Chapter 539 in the Uncrowned King

Samo built the city, singing and dancing in King Kang's Palace, and the wine and meat were fragrant.

For three days in a row, the descendants of the nine kingdoms, who also belong to the Dayue family, gathered here to discuss the major event of unification and merger!

Over the years, although the nine states of Zhaowu have raised a lot of soldiers, because they have collapsed for their own battles, and they are not good at fighting and are not good at diplomacy and military affairs, they have been defeated. They have been suppressed and enslaved by the northern court of the Western Turks, and they dare to be angry and have to endure it silently.

In recent years, there have been many wars in the Western Regions, and the Western Turks have fought repeatedly in the north and south, so these small countries have to survive in the middle and everyone is in danger. Coupled with the strong stubbornness of the Western great food countries, it has calmed down the Persian Sassanid Dynasty. It will touch the Western Regions day and night. The first thing to do is to devour the rich nine states of Zhaowu as a springboard and base for entering the Western Regions. The domestic chaos in the former Fankang broke out under such external and internal troubles. If it hadn't been for Wu Mei Niang's magical performance that made Kang Guo's Rebel Party kill each other, and Su Dingfang, the general of the Tang Dynasty, rushed to help Kang Guo resist foreign enemies. At this time, the cannibal machete would have already been on the necks of the people of Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms.

At the same time, the Tang Dynasty strongly entered the Western Regions, destroying Gaochang, Pingbeiting, and more than 20 small tribes in the Western Regions. In just over a year, the Tang Dynasty's Guanxi army stepped thousands of miles and attacked the territory of the Western Regions with the momentum of a torrent, and no one could stop it. The Northern Court of the Western Turkic, which once dominated the party for a while, finally knelt down in the face of the repeated defeat of the divine power of the Tang Dynasty.

The Beiting is still unable to compete with the Kansai Army of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the nine states of Zhaowu, who once knelt at the foot of the Beiting?

From the moment when Qin Mubai personally led his troops to the Western Regions, all the people in the nine countries were panicked. Because they have also been attached to the Northern Court, more or less, or actively or forced to do something hostile to the Tang Dynasty.

Now they are worried about themselves. If they are still enemies of the Tang Dynasty, I'm afraid they don't have to work hard by Kansai coach Qin Mubai, and send a member to wave the teacher, and the nine countries will be stepped into a flat ground in an instant!

Fortunately, the young commander of Kansai Qin did not care about their old evils, did not intend to destroy the nine states of Zhaowu, and was determined to build an alliance with the nine states. The monarchs of the nine kingdoms are not stupid. They know that the Tang Dynasty intends to support a force in the remote areas of the Western Regions as a military buffer zone to prevent the confrontation between the East and the West. They also know that since even the Beiting was destroyed, the nine states of Zhaowu still survived. On the one hand, it was because of the tolerance of the Tang Dynasty, and on the other hand, it was also because of the personal relationship between Wu Mei Niang and Qin Mubai.

If this is not the case, Qin Mubai just needs to move his mouth and fight against the nine countries in the name of punishment. Who can stop the hundreds of thousands of tigers and wolves under his command? At that time, he will be able to collect all the wealth of the nine countries, and then support a puppet king of the empty shell dynasty to order the nine countries! - Great cannibals, isn't it planned in this way?

The survival of the nine countries is actually only between Qin Mubai. He has sufficient reasons and absolute strength to do whatever he wants in the Jiuguo of Zhaowu! Even if the people of the nine countries are wronged, they can only do nothing.

Therefore, under such a delicate premise, the identity of Wu Mei Niang is very important. In addition, the new crescent queen of Kang Guo has long been the favorite of Qin Mubai, and these monarchs are all tacit. At this time, not only will they not have any dissatisfaction, but they are also constantly shouting and celebrating in their hearts - fortunately, there is Wu Mei Niang, and fortunately, the new moon queen 'sacrifice herself' to save the nine countries of Zhaowu, so that the race continues the country to survive!

Under such a big premise, the integration of the nine countries into one is the fact that the general trend is determined. Although the meeting was held for three days, in fact, 90% of the time was eating, drinking and playing, and there was nothing to discuss.

It is inevitable for the pink ink of the 'Dazhao Wu Kingdom', and it is also inevitable that the new moon queen of Kang will become the first king of the Dazhao Wu Kingdom. What needs to be discussed is how to demarcation the territory of the nine countries and how to settle the monarchs and nobles of the other eight countries.

At the suggestion of Qin Mubai, the State of Dazhao Wu followed the state and county system of the Tang Dynasty and divided the territory of the original nine countries into states and counties, which was unified by the officials sent by the King of Dazhao. The original cities of the eight countries were all called 'city' as companions, and the original eight monarchs were pardoned as the 'eight city lords'. In addition, some small cities have been set up to be awarded to other important nobles and city lords at all levels.

The city owner enjoys food, fiefdom and titles at all levels. His status is extremely honorable and rich, and the position of city owner can be hereditary. However, the city owner must submit to the king and obey the king's order. He must pay taxes to the state according to the law, and has no right to appoint officials at all levels in the city, let alone support private soldiers.

In fact, the city owner is like the kind of false prince who was awarded the praise of the Tubo Zanpuzong in the Tang Dynasty. He can enjoy the glory and wealth, but he does not have a high political status, let alone have any military strength.

At the same time, Zhaowu will also abolish the "first auxiliary cabinet" system originally implemented by Kang Guoju, and establish "three provinces and six ministries" in full accordance with the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, establish a perfect political institution and official governance system, and further centralize royal power.

Wu Mei Niang, who is expected to become the first Shang Shuling of the State of Dazhao. ( It is equivalent to "national prime minister.")

The kings and nobles of the nine kingdoms unanimously elected Wu Mei Niang, the head of the military aircraft of Kang, as the Shang Shuling, which can also be said to be well-intentioned. Because at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, held this position in the Tang Dynasty. In later generations, in order to avoid Taizong that no one had ever held this position, the Tang Dynasty took the official positions of "Shangshu Zuo (Right) Servant Shooting" and "Tongzhong Shumen Xia Pingzhangshi" to act on behalf of or divide the position of Shangshuling. The right servant shot of Zhenguan Tang Dynasty is Xiao Yu, and the left servant shot is concurrently served by Situ Changsun Wuji.)

They are nothing more than showing goodwill to Qin Mubai, and also paving the way for the meditation position of the future queen of the crescent moon. At that time, it can also be called "We are just imitating our patriarch of the Tang Dynasty," so that Fuzheng Wu Mei Niang will be right.

While the nine countries were discussing unification, Qin Mubai was not idle for a moment except for being invited to participate in the discussion. The Tang Dynasty has roughly paced the Western Regions, and it is time for the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate to be established. In addition, the boundary of the Western Regions is wide, and an Anxi Metropolitan Protector is definitely unable to govern the whole land. Therefore, under the governor's office, another governor's office must be set up at all levels. In addition to the territory of the nine countries that are not included in the territory, other zones also need to be divided into prefectures and counties.

Qin Mubai, Su Dingfang and others first agreed on a draft. The site of Anxi Duhufu was selected in the original Beiting's accompanying capital and the throat of the Western Regions - the prosperous and beautiful Gongyue City. In addition, there are also nine separate governors, including Gaochang, Beiting, Kunling, Dawan, Tiaozhi and Pian, and the garrison is stationed with a government office.

Among them, there is a governor's mansion called the 'Yue's Grand Governor', which is the only "big" governor's mansion among the nine governors' mansions. The address is in the city of Samo. Qin Mubai asked Su Dingfang to serve as the first governor of the Yue family, stationing 20,000 troops in his dependent country on behalf of the Tang Dynasty, supervising the governance of the country by the king who assisted the Dazhao Wu Kingdom, and exercising the various powers of the suzerain.

The ten-thousand-mile territory of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions is divided into more than a dozen states and dozens of counties. Although Qin Mubai will report to the court and ask the court to send officials to take office. However, at the beginning of the establishment of the governor's office, he could only send his generals to temporarily hold the position of governor, at least to establish the governor's office first.

However, because of this, it has formed a preconceived trend. At that time, it will certainly not be easy for the court to beat Qin Mubai's face and place the governor to take office separately. Instead, it can only accept this established fact and let these "temporary governors" selected by Qin Mubai become official feudal officials, at least for a certain term of office. Moreover, the candidates for state officials and county magistrates at all levels will certainly choose officials nearby. Most of them will come from the Kansai Army or officials who used to be under the rule of the Governor's Office of Lanzhou.

In this way, the four pillars and eight military platforms in the Kansai Army completely monopolized all the positions of governors in the Western Regions. They each lead 5,000 to 20,000 soldiers and are in charge of one side. Only Xue Rengui and Yuwen Hongtai, Qin Mubai did not let them serve as governor. The reason is very simple. Yuwen Hongtai will only charge into battle, not a political material. It's almost the same to go back to the court or be a general with Qin Mubai all the time. Xue Rengui, his future is far more than a governor in a remote place in the Western Regions!

In this way, the administrative division of the Western Regions has been generally clear. The prefectures and counties at all levels are subordinate to the governor's office, and the governor's office is subordinate to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate. In this way, the capital of Anxi protects Qin Mubai and will become the uncrowned king of the Tang Dynasty on half of the whole Western Regions!

At the beginning of the overall situation, Qin Mubai returned to his heart like an arrow and was eager to return to Lanzhou. The matter here in the Western Regions will be temporarily presided over by Su Dingfang.

Outside the city, the Tang Dynasty has been rectifying the soldiers and horses, and the governors at all levels are leading the soldiers and horses to the office. Qin Mubai is also ready to lead the army.

Before leaving, Qin Mubai had two private things to do, and several important people had to say goodbye.

First of all, he entered the city of Samo alone and came to Yuan Tianang's residence.

It was the little Taoist around Yuan Tianang who came to open the door. Before entering the door, the little boy told Qin Mubai that Sister Jingwei (Li Xueyan) accompanied her master to travel around the country, leaving only a letter for Qin Mubai.

Qin Mubai opened the letter and read it. The letter was written by Yuan Tianang. In the letter, he said that Jingwei insisted on going to the legendary ancient Persian country, so she had to go with her. It was estimated that she would not come back in three or two months. In addition, he also said that he would like to thank Qin Mubai for everything he has done for the pearl. Whether the pearl will have a good destination in the future and what his fate will be depends on Qin Mubai.

After reading the letter, Qin Mubai shook his head and smiled bitterly and said secretly: Xueyan still can't pass his own pass after all, and now she still has to hide from me. I left her a kit to think about it and give her a reply, but she chose to escape. However, sometimes there must be something in life, and there is no time to force it. If I am destined to be predestined, I will definitely meet again in the future. Now that everything is disturbing the state affairs, we have to put Li Xueyan's affairs aside for the time being. When I go to the Central Plains and come back, I will have a lot of time, although I love and hate with my children...

I didn't see Yuan Tiangang and Li Xueyan, and Qin Mubai had a little regret. Others would like Yuan Tianang, a great stick, to calculate the fate of the Tang Dynasty and the future of the Chinese nation, and re-yan "Tush Back Map".

But when Qin Mubai thought about it later, why should I bother myself? History has its own trajectory, and future generations have their own rise and fall. In life, it's enough to carry the things of life on your shoulder. Why think about a thousand years later? Even if you know the future, what can you do?

Qin Mubai's heart was relieved!
