Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 247 Anti-corruption situation ([-])

More than ten days later, Liu Ye thoroughly investigated Yecheng's taxation items and found that the government treasury's reserves had increased by one-third of the income.

Han Fu also sent people to check the accounts in various counties and counties, and almost all of them were full of money and food, and their income was comparable to that of a good year.

This also discredited Han Fu, because under his rule, there were so many corrupt officials in Yecheng!

Although these corrupt officials are greedy, they are also people who cherish their lives. They must try their best to protect themselves when the blade is on their necks.

There are also a few corrupt officials who have corrupted too much and hanged themselves at home in order to save their last face.

All the family wealth was confiscated, and Han Fu showed no mercy.

In the main hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion, Han Wu sat on the second seat, listening to Liu Ye's report with his father on the honored seat.

Liu Ye reported the situation of every county near Yecheng, and then delivered the bamboo slips to Han Fu.

Han Wu smiled slightly, and said directly: "Very good! I think this will perfectly limit the corruption in counties and counties near Yecheng."

"While punishing corruption requires iron and blood, high salaries are equally important. Ensuring survival is an important aspect for these officials not to be greedy."

"From today, the salaries of all the county officials who have been thoroughly investigated will be increased by half. It seems that this is more than enough."

"As long as these officials are not corrupt, even if the salaries are doubled, the income of the State Shepherd's Office can also be doubled."

As Han Wu spoke calmly, even Han Fu couldn't help but sigh in surprise.

Just the situation of Yecheng and the renovation of the three nearby counties gave the official treasury an extra income of 500 taels of silver!

500 taels of silver is equivalent to half a year's income for the entire Jizhou.

Han Fu sighed, and said, "Then let's increase the salary! But we can't conduct a second thorough investigation within three years, and the impact will definitely be greater."

"As for other places in Jizhou, we should also check, and we should start with Bohai County first."

"Wu'er, let General Zhu Ling lead the troops to Bohai County! He cooperates with Tian Feng to check the accounts, and it will have very good results."

"And it is said that your admiral, Qi Jiguang, is also in Bohai County, and the aristocratic families there should not make trouble."

Han Fu is still very worried about the situation in Bohai County, but after all, it has already belonged to Jizhou.

Before Bohai County was under the rule of Yuan Shao, even after it was attached to Jizhou, it was not honest.

Han Wu nodded slightly, and said, "It's not impossible to govern Bohai County, but we must be careful."

"After all, Bohai County was under Yuan Shao's jurisdiction before, and the aristocratic families there must have been involved in corruption and bribery in the past."

"If we start to investigate, let's only investigate the situation in the past three years! If we find out the period under Yuan Shao's jurisdiction, I'm afraid it will cause public outrage."

"Liu Ye, tell General Zhu Ling to take three thousand Jizhou elites to Bohai County in three days to assist Mr. Tian Feng in thoroughly investigating officials' corruption and bribery."

Han Wu directly ordered Liu Ye to inform Zhu Ling.

Han Fu did not have the right to control the army, so Han Wu had to order it himself.

Clenching his fists, Han Wu continued, "Father, although there is a lot of income around Yecheng, the money has to be transported to Bingzhou."

"Bingzhou is guarded by General Yuwen Chengdu and General Chen Qingzhi. Although it is solid, it is a waste of talents."

"Chen Qing alone is enough to protect the entire Bingzhou, but he lacks money and food, so he can't take the initiative to fight, and he is hindered at once."

"This time, part of the money will be sent to Bingzhou, and General Yuwen Chengdu will be able to go south to occupy the Hetao area in a year's time."

Han Wu narrowed his eyes, he really wanted to squeeze out more troops to deal with Cao Cao.

If Cao Cao has really led his troops to take Hanzhong and Xishu, then Han Wu must move.

Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army is definitely capable of crushing the Huns, after all, he is a famous white-robed general in history!

Great generals and famous teachers should not be imprisoned, thousands of troops and horses should avoid white robes.

These words are not just words.

"Okay! Then, as a father, let people send part of the money to Shangdang County, and let Zhang Yang of Shangdang County send a large amount of money to Chen Qingzhi."

"The above party county is used as a transfer point, and the money can reach Chen Qingzhi within a month."

"However, Wu'er must ask the bloodthirsty tiger guards to escort this part of the money and food to avoid major problems."

Han Wu nodded slightly after hearing his father's words, and agreed.

The third battalion of Bloodthirsty Tiger Guards didn't usually train much, so it was just right for them to escort money and food.

Two days later, in Jiuyuan County of Bingzhou, Chen Qingzhi excitedly watched the report from Shangdang County.

"It's really great! Your lord is really wise, and you actually delivered so much money and food!"

"Wang Shuang, start recruiting troops immediately, I want to expand the army!"

"My lord's meaning is obvious. He hopes that I can guard Bingzhou by myself so that General Yuwen Chengdu can have a chance to go south!"

Wang Shuang is a young general from Longxi. He moved his family to live here because he heard that Bingzhou was free from the invasion of foreign races in the grassland.

Because of his bravery against the white robe army, he was favored by Chen Qingzhi, and he was hired as a lieutenant under his command.

Wang Shuang was an honest man, so he immediately took orders and prepared to recruit soldiers.

Chen Qingzhi smiled, and thought in his heart: "My lord is indeed wise! Starting today, the White Robe Army will begin to be established."

"As long as there are [-] white-robed troops, I, Chen Qingzhi, can once again kill the barbarians so that no one dares to go south to herd horses!"

With a confident smile, Chen Qingzhi coughed a few times, and began to write a letter of thanks to the lord himself.

Bingzhou Grassland is about to fall into a bloodbath.

It's just that this blood will be the blood of the Huns!

In the city of Changsha in the east of the Yangtze River, white cloths were hung all over the city to mourn the death of Sun Jian.

Sun Quan was kneeling in his residence, but he didn't look so depressed.

"Zijing, my eldest brother has been sluggish every day since the last few days of guarding the spirit. It seems that he will not be able to manage government affairs in a short time."

"Uncle Huang Gai, Uncle Han Dang, and Uncle Cheng Pu are in charge of the army. Now is the time for us to act."

"If I can take over Jiangdong's government affairs at this time, I will have enough capital to compete with my brother for the position of heir."

After Lu Su heard the Lord's words, he also nodded slightly, agreeing very much.

"My lord, now is indeed the time for you to act, but remember not to touch military affairs."

"Although your elder brother doesn't care about these things, that Zhou Gongjin is a cautious person."

"If Zhou Gongjin starts to be wary of us, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome, and even government affairs will be affected."

"Young Master should start visiting General Zu Mao this afternoon. He is a straightforward person with a true temperament, and it is easier to win relationships."

Sun Quan nodded slightly, and replied: "You are right! Although my elder brother and I are legitimate sons, no one can compare to the status of the four uncles in the army."

"The four uncles are old people who have followed my father for many years. They are the soul of Jiangdong Army!"

"As long as I have the support of the four of them, I, Sun Zhongmou, am not afraid of not getting the title of Marquis of Wu Cheng!"

With a fierce look in his eyes, Sun Quan is about to start planning.

A small amount is not a gentleman, and non-toxic is not a husband!
If you want to get the whole Jiangdong, you have to be ruthless, no matter how ruthless.
