Liu Feng, who was far away near Wuxi Snake City, naturally couldn't hear Sun Quan's resentment. However, even if you hear it, you don't care.

Jiangdong has blue eyes, and only has the ability to keep his own one-third of an acre.

Throughout history, Sun Quan has never been to Xuzhou in his life. Koto, too frustrated.

Five Creeks is a place surrounded by mountains, but there are also several small plains. There are some cities and cultivated land on the plains, and the environment is somewhat similar to that of Yizhou.

The same mountain road is bad, and there are plains in the same place. Even the plains and water conservancy irrigation are not as good as Sichuan, so the Wuxi people in all dynasties are very weak and not enough to confront the Han people.

Since Pang Tong defeated the army of the three counties, Liu Feng stayed in Changsha for a while, waiting for Xu Shu, Zhao Yun and the others to arrive with their respective retinues, gathered the army of the three counties, and expanded the army.

After Xu Shu received and surrendered his troops, he began to camp in Gong'an, as one of the three important military camps of Jiangxia forces.

Huang Zhong, Pang Tong, Xu Shu. Each has its own territory and resists pressure from the east and the north.

And when he was in Changsha, Liu Feng officially sent Xu Tian, Zhang Dao, and Liu Mi into the three counties and began to gather the forces of the three counties. Because there were too many prisoners, Liu Feng allowed the three counties to have their own defenders, with 2,000 personnel.

There was Changsha outside, Jiangxia was in the way, and Liu Feng felt that 2,000 people were enough to guard the place.

In addition, Liu Feng also received news from Deng Ai's side. also heard that Deng Ai had been in a coma due to fatigue, and Liu Feng originally wanted to take Deng Ai back to Jiangxia to recuperate.

But thinking that being a general will always be injured and will always have to work hard, Deng Ai is a genius, and sooner or later he will be an invincible general. I couldn't always give special attention, so I gave up on the idea.

However, Liu Feng still expressed his importance to Deng Ai and gave him a lot of gold, silver, and cloth. to affirm Deng Ai's role in this war.

In the end, Pang Tong and Huang Zhong also gathered some of their descendants, restored their full state, and returned to their respective stations.

After about two months of sorting, Liu Feng has basically digested everything he got from this war, the forces, the city, and the soldiers.

Officially owned the vast territory, Changsha, Guiyang, Lingling, Wuling, Jiangxia, Jiujiang, Wuxi. A super-dense population of 2.5 million. The army, which was the main battle, also reached 75,000 men. The inflated forces have steadily surpassed the Jiangdong line.

Originally, Liu Feng should also return to Xiling, start operating General Yang Wu's mansion, and start distributing food to the newly received forces for disaster relief.

But Liu Feng didn't do that.

He came to Wuxi County, which has only five small cities but a population of 400,000. The population of this part is all people of various ethnic groups in Wuxi. After this war, there was a hatred for the Han people.

Because 10,000 barbarians died under the sword of the Han Chinese.

Therefore, Liu Feng sent Ma Liang to be the county guard of this place, and temporarily sent Shamoke over, along with 10,000 barbarians under Shamoke.

I believe that Imalian's ability and Shamoko's deterrent power are enough to carry out the plan to annex the Wuxi people.

In addition, Liu Feng also began to give orders to escort the 30,000 barbarian soldiers over, and began to forge mountain roads, which played a role in the communication between Wuxi and Wuling, and further promoted the sinicization of the Wuxi people.

However, the reason why Liu Feng came to Wuxi was not to see the transformation of Wuxi. If you are weak and the power is weak, it is a very energetic thing to transform backward and barbaric places.

Because it can increase power.

But now it's completely unnecessary, he just needs to let Ma Liang do it. Wuxi is not the main force of Liu Feng's forces at present.

The reason why Liu Feng came here was that Ma Liang had discovered three large iron mines, five small iron mines, one small gold mine, and three large silver mines in Wuxi.

In addition to this, there are copper mines. This was an accident, and Liu Feng didn't expect that Wuxi's resources would be so abundant. It's just that Ma Liang thinks that unexplored wild areas may have unexpected benefits, so he brought an expert who is good at prospecting over.

Ever since the discovery of an iron mine, it has been out of control.

After Liu Feng heard Ma Liang's official document, he immediately rushed over.

Resource. It has always been the reason for suppressing Liu Feng's development, because Jiangxia, Changsha, Wuling, Lingling, Guiyang, Jiujiang and other places have always been places with scarce resources.

Unlike Jiangdong, the mountains stretch and countless minerals can be explored.

Therefore, Liu Feng's speed of making Chu knives has not been able to go up, although he extorted hundreds of thousands of catties of iron from Sun Quan last time, but I believe that it will soon be exhausted.

Therefore, the discovery of iron ore in Wuxi is of great significance to Liu Feng.

The Great Snake City is the royal city of Shamohun in the past, and it is also the largest city in the Wuxi area. Nearby is a plain, which can be cultivated.

At this moment, in the stretching mountains and forests of more than 60 miles west of the Great Snake City, countless barbarian soldiers, under the command of the soldiers, dug mountain roads.

Liu Feng, Ma Liang, and Chen Da and others stood on a mountain peak, the peak was not high, but it was very extensive, enough to store iron ore.

In front of Liu Feng and them, a cave mouth was being dug out, and inside the cave entrance, there were some wooden things, supporting the cave entrance.

It's an iron mine.

However, no one is mining iron ore in it at the moment.

Because all the laborers went to open the way under Liu Feng's order. It is very simple to dig iron ore on this long mountain road, but the problem is how to transport the iron ore out.

As a later generation, Liu Feng knows that if you want to get rich, you must first open the way.

"My lord, there are so many mineral deposits in the vicinity, and I believe that there are many more mineral deposits in this stretching mountain. It is necessary to send more prospecting old people to step up construction. This barbarian land of Wuxi will provide a steady stream of resources for the lord. Looking at the mine in front of him, Ma Liang's eyes were very hot.

"It's nature." Liu Feng turned his head and smiled at Ma Liang.

"And that's not all." After a pause, Liu Feng smiled at Ma Liang and said, "I also want to move many craftsmen who make Chu knives here." It is too troublesome to transport the iron ore out, so it is better to transport the finished Chu knife out. ”

"Ore, refining, finished products. This Wuxi County is our military industrial base after Jiangxia. Liu Feng stretched out his arms and said with a smile.

Wuxi is a mountainous place, and although it is possible to build mountain roads, it is difficult to transport them. The royal road to development is to establish a military industrial base.

Bring everything to the blacksmith here and do it directly. Transporting the finished product to Jiangxia is much simpler.

"My lord, this will take time." Ma Liang shook his head and said.

Now the situation in Wuxi is relatively strange, and more than 30 tribes are very vigilant about the entry of the Han people.

The current Shamoke can only be barely deterred.

This was not possible, because Liu Feng's original plan was to emigrate from each other, disperse the population of Wuxi, and expand the entry of Han Chinese.

But the current situation is not good, according to Ma Liang, you have to take your time.

And in the absence of Han people, it is very dangerous to build a Chu knife in the Great Snake City. If the entire Wuxi tribe rebels, attack the Great Snake City, and then, snatch the Chu Dao.

The consequences can be severe.

In addition, Ma Liang has another concern, that is, Shamoke. Ma Liang is an orthodox Han Chinese, no better than Liu Feng, and he is worried that after Shamoke stays in Wuxi for a long time, he will breed ambitions. Cause unrest.

Liu Feng can understand Ma Liang, however, he will not think that Shamoke will rebel. Because Liu Feng knew that even if Shamoke didn't rely on this big change, he would be able to become the king of Fan more than ten years later.

Shamoke defected to him just because his heart was for the Han people, so simple. However, Liu Feng is sympathetic to Ma Liang, and his heart is not the same as that of my race.

"Migration has to be done quickly. Wuxi has a population of 400,000, and it is necessary to remove 200,000 people, and then move 200,000 Han people from Wuling, Lingling, and Guiyang. Liu Feng said categorically.

"But I'm afraid it's going to cause a backlash, those barbarians are just too unruly." Maleonn expressed concern.

Today's Ma Liang is no longer the little person he was at the beginning. The period of controlling Jiujiang has exercised his ability.

With a long-term vision.

"Don't mind." Liu Feng's eyes were cold, and he sneered: "Unruly? Then let them know that the reality is cruel. They are not Han Chinese, and they are not yet. Now it is our Han people who have defeated their barbarians and want to annex the barbarians entirely. Their warriors are digging mountain roads for us Han Chinese, and their royal family is my general. So, repression, with blood to suppress. ”

"I'm going to quickly build a military base to support me on the expedition." Liu Feng stared at Ma Liang and said word by word: "Do whatever it takes to do this." ”

Gold, silver, copper and iron, rich in mineral deposits. Let Liu Feng's patience seriously decline. Cao Ying will go south next winter, less than eight months.

Liu Feng expands his strength and constantly expands his strength. And large-scale equipment Chu Dao is the best way to improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

The current Liu Feng himself is fighting with the Han people and playing against the princes. For the barbarians, Liu Feng has no mercy.

"No." Although Ma Liang prefers a moderate approach, Liu Feng's orders are his responsibility. Hearing this, I had to respond.

"Don't be discouraged, trust in your abilities. After the three counties surrendered, Xu Shu, Zhao Yun, and Pang Tong picked up the strong, there were still thousands of people. I'll prepare 5,000 men and send someone over. In addition to being the county guard of Wuxi, you are also the general of the Wuxi Zhonglang and have the right to lead the troops with reading power. To immigrate quickly, recklessly. Remove the Wuxi people and move the Han people over. Saying that, Liu Feng paused and said: "In addition, I will send some virtuous scholars over, I believe that there are some virtuous and respected people who will be very interested in promoting the culture of the Han people and educating the barbarians." ”

Originally, according to Ma Liang's ability and the situation of Wuxi, it would take decades for immigrants and the sinicization of Wuxi people.

But the discovery of mineral deposits, Liu Feng has to do it overnight.

Forcibly completed within half a year. If you can't use what you say, then use force.

Originally, Ma Liang was a little uncertain about Liu Feng's order. But with the addition of 5,000 Han Chinese troops. Maleonn's confidence was much more sufficient.

Bow down and say, "Thank you, lord"

"Hmm. I've also seen the minerals, so I'll leave the matter to you here. Your term of office is three years, and after three years, I will recruit you to the General's Palace. Liu Feng said.

This is Liu Feng's promise. In the territory of Wuxi, although immigrants can be achieved overnight. But all kinds of development, countless decades of hard work is impossible.

Liu Feng will not stay here for decades.
