Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 291
"The governor's destiny belongs to him, and he should follow the heavens to respond to others, so as to inherit the great position." Empress Dong took the jade seal and offered it with both hands.

Jiang Gan and others still had illusions, but this queen was quite wise.

"How dare I have such unreasonable thoughts?" Li Yue was also fortunate to meet a sensible person.

What is left of Ran Wei today?
Even if Li Yue doesn't come, Yecheng will collapse on its own.

"Your Majesty was captured, the city was besieged by Yan thieves, and when the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, if the governor hadn't tried his best to turn the tide, the Ran family would be invincible. It is also heard that the governor's benevolence is lonely in the deep palace. Millions of people in Yecheng are waiting to be fed. The only one who can solve this calamity is the governor." Dong's face was calm, and it was obvious that he had thought everything through.

Ran Min has a bad personality, but the woman he marries understands righteousness.

Li Yue sighed, "I absolutely dare not."

Eating appearance is very important. After Ran Min took power, he was unscrupulous, laying the groundwork for his downfall.

It's okay to replace Ran Wei, but there's no need to be so hasty.

Since Mrs. Dong was so sensible, Li Yue was not in a hurry, and after some excuses, he led his soldiers out of the palace.

Outside the palace, Liu Qun and Dong Run waited for a long time, and when they saw Li Yue exit the palace, their expressions were relieved, "People in Yecheng eat each other, please governor to dispatch food and grass urgently to alleviate the famine in the city."

Li Yue nodded, "Before I came, I ordered Chen Liu to transfer food and grass."

As a warrior, Dong Run was more direct, "Since the governor has entered Ye, he should take care of Jiang Gan, Liu Chong, Miao Song and others. Don't be careless."

Liu Qun said: "When a new governor enters the city, he should put his mind at ease. Jiang Gan and Liu Chong are nothing to be afraid of. The only plan for now is to take over the internal and external power, and then plan other things. The subordinates will enter the palace and ask the queen to decide. .”

It takes a process to accept Ran Wei's forces.

Although Yecheng is under his control, there are still some forces in Hebei who are loyal to Ran Wei.

Especially Chang Shan.

After Zhongshan and Xiangguo were taken by Murong Ke, Changshan became the only barrier of Yecheng.

"Thank you Liu Lingjun." Li Yue cupped his hands.

With people like them doing it for them, Li Yue didn't need to come forward for many things.

Liu Qun was very efficient, and soon got a Yizhi, and named Li Yue the governor of all Chinese and foreign military forces, recorded the affairs of the minister, Jin Lianggong, did not enter the court, worshiped without fame, and went to the palace with his sword.

All the three-piece suits for power and ministers are complete, and you have everything you should have.

Liang Biqi is more reliable.

During the Warring States period, Wei State moved its capital to Daliang, so it was also called Liang State, and Daliang is the area around Chenliu, which can be regarded as the birthplace of Li Yue.

Wei Liang did not separate families, so Liu Qun chose this title with a lot of thought.

Li Yue wanted to get Tang Gong directly, but the titles were all particular, traceable, and mostly based on the region. The ancient Tang Kingdom was in the Bingzhou area, and he really couldn't match him.

In addition, according to Li Yue's instruction, Dong Run was granted the title of Marquis Tao.

Jia Jian is the governor of Xuzhou, the general of the left chariot, and the town of Pengcheng.

Cui Jin, the governor of Qingzhou, the general on the right chariot, Zhenguanggu.

Liu Qi's Yanzhou Inspectorate remains unchanged, Feng Sikong is sealed, and Liu Qun is still the minister.

Zhou Qian was the chief minister of agriculture, and Chang Wei was named the supervisor of Zhongshu.

Wei Shan was the former general, Xu became the left general, Liang Xiao was the right general, and Cao Kan was the rear general.

Qin Biao, Mi Jin, and Gao Yun were all named generals.

With the Jade Seal of Chuanguo in your hands, naturally you can't just seal your own people, outsiders can also seal them specially.

Zhang Yudu supervised the military affairs of the four prefectures of Henan, Luo, Jingyang, and was granted the title of Duke of Yingchuan.

Li Du of Changshan was granted the title of General of the Bandits.

As long as the rest of Hebei forces, large and small, have not surrendered to the Murong family, they will all become officials and make a wish.

However, there are also two forces that are not easy to seal.

One is Su Lin, who calls himself the Son of Heaven in Zhongshan, and the other is Wang Wu, who calls himself King An in Lukou.

Su Lin was flanked by Murong Ke and Mu Yugen's 15 troops, and he was almost defeated.

Even if Li Yue wanted to rescue him, he was powerless.

But King Wu of Lukou couldn't give up. He held the northeast gate of Jizhou in his hand and blocked Murong Chui several times.

Li Yue resisted all the arguments, directly stamped the jade seal, gave Wang Wu a justifiable King An, and asked Bohai to send up [-] shi of grain.

With the current situation, not to mention that Wang Wu only needs King An, even if he wants the Heavenly King Lao Tzu, Li Yue has to stamp him with a jade seal...

Shangdang Feng An, Changshan Su Yan, Li Du and others all made submissions.

Satisfied, Wang Wu expressed his firm support for the imperial court.

Zhang Yu from Xuchang had some criticisms, and he also knew that Li Yue had no good intentions in giving him the governorship of Jing and Yangzhou, but he still "accepted gladly".

There is nothing to do if you don't accept it, his territory is worse than Li Yue's.

Now that he has turned his back on the Jiangdong gentry, Xie Shang and Xun Xian are in the back left, Huan Wen is in the back right, and Li Yue is on top of his head. Even if he has thoughts in his heart, he can only bear it.

After the award, Li Yue, Cui Jin, Chang Wei, Liu Qun, Dong Run and other important officials immediately rectified the army.

Southern Army and Yanzhou Army are too regional and not suitable.

After some discussion, the Southern Army, Yanzhou Army, and state and county soldiers from all over the country, including Wang Wu's Lukou Army, were all changed to Zhenjun.

It means the guarding army, which is used for reclamation during busy farming and training for slack farming, guarding one side. In case of a big battle, they can gather and go to the battlefield.

The battalions of the left and right middle bases, backbones, Xiaoqi, forwards, guerrillas, and light cavalry in the past have all been expanded into armies, each army has a strength of [-] to [-], and the left and right Habayashi armies have been added.

Li Yue's personal guard battalion was changed to Suwei Army.

Strive to expand to [-] elites, and still adopt the model of Chinese and foreign armies in the Han, Wei, and Jin Dynasties.

Of course, the elite were not so easy to come by. The 9000 defenders in Yecheng were cut down, and more than half of them were gone, leaving only [-] people.

The rest of the troops are selected from the Southern Army and the Yanzhou Army.

Even so, after Cui Jin's budget, there is still a shortfall of [-].

Li Yue directly issued a recruiting order, anyone under [-] and over [-] in the territory who aspires to restore China and expel the Hulu can apply.

Posted together with the recruitment order is the twentieth rank of military merit.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

As long as the benefits are in place and the money and food are sufficient, there is no enemy that cannot be defeated.

The Qin army, the Han army, the Tang army, including the soldiers of the younger generation are all like this. They either give money or land.

Li Yue not only gave land, but also status, slaves, ascending passages, special achievements such as ascending first, beheading generals, and capturing the flag, with clearly marked prices.

As soon as the recruitment order was posted, there was a huge crowd of people in front of the military department in Yecheng, ranging from the elderly in their sixties to children as young as eleven or twelve years old, all came to fight for it.

Li Yue sent out Heiyunlang, Heiyun General, and scouts, and asked them to choose qualified people.

The whole city of Ye was extremely busy.

Liu Qun distributed food and registered the population, Zhou Qian came from Chenliu to reclaim wasteland, Cui Jin and Dong Run were busy recruiting troops.

And Li Yue is also worried about the "harem".

Shi Hu once stipulated that all over the country, women over fifteen years old are ready to enter the palace at any time, and then repeatedly kidnapped civilian women, resulting in more than [-] court ladies in the palace.

The city of Ye was short of food, these court ladies were the first to suffer and became food, and nearly ten thousand people died...

However, there are still 8 people left.

Li Yue collected their wishes, and those who were willing to return to their hometowns would go on their own, and those who did not want to return to their hometowns could marry soldiers as wives and concubines, or marry ordinary people.

As long as they get married, the government will provide private houses. After the households are registered with the people, if they have a son, they will enjoy ten acres of land, and if they have a daughter, they will be rewarded with seven acres of land.

Hebei is full of scorched earth, how can there be their hometown?

Once out of the palace gate, these weak women were either eaten by tigers and wolves, or taken away by thieves everywhere, and they still inevitably became the fate of food.

Therefore, most of them choose to marry the soldiers of the Heiyun Army as their wives and concubines, and a small number of them marry ordinary people of the right age.

On the day of the wedding, Li Yue directly took out the food, regardless of wives and concubines, no one paid two stones of food, which was regarded as dowry.

Just such a small amount of food made these tortured maids cry and kneel down to Li Yue one by one.

In the midst of being busy, Yecheng finally had a glimmer of life.

In Jinfeng Taichung, Li Yue called everyone to discuss state affairs.

Murong Ke and Mu Yugen's 10,000+ army attacked, and Su Lin was destroyed in an instant.

Zhongshan fell into the hands of Yan State again.

Murong Ke regained his strength and deployed heavy troops on the front lines of Xiangguo and Julu. Murong Jun directly took Murong Chui as the prefect of Zhongshan, eyeing Yecheng.

The confrontation between Ran Min and Shi Zhi was replaced by two larger forces from the north and the south.

Yecheng has become the frontier of the military, always under the vanguard of the Yan army.

"I want to move the empress, and the crown prince goes south to Chenliu, what do you guys think?"

In the face of the huge threat from Xiangguo, there is no point in reclamation around Yecheng.

But if the food had to be delivered from Yanzhou, it would take time and effort, and there was a risk of being cut off by the Yan army at any time.

Dong Run said: "Mr. Liang set foot in Hebei, and now he returns to the south of the great river. How will Hebei heroes treat the general?"

In one sentence, Li Yue was blocked to death.

The two major powers in the North and the South are fighting for the front. Whoever takes a step back will be weaker.

In order to fight for the front in China, the Murong family first moved the capital from Longcheng to Jicheng.

"There are more than [-] people in Yecheng and a [-] army. They cannot be self-sufficient, and supplies are difficult. Hebei's struggle for the front is not a matter of one day. You have not seen the old things of your majesty? I suggest you go south." Liu Qun seeks truth from facts.

Most of the generals advocated staying in Yecheng and fighting the Murong family to the death.

The scribes headed by Liu Qun were in favor of going south.

At the time of the stalemate, Zhou Qiandao said: "Xuzhou is rich in land but empty in population. Why didn't Liang Gong relocate the people to enrich the land first? Yecheng can also be a place to garrison troops."

Nearly a million people crowded around Yecheng, and the pressure was extremely high.

But if the people are taken away, all the problems will be solved.

Cui Jindao: "Da Si Nong's words are very kind. Yecheng has been run by the Shi family for more than [-] years. The city is high and deep, with Fangtou and Liyang in the south, and Guangzong in the east. It is enough to fight against the Murong family. The general trend of the world is in place. In Hebei, if Duke Liang returns to Chenliu, the soldiers in the north will have no intention of fighting the enemy to the death."

Since he said so, Li Yue nodded in agreement.

The strongest city on both sides of the river is Yecheng. Shi Hu once felt that his descendants would be safe from generation to generation.
