In the prefect's mansion of Kunze City, Zhuge Liang was sitting at the desk with his eyes closed and meditating, not knowing what he was thinking.
It was already the fifth day after the three armies joined forces. The people in Kunze and several nearby counties had settled down. The turbulent situation was basically stabilized. However, putting down the rebellion was only the first step. What was more important was how to govern Nanzhong. .
He had already drafted the strategy for governing Nanzhong, and had discussed it with Ma Di and others before the Southern Expedition. However, after coming to Nanzhong in person, his experience was naturally different from before, and the details needed to be considered carefully.
It is said that one person is a great planner and two people are very short-term. Even though Zhuge Liang has great talents, he is not a god and he also has some imperfections. Therefore, he often warns the officials around him to boldly point out his shortcomings and mistakes. The so-called picking up omissions and filling in gaps is nothing more than this.
Today, Zhuge Liang recalled several discussions with Yang Qing about Nanzhong in the past. He got a lot of inspiration from him, and an important reason why he agreed to let him go to Nanzhong as the governor was to try out the planned governance strategy in Yuexun first.
"Now it seems that the effect is very good, it's time to implement it." Zhuge Liang couldn't help but think.
"Prime Minister, Yang Qing, the governor of Yuexun, has arrived." Yang Yi came in and announced.
"Let him in." Zhuge Liang opened his eyes and smiled. Today he wanted to have a good talk with Yang Qing to see if there was any improvement in his strategy. After all, Yang Qing always had some fantastic ideas.
"Qing has met the prime minister." Yang Qing followed Yang Yi into the public house.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang stood up and said with a smile: "Mingzhi is here, sit down." After that, he said to Yang Yi: "Master Wei, please sit down and chat together."
With his identity, he naturally did not stand up to greet Yang Qing. He actually stood up to move around after sitting for a long time. The three of them were all close, so he was more casual. If he met other people, he must maintain the dignity of a country. .
Yang Qing and Yang Yi, one of whom had been the prime minister's chief clerk, and the other who was now the prime minister joining the army, certainly knew Zhuge Liang's character, so they did not hesitate and sat down calmly.
"It is clear that the three thieves Yong Kai and others have surrendered to justice, and Meng Huo and others have also surrendered. The rebellion in Nanzhong can be said to have been basically put down. Next, we must make proper arrangements for Nanzhong to ensure long-term peace and stability. I have discussed this matter with you before. I have done so many times, and I want to hear your opinion today." Zhuge Liang walked to the door and looked at the scenery of the courtyard outside, turning his back to Yang and Qing and said.
Yang Qing pondered for a moment and replied: "Prime Minister, our country currently only has the territory of Yizhou. The country is small and the people are small. If we want to compete with Wei and Wu, we must vigorously govern Nanzhong.
All the counties in Nanzhong, except Zangqi County, are rich in products. Yizhou County is rich in salt ponds, fields, fisheries, and gold, silver, and livestock products. The land in Yongchang County is fertile and suitable for growing grains and sericulture. And my Yuexun County has flat land and rich rice fields. It can be said that the land of Nanzhong has great potential. As long as the court manages it carefully, it will surely increase the national wealth. "
"Mr. Yang Fu is right. Nanzhong is rich in products, including salt, iron, fish, rice, gold, silver, cattle and horses. If the court manages it properly, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains will definitely benefit from it." Yang Yi also agreed, saying that he also I have done some research on Nanzhong’s property situation.
Zhuge Liang smiled, returned to his seat, picked up a scroll of letters on the table, then walked to Yang Qing and handed it to him: "These are some strategies I have drawn up. Please take a look."
Yang Qing stood up and took it with both hands and read it. He saw that the slip had four outlines: division of counties, Nanshi, immigration, and branch. Each outline was followed by annotations detailing the specific content. After reading it, he felt enlightened, and then handed the slip to Yang Yi.
After the two of them finished reading, Zhuge Liang asked: "What do you think of these four strategies?"
Yang Qing glanced at Yang Yi and saw that he was still thinking, so he said: "Prime Minister, the Qing Dynasty believed that the rebellion in Nanzhong was caused by two major barriers. One was the gap between the Nanzhong scholars and the Sichuan court, and the other was the gap between the barbarians and the Sichuan court. The estrangement between the people of our Han family.
Although there are many barbarians among the people in the south, there are also hundreds of thousands of Han people. The classics and teachings were also spread from Shuzhong and Runan. Although there are fewer scholar-officials than in the north, they are not absent. Of course, most scholars are located in the south. It's just a family with a big surname.
For example, Yongchang County has the major surnames Chen, Zhao, Xie, and Yang; Xianggao County has the major surnames Long, Fu, Yin, Dong, and Wang; Yizhou County has the major surnames Yong, Meng, Huo, and Cuan; Zhuti County has the major surnames Zhu and Lu , Lei, Xing, Qiu, Di, Gao, Li, etc.
These people are in a remote area and are despised by the Shu sergeants. Most of them have talents but do not meet them. Therefore,

The resentment of that generation has been growing for a long time, and they are alienated from Chengdu. This is the first kind of estrangement.
The second kind of estrangement is the contradiction between the barbarians and the Han people, the first of which is the estrangement between the powerful and powerful people. The Han people have been rich for generations, while the barbarians live in poverty.
The Han people occupied the prosperous and fertile land, while the barbarians lived in barren mountains and forests. Naturally, the barbarians would not be willing to accept it in the long run. I think the prime minister's four major strategies can eliminate these two major barriers, and they are really good strategies. "
Zhuge Liang smiled faintly and said: "I know that Ming always has wonderful strategies and implements good government in Yuexi. You can tell me frankly to make up for the omissions in these four strategies."
Zhuge Liang's strategy was already very complete, but Yang Qing really had some ideas to add, and said: "The Qing Dynasty thought that Yuexun was the first priority among the counties in Nanzhong, and the Han people in Yuexun alone accounted for nearly half of the Han people in the entire Nanzhong, and There is a large river valley and plain in the county, which is suitable for farming, and there are also salt and iron. Therefore, if the court can pay attention to it, it will soon be able to make great progress in this area to benefit the country, and later it can be the foundation for the king to transform Nanzhong."
"Well, what Ming said is reasonable. Yuexun connects Hanjia and Qianwei at the top, and leads to Yongchang and Yizhou at the bottom. If it can be managed into a small granary for the imperial court and a place for goods transfer, it will be beneficial to Yuexun itself, the entire Nanzhong and even The country will benefit greatly." Zhuge Liang agreed.
Yang Yi, who had not spoken for a long time, had some objections: "But Prime Minister, after all, Yuexun County is located in the west corner, and it cannot be compared to Yizhou County, which is located in the middle and connects all directions. Therefore, Yi thinks that among the counties in the south, Yizhou County is the focus. appropriate."
Zhuge Liang did not answer when he heard this, but turned to look at Yang Qing with a smile on his face. Yang Qing understood what he meant and replied loudly: "What Yang Canjun said is not unreasonable. The location of Yuexun County is a little to the west. However, the Qing Dynasty thought that the control of Nanzhong could be carried out from two aspects, the first was civil affairs, which could be based on Yue Xun, and the second was military, and Yizhou could be the focus."
After saying that, he raised his hands and said to Zhuge Liang: "Prime Minister, now the people in Nanzhong are well aware of the power of the imperial army. Therefore, the governor's office of Najiang can be moved south from Pingyi County to Yizhou County to strengthen the imperial rule over Nanzhong. .”
Moving to the south and surrendering to the Governor's Mansion was Zhuge Liang's original approach in history. At this moment, he had this plan in mind. Yang Qing's proposal was exactly what he had in mind, so he nodded and said with a smile: "This ritual of Ming Dynasty coincides with mine." !”
Yang Yi had also known for a long time that Zhuge Liang had a plan to move south and surrender to the Governor's Mansion, but he didn't expect Yang Qing to have this idea as well. His understanding of this person's ability today was deeper than before. However, his admiration was also mixed with a little dissatisfaction and a trace of fear that he was not aware of.
"I understand what Mr. Yang is saying." Yang Yi felt incomprehensible in her heart, and she sighed in admiration to Yang Qing with her hands folded on her face.
Yang Qing also bowed his hand in return and continued: "Prime Minister, Yang joined the army. Qing also thought that if Nanzhong is to have long-term peace and stability, it needs to benefit the Han and Yi people. Only when the people return to the court can Nanzhong achieve real long-term peace."
"What's the clever idea?" Zhuge Liang smiled and stroked his beard.
Yang Qing smiled and said: "I can't speak of clever strategies, just some ideas. Prime Minister, Nanzhong is rich in products, but if you want to communicate with Shuzhong, you have to build roads. As the saying goes, if you want to be rich, build it first Road, that’s exactly what it means.”
Nowadays, the land route from Shuzhong to Nanzhong still uses the Wuchi Road, Nanyi Road, Yanniu Road and other roads built during the Qin Dynasty and the Early Han Dynasty. However, at the end of the Later Han Dynasty, the power of the imperial court declined and many road sections were blocked and cut off, which was extremely disadvantageous. Large quantities of goods passed through.
"If you want to get rich, build roads first. This is an interesting saying. No wonder Mingzhi attaches so much importance to opening up the Yanniu Road that leads to the middle of Sichuan." Zhuge Liang repeated Yang Qing's novel statement, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was true. rational.
"Exactly, but this can't be completed in a short time. It requires a long-term plan." Yang Qing smiled bitterly. In this era, building roads in the high mountains and ridges of Nanzhong is not an easy task.
After taking a sip of tea, Yang Qing continued: "The second step is to vigorously promote the curved shaft plow and rollover, so that the production of grain in Nanzhong will be greatly increased. The more important point is that it can attract mountain barbarians to the low hills of the plains. After farming and settling down for a while, we can organize the people into households and increase the population and taxes."
"Well, this makes sense. If you have any other clever ideas, please continue." Zhuge Liang had already thought of promoting farming.
Yang Qingdao: "How can the Qing Dynasty have any clever ideas? It's just the last bit of superficial knowledge. Prime Minister, Yizhou County has a climate that is like spring all year round and turns into winter when it rains. It is most suitable for growing tea. If the imperial court can do this here,

Vigorously promoting tea cultivation can add another livelihood to the people of Nanzhong. In the future, Nanzhong can also participate in the tea-horse trade, strengthening ties with Sichuan and even the north. "..
"Good." Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said happily: "I understand that this method is very wonderful. You can try it."
Zhuge Liang really didn't expect to promote tea cultivation. These days, he has plans to spread the advanced technology of Shu to Nanzhong. However, the people in Nanzhong are mostly barbarians. The pros and cons must be carefully considered, otherwise the barbarians will be harmed. It's not beautiful to have other thoughts.
Now what Yang Qing said about growing tea is harmless. If this move is implemented, it will be a good deed for the court and the people of Nanzhong.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "It seems that I made the right decision to invite Mingzhi here today. Can you tell me, Mr. Wei?"
"What the Prime Minister said is true. Mr. Yang Mansion is really a talented person in governing the world. Today Yi has really benefited a lot." Yang Yi laughed twice and agreed. It was just that he spoke beautifully, but an inexplicable look flashed across his eyes, which showed that he did not really mean it in his heart. However, Zhuge Liang and Yang Qing were chatting happily and did not notice anything unusual about him.
The three of them discussed the matter in Nanzhong for a long time, and did not stop until it was time to eat. Zhuge Liang stayed with the two of them for lunch together, and then talked for a while before letting them leave.
