Double penetration: This Three Kingdoms has dragon energy

Chapter 98 This wave, this wave is in the atmosphere!
Yuan Shao said coldly, "Old Yuan Wei, you regard Yuan Ji as the bright moon in the sky, and Yuan Shu and I as the mud at the bottom of the river.

Little do they know that the bright moon in the sky will also fall into the abyss one day.

Even the mud at the bottom of the river can achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven!
Now that I have seen through his thoughts, I will no longer follow his arrangements and become his pawn!
From today on, I will take my destiny into my own hands!"

"So, my lord, are you going to refuse the head of the family's request to summon you back to Luoyang City?" Xu You said with a heavy heart.

To be fair, this is not a bad choice.

The subsequent struggle in Luoyang City will be fierce, and given Yuan Shao's position in the Yuan family, it will become very dangerous.

If you can stay in Bohai County, you can avoid these dangers.

But doing so would mean a complete break with Yuan Wei.

And this will be very disadvantageous for Yuan Shao now!
Yuan Shao shook his head and said, “At this moment, we cannot refuse Yuan Wei’s order to recall us to Luoyang.

But I will not bring all my strength back to Luoyang City as Yuan Ji said!
Ziyuan, this world won't be at peace for long.

Soon we will enter a chaotic era like the end of the Qin Dynasty or the Wang Mang period of the previous dynasty.

But in times of chaos, so-called fame and official positions are not worth mentioning.

All they really have are soldiers, money and food!

Yuan Wei and Yuan Ji believed that the core of the future world would be Luoyang City. As long as they controlled Luoyang City, they would control the world!
But in my opinion, on the contrary, the most useless thing in the future may be the city of Luoyang!
In comparison, the Bohai County in my hands now, which is rich in resources and has a large population, is the foundation of the king and the place where the dragon rises!

Therefore, I will leave most of my forces in Bohai County, accumulate money and food here, expand the army, and wait for the right time!

Going to Luoyang City is nothing more than using this key to unlock the shackles on my body!"

Xu You was shocked. He never expected that Yuan Shao, who had suddenly realized the truth, would show such amazing vision and courage.

Is this still the Yuan Shao he knew before?

Or is it really as the fortune teller who told Yuan Shao his fortune when he was young said:

Yuan Shao's power is as unpredictable as the wind and clouds.

When facing headwinds, it is like a lone wolf in the dark night, resourceful and tenacious, able to cut through the thorns and be reborn as a butterfly.

When the wind is favorable, it is like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, arrogant and unrestrained, running around here and there, but to no avail!
But no matter what, after listening to Yuan Shao's analysis of the future situation, Xu You was impressed by Yuan Shao from the bottom of his heart.

In the past, he recognized Yuan Shao as his master only because of Yuan Shao's family background.

But now, people have really begun to recognize Yuan Shao's ability and personal charm.

He then plopped to his knees and said solemnly, "I never thought that my lord would have such great ambitions!
I am willing to go through fire and water to fulfill my lord's wish, and I will not hesitate to do so!"

"Haha, Ziyuan, please stand up quickly. You and I are master and servant, and we have long been of one mind and one destiny. Why do we need all this empty formalities?
However, if I want to complete my plan, I really need Ziyuan's help. I hope Ziyuan can lend me a hand!" Yuan Shao helped Xu You up and said sincerely.

Xu You immediately said, "My lord, if you have any instructions, please give them directly. I will do it even if it costs my life!"

"Haha, Ziyuan has already said that this matter doesn't require Ziyuan's life, only Ziyuan's talent!

As I said just now, Bohai County is the foundation of my future, and I want to keep most of my power here.

At the same time, I also need someone with extraordinary ability to take charge of the overall situation on my behalf.

This person must be Ziyuan!" Yuan Shao said.

Xu You said without hesitation: "Please rest assured, my lord. I will manage Bohai County with all my heart and make it the starting point of your great cause!"

"Okay, with Ziyuan's help, I don't have to worry about not achieving my great cause!" Yuan Shao laughed.

……

Taishan County, Fenggao County, and the prefectural government office.

Ji Qiu and his civil and military officials all knelt in the courtyard in an orderly manner.

In front of them was an incense table.

In front of the incense table is an angel dressed in palace robes.

The angel held the imperial edict in his hands and read it out in a rhythmic manner: "I rule over the four seas, and only virtue can support me. If I want to bring peace and tranquility to the nine provinces, I must rely on the efforts of good officials.

Taishan County controls the sea and the mountains on the left and Yan and Yu on the right. However, in recent years, it has been instigated by the Yellow Turban bandit Xu He to cause chaos in the wild. The three families of Yang, Zang and Bao have rebelled against the court, colluding with each other and harming the people. Whenever I think of this, I can't help but sigh and feel hatred.

Ji Qiu, the former lieutenant of Mount Tai, was a man of great loyalty and bravery, and was good at making extraordinary plans.

First defeat the Yellow Turbans, then destroy the rebels.

He turned hostility into friendship and won the surrender of 100,000 Yellow Turbans, fully demonstrating the king's benevolent virtue.

Eliminating a powerful clan is like cooking a small fish. Eliminating a century-old traitor in one day shows the power of a minister.

Now, Ji Qiu is specially promoted to be the governor of Mount Tai, and is granted the title of Marquis of Andai Ting, with a fief of 500 households, and is given a gold seal, purple ribbon, red wheels and a gorgeous hub, and his rank is increased to 2,000 stones.

He was still ordered to be the commander-in-chief of the military affairs of Taishan, Qi County and Jinan, and was allowed to appoint his own officials such as the Chief Secretary and the Secretary of State.

In the last quarter of autumn, we should think about how to win over distant people with virtue and stop punishment with punishment, so that there will be no hungry people in Taishan County and no powerful and cunning people in the towns, and that officials will perform their duties well and people will be at peace with their work.

Announce it to the world, and the envoys will hear about it. "

After the edict was read, an angel came out from behind the incense table, handed the edict to Ji Qiu with a flattering smile, and said, "Congratulations, my lord. Congratulations, my lord. From today on, you are the Marquis of Andai Ting and the governor of Mount Tai!"

"Haha, Angel, you're too kind! The fact that I was able to receive these rewards is inseparable from the kind words of several palace attendants!
It's just a small token of my respect, but please accept it!" Ji Qiu took the imperial edict, laughed heartily, and pointed at the large box carried by the four guards.

When the box was opened, it was filled with glassware, night pearls, pearls and other items.

These are all things that were rare and precious in the Three Kingdoms period, but are common in modern times. However, if you get the Three Kingdoms items in modern times, they are not easy to sell.

This kind of thing is perfect for giving as a gift to build relationships.

When the angel saw these treasures, the smile on his face suddenly became more sincere.

He had smiled flatteringly before only because he knew Ji Qiu's status in the hearts of the emperor and the ten eunuchs and did not want to offend Ji Qiu.

But he would not provide any help to Ji Qiu, and might even secretly trip Ji Qiu up.

Now that he has this generous gift, regardless of whether he will provide help, at least he will not be a hindrance.

Then Ji Qiu ordered his personal guards to escort the angel away.

After the angel left, his civil and military officials congratulated him in unison, "Congratulations, lord, on being made a marquis and promoted to the position of governor of Mount Tai!"

"Haha, everyone, please stand up. I can be where I am today because of your help!" Ji Qiu laughed.

After the civil and military officials rose, he addressed Xi Zhong, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia, "Especially you three gentlemen, your intelligence and strategy truly astound me. This time, the Emperor and the other officials in the court have been manipulated by you!"

What Ji Qiu meant was naturally the petition for merit jointly prepared by the three major counselors.

In the past month or so, this petition for merit had caused a lot of commotion in Luoyang City.

First, Liu Hong and Wang Yue thought that Ji Qiu, while showing his strength and loyalty to them, also wanted to trick the aristocratic families on behalf of the emperor.

It was based on this judgment that Liu Hong increased the reward for Ji Qiu. Otherwise, he would at most only be given the position of Taishan prefect, and would never be granted a title of nobility.

The reason why Liu Hong did this was to further stimulate Yuan Wei and let Yuan Wei lead the aristocratic families to fight to the death with Ji Qiu.

However, the cunning Yuan Wei did not fall for it. He also realized from the report that Ji Qiu was not easy to take down.

So, considering the situation of the Yuan family, he accepted Yuan Ji's suggestion and used economic blockade to retaliate against Ji Qiu.

Then he focused his main energy and strength on suppressing Emperor Liu Hong.

Whether it was Liu Hong, Wang Yue, Yuan Wei or Yuan Ji, they all made decisions that they thought were very smart, but they did not know that all their thoughts and decisions were within the expectations of the three great counselors.

And their actions and behaviors are exactly what Ji Qiu and the three counselors want to achieve!

Putting aside the purpose of getting more benefits from Liu Hong, the reaction from the Yuan family is what Ji Qiu wants most!
With the conquest of Taishan County, the next step is to build Taishan County.

The construction of Taishan County requires a relatively stable surrounding environment.

Therefore, Ji Qiu does not want to go to war with the surrounding forces for a considerable period of time in the future.

But this is not an easy goal to achieve.

On the one hand, his opposition to the aristocratic families is already known to the world.

The aristocratic families in the surrounding states and counties will never let him go easily.

We will definitely find a way to nip this dangerous element in the bud.

At this point, the Yuan family was actually in a difficult situation.

As for the Yuan family, their base is actually their hometown Runan County, Jizhou, the main gathering area of ​​their disciples and former officials, and Luoyang City.

Taishan County where Ji Qiu is located does not border any of these three places, so they are not in any real danger.

Previously, Yuan Wei wanted to deal with Ji Qiu more for the sake of the Yuan family's face.

But face is something that is valuable at one time and worthless at the other.

Anyway, when Yuan Wei found that the difficulty of dealing with Ji Qiu exceeded a certain limit, he gave up.

It’s just that the Yuan family is the leader of a prominent family.

As a leader, since he has enjoyed the benefits brought by the aristocratic family camp, he naturally has to contribute to the aristocratic family camp.

Therefore, when the noble families in the surrounding states and counties were hostile to Ji Qiu, the Yuan family had no choice but to give up the fight with Ji Qiu.

They must continue to fight with Ji Qiu, otherwise they may be abandoned by the aristocratic family camp.

A boss who is unwilling to stand up for his subordinates is destined to have no support.

On the other hand, even the aristocratic families in the surrounding states and counties really let him go, thinking that less trouble is worse than more.

Emperor Liu Hong would not let him live in peace either.

After all, the purpose of Emperor Liu Hong placing him here was to have him fight to the death with the surrounding aristocratic families in order to relieve the pressure on Liu Hong in Luoyang City.

As for Ji Qiu's life or death, Liu Hong didn't care. So how could we achieve a state that was not a truce, but better than a truce?

The best way, of course, is to let the aristocratic families impose an economic blockade on him!
On this aspect, due to the special geographical conditions of Taishan County, in the eyes of everyone, this is a way of attacking that can put tremendous pressure on Ji Qiu.

Ji Qiu must use a lot of strength to resist this pressure.

Therefore, whether it was the Yuan family's response to the aristocratic family camp, or Ji Qiu's response to Emperor Liu Hong, there was an explanation.

On the other hand, this so-called attack method cannot really hurt Ji Qiu.

Because Ji Qiu doesn't need any resources outside of Taishan County in the Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms!
He has a time and space portal that allows him to travel back and forth to the modern world.

There are both the resources he needs and the market for him to dump his goods.

Why do we need to do business with the natives of the three Longqi countries?
The so-called economic blockade by the Yuan family actually created a safe zone for him to develop with peace of mind!
One day in the future, when everyone thinks that Ji Qiu, who is trapped in Taishan County, is about to starve to death, Ji Qiu will give them a huge surprise!

So, this time, the emperor and Wang Yue thought they were on the second level, Yuan Wei thought he was on the third level, and Ji Qiu had already reached the atmosphere.

Ji Qiu put aside these thoughts and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone, follow me to the meeting room. It's time for the meeting!"

Since taking over Taishan County, Ji Qiu has dispersed his civil and military officials to carry out tasks in various parts of the county.

We rarely get together.

But today all the core members under his command are present.

The reason why they were all here together was certainly not because of the angels.

Angels don't have that much face.

The real reason is that Ji Qiu will hold a summary meeting for the fifth year of Zhongping in Taishan County and a preparatory meeting for the sixth year of Zhongping in the prefectural office today!

It is now mid-December of the fifth year of Zhongping.

The ups and downs of the Zhongping five years are about to come to an end, and the even more ups and downs of the Zhongping six years are about to come.

At this critical moment of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new at the end of the year, as a modern person who has been influenced by modern corporate management concepts, Ji Qiu believes it is necessary to summarize the work and life situation of the past year and plan the work and life tasks for the coming year.

Therefore, it is very necessary and urgent to hold a high-level core meeting in a timely manner to unify thoughts and clarify goals.

Everyone followed Ji Qiu into the conference room, which was decorated in a modern conference room style.

In the center is a large oval desk, surrounded by a circle of chairs, and there is a nameplate in front of each chair.

The nameplate located in the first position in the front is naturally the name of Ji Qiu, the prefect of Mount Tai.

On Ji Qiu's left were Zhuge Gui, head of the Government Affairs Department, Guo Jia, head of the Internal Affairs Department, Jia Xu, head of the External Affairs Department, Zao Zhi, head of the Industry Department, Yuan Huan, head of the Agriculture Department, Zhang Zhongjing, head of the Health Department, Ren Hongchang, head of the Education Department, and Zhang Ning, head of the Propaganda Department.

On the right are Xi Zhong, head of the Military Affairs Department, Xu He, commander-in-chief of the Taishan County troops, Dian Wei, commander of the Royal Guard Battalion, Wei Yan, commander of the Weiwu Battalion, Gao Shun, commander of the Xianzhen Camp, Zhao Yun, commander of the Cavalry Battalion, Huang Zhong, commander of the Mountain Battalion, and Yu Jin, commander of the Training Camp.

At the bottom of the desk opposite Ji Qiu is the recorder Cai Zhenji.

Ji Qiu actually never quite understood the official system of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In fact, the official positions of the Eastern Han Dynasty were not very suitable for the future development of Taishan County.

Because Ji Qiu wants to use modern technology to develop Taishan County.

Therefore, Ji Qiu carried out a reform of the official system of the Taishou Mansion in accordance with the modern official system.

The officials of the prefectural government were divided into departments whose responsibilities could be clearly identified from their names.

The only official position that needs to be explained is probably the commander-in-chief of the Taishan County troops.

This is actually a position that can only be used in wartime.

At present, because Ji Qiu is already the prefect of Mount Tai, all the troops under his command are incorporated into the combat sequence of the Mount Tai County soldiers.

The commander-in-chief of the Taishan County troops, after obtaining authorization from Ji Qiu, has the ability to command all the Taishan County troops in battle during wartime.

This is a position specially set up for Xu He by Ji Qiu in order to bring out his innate secret skills.

In non-war situations, Xu He's real job is to be the deputy of the Military Affairs Department, assisting Xi Zhong in the army's logistics training, military planning and other work.

Ji Qiu waved his hand, signaling everyone to sit in their respective seats according to the nameplates.

Then he said, “Okay, everyone is here, let’s start the meeting now.

Let’s start with a summary meeting. Let’s all talk about the developments of the past year, starting with the Government Affairs Department!”

The Zhuge family has officially joined Ji Qiu, and Zhuge Gui's health has improved greatly after more than a month of treatment by Zhang Zhongjing.

In addition, he was originally the magistrate of Taishan County and had good administrative ability, so Ji Qiu appointed him as the head of the political affairs department of the Taishan County Prefectural Office.

At present, he is actually in charge of the entire government affairs of Taishan County.

It was obviously the first time for Zhuge Gui to attend this type of meeting, but he did not show any unfamiliarity or discomfort.

After hearing Ji Qiu's words, he stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll talk about the situation in the Ministry of Government Affairs first.

As everyone knows, the people's livelihood and government affairs in Taishan County in the fifth year of Zhongping were in a state of extreme chaos until mid-October when the lord defeated the coalition forces of the aristocratic families.

It was not until the lord subdued the Yellow Turbans of Mount Tai with lightning speed and wiped out the three major families that he returned the power over the people's livelihood in the counties of Mount Tai to the prefectural government.

Therefore, the real changes in the people’s livelihood and government affairs in Taishan County actually occurred within two months from mid-October to mid-December.

During these two months, our Government Affairs Department, under the leadership of our Lord, has mainly carried out the following two tasks.

First, an inventory of the population and farmland in the entire county was conducted.

Currently, there are 7248 households and 324,372 people in the county.

In terms of population structure, young and middle-aged men make up the majority, accounting for 60% of the total!

共有17万8300亩肥田，26万4500亩良田，54万7200亩薄田。

Second, based on the existing twelve counties in Taishan County, twelve large gathering places will be established, providing resources such as work, food, housing, medical care, and education.

This received strong support from the people of Taishan County, and a steady stream of people moved to the gathering place to live.

As of now, more than 40% of the entire army has moved to the gathering area."

For normal feudal dynasties, clearing fields and clearing mouths has been a difficult problem since ancient times.

When the Eastern Han Dynasty was established, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu almost caused the whole country to rebel in order to clear the fields.

Zhang Juzheng's land clearing also caused half of Jiangnan to be filled with rebels.

Not to mention the land clearing by Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty, which was implemented only after countless lives were lost.

In fact, even the land clearing activities during the founding of the University of Tokyo were also very difficult.

It was not until the 20th century that modern Southeast University was able to obtain accurate data on the number of acres of farmland in the country with the help of a satellite monitoring system accurate to the meter.

It sounds incredible that the Ministry of Government Affairs was able to complete the task of clearing the fields and mouths in Taishan County in just two months.

But Ji Qiu's situation is very special after all.

First of all, he has sufficient talent reserves.

The literacy campaign that had been launched throughout the army long ago provided him with a large number of basic arithmetic talents.

Secondly, he has sufficient technical reserves.

With the modern world behind him, he can find countless methods needed for clearing fields throughout history, and at the same time use modern technology to speed up the progress of clearing fields and mouths.

Third, he has sufficient reserves of secret techniques.

The secret techniques of dragon energy of political talents such as Zao Zhi, Zhao Lei, and Zhuge Gui can all play an auxiliary role in the task of clearing the fields and clearing the mouths.

This is an advantage that modern Tokyo University does not have.

Fourth, he has enough troops!

Whenever you want to clear the fields, you must be prepared to fight.

But fortunately, Ji Qiu is not afraid of fighting.

The number of Taishan County soldiers under his command has exceeded 100,000.

There are also many capable and battle-hardened generals.

It is enough to suppress any force in Taishan County that dares to resist!
It was precisely with the support of these conditions and the concerted efforts of all officials in the Ministry of Government Affairs that the Ministry of Government Affairs completed this seemingly impossible task in just two months!

Compared with this task, establishing twelve major gathering places is just a secondary task.

After all, the work, food, housing, medical care, education and other resources needed in the gathering place are all provided by other departments, and the Ministry of Government Affairs only plays a role in communication and coordination.

Zhuge Gui sat down after finishing his report, and the next person to report on his work was Guo Jia, the head of the Internal Affairs Department, who was sitting next to him.

The full name of the Internal Statistics Department is the Internal Data Statistics Analysis and Investigation Department.

Its main duty is actually to collect intelligence from various forces within Taishan County.

Guo Jia stood up and said expressionlessly, "It is inconvenient to report the specific data collected by the Internal Affairs Department here.

I can only talk about the conclusions reached by the Internal Affairs Department through analysis of the data collected.

At present, the situation in Taishan County is not optimistic.

Although the three most powerful families in Taishan County were eliminated.

However, there are also many second-tier noble families and powerful people spread all over the place in Taishan County.

In the previous campaign to clear fields and clear mouths, these noble families and powerful people had become very dissatisfied with their lord. They even sent private armies to assassinate officials sent to various counties by the prefectural government, regardless of whether they were noble families or powerful people!
Although under the suppression of the county soldiers, those rebels who dared to show their heads have all been executed.

But there are more rebels lurking beneath the surface, waiting for an opportunity to strike!

Therefore, we must never let our guard down and must keep a close eye on them at all times. Once they make any move, we must immediately take action and kill them all!
Next, the Internal Affairs Department will launch a 100-day campaign across the county to eliminate organized crime and eliminate evil, and will thoroughly and mercilessly crack down on those criminals who blatantly violate the prefectural government's orders!"
