After many years of stability in Jinyang, many buildings with accompaniment emerged outside the city.
From a military perspective, this is harmful because it is convenient for the enemy to use local materials and even climb up.
So after the electric disaster smashed many houses, Shao Guang, who had been promoted from Taiyuan Prefect to Bingzhou, ordered the cleaning and moved it to a place one mile away from the city.
This was the scene when Shao Jin arrived in Puyang.
Bingzhou has almost become a family in Shao’s family now.
Shao Guang, a member of the Shaoxun clan, has been serving as the prefect of Taiyuan for many years. This year, he is absent from the governor and is promoted on the spot, and is still stationed in Jinyang.
The clan nephew, Marshal Jie, started as the commander of Ye County, and then served as the commander of Jiuyuan. Now he has taken over Shao Guang's stance and served as the prefect of Taiyuan.
Bingzhou, a place that has been repeatedly destroyed by war, has become one of the most important foundations of the family under the strong management of Shaw Brothers.
Those who have established their capital in Luoyang and Yicheng must manage Taiyuan.
"Your Highness."
"Envoy."
Outside Jinyang City, officials led by the governor Shao Guang went out of the city to greet each other and had some greetings.
In addition to officials, there are local wealthy families, but Sun Bi, the son of the Sun family, is the eldest brother of Sun Huan, the Xinxing Prefect.
Logically speaking, the largest gentry in Taiyuan should have moved to Yangjian Yangjingqi family after splitting up, and they all settled in Jinyang.
However, Yang Jian died of illness at the beginning of the year when he was in charge of the governor of Jizhou, so he stayed at the mourning family, but could not come to welcome the King of Qin.
But the second wealthy family after the Yang family was actually the Sun family?
Shao Jin was also surprised when he saw it.
The Sun family in Taiyuan was still a bit famous in this dynasty, but it was not a good reputation.
Back then, Liu Kun and the Huns repeatedly tug-of-war in Taiyuan, and then the Liang army fought fiercely with the Huns. After twenty years of shaving the moon and rubbing, the big clan couldn't stand it.
There were only a few hundred villages left in the main lineage of Sun's family, and later Shao Guang took over the child servants' team.
The Sun family's branch was even worse, so Sun Jue got into the farming ground, but he was soon attracted by Liu Runzhong, took a large dowry and married a wife who was seven years younger than him, which made him a joke.
The Sun family is actually the second largest clan after the Yang family.
At this point, Shao Jin had a deeper understanding of the situation in Bingzhou.
Someone told him that the Bingzhou clan had withered, but the dry sentence was far less shocking than actually seen. In addition, the fact that the subordinates mentioned that the Linghu family wanted to farm on their own, the Taiyuan gentry was really over. At least they became the scholar-officials who were purely inherited from the classics of the Later Han Dynasty. They just didn't know how they had achieved in the classics.
After the greetings, the three Shaos took the same car and entered Jinyang City.
The ox cart is very slow, and Shao Guang will introduce it carefully whenever he goes to.
"Your Highness, that's the arsenal." Shao Guang pointed to a high-walled courtyard guarded by heavy troops and said, "There are only three thousand county soldiers in Taiyuan, but the arsenal contains 1,200 spears, 2,000 horses, and 2,400 large shields in infantry.
The horse army had two thousand round shields, two thousand four hundred crossbows, seven thousand two hundred strings, twelve thousand arrows, twelve thousand bow tips, thirty thousand strings, thirty six thousand arrows, thirty six thousand arrows, 10,000 ring-headed swords, 1,200 heavy swords, 1,200 long-handled axes, and cotton clothes..."
Shao Jin thoughtfully made up and said, "Your Majesty led the right camp of Silver Spear and the Black Sales Central Camp to the north. He came empty-handed and directly used the Jinyang Arsenal Equipment."
When Shao Guang heard this, he couldn't help but look at Shao Jin more. King Qin was very versatile. This was the weapon prepared for troops like the 12,000 imperial guards.
"The previous period was in Anding to quell the rebellion, and I had some understanding of the cost of the army," said Shao Jin.
Shao Guang nodded with relief.
After walking for a while, Shao Guang pointed to another place and said, "This is Puyang Okura, not belonging to Sinong Temple.
It can provide 12,000 soldiers with one year. It has 400,000 hu of millet, wheat and 6,750 hu of salt. In addition,
There are still 1.35 million hu of millet, wheat, grain, and beans and 13,000 hu of coarse salt. If war begins, we will collect hay.
Millions of bundles."
Horses can eat more than people, but this warehouse is equipped with food according to the standards of one person and two horses.
"Disaster relief the day before yesterday-" Shao Jin said.
"Twenty hundred thousand hu have been allocated." Shao Guang said seriously: "The remaining servants dare not move, and will make up for it as soon as possible. This is a preparation for Shaw's rebellion."
Shao Jin didn't ask again.
The clan uncle really put his heart into it. No wonder his father kept asking him to work in Puyang and was slowly promoted to the governor of Bingzhou.
The ox cart finally stopped in front of the governor's mansion.
In fact, not only the governor's mansion, but also the prefect's mansion, but also the county government office, working together.
Shao Guang pointed to the vast courtyard and said, "The emperor ordered the emperor to set up the left and right storages of Puyang. The silk cloth collected by the counties of Bingzhou are stored here and used at any time. There are 80,000 pieces of silk on the left and 100,000 pieces of linen on the left, and most of them are variegated objects, such as saddles, gold and silver utensils, gold and silver utensils, colorful silk and brocades, food utensils, wine bottles, high-quality bedding, brocade tents, white felts, etc.."
"As soon as there is a war, the resources of Bingzhou will be stopped immediately and all of them will be collected here as military rewards."
"The eight prefectures of Taiyuan, the three prefectures of Xinxing, the two prefectures of Yanmen, the Dai County, and Guangning each have a total of 15 prefectures and 18,000 lands. Every winter, in addition to the troops who went to war, most of them gathered in Taiyuan to train military formations or go to the mountains to hunt. Those who have the right sect will reward the right sect artifacts for encouragement."
"If the army has no wealth, the soldiers will not come; if the army has no reward, the soldiers will not come. Your Highness, this is the foundation of Shaw Brothers."
Shao Jin was a little excited when he heard this, but also a little ashamed. He didn't know how many years his father had been working on Bingzhou.
Yes, Tuoba Xianbei is there, how could Bingzhou not be managed hard?
My clan uncle started out as a military camp lieutenant and stayed in Puyang for so many years. It seems that he is deeply trusted by his father.
The sixteen-year-old boy is at the age of fantasy. If one day I will command these 20,000 elite soldiers, how happy it would be!
After suppressing the rebellion in Guanzhong, Shao Jin had a very intuitive understanding of the differences between the troops. For example, the eight thousand army with excellent equipment, sufficient rewards, sufficient training and rich war experience, if they fight those farmers who were temporarily pulled up, they may be able to fight 180,000!
No wonder the Hu people here are so tranquil, no wonder no wonder Shao Guang was also quietly looking at this clan nephew, who is so beautiful.
As a descendant of the royal family, he did not want to get involved in certain things, but the King of Qin was the child of the emperor and Empress Yu after all, and the possibility of inheriting the throne was the greatest, so he had to pay attention to it.
Besides, he was also thinking about the intention of the emperor to send the King of Qin to Bingzhou to provide disaster relief. He should have a good time to spend in the next period of time, and he had time to observe.
I just hope that the King of Qin can understand that Shaw Brothers's foundation is hard-won and that the prosperity of Bingzhou will not be broken.
*******
The luncheon has begun.
Shao Guang and Shao Jie introduced their wives and children. Shao Jin gave gifts to each other and did not mention them. In fact, these people have seen each other several times, but they were not deeply impressed.
"The north is not peaceful." Shao Guang pulled the two of them to sit under the trees in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air, saying, "In recent days, Yanmen has reported many times that the people of Hu and Han in the country have flowed into the pass, and the crowd has reached 3,000."
"Why?" Shao Jin asked.
"There are tribal rebellions near Pingcheng. The soldiers quelled the rebellion. The two sides fought fiercely. Many people went south to Yanmen to avoid the disaster." Shao Guang said, "I have sent people to close the city and strictly prohibited entry and exit."
"The prefect of Dingxiang was assassinated while hunting. This is a member of the Wang clan." Shao Jie added, "Shengle is from Dingxiang County."
"Is there anything wrong with Sheng Le?" Shao Jin asked.
"There is a Wuhuan tribe near Shengle, so there is no danger for the time being." Shao Jie said: "Wang's rule, and the Wuhuan people have benefited a lot."
Shao Jin nodded, it seemed that the Wuhuan people were still reliable.
My mother often said that the wife of Dai Guo Tai, Wang, was so arrogant and despised. She had no ability except to confuse her father, and might not be true.
She was born in the Wuhuan clan and won over the Wuhuan people very well. This is her ability.
Don’t think that the Wuhuan people should be natural and obey the Wuhuan clan. This is not necessarily the case. Shao Jin has seen a lot in Guanxi. The Qiang people, the king and the chief, can only win over some of them, and the whole thing is divided.
Yao Laoyi and Yao Yizhong are among the most prestigious and able to win over people, but they are still worse than the Wang family's rule over the Wuhuan people.
Of course, everything has two sides.
Since the Wang family gave the Wuhuan people a lot of benefits, it will naturally make the Xianbei people dissatisfied, and there is nothing we can do about this.
"In fact, it's not only the Wuhuan people. The Pu tribe and Daxi tribe in the Xianbei region have always been obeyed by the orders of the Wang tribe. The Tuoba tribe has been remediated for so many years, and people have different people. Some people have also turned to the Wang tribe. Wuyuan and Liangcheng are governed by the Wang tribe and the Shanyu prefecture, which is also a reliable force. However, the Wuyuan tribe has only a thousand soldiers, and the people are only Fang Yu, and they are still weaker. Liangcheng tribes are 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, and 3,000 soldiers have been trained for many years, which can be a battle." Shao Guang shook his head and said, "Originally, if the Wang tribe is not attacked by the crowd, she can maintain it. After all, there are still many people in Pingcheng who are not affiliated with the tribes, but only return to the court. The guards and the guards suppress the capital, which is not a big problem."
"Speaking of it," Shao Guang finally sighed and said, "Mrs. Wang's luck is not good. Why did Wingjian take charge of the government in the corner? He caught up with the strong wind and frost. Perhaps someone secretly instigated him, so that he could do so."
When Shao Jin heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Why don't the Dai State abolish the vassal state and establish the county?"
Shao Guang was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and said, "Your Highness is very much. However, the only ones that can place Jimo County are only Mayi and Liangcheng, which is a relatively good grasp. Yunzhong, the two counties and states in Wuyuan are hard to say, but the calculation is not small. Dingxiang, Shuofang, and Hexi counties are almost impossible. As for the mountain behind, let's forget it. The gains and losses are not included in the process.
It is difficult to describe. Although I have been in Puyang for many years and have always heard of the events of Daibei, I dare not make a conclusion. There are gains and losses.
There are gains and losses——”
"I think the loss is greater than the gain." Shao Jie said: "Once the vassal state is abolished and the county is established, as Cong Shu said, only Mayi and Liangcheng are more secure, and there is some possibility in Yunzhong, but I think Wuyuan will be captured by the Hu people, and the court will be out of reach. By then, the tribes will be out of control and will be lawless. The court's military, financial and manpower will be consumed in the north."
"It's always a solution, it's not a solution to keep dragging it." Shao Guang shook his head and said, "But this matter has to be decided by His Majesty."
Shao Jin listened quietly, constantly absorbing the nutrition from the two of them.
This is a rough matter. Listen to what others think and what the reasons are. It is actually quite interesting.
But he will not express his opinion, just listen and observe silently.
On the third day of the sixth month, news came from the south: the emperor had entered the territory of Taiyuan County.
At this time, the number of Hu Handingzhuang who gathered one after another had expanded to 30,000.
On the fourth day of the lunar month, the fourth battalion of the Huangtou Army arrived in Kelan County on the night that day, tens of thousands of soldiers from the left-rank guards of the palace also arrived in Kelan.
