The World Game Online - Chapter 285

[Chapter 285]

With the passage of time, the wave of immigrants caused by the Mazu Temple gradually spread from the common people to the gentry class and businessmen in Quanzhou.

Bayi★Chinese Website√く★★ ★√√Shanhai

County’s beautiful natural environment, reasonable urban planning, good public security, clean government affairs, strong commercial atmosphere and cultural connotation all attract the attention of gentry and businessmen.

Buildings such as the Southwest University Hall, the Yellow Emperor’s Temple, the Zhaoxian Hall, and the Shang Ding all attract people’s attention.

Only then did they discover that there is such a paradise outside the wilderness.

Shanhai County was already thirsty for talents, and the two sides hit it off.

As if opening a sluice gate, after the common people, a large number of gentry and businessmen began to choose to settle in Shanhai County.

Among them, there are not only children from poor families, but also literati, and many of them are talented people; after they settle down, they either enter the Southwest University or enter the official career.

Because of Jiang Shang’s existence, the Southwest University Hall is more attractive to literati, while most of the humble scholars choose to become officials.

The group of merchants set up shops in Shanhai County.

Some businessmen with a keen sense of smell even started the business of Mazu Temple, specializing in the sale of products such as incense candles for worship, and made a lot of money.

After a detailed inspection of Shanhai County, especially seeing that the Cui Chamber of Commerce is flourishing in Shanhai County, some chambers of commerce in Quanzhou have also moved to set up a branch in Shanhai County.

The steady flow of people has brought a large number of guests to the newly opened Shanhaiyuan, which is really enviable to others.

Faced with such a good opportunity, Ouyang Shuo immediately informed Xu Zhenchang, the director of the commercial department, to ask the commercial department to prepare an investment promotion conference, introduce the investment policy and business environment of Shanhai County in detail, and attract major chambers of commerce to settle in.

The Administration Department is not idle either, and cooperates with the Household Registration Department to hold a talent recruitment meeting to select talents and enrich them to the departments and offices of Shanhai County and the affiliated territories.

All in all, the wave of immigrants brought by the Mazu Temple had far better results than the previous talent recruitment campaign conducted by the Cui Chamber of Commerce in Dali, which put Ouyang Shuo in a good mood.

The grand occasion in front of me just confirmed an old saying: If you plant flowers with intention, they will not bloom, but if you do not intend to plant willows and willows, it will make shade.

The strong talent reserve has laid a solid foundation for Shanhai County to be promoted to the county seat.

Ouyang Shuo was still worrying about the new round of talent shortage after his territory was promoted to a county city. According to the current immigration trend, there is more than enough, so there is no need to worry about the problem of talent shortage.

As for the original Matsu Temple Fair,

with the full support of various chambers of commerce in Quanzhou, it was held with unprecedented grandeur.

The huge influence of Mazu even alarmed the Quanzhou imperial court, who specially dispatched officials from the Ministry of Rites to Shanhai County for inspection and presented a plaque of “Mazu Temple” bestowed by the emperor.

In this way, the belief in Mazu has spread explosively.

What made Ouyang Shuo ecstatic was that the Mazu Temple was unsealed in one step after being blessed with incense.

“System prompt: The statue of Mazu is blessed by incense, officially unsealed, restored to its original appearance, and its divine power has been greatly increased, and the attributes of the Mazu temple have been greatly improved. Players are welcome to check it out.”

At this time, the statue of Mazu emitted soft divine light, Can be seen from afar.

Such a miracle made the believers who were worshiping in the temple burst into tears.

The second miracle of the Mazu Temple once again set off the revolution of the Mazu belief in Quanzhou.

The wave of immigration that has just subsided has once again set off wave after wave of peaks.

The people of Quanzhou deeply believed that it was their devotion that moved Mazu to perform miracles and bless the believers.

Ouyang Shuo took the time to check the properties of the Matsu Temple, and he was very satisfied with the results.

[Name]: Mazu Temple

[Type]: Hidden buildings

[Function]: Spread the belief of Mazu, increase the satisfaction of residents by 30%, increase the popularity of the territory by 10%

[Features]: Blessing of the Sea God (the ability of the fleet to withstand storms at sea is increased by 40% ), ride the wind and waves (increase the sailing speed of the ship by 3o%)

[Comment]: Mazu, the sea god belief centered on the southeast coast of China.

After the unblocking of the Mazu Temple, the architectural functions have been greatly improved. Not only that, but also derived a second architectural feature [Riding the Wind and Waves], which improves the sailing speed of ships.

Worthy of being the god of the sea, Shanhai County Navy has these two characteristics blessings, and it will not be far to dominate the sea.

With the unblocking of the Mazu Temple, this Mazu event has come to a successful conclusion.

The Mazu Temple has also become an important bridge connecting the two cities of Quanzhou and Shanhai County.

Although the grand event came to an end, the aftermath continued.

Although the peak of immigration has passed, hundreds of Quanzhou aborigines rush to Shanhai County every day, either to worship Mazu or to settle here.

As Shanhai County gradually became familiar to Quanzhou, the immigrant group has already spread from pure and faithful believers to talents from all walks of life who come to Shanhai County to make a living.

The scene that happened in Shanhai County made the lords of the world look sideways at it, some were envious and jealous, some made slanderous words and slanders, some sincerely congratulated them, a mixed bag of good and bad people.

No matter how the outside world commented, Ouyang Shuo remained steadfast.

After the Mazu Temple Fair was over, Ouyang Shuo handed over the immigration and investment promotion matters to the Administration Department and the Finance Department, and did not ask any further questions.

The outstanding talents recruited will also be temporarily placed by Fan Zhongyan, and unified arrangements will be made after the territory is promoted to a county.

From the county seat to the county seat, it is a qualitative breakthrough, and there must be a major innovation in the government affairs structure.

The relevant personnel layout has already been brewing in Ouyang Shuo’s mind.

*************

After the event, Ouyang Shuo’s eyes turned to task 4 [Legion Trial].

[Legion Trial] A division needs to pass the Legion Trial. Currently, there is only one division in Shanhai County. Logically speaking, there is nothing to hesitate, just arrange the first division trial.

The problem is, after Ouyang Shuo checked the system’s settings about legion trials in detail, he hesitated.

According to the system settings, divisions and above troops can conduct legion trials. After successful trials, they will receive exclusive legion specialties and be awarded military flags.

The crux of the problem is that after passing the trial, the soldiers of the division participating in the trial, except for those who died in battle to replenish recruits, cannot be transferred on a large scale, otherwise, the acquired specialties will automatically become invalid.

This setting is to prevent some lords from taking advantage of the loopholes and using the elite troops in the territory to cheat and help other divisions complete the trial.

The establishment of the First Division in Shanhai County is just a stopgap measure.

The First Division is scattered in three large camps in the west, north, and east of the city, and they are not under each other’s control. They will definitely be split up in the future.

[Legion Trial] task, so Ouyang Shuo had to reorganize the army in advance.

He entrusted this task to Bai Qi, who was fully responsible for it, with the assistance of Ge Hongliang, the Director of Military Affairs.

Bai Qi’s position is still pending, Ouyang Shuo just assigned a temporary title of chief of military affairs, which is equivalent to the commander of the whole army in wartime, and authorized Bai Qi to lead the army of Shanhai County with full authority.

Since arriving in Shanhai County, besides staying in the new barracks in the western suburbs, Bai Qi has traveled all over the three camps in the west, north and east of the city, inspecting the entire army of Shanhai County.

After a week of on-the-spot investigation and deliberation, Bai Qi finally came up with his army adjustment plan.

There were only Ouyang Shuo, Bai Qi, and Ge Hongliang in the study of the Hou Mansion, which showed the high level of the meeting.

Bai Qi did not directly throw out the army adjustment plan, but first explained the problems he found: “After investigation, I found that there are several main problems in the army of Shanhai County:

First, the army is not balanced, there are more cavalry and less infantry. A division, including the Guards Brigade and the Independent Brigade, has five cavalry brigades out of seven brigades, not including the light cavalry battalions configured by the first and third brigades. Cavalry accounts for 70% to 80%.

Second, They don’t pay attention to reconnaissance and logistics. Not only are the brigades not equipped with special reconnaissance scouts and firehead troops, but even the first division does not have such an organization, which is really incredible.

The military intelligence department is responsible for the military intelligence investigation in front of the station, and the wartime investigation should be completed by the troops participating in the war.

Junliang pills cannot completely replace the role of grain and grass, and the Huotou Army has its necessity for its existence.

Third, the light and heavy are mixed, and the mix of foot and horse is serious.

Take the 1st and 4th Brigades stationed in the camp west of the city as an example. There are both mountain barbarian heavy infantry who march extremely slowly, and light cavalry who are known for their speed.

As a result, the overall marching speed was completely dragged down by the mountain barbarian heavy infantry, and the advantage of the light cavalry was buried.

Fourth, there are few arms.

In the entire division, there are only light and heavy cavalry, sword and shield soldiers, spearmen, and archers. Crossbowmen, pikemen, sword and shield soldiers and other arms are extinct.

”

Bai Qi’s analysis made Ouyang Shuo ashamed. Originally he was very proud of his army reorganization, but now it seems that it is full of loopholes and nonsense.

Ouyang Shuo solemnly got up and bowed to Bai Qi: ” Also ask the general to enlighten me!

”

Ge Hongliang is also blushing. As the director of military affairs, he has not fulfilled his duty of assisting the princes and improving the army structure. He is really incompetent. It is no

wonder that Ge Hongliang was the staff officer of a brigade at the highest level in the army before. How to deal with such a huge army, the knowledge is limited.

Except for Ge Hongliang, UU Kanshu www.sonicmtl.com is the three historical generals who have the ability to remind Ouyang Shuo.

Shi Wansui can be regarded as one of the three generals with a high military quality. , but with his temperament, even if he realizes that it might be wrong, he won’t think deeply about it. As long as he can fight, he doesn’t care what to do.

Not to mention evil, he was born in the Shang Dynasty, and military theory is still in its infancy , he is a strong general, how does he understand these troubles?

Luo Shixin has just joined the army not long ago, and his qualifications are still inexperienced, so he will not speak nonsense.

In this way, the situation in front of him was created entirely by Ouyang Shuo, a layman. According to my own understanding, it is not easy to reorganize the army step by step and expand to the current scale.

Thinking about it carefully, it is actually not easy.

It wasn’t until Bai Qi’s arrival that the fragile side of Shanhai County’s army was fully exposed.

Ouyang Shuo couldn’t help feeling rejoicing in his heart, glad that Bai Qi came to Shanhai County before Shanhai County expanded its army again, before the army developed to the point where it could not be controlled.

(To be continued.)
