Chapter 345: County System and Enfeoffment System(1/2)
Compared with Mu Guiying, Fan Lihua is even better and is vaguely the leader of the four major female heroes.
According to myths and legends, Mu Guiying and Fan Lihua are both apprentices of Lishan’s mother. Their fellow disciples include Zhong Wuyan during the Warring States Period, Zhu Yingtai during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Bai Suzhen during the Southern Song Dynasty.
In the game world constructed by Gaia, Li Shan Lao Mother is just an illusory existence and is unreliable.
Ouyang Shuo was checking Fan Lihua's attributes, but bursts of system announcements came from his ears.
"System announcement: Congratulations to the player Fengqiuhuang for becoming the second lord in the Chinese region to upgrade to a first-level county city, and the reward of merit value is 4,200 points!"
...
"System announcement: Congratulations to player Bai Hua for becoming the third lord in the Chinese region to upgrade to a first-level county city, and rewarding merit value of 4,000 points!"
...
As soon as the announcement was released, players in China were calm.
When Fengqiuhuang and Baihua were successively awarded the title of "Caifenghou" and "Lingxihou", players had already expected the promotion of the two territories. If it weren't for the Battle of Lianzhou, they would probably have been earlier.
Interestingly, Luofeng County actually advanced to Lingxi County in one step.
There is really a way to be the Phoenix Prisoner!
Ouyang Shuo just felt interesting, and the four sisters of green, red, purple and white became a little depressed. They were originally full of confidence and were about to win the second place in the Chinese region, but were taken first by Fengqiuhuang, who was "single and lonely".
So, never underestimate your "opponent".
Feng Guihuang taught the four sisters a lesson.
The county town is the real start for a truly ambitious lord. Only by being promoted to a county town can it really mean that the territory has taken root in the wilderness and established its foundation.
Whether it is a wilderness bandit, an uprising or an uprising army, it is difficult to ascend to the sky if it wants to capture a county town.
County towns, the beginning of hegemony.
In the second year of Gaia, it will also become the year of the county town.
If by the end of Gaia's second year, the territory had not been promoted to a county town, it basically means that the territory completely lost its qualification to compete for the world.
From a county town to a county town, it is a qualitative improvement. It not only represents the change in the city level, but more importantly, the territory will be transformed from a single city into a county land that integrates the upper and lower levels.
For the lord, while bringing greater power, it will also face greater challenges.
The role of talents, especially high-end talents, is becoming increasingly prominent.
Because the lords are basically young people, it is not easy to take charge of a county. Even if Di Chen and others have no one to assist, they still cannot control the operation of a county.
Not to mention siege lions, searching for dragons and pointing a hole, they are all ordinary people in reality. They used to play games and were just adventurers.
For territory management, this model that extremely tests the lord's ability can only be explored slowly.
At the county level, you can still control it freely.
When you arrive at the county town, if you don’t pay attention, you will be derailed.
Gaia's grasp of the scale is very accurate in this regard.
Its ultimate goal is to cultivate a group of real lords or governors. If a lord persists until the end, it will be a ten-year achievement. From a village chief, a town chief, a county magistrate, a county magistrate, or even a country, the gradual experience is enough to make a good piece of material and a good piece of steel.
Members of Shanhai League are lucky in this area.
Because Ouyang Shuo, the "model lord", set an example, as long as they "followed the steps" and basically would not make any mistakes in the general direction.
Some of the measures Ouyang Shuo implemented in the territory include his personal originality, more importantly, and the essence of the five years of his previous life, which were personally practiced and refined by countless lords.
After all, Ouyang Shuo was just standing on the shoulders of the giant.
Ouyang Shuo's ability to support it until now is entirely due to his rebirth, which makes his character and experience far exceed his peers, and coupled with the assistance of a large number of historical talents.
After Shanhai County was promoted, Ouyang Shuo decisively reformed the system and implemented the county system, and this is the root cause.
The Battle of Lianzhou is a strong proof.
Even if Ouyang Shuo is not there, Bai Qi and Du Ruhui are in charge of the command, and all the division commanders are famous generals, and they all have the ability to make decisions on the spot, and the government system is running smoothly.
How can you not win?
Therefore, the later we go, the more we have to rely on the strength of the team.
The lord is the helmsman and navigator of this team.
In the past life, the lords had different views on the operating model after the county town.
Overall, there are two models that are popular.
First, it is the county system that Ouyang Shuo is implementing. The county system is applicable to most territories. The advantage is that it is conducive to strengthening the centralization of the lords, and the disadvantage is that it requires a large number of outstanding talents to assist.
If the government is in harmony, people will be harmonious. If the government orders are not in harmony, it will easily cause chaos.
The second is the feudal system, which is also popular with the lords.
The emergence of the feudal system in previous lives had its roots and soil. One is the major forces represented by the Six Hegemons of Handan. If they are big, they will be great, and their internal rights demands are also complex.
In order to balance this right claim, exclusion is an acceptable choice for both parties.
The reason why it is not obvious now is that the county is too small and it is meaningless to enfeoff. Therefore, a tacit understanding has been formed within the major forces.
Before the county town, it was unanimous to the outside world.
After the county town, start to divide the cake. The further you go to the back, the larger the territory and more cities, and the more people stand up to divide the cake, the more corresponding people will be.
Finally, through the enfeoffment, a family bloodline was used as a bond to form an extremely large group.
Not only that, but in fact, the major forces are still making the next big move in secret.
In the Battle of Changping, why did the Yanhuang Alliance win over so many lords and stand on their side?
People’s relationships, connections, etc., are just appearances. More importantly, some lords stand behind them, and they are basically people from the families of major forces.
They do not show off their mountains or show off.
Take Dichen's Handan County as an example. At the beginning of the establishment of Handan Village, the Emperor's family had arranged their clan members to obtain the village construction token through the village construction task, and then build the territory around Handan Village.
Once Handan County or Handan County borders these territories, they will immediately change their flags and integrate into the Handan County system with the situation of being sealed.
In this way, Handan County has so many internal supporters, and it takes almost no time to integrate the surrounding territories. Some innocent lords are still trying to form alliances with the surrounding territories to fight Handan County.
Unexpectedly, there were members of the Imperial Family hidden in their alliance.
For these lords, it is so sad that they have already fallen into other people's nets and are still ignorant.
Only big forces can play with such big things.
The common people dare not even think about it.
Therefore, the tip of the iceberg that Ouyang Shuo previously speculated was not aimless.
There is also a group that is very fond of the feudal system. They are major alliances that have quietly risen recently, led by local tyrants.
In the early stages of the alliance, unanimous external conflicts were not revealed.
When other surrounding territories are cleared, the only alliance will remain in the region.
There should be disputes within the alliance and be on guard against each other.
Internal fighting is undoubtedly the most inferior option, because it will greatly weaken the strength of the alliance. If one is not well grasped, the status of the local tyrant will be lost, and it will even be annexed by other giants.
So how to solve the distribution of interests within the alliance so as not to let the alliance fall apart?
The feudal system is the best choice.
The leader of the alliance is the nominal emperor. The members of the alliance are the princes of all sizes. The princes are both relatively independent and united, and are united to the outside world.
From the perspective of historical development, the county system is naturally superior to the feudal system. However, in the game, it does not matter whether it is the best or the other, but it varies from person to person.
************
Get back to the point.
After the establishment of Yashan Village, the Expeditionary Force began to become busy again.
The first thing is to move the temporary camp to Yashan Village.
Although Ouyang Shuo, as Bing'er's guardian, had the authority to manage the territory, he could not use his title to Bing'er, allowing Yashan Village to break through the level limit.
Fortunately, the game is relatively free, you can break through levels and build various buildings.
Therefore, except for the already built quarries, logging farms, and salt farms, farms and ports under construction, the remaining buildings will be planned directly at the county level.
Ouyang Shuo was ready for the architectural drawings as well.
Ouyang Shuo directly ordered Yashan Village to be renamed Yashan City.
The overall planning of Yashan City is naturally under the responsibility of Sun Xiaoyue. During this period, Xiaoyue was not idle and took her design team and followed the Imperial Guard Brigade to travel around the surrounding areas.
The basic urban planning has been formed.
According to the plan, the first priority is naturally to build a city wall. The dangerous environment of Yazhou determines that only by building a solid city wall first can there be security guarantees and peace of minds.
The city walls of Yashan City are planned in total, divided into inner city and outer city. The inner city wall is three kilometers long, the outer city wall is ten kilometers long, and the city wall is built in reference to the Shanhai City wall.
Because of limited manpower, we can only choose to build the inner wall first.
Fortunately, the second batch of immigrants are already on the road and will arrive in Yazhou soon. After the second batch of immigrants arrive, the construction of Yashan City will surely be raised to a new speed.
To be continued...
