Chapter 879 Qingzhou Political Situation

Moreover, because of Qin Ge's reputation, Zheng He recruited 100,000 water bandits and all transferred to Yinlin Sailors. Now, the 200,000 water bands in Zhenhai, Le'an County, Weihai's two major navy divisions can compete with Liangshan's bandits in the water battle.

However, because there were no established warships, they suffered a great loss in fighting against the Liangshan Navy. In the water battle, the ship was just the life of the navy.

When he was guiding Le'an County, Qin Ge had already made Man Chong, and Zheng He chose a good port near the mouth of the Yellow River and began to build a dock for his merits in the country.

Qin Ge has the drawings of the production of the Longgui Zhenhai Ship in Goryeo. However, the production technology of this ship is complex and expensive. Even the Li Dynasty has only a few ships. With Qin Ge's current financial resources and technology, it is impossible to manufacture it.

Moreover, because there are no ship-made drawings, the current dock can only produce ordinary civilian ships. In addition to making fishing boats for fishermen, warships are transformed based on fishing boats. The combat effectiveness is simply incomparable to the Liangshan bandits' loach fleet.

The flying boat has a small draft, and can only take about twenty people, which is similar to the draft of ordinary fishing boats. It cannot fight long distances like the iron-armored loach boat.

However, in the water battle in a county of Le'an County, the combat distance of the flying wave ship is more than enough.

This ship is sharp, thin, narrow and long, with a sailboat like a bird's wing. When it runs, the sail can absorb wind-based power and is as fast as an arrow. It is better than the word "fast" and can be called a weapon for combat in the offshore and river naval forces.

Moreover, this ship is a silver warship with relatively simple production technology. The free-collar dock has just been built and the technical level can also be used to make warships of this level. With the large-scale production of this ship, a group of ships with high technical proficiency can be trained!

To take a step back, the combat capability of the Flying Waves is much stronger than the warships transformed by fishing boats. If hundreds of Flying Waves can be equipped with the Le'an Water Army, they will definitely be able to compete with the Liangshan bandits in water battles.

Moreover, major forces such as Yanhuang City, Xuanyuan City, and the Qinglong City of the Oriental Family are vigorously developing their naval forces. China's technology for making docks is already behind, and the Tianpin docks owned by Qin Ge is the only one in the Chinese Civilization Zone.

All forces lack high-quality warships. If this ship is mass-produced, Qin Ge will definitely make a big profit!

The Liangshan power is too strong now, which makes Qin Ge almost breathless. This battle in Guangxian City commanded by Xu Shu was also caused by the full advance of Liu Bei's army, which made the Liangshan bandits in a dilemma, so they ceased to fight with Qin Ge.

If Liu Bei had strong support, Qin Ge would quell the Qingzhou bandits and generals would be like a tiger, and even Guan Zhong and others would suggest making friends with Liu Bei.

Seeing Qin Ge revealing his thoughts, Mi Zhu, as a negotiator, naturally knew that Qin Ge was weighing the pros and cons and said: "If the Marquis can make this happen, my Mi Trading Company can provide five million dans of grain to Taishan County at a price of 20% off every year. Free Trade Company can give priority to trading in Chengyang County. Moreover, Xuande Gong learned from Zuo Ci Zhenren, who is good at refining weapons and is famous in the fairy world. My Lord is willing to donate the treasure, Five Elements Holy Armor given by Zuo Ci Zhenren to the general!"

As he said that, he took out five sets of armor from his sleeve. Qin Ge saw that the five sets of armor flashed in his eyes. These five sets of armor actually were five spiritual weapons, and the five holy beasts contained in the hood contained the souls of the five great holy beasts, such as the blue dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, black twilight, and qilin.

The difficulty of making armor is far greater than that of weapons, and only Zuo Ci has made such a skill to forge such a spiritual weapon, and because it contains the soul of a holy beast, it can grow with the master!

Finally, Mi Zhu took out a fire-colored soul bead and said, "This is the Tiangang Demon Star of Zhu Tong, the leader of Liangshan bandits. It is a fire-type general soul. The martial soul of Tianman Star contains General Guan's will. His exclusive weapon, the Huanglong Yanyue Sword. I heard that General Qin's younger brother practiced fire-type martial arts and used Yanyue Sword, which allowed General Guan to teach all his unique skills!"

Qin Ge took a deep breath and said, "If Xuande is willing to protect Qingzhou with me, Qin will be reluctant to ask for it, okay! I will recommend it to the general. As for whether it can succeed, I cannot guarantee it!"

Mi Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this: "General Guan was staying here for a while. This Tiangang Demon Star can be used as a deposit and inherited by General Qin Jixiao. You can also follow General Guan to practice swords. Whether or not this Demon Star is considered to be the kindness of Duke Xuande and the Marquis!"

Qin Ge nodded when he heard this and stopped refusing.

...

Beihai County City, at this time, the entire city has become the base camp of Liangshan. The lights in the entire city are dim after night. Occasionally, the bandits in Liangshan gather together to drink and eat meat. The entire county city has become a mountain village for bandits and no longer have the prosperous scene of the past.

In the prefect's mansion, Song Jiang threw the information in his hand to the ground very angrily. Wu Yong walked in and picked up the information from the ground. As spring plowing approached, Song Jiang also learned the lessons of the past two years and encouraged the people controlled by the Liangshan forces to farm and produce grain.

However, after the plunder of Liangshan bandits, there was no complete village in the area occupied by Liangshan bandits. Because Qin Ge has vigorously rebuilt villages and towns recently, encouraged military and civilians to plow the fields, and a series of measures to benefit farmers.

This led to many people in the Liangshan bandits migrating their families to cities under the Qingzhou Governor's Office, and even some powerful people with armed forces migrated with their families.

According to incomplete statistics, there were more than 3 million people in Qingzhou who ran to Qin Ge's rule. What annoyed Song Jiang the most was that the bandits in Liangshan began to appear continuously, and many bandits fled to Qin Ge's territory.

"Qin Ge took advantage of the truce with us to clear out the bandits and clans under his rule. Now he is working hard to develop farming, and the territory under his rule has quickly recovered its stability. Moreover, because the bandits under his rule have been pacified, he can withdraw troops and concentrate on guarding various barriers and dangerous places. Now it is becoming more and more difficult to attack their territory under his rule!" Wu Yong regretted Song Jiang and quickly persuaded him. After all, the military orders were very hurtful of morale.

Song Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "The people under our rule are now forcibly intercepted by me, and they use swords to plow and farm the fields. The wasteland is not satisfactory. Now all the people are thinking about running towards Qin Ge. It's so damn evil! I think if Qin Ge is so big and strong, it will be even more difficult for us to deal with him!"

Wu Yong stroked his beard and said, "Now Qin Ge and Liu Bei have joined forces, showing a faint horn-pacing momentum. Moreover, in Le'an County, Qin Ge threw into the Wuwan Rangers, Changshui Camp and Nether Wolf Cavalry three cavalry units to sweep the bandits entrenched in various places. Their combat effectiveness was amazing. After the bandits were eliminated, the counties and towns and hills we occupied were isolated. Li Jun and Mu Hong were afraid of being defeated one by one, so they reduced their troops and conformed to the non-aggression agreement between the elder brother and Qin Ge. Now 70% of the counties and towns in Le'an County are in the hands of Qin Ge!"

"Damn it! This is simply a disaster for raising a tiger. Qin Ge was already awe-inspiring in Qingzhou, and now he is widely polite. I heard that he and his troops went to the fields to cultivate land, build houses for the people, and clear the silt of rivers. The people of Qingzhou respected him like a god and were willing to submit to him. Moreover, a large number of refugees from Taishan County moved back to Qingzhou. Now the people's livelihood under his rule has been recovered quickly. He is not like the Han court and bandit forces in the past. If he is allowed to make it bigger, there will be endless troubles!" Song Jiang, as a saint-level political celebrity, keenly observed the changes under Qin Ge's rule. At this time, his eyes were full of murderous aura, and it seemed that he wanted to attack Qin Ge.

"We are the most important thing about being an adopted son in the green forest. If our elder brother openly tore up the alliance, he may be untrustworthy in the world. Moreover, it is spring plowing now. Even if we capture Qin Ge's territory, we will only get tens of millions of refugees. It is better to use the tricks and wait for them to attack again when the autumn harvest is coming. Moreover, Qin Ge has built a framework for people's livelihood, as long as we take over, and then let those people continue to maintain production, then we will have a granary of energy!" Wu Yong stroked his beard, and a touch of sinisterness appeared in his eyes.

Song Jiang smiled his hands and said, "You mean to borrow chickens to lay eggs, build nests, and then we will occupy the magpie's nest. This plan is very wonderful! Very wonderful! Let Qin Ge be happy for a few days first!"

...

On this day, the town where Qin Gebaozhao stationed was celebrating the establishment of Xinmin Town. At this time, ordinary houses had been built in the entire town. Although the streets were covered with dirt roads, they were neatly arranged.

Today is the day when Xinmin Town was officially announced. The refugees moved into their new houses happily. After Qin Ge led 10,000 tigers to fight day and night, buildings had already been flat on the wastelands, fields, ditches and fields were all neatly arranged.

However, due to lack of resources and poverty, Qin Ge made a mobilization speech and told all villagers that a good day has begun now. As long as everyone works hard and is willing to work hard, they will celebrate together after this autumn harvest.

Qin Ge was celebrating the establishment of the new town with the villagers. At this time, Xun Chen brought a group of scholars in a carriage. Although these people were in chaos in Qingzhou, they were extremely well-dressed. These were the wealthy families of Qingzhou.

During the war, they led their tribe members to build mountain forts and local armed forces. The tribe survived in this chaotic era. These gentry families were very xenophobic. They were not only hostile to the bandits, but also very cautious about Qin Ge.

If Wei Xie hadn't taken the lead, I'm afraid these guys would still be watching. Qin Ge was grateful to Wei Xie for helping him in time and directly expressed his support as the county magistrate of Le'an County. Not only did he restore Wei Xie's official position, but he also expressed his support as Wei Yue as the county magistrate. Many Wei family members began to enter politics, which made other gentry families look very jealous.

Qin Ge made great compromises and concessions to these local armed forces, restored their privileges, and made concessions to all the land, minerals and resources they occupied, allowing them to manage themselves, as long as they pay taxes according to the Dahan tax rate.

Originally, these gentry families were fighting fiercely with the fierce attitude of watching the fire from the other side of the river, and watched them kill each other without help.

Now Qin Ge has initially restored the rule of the court and issued an order to seek talents, recruiting scholars from various counties and towns to serve as officials. This is the policy formulated by Guan Zhong to win over local gentry and powerful people. In addition to the lobbying of Xun Chen and Wei Yue during this period, the thoughts of many local powerful armed forces began to become active.

Xun Chen brought everyone into the villages and towns. When a group of representatives of the gentry leaders saw Qin Ge wearing a commoner and sat with the people, they were all very surprised.

However, the names of people, the shadows of trees, and representatives of the gentry came forward to pay their respects. Some of the elderly were even excited and burst into tears. Xun Chen introduced them to Qin Ge, but unexpectedly, most of the visitors were famous scholars from Qingzhou.

There was Liangmao, a famous scholar who had just brought tens of thousands of people in the tribe to migrate here, there were Zhang Zheng, a famous scholar who gathered local forces to repel the Yellow Turban bandits and Liangshan bandits many times, as well as the world-famous Confucian scholar Bing Yuan, and many representatives of the Qingzhou family.

There was also a familiar figure, which was Ni Heng who had not seen for a long time. At this time, Ni Heng was wearing a coarse cloth robe. According to Xun Chen, he fled from Beihai County with Liang Mao.

At this time, Ni Heng lost his previous arrogance. Seeing Qin Ge lowering his head and silently speaking, Ni Heng was revenge by the children of the Qin family for wanton attacking and annihilation and insulting Qin Ge.

Later, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled and Kong Rong became the prefect in Beihai. After hearing about Kong Rong's reputation for a long time, Ni Heng defected to Kong Rong. Unexpectedly, a few days after a good life, the bandits in Liangshan broke out.

Kong Rong abandoned the city and fled to Liu Bei, while Ni Heng fled everywhere and could only rely on Liang Mao to live in vain.
