Chapter 732: Advance by leaps and bounds (2)

Chen Fei captured Huiran County in one day, and then continued to raise an army on the seventh day. The news of capturing Shantou County in one day spread throughout Yunzhou in an instant! Even the Zhoumu and the general of Zhenzhou who were confronting the city could not help but look at each other, and the rulers of the other eight counties also widened their eyes and opened their mouths and stood there. All the forces in Yunzhou, whether they were gangs, merchant alliances, or even some strong men, all looked at the southeastern area of ​​Yunzhou.

It’s no wonder that everyone reacts so fiercely. Anyone with a little ability knows how terrifying the administrative structure of the Qin Dynasty is. The area of ​​a county reaches more than 100,000 square kilometers, a county reaches one million square kilometers, and a state exceeds tens of millions of square kilometers! This is why the Qin court’s control is so weak that the prefectures and counties below do not directly raise flags to rebel. The territory is too big! Each county is like an independent kingdom, let alone counties and states. Since they are originally like emperors, why do they have to raise flags to rebel and cause trouble?

Everyone knows that this situation will last for a short time, but with the concern of all interested people, such a fragile rule has lasted for nearly a hundred years. Just when everyone thought that this fragile rule would continue, the students and officials were already accustomed to the situation where officials climbed to the state level at most, it suddenly broke out inexplicably that the military and political leaders of many states fought for the separate rule. Then, because of the chaos in the state, the counties below followed the chaos, and a feeling of a split black cloud over the city rushed forward.

However, because news of fighting for power and profits came everywhere, everyone began to get used to it. Anyway, the Qin Dynasty had been shaky for a long time, and it was normal at any time, that is, it was just a bad time to encounter it. So these people with a lot of heart are all aiming at the situation around them and around them, either being ambitious or speculators. Anyway, everyone has their own thoughts.

And these people who are interested also know that the best thing is to control the rights of the state city, and then through the huge population and strength of the state city, there is no need to fight, but you just need to force it to govern the counties and counties below. You either occupy the counties and counties, wait for the opportunity to speculate or directly loot the seclusion.

In the eyes of these people who are interested, only by controlling the prefectures and cities can we consider fighting for dominance in the world. It is too difficult for the counties below to achieve this goal. Because everyone knows that unless some counties with geographical advantages are pitifully small, the population of other counties is definitely not as small as the behemoth of the prefectures. Therefore, countless people who are interested put their work on various prefectures and cities, rarely focus on counties. Unless the geographical advantages and specialties of the county are too tempting, they will compete for such counties.

However, although they don’t take counties seriously, as long as they know that there are forces occupying more than two counties, they will naturally look at them. The area of ​​the county in Daqin is too large. One county is one million square kilometers, and two counties are two million square kilometers. If it is the county that is thousands of miles away in the border area, you may not care, but Yunzhou is in the south. Although it is not considered a central area, it is also a place with countless fertile land.

Like this force holding the black lotus flag, after occupying three counties, it has an average of three million square kilometers and a population of nearly 20 million. It can definitely be regarded as a big force! What shocked everyone even more is that this force can actually capture two counties within seven days. This speed is really scary!

You should know that the distance between counties and counties now probably takes a week to arrive. People occupy two counties in seven days? What’s the joke?! It takes this time to catch up with the fast horse, and the time to attack the city and occupy it? According to convention, there is no time to occupy a county without half a year. This is why when the Qin Dynasty set up administrative areas, Huizhou was ten times more than the county and ten times more than the county, because only by controlling the prefecture city can control the county, and as long as the county can control the county. Therefore, as long as the Qin Dynasty controlled all the prefecture cities in the world, the whole world would be controlled. If it weren’t for the problems of the central court itself, the prefecture city below would be impossible.

There is also another thing to pay attention to is that at the level of the county, there must be earth-level strong men, more or less, but there must be. If the opponent can quickly capture two counties, then the opponent may have a powerful master who can directly subdue the earth-level strong men, or may have directly bribed the earth-level strong men of these two counties, but the cost of being able to bribe the earth-level strong men is very high, so no matter what the reason, the black lotus power must pay attention to it.

Therefore, any forces that received the news sent their spies to the southeastern part of Yunzhou to inquire, or want to speculate, or be on guard, or try to win over. Anyway, spies with various tasks were rushing towards the territory controlled by Shen Fei.

Shen Fei controlled three counties, so he naturally became awesome. The surrounding counties, whether from Yunzhou or from Nanzhou, which was attached to Shen Fei, were all very alert. They either recruited soldiers and horses in a crazy way, or several forces colluded with each other to form an alliance to resist Shen Fei. Of course, there were also envoys to see whether Shen Fei was good or confrontational.

Although all kinds of annoying things suddenly came out, Shen Fei was not interested in chatting with these guys. He left them all to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to deal with them. If you have any questions, you will go to the head of the Sixth Academy of the Central Committee. Well, since occupying three counties, the number of county-level officials of the Sixth Academy of the Wenshan County was drawn out by Shen Fei to form the Sixth Academy of the Central Committee, and they were promoted by half a level, and the highest six people became officials at the department level.

That's right, Shen Fei has very tight restrictions on this official rank. Now the heads of the Sixth Courts in charge of the three counties are still the deputy department. Zhang Jian and the six others are the highest among officials. Similarly, with the central government, the heads of other departments have also been upgraded. For example, the heads of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are now at the same level as the heads of the sixth courts, and the heads of the three counties and sixth courts. But the heads of these departments are all desperate to show their hard work, because they know that the level of the central department is the highest at the ministerial level! Even Zhang Jian and the others are working hard, because they know that they have only climbed to the main department now, and the highest level of the country can reach the main country! Can you do it if you don't work hard? They are the heads of the Sixth Court of the Central Government! How come they have to work hard to show the ability of the central government, right?

The system formulated by Shen Fei played a rigorous and fast role, integrating and developing all aspects of the three counties at an incredible speed, especially these work has made rapid progress under the personal attention of Shen Fei, the lord of Shen Fei. Shen Fei was setting up all the work that could expand his spiritual consciousness, and then watched his spiritual consciousness grow slowly. At this speed, it would take more than half a year before he could liberate a little turtle.

Although Chen Fei felt very uncomfortable, he wanted to capture several counties immediately and even directly defeat the city. He knew that if he was really strong, it would be absolutely fine. Moreover, the moment he captured the city, he would be able to liberate a small turtle, but what about the latter? Needless to say, the system he formulated would collapse first, and all the original tyrants and gentry officials who had not been trained entered their own system. Then don’t think that it would be like the current one. And it would be even more troublesome when it stabilized. These old tyrants and gentry officials would definitely wrap their previous vines around their big tree, and then try their best to seize nutrition. If they want to deal with them, they would have to spend a lot of effort and would definitely be damaged.

This is still in government affairs, and the army is even more terrifying. If you directly occupy the city, you will naturally have to expand your army. Any messy person will be pulled into the army. Then there will be mountains in the army. Maybe officers will be forced to extort the troops to the top, and if there is a slight rectification, it will be another turmoil. As for the economy, it may also decline rapidly. With the expansion, the problem of unstable public security will definitely arise. Once the public security is unstable, there is no need to consider anything. You may have to put in Wenshan County, which has been built almost the same.

Once these problems occur, you may not say that your spiritual sense that you have worked hard to expand will shrink back. So what if you have a little turtle? The result is that you have to work hard to build it again? Since that's the case, it's better to wait and stop for a while, so that all parties can recover their vitality and make good preparations. Not to mention anything else, the minimum number of new civil servants must be trained, right?

Therefore, Chen Fei's energy was naturally concentrated on training civil servants. After Chen Fei controlled the three counties, the situation of the Chen Fei system was naturally announced in these three counties, so that everyone could understand what they needed to do if they wanted to do things under Shen Fei's command and how to get promoted. Although some families with big families gave Chen Fei a gift as usual, and also sent some family children to rely on civil servants, they did not send their direct children.

Chen Fei naturally knew why they were like this. First, they were unwilling to place bets so early. They should know that throwing their children in the direct line would be trapped on the same rope as Shen Fei. Second, they were dissatisfied with Chen Fei's rules, because Chen Fei stipulated that civil servants must start from the stockholders! Those officials before were not considered civil servants, all of them were the ministers who started from the Dragon. Now, the civil servants who were the first to be a stockholder in Wenshan County were promoted to half a level to the deputy section chiefs. Some of them were lucky and capable, and even became the chief section chiefs. In other words, only those who were recruited after conquering Huiran and Shantou counties could only start from the stockholder in aggrieved manner.

It’s not that no one suggested to Chen Fei that some talents should be given the level of a regular or deputy department, but Chen Fei snorted coldly: “Even if talents start from a stock staff member, they can climb to a high position in a very short time! There is no limit to how many years of qualifications are required to be promoted! Instead, they can be promoted as long as they make contributions! So why should I give them special cases? This is unfair to those civil servants who are willing to work at the grassroots level after being assessed! How can I take the role of the Sixth Academy without the experience of working at the grassroots level? Isn’t it the same as the previous officials? Relying on staff to handle official duties, he is only romantic, what should such an official do? So listen! From now on! All civil servants have to start from a stock staff member! No one is exceptional!”
