Li Yuan led his troops into this fortress city of the Hetao Plain, Yanmen County to the north, Longmen County to the west, Wuyuan, Mayi, etc. in the northwest, and bordered the grassland Turks.

Therefore, Jinyang is the largest city in the area of the border pass of the Hetao.

The military quartermaster and population here are more than the ordinary county administration city, with a population of nearly 200,000, and there is a Yang Guang's Jinyang Palace, which contains a lot of famous calligraphy and paintings, pearls and gems, and several large warehouses for hoarding grain.

Li Yuan led the troops to control Jinyang City, because he accompanied the imperial court order, so the county guards and government soldiers here did not have any strange ideas, they all felt that Tang Guogong came, the soldiers were strong, and the nearby thieves and rebels did not dare to attack.

Jinyang ordered Liu Wenjing to set up a banquet for Li Yuan's family to receive the wind and wash the dust, accompanied by Liu Hongji, Pei Lian, Liu Chongli and others, all of whom were people with more status and official positions in Taiyuan County, and they themselves came from the local gate valves, representing the power of the scholars.

"Welcome Tang Guogong to Jinyang, there are many generals, and I will not be afraid of the rebels around me when I wait here."

Li Yuan said calmly: "Don't worry, since I, Li Yuan, have arrived, I will never let those rebellious troops do evil in Taiyuan County, and the cholera side will be on the side." ”

Liu Wenjing said: "At present, the biggest threat to Jinyang is the mountain snitch Zhen Zhai'er, he has recruited homeless people and fallen into the grass. Zhanshan is the king, with a number of 50,000 or 60,000 people, and has conquered several counties. ”

Li Yuan looked confident, reassured people's hearts, and said: "It doesn't matter, we are the regular army of the imperial court, and we have an advantage over those grass thieves and rebellious armies in terms of weapons and equipment, food and grass supplies, the number of war horses, and training, and there are also many generals under our command, who will definitely be able to suppress Zhen Zhai'er." ”

Pei Lin said: "There are some gate valves in Taiyuan County, the Hedong Shi clan, and there are many talents, which can be mobilized and used by Tang Guogong." ”

When Li Yuan heard this, he smiled slightly and said: "For the Hedong scholars, I have always admired them, Hedong Pei, Liu, and Xue started from the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi Dynasty, the Western Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the Great Sui Dynasty have been unfading for two hundred years. ”

"This matter, I will leave it to me to do, with the background of the Li family and the prestige of Tang Guogong, it will definitely attract many scholars and heroes to serve." Liu Chongli said with a smile on the side, he is a member of the Liu clan in Hedong.

This banquet was very pleasant, Li Yuan just arrived here, and quickly gained a firm foothold, and won the support of the Jinyang clan and the people.

In less than ten days, after hearing the news of Li Yuan's entrenchment in Jinyang, many people who had been suppressed and belittled by Li Valve left Daxing City one after another and rushed there to be eager to be sheltered and reused.

Li Shentong, Li Xiaoji, Li Xiaogong, Li Daoxuan and others, plus other disciples of the gate valve, organized dozens of people to defect, so that Li Yuan gathered a lot of talents, and his strength was growing rapidly.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Mai Mengcai, and He Ruohuaikuo came to the southwest of Zhuo County, leaving some people to simply besiege the city with stones and wooden fences, and build temporary residences to settle the displaced people.

The rest of the manpower entered Shanggu County, launched propaganda, and won over the poor people in those villages, many old and weak women and children, as well as disabled men, some of whom did not have much food in stock, and could not continue, and heard that a new county was established in Zhuo County, which could accept refugees to be resettled in the past, distribute food for free, and quickly agreed to relocate, as long as they did not starve to death.

In the icy and snowy land, the villages in the border areas of Shanggu County and Zhuo County were the first to migrate, enter Zhuo County, and live in the Xinwei city.

As a result, the number of refugees increased from a few thousand to more than 10,000, and as people were constantly sent to various counties, villages and towns to publicize and encourage refugees to take refuge in Zhuo County.

In the later period, the eldest grandson Wuji handed over the work of searching for refugees to some subordinates, and he comforted the people in his newly built relief area, patiently explaining the policies of Zhuo County.

In the past few years, the court has no prestige and cohesion, but Luo Cheng's prestige is there, he himself has not done anything bad, nor has he played power in the court, and his reputation among the people is still very good, whether it is a scholar or a poor person, he is regarded as a young hero.

"It's still the major general who cares about the people!"

"Yes, if you can serve the people in the area under the jurisdiction of the major general, you definitely don't have to worry about being starved to death."

"Now Young Marshal Luo is not as simple as a general or a marquis, he is already a prince of the country and a concubine of the court, and he still thinks of us poor people like this, what a bodhisattva!"

The people are all blindly obedient, and they follow the crowd, and they are soon infected, verbally praising and praising Luo Cheng's goodness.

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji stood in front of the refugees, watching them wear lint clothes, embarrassed, after drinking hot porridge, the feeling of satisfaction, but the heart was pinched, how simple the poor peasants are, in the turbulent times, they can eat and starve without dying, and there is no war, which has made them happy and content.

The aristocratic arrogance on the eldest grandson Wuji's body, in this scene, is gradually weakening, and he seems to have experienced the difficulties and sufferings of the people, so that his heart has become broad-minded and can hold more things.

This kind of situation has also appeared in new counties such as Gao Biaoren and Du Ruhui, who are busy appeasing refugees and registering household registration, even if these people in distress are fed and clothed, they still need Dr. Langzhong to see a doctor, the yamen to try cases, and maintain public order.

As soon as there are more people and a county town is formed, it needs corresponding supporting measures, so that after these people are fed, how to pass the time, not violate crimes, and make it a real social organization to operate, requires more materials and energy investment.

After this tempering, these young scholars have all got a good opportunity to hammer and train, and their arrogance has also been reduced, and they have a certain feeling about the life and death of the people, which is one of the purposes for Luo Zhaoyun to arrange them to come here, and it has already achieved initial results.
