Farmer of Shu Han

There is a river outside Jincheng City, called Qingyi River.

From this river, you can quickly reach Bodao by boat.

There are two roads in Bodao, one is Nanyi Road, that is, from Bodao to the southeast, you can reach Pingyi County, the seat of the Dudufu, and you can go deep into Zangke County from Pingyi.

Ma Zhong took this path.

There is the Zangke River in Zangke County, which is several miles wide. You can enter Jiaozhou by boat and go directly to Panyu.

The second road is Qin Wuchi Road, starting from Bo Road, crossing Shimen to Zhuti, passing through Wei County, and finally reaching the official road in the Dianchi Lake area.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Tang Meng "chiseled stones to open a pavilion to connect Nanzhong", renovated and expanded Wuchi Road, and strengthened the control of Nanzhong area.

Because this road is at the hub of Zhuti, it is also called Zhuti Road.

The place where Feng Yong wants to plant sugar cane in Nanzhong is basically the county seat connected by these two roads.

And use these two roads as transportation arteries to transport things from Nanzhong.

Without these two paths, everything is nonsense.

In this era when there are no airplanes, trains or even cars, all transportation depends on ships and human and animal power.

Even horse-drawn carriages cannot drive on Wuchidao.

Therefore, in order to increase the transportation capacity of Wuchidao, at least enough animal power is required.

If you want enough animal power, you must have enough livestock, not the one with two legs, but the one with four legs.

Dianma is the best means of transportation in South China, bar none.

Horse breeding is also particular. It is not enough to raise casually. In addition to eating and drinking well, there must be good stallions. Inferior stallions must be castrated to prevent the degeneration of the horse population.

And in the jurisdiction of Zhuti County, the hub of Wuchi Road, there is a county called Tanglang County, which is located in the southwest of Zhuti County and is named after Tanglang Mountain in the territory.

There is a lake at the foot of Tanglang Mountain, named Mahu, and the surrounding area is rich in fine horses.

A very small number of horses are also called dragon foals because they are so handsome.

For example, Meng Huo's mount.

Some people say that there is a dragon in the Mahu Lake in Tanglang County. If you tie the horse by the lake overnight, if you are lucky enough, the dragon in the lake will come out at night and see the horse by the lake. It will have sex with the horse, and the resulting horse will be It is the dragon colt.

With enough manpower, Feng Yong's first thing is to go to Mahu to find a good breed of horse.

Later generations often say that before Zhuge Liang pacified Nanzhong, there were four counties in Nanzhong, but in fact, there should be five counties.

That is, Zangke, Yuexi, Yizhou, Yongchang, plus a Zhu Ti.

Zhuti County is sandwiched between Zangke and Yuexi. To the south of it is Yizhou County. Its seat is Zhuti County, which has five counties under its jurisdiction: Zhuti, Hanyang, Nanguang, Tanglang, and Nanchang.

But Zhuti County is a rather special place. In addition to being the hub of Wuchi Dao, it is also a place where Confucianism flourishes. Many upper-class barbarians will take the initiative to study and practice Chinese, and the ethnic relationship is relatively harmonious.

Zhuti is a well-developed place in Nanzhong, where the Yi people have a high degree of Sinicization. During the Nanzhong barbarian rebellion, most of the barbarians in Zhuti County did not respond to Meng Huo and Gao Ding.

There is only one county exception, and that is Tanglang County, which is located in the southwest of Zhuti County and next to Yueyi.

At that time, Yongkai was entrenched in Tanglang County, echoing Gaoding in the west, and threatening Zhuti County, the seat of Zhuti County in the north.

At the same time, the connection between Zhu Ti and Yizhou County was cut off.

When Meng Huo led the army from Yizhou County to the north, he joined forces with Yong Kai, which shocked Zhuti County three times a day.

Although Tanglang County has returned to the Dahan in name, it is actually a mess.

The southern part of Tanglang County, which Wuchi Road passes through, is easy to say, but in Tanglang County, most of them are close to Yueyi. The Pingmenghuo Rebellion was the first, so Tanglang County did not even appoint a county magistrate.

Of course, even if the county magistrate and county magistrate were really sent, no one would dare to take up the post - if there were not enough people, wouldn't going there be death?

Even if there are enough people to protect and take office, it is not easy.

Being an official under the prime minister of the Han Dynasty doesn't mean that you can get through as long as you can. If you don't make any achievements, will the prime minister think highly of you?

Not only do they look down on you, but if there is any barbarian riot and you can't put it down, then you must be held accountable.

The prime minister of the Han Dynasty is too capable, and the people under his hands are not easy to dawdle.

The prefect of Zhuti County is Li Hui, but Li Hui's main job is to surrender to the governor, and the government is far away in Pingyi, so the person in charge of the county is actually the county magistrate.

The counties in Nanzhong are now in a state of desperation. The reconstruction of order after the war and the elimination of the remnants of the rebels are all achieved overnight.

Although most of the barbarians in Juti County did not respond to the rebellion, it is impossible to say that Juti County was not affected by the rebellion.

Just because of the rebellion, the trade between Nanzhong and Shuzhong was almost cut off. As the main commercial road, Wuchidao suddenly lost the caravans, and the function of Wuchidao was abolished. ?

Therefore, the taxes in Zhuti County have been greatly reduced in recent years.

So Zhang Biao, the county magistrate of Zhuti County, was overjoyed when he heard that Feng Langjun, who had a little bit of power into gold, brought his troops to Zhuti for inspection.

Not only did he personally bring the officials in the county out of the city to greet him, but he also held a banquet in the city of Zhuti County.

"Li Langjun, Dudu Li is the prefect of Zhu Ti. As the governor, I am watching this place for Dudu Li. This time you come, you must take care of the people of Zhu Ti County for Dudu Li."

During the banquet, Zhang Biao first followed Li Yila.

"Zhang Juncheng, this time, I just came with my brother, and I only listen to my brother."

Li Yi was very familiar with the officialdom, and answered very tactfully.

Zhang Biao nodded again and again, and then turned to Feng Yong, "Feng Langjun's name, no one in the big man now knows? Contribute to the establishment of Nanzhong, the revitalization of Hanzhong, and the production of Quyuanli and Ba Niuli. Don't say that you are a member of the same generation, but look at the whole big man. , not many people can do such a big thing.”

"What the prime minister said, the young hero, the queen's praise, the number one young man in the Han Dynasty, is not an exaggeration!"

"Hehe, Zhang Juncheng's reputation is too high, it's just a false name."

Feng Yong hurriedly said modestly.

At the same time, I thought to myself, what does this Zhang man want to do when he flatters me so loudly?

On the contrary, the subordinates in Zhuti County hid their faces when they heard what their parents said. Juncheng, you are a young man who became famous after all. You used to be quite noble, why did you suddenly seem to be a different person today?

Zhang Biao saw that the people under him were a little confused, and cursed in his heart, these idiots!

Who doesn't know that Feng Yongnai is famous for turning stones into gold, and now bringing so many people here to inspect Zhu Ti's farming is an opportunity that others can't ask for.

Look at Li Qiu, the magistrate of Nanxiang County in Hanzhong, he is like an official lying on gold.

If Feng Yong can reach out to give Zhu Ti a hand, not to mention how much money he can make, even his political achievements will be enough to fill his stomach. At that time, even in front of the prime minister, he will be more confident than others.

Not to mention that Feng Guiwang has a reputation in Nanzhong that can stop children from crying at night. If he can use his reputation to frighten those barbarians in Tanglang County, that would be the best thing.

Seeing the boss above his head keep gesticulating with his eyes, someone below finally reacted.

Someone said loudly, "Why is Feng Langjun so self-effacing? Among other things, even in Nanzhong, Feng Langjun is also famous among the barbarians. I heard that Meng Huo was once frightened by Feng Langjun. Retreat hundreds of miles in a row. Does anyone in Nanzhong know the name of the ghost king?"

Feng Yong's face froze when he heard this, will he be flattering?

If you don't know how to shoot, don't shoot randomly! Did you slap Lao Tzu on the leg of the horse?

He looked at the person who spoke, and asked with a smile on his face, "May I ask who this is?"

Seeing that Feng Langjun had noticed him, the man got up flattered and saluted, "Help me, I'm the Sima of Zhuti County Army."
