I’m The King

Chapter 509: : Shannan County

Shannan County is a new administrative county established by the State of Qin after defeating the Huns. His choice of location is extremely clever. It not only guards the Holland Pass, but also maintains both attack and defense against the Huns on the prairie. At the same time, it firmly blocked Zhao’s Daijun.

The Huns have been defeated, and Shannan County’s larger purpose is actually another offensive line planned to conquer the State of Zhao. After several years of operation, the originally desolate piece of land has now risen to a medium-sized city, with high walls and flying military flags, preaching the sovereignty of the Qin people.

Every moment, new immigrants arrive in this place. Outside the city, new residential areas are being formed. In Qin, the people need to bear extremely heavy taxes. In order to make this barren county system as soon as possible Prosperous, Qin Guochaotang specially formulated a new policy for Shannan County, obtaining land for free, and at the same time, exempting three years of taxation.

No other stimulus was needed. This alone caused many Qin people to leave their homes and come to this completely unfamiliar land to start their hard work.

The scale of Shannan County's government is a county, but his current scale is at best the size of a county, but because of its special importance here, it is specially assigned as a county.

The land that has just been reclaimed does not have a high yield, which cannot meet the consumption of the people and the army here. A large amount of food still needs to be transferred from the interior to make up for the shortcomings here.

Moreover, because of the shortage of population and the extreme poverty, there are very few caravans here to trade, because the income obtained from one trip is often not worth the travel expenses and consumption, which also makes the daily use here extremely scarce.

In short, it is very poor here.

The guard of Shannan County, He Yangguang, this is a military commander. Because of the special nature of Shannan County, the highest officer here can only be a general with troops. He Yangguang is a pure warrior. Leading soldiers to fight is his specialty. He is completely a layman on how to manage the people's livelihood. Therefore, the Sima who is assigned to him is an official who is good at managing the people's livelihood. But this official was a lofty acquaintance, Yan Ren Lu Chao, Lu Hong's only son.

After the Qin people completed the centralization of power in the hands of King Qin Wulie and established the real rule of counties and counties, although the hereditary aristocrats still occupy most of the high-level positions, some useful talents have also begun to defect or be managed by the Qin people. Digging to get reused, compared with these people, although Lu Chao, who is from Yan, has these incomparable advantages. His teacher is Li Ru, a person who is generally respected among Qin people.

Lu Chao, who was just 24 years old this year, took up the post of Sima in Shannan County. He was a solid facial features. At the age of more than 20, it is extremely rare for Qin to sit in this position.

At first, when He Yangguang saw this young doll, he was very skeptical. If it weren’t for Lu Chao’s halo of Li Ru’s disciple, he would almost speak to his boss for a replacement, but after the two had worked together for a while , He Yangguang had to thank his boss for finding a good partner for himself.

Lu Chao is a good hand in governing people’s livelihood. He grew up in the county government office. He was originally known for those things in the county government office. Shannan County is known as a county, but it is actually on the scale of a county. The population is still small, and Li Ru’s academics are not just theory, but also a lot of practice. Lu Chao followed Li Ru for two years and traveled all over the world. Not only did he inherit Li Ru’s doctrine, but he also grew up. The knowledge learned in the county government is perfectly integrated into Li Ru's theory.

To him, dealing with Shannan County's affairs is just a piece of cake.

After working with He Yangguang for half a year, He Yangguang handed over the logistics rationing rights of his army to Lu Chao, and he completely escaped from these matters and devoted himself to training his army. He knew very well that once the war broke out. , His army is definitely a forward.

And two months ago, a new army of 5,000 people was transferred to join him. Seeing the arrival of this army, He Yangguang understood that there might be a war in the spring, and this battle , There is no doubt that it will be aimed at Zhao Guodai County.

He Yangguang did not care too much about the five thousand recruits. Qin is now at war with South Korea. General Li Xin has taken away the main force. Hangu Pass’s defense has never been relaxed, because he is directly facing the opponent that Qin attaches the most importance to. Zhao Mu, Zhao Mu, and General Wang Xiao were stationed here. These two places almost concentrated the Qin’s most combatant army, Shannan County, where thousands of cavalry and nearly 10,000 infantry were stationed from the beginning, commanded by Yingying. After the Xiongnu on the grassland was completely defeated, they began to gradually mobilize troops to supplement these two places. In the end, He Yangguang's men were left with only a thousand infantry and a thousand cavalry. However, these two thousand men are veterans who have been fighting for a long time. Now there are five thousand new recruits. These veterans are scattered and assigned to the new recruits to serve as grass-roots officers. He Yangguang is sure to make these new recruits an elite team this winter.

After two months of training, the recruits began to look a little bit jerky. He Yangguang even began to consider whether to take them to the grassland and find one or two unlucky Xiongnu tribes for them to practice.

During this process, he was even more satisfied with Lu Chao, because Lu Chao organized the logistics of the army of up to 7,000 troops, completely freeing him from worries.

What even made He Yangguang sigh was that even Lu Chao had always been polite to him, a guy who hadn't read many books, and didn't show any contempt.

In this regard, he can only lament that there are no illusory scholars under the prestigious reputation. The disciples taught by Li Ru are really outstanding among people, and the future of this person is unlimited.

It is precisely because Yiyiwu cooperates so tacitly that even if Yangon is higher than Lu Chao, he respects Lu Chao very much. He knows very well that without Lu Chao's efforts, he might have made Shannan County. It's a mess. In addition to the troops stationed in Shannan County, the population of Shannan County has become more and more like every day, and it has become more prosperous every day.

This makes He Yangguang very excited, because it will become his capital for future promotion.

The weather was very cold, and the nasty snow always fell. He Yangguang walked into the prefecture of Shannan County, and the pages on his body clinked, and the snow stained on it kept falling. He just took it with him. The soldiers completed a day of training.

Xia Lian Sanjiu, winter training, He Yangguang is a general who came out of war. He has not learned much art of war, but he knows very well that if he can't stand even this bit of suffering, he is not an elite at all.

As soon as he stepped into the prefecture, he saw Lu Chao. Not long ago, there was news from the Yan Kingdom and Liaoxi that Lu Chao’s father, Lu Hong, died in the battle. What made Lu Chao angrily was that his father did not die in the battle with the Donghu people, but in the internal struggle in the west of Liaoning. Zhong died at the hands of Zhang Junbao, which made He Yangguang, who was also a military commander, also embarrassed. This is probably the greatest sorrow of a military commander.

Lu Hong was dressed in an official uniform, but instead of the usual jade belt around his waist, he replaced it with a hemp rope. He Yangguang knew that Lu Chao was mourning for his father. Shannan County is so busy now that He Yangguang was worried that Lu Hong would have to Leaving here and going back to the country of Yan to handle the funeral, Shannan County is going to be a mess. Even if a new person is immediately sent to take over, it will not be possible to get started in a short time. This will definitely affect the battle against Zhao next year.

Lu Chao's performance made him extremely admired. This young official did not neglect official duties because of this, but was more diligent. He Yangguang knows Lu Chao’s mind very well. If Qin Guo can defeat Zhao Guo after the war against Zhao next year, then Yan Guo, who has lost the Zhao Guo barrier, will be directly exposed to the Qin ** team. At that time, Lu Chao's hatred will be easily repaid.

But then the news transferred from the Black Ice Platform surprised both He Yangguang and Lu Chao. Lu Chao's enemy died, and Zhang Junbao fell into Gao Yuan's hands. All of them were beheaded by Gao Yuan as a group of accomplices who had conspired against his father. , Liaoxi City fell into Gaoyuan's hands.

Gao Yuan, He Yangguang didn’t know very well. He just faintly heard people talk about this character. For ordinary people in the Qin State, Yan State was too far away. Gao Yuan didn’t know Donghu’s impressive achievements. It's too clear that the legendary love between Gao Yuan and Ye Jing'er is widely sung, but He Yangguang is not cold about these turbulent things.

It wasn't until the dramatic changes within the Yan State that Gao Yuan took control of western Liaoning in one fell swoop, and defeated tens of thousands of Yan's troops under Jishi City, forcing Yan's new ruler Tan Feng and Zhou Yu to sign the alliance under the city. He Yangguang was notified of the situation. Value this person.

He asked He Yangguang to send manpower to find out about Jishi City. In the depths of the grassland, a city was erected. This was not what the Qin people wanted to see. Because of this incident, He Yangguang found Lu Chao, because he knew that Lu Chao was also from Liaoxi and Fufeng.

When he heard about Lu Chao's relationship with Gao Yuan once, he did open his mouth wide and was shocked. In fact, the relationship between Lu Chao and Gao Yuan is not particularly close, because at that time Gao Yuan ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is indeed a gangster, but Lu Chao is an outstanding young man. As an outstanding young Lu Chao, naturally I can't understand the lofty distance. If the relationship between the two families is not special, Lu Chao would not even take care of this guy.

But four years later, when he left home that year, he was still a fellow who was arranged by his father to hang around among the county soldiers, and he actually did something that shocked the world. This did make Lu Chao a little jealous. In contrast, the things that he was proud of before could not be regarded as anything.

But Gao Yuan was able to kill his father's enemy with his own hands, and finally his father didn't hurt him in vain.

He told He Yangguang everything he knew, but He Yangguang couldn't connect the lofty height in his mouth with the present lofty height.

Four years is enough to make a person change a lot. He Yangguang sent some people to sneak into the grassland, but I'm afraid they won't be able to come back in a short time.

"He Junshou!" Lu Chao bowed his hand to him in salute.
