I’m The King Chapter 781: : Sunrise East (6)

The issue of Yuyang, under another transaction with Zhao Qi, quickly completed the withdrawal of Zhao Qi's army from Dai County, ending the year-long war against Dai County, and in return, Gao Yuan released the police in Yuyang. Yang Yang surrendered nearly 20,000 Zhao troops, and at the same time returned the other four cities except the whole city, so that Zhao Qi could have a good confession in Zhao State

Letting Zhao Qi continue to be in power in Zhao State is a good thing for the current Zhengdong Mansion, but for him to continue to stay in this position, he must be given certain benefits. The four cities outside the city, although they caused some controversy among the high-level officials of Zhengdong Mansion, under the guidance of this big goal, they quickly recovered their calm

Zhengdong Mansion has actually obtained the control of Daijun, and at present, Zhao State is not a lofty goal. The existence of Zhao State can attract the attention of Qin State to the greatest extent. There is such a country lying across The relationship between the forces of Zhengdong Mansion and Qin State has great practical significance for the current Zhengdong Mansion

Zhengdong Mansion must convince Zhao Guo that Zhengdong Mansion is not malicious to them at the moment. Let Zhao Guo come to this conclusion so that they can concentrate on dealing with Qin State's current offensive and return the four cities. Bi Xing only holds the whole city in his hands, in fact, it also strangles Zhao Guo's possible offensive against Yuyang again

After solving these problems, Gao Yuan immediately led the young guards back to Jishi City. With Langya and Yuyang brought under the rule of Zhengdong Mansion, the corresponding government system must be established immediately /

Fan Dengke was transferred back to Langya and served as the governor of Langya. Ye Zhong's Southern Group Army entered Langya and started a new round of army expansion. Du Shenghao of Zhengdong Mansion served as the sheriff. Zeng Xianyi served as the general guarding Yuyang and belonged to Ye Zhen's Central Group Army, and Zeng Xianyi's troops will also be expanded into an army on the basis of the original. Expenditure, money and food. Naha was stationed in Hejian from Yuyang, and the headquarters of Ye Zhen's Central Army was also transferred from Hejian to Yuyang

At the same time, the infantry under Ye Zhen was temporarily recruited to the Young Guards. After withdrawing from Yuyang, the 6,000 cavalry under his command returned to Jishi City for rest. , will go to Hetao together with the Young Guards. Launch an attack on Donghu

Jiang Jiaquan held a stack of thick papers and began to report them one by one in front of Gao Yuan

"The first step is to clean up the officials in Langya and Yuyang. The old officials in these two places are overstaffed and inefficient, and most of them are in the hands of the local aristocratic families. If we don't do this well, we will The work in these two places will be extremely difficult to carry out "Jiang Jiaquan Road

"Government of officials has always been a huge problem. The two places have been newly established. Will the big fight cause local turmoil?" Du Shenghao, the new governor of Yuyang County, is a little worried. He is from Yuyang. It is quite clear about the local situation

"It is precisely because of this that we have to take advantage of this opportunity to quickly cut through the mess and solve the problem in one fell swoop." Gao Yuan said unquestionably: "Officials are easy to deal with, but those officials are the most troublesome, most of them are locals The forces are deeply intertwined. If we allow them to collude, even if we send new officials there, we will not be able to carry out our New Deal. Therefore, we must take advantage of the fact that they are trembling with our military power, and carry out drastic reforms of the bureaucracy. Don't be merciless. , our local garrison will become the strongest backing of your civil affairs. At this time, the military department of Zhengdong Mansion will send a message to the local garrison, asking them to fully cooperate with your actions."

"Captain, what should I do?" Du Shenghao asked hesitantly

Hearing this question, Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing, "You are the prefect of Yuyang, and you know the local situation best. How to do it is your job as the prefect. What I want to see is my levy. The new government of the Eastern Mansion can be carried out at the fastest speed in Yuyang, where the officials are clear and efficient, and the war-torn people can live and work in peace and contentment in the shortest possible time."

"This subordinate understands!" Du Shenghao leaned forward, the meaning in Gao Yuan's words was already very clear, you are the governor of Yuyang County, this is your job, if even this cannot be completed smoothly, That means you're incompetent, and I'm afraid you'll end up as an official

Gao Yuan nodded appreciatively. For these scholars, the advantage is that they don't need to speak clearly, they can understand the meaning of their words by listening to the strings

"As for Langya, the situation is different." Gao Yuan turned to Fan Dengke, "Dengke, you are an old man from the Ye family, and Langya is also the former fiefdom of Prime Minister Ye. After Langya was taken, the original officials of the Ye family, They have all been suppressed. This time we took back Langya, this group of people will definitely flock to you to ask for an official position. You have to be careful, only those with talents can use them, and you must not hide filth just because of nostalgia. You know, Ye Xiang's governance of Langya in the past was completely different from our idea of ​​Zhengdong Mansion. If these old officials can't keep pace with the times and accept our new policies, then they can't use you as an official in Zhengdong Mansion at all. It has been several years, and the requirements for our employment are very clear, and we must not be mistaken."

"The subordinate understands" Fan Denke nodded again and again

"Also, these old officials may come to follow Madam's route, or go to Tuo Yezhong. In this regard, you have to firmly grasp the direction and withstand the pressure." Gao Yuan's eyes flashed , "Denke, here I want to make my words clear, so that you won't be charged for it if something goes wrong in the future, that is, Langya who returns can only be Langya from Zhengdong Mansion, not Ye's fief."

Fan Denke was shocked, leaned forward and said, "This subordinate will firmly remember this."

"That's good!" Gao Yuan smiled and turned to look at Jiang Jiaquan, "Let's talk about the second one!"

"After clarifying the administration of officials and establishing a solid local government, the second step is the land issue. Let's talk about Langya first. The largest landlord in Langya was originally the Ye family. Later, the Ye family lost Langya, and these lands were taken by the Yan State. Returned to the state, and now Langya has taken it back, these lands?"

"Owned by Zhengdong Mansion, what is there to say?" Gao Yuan said decisively: "My Zhengdong Mansion takes land policy as the core of the country, no matter who it is, it can't touch this red line. It is owned by the Dongfu, and then sold to the landless people at a low price. If you have no money to buy it, you can pay it back on credit without interest and pay it back every year. The same is true for Yuyang. Land is the lifeblood of farmers. This is to reassure them, and secondly, to tie them to the ground"

"Does Madam have any doubts?"

"You don't have to worry about this." Gao Yuan shook his head, "The Ye family's fiefdom no longer exists with the death of his father-in-law."

"That's good, then our second step in these two places is Qingzhang Tianmu, Langya, and Yuyang are all rich and fertile lands, but they are also places with a lot of accumulation, the merger of fields, and the number of hidden fields. Many, I believe this time, we will have a big harvest, of course, the rewards and risks coexist, which will touch the interests of many people, now that the war is imminent, the governor, should it be implemented immediately, or postponed?"

Gao Yuan hesitated for a while, and said: "It is imperative to clarify the administration of officials. Qingzhang Tianmu will be postponed. First, sell those public lands, and then follow the example of Liaoxi and Hejian, first buy land from those big landlords, and guide their Capital enters into business, this work can be done gradually, there is no need to worry"

Yan Shenghao on the side clapped his hands and praised: "This method is good. It can clarify a group of people, dig out a group of people, and wait until Donghu is wiped out. All the guys will be removed"

Jiang Jiaquan also said with a smile: "If they know the current affairs, they can hand over a large amount of land they merged, and they can still get money at the market price. If not, when the time comes, they will let them fetch water from the bamboo basket and get nothing."

"That's the reason!" Gao Yuan nodded: "Under Zhengdong Mansion's rule, the existence of big landlords and powerful tycoons will not be allowed. Qiwu, in order to achieve this goal, must not be merciful. Please everyone here remember that the foundation of our conquest of the East Mansion is tens of millions of ordinary people, not the handful of big landlords, big tycoons, Whoever wants to cry all the way, I will let his family not even have to cry"

Hearing Gao Yuan's categorical words, both Fan Dengke and Du Shenghao shuddered. Of course, the two of them knew that the killing intent revealed in these words was enough to make some families in the two places bleed into rivers and disappear from now on. In the long river of history

"The third step is the issue of the expansion of the Southern Army and the Central Army. In the past, because our focus was on Hetao, the two armies were seriously insufficient~IndoMTL.com~ Now these two armies are taking care of both The defense of this county must be expanded, "Jiang Jiaquan continued."

"This is the proper intention for Ye Zhong and Ye Zhen to recruit troops on the spot. Of course, the conditions cannot be relaxed, and they would rather be smart than indiscriminate. If they have the ability to recruit the entire army, it is up to them, but, For their military expenses, the southern group army will be supplied by Langya, while the central group army will be supplied by Yuyang. The counties of Liaoxi, Hejian, Jishi, Dayan, Hetao and other counties will concentrate their efforts on the final decisive battle with Donghu in the next year. , if necessary, their two armies should also be prepared to enter Donghu to fight"

"Langya, Yuyang was originally rich, and it used to supply the consumption of tens of thousands of troops. Now it should not be a big problem to continue to bear the military expenses of the two armies, and with the implementation of our new policy, the financial situation will further improve "Jiang Jiaquan interjected, "Commander, the adjustment of internal affairs has basically come to an end, and the next step is the completion of local affairs, Commander, today I actually received a private letter from my senior brother, he told me that he wanted to come to Jishi City to communicate with him. I saw you last time, and I will tell you about the parting feelings and friendship of the past few decades."

Gao Yuan leaned back and laughed loudly: "It's time to have a talk with Qin Guo. Qin Guo is now managing the Central Plains, is he afraid that I will make trouble with him? That's fine, he will come whenever he comes. Since He came in the name of your senior brother, so I don't need to pay attention to it, but you have a good talk with him, what kind of tricks does the Qin people want to play this time?"
