Chapter 562: Danyang Soldiers

Qin Shuo's life here is very good. Although the generals are relatively tired, this kind of fatigue is also a kind of fulfillment.

They have already developed feelings for this piece of land, so they also want to protect this piece of land. Qin Shuo can understand this kind of thinking.

Anyway, Qin Shuo was going to leave these headaches to them. Now he just needs to accumulate his own strength.

Now the entire Yangzhou also has a few counties, each of which has a large territory, Jiujiang, Danyang, Lujiang, Kuaiji, Wujun, and Yuzhang.

Yuan Shu's Yuan family is actually in Runan, but it also has a lot of influence on Yangzhou.

Now his main sphere of influence is in Yuzhang County and Kuaiji County, which are relatively affluent counties, and they are almost tightly controlled by the Yuan family.

In addition, the current Lujiang River is in the hands of Qin Shuo, and Wu County is now in the hands of Sun Jian, which is also a cornerstone for Sun Jian to slowly rise.

Now the relationship between Sun Jian and himself is still good, but Qin Shuo doesn't know whether Sun Jian will back down when it comes to power matters.

If it is said that Sun Jian does not give in, then it is nothing, Qin Shuo also has some indifference,

At that time, the power will be directly delegated to him.

As long as the relationship between myself and Sun Jian is lukewarm, it is fine, there is no need to be too close, and there is no need to be too far away, that is not appropriate.

The other Danyang County is actually in the hands of Tao Qian. This county is actually a county that Qin Shuo is bound to win, but he will not use any hard methods, but use his own soft methods.

In fact, the most famous thing about Danyang is not that their place is very rich, or how important the terrain is, but because the people there are very suitable for serving as soldiers.

The legendary Danyang soldiers actually came from Danyang.

Danyang Bing, or "Danyang Bing", as the name suggests, is an army composed of people from Danyang County. Danyang County belongs to Yangzhou, and the Danyang soldiers produced here are called "the best soldiers in the world".

Even until the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, Danyang soldiers were still in high demand. He Jin would send Wu Qiuyi to Danyang to recruit soldiers in the future. thief.

When Sun Ce approached Yuan Shu to ask for the rest of his father's troops, Yuan Shu didn't want to return the soldiers at first, so he sent Sun Ce to attach himself to his uncle Danyang prefect Wu Jing, and also emphasized to him that Danyang was "a place of elite soldiers". Sun Ce also went to recruit hundreds of people, and was killed after being attacked by Zongshuai Zulang.

After losing everything, Yuan Shu returned Sun Jian's more than a thousand troops to Sun Ce.

There were also Danyang soldiers under Cao Cao's command. On the eve of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao went south to recruit soldiers with Xiahou Dun and others. Obviously they also came for Danyang soldiers, but in fact not many were recruited in the end.

In fact, Danyang is also a place with a strong local complex. If such outsiders are recruited, they will rarely go with them. Even if they leave, it is estimated that the price must be very heavy.

Although Qin Shuo wants Danyang soldiers now, but if the price is heavy, Qin Shuo is actually not willing. After all, his subordinates can slowly accumulate elite soldiers.

Danyang County also happens to be bordering Lujiang County now, just below Lujiang County. In fact, the relationship between the two is pretty good, after all, they also rely on Lujiang County.

Sometimes when a place becomes rich, it will actually bring about a lot of chain reactions. Now this is a kind of chain reaction.

So Qin Shuo can use this relationship to see if he can persuade the current prefect of Danyang to join him in an alliance, and then he doesn't have to worry so much.

Now Jiujiang will directly become his own Zhili area, so Qin Shuo doesn't have to worry too much.

The officials, in fact, have a very good relationship, and even they often come to Lujiang County.

So after I went to Jiujiang, there shouldn't be any major problems. At least I can communicate with some bureaucrats.

Now many people also demonized Qin Shuo, but the main demonized people were those aristocratic families. They just want Qin Shuo to be ruined and have no other ideas.

What they thought was actually very simple. Qin Shuo himself had hatred for the family, so he would definitely provoke them to destroy them.

But they didn't expect that Qin Shuo would definitely not mess with a family for no reason. Now those families in Lujiang County are still living well, even richer than before, but the land is gone.

In ancient times, there was also an old saying that wealth can only last three generations, which actually explains such a problem. In fact, land is not something that guarantees the prosperity of a family at all.

Moreover, the productivity in this era is also very low. In fact, if the land is concentrated in production, then the situation will be much better, and it will be much better for those tenants.

These are all reasons, but there are probably not many who can listen to Qin Shuo's reasoning.

Qin Shuo also felt a little helpless, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Since I can't convince them with reason, I can only convince them. At this time, there are actually some chaos inside Jiujiang County.

coming.

There are two factions in it, one is the faction that supports Qin Shuo, and the other is the faction that opposes Qin Shuo. In fact, there are people in these two factions.

But these are just debates. If Qin Shuo really took office, it is estimated that the battle between them will really start.

Qin Shuo naturally didn't know about this, and his main problem now was the conscription.

Now there are quite a few people from Danyang who have moved to Lujiang County. Qin Shuo has no objection to these families. As long as it is not that kind of waste, or a lazy family, Qin Shuo will not object.

Qin Shuo and the others don't only want elites, he also supports the old, weak, sick and disabled, but these are all based on their obedience and non-criminal basis.

If it was like the Yellow Turban Soldiers, Qin Shuo would probably have a hundred people who would oppose their entry into Lujiang County. This is still a normal idea.

After thinking about these things, Qin Shuo also got busy with his own affairs directly.
