What greeted Li Po's return was a wedding.
Yuen Long's second brother Yuan Sheng brought him letters from home, and he finally got his wish and was able to marry a beautiful woman.
As he was related to Li Po by marriage, the wedding ceremony was much grander than Li Po's original marriage.
In fact, this marriage has been waiting for Li Po to come back.
After Li Po decided on a return date, he quickly chose an auspicious day, and it was no surprise that Li Po became an elder. An elder brother is like a father.
As for Yuan Sheng, he can only take a step back.
There was no way, that was what the elder had decided, and Li Po's current status was already extraordinary and he was one of the few in the world. It was natural for him to sit there and receive a few bows from the newcomers.
Of course, this wedding is not as full of jokes as Li Po did back then. Almost all the best people in Mayi have gathered in Yunnei. If we can't find a few people who can successfully organize a wedding, then what will happen?
It's called a ghost.
Overall, Yuen Long is in a good time.
After the wedding, Li Po took a short rest and immediately led his army to Mayi County.
Before leaving, he issued his first decree as the military commander-in-chief of Daizhou, appointing Yuen Long as the magistrate of Yunnei County and the general of the Heng'an Town Army. He left a thousand elite troops and ordered Yuen Long to recruit 3,000 more people.
A total of four thousand men and horses guarded Yunnei City.
He also ordered the school captain Duan Fang to concurrently serve as the Yunnei County captain to help Yuen Long guard his hometown in Yunei.
It seems that these two people are not high-ranking officials, especially Duan Fang, the school captain, who has become Yunnei County Lieutenant. It seems that he has been demoted and appointed, but Yunnei is different now.
The population has exceeded 200,000, and it can be said to be the largest city in the three counties of Daizhou after Yanmen. Such a top-heavy situation will definitely need to be balanced in the future.
As the place where Li Po started his career, Yunnei has extraordinary significance. Those who can serve as county magistrates and county captains here will be Li Po's confidants, and their official positions will naturally be higher than elsewhere.
After leaving all matters in Yunnan to Yuen Long, Li Po himself took his wife and a mighty army and went south.
The first stop is Shenwu.
The dilapidated Shenwu is restoring its old outlook. Tens of thousands of Youzhou people have filled Shenwu City, bringing countless fresh breaths to Shenwu City.
What maintains the operation of this city is no different from Yunnei, it is herding cattle and sheep.
The pastures near Shenwu are being divided more intensively. Cattle and sheep are all transferred from Yunnei, and there really can't be too many people staying here. When Shenwu built the city, it was actually more like a transit from the county town to Yunnei.
land.
Shenwu City is now very busy.
The people are busy repairing and tidying up their houses, the officials are busy registering the people and distributing pasture, and the cities also need to be repaired and reinforced.
Everything was in dire straits, and the former Yunnei County Magistrate and County Lieutenant were extremely busy after receiving this unfortunate task.
But there is a pie hanging in front of him. The vacancies of Cao Cao in Mayi are far from being filled. In front of the county magistrate, there is a seat waiting for him in Mayi. As for the county magistrate, he only needs to restore Shenwu City. As a
Cao Guan is also easy to do.
Li Po only stayed in Shenwu for one day and made a rough inspection around Shenwu. After hearing the county magistrate talk about the gains and losses in the immigration process, he led his troops to Mayi City.
Before leaving, he summoned the Shenwu officials and said: "Although the people of Youzhou are from outside, they are the same as our Daizhou. There are many strong men in the land of Youyan. I hope you can comfort them and promote their martial arts."
, suppress their disorderly behavior, remember, what I want is not a city of sheep, what I want is Youyan’s powerful soldiers..."
"You also need to remember that civilians and soldiers may be divided into regions and ethnic groups, but you must not be so biased. Seek justice in your conduct, be honest and dignified, and never attempt to kill unless it is absolutely necessary.
The heart of majesty."
Everyone said yes with awe.
The next day, Li Po led his army from Shenwu to Mayi.
Chen Xiaoyi, the governor of Yanmen, did not miss his words and was already waiting in Mayi City.
When the two met at this time, Chen Xiaoyi had no doubts anymore and acted as if he were a subordinate, because at this time Li Po, the commander-in-chief of Daizhou's march, had already lived up to his reputation.
Su Dan also came. At this time, he looked dark and thin, as if he had suffered a lot, but his energy and energy were completely different from when he arrived in Yunnei.
For more than a year, he has not been idle, sorting out Loufan's household registration, forcing large households in Loufan to release their slaves, and allocating farmland and pasture for cattle and sheep. In the process, his and Bu Qun's hands were stained with blood.
.
Moreover, both of them were trying their best to control the food prices in Loufan. In the second half of the Thirteen Years of Daye, truckloads of food were delivered to Loufan, and the two anxious Loufan chief officials finally breathed a sigh of relief.
.
If the food is no longer available, the two of them can only lead the troops back to Mayi. Loufan, who has run out of food, can only be reduced to the hell of pagodas. The two of them are not mentally prepared to live and die with the people of the same place. At the critical moment
By that time, both of them had already begun to pack their bags and run away.
Yanmen was in a similar situation to them. Chen Xiaoyi had no intention of running away, but wanted to show his goodwill to Jinyang and threw herself into the arms of Li Yuan.
While everyone was hesitating, the food and grass from Youzhou finally arrived.
The first batch of grain that arrived was the largest, and the loss was also the most alarming, reaching almost a third to a half, but it solved the urgent needs of Loufan, Yanmen, and even Mayi.
The loss of the food that arrived later dropped suddenly, because time was much easier and manpower began to become more abundant. Loss was inevitable, but it would not reach such a distressing level.
At the beginning of the winter of the thirteenth year of Daye, the people who had migrated from Youzhou gradually entered Yanmen and Loufan counties.
Su Dan and Bu Qun were naturally extremely busy.
After Chen Xiaoyi received the news that Li Po had moved the people of Youzhou to fill Daizhou, he sighed, obviously he couldn't do such a thing.
Afterwards, he immediately ordered people to repair various cities in Yanmen County.
When the Turks invaded, most of the more than 40 cities in Yanmen were destroyed and reduced to ghosts. After that, five or six were restored one after another. However, with the population greatly reduced, it would be impossible to restore the old view in a short time.
But once the people of Youzhou settled in Yanmen, the recovery process accelerated.
Of course, what makes Chen Xiaoyi more painful is that he cannot go all out to do this, because people in Jinyang may be staring at Yanmen.
Nowadays, everyone knows the situation in the north of Jin. The direction of Daizhou and Jinyang are inseparable, and it is difficult to distinguish between friends and foes.
Maybe at some point, everyone will fall out. Since the choice has been made before, Chen Xiaoyi will not give Jinyang's Li Yuanji an opportunity.
If it weren't for the lack of military strength, he would have wanted to capture Fenyang Palace City and use it as a pass to the south of Yanmen.
By the time Li Po returned to the army in the fourteenth year of Daye, the population of Yanmen was almost the same as that at the beginning of the eleventh year of Daye.
This obviously put great pressure on Yanmen.
Chen Xiaoyi has been an official for many years. He is not as busy as Su Dan and Bu Qun, but he is still bent down due to pressure, his back is hunched, and his hair has turned white.
If this were a normal time, this rough immigration process would almost certainly trigger a wave of civil unrest, but in these troubled times, the needs of the people have also been reduced to a minimum.
After the arduous journey, the people of Youzhou, who were almost dying, quickly built new homes all over Yanmen with little need for government supervision.
By the spring of Daye's fourteenth year, Yanmen had become a large construction site, and various cities and towns were being restored. Yanmen and officials from outside Youzhou were working hard to make this process more orderly.
At the same time, spring plowing cannot be delayed.
Therefore, Yanmen at this time can be said to be full of vitality, but of course, it is also very chaotic.
But there is an old saying that goes well: when the world is in chaos, the people want peace.
After years of fighting back and forth, those ambitious people are still fighting for each other and refuse to give up, but as ordinary people, they all just want to live a stable life.
This is also the main reason why there were not many riots when the people of Youzhou came to Daizhou.
They were tired and naturally resentful, but as long as the Daizhou officials could show enough kindness to prevent them from starving to death or freezing to death, then these common people who were ups and downs in the war would be silent.
He endured the pain of leaving his homeland.
At this time, one call and a hundred responses will definitely never happen again.
No matter how short of a memory a person has, after witnessing the stories of many families being destroyed and their lives being destroyed, they would not want to follow some heroic uprising and send the whole family to the Lord of Hell.
This is actually a manifestation of people's peace of mind. Perhaps only facts can make people understand why it is better to be a peace dog than a person in troubled times.
Therefore, Chen Xiaoyi and Su Dan, who are facing a lawsuit, are the ones who miss Li Po the most.
There are too many things that they want to leave to the Daizhou Marching Director, and there are too many problems that require him to solve and make decisions.
Li Po thought well, but when he returned to Mayi, the thing he faced was actually one thing: how to better resettle the immigrants from Youzhou so that everyone could settle down and have enough food in the fourteenth year of Daye.
If you want to enter a virtuous circle in the future, you must do this well at the beginning.
This night, the Mayi County Sheriff's Mansion was very lively.
Wang Lu, the Prime Minister of Mayi County, is here. He is in a good mood. After experiencing great disasters in the past few years and losing the support of the Jinyang Wang family, this man has completely abandoned the sourness of the literati. He bows his head when it is time to bow his head.
Never hesitate when it’s time to run away, and never refuse when it’s time to do something.
Instead, things took a turn for the worse, and he gained a good official reputation in Mayi.
While acting as the governor of Mayi, he appeased the people of Mayi and resettled the immigrants from Youzhou. He did everything in a decent manner. His daughter married Li Po's sworn brother Luo Shixin, so he came to the banquet today with extraordinary confidence.
