Chapter 425: Circumference Three Missing One
With a smile on his face, but his tone revealed a little sharpness, Yuan Qi said to the dozen or so Jiangdong ministers standing on the right side: "Tell me your reasons." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf you can accept Lonely, Lone will never embarrass you. ”
Among the Jiangdong people who stood on the side of the opposition, Buqi was the most talented and famous minister. After Yuan Qi made an inquiry, Bu Qi took a step forward and said loudly: "Regent, Jiangdong's customs, regional culture, and other places are completely different, and there are still a large number of Shanyue people in Jiangdong, has the regent ever considered how to properly handle the confrontation between them and the Han people? If the regent forcibly includes Jiangdong, then may I ask the regent, will you allow the continuation of the existing system in Jiangdong?" If not, it will inevitably cause a mutiny in Jiangdong, and I am afraid that when the time comes, the regent will not only not get Jiangdong, but will be in a mess!"
Yuan Qi turned his head to look at the others noncommittally, and continued to ask, "What about the others?" "The dozen or so people standing with Bu Qi, you look at me, I look at you, and then with a little uneasiness, they spoke one after another: "If the regent can allow the regent not to abolish the privileges of the Jiangdong clan, I am willing to sincerely submit to the regent." "These people know that the concept of Yuan Qi governing the country is that everyone is equal, and all the big states that are generalized, whether it is the poor and backward light in the north, Ming and other states, or the rich Jizhou in Hebei, whether it is Yizhou in the southwest of the fertile land for thousands of miles, or Jingzhou, which has a vast territory in the south, have all been canceled the system of scholar privileges, if they are submissive, then Jiangdong's scholar privilege system is bound to be unable to preserve, this is the fundamental reason why many people are unwilling to submit, these scholars who have been accustomed to sucking the blood and sweat of the common people, can not accept the scholar system to be banned forever.
When these dozen or so people said this, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong and other far-sighted people immediately cast their eyes on them as if they were looking at the dead. Zhang Zhao and the others are also from the scholar clan, but under the general situation, they chose to sacrifice the family's privileges of the scholar clan. to get the opportunity to let the family pass on, and only in this way can the family in which he belongs continue to thrive under the rule, because Yuan Qi will never change the fundamental concept of governing the country because of the will of a few, which is obviously inconsistent with the interests of the vast majority of people, and make a choice between the minority and the majority, Yuan Qi will definitely choose the majority, let alone abolish the privilege system of the scholars. Originally, Yuan Qi was the first to advocate it! These people who proposed to retain the privileges of the scholar clan were so stupid that they ran into Yuan Qi's knife and didn't even know it, they were really stupid.
Sure enough, after hearing the reasons of these dozen people, Yuan Qi's face gradually became cold, and his tone became more majestic: "There is a country first, and then there is a family." The comparison of personal gains and losses with the honor and disgrace of the country is really insignificant. How can you allow your own selfish interests to override the whole country? As for Buqi Buzi Mountain. You are considering the problem from the perspective of the overall situation, which is not mixed with personal interests, and now Lone can tell you very clearly that Bo Fu and Zhong Mou govern Jiangdong's concept. The concept of Gugo is in the same vein, and within ten years, without special changes, Jiangdong's existing policies will not change. Now, do you have any questions?"
Because Bu Qi only joined the Jiangdong group later, he was not clear about Sun Ce and Sun Quan's concept of governing the country. It was learned and borrowed from Yuan Qi, and after being broken by Yuan Qi, Bu Qi immediately bowed his hand to Yuan Qi and said respectfully: "If this is the case, the minister has no objections." As he spoke, he moved from the camp on the right to the camp on the left.
After Buqi's footsteps stopped completely, Yuan Qi said loudly: "Now, the first edict of the lonely ruler of Jiangdong, the people in the queue on the left, except for the necessary personnel changes, the rest of the people will remain unchanged, and the number of people will increase by one percent. Buqi dared to speak out, so the official was promoted to one level, and the number of people in the middle queue was dismissed from all official positions and never hired. The people standing in the queue on the right side are no longer worthy to continue to exist in the world for their own interests, so they will be taken down and immediately beheaded for public display! All their family property will be confiscated, and their family members will be reduced to commoners and exiled to Gwangju!"
As soon as Yuan Qi's edict was issued, the Hundred Battles Tiangui standing behind him immediately divided into two teams of men and horses, a team of more than a dozen people rushed forward, and drew out the horse chopping knife behind their backs, the cold blade flashed with cold light, and wiped it on the necks of more than a dozen Jiangdong officials on the right, bringing up a gushing blood fountain, ending their lives here; the other team was composed of more than 500 people, who were scattered into more than a dozen squads under the leadership of the Qianlong members, and rushed towards the mansions of the dozen Jiangdong officials who had just been killed!
The carrot and stick policy is a popular leadership technique in later generations, and Yuan Qi used this method very smartly. While guaranteeing the people of Jiangdong who were willing to surrender, he also adopted the means of bloody suppression to completely wipe out those hidden parasites! Between one reward and one punishment, there were clear layers and order, and Yuan Qi used such a method of combining grace and power to complete the initial integration of all the civil and military officials in Jiangdong.
After this period of turmoil, Yuan Qi ignored the more than ten decapitated corpses and bloodstains on the ground, and said to Sun Ce with a smile: "Bo Fu, aren't you going to take Gu to Jianye City to sit?"
Sun Ce hurriedly turned over and got on his horse, and then arched his hand at Yuan Qi and said, "Ministers Sun Ce has orders! Please invite King Yan into the city!" Sun Quan and other civil and military officials immediately shouted in unison: "Ministers welcome King Yan into the city." The subtle change in the title is enough to explain everything, the title of Yuan Qi has changed from the regent to the king of Yan, which is equivalent to Jiangdong since Sun Ce and below, and has officially recognized the rule of Gui Shun! At this point, after Jingzhou, Jiangdong has also been incorporated into the territory without blood, and the great encirclement of Ugong Terulie in the Yuan Qi plan has been completed.
After entering Jianye City, Yuan Qi stayed for a month. During this period, Yuan Qi made some adjustments to Jiangdong's personnel, and under the advice of the poisoner Jia Yuan and Li Ru, the commander of Qianlong, he divided the family born and raised in Jiangdong, such as Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, who were also born in the Zhang family, Zhang Zhao was not transferred, and still stayed in Jiangdong to help Sun Quan manage internal affairs, but Zhang Hong was transferred to Yanjing and became a minister of the court, instead of a local official. Benefits of doing so: It is to divide power to avoid the phenomenon of a family having too much power in Jiangdong in the future, and to put it bluntly, Yuan Qi is avoiding risks. Such a transfer lasted for more than 20 days before it ended, and Yuan Qi made some transfers to a greater or lesser extent to the eight major families in Jiangdong, transferring nearly one-fifth of them to various large states or promoting them to positions in the central government. At the same time, Yuan Qi also transferred officials from other states to serve in Jiangdong. In the process of transfer, Yuan Qi also took into account the actual situation of these families, and all personnel transfers will not cause the loss of talent of these families. He also divided the power, effectively ensuring the stability of the Jiangdong region, and at the same time, in a series of transfers, he effectively grasped the great power of Jiangdong in his own hands.
After the personnel adjustment was completed, Yuan Qi set his sights on military affairs again. In any case, Yuan Qi is still a martial artist in his bones, so no matter where he goes, he attaches great importance to the combat effectiveness of his soldiers. In Jiangdong, an area with many lakes and water flows, Danyang is an extremely rare place where cavalry is abundant. Moreover, the Shanyue people in Jiangdong are also excellent combat arms. Yuan Qi has no reason to bury these elite cavalry. In addition, the comprehensive quality of the Jiangdong Navy is also the water army with the highest index in the whole world, although the Qilin Navy under Yuan Qi is elite. But after all, there are only 20,000 people, and in a large-scale water war, it is far from being able to play a role in swaying the tide of the war, therefore. Absorbing the elite of the Jiangdong Navy and replenishing fresh blood to the Qilin Navy is also a matter that Yuan Qi urgently needs to solve.
In fact, it's not just the Kirin Water Army. After a series of major battles, the four elite troops under the command of Yuan Qi have suffered some losses, and none of the elite troops can still maintain a complete establishment, and the expansion of these elite troops will make their combat effectiveness to a higher level, which will have a huge role in helping to conquer Ugong Terulie in the future.
In the last ten days of Jianye's stay, Yuan Qi devoted all his attention to expanding the elite troops. The first to be expanded is the Kirin Water Army. The special topography of Jiangdong and Jingzhou determines the quality of the naval armies of these two large states, and it is really the best choice to select the elite from the naval armies of these two large states and expand the Qilin naval army. Yuan Qi asked Pang Tong and Sun Ce to select 50,000 elite sailors in the Dazhou he was in charge of, and sent them to Gan Jing's station, where Gan Jing conducted another round of screening, and then selected more than 30,000 elites, bringing the total number of Qilin troops to 50,000. As for the people who are slightly worse than the selection criteria of the Qilin Army, they are also elite soldiers, Yuan Qi did not have a reason to abandon them, but asked Zhou Yu to reorganize them, form a 70,000-strong naval army, practice day and night, and build fortifications hundreds of miles away from Gan Jing's station, and form a corner with Gan Jing's department, completely blocking the entire Yangtze River, and eliminating any possibility of Ugong Terulie launching a sneak attack.
At the same time, Yuan Qi also summoned nearly 100,000 Danyang cavalry and Shanyue elite cavalry and a part of Jingzhou's cavalry, led by Zhao Hu to select Shangguan, in line with the purpose of preferring shortage to excess, adhering to the principle of complementarity between combat effectiveness and loyalty, and finally selected 30,000 strong combat strength of the iron cavalry among the 100,000 people, and incorporated them into the Tiangui Army, making the total number of the Tiangui Army also reach 50,000 people, becoming the second elite army to complete the expansion of the army. The eliminated elite cavalry was divided into two, half of which was assigned to Pang Tong, and the other half was assigned to Sun Ce, which also played a complementary role in the military strength of Jingzhou and Jiangdong.
Because the land return army is a heavy infantry army, and the physical fitness requirements for each member are extremely high, the expansion of the army can not be completed for a while, Yuan Qi can only let Yizhou Mu Xu Shu in Yizhou, first select the elite who meet the conditions of the land return force, and wait for Ma Yue to screen in person. After all, due to the mountainous geographical environment of Yizhou, the military quality of the infantry soldiers in the territory is still very strong. As for the Flying Dragon Army led by Qi Tian, they can only expand their army after returning to Yanjing. There are a large number of Sinicized Xin barbarians, Thorn Towers and Xianbei people living in the three states of Guang, Ming and Tong, where it is the cradle of cavalry, even if you want to gather a million cavalry, it is not difficult to summon a million cavalry, all Qi Tian has to do is to select the best of the best, keep improving, select 30,000 heavy cavalry to supplement the flying dragon heavy cavalry, for Qi Tian, there is no difficulty.
When the expansion of the four elites is completed, the tacit understanding between each other and the cultivation of the military soul meet the requirements of Yuan Qi, it will be the day when Yuan Qi leads the army to encircle and suppress Ugong Zhaolie.
