537, Feng Wang
Wang Zhaodi, Ruan Qiu, Yang Wu, and the four ghost kings, because they killed the blind paralysis, they were highly praised by the emperor, everyone in the palace regarded them as heroes, especially Wang Zhaodi, the emperor almost rewarded her to the maximum, no matter how big the official position, Wang Zhaodi chose at will, but Wang Zhaodi had no intention of being an official, so the emperor planned to crown her as the king and set aside a piece of land for her, Wang Zhaodi did not refuse this time, she considered, perhaps, she should accept this reward, which can leave the greatest wealth for Yang Changchang!
Although Yang Changjiu is her son, he is a mortal, and he has no chance to inherit the soul of Gu Wu, so after she ascends, Yang Changjiu must stay in this world, and what she can do for him seems to be the only thing that can only leave him the most wealth!
The emperor named her king, and she could be hereditary, which was secretly in line with her wishes, so she accepted it, took everyone with her, took office, and went to her fief to be the king!
The emperor assigned them a large territory, occupying a large area in the northwest of the country, Wang Zhaodi felt that the emperor also had his careful thoughts, that is, nominally to make her the king, in fact, it was to let her help guard the frontier, this territory is long and narrow, and many places are deserts, plus it is a frontier, the war is continuous, so it is not rich, the population is not much, if it is not well governed, I am afraid that it will further deteriorate, when the time comes, even if it is the king here, it will be poor, but not as good as a big family in the capital!
On the first day that Wang Zhaodi arrived here, the emperor ordered the guards here to be transferred to other places, which caught Wang Zhaodi a little off guard.
"General Tian, please dry this glass of wine!" Wang Zhaodi toasted to a general sitting across from her!
The general is over the age of sixties, the appearance is dignified, at first glance is a bright and upright man, he sits in the position, tiger and tiger, he picked up the wine glass, held it with both hands, hugged his fist to Wang Zhaodi, and then raised his head and drank the wine in the cup,
Brother Wang Zhaodi also drank all the wine before continuing to ask, "I have a reluctant request, I don't know if General Tian can agree?"
General Tian said, "King Wu has something to say, just command, as long as it is within the ability of the last general, he must go all out!"
Presumably, King Wu is the title given by the emperor to Wang Zhaodi, praising her for her martial arts and can stabilize the country!
Wang Zhaodi said, "My request is that I want General Tian, can you recommend someone to replace your current position, because after you leave, there must be an army here, and the most important thing to quickly establish an army is to choose a general, so I implore you to recommend me such a person!"
General Tian lowered his head and muttered for a while, and said, "I see that around King Wu, there are masters like clouds, and one of them may be much more powerful than the last general, and the last general will not dare to recommend someone to the king of martial arts!"
Wang Zhaodi smiled and said, "They are indeed very good soldiers, and when they kill the enemy in battle, they naturally use one to reach a hundred, but if you want to build a team, you are afraid that you are not proficient!"
General Tian shook his head and said, "Otherwise, everything in the world is a one-size-fits-all, a jack-of-all-trades, since they can surpass ordinary people in martial arts, then they can also do a good job in other things, King Wu, the point you just made will not be able to agree!"
In Wang Zhaodi's heart, he actually knew that Ruan Qiu, Yang Wu, and the Ghost King, the three of them, any one of them, could also serve as the position of this general, but the three of them were all going to follow her and leave, and they couldn't stay to assist Yang Changjiu, and what she wanted to do now was to find someone for Yang Changjiu who could be relied on, and after she ascended, she took away four ancient martial arts warriors, this person could protect Yang Changjiu for a lifetime!
However, she can't say this idea to anyone, even for this General Tian, she has to keep it a secret, because if she tells him, it will inevitably leak the news, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will be bad for Yang Changjiu!
So Wang Zhaodi gave up the idea of asking General Tian to recommend candidates to her, and after having a meal with General Tian, he let General Tian leave, General Tian acted very quickly, and in less than three days, all the troops were completely evacuated from the border!
As soon as the defenders of the border left, the people of the border immediately panicked, and they all felt that the imperial court had abandoned this place, so a large number of people packed their bags and prepared to flee to other places!
Wang Zhaodi had no choice but to work tirelessly, village by village to appease, she asked Ruan Qiu to make a notice, telling all the villagers that she and the Wuwang Mansion would be responsible for guarding this place in the future, and any enemy who invaded here would be ruthlessly repelled by them, and all the people should just graze and farm with confidence, and there would definitely be no disaster on their heads!
Wang Zhaodi's actions played a certain role, almost half of the residents, all decided to stay, this result, so that the already desolate frontier, even more sparsely populated, Wang Zhaodi sent Yang Wu to survey the terrain, drew a map blueprint!
Judging from the map blueprint, this frontier is mainly composed of three large cities, these three big cities, respectively called Liaozhou, Shazhou and Quanzhou, three cities, into a zigzag, of which the sandbar is the largest, the population is the largest, but the front, Quanzhou is the smallest, but it is the back, the more backward, the farther away from the desert, climate and soil, and the natural environment, much better!
So Wang Zhaodi quickly made a decision, that is, to give up Liaozhou and Shazhou, and let everyone in these two states move to Quanzhou!
Her order was immediately carried out by Yang Wu and Ruan Qiu, and as a result, some of the residents fled, so when it finally stabilized, the residents of Quanzhou, gathered all the residents of the three states, but there were only more than 500 households, and most of these people were old, weak, sick and disabled.
This made her very worried, she wrote a letter to the emperor, asking the emperor to send troops to help guard for a few years, but the emperor refused, the reason was very high-sounding, saying that since she was crowned king, she was the little emperor of this region, and she only needed to pay tribute to the imperial court every year in the future, and she could handle everything else! If the imperial court sent an army up, it would be a rude interference with her, and it would not be good to do so!
When Wang Zhaodi received the emperor's reply, she knew that the emperor would not help her, so she had to think of other ways to prepare to resist the invasion of foreign tribes!
