Two days later, the 50,000 elite cavalry of the 12th Army of the Western Theater of Operations, under the leadership of Sima Chao, all of them were neatly stationed in Chengdu, arriving three days earlier than the required time, which made Yang Er very appreciative of Sima Chao's ability to lead.

In the early days of this day, Sima Chao joined hands with three generals and ten young lieutenant officers to participate. Chai Shao also reported on the main affairs of the past few days. The arrival of the imperial army and Zhang Ruoshui's investigation of the evidence of the crime of the officials in Shuzhong who fornicated with the scholars made everyone who participated in the court discussion today feel at risk and silent. Even if there is a fire burning in the huge copper tripod in the middle of the hall, you can't feel a trace of warmth.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is also the last time for me to organize everyone here today, and in the future, Chai Shao, the assassin of Yizhou, will discuss government affairs with you in his assassination mansion. This Shu Palace's palace was vacant, and it was used as the palace for me to come to Shu to visit you in the future. My younger brother, Yang Xiu, the original king of Shu, has no heirs, so there is no one to inherit the title of King of Shu, and I will not canonize the new King of Shu. In the future, Yizhou will be the capital of a state in the southwest of our Great Sui. The appointment and promotion of all officials must be reported to the imperial court, and they can only be appointed after being approved by me. I hope that all Aiqing will work together to build Yizhou into a real rich country of abundance as soon as possible. How to govern Yizhou, I have already discussed with the history of Chai Thorn, and I will not say much here. It's just that I still have a copy of the accounts and some letters between the Zhuqing here and the four major families in the former Shuzhong~"

Before Yang Er finished speaking, all the officials and martial artists in Shu below were shocked, and they suddenly exploded like a frying pot, and they kept talking.

"Don't panic! Thank you Zhang Sili for her visit and secret investigation in the past few days. However, the four major families in Shuzhong have now reached a compromise with me, and it is no longer a stumbling block for me to implement the new policy, and these things have become dispensable in my opinion. As he spoke, Yang Er walked towards the center of the hall with a stack of brochures in his hand. When he came to the edge of the copper tripod that was burning with raging flames, he raised his hand, and the various books in his hand fell into the flames, and suddenly there was a slight flame.

"Oh~" When His Royal Highness saw it, they all exclaimed, they couldn't believe that the book evidence that was very likely to contain their own crimes was burned by the emperor, what does this mean? The officials couldn't help but look at each other speechlessly.

"I am not to blame for the past, I only hope that Zhongqing will try his best to help Chai Thorn Shi and Zhang Sili do their best for the development of Shuzhong in the future, I don't know if Zhongqing can agree to what I requested?"

"The ministers are willing to do their best for the development of Shuzhong, thank Your Majesty~" The hundred officials in Shuzhong responded in unison. The stone hanging in everyone's hearts finally fell, and it turned out that the emperor had already generously pardoned everyone's previous mistakes.

"Good! The dynasty arrived here early today, and you need to perform your duties when you return home. ”

After the hundred officials shouted long live, this court meeting ended. But there are some things that Yang Er still needs to inquire about privately, so although the hundred officials have retired, Chai Shao, Zhang Ruoshui, Rui Danian and Sima Chao and other generals will follow Yang Er to the apse study to continue to discuss some confidential matters.

"Sichang and Ruoshui, you two are one and one auxiliary to preside over the affairs of Yizhou in the future, and you need to pay attention not to form new interest groups. Three days later, the officials stationed in the 6 departments and 1 department of the imperial court will arrive, and at that time, it is necessary to form a governance team according to the new policy. Most of the officials in the former Shuzhong colluded with the local heroes and used each other only for small favors and small profits, and the local officials used them cautiously in the future. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Now the implementation clause of the new policy has been issued to all counties in Yizhou, requiring all county officials to implement the new policy. However, there was some resistance in various places, and it was somewhat difficult to confiscate the land of the local nobles. ”

"Hmmm! What Si Chang said I had expected for a long time. Therefore, let the 12th Army come here as soon as possible. General Wang Renze~"

"The end will be." Wang Ren was stunned, why didn't he expect to call his name directly?

"General I know that he is well-behaved and witty. I have no other requirements, as long as you find a way to confiscate the land in your hands, but you can't intensify the contradictions between the government and the people, and provoke the people to revolt. Yang Er knew that this Wang Ren didn't have any great ambitions, but this general was rare and tactful and smart.

"Hehe~ What should be the end of the year? If the last general is allowed to lead the troops to fight in front of the two armies, the last general will not be sure of victory, and this will deal with the wealthy families in various places, and the last general has a way, and he has not yet put it in his eyes. As long as General Sima allocates 3,000 elites to the general, the final general will ensure that things are done properly. Wang Ren replied with confidence, as long as it is not to the battlefield of bloodshed and murder, it is just to confiscate the land of the family, it is very easy.

"Good! I asked General Rui to send local officers to accompany you. The confiscation of all the land in the hands of the Yizhou family is your first achievement. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Don't fail in your mission. Wang Ren hugged his fists again.

"Si Chang, the population and ethnic policies discussed with you earlier can be mobilized to send General Sima's army if there is resistance and the use of force is necessary. Remember, both of you, when faced with the national question, try not to move if you can, but when you have to do so, you must resolutely resort to force and not hesitate. It is important to know that long pain is not as good as short pain. I might as well tell you first, some tribes and barbarians in this southern and central barbarian tribe have no reason to talk about, and they must be cut off by the roots. You should understand the truth of killing chickens and monkeys? ”

After Chai Shao and Sima Chao glanced at each other, they stepped forward and arched their hands: "We understand Your Majesty's intentions, if we meet them, we will know what to do." ”

"Come, come and see." As he spoke, Yang Er led everyone to the table and opened a map of Yizhou casually.

"You see, this is the Nanzhong region, thousands of miles south of Chengdu, this large area of land is mostly forested, but it is also a fertile land with abundant products. Most of the people on this land are the barbarian people who have not yet been civilized, and the land is vast and sparsely populated. If our dynasty does not conquer it, it will be very easy for this place to become independent from the central government and become a new country in the future, which will be extremely unfavorable to our dynasty. General Sima and General Rui Lao will attack all the way south in the future and bring this large piece of land under the rule of our Great Sui. On the side of Sichang, the grain laid down every year does not have to be handed over to the state treasury, and can be used to use troops to the south. I don't have high requirements, I want you to wait for 3 years to effectively occupy all the southern parts of Shu under Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han. I wonder if you can do it? Yang Er said to everyone while gesturing on the map.

"Your Majesty, it is not difficult for the last general to lead troops to fight, but every time he fights, my Han officials will go to take over the governance, and some Han people will be moved in to develop and build cities in the barren land. If these can't keep up, it will be like not occupying them, just like the Shu Han Zhuge back then. Sima Chao said.

"Yes! Your Majesty, the lower officials are anxious about the officials sent to Bazhong, Badong and other places these days! I only hope that the imperial court can transfer more officials into Shu. Chai Shao also mentioned the lack of officials.

"Hmmm! I know that, too. Next year, the students who will be admitted to the imperial examination will be sent to Shuzhong and will be sent to various places in Shuzhong as officials. In addition, the selection of some capable officials as officials in the local area should solve the problem of lack of officials. As for the relocation of the people, I will find a way to first exile all the offenders and their families in the state capitals of our dynasty to serve their sentences, so that tens of thousands of people can be moved into the newly occupied land every year. ”

"Your Majesty has a good idea, if you use these exiled sinners to reclaim the land, and at the same time obtain the right to use the newly opened land, and if you marry the local natives, you can let them take root on the spot. Over time, this land will merge into the territory of my Celestial Empire and be inseparable. Zhang Ruoshui added, and everyone nodded in approval after hearing it.

"Good! This matter is not in a hurry, or wait for Sichang to take over the entire Yizhou government affairs first, and then send troops to the camera, just remember that against the southern barbarians, it is necessary to use the strategy of first appeasing and then suppressing, dividing and disintegrating the barbarian tribes, rewarding the obedient people, and cracking down on the Diao people. ”

"Hmmm! Your Majesty, the last general and others are aware. Several generals responded.

A month has passed in a blink of an hour in Chengdu, and in this month, all the officials sent to Yizhou by Pei Shiju and other departments have been sent to the counties and prefectures of Yizhou by Chai Shao's hand, and the whole territory of Yizhou has gradually entered the right track of development.

Whether it was the local families who took the initiative to accept the new system of the imperial court, or the powerful people who were forced to hand over their land due to the military might of the imperial court, they were all unified and resettled by the imperial court. But I have to say that there are still a considerable number of local tyrants who have risen up and gathered troops to rebel. However, these rebellions initiated by landlords in various places were quickly suppressed by the scheming Wang Renze's troops. This Wang Ren was very ruthless in exterminating the landlord rebellion, and often directly killed the rebellious landlords and nobles, leaving no one alive. Although it can deter the local rebellion, it is also too bloody.

Yang Er's approach to Wang Renze has always been to turn a blind eye and ignore it, so that the blood account of slaughtering the nobles of various families is easily counted on Yang Er's head, and there are endless rumors that he is a tyrant.

Yang Er didn't think so. His idea was very simple: to promote the New Deal, it would not be all smooth sailing, and if he was soft-hearted, the New Deal would not be implemented at all. I think that if Qin Shi Huang had not been tyrannical back then, he would not have been able to unify the whole country at all, let alone unify the weights and measures of the book, the same paper, the same track, and the same track that was implemented throughout the country after unification. Which one is not accompanied by bloodshed and violence. Compared to himself, it is not a big deal to just kill some nobles who are against him and are rich and unkind.

On this day, Chengdu ushered in a rare sunny day, and the sun shining on people's bodies made people feel very comfortable. Yang Er and Ma Shumou were basking in the sun on the watery bridge in the backyard.

"Brother, the number of seven or seven of Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, is about to end, so let's find a cemetery to bury it as soon as possible!" Ma Shumou said to Yang Er that time was too slow for him who wanted to reunite with Tang Feiran as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, there are only seven hundred and forty-nine days left in two days, and there is a place in the eastern suburbs, and a cemetery has already been temporarily built, and the thin burial is enough."

"Next, how do you arrange it? I'm tired of staying in this place. ”

"Everything that needs to be done has been done, Chai Shao has completely entered the role of the feudal official, and Yizhou doesn't need me to worry about it now. Stay another week! After putting the fourth brother Yang Xiu into the ground, we will leave Chengdu and return to the capital. There's still a lot of stuff waiting for me to go back and deal with in the capital! I really want to be a common man! ”

"Come on! Brother, I have got so much advanced equipment for your army, why don't you make good use of it to dominate the world and be a common man! You didn't have that life. Uncle Ma said mockingly.

"Yes! Some things must be done in hand, and they must not leave problems for future generations. Alas! Regardless of past or present lives, I am miserable. However, this trip back to the capital will be the beginning of spring next year. ”

"Take Jiangyou, it won't take so long to return to the capital on the line to Guangyuan!" Uncle Ma said puzzledly.

"Who said to go back on the Taurus Shu Road? Climbing the plank road, the legs and stomach turned tendons, and died of pain. This time, we went to Badong County, Baidi City, Chongqing, visited the Three Gorges, went down the river, and returned to the capital from Jingzhou, Hubei. By the way, he inspected the eastern Sichuan region and visited the Liang country. I still have to go and see my own land. ”

"Huh? It's such a big circle! Just by riding in a carriage, aren't you tired? ”

"It is very important to go back to this line, mainly to investigate the passage from Jingzhou to Shu, which will be the main passage in and out of Sichuan in the future, and I plan to build a good road. In the future, don't take any Taurus Road and Rice Cang Road in Sichuan, can those be considered roads? ”

"Alright! Brother, I am working hard with you this time, and it is estimated that after I go back, Li Chun's sailboat at the wharf of Huayin City should be completely renovated. ”

"Yes! If the maneuverability of this sailing ship on the water is good, it will accelerate our unification war against Nanchen. ”

“。。。。。。”

Just as Yang Er, as a new generation of Sui Emperor, was busy calming down various contradictions between the central and local governments in the country and extensively implementing the new policy, a major event occurred inside and outside the Great Sui that attracted the attention of the world.

In China, the first 1500 stone steam engine powered sailing ship was launched at the Guangtong Canal Wharf in Huayin City, and the trial voyage was a great success, and the full sailing speed in the water was like a war horse galloping on land, and it was also extremely fast. At the same time, the Dasui Royal Steam Turbine Factory, which was also established in the Huayin City Military District, also started the horsepower to cast the power turbine steam engines used for sailing ships in batches.

However, the major events that happened abroad appeared in Shanshanguo, which was subordinate to the territory of the Western Turkic State, and suddenly appeared in the place that originally belonged to the ancient Loulan Kingdom, and this person came from an unknown origin, and actually used the sand here to burn exquisite glass, and formed a small-scale glass workshop. This caused quite a stir in the Western Turkic country, and although the output of glass products was small, it had become a heavy weapon for the private exports of the Great Sui, and began to wrap up a large amount of gold and silver in the Great Sui.

If Li Chun and Liu Xuan joined forces to make the ignition turbine, it was still in Yang Er's expectations, but the appearance of glass products made Yang Er stunned and hard to believe.
