The weather in August is getting hotter and hotter.
The team led by Wang Qi has returned to Jizhou from Bingzhou.
Yang Shanjun and Xiao Qingzhi both returned together. Li Sheng did not return to Jizhou, but temporarily stayed in Taiyuan, Bingzhou, to help Wang Qi take charge of Bingzhou and stabilize the situation in Bingzhou. However, Wang Qi did not give Li Sheng many troops. Only 20,000 people were stationed in Taiyuan.
The rest of the people were withdrawn.
Wang Qi¡¯s biggest gain from this trip, at least in Wang Qi¡¯s view, was not the killing of Yili Mu and others on the grassland. The biggest gain is that it has gained the hearts and minds of the entire Bingzhou and Jizhou, and gained the support of the people. In addition, there are Jizhou warriors, all of whom belong to Wang Qi and are willing to serve Wang Qi.
This is the most important.
With Jizhou warriors joining the army, the overall strength of the army will be greatly improved.
After Wang Qi returned to Yecheng in Jizhou, he could already meet some people along the way. Today's Jizhou, although it has recovered a bit, is not even a little bit worse than it was in the past.
Even if it can barely regain its vitality for the time being, when it comes to prosperity, it cannot be restored within a year or two. The loss of population cannot be made up for in a short time.
The situation in Jizhou is different from that in Qingzhou in the past. In the past, Qingzhou was full of bandits and bandits. The people headed by Lu Shengqi massacred the government, beheaded the noble families, and caused Qingzhou to decline.
Although Qingzhou was turbulent after Wang Qi took over, under the turmoil, with Wang Qi's governance, the local area quickly recovered its vitality. Then homeless people from all over the world gathered in Qingzhou, bringing Qingzhou a Large population.
The increase in population has further accelerated Qingzhou¡¯s recovery, leading to its current scale.
Today¡¯s Jizhou, without this premise, Cao Xuan would not let the population flow away, and Youzhou and Bingzhou themselves were in decline. This led to Jizhou¡¯s recovery not happening overnight.
Wang Qi arrived in Yecheng and temporarily stationed in Yecheng.
On the one hand, the army is resting and reorganizing, and on the other hand, it is to understand the situation in Jizhou.
Wang Qi first summoned Jizhou Mu Qiuji to learn about the current situation in Jizhou. Qiu Ji is a capable person. After years of hard work, his methods are sophisticated and he is very steady in doing things. In addition, Jizhou is already in a mess and there are no constraints. With Zhu Shanchang's continuous support from the rear, Jizhou is now It was fairly stable and there were no big troubles.
After Wang Qi met with Qiu Ji, he walked out of the Chinese army tent where they were resting and went to the tent where Wang Zongxi was stationed.
When the father and son met, Wang Zongxi looked happy and said: "Shou Zheng, when you went north to the Huns, you showed your majesty as a son of the Wang family. This battle was quite good."
Wang Qi said: "Father is so complimentary."
Wang Zongxi continued: "After the war is over, I will prepare to go north and return to Youzhou. After all, the Xianbei side will continue to use troops to fulfill its old promise and help the Tuoba tribe to destroy the rest of the Xianbei tribe. This matter is not needed. If you intervene, the troops under my command alone will be enough to solve this problem."
Wang Qi said: "Thank you for your hard work, father."
Wang Zongxi said: "There is no hard work. Being a father is not hard. Having something to do and being able to do what you like is something you can't get in a lifetime. You can't ask for it."
After a pause, Wang Zongxi said: "There is one more thing I want to ask you."
Wang Qidao: "Father, please tell me."
Wang Zongxi said: "Recently, I was stationed in Jizhou City and heard some news. Many people began to discuss the time when you will proclaim the emperor. When do you plan to proclaim the emperor?"
Wang Qi smiled and said, "Why did father ask about this?"
Wang Zongxi¡¯s eyes were intense and he looked extremely solemn, and said: ¡°You kid, you have always had your own opinion. Don¡¯t change the subject, just tell the truth. Do you want to be emperor and when do you plan to be emperor?¡±
Wang Qi's expression gradually became serious and he said: "Father, the matter of proclaiming the emperor depends on the situation. If not, it will be carried out. Of course, it will be a matter of time. After all, the Qi State was established. If I have been attached to the Zhou Dynasty, do you think that my subordinates will Are these people willing?"
"At that time, it was God who did not take the initiative and took the blame. Therefore, naturally I have to do what I should do. As for the time of proclaiming the emperor, it depends on the situation and is temporarily undetermined. If it is suitable, I will proclaim the emperor."
Wang Qidao: "If the time is not right, I will still be the King of Qi for the time being."
Wang Zongxi nodded, he fully supported his son's matter, no matter what it was, he supported it.
He is a father first.
Wang Zongxi said: "What I want to say as a father is that any father canAt this time, first of all, your father will fully support you. However, his father was also the Zhenbei Marquis of the Great Zhou Dynasty. So even if you become emperor, you don't need to consider me or respect me. You can still be the Marquis of Zhenbei. "
Wang Qidao: "My son understands."
Wang Zongxi said: "Okay, now that you're back, I'm going to move our troops north and return to Youzhou."
Wang Qidao: "Father, take care of yourself."
Wang Zongxi said: "I know, you do too."
The father and son did not talk much, but they had a tacit understanding. After leaving the camp together, Wang Qi returned to his camp, while Wang Zongxi went straight to mobilize the army and prepare to leave.
Wang Qi has not set off yet. After all, there are some warriors in the army whose families are in Jizhou. When these people return to Jizhou, they should make arrangements and visit their families.
So, Wang Qi stayed in Yecheng for another five days.
One after another, many warriors came back. After these warriors returned to the team, they no longer had worries and were even more motivated to fight. They are now used to everything in the military and prefer to stay in the military.
On this day, when Wang Qi was preparing to return, an urgent report came from Linzi and was quickly delivered to Wang Qi. Wang Qi opened it to check. When he saw the contents of the letter, his face suddenly became more angry, and his eyes became more stern.
Zhou Zishan happened to be in the camp, discussing matters with Wang Qi. Zhou Zishan saw Wang Qi's face sinking like water and asked, "Your Highness, what happened?"
Wang Qidao: "The Japanese country provoked and landed and plundered from Zhang'an County, Kuaiji County. Yan Chixing led his troops to encircle and suppress them, but they were ambushed instead. Yan Chixing was even seriously injured. Thanks to the soldiers' full rescue efforts, he was able to escape." Rescue Yan Chixing. Otherwise, Yan Chixing will die on the battlefield."
While talking, Wang Qi handed over the letter.
Zhou Zishan took it and looked at it quickly. He frowned and had a cold look on his face.
Zhou Zishan also knew about the Japanese people. After all, Xuzhou in the past was a prosperous commercial place, and Japanese businessmen often came to do business. Even some people from the Japanese country wandered over and robbed merchants at sea.
Zhou Zishan said: "Your Highness, it stands to reason that the Japanese are not very strong and scattered, so how can they dare to plunder? Especially when the Japanese caught Yan Chixing off guard, and Yan Chixing was almost killed. This It¡¯s a little weird.¡±
Wang Qi nodded and said: "It is indeed strange. This matter is still unknown for the time being. Wait until we return to Linzi to see what the specific situation is from the court. After all, this is the news that Zhu Shanchang just sent."
Zhou Zishan said: "Your Highness is wise!"
Wang Qi didn¡¯t waste any more time and ordered the troops to withdraw at full speed.
The army marched on in a mighty manner and returned to Linzi City in mid-August.
In terms of the army, Xiao Qingzhi and Yang Shanjun were responsible for settlement, awards and other related matters. Wang Qi took Zhou Zishan back to the palace and directly called Zhu Shanchang and Zhuge Feng to discuss the provocation of the Japanese. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
