Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 381: Wang Ziteng assists, Jia Zheng becomes Viscount of Beihai

While Jia Lun was thinking about his plan for the Northeast Islands, both the general and the people in Shenjing City were in turmoil because of the news he gave them.

General Wang Ziteng wanted to deal with the Jia family ever since he came to the Northeast. However, this guy has been trying for such a long time, and not only has he failed to deal with them, he has also allowed them to prosper and achieve many remarkable feats.

This is also the reason why he sent Wang Ren from the Wang family to try to trick this kid, but he didn't expect that after such a long time, there was no news from Wang Ren. He was really a waste.

Just now he received news from the enemy that Wang Ren from their Wang family had been captured, and now they were coming to discuss with him how to rescue Wang Ren. This still gave him a headache, and at this moment, a new piece of news made him even more uncomfortable.

The Jia family boy who had just captured a lot of enemies sent by them actually solved hundreds of thousands of civilians at one time. After rescuing them, they arranged them on the Northeast Overseas Islands, and even captured four to five thousand enemy troops at one time. If these people were sent to Shenjing City, it would definitely be a sensation.

Wang Zhiteng really wanted to take the credit for this achievement and wanted to take credit for everything, but he knew that he simply couldn't do that. While this guy was sending him the message, he had also arranged for several teams to deliver the information to the capital. If he dared to do anything, then he would no longer be a general.

It's just that seeing that this kid has been making contributions all the time, and now his contributions are greater than his own, he really can't accept it. What if one day this kid's contributions are too great and surpass his own, wouldn't he lose all his face then?

It was with this thought in mind that when he saw the letter from that boy, he couldn't help but feel moved.

In the letter that Jia Qiong wrote to Wang Zhicheng, he clearly stated that he had already reported this achievement to His Majesty, and hoped that everything would be decided upon. At the same time, he also told his plan, and implicitly proposed to build up overseas archipelago strength in the northeast, hoping to incorporate this area into the Zhongzhou Empire. Although there were only a few hundred thousand people in these overseas archipelagos, more than 100,000 of these hundreds of thousands of people were sent to the Donglai Peninsula.

The final remaining population may be less than 100,000, but even this number is a huge one. With nearly 100,000 people and more than 10,000 troops, if this guy has a foothold in the Northeast overseas, he can be said to have become a real local emperor. Many people would not even be willing to exchange him for being a prime minister.

If this kid really succeeds, he will become the local tyrant of Northeast China overseas. Although his existence will pose a huge threat to the magazine, it will also allow this kid to rise to the top overnight. To be honest, Wang Ziteng is unwilling to help.

But the boy said clearly in his heart that if this goal could not be achieved, he would leave Pi Island and join Captain America. Wang Ziteng had seen this boy's ability to make meritorious contributions. If he really let him join his team, it would not take long for him to rise to the top and soon become Tomie, or even replace himself and become the general of the entire army. In that case, Wang Ziteng would really lose face.

After realizing this, he immediately took out his pen and ink.

"Since we can't suppress this kid, then we have to listen to him. We can restrict this kid to the northeastern overseas area and make him the King of the Northeast, or the King of the North Sea. In this way, he won't be able to interfere with my Northern Legion again." "But even if I give you the title or status of the King of the North Sea, I can't give you this honor. So, if you want to take advantage of this, it's absolutely impossible. I will write to His Majesty now and ask him to grant your viscount a territory, which is the North Sea, and let you be the Viscount of the North Sea."

Wang Ziteng quickly wrote the memorial and had someone send it to the capital at full speed. By then, His Majesty the Emperor in the capital had already received the news about the Northeast. He was very happy to know that 200,000 to 300,000 people had been rescued and more than 100,000 had been sent to the Denglai Peninsula. This was a huge achievement and a huge gain, and it would inject a shot in the arm for the war on the front line. How could His Majesty the Emperor not be happy?
However, His Majesty the Emperor was a little hesitant about resettling the people on the islands in the North Sea, because no matter who this area was allocated to, no one would be willing to manage it. Without anyone to manage it, these people would be a loose sand and would not be able to put any pressure on the enemies in the northeast. So he was a little conflicted for a while, and he brought up this matter at the morning court today.

He wanted the whole court to be powerful and to select a few capable people to manage the North Sea Islands, so that the people and soldiers on these islands could become a secret team of the Great Zhou Empire and bring more benefits to the Great Zhou Empire. Unfortunately, although the court was full of powerful civil and military officials, no one arranged for reserve sons to go there.

At this moment, Wang Ziteng's new gift was delivered at full speed. After the Emperor saw it, he laughed and said.

"Since all of you are unwilling to go, I will decide this matter myself. It is indeed inappropriate to assign someone to guard the North Sea area. It is better to assign someone familiar to us, but we have always forgotten this familiar person."

"The kid from the Jia family has made great contributions in the Northeast, and he rescued these people. If he is allowed to take charge of this area, these people will definitely be willing to listen to him. In addition, the kid from the Jia family is intuitive. I only gave him a title but no title before. So now I will grant him the title of Viscount of Beihai. From now on, Beihai will be his territory and his subjects."

Originally, no one would agree to such a proposal, and even giving such a large territory to a viscount would not be recognized. But now all the civil and military officials in the court know that the North Sea is a hot disaster area, facing not only risks at sea, but also enemies on three sides.

Tartars, Koreans, and devils.

These three countries were all eyeing the Great Zhou Empire, and the North Sea was close to them. Whoever became the ruler of the North Sea would have to face the pressure from the three countries, so whoever got this place would be in trouble, so naturally they had no intention of refusing.

Many of them were even happy to see it happen, so the matter was settled.

When the eunuch on the ship arrived at Shanhaiguan with the imperial edict, Wang Ziteng warmly invited them to a big meal and then arranged for someone to personally send them to Pi Island.

There was only one thing he had to do, and that was to make that kid leave the Northern Frontier Legion forever and stay in his North Sea honestly.
