In the following days, envoys from all over the country brought various gifts to congratulate Wufeng on being named Baisheng Marquis by His Majesty the Emperor and serving as the governor of Qingyang Prefecture. Of course, these people also shouldered different tasks. These people included envoys from nearby prefectures such as Yinchuan Prefecture, Taixuan Prefecture, Guanxi Prefecture, as well as envoys from far-reaching countries such as the Principality of the Trilock, the Sithro Empire, the Kaman Empire, the Five Western Regions, and the Kingdom of Indian De'an. As well as guests in the south, the Lin Family of Sanjiang County, the Lang Family of Tiannan County, the Machikhanate, and the Kingdom of Milan, even the Qiuer, the Numidian, the Tubu people, and the Mots on the East Tengri Grassland also quietly sent envoys. Many powerful people in the imperial capital, including the Third Prince, the Seventh Prince, and the Ninth Prince, also secretly sent people to send gifts. For a time, the small Qingyang City seemed to have become the front desk for the performances of various forces in the East Continent.

Wufeng and Xiao Tang did not expect that an unknown city guard's tenure had touched the nerves of so many forces. After these noble "guests" came to congratulate, they did not leave for a while. They learned about the situation in Qingyang City and waited for Wufeng to meet alone. However, such a situation had not happened for a long time in Qingyang City, so they did not make the necessary preparations. Xiao Tang had to rent houses from the merchants in the city for the envoys and their entourages who came to congratulate them--

The information from the envoys from all over the country that learned about the situation was quickly reflected in Wufeng's ears, but Wufeng did not take any restrictive measures. Instead, he welcomed these people to go and see more and strengthened their defense. Because Wufeng felt that Qingyang Prefecture is blank now, the only thing they could understand was the support of local people for Wufeng. Wufeng was not worried about this, because the warm welcome of the people here can be said to be beyond any place-

At the same time, Wufeng also chose the right time to meet the envoys who came to congratulate him in person and had a separate conversation at their request. The envoys to Yinchuan Prefecture, Taixuan Prefecture, Guanxi County and other places were nothing more than clichés. In addition to congratulations, they hoped to strengthen contacts, communicate with each other, support each other, etc., and to representatives from major forces in the central government of the empire, Wufeng did not dare to neglect and showed great humility. Not only did he express his willingness to obey the arrangements of the empire and all the adults, but he also presented valuable gifts to these representatives, hoping that they could convey their meaning after they returned, especially the representatives of the third prince, the seventh prince, and the ninth prince. Wufeng also held a banquet separately to show his loyalty.

Wufeng was neither humble nor arrogant in his performance, and he was also very enthusiastic about envoys from various countries, especially economic and trade exchanges, and promoted the economic and trade development of both sides. These countries expressed their willingness to live in harmony with the empire, and hoped to set up an agency in Qingyang Prefecture for timely communication. Wufeng readily agreed to the request of these envoys—

Wufeng changed his way to the envoys of the Lin family of Sanjiang and Tiannanlang family. Not only did he show his greedy nature in front of others, but he also made a proud and fulfilled attitude, so that the envoys from these two aspects could not understand their background. Wufeng was very friendly to other nomadic peoples from the Dongtenggeri grassland, and also showed the strong combat power of his troops. When asked about the representatives of these nomadic peoples, Wufeng showed strong confidence and told these representatives that if Luo Bei dared to invade again, they would definitely make them come and go, and hoped that each tribe could conduct fair and reasonable trade with the empire.

When these envoy representatives from all over the country left with their own intelligence, Xiao Tang, Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu's work on forming the government and army was also coming to an end.

On November 25, 691, Mainland China, Wufeng convened Xiao Tang, Molun, Su Minshun, Liang Chongxin, Cui Wenxiu, Mulige, Kamapov, Kang Jianguo and Luman to hold a preparatory meeting before the establishment of the government and the army in the meeting hall of the city guard. "Everyone, the government agencies and the army will be completed in two days. I believe that everyone's work has achieved great results. The tasks I assigned to you have been basically completed. Before the establishment of the government and the army, we must

This preparatory meeting should be held today to have the last discussion on the composition of the government and the army, the current problems, and the upcoming work. I hope that everyone can reflect all the problems in a realistic manner and propose reasonable solutions to lay a solid foundation for future work. Today's meeting minutes will be made by Luman." Wufeng was straight to the point, and he also wanted to hear the progress of his work in various places these days. Are these guys lazy?

"I'd better report to the adults first, let's report on the working conditions of the three of us during this period." Xiao Tang took the initiative to speak-

"Okay, I will also report on the tasks I assigned." Wu Feng nodded and agreed-

"According to the instructions of the Lord, Molun and Minshun, I, the three of us, are mainly focused on establishing government administrative organs. Referring to the establishment of other local institutions in the empire, and in combination with our local actual situation and needs, we will set up eight departments in Qingyang City Shoufu, namely the Administration Office, the Interior Affairs Office, the Finance Office, the Agricultural Administration and Water Resources Office, the Economic Development Office, the Construction Office, the War Readiness Office, and the Culture, Education and Health Department. The Administration Office is mainly responsible for the personnel management of officials at all levels in the government, and the selection, appointment, assessment, inspection, promotion, demotion, dismissal, and exchange of officials at all levels. At the same time, the Administration Office must guide the work of other departments and formulate practical policies.

The Administration Office also supervises the implementation of various policies at the level. The Interior Affairs Office has an Intelligence Bureau, a Police Department, a Security Bureau, an Audit Office, an Supervision Department, and an Intelligence Bureau are responsible for the collection, sorting and analysis of all aspects of intelligence, providing reference for the decision-making of the city guard; the Police Office is responsible for the daily social security work, the reconnaissance of ordinary criminal and public security cases and the mediation of general civil disputes by its subordinate agencies; the Security Bureau is mainly responsible for the reconnaissance of hostile forces at home and abroad in Qingyang Prefecture; the Trial Bureau is mainly responsible for the criminal affairs of the police station after the end of the reconnaissance, the trial of public security cases and ordinary civil economic cases.

The Supervision Department has a great power. It mainly supervises and investigates whether officials at all levels of the government have committed corruption, bribery, dereliction of duty, favoritism, etc., and also supervises the discipline and style of officials at all levels. The Finance Department is responsible for the finance and taxation work of the government, and it has a tax bureau. The Agricultural Administration and Water Resources Department is mainly responsible for the construction and management of agricultural development and water conservancy facilities in the government. The Economic Development Department mainly cooperates with the Administration to formulate policies to promote the development of various industries such as industry, commerce, finance, and entertainment, and is responsible for coming up with plans to ensure the implementation of these policies. Another important task is to attract investment

The Ministry of Culture, Education and Health can promote the accelerated development of Qingyang's economy. The Ministry of Construction is mainly responsible for the construction of infrastructure such as towns, streets, roads, and docks in the entire province. The Ministry of War Readiness is mainly responsible for establishing a reserve force and conducting appropriate training for this force in case of an emergency, this team can quickly enrich the regular force or complete other tasks. The Ministry of Culture, Education and Health is mainly responsible for the cultural, education, and health work of the people in the entire province, mainly for the literacy of the people, the education of minors, and the construction and management of grassroots hospitals." Xiao Tang gave a thorough report to Wufeng in one breath-

"But although these agencies have barely put up the shelves, many agencies are very short of staff and it is quite difficult to operate. Currently, I am responsible for the work of the Administrative Office, the Finance Department, the Culture, Education and Health Department, Moron is responsible for the work of the Interior Department, and Wu Shun is responsible for the work of the Agricultural Administration and Water Resources Department, the Economic Development Department, the Construction Department, and the War Readiness Department. We want to ask Lu Man to be responsible for the work of the War Readiness Department." Xiao Tang then added-

Wufeng was very satisfied after listening to Xiao Tang's report. He only gave them one idea. In just over a month, the three of them were able to form such a complete government agency according to their intentions. Although it was still difficult to operate, it was caused by objective difficulties. It was not unreasonable to blame the three of them. Their abilities were also worthy of praise. "Very good, thank you for your hard work. When you have free time, you will definitely give you a few days off." Ignoring the wry smiles of the three of them, Wufeng said to Liang Chongxin: "Chongxin, let's talk about the establishment of the First Security Division."—

"Okay, let me talk about the formation of the First Guard Division. According to the arrangement of the adults, Mulige and I took the first and third brigades of the former Fourth Regiment as the foundation. Since the veterans of the First and Third brigades were not small in the war, it was difficult to form, but we basically put on the airs. Ordinary soldiers were composed of scattered soldiers from the original Empire's Western Expedition Army and a certain number of new recruits who had just joined the army. However, there were also some officers and veterans from the former Empire's Western Expedition Army who performed well in the war. We also arranged them in the position of intermediate officers.

There is a deputy captain of the First Infantry Division of the Second Imperial Army named Sang Sheng. He is very capable. He was born in a peasant family in Yanyun County, the Empire. He studied in the Imperial Military Academy and had no problem with loyalty. We are going to mention him to the position of the corps captain and ask for approval from the adults. Now there are both ordinary soldiers and grassroots officers and urgently need to be supplemented. Our division is less than 6,000 people, which is only equivalent to a strengthening corps. The combat effectiveness is also uneven, and it is urgently needed to strengthen training." Liang Chongxin's words were brief and clear, and he directly raised the existing problems-

Wufeng nodded. These questions were long before he expected, and it was not surprising. "Wenxiu, let's talk about the Second Division."—

"Okay, our problem is similar to the First Division. The combat effectiveness has decreased, and the officers and soldiers are seriously insufficient. We need to supplement personnel and strengthen training. In addition, Kamapov and I also discovered a talent. This person was originally a captain of the Fourth Light Infantry Division of the Third Imperial Army. He was from Dandong Prefecture, Tiannan County, Imperial China. His family was born in a free-spirited city and had good abilities. Especially he was good at defense and had also trained in the Imperial Military Academy. Kamapov and I were preparing to arrange him as the captain of our First Regiment." Cui Wenxiu was even more concise and to the point-

"Very good. I have understood the problems with your two divisions for a long time, but it is difficult to solve them for the time being. I am afraid that we can only do it slowly. In addition, what you are talking about promoting talents in the Western Expedition Army of the Original Empire is as long as there is no problem with loyalty. I have said that only talent is to promote them. Even if you dare to promote them, Wufeng is still full of confidence. "Next, we will discuss what problems exist in Qingyang Prefecture now, distinguish priorities, and what corresponding measures should be taken. Xiao Tang, let's talk about it first."—

"After statistical analysis by Molun and Su Minshun, there are several major problems in Qingyang Prefecture, and they all need to be solved urgently. The first is the population, that is, labor force. According to our statistics, Qingyang Prefecture has a total of about 140,000 people. Compared with the nearly 700,000 people at its peak, less than one-quarter of the labor force is severely lacking, resulting in no one farming of land, no one working in industrial and commercial workshops, no military force, and the inability to increase social purchasing power. The second is the economic aspect. Now the industry and commerce of Qingyang Prefecture is extremely depressed, and agriculture is even more abandoned and urgently needs revitalization; the third is the financial aspect, the current fiscal aspect is now the financial aspect is now the financial aspect is collected by Qingyang Prefecture.
