As time went by, the wave of immigration triggered by Mazu Temple gradually affected the gentry class and businessmen in Quanzhou.

Shanhai County's beautiful natural environment, reasonable urban planning, good public security, clean government affairs, strong business atmosphere and cultural connotations all attract the attention of gentry and business people.

The Southwest University Hall, the Yellow Emperor Temple, the Recruitment Hall, the Shang Ding and other buildings are all eye-catching.

Only then did they realize that there was such a paradise outside the wilderness.

Shanhai County is already eager to seek talents, and both sides hit it off.

It was like opening a water gate. After the common people, a large number of gentry and businessmen began to choose to settle in Shanhai County. Among them were children from poor families and literati and poets, including many talented people. After settling down, they either entered the Southwest University or entered the official career.

Because of Jiang Shang's existence, Southwest University is more attractive to literati and poets, while most poor scholars choose to become officials.

The business group opened shops in Shanhai County. Some merchants with a keen sense of smell even started their business in Mazu Temple, specializing in selling incense and candles for worship, making a big profit.

After a detailed investigation of Shanhai County, I especially realized that the Cui Chamber of Commerce was in a prosperous state in Shanhai County. Some chambers of commerce in Quanzhou also had the idea of ​​opening a branch in Shanhai County.

The woven abortion brings a large number of customers to Shanhaiyuan, which has just opened, which is really enviable.

Faced with such a good opportunity, Ouyang Shuo immediately informed the Director of Business Xu Zhenchang and asked the Business Department to prepare for an investment promotion conference to introduce the investment policies and business environment of Shanhai County in detail, and attract major chambers of commerce to settle in.

The Administrative Office is not idle either. It cooperates with the Household Registration Department to hold talent recruitment meetings, select talents, and enrich the various departments and departments of Shanhai County and their affiliated territories.

In short, the immigration wave triggered by Mazu Temple is much better than the talent recruitment campaign carried out by the Cui Chamber of Commerce in Dali, which made Ouyang Shuo feel very good.

The grand occasion in front of you is a confirmation of an old saying: if you are willing to plant flowers but don’t bloom, if you are unwilling to plant willows and willows, you will become shade.

The strong talent reserve lays a solid foundation for Shanhai County to be promoted to a county town.

After Ouyang Shuo was still worried about the new round of talent shortage after he was promoted to the county town, he was worried about the shortage of talents. According to the current immigration trend, it was more than enough, so there was no need to worry about talent shortage at all.

As for the original Mazu Temple Fair, with the strong support of various chambers of commerce in Quanzhou, the event was unprecedented.

Mazu's huge influence even alarmed the Quanzhou court, and specially sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to Shanhai County for inspection and presented the plaque "Mazu Temple" given by the emperor.

In this way, Mazu's belief was spread explosively.

What made Ouyang Shuo ecstatic was that with the blessing of incense, Mazu Temple was directly unsealed in one step.

"System prompt: The statue of Mazu is blessed by incense, officially unblocked, restored to its original appearance, greatly increased its divine power, and the attributes of Mazu Temple have been greatly improved. Please check it yourself."

At this time, the statue of Mazu emitted a soft divine light, which could be seen from afar. Such a miracle made the believers who were visiting the temple excited and burst into tears.

The second miracle of Mazu Temple once again sparked the ** of the Mazu faith in Quanzhou.

The just-salvation of immigration has once again set off one peak after another. The people of Quanzhou firmly believe that it was their piety that moved Mazu, and thus brought down miracles and blessed believers.

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

【Name】: Mazu Temple

【Type】:Hidden building

【Function】: Spread Mazu faith, improve residents' satisfaction by 30%, and increase territory's visibility by 10%

【Features】: Sea God bless (the fleet's sea navigation ability is increased by 40%), ride the wind and waves (the ship's navigation speed is increased by 30%)

[Evaluation]: Mazu, the sea god belief centered on the southeastern coast of China.

After the unsealed Mazu Temple, the architectural function was greatly improved. Not only that, it also derived a second architectural feature [Ride the Wind and Waves], which increased the navigation speed of the ship.

As a sea god, the Shanhai County Navy has these two characteristics to bless the ocean, and it will not be far away.

With the unseal of the Mazu Temple, the Mazu Temple has put a perfect end to this Mazu event. The Mazu Temple has also become an important bridge and link connecting the two cities of Quanzhou and Shanhai County.

Although the grand event has come to an end, the aftermath continues.

Although the peak of immigration has passed, hundreds of Quanzhou natives still rushed to Shanhai County every day to worship Mazu or settle here.

As Shanhai County gradually became familiar to Quanzhou, the immigrant group had long spread from pure loyal believers to various talents who came to Shanhai County to make a living.

The scene that happened in Shanhai County made the lords of the world look at it, some envious and jealous, some tainted and slandered, some sincere congratulations, some mixed with fish and dragons.

No matter how the outside world commented, Ouyang Shuo remained unmoved. After the Mazu Temple Fair ended, Ouyang Shuo handed over the immigration and investment promotion matters to the Administration and Finance Department and no longer asked about it.

The outstanding talents recruited will be temporarily temporarily resettled by Fan Zhongyan. After the territory is promoted to a county town, unified arrangements will be made.

From the county town to the county town, it is a qualitative breakthrough, and there must be some major innovation in the government structure. The relevant personnel layout has been brewing in Ouyang Shuo's mind.

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

After the grand event, Ouyang Shuo's eyes began to turn to Mission 4 [League Trial].

[League Trial] A division requires a division to pass the legion trial. There is currently only one division in Shanhai County. Logically speaking, there is nothing to hesitate about. Just arrange the first division trial directly.

The problem is that Ouyang Shuo hesitated after checking the system's settings on the Legion Trial in detail.

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

The key to the problem is that after passing the trial, the soldiers participating in the trial of the division cannot carry out large-scale mobilization except for the casualties and replenishment of new recruits, otherwise the acquired specialties will automatically fail.

This setting is to prevent some lords from taking advantage of loopholes and using 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 temporary measure. The First Division is scattered in the west, north and east of the city, and is not subordinate to each other and will definitely be divided in the future.

[League Trial] mission forced Ouyang Shuo to reorganize the army in advance. He handed over this task to Bai Qi, with Bai Qi fully responsible, and the Director of Military Affairs Ge Hongliang assisted.

Bai Qi's position is still pending. Ouyang Shuo only set up a temporary position of general military affairs, equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the entire army during the war, and authorized Bai Qi to fully lead the army of Shanhai County.

Since he arrived in Shanhai County, Bai Qi has been traveling all over the west, north and east of the city, inspecting the entire Shanhai County army, except for staying in the western suburbs of Xingang Camp.

After a week of field investigation and planning, Bai Qi finally came up with his military adjustment plan.

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

Bai Qi did not directly introduce the military adjustment plan, but first explained the problems he found: "After investigation, I found that there are several major problems in the Shanhai County army:

First, the combination of troops is uneven, with more cavalry and few infantry. The First Division, including the Imperial Guard Brigade and the Independent Brigade, has five cavalry brigades out of the seven brigades, not including the light cavalry battalions arranged by the First Brigade and the Third Brigade. Cavalry occupies 70 to 80%.

Secondly, it does not attach importance to reconnaissance and logistics. Not only does each brigade have no special reconnaissance scouts and firehead troops, but even the First Division does not have such a structure, which is incredible.

The Military Information Department is responsible for military information reconnaissance in front of the station. The wartime reconnaissance should be completed by the participating troops. Military rations cannot completely replace the role of food and grass, and the Fire Head Army is necessary for its existence.

Third, the light and heavy are mixed, and the infantry and cavalry are seriously mixed. Taking the First Brigade and the Fourth Brigade stationed in the west camp of the city as examples, there are both mountain barbarian heavy infantry with extremely slow marching and light cavalry with good speed. In this way, the overall marching speed is completely dragged down by mountain barbarian heavy infantry, and the advantages of the light cavalry are buried.

Fourth, there are fewer troops. The entire division has only light and heavy cavalry, sword and shield soldiers, spearmen and archers, crossbowmen, spearmen, sword and shield soldiers and other types of troops have disappeared."

Bai Qi's analysis made Ouyang Shuo feel ashamed. He was originally very proud of his army reorganization, but now it seems that it is full of loopholes and nonsense.

Ouyang Shuo stood up solemnly and saluted Bai Qi: "Please give me advice to you!"

Ge Hongliang was also blushed. As the Director of Military Affairs, he failed to fulfill his obligation to assist the lord and improve the military structure. It was really incompetent.

No wonder Ge Hongliang, who was the highest in the official army, was just a brigade's staff officer. How could he handle such a huge army have limited insights.

In addition to Ge Hongliang, there are three historical generals who have the ability to remind Ouyang Shuo.

Shi Wansui is one of the three generals with higher military literacy, but with his nature, even if he realizes that it may be inappropriate, he will not think deeply about it. As long as he can fight, he will do whatever he does.

Not to mention evil, he was born in the Shang Dynasty and his military theory was still in its infancy. He was also a powerful general, how could he understand these things?

Luo Shixin has just joined the army shortly after he has little experience and will not speak out.

In this way, the situation in front of us was created entirely by Ouyang Shuo, a layman, who gradually reorganized the army according to his own understanding and developed to its current scale.

If you think about it carefully, it is actually not easy.

It was not until Bai Qi's arrival that the fragile side of the Shanhai County army was completely exposed.
Chapter completed!
