The news of Dadan's defeat and death in Elak's army finally spread, and the royal court was in chaos, there was no one in charge at all, and Erak's sons were still very young, and there was no one to stabilize the situation, and on the third day after the news of Erak's suicide and the capture of two-thirds of the army reached the royal court, the royal court was completely chaotic.

Originally, there were only 20,000 people stationed in the royal court, that is, two thousand cavalry, after the news came, one of the ten thousand commanders had a different heart, in vain to control several sons of Ellak to establish themselves as kings, and the other captain Lored immediately led his troops to attack, and the two sides fought a big battle in the royal court, in the battle, several sons of Erak and the Yan clan were all killed by the ten thousand captains who tried to hold them hostage, and finally Lorid won the victory, but because several of Erak's sons and the Yan clan were all killed, so the royal court has existed in name only, Even if Lored wanted to support a prince as the big single, he couldn't find anyone.

The Xiongnu generals everywhere wept bitterly when they heard the news that Da Dan Yu was defeated and died, that there was a great battle on the royal side, and that all the heirs of Elak Da Dan Yu were dead, and the Xiongnu Empire collapsed like this.

Within a few days, the Xiongnu generals in various places gathered their troops and firmly controlled their own troops, and it was obvious that they had realized that at this time, whoever had soldiers in their hands would have the right, and those who did not have soldiers would be slaughtered.

The other tribes of the Huns and the Hu people in various places began to rebel against the rule of the Huns, and they began to organize young men in their respective tribes to take up swords and guns and fight with the Huns for pastures, cattle and sheep, but because Erak had just died, the kings of the four courtyards in the south, east and northwest were still there. They all had a lot of troops in their hands, so the remnants of the Xiongnu Empire were still there, and these attached peoples did not dare to be bold enough to directly confront the Xiongnu army. And now only the Ostrogoths Diordemir and Gepid Aldaric have the strength to fight with the Hun army, but they have just fought with the army of Erak, although they forced Erak to death and captured more than 20,000 Hun troops, but their own losses are not small, and the army must be allowed to rest and replenish its strength. Therefore, they are also now also silent, and have not provoked the Hun army in other places.

After Qin Dong took over the overall military and political affairs of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion, he was preparing to strengthen his control over the army. But when he heard the news that the royal court no longer existed, and that only Lored was stationed there with more than 10,000 troops, he understood that in fact, the Xiongnu Empire was already a dead country at this time, and the era of generals from all over the country supporting their own troops and separating the feudal towns had arrived.

Now including Serbia. The region to the east and south of the lower Danube. And Greece, north of Macedonia, and the area west of the Eastern Roman Empire are all the territory of Qindong, and there is only one force in Qindong in this territory, but there are two sets of administrative teams in this territory, which is not only inefficient, but also some things are blamed on each other, which will cause unsmooth and chaotic government decrees in the long run, and it is time to reform the official system and unify the government decree.

Qin Dong summoned most of the officials in his jurisdiction to discuss the reform of the official system, and this matter could not be delayed. His original subordinate officials were somewhat incompatible with the officials of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion, and the efficiency of the two sides was very different. How can this work?

On January 10, 455 AD, Qin Dong gathered all the official representatives to discuss the reform of the official system, and had already sent the relevant news and official documents in advance, so the officials were not surprised, but some people with political wisdom knew that Qin Dong was going to unify the decree, and at the same time, it was also to return the power to the Eastern Courtyard Palace.

The general trend of reforming the bureaucratic system has been formed, and this is inevitable, and only a small number of people oppose it, and the majority of officials hope that the government decree will be unified, so that things can be done in this way, and at the same time, if they are lucky, they may be able to get a big piece of the cake.

The Great King's Hall in the East Courtyard.

A long voice sounded: "The king has arrived-" Although the Xiongnu Empire has died, Qin Dong must continue to use the name of the king of the Eastern Courtyard, otherwise his leadership will be questioned, and the existence of the Great King's Mansion of the Eastern Courtyard will not be tenable, because the military force he relies on most is mainly the Huns, and not only that, but the kings of the other three courtyards will also be hostile to him.

All the officials on both sides of the hall stood up and bent down to Qin Dong and saluted, "See the king!" ”

Since Qin Dong inherited the first qiē of Adika, he first controlled the military and political power of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion, and then immediately organized disaster relief and resettlement of disaster victims and refugees, and in a short period of time, the disaster situation in the territory was controlled, and he also dispatched the army to help the victims and refugees build houses, distribute food and forage, not only so that the disaster was controlled in the shortest possible time, but also gave the army something to do, so that those unscrupulous generals had no chance to rebel even if they wanted to. Nor did they dare to risk being hostile to all the soldiers.

Through this series of measures, Qin Dong's leadership ability has been reflected in the eyes of the officials of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion, and his prestige in the hearts of the people of all ethnic groups has been established, although the disaster is strict, but there are very few people who starve to death and freeze to death, all thanks to Qin Dong's reserve grain system, he has established reserve granaries in various towns and cities in his previous territory, and the grain harvested every year is purchased by the local government office at the market price, which slightly raises the price of grain, so that the farmers can benefit, and wait until the weather becomes cold, When grain decreases and prices rise, selling grain in open positions to curb price rises is not only a good way to control grain prices, but also to enable the economy to develop steadily, but this is not enough; after the reform of the official system is fully completed, it is also necessary to introduce more policies to develop production and develop the economy, so that peasants, herdsmen, and workshop workers can all benefit, and when the people have money, the tax revenue of the government will naturally be more, and the fiscal revenue will be rich, and there will be enough money to recruit soldiers to develop armaments, and the army will be strong and able to protect economic development.

After Qin Dong sat down, he pressed his hand down, and when all the officials sat down, he said: "I invited all of you here today, just to reform the official system, you all know that the Xiongnu Empire is dead, but we, the remnants of the previous dynasty, are not dead, we still have to live, we still have to ensure that the people living in this land that we can control can live and work in peace and contentment, to ensure that their homeland is not invaded by foreign enemies, to ensure that they have buns, steamed buns, bread to eat, clothes and shoes to wear, this is our mission for a long time in the future." In order to do this, we must solve a problem at this stage is the unification of the decree, although the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Yuan Dawang Mansion, but in fact it is another set of teams, I think you all know this, so in order to make the official office work efficiently, so that officials at all levels do not pass the buck to each other, so that the decree is unimpeded, the unified decree and the reform of the official system have to be put on the agenda, do you have any opinions? ”

The starting point of Qin Dong's remarks was very high, and the starting point of the unified decree and the reform of the official system was placed on the moral high ground, and everything was for the people under his rule, which made it almost impossible for the officials who wanted to oppose it to find any useful excuses, even if it was to find excuses if they were not weighty, it would be completely self-inflicted.

Felton, the former head of the Zuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, appointed him to be fully responsible for the work of the Zuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion after Qin Dong took over the military and political power of the Zuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, he stood up and turned to Qin Dong and saluted: "Great King, it stands to reason that we have no right to reform the official system, but the Xiongnu Empire has been divided, the royal court no longer exists, and Da Shan Yu Erak has no heirs to inherit Shan Yu's position, so we can only decide on our own, in order to be able to efficiently implement the king's decision, we must unify the decree and reform the official system, On behalf of the officials of the Skir tribe, I fully support the king's reform of the bureaucracy! ”

Subsequently, several officials stood up to express their support, and a few officials who wanted to oppose had no one to act as a backstage.

Qin Dong smiled as he watched some people stand up in support, and after these people sat down, he asked, "Is there any opposition?" ”

At this time, whoever opposes it is really a fool, it is obviously the trend of the times, and those who oppose it are all mantis arms blocking the car, and they all choose to be silent, Qin Dong saw this and said: "Well, since there is no one to oppose it, then the decision to reform the official system is so decided, how to reform it in the end?" Are there any good reform plans for the adults who sit down again? ”

The person who puts forward the idea of reforming the official system must offend some people, but if the reform plan is adopted, the profit will definitely be not small, if anyone's reform plan is adopted by Qin Dong, Qin Dong will inevitably reward this person, and there will be no shortage of official wishes, and this person will be of great use.

In the officialdom, the attitude of the government must be clear, and the official with an ambiguous attitude must not be good, so after Qin Dong's words were asked, someone immediately stood up and said his opinion, this person is Peteaus.

"The king, his subordinates thought that they could follow the example of the Roman Empire and divide all the territories into several regions, such as Serbia as a region, Sedica and the surrounding areas as a region, the region north of the Balkan Mountains as a region, the area west of Pazar and the region west as a region, and the area south of the fortress of Razlog as a region, a total of five regions, and the king could send capable officials to serve as governors of each of these five regions, and under these regions, each region would be divided into a number of counties. In order to achieve the unity of the administrative decree, the governors of the counties and counties under the governor's management thought that it was necessary to abolish the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion and enrich the officials to all parts of the country as officials.
