254 Yan Revolution
Qin Xiaobai and the leaders of the Zhoushui Alliance discussed secretly all night and planned a relatively complete outline of Yan State's governance.
At half past four in the morning of the next day, Qin Xiaobai entered the palace to participate in the palace court meeting and saw a group of NPC civil and military ministers waiting in the side hall. The king had not yet come to the temple, and the ministers were waiting in the side hall.
Seeing Qin Xiaobai coming, Da Situ Guo Kui hurriedly pulled Qin Xiaobai to the side and said, "Lord Xiaobai, how is the outline formulated?" ”
Qin Xiaobai took out a volume, handed it to Guo Kui, and said with a smile: "Lord Guo, the political reform of Yan Guo that I planned is all included in it, as well as various suggestions. But which aspects are suitable and which are not, and the priorities of which are still up to you. ”
Guo Kui hurriedly took it, read it quickly, and was shocked when he saw it. It is very good that the county system policy, land policy, and fiscal policy are good, but any policy reform will touch the interests of the nobles and chiefs of the NPCs in the walled cities and lead to local turmoil, not a joke.
He looked at Qin Xiaobai in surprise and muttered, "Lord Xiaobai, these are not easy to touch!" The king had just ascended the throne and was eager to do something to stabilize his power and settle the controversy against him. However, if these policies are introduced, they may not only fail to have the effect of consolidating the regime, but will bring disaster. Not to mention the locality, even the ministers of civil and military affairs of the imperial court may not agree to such a comprehensive change. Qin Xiaobai arched his hand and said: "What the Lord said is exact, so I suggest that Lord Guo carefully consider these suggestions, weigh the interests of all parties, and not rush to implement these policies." However, in order to make Yan Guo rich and strong, I think that these policies must be implemented, but the order of implementation is very important. I think that you should not be in a hurry to let the ministers know about this political reform outline, but let the king see it. We can start with an economic reform outline. Try to avoid dispatching the interests of the great nobles and chieftains in various places. ”
Guo Kui said: "Oh, let the old man take a look at your economic strategy." ”
Qin Xiaobai handed another volume to Guo Kui to read.
Guo Kui read this economic file and was obviously much more satisfied. The economic program involves the reform of transportation, agriculture and animal husbandry, handicrafts, and heavy industry. Vigorously display the four major industries of Yanguo. These four industries are very beneficial to the entire Yan country and the walled cities in all parts of the Yan country, with great impetus and little resistance.
Qin Xiaobai saw that Guo Kui was satisfied with this economic outline, and immediately explained: "We first need to open up the main roads of the whole Yan country, so that our chariot army and cavalry can easily reach any place in the territory, so as to prevent local secession and reduce consumption on the road." Promote the prosperity of trade and commerce. At the same time increase taxes on the treasury and the basement. This step, both nationally and locally, can be of great benefit.
The second is agriculture and animal husbandry, promoting the popularization of farmland irrigation and cattle farming, greatly increasing grain production, increasing grain stocks, and ensuring that there will be no famine and turmoil in Yanguo. This step. It can also bring huge benefits to both the national and local governments.
Then there is the handicraft industry, which promotes the prosperity of workshops such as agricultural tools, woodware, ceramics, silk, salt, paper, herbs, etc., throughout the country, and enriches the people and the country. This step is mainly to increase the financial resources of the state, local and national people, so that everyone can benefit.
Finally, heavy industry. Establishment of Yangang Group. Unified production of national steel in Yanguo. This step is mainly to strengthen the local power of the state and weaken the power of the local government. The kings and court ministers should approve of this, but the local chiefs may not. The most resistance to this economic plan should be heavy industry. What does Master Guo think? ”
Guo Kui nodded and praised: "These four aspects of policy, the first three old men know, are the top priority in the revitalization of Yan Kingdom, but what are the steel you are talking about, Xiaobai?" ”
"Ugh"
Qin Xiaobai almost crashed. Secretly confused. Although Old Man Guo is said to be the top intelligent NPC. However, steel has not appeared in large quantities in the game, and Old Man Guo has never seen steel. Naturally, there is no way to know what steel is.
"Steel, uh, it's a harder, more durable, better ground stuff than bronze. If you still don't understand, Master Guo, you can just think of it as a better bronze. ”
Guo Kui suddenly realized, nodded his beard and said, "I see, steel is bronze!" Bronze is a weapon of the country, and it should naturally be in the hands of the country, and the old man must support this economic strategy! ”
Qin Xiaobai immediately smiled and said, "Thank you Lord Guo for your support!" ”
successfully persuaded Guo Kui, Qin Xiaobai was already confident at this time. Da Situ and Da Sikong joined forces to implement an all-round economic policy, and after the king understood the benefits of the land, he would also vigorously support it, and no one in the Yan court could stop him.
Guo Kui and Qin Xiaobai returned to the crowd; At five o'clock in the morning, the ministers of Da Situ Guo Kui, Da Sima Leyi, and Da Sikong Qin Xiaobai entered the main hall in turn, sat on their respective seats, and King Yan arrived at the main hall in Luan and ascended to the throne. Hundreds of ministers of Yan Kingdom met with the king of Yan State.
The court proceedings officially began.
The vast majority of the hundreds of ministers of the Yan Kingdom advocated maintaining the old system left by the old Yan King without any changes, and they supported the system of the Yan Kingdom, the Baoyan faction, not the current king. This part of the people accounted for seventy or eighty people in the entire court ministers.
Some of them were ministers brought over by King Yan from Zhoushui, with Guo Kui as the leader, and firmly defended the king. The number of this faction is small, about a dozen people, who are the close ministers of King Yan, and the interests of King Yan are closely bound. Clearly support Yan Wang's new policy.
Some of them are newly recruited outstanding and capable ministers, with Le Yi as the staunch royalist. This faction is very small in number, with only a few members, but they are all NPC ministers with extremely high abilities. The entire army of 50,000 in the capital of Yan is now commanded by Le Yi and is responsible for the security of the national capital. Unconditionally support the current Yan Wang.
Only Qin Xiaobai is a player, and in a sense, Qin Xiaobai is also a staunch royalist.
Don't look at the player ministers, they are the least numerous, but they are also the most powerful faction in the court. At present, the 100,000 Zhou Shui soldiers who protect the capital of the Yan State and the palace are all the troops of the Zhou Shui Alliance, that is, Qin Xiaobai. Whose army is in whose hands, whose voice is loud. As long as he has the support of Qin Xiaobai and Le Yi, Ji Zhi does not have to worry about being ousted by other heirs to the Yan throne at least for the time being.
Today's court deliberations are mainly to discuss the new policy of King Yan.
The new officials took office three times, and the kings were all replaced, and of course the national policies of Yan State in all aspects should also be changed to realize the ambitions and ambitions of the new king. The formulation of the new national policy was supervised by the ministers of the three divisions, that is, the three minority factions in the court, involving three aspects: political, economic, and military.
The old man Guo Kui is in charge of politics, but he has not said a word about political reform, and shirks it: In terms of political reform, the old man still needs to consider it carefully, and there is no need to rush it. Old man Guo is not in a hurry, of course the rest of the old ministers are happy, they are even less anxious, it is best if they can not change. Only Yan Wang Ji is a little dissatisfied. Political reform is an important part, but Guo Kui avoided talking about it, which naturally disappointed Ji Zhi.
Le Yi was in charge of military reform, but he proposed to discuss economics and politics first, and then military reform. Once again, the ministers of Yan State were very satisfied, as long as it continued to delay, the new policy would become the old policy, and the reform would become the same, which would be in their best interest.
The last link that remains, and that is the New Economic Deal.
King Yan had great expectations.
Qin Xiaobai did not disappoint him, and proposed a new set of economic policy outlines for Yan State, including "transportation, agriculture and animal husbandry, handicrafts, and heavy industry" four major aspects as the center, to revitalize Yan State. The entire court discussion directly turned into a symposium to debate Qin Xiaobai's economic policy reform.
It is not accurate to say that Qin Xiaobai's economic plan is a new deal.
Take transportation as an example, all the walled cities in the Yan Kingdom have such a task - "repair the same XX walled city and get to the road between the XX walled city." ”。 That is, the task of building roads and improving traffic conditions has been there for a long time. But only part of the walled city has really completed this task, and more than half of the walled city has not been repaired. Moreover, the standards of the roads built in each walled city are different, some are 15 meters wide dirt roads, some are 10 meters wide paved stone roads, and some are only a few meters wide paths.
Qin Xiaobai's plan is to formulate the transportation tasks of the whole Yan Kingdom in a unified manner, and then each walled city will complete a part of it separately within a limited time. That is, the old road construction scheme has been improved, which greatly improves the efficiency and usefulness.
Repair a width of 20 meters, "from the southwesternmost Yellow River area of the Yan country, Muye, Chaoge, connect the main cities in the hinterland of the Yan country, Puyang, Handan, Pingyuan, Xindu, Tanggukou, arrive at the capital of the Yan country, Jicheng, through Zhoushui, Lingzhi, Lulong walled city, through the narrow corridor Qinhuangdao, Huludao, Jinzhou, into the northeast Liaoning Shenyang, Jilin Changchun, Heilongjiang Harbin, to the easternmost Fuyuan of Heilongjiang and the northernmost Mohe. ”
This main road line, together with the auxiliary road line, connects all the road lines of forty or fifty large, medium and small walled cities in the entire Yan Kingdom, saving a lot of transportation time.
Qin Xiaobai's transportation plan was unanimously approved by the king and the new and old ministers of the court.
Even those old ministers who insisted on their own views were extremely excited and agreed to the construction of the main road of Yan Country with such courage. Anyway, roads are to be built everywhere, and building a high-standard trunk road is of course much better than a road made by chaos.
