"Congratulations to Your Majesty for returning in triumphant!" Back at the court, Liu Tao naturally welcomed the congratulations from civil and military officials.

"I accidentally destroyed Jin State..." Liu Tao sighed. Even though the war is strictly speaking, now, everyone knows the time when Jin State can be destroyed. After all, almost all civil and military officials have been killed.

As the prefect of Bohai, Yuan Tan is still fighting stubbornly, but that's it.

He paused and looked at the Ministry of Revenue: "Is there enough supplies?"

"Thanks to His Majesty found the place where Yuan Shao hid the materials, it was quite sufficient." Xun Yu sighed. He originally wanted to fight for two or three months, and at most the war fought in Jizhou turned into a war of destruction.

At the beginning, Yuan Shao's strong walls and clearing the fields did cause them a lot of trouble. Fortunately, Liu Tao found the place where Yuan Shao stored the supplies, but it was not in the northern part of Jizhou, but in a place like Wuchao.

This was not a surprise attack, and then the materials were transported back and distributed to the local area, so that the local people could persevere until next year. Of course, Liu Tao was also bored here, and the food from those aristocratic families was not returned at all.

It only said that it was borrowed by Jin State, what does it have to do with the Han Dynasty? Although the noble families hated Liu Tao's arrogantness, they complained more about Yuan Shao's incompetence. They were so easily destroyed, and all the original investments were gone.

So a lot of food was added out of thin air, and all problems were solved, and even a slight surplus was still possible. Xun Yu had to accept that he could fight to this extent in war.

Now compared to the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel is really a headache. It has destroyed the country. According to Liu Tao's initial statement, there are probably few officials in the huge Jin State.

The minor officials can be retained and admitted according to the merits, but the main purpose is to break up the admission. I just hope that the prefect of Zhongshan, Zhao County and Qinghe County, and the county magistrate, can immediately surrender after knowing that Yuan Shao is finished, otherwise I really don’t know how to arrange for someone to go there.

"It's fine. It's winter is coming soon. We have to work hard, so we should pay attention to keeping warm." Liu Tao nodded, not caring about the lack of manpower. Anyway, it took a year or two to make do with it, and it was even less labor-intensive before, so we all survived like this.

I could do it before, but now I can't do it. As expected, it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's difficult to go from extravagance to frugality...

It's over! If officials from the three provinces and six ministries know Liu Tao's idea, they will probably just fight back.

In the past, there were only one state, so of course it could be harder, but there were not many things. Now there are six states, and the following things are six times as good as before. Otherwise, so many officials need to deal with them? There are not enough staff, and even according to Xun Yu's method of handling many things, they are still too busy to work overtime. It has become a common practice.

What is promotion and wealth aside? Everyone has to talk about the first time they chat about the holidays and the first time.

"Appoint it. When the Jin State is destroyed, arrange an exam immediately and select a group of personnel." Liu Tao looked at the Ministry of Personnel, "In addition, those who have made contributions this time must also be rewarded for their merits."

Your Majesty, isn’t you the one who made the most of this contribution? Lu Zhi really wanted to complain. After all, the battle report this time has been sent back. Liu Tao found the enemy’s nest, and then the two scrolls made the other party lose their combat power, and easily lost the army of 100,000.

Others just pick up cheap things by the way, which can be considered as military achievements? Such military achievements are somewhat unfair!

"Don't look at me like this..." Liu Tao had no choice. It was okay for others. The Minister of Personnel was a direct teacher, so he still had to give face. "They did people and worked hard. Even if it is a high probability that it is my reason, they have worked hard even if they have no credit... In this way, calculate the credit according to half of the normal situation. Is it okay?"

"If this is the case... it's okay!" Lu Zhi did not continue to worry when he heard this. In fact, according to his opinion, it would be more reasonable to calculate it by 30%.

There are two people in the Han Dynasty who are not easy to mess with. One is the Minister of Personnel. This guy is still the imperial teacher. Even Liu Tao must "respect his teachers and respect the Tao." After all, this is a traditional Chinese virtue and he cannot lead the way.

The other one is Zong Zheng, plus the Supreme Emperor Liu Yuanqi. This person who is usually ignorant of the ministers, Liu Tao will admit defeat when he is attacked. He has no choice but to have no choice but to his own father.

After the court dispersed, Liu Tao returned to his house and had to greet and have some warmth with the girls. He originally wanted to tease a few children who grew up slowly in the family, but he was tired all the way. After returning home, he felt a little urge to collapse on the bed.

Finally, I took a simple wash and went to bed early. It was really just a sleep...

Time passed day by day. Before winter began, Huang Zhong sent the latest battle report, Bohai County had been broken, Yuan Tan was beheaded by Wen Chou Formation, and Jin State was destroyed.

Nearly 100,000 prisoners, after reuniting about 10,000 or 20,000 people, the rest were dispersed to Jizhou, Qingzhou and Yanzhou to help the local area carry out infrastructure work. It was agreed that they would be given freedom as long as they worked for five years.

Since they can be free after working for five years, the vast majority of soldiers are still willing, and the few who are unwilling can only send them a journey to fulfill their loyalty to Jin State.

Five years later, Yanzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou were all libraries and schools, with unobstructed roads and public toilets were probably built.

It just so happens that new students graduate every year, and they are arranged to go to the lower school to internship for a period of time, and then the old-fashioned students bring more than a dozen new students to work at local colleges. In this way, the local education system is expanded by using the old to lead the new.

In this way, colleges at all levels can start enrolling students, and the entire imperial examination system can be improved. The next imperial examination, at most, the next imperial examination will be almost as normal.

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome if all scholars and Jinshi were selected in one imperial examination.

After the beginning of winter, news came from the Xianbei that Tuoba Liwei, who did not follow the brigade to the south, became the new Khan of the Xianbei, and then unified the Xianbei tribes and even brought in the Dongxianbei tribes.

The Xianbei went from division to unification, of course, the price was that internal vitality was severely damaged. Even if a war was to be launched, it would have to wait for at least another three or five years.

"Is it because of this Tuoba Li's slight connection that made Yuan Shao and Bu Dugen hook up?" Liu Tao found Jia Xu and asked.

"Although there is no accurate information, judging from the beginning of the matter to the present results, Tuoba Liwei is indeed the biggest beneficiary." Jia Xu replied that no matter how powerful the secret guard is, it is impossible to bring the intelligence system to the Xianbei side.

No, I'm actually doing it, just using the Chinese Xianbei people to enter the Xianbei to be spies. It's just that the time is too short and I can't get in touch with any upper-class people, so I naturally can't know so much.

Thanks to this spy, we can know that Tuoba Liwei became the new Khan.

"If we attacked us from the beginning, the purpose of this is to do this, Tuoba Liwei is not simple!" Liu Tao was thinking, but he didn't have much impression of Tuoba Liwei, and he didn't know what role he was in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty.

According to this trend, if Xianbei gives him thirty or fifty years of development, he will probably become the second Tan Shihuai. Unfortunately, when he came to this era, it was impossible for him to give Xianbei thirty or fifty years of development.

"At least it is the few people in the Xianbei who use their brains." Jia Xu echoed.

"There is no way. Bu Dugen likes to use his brain, so the tribes under his command have a high probability of following them. After all, you have to face a Khan who likes to use his brain. If you don't use your brain, you really can't keep up with him..." Liu Tao sighed.

Jia Xu also expressed his approval of this. In order to deal with Liu Tao's culture, he has no idea how many brain cells have died.

After a pause, Liu Tao reminded: "You can ignore the Xianbei for the time being within three to five years. Don't relax when collecting information there, but instead strengthen it."

"I obey the order!" Jia Xu naturally understood the importance of doing so, although he was more inclined to kill the other party in the cradle before the general situation was achieved.

It’s just that it is clearer that the Han Dynasty does not have any extra free time now, but focuses on a Xianbei who has been greatly damaged.

In a blink of an eye, winter has arrived and the war has come to an end.

If Liu Tao can do it now, he almost always stays in the greenhouse, and even the ground dragons in the imperial study are in full firepower. The weather this year is particularly cold, but this is a good thing, which means that next year's rain should be more abundant.

What I fear most is the warm winter, with less precipitation in the second year, and there may be locust plagues.

"A year is coming..." Liu Tao sighed. If next year is 192 AD, then he will be 32. This time is really fast.

Life is short, maybe only fifty years of life, or seventy years. His body is very healthy, his body fat rate is not high, and his blood pressure and blood sugar should be normal. It is said that living in his seventies or eighties is not a problem.

If he counts this way, he will have more than 40 years to unify the world and even be able to expedition outside the territory to play.

But he didn't plan to work so hard. He was seventy years old. No matter what the follow-up, he planned to retire directly. Otherwise, he would not die, and the prince waiting to succeed him would be old.

For example, some teenagers were already fifty or sixty by the time they were eighty, and they were not lucky enough to become emperor. Even if they succeeded to the throne, they would probably be excited and would disappear the next day. The prince was left without any good teaching. This is the bad thing for the emperor’s inheritance...

According to the calculation of the age of seventy, then the prince should be held responsible for government affairs at the age of sixty and familiar with him, so that he can get a seamless handover when he abdicates.

It is hard to say that in the future, we can set a special rule based on this to prevent a certain emperor from giving up his throne even if he is not dead.

In other words, the time I can perform freely is only more than 30 years, and only ten imperial examinations will take place. Now there are still Yuzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, Yangzhou, Xuzhou and Jiaozhou that have not been pacified, and it should be almost the same for one state in three years.

Talents and materials can keep up with it...

Thinking of this, Liu Tao seemed to remember something, with a sudden expression: "By the way, I seem to have forgotten the year name!"
Chapter completed!
