The strongest Marquis in history

Zhu Yuanshan assured: "Your Majesty has arrangements, and the arrangements will be made."

Wang Qi's eyes fell on Liu Jinyuan, and he said, "Liu Jinyuan, since you went south with Zhu Yuanshan, how much do you know about Satuo Kingdom?"

When Liu Jinyuan heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

What do you mean?

The emperor asked?

Is this a reassignment?

Liu Jinyuan's thoughts changed sharply, he thought for a while, and said directly: "Your Majesty, the ministers are generally aware of the overall structure of the Satu Kingdom. The slave system of the Sator Kingdom, as well as the localities of the Sator Kingdom, are built cities. .”

"The city lord of a place is equivalent to the local vassals. In fact, this is a rather primitive arrangement. As for the local governance of the Satuo Kingdom, it is even more extensive, and it is not worth mentioning. Even the basic village If there is no waiting, it is the slave owner who is responsible.”

"Slave owners, big and small, make up the entire Saduo Kingdom. The emperor of the Saduo Kingdom doesn't look like an emperor. In essence, he is just a big slave owner."

Wang Qi nodded, nodded and said, "You can see clearly."

Liu Jinyuan said: "To start a war with Saduo Kingdom, we must know ourselves and the enemy, and fully understand the situation. Otherwise, it will not be easy to directly win the war with Saduo Kingdom."

Wang Qidao: "You know so much about Saduo Kingdom, but have you thought about working here?"

Liu Jinyuan thought, sure enough.With a solemn expression on his face, he said: "Your Majesty, a humble job is a soldier, and a soldier's vocation is to obey orders. A humble job, everything is subject to His Majesty's arrangements."

Wang Qi continued: "Here in Saduo Kingdom, I have divided it. With the imperial capital of Saduo Kingdom, Landa City, as the boundary, after Landa City was renamed as Landa County, the area south of Landa County was established as Nanzhou. Xun serves as the governor of the state and governs the local area. Including Landa County, the northern region will set up Beizhou, and I am going to let you take the post of governor of the state."

When Zhu Yuanshan heard this, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect Wang Qi's arrangement for Liu Jinyuan to be so important.

This is promotion and appointment.

It is a direct promotion.

Zhu Yuanshan was also happy for Liu Jinyuan.

He is not jealous, the reason is very simple, Zhu Yuanshan is good at leading troops in wars, and he is not suitable for being a big bastard in governing the region.

Liu Jinyuan was originally a political cadre, and he was doing ideological work. He was responsible for military affairs, military discipline, and ideological work in the army. These things were done by civilian officials.

Therefore, it is most suitable for Liu Jinyuan to stay and serve.

After Liu Jinyuan heard it, he became excited.

This is his chance.

Turning to local cognition, and it is to cognition of the local feudal officials.

Liu Jinyuan thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty's arrangement, I should obey it. However, I have no experience in governing the local area. I don't even have the experience of being a county magistrate, let alone a state shepherd. I am afraid that I will let you down. His Majesty's trust."

"I believe in you."

Wang Qi said directly: "In the entire Beizhou, Nanzhou, and even the Xiangzhou in the south, the people who are actually arranged are all young people from our Qi country, and they are not very old. This is a test for you, and it is also a test." Your chance. If you are in power, go ahead and do it. I believe in you.”

After Liu Jinyuan heard it, his heart was also excited, and he said solemnly: "Your Majesty has entrusted you with a heavy responsibility, and I will go all out to live up to your majesty's high expectations."

Wang Qi said: "I believe in you."

Wang Qi turned his eyes, looked at Zhu Yuanshan again, and ordered: "Zhu Yuanshan, the army you lead is temporarily stationed outside the city. Rest for another three days. After three days, follow me and lead the army northward to the Western Regions and return to the country."

"I obey my orders!"

Zhu Yuanshan replied immediately.

Wang Qidao: "Liu Jinyuan is here in Landa County now, because this is the administrative seat of Beizhou. You should get familiar with the place as soon as possible and start the handover. That's all, let's all go down."

"Here!"

Liu Jinyuan answered again.

Liu Jinyuan and Zhu Yuanshan came out of the Chinese army camp together.

Zhu Yuanshan smiled happily, and said: "Old Liu, congratulations this time. You have been in the army, and now the opportunity has finally come to become a local feudal official."

Liu Jinyuan said: "This time, I also rely on General Zhu. If General Zhu hadn't taken the initiative to go to the court and ask to fight, if we don't take the northern border of Satuo Kingdom, I won't have this chance."

Zhu Yuanshan said: "This is all your chance."

Liu Jinyuan said: "It's just luck."

The two chatted and left the barracks.After all, Liu Jinyuan has to get familiar with the situation in Beizhou, set about establishing the state government office in Landa City, and handover with officials.

Chapter 1122 Turn around

The weather at the end of November is getting colder.

Wang Qi still led the army to go northward. This time, he returned to the mainland of Qi. Wei Xun and Liu Jinyuan never went northward together. After all, Wei Xun was the state shepherd of the southern state, and Liu Jinyuan was the state shepherd of the northern state. They had important responsibilities.

Although Wang Qi left, he left behind a large number of troops from Qi State.

Only in this way can we ensure the stability of Baixiang and Satuo.Now that the local government has just made changes, it is impossible to rely on rules and regulations, and the army must also be in charge.

This is the long-term way.

With military suppression and benevolent government, the people will gradually return to their hearts.

Before Wang Qi led the army to the north, he also sent a letter to Lin Anshun, informing him of the next arrangement, and asked Lin Anshun to continue to promote the reform in Xiangzhou in Xiangzhou, so that Xiangzhou could truly integrate into Qi as soon as possible.

Wang Qi is not worried about the regions of Object State, Beizhou, and Nanzhou.

After all, the army is there.

Moreover, more and more immigrants from the Qi State came to these places, and the strength and influence of the Qi State were increasing.

Wang Qi took Robert and Arthur and continued northward.After entering December, the weather in Beizhou became further cold and harsh. There was already heavy snowfall, roads were blocked by heavy snow, and the roads were difficult to walk.

This caused great difficulties for the march of the army.

Wang Qi also had no choice but to temporarily order to stop and rest in Beizhou.Although it is possible to force the way, but in such weather, the loss of soldiers will be great.Stopping to rest now, on the one hand, can let the soldiers recover and take a little rest.On the other hand, you can also learn more about the Northern State area.

During Wang Qi's stay of more than a month, he had a more detailed understanding of Beizhou.

In Beizhou, the environment is even worse.

Locally, there is no geographical advantage as in the south.

The only advantage of Beizhou is that it is relatively rich in mineral deposits. Besides, it is connected to the western region of Qi State, and even to the extreme west.

This is a more important key area.

There are quite a few businessmen traveling to and from Beizhou. Although it is barren and the environment is worse, people come and go, and business is relatively developed.

Once Wang Qi stayed in Beizhou, he stayed there for more than two months. He waited until February when the spring flowers bloomed before continuing to go north.All the way north, because Zhu Yuanshan is familiar with the road, and along the way he arranged Qi soldiers to guard the pass, everything went smoothly.

At the end of February, he returned to the Western Regions.

Today's Western Regions have changed a lot long ago, even in places, railway tracks have been paved.The existence of a series of railway tracks will further strengthen the control of the local area in Chang'an, Qi State.

It's just that it hasn't been used on a large scale yet, because further improvements are still being made.

This is a good thing.

Once the railway network of Qi State was really spread all over successfully.In other years, Qi State's control over the local area was also meticulous.

The reason why throughout the dynasties, once a local rebellion was made, it was not easy to suppress was because of the money and food consumed by the suppression, and the difficulty of marching the army. However, with the completion of the railway network, it will be easy for Qi to control the local area.

It is possible if it comes from the morning to the evening.

Even the transportation of grain, and the transshipment of other commerce, was easier because of the railroad network.

These are all benefits.

Wang Qi is also satisfied with the reform and development of the Western Regions.

Over the years, Wang Qi has been busy in conquests.Fortunately, Zhu Shanchang took the lead in the cabinet, and the officials of the cabinet and the six ministries never caused any problems in Qi State, but instead, it prospered day by day.

In the middle of March, the army led by Wang Qi crossed the Western Regions and arrived in Liangzhou.

It is already closer to Chang'an.

When the news that Wang Qi entered Liangzhou and began to return reached the country, the whole court was full of excitement.Because Wang Qi was sent to the sea this time, it took several years to go from Wa Kingdom to the small islands in the sea, and then to Baixiang Kingdom and Saduo Kingdom.

This is extremely rare.

There is no emperor who is always outside.

That is to say, in Wang Qi's place, everything in Qi was created by Wang Qi.The most important thing is that Wang Qi's strength is unparalleled, enough to suppress everything.In addition, Wang Zongxi is still there, there are many generals sitting in their respective places, and the Zongmen Administration is still there, so everything is stable.

As the chief assistant of the cabinet, Zhu Shanchang got excited when he got the news of Wang Qi's return.

Finally home.

The emperor has been away and is finally coming back.

Zhu Shanchang, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, although there is no emperor around, he is not hindered in everything.However, he has always acted respectfully, without any transgression.So for him, it would be better for Wang Qi to come back, and the pressure on his shoulders would be less.

Zhu Shanchang immediately arranged for someone to notify Lan Yu, Yuan Cang, Liu Zhengyuan and others to discuss the matter.

Everyone in the cabinet has arrived.

Zhu Shanchang looked around at the crowd and said slowly: "I invited you all here because I just received the news from the spies. The army led by His Majesty destroyed the Satuo Kingdom and the Baixiang Kingdom, and now it has entered the Western Region with General Zhu Yuanshan, and has entered the territory of Liangzhou .It is estimated that they will return to Chang'an soon."

As the second assistant of the cabinet, Lan Yu was refreshed when he heard Zhu Shanchang's words, and said with a smile, "Master Chief Assistant, it is a good thing that His Majesty has returned. This time, the humble official has some ideas."

Zhu Shan said: "What does Master Lan think?"

Lan Yu said: "Your Majesty, you have entrusted us with a heavy responsibility. Under the leadership of Zhu Shoufu, the governance of the entire Qi State is also well-organized, and everything is going smoothly."

"It's just that the state of Qi needs the emperor to sit in the town after all. How can there be an emperor who has been fighting outside. The humble official thinks that after His Majesty returns, he should advise His Majesty and ask His Majesty not to send troops again."

"National affairs are the most important thing, and domestic affairs are the most important."

"In particular, the territory of our country of Qi far exceeds that of previous dynasties. From the Western Regions to the coast of the East China Sea, it is tens of thousands of miles away. It is also unknown how far it is from north to south."

Lan Yu looked solemn, and said: "The current state of Qi is thriving. Such a grand event is rare in the ages. It is exactly like this, and it should be conscientious. It is most suitable for the emperor to stay in the court."

Yuan Cang nodded, and said, "Zhu Shoufu, I also agree with Master Lan's opinion. Your Majesty is the son of Shengtian, the founding king, and he has made great achievements. However, each generation has its own affairs, and each generation has its own tasks."

"Your Majesty can't be here. One generation will have to do all the things of the future generations. If that's the case, I, the descendants of Daqi, have nothing to do, and they are all playboys."

"What's more, the whole world knows that the territory of Qi State is constantly expanding. In fact, it is precisely because of the rapid development of Qi State that the challenges it faces are even greater. Therefore, at present, we need to stabilize our footsteps and lay a solid foundation."

The rest joined in.

They all support and advise Wang Qi, and hope that Wang Qi can stay after returning to the court, and stop going on foreign expeditions for the time being.

Qi State is big enough.

The governance of Qi State is already very complicated.

If you don't tamp the foundation of the place, you don't stabilize the foundation of Qi.No matter how tyrannical the state of Qi is, once something happens to Wang Qi, problems will arise in the state of Qi.

Nowadays, Qi State also has problems of one kind or another, but with Wang Qi present, everything is stable.

So when Zhu Shanchang said it, the whole cabinet agreed unanimously.Everyone held the same opinion, and believed that at the moment, Wang Qi should stay in the court temporarily to handle the government affairs of the court.

After Zhu Shanchang listened, he stroked the beard under his chin and said, "Since all the gentlemen support it, this matter has been settled. I will mention it to Your Majesty after your Majesty returns."

Everyone agrees.

Zhu Shanchang also talked about the rest of the welcome, and arranged for someone to announce Wang Qi's triumphant return.Wang Qi returned triumphantly and expanded the territory for the Qi country again. This matter must be announced to the outside world.

This is a great joy for Qi.

Zhu Shanchang arranged all the matters properly, everyone withdrew, and he arranged for people to notify the queen, concubine, and prince of the East Palace, so that everyone knew that Wang Qi had returned.

As the news fermented, time passed day by day, and it entered April in a blink of an eye.

The weather is getting warmer.

Spring is blooming, and all things are revived.

On this day, the sentinels quickly returned to the Chang'an Imperial City to inform Wang Qi of the triumphant return of his army.When Zhu Shanchang heard the news, he took all the court officials, Chinese and military officials, and went to greet him outside the west gate of Chang'an City in person.

The welcoming team was huge.

The size of Qi State is getting bigger and bigger, and the number of officials in Chang'an is also increasing.

Hundreds of people gathered, and the momentum was huge.

Zhu Shanchang, Lan Yu and others were at the front, waiting quietly.

As the second assistant of the cabinet, Lan Yu has always stood by Zhu Shanchang's side and fully supported Zhu Shanchang's administration.That is why the cabinet's governance is very stable.

If there is a dispute between the first and second assistants of the cabinet, and they have their own ideas, conflicts will easily arise in governance.

Lan Yu smiled and said, "Lord Chief Assistant, this time His Majesty is back, do you think His Majesty will listen to your persuasion?"
