Chapter 826: He Jin's Winning
The Tiger in the Imperial Palace was the title given to Huo Qubing by Emperor Wu of Han. This title means that Qin Ge is not under the control of the general and is under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.
In the history of the Han Dynasty, this title was generally given to the General of the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army, which is the General of the Imperial Guard. However, due to the revival of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the position of lieutenant who was in charge of the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army was revoked. In addition, with the weakening of the royal family, the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army was commanded by the honorary commander Jinwu, and now the eunuch Jian Shuo is appointed as the chief of Jinwu.
The emperor first enthroned Qin Ge as the captain of Changshui, and now he was successfully appointed as the tiger under the imperial guards. Is there any plan?
Just as the court officials were speculating randomly, Lu Zhi stood up and said, "Before the three armies moved, food and grass were first. Qingzhou has become a scorched earth with no food to eat. Qin Ge was ordered to go to the expedition. The problem of food and grass must be solved! I suggest that Jizhou will pay 1.5 million dan of grain every year, Yanzhou will pay 700,000 dan of grain every year, and Xuzhou will pay 700,000 dan of grain every year. The court will coordinate from the other states to transport 2.5 million dan of grain every year, and supply 5.4 million dan of grain to Qingzhou every year, which can barely support a million troops. Otherwise, a good wife will not cook without rice. Qin Ge, who has no food and grass, is a tiger without teeth!"
Lu Zhi’s food and grass budget is based on the fiscal budgets of each state, and the logistics of supplying Qinge food and grass is more than enough.
The major gentry could accept Lu Zhi's food and grass supply plan. From the information they obtained, Qin Ge had more than 300,000 elite soldiers, Cao Cao's more than 300,000, as well as more than 200,000 elite cavalry from Karasuma and Baekje, as well as an unknown number of evolvers' troops. Even if the states support it, it would be difficult to support such a huge army's food and grass!
Of course, the stronger Qin Ge's troops are now, the more beneficial it is to these great Han gentry. After the court's consultation, all tributes in Qingzhou were temporarily reduced before the Qingzhou bandits were quarantined.
All the money, grain and treasury income in Qingzhou was allocated by Qin Ge himself, and each state provided Qin Ge with a million troops of food and grass every year. This was the first time in recent years that the meeting, which I thought was to be tense, was held so smoothly. All the officials of the court happily went out to the court.
Liu Yan and Liu Biao went out of the court together and saw Liu Biao's face full of question marks.
Liu Yan smiled with a scheming smile and said, "Are you still worried about Qin Ge's title marquis? You must know that if you drive a tiger and swallow a wolf, you must let this tiger work hard, so that it will be even more ferocious! Do you really think Qin Ge can destroy the Qingzhou bandits? There are tens of millions of bandits there, and all the people are bandits. Even if millions of troops go, they cannot make a big wave! Jiao He, Kong Rong and others are not talented in the world. They can't move in Qingzhou. Qin Ge's men and horses are not enough for those bandits to get stuck in the gaps. Even if Xiang Yu is really reborn, even if the millions of bandits stand and let him kill, they will have to kill for more than ten years! Those old foxes are in a dark place! Now the higher they hold Qin Ge, the light of his merits will gradually fade over time. If they pursue Qin Ge's failure to suppress the bandits and the wall falls and everyone pushes them, the more fierce they will fall!"
When Liu Biao heard this, he was a little scared. Although he had little contact with Qin Ge, he often heard rumors about him that such a loyal and brave hero who could fight was just a tool in the eyes of these old foxes in the court. After his value was exhausted, he would give up without hesitation.
Liu Yan patted Liu Biao's shoulder and said meaningfully: "This is power trick! Young man, you are in charge of the country now. You must remember that anyone should become your tool. If you don't like it, just change it. Never act like a tool, as you will die without a place to bury it!"
After saying that, Liu Yan slowly left with his hands behind his back, leaving Liu Biao who was stunned in front of Weiyang Palace.
...
The army traveled for more than a month and arrived at the border of Jizhou from Youbeiping. Then, after traveling for nearly a month, we returned to Jizhou Prefecture, without saying a word.
News that Qin Ge was awarded the title of Champion Marquis, General of the Envoy, and Governor of Qingzhou had spread like wildfire.
When the Yuan brothers and other generals heard that Qin Ge was so crazy, they wanted to go to Qingzhou's dragon and tiger den to fight to the death.
Qin Ge's rewards were really rewarded with his life, and they really couldn't envy him.
Qin Ge's account has initially been granted official titles according to his merits. Tian Feng was a deputy leader of Qingzhou, Xu Shu served as the military officer of Qingzhou, Chen Yuan served as the county magistrate, Man Chong served as the county magistrate of Le'an, and also served as the meritorious officer of Qingzhou, Mao Jie served as the prime minister of Qi, Yu Jin served as the captain of Qi, and Zhao Yun served as the captain of Jinan!
Others such as Liao Hua, Sun Guan, Qin Jiwu, Deng Zhi, Sima Ju, etc. were appointed as county magistrates, such as Liu Pi, Qin Jizong, Qin Jiben, Han Hao, Lu Weihuang, etc., serving as county magistrates, Qin Jixue, Qin Jili and other scholars served as county magistrates.
Other soldiers were respectively enthroned as county magistrates, county magistrates, and town chiefs according to their merits. Many soldiers were promoted and promoted to 100-rank, sergeant chiefs, and almost half of the soldiers of the expeditionary army were promoted.
Moreover, in order to improve the treatment of soldiers of the expeditionary army, Qin Ge created a position of ten thousand men and chief of the ten thousand men according to the experience of later generations. The salary received by soldiers is equivalent to that of county magistrates and town chiefs. Although there is no specific official position, the treatment of soldiers is greatly improved.
Although a lot of military expenditure has been increased, no matter how difficult it is, the soldiers who fight bloody battles cannot be difficult.
However, from this enthronement, the serious and abnormal development of talents under Qin Ge was greatly exposed. Most of them were military generals and few civil officials.
Of course, there are Jin Deman, Guan Zhong, Hei Chi Changzhi, Yingzhao, Qianzhao, Tadun, Wei Sanniang, Zang Shun, Chai Jin, Yang Hua, etc., who have not been enthroned for various reasons, can only let them perform corresponding duties first, and then they will be promoted and promoted after Qin Ge gained a foothold in Qingzhou.
When they were about to arrive at Jizhou Prefecture, Jiangkui and two other saints came to say goodbye to Qin Ge and took away the Mo family's children. The Mo family's power in the world of cultivation was alongside Taoism, but Mo family, like Confucianism, was a world-governing study.
However, Confucianism and Legalism emphasize power governance, while the Mohist philosophy is people's autonomy, which is somewhat similar to modern guilds and guilds, advocating that people unite and confront the rulers and fight for their own interests.
"Boxi! This is the White Tiger Order of the Mo family. If we have any use to us in the future, we can come to me with this token! The hero violated the ban with martial arts, and the authentic Confucianism and Taoism are incompatible with us. We will not go to Jizhou!" After Jiangkui said goodbye to Qin Ge, he then disappeared from the border of Jizhou with his Mo family disciples.
The Mohist scholar's study of governing the world is still very desirable, but these Mohist talents have gone extremes in their thinking and pursued either black or white, which is in opposition to Confucianism. Although the Mohist disciples are very united, they are naturally very resistant to the system. Qin Ge originally wanted to incorporate it, but now he is unable to protect himself in Qingzhou, so he can only gain a foothold to make plans for the future.
Qin Ge turned his head and looked at the Taoist Yang who was holding the whisk in surprise. Because of the relationship between Wujiao and the Yellow Turban bandits, Qin Ge kept his distance from the Yellow Turban Dao lineage.
In addition, the disciples of the Yellow Turban Dao regarded themselves as the first sect of the Xuanmen Sect in the Immortal Realm, and were all above the top. If Qin Ge wanted to suppress the expeditionary army, he had to suppress the Yellow Turban Dao.
Now that the appearance of Taoist Yang really surprised Qin Ge. After all, the Yellow Turban Dao lineage didn't like him. Qin Ge couldn't help but be alert when he thought of the order of the Five Thunder Heavenly Master of the Xuanmen treasure in his hands.
Seeing Qin Ge, Jiangkui and Xuan Hao having a good chat, he looked at him with vigilance.
Taoist Yang suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "General Qin, the power I have expressed in the expeditionary army is no less than Jiangkui and Xuan Hao. General Qin really looks down on me so much!"
Qin Ge quickly raised his hand and said, "You are the noble immortal of Xuanmen, I am just an ordinary person..."
Taoist Yang raised his hand and stopped Qin Ge and said, "I saved your clan brother that day. During the war between Xuelang Castle and the country, I used Taoist talisman water to save the soldiers. The development of our fairy world's Taoist dynasty must be dependent on ordinary regimes. The world of great struggle is coming. I hope to promulgate the Taoist sect under your regime!"
Qin Ge looked at the woman in front of him. This woman acted without any loss. Even the sinister and vicious snake Taoist was obedient in front of her. The most terrifying thing in the world was this impeccable person.
"Don't worry, General Qin, I am different from my senior brothers. I will abide by the laws and regulations. Cooperating with me will definitely be a win-win outcome!" Taoist Yang bowed to Qin Ge, and then turned into a golden light and disappeared.
Qin Ge looked at the departure of Taoist Yang and fell into silence.
...
There was nothing to say along the way, Qin Ge and others led the army to be welcomed by the people of Jizhou along the way. Compared with Youzhou, which has no rooster crowing thousands of miles away, Jizhou was not invaded by war, so the prosperity remained.
Now that foreign invasion has been repelled, Jizhou has restored its former prosperity, but you can still see refugees fleeing from the streets.
With the people's food, jams and cheers, the army passed through the township and county, and the gongs and drums were loud along the way, and the crowds were crowded with people. Everyone was treated by heroes to Jizhou Prefecture.
Outside the Jizhou Prefecture City, General He Jin brought the guard of honor given to him by the emperor ten miles away to welcome the triumphant generals.
Qin Ge and others heard the inquiry in advance, so they dismounted ten miles in advance and led the army outside the Changting Pavilion on foot.
The sermon drums were sounding and colorful flags were waving, and the momentum was like a rainbow. General He Jin was wearing armor and bloated body, accompanied by a group of noble officials in Jizhou, sitting upright in the general's chariot.
Yuan Shao, Qin Ge and others walked forward quickly, walked to the pavilion, and knelt down to General He Jin.
He Jin was so proud that he walked off the chariot and praised the generals. He took Qin Ge's hand, pulled him onto the general's chariot, and rode with him in the general's chariot. He was extremely favored for a moment.
He Jin's actions of favoring Qin Ge and neglecting all the generals made Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others look a little gloomy.
He Jin sat on a chariot with a narrow space, while Qin Ge stood aside with some restraint. He Jin pointed at the crowds of people outside the street, and kept cheering at the general's chariot, enjoying the worship of thousands of people: "Boxi! This is a triumphal ceremony specially prepared for you. What do you think?"
Qin Ge and Jindeman were in tune with each other. At this time, Jindeman was lying on the swing of the fairy nest, holding a ruler in his hand, closing his eyes and gently shaking his head.
Longya, which had grown a circle under the swing, was lying on the ground with a serious expression, racking her brains to recite the Analects of Confucius. Her voice was still loud and harsh, but she could speak Chinese fluently. The ancient Chinese memorized the words with a straight and round look.
Jin Deman, on the other hand, communicated with Qin Ge intently and was helping Qin Ge deal with He Jin.
Qin Ge showed fear and fear at the reminder of Jinderman: "Thank you for your kindness, how dare you take credit for the last general!"
He Jin was very satisfied with Qin Ge's respectful attitude. He also asked what he was most worried about: "How confident is Bo Xi to destroy the Qingzhou bandits!"
Qin Ge was silent for a moment and said, "It depends on how long the court has given me?"
He Jin was surprised when he heard this, "What do you say about Bo Xi?"
Qin Ge said with his fist: "The General is clear. At present, the imperial court has hardly sent out a soldier. It is entirely due to the brothers under my command. It is very different from the forces of the bandit suppression in Qingzhou. Therefore, the bandit suppression in Qingzhou can only fight wits but not strength! As long as I give enough time, I will definitely pacify Qingzhou!"
Hearing that Qin Ge was so confident and did not speak nonsense, he seemed to be confident, He Jin said a little calmly: "Now this stormy man is supported by me. This time the emperor will give me nine tins and be granted my duke. He was attacked and annihilated by many villains. Boxi, you are my recommendation, and many people regard us as one. You are not bad. If the bandit suppression takes a long time, those villains will definitely jump out and slander you! The Empress and I want to hear about it, how long will it take for you to pacify Qingzhou!"
He Jin was granted the title of Jiuxi by the emperor, which caused a stir in the court. However, because he recommended Qin Ge to conquer Qingzhou, many geniuses who were preparing to unite and threw themselves into the trap, so this time the title of Jiuxi was considered a smooth journey, so He Jin valued Qin Ge even more.
Qin Ge was silent for a moment and clasped his fists and said, "Five years! Qin is willing to issue a military order. Within five years, Qingzhou will definitely restore the imperial control!"
Although the five years have been a bit long, the great man has no choice at the moment. He Jin was quite satisfied with this time and said: "Okay! We will limit it to five years, and there is no need to issue military orders or something. I fully believe in Boxi. The Empress and I will give you five years. You can do it. If you are not convinced, the Empress and I will support you. If you don't accept it, let him lead troops to suppress the rebellion. I can't cure these wastes!"
After saying that, He Jin approached Qin Ge and whispered: "Now Liu Yan, Liu Biao and others all have their opinions on me. The emperor will only be in the past few years... If there is any change in the capital by then, Bo Xi, you..."
Qin Ge hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said, "My brothers and I were promoted by the general. I am willing to go through fire and water for the general, and I will never refuse to die!"
