Yu was shocked and said, "This is too dangerous! Yu turned over the eldest Sun Ce was a teenager, and ordered Sun Ce to dismount immediately in the tone of his father and brother, and then said: "The grass is deep in this area, once there is any danger, I am afraid that it will be too late to get on the horse, please lead the horse, I am good at using a spear, please let me walk in front of the guard." The two finally walked to the grassy flat land, and they didn't have to worry about the enemy's ambush, so Yu Fu asked Sun Ce to get on the horse.

Sun Ce asked again: "I'm riding a horse alone, so what should you do?" ”

Yu flipped back and said: "I am good at walking, I can walk two hundred miles a day, and no one can compare to me since the war with the army, I don't believe you can try, I can definitely keep up." Finally, the two brothers met the army on a big road, Sun Ce took out the horn and blew it, and the troops knew that it was Sun Ce who called it, so they came back to escort it.

Sun Ce pacified the Danyang bandits and returned to Qu'a, and received another good news, it turned out that his friend Zhou Yu from his youth had abandoned his official position and crossed the river. Zhou Yu had long expected that Yuan Shu could not stay by his side for a long time, so he took the opportunity to cross the river and return. Sun Ce was overjoyed by this, and not only went to greet him in person, but also welcomed him with a magnificent military band. As soon as Zhou Yu arrived in Wu County, Sun Ce appointed him as the general of Jianwei Zhonglang, and also allocated him 2,000 soldiers and 50 horses to help him settle the house. Zhou Yu returned to the east this time, and specially brought his friend Lu Su to come with him, and as soon as Sun Ce met Lu Su, he sighed at his talent. Unfortunately, at this time, the grandmother who raised Lu Su died of illness, and before Lu Su had time to express himself in front of Sun Ce, he helped the coffin back to his hometown Dongcheng to mourn.

After Sun Ce pacified the seven counties in the west of Danyang, the situation in Jiangdong became more stable, and Sun Ce's territory included the three counties of Danyang, Wu County, and Huiji in Yangzhou, and the Taishou was held by Wu Jing, Zhu Zhi, and Sun Ce himself. Some people may find it strange that since Wu County is the political center of the Sun regime, why didn't Sun Ce take Wu County himself, but let Zhu Zhi take the position of Taishou? In fact, there was an unwritten rule in the Han Dynasty that the Taishou was never appointed as a person from the county. Sun Ce is a native of Fuchun, Wu County, and it is naturally inappropriate to serve as the Taishou of Wu County. On the other hand, Zhu Zhi is a native of Danyang County, Yangzhou, and he is not only the main hero of Wu County, but also a retainer that Sun Ce can fully trust, so such an arrangement is understandable.

Except for Gao Dai. The predecessor of Wu County, Xu Gong, could not escape Sun Ce's poisonous hands. At this time, Sun Ce had a good relationship with the Eastern Han Dynasty court presided over by Cao Cao, but Xu Gong secretly went to the court and asked the court to levy Sun Ce to Xu Capital to take care of it nearby, so as not to become a disaster in Jiangdong. Although Xu Gong died, the family he raised was hidden among the people, waiting for an opportunity to avenge his master.

At this time, Sun Quan, who was only 16 years old, served as the head of Wujun Yangxian under the arrangement of his eldest brother Sun Ce, and he was already a personality degree. The young master, who is benevolent and decisive, often participates in the discussion of military plans, and the views he puts forward are quite insightful, and even Sun Ce sighs to himself. At this time, Sun Quan, who was a good warrior, gathered several close friends of similar age, including Zhu Ran, Pan Zhang, Hu Zong and others, who later became Sun Quan's important cronies and courtiers.

Later, after Sun Ce received Yuzhang and Luling, he finally unified the entire territory of Jiangdong, including Danyang, Wujun, Huiji, Lujiang and Yuzhang. and the newly separated six counties such as Luling. Think about it five years ago, Sun Ce was only 19 years old when he raised his troops to cross east. The official title is only a small Huaiyi lieutenant, led more than 1,000 people to set off from Shouchun, and five years later became the hegemon of the six counties in Jiangdong, and became one of the few princes in the world, and its strength was enough to rival Guan Yu, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao.

However, it was said that Liu Bei and others sent out a message, and went all the way west to Liangzhou City. The group marched for more than 20 days and finally came to Liangzhou City, Xiliang Mu Zhang Ji and Xiliang Thorn Shi Jia Xu and Zhenxi General Zhang Liao and Deputy General Yang Qiu and his party have been waiting under Liangzhou City, long before Liu Bei and others arrived, Zhang Ji first received the fast horse of the imperial court, saying that Liu Bei and his party will soon drive Liangzhou, Liu Bei as the emperor's uncle and Guan Yu's sworn brother, and Zhu Jun and other veteran figures came together. Zhang did not dare to slack off, this was the first time since he took office in Xiliangmu for more than half a year to welcome a member of the imperial court to Liangzhou for inspection.

In the past six months, Zhang was appointed by Guan Yu as the West Liang Mu, he kept in mind Guan Yu's entrustment, at the beginning of his tenure, he continued to visit and investigate the various counties under his rule, and obtained a large number of first-line information, and then returned to Liangzhou He began to study the specific strategy of Xingliang, at the beginning of his tenure, Xiliang was in ruins, and the years of war made it very barren here, and there were no people in some places. And repeatedly issued military orders to the people, claiming that there would be no more complicated wars here in the future, promising to let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and stabilize the hearts of the people under the rule.

Just when Zhang Ji did the pacification work under his rule, Xiqiang raised troops to invade the border, Zhang Liao learned the news with 30,000 troops and the Qiang army to confront the Qiang army, the two sides after several battles, the Qiang army was defeated, the Qiang king fled in the wilderness, and never dared to invade the territory, the Qiang army really understood the power of Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao was hit by the falling flowers and flowing water, Zhang Liao's prestige spread far and wide in Xiliang and Xiqiang at once, and finally the Qiang army reached the point of talking about Zhang Liao's color change, Zhang Liao completely lifted the threat of Xiliang and the west, It has created a stable external environment for Zhang Jixingliang's work.

Zhang Ji ascended the throne of this Xiliang Mu this time, it is a great opportunity to improve his talents, which also fully shows Guan Yu's trust and respect for him, he has served as Feng Yi's county guard experience and experience, that is to say, he once had the ability to govern the county, and in Feng Yi's political achievements, made some achievements, which laid a solid foundation for him to serve as a feudal official, this time in charge of the entire Xiliang government affairs and military, for Zhang Ji is a new leap. This time he became the Taishou of Liangzhou, although he was also subject to others, but after all, he was the emperor of one side, the feudal officials of one side, and the princes of one side, which was very different from his previous position, and now he has the power to make a decision, and the same is the number one in the power space There is too much gap, Zhang Ji has now ascended the throne of this "number one", and Liangzhou is the largest city in Xiliang under his rule, with a total of more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians, and now he can be said to rule all the people, and Zhang is more majestic at this time. All major and small matters have to be taken care of, and affairs have begun to get busy

The people of Liangzhou City have a large population, so it is inevitable that there will be some grievances and grievances, and they are often accompanied by various "murders". To put it bluntly, Zhang is an official who integrates military, political, economic, and judicial affairs, so only by clearly distinguishing rewards and punishments can we achieve justice and promote the stability of the whole society, so in this way, it is necessary to clarify right and wrong, enforce the law impartially, and distinguish rewards and punishments.

Zhang not only did this Liangzhou pastor, relying on his previous experience of reading poetry and books, the gains and losses of the previous kings in governing the country, and his experience in being in charge of the county. Zhang Ji also tried to do some things, after all, others are smart, everything is thorough, Zhang Ji works during the day, and buys lamps at night to study hard, and he must pay for what he is inspired to do. After the previous fierce battle, Xiliang's losses are not small, and they have been reduced in terms of people, money, and materials, and it can be said that all kinds of waste are prosperous. Zhang Ji took over a mess, and he wanted to straighten out Xiliang's affairs from the beginning.

In addition, there are six counties, including Jincheng, Dunhuang, Zhangye, Xiping, Xihai, and Jiuquan, a total of seven large counties. Zhang is not only born as Feng Yi's Taishou, but he is well aware of the importance of this county guard, and as a county guard, there is no shortage of people under the rule of the county guard, and he also leads many county orders. The responsibility is heavy, and in order to make a difference under the rule, we must first build a capable leadership team in order to carry out the work, this team must be reliable and loyal to oneself and have the ability, only by establishing this team can we do a career under the rule, this is a team.

Zhang Ji served as Feng Yi's county guard before, and he was able to do so much to achieve. In addition to the effective policies and measures he formulated, an important reason for the two is that he has to appoint people on the basis of merit, and in the years when he served as Feng Yi's county guard, Zhang promoted a large number of talents and enriched them to leadership positions. Of course, the most promoted are the county order, although the official position of the county order is low, but it is the local leader, the power should not be underestimated, if they have the ability to govern a county well, all the county government affairs will go up, then the entire county government affairs will also go up, if a county has problems, it will inevitably hinder the development of the entire county, this is also the often said bucket principle, Zhang Ji, who has served as the county guard for so many years, is naturally cautious in terms of personnel, this time he came to Xiliang, came to this strange territory as a leader, Although Guan Yu has equipped himself with a right-hand man, Zhang is still in urgent need of a group of talents to make a career, but Zhang Ji raised this issue with Guan Yu at the beginning of his tenure, and he asked Guan Yu to bring a group of people from the previous Feng Yi to follow him to Xiliang, that is to say, Zhang Ji moved troops from Feng Yi to follow him to Xiliang, which is also the condition that Zhang Ji took on the first hand to come to Xiliang and talk to Guan Yu, at first Guan Yu disagreed, if those people were taken away by him, wouldn't Feng Yi be empty? However, he still couldn't screw Zhang Ji's request several times, and later Guan Yu simply agreed to his request.

Zhang Ji brought a few "confidants and favorite generals" from Feng Yi, and these people are also his capable generals, but contrary to the norm, these people brought by Zhang Ji are not the people around him, let alone the officials who assist him, but all the county orders, that is, he came to Xiliang with a few county orders, in fact, Zhang did not bring the people around him, but brought these people to Xiliang, with his ideas, came to Xiliang to take on a big responsibility, and to do some work according to Guan Yu's instructions, Zhang has no shortage of people who serve him and people who assist, The only thing he lacks is the "number one" in those localities, and he wants to enrich all the cadres he brought with him to the counties, so that they can continue to experience in their new posts just like himself

After some careful research and careful planning, Xiliang's personnel changes quietly kicked off, as the saying goes, "which soldier which general" is the official for his cronies to appreciate and trust the most, especially to a strange place to serve, to a place where life is not familiar with the place, but also need a group of cronies to assist, so that it can be conducive to the work, Zhang both decided to promote the group of people he brought to the counties as a leader, of course, this needs to do a good job in the placement of other incumbents, Zhang Jitong Guò investigated and found that of the seven counties under Xiliang's rule, only the county guards of two counties let him see the past, and the rest of the county guards stationed in the counties were either old or incapacitated, or they were riddled with diseases, and only the Taishou of two counties could be justified. In this way, five positions were vacated, and there were only four county magistrates he brought over, so he had to find another candidate.

After careful study, Zhang decided to let Yang Qiu serve as the Taishou of Liangzhou, he thought that Yang Qiu could not be more suitable for this role, Yang Qiu had experience in leading troops to fight and govern the army, and followed Ma Teng as a deputy general, and was not ambiguous in leading the military. Yang Qiu is also more familiar with the situation in Xiliang, and he is also more proficient in the affairs of Liangzhou, he belongs to the local officials, and he is familiar with local affairs, and the other is to promote Yang Qiu to this post to appease him. As the Taishou of the largest county in Xiliang, Yang Qiu also held real power, and his previous dissatisfaction was slightly calmer, and his motivation for work was also improved.

After the arrangement of the seven county Taishou, Zhang Jite set up a banquet to hold a farewell ceremony, and the Seven County Taishou will go to office on the same day, Zhang Jite arranged a luxurious banquet for them, and also put forward further requirements. I hope that they will be conscientious and conscientious in their new posts, dedicate themselves to their duties, make achievements, live up to Guan Yu and his expectations, and do their best to open up the situation under their rule. The first priority is to ensure the stability of the overall situation in the local area, and then plan various revitalization plans to gradually carry out various undertakings under his rule.

These county guards are all Qipin county commanders who have been in power for many years, and most of them are Zhang Ji's protégés, and they have been entrenched in the position of county commanders for many years, and they are experts in governing the country, and they have the ability to govern a county well. The most important thing is that Zhang Ji is at the helm for them, and as subordinates, they are never ambiguous in implementing Zhang Ji's various decisions, and the two sides cooperate with each other tacitly, and Zhang Ji's policies can be implemented quickly. That is, these people can make it easy, and the beats of both sides can be combined, so as to avoid unnecessary internal friction.

After the Yellow Turban Uprising and the complicated wars, Xiliang was already exhausted and desolate, and after learning about the situation in Xiliang, Zhang Ji secretly swore in his heart: He wants to change the entire Liangzhou and reorganize a new world, and he wants to rectify and drastically rectify! For this reason, he read and looked at the previous historical experience and lessons by candlelight, and combined with the reality of Liangzhou, began to study step by step, the task in front of him has to be said not arduous, to change the day of Liangzhou in just one year, how easy is it? But thanks to Guan Yu's trust, Zhang Ji was ordered to take charge of Xiliang, how could he slack off with the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he didn't stop investigating at the beginning of coming to Xiliang, and he didn't dare to slack off for a day. After strengthening this belief, Zhang both began to plan specific measures for rejuvenation, there is a saying that "those who seek righteousness will win, and those who do things because of the people will succeed", only by taking the people's affairs to heart, and considering things from the perspective of the people, Zhang Ji decided to rectify the situation, and he wanted to rebuild the place in Liangzhou

Zhang both Fazhao rectification involves three aspects, the most important is the personnel aspect, in addition to the county guard, for the county personnel under the county, Zhang both also has to rectify, through the investigation found that the county order, some people are already old, and some people are incapacitated, some even barren political affairs urgently need to carry out a big trouble, Zhang both decided to focus on rectifying the personnel of these counties to pave the way for rejuvenation, he repeatedly pondered and many times brewed with the people, and finally established a personnel rectification plan, That is, the county order position of the county under the rule of the public recruitment, of course, this recruitment is to take the exam, one is the written test, the second is the interview, the written test is the written answer, the interview is the face-to-face assessment, to pass the two exams and then from top to bottom from high to low ranking, merit-based admission, the admitter is to serve as the county order, promoted to the seventh grade, 200 stone - 500 stone, the admission quota is nine, and then the nine admitted people are ranked from top to bottom from high to low. Then according to the ranking of the distribution, the higher score to the county order, in turn, this meritocracy examination system can be said to create a precedent for Liangzhou and even the real Xiliang to employ people.

After the location of the prefectural order is revealed, what should the original prefectural order do? There are many people who are very old and have been in power for a long time, and they have made a lot of contributions to Liangzhou, so they can't let these people return to their hometowns, right? Zhang has also done in-depth research and consideration on this point, and Zhang has been more thoughtful about their arrangement, and Zhang has also given them a way out, that is, "promotion assessment", what is "promotion assessment"? It is to comprehensively assess the "morality, ability, diligence, filial piety, and integrity" of these people, to see who has the highest comprehensive index and who is the worst, and then come to the survival of the fittest. Those who are outstanding in the assessment will go directly to Liangzhou to serve, be promoted at the level, and arrange equivalent positions; The general assessment will not be promoted, and the corresponding salary will be given, and the older ones can return to their hometowns; those who are incompetent in the assessment shall be removed from office on the spot; Of course, there is an age limit, that is, even if the older assessment is excellent, it will no longer be promoted, but the generous salary and rank will no longer be arranged; To put it bluntly, it is to give young people a chance.
