Chapter 960 New official takes office Part 1

Now that we have decided to take action against Liangzhou, we need to adjust our strategy.
On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, Bu Xun ordered the emperor to issue an imperial edict to abdicate after the great meeting on the first day of the second lunar month.
Before that, he continued to prepare for the founding of the country.
It was mainly the confluence, selection and appointment of officials from the Jin Dynasty and Liang State.
As we all know, Liang was a vassal state under the Jin Dynasty. It had an incomplete official system and only managed twenty counties.
The governance of areas beyond the twenty counties is mainly guided by the general's office to guide the states and counties.
Now the two teams are merging.
If we don't handle this matter well, the founding of the country will be stumbling and there will be many problems.
Against this background, Shao Xun issued a series of orders. Shao Xu, the prefect of Wei County, was appointed as the commander of the Sili School to inspect the counties of Sizhou:
Du Yin was appointed governor of Youzhou to replace Yuan Chong, who had just died of illness in the first month;
With righteousness, Man Yu, the governor, was appointed as the prefect of Tianshui;
Take Xu Yu, formerly of the Suzi Army, as the righteous subordinate governor;
Duan Mobo, the governor of Luoyan, is the regular attendant of the scattered cavalry;
Yin Xi, a cavalryman from the general's palace, was appointed as Luoyan governor;
After checking the actual number of Wansheng Army, the families of those who died of illness, those who died in battle, and those who were disabled were each given two pieces of silk. Luoyang and Dongyuan Qianjian made a new Yongjia Tongbao, and the overall reduction was reduced to four battalions, with Yang Qin, Yuan Xi, and Liu
Ling and Zheng Dong took charge respectively.
Carry out drills after spring sowing;
The last three orders are related to military affairs.
After a little reading, I found out that Shao Xun was not satisfied with Yi Congjun and Luoyan Army, so he replaced them.
Of course, the reasons for this are complicated and may not have anything to do with the generals.
Since the defeat of Shi Le, Liu Cong, and Tuoba clan, they have often fought with cavalry.
The Yi Cong and Luo Yan armies had a high casualty rate, and they often fought and replenished their troops. The military academy had a lot of casualties, and the battalions were full of new recruits, and they were always in a state of constant blood loss.
Now that he could breathe a sigh of relief, he replaced him with officials he trusted, strengthened training, and reorganized his troops.
There are almost only 40,000 Wan Sheng Army left, so it is appropriate to reduce it to four battalions. If these people had not settled down for several years, Shao Xun would have even wanted to move them to Luoyang instead of gathering them in Pingyang, Hedong, and Hongnong counties.
In addition to these commands, there are two others that are quite eye-catching -
"This is the Imperial Government Office." Shao Xun stopped in front of a six-frame palace building and said.
The eldest son Shao Zhang looked up and saw that there were many government offices lined up here, and they were all hung with plaques. They were: Zuo Xiaoqiwei, Right Xiaoqiwei, Zuo Feilong Guard, Right Feilong Guard, Zuo Jinwu Guard, and Right Jinwu Guard.
, the left feather forest guard, the right feather forest guard, and the left feather forest guard one by one are closed, obviously not yet activated.
This is the highest organization that manages the army.
The various guard offices are lined up in a row and are not subordinate to each other. Regardless of the number of soldiers, they are all on the same level.
The position they are currently standing on is the Zuo Xiao Cavalry Guard.
Originally, the highest officer was Shao Shen, who was in charge as a guerrilla general. Recently, the military system has continued to reform.
General Zuo Xiao Cavalry Guard (third grade) was directly established, and Shao Shen was appointed as the commander.
In the future, these miscellaneous generals in the Dapu Dynasty may not necessarily be installed, or they may be used as posthumous gifts after the death of officials, or to unite the Hu chieftains.
The government soldiers are not under the control of the Five Soldiers Cao. It is just a bit of cross-border business. The whole is under the direct control of the emperor. The generals of the guards are also directly responsible to the emperor. This can be seen from the fact that the government office is located in the palace city instead of the imperial city - generally
Only the offices of the prime minister and chamberlains were located within the palace city.
To put it simply, the emperor issued an edict, and the various military offices convened the main officials to read it in public, and then jointly issued an order to mobilize troops.
The officials in charge of the specific affairs then took the military talisman and sent the order to Zhulong Mansion, read it in public, and assembled to set off.
This is how the soldiers who are now guarding Luoyang came.
The process was a bit stumbling at the beginning, and some people found it troublesome, but after dealing with several people, everyone knew that they had to follow the rules.
For example, an order to mobilize troops will not work if one person is missing from the order, unless he is away on business or recuperating at home.
Shao Zhang knew the news yesterday, so he did his homework carefully and gained a deeper understanding of the Fubing system.
"From tomorrow onwards, the post of Shanglin Yuanling will be handed over to others." Shao Xun said: "You go to Zuojinwu Guards to serve as the chief historian. This position is the sixth rank, which is higher than that of Shanglin Yuanling. You know how it will be held.
?」
"Judgment on the affairs of our guards."
"Compile the military register and count the troops, chariots, horses, flags and drums of the Dragon Mansion."
"If there is a reward, make a book and distribute it."
"An acre of land in the army is equal to one zhang in three years."
"Every autumn, General Zan Benwei takes the exam."
To put it simply, Chang Shi is the chief steward of the generals. He handles trivial daily affairs and at the same time conducts assessments on the generals, which has a sense of surveillance.
The Changshi directly manages all the Cao Cao in the army, such as Cang Cao, Bing Cao, Qi Cao, Kai Cao, etc.
In short, the Yiwei is a system, a complete military management organization, comprehensively covering thousands or even nearly ten thousand soldiers of the army.
This system was formulated by Wang Yan and others for a long time, was rejected several times by Shao Xun, revised repeatedly, and finally perfected.
"It seems that you have done your homework." Shao Xun said with satisfaction: "Let's go and have a look at the Zuojinwu Guards. There are also other superior guards in the palace. If you have time, you can take care of them one by one. You can figure it out yourself.
"
After saying that, he came to Zuojinwuwei Yamen.
Chang Can, the former general of the Zuo Army and now the general of the Zuo Jinwu Guard, heard the alarm coming from the gate and immediately left the courtyard gate, saluting from a distance.
Shao Xun saw a large group of people shouting behind Chang Can and said with a smile: "Chang Can, how is the scene today?"
"Your Majesty, I never thought that one day I would be able to serve as an official in the palace." Chang Can said, "Back then I could only do business in the mountains and forests."
"What deal are you asking for?" Shao Xun asked with a smile.
"Business without capital." Chang Can said nonchalantly.
Everyone laughed.
Although some people are smiling, their expressions are complicated.
Chang Can was born a bandit and was vulgar and illiterate. He was forced to read by the King of Liang, but now he can only barely read official documents.
He couldn't understand the slightly unfamiliar words in the article, let alone the crooked writing, which was very ugly.
When working on a daily basis, I often curse at others.
Some people who failed to do things well were even whipped by him with a horsewhip, which was completely true to the military style.
The previous long history was so angry that he quit his job and directly resigned and returned to his hometown in Xuzhou.
He is here to be an official, not to be angered.
What's more, Zuo Jinwu's guard chief history is a standard military service, which is very complicated and laborious. It is not a noble position and is not very interesting.
Of course Shao Xun knew what Chang Can had caused, so he came today.
"I sent Dalang to you to be your elder." Shao Xun turned sideways and said, "My son is here to pay homage to Shangguan."
"I've met the general." Shao Zhang took two steps forward and bowed.
"Hey, I can't do it, I can't do it!" Chang Can responded with a funny salute and said, "You are the king's son, so there is no need for this."
After Shao Zhang finished saluting, he met with Zuo Jinwu Guard's colleagues one by one.
These people will be his subordinates from now on, and he will be able to understand them one by one.
"Let's go in and take a look." Shao Xun waved his hand and entered first.
After entering the courtyard gate, there are soldiers on duty everywhere inside, especially in the corridor. There is a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps.
There are also mobile patrol teams, all of which come from the Zuojinwu Guards. Not all the government offices are guarded by their own guards, but the Zuojinwu Guards just happen to stay in this area.
"Are you Feng Bachi?" Shao Xun stopped in the courtyard, looked at a small school principal with a puffed-up chest and belly, and asked with some uncertainty.
"That's the last general." Feng Bachi bowed to the ground excitedly and said, "Feng Bachi, the deputy general of Pingqiu Long Mansion, pays homage to the king."
"Get up." Shao Xun said, "You will lead all the guards in Pingqiu?"
"yes.'
"How many people came?"
"three hundred."
"Just a precaution?"
"Yes, this year we will defend this, next year we will defend that, the four defenses will come in turn." Feng Bachi replied.
"How was it on the way up?" Shao Xun asked again.
"It's not far." Feng Bachi said: "Starting from Pingqiu, we passed Chenggao and then entered Henan Prefecture. I can't remember the exact distance. I walked for ten days in total."
"Where to stay on the road?"
"Each county has its faults. The houses are a little dilapidated, but they can provide shelter from wind and rain, which is enough."
Shao Xun turned around.
Cao Junjun, who was in the Zuojinwu Weicang, immediately stepped forward, sweating profusely, and said: "Your Majesty, the counties want to hand over the pass to the military government, saying they have no money to repair it. But the military government also has no money and food, and the predecessor Yan Changshi refused to accept it, saying
I asked the county to repair it, so I pushed it to now."
"Where's the money——"
Shao Xun sighed with emotion and said: "What happened should be under the control of the military government. The matter of money and food will be settled by Guhui. After saying this, he looked at Feng Bachi and asked: "How much does it cost to go from home to Luoyang?"
"I brought thirty pieces of Hu biscuits before I went out, and I finished them on the way." Feng Bachi said, "I bought some in Chenggao, but they were too expensive."
When Feng Bachi was talking, all the officials in Zuojinwu Guard turned green. Why did you say anything?
Chang Can didn't think there was anything wrong. When he was fighting with King Liang, everyone talked like this, and King Liang didn't take it seriously.
"How much more did it cost last time than at home?" Shao Xun asked.
"Fifty percent more." Feng Bachi said.
He knew how much he had eaten, so he blurted it out.
Shao Xun nodded.
There are still 200 acres of land for the soldiers. If there are only a dozen acres, then it is impossible to eat food every day on weekdays. Instead, they eat a mixture of vegetables, fruits, mulberries and other things.
At this time, a long-distance expedition will be a huge expense, and you may need to borrow money.
But if there are only one or two hundred acres, it is not a problem. This additional expense can be fully afforded. Let alone a ten-day march, a hundred-day march can be afforded.
The key is the land.
"How is the countryside?" Shao Xun asked, "Is there anyone encroaching on the fields?"
"No." Feng Bachi seemed to have heard something incredible. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare. Finally he could only say: "Your Majesty, no one dares to steal our land."
There is a difference between government soldiers and guard soldiers.
The superior officers of the government soldiers only have the power to summon them for training and to command during wartime. They have no jurisdiction during peacetime.
The soldiers of the government are scattered in various villages, living their own lives, training their own basic martial arts, and waiting for the fixed training period throughout the year.
Fu Bing's land was mainly divided or secretly sold by himself.
"After listening for so long, have you gained anything?" Shao Xun looked at his son and asked.
"I will tell you one by one after I take office tomorrow."
"Hold on." Shao Xun waved his hand and said, "You can make up your own mind, I don't care."
"Yes." Shao Zhang responded.
He heard it.
Expeditions are the biggest expense for the soldiers, and land is their main income.
I'm afraid I won't be able to satisfy my father just sitting in the palace, so I have to go down there for a walk.
He has decided that in two days he will go to Chenliu County, where Zuo Jinwu's guards gather, to have a look.
And going out is not that easy. With all the entourage around you, the cost of escort is not a small amount.
Shao Zhang sighed when he thought of the expression on his bride's face. He still had to ask her for money.
After less than a year of marriage, the jealous wife can no longer hide her true nature.
When I went to Shanglinyuan, I bought two Qiang girls, but Mrs. Liu drove over in person and took the two girls away.
At that time, he said things like "your father's nature is fishy" and "the Shao family will breed".
This virtue of Mr. Liu made him extremely upset, so much so that he wondered if his mother had been deceived in the first place.
