Sure enough, Wei Xi asked them to pay!

The first is to sponsor the current rectification of the city's appearance and the construction of roads in the urban area;

Businessmen are also aware of this and support it, after all, everyone wants their hometown city to be beautiful and beautiful. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

For this patronage, Wei Xi gave a reputation, as long as any road or block was repaired, the sponsor could be recorded in the stone.

Second, he asked them to build branch roads in various counties and townships, and he announced that the imperial court was ready to build a high-speed road from Dengzhou to Luoyang, which was of course the imperial court expenditure, but the branch roads, in addition to the most important areas invested by the imperial court, could also be invested by merchants.

The advantage is that they can collect "tolls", and others use their roads, that is, they have to pay a toll.

In addition, you can sponsor the construction of national highways, which has the advantage of having priority in road construction contracting rights and material procurement, and of course, the quality is also passable.

At present, the economy is underdeveloped, the bidding environment is not mature, and it is good for someone to work!

Then there is Wei Xi who asked them to increase investment in trade routes and sell Dengzhou's native products to Luoyang!

Listening to the horse such as a few treasures said: "We Dengzhou by the sea, there are golden hook sea rice (dried shrimp), all kinds of grilled fish fillet, sea cucumber, abalone, dried kelp, dried scallops, razor clams, sea rainbows, seahorses, etc., all of them are top and croak, each piece is super delicious." ”

"Such good products, sell them to Luoyang, let the people of the imperial capital also taste them, know the taste of our Dengzhou seafood, I will personally advertise it to you!"

At the banquet, it was agreed to set up a "Dengzhou Business Group" to sell Dengzhou specialties to other places, especially the two capitals.

Before, Dengzhou also had trade to the two capitals, but it was not a climate, after Wei Xi arrived, Dengzhou specialties were continuously sent to the two capitals

Wei Xi reassured everyone and said: "I will stay in Dengzhou for a long time, even if I go out to fight, I will also receive the title of Dengzhou, and I will continue to take care of the fathers and villagers in Dengzhou." ”

Moreover, in order to further draw in the relationship, Wei Xi revealed that the imperial court was about to set up a governor's mansion in Dengzhou, and he would be the governor.

In this way, the military administration of Dengzhou is grasped by him, and he is the lord of Dengzhou!

The meaning is very clear, everyone follows him, and he covers everyone!

Now the merchants were overjoyed, and they thought that they would be happy for at least a few years.

……

Dengzhou does want to set up the governor's office, the governor's office is the Tang Dynasty in an important area set up the local administrative body, the governor often to the king of the king and the long history of the agent of his position, the rest of the governors are divided into upper, middle and lower three classes (according to the number of households), the first year of Zhenguan (627), the inland governor's office was abolished, Dengzhou originally did not have the governor's office, after the arrival of the horse Weixi, Dengzhou has the governor's office.

The establishment of the Governor's Mansion was to facilitate his establishment and control of the Dengzhou Water Division.

Wei Xi is resolute and resolute, seizing the day, and he has the foundation that Boss Xia gave him before, and Boss Xia's fleet has the role of training the team, and he has provided him with 2,000 people at once!

Boss Xia's youngest son, Xia Xing, gloriously became the captain of the First Military Mansion of the Marine Corps!

When Xia Xing led his men and horses in a brand-new military uniform, Xia Lao Boss secretly wiped his tears.

It's not such a big investment!

The Dengzhou Naval Division was established in early March of the fourth year of Yifeng (679), with an establishment of 8,000 sailors and 5,000 marines.

The new term Marine Corps was also the first time that the Tang people saw it, and Wei Xi, the horse who established it, explained: "The marines are the troops that attack the land from the sea. ”

After the establishment of this Marine Corps, the severity of its training was crowned the first of all armies, and those who saw it palpitated!

In addition to the regular queues, weapons, archery, and physical training, there are various forms of rigorous training, including high temperature resistance, cold resistance, dizziness resistance, and wilderness survival.

Cold-resistant training, such as in the field at minus 30 degrees Celsius, only a down duvet and a military coat to survive the night.

During the swimming training, each person had to swim 6 to 10 miles long, and when carrying weapons, he had to swim 1 mile.

In endurance training, each person carries 20 kilograms and runs for ten miles for no more than half an hour (30 minutes).

After half a year of physical fitness and basic subject training, special professional training began, and strict training was carried out before you could get the logo of the Marine Corps... Crocodile epaulette, to become a glorious marine.

"The crocodile is the king of the water, and it can also fight on land, eat what it sees, bite what it sees! So we Marines, all crocodiles! The instructor said.

Well, the instructors of the Marine Corps, eighteen of them were trained by the Datong River in Tonghuang County, and the other eighteen were born and raised in Dengzhou and were capable fishermen in the sea, and they were taught by horses and together formed the first generation of Marine Corps instructors.

After that, the training syllabus was constantly updated, all instructors acted according to the syllabus, trained the team members, and the Marine Corps gradually took shape.

The ships of the Tang Dynasty were tall and sailless, with strong hulls (connected by iron nails), and flexible maneuvering (using rudders and hard sails).

Wei Xi did not use Western-style fast sailing ships, that kind of ships are relatively small, suitable for artillery battles and oceans, now there are no cannons, and the ocean is not necessary.

Since the establishment of the Dengzhou Naval Division, it has actively recruited personnel, built warships, and strived to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

Before the troops could form combat effectiveness, Wei Xi stretched out his tentacles and sent a fleet to travel to investigate the hydrological situation in various sea areas and draw nautical charts.

The members of the Dengzhou Naval Division recruited mostly from seaside fishermen's families, and it was a civilian team, because the wealthy families in the interior could not send officers.

In those days, there were not many people who dared to go to the sea to drink salt water, only the coastal people had the courage to go into the water, they were rich at best, but they were not powerful.

Therefore, Wei Xi's prestige in the water division is extremely high, because there are no princes, princes, Confucians, etc.

Dengzhou Sailor has become Wei Xi's new toy, what kind of urban management and sanitation are not worth mentioning, and he still has to do it as an uncle to engage in trade? At most, when the seafood was delivered to Liangdu, he went to eat it and showed it to the people of Liangdu.

He led the Marines in training, he directed them in exercises, and personally led them to storm the beach, and had a great time.

Wei Xi's physical strength was extraordinary, and the Marine Corps training syllabus was a piece of cake for him, while the poor others gave him a hard time in training, looking at their governors with infinite admiration.

The sailors are also very fun, the fleet, the flags during the day, the lanterns at night, day and night.

The fleet is arranged in different ranks according to the flag, sometimes forming a battle line to launch rockets, sometimes marching in columns, simulating a breakthrough through the enemy fleet, sometimes the vast sea is mighty, advancing in unison, spectacular!

In addition to having a lot of fun, Wei Xi wrote a letter to Princess Taiping when he had time, writing about his work experience and his feelings about missing her, and wrote a letter, that is, using the army to send a letter!

On this day, he had just returned to the Governor's Mansion from sea drills, and saw an urgent report from the military department waiting for him, the content of which shocked him: civil strife in Tibet, the suicide of Qinling in the Great Minister, and the surrender of the Tang Dynasty with 7,000 accounts by the sons of the family!
