One kick to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 434 Policy Plan
In a blink of an eye, time has entered the twelfth lunar month.On this day, Qin Yi and Liao Hua left Taiyuan County with three hundred personal guards and returned to Zhangzi County of Shangdang County.

It has been more than two months since he left Zhangzi County, Qin Yi came back this time to listen to Wei Ke's report.In addition, he wanted to take Zhao Yu to Jinyang County to reunite with Zhao Yun.

Wei Ke is indeed very capable. After Qin Yi handed over Shangdang County to him, Shangdang County was taken care of by Wei Ke in an orderly manner.In terms of governance, Wei Ke implemented some of Qin Yi's previous policies, but in terms of details, he was more perfect than Qin Yi's.

Although Qin Yi has vision, he is not a person who can do things carefully.Some of the policies he enacted, although they were good ones, were crude.After Wei Ji took office, he further refined and improved the policies previously promulgated by Qin Yi.

Qin Yi stayed in Shangdang County for three days. He focused on inspecting the Huangshiya Iron Mine and the construction of Shangdang Academy.The Huangshiya Iron Mine is now on the right track, starting to produce weapons made with new steelmaking techniques.Shangdang Academy has also completed its preparations and is only waiting to recruit students in the coming year.

Qin Yi also went to visit Zhang Liao's mother and younger brother, and brought them some things and Zhang Liao's letter.Knowing that Zhang Liao had been appointed by Qin Yi as the envoy of Yanmen Pass, Zhang Liao's mother was very pleased and thanked Qin Yi all the time.

Zhang Liao was originally from Yanmen County, and being an official in his hometown is more beautiful than being in other places.Zhang Liao's mother also said that if she hadn't worried about her second son Zhang Yao's studies, she would really like to move back to her hometown again.

………………

When Qin Yi returned to Jinyang County, Taiyuan County, it was already the middle of the twelfth lunar month, and the people were already busy celebrating the New Year.

Hua Xiong and Qu Bei also came back from Yecheng.Liu Bian canonized Qubei as the Shanyu of the Southern Huns, let him live in Taiyuan County, and opened a mansion and a government office.

After Qin Yi came back, he visited Qubei at the palace of the Southern Huns, and comforted him.

Soon, it will be the 27th of the twelfth lunar month.On this day, Qin Yi hosted a banquet at the Governor's Mansion of Bingzhou to entertain the officials of the Governor's Mansion and Taiyuan County.A group of officials who went to Beihenan Xiongnu Palace were also invited by Qin Yi.

The next day, the government gave the annual leave, and the officials who could go home also went home for the New Year.Only officials who are far away from home are left behind in the yamen.

On New Year's Eve, Qin Yi had New Year's Eve dinner with Xi Zhicai, Hua Xiong, Zhao Yun, Zhao Yu, Liao Hua, Guo Jia, Du Ji and others.

During the meal, Qin Yi suggested that after the New Year and the weather gets warmer, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, and Hua Xiong would send someone to fetch their families.

This year, although the Great Han started the troubled times, the whole north was caught in a war in the first half of the year, but after the winter, all the wars were over.Although there are remnants of the Yellow Turbans in many prefectures who make troubles and invade places from time to time, and bandits and bandits also come and go from time to time, but overall, the world is relatively more stable.

Qin Yi just wanted to take advantage of this short period of stability to let his officials bring his family members here so that they would not have to worry about the future.

Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia are both from Yingchuan County. Yingchuan belongs to Yuzhou and is now Yuan Shu's territory. Qin Yi and Yuan Shu are both colleagues of the Yecheng court. Therefore, Xi Zhicai and Guo Jiaruo returned to Yingchuan to pick up their families. Qin Yi Wing is very reassuring.

Hua Xiong's family is now in Chang'an. Qin Yi believes that as long as he writes a letter to Wang Yun, Wang Yun will definitely let Hua Xiong's family leave. After all, Wang Yun's hometown and clan are in Taiyuan, and his son Wang Jing is still on Qin Yi's territory, and Wang Yun still needs Qin Yi to take care of Taiyuan Wang and Wang Jing.Wang Yun will not refuse Qin Yi's small request.

Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, and Hua Xiong all agreed to the matter.

This New Year's Eve dinner lasted until midnight. After the banquet, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.Qin Yi notified the system and sent him back to the base car to accompany Liu Ruoyin to celebrate the New Year.

This time, he learned the lesson from last year and not only brought enough food, but also deliberately brought a branch of blooming plum blossoms.

Maybe it's because of the Chinese New Year, Liu Ruoyin gave Qin Yi a lot of face, she didn't show her petty temper anymore, and she didn't mention that the system made Qin Yi marry at least three Bai Fumei in the future.

However, after the two of them finished their meal, when Qin Yi wanted to stay and continue to accompany Liu Ruoyin, Liu Ruoyin disagreed, half an order and half a request to let Qin Yi leave the base vehicle.

………………

After the new year, on the sixth day of the first lunar month, the government reopened the office.Qin Yi started to get busy again.This year, the focus of his work is to fulfill the agreement of the "Yanmen Treaty".

The first thing to do is to set up the governor's office of the Southern Huns.Years ago, this matter had already been laid out, and it only needed to be carried out step by step.

Another thing is the internal migration of the Southern Xiongnu people into the customs and the external migration of the Han people out of the customs.Qin Yi planned to first resettle the thousands of prisoners detained at Yanmen Pass last year.The specific measure was to eliminate half of the captured soldiers, convert them into civilians, and disperse them to Taiyuan County and Yanmen County to engage in farming.With the remaining half of the Xiongnu prisoners, Qin Yi planned to build a Xiongnu mercenary army, which would be trained by Zhang Liao.

In the battle last year, what Qin Yi gained the most was not the thousands of captive Hun soldiers and food and supplies, but the war horses.After the Battle of Yanmen, he obtained a total of nearly 7000 war horses. Excluding the injured and unusable horses, there were still more than [-] horses left.

Of these war horses, Qin Yi planned to keep [-] horses for the future Huns to hire and use, and he planned to form another [-] cavalry for the rest.

Qin Yi's direct army in Taiyuan now has only 500 people. If he forms another 1 cavalry, plus the Xiongnu hired army, the force under his direct control will reach [-].If there is a war, Qin Yi will be able to draw [-] to [-] elite soldiers to join the battle if he summons them casually.If the convocation is relaxed, Qin Yi can gather nearly [-] troops.

With so many troops, it is enough for Qin Yi to gain a foothold in Bingzhou and covet the world.You know, in the original history, after Cao Cao unified the north, when he marched south, he only assembled an army of less than 20, claiming to be 80.

Of course, before the moment of life and death, Qin Yi would not disregard the people's livelihood of Bingzhou and summon all the young men of Bingzhou to join the army.His idea is to keep a standing force of about [-], and then form a militia of [-] to [-], and conduct training during the slack season for future use.

However, even if only [-] standing troops are reserved, it is a great burden to feed so many people.Therefore, Qin Yi decided to retain only [-] elite emergency response troops, and the rest of the army would all be stationed in the fields, training while farming, and striving for self-sufficiency.

In this era, the most indispensable thing is wasteland, and there are still many farmlands that were abandoned after the Yellow Turban War.The army's organizational ability is strong, and it is easy to open up wasteland and farmland.This is also a good example in the original history. In the original history, Cao Cao developed agriculture by farming and met the food supply, thus feeding a large number of troops and laying the foundation for him to unify the north.

Cao Cao's farmland is divided into Mintun and Juntun. Mintun recruits farmers to cultivate the government's land, and the government collects grain rent. This trick was implemented by Qin Yi in Shangdang County last year.It's just that the name Qin Yi used was "official tenant".

Juntun means that there are troops engaged in farming, half army and half people.

Qin Yi's next plan is to implement both civilian settlements and military settlements.Mintun, in addition to recruiting landless peasants to rent and plant land from the government, Qin Yi wanted to use the Southern Huns who migrated inland as the main force of Mintun for unified management.

Of course, these ideas are still only on paper, and it will take two or three years to implement them in practice.

However, with a plan, Qin Yi has confidence.He believed that after a few years, Bingzhou would develop into a rich place like Jizhou and Xuzhou.
