To tell the truth, the three counties of Daizhou are also border counties, and they are congenitally deficient, and they are always inferior to the advantages of merging states.

The important thing in Daizhou is military strength, and the reason why the Daizhou army is so elite is that it is directly related to the people's customs and strategic environment in Daizhou.

Both Li Po and Yu Wenxin actually understand this.

On the other hand, military strength comes from abundant military replenishment, and population is the most important foundation.

Again, what Li Po wants is stability and order, in his eyes, this is more important than anything else.

And what Yu Wenxin mentioned is development and prosperity.

Although the focus is different, it does not contradict each other.

It's just the prosperity of Yanmen, in fact, there is only one way to go.

Therefore, Yu Wenxin tentatively mentioned the matter of business.

That's right, this is where Yanmen can compete with Jinyang, and the north-south business must pass through the three counties of Daizhou, and the commercial tax has always been a very important part of the tax of the three counties of Daizhou.

Generally speaking, the three counties of Daizhou, Mayi, and Lou Fu have the advantage of being able to raise cattle, sheep and horses, and Yanmen has a part of agriculture and a part of animal husbandry.

The most important thing is that the business road must pass through Yanmen, and as the governor of the acting state, he has the right to collect a large amount of commercial taxes.

And the trade with the Turks, the huge profits during the period are obvious.

It has been some time since the north-south trade route was cut off, and now is not a good time for trade, which still needs to be seen as the situation changes.

Especially now that there are only two states in hand, even if there is trade, it will not have much effect, and there are too few things that can be traded.

In fact, from the thirteenth year of the Great Cause to the present, Yanmen's top priority is to resettle the immigrants from Youzhou, and everything else is something that will be talked about later.

Yu Wenxin, only slightly mentioned, first laid a foundation, in fact, he felt that Jinyang is going down, Li Po will lead his troops to the south sooner or later, at that time, there is the whole territory of Jindi, it just so happens that Yanmen has also stabilized, everything is ready, and trade is a matter of course.

Almost every aspect of things, when Yu Wenxin was sent away, Li Po shook his head a little dizzy, and sighed hypocritically, a hundred wastes are waiting to be revived.

The only thing that made him a little relieved was that this year's war was completely over.

Tang Jun didn't come to fight Jinyang, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed so comfortably in Yanmen.

The Tang army was stationed in Jiexiu, looking at Jinyang unwillingly, but they didn't attack it regardless of it, and when it snowed heavily, if they came to attack Jinyang, they would be looking for death.

If you want to fight, you have to wait until next spring to bloom.

The Turks in the north don't know what happened, and there is still a princess of Garan in his house.

For the Turks, the only thing to worry about is that it hurts too much this time, and Princess Yicheng did not grab the Khan position, so needless to say, the new Khan King is in office, and there is no better person to stand up than Li Po.

Thinking about it like this, Li Po, who was almost relaxed, finally began to seriously think about the things of the coming year.

The so-called precautionary measures, such as war, cannot wait for the time to come, and then think of countermeasures, and make the most adequate preparations for the worst situation.

Compared with dealing with those messy government affairs, Li Po's philosophy of war is more systematic in comparison.

Thinking of the war, his mind involuntarily became flexible.

Rather than being attacked on the back, it is better to strike first.

After occupying Jinyang, he completely lost the last bit of jealousy towards Li Tang, obviously, if he struck first, he could only be closer to the Tang army.

Thinking of this, he was not so anxious to go to Jinyang, there must be a lot of bad things waiting for him in Jinyang, and he couldn't calm down, so he continued to stay in Yanmen, seriously thinking about the war in the coming year.

And when Wang Qing returned to Yanmen from Lou Fu, the matter of the reward was also placed in front of Li Po.

After half a year of fighting, the meritorious soldiers are waiting for the reward and preparing for a good year.

Li Po has thought about this matter, and he already has some ideas, Li Bi's proposal actually coincides with what he thought, and it is time to establish a military government.

Don't look at the disadvantages of the military government system, but in terms of rewarding meritorious soldiers, there is a very large space, and the accommodation is quite good.

In fact, a better way out is a knighthood, but Li Po doesn't even have the intention of being the emperor now, he always feels that it is not the right time, the weight is too light, and getting a title like a king is tantamount to a crown like a monkey, which seems a little ridiculous.

To a large extent, he came from contempt for those who opposed the king.

What Changle King, Xichu Overlord, Shunfeng King, Mantian King, no matter how you listen to it, it has a joking flavor.

If anyone dared to give him such a title, he would make that person regret giving birth.

Of course, the establishment of a military government is not a one-time thing.

The point that doesn't have to work too hard is that since the era of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty and has continued to this day, the government military system has been extremely perfect, and there is no need to modify it.

In that year, Yuwentai of the Western Wei Dynasty set up eight mansions, and the soldiers of Guanlong Township filled them, laying the foundation of the military gate valve in Guanxi in one fell swoop.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian, Yang Jian went one step further and removed the military power of the Xianbei nobles, restored the Han surname, and incorporated the government soldiers into the civilian register, so that the registered population surged, and by the way, the threat of secession was reduced.

It is also said that at this time, the government military system, which was rooted in the household registration, finally radiated its vigorous vitality, allowing the Great Sui to enter the prosperous season in one fell swoop.

With a large population and strong soldiers, it gradually occupied an advantageous position in the war against the Turks.

This is undoubtedly an institutional victory.

In the reign of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, the government military system deteriorated very quickly, and this was also the collapse of the system, the household registration gradually became chaotic, and under the abuse of people's power, the government soldiers lived a difficult life and fled in all directions.

The consequences are very clear in front of people, and the war caused by the government military system is a little more terrifying than the war at the end of the Han Dynasty, and finally a situation of secession is formed.

This is almost a chronic disease of the government military system, and its root system is the household registration system, which depends to a large extent on the talent of officials and whether they are honest and fair.

Obviously, this will not work in the era of the gate valve, the officials are mostly from the big clans, and the door valve family is closely related, and the strict household registration system is obviously not in line with the interests of the gate valve clans.

Therefore, as long as the monarch is not careful, it will give people an opportunity, let alone an emperor like Yang Guang.

He has spent almost his whole life intriguing with the Gate Valve clan and is committed to eradicating the Gate Valve forces, but in fact, he acts like a stupid and crazy patient.

Since the beginning of the Great Cause, he has been touring around and building a large number of buildings, which has shaken the foundation of the Great Sui, that is, his household registration system.

Once the household registration system tended to be chaotic, the government and military system were also unstable, and the power of the clan did not suffer a heavy blow, but swelled all of a sudden.

But what they never expected was that the outbreak of war in the world would be such a terrifying scene.

Once the government military system collapses, the government soldiers must rise up, but on the contrary, they will teach the gate lord clan a painful lesson.

After so many years, Li Po's understanding of the government military system has been extremely profound.

This is undoubtedly a system of enriching the country and strengthening the army, and at this stage, its good appearance is very suitable for the current situation, and the structure of the integration of military and government, as long as it can be properly controlled, then you don't have to worry about the military strength is not strong enough, and you don't have to worry about the country not being rich enough.

Therefore, although the world has become like this, Li Po still thinks that this government military system is still very good.

Of course, this also stems from his reluctance to bother thinking about other methods, the system, wanting to innovate, well, don't talk about any innovation, some of the systems that people came up with later, Li Po also vaguely remembers some.

But at this time, you have to take it out with the intention of giving it a try, and turn the two states into a trial field, Li Po felt that he was not stupid to that point.

In short, this is not a pioneer, he has only one goal, to make his rule rich and strong, and he does not have so many political ambitions to achieve.

Moreover, once the military government is established, it can also solve his most troublesome reward problem.

The army under his command swelled too fast, there were more than 30,000 cavalry alone, plus the infantry troops stationed everywhere, and the government soldiers who had never been used, if he attacked with all his strength, he could pull out more than 100,000 horses.

This is because he did not recruit a large number of prisoners of war into the army, otherwise the number would have increased by a third.

After several years of fighting in the south and the north, the military exploits of the soldiers have become more and more, and the rewards have been bothering him.

The establishment of a military government can well alleviate this situation, and the promotion of high-ranking generals can be dealt with by the military government, and the expansion of the army also brings room for promotion to meritorious officers and soldiers.

As for whether he is qualified to establish a guard and reward others as a governor of the marching army of Daizhou.

Fuck it, even Li Yuan's lair let him dig it out, what else can't he do?

So, this winter, Li Po built the left and right Wei Mansion in Yanmen, and led it by Wei Chi Gong and Bu Qun, as for other official positions in the Wei Mansion, the most important thing for the Daizhou Army is the meritorious general.

Once the Wei Mansion was established, some vacancies appeared in the army, and others took advantage of the situation to fill them.

As a result, there were finally two figures in the Daizhou Army, not to mention the grade, which is of great significance to the Daizhou Army.

With the left and right guards, there will naturally be other guards in the future.

This is almost a repetition of the founding of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty, but the foundation of the people is already thick, and Li Po is more than one small here.

Many people see this winter as a watershed for the military group in northern Shanxi.

At this point, this border army group that started from the Heng'an Town Army in Yunnei has finally taken a big step, and the military power that is both centralized and somewhat scattered has been completely gathered.

and on behalf of the military brigades of the two states, in addition to Li Po, there is finally another boss, which makes the army more systematic.

As a result, the recruitment, drills, military armor, equipment and other matters scattered in various counties were all owned by the Wei Mansion, and if Li Po wanted to ask about the military again, he didn't need to look for it alone, just ask the Wei Mansion.

The exception is that Li Po set up a military justice department in addition to the left and right Wei Mansions, and separated the military law affairs of the left and right Wei Mansions from them.

Generals and soldiers of the military academy will be handed over to the Military Judge Advocate General for disposal if there is any violation of the law and disorder, and the Military Judge Advocate General Department has the responsibility of supervising the army and supervising the war in wartime.

In fact, what made Li Po busy this winter was the whole army.

In fact, after the establishment of the Weifu, the entire military brigade of the two states was almost divided into three divisions, and the left and right Weifu led the troops, and then there was Li Po's pro-army, headed by Luo Shixin and Xue Wanche.

The other generals, or filled the left and right guards, or on the roster of Li Po's pro-army, and then ordered troops, no longer need to rely on memory, take the three rosters, and directly call the names.

This is indeed a lot of trouble for Li Po, the army is expanding so fast that he can't even remember the names of some people.

Of course, this matter can be regarded as Li Po's own benefit.

After having the left and right Wei Mansion, there are a few more Simas in his mansion, and he really saves a lot of trouble, and he doesn't need to come to his ears to chatter about big and small things.

This is tantamount to a disguised separation of powers, one of the benefits of the government and military system.

Wei Chigong, who was stationed in Fenyang, ran back, and before he could get warm, he also came to Yanmen in the wind and snow.

The number of messengers coming and going in Yanmen has also increased several times.

Everyone is like a fire coal, and they are not afraid of any cold and snow.

In September, Li Po took Li Bi and others to set off south to Jinyang, don't look at the establishment of only two Wei Mansions, this winter may not be completed.

He also needs to go to Jinyang to discuss with Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo.

In fact, Jinyang will be the heart of the two states in the future, and border counties like Yanmen, in a bad word, are not kingly, and the geographical location is really worse according to Jinyang.

At this time, Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo were already waiting a little angry, and Li Po was late.

As soon as Li Po arrived, Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo's hearts immediately stabilized, in fact, not only them, but almost all the people in Jinyang felt this way.

This is the role of the backbone, and the prestige and status that Li Po has established with large and small wars has been most directly proved in the psychology of everyone.

In fact, the situation faced by Jinyang and Yanmen are completely different.

Yanmen can be said to be in ruins, and it already has a foundation, and it just needs to be built well.

And here in Jinyang, it is completely a personnel matter.

Jinyang is a gathering place of the Jindi gate valve clan, where the large and small families are nervous when the city changes the banner of the king.

When Li Po was there, they were all quite quiet.

Li Po led the troops north, the Tang army gathered in Jiexiu, and under the pressure of the soldiers, the garrison of Jinyang was obviously empty, and the people's hearts were not so stable.

Of course, there is nothing surprising that this is characteristic of the new stronghold.

In fact, even if the Tang army comes from all over the country in a fortified city like this, as long as the people in the city are bent on fighting to the death, the Tang army will not want to take advantage.

But again, war is not a game, and many factors affect the direction of war, and people's hearts and minds are undoubtedly one of them.

Otherwise, where else can anyone attack a place like Chang'an and Luoyang?
