Chapter 1931 1607. Wenlong to Tangzhou
He went to Chen Wenlong, who was in front of him, and his hands bowed almost close to the instep, and he was extremely respectful, "Zhang Liangdong has met Deputy State Council Order!"
Chen Wenlong frowned slightly.
Zhang Liangdong probably never expected that he would not please Chen Wenlong with such respectful appearance.
He didn't know Zhang Liangdong, so he felt that Zhang Liangdong's big gift was a bit abrupt.
It's like showing your kindness for nothing, either a traitor or a thief.
After glanced at Zhang Liangdong indifferently, Chen Wenlong said to the Jiangling Prefecture garrison general who had just walked up: "Who is this?"
The general reported: "Return to the Deputy State Order, this is the former magistrate of Tangzhou of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Liangdong."
Then he officially saluted Chen Wenlong, "At the end, the deputy commander of the 17th Regiment of the Jiangling Prefecture Garrison Army, Gong Qizhi, met the Deputy State Order!"
Chen Wenlong nodded slightly, "Personnel Gong led the army to guard Biyang, thank you for your hard work."
He looked at Zhang Liangdong who smiled and raised his head, "Can Lord Zhang be the Lord Zhang who used to be the magistrate of Fuzhou?"
In Fujian, Zhang Liangdong and the Pu family had such a stir, and finally Zhao Dongting enjoyed his success.
Even Chen Wenlong knows his name.
Chen Wenlong did not pay attention to him, so he didn't know that after Zhang Liangdong fled to the Yuan Dynasty, he only became the governor of Tangzhou.
Although he is also a magistrate, Tangzhou is far less rich than Fuzhou.
Zhang Liangdong is like rising and falling in secret.
This made him think of many things. These words would naturally not be said in front of Zhang Liangdong.
Zhang Liangdong bowed and replied, "It's exactly what I'm going to do."
"Go into the city!"
Chen Wenlong ignored him and led his men to slowly head into the city.
Gong Qizhi hurriedly followed with people to escort Chen Wenlong.
When Zhang Liangdong saw Chen Wenlong's attitude suddenly became so indifferent, he frowned slightly, and then quickly followed, but he didn't think much about it.
He only thought that Chen Wenlong was a surrendered minister, so he was so alienated from him.
After all, this is human nature.
He believed that his previous actions of killing He Lima in this Biyang City had completely changed the impression of Da Song of his.
At that time, he "had to surrender" for the people. I think he would be respected everywhere! The group slowly rushed towards the government office.
It didn't take much effort to capture Tangzhou at Xianglong Military Region, and Biyang was not destroyed. By this time, there were no traces left by the war.
People shuttled through the streets.
Seeing Chen Wenlong, who was escorted by the soldiers of the garrison troops of Jiangling Prefecture, he was a little surprised and confused, and then made way for him to go.
After entering the city for hundreds of meters, Chen Wenlong's brows couldn't help but frowned slightly.
As the head of Tangzhou, Biyang was still poor and backward as unexpectedly as he was poor and backward.
Now in the Song Dynasty, even ordinary counties have a prosperous scene beyond this Bieyang.
The people's livelihood of the Yuan Dynasty was really far behind that of the Song Dynasty.
Although his mission is not to develop these cities, but to stabilize them, this will eventually be what the officials of the Song Dynasty will do in the future.
Chen Wenlong believed in the collapse of the Yuan Dynasty in the Song Dynasty.
Go to the government office.
Gong Qizhi, Zhang Liangdong and others followed Chen Wenlong into the main hall.
Chen Wenlong did not drive Zhang Liangdong out. After sitting down, he only asked Gong Qizhi: "President Gong, are there any surrendered soldiers of the Yuan army in the city now?"
Gong Qizhi replied: "Return to the deputy state order, the dungeons in the city still imprison more than 400 surrendered Yuan army soldiers."
"Well..." Chen Wenlong nodded in contemplation, "Then are there any other surrendered troops in this Tangzhou?"
Gong Qizhi replied: "It's available in every city.
We are already renovating them, but we are not afraid to release them out of prison now, and there is no place to arrange it."
The biggest problem that Chen Wenlong had to solve when he came to the Yuan Dynasty during his trip.
These surrendered soldiers had fought for the Yuan Dynasty before. If they did not reform well, they would not give them a way to make a living. If they were let go, they would likely become a civilian bandit.
Chen Wenlong now regards the bases taken by the Imperial Army of the Great Song Dynasty as the land of the Great Song Dynasty, so he does not want such bandits to appear.
"This is how it goes!"
After a while, Chen Wenlong said to Gong Qizhi: "I heard that there is a stone mine not far from this Miyang, right?"
Gong Qizhi couldn't answer, scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Zhang Liangdong seized this opportunity and replied hurriedly: "Return to the Deputy State Order, there is indeed a stone mine fifteen miles east of this Bieyang.
The stone produced in its mine is hard and quite beautiful, and is a favorite thing for wealthy people from all over Tangzhou when building their homes.
The Deputy State Order suddenly mentioned this matter, but planned to send the surrendered soldiers to the mine?
If this is the case, it would be enough for the mines in Tangzhou to distribute all the surrendered soldiers."
He seemed confident, "There are more than ten large and small mines in Tangzhou.
Some of these mines have been abandoned due to the chaos of war and are in short supply of labor."
Chen Wenlong looked at him, "It seems that Lord Zhang is very clear about the situation in Tangzhou..." Zhang Liangdong smiled and said, "As the governor of Tangzhou, these are all matters related to the livelihood of the people, so naturally I dare not slackew."
In fact, he knew these mines well, because they were all controlled by the Yuan Dynasty in the past, and he could make money from them.
Chen Wenlong pondered for a while and said, "Since that's the case, then do it like this!"
Gong Qizhi frowned slightly, "Deputy State Order, but at this time we don't have so many soldiers to send to the mine to guard these surrendered soldiers..." Chen Wenlong waved his hand and smiled and said, "Just send a very small number of soldiers to guard them."
If you do this, if the surrendered soldiers imprisoned in the dungeon are those who perform well in prison, those who perform well in prison can absorb them as the city's constables and defenders, and our Song Dynasty will pay them a salary to let them serve our Song Dynasty.
In this way, there should be few surrenders left. Those people will be sent to the mine for the time being to serve as supervisors.
They have nowhere to go and have no money and food on them, so they should not cause trouble."
The surrendered soldiers in the Bianyang dungeon are still the same as before, with a small number and a defender, so it is relatively easy to arrange many things.
Chen Wenlong also planned to let all the officials of the Song Dynasty and soldiers take over the current captive cities of the Yuan Dynasty.
It is impossible to draw so many people.
Moreover, in the long run, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty will eventually withdraw to the territory of the Song Dynasty.
These places must be governed by locals.
What Chen Wenlong had to do was to set up a government office in these places to restore order.
As long as the order is there, it will be in chaos.
Gong Qizhi nodded when he heard this.
Chen Wenlong said again: "President Gong, please send someone to convey to the cities of Tangzhou first, so that the defenders of each city will arrange surrendered soldiers in this way."
"yes!"
Gong Qizhi received the order.
Chen Wenlong looked at Zhang Liangdong again and asked, "Mr. Zhang, what is the situation in the city government offices in Tangzhou now?
Do you know?”
Zhang Liangdong replied: "The current public security of all government offices is managed by soldiers of the Song Dynasty. The rest of the government offices... Some of them have extended the original officials, and some have invited people from the people to preside over the presidency."
Chen Wenlong showed a slight strange color.
I have to say that Zhang Liangdong still has the ability.
"Well..." Chen Wenlong didn't say anything more. After just nodding, he quickly let Zhang Liangdong and the others go down.
He stayed in the main hall to ponder.
Although the various city government offices in Tangzhou are still operating, Chen Wenlong doesn’t know about those people and has never seen them before, so he is naturally not at ease.
He also has to choose the virtuous and take responsibility.
That night, a person was taken into the government office by Chen Wenlong.
The person's identity is the owner of a grain shop in Biyang City. In fact, he was a spy installed here by the Military Information Department.
Chen Wenlong plans to start rectification from Biyang, and to be familiar with the origins and personalities of the officials in the city. The most convenient way is to get news from the Secret Hall of the Military Intelligence Department.
I think no one has more information about the city officials than the MIIS.
After all, the MIIS made this job.
The Lord of the Dark Hall was taken to the government office, which Zhang Liangdong and others did not know.
With Zhang Liangdong's level, he may not even know that there is a secret hall of the Military Intelligence Department in this Miyang City.
Some yard in the government office.
There were dim oil lamps in the room, and the shadows of several people were reflected on the window paper.
