Chapter 599: The Governor of the Prefecture
The battle at Yanmen Pass fell into a protracted war, Tuoba Li was not willing to return empty-handed in this southern invasion, he stayed in the Yin Pavilion, sent troops to harass the Yanmen area from time to time, and prepared for the follow-up attack.
Cao Liang naturally did not dare to take it lightly, in addition to doing a good job in the defense of Yanmen Pass, Cao Liang also sent troops to strengthen the defense of the Great Wall, as much as possible to keep the Xianbei people out of the fortress, not to let them enter the interior, and to merge the state.
After quelling the Xiongnu rebellion, Cao Liang originally thought that he could take it easy, and he also had time to deal with the government affairs of the state.
But now the Xianbei people are not dead, although the war in Yanmen Pass maintains a low intensity, but there is no sign of stopping, Cao Liang can't get out in northern Jin, so he naturally doesn't care about the government affairs of the state.
I don't know if the court knows that Cao Liang lacks skills, or because Cao Liang has made outstanding contributions to pacifying the Xiongnu, in autumn and August, an edict from the imperial court was transmitted to Yanmen, and Cao Liang was promoted to the governor of the state and the military, and he still served as the general of Pingbei, but the position of protecting the Xiongnu Zhonglang General was revoked and he was reappointed as the general of Poxianbei Zhonglang.
The change of these two positions is not surprising, after all, the Huns have been destroyed, and it is meaningless to retain the official position of protecting the Huns.
However, what is curious is that these two positions are aimed at the Hu people, one is to protect, and the other is broken, obviously in the eyes of the imperial court, the Xiongnu and Xianbei are different.
The Xiongnu are attached to the Hu people, and their area of activity is within the territory of Wei, before their rebellion, they were under the management and jurisdiction of the Wei court, so they will have the title of protecting the Xiongnu Zhonglang, which represents the protection and management.
The Xianbei people belonged to the Hu tribe who had not been annexed, and the area in which they operated was also outside the territory of the Wei State, so the official positions established for the Xianbei people were not worthy of protection and were called broken.
The Hun Zhonglang will basically be held by the history of the state thorn, and there has been no vacancy, and the Xianbei Zhonglang will be the first place in the Wei State, and only Tian Yan in the Eastern Han Dynasty has served in history, and it is not often placed.
The imperial court re-established this post, obviously also noticed the threat of the Xianbei people, and promoted Cao Liang to the governor of the state and the general of the Xianbei Zhonglang, so he deliberately came to target the Xianbei people.
However, the governor is a real feudal official, and his position is above the history of the assassin, after Cao Liang was promoted to the governor of the state, the imperial court naturally had to appoint a new governor of the state, but as for the candidate, Cao Shuang also specially sent someone to Yanmen to ask for Cao Liang's advice.
Governors are generally not often placed, only in areas where border and military operations are more frequent, governors will be established, such as Yongliang governors, Jingzhou governors, Yangzhou governors, etc., the governor's position is focused on the military, and he is also in charge of government affairs, so Cao Shuang took into account the cooperation between the new Bingzhou Assassin and Cao Liang, and deliberately asked Cao Liang to choose a suitable candidate by himself.
Cao Shuang's list of candidates for Cao Liang included the guerrilla general Chen Tai, the Qingzhou protector Hu Fen and An Feng Taishou Wang Ji.
Chen Tai and Hu Fenke are representatives of the wealthy family, Chen Tai is the son of Chen Qun, Hu Fen is the son of Hu Zun, these two people have a close relationship with the Sima family, Cao Liang of course can not choose, An Feng Taishou Wang Ji is a good candidate, a few years ago in the battle of Huainan, he and Cao Liang shared hardships, and also worshiped Cao Liang, the friendship is not ordinary, if he is the history of the state assassin, it can indeed solve Cao Liang's worries.
So Cao Liang chose Wang Ji without hesitation.
At this time, Wang Ji has been transferred from Huainan to Luoyang, because he has performed well in Anfeng in recent years, this time he was transferred back to Luoyang, and his promotion was a sure thing, but the specific position has not been clearly arranged.
After Cao Liang was promoted to the governor of Bingzhou, the history of the state assassin was vacant, because the Xiongnu rebellion had been quelled, and the history of the state assassin had also become a hot position, and there were as many as seven or eight officials who intended to serve alone, including the popular candidates Chen Tai and Hu Fen.
Especially the guerrilla general Chen Tai, when Cao Liang was the general of Pingbei, there were manpower in the court to support Chen Tai to take Tian Yu's class, but Cao Shuang later chose Cao Liang, and Chen Tai did not succeed.
This time, Chen Tai got the support of Sima Yi and some old ministers in the court, and the voice was relatively high, which made Cao Shuang hesitate, and finally he kicked the ball to Cao Liang and let Cao Liang choose his crotch.
In the end, Cao Liang chose Wang Ji, and Cao Shuang agreed, Wang Ji successfully counterattacked and became the assassin of Bingzhou.
This made Wang Ji very excited, it seems that the brother he worshipped at the beginning still didn't forget him, this time Wang Ji came to Luoyang, and he didn't expect to be able to hold such an important position as the history of the state assassin, after all, in terms of family conditions, he and Chen Tai Hu Fen are different, if there is no Cao Dian's name, it is impossible to be his turn.
After getting the appointment of the imperial court, Wang Ji immediately set off for Bingzhou, and after arriving in Jinyang, he simply settled down, and then immediately went to Yanmen, but met Cao Liang.
Wang Ji's Bingzhou Assassin History and the predecessor Assassin Cao Liang and the previous Assassin Tian Yu are different, Cao Liang led the Pingbei General, Tian Yu led the Zhenwei General, both of them are fake festivals, and they both serve as the Hun Zhonglang General, so they serve as the leader of the Assassin History, and Wang Ji does not have the rank of leading general, naturally it is the history of the Bicycle Assassin, in terms of rank, although the history of the Bicycle Assassin and the history of the Assassin of the leading soldiers are both the history of the Assassin, but they are the official positions of the lower grade.
And the governor of Bingzhou is the top boss in the history of Bingzhou assassination, and Wang Ji must deliberately rush to Yanmen to meet Cao Liang with affection and reason.
Of course, from the perspective of personal relationship, Wang Ji couldn't wait to see Cao Liang, when Huainan said goodbye, it had been more than three years since now, and he missed it very much.
Compared with the prosperity of Jinyang, the northern part of Jin is almost inhabited, because the war in the area of Yanmen Pass is in full swing, so most of the people in the north of Jin moved to the area of Jinzhong, even if they don't want to leave their hometown, they are also placed in the nearby Jiuyuan, Dingxiang, Yuanping These cities, in order to better deal with the Xianbei people who came to attack, Cao Liang asked the northern Jin Dynasty to implement the strong wall and clear the wilderness, and there is no scattered valley in the wild, even if the Xianbei people invade the northern Jin area, it will be difficult to continue because of the lack of grain and grass.
The desolation of northern Jin left a deep impression on Wang Ji, and when he left Jiuyuan, Yanghu stationed in Jiuyuan also specially sent a cavalry team to escort Wang Ji, after all, the closer to Yanmen, the more vulnerable it was to the Xianbei people.
But fortunately, Wang Ji was finally safe and sound on this road, and entered Yanmen Pass without danger. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "The Last Three Kingdoms 2: Xingwei Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
