Chapter 328: Disposition and Engagement
PS: Thank you for the support of book friends Yuanyuan Meat Tuantuan, Shi Zai Hui, and Halfway Home!
Later, Yang Rui also talked to Gao Shun, Zhang Ning, and Cheng Yu about what he encountered on the outer sea, and according to the speculation of several people, the island of Penglai Realm was likely to be in the open sea, so there were very powerful sea monsters around.
There are civilization barriers between various civilization regions, which is commonly known as national borders in the player's mouth, and before the game progresses to the opening of national borders, only by clearing some specific country levels can you reach other civilization regions, except for subsidiary civilizations and associated civilizations. And the location of the open sea is probably already outside the national checkpoint!
Yang Rui also thought of this after hearing the speculation of Cheng Yu and several people. In a previous life, a player from the Mexican civilization region had reached the deep sea area by chance, and when he tried to return after going through all the dangers, he happened to run into a national level in the depths of the sea, and this Mexican player later called the place he had visited before as the open sea.
Of course, the open sea mentioned in the two places is not necessarily the same concept, but Yang Rui is very clear that no matter where the island where Penglai Realm is located, the sea beasts in the surrounding sea are not what they can deal with at the moment! In this regard, Cheng Yu also advised Yang Rui not to explore the surrounding sea area for the time being.
In this way, there is nothing to worry about Yang Rui in Penglai Realm for the time being, and the peripheral array of Penglai Realm has been controlled by Yang Rui in his hands, and he can come back at any time, so Yang Rui temporarily left Penglai Realm after arranging for a group of soldiers to be trained in groups. Calculating the time, Yang Rui has been here for a long time, and it is time to go back and take care of the territories.
In fact, Yang Rui also has other plans. He was going to transfer some of the low-ranking soldiers in Dashan Town to the Penglai Realm to level up. On this basis, Yang Rui plans to further expand the scale of his subordinates. Increase the intensity of conscription as the number of lords allows, in anticipation of the upcoming second systematic scenario.
The number of soldiers that can be trained on the map of Penglai Realm is far from being saturated, and investing more soldiers into it is just right to make use of its monster resources, otherwise it would be a waste to put a good treasure land.
Fortunately, the cooldown time of Zhang Ning's Yellow Turban Transfer Order is almost over, and he can use it again immediately, as long as he finds a suitable target to transfer to another class, he can immediately add another 10,000 Yellow Turban soldiers.
If the Yellow Turban soldiers who have been transferred to the Penglai Realm are put into the Penglai Realm to level up, their speed of promotion will definitely not be slow. Yang Rui obtained many Yellow Turban soldier skill books in the plot of the Yellow Turban Uprising. Therefore, there will certainly not be a shortage of skills books.
When Yang Rui returned to Dashan City from Penglai Realm, the affairs in the territory were carried out in an orderly manner, even the peripheral matters such as catching horses in Ledu City were also carried out in an orderly manner, and a large part of this was due to Sun Qian, who was sitting in Dashan City, with his two territorial auxiliary skills, the development of Dashan City could be said to be thriving, and even several other territories also benefited a lot in terms of materials and personnel.
It took about three or four days, and Yang Rui checked each territory separately, and he was completely relieved.
During this period, Yang Rui asked Sun Qian for advice on his views and handling of the situation in Qingzhou, and then left the territory again. Before leaving, Yang Rui brought all the soldiers of the 3rd order and below except for the water pawns in the Najie, a total of more than 33,000 people.
The total number of soldiers above the 4th rank in the territory left behind reached more than 12,000. Among them, the cavalry soldiers still perform the duties of patrolling outside the territory and collecting disaster victims and displaced people; The water pawns of all levels are still full of training, patrolling, and collecting people in the Wenshui Valley, and they have not retreated because of the idle leveling resources in the territory.
The soldiers that Yang Rui took away for training included the 20,000 Yellow Turban soldiers who were transferred twice by Zhang Ning using the Yellow Turban Transfer Order, and some of the third-order soldiers that Yang Rui had withdrawn from Jiangji Wutun Town. After more than 30,000 soldiers were taken away by Yang Rui, Dashan City and various territories were obviously empty, but the defensive strength of various places was generally above the 4th order, and with the thoughtfulness of the Juping County Order, there would be no problem with the security of the territory for the time being.
Next, Yang Rui returned to Penglai again, and put all the soldiers he brought with him into the map. Yang Rui's entry into Penglai Realm this time was also through the stone pavilion in Huangxian County, but it was the entrance to the stone pavilion opened by using the array disk, which also verified that Yang Rui was no longer limited by the number of times he entered and exited Penglai Realm.
Two or three days passed, before Yang Rui came out of Penglai Realm again, he organized his private soldiers and Xiyuan New Army with a total of more than 90,000 people in advance, and led them by the soldiers with commanding talents, and then only Gao Shun was left in Penglai to take care of these soldiers to practice, and Zhang Ning and Cheng Yu were taken by Yang Rui.
Yang Rui is going to start to vigorously rectify Qingzhou this time, but first of all, Yang Rui still followed Sun Qian's construction, and took Zhang Ning and Cheng Yu to inspect the counties and counties in Qingzhou, and made a general impression of the situation in each county and county, as well as their attitude towards the Qingzhou Thorn History Department.
Of course, it is impossible for Yang Rui to stay in a certain county or county for too long, and it only took 10 game days to patrol around, basically just to look at the flowers and recognize his face. And Yang Rui did not expect to be able to negotiate with these county magistrates to achieve any results, in the process Yang Rui mainly did two things - to convey the intention of recruiting military taxes and collecting the displaced people.
In fact, these two are the functions of the assassin Shi, so Yang Rui also asked Cheng Yu to make a special charter, and passed it on to the county and county levels during the inspection.
The purpose of levying military tax is to form and maintain the army of the Department of Assassination and History, in order to ensure the normal exercise of the functions of the Department of Assassination, and each county has the responsibility to pay a certain amount of military tax in each year for the maintenance and operation of the Department of Assassination, and this part of the money is not very large, each county needs to pay 500 gold coins per year, and each county needs to pay 100 gold coins every year.
However, it is this small number of taxes, most of the counties and counties have not paid before, and the Department of Assassination can only collect some from the counties in batches in various names, most of them are coaxed and deceitful, and even need the Department of Assassination to say all the good things, and the other party is willing to take out some of it!
In this regard, Yang Rui did the opposite, directly asking the counties for the accumulated taxes owed over the years, and at the same time collecting a large amount of overdue taxes, after the two were added together, each county paid 20 years of taxes, that is, 10,000 gold coins for the county and 2,000 gold coins for the county.
After hearing Yang Rui's words, many people in the county couldn't help laughing on the spot, and even thought that this new Qingzhou Thorn History was not normal, not to mention the 20-year tax, with Yang Rui's method, I am afraid that the last child will not be able to collect it!
Even the civil official of the Assassin History Department, who Yang Rui temporarily brought with him to be responsible for spreading the matter, had no confidence when he conveyed the matter to the county, and he looked half-dead, he just endured the white eyes to convey the matter, and even he didn't believe that it could be effective in the end.
You must know that Yang Rui had already issued an order before inspecting the counties and counties, and he dismissed all three of the avoidable Zhizhong Practitioners, Book Cao Practitioners, and Bing Cao Occupations in one go! In the opinion of this civil official, although the order of dismissal may not be implemented, the three engaged in each charge of 1,000 soldiers and horses of the Assassin History Department, but he himself has no hole cards, and if he is dismissed by the Assassin Shi Master, there is not even a little room for maneuver.
Therefore, the civil officials have been following Yang Rui's instructions, and read out the tax affairs everywhere they go, and they would rather accept the eyes of the people of the county than keep their jobs first.
As for the matter of collecting displaced people, Yang Rui's approach is also a bit incredible. To say that the collection of displaced people was originally a thankless errand, and it would cost a lot of money to resettle the displaced people alone, so although this was also one of the most basic responsibilities of the assassin, no assassin was willing to take the initiative to do this before.
Especially in the Qingzhou area, due to natural and man-made disasters in recent years, the number of disaster victims and displaced people is much higher than that of other states, and it is simply overwhelming. didn't expect Yang Rui to pick up this errand first after arriving in the counties, which made people feel even more unwise.
That's it, Yang Rui actually combined the collection of homeless people with the collection of military taxes, claiming that for every 1 homeless person collected, the tax of 1 gold coin could be subtracted from his merit! This is such an unbelievable move, so much so that many counties and counties think that Yang Rui's assassination history is indeed something abnormal!
Yang Rui's inspection of counties and counties is actually not welcome, and many counties and counties just came forward with some people who are not very on the stage to deal with Yang Rui and others, even so Yang Rui still conveyed the measures as usual, and urged them to do their best.
In this process, Cheng Yu has been silently following Yang Rui's side, investigating the personnel and reactions of various counties and counties, in order to provide some basis for future actions. Zhang Ning, on the other hand, is responsible for collecting military taxes and displaced people, but she has been idle for the time being
And Yang Rui will definitely not let Zhang Ning idle for too long, after inspecting the counties and counties of Qingzhou for ten days, almost the entire Qingzhou subordinates learned about Yang Rui's unreliable deeds before the Qingzhou assassin history, but at this time Yang Rui took 40,000 yuan to make a decisive move.
In just one night, Yang Rui engaged in the Zhizhong of the plains, the book Cao who lived in Beihai and the soldiers who lived in Donglai, and the three powerful figures of the Qingzhou Assassin History Department were all arrested for the crime of rebellion, and on the second day, they were tied to the three gates of Linzi City, east and west, and the three soldiers of the 3000 state soldiers engaged in the Assassin History Department were all incorporated by Yang Rui.
