence on the barbarians in the mountains gradually extended to the mountains in the south of Jiaozhou and the north of Yizhou.

In addition, Zhu Heng was in the south of Danyang County, and he also began to move on the mountains in Yi County, She County, Jing County and other places, and with the help of Jin Qi and Mao Gan, the two former mountain marshals, he took the lead in clearing and moving the mountains out of the mountains for the people.

However, the fighting in these two places is not actually a large-scale war, it can only be said that the political migration of the population combined with the military threat measures, plus the fact that it happened in the mountains, the outside world is not so clear.

But Zu Lang and Zhu Huan both sides of the mountain barbarians and Shanyue after the effect is obvious, Zu Lang's side needless to say, such a forced migration of the barbarian tribes in the mountains has lasted for nearly a year, with batches of mountain barbarians migrating to settle outside the mountains, Lingling and Guiyang counties have at least added no less than 100,000 people.

Of course, in order to consolidate this effect, Zhu Wei also specially ordered Lingling County and Guiyang County to give a lot of preferential treatment to the barbarians who moved to settle down, such as sending people to teach them how to farm, and even providing them with seeds and cattle, and also carrying out preferential policies such as three reductions and five exemptions in taxes.

Then, for those barbarian villages that migrated out of the mountains, Zhu Wei also used a similar method of relative autonomy, appointing the original tribal elders in the barbarians as village chiefs, village elders, and village chiefs and other rural officials, so as to reduce the contradictions between the Han and the barbarians, and not make the barbarians who moved out feel like they were enslaved by the Han people.

In fact, there is another advantage to this, that is, as long as Zhu Wei's side takes care of the country officials who have been transformed by the tribal elders and gives them some benefits, he can control the migrated barbarians through their hands.

In addition, under Zhu Wei's strict order, Liu Du, the Taishou of Lingling County, and Zhao Fan, the Taishou of Guiyang County, also took the initiative to restrict the covetousness of large families such as the scholars and Haoqiang in the county for the barbarian population, so the barbarians who moved outside the mountains felt that life was better than in the mountains, and gradually stabilized their minds.

This can also be regarded as a means shared by sticks and sweet dates, and some of the good lives of these migrated barbarians are examples, and the relocation of Zulang and Pang Tong to other barbarians in the mountains seems to have gone much smoother.

As for Zhu Huan in Jiangdong, there are two original Shanyue marshals of Jin Qi and Mao Gan as the forerunners, and it is naturally very smooth for the Shanyue Qing to relocate in the southern mountains of Danyang County, but this is only a beginning for Zhu Huan, and in the future, facing the Shanyue tribes in the ancient Yue Mountains in the south of Huiji County is the time to really test his ability.

With the help of such means, Zhu Wei also enriched his population base in Jingnan, Yuzhang, and Jiangdong little by little, and only when the population base was increased could he bring him more taxes and support him in the battle for hegemony in the Central Plains.

After all, compared to the southern land, the Central Plains has long been full of mature land, and there are also ordinary people who are accustomed to paying taxes and money to survive.

This is also why the original Three Kingdoms era finally ended in the hands of the Sima Jin Dynasty, which occupied the Central Plains.

No matter how hard Zhuge Liang tried, with the land of Xishu, there was really no way to compare with the heritage of the Central Plains, so in terms of history, the forces of Xishu and Dongwu during the Three Kingdoms period could only be regarded as developing the south for the overall development of China.

It's just that in Zhu Wei's dying down and recuperating his strength, the situation in the Central Plains still began to advance along the track of history.

Although Zhu Wei swallowed Jingzhou and Jiangdong in the south, in fact, the butterfly effect on the Central Plains was not very large, because Jingzhou and Jiangdong did not have much impact on the situation in the Central Plains in the original history.

Therefore, after the New Year of 198 AD passed, Yuan Shu began to use troops in the Chen State, and Cao Cao had to deal with the threat of Yuan Shu.

In fact, in the original history, Yuan Shu would use troops to Chen in September 197, thus posing a threat to Xu Du, leading Cao Cao to lead the army to the east, so that Yuan Shu could only survive in Huainan and collapse.

But now the time when Yuan Shu became emperor is much later than the original history, and in August and September 197, it was also the time when Zhu Wei sent troops into Guangling County, and Cao Cao's edict to Zhu Wei also asked Zhu Wei to conquer the traitor Yuan Shu, so where did Yuan Shu dare to easily move troops outward at this time, the main energy was on guarding against Zhu Wei's side.

It's just that Zhu Wei didn't continue to use troops after that, and he married his wife again in Xiangyang for pleasure, and it didn't seem that he had the intention of using troops again, so Yuan Shucai began to make small moves again.

In fact, at this time, Yuan Shu's side already had some precursors of exhaustion because of his luxurious living needs, so Yuan Shu also hoped to expand outward and plunder some money and grain from the outside for his use.

It's just that on the side of Xuzhou, after being defeated by Lu Bu before, Yuan Shu was a little afraid of Lu Bu, and Guangling, Jiangdong, Yuzhang, and Jiangxia were all Zhu Wei's territory, and in the face of Zhu Wei's strong strength, Yuan Shu was unwilling to take the initiative to provoke a war with Zhu Wei, so it was like the original history, Yuan Shu's eyes fell on Chen Guo in Yuzhang.

As the name suggests, Chen Guo is a Chen king under the Eastern Han Dynasty royal family, and the current Chen Wang is called Liu Chong, who is also in his forties.

It is said that this Liu Pet is brave and fierce, good at using a bow and crossbow, and has superb archery skills. (It's quite suitable to be a traverser, haha!) ）

At the time of the Yellow Turban Army's uprising earlier, the county officers and soldiers of Chen State abandoned the city and fled, but this Liu Pet actually recruited troops on his own, so as to guard the stability of his feudal country, and it happened that the people on the side of Chen Guo also knew that Liu Pet was good at shooting, so they were afraid of him and did not dare to rebel with the Yellow Turban Army, so Liu Pet actually guarded his Chen Country and was not disturbed by the Yellow Turban rebels.

Therefore, at the end of the Han Dynasty, although there was a famine in the world, many kings and princes of the Han dynasty no longer enjoyed rent income, but were constantly looted.

But this Chen King Liu Chong claimed to be the general of the Fu Han Dynasty, and built the Chen State under his occupation into a relatively rich, strong and safe place, and the people of the neighboring counties also went to take refuge.

As a result, Liu Chong's subordinates in the Chen State reached more than 100,000 people, and he could be regarded as a small local tyrant in the Central Plains in the late Han Dynasty.

In fact, Chen Guo is also a flat river, the land of four wars, between Chen Liu, Xu, Runan, Shouchun, Xiaopei, before Cao Cao just beat Yongqiu, pacified Yanzhou, he had a fancy to Chen Guo's wealth, sent troops to think of Chen Guo looting money and grain, but it seems that Liu Chong beat back, failed to get any benefits......
