After Liu Jian surrendered to the Black Mountain Army, his strength reached its peak.

The local assassin history and Zhu Taishou both admired and feared Liu Jian.

It's not that Liu Jianjun is too strong, but he issued a rectification policy on officials in Bingzhou.

Because the annexed states belonged to the border and were in contact with foreign races, Liu Jian, the general of Fuyuan, had the right to evaluate all the officials of the annexed prefectures to ensure that he could confirm that these officials were indeed suitable for governing the annexed prefectures.

Only if all the officials can indeed pass Liu Jian's assessment will he let these officials continue to stay in office.

Liu Jian's original intention of formulating the assessment policy was indeed for the sake of merging the state.

The officials of the states and counties of the Han Dynasty did not attach great importance to the people's livelihood, and it can even be said that most of them were for the selfish interests of the family.

Especially in a border county like Bingzhou, Liu Jian, the official here, really knows too well, because he grew up in a border county.

In order to obtain sufficient resources and benefits, local officials colluded with local clans to absorb resources and oppress the people at the bottom.

Under the rule of any dynasty, there will be corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and there is no way to do it.

No matter how wise Liu Jian is, it is the same.

But everything needs a bottom line.

At least, we can't let the officials make the low-level people unable to live a normal life! caused huge social unrest, which Liu Jian resolutely did not allow.

When Liu Jian was in Jizhou, he had already set up the Third Department of Discipline Inspection, and the administrative assessment and supervision of local officials had reached an unprecedented height.

Now, he's going to move all of this system to the state.

Of course, there is another main reason why it is necessary to properly rectify and merge state officialdom.

Liu Jian first occupied the annexation of the state, he did not know for the time being whether these officials were really obedient to him, and after some official rectification, he was able to make these officials realize who they should listen to in the future.

In order to grasp the annexation of the state, the first thing is to firmly control these officials, let them recognize themselves as their masters, and sincerely serve themselves.

Of course, in addition to rectifying the officialdom of the state, the Taishou of the main regions and the assassination history of the counties in charge, Liu Jian also had to replace his confidants.

Liu Jian's subordinates are full of talents, and it is not difficult to elect henchmen who can govern the state and county.

The key is the person who co-ordinates.

Jizhou is responsible for supervising all the assassins of Taishou, and there must be a suitable person.

After some careful consideration, Liu Jian thought of someone.

On this day, Liu Jian found Guo Jia in front of him.

"The lord wants me to be the assassin of the state?"

After hearing Liu Jian's intention to find himself, Guo Jia, who is known for his calmness on weekdays, couldn't help but be surprised.

"Exactly, don't you want to be this assassin?"

Guo Jia seemed to hesitate a little when he heard these words.

"Guo Mou got the teachings of the lord in the past, and decided to follow the lord to learn all things in order to become a talent, but now that he has not completed his studies, the lord asked me to serve as the assassin of a state, is it a bit too hasty? Guo also thinks that he does not have this ability. ”

Liu Jian shook his head: "Fengxiao, this is wrong!" Learn...... There's no better way to do that than to practice. ”

"Actually, you have been with me for so long, and you have listened to me so much, with your intelligence, you must have an understanding of my strategy in Hebei and how to develop and merge the state."

"But it's useless to just listen to me...... You must personally serve as the history of the assassin, do a good job of overall planning, and exercise your ability through practice. ”

"Just like Wen Ruo, Wen Ruo is not omnipotent from the beginning, but he has very great potential, he dares and is willing to take over Youzhou to deal with foreign and internal affairs, this kind of heavy responsibility that is difficult for others to shoulder, Wen Ruo does not shirk."

"Today's Bingzhou, like Youzhou in the past, is a place where everything is in ruins and needs capable people to coordinate governance."

"But I can also tell you that Bingzhou is still a place with a lot of potential."

"The minerals contained in Bingzhou far exceed the two major mines I have opened up in Youzhou."

"However, it will merge the mining and mining of the state, and reach a distribution of benefits with the local high-ranking wealthy families, and at the same time dispose of the displaced people of the Baibo Army and the Montenegrin Army, establish a new household registration system in the state, and greatly develop the Tuntian water conservancy to deal with the Xiongnu and Xianbei...... None of this is easy. ”

"You have Xun Wenruo's successful example in front of you, you have to aim for him and reach his level, which is a lot of pressure."

"Of course, if you think you can't do it yourself, I will never make it difficult for others."

Hearing Liu Jian say this, Guo Jia's heart couldn't help but feel excited.

Yes, what Liu Jian is now facing him is a difficult task.

To achieve this task, it is by no means an overnight effort, and even a difficult step.

But as Liu Jian said, once Guo Jia governs the state and Youzhou, it proves that his ability in all aspects has grown tremendously, and he is enough to be independent.

This place in Bingzhou is a backward area in the Han Dynasty, with the Xiongnu in the territory and the Xianbei in the north.

It is also a relatively poor place, and the people are strong.

Of course, if Guo Jia alone relied on himself, it would still be very difficult to achieve Liu Jian's goal.

Even if he has the ability, he doesn't have the resources in his hands, which is a difficult thing.

But with Liu Jian supporting him in the rear, this matter is different.

He just had to let go of his arms and do it.

"Jia Ling."

……

……

So, in Bingzhou, Liu Jian followed the original governance plan in Youzhou and asked Guo Jia to stay in Bingzhou to coordinate the overall situation for him.

Xun Yu is in Youzhou, and Guo Jia is in Bingzhou.

However, compared with when Xun Yu was just asked to govern Youzhou, it is actually easier to let Guo Jia govern and merge the state now than it was to rectify Youzhou back then.

Because the economic strength and military strength that Hebei now has cannot be compared with when Xun Yu first arrived in Youzhou.

Especially in recent years, Hebei Group has accumulated a lot of governance experience that can be used for reference.

As a result, the work of rectifying and merging the state began to be in full swing.

The first is to clean up the incompetent officials, replace those officials who are unpopular, who fill their pockets too much, and who are too oppressive to the local people, and replace them with Liu Jian's henchmen.

In order to allow the officials to better serve the entire Han Dynasty, Liu Jian had already formulated a set of performance appraisal methods for the management of the whole Hebei when he was in Jizhou.

This set of assessment methods includes some incentive policies and punishment measures for public officials in later generations, as well as some welfare benefits and management methods, of course, they cannot be copied in full, but also refer to the national conditions of the Han Dynasty to carry out overall integration and modification.

In order to maintain the rule of the state, the three states of Hebei began to transfuse blood to the state.

At the same time, the foreign tribes in the north, which were now under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, also provided cattle, sheep and horses to the state according to their own conditions, so as to develop the local animal husbandry of the state.

In terms of Tuntian, because of the experience of Jizhou, Youzhou, and Qingzhou, the merger of the states was relatively smooth, and the submission of the Black Mountain Army and the White Bo Army provided Liu Jian with a large number of people.

These populations will all be settled in the state.

Don't look at the Black Mountain Army and the White Bo Army providing Liu Jian with millions of people, but the land in the land of the state has been abandoned for too long, and there are really too many barren fields here, because of the war in the border counties, or because the population is hidden, or because the local population of the state is not much...... In short, the land is indeed desolate.

So people can be placed under it.

But in fact, although the local population of Bingzhou is very small, Liu Jian knows that it will never be as small as it appears on the books.

There are too many hidden populations of local noble families, and there are too many black households who have been hidden because of the war.

In order to dig deep into these hidden populations, Liu Jian has set up some settlement and livelihood policies.

That is, the complete abolition of oral calculations and the counting of household registration, and at the same time the measurement of land, and vigorously encourage the people to have children.

The number of children born by the government is routinely subsidized by the government every year according to the number of fetuses, and various post-birth placement treatments are also given, which is a good policy set up by Liu Jian as early as Jizhou and Qingzhou, and the effect has been remarkable over the years.

This not only found out a large number of black households, but also led to a significant increase in the birth rate in Hebei.

Of course, in order to prevent those powerful families from using their own secret population to settle down casually and defraud the government office of financial support, Liu Jian also gave a strict review policy to this hidden household and black household settlement system.

And once they are registered, these former hermits will be closely controlled and monitored by the government, and at the same time, they will be designated to live, and the government will allocate arable land for them, so that they can have a new place to live, completely out of the control of the original noble families.

There is no doubt that the Hebei Commerce and Trade Association will also continue to accompany Liu Jian to settle in Bingzhou, and absorb the local Hanmen forces to balance the overly powerful Wang clans in Bingzhou.

Bingzhou is also a relatively special existence in the Han Dynasty, because it has always been on the edge of the earth, and connects the Qiang people and the Xianbei residences, so the local Haoqiang Wang clan is more perverse than the Wang clan in Middle-earth.

For the Taishou who have been appointed to the counties of the state over the years, the local nobles and heroes of the state have never given them a good face, and they have never been convinced.

Although Liu Jian is famous all over the world, if he forcibly changes the original rules of the state so much, the local noble family will not tolerate it.

As a result, many people began to secretly take the lead in making trouble and boycotting the policies of the government office.

Of course, Liu Jian will not show mercy to these people.

The rules are made by men, so why can't your rules be changed?

Of course, it is a bit unrealistic to let Liu Jian kill all these people at once, after all, local construction also needs their follow-up support, but it is still necessary to catch a few typical ones and clean them up ruthlessly, and make an example of chickens and monkeys.

I have to let these guys who don't know the depths know that from now on, who should have the final say in the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty!

Your rules that cannot be changed, I can change them at any time from now on.

There is only one rule here from now on, and that is my rule.

And among these families, the one who has the most trouble and the strongest power, and at the same time makes Liu Jian the most unpleasant, is the Taiyuan Wang family.

Since you want to kill chickens and monkeys, you naturally have to kill a few big ones!

This Taiyuan Wang's size is the most suitable, fat and thin.
