In Zhou Bai's view, a small group that has long lost the ability to make weapons and has no transcendentals, it is too incompetent for the government to compromise with it.

Of course, this may also be that after the heyday of Daxu's national power, the bloated and corrupt local government institutions did not want to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to eliminate a group of remnants.

Judging from the current situation, if we want to completely eliminate the existence of the remnants, we must definitely need the support of the state, at least mobilize a regular army of more than 10,000 people, and prepare sufficient logistics to fight a protracted war.

However, for Zhou Bai, for the Anbei Governorate, which is full of mobilization and cohesion, it is not difficult to solve the problem of unrest among the remnants.

On the night of 11 May, a nearly forgotten army, 2,000 men from the mountain battalion responsible for guarding along the Cangshan Mountains, was urgently transferred to the Ningqiu Mountains, and at the same time 3,000 young and strong mountain people were recruited to accompany them.

From 12 May to 15 May, the militia of the three counties in the north of the county was stationed in the south of the county to assist in the establishment of the militia system.

At the same time, in addition to Ningqiu, a total of 5,000 garrison troops were dispatched to Ningqiu to support.

On 16 May, Fu Xuan tried in vain to use military superiority to confront the garrison of the Governor's Mansion, and a major battle broke out between the two sides outside Ningqiu City.

But the armor rate is less than half of it, and many people are still holding bamboo guns and stone spears, how to fight against the soldiers of the Governor's Mansion who have just experienced a big war.

In the army, the large number of people is not always an advantage, and in the face of the 5,000 garrison army that has been formed into a complete array, they are like pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, harvesting in batches.

And in order to ensure a thunderous blow and establish the absolute prestige of the Governor's Mansion in Bei'an County, Zhou Bai also sent Gao Hu and a thousand cavalry over.

Flesh and blood were flying, bleeding and drifting, and 30,000 people were defeated head-on, and the battlefield was miserable.

No matter how brave you are, you can't break through the indestructible military formation, no matter how fierce you are, you are not afraid of death, and you are also afraid of the sharp and ruthless butcher's knife.

When a group of people who really have the will to restore the country die, the recovery will collapse, and these remnants who are fleeing with fear instinctively flee to the "safe" mountains and forests.

I still remember that the ancestors were also killed by the Daxu official army, but as long as they fled into the mountains, they could still survive.

They also wanted to learn from their ancestors and flee into the surrounding mountains and forests to avoid the catastrophe of extermination.

But things turned out unexpectedly, and they were greeted not by the left-behind tribesmen, but by the mountain camps that were more adapted to life in the mountains than they were.

What are the mountains and forests in Ningqiu, the high mountains and mountains such as Cangshan, and the mountain camps are also flat.

Most of the nests and camps of the remnants in the mountains have been destroyed, and smoke is everywhere.

Since the main targets of the mountain battalion were groups of soldiers with weapons and armor, more and more people laid down their weapons and were willing to be harmless obedient people under the continuous pursuit and killing.

Zhou Bai believed that to deal with the remnants, unless there was a complete massacre, it was necessary to find a way to bring them under the rule in the end.

The stick has been released, the majesty of the Governor's Mansion has been established, and the next step is to give grace and give the remnants a way to live.

Dozens of official documents stamped with the seal of the Governor's Mansion began to circulate in the mountains and forests of Ningqiu.

Those who surrender within half a month will be registered by the Governor's Office, and will be given the same treatment as the Xia people and enjoy legitimate rights and interests.

The remnants of the people who went down the mountain collected the soldiers' armor, allocated basic acres of land, and allowed them to reclaim wasteland......

Generally speaking, the current policy is still relatively hard, giving you a way to live, but you must organize the people and protect the armor.

After some water grinding and adjustment, the development of such a large place in Ningqiu County is too limited.

Subsequently, after Zhou Bai communicated with several mountain leaders in Cangshan, he decided to leave the mountain camp and the three thousand mountain people in Ningqiu Tuntian for the time being.

Cangshan, as the foundation, is heavily guarded, and the mountain battalion is rarely useful, so it is better to shine in Ningqiu, so it will not lose its combat effectiveness.

At this point, the land of one county and seven counties can be regarded as completely unified.

After so many days, the post-war pension and reward work was also clarified, and at the same time as the army was reorganized, Zhou Bai held the first "county dynasty".

The name of the county dynasty comes from the "parallel system of the county and the state" from the ancient to the medieval dynasties, and in the past, a county was equivalent to a country, and many royal families

The pro-will be divided into feuds and have a fief of a county.

The county lords will be like the emperor, holding a small court meeting in their country, and the county officials will also go to the court to pay homage in accordance with the court etiquette, so it is called the county court.

Since it is a country, no matter how small it is, it still has a basic state system, and its political system is basically the same as that of the central court.

Except for the "Three Princes", who were appointed by the imperial court, other officials at all levels were appointed by the lord himself, and the county lord also had certain military power, financial power, and governing power.

Later, because with the exposure of the defects of the "parallel system of counties and states", and the unspoken rule of "opening up outward", there were few orthodox dynasties that practiced this system again.

However, the influence of the county was far-reaching, and at the end of many dynasties, the basic threshold for being recognized as a party was to divide a county.

This is also why, in today's Daxu world, many county guards are already listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement.

Ambition doesn't come from the beginning, loyalty doesn't always exist, and as the overall environment changes, the general trend will push you to change.

Ruinan County guards Yan Luo, Xiangxing 23 years with the same Jinshi, at that time Emperor Xiangxing was in the prime of life, the world is still singing and dancing, and any contradiction can be forcibly suppressed by the imperial court.

You said that Yan Luo at that time, was he not loyal to the court and unwilling to be a loyal minister?

Even in recent years, he may not have had such a thought.

But once the situation changes, the tide of the world is ups and downs.

Yan Luo saw that the grassroots bandits could also support the army and gain self-respect, and he was unwilling to obtain the imperial court's temperance and seal.

So, after Lei Haomiao poured out the military strength of Dingzhou to annihilate the foreign generals, Yan Luo presented himself as the envoy of Ruinan County.

And in order to coerce the imperial court, he reached an agreement with the major forces in the county in a short period of time to complete the unification of Ruinan County.

The imperial court did not dare to really force Yan Luo, so although it did not admit Yan Luo's self-expression, it did not have the strength to suppress it.

just issued an order to the governor Lei Haomiao to deal with it, urging Yan Luo to keep the minister's festival.

As the five-grade county guard of the imperial court, the court has not yet taken the means of killing.

That Zhou Bai showed strong force, captured Bei'an County, and established the Northern Governor's Mansion of An, how could he be denounced as a thief by the imperial court.

After all, it is only a governor's mansion, and it has not yet been called a king and an emperor, nor has it established a country.

Of course, within the Governor's Office, it was the system of the county state.

The Anbei Governor's Mansion, the main hall of the former county government, was held in the first county court.

The civil and military officials were divided into two classes, and Shi Chenzhongbang, the governor of the governor's office, stood at the forefront.

After three melodious bells rang, Zhou Bai strode out of the back hall wearing a dress with a painted fish dragon python pattern.

"Open the court, and the ministers bow down." Chen Zhongbang shouted loudly and took the lead in kneeling.

"Ministers, see the Governor." The civil and military officials followed Chen Zhongbang closely and bowed.

Zhou Bai has always disliked the redundancy of etiquette, but many regulations need to be maintained, just like this county dynasty, there is no need for him to forcibly change.

There are only twenty or thirty people who are qualified to enter this main hall, but the sound of worship is shaking the beams of the roof, which is the highest status and luck in the county.

As far as the eye can see, the clouds and fog gather, and their luck converges and collides, forming a small sea of clouds, rippling in this hall.

Then a gleam flashed in Zhou Bai's eyes, and the Wangqi technique was launched with all his might, and the natal lives of these more than thirty officials were displayed in front of his eyes.

If it is known by the heavenly court, Zhou Bai has such great power, he can observe people's lives, or the group, he will inevitably follow the laws of heaven and punish him severely.

Above the heads of the ministers, a fundamental life swayed up, piercing through the clouds gathered by foreign transport.

Compared with Pingcang Kaifu, the yellow life is still scarce and proudly independent, but the red life is Dasheng, red and red, like a red glow.

It was not the disappearance of the original white-red and pure white lives, but that they followed Zhou Bai to endure the test and got the opportunity to transform their lives.

For example, Zhou Rui's life is just red and white, and now it is a pure red life out of the county.

Zhou Bai was more satisfied with the luck scene in the hall, and it was these people who defended the foundation of his system.

Just sitting here, he could clearly feel that his luck as a master was constantly increasing, and his luck was also supporting the courtiers below.

The fortunes of the lord and the ministers converged and supported, and only then did this small system continue to expand, and finally became a national system.

After only a few moments of luck, Zhou Bai bowed his head slightly, and stretched out his hand to help: "Ministers, please get up."

"Tsedudo!"

After the civil and military officials stood up again, Chen Zhongbang was signaled, walked up two steps, and lived on the side of Zhou Bai, facing the hundred officials.

This is the authority given to him by Zhou Bai, and at this moment, many people have regarded him as the minister of state.

"On the order of the Governor, to preside over this meeting of the Governor's Palace, the first thing is to report on the relevant situation in the battle to unify the whole county."

"In this battle, 326 people were killed in the battle of the Demon Army, 1,133 people were killed in the garrison army and mountain battalion, and 378 people were killed in the militia auxiliaries and seriously wounded......

The loss of battle losses alone was close to 1,800, and the hearts of everyone present trembled when they heard this casualty figure.

How could there have been such casualties since the self-raised army, you must know that in the battle against the foreign demons, the demon army only killed 244 people.

Especially the civilian officials, they did not accompany the army, they all heard about the victory on the front line every day in Pingcang, but how did they know the cruelty of war.

The two big battles before and after that night, but the swords were bloody, and there was never a retreat in hand-to-hand combat.

The number of dead in the battle did not exceed 2,000, which actually made Zhou Bai feel a little better, because he knew that this was the cruelty of the Dragon War.

The only thing he can do is to ensure that the interests of these loyal warriors are protected after death.

"At present, all pensions have been paid in a timely manner, and the families of the martyrs have been registered and sent to the counties for filing and enjoying the relevant rights and interests...... Disabled soldiers who cannot continue to stay in the army are sorting out their whereabouts according to their personal wishes, so as to ensure that the whole army has no worries."

"Those who participated in this battle will be given an additional military salary for one month, and an average of five acres of land will be granted per capita, and an additional ...... will be awarded according to the merits of the war."

Hearing such a decent and thoughtful arrangement and reward, the strong men in the military generals column had a much lighter expression visible to the naked eye.

If they didn't have these, after the dynasty dispersed, how could they still have the face to go back and lead the troops, and how could they have the face to boast in front of the soldiers every day how good their allegiance to the governor was.

"If there are no objections, proceed to the second agenda."

"The second thing is to follow the will of the Governor, clarify the system of the Governor's Office, and clarify the character and responsibilities of your officials."

As soon as these words came out, no matter who the civil and military officials were, they all pricked up their ears and stared at the other volume of lists that Chen Zhongbang took out.

Zhou Bai spoke first at this time: "Chen Zhongbang obeyed the order, and now named you the governor of the Anbei Metropolitan Governor's Office, plus the cabinet to participate in politics, the chief judge of government affairs, and the rank is six grades."

As the first confidant under Zhou Bai, Chen Zhongbang naturally knew about the official position he had gotten, but he still thanked him with great gratitude and respect.

"Minister, thank you."

"Please continue to read it."

The process is indispensable, and after Zhou Bai conferred the official title on Chen Zhongbang, he could justifiably read out the next content.

"The original six rooms in the center of the Fu Demon General's Mansion have now been upgraded to the six divisions of the Anbei Governor's Mansion, which are the six divisions of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, all of which are from the Liupin Yamen."

Of course, the officials of the Sixth Division are happy, they are considered to be promoted as a whole, and the status they have been promoted and the money they have obtained are one thing, and the more important thing is that they can only be regarded as real central members so far.

In the past, the Demon General's Mansion was even only in charge of the first line at the beginning, and I couldn't find the difference between the place and the center.

The master of the ceremonial division, Zhou Bai's second uncle, Zhou Lin, is now a little abrupt.

He never even dreamed that he would be able to become a big official from the sixth grade one day.

But after Zhou Lin officially accepted the appointment, for some reason, he was a little depressed.

It wasn't until Zhou Bai, the nephew, looked at him that Zhou Lin felt more comfortable.

In Zhou Bai's eyes, Zhou Lin's natal life was a little unbearable under the weight of the sixth-grade qi luck, and he felt a little struggling

。

"The red natal and assuming the position of the sixth rank is obviously a bit out of line, but fortunately, it is a blood relative, and it is a more noble yamen like the rite priest." Zhou Bai quickly came up with an answer in his heart.

A wave of luck gushing out of the dark supported Zhou Lin's natal uprightness, and he could barely bear this position.

And as long as you can sit in the position of the master of the ceremonies for a longer time, your life will also be nourished and upgraded.

This is the benefit of "cronyism" of the hidden dragon.

「…… After the list of the chief officers and deputy chief officials of each department has been read, please list the seven county orders in turn and accept the edict of the governor."

Overall, compared to the list of six rooms in the Demon General's Mansion, there is not much increase or decrease.

Next is Qi Hua and other seven people, who in turn accepted Zhou Bai's personal appointment and awarded the county order seal.

This is the respect that the seven county commanders deserve, Baili Hou, the chief official of a county, it is not too much to attach importance to it.

"You waited for the Qing of Banggi, announced Dehua, pacified the Qi people, advised the Nongsang, and taught the Five Teachings...... and know the afflictions of the people."

During this time, Qi Hua had fully agreed with Zhou Bai's governance philosophy, so he not only removed his original title of inspector, but also transferred to Pingcang County.

Zhou Bai has also known the county orders of the other six counties, except for the original Pingcang County, the current Yangyuan County County Commander Dong Yi is a person, and the rest are all Tongjinshi.

None of them stayed in the county, and the word inspection was added, but if you want to ask them if they are convinced, they must be convinced.

Bei'an County, that is hard power, can you not accept it.

But more importantly, they have confidence in Zhou Bai, and they have confidence in themselves and the future of the Governor's Mansion.
