Chapter 1841: Renzi rolls the prefectures and counties to gradually show their prestige (fourth update, please vote!)
The situation in the city has finally stabilized, and Feng Ziying feels relieved.
The refugees come in force, but as long as they are properly arranged, especially if they have confidence in food, they are divided and disintegrated, and then they are organized into construction teams after being disrupted, they will soon form habits and become regular and orderly.
As long as they work hard, they can have enough to eat, and the family members can also have rice and porridge to support them. These people are relatively simple-minded and don't have high demands, so they naturally become less angry and act as "construction workers" honestly. ".
By stabilizing these hundreds of thousands of refugees, the capital city will not be in chaos. From the news fed back from various sources now, it seems that the White Lotus Sect is not yet ready for a large-scale uprising, and because of targeted arrangements, These refugees were not easily taken away by the White Lotus Sect, so this also gave Feng Ziying some peace of mind.
But the White Lotus Sect has always been a scourge. The views of the Ministry of Punishment are also consistent with Feng Ziying's. In other words, Liu Yishui of the Ministry of Punishment is obsessed with highlighting his abilities through a major case, so naturally he will not give up such a case. Opportunity, then it is naturally the best choice to dig deeply, penetrate into the inside, and then eradicate all the roots.
Of course, Feng Ziying is also happy to see the cooperation with the Ministry of Punishment to completely eradicate the hidden danger of the White Lotus Sect. The power of Shuntian Mansion alone is not enough to do it, so relying on the resources of the Ministry of Punishment to handle this case is the best choice.
However, for now, the in-depth investigation of the case is going smoothly, but it will take time to completely solve this scourge by taking a long-term approach to fishing for big fish.
The situation in Beijing and central China has stabilized, but the war in Shandong is imminent.
As the Shanxi Army and Jizhen Army successively arrived in the Hejianfu area, and the main force of the Northwest Army also entered the Guide line, the situation on the canal line surrounding Luxi and Lubei suddenly became tense.
More than 150,000 troops gathered around Luxi and Lubei, and the logistics support of the entire army also became a big problem.
Hejian, Daming, Guide and other prefectures have become the main supply areas for grain and grass supplies, which has also put great pressure on the governments of these places. This pressure has also been transmitted to the surrounding areas. The imperial court has also sent personnel from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of War to these places. Supervise the supply of supplies in each area.
It was under such circumstances that Feng Ziying went south, as long as he had to go to the counties of Dong'an, Dacheng, Wen'an, and Wuqing. On the one hand, these counties had to bear the heavy responsibility of transporting supplies to Hejian and bear a large amount of labor and food. , on the one hand, we must also be prepared for follow-up.
Of course, another purpose of going south is to go to Tianjin Wei. It has been more than a month since Wang Xifeng gave birth. If she doesn't go, Feng Ziying is really worried that Wang Xifeng will go crazy.
Traveling south by boat, although water transportation has been interrupted, this does not mean that the entire canal is no longer navigable. Ships still go south and north, but the line north of Dezhou, Shandong and Hejian Prefecture is interrupted, especially important The transportation of materials such as grain, cloth, and iron materials has been suspended and included in the embargoed materials.
Feng Ziying’s first stop was Wuqing.
Wuqing and Dong'an are close to each other. The Fenghe River between the two counties is actually a branch of the Sanggan River that flows into the Triangle Lake after it bifurcates at Marco Polo Bridge. This area is all flat and has good farmland. Only the area near the Triangle Lake is full of swamps and hills. , there is a lot of sandy land.
Feng Ziying stayed in Wuqing for a short time, and then went to Dong'an.
He Fengsheng did an outstanding job in Dong'an. Although he arrived in Dong'an for a short time, Corporal Li Xian asked farmers and rewarded them for farming. He also provided extensive relief during the severe drought. He also organized some of the victims to dig ditches and build canals along the Triangle Lake area. , not only won praise from the public, even the usually harsh Dong'an gentry had to admit that this Huguang guy still had some abilities.
Of course, this is also inseparable from Feng Ziying's full support. If there is not enough relief and food support, He Fengsheng would not be able to open up the situation so quickly. If you want to leave, you won't even do anything decent, just want to make the local gentry listen. If you call for donations of food and donations, that is simply impossible.
"Why don't I know? I originally wanted Luyou to go to Miyun, but didn't I put it on hold? I could only let Luyou go to Xianghe. He just left not long ago, so I didn't disturb him and let him spend a few months to adapt. If a person from the south of the Yangtze River wants to gain a foothold in our northern land, he has to work harder and spend more thought." Feng Ziying sighed, "But according to the feedback, Lu You is more flexible than I expected, and his methods are very sophisticated. Gao Ming, he fettered a squire in their county for ten days, and the situation was suddenly opened up. Moreover, the squire had to kowtow and beg for mercy, thanking him for letting him go, which made me admire him with admiration."
"Lu You's ability is actually quite impressive among our classmates, but he has always kept a low profile. Xianghe is in his hands. Ziying, you don't have to worry. It will take at most two years to comb your hair smoothly..." He Fengsheng said sincerely.
"Luyou can do it, but what about you, Ke Yao, don't tell me it will take two years." Feng Ziying smiled half-heartedly, "Don't think I don't know your tricks, do you have plans for the area around Triangle Lake?" "
"I have contacted the water bandits in Sanjiaodian..." He Fengsheng did not hide it, "They were originally a group of poor people who could not survive, and there were also some escapees from Tianjin Wei, and it should be said that this group was larger in number. , of course their origins are originally from the surrounding states and counties here..."
"What are you going to do?" Feng Ziying became interested. This lake bandit can't be recruited just by recruiting him. Not to mention a county magistrate, even he, the Shuntian Prefecture, doesn't have the ability to recruit two to three thousand lake bandits. This is the power that the imperial court only has.
"I found Mr. Chai, and it happened that Ji Zhen's army went south and needed Master, so I incorporated this group of people into Minzhuang in the name of Master. I trained them first and prepared them to go south to follow Mr. You's Jizhen army in March. In this way After this battle is over, they can come back. There is a lot of wasteland over there in Liangcheng Suo. If you are willing to join the army, you can go to Liangcheng Suo. If you are not willing to join the army, I plan to arrange it for them in Triangle Dian. Reclamation on the edge."
He Fengsheng had obviously considered various possibilities and planned carefully.
Feng Ziying felt that she still underestimated her classmates.
It turns out that I have always felt that I have a great advantage as a time traveler. In the early days, I was indeed not comparable to classmates such as He Fengsheng, Fan Jingwen, and Lian Guoshi. Many of my ideas that could break out of the stereotypes had miraculous effects, so I subconsciously I regard these close classmates around me as indigenous people like other people of this era.
But it is obvious that many of these students' concepts and ideas have been affected by their long-term relationship with themselves, who like to be independent. Once they are given the opportunity to take charge independently, they will immediately burst out with different inspirations and dare to challenge themselves. Learn on your own and come up with methods that other officials dare not think of or do.
“Ke Yao, you are so bold. You bypassed the Ministry of War and directly recruited so many people, and you also took advantage of Liang Chengsuo’s idea..." Feng Ziying seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Ziying, I'm thinking about you. Wen'an, Dacheng, Baoding, Dong'an, Yongqing, and Wuqing counties have all suffered greatly from the lake bandits in Triangle Lake. Now I'm taking a strange risk to settle these people. , all the troubles in this area have been eliminated at once, and the public security has been improved. You, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, should thank me." He Fengsheng laughed, "Even Mengzhang will definitely thank me. But it is a great thing to get it done once and for all. For Ji Zhenjun, it also reduces the pressure on local masters, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
Feng Ziying pondered for a moment and then said: "Ke Yao, we need to be more cautious about this matter. As you said, it involves all counties, and it seems to be beneficial to all counties, but you also know that these days, you can't do things by yourself. There are many people who are envious of others' achievements. Do you dare to say that the officials in Yongqing, Wuqing, and Wen'an counties are all grateful to you for solving their troubles? I'm afraid not necessarily."
Feng Ziying considers the problem from the perspective of the inherent evil of human nature.
He Fengsheng, Fan Jingwen and Wu Zong were arranged by themselves to serve as magistrates in various counties of Shuntian Prefecture. There is no doubt that these officials who were originally working in secret felt the pressure and crisis.
Originally, they were domineering in these places, and many of them colluded with the local gentry. They would implement the imperial decrees that were beneficial to them and selectively implement those that were not beneficial to them. The situation was particularly prominent during the Wu Daonan era.
After I came to Shuntian Prefecture, due to various reasons, many things in the early stage still stayed at the prefecture level and did not touch the state and county level. Until the severe drought in the Northland became a foregone conclusion and the confrontation between the imperial court and the Nanjing puppet dynasty After the crisis that might lead to a war was certain, Feng Ziying had to consider taking action against the prefectures and counties in advance, because firstly, this was an opportunity, and secondly, if he didn't take action, he would really be unable to command the lower counties in the future. He was the acting governor of the prefecture. If Yin conducts government affairs, he will be in trouble.
Because of this, he would not hesitate to use various human resources to take the upper-level route, even use the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and also install a few of his own people to strengthen his own strength, and at the same time, it can be regarded as providing support to the officials below. They sounded the alarm and killed the chicken to scare the monkey, in order to control the situation in Shuntian Mansion as soon as possible.
From the current point of view, both He Fengsheng and Fan Jingwen have lived up to themselves and performed impressively. Wu Yan's time is too short to see it yet, and the touch and impact of this action are gradually becoming apparent.
This is the fourth update. Lao Rui is working very hard. Brothers, give me some more votes!
