Chapter 928: The Magnificent Power of Han (Fifty-Two)

As the New Year approaches, Jicheng is gradually recovering its vitality. The fleeing people of Jicheng gradually return to Jicheng. There are more and more pedestrians on the street. Thanks to the efforts of Sihai Business, one shop after another After reopening, the shelves in the shop were refilled with goods. Due to the strong price inflow from Sihai Trading, prices in Jicheng did not rise rapidly, but remained within a reasonable range. The most critical food, also because of Zhengdong Mansion transferred a large amount of grain from Jishi, Dayan, Hejian, Yuyang and other places, thus driving down the price of grain. This was good news to the residents of Jicheng who had just fled back.

A large number of troops from the Eastern Expeditionary Army marched to Jicheng, which also brought unlimited business opportunities around Jicheng. The Eastern Expeditionary Army did not lack food, but they needed all kinds of vegetables, meat, eggs and poultry every day, and a large amount of charcoal and charcoal for heating every day. It was a temporary purchase. After the first batch of traveling merchants boldly sold the goods to the military camp and made a small fortune, more and more people from the surrounding rural areas carried burdens and pushed carriages, forming a circle around the military camp. small market

The Zhengdong Army's prices were fair and the children were honest. It soon formed a good reputation among the people and attracted more people. After these people made money from the army, they would naturally go to the city to spend money. The Chinese New Year is coming, and the mother-in-law and dolls at home need to buy some new clothes and buy some New Year goods. Although this year is not good due to the war, the New Year still has to be celebrated.

Outside Jicheng, the four divisions of the Young Guards have withdrawn to the area around Jicheng, and other ministries and armies each have an army of more than a thousand people who have moved around Jicheng, because on the first day of the Lunar New Year, , a grand military parade will be held, and all ministries and armies will appear at the founding ceremony.

Ministers from various places under the control of the Zhengdong Mansion are also rushing to Jicheng. The first to arrive are those counties further away. The first to arrive is Kumamoto, which is far away in Liaodong, the newly surrendered land of Liaodong. So far, Zhengtong Prefecture has not stationed formal local officials anywhere, and is still under military control. The army controls local civil affairs and people's livelihood. While exterminating stubborn bandits in various places, it also carries out production simultaneously. The person mainly responsible for all this is Kumamoto. Once he arrived in Jicheng, Luo Weiran stayed behind.

Along with Kumamoto, who arrived at Jicheng, in addition to the thousand Liaodong garrison troops who were preparing to appear at the military parade, the most eye-catching thing was the large number of chiefs of foreign tribes in different colors. The chief of the tribe arrived at Jicheng when Kumamoto's cavalry arrived. At that time, everyone was really paying attention. Although Jicheng had always been the capital of the Yan Kingdom and the people were well-informed, it had never happened before that they saw so many transformed barbarians at one time. Kumamoto led them across the street in a swaggering way. Naturally, That’s what everyone is watching

The second person to arrive was Sun Xiao. Like Kumamoto, Sun Xiao brought a large number of Xiongnu tribal leaders. The Eastern Conquest Army has been conquering the east and west for many years. The Xiongnu cavalry has made great contributions. A large number of Xiongnu officers have filled the Eastern Conquest Army. , even among the high-ranking officers, there are He Lanxiong, Gongsun Yi, Luo Lei, He Lianbo and others. In Jishi County, Liaoxi County, Dayan County and other places, the Huns lived together with the locals, and some Huns even called themselves The same is actually true for the locals in these places, but what is commonplace in those places is new in Jicheng. After these Xiongnu tribes attached themselves to Zhengdong Mansion, in these years, in addition to providing cavalry to the Zhengdong Army, In addition to their military resources, they were also integrated into the Zhengdong Mansion economically, making them rich in financial resources. This time, Gao Yuan stood on his own behalf for Yan. These Xiongnu tribes realized that they were very powerful, and of course they were also proud of them. Yan, as Sun Xiao came in to congratulate him, he naturally dug out the costumes from the bottom of the box, feasting the eyes of the people of Jicheng

And among this huge team, an extremely ordinary carriage was sandwiched in it. It entered Jicheng inconspicuously and immediately checked into the post house. Of course the people in Jicheng did not know that in this seemingly ordinary carriage, there was someone sitting in it. But he is a very unusual person. He is Zhou Yuan, the former Taiwei of Yan Dynasty.

As the ministers from the two farthest places arrived, in the following days, Wu Kai, the governor of Jishi County, Zheng Jun, the governor of Liaoxi County, Fan Dengke, the governor of Langya County, Wu Ci'an, the governor of Hejian County, and Wu Shenghao, the governor of Yuyang County , Daijun County Governor Zhao Yong, Cangzhou County Governor Kong Side, Fenzhou County Governor Lin Yide, Gushan County Governor He Taichong, Luoyang County Governor Chu Xiuhong also arrived one after another, and Minzhou County Governor Li Can, Kunzhou County Governor Sheriff Moren was originally in Jicheng

Special mention should be made of Gushan County and Luoyang County, which are the border areas between Yan State and Qi State. The last time the Qi people entered the country, these two counties were almost swept away. The senior officials of the two counties fled into Jicheng in embarrassment. They did not want Jicheng They failed to hold on, and eventually became prisoners of the Qi people. However, they were able to save their lives because of their special status. After the Eastern Expeditionary Army took back Jicheng, Ye Zhong's Southern Group Army immediately entered these two counties, and the officials of these two counties because of Familiar with the local situation, he was sent back to regain power. In fact, these two counties have important figures in the Eastern Expeditionary Army. One is Xu Yuan, who was born in Luoyang County and is now the commander of the Northern Group Army of the Eastern Expeditionary Army. The other It was Meng Chong, the deputy commander of the Eastern Group Army and the commander of the First Army. Both of them were generals at the core of the Eastern Army. However, these two people were disliked by thousands of people locally and were not welcomed by the local superiors. They were sent to Yuyang, where they met Gao Yuan and began their new life journey.

This time, He Taichong, the governor of Gushan County, and Chu Xiuhong, the governor of Luoyang County, came to Jicheng. In addition to the important event of Gaoyuan's founding of the country, they also prepared a very generous gift and prepared to meet these two former subordinates. , Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, the situation has changed. Now Xu Yuan and Meng Chong are in high positions of authority, but these two important figures in the Yan Kingdom were very nervous, fearing that if one of them failed to deal with it, they would be killed. He reached out and pinched the two of them to death. This time, he spent a lot of money.

With the arrival of the civil affairs officials from various places, military generals also began to arrive in Jicheng one by one. Different from the arrival of civilian officials, these military generals brought the troops that were about to appear in Jicheng. These soldiers were all selected soldiers from the army. , not only are they all tall and mighty, but they must also be soldiers with outstanding military achievements. These people wore brand-new military uniforms and were fully equipped when they entered Jicheng, attracting cheers from the people of Jicheng. In the hearts of most people in Jicheng, the Yan Kingdom It has become a thing of the past, and now this mighty army is the master of the king who will save them from the clutches of Qi people.

Each of the four major armies sent out an infantry battalion and a cavalry battalion to participate in this military parade. The most eye-catching thing was naturally the cavalry that came to undergo the parade. There were four cavalry battalions plus a Hun cavalry battalion. Donghu Cavalry Camp, 6,000 cavalrymen rode into Jicheng on selected war horses. This was the first time for Jicheng people to see so many cavalry and such tall and powerful horses. In addition to being amazed, they also admired the horses. The new dynasty that will be established is full of confidence

However, what surprised the people of Jicheng was not over yet. After the army arrived in Jicheng, many more troops entered Jicheng. These high-spirited troops were dressed differently from the previous troops and were equipped with different weapons. , just the most basic waist knife and spear, and no armor.

In fact, these are not regular troops, but militia teams from Liaoxi County, Jishi County, and Hejian County, which were the first to belong to the Zhengdong Mansion. They will form three square formations during the military parade, each with phalanx of five hundred people

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Qi, the chief minister of the State of Zhao, led the Zhao State delegation to arrive

On the same day, Wu Qi, the chief assistant of Wei State, arrived with his delegation.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, Tian Fucheng of Qi State arrived with a delegation. I don’t know whether it was a deliberate arrangement or an unintentional coincidence. At the same time, another envoy from Qi State, led by Tian Yuanyuan personally, also arrived in Jicheng. The two missions Entering Jicheng from different city gates, I bumped into a man standing on the street.

The two brothers and ministers, who each controlled half of Qi State, glared angrily. Their subordinates drew swords at each other, and they actually started to confront each other on the street.

The people of Jicheng, who have been accustomed to watching the excitement these days, screamed and fled in all directions. Soldiers from the First Division of the Young Guards stationed in the city also arrived at the scene as soon as possible to isolate the two sides.

"What happened next?" Gao Yuan was full of interest, "Godsend you, you really have a bad taste. Is this a deliberate arrangement by him?"

Cao Tianci on the side said with a smile: "Your Majesty Mingjian, this is indeed a deliberate arrangement by our Supervisory Yuan. The Qi people are now our pocketbook. If we stimulate them a little, we may be able to get more benefits!"

"How was it solved in the end?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile.

"The second young master of the Tian family has been greatly stimulated." Cao Tianci said with a smile: "The eldest young master of the Tian family is carrying the banner of the King of Qi. He is also accompanied by the chief minister of the Qi State, a prince and a princess of the King of Qi, and the ceremony is in order. , Holding credentials, Mei Hua, who went to mediate the dispute, of course asked Mr. Tian Er to make way for Mr. Tian. "

"Oh, what did Mei Hua say?" Gao Yuan asked

"Meihua regards Mr. Tian as the official envoy of the Qi State, and calls Mr. Tian as the local envoy. Naturally, it is justifiable for Mr. Tian to change his name."

"Tian Er is so convinced."

"You can't be convinced!" Cao Tianci said: "That guy Mei Hua is full of murderous intent. Before Young Master Tian could say a few words in defense, Mei Hua had already drawn out his knife and suppressed Young Master Tian's words. The brothers of the first division forced the second master Tian's men to one side and let the first master Tian pass through first."

Gao Yuan burst into laughter, "Second Young Master Tian beat Young Master Tian so hard that he was unable to find his way. He was retreating steadily. He had to pay us another ransom in advance and asked us to release another group of Qi troops back. He was so proud on the battlefield. Mr. Tian Er is holding back his temper here, so naturally he is not angry at all."

"Well, I heard that Yi Bin is back and will send Tian Feng back to Mr. Tian," Gao Yuan said with a smile, "Tell him, the next time, it won't be as simple as today."

"Understood!" Cao Tianci nodded repeatedly. This was to let Mr. Tian understand that he was humiliated today because of his insecurity (to be continued...)
