Chapter 1380: Self-proclaimed Taishou

Li Shimin smiled and looked at the people in the hall.

"Brother Zhang, you are familiar with the Lion City, and you were the head of the archery of the Linyi Forbidden Army. I think, why don't you ask Brother Zhang to temporarily serve as the city lord of Lion City? ”

Zhang Peng was unexpected.

In terms of strength, now there are three people in the city, and the strongest is of course Li Shimin. He entered the city yesterday with hundreds of ships and more than 2,000 pirates.

Although Zhang Peng and a group of brothers have attracted a lot of relatives and friends of their subordinates, they are only a few hundred people, even if the forbidden army in the city finally surrendered yesterday, Zhang Peng still can't surpass Li Shimin. What's more, Li Shimin is not only the leader of the pirates, he is also the Cheng of Nantang County, Sunset Country, and the righteous son of Luo Yi, the king of Sunset, and his Sunset Pirates are still under the name of the South China Sea Fleet.

"Li Xiancheng must not make fun of my Lao Zhang, how can I dare to take on this big responsibility. To capture the Lion City, the plan is Li Xiancheng's contribution, and the main force to defeat the Lion City is also Li Xiancheng, I don't dare to take credit, this city lord's position, of course, has to be done by Li Xiancheng. ”

In this full hall, the one who really has an official body is indeed Li Shimin alone.

Other people also said that Li Shimin should be the lord of the city.

Li Shimin pretended to push a few times, and then accepted the nomination and took over the position of temporary city lord.

"Okay, then I will temporarily take the position of this city lord, and I will immediately send someone to report to the South China Sea Fleet, and ask someone to be in charge there."

Everyone laughed.

"Please also ask the city lord to call the shots!"

Li Shimin is waiting for this, the name is not right, he won the Lion City, the three forces in the city, he must first have a recognized identity that is justified and obedient, so that he can command everyone.

After Li Shimin became the temporary city lord, the first thing he did was to reward his meritorious deeds.

"Everyone worked hard last night!"

Last night's battle ended quickly, and there was no chaos in the city, and it was well controlled, and the palace and treasury were all controlled and blocked as soon as possible.

Now Li Shimin has in front of him the household registration and population register in the Lion City, the treasury money and grain account book, and so on.

This does not include the gold jewels of the court, the property of the nobles and officials of the forest in the city, etc.

For those who participated in the battle last night, whether it was the pirates brought by Li Shimin, the merchant gangs in the city, or the rebel forbidden army, each person was rewarded with ten yuan first.

Of course, the main use of gold and silver in the country of Linyi is the main thing, so this ten guan reward naturally refers to the gold and silver worth the equivalent of ten guan Great Qin Kaiyuan Tongbao.

First gold and silver were rewarded, then wine and flesh were rewarded.

For last night's good performance, there is another big reward.

and if there is death or disability, there is also a generous reward for each of them.

There must be rewards and punishments, of course.

Li Shimin pointed out that during the siege of the city last night, some people took advantage of the chaos to kill people and commit adultery, and secretly hid treasures. Li Shimin's personal soldiers caught more than a dozen of them while patrolling, and Li Shimin ordered that all of them be publicly beheaded as a punishment.

Even if they killed their own people, the rest of the people in the hall really had a lot less smiles on their faces.

"You can't do it without discipline, now that the Lion City is ours, we must be disciplined."

Everyone nodded their heads.

There was a brief silence in the temple.

Everyone wants to know what Li Shimin's next arrangements will be.

"The occupants in the Lion City, the royal family, the aristocratic officials, the big families, the rich merchants, the soldiers, all arrest and confiscate, and the three clans must be traced. These people are hidden dangers and must be completely eliminated. ”

Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.

This is the unanimous idea of everyone at the moment, after all, this place is still more than a thousand miles away from the territory of the Central Plains, and there are enemies all around, so they must be cautious.

The most powerful to oppose them are the original interest groups.

The upper echelons of the occupants must be cleansed.

It is not realistic to wipe out the entire city of occupants, so the upper floors can only be eliminated first.

These people are the most likely to rebel and have the strength to resist.

Of course, if someone is more active and willing to surrender and surrender, it is also appropriate to absorb and leave part of the work.

After Li Shimin proposed to eliminate the upper and middle ranks of the occupants in the city, he began to make personnel appointments instead.

He integrated the three forces in the city and organized them into a box of 4,000 men and horses, organized into two regiments and eight battalions. Li Shimin appointed himself as the envoy of the soldiers and horses, and then let Zhang Peng serve as the deputy envoy of the soldiers and horses, and the commanders of the two regiments below were all his people, and the commanders of the eight battalions were also six of his people.

Zhang Peng's men had two battalions.

As for the merchants, some of the young men were selected from among them to be sent to the camps.

The two regiments and eight battalions also had their own defense and guard tasks.

Li Shimin finally proposed to play the banner of Linyi County of Daqin, so in the end, Li Shimin was elected by everyone and temporarily appointed as the Taishou of Linyi.

Li Shimin took over after a few resignations, and then appointed Zhang Peng as the county lieutenant of Linyi County, Cui Liulang of the Central Plains Chamber of Commerce as the county leader, and another president of the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce as the chief secretary.

Six Cao joined the army, etc., and each also had his own appointment.

For a while, it seemed to look the same.

"For the purging of the upper and middle levels of the occupants, they must act in accordance with the rules, clean up street by street, search and arrest people, and confiscate property, but they must not commit adultery and kill, set fires, or hide privately, and all the money they have obtained shall be returned to the public and put into the treasury."

"For Hu businessmen, no harassment."

"From this moment on, the Lion City will be the county of my Great Qin Linyi, and the Great Qin Law and Order System will be implemented immediately."

"All confiscated money and utensils shall be registered and put into the public store."

"All merchants will also pay taxes according to the Daqin Tax Law from now on."

End of meeting.

A group of pirate leaders surrounded Li Shimin.

"Are we really going to stay here? What if the Linyi people call back? ”

"What about the gold, do you have to hand it over to the court?"

"I think we'll melt the gold, and then we'll split it and go home."

"Yes, the gold."

Li Shimin sat there and watched a group of his subordinates arguing there.

just responded coldly, "Divide the gold, go home?" And then what? ”

Someone said, "If you have money, you're afraid that you won't have anywhere to spend it?" Buy land and build a house, marry a wife, take a concubine, buy a maidservant, and buy some cattle and horses. ”

"It's just, I don't know how happy I am."

Li Shimin said coldly, "I'm afraid that you have a life to take a lifeless flower, have you thought about how much gold this is?" The gold medal statue alone is worth more than 10 million yuan, and this is not counting the property in the treasury of the whole city. Just sell tens of thousands of people in this city into slavery, and they will be sold for millions. ”

"Each of you will share tens of thousands of dollars to go back to your hometown? Hehe. ”

A group of pirate leaders also have a headache when they think about it.

There is indeed too much money, and it is hot.

But you say that you don't want to be reconciled.

What are you doing as pirates and working so hard for?

"If you believe me, listen to me, the money will not be lost to you, you have been with me for a long time, each of you has to give you one or two thousand, as for the brothers below, each of them will always give them one or two hundred. As for saying more, I dare to give it, and you may not dare to take it. Besides, now is actually an opportunity, if it works well, you can all directly wash your hands in the future. ”

"What's so good about being a pirate? If you can wash your name, or even get an official rank or military status, isn't it worth it? ”

Great Qin's officials are valuable, and Great Qin's military status is also valuable.

A group of pirates are a little tempted.

"Okay, don't be too greedy, I'll go back and reward each of you with ten people-occupying girls, and the brothers below, each of you will also reward one or two, and everyone will be content now." Li Shimin said.

Although Li Shimin did not dare to establish himself as the king, he was not willing to leave with the gold like this, and stayed, with so many people, it was strength, and he would have a chance to become powerful.
