The Imperial Tiger was the title given to Huo Qubing by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This title meant that Qin Ge was not under the control of the general and was under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.

In the history of the Han Dynasty, this title was generally given to the general in charge of the fifth battalion of the Northern Army, that is, the Imperial Guards. However, due to the resurgence of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the position of lieutenant in charge of the fifth battalion of the Northern Army was revoked. In addition, with the weakening of the royal family, the fifth battalion of the Northern Army was given the title of honorary commander.

Zhijinwu was responsible for the commander-in-chief, and now the eunuch Jian Shuo was appointed as the commander-in-chief.

The emperor first conferred the title of Qin Ge as Captain of Changshui, and now he has successfully conferred the title of Imperial Tiger. Is there any plan?

Just when the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were speculating wildly, Lu Zhi stood up and said: "The three armies have not moved, and the food and grass go first. Qingzhou has become a scorched earth, and there is no food to eat at all. Qin Ge was ordered to go out, so he must solve the food and grass problem! I suggest that

Jizhou produces 1.5 million dans of grain every year, Yanzhou 700,000 dans a year, Xuzhou 700,000 dans a year, and the imperial court coordinates the transportation of 2.5 million dans of grain from other states, and supplies 5.4 million dans of grain and grass to Qingzhou every year, which can barely support hundreds of people.

If there is an army of ten thousand, it will be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and Qin Ge without food and grass will be a tiger without teeth!"

Lu Zhi's grain and grass budget was based on the financial budgets of various states, and it was more than enough to supply Qin Ge's grain and grass logistics.

Regarding Lu Zhi's plan to supply grain and grass, the major noble clans were able to accept it. According to the information obtained from them, Qin Ge had more than 300,000 elite soldiers, Cao Cao's more than 300,000, and Karasuma and Baekje's more than 200,000 elite cavalry.

, and there are an unknown number of evolver troops. Even if the states support it, it is still difficult to feed such a large army!

Of course, the stronger Qin Ge's troops are now, the more beneficial it will be to these Han nobles. After discussion at the court, all tributes in Qingzhou will be temporarily reduced until the bandit rebellion in Qingzhou is over.

Qingzhou's money and grain treasury income was all allocated by Qin Ge himself. Every year, the states provided Qin Ge with food and fodder for millions of troops. This meeting, which was originally expected to be tense, was held so smoothly. All the important officials of the dynasty came out of the court happily.

This is the first time in recent years.

Liu Yan and Liu Biao walked out of the court together and saw Liu Biao's face full of question marks.

Liu Yan smiled slyly and said: "Are you still worried about Qin Ge's title of champion marquis? You must know that to drive a tiger to devour a wolf, in order for the tiger to exert its strength, he must be fed enough meat, so that he will

More ferocious! Do you really think Qin Ge can wipe out the Qingzhou bandits? There are tens of millions of bandits there, and all the people are bandits. Even if millions of troops go there, they can't make a big wave! Jiao He, Kong Rong and others are not the best in the world.

It's hard for Yingcai to move forward when he arrives in Qingzhou. Qin Ge's men and horses are not enough to fill the teeth of the bandits. Even if Xiang Yu is really reborn, it will take more than ten years for those tens of millions of bandits to stand and let him kill! Those old foxes are hiding! Now

The higher they praise Qin Ge, and as time goes by, the light of his achievements will gradually fade. At that time, if they hold Qin Ge accountable for his ineffectiveness in suppressing bandits, and the wall falls and everyone pushes him, the harder he will fall!"

When Liu Biao heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little creepy. Although he didn't have much interaction with Qin Ge, he often heard rumors about him. Such a loyal and courageous hero who was good at fighting was just a tool in the eyes of these old foxes in the court. Wait.

Once his value is exhausted, he will give it up without hesitation.

Liu Yan patted Liu Biao on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "This is power politics! Young man, you are now in charge of a political party. You must remember that everyone must become your tool. If you are not good at it, just change it.

Don’t be sentimental about tools, otherwise you will die without a place to die!”

After speaking, Liu Yan slowly left with his hands behind his back, leaving Liu Biao in front of Weiyang Palace, who was in a daze.

…

The army marched for more than a month, from Youbeiping to the border of Jizhou, and then marched for nearly a month back to Jizhou Prefecture, all the way silent.

The news that Qin Ge was awarded the title of Champion Marquis, Conqueror General, and Qingzhou Governor has spread like wildfire.

When the Yuan brothers and other generals heard that Qin Ge was really so crazy, they wanted to go to Qingzhou to fight for their lives.

Qin Ge's meritorious service awards were really obtained at the cost of his life, and they really couldn't envy him.

Under Qin Ge's account, official titles have been initially conferred based on meritorious service. Tian Feng serves as Qingzhou Biejia, Xu Shu serves as Qingzhou soldier cao, Chen Yuan serves as county commander, Man Chong serves as Le'an county magistrate, and concurrently serves as Qingzhou merit cao, and Mao Jie serves as Qi State Prime Minister.

, Yu Jin served as the captain of Qi State, and Zhao Yun served as the captain of Jinan!

Others such as Liao Hua, Sun Guan, Qin Jiwu, Deng Zhi, Sima Ju, etc. were appointed as county magistrates, such as Liu Pi, Qin Jizong, Qin Jiben, Han Hao, Lu Weihuang, etc., who served as county captains, Qin Jixue, and Qin Jili.

Wait for the scribes to serve as county magistrates.

Other officers and soldiers were canonized as county captains, county magistrates, and village commanders based on their merits. Many soldiers were promoted to hundred commanders, commanders, and corps commanders. Almost half of the officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force were promoted.

In addition, in order to improve the treatment of the soldiers of the expeditionary force, Qin Ge created the positions of Captain Ten Thousands and General Qian based on the experience of later generations. The salary the soldiers received was equivalent to that of county lieutenant and village chief. Although there were no specific official positions, they were promoted on a large scale.

Treatment of soldiers.

Although a lot of military expenditures have been increased, no matter how difficult it is for Qin Ge, it cannot be difficult for the soldiers who fought bloody battles.

However, this canonization greatly exposed the current situation of serious deformity in the development of talents under Qin Ge. There were mostly military generals and few civil servants.

Of course, there are also Kinderman, Guan Zhong, Hei Te Changzhi, Yingzhao, Qianzhao, Tadun, Wei Sanniang, Zang Shun, Chai Jin, Yang Di, etc. who have not been canonized for various reasons, so they can only be allowed to act on their behalf first.

According to the responsibilities, Qin Ge will be promoted after he has established a foothold in Qingzhou.

When they were about to arrive at Jizhou Prefecture, Jiang Kui and other two saints came to say goodbye to Qin Ge, and took away the Mohist disciples. In the world of immortality, Mohism's power is on par with Taoism, but Mohism, like Confucianism, is a school of governance.

However, Confucianism and Legalism emphasize the rule of power, while Mohism's concept is people's autonomy, which is somewhat similar to modern guilds and guilds, advocating that the people unite to confront the rulers and strive for their own interests.

"Bo Xi! This is the White Tiger Order of the Mo family. If you are useful to us in the future, you can come to me with this token! The knights use force to break the rules, and Confucianism and Taoism are incompatible with us, so we will not go to Jizhou!"

After Jiang Kui said goodbye to Qin Ge, he disappeared at the border of Jizhou with his Mohist disciples.

The Mohist philosophy of governance is still very advisable, but these Mohist talents have gone to extremes in their thinking, pursuing black and white, and are opposed to Confucianism. Moreover, although Mohist disciples are very united, they are naturally very resistant to the system. Qin Ge originally wanted to recruit them.

, but now I can't protect myself in Qingzhou, I can only stand firm and plan for the future.

Qin Ge turned his head and looked at the Yang Taoist who was holding a fly whisk in surprise. Due to the relationship between Wujiao and the Yellow Turban Bandits, Qin Ge had always stayed away from the Yellow Turban Taoist lineage.

In addition, the disciples of the Huangjin Dao regarded themselves as the first sect of Xuanmen in the immortal world, and all of them had their eyes set above their heads. If Qin Ge wanted to suppress the expeditionary army, he had to suppress the Huangjin Dao people.

Now that Taoist Sheep appeared, Qin Ge was a little surprised. After all, the Yellow Turban Taoist lineage disliked him. Qin Ge couldn't help but be wary when he thought that the Five Thunder Heavenly Master Order, the most precious treasure of Xuanmen, was in his hands.

Seeing Qin Ge, Jian Kui and Xuan Hao talking happily, they looked at themselves warily.

Taoist Yang suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "General Qin, Pindao's strength in the expeditionary force is no less than Jiang Kui and Xuan Hao. General Qin really looks down on Pindao so much!"

Qin Ge quickly raised his hand and said: "You are a high-ranking Xuanmen immortal, I am just an ordinary person..."

Yang Taoist raised his hand to stop Qin Ge and said: "I saved your clan brother that day. During the Snow Wolf Castle and the National War, I used Taoist talisman water to treat the soldiers. The development of our Taoism in the immortal world must depend on the secular government. The era of great war is coming.

, I hope to be able to preach and establish a religion under your regime!"

Qin Ge looked at the woman in front of him. This woman was impeccable in everything she did. Even the insidious and vicious Snake Taoist was obedient in front of her. The most terrifying person in the world is this kind of impeccable person.

"Don't worry, General Qin. Pindao is different from my senior brothers. I will abide by the rules and laws. Cooperating with me will definitely be a win-win outcome!" Taoist Yang bowed his head to Qin Ge and disappeared into a golden light.

Qin Ge fell into silence as he watched Taoist Yang leave.

…

There was no words to say all the way. Qin Ge and others led the army and were welcomed by the people of Jizhou. Compared with Youzhou, which has no roosters for thousands of miles, Jizhou was not disturbed by the war, so it remained prosperous.

Now that the foreign invasion has been repelled, Jizhou has restored its former prosperity, but refugees can still be seen on the streets.

As the people ate pots of juice and cheered, the army marched all the way through the countryside and counties. The gongs and drums were beating loudly along the way, and there were huge crowds of people. Everyone was treated as a hero and arrived at Jizhou Prefecture.

Outside the city of Jizhou Prefecture, General He Jin brought the honor guard given to him by the emperor ten miles away to welcome the victorious generals.

Qin Ge and others heard the scouting report in advance, so they dismounted ten miles in advance and led the army on foot to outside Changting.

I saw the drums beating in unison, the colorful flags fluttering, and the momentum like a rainbow. General He Jin, wearing armor and with a bloated body, was sitting upright on the general's chariot accompanied by a group of noble officials from Jizhou.

Yuan Shao, Qin Ge and other generals walked forward quickly, walked to the pavilion, and knelt down to General He Jin.

He Jin was so proud that he got off the chariot and praised the generals. He took Qin Ge's hand, pulled him into the general's chariot, and rode with him in the general's chariot.

Extremely pampered.

He Jin favored Qin Ge only and ignored all the generals, which made Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others look a little gloomy.

He Jin sat on the chariot with a somewhat narrow space, while Qin Ge stood aside with some restraint. He Jin pointed at the crowds of people outside the street, and the people and scholars who kept cheering at the general's chariot, enjoying the admiration of thousands of people.

: "Bo Xi! This is a triumphal ceremony I specially prepared for you. What do you think?"

Qin Ge and Kinderman were connected. At this moment, Kinderman was lying on the swing of the fairy nest, holding a ruler in his hand, closing his eyes and gently shaking his head.

Long Ya, who had already grown a circle under the swing, was lying on the ground with a serious look on his face, racking his brains to recite the Analects of Confucius. His voice was still loud and harsh, but he could speak Chinese fluently, and he recited the ancient Chinese characters with correct accents.

Round and straight.

Kinderman, on the other hand, is communicating with Qin Ge mentally and is helping Qin Ge deal with He Jin.

Qin Ge was reminded by Kinderman and said with sincerity and fear: "Thank you so much, General, for your kindness. How dare you take the credit!"

He Jin was very satisfied with Qin Ge's respectful attitude. He also asked what he was most worried about: "How sure is Boxi of wiping out the Qingzhou bandits!"

Qin Ge was silent for a moment and said, "Then it depends on how long the court gives me?"

He Jin was surprised when he heard this and said, "How can Boxi say this?"

Qin Ge clasped his fists and said: "General Mingjian, the imperial court has sent almost no soldiers at present. It depends entirely on my group of brothers. There is a huge gap between the strength of the bandits in Qingzhou, so the bandits in Qingzhou can only fight with wits but not with strength! As long as you give

If I have enough time, I will definitely be able to pacify Qingzhou!"

Hearing that Qin Ge was so confident and was not talking nonsense, he seemed to be confident. He Jin felt at ease and said: "Now this shaky man is supported by me. This time the emperor will give me nine tins and make me a duke. I have received many criticisms."

The villain's jealousy is to attack and destroy you. Boxi, you are my first-hand recommendation. Many people regard us as one. As you expected, if the suppression of the bandits lasts for a long time, those villains will definitely jump out and slander you! Your Majesty and I

I want to hear how long it will take you to pacify Qingzhou!"

He Jin was conferred the title of Jiuxi by the emperor, which originally caused an uproar in the court. However, because he recommended Qin Ge to conquer Qingzhou, many nobles who were ready to unite to join forces threw themselves into disrepute, so this time the conferment of Jiuxi was considered a smooth one. Therefore, He Jin had no intention of Qin Ge.

Even more important.

Qin Ge was silent for a moment and clasped his fists and said: "Five years! Qin is willing to issue a military order. Within five years, Qingzhou will be restored to imperial control!"

Although five years is a long time, the big man has no choice at present. He Jin is quite satisfied with this time and said: "Okay! Let's just limit it to five years. There is no need to issue military orders or anything like that. I completely believe in Boxi.

Your Majesty and I will give you five years, and you can go ahead and do whatever you want. My Majesty and I will support you from above. If anyone is dissatisfied, let him lead troops to suppress the rebellion. I can't cure these losers!"

After saying that, He Jin approached Qin Ge and whispered: "Now Liu Yan, Liu Biao and those guys all have objections to me. In the past few years, the emperor..., if there are changes in the capital, Boxi, you...

…”

Qin Ge quickly expressed his loyalty and said: "My brothers and I were promoted by the general. We are willing to go through fire and water for the general, even if we die!"

When He Jin heard this, he put his palms in his hands and smiled and said, "Okay! Okay! With Boxi's words, I feel relieved!"
Chapter completed!
