A few days later, Zhou Zhi moved to the post of general of the town army, increased the number of food towns by 500, and merged the previously sealed households, a total of 1,200 households, and became the most important minister of the Chu State.

Immediately afterwards, two long lists came out of Shangshutai one after another, causing an uproar.

Among them, Yongzhou Thorn Shi Fa was promoted to Wei Wei, and Yizhou Thorn Shi Kuai Yue was promoted to Dasi Nong. Jingzhao Taishou Lai Gong served as the Yongzhou Thorn History, and Zhuge Jun served as Jingzhao Taishou. Jiangxia was too shou Du Ji was appointed as the assassin of the state, and Ma Liang was appointed as Jiangxia Taishou. In view of the vast territory of Jingzhou and the increasing population, it is divided into two major thorn history departments in Jingbei and Jingnan.

Changsha Taishou Liu Ang was transferred to Jingbei Thorn History, and Liangzhou surrendered Zhao Ang to Changsha Taishou!

Lingling Taishou Pang Ji was transferred to Jingnan Thorn History, and Liangzhou was demoted to Liang Xu as Lingling Taishou!

The three counties of Liangzhou were merged, Liangzhou surrendered Yin Xian as the Taishou of Shangjun, Li Fu was transferred to the Beidi Taishou, and Liangzhou subordinated Zhang Gong to serve as Shuofang Taishou to assist the soldiers of the Northern Army to rebuild Shuofang County!

Nanzhong cut the Governor's Mansion and changed it to the Department of Nanzhong Thorn History, and Li Hui, the former governor of Nanzhong, still served as the Nanzhong Thorn History.

After the announcement of this edict, there was an uproar, the important thing is not the appointment of talents, but the redivision of the Department of Thorn History, although the Chu State has also changed the Guanzhong region to Yongzhou before, but it is only a change of name, at most a small range of counties and counties, but now it is a real division of state governance, there are two more Thorn History Department, which makes many people of insight begin to faintly realize more potential meanings.

Just three days later, another edict was issued, which completely implemented that speculation, and the original text is as follows:

"The Han dynasty declined, the dynasty collapsed, and the people were displaced. The Chinese split. Now the king of Chu is a soldier of benevolence and righteousness. To help the world as a task, the deployment of strong generals and soldiers, in response to the mandate of heaven and calm the troubled times.

The commander of the four armies under the command of General Wei's Mansion is in charge of the border passes:

Lu Xun, the general of Zhendong, commanded the Eastern Army, and was in charge of the Haiyun Army and the Jingzhou Border Army.

Deng Zhi, the former general of Pingbei, was promoted to the general of Zhennan and commanded the southern army.

Originally written by General Li Yan. He was promoted to general of Zhenxi and commanded the Western Army.

Jia Kui, the former general of Shotsheng, was promoted to general of Zhenbei and commanded the northern army.

General Gao Shun is in charge of the Four Saints and the Quartet of the Eight Armies:

The hussar general Zhao Yun was in charge of the Four Holy Army, the general Zhang Hetong of Qinglong, the general of the expedition to the south, Xu Huang, the general of the south, the commander of Zhuque, the general of the expedition to the west, Wei Yan, the commander of Baihu, and the general of the expedition to the north, Huang Zhong, the commander of Xuanwu.

Zhang Liao, the general of the chariot cavalry, was in charge of the Quartet Army, the general of Pingdong Ju Yi was in charge of the east, and the general of Pingnan Han Meng was in charge of the south. The Pingxi general Ma Chao ruled the west, and the Pingbei general Gan Ning ruled the north.

The 1st Guards Regiment was renamed the Yulin Army. Coach former general Xu Sheng and rear general Yan Liang!

The Second Guards Regiment was renamed the Imperial Forest Army, and the commander was General Dian Wei on the left and General Chen on the right!

The three elite armies of Liangzhou were reorganized, with a total of 50,000 sword and bow cavalry, heavy armored cavalry, and Xiliang iron cavalry, and an iron cavalry corps was set up. The main general is General Pound, and the deputy generals Ma Dai, Ma Tie, and Ma Xiu! ”

This list can be said to have caused an uproar, Yu Lin Jun! What is Yulin Army?

The king of Chu is going to be the emperor!

In a short period of time, this statement quickly spread in the streets and alleys, and people rushed to talk and tell their opinions. However, for them, although shocked and puzzled, there was no resistance, and even most of them were happy, and the rest of them almost remained unconcerned and did not care about themselves.

For the people of Chu State, the Han royal family has not heard of it for a long, long time, they now obey the laws of Chu State, see the development of Chu State, and accept the rule of Chu State, and even for many teenagers and young people in Jingzhou, they don't know very well who the current Han Tianzi is and who the queen is.

On the contrary, who the king of Chu is, who the queen of Chu is, and even how many concubines the king of Chu has, that is almost everyone knows.

It's just that the people are very excited now, but Wang Xu, as the person concerned, is completely confused, he doesn't understand what Shangshutai ministers mean?

Although the transfer of those civil and military forces was indeed approved by him, or appointed by him personally, he was just like that, as for the drafting of the list text, it was simply from Shangshutai, and even he knew the embellishment content on the list later than the people of Xiangyang.

He asked for the division of the Assassin History Department, but he only asked Shang Shutai to draft a name and assign an official with full-time jurisdiction to facilitate management, and he did not think of directly dividing the state in a clear way.

The matter of changing the name of the Guards Legion was also that he felt that it was very troublesome to call the first and second, so he asked Shang Shutai to think of a name casually, but he didn't think that in the end, he would directly give the name Yulin Army. The rumors spread to the North Palace, and when Wang Xu learned about it from the palace maid, he was really shocked.

After hurriedly sending a copy of the list to read, he was shocked, felt that the impact was too great, and he didn't know how to deal with this matter at all.

After thinking about it, he still felt that it was not safe, so he ordered someone to summon Guo Jia of the left Shangshu and Pang Tong of the right Shangshu!

The two of them are in charge of Shangshutai affairs, and this list is definitely related to them.

Not long after, Guo Jia and Pang Tong came to the Qinzheng Hall of the North Palace, and after a brief salute, Wang Xu hurriedly waved his hand to let the two sit down, and then grabbed the list text on the table and asked: "Fengxiao, Shiyuan, what is the matter with these two lists from your Shangshu platform?" ”

"Huh? List? ”

The two didn't seem to expect Wang Xu to ask this this time, but instead looked at each other inexplicably, their faces full of puzzlement.

After a pause, Pang Tong hesitated and asked, "Lord, but the content of the list is wrong?" ”

"There is no mistake!" Wang Xu shook his head.

The two were even more puzzled, and Guo Jia couldn't help but take over.

"Forgive the foolishness of the minister, then I don't know what the lord means?"

"I'm talking about the rhetoric in the letter, as well as the redivision of the Jingzhou and Yizhou Thorn History Divisions, and the renaming of the Guards Regiment to the Yulin Army!" Wang Xu frowned and said.

"Oh, that's why!"

Guo Jia and Pang Tong spoke in unison, suddenly shocked.

Then they looked at each other and smiled, Guo Jia said with understanding: "The lord and the ministers understand that although this matter is not the best time, it can be regarded as a smooth push, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Since the lord has that will. Then the ministers will definitely arrange the timing as soon as possible! I just hope that the lord will not be too anxious. After all, this kind of thing must be about building momentum and the right time, otherwise it will ......"

"Wait! Wait a minute!! Wang Xu hurriedly stretched out his hand to interrupt and said blankly: "What are you talking about?" What pros outweigh the cons? What my mind? ”

Pang Tong smiled heartily: "The lord doesn't need to say it explicitly, the ministers understand that the lord is an old minister of the Han Dynasty, and he also served the first emperor. Talking about good deeds hurts the legitimacy and majesty of the Chu State, and those ministers who meet are already arranged. The ministers of Shangshutai, whether it is the three princes and the nine secretaries or the chief and deputy generals of the major generals' mansions, have all fully agreed and are discussing how to act. ”

"But I don't have anything else on my mind! I don't understand what you're saying, you don't think I'm going to take the position, do you? Wang Xu was speechless, his face full of innocence.

"Your Lord, You ......"

Guo Jia's eyes widened and he carefully observed Wang Xu's expression, he had followed Wang Xu for many years. He already knew the roots, and he didn't need to say more, he could tell whether some of the words came from Wang Xu's sincerity.

After a long time. He confirmed the truth from Wang Xu's helpless expression, and was stunned.

"Lord, you really don't want to carry the position?"

"I really didn't want to carry it right now!" Wang Xu said affirmatively, crying and laughing. "I wonder where you learned I had this intention?"

"But didn't the lord let the state be divided into governance?" Pang Tong was puzzled.

"I am asking for the division of the state, but it is purely because the population of Jing and Yizhou is increasing, the area is too extensive, the roads have been smooth in recent years, and the economy is prosperous, so it is divided for easy governance, for example, Li Hui of Nanzhong will exercise the right to assassinate the history alone in the future, and it will no longer be attributed to the Yizhou assassin history moderation, and it will not be allowed to divide the state land!"

"Then the lord asked his subordinates to change their names to the Guards Legion, and he didn't imply that his subordinates were equal?" Pang Tong asked again.

"There's really no hint, I just don't think the names of the two major guards legions are too good, and I don't bother to think about the names, so I threw it to you talented people to think about that day, but I didn't think that you would get me a Yulin Army directly, how can it end now?"

"This ......" Guo Jia and Pang Tong looked at each other.

After being silent for a long time, Guo Jiacai blamed himself: "The lord is angry, this matter is all because the ministers and others will misunderstand the lord's intentions, at that time, the lord suddenly gave us a special order to name the directly subordinate guard corps, coupled with the division of state governance, he mistakenly believed that the lord intended to carry the position, but he didn't think about it, but he made an assertion, exceeded the duty of the courtier, and implored the lord to surrender!" ”

"Huh! You guys! Wang Xu sighed and looked at the two helplessly.

"Forget it, I'm also at fault in this matter, I shouldn't have said it together like that when Shangshutai was deliberating, it caused sensitivity and had nothing to do with you! Now the question is, what do we do next? Although the state of Chu has become a country, independent and self-reliant, and has the intention to unify the world, is it too early for me to take the throne? ”

Guo Jia and Pang Tong were a little silent, and Pang Tong was sullen for a long time before he said bitterly: "Lord, now that the list has been distributed to all parts of the entire Chu State, even if it is to be withdrawn, it will be too late, and it will not take long for this kind of thing to inevitably cause a strong reaction from the Wei State and the Wu State, maybe they are already preparing for it......"

Pang Tong didn't say any more, but they all knew that Wei and Wu would definitely openly denounce Wang Xu as a traitor, and use this to make a big fuss and hit Wang Xu and the Chu court!

Guo Jia thought of the seriousness of the matter, didn't care so much, and said bluntly: "This matter has not also become, if you don't do it, it will make the lord become a wavering rebel!" ”

This thing doesn't seem to be a big deal, but in fact, it's already a big deal now, and the list has been released across the country, even if Wang Xu said that it wasn't what he meant, no one believed it.

Then, under the wanton condemnation and rumors spread by Wei and Wu, if Wang Xu does not take advantage of the situation to become emperor, it is equivalent to recognizing the fact that he is still a Hanchen, and it will be considered to be swaying left and right, and he is indecisive between rebellion and rebellion, which is definitely a big taboo.

After a long time, Guo Jia took a deep breath and said again: "Lord, causing the current situation, the minister is guilty, and he will never shirk his responsibility, but if he thinks about the Chu State, the minister thinks that the lord can only set up a banner to unify the world, and he will say that the truth of today's division and the decline of the Han Dynasty are the reason for ending the dispute and becoming the emperor!" ”
