?On October 22, Liu Yu, the fourth son of Emperor Ling of Han, was brought to the world by Liu Yu, from the heavily guarded courtyard with Liu Yu. This was the first time that Liu Yu had lost his face in front of the public after he disappeared in the Chang'an Palace a year and a half ago.

Liu Yu, who was already very familiar with the procedure of adding seals, guided Liu Hua to complete the red tape, and finally took the edict from Situ Wang Yun, who was personally enfeoffed by Zi Yu, the newly-made seal of Liang Kingdom, seals and other things. Under the service of several clever maids transferred from Jinyang Palace, he changed into bright yellow royal clothes and sat on a seat symbolizing the royal power of Liang Kingdom.

At this point, the ceremony of King Liang was completed. In the territory of the already lively Han Dynasty, after King Jin Liu Rong was granted the title, another new king appeared after half a year.

Following the predetermined steps, after Liu Qi officially became the King of Liang, he first appointed Liu Yu as the prime minister of Liang, established a government office, and recruited officials and officials, mainly responsible for the domestic affairs of Liang; then appointed Guan Yu as the lieutenant of Liang, in charge of domestic troops, responsible for external expeditions and protection of the country; he also appointed Ma Teng, the chief minister of Liang, and in charge of military and political affairs of the four counties and two vassal states west of Wuwei (Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, Zhangye vassal state, and Yan vassal state); finally, he appointed Zhao Xing as the fu, responsible for tutoring the growth of Liang King Liu Qi.

Once the news spread, the world caused a sensation and the people were talking about it.

"Isn't Zhao Xing the Fu of King Jin Liu Rong? Why did he run to our Liang Kingdom to be a Fu of King Liang?" A newly appointed Yamao in Didao City, Longxi County, whispered to his companion next to him.

"That's right, but there is no rule that Zhao Xing can no longer be the tutor of King Liang Liu Shi?" The yaman who was asked answered with a proper expression.

"Oh my God, Zhao Xing has too much power, right? What exactly does he want to do?" The first yamen officer said in surprise with his mouth wide open.

"Chi! You only know that Mr. Zhao is powerful until now? You haven't heard that when the two kings grow up, they all want to be sons-in-laws for Zhao Xing. Tsk, look at their ability!" The second yamen shaking his head and dreaming.

Suddenly, a man who looked like a leader of the yamen came over and cursed loudly: "You two stupid birds, shut up, you two are shitty birds! Don't be there, hurry up and go to the streets to patrol! If you want to get the brand new tickets issued by Jin State peasants, soldiers and merchants, we who are selected to be accustomed to the job, otherwise the newly appointed prefect Zhao would have to remove our skin!"

When the two reprimanded yamen were trembling when they heard the boss mentioning Zhao Taishou, they could not help but tremble and quickly ran out to patrol the streets.

The new prefect who took office in Longxi County came from the Crouching Hu Army, the number one in the Jin State's protection, and its name was Zhao Hu. Although the prefect was not old and was not yet thirty, everyone he had seen was frightened and no one dared to look his eyes directly.

The selected Longxi yamen runners were not afraid of the newly appointed prefect at first. These guys who were energetic and often fought with nearby Qiang people on weekdays were just fearless.

After Zhao Taishou came, he saw the group of yamen runners who were short of birds under his command, sneered a few times, and then had a unique meeting. Zhao Hu took off his official uniform, rolled up his sleeves, and beat the group of yamen runners who were grinning from beginning to end, which completely shocked the two men.

After the angry prefect Zhao left, a personal soldier following the prefect turned around and warned everyone: "You cowards, why do you want to be filled with big cloves? The prefect had too many two poles in the Crouching Tiger Army, and all of them were ten times more fierce than you! If he finds out that you dare to be corrupt and abuse the law and bully the people in the future, just take them out and behead them!"

The beaten yamen runners then understood that the new prefect came from the army and turned out to be a ruthless character in the world's number one army!

The appointment of Zhao Hu as the prefect of Longxi County was naturally selected by Zhao Xing himself. The commander of the division who transferred from the army to the local area with Zhao Hu, as well as Fang Yue, the commander of the Canglang Army's 1st Heavy Cavalry Division. Zhao Hu served as the commander of the 1st Light Step Division of the Canghu Army, was held by Zhao Gang, the first person he saw when Zhao Xing first came to this world when he first came to this world, Zhao Dadan's son; Fang Yue's position was taken over by Zhang Xiu, who made contributions.

According to Zhao Xing's conscription, Li Fu was the prefect of Beidi County, which was close to Shangjun, Jin State, and the prefect of Anding County, where the capital of Liang King was, was the prefect of Zhang Ji; and the prefect of Hanyang County, which was a slightly richer, was the prefect of Guoyuan.

The northern regions, Anding and Hanyang counties are relatively stable because they are sandwiched between the Mateng, Jin State Shangjun and Sili areas, and they do not require the prefect to do a great job in military affairs. Correspondingly, the three counties of Jincheng, Longxi and Wudu must appoint military generals with rich military experience as prefects due to geographical environment.

Despite the protests of Xu Huang and Taishi Ci, Zhao Xing appointed Zhao Hu as the prefect of Longxi County where Dong Zhuo's old nest, and appointed Fang Yue as the prefect of Jincheng County, where the Qiang people were most rebellious. His intention was self-evident. So who was the prefect of Wudu County, who was the most complicated situation? The answer is Hua Weiguo, the head of the Shadow Northwest Regional Operation!

Wudu County is located in the west of Hanzhong County, Yizhou, Guanghan County and Guanghan vassal state, and the northeast corner is also bordered by Youfufeng in the Sili area. In other words, Wudu County is stuck in the throat of the Sima defense forces heading north in Yizhou, and under the pressure of breaking westward in the Sili area, it is in the area where the three-way spies and spies are most frequently and densely active. In such a complex place, Zhao Xing was not relieved to appoint other people to take charge, so he had to reluctantly transfer Huawei State.

As mentioned in the previous article, Liangzhou is vast and has a total of ten counties and two vassal states. Why did Zhao Xing only appoint the prefects of six counties? Why didn’t the other four counties and two vassal states mention it?

This matter involves the relationship between Liang State and Ma Teng. According to the agreement between the two sides and the strategy of playing hard to get that Zhao Xing secretly decided, as long as Ma Teng submits to the court and expresses his agreement to support Liu Shi as king in Liangzhou, Zhao Xing will divide the territories of Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang and Zhangye vassal states west of Wuwei County to Ma Teng.

The entire Liangzhou terrain looks like a large, slender flesh bone in the middle on the map, or like a dumbbell slanted. The Wuwei Guzang occupied by Ma Teng happened to be at the handle of the dumbbell near the hammer head on one side. According to the current territory, Zhao Xing only asked for a hammer head for the dumbbell, and handed over the handle of the big dumbbell and the hammer head on the other side to Ma Teng.

Why does this deal seem to be cheap?

In fact, Zhao Xing was just a favor. Since Ma Teng gained a foothold in Wuwei, he has completely blocked Dong Zhuo's expansion of power to the northwest of Liangzhou. This is also why Dong Zhuo took risks and launched a conquest against Ma Teng in the end. Because Ma Teng blocked Dong Zhuo's financial path and limited Dong Zhuo's strategic space. Even if Zhao Xing did not place the land west of Wuwei to Ma Teng, he would not be able to bypass Wuwei and occupy the other three counties and two vassal states.

Although it is just a favor, with official recognition and agreement from the government, the scope of Ma Teng's power being able to expand westward will be greatly increased in the future. Therefore, whether psychologically or in terms of strength, Ma Teng's inexplicable panic about the huge Jin State can be reduced to a range that he can bear, and he will no longer have to live a fearful life in the future.

Ma Teng simply submitted a memorial and was assigned such a large area by Zhao Xing. He was naturally very happy for a moment. He secretly luckily for not obeying Wang Yue's bewitchment and turned to the court to become enemies with Zhao Xing.

Ma Teng recently received some news and learned that in order to help the new Liang Kingdom, Jin State mobilized the whole country to raise unimaginable huge wealth. As for how huge this wealth was, even the people who reported the news couldn't explain it clearly. The news only said that on the road from Shangdang of Jin State to Gaoping of Liang State, there were people pushing small carts, and there was no beginning or end at all. Maybe the people at the front had already entered Gaoping City, and the people at the end came out of the Wohu City.

What a huge amount of materials and wealth this is? Ma Teng naturally would not be so crazy that he wanted to take the opportunity to fight a robbery or something. He just naturally thought that if Jin State fought with him, how many elite troops could these materials and wealth be equipped with?

It was precisely because of this that Ma Teng secretly took a chance and felt that he was lucky enough to not be in the wrong team.

After being happy, Ma Teng and his group of generals who only knew how to go on horseback and fight suddenly discovered a problem that made them scratch their heads. When they originally occupied a county in Wuwei, the officials under their charge of governing counties could barely deal with it, but now the territory has expanded more than three times at once. Where can we find so many internal officials who can govern counties?

Take a look at the various actions that the six counties in Liangguo next door have begun. Even if they are not internal officials, everyone understands that governing counties is the basis for enhancing their strength. Otherwise, no matter how large the territory you occupy, it will be useless. Apart from letting everyone's horses break their legs, there is no practical significance.

Although Han Sui is also a man of wisdom and tricks, he seems to be unable to follow this problem. Han Sui himself can serve as the prefect of a county and is confident that he will manage the county he is responsible for very well, but even if he is covered in iron, how many nails can he make? The territory Ma Teng now has four counties and two vassal states!

One day, Ma Chao, who had trained his five thousand cavalry, came to pay his respects to his father. Seeing his brows frowned, he asked, "What's wrong with the child seeing his father's expression unpredictable?"

Seeing that Ma Teng, his favorite eldest son, came, he told Ma Chao about his anxiety. Unexpectedly, after hearing his father's concerns, Ma Chao actually laughed and said with a smile: "I thought it was something difficult to do! This matter is simple. Let's just ask Zhao Guochang and ask him to pick some officials for us to send it?"

Ma Teng originally thought Ma Chao would come up with some good idea, but it turned out to be such a bad idea. He immediately scolded Ma Chao with a look of timid face and said, "Wu Er, how can you play tricks on your father like this! Let Zhao Xing appoint officials to our territory, then will we still be controlled by others in the future!"

Ma Chao stopped smiling and looked at his father Ma Teng seriously and asked, "Who does my father think the world of the Han Dynasty will eventually fall into?"

"From the momentum of today, I am afraid that it will be all Zhao Xing's hands in a few years." Although Ma Teng was a little reluctant, he still told the truth bitterly.

"Since the world must fall into Zhao Xing's hands, you are always on guard against others, what's the point of doing? It's better to be in a confused manner with him. You have me and I have you, and live freely and freely in this place of Xiliang!" Ma Chao said a sentence that surprised and shocked Ma Teng.

"My son, this statement is definitely not from your mouth. Who said it?" Ma Teng asked in a deep voice as he stared at Ma Chao's eyes.

Ma Chao replied with a calm expression: "When Guo Fengxiao left Guzang City that day, I asked him about the Ma family's way out, so he left this sentence..."
