The World of Yellow Sky

However, although Xu An didn't take the name, he still knows the etiquette. If the other party has a name, it is really impolite to call him by his first name.

"If it wasn't for Shu Rong's abandoning the dark side and turning to the bright side this time, and motivating the officials of the various ministries and other counties in southern Xinjiang to join him, otherwise, if he wanted to unify Yizhou, he would have to go through a bloody battle."

"The Marquis of Jin's words are serious. The Marquis of Jin has always been considerate of the people. He has the name of a benevolent lord. He is ordered to be righteous, obey the destiny, and the destiny will return. I can only wait for the time and obey the will of heaven."

Yong Qiao lowered his head slightly and said respectfully.

The corners of Xu An's mouth turned up, and he laughed. Although he knew that what Yong Qiao said was flattering, it was really comfortable to hear.

"Shu Rong should know that my Taiping Dao system is different from that of the Han court. It's not just the state pastoral system in the local area, right?"

After thinking about it for a while, Yong Qiao answered.

"I have indeed heard that the Marquis of Jin is in the local area, and the state animal husbandry system and the three-division system are parallel."

"Using the chief secretary to manage the government, using punishments to follow the procuratorial law as supervision, and using the army to protect the environment and the people, I think that the three-division system has many merits. Compared with only implementing the state pastoral system in the local area Much better."

When he first learned about the system implemented by Taipingdao, Yongqiao was actually very disappointed.

The three-division system does not only divide the power of the state pastor, but also the power of the county guard. I am afraid that the days to come will not be as comfortable as before. In addition, it is said that the eagle wolf guards will set up hundreds of people in various places. Households, the pervasive eagle and wolf guards are definitely their nightmare.

But the matter has come to this point, there is nothing to do, the situation is stronger than people.

Xu An knocked on the table and asked: "The Yong family has a great reputation in Yizhou, and Shu Rong is upright, suitable for the post of procurator. I don't know if Shu Rong is willing to be the procurator of Yizhou."

"Since you are fortunate enough to be valued by the Marquis of Jin, there is no reason why I should not."

"I will live up to the great trust of the Marquis of Jin, and I will do my best to ensure the cleanliness of Yizhou's officials and the justice of the law."

Yong Qiao made a bow with both hands, bowed his head and sang promises.

Meeting Yong Qiao also gave Xu An a general understanding of the situation in Nanzhong.

Later, Xu An granted Zhang Yan the title of Shepherd of Yizhou.

Lei Tong, who was born as a soldier in Dongzhou, was appointed as the right envoy of Yizhou Chief Secretary, and Wu Yi was appointed as the left envoy of Yizhou Chief Secretary.

At the same time, Pei Yuanshao was appointed as the guard envoy of the military guards.

Both Zhang Yan and Pei Yuanshao were generals from the Taipingdao, and both of them had believed in Xu An's loyalty to the Taipingdao.

Zhang Yan has outstanding abilities. He has always been in charge of the military region, and also responsible for civil affairs. Moreover, he was born in the military. No matter in the original time and space, he is extremely outstanding now.

Yizhou animal husbandry was handed over to Zhang Yan, and Zhang Yan was able to overwhelm Dongzhou scholars and powerful families in Yizhou.

Pei Yuanshao is in charge of the military guards, which can ensure the safety of Yizhou's counties.

Pei Yuanshao also studied in the martial arts hall for a certain period of time before, and his military strategy has made considerable progress compared to before. It is indeed a bit counterproductive to suddenly be promoted to be the protector of Yizhou, but with Zhang Yang sitting in the central army, it should not be possible. question.

The candidate for the guardian envoy is the second in ability and the first in loyalty. Pei Yuanshao can be said to be a straight seedling, born in the old Taiping Road. Since the second year of Zhongping, he has been under Xu An's command and has been working hard.

Zhang Yan was the governor of the state, and Pei Yuanshao was in charge of the area as the envoy. With the military power in hand, Dongzhou soldiers actually obeyed the Taiping Road. In Yizhou, Taiping Road occupied a dominant position.

The three forces in Yizhou can check and balance each other without completely losing control.

Chapter 726 Family Letter, Padang Military Region, Silk Road

Naturally, there was no objection to Xu An's appointment.

After everyone thanked the gift and received the seal, the document left the government office, and the time for taking office was set after the New Year.

At present, military control is still implemented in Yizhou. The New Year is approaching, and Xu An is not so unkind. At the beginning of the New Year, most of the officials in Taipingdao get holidays and can go home for the New Year.

With the departure of Zhang Yan and others, the government office became empty again.

"Another year has passed."

Sitting in the chair, Xu An suddenly felt a little melancholy, year after year, day after year.

Every New Year's Day, basically either on the way to march and fight, or preparing to march and fight.

Now that Yizhou has been captured, it's time to accumulate strength and stop fighting, but Xu An feels that he is not used to it.

Build walls high, accumulate grain, and slowly become king.

It's easy to say, but when it's actually done, it makes Xu An feel difficult.

In the past nine years, the time for the Yellow Turban Army to really stop was extremely limited, and most of the time Xu An was fighting outside.

During the war abroad, Yan Zhong or Liu Pi and others were mostly in the middle to support and take care of internal affairs.

Xu An took a look at the "Yizhou Tuntian Book" submitted by the Ministry of Industry that he had put on the table before. He wanted to pick it up and read it again, but his eyes were attracted by a letter.

It was a letter received a few days ago. It was a letter from Wang Yi sent to him from Zhongzhou. He never had time to read the contents of the letter.

After he and Wang Yi got married in Liangzhou, because they had to deal with various affairs and traveled around, they had always been together less and more often. The two of them were actually together for only three or four months. Even in Chang'an, Xu An was busy until late every day, and rarely had time to rest.

Holding the envelope in his hand, Xu An suddenly felt a little apologetic.

He seemed to have really neglected Wang Yi, the situation was changing rapidly, and there was no room for relaxation, which made Xu An sometimes not aware of the thoughts of the person next to him.

Xu Yu is from Wuhuan. He likes hunting. He often leads his guards on the outskirts of Chang'an to hunt and watch the scenery. He has a great time.

But Wang Yi, like most of the daughters of aristocratic families in this era, lives in a deep house and rarely travels.

Xu An thought about it for a while, he really didn't seem to know what Wang Yi likes, what he usually does, and what he thinks in his heart.

Unfolding the letter paper, Xu An couldn't help laughing, there were only sixteen beautiful Chinese characters on the letter paper.

"The autumn wind is clear, the autumn moon is bright, the fallen leaves gather and scatter, and the jackdaws roost and startle again."

Xu An didn't expect that a poem he read casually was actually memorized by Wang Yi.

This poem, which should have been handed down until the Tang Dynasty, appeared on the letterhead at this time.

The autumn wind is clear and the autumn moon is bright.

The fallen leaves gathered and scattered, and the jackdaws roosted in shock.

Lovesickness knows when to meet each other, this night is embarrassing.

Enter the door of my lovesickness, and know that my lovesickness is bitter.

Long-term lovesickness is long-term lovesickness, short-term lovesickness is endless.

I knew it was such a stumbling block, so how could I not know each other?

Xu An's heart moved slightly. At the beginning, he agreed to marry Wang Yi only because he wanted to acquire Liangzhou, and because he, as a force, really wanted to get married to reassure the generals.

It's just that when he first saw Wang Yi in Ji County, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

"Now I know that the great virtuous teacher is also a person of flesh and blood, and can joke."

Xu An closed his eyes, recalling what Wang Yi had said to him that day.

"I knew it was such a stumbling block, why didn't I know each other at the beginning..."

Xu An opened his eyes again and stood up.

"This is blaming me."

"It is indeed time to return to Zhongzhou."

This year's New Year in Zhongzhou must be very lively.

Not long after Xu An got married, all the generals Liu Pi, Gong Du, He Man and others in Taiping Road also got married one after another.

Not long after the capture of Guanzhong last year, Yan Zhong led Liangzhou soldiers into Guanzhong.

Later, when Chang'an Mansion was to be rectified and Yingtian County reestablished, Yan Zhong stayed temporarily to help Xu An handle Chang'an's affairs.

Hua Tuo sent news several times, saying that Yan Zhong was in poor health and could not travel long distances, and Yan Zhong was not advised to return to Liangzhou.

Yan Zhong's character is more persistent, and the things he decides will not be changed easily. Hua Tuo also sent a letter to want Xu An to come back, and persuaded Yan Zhong not to return to Liangzhou, but to stay in Chang'an.

Yizhou is now stable, and it really doesn't make much sense to stay in Yizhou.

Xu An personally led the army to attack Yizhou, but the situation in Yizhou was unknown at the time, so he took the risk to ensure the greatest victory for Chengdu.

Now that the situation in Yizhou is stable, Xu An has enough time to bring the cavalry back to January, but there is definitely no time to bring the infantry.

Therefore, most of the Yellow Turban infantry will be temporarily stayed in Yizhou, and the military settlements in various places have already begun to implement it, which is enough to ensure that Yizhou is safe.

Previously, in order to ensure the safety of Yizhou, Xu An also set up the Badong Military Region in the eastern part of Yizhou's Bajun District.

The Badong Military Region has been established and has been maintained for more than a month now.

After Zhao Zhi served as the military commander of the Badong Military Region, Xu An took Guan Cheng as the Deputy Daoist of the Badong Military Region, and led the navy under his command to go south to Yizhou. division.

There is no longer any need for the Fenshui Marine Division to exist. Now in the territory of Taiping Road, water thieves are almost invisible, and even if there are a few book thieves left, they are just two or three big cats and kittens. the wind and waves.

The newly established Badong Military Region has only six cities in total, namely Zhixian County, Quren, Linjiang, Pingdu, Yufu, and Fuling in the eastern part of Berkshire.

Zhixian, Quren, Linjiang, and Pingdu are the four cities that Zhao Yi played all the way when he fled to Jiangguan, while Baidi City is in Yufu, and Fuling is another important checkpoint.

The purpose of setting up the Badong Military Region is to protect the eastern gateway of Yizhou and prevent the possible invasion of the Jingzhou Army.

But now the two courts of the Han and Wei dynasties have fought real battles. Both sides are stationed in the north, and now it is freezing cold. Generally speaking, there is absolutely no extra military force, and there is no time and conditions to attack Yizhou.

Gan Ning was named General Zhechong, commanding Yufu's navy, and Baidi City was within Yufu's territory, controlled by Zhao Zhi.

Zhao Zhi originally led hundreds of thousands of Yizhou Yellow Turban Army to cooperate with the outside world so that Xu An could successfully complete the plan and complete the plan to drive away the tigers and wolves.

Even if he didn't have the achievement of cooperating with the inside and the outside, but just brought tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans under his command, his achievements could still be promoted to a fifth-rank titled general.

After that, Zhao Zhi committed the danger himself, pretending to be a rout of troops to cover all the way, outsmarted Baidi City, captured Jiangguan, and captured Fuling, occupying the eastern gate of Yizhou in one fell swoop, cutting off the attack route of the Jingzhou army, and making Yizhou safe. Having been further promoted, Zhao Zhi's achievements can be described as outstanding.

It stands to reason that his merits are enough for the four generals and four generals who have been named the fourth rank.

But in the end, Xu An still didn't have Jin Zhaoyi as the heavy-ranked general of the fourth rank, but Zhao Yi was named Zhennan General, and Jiabadong Bing Beidao.

Xu An did not promote Zhao Yi to the rank of general of the four campaigns and the four towns. Xu An had more considerations, but he should be rewarded for his merits and punished for his mistakes.

So Zhao Zhi became the first person in Taiping Dao to be knighted, and was named Nanling Bo.

The earl is the third rank of the fifth rank in the ancient Chinese feudal system. "Book of Rites·Royal System": "The king's system is Lujue, Duke, Bozi, male, and all five."

There were no earls in the twentieth-class nobility system used by the Qin and Han dynasties. Xu An is now only a title of Marquis of Jin, so naturally he cannot casually confer princely titles.

As for Marquis Guiyi outside the Great Wall, that is naturally different.

The king must not be pardoned, and Xu An will not be able to make anyone a king in the future. Bestowing a king is a way to bring disaster.

The titles conferred in Taiping Dao are all military titles, and conferring generals is not a symbol of nobility, but more similar to a kind of honor, just like the title of a titled general.

Taking big steps is not a good thing.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

Everything must proceed from reality. Although the Taoists in Taiping Dao have been influenced by the innovative ideas of Taiping Dao, they still have many things unique to this era.

It is unrealistic and divorced from reality to expect everyone to strive for a lofty ideal.

Reforms also need to be in line with the development of the times. Playing with democracy in a terrible era like the Han Dynasty, when literacy rates were low, would be tantamount to asking for a dead end.

Propagating materialism in an era of superstitious ghosts and gods like the Han Dynasty, most of them got strange eyes, and not many people would believe it.

The development of society needs to go through a certain process, and everything is done step by step, not overnight.

Taking the Tusi system as an example, why was it possible for the Qing Dynasty to successfully reform the land and return it to the local people, while the Yuan and Ming dynasties could not.

Because when the chieftain system was first implemented, during the Yuan Dynasty, there were many problems in various aspects, and the system was still being perfected.

With the development, the Ming Dynasty continued to implement the chieftain system, and the chieftain system was perfected. The Ming Dynasty began to reform the land and return it to the people, and achieved certain results.

In the end, because of the experience left by the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the Qing Dynasty succeeded in reforming the land and returning to the people, because the Yuan and Ming dynasties had solved the most difficult problems.

Yizhou was settled, and there was no need for Xu An to stay in Yizhou.

When leaving Yizhou, Xu An ordered Zhang Yan to start recruiting craftsmen to build two tripods in Yizhou, which were divided into two tripods, the son and the mother. The inner gods of Taichung.

Now the three tripods of Zhongzhou, Bingzhou and Liangzhou have been placed in Shenming Taichung, and with the addition of Yizhou Ding, there are four tripods on Shenming Taichung.

Every time Taipingdao captures a state and brings it into its territory, and casts a tripod and sends it to Shenmingtai, it greatly boosts the morale of the people and soldiers in Taipingdao. Although this method is simple, it makes the people under the jurisdiction of Taipingdao think that Taipingdao It is the true destiny.

Taipingdao's propaganda offensive has achieved initial results, and the Battle of Yizhou became the first large-scale publicity activity of Taipingdao newspaper.

The battle report of the Yellow Turban Army's march into Yizhou was slightly polished and published in newspapers for distribution.

Then Xu An personally led the generals under his command to cross Motianling, and the incident of sneaking into Yinping was also revealed one by one, and a story was written.

Zhao Zhi's attack on Baidi City was also written into a story.

In addition, in the Battle of Chengdu, some heroic deeds in the several battles of attacking Yizhou were highlighted, and the Xuanjiao Office began to launch publicity campaigns.

These stories have been adapted by Xuanjiaofu and widely distributed to storytellers everywhere.
