At this time, Ge Hu came in to report, and Zhao Duwei and Hu Chang asked to see him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Gao Shun let them in.

"Meet the military advisor, meet the Taishou."

Gao Shun said, "Please be seated." ”

"Master Xie!" As he spoke, Zhao Duwei and Hu Chang sat down on the east side of the lobby; Then Zhao Rui said straight to the point: "Gao Junshi, Cao Taishou, Liu Taishou have left, and the master Bo and Gong Cao have left with Liu Taishou; I and Chief Hu were appointed by the imperial court, and I don't know if Cao Taishou will stay with us; and whether the Cao Peng, the three elders, and the superintendent who were appointed by Liu Taishou at the beginning will stay in office, and everyone recommended me and the two of us to come to consult."

Gao Shun said: "Captain Zhao, Chief Hu, I think you also know that His Majesty's holy decree states that Cao Taishou has full authority to deal with the affairs of the county. ”

"Yes, Strategist, we have received orders, which is why we have come to consult."

Gao Shun said: "Cao Taishou has the right to choose whether to stay in office, and you also have the right to choose whether to stay in office, now I will talk about the plan first, and then you decide whether to stay in office, do you think this is good?" ”

"Strategist, please speak!"

"I discussed with Cao Taishou and others, and first put Macheng County under the jurisdiction of the Wuhuan Captain's Office, after all, it is closer to Ningcheng and has convenient transportation, because it is separated by a mountain, it is really inconvenient for Gaoliucheng to assist in defense and management; secondly, the county seat was moved to Daiwangcheng, and all the Han people in the north of the water were moved south; Thirdly, three prefectures were established in Dai County, the southern prefecture was the southern governor's district, the Gaoliucheng basin was the northern governor's jurisdiction, and the remaining area north of the water control was set up as the central governor's district, which was governed in Daoren County; Finally, the existing border army was selected, the old and weak were eliminated, and the unqualified ones were moved to the southern counties of the flood control area, the wasteland was reclaimed, and the people were settled, and the qualified ones were divided into two, led by the central and northern governors respectively; What do you two think? ”

Zhao Rui said: "Gao Junshi, I don't object to the southward relocation of the county, and I also support the southward relocation of the Han people in the north of the water, and the Macheng County is under the jurisdiction of the Wuhuan Captain's Office, I feel that it is also very reasonable, but I feel that after the existing border army is eliminated from the old and weak, there are not many officers and soldiers left, if the Daoren County and Gaoliucheng are guarded separately, the troops will be scattered, there are not many officers and soldiers in each place, and the defense will be more difficult, so I do not recommend setting up the central Governor's District." ”

Gao Shun said: "There are few soldiers, we can recruit again, if there is no central governor, the northern governor will be lonely in the north, very dangerous, the responsibility of the central lieutenant is to maintain the traffic safety of the northern lieutenant district, guard against Xianbei from the west, and supervise the Wuhuan people in Banshi County and Beipingyi County, otherwise give up Daoren County, it will be too difficult to recover it in the future, and there must be a bridgehead north of the water; More importantly, if there was no Daoren County, the Xianbei people would go south from the Yin Mountains and hills, bypass Pingcheng, go east along the plain area north of Zhishui, go straight to Shanggu County, and reach Juyong Pass all the way, then the situation would be dangerous; As for the defense, if the central lieutenant is attacked, the northern lieutenant and the southern lieutenant will come to the aid at the same time; If the Northern Governor is attacked, the Central Governor and Captain Huwuhuan will come to the rescue. ”

Zhao Rui began to think about Gao Shun's words, Gao Shun took the opportunity to check the attributes of Hu Changguan, the force value is 43, the intelligence is 65, and the politics are 62, the attributes are a little low, as a low-level official, it is a little bad as a Taishou chief, and Zhao Duwei is not at the same level, there is no suitable person to replace him for the time being, so he can only stay in office for the time being.

Seeing that Zhao Rui was still thinking, Gao Shun said again: "I also plan to put the area south of Jiming Mountain under the jurisdiction of Shanggu County; The area north of Jiming Mountain is under the jurisdiction of the Wuhuan Commander's Office, and currently only governs the three counties of Macheng, Ningcheng and Guangningcheng; In this way, if one is attacked, the others can support each other and echo each other from afar. ”

Zhao Rui raised his head and said: "Military Division, this is very good, but the distance between Shanggu County and the Wuhuan Captain's Mansion is too far, I suggest that a military city be built at the foot of Chimney Mountain, north of Huangyang Mountain, and on the bank of the Yanghe River, which can not only protect the security of the northern part of Shanggu County, but also ensure the material supply of the Captain's Mansion, shorten the distance of reinforcements, and more importantly, ensure the safety of the eastern part of Daijun, Daoren County only needs to guard against the enemy in the west, and there is no need to worry about the safety of the flanks, so that the defense of all places can form a unified whole." ”

Gao Shun understood that the place Zhao Rui said was the Xuanhua City of later generations, in the era of cold weapons, Xuanhua's geographical advantages were very important, connecting Zhuolu Basin in the south, Zhangjiakou Basin in the north, Yangyuan Basin connecting Datong Basin in the west, and Weixian Basin in the southwest.

"Haha, Zhao Duwei's suggestion is good."

"It was the thinking of the military division that guided Rui, and Rui supported the adjustment plan of the military division, so that every point was attacked, and at least two garrisons would be reinforced; If you capture Pingcheng in the future, the effect will be even better. ”

Gao Shun also wants to occupy Pingcheng, but it is not yet time, and he still needs the Wuhuan people there to help contain the Xianbei people and relieve the defensive pressure on the flanks of Daijun.

Gao Shun said: "I am going to appoint you as the lieutenant of the central part of the county, leading half of the troops to garrison Daoren County, but for the sake of the unification of salaries, you can only enjoy the salary of six hundred stones, the southern commander, the northern commander, the captain of Shanggu County and the military horses of the school captain's mansion are all six hundred stones, and the commander will directly manage the troops in the future, and the officers and above will be directly appointed by the Taishou, and the commander will have a chief officer in charge of clerical and miscellaneous affairs, and the chief officer will be treated the same as the county magistrate, and the salary will be five hundred stones, I don't know if Zhao Duwei is willing?" ”

Zhao Rui thought about it for a while, he was originally from a good family, and it was not easy to get to this point, if he lost this position, the court might not arrange a new job; Gao Shun is young, he has won 3 Taishou level positions at one time, and he will have greater achievements in the future, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to follow them; More importantly, he integrated Dai County, Shanggu County and Xiaowei District, and Han Ming moved south, and in the future, there was no drag to protect Han Ming in the north, and he could let go of dealing with other races, and he would definitely be able to gain a lot of military achievements; In the end, Gao Shun and the others are not hypocritical, they can be open and honest with him and treat each other as equals, since the other captains are treated like this, it doesn't matter, everyone has the psychology of not suffering from widowhood but suffering from unevenness. So Zhao Rui said: "Strategist, Rui accepts your arrangement; It's just that Rui suggested that when the county seat and the Han people north of Zhishui are relocated, they will set up the central Duwei District, I am worried that the small Taoist City will not be able to accommodate many people, and winter is coming, so we must speed up the relocation, otherwise how will the relocated people survive the winter? ”

"Well, I take your suggestion; Tomorrow, the salaries owed by the army will be repaid, and the army will begin to select and eliminate the old and weak. ”

"Thank you, Strategist."

"Chief Hu, I think you also know that the county will not pay the court taxes in the future, but the court will not allocate funds to the county again, so the money and food of the county in the future will be very tight, and the difference will be paid by me personally, so I lowered the salary of the county lieutenant and other soldiers, and the salary of the chief official was also adjusted to 500 stones, I don't know if you can accept it?"

Hu Quan had similar thoughts to Zhao Rui, so he said: "Strategist, I accept it." ”

"Well, you will continue to serve as the chief officer, and you will be fully responsible for the relocation of the county, and you can announce to the outside world that you will cancel the taxes and all conscription such as household taxes, oral taxes, calculation fees, and contributions for the county this year; Peasant households that occupy less than 100 mu of cultivated land and whose per capita income is less than 10 mu will have their land tax cancelled and only need to pay a tax of 100 catties per person. ”

Hearing Gao Shun say this, Chief Hu was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and excitedly bowed to Gao Shun and said: "Thank you for the people of the county, thank you, thank you!" ”

Zhao Rui and Hu Quan saw that Gao Shun had been exempted from so many taxes at once, and it was worth lowering their salaries even a little more.

Hu Quan stayed in office, and he was regarded as the chief representative of the civil officials, so he asked: "How do the military advisors and Taishou treat other county officials?" ”

Gao Shun thought for a while, and felt that the system could not synthesize too many junior civil officials for a while, so he said: "Tomorrow according to the previous standard to make up the arrears of salaries, and if it is issued in the future, it will be issued according to the new salary standard, this relocation will be regarded as an assessment of you, according to the performance of each person, it will be gradually adjusted afterwards, tomorrow I will first appoint the county lord Bo and the post supervisor, the current post supervisor will be your deputy first, and the three elders and other Cao officials will stay for the time being; The day after tomorrow the relocation will begin. ”

"Yes, Strategist."

"Captain Zhao, after you go back, sort out the existing list of officers and the salary standards of officers and soldiers at all levels, and send it tomorrow morning. The same is true of Chief Hu, who will send the names of the officials and the salary standards tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes, Strategist."
