Time flies and it’s September in the blink of an eye.
September is a crisp autumn day, but there is a touch of bleakness in the autumn wind. However, there is a prosperous scene in the Japanese state. Under Sima Yi's administration, the Japanese state has been divided into counties and counties, and even one township and one pavilion have been planned.
The administrative plan has been fully constructed.
The troops Wang Can gave Sima Yi have also been trained to combat effectiveness. Even in the territory of Wozhou, some local strength supported by Sima Yi has also grown, and Sima Yi has already established a firm foothold in Wozhou.
On the third day of September, the sky was bright and clear.
In the palace, Wang Can asked Dian Wei to pack up and pay homage, and arranged for someone to notify Gan Ning, asking Gan Ning to mobilize troops to prepare for departure. In addition, he also arranged for someone to inform Cao Cao of the departure.
Wang Can is preparing to leave today.
After arranging everything, Wang Can arranged for someone to invite Sima Yi.
During this period, Wang Can no longer dealt with government affairs, and Sima Yi handled almost everything alone. Under such circumstances, Sima Yi also knew that Wang Can was about to leave, and he knew it well.
Sima Yi entered the palace and saluted: "My lord, Sima Yi, pays homage to your majesty."
"sit!"
Wang Can waved his hand and ordered.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Sima Yi thanked him and sat down with a serious look on his face.
Wang Can said: "I called you here today because you are now fully capable of handling the affairs of Wozhou and do not need my intervention. There are still many places in Wozhou that have not been developed, and there are even many minerals in Wozhou.
It also needs development. These things can only be handled slowly by you. I will give you three thousand elite soldiers, are you sure that you can manage the Japanese state well?"
Sima Yi confidently said: "Your Majesty, three thousand elite troops are enough. In the near future, I will ask all the people of Wozhou to submit, so that the people of Wozhou can truly recognize our country of Shu and become part of it."
Wang Can said: "I look forward to that day."
After a pause, Wang Can continued: "You can go ahead and do whatever it takes to govern the Japanese state. Although the Japanese state is barren, and there are even earth dragons turning over from time to time, as long as it is managed well, there is much to be done. I hope even more, here
It will be a turning point in your career. Starting from Wazhou, you will step into the court step by step and become the most core person in the court."
"I am determined to live up to His Majesty's high expectations."
When Sima Yi heard Wang Can's words, his heart was filled with passion.
To be honest, Sima Yi looked down upon Wozhou very much.
The place here is barren, without the fertile soil of Bashu, or the fertile fields of Jizhou. The terrain is narrow, and earthquakes occur from time to time. The most important thing is that the people here are barbaric, vulgar, and completely uncivilized.
A place like this is so backward.
In Sima Yi's eyes, this is a place where birds can't poop.
However, Sima Yi had his own ambitions.
He wants to enter the center of the imperial court.
He wants to rule the court.
With his current qualifications and prestige, it is far from possible, but as long as he manages the Japanese state well, assimilates the Japanese state into a part of the Shu Kingdom, and allows the people of the Japanese state to completely become the people of the Shu state.
This will be a turning point in his career.
Therefore, Sima Yi endured everything in Wozhou and worked hard to develop it. Although his starting point was low, he would be a bright new star in the near future.
Wang Can said: "What are your current thoughts on the development of Wozhou?"
Sima Yi thought for a while and said: "My current concern is to educate the people, make all the people submit to Shu, and make everyone willing to become Shu people. Then, let them get rid of the life of eating hair and drinking blood, and be able to slash and burn. The rest, I will return
I haven’t considered it, please give me some advice, Your Majesty.”
Wang Can said: "As the saying goes, relying on mountains to feed mountains, relying on water to feed water. Although Wozhou does not have the fertile fields of Bashu, the climate of Jizhou, and the elegance of Jiangnan water towns, Wozhou has one biggest advantage."
"Japanese state is close to the sea!"
"This is the natural advantage that Wozhou has."
"In addition to the undeveloped gold and silver mines in Wozhou, you must start developing seafood, and then use today's warships to travel back and forth to promote the seafood in Wozhou to Shu."
"In this way, you can achieve great things and enter the attention of the court officials."
Wang Can said: "You have talent, and I look forward to the day when you can enter the court."
After hearing Wang Can's words, Sima Yi's blood boiled.
At this moment, he felt it was worth it.
Because Wang Can supports him.
Wang Can recognized him, which proved that he came to Wazhou at the right time. Now that he has Wang Can's respect, he will return to the court in the future and be reused.
Sima Yi lifted up his robe, knelt on his knees, and saluted: "Your Majesty has high expectations, and I will do my best to live up to your Majesty's high expectations."
Wang Can said: "Get up, I'm getting ready to set off."
Sima Yi said: "After Your Majesty leaves Japan, where will you go next?"
Wang Can smiled and said: "Now in the west of my Kingdom of Shu, there is a descendant of the Yuezhi who has established the Kushan Kingdom. This kingdom is vast and powerful. I will lead the army to leave Wazhou and go to the Kushan Kingdom.
go."
"Still going by sea and land?" Sima Yi asked.
"yes!"
Wang Can nodded and answered.
In Wang Can's plan, after he left Wazhou, he could first go to Yizhou by sea and land, then go to Hainan Island in later generations, then go west from Hainan Island into the Strait of Malacca, and finally enter the Indian Ocean, close to later India.
Log in to the area.
In this way, Wang Can can log in to India and enter the Kushan Kingdom.
Today's Kushan Kingdom occupies northern India.
In southern India, it is mainly the Kingdom of Magadha, which is a country located in the southeast of India. The place where Wang Can wants to log in is the Kingdom of Magadha. He enters from the Kingdom of Magadha and then goes to the Kingdom of Kushan.
Wang Can's goal is to occupy the entire India and defeat the Kushan Kingdom.
Sima Yi asked: "Your Majesty, are you planning to set off today?"
Wang Can nodded and replied: "There is nothing going on in Wozhou now. I have arranged for Dian Wei to pack his bags and Gan Ning to mobilize the army. Next, I will prepare to leave."
"I send you to Your Majesty!"
Sima Yi immediately spoke.
"Let's go!"
Wang Can stood up, and he took Sima Yi out. When Wang Can and Sima Yi walked out of the palace, Dian Wei, Cao Cao, Cao Ang, Cao Pi, and Gan Ning had already arrived.
All the soldiers under Wang Can's command have also formed their formation.
Wang Can left the row with Sima Yi's soldiers and ordered to set off. The army marched, brought enough dry food and fresh water, and rushed straight to the location where the battleship was docked.
The journey from Tokyo County to the location where the battleship docked was smooth and only took half a month. In late September, Wang Can and his party arrived at the coast and began to disembark.
In later generations, Wang Can also sailed across the sea.
He knows the general direction of Yizhou.
Wang Can led the army and sailed from the sea to the direction of Yizhou quickly. If they kept sailing by sea, the thousands of soldiers on the ship would not have enough fresh water and dry food, and they would have to be replenished.
Yizhou is where Wang Can supplies supplies. (To be continued)
