Chapter 24: The Southern Kingdom is also Exterminated (2)

After the feast of the bronze pillar, the real feast carnival that many barbarians had been waiting for for a long time finally began.

Nearly 100 cave masters, with their cronies, a total of 1,000 people, returned to Haimen Port with the official army. In this port under construction, they are in awe, and the prince will begin to divide up the land of Jiaozhi, dividing the land they have longed for for a long time according to the amount of merit.

"Fifty miles around Haimen Port, this is the land directly belonging to China, belonging to Haimen County, for the Jiaozhou Administration, and belonging to Guangnan West Road. It won't be distributed to anyone. ”

As the highest-ranking official in the barbarian tribe, Huang Jinman was allowed to be the first to enter the Recruiting Expedition established in Haimen Town. In the middle of the line, there is a huge sand table, the east is the sea, the west is the mountain, and the south is connected by a narrow channel, which is the sand table topographic map of Jiaozhou.

Huang Yuan had already learned the general distribution plan from his immediate superior, and explained to his father in front of the sand table how the land in Jiaozhou would be distributed.

"With Haimen Port, the official army can control the entire territory of Jiaozhou. In the future, if anyone rebels, the officers and soldiers can send troops directly from Haimen Port, and reinforcements can also come by sea, without fear of being hindered by someone in the middle. Without much effort, the port of Haimen can be defended. ”

Huang Yuan talked eloquently, and Huang Jinman nodded again and again with satisfaction. He had already determined how he would divide the two disconnected pieces of land in his hands. His two eldest sons, Huang Yuan and Huang Quan, one will inherit the clan in Guangyuan Prefecture, and the other will rule a new territory.

His own son followed Zhang Dian and Han Gang, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he could see that he had made a lot of progress than in the past. Give him this piece of land, and the gold can rest assured,

"As for the Thang Long Mansion, due to the existence of copper pillars, Zhang Shuai said that it will not be assigned to anyone. It was the main transportation route connecting the north and the south, and according to Vice Marshal Han, a military fortress would be set up – Hanoi was called Hanoi – and troops would be assigned to guard it. In addition to Thang Long Province, this is the case at several large ferry ports such as Wolto. ”

Huang Jinman was not surprised by this, it was impossible for the official army to only guard Haimen Port, just like Yongzhou, in addition to Yongzhou City, along the left and right rivers, a string of military villages was set up to control the surrounding tribes.

In another hall, Zhang Dan, Han Gang, Yan Da, and Li Xianlie sat among them.

“…… Through the Fura River, the tribes on both sides of the river were controlled...... No," he shook his head, "it's surveillance." ”

Yan Da can understand that if you want to control it, you have to put a lot of troops, but if it is surveillance, only a few hundred people are enough.

"The center of gravity of Jiaozhou is Haimen Port, even if it is the old Thang Long Mansion, it will not put too many troops." Han Gang also said, "At the beginning, Yongzhou was the border villages, and there were too many troops, so there were no soldiers available in Yongzhou City. When Yongping, Taiping, and Guwan were captured, the soldiers and horses in Yongzhou City could not even defend the city walls. If most of these troops were concentrated in Yongzhou, they might be able to keep it for three or five more days. ”

Yan Da and Li Xian both nodded, they had no objection to this, and the matter had actually been decided before. "But since you want to master the Fuliang River, then the sailors on the river must be indispensable." Yanda said.

"Not only the Fuliang River, but also the port of Haimen, also needs a sailor who can patrol the sea." Zhang Dian said, "There are many islands on the sea east of Haimen, which have been reduced to a desperate abyss, and it is best for the officers and soldiers to go to the islands as soon as possible to clear them, and they cannot invade the sea routes." ”

"What about Champa in the south?" Li Xian asked, "The destruction of the Jiaozhi country also allowed them to pick up the cheap." Several states and counties in the south have been occupied by them, and they cannot be allowed to run rampant and leave them alone. ”

Zhang's face stiffened.

At the same time that the official army conquered Thang Long Province, the Champa state, which had an old grudge against Jiaozhi, also took the opportunity to send troops and invade a huge territory.

Before, because of a series of affairs, the division was so busy up and down that they forgot about them, until a few days ago they sent people to the south of Jiaozhou, only to find that the flags of various places had changed.

"The official has already revised a letter to ask them to withdraw from the territory of Jiaozhou, which will send them to Zhancheng. If they dare to ignore it, the fate of Cochin is their fate. Zhang's voice was grim. The destruction of the country is a feat that he can shine on and leave a legacy to future generations. If someone wants to smear a layer of filth on his glory, then he will definitely not back down half a point, and will inevitably take revenge fiercely.

"I got Jiaozhou, Champa and Zhenla, and since then I have become neighbors with China." Han Gang smiled, "If they don't want to be a peaceful Emperor Song vassal state honestly, they don't mind turning them into Zhancheng Prefecture and Zhenla Prefecture." ”

"Just let the last general lead the troops." Yan Da got up and asked for battle, "I have to let them understand that the officers and soldiers will not leave Jiaozhi." ”

"Six hundred miles south from Hanoi Village, east of Changshan, all of them are the territory of the Great Song Dynasty." Han Gang pointed to the map, the north of Jiaozhou, is hundreds of miles of mountains and plains from east to west, but to the south, the land belonging to Jiaozhou is already a long and narrow strip, close to the coast and high mountains, "Here in the Tang Dynasty's Annan Metropolitan Protectorate, it was the boundary of Yuzhou and Aizhou, with the Guluo River and Fulin, the predecessor of Zhancheng, as the boundary. Although Cochin was conquered several times, the national border was basically stabilized here. ”

"That is, the old frontier of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and it will not give up an inch of land." Li Xian is also arrogant, "If you dare to offend China, even if it is thousands of miles away, you should send the king to kill it!" ”

Zhang Dian stood up and waved his arms vigorously, "First distribute the land of each family, and after the division is completed, Zhancheng ignores Ben Shuai's letter, and refuses to withdraw from the land they occupy, so he immediately selects the elite to send troops to the Buddha Oath City!" ”

The meeting on the distribution of land was basically considered smooth, and although everyone wanted to get an extra point, Zhangdun and Hangang were in the field, and many disputes were already over before they had even begun. After ten days of hustle and bustle, the final distribution plan was finally finalized.

The largest land in which the gold is fully divided is in the south of Cochin, stretching from Thanh Hoa to the border, and is thousands of miles away from Quang Yuan Prefecture. However, along with him, the eleven tribes that received the most land lived in groups of threes and twos, and there were tribes of the same size around them, holding each other back.

The core area around Haimen and Hanoi is the territory of a small tribe, scattered with dozens of families, and the dogs and teeth are staggered. Such an arrangement can make any family have a bad heart, they must first worry about whether their neighbors will stab them in the back.

These assignments were done on maps and sand tables, and there was not much accuracy to speak of, but using the boundary markers that were originally divided into prefectures and counties in Jiaozhi would not cost too much energy to confirm the boundaries and recruit the next and lower cadres of the Division.

Champa did not withdraw from the land they had occupied, but the king of Champa offered a lot of gold and silver goods, hoping to acquiesce with a hint of luck. However, the number of gold and silver things in the Great Song Dynasty was more, but they would not give up the land for money.

Under such circumstances, Yanda led the army out of battle, not by land, but by waterway, and it took three days to reach the southern border and disembark there. At the same time, adhering to the order of the Economic Strategy Recruitment Division, the allied forces of the various departments of Jiaozhou moved south, and the two sides worked together to wipe out all the troops occupying the south of Jiaozhou. Before Yan Da could return to the south to invade and occupy the city, and take down the royal capital, the king of Zhancheng was already frightened, and personally brought people and property to beg for surrender.

After Zhang Dan taught him a lesson, the rulers and the captives were let back, because the delay of this battle was another half a month.

In the past half a month, the new governor of Jiaozhou has also been determined, it is a staff member of Zhang Dian, surnamed Li Mingfeng, in this military operation, as a battalion to join the army, and a lot of merit and hard work have been made. The general judge and the military judge are all officials transferred from Guangxi. As for Haimen Zhixian, Han Gang recommended his staff member Ma Zhu.

In terms of zoning, Haimen Port is a county, and now is the time when everything is in ruins, the land is deserted, and there is a lack of hukou.

After Zhang Dian and Han Gang discussed, they hit the idea on the Han people who were rescued from the Jiaozhi Kingdom. Among them, 2,000 families will move here, distribute land and seeds, and borrow farm tools and cattle from the government, which will be returned with interest after the harvest – basically a copy of the resettlement of migrants everywhere, with little effort.

Jiaozhou will also place a group of new troops trained in Yongzhou, a total of 1,100 people, who will be moved here, including their families.

plus the previous 2,000 Han households, that is to say, Haimen County in Jiaozhou already has 3,000 households. This is already a large county in Guangnan Road, where the number of Han people is scarce.

"I've done everything I need to do, it's almost time to go back."

Zhang Dian has put down Guizhou for half a year, but there is a general judgment to watch, in fact, there is no big problem. But Zhang Dian said that it was not Guizhou, but Tokyo City.

"Let's go to Yongzhou first." Han Gang said, "It's much easier to take a boat to Qinzhou, and it's much easier to walk from there. ”

After entering April, the rain increased again, and Han Gang looked outside, because of the rain, most of the work was temporarily stopped. For a while, there was no possibility of continuing to work. You can also take advantage of this time to return to Yongzhou together.

Zhang Duan nodded, "Zong Gan, they have been resting long enough in prison, and it is time to send them on their way." ”

The last decree has been made.

Although it is impossible to pull up the dead Li Changjie and behead it again, but under the city of Yongzhou and in front of the Loyal and Brave Temple, the generals who had led the army to invade the territory of the Great Song Dynasty would be punished by the Ming Dynasty - it is a pity that the marshals of Guangyuan are too knowledgeable about current affairs, otherwise they will be pulled over to accompany the beheading.

When the sinners who once invaded China were in the places where they had wreaked havoc, they used their lives to atone for their sins. From then on, the south should have been able to maintain peace for twenty or thirty years.
