After Song Chen left, Lantian himself went to the military zone under the scorching sun.

Gao Shun officially resigned as the commander-in-chief of the trapped army. Apart from occasionally going to Huben Wutang to check the preparations, he spent most of his time working in the military bureau.

"Sir, aren't you resting at home in the afternoon? Why are you here? If you need anything, just ask Gao Yuan to call me." Gao Shun hurriedly greeted him.

"I have something to discuss with you." Lan Tian walked in, pulled out a chair and sat down, and then briefly told Shi Xie's plot against him.

Gao Shun sat next to Lan Tian, ​​stroking his beard and frowning: "When Boyang and I were passing by Jiaozhi, we heard that Shi Xie was old and bedridden, and his son Shi Hui was also closed up because of sores on his back. No matter whether they came or went, they

They are all very enthusiastic, and there is no such malicious intent at all. Is it possible that the letter is a forgery?"

Lantian shook his head and replied: "The Shijia family has used the channels of the Us brothers for a long time to pass news over the years, so the letter should be genuine. Maybe the Shijia father and son are pretending to be ill."

"It's understandable that Shi Hui pretended to be ill. Shi Xie is already eighty-five years old this year. He could pass away at any time at this age, right?" Gao Shun pinched his chin and analyzed.

Lan Tian smiled leisurely and was noncommittal. Shi Xie lived nearly ninety years old in history, which seemed incompatible with the era of the Three Kingdoms, so Gao Shun's guess was understandable.

"Whether his father and son are pretending to be ill or not, I also plan to deal with the scholar's family problem." Lan Tian raised his eyes.

"Didn't you tell me before that Shi Xie didn't have a few years to live and planned to use Shi Zhi to complete the peaceful evolution? Besides, he also alienated Sun Quan..." Gao Shun looked puzzled.

The corner of Lan Tian's mouth rose: "Sun Quan is busy fighting Cao Pi, and he shouldn't be able to take care of us in the short term. Besides, Wuchang is guarded by Gan Xingba. If Soochow wants to continue backstabbing, it can only go overland. Send an order to Xi Zhen and Mi Fang to strengthen border defense. Lu

If Dai wants to invade, he can only go through Longchuan..."

Gao Shun sneered and shook his head: "The land army in Jiangdong is nothing to be afraid of. Now that General Sha and Governor Yu are stationed in Rinan, the remaining barbarians in Guangzhou can be transferred to Longchuan to garrison, but a leader must be selected from them to lead the troops.

"

"I told you that the Jiangdong rats are not available now, and our defense is too tight. How could Sun Quan take the initiative to send us off?" Lan Tian smiled mysteriously.

"Over at the Shi family, what are you going to do?" Gao Shun saw Lan Tian's smile and realized instantly. He knew that Lan Tian was planning to set another trap for Sun Quan. Sun Quan was always ahead of his enemies, so how could he have a chance to win?

"Isn't Shi Xie sick? You can help him by adding fuel to the fire, but you have to complete the preliminary layout first." Lan Tian nodded lightly.

"How to lay it out?" Gao Shun asked.

Lantian twirled his beard and said: "Military is the continuation of politics. Only with the deterrence of strong force can it be possible to defeat the enemy without fighting. You write a letter to Shamoko in the name of the soldier, so that the war elephant army can go back and forth between various places."

The declaration of force in the city will help Nichinan quickly return to a peaceful life, and he can occasionally show his face outside Hengshan Pass..."

"Use the war elephant army to patrol various places? I'm afraid it's still in the tame stage. It's better to go to Jiaozhi with the trapped army a few more times..." Gao Shun frowned.

"Bo Ping can rest assured that General Sha has surrendered the Fan brothers. Since some of them are already able to participate in the war, it is no problem to mobilize dozens of elephants to patrol. The purpose is not to force the war elephants to immediately go into battle, but to make the family members feel the pressure.

That's all..." Lan Tian explained.

Gao Shun clasped his fists and nodded, "I'll make arrangements right away. Do you have any other arrangements, sir?"

Lan Tian continued: "In the name of Bing Cao, Li Yi was appointed as the governor of Dan'er, and all the Jiaozhou navy was transferred to Dan'er port for garrison. In addition, the combat navy was expanded to 10,000 people, and the transport navy was expanded to 5,000."

"Governor Dan'er? Shouldn't it be under the control of Cao? Will Cao overstep his authority by sending troops?" Gao Shun reminded.

Lan Tian replied: "The governor of Dan'er is a temporary military position, so there is no need to go through the process of being an official. Zhuya, where Dan'er is located, is a good place. I will advise the king to restore the county system in the future."

Gao Shun said meaningfully: "The southwest of Zhuya can support Rinan County, the northwest can monitor Hepu, Jiaozhi, and Jiuzhen counties, and the northeast is connected to Guangzhou City. The strategic location is indeed important. Sir, I want to increase the weight of the Jiaozhi navy. If it is true,

To attack the Shi Xie family, the warships at Dan'er Military Port travel along the long coastline and can attack any city in the three counties. If they cooperate with the trapped army to attack from the land, Shi Xie will have almost no power to fight back."

"This is the real 'soldier that conquers the enemy without fighting'. Only with strong force behind you can you have enough say in politics." Lan Tian stroked his beard to explain.

"Shi family members are particularly good at living in an ignoble way. What if the other party remains unmoved despite our military deterrence?" Gao Shun asked.

"The initiative is in our hands. The Shi family is unmoved and is filling up the levels. I think that after Li Yi's navy expands, the Dan'er military port will also be expanded accordingly, allowing Li Yi to set up checkpoints at the military port to monitor the incoming and outgoing people.

Jiaozhi's merchant ships collect shipping taxes, which can increase prices in Longbian and other places..."

"I think Cochin and other places are rich and can be completely self-sufficient. If the price of shipping by sea is too high, can the scholars ban sea shipping?"

When Lan Tian heard Gao Shun's answer, he shook his head and sighed: "Humanity is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Over the years since Jiaozhi and Guangzhou have been open to navigation, whether it is salt, seafood and other basic necessities of life, or tables and chairs

, benches, farm tools, clothes and other items have all formed a close connection with Guangzhou. It would be very uncomfortable to cut off contact rashly. This is the so-called human nature..."

"Is it human nature? Although I don't understand it very well, sir, you must be right." Gao Shun nodded.

"Shi Xie is eighty-five years old. His two brothers, Shi Yi and Shi?, are not too young either. It is time for them to return to their hometown after becoming wealthy. I plan to start from Hepu or Jiuzhen and replace his two brothers with newly appointed prefects.

, Shi 1, Shi? If you know the current affairs, you can allocate some land to them in Cangwu's hometown for their retirement. This will be considered as cutting off Shi Xie's wings. If the two brothers do not obey the orders, they will be against me." Lan Tian smiled coldly.

"Who is the governor?" Gao Shun asked.

"Shi Zhi has been very diligent in governing in Guangzhou for several years. In addition, I plan to let Peng Yongnian (Peng Yi) take over the next term." Lantian replied, stroking his beard.

After Liu Bei became the pastor of Yizhou, Peng Yi became arrogant and conceited because of his merits. Zhuge Liang did not like his moral behavior. Liu Bei listened to Zhuge Liang's advice to alienate Peng Yi and demoted Peng Yi to the position of prefect of Jiangyang (Luzhou) and sent Yi out.

Chengdu, the political center of the state, later became an official in Jiaozhou under the recommendation of Fei Shi.

Lantian gave Peng Yi a state to do some leisure work, and he usually worked under Jiang Wan. This may be because he was far away from his hometown in Yizhou, or because the environment in Jiaozhou was pleasant. Peng Yi's depressed mood was relieved, and he often felt reluctant to miss Shu here.

Feeling.
