Jin'an Emperor

Chapter 265 Governance

The once prominent Yan Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty army led by Lu Qiang, swept the fallen leaves with the autumn wind and swept under the huge wheel of history.

This process seems simple, but after careful analysis, it is not difficult to find that this is actually an inevitable result.

First of all, the internal strife in Yan's internal strife has led to the weakening of national strength, which is a major reason. Secondly, the extreme war-weariness of the soldiers of the Yan army and the Han supremacy strongly advocated by the road are also a very important reason for the destruction of the State of Yan.

This made Lu Qiang destroy it at the right time, otherwise it would be like Yao's Qin Dynasty. Although Lu Qiang had the intention to destroy it, he had to wait patiently for the opportunity because of the stability of the Qin Dynasty.

However, to be honest, Lu Qiang was a little unexpected about the final result. He even thought that the war would last for a long time and was ready accordingly. Fortunately, everything is over.

After the war, we must take great control of the messy old swallowland.

Lu Qiang took the opportunity of patrolling the Yan land to appease the people while requiring Luoyang officials to reappoint and remove officials from all over the old Yan as soon as possible. Murong is in the past, and this must be under the absolute control of the imperial court.

I have to say that Han Fan played a great role in dealing with the affairs of the old Yan. While helping to give advice, he also recommended a lot of useful talents to Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang remembered He Changyu's words, so while reducing taxes in Shandong and other places, he increased his educational investment in the old Yan land. The decree is passed to the Guozijian. In the future, all students from the old Yan land of Shandong will be given priority admission.

This is not a bias, but an inevitable process.

Lu Qiang's decree was implemented smoothly in the old Yandi, but one thing also made him scratch his head, that is, after the toss of Murong and Feng, the population here is extremely short.

The biggest sequela is that the land is desolate, and many places can't even be seen within a hundred miles.

Feeling this situation, Lu Qiang, during the inspection, asked the Luoyang court to draw up a constitution as soon as possible to encourage the people who moved south to return to their homes. In addition, the troops of Murong Chao and Zhang Xing were greatly reduced, and the strong men were filled into other armies. Those who were old, weak, sick and disabled should directly return to the local areas to work in agriculture.

There are also many young men who do not want to join the army, and Lu Qiang also let them go home one by one. After all, the most lacking here is labor, not soldiers.

In fact, it is false to say that there is no shortage of troops. Now that the State of Yan has been destroyed, Lu Qiang not only has to bear all the Yan people, but also has to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting them.

The long border line is the closest place to the Wei people. At the same time, the people in the north are fierce, and there is not only a nomadic people outside the Great Wall. When various natural disasters come, who dares to guarantee that those ethnic minorities will not cross the border and attack the border people?

So all the pass of the Great Wall must be guarded by heavy troops.

In the early stage, Lu Qiang dispatched nearly 200,000 troops, and with the old Yan troops of the states and counties, the total strength is now about 300,000.

Such a large number sounds scary, but on the long border from Yanmen in the west to the sea in the east, 300,000 people can't see anything if they are sent.

Fortunately, outside the customs are now dominated by the power of Tuobagui. As long as he does not provoke, the rest of the tribes have no power to challenge the Jin Dynasty alone.

Lu Qiang then ordered Tan Daoji to move to Youzhou. The governor of the border gate was transferred to Han Fan as the governor of Youzhou and assisted Tan Daoji to govern the local area.

Wen Chumao is stationed in Bingzhou, which will serve as the first front to attack Qin in the future.

Yanzu was stationed in Yizhou and passed through the land of the old swallows.

In this way, there are three large armies sitting in the old Yan land, and with the heavy troops of Luoyang, it is enough to ensure that there is no worries in the north.

At the same time, Lu Qiang also ordered Xu Daofu to build a military dock in Liaoxi, where 10,000 navies will be stationed there, so as to ensure the pressure on Baekje and attack the north customs from the sea at any time.

After assigning the troops and inspecting the border gate, Lu Qiang did not return directly to Luoyang, but took the 10,000 black panthers to start his second southern patrol.

South is Lu Qiang's starting place. In the past two years, he has been focusing on the north and has somewhat ignored the south. He intends to take this opportunity to tour again, mainly focusing on the development there.

Of course, Jiangnan is so big that if he wants to finish walking, he is afraid to go to the year of the monkey, so he just chooses to look at a few important cities.

After crossing Xuzhou, Lu Qiang's first stop was Yangzhou.

In his previous life, Lu Qiang read the sentence "100,000 yuan with a waist and riding a crane down to Yangzhou" in a book, and later he also read the introduction of how prosperous Yangzhou is from other books.

The army has cleaned up here because of Buddhist believers, so that the people here still have a sense of resistance to the government.

Because of Zhu Chaoshi, the magistrate here has not been replaced. In fact, this is not a helpless move to stabilize here.

Lu Qiang wanted to see the first-hand information. Of course, he could not come with the army, so on the way, he left the brigade, took only more than a dozen bodyguards, changed his clothes and entered Yangzhou City.

Lu Qiang came to Yangzhou for the first time. As soon as he entered the city, he was deeply shocked by the prosperity of the city.

Yangzhou's architecture may not be as strange as Luoyang and Jiankang Xiongqi, but it is unique in shape and novel in design, which is the first time since Lu Qiang has seen it in this era.

The neat and clean streets, all kinds of shops on both sides of the streets, and the gorgeous crowds on the streets all show the prosperity of the city.

In fact, long before the rise of Lu Qiang, Yangzhou was already a gathering place for merchants in the north and south. With the gradual stabilization of the domestic situation, the number of merchants coming from the south to the north has soared to an unprecedented height, thus further promoting the prosperity here.

Lu Qiang walked slowly on the street, and the scene in front of him couldn't help but make him happy. If all cities can be like this, it will be truly peaceful and prosperous.

Near noon, Lu Qiang chose a restaurant facing the street and was ready to return after lunch. The city was governed like this. He had nothing to say. Time was tight. His next stop was Guangling, where he started.

Because it was almost noon, the guests had already sat down one after another.

The bodyguard wanted to find a single room for him, but he was stopped by Lu Qiang. He came to observe the people's feelings. What else can he listen to when he went to the single room?

Sitting in the corner and looking at all kinds of people can be described as another kind of scenery.

More than 20 tables can be placed in the lobby. Over time, the tables are also occupied by guests. In this scene, the noise is inevitable.

Different regions, of course, people talk about different things. Some talk about goods, some talk about anecdotes and anecdotes, and some talk about the beauty of women there. Of course, it is also necessary to talk about how today's emperor is in the sea.

Lu Qiang listened with a pot of tea with relish. His ears have always been very good. Although he is in the noise of human voices, if he wants to listen to someone who speaks, he can still hear it clearly.

At this moment, a heavy footsteps came from the stairs, and then more than a dozen strong men in grassland costumes came up.

Yangzhou is a place where merchants meet in the north and south, and grassland people are not uncommon.

Unexpectedly, after these strong men, two young women came up. The two young women are obviously the master and servants, and their clothes are gorgeous, especially the girl dressed as the master, who has bright eyes and cool teeth, and her skin is as lovely as a porcelain doll.

Behind the girl, there is a shopkeeper who is constantly losing money.

"I'm really sorry, miss. You came too late. There is really no room. Look, this lobby is full."

More than a dozen grassland visitors looked at the messy crowd and knew that what the clerk said was the truth. One of the leaders turned to the girl and said, "Miss, why don't we change another family!"

"Do you want to change it? We have been to several houses. Anyway, I just ate here. It's nice and lively."

The girl was obviously also a unruly and capricious master. After saying that, she picked up her toes and looked around.

There are several people around Lu Qiang, but who dares to sit with the emperor? So he was drinking by himself at the whole table.

This situation soon came into the girl's eyes, gently pulled the maid and walked towards Lu Qiang.

In such a place, the most nervous bodyguards were Lu Qiang's. As soon as the girl and maid approached the table, two guards immediately stopped them.

"I'm sorry, miss, this table has been wrapped by my owner. Please change to another place."

Lu Qiang's bodyguard rushed up, and the girl's companion was naturally unwilling to show weakness and immediately rushed to protect the girl. The two sides stared at each other with big eyes and a tense posture.

The girl pointed the way and said andly, "Is it amazing that you occupy such a big table alone? I also have silver. How much do you want? Just count it and give me the table."

The noise of several people immediately attracted the attention of all the drinkers.

Of course, Lu Qiang will not be the same as a little girl. With a smile, he is ready to get up and give her the table. For him, the purpose of this trip has been achieved and he can leave at any time.

Before Lu Qiang opened his mouth, there was suddenly an arrogant sound on the stairs.

"That eyeless thing dares to make Miss Huang unhappy? Do you want to eat in prison?"

"The little girl's surname is Huang, but she is from the grass. I'm afraid it's a fake surname, right?"

Lu Qiang looked up and down at the girl before turning his head and looking at the stairs, but saw a handsome teenager gently shaking his folding fan and walking over slowly.

The teenager is dressed in a satin gown and hangs a few valuable jade pendants on his belt. Obviously, he is not the son of ordinary people, and he can call out the girl's surname, which is obviously a girl.

It's just that when the girl saw him, an expression of disgust immediately appeared on her face and said hatefully, "Are you a fly? How can I see you there?"

The teenager directly ignored the attitude of the girl surnamed Huang and said casually, "Where does life not meet? Frequently meeting young ladies is enough to show that you and I are predestined people."

After the teenager finished speaking, his eyes turned to Lu Qiang, but when he touched Lu Qiang's power without disguise, the momentum suddenly became frustrated.

From his surprised expression, it is not difficult to see that he must be surprised who this is?

This kind of young people are jealous, so Lu Qiang is too lazy to participate. He smiled and rose up and said, "Since you all like this place, let it be given to you."

After saying that, he left with his hands away.

The girl just felt that Lu Qiang's momentum was just different from that of ordinary people, until Lu Qiang stood up, and the unconscious power suddenly shocked her.

"What a great strange man"...
