Chapter 208 Development

With the jade seal and the young emperor in hand, Cheng Yanluo raised troops on the right name, she discussed with people after the country name was Nanqi, the year name was changed to Taiping, and began to support the young emperor to ascend the throne, after the enthronement ceremony, to the outside Ming issued a holy edict.

After all, now that there is a jade seal, and the young emperor recognized by the Empress Dowager Cao, a fool is only a fool to fight blindly, and the place that can be recovered by the pen will naturally have to be reclaimed.

Cheng Yanluo asked Xie Yuning to draw up a few holy decrees and send them to the surrounding provinces.

At the same time as the holy decree was issued, Cheng Yanluo also asked his generals to lead their generals to practice around each province.

This was Qin Yi's idea, and he said that it was called carrots and sticks.

In the past few years, the development of Guangdong has been good, and Cheng Yanluo's soldiers are wide, and the surrounding provinces have been taught, so after the holy decree was issued and the soldiers and horses were besieged, most of the generals in those prefects, counties, and places expressed their submission.

And some who were unwilling to submit, Cheng Yanluo led the troops to the battle, and it didn't take long to take Gui Province, Xiang Province and other places around Yuefu.

In this way, it is equivalent to Cheng Yanluo and Qin Yi already have the territory of several provinces.

Qin Yi discussed with Xie Yuning, and then issued a holy decree to the entire Great Qi Ming, appointing himself as the prime minister of the Great Qi and Cheng Yanluo as the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, and commanding the military and political affairs of the Great Qi.

Cheng Yanluo took over all the places, broke up the original defenders, and inserted her own people in the middle, especially the middle-level generals, most of whom were people under her own hands, and the two of them spent half a year to straighten out all the military affairs in these places, and began to develop agricultural production and restore economic order.

Qin Yi means that he doesn't want to expand his territory for the time being, he wants to build roads, but also to engage in economic construction, he wants to develop steadily, take over a place, and let the people in a place be able to eat and clothe themselves.

Cheng Yanluo also felt that Qin Yi's idea was very right.

Moreover, she remembered that this war would be fought for many years, and the princes of the Central Plains were now fighting a fire, and they took the opportunity to start to win over the people to consolidate the defense.

With territory and status, Qin Yi can now be said to be right here, and he is even more relaxed.

He first took Luo Su to send the good seeds that had been saved in the past two years to various places.

These grains include hybrid rice seeds, corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes and other high-yielding grain seeds, as well as peppers, tomatoes and other vegetable seeds.

After that, Qin Yi asked those places to return to Shun to start building reservoirs, digging deep wells, and repairing flood drainage channels to prevent floods and droughts.

In addition, he also personally designed and led people to make waterwheels so that farmers could easily irrigate.

He has also made many improvements to farm tools, so that farmers can save time and effort in farming.

Qin Yi even took a few craftsmen to research what chemical fertilizers, and also got feed for breeding.

It's an agricultural thing.

In terms of transportation, he ordered all localities to start overhauling cement roads, and it is imperative that all provinces, provinces, prefectures, and counties have convenient transportation.

This is also Qin Yi's several years in Yuefu, he has accumulated a lot of experience, there is no shortage of money, and the construction is not too laborious.

There is also commerce and trade in various places, and he ordered people to do a lot of publicity, only saying that the trade of Southern Qi is prosperous, the politics is clear, and merchants from all over the country are welcome to come and go.

At this time, the entire Great Qi was full of wars, and there was no peaceful place at all, and the Southern Qi side was still more stable, so Qin Yi's propaganda attracted many rich people to settle down with their families.

In addition, Qin Yi also sent people to various places to bring refugees to settle in Nanqi, and after these people came, they distributed land and grain seeds, and taught them to farm and breed, so that their lives could be stabilized.

And these people who settled down saw that life was good on the side of Nanqi, so they began to bring letters to their relatives and friends, asking them to come to Nanqi as well.

In less than a year, the entire Southern Qi Dynasty was thriving, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

Qin Yi intended to stabilize politics, but Cheng Yanluo set out to improve the status of soldiers, and the soldiers in the army were high and well treated, which was also something that the entire Southern Qi knew about, and naturally, there were many people who wanted to be soldiers.

After all, there are disputes in various places now, and the people also know that a big war is inevitable, and this is the time to earn military merits.

When Cheng Yanluo was conscripting, he also used people to publicize the spirit of martial arts to the people, talked about how cruel the days outside were, and told the people to defend their homeland, and that the current life is so good that it must not be taken away, so everyone must take up arms and have the strength to defend their homes and the country.

Qin Yi thought of the militia in modern times, and he discussed with Cheng Yanluo and began to use this method.

Cheng Yanluo began to order people to organize people everywhere to farm when they were busy with agriculture and military training when they were free.

Naturally, during this period, there were also princes from all over the country who wanted to crusade against the Southern Qi, but they sent troops to the border of the Southern Qi, and they were beaten by the guarding Southern Qi army.

Cheng Yanluo is strict in governing the army, and the soldiers under her command dare not harass the people no matter where they go, and even the relationship with the people is very good.

And Qin Yi's propaganda work is in place.

He specially organized a propaganda team, and wherever the army went, the propaganda team followed the people everywhere to publicize the situation of the army and the people, and vigorously brainwashed the people.

Of course, the army also needs to be brainwashed, and all the three major disciplines and eight doctrines and so on have been taken out.

These were taken out, and Qin Yi naturally didn't want to take out some more things.

He called Xie Yuning and Song Qi to his home to discuss the need to carry out ideological education for the people in various prefectures and localities.

When the three of them were discussing, Cheng Yanluo happened to have something to look for Qin Yi, and she heard Qin Yi's voice when she stood outside the door.

"Now that there is endless turmoil outside, we in Nanqi will inevitably require stability, in addition, we also require the people everywhere to be oriented to us, each to do a good job of ideological work for the people, and also ask Mr. Song to take people to compile some books, and then find literate people to go to the countryside to read to the people, and also, I want to open schools in various places, and the students in the schools also require them to take ideological classes first, so that these people can be loyal to Daqi in their hearts, and do the same heart."

Qin Yi's voice was a little hoarse, he was very busy these days, adjusting everywhere, taking ideas everywhere, and the whole person lost a lot of weight.

"Okay, what Qin Xiang said is that it should be like this."

Song Qi got up and bent over.

Xie Yuning said with a smile: "Qin Xiang's idea is really good, in this way, when we fight in the future, not to mention those soldiers, even the people are our help." ”

Cheng Yanluo knocked on the door and entered.

She smiled at Song Qi and Xie Yuning, and said to Qin Yi: "When publicizing, we should let the people only know Qin Xiang, but not the young emperor." ”

Xie Yuning got up and saluted Cheng Yanluo: "What Marshal Cheng said is extreme, in the future, Qin Xiang is afraid that he will replace the young emperor, and now, we should prepare earlier." ”

Song Qi got up and said with a smile: "So it's decided, I still have something to do, so I'll retire first." ”

Xie Yuning also withdrew with his hand.
