Chai Rong asked that within one day, the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council would come up with a strategy, and Xue Juzheng really had a good idea.

"Your Majesty, the east and west camps, 100,000 imperial guards, are unruly and unruly, and the saints eliminate their military status, return to their hometowns, and impose minor punishments. They are as kind as heaven. However, they do not repent, and they do things arbitrarily and kill the imperial officials, but they are not punished. However, the world is kind, and Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and cannot bear to kill. Therefore, the old minister thinks that these people should be exiled to Yanyun's land, and allow them to make meritorious contributions and settle the border. If they can work diligently and serve the country, they can forgive their crimes. If they still refuse to accept evil, they will be severely punished!"

Chai Rong nodded slightly, "Mr. Xue is thoughtful, have you figured out how to arrange it?"

"The old minister has thought about it. The Champion Hou reorganized households in Youzhou. Ten households are one guarantee and ten guarantees are one mile. This method is very clever. In the army, ten generals are changed to the chiefs of the capital, and the head is the chiefs of the village. One battalion is used as a town to enrich the place and always serve as a barrier to the Great Zhou. They are stationed in peacetime and organized into militias during wartime. The court can raise 100,000 soldiers without spending money on food. It can also reclaim wasteland, prosper Yanyun, and increase annual income. It is really a wonderful strategy to win multiple goals in one fell swoop!"

Xue Juzheng became happier the more he spoke, and he was so energetic.

Chai Rong thought about it carefully and found that there were more benefits to this method.

The imperial guards were placed in the capital city, and Youzhou had just been brought back. Although it wiped out the power of local powerful landlords and implemented the land division. The people were interested in the court, but after all, they had been separated for many years and there was still a great gap between the two sides. If someone was interested in instigating them from the middle, it was very likely to cause a disaster.

The imperial guards were reorganized and interspersed in the middle to form a mixed phenomenon with the Han people in Yanyun. You have me and I have you. Even if you want to rebel, there will be no conditions. Both sides will supervise each other and can integrate with each other.

Yanyun's people are fierce and the imperial guards are domineering, just like the strong to the strong. If ordinary people are sent, they may be bullied to death, but these soldiers are not afraid...

"Well, Mr. Xue's advice is very good, but are you willing to go north to Youzhou?"

"Will!" Xue Juzheng said: "Youzhou has experienced wars, with a sparse population and wasteland. In the past, some of them could be reclaimed. Once they went there, they could live a good life. The old minister suggested that the court could stipulate that it would take five years, and as long as it would take five years, work honestly and make no mistakes. At that time, they could return home and reunite with their relatives."

Chai Rong said: "If everyone has to go home in five years, wouldn't they have planned their plans for nothing?"

Xue Juzheng smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if you don't have five years of experience, most people will live much better than their family. At that time, I'm afraid that it's not that they return home, but that their family members go to Youzhou to take the initiative to surrender. In this way, the number of Han people in the Yanyun land will increase rapidly, and they will always guard their hometown!"

Speaking of this, it was already impeccable, and Chai Rong finally laughed happily.

"Mr. Xue is sincere in planning the country, and I am very pleased. I will add Xue Qing's title of assistant minister and give him a jade belt. My dear friends, you should also like Xue Qing and share my worries."

Xue Juzheng hurriedly gave a gift, and Fan Zhi and others agreed.

Chai Rong said again: "It has been half a month since I ascended the throne. I will restore Youzhou and quell the Zheng Renhui Rebellion. If all the ministers who have made meritorious contributions should be rewarded. The Political Affairs Hall will draw up a list. I will announce it as soon as possible to reward the ministers who have made meritorious contributions!"

...

The new king ascended the throne and always wanted to enthrone the ministers. This time, unlike in the past, there is also the great contribution of regaining Youzhou. Many people are looking forward to it and waiting for it to be on the list.

But there are also some old gods, such as Ye Hua. Apart from giving Xue Juzheng an idea, he stayed silent and didn't even go to the morning court.

Zhao Kuangyi was very unhappy. He felt that his master was too lazy and too ungrateful.

The old father Zhao Hongyin revealed his heart, and Zhao Kuangyi untied many knots. Of course, he still felt that his elder brother was so lucky, but he no longer had such strong jealousy in his heart, and he became more sunny, but he was still petty and liked to plot.

"Master, the person named Xue took away your idea, ran to the Golden Palace, talked freely, and got a rank of servants. He stealed the credit of others and was not embarrassed. I was ashamed of him. I was so shameless." Zhao Kuangyi gritted his teeth and said, "Master, you don't want to be as knowledgeable as an old man. I asked my elder brother to write a letter to impeach the old man and give him some color to see, how about it?"

"Hmph!" Ye Hua said disdainfully: "Xue Juzheng is the Privy Councilor. Your brother is a general under his command. If the following is guilty, that is not a minor crime. Aren't you afraid that Xue Juzheng will wear small shoes for your elder brother?"

Zhao Kuangyi scratched his head and laughed, "Isn't there still a master? My brother won't suffer any loss."

Ye Hua shook his head, "The saint intends to promote civil servants, and I have no choice, let alone the warriors are not good at it and take their own actions. Look, the saint is going to attack the warriors!"

"Is that serious?" Zhao Kuangyi's mouth widened and could stuff a steamed bun in.

Ye Hua didn't say anything, but someone gave him a mansion to Zhao Kuangyi to read it himself.

After Zhao Kuangyi opened it, he found that on the third page, it was recorded that Gao Yun, the governor of the Zhangwu Army, was seriously ill and wrote a letter to request his son Gao Shaoji to be the governor and inherit his position.

The capital of the Zhangwu Army was Yanzhou, an important town in the northwest, and was responsible for defending the Dangxiang people. Moreover, the people in the northwest were fierce, the soldiers had strong combat power, and the emperor was far away. The court could only win over Gao Yunquan and did not dare to do anything to him. Therefore, the Zhangwu Army was like an independent small court.

They do not pay a penny of tax to the court every year, and also require the court to provide food and salary. What's more, the court has not sent any officials to Yanzhou and forced people to go in, which will only turn into a corpse for no reason. Gao Yunquan's domineering arrogance can be seen!

This situation is not surprising. In fact, since the Anshi Rebellion, the vassal states were separatist and the powerful vassal states were like a court. Under the rule, officials were appointed and removed, tax collection, and recruiting troops... All these powers that should belong to the court were enjoyed by the local government.

Moreover, even the power to be elected and removed from the Jiedushi was occupied by the local authorities.

Usually, if a town's governor dies, he will usually pass the throne to his son. If there are several sons, or if there are powerful generals under him, a chaotic battle will be launched. Whoever is the winner and is supported by the ruler will write a memorial to the court and ask the court for appointment. Even if it is not appointed, the other person will not care and take office directly, and you will be in charge of the death of the Emperor Chang'an!

This situation continues, and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms are no exception.

However, after Guo Wei ascended the throne, he tried to change, such as the traditional strong towns, such as the Tianxiong Army, the Guardian Army, the Guide Army, and the Heyang Army... These places were all included in the jurisdiction of the court, and the appointment and removal of the governors and dispatch were arranged by the court.

Taking the Tianxiong Army as an example, the Jiedushi was replaced several times, and he changed from the First Army in Hebei to the first professional engineer, and was completely included in the control of the court.

But there are some special cases, so I want to do this in the Zhangwu Army!

The rituals and music conquests came out from the emperor.

Military power, financial power, and personnel power are the most taboos for the emperor. But there are always martial artists who want to challenge this. If Ye Hua is the emperor, he will definitely not allow it.

The two evils are the least. Instead of watching the military make trouble, it is better to release the civil servants to bite people. At least it is much easier to dismiss a civil servant than to abolish a military general.

"Mr. Marquis!"

Xue Juzheng visited again.

"I am ashamed, please forgive me."

Ye Hua laughed and said, "You are polite to Mr. Xue. I am just talking. You are the one who is really doing things. Your Majesty's reward is also a reward for Mr. Xue's hard work. It should be, what's the shame to say."

"The Marquis is generous and arrogant, and I am so arrogant... but, just..." Xue Juzheng hesitated and wanted to speak but stopped. Ye Hua smiled and said, "Mr. Xue, is there something wrong? Just tell me!"

Xue Juzheng blushed and said, "Nothing can be hidden from the Marquis. The emperor issued an order to the Privy Council to inquire about the matter of Zhangwu Army. I also know that Gao Yunquan and his son have joined each other, which is really a taboo. It should be rejected. In addition, they will select generals. However, Zhangwu Army is far away in the sky, and I am afraid that it will cause trouble, so I am not at the hands and cannot make up my mind... Marquis, please help me again!"

Compared with those masters of the magistrate, Xue Juzheng is quite honest and sincere.

Ye Hua smiled slightly, "Mr. Xue, as far as I know, Gao Yunquan is dead."

"What?" Xue Juzheng jumped. He had read Gao Yunquan's memorial just now, but why did he die in a blink of an eye?

"Gao Yunquan should have died in winter. It has been three months since his baby son kept his mourning. He used his father's banner to plant his own people, which made Yanzhou furious."

Xue Juzheng was so scared that he stood up when he heard Ye Hua's story.

The imperial court and the Privy Council did not know at all, where did Ye Hua hear these things? Can he make a brilliant idea?

Ye Hua smiled, "Mr. Xue, don't be surprised. You forgot that General Yang Ye's wife is the daughter of the Zhe family in Fugu. The Zhe family has been in the northwest for a long time and knows the matter of Zhangwu Army very well."

"oh!"

Xue Juzheng suddenly realized that the Zhe family, no wonder!
Chapter completed!
