Sun Xiangfu's god-like plan made several of Li Shimin's confidants and ministers feel a little bit like they didn't have enough brains, what is the talent of the world? That's it.

In fact, the reason why Sun Xiangfu can think of such a strategy is very simple, because he grew up in the real estate economy and society in later generations, and the government of the era in which he lived only needed to master the land to have endless money, and Sun Xiangfu just learned from it.

In the streets and alleys of Chang'an are discussing Shanyang, Sun Xiangfu is not idle, in Shanyang City, one by one restaurants, inns, shops are opened, so that his capital protection palace yamen is very busy, for this reason, Sun Xiangfu asked Wang Xu to borrow more than 100 scholars who can write and calculate, now, he is the only protector of the Tang Dynasty, according to the grade standards determined by the imperial court, he is now the official position of the third grade, which is only one level lower than his county duke from the second grade, Li Shimin also gave him the direct appointment and dismissal of officials below the seventh grade, and the temporary appointment and dismissal of officials below the fifth grade.

Of course, he was the first to appoint his own people, Guo Po was named the male of Shanyin County by Li Shimin due to his exploits in the Battle of Shuozhou, from the title of Wupin, and the rank of a ranger general, according to his rank, Sun Xiangfu appointed him as the captain of the left guard army of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate.

As for the lieutenant of the right guard, he was a person sent by the imperial court who Sun Xiangfu had some surprises, Ab Situ, who had previously served under Tuli. At this time, he was still following Li Jing's team on the way to Shanyang, Li Shimin used him, taking into account the boundary of the Anbei Protectorate, there are many scattered Turkic tribes, and it is necessary to use him to form a Hu cavalry force, after all, at least for the Han people, it is not innate, and the Tang Dynasty does not have so much time to train cavalry.

In addition to the captains of the left and right guards, Li Shimin knew Sun Xiangfu's weaknesses, and he could play with his brains, but he couldn't command in battle and fight to the death, so he sent him a commander to help him manage the army, this person was Su Dingfang, one of the generals of the expeditionary force who had come to Shuozhou with Li Jing to rescue.

The Zhichong Lieutenant of the Shangdu Protectorate is actually equivalent to the deputy capital protector, and he is the official position of the fourth grade, which is several levels higher than Su Dingfang's original General Mingwei, which is also because Li Jing has a high evaluation of Su Dingfang and vigorously recommends it.

In Li Jing's view, the land under the jurisdiction of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate is destined to be a place of right and wrong that will not be stable, and it is necessary to send a capable general to manage the army in order to maintain it.

After Li Jing returned to Chang'an, Su Dingfang happened to be left by him in Shuozhou to lead the expeditionary force, after the emperor's will arrived, the expansion and training of the Anbei Protectorate and many other things, Sun Xiangfu was directly handed over to Su Dingfang to deal with, Li Shimin gave the establishment of between 25,000 and 40,000 people, which is equivalent to the number of soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty.

However, with the population actually controlled by the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate now, I am afraid that the minimum of two or five thousand people will not be able to recruit, because the total number of registered households is only about 70,000 households, including 20,000 households of Wang Xu's serfs, so he can only take his time in this regard, after all, the place he has to defend now, that is, a few cities, mainly guarding Haoshanyang and Mayi.

In addition, Sun Xiangfu's position as the protector of the capital is also equipped with 500 personal guards, which are also high-grade sergeants, and they are paid by the imperial court, which is regarded as a kind of favor and protection for important foreign ministers, Sun Xiangfu made an investigation in his personal guards, and no one was willing to transfer their identities to the army, they were only willing to be Sun Xiangfu's personal guards, and even retainers.

So, a strange scene appeared, Sun Xiangfu recruited five hundred disabled soldiers of the Shuozhou Unity Battalion as personal guards, and Zhang Ke, the commander of his personal guard army, was unwilling to take office, no way, Zhao Long and Zhao Gang were in Lingnan, Zhao Qiang was also sent over, Zhao Hu was responsible for guarding Happy Village, none of them were around Sun Xiangfu, they could only catch ducks and use him, anyway, Zhang Ke's own work has not changed much, but he has the identity of a seven-rank military attaché, and those soldiers who were disabled in the battle of Shuanghualing and Mayi, At least he is more loyal to Sun Xiangfu, and let him guard his mansion and yamen in Shanyang, Sun Xiangfu can rest assured.

When it comes to protecting Sun Xiangfu's safety, it is still necessary for the professionally trained people of the escort team to be good, or it won't be long before Zhang Ke will select the number of dead people from the family reserve personnel of the escort team to make up for it, after all, Zhao Hu's training in Xingfu Village has not stopped, and many of their relatives and children are also practicing, loyalty and training focus can be guaranteed, professional bodyguards and martial arts are strong, and people who are good at military affairs are two different things. That guy got together and rushed out, which is like this in Luoyang.

"Jun Mai, you are also a town general now, can you not be frizzy all day long, who are you fighting with today?"

Seeing Xi Junmai, who had some color on his face, coming from outside the mansion, Sun Xiangfu said depressedly.

Originally, he was the deputy lieutenant of the Shuozhou Unity Battalion, only from the seventh grade, and now he was directly promoted to the fourth level, and he was awarded the captain of Zhaowu, a thousand cattle and a body, and an officer under the sixth grade, and he led 3,000 soldiers and horses alone, responsible for the garrison of Shanyang City.

Since he knew that his new boss Su Dingfang was a master, Xi Junmai couldn't help but want to challenge, however, his physical condition as a teenager was not as strong as Su Dingfang, who was at his peak, so he was defeated.

You must know that Su Dingfang was born at the grassroots, from a small soldier, and has been promoted to a senior general by accumulating military merits, and he has fought hard battles not a hundred but eighty, and his martial arts are not strong, can he survive?

Yes, Xi Junmai, who was taught to be a man, was very dissatisfied, and in the past few days, he has been looking for someone to hone his martial arts, trying to improve, and then challenging Su Dingfang again, however, today, he was taught to be a man by a fifteen-year-old boy, and now, he began to doubt life a little.

"I Xi Jun bought today to know, there are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the sky!"

"What's wrong with you, such an exclamation is also something that you Xi Junmai can make?"

"That kid named Xue Li is very strong, two or three years younger than me, his strength is actually greater than me, we are equal in fists and feet, but I lost to him in weapons, archery, hey, don't mention it, I guess Wang Xu may not be able to defeat him."

"Who? Xue Li? What about people? "Sun Xiangfu doesn't know much about the history, he still understands the characters that are often broadcast in film and television dramas in later generations, Xue Li, isn't it Xue Rengui, Li Shimin's Ying Mengxianchen! Now, I actually ran into my brother's pocket.

"Chengbei Campus! That kid came to Shanyang to join the army. ”

"Join the army, it's good to join the army! Are you enlisted in the army now? ”

"I have already completed the military registration, General Su originally wanted to give him a position as a cavalry general of 100 people, but he had to go to the Huotou camp, saying that he had a lot of food and could only eat enough in the Huotou camp."

"Poof, it's him, you now, immediately, immediately, find me for him, tell him that the most well-fed place in the world is my Sun Mansion, and in the future, he will be the deputy commander of my personal guards, and tell him that this is the military attache of the seventh grade, and he will have enough food to eat big fish and meat??????

Xi Junmai was almost driven out by Sun Xiangfu, at this moment, he deeply felt that his importance in Sun Xiangfu's mind had been challenged, and the knife swinging style that he hadn't practiced for a long time should be practiced quickly.

If there are talents under his hands, it is easy to do things, especially now that Sun Xiangfu is in the land of the four wars, Jieli is not counted, Hui Hui, Xue Yantuo, Mu Wei, and Yan Ya are all jackals around him, in terms of military strength, he must be strong, the troops are not enough, and he will come together.

In fact, Sun Xiangfu really wanted to see Xue Li in person, but he was so busy now that he even had to use the time he was waiting for.

"Old Don."

"Ah, here it is! Here it is! ”

Sun Xiangfu shouted outside the yafang, Tang Fengyi ran in, since Sun Xiangfu was crowned the protector of Anbei, this guy has become very attentive, because he knows that Sun Xiangfu has the power to appoint officials, so can he get back into office, just between Sun Xiangfu's words, in this era, can be an official, who wants to be a civilian!

"Are the food and grass supplies I asked you to prepare for me ready now?"

Hearing this, Tang Fengyi said with a little twist, "Everything is ready, this should actually be the work of the Governor of the Metropolitan Protector Shi." ”

"Well, has the inn for the imperial history team been arranged?"

Tang Fengyi continued to twist and said, "It's all arranged, this should actually be the work of the governor of the Metropolitan Protector Shi." ”

I really couldn't get used to seeing an old man in his forties behaving in front of him, Sun Xiangfu nodded and said, "Yes, the long history arranged for me by the imperial court will come over in a few days." ”

"You, you, you can't do this! Old man, I ??????." Tang Fengyi was a little surprised, in his opinion, the position of the governor of Anbei Metropolitan Protector Shi was the meat in his bowl.

"The governor of Shangdu Protector Shi is an official of the fifth grade, which is higher than the grade of Guangzhou Changshi at your peak, do you think Your Majesty will give you a person who has committed the crime of rebellion? Obediently be my staff in the house, and with your temperament, letting you be out of office is tantamount to harming you. ”

The long history of the Metropolitan Protectorate has long been selected, and this time it will come with Li Jing, it is Sun Xiangfu's former good friend Changsun Chong, such a big territory, such a big power, all given to Sun Xiangfu, of course, Li Shimin wants to send a person who will never rebel to keep an eye on the point, to avoid Sun Xiangfu making mistakes, and the people of the faction really can't adapt to Sun Xiangfu's whimsical governance concept.

"Hey, isn't the old man just greedy for money, with your net worth today??????"

"Stop, or you come and tell me, how much is my net worth now?"

Tang Fengyi thought for a while and said, "Well, as of yesterday, the data reported by the account office shows that you owe the Qin family 80,000 guan, the Yu family 50,000 guan, the Wei Chi family 30,000 guan, the Cheng family 30,000 guan, the Dugu family 50,000 guan, and the Pei family sent 50,000 guan, it is said that you don't need to pay ??????it back."

"Do you mean that with the huge debt I owe today, I need a corrupt official sludge to help me run my family?"

"Exactly, exactly!" Tang Fengyi finally found the point to realize his value, and nodded happily.

"Fart, the official is honest and honest, the money owed, must be tricked in other ways, pay off the debt, but there is no need to be corrupt, you, now, immediately, immediately, give me a self-operated restaurant, inn, service place, call the supervisors to me, I will have a meeting later."

In this era, if you want to do something quickly, you must double the investment of money and double the use of manpower, just right, he knows that after the bean paste workshop and Wangjianglou in Yangzhou, these families have a lot of surplus money in their hands, so they borrowed from them, and his own share has already been invested in the construction of Shanyang City.
