Chapter 705

Although Lan Tian refused, he was very honest physically. When the fleet docked at Jiangling Wharf to rest, he sent Gao Yuan to send the letter to the wharf station.

Regarding the matter of Huben Academy, Lan Tian had to discuss it with Guan Yu in advance, and by the way, Lan Ji had to be mentally prepared, because if he was sent to the school for a few years of further study, his chances of going to the battlefield would be extended later.

The fleet transferred from the Yangtze River to Dongting, and the water flow changed from downstream to upstream. The boatmen needed to work harder, but the Xiangshui River Basin and the Yushui River Basin in Jiaozhou were well-equipped, and there were docks for rest and supplies every few tens of miles.

At the beginning of May, when Lantian's fleet arrived at Panyu Wharf, Gao Shun rushed to greet him as soon as he received the news.

The convoy escorted by the stragglers walked slowly towards Guangzhou City. The people along the way saw the big blue characters on the flag, and spontaneously ran to the side of the road and cheered.

After the news of Lantian's entry into Sichuan spread in Jiaozhou, many people speculated that Lantian would never come back. Those people who had just lived a good life felt depressed during this period. The direct relationship, fortunately, Jiang Wan's administration was also sound, and in the days when Lantian left, he managed Jiaozhou in an orderly manner.

Lan Tian likes to speak with facts. Even with a mouthpiece like Lingnan News, he is not used to raising public opinion through political showmanship. The daily expenses of the state shepherd's mansion are not large, but Lan Tian did not deliberately make Lu Lingqi frugal. Let the people praise themselves as a good official, and the people at the bottom can eat and wear warmly, that is their personal feeling.

"General Sha went to Jieyang?" Lan Tian and Gao Shun walked ahead and saw that Sha Moke was not in the welcoming team, so they guessed that the other party should go to Jieyang to help collect seaweed.

Gao Shun nodded and replied, "I left in a hurry at the end of last month, but I left a few thousand barbarians in Guangzhou, and they are usually practicing with the recruits who were trapped in the battle."

"It's good for him to keep the barbarians. I happen to have some construction arrangements. Besides, what is Gongyan busy with today? Why didn't Boping invite him to come with him?" Ke's group of 'Engineering Department' is the most comfortable to use.

After hearing this, Gao Shun smiled wryly: "Sir, he didn't send someone to communicate in advance. It was the fleet discovered by Yushui scouts. I saw that Jiang Biejia was busy, so I didn't notify him."

"It's still Boping who knows me. It's fine if you didn't notify me. I know that I don't like ostentation. It's better to handle things better than anything else. Is there any problem in Jiaozhou during this time?" Lan Tian sighed and couldn't help asking.

"Jiaozhou's military affairs are all normal, but" Gao Shun hesitated to speak.

Lan Tian's heart tightened when he heard this, he thought that something serious happened, so he hurriedly asked: "Could something happen?"

Gao Shun shook his head: "I want to say that Yu Zhongxiang is too accurate. General Li Yi sent someone to report half a month ago. Hurricanes continued to blow in the northwest sea area of ​​Zhuya Island. Seven or eight merchant ships in the past were overturned by wind and waves. Now they are sent to Guangzhou. Long Bian’s merchant ships were forced to suspend sailing, and traders now mostly land from Xuwen County in the north of Zhuya, and continue their journey to Jiaozhi by land.”

"What Boping means?" Lan Tian frowned.

"If Mr. Wang Zhao from Hanzhong hadn't entered Sichuan, Boyang and I should have led our troops to Jiaozhi. The interruption of the sea supply line would be very dangerous. Yu Fan's phrase 'respect for the end' is quite charming." Gao Shun explained.

Lan Tian stroked his beard and his back felt a little cold. He foresaw extreme weather in Huaxia last year, but he forgot that the ocean next to Jiaozhou was not safe. It was just the calmness of the past few years that made him forget the dangers of the sea, such as severe drought, flood, The typhoon will basically come with a set of combined punches.

"Order Li Yi to observe and record more, and report the relevant weather at sea to Li Cao. Although we cannot prevent the occurrence of hurricanes, we can provide assistance for future agricultural production and military operations based on statistical analysis rules. In addition, let them Be careful." Lan Tian ordered.

"I will use the name of Bingcao to order when I go back. The hurricane at sea this year is so abnormal, will we regain Linyi next year?" Gao Shun asked with a frown.

Lan Tian replied: "Bo Ping can rest assured that hurricanes cannot happen every day, but this year there are relatively more, so Li Yi was asked to make observation records. If the situation is good next year, he will send troops, otherwise, he will wait a little longer."

"That's right." Gao Shun nodded in satisfaction.

Because of the front and rear guards of the entrapment army, the convoy caused a sensation after entering the city, and the officials in the city got the news soon.

When the convoy stopped at the main gate of the state capital, Jiang Wan, Yu Fan, Xu Shuang and others were waiting on the side of the road. After Lan Tian greeted everyone, he ordered Lan Yuan and Lu Lingqi to settle down with his family, and Gao Yuan took Wu Ban, Fei Shi, Pang Hong and others went to the post house to rest.

Lan Tian stayed on the boat for more than a month, and now he was gearing up and didn't plan to go back to the back house to rest, but invited everyone to go to the main hall and back hall to discuss matters.

After three months away, Yu Fan organized another selection examination. Jiang Wan selected the best candidates based on the examination results, and temporarily made up for the lack of officials in the counties and counties. The house was blown down by the strong wind, and he ordered Xingcao's officers and soldiers to volunteer to build houses for the affected people, just like the Jingzhou earthquake that year.

Lan Tian nodded frequently when he heard it. The chiefs of Jiaozhou Liucao were able to solve the problem independently during his absence, without waiting or relying on it or shirking responsibility, which made Lan Tian feel very relieved.

"This year may be a disaster year. There is a lot of rain and weather in the south. All government departments need to work together to reduce losses. I think you have assisted quite well. I wonder if there are any difficulties?" Lan Tian asked.

Jiang Wan cupped his hands and replied: "Your Majesty, the young officials who came out of the academy are very motivated. What is lacking is the experience in handling affairs. I believe they will be able to do it in another year. But the low-level official and the householder Cao are too busy. You must give me some help." Just get a helper"

"As you wish, I asked the king for Fei Gongju (Fei Shi). He used to be a county magistrate and sheriff, so he should be able to help Gong Yan." Lan Tian smiled slightly.

"That's really great." Jiang Wan was overjoyed.

"Jiaozhou's official appointment assessment is relatively unfamiliar to Fei Gongju. You hand over the government affairs of Hu Cao to him, and Gong Yan must also serve as official Cao." Lan Tian nodded and added.

"Wei." Jiang Wan cupped his hands in response.

Lan Tian asked other people about their problems. Yu Fan, Xu Shuang, Xu An and others all said that there was no problem. Lan Tian turned to Gao Shun and said, "Wu Yuanxiong (Wu Ban) also followed me back to Jiaozhou. work."

"Don't worry, sir." Gao Shun nodded slightly.

"There is another matter. Pang Dali (Pang Tong) sent his son to Guangzhou Academy. I am a little busy recently. Gong Yan, Zhong Xiang, who of you can help me with the handover for Liu Zhiyuan (Liu Xi)?" Lan Tian asked. with a smile.

Yu Fan and Jiang Wan looked at each other, bowed their hands and said: "Cheng Deshu is also a lecturer in the academy, let him handle the humble job."

"Very good. Later, I will ask Guard Gao to send Pang Jushi (Pang Hong) to Licao." Lan Tian nodded with satisfaction. Yu Fan has changed a lot in Jiaozhou. Wan cooperated well.
