Chapter 592 Qiao Bin wants to be an official

 Li Ye did have enough positions to place his men. He had the right to recommend local officials and the right to directly appoint civil and military officials of the Jianghan Army. In order to firmly control the Jianghan Army, Li Ye finally decided to send these soldiers who came all the way to join him.

All his old ministries were appointed officials of Jianghan Jiedu Prefecture.

Shi Libo, the original deputy chief of the Jiedu Prefecture, was changed to the governor of Fangzhou, and Chen Huan became the deputy chief of history and became the deputy of Chief Shi Li Mi.

Wang Changling served as Sima, Qiu Xuan as a judge, and Yang Shaohua served as a recorder and joined the army.

The female guard Wang Chenghua served as General Ying Yanglang of the Thirteenth Army. The Thirteenth Army is a very special army. All of them are female soldiers, that is, the Detachment of Women. It was normal for the Detachment of Women to exist in the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, how could Niangziguan come about?

?

The Thirteenth Army has just been formed and has about a thousand people. They are still training. They have many tasks and are temporarily responsible for the security patrol of Xiangyang City.

There is also a special official, Qiao Bin. Qiao Bin has been serving as Cang Cao of the Hezhong Army.

Li Ye considered it again and again and decided to let him continue to serve as Jianghan Juncang Cao's army officer and transport envoy.

But Qiao Bin was somewhat emotional. He actually wanted to be appointed as the Prime Minister of Xiangyang County. This was the official position that Li Ye initially promised him, but Li Ye changed his mind.

Early the next morning, Qiao Bin found Li Ye, just as Li Ye was about to go out.

"Let's go! Go for a walk with me. If you still insist, I will help you."

Qiao Bin is also twenty years old, but he has not yet married. He has also grown a lot, has a medium build, has a mustache, and looks a bit like a little shopkeeper.

Although Qiao Bin is young, he is very smart and capable. He handles all kinds of materials from Broken Leaf in an orderly manner. He is the only one who Xie Jin refuses to let go. However, Qiao Bin still uses the excuse of going home to visit relatives to leave.

Already.

"Is your father coming?" Li Ye asked with a smile.

Qiao Bin nodded, "They are already on the way, and they will probably arrive in the next few days."

"There are too many people fleeing during this period, especially in Henan Province and Duji Province. At the beginning, An Lushan pretended to enforce military discipline and wanted to impose kingly laws on the world. Since last month, the true nature of the Yan army has been exposed.

They burned, killed and looted, and Hebei was slaughtered everywhere. It was simply a hell on earth. Millions of people fled south. Jiangnan, Jianghuai, and Jianghan were the top three places where refugees fled south."

"Where do you plan to place them?" Qiao Bin asked thoughtfully.

Li Ye smiled slightly, "Xiangzhou, Jingzhou, Yingzhou and Fuzhou, mainly these four states, have a lot of land and a sparse population. There is no problem in housing millions of people."

Qiao Bin sighed, "With millions of people, there's not enough food and supplies!"

"You're right, that's the problem. Refugees don't come all at once, so we have to have a long-term plan. We can't eat the first batch of refugees to bursting their stomachs, but the subsequent refugees don't have anything to eat, and we have to demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall.

Do everything possible to get food from all over the place."

Qiao Bin smiled and said: "Wouldn't the person who did this have a headache that would explode?"

Li Ye said calmly: "This is the matter of the transfer envoy!"

Qiao Bin was stunned, "That's not right! This is at most a matter for the Shannan East Road transfer envoy. I want to be the Jianghan Army's transfer envoy."

"Actually, it's the same thing. The Shannan East Road Observation Envoy Department and the Jianghan Jiedu Envoy Department are two different brands, but they are the same team of people, so the Shannan East Road Transport Department and the Jianghan Army Transfer Department are also the same team of people, you understand

Yet?"

Qiao Bin blinked his eyes, "The envoy actually appointed me as the transit envoy of Shannan East Road?"

Li Ye shook his head, "I am the transport envoy of Shannan East Road, but there is no one under me. All things are done by the people from the Jianghan Army Transport Department. When you serve as the transport envoy of the Jianghan Army, you will not only transport money and food for the army, but also do other things at the same time.

The affairs of Shannan East Road mainly involve the allocation of money and food from the government and the transportation of refugee supplies."

"If there is no separation between military and political affairs, will it become chaotic?"

Li Ye sighed softly, "Actually, there is no distinction between military and political matters when it comes to money, food and materials. Military control has been implemented on everything."

They came to the Han River. Li Ye pointed with his riding whip at the numerous cargo ships on the river and said: "Did you see it? There are thousands of cargo ships on the dock and on the river. They originally belonged to the official ships of various states and counties. It's quite confusing.

Now they have all been requisitioned and put under the unified management of the Jianghan Army Transport Department. Not only the ships, but also all warehouses, camels, transport carts, etc. have been taken over by the military. I have told the governors and county magistrates of all states

Now, this is an extraordinary period. Once the Anlushan Rebellion is quelled, things will return to normal."

Qiao Bin smiled bitterly and said, "When your Majesty said this, I feel like there are too many things going on and they are all complicated and I can't manage them at all."

Li Ye smiled faintly and said: "That's because you are overthinking. The instructions for allocating money and grain come from Sima. Sima is equivalent to the Ministry of Household Affairs. You are Taifu Temple. As long as you manage the money and grain materials in the warehouse, the ships and the

A camel will do.”

Li Ye came to the dock, stopped his horse and said to Qiao Bin: "I'm going to Dengzhou. I'll give you three days to think about it. Do you want to be a warehouse chief and transshipment envoy, or do you want to be the prime minister of Xiangyang County?"

Qiao Bin shook his head, "It won't take three days. I will answer now. I am a warehouse manager and a transporter. At least I don't have to look at other people's faces, but others look at mine."

Li Ye laughed, patted his arm and said: "From now on, if you have endless supplies of specialties from all over the country, remember to share some with me!"

Qiao Bin scratched his head and said, "You are joking!"

Li Ye looked at him again and said seriously: "You can collect specialties, but you can't touch the bribe money. If you want to be prime minister in the future, you must keep my words in mind."

Qiao Bin nodded silently, "I remember!"

Li Ye led his men across the Han River and continued northward to Zhi Rang County in Dengzhou Prefecture.

Along the way, we encountered a huge fleet of boats transporting refugees going south and their belongings. The boats were filled with men, women, and children, as well as all kinds of luggage they carried. They were all 500-stone boats, and each boat held more than a dozen people.

, about three or four families, supported by a boatman.

Some refugees come in large vehicles, which is slightly better, but many refugees come on foot with their families, which requires the government to provide transportation.

The main thing is boats. There are many rivers in Dengzhou. The most important river is of course the Han River, and the Han River has several tributaries, such as the Turbulent River flowing through Rangxian County and the Wei River flowing through Nanyang County. The two rivers merge in the south of Xinye

It flows into the Han River.

Therefore, Shannan East Road set up a large refugee camp in Rang County and Nanyang County. All the refugees took a short rest, recuperated, and were treated for their diseases in these two camps. After registering, they then took a boat to go south.

They are assigned to various states and counties, and then the local government receives and resettles them.

So far, the number of refugees in the two camps has reached 500,000. Li Ye knew that this was a famous great migration in Chinese history.

The first time was when the Jin people crossed the river, and a large number of northern Han people moved south. The second time was the Anshi Rebellion. A large number of people from Hebei and the Central Plains moved south. Since then, the southern economy has surpassed that of the north. The third time was the southward migration at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, which was the largest scale.

At one time, the number of people far exceeded that of the Western Jin Dynasty and the Anshi Rebellion.

As for the southward migration at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the southward migration during the Anti-Japanese War, these were not large-scale, and they all returned one after another in the end.

During the Tianbao period, the population of the Tang Dynasty was close to 50 million. Later, during the Anshi Rebellion, thousands of miles of bare fields in the north were left empty, and tens of millions of people fled to the south, mainly to the south of the Yangtze River, but Jingxiang was also the focus, at least to escape

One to two million people came, so resettling refugees has always been a top priority for the Jingxiang government.

Of course, the north will also bring a large amount of labor force and advanced technology, and at the same time fill the population of Jingxiang, so that Jingxiang's economy will develop by leaps and bounds.

Disadvantages.

That morning, Li Ye led hundreds of cavalry to the Rangxian refugee camp.
