Chen Zi'ang held a grand triumphant welcome ceremony for Gu Xingteng and others who went on an expedition to the barbarian area, and personally gave a banquet, giving them extremely high treatment.
In doing so, he also expressed an attitude to the civil and military officials, that is, he valued the meritorious soldiers who opened up the territory and the barbarian areas.
? At the court meeting the next day, Chen Zi'ang also publicly praised Guo Wei, Gu Xingteng and other soldiers of the Seventh Banner Regiment of Public Security in front of civil and military officials.
"They are not afraid of hardships and death. They penetrated thousands of miles into the enemy's territory and captured the enemy chieftain alive. They have carried forward the tenacious fighting spirit of our Qinghe Army. It is worth learning from each of us!"
"I suggest that their heroic fighting deeds should be published and sent to every province, every prefecture, and every department, so that everyone can learn from their fearless and tenacious fighting spirit!"
"Let us cultivate this kind of fighting spirit that is not afraid of difficulties and obstacles, whether we are fighting or doing things, and strive to build a powerful empire!"
Chen Ziang also wanted to take advantage of Guo Wei and his deeds this time to make a big publicity in order to inspire people from all walks of life and improve their morale and fighting spirit.
"The minister obeys the order!"
Pang Lun, chief of the Ministry of Rites, was in charge of the promotion, and after Chen Ziang's reminder, he immediately complied.
You must know that with the birth of the original post newspaper in the Far East Empire, there are now more than a hundred newspapers, large and small.
These newspapers were not only funded by various departments of the imperial court, but also funded by various provinces.
There are also some newspapers that are set up independently by some shrewd businessmen, mainly to promote some of their products.
Throughout the territory of the Far Eastern Empire, newspapers have become an indispensable source of news for merchants and ordinary people.
Most of the ordinary people are illiterate, and they want to know some major events happening in various parts of the empire.
Therefore, a new profession was born, that is, newspaper readers. In some specific places, the daily task of these people is to read various newspapers.
Some people who are interested in these books only need to pay a small amount of money, and others will read them to him.
Naturally, those country gentry and businessmen don't need to join in the fun in these places, they will also subscribe to newspapers, and they can understand them themselves.
By reading these newspapers, they can understand some policies of the imperial court, understand the situation in the surrounding areas, and at the same time make relevant adjustments to the family's industry.
Some time ago, the imperial court vigorously encouraged commerce and trade, and it also vigorously promoted it in various newspapers, and published some exemplary examples.
After such a big publicity in the newspapers, some gentry and rich men also took action one after another.
? Those with less wealth are running some small-scale breeding farms, while those with more wealth have entered the service trade production, commodity logistics and other industries.
Chen Ziang even introduced the concept of company into the empire. Now there are no less than a hundred companies established in the empire in a day, which has formed a considerable scale.
Now Chen Ziang wants to publicize Guo Wei, Gu Xingteng and others who fought in the barbarian area. He also wants to promote the heroes while greatly improving the self-confidence and cohesion of the people of the empire.
Let them know the strength of the Far Eastern Empire, the Far Eastern Empire is inviolable, and the imperial army is their strongest backing.
In addition to asking Pang Lun, the chief of the Ministry of Rites, to publicize Guo Wei, Gu Xingteng and others in order to improve the unity and cohesion within the empire, Chen Ziang also rewarded Guo Wei and others.
Chen Zi'ang personally announced at the court meeting that Guo Wei would be promoted to general and Gu Xingteng would be promoted to lieutenant general, and a large amount of money and other things were rewarded.
"Congratulations, General Gu!"
"Congratulations."
After Chen Ziang announced on the spot, all civil and military officials also congratulated Gu Xingteng one after another.
After all, Gu Xingteng used to be the head of the banner, so it stands to reason that he can only be awarded the rank of school lieutenant.
Now because of this time's credit, he was directly promoted to general and lieutenant general, which is naturally enviable.
Especially now that there is no large-scale war in the Far Eastern Empire, the promotion of generals at all levels has become difficult, and almost all of them stay in place.
Chen Ziang also didn't want to be promoted to a large number of generals inexplicably. If there were too many generals, it would affect the rule of the empire.
So now the civil and military generals of the empire are all carrots and pits. Unless there are special reasons, Chen Ziang has always been stuck in the quota.
?In addition to awarding awards to Guo Wei, Gu Xingteng and others at the first court meeting, Chen Ziang also announced a new decision.
"From now on, the barbarian area will be included in the empire's territory, and the imperial court will set up Anxi tutelary mansion in the barbarian area to govern the barbarian area."
After hearing Chen Ziang's announcement that the barbarians would be included in the empire's ruled area, several chiefs of the imperial court also looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling that Chen Ziang's speed was too fast.
Yesterday Chen Ziang had this intention. They thought Chen Ziang was just joking, but they announced it directly today.
They felt that Chen Ziang's decision was a bit risky, because with the current capabilities of the Far East Empire, it really wasn't appropriate to spread too much.
Especially when the empire is now surrounded by powerful enemies, the establishment of the Anxi tutelary fort will greatly restrict the empire's military strength and money.
But Chen Ziang had already made a decision, and they had no choice, because they had no way to persuade Chen Ziang.
After hearing Chen Ziang's announcement, those middle and low-level officials couldn't help but be overjoyed, and some even started to think about some positions in Anxi's tutelary mansion.
?Because Chen Ziang already had some wind at yesterday's triumphant welcome ceremony, that is, as long as he goes there and stays for a few years, he will be promoted when he comes back, and the treatment is also generous.
Some middle and low-level officials who want to make contributions naturally set their sights on the Anxi tutelary mansion, hoping to sharpen their skills and obtain qualifications for promotion.
"I decided to form the Anxi Legion, with General Guo Wei as the head of the army and Lieutenant General Gu Xingteng as the deputy head of the army. It has five banner regiments to guard the barbarian area!"
"Appoint Zhang Yi, the vice president of the Intelligence Investigation Institute, as the guardian of Anxi, responsible for the governance and enlightenment of the barbarian area"
Chen Ziang settled the matter at the court meeting, that is, he made a design for the ruling structure of the barbarian area at the highest level.
In the past, dynasties and dynasties either directly built cities and garrisoned troops in the western provinces for barbarian areas, and directly implemented a blockade policy.
There are also some imperial courts that remotely control the barbarian areas, canonize the chiefs, and treat them as subordinate areas without actually ruling them.
Now Chen Zi'ang has set up a legion and set up a town guard in order to actually rule the barbarian area and bring it into the empire's territory.
He set up an organization and decided to use itinerant officials to govern the barbarian areas, in order to prevent the sky from being too high and the emperor to be far away, and someone would take the opportunity to become big.
Guo Wei, Gu Xingteng and their troops stationed in the barbarian area also need regular rotation. The soldiers in the interior are three-year period and can be rotated.
At the same time, officials such as the tutelary envoys of the tutelary mansion also had to be rotated, which prevented the formation of local separatist regimes by the feudal officials. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
