Like now, it is a logical thing to set up a general manager's office to handle all matters on behalf of the state. But once there is a general manager of Bingzhou or an acting general manager of the state, what should people call him?
Li Po was also depressed about this matter. What he said a year ago, half a year later, would he break his promise and become fat? Is it because he didn't think carefully or is the world situation changing too fast?
Does it mean that if you want to be king and dominate, you must first develop a thick skin like Liu Bei?
Of course, there are many things bothering him now, including this one.
When he arrived in Jiangzhou, the first thing Li Po wanted to do was actually very clear, which was to meet Pei Shiqing, the leader of the Pei family in Hedong. Li Po had already found out about this person's origins.
An old minister from the Sui Dynasty, who was very talented and learned, and had a beautiful manner, but in Li Po's place, he instantly turned into a white-faced old man.
In fact, no matter what he thinks, this person is different from Wang Cong, the leader of the Wang family. He has written extensively and has been sent overseas. He may not necessarily have more experience than Wang Cong, but his vision should be much broader than Wang Cong.
, let alone those who are envoys overseas these days, even those who can return safely to the Turks as envoys are not considered ordinary officials.
Pei Shiqing is indeed not as pretentious as Wang. Of course, this also depends on today's situation. When these big bosses are pretentious, they probably all look the same.
Pei Shiqing, accompanied by Yu Chigong, Bu Qun and others, met Daozuo and behaved very respectfully.
Li Po saw this person for the first time and took a look at him. In fact, he was not that old. He was... a middle-aged man who lived up to his reputation, was very graceful and energetic.
Some characteristics are very similar to those of Chen Xiaoyi, Wen Yanbo and others, which is an external manifestation of poetry and calligraphy.
Of course, if you compare him with Li Jing, Su Dan, Yu Wenxin and others, it will be different. The characteristics of the Kansai clan are completely different from those of Jin.
The heroes of the Kansai clan, regardless of whether they were civil or military, had a vague aura of valor in their bodies, and their aggressiveness was even stronger, which was almost completely opposite to the restraint of the big clans of Jin.
But there is no doubt that they are all at the top of the food chain in this world, and there is always a way to survive.
Li Po was not too polite to Pei Shiqing, and talking enthusiastically to such a talented and knowledgeable person would only hurt his own shortcomings. What Li Po held in his hands was authority, which was his most powerful weapon.
Surrounded by everyone, Li Po entered Jiangzhou City.
Naturally, Jiangzhou and Jinyang cannot be compared, but Jiangzhou has the Pei family from Hedong, and the shortcomings of being a strong city and fortress have become advantages at this time.
For example, when the Wang family lived in Jinyang, they were dealt with frequently, and their decline became apparent in a few years.
On the contrary, the Pei family lived in Jiangzhou, and Li Yuan treated them very favorably when he went south. Li Po sent his army south, and the Pei family did not suffer much harm.
If it weren't for Pei Ji's fault that some of his disciples died in the battle in Xihe County, otherwise, the Pei family in Hedong could be said to have been unscathed in this battle.
Li Po also brought a gift to Pei Shiqing, a group of captured children of the Pei family.
In addition, as soon as he arrived in Jiangzhou, Li Po retained Pei Shiqing's official position in public, but changed it to the prefect of Jiangjun.
Since the Pei family was not severely damaged, Jiangjun was also very stable under Pei Shiqing's rule, and even this year's autumn harvest was not affected much.
Moreover, what made Li Po quite happy was that more than 200,000 pieces of Tang Jun's food, grass and baggage were stranded in Linfen and Jiangjun.
Part of it was marched in Hedong, and the other part was transferred from Kansai. With such an unexpected harvest, Li Po couldn't even be dissatisfied.
The previous resentment that was blamed on others had almost dissipated before Linfen Cangfang.
Before that, the victory of this battle was finally reported to Li Po.
During the first battle, a total of 130,000 Tang soldiers were captured, and between 40,000 and 50,000 civilians were captured. In other words, a total of 170,000 to 80,000 people were captured in this battle.
As for the seized grain and grass, if some were saved, it would be almost enough for these people to eat until the following spring.
Coupled with the food from Linfen and Jiangjun... Li Tang undoubtedly gave Li Po a generous gift.
Of course, this also shows that Li Tang attaches great importance to this battle, but the result is enough to make Li Tang stunned.
In addition, all kinds of soldiers and armors were piled up like mountains, which made the infantry generals smile with joy. There was no need to cast them in the north. These things alone were enough for the infantry for a year or two.
It can be said that the army under Li Po has fully absorbed nutrients from previous battles, and as time goes by, it appears to be getting stronger and stronger.
The people of Jiangzhou did not welcome Li Po on the street. When Li Po entered Jiangzhou, there were no people on the street, and only the barking of dogs entered Li Po's ears from time to time.
And in the houses on both sides of the street, there must be countless eyes staring at this group of people.
Pei Shiqing, who was accompanying Li Po, stroked his beard and explained to Li Po in a slightly embarrassed manner, "Ignorant people with low-level officials were shocked by the power of the military lord Hu, and showed their ugly behavior, so they warned everyone to avoid it... Please also ask."
The military lord will forgive him."
Li Po smiled and said to himself, are you afraid that I will rob a common girl? Or are you afraid that someone will assassinate me? You make it so deserted, hum, you really need to forgive me...
This was just a small episode. Li Po didn't say anything as heart-wrenching as Yang Guang did when he returned to Luoyang, especially from Jiangjun...
He just said noncommittally to Pei Shiqing, "It is indeed a bit deserted."
Pei Shiqing looked at Li Po's young face. Even though he was conceited and well-informed, and he was calm and sophisticated, he could not help but feel a little worried at this time.
There was nothing he could do, the situation was like this, he couldn't help but tremble with fear, as if he were facing an abyss.
The honor and disgrace of one person is a small matter, but the honor and disgrace of the clan is a big deal.
Thinking about this, he was filled with emotions.
Before, the whole world belonged to the Sui Dynasty, and everyone was a Sui minister. After Tang Gong became emperor, Jiangjun became the land of Tang Dynasty. In just a few years, the sun, moon and star flags were hung on the top of Jiangzhou city again...
…
At this time, all the previous worries had become a reality, and Pei Shiqing felt a little at a loss in his heart.
Because this is what happened after you finished singing and I came on stage, then will there be any changes in the future? Over and over again... Pei Shiqing couldn't help but scratched his beard hard before he could calm down again.
He has done so many erratic things today. I can only hope that when future generations comment on it, they will be honest and blame only him and not the Pei family in Hedong.
Similarly, he also secretly prayed a few words to his ancestors in his heart. It would be better if the person next to him can speak some truth and not be as murderous as the rumors say.
The psychology of surrendering to others is probably the same, so there is no need to elaborate.
The group's destination was naturally the former Jiangzhou Governor's Mansion. As Li Po rode his horse, he ordered the generals on his left and right to arrange military affairs for the army and not to destroy fertile fields easily or violate military rules and regulations.
Pei Shiqing listened to the side and breathed a sigh of relief. Anyone who can speak like this must not be a crazy person...
Under his rule, Jiangzhou was not a prosperous city, but it could be regarded as a rare piece of pure land in the world today. This was not only where Pei Shiqing worked hard, but it was also the hometown of the Pei family in Hedong, and was closely related to the Pei family in Hedong.
