In the government affairs hall of Qilin Town, just as Sima Yu, Guo Yuan, Xiang Lang and others were busy dealing with government affairs, a system prompt sounded in their minds.

At this time, two days have passed since Sima Yu subdued the Yu family's army, and since Sima Yu has been away for more than 10 days this time, the affairs of the entire territory Guoyuan also need to be explained to Sima Yu, and some tricky things also need to be decided by Sima Yu.

With the addition of the Yu family's army, Qilin Town suddenly added nearly 20,000 people, and at the same time, it also got an elite division that had been in battle for a long time.

After Sima Yu appointed Yu Dayou as the captain of the water division, Yu Dayou quickly entered his role, and after some investigation, he finally chose to build a water village on the shore a few miles west of Qilin Town, where there was a vast natural port.

In order to cooperate with Yu Dayou to the greatest extent to establish a water division, Sima Yu and Guoyuan and others simply established an affiliated village next to the water village and named it Yujia Village.

The more than 10,000 people and craftsmen who came with Yu Dayou were distributed there and transported enough food and supplies.

In Sima Yu's positioning, this village will be the shipyard of Qilin Town in the future, specializing in building warships for Qilin Town.

Just when Sima Yu sent people to build the Shuishi camp and Yujia Village, Ah Liansang, who had been ordered to return to the Aoshan tribe before, had also completely subdued the entire Aoshan tribe out of the mountain, and returned to Qilin Town yesterday.

Sima Yu then ordered Guoyuan to place the more than 50,000 Aoshan tribesmen who went out of the mountain this time, together with the more than 11,000 Aoshan tribe warriors captured in the battle of Xiangjiazhen, to the planned Baiyi Village, which is very close to Yongxing Village and Qilin Town, which is easy to manage, and it is also convenient for the tribesmen of the Aoshan tribe to go to various places to work.

After all, in addition to the 5,000 guard battalions recruited by Sima Yu, the entire Aoshan tribe still has a population of nearly 70,000, of which more than 30,000 are young and strong, so it is natural that so much labor must be effectively used.

With the addition of the Aoshan tribe and the subsequent refugees who came to take refuge, Sima Yu's sphere of influence already has a population of more than 300,000, and Qilin Town alone has a population of 200,000.

Presumably, the clansmen of the Aoshan tribe had all been arranged, and when he heard the prompt sound of Qilin Town being upgraded to Qilin City, Sima Yu couldn't help but think in his heart.

The standard for upgrading a third-level town to a city is to reach a population of 200,000, and other indicators such as economy and construction have already been met.

However, what made Sima Yu feel a little puzzled was that after Qilin Town was upgraded to a city this time, it did not rain white light from the sky to transform the government affairs center as usual, and there was not even the slightest change in the entire Qilin Town.

It wasn't until Sima Yu looked through the city chronicles that recorded the history of the development of Qilin City that he finally understood.

After Qilin Town is upgraded to a city, it means that all the villages and towns under the command of Sima Yu in the future, including Qilin City, have been out of the control of this world system, and in the future, the construction of all villages and towns within Sima Yu's sphere of influence will depend on their own decisions and plans.

At the same time, with the upgrading of Qilin Town to Qilin City, the territory owned by Sima Yu was classified as Qilin County, and the county governed Qilin City, and Sima Yu was also canonized as a baron of Qilin County by the system, becoming a veritable prince.

Although it is only the lowest level of knighthood, it also has the qualifications to open a house.

This is different from the official positions that Sima Yu himself canonized in the past, and the official positions appointed by Sima Yu in the future will be recognized by the world in the dark, increasing their prestige among the people and helping to control the place.

In ancient times, everything was orthodox and justified.

After having the right to open the government and build teeth, Sima Yu immediately reappointed the existing subordinates, adjusted the appointment of some people, and rewarded everyone to improve morale and unite people.

And with the spread of Sima Yu's reputation of chasing talents for thousands of miles and entering the camp alone, in the past few days, there have been people who have begun to take the initiative to come to the recruitment hall to ask for entry, among which Sima Yu is most overjoyed is Gu Changfeng, Huang Jingtian, Long Wei, and Long Meng.

For the talents who came to the recruitment hall to seek office, Sima Yu was not appointed without screening, the civil officials were uniformly examined by Xiang Lang, and the military attachés were uniformly examined by Wang Yanzhang, a famous general of the Later Liang Dynasty, and the best ones were selected, and official positions and tasks were arranged according to their respective characteristics and abilities.

Yesterday, when Wang Yanzhang excitedly introduced Gu Changfeng, Huang Jingtian and other four people to Sima Yu, Sima Yu was immediately suppressed.

Because Wang Yanzhang told him that Gu Changfeng, Huang Jingtian, Long Wei, and Long Meng could fight with him for hundreds of rounds, they were tiger generals in the later stage of refining gods, especially Gu Changfeng and Huang Jingtian, who had faintly entered the pinnacle, which was rare in the world.

Sima Yu was naturally very excited when he heard this, and shouted again and again that he was very lucky.

However, while being happy, Sima Yu also had some doubts in his heart, all because Gu Changfeng, Huang Jingtian, Long Wei, and Long Meng were not named in history, and their talents were buried like this.

In fact, in the 5,000-year history of China, there are more than four buried talents, and there is no place for fierce generals like them to be born in a peaceful and prosperous era.

In view of the past ability and previous professional experience of the four people, Sima Yu directly appointed Huang Jingtian, who was good at battle formation, as the captain of the guard battalion to replace Ah Huilan, and the three brothers Long Wei, Long Meng, Xiang Chong, Xiang Chong, and Xiang Tiao were transferred to the Guards Battalion Military Sima, each commanding 1,000 soldiers and horses.

With Ah Huilan's ability to be more suitable for a charging general, rather than as the commander of an army, Sima Yu's appointment of him as the captain of the Guards Battalion was only an expedient measure, because he was from the southern barbarians and helped stabilize the soldiers of the Guards Battalion.

Gu Changfeng was appointed as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, in charge of the affairs of the Jinyi Guard, and was directly under the command of Sima Yu.

The Jinyi Guard of Qilin City is different from the Jinyi Guard of the Ming Dynasty, which is divided into two guards: internal and external, the internal guard is mainly military, and the outer guard is mainly intelligence exploration and information collection.

The internal guards are mainly Sima Yu's personal guards, recruiting a total of 2,000 elite soldiers, supplemented by special training, mainly responsible for protecting Sima Yu's safety and completing the special tasks assigned by Sima Yu.

The outer guard is composed of a large number of peripheral intelligence personnel, who hide in the civilian population on a daily basis and secretly collect intelligence.

With the increase of population and the expansion of territory, the soldiers and horses under Sima Yu have become insufficient, even if the Yu family army under the command of Yu Dayou joins, there are only 2W soldiers and horses in the entire Qilin Town, and there are more than enough to defend, if you want to expand, it is not enough.

Sima Yu once again set up a pro-guard cavalry battalion, expanding the original 200 pro-guard cavalry to 2,000 people, and transferring Cheriji and Hu Chuquan in the Shaoshan camp to serve as military Sima.

Cherrigi and Hu Chuquan were originally from a small number of tribes in the north, and they were good at commanding cavalry, and they were completely reliable.

Although Sima Yu can trust the generals under his command, he also has to constantly expand his personal guard forces to prevent a situation in the future where the ministers are strong and the lords are weak.

The positions of the two military commanders vacated in the Shaking Mountain Camp were replaced by Chen Wu and Lu Hui, who were promoted from the army, and both of them had the strength to refine the body.

After practicing the forging body taught by Wang Yanzhang, many talents were also found in the Shaoshan camp, among which Chen Wu and Lu Hui were the best among them, not only were they not weak in force, but also good at the art of war, so Sima Yu directly promoted them to military horses this time, each holding 1000 military horses.

At the same time, Sima Yu incorporated the 2,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Shi Dan and Feng Xu into the garrison battalion, mainly responsible for guarding the security of Qilin County, and expanded the total number of recruits to 3,000 people, with Shi Dan as the captain, Pei Wei, Feng Xu, and Chen Bei as the military Sima.

With the completion of this army expansion, Sima Yu will have 25,000 soldiers and horses, 2,000 brocade guards, 2,000 personal guard cavalry, 8,000 sailors, 5,000 mountain shaking battalions, 5,000 guard battalions, and 3,000 garrison battalions.
