Since the beginning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it has been one of the important measures of the new emperor. He wants to recruit talents in this way, although it is also very likely to recruit some people for other princes or other forces.
But he is still the one who has the advantage. Does anyone else have a noble status?
Or can the things given by others be compared with the things given by him?
Three years ago, he held the Zhongqie Autumn Festival, which brought countless talents to the New Deal, especially the force. On the one hand, officials were very important in the Daqian Dynasty, but the value of force was even more important.
If the new emperor has one or two God of War powers in his hands, all the princes in the world will have to use their power obediently. Only those who are at the God of War level can feel how powerful they are.
It's a pity that a strong man with a martial god level, that is, a strong man with a golden body, has not appeared for a long time. It seems that they all disappeared within a certain period of time.
The two powerful men with golden bodies that the emperor now knows are not in this world, but have gone to another world, namely Buddhism and the Huangquan Sect.
However, there are also advantages to not having a strong golden body. If there are strong golden bodies in this world, then those big sects will definitely have them. In that case, it will be very bad for the rule of the dynasty.
Now Daqian is no longer the powerful Daqian he used to be. The former Emperor Daqian could determine the life and death of the strong men with a single word. The strong monsters, the grasslands, and the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea could only live under the pressure of Emperor Daqian. trembling.
Now, these races are thinking about how to escape from Daqian's rule!
"That's good if it's arranged!" The emperor looked at Zhou Hangjie a little tiredly, and saw that the prime minister, who had reached the first-class level of strength, had a few white hairs in his hair. When the two of them met, Zhou Hangjie was already Da Gan is a very important official, but he was so high-spirited back then.
Now Zhou Hangjie has become the Prime Minister of Daqian, and he has also become the Emperor of Daqian, but the sharp aura seems to have disappeared from both of them.
When he first became emperor, he wanted to start reforms and pull back the empire that was about to fall into the abyss. However, the reality is that they are being pulled into the abyss by the entire empire. This empire is not what they want to pull back, but Can come back.
There are too many people who want this empire to disappear, and there are too many vampire monsters hanging on the empire, sucking its blood, and then throwing the empire into the long river of history at any time.
In the past, he only saw his father's inaction, but not his hard support. It was not until he became the emperor of Daqian that he realized that the empire was already in decline. Except for a few families in the entire empire, Everyone else is watching the empire go into the abyss, and they want a piece of the empire's corpse.
The father assigned the princes not only to create opponents for him, but also to let those princes swallow the blood of those who were disobedient. Even if he failed, those princes could stand up.
Their family's world, even if another person becomes the emperor, it will still be their family's world.
His father also left him a powerful army and generals who could stop the Caoyuan people. What he had to do was to slowly pull the empire out of the abyss. The other princes also felt it, so they did not launch an attack at the first time. Peng rebelled, and as long as the new emperor didn't attack them, they would only make small moves around their own territory.
"My dear, you must take some rest!"
The emperor said to Zhou Hangjie.
Zhou Hangjie was thinking about a problem when he suddenly heard the emperor's words and looked at the tired emperor with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, you should also pay attention to rest!"
"I understand. My dear, you can appropriately delegate some power to others. Don't take everything on your shoulders. This will tire yourself out!" The emperor is not saying that Zhou Hangjie has exclusive power, but that the entire court can serve the people. There are only a few people working, and most of them are spokespersons for various big families. They will only protect the interests of their own families. As for the common people, they are busy, so take care of them at that time.
As for what he is busy with, the emperor knows very well. He is busy increasing taxes for the Daqian Empire. The taxes on the eighth level and above of the empire are all obtained from these people. What they are best at is drinking in various places and looking for them in the court. But when you go to the land of Goulan, you can hear that they are willing to spend a lot of money just to win a beautiful woman's smile.
But the emperor couldn't get rid of them yet, because they represented various large families. These families spent a lot of money on him before he became emperor. His ability to become the emperor of Daqian was inseparable from these families.
At first, he felt that these families were very good, but after he became the emperor, he realized why his father treated these families so much.
Perhaps, this is the change.
Zhou Hangjie knew that His Majesty was not knocking him, but really cared about him. However, he was a first-class master and was protected by a Grandmaster-level master.
Zhou Hangjie smiled and nodded: "As long as they are willing to do it, I will definitely let them do it!"
The emperor smiled helplessly: "You!"
If they were willing to do it, they would have already started doing it!
Zhou Hangjie has asked Zhou Hangjie to send the talented people in the court to other places, and their talents can be fully utilized only in the local area. It would be a waste of talents to keep them in the big dye vat of the court.
Zhou Hangjie and the emperor were very aware of the appearance of most of the people in the court. Those people were still immersed in the glory of their families. The changes in the grassland, the changes in the southern world, and the raging smoke everywhere were nothing in their eyes.
The entire Daqian Dynasty has experienced too many such things. In the end, didn't they kill all those who rebelled and betrayed them?
Besides, if the world is in chaos, what does it matter to their imperial capital? As long as the imperial army is still there, even strong men with golden bodies will be suppressed when they come to the imperial capital of Daqian.
"I will accept it!"
The emperor waved his hand: "Go down, remember to send a message to Li Xiang and ask him to come with his family!"
Zhou Hangjie listened, and although he didn't know what His Majesty meant, he still responded: "Yes!"
Zhou Hangjie had often heard the name Li Xiang from the emperor since Li Xiang occupied the northwest. He knew that Li Xiang was a very good general. With a little polish, he would not be worse than his father Li Zhen. Maybe The father and son are evenly matched.
Li Zhen commanded the army. When fighting, he basically decided on strategies one by one. When the army fought, they all followed the strategies he formulated.
Li Xiang is different. Li Xiang basically only decides on a general strategy, and then dispatches the army. There are not many strategies. Most of them are improvised strategies. The most common ones are various surprise attacks or Li Xiang leads the army straight into the opponent's center. Army, kill the opponent's army until it collapses.
Father and son are complete opposites.
It's a pity that Li Xiang, if it hadn't been for the Queen's brother, Li Xiang might have been the sharpest knife in their hands, instead of a sword like now. As long as you use the knife well, aim his blade at it.
The enemy will never hurt you.
The sword is different. If you are not careful, you can hurt yourself!
After Zhou Hangjie retreated, the emperor asked: "How is the situation over there in Liangzhou?"
A dark figure appeared from behind: "Back to Your Majesty, Governor Li has sent an army to the north. At this time, they have already fought with the Qiang cavalry. On the other side, the Ma family, Han family and other family armies are confronting the Governor's headquarters army. There should be no more outbreaks between the two sides this year.
There will be too big a war."
The emperor chuckled and said: "If it hadn't been for the Mid-Autumn Festival, perhaps Li Xiang would have led his army to run wild on the land of Liangzhou.
Can you find out the origin of the soldiers from Xiliang Headquarters?"
The emperor admired Li Xiang very much. He liked Li Xiang's recklessness. Li Xiang was more suitable to be a general than a monarch. He was too reckless and too loyal. He had a childish temper and only wanted to fight against things he didn't like.
, he doesn’t want it.
For example, if he personally granted the marriage, if it weren't for the persuasion of the woman named Wu Yating, Li Xiang might not have agreed. The Liangzhou governor he granted the marriage to was just to give Li Xiang an excuse to come to the Central Plains.
But Li Xiang is such an idiot, he just refused.
If he had refused at that time, Li Xiang would have offended him, the most powerful person in the Eastern world, but Li Xiang almost did it.
Now the Eighth Princess is still staying at Tongtianhe City, waiting for Prime Minister Li to return from Liangzhou and take the Eighth Princess back to Jiuyuan City.
The person behind said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Xiliang army is very vigilant outside the pass. They have not found where the Xiliang army is coming from, but they have received a piece of news.
The entire area outside the Pass has been turned into a farming land, and the wild land without any plants has also been turned into a fertile field in the hands of Xiliang farmers. According to the estimates of the spies, the food produced in the fertile fields outside the Pass can probably feed the entire northwest civilian population.
As long as the food in the northwest is grown at full capacity, the northwest can feed 500 to 700 million people!"
"So many!" The emperor couldn't believe it and frowned: "Is your estimate correct?"
Now the whole Daqian is short of food. No, his overseas brother is not short of food, and several food-producing places in the south are not short of food. However, in other places, due to successive years of natural and man-made disasters, food harvests in various places have failed.
Currently, most areas in the southern part of Daqian are short of food. The food in the northern area is just enough for daily use. The northwest area can only make ends meet, so the area around the imperial capital is relatively good.
However, as a large number of refugees arrived around the Imperial Capital, food and grass problems began to arise around the Imperial Capital.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, his father left him a huge stall and a large amount of supplies and food.
The ten major warehouses in the imperial capital contain enough food to feed the people around the imperial capital for a hundred years.
He opened a warehouse and took out the food inside to stabilize the food price in the imperial capital. Otherwise, at the current price of food, countless civilians would starve to death.
"This is an underestimation!" said the voice: "There is no shortage of food in the northwest, and there is also no shortage of other materials. They have formed a self-sufficient small world."
"They own cloth, silk, and ceramics, and they are sending these things to the Western world in large quantities. They should have opened up business channels with the Western world, and perhaps they have established a foothold in the Western world. According to the information obtained by the spies, Xiliang
The headquarters troops have been dispatched to the Western World.
From the beginning to now, probably 50,000 headquarters troops have been dispatched!"
The Xiliang headquarters army is everything to Xiliang. The West headquarters army is Prime Minister Li's willful capital. As long as the headquarters army is still there, no one dares to rebel. Xiliang Qi's seventh, eighth, and ninth legions seem to have a lot of people.
But there are traces of soldiers from Xiliang headquarters in these armies.
The soldiers of the headquarters are the instructors of these armies. At the same time, there are a certain number of Xiliang soldiers in each army. Their existence is to control the army and also to supervise each army.
The controllers of these armies are very interested in the arrival of Xiliang soldiers from the west, because as long as there are Xiliang soldiers, the morale of the army can be guaranteed. With the soldiers from Xiliang headquarters, even if the army is in a desperate situation, the army can
Maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness.
Many Xiliang soldiers will calm down when they see Xiliang headquarters. This is the power of Xiliang headquarters soldiers. They can calm ordinary soldiers and maintain a certain combat effectiveness.
"Did you find out about his two children?"
The emperor did not give up the opportunity to gain Li Xiang's loyalty. Li Xiang's father was Li Zhen, the marshal of the north of Daqian. He controlled the most elite army in the north of Daqian, numbering millions, and he also controlled the North.
politics.
These were rights given to Li Zhen by his father before his death, and he has not taken away these rights even now, because once Li Zhen is put down, it will be a huge disaster for the entire north.
The northern land under the control of Li Xiang was similar to that around the imperial capital. There were not many wars, because no one dared to make small moves under the marshal. He did not see the northeast side. Because of a batch of supplies, the marshal directly sent out an army, which almost
Wipe out a whole family.
In the end, the family paid a hundred times the money for the supplies and was able to continue to exist. Of course, a certain prince was involved in this, otherwise, you would have no place to send them if you had money.
Li Zhen doesn't have any sand in his eyes, so if he wants to do something, he has chosen the wrong place.
Moreover, the existence of the Northern Army is to prevent the prairie people from calming down and settling the matters behind them. As long as there are still conflicts among the prairie people, they will still have a chance to take back the grassland.
As an ambitious emperor, even if he had no intention of expanding the territory, he would never let Daqian's original territory become smaller.
The people of the grasslands and the southern demon clan are the goals he strives for in his life, and of course, he must deal with the territory of Daqian.
Therefore, Li Zhen cannot withdraw and nothing happens.
He had made a mistake before and allowed a marshal to die tragically. He could not let another marshal of the empire die.
"We haven't found out that there is a great master protecting him in the Jiuyuan City Lord's Mansion. We can't get close."
"Then don't go!" Hearing the great master, the emperor didn't insist: "Anyway, we can see it this year!"
