Chapter 715 Telegram Conference
From Xihe to Wuyuan to Shuofang, the area is actually the Hetao area.
As the saying goes, the Yellow River has many harms, only rich ones. During the Warring States Period, King Wuling of Zhao expanded his territory to the Yinshan Mountains and established Yunzhong County. During the Qin Shihuang period, Meng Tian attacked the Xiongnu in the north, and established Yunzhong and Jiuyuan counties. During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, Wei Qing defeated the Huns Loufan and Aries Kings, and established Wuyuan County and Shuofang County.
After a century of development, the people of the Han Dynasty induced the Yellow River to irrigate, which made agriculture develop rapidly and became a livable place. However, in recent decades, the Xianbei and the Huns have successively invaded each other, causing local people to be either plundered as slaves or fled to the mainland, making border towns a wasteland.
Ma Qiang also figured it out. What he wanted to strengthen was the proportion of Han people in the border army. Instead of immigrating to Taiyuan and other places, it was better to immigrate to places like Wuyuan and Shuofang.
Wang Ze bowed and said, "Ming Gong, Xihe, Wuyuan and other places are now mostly under the hands of the Huns... If you want to immigrate to these counties, it will probably be difficult."
"Huns? I have already sent Huchuquan back to meet Yu Fuluo. As for immigration, where do I want to immigrate and what do I have to do with the Huns?
If the Huns want to stop him, let him stop him and try it!”
Ma Qiang's words were filled with the spirit of golden swords and iron horses. In an instant, Wang Ze suddenly felt that he was not facing the General of the Northern Expedition, but the Emperor Wu of Han in history books.
"This matter is related to the overall situation of Hebei and is the biggest thing in Bingzhou in the next one or two years. Wang Jun Governor, you are from Taiyuan, and you are the most familiar with the affairs of Bingzhou. I want you to take charge of the entire immigration work. As for Yanmen County, I want General Gao Lan to take over you. What do you think?"
Among the four pillars, Gao Lan is the least famous one. He is neither as brave as Yan Liang or Wen Chou nor Zhang He's talent in commanding the army. He even disappeared directly into the long river of history after the Battle of Guandu.
Because Lao Luo could not collect his information, and he was still a general in the early stage, he arranged to go to Changbanpo to add experience to Zhao Yun. However, in fact, his strength is not weak, who can surpass many Hebei generals.
In the future, Yanmen will inevitably become a sharp knife that stabs the grassland, and a general who can conquer and fight is more suitable to be the county magistrate here.
Of course, Ma Qiang also wanted to wash away Wang Ze's mark in Yanmen. During his years in Yanmen, Wang Ze has lived and died with the people of Yanmen. Although Ma Qiang admired Wang Ze very much, he did not want the prestige of the local county magistrates to be too high.
Too high, it is not a good thing for Ma Qiang and Wang Ze.
Wang Ze hesitated for a moment and said, "Ming Gong has trust and should serve him. He just wants to immigrate. He must first ask the Huns to surrender and withdraw from the counties, and second, he needs food supplies, otherwise there will be chaos."
"I told you that you don't need to worry about the matter of the Huns. As for the grain... I conquer the General's Mansion of Peking and Yangzhou, and Xuzhou is both for friendship. Although Xuzhou has suffered a war this year, Yangzhou's inventory is abundant. In addition, there is Jingzhou and Yizhou's grain and grass that can go down the river to Yangzhou.
Let’s do this. After you go down, I will send someone to connect with you. You want to estimate how much food and grass is needed if all the Black Mountain Army is moved to the northwest counties of Bingzhou!"
Seeing that Ma Qiang was so determined, Wang Ze no longer refused and agreed to this matter.
Ma Qiang looked at Kou Xian and said, "Yunzhong, the assessment of officials in various counties and counties in Bingzhou should be accelerated. Once the assessment fails, you must immediately resign. There are many students in Jizhou and Qingzhou that can enrich the area. How much does your gap mean I will make up for you!"
The population of Bingzhou is not large, so Ma Qiang still has this kind of official reserve.
After talking about some details, Ma Qiang waved his sleeves and asked the few people to leave, then he got up and stretched.
Ah~~ So tired~~
Being an official is really annoying ~~
After the government affairs are finished, we still have to deal with military affairs.
With the surrender of a large number of Yuan army officers and soldiers, the acquisition of these people became the second most important thing for the Northern Expedition Army to capture the counties and counties in Bingzhou.
Ma Qiang came to the newspaper sending room. He had to discuss such a major event with Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others. Thanks to the telegram, several people thousands of miles apart did not need to go to the place to discuss it.
At this time, in addition to Ma Qiang, there were five members of the Military Commission. Ma Qiang were originally planning to include Liu Yu in the Military Commission, but when Liu Yu learned about the functions of the Military Commission, he immediately refused. In his words, the Supervisory Commission should be able to supervise all officials in Ma Qiang's previous statement, so naturally he should be able to supervise the Military Commission. Since this is the case, he, as the chairman, cannot join the Military Commission.
Don’t say, this political awareness is high.
Han Fu knew that he was lucky to join the Military Commission, so no matter what the plan was, he would agree as long as Ma Qiang agreed, and he would abstain from Ma Qiang if he was not there, which seemed extremely well-behaved. Therefore, the four people who discussed this matter with Ma Qiang were Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Huang Zhong and Duan Ying.
Before, Ma Qiang was dealing with government affairs, and Huang Zhongze had been sending a newspaper to Guangzong here to discuss. Anyway, it was snowing heavily and all military operations were suspended, so Huang Zhong no longer needed to go to the front line to command.
"Six armies?" Ma Qiang looked at the military expansion plan formulated, looked at Huang Zhong and smiled, "Your appetite is quite good."
As the military representative, Huang Zhong touched his beard and laughed, "Ming Gong, Bingzhou is the place of four battles. Guanzhong is in Henan, and there are also Yanzhou and Xuzhou. There are six troops that expand the army. I am still worried that it will not be enough to divide it in all directions."
Ma Qiang sighed and said, "You were not here before. A strange man just came. He said that the world will have a severe drought in the next two or three years. I have heard from Master Gan that he has some skills. If you say such things, it should be groundless and there must be a reason for it."
Therefore, we will focus on development in the next two or three years, so we won’t want the Central Plains for the time being, but we can consider it in Guanzhong.”
"Ming Gong, do you mean?"
"There are a lot of expansion of six troops at once. In this way, we will also seek the opinions of several gentlemen."
Ma Qiang said to the correspondent soldier, "To the Military Commission of General Guangzong's Office, Hebei is about to unify, and there will be no major war in the next two years. Is it necessary to expand the six armies at this time? Ma Ziyu!"
Since he knew that a wide range of natural disasters would occur in the next two or three years, Ma Qiang was ready to slow down his attack on the Central Plains, otherwise it would be easy to take over and difficult to manage. He would not have so much food to feed the people of the Central Plains.
In Guangzong City, Jia Xu and Guo Jia were also waiting for Ma Qiang's call in the newspaper room. With the sound of Didi's telegram, Ma Qiang's opinions were transmitted to the two of them along the radio waves.
"Ming Gong thinks there are more than six armies? Does it mean that you are not ready to pacify the Central Plains quickly?" Guo Jia saw from Ma Qiang's telegram that Ma Qiang's change in attitude towards pacifying the Central Plains.
"I'm afraid there has been some changes, so why not ask."
