After pacifying most of Yangzhou, Liu Ke sent Xun You to Lujiang to give an ultimatum to the prefect Lu Kang.
He himself took Guo Jia and Dian Wei to visit Yangzhou and visit celebrities.
Sure enough, in Jianye, they found out about the residence of a person who the people were full of praise for.
Several people drove a carriage and rushed to that house, intending to try the master's fortune.
When we arrived, we were surprised. It was a small bamboo house, but it really couldn¡¯t be called a big house.
Seeing that the fence gate was open and there was no one in the yard, Dian Wei jumped out of the carriage and knocked on the door.
"Is there anyone inside?"
"Who is making noise in front of a certain mansion?" A low voice came from inside the bamboo building.
With a squeak, the door of the bamboo tower opened. When Mi Heng saw Xu Chu, he couldn't help being disappointed and said: "Common people, leave quickly!"
When Liu Ke saw this guy, he was a little discouraged. This guy had a bad mouth, so it was best not to have anything to do with him.
When the restaurant first opened, it was Mi Heng who made him famous and the sorghum wine became a big hit. Later, Liu Ke sent someone to give him a lot of wine, which was regarded as repaying the favor.
Guo Jia was very interested and asked first, "Can you drink?" He raised the wine bottle in his hand.
Mi Heng looked at Guo Jia with some surprise and said, "Is that enough?"
Guo Jia nodded, glanced at Liu Ke, and replied: "I don't dare to say anything else, I must have enough wine!"
Liu Ke holds his forehead, is it necessary to beat around the bush if you want to drink?
Mi Heng left the door open.
Liu Ke smiled bitterly and followed Guo Jia in, only to see that Mi Heng had already been sitting on the floor with the two of them, clinking glasses and drinking.
"Zhang Hong of Guangling, whose courtesy name is Zigang."
"Pengcheng Zhang Zhao, courtesy name Zibu."
"Greetings to Yangzhou Mu!" The two stood up at the same time and saluted.
Mi Heng was stunned and called out "boring"!
If I had known that these people were of high status, I would not have opened the door.
"There is no Yangzhou Shepherd here, only Yangzhou Liu Dingfang." Liu Ke punished himself with a drink.
"My lord, you stole someone's wine to drink! It's unkind!" Guo Jia took Liu Ke's wine flask, filled himself with a glass, and said respectfully, "This is Guo Jia, whose courtesy name is Fengxiao."
Guo Jia¡¯s naughty move made the atmosphere relaxed and happy.
"Liu Dingfang of Yangzhou is indeed a wonderful man. Since he is a friend visiting, we should have a drink with him!" Mi Heng laughed.
Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong also let go of their restraints, and everyone was chatting and laughing.
Yangzhou herdsmen no longer put on airs, do they still dare to put on a bad face?
Liu Ke was in a good mood. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong later became important ministers of the Wu State, both of whom were talented in internal affairs reaching 95 or above.
So he smiled lightly and said:
¡°I¡¯ve heard about these two wise men a long time ago, and I¡¯m so lucky to meet them today!¡±
The two of them bowed their hands in return.
Mi Heng, however, inquired deeply and said, "If I dare to ask, where did the guest hear about it"
Liu Ke secretly complained, why he had forgotten this person, and smiled.
Mi Heng laughed loudly and said: "It's just a joke, guests don't blame me! I will punish myself with three drinks!"
From then on, after a day of chatting, Liu Ke took Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong under his command, but only Mi Heng refused because he yearned for freedom.
Xun You also received news that Lu Kang, the governor of Lujiang, had surrendered but refused to serve.
At this point, the whole territory of Yangzhou was peaceful.
Liu Ke has more talents under his command. During this period, Zhou Xin of Danyang, Yu Fan of Kuaiji, Xu Jing of Wujun, and Hua Xin of Yuzhang surrendered and became loyal to Liu Ke.
There are three generals: Chen Heng, Zhang Ying and Fan Neng.
Liu Ke naturally doesn't like these people with ability values ??around 60 or 70, but it really wouldn't work without them.
In order to improve the rule of Yangzhou, Liu Ke appointed the highest officer of each county as the prefect, commanding the entire county, and the second officer as the governor, commanding the military and subject to the control of the prefect.
Zhang Zhao, the prefect of Kuaiji, was in charge of Guan Hai and had a garrison of 10,000.
The governor of Yuzhang Zhang Hong, the commander-in-chief Liao Hua, and the garrison of 10,000.
Zhou Xin, the prefect of Wu County, and Mi Fang, the governor, had a garrison of 10,000.
Yu Fan, the prefect of Danyang, and Zangba, the commander-in-chief, had a garrison of 10,000.
Xun You, the prefect of Lujiang, and Gao Shun, the commander-in-chief, and the garrison of 10,000 + 5,000 were trapped in the camp.
Mi Zhu, the governor of Jiujiang, Gan Ning, the commander-in-chief, and the garrison of 10,000 + 10,000 Chishui camp.
Lu Su, the governor of Guangling, does not have a governor for the time being, but has a standing garrison of 20,000.
Jiujiang is close to Runan, Yuan Shu¡¯s territory, so Liu Ke pays more attention to defense. The same goes for Lujiang, which also controls the route to Jingzhou.road.
The total number of defenders in various places totaled 80,000, and the establishment of the trapped camp and Chishui camp still belonged to the Dongyang Army.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Liu Ke added a new establishment to the Tiger Guard Army. In other words, the Tiger Guard Army separated from the Dongyang Army and became an independent establishment.
Tiger Guard General Zhao Yun commanded 30,000 Tiger Guard troops, with Chen Heng, Zhang Ying, and Fan Neng as his captains.
The Tiger Guard is an army with relatively balanced development, completely different from the Dongyang Army.
The Dongyang Army now has several major camps. In addition to the trapped camp and Chishui camp, there are also the following:
Dongyang Cavalry Camp, commanded by Tai Shici, has 15,000 men.
The heavy cavalry camp, commanded by Zhang He, has 5,000 men.
Shesheng camp, commander Huang Zhong, has 10,000 people.
The Guards Camp, commanded by Dian Wei, has five thousand men.
Fifty thousand people in total.
Therefore, after Liu Ke occupied Yangzhou, his military strength increased sharply to 160,000, and his taxpayer population was approximately two million.
Why is the population so small?
We take the Three Kingdoms in official history as an example.
Wei: 1.03 million households, 4.43 million people, 600,000 soldiers
Shu: 280,000 households, 940,000 population, 102,000 soldiers
Wu: Number of households: 523,000, population 2.3 million, soldiers 230,000
But when fighting, why can hundreds of thousands of troops be used casually?
This is because the tenants, tribes and tribes protected by the aristocratic families, as well as the people who are not included in the household registration statistics, such as villagers, military households, official households, runaway households, missing households, hidden households, and ethnic minorities living in Han areas, etc., have reached 2,000 Thousands.
The family is awesome!
Mi Zhu is just a wealthy and powerful person in Xuzhou. His family has tens of thousands of tenants, which is comparable to a county, and they don¡¯t have to pay taxes.
Therefore, the forces that were able to carry out complete land reform in ancient China were the best developed.
It is also possible that the family will rebound and be crushed to death.
According to Liu Ke¡¯s estimate, Yangzhou¡¯s population is about three million. The ability to count a population of two million is due to Liu Ke registering nearly one million people in Dongyang.
Therefore, Dongyang is Liu Ke¡¯s base camp, and he has never forgotten this.
After Liu Ke occupied Yangzhou, Tao Qian of Xuzhou and Liu Biao of Jingzhou both sent congratulatory letters. Liu Ke took the opportunity to send envoys to rebuild trade routes with the two families. Suddenly, business in the three states was revitalized and the economy developed rapidly.
Of course, the one who earns the most is Liu Ke. Glass craftsmanship is deeply loved by aristocratic plutocrats, especially mirrors, which are a must-have in every household. Grain and salt are small profits but quick turnover. However, the customer base is stable and it is difficult not to make money.
Now Liu Ke¡¯s enemies are the natives of Jiaozhou and Yuan Shu of Runan. He did not plan to move them immediately, but first waited for Yangzhou to be stable.
For a time, Yangzhou became a pure land in the world.
Driven by the industrialization of Tieniu City, Dongyang has also become prosperous, and people's living standards have been greatly improved.
With enough food and clothing, they worked hard to move bricks, pushing the expansion of Dongyang to the end.
At this moment, Butler Liu excitedly found Liu Ke and reported an extremely exciting news.
