With the passage of time, the wave of immigration triggered by the Mazu Temple gradually spread from the common people to the gentry and merchant groups in Quanzhou. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shanhai County's beautiful natural environment, reasonable urban planning, good public security, clean government affairs, strong business atmosphere and cultural connotation all attracted the attention of the gentry and businessmen.

Southwest University Hall, Yellow Emperor Temple, Zhaoxian Hall, Shangding and other buildings, all of which attract people's attention.

Only then did they discover that beyond the wilderness, there was such a paradise.

Shanhai County is thirsty for talents, and the two sides hit it off.

As if opening a floodgate, after the common people, a large number of gentry and merchants began to choose to settle in Shanhai County. Among them, there are not only children from poor families, but also literati and scholars, many of whom are talented; After settling down, he either entered the Southwest University Hall or entered the official career.

Because of Jiang Shang's existence, the Southwest University Hall was more attractive to literati and scholars, and most of the scholars from poor families chose to go out.

The merchant group opened shops in Shanhai County. Some businessmen with a keen sense of smell even specialize in the business of Mazu Temple, specializing in selling goods such as incense and candles for worship, making a lot of money.

After a detailed inspection of Shanhai County, especially seeing that Cui's Chamber of Commerce is booming in Shanhai County, some chambers of commerce in Quanzhou also moved the idea of opening a branch in Shanhai County.

The flow of people has brought a large number of guests to the newly opened Shanhai Garden, which is really envious of others.

Faced with such a good opportunity, Ouyang Shuo immediately informed Xu Zhenchang, director of the Department of Commerce, and asked the Department of Commerce to prepare an investment conference to introduce in detail the investment policy and business environment of Shanhai County and attract major chambers of commerce to settle in.

The Administration Department was not idle, and cooperated with the Department of Household Registration to hold a talent recruitment meeting to select talents and enrich the various departments and offices of Shanhai County and the affiliated territories.

In short, the wave of immigrants triggered by the Mazu Temple was far better than the previous talent recruitment action carried out by the Cui Chamber of Commerce in Dali, which made Ouyang Shuo feel very good.

The grand occasion in front of us confirms an old saying: if you have the intention to plant flowers and flowers, you will not bloom, and you will have no intention of planting willows and willows.

The abundant talent reserve has laid a solid foundation for Shanhai County to be promoted to the county seat.

Ouyang Shuo is still worried about the new round of talent shortage after the promotion of the territory to the county seat, according to the current immigration trend, it is more than enough, and there is no need to worry about the shortage of talents.

As for the original Mazu temple fair, with the full support of various chambers of commerce in Quanzhou, it was held with unprecedented pomp.

The huge influence of Mazu even alarmed the Quanzhou Imperial Court, and specially sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to Shanhai County to inspect and send the "Mazu Temple" plaque given by the emperor.

In this way, the Mazu faith has been spread explosively.

What made Ouyang Shuo ecstatic was that the Mazu Temple was blessed by incense and directly unsealed in one step.

"System prompt: The statue of Mazu is blessed by incense, officially unsealed, restored to its original appearance, the divine power has increased greatly, and the attributes of the Mazu Temple have been greatly improved, please check it for yourself."

At this time, the statue of Mazu emitted bursts of soft divine light, which could be seen from afar. Such a miracle made a group of believers who were worshipping in the temple burst into tears of excitement.

The second miracle of the Mazu Temple once again set off the climax of the Mazu belief in Quanzhou.

The wave of immigration, which has just subsided, has once again set off wave after wave of peaks. The people of Quanzhou are convinced that it was their piety that moved Mazu, so as to send down miracles and bless believers.

Ouyang Shuo took the time to check the properties of the Mazu Temple, and the result made him very satisfied.

[Name]: Mazu Temple

[Type]: Hidden building

[Function]: Spread the belief of Mazu, improve the satisfaction of residents by 30%, and increase the popularity of the territory by 10%

[Characteristics]: Blessing of the sea god (40% increase in the fleet's ability to resist storms at sea), ride the wind and waves (increase the speed of the ship by 30%)

[Evaluation]: Mazu, a belief in the god of the sea centered on the southeast coast of China.

After the unsealing of the Mazu Temple, the architectural function has been greatly improved, and not only that, but also derived a second architectural feature [Riding the Wind and Waves] to increase the speed of ships.

Worthy of being the god of the sea, the sailors of Shanhai County have the blessing of these two characteristics and dominate the ocean, which is not far away.

With the unsealing of the Mazu Temple, this Mazu event has drawn a successful end. Mazu Temple has also become an important bridge between Quanzhou and Shanhai County.

Although the event came to an end, the aftermath did not stop.

Although the peak of immigration has passed, hundreds of Quanzhou aborigines still rush to Shanhai County every day to worship Mazu or settle here.

As Shanhai County gradually became familiar with Quanzhou, the immigrant group has long since spread from pure faithful believers to talents from all walks of life who come to Shanhai County to make a living.

A scene that happened in Shanhai County made the lords of the world look sideways, envy and envy, slander, and sincerely congratulate.

No matter what the outside world says, Ouyang Shuo will not move. After the Mazu temple fair ended, Ouyang Shuo handed over the matter of immigration and investment promotion to the Administration Department and the Finance Department, and no longer cared about it.

The recruited outstanding talents will also be temporarily placed by Fan Zhongyan, and after the territory is promoted to the county seat, unified arrangements will be made.

The transformation of the county seat into the county seat is a qualitative breakthrough, and there must be a major innovation in the government affairs structure. The relevant personnel layout has been brewing in Ouyang Shuo's mind.

************

After the event, Ouyang Shuo's gaze began to turn to Mission 4 [Legion Trial].

[Legion Trial] requires a division to pass the Legion Trial, Shanhai County currently has only one division, it stands to reason that there is nothing to hesitate about, directly arrange the first division trial.

The problem was that Ouyang Shuo hesitated after looking at the system's settings for the Legion Trial in detail.

According to the system settings, units at and above the division level can conduct clan trials, and after the trials are successful, they will obtain exclusive clan specialties and be awarded military flags.

The crux of the matter is that after passing the trial, the non-commissioned officers of the division participating in the trial cannot be mobilized on a large scale except for the dead to replenish the recruits, otherwise, the specialties obtained will automatically become invalid.

This setting is to prevent some lords from taking advantage of the loopholes and using the elite troops of the territory to cheat and help other divisions complete the trial.

The establishment of the First Division in Shanhai County was nothing but an expedient measure. The 1st Division is scattered in three large camps in the west, north, and east of the city, and is not subordinate to each other, and will definitely be split in the future.

The [Legion Trial] task forced Ouyang Shuo to reorganize the army in advance. He handed over this task to Bai Qi, who was solely responsible for it, with Ge Hongliang, the director of military affairs, assisting him.

Bai Qi's position is still undecided, and Ouyang Shuo only places a temporary position of commander-in-chief of military affairs, which is equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the whole army in wartime, and authorizes Bai Qi to lead the army of Shanhai County with full authority.

Since coming to Shanhai County, Bai Qi has traveled to the three major camps in the west, north and east of the city, in addition to staying in the new barracks in the western suburbs, and has inspected the troops in Shanhai County.

After a week of field investigation and deliberation, Bai Qi finally came up with his army adjustment plan.

In the study room of the Hou Mansion, there are only three people, Ouyang Shuo, Bai Qi and Ge Hongliang, which shows the high level of this meeting.

Bai Qi did not directly throw out the army adjustment plan, but first elaborated on the problems he found: "After investigation, I found that there are several major problems in the army of Shanhai County:

First, there is an uneven mix of troops, with more cavalry and less infantry. The 1st Division, including the Janissaries Brigade and the Independent Brigade, had five cavalry brigades out of seven brigades, not including the light cavalry battalions deployed in the 1st and 3rd Brigades. Cavalry, occupying seven to eighty percent.

Second, no attention has been paid to reconnaissance and logistics. Not only did each brigade not have a special reconnaissance scout and a firehead army, but even the first division did not have such an establishment, which is really incredible.

The Military Intelligence Department is responsible for the military intelligence reconnaissance in front of the station, and the reconnaissance in wartime should be completed by the participating troops. Military food pills cannot completely replace the role of grain and grass, and the Huotou Army has the necessity of its existence.

Third, the light and heavy are mixed, and the mixed arrangement of foot and riding is serious. For example, the 1st and 4th Brigades, which were stationed in the camp west of the city, included both the mountain barbarian hoplites, who marched extremely slowly, and the light cavalry, which was known for their speed. As a result, the overall marching speed was completely dragged down by the mountain barbarian hoplites, and the superiority of the light cavalry was buried.

Fourth, there are few types of troops. In the entire division, there are only light and heavy cavalry, sword and shield soldiers, spearmen and archers, and crossbowmen, pikemen, sword and shield soldiers and other types of troops are extinct. ”

Bai Qi's analysis made Ouyang Shuo ashamed. Originally, he was extremely proud of the reorganization of his army, but now it seems that it is full of loopholes and bullshit.

Ouyang Shuo stood up solemnly and saluted to Baiqi: "Please also ask the general to give advice!" ”

Ge Hongliang is also red-faced, as the director of military affairs, he has not fulfilled his obligation to assist the prince and improve the structure of the army, which is really incompetent.

It's no wonder that Ge Hongliang, he was only a staff officer of a brigade in the official army before, and his knowledge of how to handle such a huge army is limited.

In addition to Ge Hongliang, it is the three historical generals who have the ability to remind Ouyang Shuo.

Shi Wansui is considered to be the one with the highest military literacy among the three generals, but with his temperament, even if he realizes that it may be inappropriate, he will not think deeply, as long as he can fight, what to do.

Not to mention the evil, born in the Shang Dynasty, military theories are still in the embryonic state, and he is a fierce general, how to understand these Laoshzi.

Luo Shixin had just joined the army not long ago, and his qualifications were still young, so he would not speak falsely.

In this way, the situation in front of him was created, and Ouyang Shuo, a layman, reorganized the army step by step according to his own understanding, and developed to the current scale.

If you think about it, it's not easy.

It wasn't until Bai Qi's arrival that the fragile side of the Shanhai County army was completely exposed.

Ouyang Shuo couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, glad that before Shanhai County expanded the army again, before the army had developed to an uncontrollable situation, he got up in white and went to Shanhai County. (To be continued.) )
