Chapter 195 New Officials Take Three Fires

The powerful family wanted to take the opportunity to expand their land property, because there was a loophole in the land reclamation order, Liu Ye immediately added that the upper limit of each household's reclamation was ten mu, and those who violated it would be severely punished.

With the full cooperation of Liu Ye and Fu Xie, the land reclamation and spring plowing work in Tianshui County gradually started and got on the right track. I heard that after Tianshui County issued the land reclamation order, the residents of many surrounding counties and counties were eager to move, and Tianshui County soon returned. Thousands of families were added, and the population increased to 170,000, and it was still growing slowly.

Wuwei County, official road.

Two carriages drove slowly on the road, surrounded by hundreds of Han soldiers, obviously protecting an important person.

"Stop!"

The leading general of the Han army suddenly waved his hand, and the entire cavalry stopped immediately. The well-trained soldiers of the Han army immediately drew their bows and set up arrows, guarding the two carriages, ready for battle.

"Who is coming?"

There were only a dozen or so riders galloping forward. Although the leader was wearing armor, he didn't have any killing aura on his body, and he looked quite weak.

"In Xiazhi Zhongchengqiu, I heard that the governor was appointed, so I came here to greet you."

The leading general frowned, turned around and walked to the side of the carriage, and said through the curtain: "Inspector, the person who came is Zhizhong Chengqiu, may the Inspector come out to see you?"

"kindness."

There was a loud voice from behind the curtain, and then one hand gently opened the curtain, revealing a resolute face with thick black eyebrows and tight lips, which seemed to be a person with a popular personality.

He opened his mouth and said: "This official is mean, Cheng Zhizhong is polite."

Cheng Qiu stepped forward slightly: "The Governor of Zuo is waiting at the governor's mansion, please come with me, Governor Geng."

Geng Bi nodded, and told the escorting general beside him, "Follow him."

Under the guidance of Cheng Qiu, Geng Bi's convoy followed closely behind him, and drove unimpeded all the way into Gusu City, the seat of Wuwei County. After Cheng Qiu dismounted, he followed the guards and walked straight to the governor's mansion.

As soon as Geng Bi entered, he saw a gray-haired old man stand up slowly, and said with a smile: "Inspector Geng, Zuo has been waiting for a long time."

Geng Bi took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "I have been waiting for the governor Zuo for a long time. Geng has some important matters in the state and asks the governor for advice. I hope Zuo Gong will not hesitate to give me advice."

Zuo Chang served as the governor of Liangzhou for seven or eight years. It can be said that he has lived in the frontier fortress for a long time. The old man is going back to his hometown to farm."

Geng Bi asked: "I also heard about the Northwest War when I was in Beijing. Although the Han army lost, I don't know how the battle is going?"

Zuo Chang sighed and said: "Liangzhou was originally a place where Hu and Han mixed together, now apart from this disturbance, it is also reasonable. Originally, the imperial court sent Zuo Cheqi Huangfusong to lead an army to suppress it, and forced more than ten Qiang people with the great victory in Linjing Don't dare to act presumptuously, once this Zhang Wen comes, hehe"

As the governor of Liangzhou, Zuo Chang naturally communicated with Zhang Wen, the chariot and cavalry general who was ordered to conquer the west, and knew the details of the battle report, so he told the battle situation exactly, and also offered his own comments by the way.

"Dong Zhuo retreated with his entire army, it was quite strategic, but he is good at preserving strength."

"Generals Zhou Shen and Zhang Cheqi, Yuan Pang are the same as the gangsters, and they are not in a hurry to attack at all."

"This Liu Ye is a brave general." Mentioning Liu Ye, Zuo Chang talked eloquently: "Liu Ye was originally Huangfusong's old subordinate, and he accompanied Zuo Cheqi to calm down the Yellow Turban. He was Zuo Cheqi's favorite general. Zuo Cheqi knew that he was transferred. Li, so I left this favorite general in Liangzhou, and the left car rider really had the foresight."

Zuo Chang admired Huangfusong very much, who knew how to serve as a soldier, so he was naturally quite pleasing to Liu Ye.

A light flashed in Geng Bi's eyes: "But that Liu Yuqing who said, 'Turn the tide when it is already down, help the building when it is about to fall, when the country is in crisis, it is the time when the ministers are doing their best'?"

Zuo Chang smiled: "That's right, this Liu Ye's reputation spread far and wide. Many people in the surrounding counties have moved to Tianshui County because of the suffering of the war."

"What?"

Geng Bi frowned, and took this matter seriously.

As the governor of the imperial court, how can he accept immigrants without authorization? Immigrants should be sent back to the country, and the population is accepted casually, isn't it becoming a prince?

However, this Liu Ye is good at fighting and has just been named Anxi Zhonglang General, so he is a useful talent.

One must know that Liu Ye was conferred the title of Anxi Zhonglang General, which is considered to have stepped into the ranks of senior generals, and Anxi Zhonglang General has a certain say in the military affairs of the entire Northwest.

Just like Captain Huqiang and Captain Huwuhuan, although they seem to be just captains, they actually have much more power than some generals. It can be tied with the official positions of General Zhenxi and General Zhengxi.

Although Anxi Zhonglang is not as good as the captain of Huqiang, he still has some powers. After all, any official position with the four characters of east, west, south, north is extraordinary, such as the famous Sizheng, Sizhen, and Si'an. Liu Ye was awarded the title of Anxi Zhonglang General, which is equivalent to having the right to speak in the military in Liangzhou.

With the continuous influx of population, the population of Tianshui County has exceeded 170,000, but Liu Ye did not continue to recruit soldiers, but continued to train the original soldiers, keeping the size of the army at about 10,000 people. It is more affluent to support an army of 10,000 people.

Liu Ye, on the other hand, regularly organizes the townspeople to participate in militia training every month. Once a war breaks out, although it is impossible for these militiamen to go out to fight the enemy, they are more than enough to defend the city.

However, Liu Ye's military rank has been promoted to one level, and Zhang Ja and Yu Jin were respectively appointed by him as school lieutenants. Today's Tianshui County can be said to have a strong army and a prosperous scene.

But at this moment, Liu Ye received a letter from the Governor's Mansion.

"Nan Rong, what did you say in the letter?"

The post of governor was originally a local supervisory agency. In order to strengthen the centralization of power, Emperor Wu appointed the governor of the thirteen states. The original salary was less than 2,000 shi. The state pastor became actually the highest military and political officer of a state.

However, in some places, because the prefect was not appointed, the governor was the only one. For example, Tao Qian later used the post of governor of Xuzhou to guard Xuzhou.

Fu Xie gently unfolded the letter, and after reading it carefully for a while, he couldn't help frowning.

"Yuqing, the newly appointed governor Geng Bi wrote a letter to praise us for our responsibility to protect the land and keep the people safe, but"

In Geng Bi's letter, he ostensibly praised the contributions of Liu Ye and others, but in fact he warned Liu Ye: the residents who have already migrated are fine, but they are not allowed to accept immigrants in the future.
