Liangzhou.

At this time, Xiao Yuan had already returned here.

According to reports from all sides, due to the transfer of 100,000 Qin troops and the military pressure of Xuanguo, the Chu general Hanzhou began to be forced to evacuate.

On the Ningyang side, the Wu army could not attack for a long time, and the destruction of the Liang Kingdom had become a fact, and the king of Wu had no choice but to order the troops to be withdrawn.

This chaotic battle, after the Liang capital was broken, seemed to have calmed down temporarily.

Xiao Yuan can also deal with the matter of the cool land with peace of mind.

Now that the war has just passed, it is not over if Liangdu is over, there are still many situations that need to be cleaned up.

Just like after Liangdu, including Jialing, there are still two or three counties that have not been recovered.

However, for the matter of Jialing, after thinking about it, Xiao Yuan decided to salute first and then soldier, if he can recover the three counties without blood, of course, it is the best.

His royal decree has almost been transmitted to the three county guards, the content is very simple, and there are not too many threatening words, only let the three county guards worship in the cold.

When they came, they expressed their willingness to submit, and if they didn't come, there would be nothing to say, Xiao Yuan would point out a general and order him to lead the army to fight.

Right now, in the study, Xiao Yuan is reading the scroll sent by Shangguan Wenruo, he read it very seriously, not a word, after reading it, he also shook his head slightly:

"These officials in the cool land are mostly lazy in political affairs, and in the areas of Youzhou and Yanzhou, many counties and townships, due to the war, official positions are vacant, and the political system is paralyzed, resulting in many displaced people gathering bandits and occupying mountains and robbing roads."

"A place, can not do without the government, immediately pass the letter to the royal court, let the officials send officials to Liangdi to take up their posts, especially the position of county commander, it is particularly important, whether Liangdi can be properly governed, and the fastest and most stable state to implement Qin governance, and these parents and officials are inseparable."

"The files of these county decrees, this king must look at them one by one."

"At the same time, the disbanded troops of the Liang Army, including the elite soldiers, will be recruited as local officers and soldiers to set up the Wuwei Mansion, and as for the governors of each province, some of them will be transferred from the generals of various departments of our army to improve the problem of public order as soon as possible, and within three months, the bandits in Liangdi will be quelled."

Most of these Liang soldiers have already been dismissed and returned to their hometowns, and if they can be recruited as officers and soldiers locally, take the country's money, and maintain local law and order, they will be iron rice bowls, and it is conceivable how they are unwilling.

Xiao Yuan said a lot, every time he said something, Shangguan Wenruo nodded hurriedly, wrote them down one by one, and when he finished speaking, the latter was also slightly worried: "The king, there are many things, and the king has to look at the county order files one by one, I'm afraid it's too tiring." ”

"It doesn't matter." Xiao Yuan waved his hand, his parents are very important, and it is not difficult to see that Xiao Yuan attaches great importance to Liangdi, not to mention the county guard, he must make the decision himself.

After a pause, he added: "The miscellaneous taxes on the cool land need to be reduced or exempted to reduce the burden on the peasants, and their laws are too lenient, and the laws must be strict, and the foundation of the country will be shaken. ”

"What the king said is very true." Shangguan Wenruo agreed.

After saying this, Xiao Yuan sorted out the bamboo slips, looked at him again and said, "Do you think that the three county guards will return to the capital?" ”

"They'll definitely come back." Shangguan Wenruo said directly.

"Oh?" Xiao Yuan smiled, but he didn't expect him to be so sure.

As a result, this matter was really said by him, and a few days later, the three county guards returned to Liangdu.

Now there is no armed force in Liangdi, if you really want to say that there are, there are only a few thousand forbidden troops who fled to Jialing, but can these withstand the army of Qin?

The three of them have been officials for many years, and they are not fools, and when they received a letter from King Qin at this time, they naturally discussed it seriously with their henchmen.

is back, at most the official position is not guaranteed, and his life should be worry-free.

If you don't come back, you will immediately attract the Qin army, and you will die without a place to bury.

The three of them were wearing the official uniforms of Liangguo County, and they were all about forty or fifty years old, and when they entered the Liangwang Palace and were led outside the study, Xu Hu also said coldly in front of the palace gate: "Untie the sword." ”

At that time, the dignitaries and nobles all loved swords to symbolize their status, and when they heard this, the three of them did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly responded, untied the swords at their waists, and handed them over to the guards for safekeeping.

After doing this, Xu Hu also stretched out his hand sideways: "Three adults, please." ”

"Ah, there's General Law."

The Jialing County Guard spoke, and then glanced at the other two.

If you don't come, it's a death, and if you come, you don't know what will happen, the three of them are inevitably apprehensive in their hearts, but there is no way, they can only force their anxiety and step in.

In the study, Xiao Yuan was still looking at the bamboo slips, dealing with miscellaneous things.

After the three of them came in, they first straightened their official uniforms, and then knelt on the ground in unison, and said in unison:

"See His Royal Highness King Qin—"

Xiao Yuan put down the bamboo slip, looked up at the three of them, and smiled gently: "The three adults are exempt from courtesy, get up and speak." ”

"Your Highness Xie—" The three of them spoke in unison again, and they all stood up at the same time.

But then, Xiao Yuan was silent, just staring at them.

The three of them stood below, all with their heads slightly bowed, their bodies slightly bowed, and their hearts went up and down.

Xiao Yuan, the king of Qin, is a tyrant in the world.

He is a hard-fought country, the power of the king, and there is no need to deliberately decorate it.

Under the king's gaze, the three of them couldn't help but slide their Adam's apple, and swallowed hard, not knowing what would happen next.

It wasn't until a long time later that the Jialing County Guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and was the first to stand up, bend over, and said respectfully:

"Your Highness Mingjian, now Jialing has belonged to Qin, and there can be no more armed forces, therefore, I have the courage to disband the former forbidden army without authorization, and there is a county guard seal here, please check it."

As he spoke, he hurriedly raised his hands and presented the official seal to Xiao Yuan.

He was very smart, knew the current situation, bowed slightly, put the official seal on the table, and returned to his original position, standing aside with his head down.

"Master Zhang has a heart." Xiao Yuan finally spoke.

Seeing this, the other two hurriedly followed suit and presented their county guard official seals one after another.

Seeing all his statements, Xiao Yuan also nodded, and said: "The three adults are willing to sincerely assist, this king is very happy, this official seal, there is no need to hand it over, and I hope that after returning to the jurisdiction, I can think about the local people's livelihood, govern the place well, contribute to the community, and benefit the local people." ”

The past political achievements of these three people, Xiao Yuan has consulted, and they are not bad.

And now, they are also needed for the proper management of the cool land.

When the three of them heard this, they were obviously a little stunned, and then, they were overjoyed!

I thought that it would be good to be alive when I came back this time, but I never thought that I could keep my official position.

Now King Qin's words are undoubtedly grateful to them!

After reacting, the three of them immediately knelt on the ground, and this time, they were all excited:

"Xie Wang Longen—"
