On the night of August 4, 187, the hall of the government of Tianmacheng County.

Ye Teng sat in the center, with almost all the civil officials in the territory such as Chen Gong, Lin Feng, Cheng Xiao, and Zhao Qing sitting in his left hand, and Cai Hui, Xie Gengxin, Zhou Tai, Zhang Liao, Jiang Qin, Wan Hao, Xu Xian, and other almost all the middle and high-level generals in the territory except for those who were still staying in Qianbi Village and Shilong Village.

"Convening you today, a banquet should have been held to welcome the new talents who have joined the forces of Tianma City-the prefecture-level peak civil officials, Chen Gong and Chen Gongtai.

Gongtai is resourceful and talented, and Ren Junshi can strategize and win thousands of miles; As an official, it is not a problem to govern the state and county; Gongtai is 35 years old this year, and has served in states and counties before, with rich experience, outstanding political achievements, and an outstanding reputation.

Therefore, today it is planned to appoint the public station as the county governor of Yanmen County! Do you have any different opinions? ”

Ye Teng got straight to the point and threw out the appointment of Chen Gong.

"No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" ……

With Ye Teng's absolute WeChat in the territory, what he decided, naturally no one would put forward different opinions in such a crowd.

"Okay, Gongtai, the burden of Yanmen County will be handed over to you." Ye Teng took out a storage ring containing the seal of the county and the official robe and handed it to Chen Gong.

"No! Gong dare not do his best?! Chen Gong bowed and took it.

Seeing that no one spoke, Ye Teng continued to speak:

"Now, nominally, the imperial court appointed me as the Taishou, but if I really take office now, I'm afraid that I may not be able to mobilize a single soldier in Yanmen County. Now please Chen Ping first introduce the current situation of Yanmen County, and then ask everyone to give advice and see how we should take over Yanmen County, so that I will not be overlooked in the future and become a puppet of the puppet. ”

"No!" Chen Ping stood up, first saluted Ye Teng, and then saluted the others present, and then began to introduce in a clear voice: "Yanmen County, with a radius of one million square kilometers and a population of more than 50 million, governs the Yin Pavilion and has 11 counties under its jurisdiction.

Like many counties in the Han Dynasty, the Taishou and county commanders of Yanmen County have always been liuguan and only nominal rulers. However, the real power is in the hands of other officials, and the children of their families are officials in this era, and their power is intertwined, ranging from a family member who may be born into a family to a county prince, who may be a side child of a big family or a descendant son of a small family.

Wang Rui, the current county of Yanmen County, is the son-in-law of the Taiyuan Wang family, and the younger brother of Wang Yun, the former servant and Yuzhou assassin.

The ancestor of the Taiyuan Wang clan is the famous general Wang Jian of the Qin State, and since then, the times have been prosperous and prosperous, and it has gone through more than 400 years. He has connections all over the Han Dynasty and is one of the top families of our time.

It can be said that the Yin Pavilion is the world of the Wang family, and other counties, whether it is the government or the merchants, have the connections and interests of the Wang family.

Of course, in addition to the Wang family, there are other small families, and together with the Wang family, they share the power and commercial interests of Yanmen County. ”

"Hear it, it's not small, the times have been prosperous and prosperous for hundreds of years. Everybody talks, what are we going to do? Ye Teng said.

There was silence at the scene, and no one spoke for a long time.

"Lord, you have the holy decree in your hand and are going to Yanmen County to take up your post in a dignified manner, do they still dare to resist the decree?" Zhao Qing asked.

Ye Teng didn't speak, just shook his head. Others are thoughtful, but they really can't find the best of both worlds.

Wan Hao stood up, raised his voice and said: "Lord, we are grabbing meat from other people's mouths to eat, and people are so big, they will definitely not be soft." It's really not good, just use force, arrest them all, send them to Tianma City, and then kill or chop them, it depends on their attitude. ”

Ye Teng said with a smile: "It's also a method, but the county officials, county officials, county lieutenants, etc. are also officials of the imperial court, so we arrested them like this, not only did we not give a good account to the imperial court, but also offended the Wang family to death, from now on, I am afraid that we will not be able to live in peace." ”

"If the name is not right, it is not good, it is better to collect the evidence of these people's crimes, and then dismiss them, so that at least they can be explained by the court." Lin Feng was thoughtful.

"But it's too long, I'm afraid of long nights and dreams!" Cai Hui expressed a different opinion.

Ye Teng saw that this was not a solution, so he smiled and said to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, since you are the governor of Yanmen County, the future Yanmen County is not so much in charge of me, but under your rule, you know, I have a lot of things, and I may not be able to stay in Yanmen County often." Let's talk about your high opinions. ”

Chen Gong got up and saluted Ye Teng and said:

"Lord, I can't talk about it, but I just listened to the golden and jade words of your robes, and I think it is a good strategy to put it all together.

First of all, the territory army was exhausted, and at the same time stationed in the twelve cities, taking over the defense of all cities, controlling all civilian officials, and imposing martial law.

Then a notice was posted to inform the people to file a complaint within a time limit, and if there was any grievance over the years, we were ordered to avenge him, and if he did not sue in the past few days, he should not sue again in the future.

In the next few days, we made every effort to collect human and physical evidence, and handled all the cases as ironclad cases with clear facts and conclusive evidence.

At that time, if the circumstances are serious, they can be severely punished on the spot, and those who are light can be dismissed or expelled, and then reported to the court as soon as possible. In this way, at least in the short term, the enemy will have no excuse to brazenly deal with us. At our pace of development, the longer it drags on, the better it will naturally be for us. ”

"Good! Just follow the policy of the public station! From tomorrow, Jiang Qin will be responsible for the defense of the territory, and Lin Feng will be responsible for the administration of the territory; Cai Hui served as the governor of Yanmen County, and Xie Gengxin, Zhang Liao, Zhou Tai, Wan Hao, and Xu Xian temporarily served as county lieutenants in Mayi, Pingcheng, Qiangyin, Loufu, Guangwu and other counties. Cheng Xiao, Zhao Qing and other civil officials respectively served as the county seat of the above county seats. ”

Seeing that Wan Hao and the others wanted to stop talking, I am afraid that they were reluctant to serve as county lieutenants. Ye Teng continued:

"Except for Cai Hui and Chen Gong, everyone else's county lieutenants and county officials are temporarily acting. Especially for the position of county lieutenant, Tianma City will have to fight in the south and north in the future, and it is impossible for all the generals and civil officials to go out of Yanmen County.

However, I have said in advance that during this period of time in Yanmen County, everyone must be conscientious, and if there is a rule of dereliction of duty, they will be severely punished!

Next, I will talk about the distribution of troops, the county governance is led by Cai Hui to take over the defense of 3,000 Beiwei troops and 10,000 ordinary troops, and the other counties are led by county lieutenants to take over 1,000 Qi family troops, 1,000 Han army iron cavalry, and 10,000 ordinary troops.

All the seals of the prefectural orders are temporarily kept by the county governors.

Please keep in mind that the first time you enter each county seat, surround the county government, control all civilian officials, and then issue a martial law order on the city lord's stone tablet, leave a certain number of troops to be handed over to the county commander, and immediately command all other forces to take over the military camp and the county defense, control the original officers and soldiers, let the soldiers report, expose, and collect evidence.

The county officials used the soldiers in their hands to control the civilian officials, issue announcements to reassure the people and complain, and collect evidence that the officials were evil, so as to maintain the normal operation of the county seat.

Whether the county officer collects news and evidence that military personnel are evil, or the county lieutenant collects news and evidence that civilian officials are evil, they must be handed over to the other party for processing!

Now, everyone will go down to collect the army, gather the personnel, and prepare the supplies according to the list just mentioned! Is it all clear?"

"No!" Everyone slowly exited the chamber and dispersed.
