After the Wu and Yue State established the vassal state, Zhao Ming decided to expand the vassal troops to 300,000.

Among them, the five battalions in front, back, left and right are 30,000, each with one marshal, two left and right governors, and three thousand water camp soldiers, one marshal, and two left and right governors.

These six armies, totaling 180,000 people, will become the Central Army of Wu and Yue Kingdom, and the remaining 120,000 people will become county soldiers stationed in the local areas.

In principle, county soldiers are only responsible for garrisoning the local area and do not fight across borders. However, in special circumstances, they will also conduct recruitment operations.

The Central Army acted as a mobile phone to support all parties and launched an expedition.

In addition to the Central Army and local county soldiers, the Guard Army still maintained it, but it was mainly established in the overseas governor's district. The Guard Army did not receive any salary and also had to pay taxes to the vassal governments every year, which was equivalent to the previous garrison troops.

After establishing the seven major government affairs discussions and establishing a complete administrative system, the military system of Wu and Yue was established as the generals and the flag was awarded.

However, Zhao Ming planned to expand his army to 300,000, but at this time, only 200,000 troops, and half of them were recently reorganized. Although the army was set up, the number of troops was still large. The governor of the Right Army, as well as the deputy governors, generals, and generals of each army were not fully appointed.

As Zhao Ming rectified his own forces, established effective rule over the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, the original situation of opposition between the north and the south is undergoing tremendous changes.

Huguang, Jingzhou Prefecture.

After Wu Sangui withdrew from Sichuan and retreated to Hanzhong, Sun Kewang captured Chengdu and controlled Yunnan, Guizhou and most of Sichuan.

Sun Kewang is different from Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng. He has read some books. He is far stronger than Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong in governing the local area, and even surpasses many officials in the Ming Dynasty. He has his own governance methods and governance concepts.

After driving Wu Sangui away, Sun Kewang defended himself and devoted himself to governing Sichuan and the southwest.

Shu was fertile and rich, with a foundation of kings and dominance. During this period, the Longwu court wanted to restore its rule over Sichuan. He Tengjiao sent his son He Wenrui to lead more than 10,000 people into Dongchuan and to Shu, hoping to represent the Ming Dynasty and take over Shu, but was defeated by Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang followed the generals of the Western Army, "Now the world is turbulent, and the heroes are rising together. I am divided into thousands of miles. The territory is better than that of Liu Bang when he was rising, and it is stronger than Liu Bei of Shu. If you strive to be powerful and virtuous, the overlord's career will be accomplished. Therefore, I should change my name to suppress the people."

After that, Sun Kewang went north and sent Li Dingguo to guard Baoning Prefecture, guard Jiange, Bazhong, and defended Wu Sangui. He also ordered Liu Wenxiu to seize Ba County and Fuling, control most of Chongqing Prefecture, cut off the connection between Shu and Huguang, and separatist Shu.

At that time, because there were strong enemies in the north and the Western Army had just occupied Chengdu, the people were unsupported, and Sun Kewang was worried about being attacked on both sides, so at the insistence of Li Dingguo and others, he accepted the title of the Longwu court and became the King of Xichuan of the Ming Dynasty.

When Sun Kewang became queen in Chengdu, he devoted himself to governing Shu and the southwest, and implemented a strategy of suppressing landlords and gentry, which gradually won the hearts of the people in Shu.

Shu was fertile and had a thousand miles of fertile land, with sufficient soldiers and food. After Sun Kewang drove away Wu Sangui, Shu was stable and there was no war. People in Huguang, Guanzhong and other places heard that Shu was peaceful, so in order to avoid the war, many people moved to Shuzhong.

The chieftains in the southwest were also afraid of Sun Kewang's strength, and sent envoys to Sun Kewang to pay tribute, acknowledging the status of Sun Kewang's lord in the southwest.

In this way, Sun Kewang is prosperous in the southwest, and Xichuan Country is also booming.

Sun Kewang is the only one in Shu. He is the only one in the southwest. He is the only one in the southwest. Unlike the Qing Dynasty, he has to face the Ming army in the south, and there are constant rebellious forces within. It is not like the Ming Dynasty, where there are internal divisions and many hostile forces around him. Sun Kewang is in the southwest, which can be said to be unique.

After several years of dedicated management, Shu has become popular, and Sun Kewang's ambitions are growing.

At this time, Sun Kewang discussed with his subordinates and said, "Now the Central Plains are in chaos, north and south, and people eat each other! People are repeatedly plagued by soldiers, and people are slaughtered, and cities and towns are ruined. Shu land is fertile for thousands of miles, soil is fertile, grain is accumulated in warehouses, and the business of Shu brocade covers the world, huge woods and stones are invincible. There are also the benefits of fish, salt, copper and silver, and the water flows into the water and transfers the grain. Now Gu guards Jiange in the north, Bazhong, guards Bao, and the slant is dangerous, resisting Ba County in the east, covering thousands of miles, and soldiers are not less than one million. If the time is ripe, send troops to seize the land. If the time is not reached, he will stick to the settlement, accumulate grain and equipment, and wait for the opportunity to come out. Gu's army can be seized by Hanzhong in the north, to peek at Qinlong, and to attack Yiling in the east, shake Jing and Yang. At that time, Gu's name will be known in the world, and he will ascend the throne and make the people have a support."

Unlike Zhao Ming's concealment, Sun Kewang expressed his ambition to fight for the world very early on.

However, although Sun Kewang was determined to capture the world, it was not easy for him to fight out in the southwest.

In recent years, as Shu gradually recovered, Sun Kewang's soldiers and horses were strong, with wealth and food, and naturally wanted to do something. However, Wu Sangui was in the north to guard Hanzhong, and the Western Army was difficult to break through. In addition, the Ming and Qing Dynasties discussed peace, and Xichuan, as a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, was not easy to go to war with Wu Sangui, so it was impossible to advance northward. In the east, the Longwu court also refused to defend Yiling and blocked the Western Army's way out of the east, making Sun Kewang able to play by himself in Shu.

This made Sun Kewang very depressed, and often lamented why he had not come yet.

A few months ago, an envoy from the Longwu court came to Chengdu and borrowed troops from Sun Kewang to quell the rebellion of the Zhejiang army. Sun Kewang was overjoyed and thought that his opportunity had come.

The chaos within the Ming Dynasty made the Longwu court irritate the disease and seeking medical treatment. When they found Sun Kewang, they were exactly what Sun Kewang thought.

At this moment, Sun Kewang agreed to the envoy's request, and ordered Liu Wenxiu to lead an army of 50,000. He took the opportunity to rescue Nanjing to take He Wenrui, Qin Yiming and others who were loyal to the Ming Dynasty in eastern Sichuan, and he led an army of 100,000 to control Kuizhou and eastern Chongqing, unify Sichuan, and then left Sichuan to join Liu Wenxiu.

After the Western Army left Sichuan, Fu Shangrui, the governor of Huguang of Longwu court, sent personnel to peek at the truth and found that there were more than 100,000 soldiers in Xichuan, and he was immediately frightened.

Judging from the situation, the Xichuan soldiers did not seem to rescue the Longwu court, but instead seemed to take advantage of the situation to rob. In addition, the officials and gentry class were naturally vigilant against the bandits. Fu Shangrui ordered the supply of the Xichuan soldiers to cut off the supply of the Xichuan soldiers, with the intention of causing the Xichuan soldiers to withdraw some of their people back to Sichuan due to insufficient military and food, leaving tens of thousands of people as front-lifts and act as cannon fodder.
