The front foot of the Qi army withdrew from the county seat of Dengxian County, the rear foot of the Ming army took over the city that was lost in the pre-Yue era, Dengxian County and Feng County are next to each other, before the war, it is also very prosperous, it is one of the important strongholds of Qi Ming's business exchanges, unlike Feng County was completely destroyed, Dengxian County did not suffer any damage.

But the market is just as depressed. Dengxian is the place where the Qi merchants gathered, the Qi army was defeated, the Qi merchants gathered here also retreated with the Qi army in panic, the former lively Dengxian became deserted, the shops were closed, a large number of goods were left in the shops, the merchants were unable to transport them away, compared with these goods, they valued their lives more. Those things can only be cheap.

The aborigines of Dengxian County were also at a loss, and they had been under the rule of the Qi people for four years. Although Deng County and Feng County are adjacent to each other, one belongs to Yiyang and the other belongs to Shayang. Different from the aborigines of Yiyang, Wuling and Taoyuan counties, the people of Dengxian County are still doing well, because of the large-scale transactions of Ming and Qi commerce, the people of Dengxian County are doing well, agriculture does not occupy a major position here, and commerce is the main lifeblood of this county.

Now that the big boss has changed, the people don't know what they will do in the future? They can only close the door of their home tightly, passively waiting for another major turn in their fate.

Qin Feng was very busy, for him, the war was over, but a series of things after the war made him even busier.

Shoufu Quan Yun once again left Yuejing City and arrived in Dengxian County with a large number of supplies.

"Is the queen okay?" Looking at the dusty Quan Yun, Qin Feng asked.

Quan Yun smiled and said: "Your Majesty, when you left Yuejing City, the minister went to see Niangniang, but Niangniang didn't see the minister, and the minister didn't even step into the door, it seems that Niangniang is not very happy." ”

Qin Feng stagnated slightly, Min Ruoxi had reason to be unhappy, because he was calculating the Chu State this time, in this Mingqi transaction, the Chu State is undoubtedly the biggest victim, if everything develops according to his own vision, after this winter, the powerful eastern border army of Chu State will not say that all the wings will be broken, but I am afraid that there will be little left, once the eastern border army of Chu State is defeated, in the face of the strong army of the Qi people, Chu State will no longer have the strength to attack, and can only turn to passive defense, in other words, What Chu State has lost is not only the ability to dominate the world, but also from now on, he is only afraid that he will be shocked three times a night, and he will always worry about the attack of the Qi people.

"Xi'er, she ......" Qin Feng wanted to speak and stopped.

"Your Majesty don't worry!" Quan Yun shook his head and said: "Niangniang was born in the royal family, such a thing, in fact, Niangniang has already been psychologically prepared, Niangniang is the queen of the Ming Dynasty, no longer the princess of Chu State, this point, Niangniang is also clear in her heart, unhappy for a while, that is also human nature." ”

Qin Feng touched his chin that he hadn't shaved for a few days, and a dense stubble beard had grown on his chin, "It seems that I have to go back to Yuejing a little later, I will go back early, and my anger has not subsided, I am afraid that I will have to sleep in the study." ”

Quan Yun smiled, this is the king's palace secret, so he doesn't have to speak.

After a few words of self-pity there, Qin Feng quickly adjusted his mood, "Before the New Year, all the north of Zhaoguan will be returned to our hands, but judging from the information collected by the Eagle's Nest now, the situation in the three counties of Yiyang, Wuling, and Taoyuan is quite not optimistic. These three counties have been squeezed too hard by the Qi people in a few years, and the people can be said to have no surplus food at home, and riots broke out, and now the Qi people simply leave it alone, which makes the riots further escalate, Shoufu, this is a mess! The most ruthless thing about the Qi people is that they actually want to move all the gentry from these three places into Qidi, whether they want to or not, they have to retreat with their army, and as soon as these people leave, there will really be nothing left in these three counties. ”

"It's a bad thing, but it's also a good thing." Quan Yunshu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, what our Ming is best at is rebuilding our homes on top of a ruin, didn't you also say that it is easier to paint on a blank piece of paper." These gentry are gone, taking with them a lot of wealth, but they can't take away the land, mountains, rivers, and so on, and we can naturally nationalize these places when they go. What is the wealth taken away by the gentry? ”

Qin Feng laughed: "Shoufu is right, what was the situation of Changyang at the beginning, didn't we also carry it?" These three counties will never be worse than Changyang. Shousuke, what do you think? ”

"Your Majesty, the first of the three strategies is to quell the chaos. This is a matter of the army, the old minister will not say much, but this must be quickly suppressed by thunderous means, after a person robs the first time, eat the marrow and know the taste, and then let them put down the butcher's knife It will be difficult, for these mobs, there is no need to pity, it must be completely solved, only by calming down the three counties, and then we can talk about governance. ”

Qin Feng nodded: "You're right, I'll talk to Kitten and Wu Ling about this when I go back." ”

After listening to Qin Feng's words, Quan Yun said, "Your Majesty has already decided that Wu Ling will be stationed in Zhaoguan?" ”

"Kitten is going to replace Huo Guang as the secretary of the military department, and Wu Ling is a suitable candidate to guard Zhaoguan."

"This person doesn't have a good reputation, and he's too murderous." Quan Yun frowned slightly, "The people's discussions, the official voice of the court, there is no praise for him." ”

"I want a general who kills decisively, not a good gentleman. Shousuke, we are finally going to face the challenge of Qi State, and I need such a general to guard the Zhaoguan Pass for me and win more time for the Ming to rebuild. Besides, Wu Ling's name can stop children crying at night, don't you think he is very suitable for the current situation of the three counties of Yiyang? Qin Feng asked with a smile.

"In the military, the old minister only has the right to make suggestions, and His Majesty can decide with one word." Quan Yun shook his head with a smile and said, "The minister will talk about the governance of the next three counties." The first major event after the war was the award. The army has made great contributions this time, whether it is in the battle against Qin or in the battle of alignment, it is the army's courageous fight that has won us the current good situation, so the reward must be heavy and fast, so that the soldiers feel that their struggle and their sacrifice is worth it. This time, the minister was not going to give cash as a reward, but was going to give these soldiers a reward. ”

"In the three counties of Yiyang?" Qin Feng immediately understood Quan Yun's intentions.

"Not bad." Quan Yun nodded heavily: "Yiyang, Wuling, Taoyuan, with a large number of gentry being taken away by the Qi people, the harsh government of the Qi people, and the frequent riots, the people of these three places have suffered serious losses. And these three places have just entered the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, and if you want to talk about loyalty, I am afraid that you can't count on it for a while. Those people will be loyal to our Ming Dynasty, and they will naturally be our army. ”

"If the soldiers' military exploits are converted into land and rewarded to them, the families of these soldiers will come to live in these three places, and they will become the basic plate of our Ming Dynasty's rule in these three places. With these people, these three counties will quickly integrate into the Ming Dynasty. ”

"What if there are military families who don't want to leave their homes and come to these three counties?" Qin Feng asked.

"Your Majesty, under the heavy reward, I am not afraid that they will not be moved, these soldiers, although they also have land under the Ming Dynasty, but there are not many, this time the ministers are ready to spend blood, not afraid that they will not be moved, and Yiyang, Wuling, Taoyuan The land is also fertile and not lose Zhengyang, are you still afraid that they will not be moved? These lands cannot be bought and sold, they can be passed from father to son and son to grandchildren, but they cannot be bought or sold. ”

"It's a good idea." Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Second, Your Majesty, the minister asks you to change the original plan of the rail car you are going to build, the first rail car starts from Fengxian, runs through Yiyang, Wuling, Taoyuan three counties, and reaches Zhaoguan, first, these three places are plains, the cost of construction will be greatly reduced, second, once completed, this will be an important strategic road, if we have a war with the Qi people, there is this road, our materials, soldiers, can reach Zhaoguan as quickly as possible, this is above the military. But on top of the civil administration, the people's livelihood in the three places is now exhausted, and we need to provide relief for work, so that the people in these three places can use their labor to exchange food. It takes a lot of manpower to build a rail car, and the displaced people in these three places will be able to do this job well, which will save us a lot of costs. What's more, with food to eat, those who riot will quickly lose motivation, and if they can eat with their labor, who will carry their heads to do business without capital? With this, coupled with the army's vigorous suppression of bandits, I believe that the three counties of Yiyang, Wuling, and Taoyuan will soon return to peace. "Kwon Yundao.

"This is a good idea, but it's a big trouble, and after you go down, you will discuss with the Railway Department and Fang Dazhi Jin Shengnan to come up with a strategy." Qin Feng Dao.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The third is the officials. A good official can bring happiness to one party, while an unqualified official can harm one party. This is the list of officials in these three places after the old minister consulted with the ministry, and asked His Majesty to review it, and after His Majesty's approval, the political affairs hall will sign and issue it, and these officials will also take over the management of the people's livelihood in these places one by one with the advance of the army. ”

Taking over the thick stack of lists from Quan Yun's hand, Qin Feng didn't look at it carefully, glanced at it roughly, and suddenly asked in surprise: "Shoufu, there are still many officials here who are so young, look at this, they are only sixteen years old, and they actually let him govern a county, this, this is a bit unbelievable, right?" ”

Quan Yun laughed: "Your Majesty, these are all high-achieving students in the hall of Beijing Normal University!" ”
