Occupying Jiangdong allowed Yingbu to soar into the sky, from a small force living in a corner to a separatist force comparable to Qin, Chu, Wei, Changsha, and South Vietnam.

After the Western Chu Kingdom suddenly lost its foundation in Jiangdong, it only retained ten counties around Pengcheng: Dongjun, Dangjun, Chenjun, Sishuijun, Xuejun, Langyajun, Qijun, Donghaijun, Jibeijun, and Jiaodongjun.

It has been greatly reduced, and what is even more serious is that these places have gone through years of war and most of the people have been displaced. If the Chu State wants to revitalize, it is absolutely impossible without the people and accumulated wealth.

Xiang Yu, who was on the sick bed, was furious after hearing the news of the fall of Jiangdong. He wanted to stand up and lead the Chu army to the south to conquer Tingbu, but he didn't want his eyes to turn black for a moment, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, turning it red.

On the side and front.

Only when people are unlucky can their hearts be revealed.

Xiang Yu's favored five beauties from Jiangdong no longer wanted to please Xiang Yu. These beauties could be entertained by singing and dancing, but it was obviously not their strong point to let them serve patients.

Yu Ji, who had been neglected for many days, appeared at the most suitable time when Xiang Yu needed her most. This weak woman from Yu was like a locust tree that would not fall no matter how much it blew, piercing its roots deeply into the soil.

Among them, flowers blooming everywhere quietly release their own unique fragrance.

Such a woman met a reckless man like Xiang Yu.

I have to say, this is really the result of creation.

The Western Chu State was struggling to protect itself, which made Yingbu even more arrogant. In September, Jiujiang's bandit army swept across the entire Kuaiji County. Yingbu then established his own country and named the country Chu. According to Yingbu, Lu Ze and others,

The orthodoxy of Chu State no longer belongs to Xiang Yu, but should be inherited by them.

As a result, two Chu states emerged on the land of the original Chu state. The Chu regime established by Xiang Yu was collectively called Western Chu, and the Chu regime established by Yingbu was called Eastern Chu.

October 1st.

Yingbu moved his capital to Moling and officially restored his original name: Yingbu. At the same time, the Eastern Chu army began to train its navy on the bank of the river, and prepared its troops and horses in preparation for marching north.

——.

These drastic changes within the Chu State are dizzying and dizzying.

However, for Li Yuan, who was thousands of miles away, the battle between Yingbu and Xiang Yu could only be a show of excitement at best. Otherwise, he would send secret agents to the Jiangdong area to collect some intelligence for the purpose of recovering these places in the future.

The Qin State successfully conquered the territory of Yan. While expanding its territory, it also brought many difficulties to the governance work. In this era, the restrictions on transportation conditions meant that the time for the decree to be on the road was far longer than the time for implementation.

Often the edicts issued by the imperial court have been implemented in the Guanzhong area for several months, but in Yandi, Hexi and other places, they have just begun to be implemented.

For the same reason, the appointment, dismissal and appointment of officials are also difficult. An official sent by the central government has to reach these border counties. Unless it is like an army marching, using fast horses to travel day and night, otherwise, it is normal for two or three months to be on the road.

It takes time. This situation is very detrimental to the development of Qin.

Rebuild the Chi Road.

Reopening the "highway" to the thirty-six counties in the world that the First Emperor vigorously promoted became an urgent issue for the development of the Qin State.

In addition to roads, there are also many other internal affairs. As the Qin army occupied newly annexed areas one after another, the three carriages of Qin's internal affairs: Prime Minister Chen Ping, Tingwei Menghu, and Yushi doctor Li Zhengye

Then I got busy, of course, this is a happy trouble,

What they need to worry about is who to send to these places. The appointment of this candidate is very critical, because according to the laws of the Qin State, once a subordinate official is involved in corruption or rebellion, the superior official who promoted and recommended him will also have to bear the responsibility.

Responsibility, severe ones may even lead to imprisonment.

This kind of government order derived from Legalist theory was implemented coldly and without any emotion, but it was precisely because of this system that all internal affairs of the Qin State could be carried out in an orderly manner.

For Chen Ping, Meng Hu, Li Zheng and other senior officials of the Qin State Central Committee, they have always been short of manpower around them in recent years. After finally cultivating one, he was sent to a new place in the blink of an eye. This

This kind of tension and urgency made Chen Ping and others like a fast horse that kept accelerating. Although they tried hard and whipped again and again, they still couldn't keep up with the pace of Qin's expansion.

Therefore, after hearing the news that the Qin army occupied Yan for the first time, Chen Ping and others were not elated, but their faces became numb for a while, and then they all lamented loudly. Several people gathered together during the court meeting to discuss the matter.

It's not about anything else, but asking the other party if they have the kind of super talent who can do several things by themselves.

Where is the talent?

Of course, among the people, in the countryside, and in unknown corners, fortunately, as the Qin State became stronger, the number of people who were against Qin and hated Qin was slowly decreasing. Through the recommendation of the elders in the countryside, Guandong people began to hold official positions in various counties.

It increased. This is a good sign. It shows that people in the old places like Zhao, Han and Wei once again began to accept the Qin State and recognized the new Qin regime under Li Yuan from the bottom of their hearts.

After experiencing the surging anti-Qin wave, many people of insight began to calm down, thinking about what the destructive military conquest had brought to the people, and thinking about why the Qin State was able to rise again in a short period of time.

——.

October.

A familiar name was appointed as Qin's exclusive official in charge of roads: Li Shang.

This former general of the Han Dynasty and the brave general of Liu Bang's Western Expedition finally came out of hiding after living in seclusion for nearly a year. At the beginning, Li Shang's determination to go into seclusion was not firm in the first place. He just couldn't lose face for a while. After all,

, cousin Li Shiqi died indirectly in the hands of Li Yuan.

But now, times have changed.

At the beginning, those who might have laughed at Li Shang either died or lived in seclusion, or fled to the Jiangdong area and followed Yingbu to engage in robbing houses.

The Qin State dominated the Central Plains and accounted for more than half of the thirty-six counties in the world. Li Yuan, the Shenwuhou of the Qin State, repeatedly created the myth of being undefeated on the battlefield. What's more important is that Li Yuan was young enough, even Xiang Yu was already

He was thirty years old, but Li Yuan was only twenty-four.

It is better to bully the old than the young.

Seeing that the unification of the Qin State will be completed in a few years, if Li Shang continues to live in the Qingyang Palace in the capital of Shu, Li Shang will really have no chance to get ahead. By then, the Li family may really have no hope.
Chapter completed!
