Chapter 346 County System and Enfeoffment System

Compared with Mu Guiying, Fan Lihua is even better, faintly the first of the four heroines.

According to myths and legends, Mu Guiying and Fan Lihua are both apprentices of Li Shan's old mother. Their classmates include Zhong Wuyan from the Warring States Period, Zhu Yingtai from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Bai Suzhen from the Southern Song Dynasty.

In the game world constructed by Gaia, Li Shan's old mother is just a illusory existence, which is not credible.

Ouyang Shuo was looking at Fan Lihua's attributes when he heard system announcements.

"System Announcement: Congratulations to player Feng Prison Huang for becoming the second lord in China to be upgraded to a first-level county town. The reward is 4200 points of merit!"

...

"System Announcement: Congratulations to player Bai Hua for becoming the third lord in China to be upgraded to a first-level county town. The reward is 4000 points of merit!"

...

As soon as the announcement came out, players in the Chinese region remained calm.

When Phoenix Prison Phoenix and Bai Hua were conferred successively as "Lord of Caifeng" and "Marquis of Lingxi", the players had already expected the promotion of the two territories. If it wasn't for the Battle of Lianzhou, it is estimated that their promotion time would be earlier.

What's interesting is that Luofeng County was promoted one step ahead of Lingxi County.

Feng Prison Huang, there is really a way!

Ouyang Shuo just felt amused, but the four sisters, blue, red, purple and white, were a little depressed. They were full of confidence and planned to win the second place in China, but they were taken a step ahead by the "alone and lonely".

So, never underestimate your "opponent".

Feng Prison Huang taught the four sisters a good lesson.

The county seat is the real starting point for a truly ambitious lord. Only by being promoted to a county city does it really mean that the territory has taken root and established a foundation in the wilderness.

Whether it is wilderness rogues, rebels or rebels, it is difficult to take down a county.

County city, the beginning of hegemony.

The second year of Gaia will also be the year of the county.

If by the end of the second year of Gaia, the territory has not been promoted to a county, it basically means that the territory has completely lost its qualification to compete in the world.

From the county seat to the county seat is a qualitative improvement. It not only represents a change in the level of the city, but more importantly, the territory will change from a single city to a county where the top and bottom are integrated.

For the lord, while bringing greater power, it will also meet greater challenges.

The role of talents, especially high-end talents, has become more prominent.

Because the lords are basically young people, it is not easy to take charge of a county. Even Dichen and the others could not control the operation of a county without assistance.

Not to mention the siege lion, Xunlong Diancai and others, they are all ordinary people in reality, and they were just adventure players when they played games before.

For territory management, this mode of extreme testing of the lord's ability can only be explored slowly.

At the county level, you can still control it freely.

When you arrive at the county seat, if you don't pay attention, you will be derailed.

In this aspect, Gaia has a very precise scale.

Its ultimate goal is to cultivate a group of real lords or governors. A lord, if he perseveres to the end, it will be a ten-year achievement. From village head and town head to county magistrate, sheriff, and even founding a country, step-by-step experience is enough to forge a piece of good material into a piece of good steel.

The members of the Shanhai League are considered lucky in this area.

Because Ouyang Shuo, the "model lord", took the lead in setting an example, as long as they "followed the same steps", they would basically not make any mistakes in the general direction.

A series of measures that Ouyang Shuo implemented in the territory include his own originality, and more, they are the essence of the results that countless lords personally practiced and refined in the past five years.

After all, Ouyang Shuo was only standing on the shoulders of giants.

Ouyang Shuo's ability to survive until now is all thanks to his rebirth, which made his character and experience far surpass those of his peers, coupled with the assistance of a large number of historical talents.

After Shanhai County was promoted, Ouyang Shuo resolutely reformed the system and implemented the system of prefectures and counties. This is the root cause.

The battle of Lianzhou is a strong proof.

Even if Ouyang Shuo is not around, Bai Qi and Du Ruhui are in the command, and the division heads are all famous generals, they all have the ability to make decisions on the fly, and the government affairs system is running smoothly.

How can it be invincible?

So, the further you get to the back, the more you need to rely on the strength of the team.

The lord is the helmsman and navigator of the team.

In the previous life, the lords had different views on the operation mode after the county city.

Overall, there are two modes that prevail.

One is the county system that Ouyang Shuo is promoting. The prefecture and county system is applicable to most territories. The advantage is that it is conducive to strengthening the centralization of the lord's power. The disadvantage is that it requires a large number of outstanding talents to assist.

When the government is in order, the people are harmonious. Unreasonable government orders can easily lead to chaos.

The second is the enfeoffment system, which is also welcomed by the lords.

The emergence of the enfeoffment system in the previous life has its roots and soil. One is the major forces represented by the Handan Six Hegemons. They are big and big, and their internal rights demands are also intricate.

In order to balance this right appeal, enfeoffment is an acceptable choice for both parties.

The reason why it is not visible now is because the land of a county is too small, and it is meaningless to divide it out. Therefore, a tacit understanding is generally formed within the major forces.

Before the county town, it was unanimous to the outside world.

After the county town, start to divide the cake. The further you go to the back, the bigger the territory, the more cities there are, and the more people will stand up to share the cake.

In the end, through enfeoffment and family blood as the link, an unusually large group was formed.

Not only that, in fact, the major forces are secretly making the next big move.

In the Battle of Changping, why was the Yanhuang League able to win over so many lords and stand by their side?

Favors, contacts, etc., are all just appearances, and more importantly, there are some lords standing behind them, who are basically members of the families of the major forces.

They usually don't show mountains and don't show water.

Take Dichen's Handan County as an example. At the beginning of the establishment of Handan Village, the imperial family had already arranged for the clan members to obtain village building tokens through the task of building a village, and then built the territory in the surrounding area of ​​Handan Village.

Once Handan County, or Handan County, borders on these territories, they will immediately change their banners and integrate into the Handan County system in the form of enfeoffment.

In this way, Handan County has so many internal responses, and it takes almost no effort to integrate the surrounding territories. Some innocent lords are still trying to form an alliance with the surrounding territories to fight against Handan County.

Unexpectedly, within their alliance, there are members of the Imperial family hidden.

For these lords, how sad it is, they have already fallen into the net of others, and they are still ignorant.

Such a big deal can only be played by big forces.

Common people dare not even think about it.

Therefore, the tip of the iceberg that Ouyang Shuo speculated before was not aimless.

There is also a group that is very fond of enfeoffment. They are the major alliances headed by local tycoons that have quietly risen recently.

In the early days of the alliance, it was unanimous to the outside world, and the contradictions were not obvious.

When other surrounding territories are cleared, only the alliance will be left in this area.

Within the alliance, there should be disputes and guard against each other.

Infighting is undoubtedly the worst option, because it will greatly weaken the strength of the alliance. If one is not well grasped, the status of local tyrants will be lost, or even be annexed by other giants.

So how to solve the distribution of interests within the alliance, so as not to let the alliance fall apart?

The enfeoffment system is the best choice.

The leader is the emperor in name. The members of the alliance are the princes of all sizes. The princes are relatively independent, but also integrated into one body, and they are united in foreign affairs.

From the perspective of historical development, the county system is naturally superior to the enfeoffment system. But when it comes to the game, there is no distinction between top and bottom, and it varies from person to person.

***********

Closer to home.

After Yashan Village was established, the expeditionary force began to get busy again.

The first one is to move the temporary camp to Yashan Village.

Although Ouyang Shuo, as Bing'er's guardian, has the authority to manage the territory, but he can't use his title to act on Bing'er's head, allowing Yashan Village to break through the level limit.

Fortunately, the game is relatively free, you can break through levels and build various buildings.

Therefore, except for the quarries and logging fields that have been built, as well as the salt fields, farms and ports under construction, the rest of the buildings will be planned directly at the county level.

Ouyang Shuo has already prepared the architectural drawings.

Ouyang Shuo directly ordered to change the name of Yashan Village to Yashan City.

The overall planning of Yashan City was naturally in charge of Sun Xiaoyue. During this period of time, Xiaoyue has not been idle. With her design team and the Imperial Guard Brigade, she has already traveled all over the surrounding area.

The basic urban planning has already taken shape.

According to the plan, the first one is naturally to build the city wall. The dangerous environment in Yazhou determines that only by building a strong city wall can the safety be guaranteed and the people's hearts can be stabilized.

The city wall of Yashan City is planned to be divided into two sections, which are divided into the inner city and the outer city. The inner city wall is three kilometers long, and the outer city wall is ten kilometers long. The scale of the city wall is built with reference to the city wall of Shanhai City.

Because manpower is limited, we can only choose to build the inner city wall first.

Fortunately, the second batch of immigrants is already on their way and will arrive in Yazhou in a few days. After the arrival of the second batch of immigrants, the construction of Yashan City will definitely be accelerated to a new speed.

Ouyang Shuo did not intend to intervene in the specific urban construction, and left it to Bai Nanpu and Sun Xiaoyue to take care of it.

After Yashan City was built, the grassroots government officials brought in began to be quickly formed and put into work according to the unified structure of the territory.

Bai Nanpu was appointed by Ouyang Shuo as the deputy city guard of Yashan City, responsible for the preliminary construction of Yashan City. As for the official candidate for the city guard, Ouyang Shuo still planned to appoint a powerful person to sit in the city.

After simply settling things in Yashan City, Ouyang Shuo was ready to return to Shanhai City.

Not only because there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in Shanhai City, but also February 20th is the annual New Year's Eve, so he has to go back.

What worries Ouyang Shuo is that Song Jia is still practicing in Wuzhishan. Every day, Song Jia would report Ouyang Shuo's safety through the alliance channel.

According to Song Jia, her martial arts is on the verge of breaking through, and she will not be able to return to Yashan City for the time being. It is estimated that this Spring Festival, she will have to spend in the mountains.

As for the adventure mission that Ouyang Shuo mentioned before, Song Jia did not encounter it.

For this kind of thing, it is even more necessary to talk about chance, and it cannot be forced.

February 18th of the second year of Gaia.

Ouyang Shuo arranged the Yashan affairs properly, and brought Binger and general Fan Lihua back to Shanhai City from the newly formed teleportation array in Yashan City.

As for the Imperial Guard Brigade, they still have to stay in Yashan City for a period of time.
