For the first time, twenty-three leaders at or above the county level in Yongzhou were supposed to attend the county magistrate meeting, but actually twenty-three county magistrates were present. No one in the entire Yongzhou officialdom was absent from this meeting.
At the meeting, Yongzhou Prefect Zhou Yi reported on the current population, grain harvest, employment and other conditions of Yongzhou counties. At the meeting, he commended outstanding county magistrates such as Delong County, Pinggu County, and Yongdeng County, and called on all cadres to express their gratitude to Zheng Zhibai, Wei Qiuning, and Fu Tongen. Wait for the county magistrate to learn.
At the meeting, the prefect Zhou Yi promoted high-quality crops such as potatoes with a yield of more than 1,000 kilograms per mu, and also proposed many policies to benefit the people, such as "two worries and three guarantees", nine-year compulsory education, and tax reductions.
The magistrates of each county made a guarantee on the spot to Prefect Zhou Yi, guaranteeing that the population within their jurisdiction would double in the coming year.
This plenary meeting of leading cadres at and above the county level in Yongzhou was held very successfully. At the meeting, the Yongzhou government affairs team with the prefect Zhou Yi as the core was established. All county magistrates must be firmly united under the leadership of Zhou Yi as the core.
After the meeting, each of the 23 county magistrates in Yongzhou brought back a cart of potatoes and a cart of seeds. After finishing all this, Zhou Yi could finally sit down and take a breath.
It is said that the more you become an official, the bigger you become, and the more you become an official, the easier it becomes. But Zhou Yi did not feel this feeling.
Yongzhou is a remote place. Although it is large in area, its population is extremely small. The total population of the 23 counties is less than 2 million, and the average population of a combined city is less than 100,000.
We must know that the population of any third-tier city in future generations may be tens or millions.
But now the state of Zhouyi is equivalent to a province in later generations, with a combined population of less than two million!
Sad~
There is a shortage of people, and there is an even greater shortage of talents!
After the meeting, Zhou Yi even called several county magistrates from the three states adjacent to Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou, telling them that if necessary, they could provide money and food to attract the people of the three states and let them settle in Yongzhou. .
I don’t know how many people can be gained just by doing this.
While Zhou Yi was lying on the rocking chair secretly thinking about the future development direction, the sound of rain suddenly came from outside the house!
The sound of dripping rain hit Zhou Yi's auditory nerve bit by bit.
After a long time, Zhou Yi finally realized: "Is it raining?"
This is the first rainy day since Zhou Yi traveled through time.
In the past four years, it had not rained at all in the northern region. The grasslands were covered with withered grass. The horses, cattle and sheep of the Xiongnu and Khitan people were all starved and emaciated.
Now, finally, the long-awaited rain has fallen, and this heavy rain has lasted for three days.
On the northern grasslands, after three days of heavy rain, the originally withered grasslands have grown into patches of lush green.
The grass on the grassland seems to be trying to grow back what it has not grown in the past three years. It is trying its best to sprout and grow.
The Great Prince of the Xiongnu, oh no, now it should be said to be the Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu Karasuma!
He felt extremely happy when he saw that the water plants on the grassland had grown so luxuriantly in these three days.
In Wuwan Shanyu's view, this heavy rain was a special reward for himself and the Huns by sending troops to the Chen Kingdom and the Sun-Eating Wolf God.
Although the Xiongnu themselves fought a civil war for three years and consumed a lot of combat power.
But Karasuma Shanyu believed that his warriors from the Xiongnu and the warriors from the Khitan would definitely be able to swallow up Chen in one go.
The Wuwei Pass was once guarded by the alien nemesis Lin Weiwu, but three years ago he died in order to seize the Wuwei Pass and closed the gate.
Now there are no Chen people worthy of fear from the Xiongnu.
This is indeed the case. Some time ago, his younger brother Atamu infiltrated people and sent news that the Xiongnu army he led and the Khitan King had successfully joined forces, captured Wuwei Pass together, and slaughtered Lin Weiwu's former Mighty Guard army. .
The tens of thousands of Chen people who were driven to the grasslands as slaves are the best evidence, and Karasuma Shanyu was very pleased with this.
It has been quite a while since the last good news came, and now there is no news.
A long time ago, Karasuma Shanyu heard that the capital of Chen State was extremely wealthy and had countless beauties. The people there lived in wooden houses, which were warm and safe. They did not need to be afraid of lone wolves or other ferocious beasts on the grassland.
Karasuma Shanyu now doubted whether his younger brother Atamu and Khitan King Ashina Batu had already invaded the capital of Chen State and enjoyed beautiful women, wine and delicious food there.
Just as Wuwan Shanyu was thinking wildly, his personal guards came in from outside the tent, knelt down on one knee and saluted and reported: "Da Shanyu, there is a group of Khitan warriors from Chen State holding a letter and holding a The brocade box is waiting for your reception outside!"
"Oh? Khitan warriors from the Chen Kingdom? They must be here to report good news, please invite them in!" Karasuma Chanyu thought excitedly.
In this war, apart from victory, Karasuma Shanyu never thought that anything else would happen.
When Karasuma Shanyu excitedly opened the mysterious trophy sent by his younger brother Atamu, he unexpectedly found that his brother Atamu's head was lying quietly in the brocade box.
Karasuma Chanyu couldn't hold even one of them, and Atamu's head in the brocade box rolled to the ground with a grunt.
"What happened? Who killed my dear brother!" An angry roar came from the tent of the Great Chanyu of the Hun Dynasty.
A Khitan man gingerly took out a letter written by Zhou Yi in forged Yan Song's handwriting from his arms and handed it to the angry Wuwan Shanyu.
"Defeated~ Our coalition forces were defeated!"
"How is that possible? Our combined forces total 400,000, which is more than enough to annex the entire Chen Kingdom!" Karasuma Daichanyu roared at the top of his lungs at the Khitan.
Wuwan Chanyu could not understand the Chinese characters of Chen State, so he threw the letter to Su Shigan, one of his subordinates who was a general of Chen State, and asked him to read out the content of the letter.
The letter was short, only one sentence.
It says: If you are in the first grade of junior high school, don’t blame me for being in the fifteenth grade!
Signature: Yan Song!
When that sentence was translated into Xiongnu and spoken to Karasuma Chanyu, Karasuma Chanyu immediately understood the meaning of this sentence.
"Yan Song is blaming himself for going back on his word. After conquering the Wuwei Pass, he also designed to massacre his 200,000 mighty guards." Karasuma Shanyu thought secretly.
"Okay, okay, you Yan Song, you actually slaughtered my 200,000 Changshengtian warriors!"
"I have recorded this grudge. When I come to Chen State in the future, I will definitely stretch your muscles, peel off your skin, boil your oil, and make you into a human skin sky lantern!" Shanyu Karasuma held in his hands! The head of his brother Atamu swore to everyone.
Yan Song, who was far away in Hanyang City, the capital of Chen State, sneezed several times inexplicably on his way home from the next court.
Yan Song thought to himself: "It's hot in summer now. Could it be that I'm also infected with the cold?"
