Chapter 107
Nanhai County, General Pingman's Mansion.

At the end of the Xin'an War, Li Qing moved the administrative center back to Nanhai County again. It would be unreasonable for the county to be the highest administrative body after the addition of Hepu and Cangwu counties.

The General's Mansion was officially in operation. At Yan Zhengyi's suggestion, Li Qingzhao told the three counties to call themselves General Zhennan.

Li Qing sat in the main hall, dealing with the backlog of official documents, many of which had been instructed by Yan Zhengyi but still needs to be confirmed by him, and then handed over the signed letter of appointment to the soldiers, which was an order to appoint the prefect of the three counties.

"Hepu County needs to be stable, and Sun Liang is still appointed as the prefect. The former Longchuan county magistrate Mu Yuanwei did a good job, and he was the first civil servant to defect. He just happened to be promoted to be the prefect of Nanhai, and Li Qing will be the prefect of Cangwu County."

Li Qing mused, the arrangements for the three counties have been completed, and the rest are the officers of the General's Mansion and the Sixth Division. The most important long history is Yan Zhengyi, who is in charge of the internal affairs and the Sixth Division, who oversees all government affairs, and Sima who assists in military affairs Fu Yulong is in charge, so the overall framework of the general's mansion can be regarded as finalized.

Outside the hall are officials at all levels waiting to be interviewed. The General’s Mansion is already equivalent to the governor’s office at this time. All government affairs of the three counties will be reported to this place, and all officials who surrendered will also be transferred to each other.

Li Qing had already summoned more than ten officials today, and he was a little tired. Looking at the list of people who asked to see him, they were all county magistrates who were about to take office.

After thinking about it for a moment, he said to the soldiers: "Notify, the county magistrate who is about to take office will be summoned together in the future. By the way, call Wang Zheng in."

Wang Zheng is in charge of the business department, and he is solely responsible for him. For the time being, Yan Zhengyi has not yet been responsible. Trade is the top priority of his next development. I wonder how Wang Zheng is doing now?
"Chen, Shang Si Wang Zheng sees the lord"

Li Qing smiled and said, "Get up."He stood up, stretched his waist, walked in front of Wang Zheng, and said, "Later, Yan Zhengyi and I will go out of the city to inspect the migration of the barbarians. You can go too."

"Yes"

Wang Zheng quickly agreed, the officials of the three counties didn't want to have more contact with the lord, as a courtier, they were afraid that they would not see the lord for a long time, otherwise, they would only get farther and farther away from the center of power.

After a hasty lunch, the group headed straight out of the city. The first stop was the racecourse, which was also the training base of the Pegasus Army. According to the Qing system, there were a total of 5000 people in the ten battalions of the first army. Currently, even half of the battalions were not enough.

Shi Hongyu rushed up to greet him, and before Li Qing could open his mouth, he complained directly: "My lord, Husi and his gang are too procrastinated, and there is no sign of the promised army and horse supply. They can only say that money is tight."

Li Qing frowned and asked, "Didn't I give Hu Si an approval note? Why haven't I started purchasing yet? What are they doing?"

Hu Cao had been arranged to deal with this matter long before the troops were dispatched to Hepu, and he had made repeated orders to explain the importance of this matter, but he did not expect it to be done well.

At present, most of the heads of the Sixth Division are formerly demoted, and Yan Zhengyi is in charge of it. He pays little attention to it. Now it seems that these people still have to beat them.

He said directly to Wang Zheng: "You are in charge of the business department, and you should know the responsibilities of the household department very well. From now on, you will also be the head of the household department."

"Thank you my lord"

Wang Zheng was overjoyed, there were indeed many opportunities to be with the lord. The business department and the household department had many overlapping responsibilities, and there was inevitably some friction between them.

He sneered secretly in his heart: "This is stupid. It's okay to procrastinate on other things. What the lord values ​​most now is the army. How dare you shirk on this? It's really reckless."

On the contrary, it was easier for him. This matter had to be resolved beautifully. My mind turned sharply, and suddenly my eyes lit up.

"My lord, I have a solution to the horse problem, and it's a northern horse"

Both Li Qing and Shi Hongyu looked at Wang Zheng in surprise. At present, military horses are selected from Jiaozhou horses. Jiaozhou horses are short and lack strength, so many trainings cannot be carried out. If they can get northern grassland horses, they can train real cavalry.

Shi Hongyu gasped and asked: "How can there be a northern horse?"
Wang Zheng replied: "I know a few tea-horse merchants. They trade tea bricks along the Shu Road. It should be no problem to bring some horses along the way. However, military horses have always been controlled by the imperial court. It is estimated that the number will not be too many."

"it is good"

Li Qing and Shi Hongyu admired almost at the same time, which made Wang Zheng very puzzled, isn't it just a few hundred war horses?Why are they so happy.

But he didn't know that Wuwei and Yizhou were only separated by Hanzhong. With Wuwei's strength and a little cooperation, might they not be able to get a war horse?
Li Qing had a happy expression on his face. At the beginning, he only thought that the two sides were separated by Yizhou, but he forgot about the commercial road. The merchants are used to this commercial road, and the checkpoints along the way have already been well-cooked. Who would have thought of bringing some horses to transport goods.

This matter has to be notified to Wuwei through the reincarnation disk, and there is no rush for the time being. After leaving the racecourse, the group came to Longchuan County. After the ghost disaster, a lot of people were lost here, and many fertile fields were abandoned. Therefore, the barbarians who were resettled were also most.

The magistrate of Longchuan County was named Long Yingtai. He used to serve as the deputy battalion officer in the army. He was discharged from the army due to a leg injury in the First World War in Nanhai County, which made it difficult for him to walk. Promoted to county magistrate.

The first stop was Dachuan Township, which was also one of the most serious areas of the last ghost disaster. Li Qing had passed by this place when he took office as chief secretary of Longchuan. The village was dilapidated.

Under the supervision of Xiangyong, many barbarian slaves are repairing earthen walls and building houses for the villagers. This is a system established by Sun Liang. All barbarian slaves must not be idle and must work all the time.

Now that the New Year is approaching, there is nothing to do in the fields, so these slaves are called up to repair the city walls and build houses, and the private schools and ancestral halls in the villages also start to be renovated after they have these slaves.

Visit almost every household at will, and find that almost every household has assigned slaves. They undertake almost most of the heavy work, so that the people can relax. After the spring, they will open up wasteland and cultivate land, and the lives of the people will be better. a lot of.

This is Xiangzheng coming to report that the meal has been prepared, and all adults are invited to eat.

Li Qing followed the village and came to his house. There are not many luxurious houses in the countryside, but they are clean and the few farmhouse flavors are also unique.

There is a barbarian woman serving her next to her. She is hardworking and capable, and she can already speak a few words of Chinese. Judging by the look of her clothes, she has not received too much criticism in this family.

The Xiangzheng beside him said gratefully: "My children have reached their thirties. Since the ghost disaster, the number of women has decreased. I am worried that I will not have a wife. If it is not for the kindness of the adults to bestow on the barbarians, I am afraid that my family will cut off the incense."

Li Qing smiled and said nothing, this is not a tyrannical government, the barbarians don't know etiquette, and life in the mountains is difficult, being able to integrate with the Han people is considered to be out of the barbarian habits, so that the three generations have completely integrated into it.

The people I have seen since I came to Dachuan Township all have increased luck and ruddy complexions. This is caused by the extraction of barbarian luck to make up for it. Looking at the whole rule from a distance, there is gray barbarian luck flowing in from the red and white luck. This is the bottom line plan.
