Chapter 626: Three new counties in Hetao are established
In March, the fourth year of Zhongping.
One month after their marriage, Qin Hao and Liu Mu left Chang'an, but they did not return to Nanyang, but went directly to Jinyang, the seat of Taiyuan.
Shortly after the battle for the Hetao ended, Qin Wen returned to Jinyang to take charge to ensure the stability of the entire Bingzhou.
Before leaving, Qin Wen appointed Yang Ye as the chief general, Qin Yong and Guan Sheng as deputy generals, and led an army of 30,000 to guard Yinshan.
Soon after, Qin Wen sent 200,000 laborers and 70,000 foreign prisoners of war to Yinshan to build Zhenbeiguan day and night.
After everything was arranged properly, Qin Wen returned to Jinyang and began to prepare for the marriage of his daughter Qin Liangyu and his general Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun performed very well in this battle, seriously injuring Zhebie and almost killing Wo Kuotai...
Changshan Zhao Zilong's name has since become awe-inspiring among the major tribes in the grassland, and Qin Wen also abided by the agreement and let the two get married.
When his sister gets married, Qin Hao will of course go to the wedding.
On March 20, Zhao Yun and Qin Liangyu got married in Jinyang. Except for those who were far away from Nanyang and could not reach it, basically all the top officials of the Jin army attended.
If Qin Hao's marriage made most of the girls in the world heartbroken, then Qin Liangyu's marriage made most of the men in the Jin army completely despair.
Most of the unmarried generals in the Jin army really like Qin Liangyu, and among them are: Qin Yu, Qin Lie, Zhang Liao, Guan Sheng...
The reason why they didn't get married was because they wanted to gain a glimmer of hope.
Zhao Yun saved the United States from thousands of troops, which made Qin Liangyu completely devoted to him. As long as Zhao Yun was still alive, they were destined to have no hope, but what if Zhao Yun died in the battle?
There are not so many eventualities in this world. Qin Liangyu will eventually get married to Zhao Yun, and their last hope is finally shattered.
At the wedding banquet, Zhao Yun's scalp was numb when he saw the resentful looks from his colleagues, but he could only go and propose a toast.
As soon as Zhao Yun arrived, Qin Yu grabbed his hand and said drunkenly:
"Brother Zilong, I really envy you. I have liked the eldest lady since I was a child, but the eldest lady has no regard for all men, except you. How come you are so lucky?"
"Since the first time I saw the eldest lady, I, Qin Lie, swore that I would not take it unless it was the eldest lady. However, falling flowers are intentional and flowing water is ruthless."
"Me too, since I saw..."
"Me too……"
"I……"
The generals exchanged words with each other, which eventually turned into a meeting of complaints, and some of the unbearable ones cried bitterly, and those who didn't know thought it was because they were broken in love.
At his wedding, Zhao Yun was extremely embarrassed when so many love rivals burst into tears, but this group of lovelorn people didn't care about that.
"Zilong, you must treat the eldest lady well. If you dare to make the eldest lady feel a little wronged, I will not let you go."
"That's right, the eldest lady marrying you is a blessing you earned in your previous life. You must cherish it!"
Faced with the threats of more than one love rival, what can Zhao Yun do? He was also very desperate and could only nod his head in assurance.
Qin Hao saw that Zhao Yun couldn't leave, so he stepped forward to rescue him.
"Okay, okay, everyone, get out of the way. Zilong has other tables to toast to."
Even though everyone was already drunk, they still did not dare to disobey the young master and subconsciously moved out of the way.
Seeing this, Zhao Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief, cast a grateful look at Qin Hao, and then ran away.
Liu Mu walked to Qin Hao at this time, looked at the generals who continued to drink, and said softly: "Is it really okay to continue like this?"
"Although broken love is not a disease, it is sometimes more terrible than the disease, so it is good to let them vent."

There are still a lot of things waiting for Qin Hao to deal with in Nanyang, so Qin Hao naturally cannot stay in Jinyang, but he has to discuss the management of the Loop with Qin Wen before leaving.
“Father, I think the Hetao can be divided into three parts: north, south, and middle, with one county in each part.
There is Yinshan County in the north, Ningxia County in the middle, and Yinchuan County in the south. Each county will build ten new cities to resettle the population. "
Qin Hao's proposal immediately made Qin Wen's eyes light up. He was having a headache about the management of the Loop, and what Qin Hao said was the best way.
The Jin army originally owned five counties, Taiyuan, Yanmen, Wuyuan, and Yunzhong Dingxiang, with a total population of nearly two million.
With the addition of the three newly established counties of Hetao, the Jin army will have eight counties. This does not include the annexation of the four southern counties.
After Qin Wen pondered for a while, he frowned and said, "Although this plan is good, it's just a bit long-lasting. Besides, there isn't that much labor in Hetao?"
It is naturally impossible to build thirty cities in Hetao in a short time, but Qin Hao already has a solution in his mind, and he relies on population summons.
"Father, there are only 150,000 foreigners in Hetao now, so of course they cannot complete such a large project.
But with the arrival of 200,000 Yellow Turban prisoners of war and the resettlement of refugees in the future, the population of the Hetao will definitely increase, and naturally there will be enough labor to develop the Hetao.
We can choose a base point to build the city in the north, south and middle of the Hetao, and then use this base point as the center to radiate outward little by little until the entire Hetao is covered. "
Seeing that his son had considered all aspects, Qin Wen nodded slowly and added:
"The person who governs the Hetao is a top priority. Wang Meng has done a good job in governing the three counties of the Central and Northern Hetao. The same applies to the Hetao Wan. Haoer, please send him back after you go back. He is the best candidate to govern the Hetao."
Wang Meng's model for governing the three northern and central counties can be applied to the Hetao. Wang Meng, who already has rich experience, is naturally the best candidate for Qin Hao to govern the Hetao.
"What my father said is true, Wang Jinglue is indeed the best candidate."
"I heard that when you were the governor of Nanyang, Hao'er, you recruited many great talents. Now Bingzhou is in urgent need of talents to govern. Hao'er, you can't hide your secrets."
Qin Wen joked with a smile, but Qin Hao could only smile bitterly in return.
"The three counties of Hetao, the three counties of Zhongbei, and the two counties of Yanmen and Taiyuan. Our Jin army currently owns the land of eight counties. Except for the three counties of Yanmen, Taiyuan and Wuyuan, the candidates for the governor of the other five counties are wanted by my father. I’ll give it to Hao’er to appoint you.”
The prefect of Yanmen was Qin Hao's fourth uncle Qin Jian, the prefect of Wuyuan was Fan Zhongyan, and the prefect of Taiyuan was Qin Wen himself, and the prefect was Fa Yan's father Fa Zhi.
Qin Wen took the initiative to hand over the appointment and dismissal of the governors of the five counties to Qin Hao, naturally allowing Qin Hao to expand his influence in the Jin army.
The position of governor of the five counties is no small matter. Qin Hao thought about it for a long time and finally drew up this list.
In the three counties of Hetao, Qu Yuan, the prefect of Yingchuan, Wen Tianxiang, the prefect of Ningxia, and Yang Ye, the prefect of Yinshan.
In the two central and northern counties, Wang Xizhi, the prefect of Yunzhong, and Wang Anshi, the prefect of Dingxiang.
The general manager of Hetao is Wang Meng, and the general soldier is Yang Ye.
