Wang Rong stayed in Pinyang for a few more days, inspecting the Second Army of Feng Yi County and the soldiers of Feng Yi County.

Pinyang is the place where the Wang family rises, Feng Yijun is the starting place of the Tang Dynasty, Feng Yijun's good families are brave and good at fighting, stationed in Feng Yijun, and are a fighting force in the Tang Dynasty.

Feng Yijun's soldiers are for the people when they enter, and soldiers when they come out, full of slaughter. Later, Wang Rong inspected the granary, inspected the water conservancy and other things.

Fortunately, as the seat of Feng Yi's county, the place where the Tang royal family rose, although it was somewhat confined to formality, it was finally politically clear. Otherwise, if there are people who sue against the "Yuan Wulu", then Wang Rong will kill people in Pinyang.

After some inspection, Wang Rong's royal car set off and went to Bingzhou. Today, Bingzhou has become the hinterland of the Tang Kingdom, and the Tang Dynasty has invested a lot here, and the lives of the people have gradually improved.

When passing through the Xihe County Governance Office and leaving the stone, Wang Rong specially went to the Jingguan outside the stone city to pay respects. This Jingguan was piled up by the soldiers of the Yong Dynasty who died in battle, and Li Mubai ordered that all the captured Yong Dynasty soldiers be killed, and together with the Yong Dynasty soldiers who died in battle, this Jingguan was built to deter the Yongguo.

After Wang Rong finished worshipping, he did not stay, continued to travel east, and soon came to Jinyang City, which had been renamed. Chongshun, the shepherd of the state, Hua Bufan, the governor of the state, and Lin Zongsui, the governor of the state, took the civil and military officials of the state and went out of the city to greet them.

Wang Chongshun took the lead and bowed down and said, "Minister, and the state pastor King Chongshun, meet the saint!"

Lin Zongsui followed and bowed and saluted, "Lin Zongsui, the last general and governor of the state, meet the Holy Lord!"

Hua Bufan took a step slower, and saluted: "Minister, and the state superintendent makes Hua Bufan, meet the saint!"

"Meet the Holy One!"

Hundreds of officials paid homage in unison, and Wang Rong walked out of the car, stood on it, and looked at them. I saw the generals shouting loudly, and the voices of the civil officials were relatively weak.

Wang Rong stepped out of the car and helped the three people led by him up one by one. He smiled and said, "I don't like this kind of battle the most, and you don't know it."

Wang Chongshun bowed his head and said: "The Holy Lord forgives sins, Jinyang is the first temporary capital of my Tang Dynasty, and the Holy Lord has been stationed here for many years, and the officials and people of Jinyang are ecstatic about the arrival of the Holy One. I can't stop it."

Wang Rong stretched out his finger and pointed at him, and said, "You, you, you shouldn't be a state pastor, it's too condescending, you should enter the palace as a little yellow gate, and say auspicious words to me in the palace every day."

Wang Chongshun listened, and immediately said aggrievedly: "The saint said that he laughed, I don't have eunuchs in the Tang Dynasty, besides, the minister will not say auspicious words, and when the time comes, the horse's fart will be patted on the horse's hooves, and the minister's head will not be protected, please forgive the saint."

Wang Rong waved his hand and said, "Oh, why are you so serious, it's a joke. Let's go, let's not get in the way at this gate, enter the city, let's go to the governor's mansion."

The accompanying guards, in addition to the Xiaojie guard, the personal guard division was directly stationed in the military camp outside Jinyang City. The size of the Xiaojiewei has been expanded from the capital to the battalion level, with 600 people. Wang Xu was also promoted from a hundred generals to a battalion general, and his salary increased, which made him very happy.

A group of hundreds of people walked through the main street of Jinyang, Wang Rong lifted the curtain on the window, looked at the crowd gathered on both sides of the street, and the rows of shops and restaurants on both sides of the street, and felt slightly satisfied.

Privileges are often for the sake of the ruling class and for convenience. For example, now, Wang Rong remembers that if it is usual, if you want to reach Jinyang County Ya from the south gate of Jinyang, you have to walk for three quarters of an hour.

Now it only takes two quarters of an hour to reach the Bingzhou Pastoral Mansion, which is further north than Jinyang County's Ya, from the south gate of Jinyang, Wang Rong is sighing at the power and energy, and at the same time, he is more vigilant about the complacency that is gradually germinating in his heart.

When he came to the Bingzhou Pastoral Mansion, Wang Rong was the first to enter the Bingzhou Muzheng Hall, and in addition to the three chief officials of the Bingzhou Prefecture, there was also Wu Xinghan, the commander of the Fifth Army, and Pei Congke, the commander of Jinyang County.

Wang Rong looked at the five people in front of him and said, "Wang Zhoumu, report on the current situation in Bingzhou."

Wang Chongshun glanced at Hua Bufan, Lin Zongsui and others on the side, and then stood up, but as soon as he stood up halfway, he was stopped by Wang Rong: "Don't stand, I look up at you, I'm tired, sit down and say."

。」

Wang Chongshun bowed his hand and said, "Then please forgive the Holy Lord's rudeness, the Holy Lord, and the situation of the state, you know. The mountains and rivers are high and long, and the land that can be cultivated is limited. In the past two years, the imperial court has been supporting the repair of the Chi Road so that the products of the state can be transported. The galloping road that has been built now is the two sections from Jinyang to Jingcheng and Jingcheng to Zhending."

Wang Rong listened to Wang Chongshun's words and asked, "What about the other two paragraphs?"

You must know that the territory of Bingzhou is vast, Shuofang County and Yanmen County in the north are important places for the defense of nomads such as the Qiangqi in the north of the Tang Kingdom, and Hedong and Hanoi counties in the south are the front line for the defense of the Yu State.

If the roads are impassable, then the march of the army and the supply of military supplies will face serious difficulties, which will directly affect the development of the war.

Wang Chongshun replied, "Holy Lord, most of the roads from Jinyang to Yanmen County and from Yanmen County to Shuofang County have been built, but it will take at least a year before they are completed."

Wang Rong stared at Wang Chongshun and said what he cared about: "What about the galloping road to Hedong and Hanoi?"

When Wang Chongshun heard this, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, he quickly got up, lay on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Holy Lord, the minister is guilty, and now the road leading to Hedong County and Hanoi County has only been built through Tianjing Pass."

Wang Rong listened to Wang Chongshun's words, and his heart suddenly became angry, and he slammed the teacup on the table, making a tom sound, which shocked Wang Chongshun. Chinese Net

I only heard Wang Rong say sharply: "Wang Zhoumu, are you ignorant? The road of Tianjing Pass has been built in all dynasties, and the most recent one was built in the time of Emperor Yongming. Do you still need to fix it? What exactly is the reason? How slow is the road being built?"

Wang Chongshun listened to Wang Rong's inquiry, and secretly complained in his heart, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Holy Lord, it's not that the ministers are slow in cultivation, they really have no money."

When Wang Rong heard the words "no money", his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he said coldly: "I didn't let you cultivate all of them, just build a few roads first, why don't you have any money?" There's nothing shady about this."

Wang Chongshun couldn't answer, he could only lower his head, and he was about to stick his head into the ground.

Wang Rong looked at him, and when he couldn't ask anything, he turned his head to look at Hua Bufan. When the latter saw Wang Rong looking at him, he quickly put away his lazy appearance, and respectfully bowed his hand and said, "Holy Lord, there is some news from the Prefecture Governor's Office, mainly about Hedong and Hanoi."

Wang Rong nodded and said, "Tell me, I want to know why the money I have allocated is being spent so quickly?"

Hua Bufan took out a letter from his sleeve and respectfully offered it with both hands. Wang Xu took it on the side, and then handed it over to Wang Rong.

Wang Rong spread out the song, while watching, while listening to Hua Bufan's report: "Shengshang, the Chi Road that needs to be built in Bingzhou, the first is the road from Jinyang to Jizhou, the second is the Chi Road from Jinyang to Lishi, the third is the Chi Road from Jinyang to Yanmen County, the fourth is the Chi Road between Yanmen County and Shuofang County, the fifth is the Chi Road between Xihe County and Shuofang County, the sixth is the Chi Road between Xihe County and Hedong County, the seventh is the Chi Road between Taiyuan County and Hedong County, the eighth is the Chi Road between Taiyuan and Shangdang County, and the ninth is the Chi Road between Shangdang and The Chi Road of the two counties of Hanoi, the tenth is the Chi Road of the two counties of Ha Dong and Hanoi.

Now it has been completely completed, and it is the first gallop road. Through the supervision of the Inspectorate, this road has been built so well that the minister can guarantee that even if it is used for ten years, it will only be slightly repaired."

Wang Rong nodded slightly after listening to Hua Bufan's words, and then motioned for the latter to continue. Hua Bufan organized his language for a moment, and then said: "However, the Supervision Office has explored the Chi Road between Shuofang County and Yanmen County, since Yanmen County has merged with Dingxiang and Yunzhong, the territory is very large, and the government system is a little chaotic, which gives those small people an opportunity to take advantage of. By repairing the gallop road, they deducted all kinds of maintenance workers, and at the same time cut corners, which caused the gallop to be bad, and the minister thought that these gallop roads would have to be overhauled again in less than three years."

After listening to Hua Bufan's words, Wang Bian looked at Wang Chongshun on the ground and said, "I feel that it is too bloated to divide so many counties and counties in the northern part of the state, so I also merged Yunzhong into Yanmen County. I thought it would go well, but now I look at it

Come, some people are dissatisfied with my approach, and they think that I have cut off their financial means, and then they steal money from my pocket. Wang Zhoumu, what do you think should be done with such a person?"

Wang Chongshun touched his head to the ground and said eagerly: "Shengshang, such people are the enemies of my Tang Kingdom, they have betrayed the Tang Kingdom, they have betrayed the Shengshang, this is a rebellion, they should be killed!" The three tribes should be punished!"

Wang Rong nodded and said, "That's right, Flower Inspector, Wang Zhoumu's suggestion, you heard it, just do it, I will order the arrest department to assist."

Hua Bufan bowed and saluted, "The minister receives the order."

Wang Rong thought for a moment, and then said, "Oh, by the way, these people must be arrested, interrogated well, and at the same time, they must collect enough solid evidence. It is necessary to be justified and evidence-based, and not to fall into the mouth and provoke right and wrong."

Hua Bufan hesitated for a moment and said, "The minister takes the order!"

Wang Rong looked at Wang Chongshun on the ground and said, "Wang Zhoumu, get up, the ground is cold."

"Thank you, Holy Grace!"

Wang Chongshun got up from the ground, ignoring the dust on his body, he saluted again, and then sat down in his seat again.

Wang Rong then looked at Lin Zongsui and said with a smile, "Brother Lin, don't come unharmed."

Lin Zongsui hurriedly got up and saluted: "The Holy Lord has tormented the last general, and the last general will never dare to be the word "Brother Lin"."

Wang Rong asked, "It's a bit of a condescension to let Brother Lin be the governor of the state, Brother Lin should go to the guard army and make meritorious deeds on the battlefield."

Lin Zongsui raised his hand and scratched his head, and said, "The last general is not ambitious, my father said that the last general is not capable enough, if he enters the guard army and falls into a dangerous place, not to mention, it will also affect the soldiers under his command, so he just let the last general stay in the position of the governor of the state."

Wang Rong nodded, satisfied in his heart, Lin Zongsui's military ability is not very strong, as a vanguard general, it is okay to charge into battle, but leading an army alone makes him not very relieved.

Wang Rong gathered his thoughts and asked, "Chief Lin, how is the situation with the county soldiers and county soldiers in the state?"

Lin Zongsui had already had a draft, and he talked eloquently: "Qi Qi Sheng, now in the territory of Bingzhou, Taiyuan County has the largest number of county soldiers and the most sophisticated, Taiyuan County has a total of 20,000 county soldiers and 40,000 county soldiers, these soldiers are engaged in agriculture and animal husbandry in peacetime, and they are soldiers in wartime, and they are trained every five days."

Wang Rong nodded, and Lin Zongsui continued: "Since Xihe County is the heart of the state, the military pressure is not so strong, so there are 10,000 county soldiers in Xihe County and 30,000 county soldiers. The county soldiers of Shuofang County and Yanmen County each had 15,000 soldiers and 50,000 county soldiers. Ha Dong County and Hanoi County each have 18,000 county soldiers and 40,000 county soldiers. Shangdang County has 12,000 county soldiers and 30,000 county soldiers."

Wang Rong then asked, "How's the armament?"

Lin Zongsui said: "The armor of the county soldiers and the county soldiers is all light leather armor, and there will be subtle differences depending on the place they belong to. The main arms of the county soldiers and county soldiers are sword and shield soldiers, followed by spearmen, and finally crossbowmen. There were a small number of cavalry in Shuofang, Yanmen, Hedong and Hanoi."

Wang Rong looked at Wu Xinghan and said, "Old Wu, how is it, has the army been assembled?"

Wu Xinghan nodded and said, "As long as the Holy Lord gives an order, the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Army will go to the soup and fire."

Wang Rong waved his hand and said, "It's not as serious as you say, this time there is not only your army, but also other armies."

Wang Rong did not reveal the reason for using the army in front of the five people, after all, it was not yet time. Wang Rong looked at Wang Chongshun again, his expression was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Wang Zhoumu, the development of the state needs to rely on a solid and smooth road. With roads, the abundant minerals in the mountains of Nagaju can be mined and then shipped to various places for sale. It is not that there is no agriculture in the state, and those hills that are not very high can also be cultivated. There is also smelting, etc., which are all methods that are conducive to the people's livelihood and develop production, and you have to do your best to think of them."

Wang Chongshun bowed and said, "Enlighten the Holy Lord, the minister knows, and the minister must respect the Holy Lord's teachings and strive to find ways to encourage the people's livelihood."

Wang Rong then said to Hua Bufan: "Flower Inspector, this is the wind and grass in the state, I hope you can find out in time that you are a barrier to my Tang Kingdom

I hope this barrier will be tougher for those outlaws."

Hua Bufan listened to Wang Rong's words, and hurriedly saluted: "The minister will not live up to the holy entrustment."

Wang Rong looked at Lin Zongsui again and said, "Chief Lin, mobilize the county soldiers of Taiyuan, Shangdang, Xihe, Hedong and Hebei counties, and you will command them, and as for the next action, I will send someone to give you a decree."

Lin Zongsui listened to Wang Rong's words, and sighed in his heart, this seems to be a big move, but now that it's almost spring ploughing, where is the saint going to fight?
