For a few days, Fang Zian was extremely busy, just for the establishment of a new yamen. Establishing a brand new yamen is not a simple matter. The newly straightened out personnel relations, official levels and division of labor require all

Start over.

The first thing to do is to build a new personnel structure.

Although the previous Fangyu Army Yamen had an inherent structure, some basic adjustments were made after Fang Zian accepted it. But most of them were actually about personnel adjustments. That is to abolish and replace all the personnel previously appointed by Xia Liangdong and replace them with those who can do the work.

people. In fact, the basic principle at that time was still to focus on stability, without major changes to the structure, and the promotion of personnel was mainly based on recommendation and training. Fang Zian only needed a functioning Fangyu Military Yamen, which he could control

Fangyujunyamen and other matters were not considered too much.

However, things are different now. The establishment of the new Yamen is a new starting point for him. In his heart, Fang Zian has a lot of expectations for the New Yamen. As a company that is about to become his important foundation and qualifications, he has almost complete control over it, and he will definitely become a new Yamen in the future.

Fang Zian decided to rebuild the structure of the most important force at his disposal and make some adjustments to personnel. And this time the adjustment focused not only on being able to do things, but also on being loyal to oneself and not being able to do anything.

Execute your orders to the letter. Even the latter will be the most important criterion.

The Fire Department formed its own army, creating a new branch of arms in the Song Dynasty, which was unique in the past. Although it was affiliated with the Shenwu Central Army, its responsibilities and functions were completely different from those of the Forbidden Army. Fang Zian actually did not want the Fire Army to be

It was established to have the same function of serving the public as later generations. In his heart, in addition to those explicit responsibilities, Fang Zian also hoped that the fire army would be a real army. Therefore, in terms of building the structure, Fang Zian

It was decided to reorganize according to the organizational structure of the Forbidden Army.

The Fire Army is actually a military-level organization. Generally speaking, an army in the Song Dynasty army has an organization of 2,500 people. It has three levels: battalion, capital, and team. One army has five battalions, one battalion has five capitals, and one capital

Five teams. The battalion level is commanded by a deputy general or a reserve general. One battalion of 500 people has five headquarters. One capital has 100 people and has five squads of 20 people. For the fire army, the entire army office

The number of people under its jurisdiction is only 1,500, including nearly 200 handymen and logistics personnel, as well as civilian auxiliary personnel. Strictly speaking, this is not actually a full-scale military office. However, due to its special nature, it has

Cheng Yijun doesn’t need to delve into this.

Fang Zian decided to organize all the soldiers formally established in the yamen into three battalions, with each battalion having 400 people. Each battalion has a different division of labor. Two battalions are responsible for fire fighting and disaster relief, and the remaining battalion is responsible for other matters.

As a result, the personnel seemed to be nervous, but Fang Zian knew that this was only temporary. Each fire watch tower station had to have three submersible fire teams with a staff of 80 or 90 people, and dozens of people were often present during firefighting.

.That is because the fire-fighting methods are primitive, the means are backward, and the equipment is useless. Once the Dragon King Car is built, a fire can be extinguished by only more than ten people with the powerful means of the Dragon King Car and the Ladder Truck. Therefore, what is needed

Manpower is greatly reduced and efficiency is high

A big improvement. Because of this, Fang Zian did not bother with Yang Cunzhong on the increase in soldiers.

The recently established special service mobile team was completely cancelled, because with the sufficient fire-fighting equipment, the existence of the special service mobile team has little significance. However, the inspection brigade is still retained, because a soft structure such as assessment, training, supervision and punishment is obviously needed

reserved. The additional quota of more than 100 people outside the three battalions will all be included in the establishment of the Yamen Audit Brigade.

Other than that, the structure of the yamen is pretty much the same. The imperial court will send chief officials to take charge of administrative work. Other paperwork and other affairs are also similar to before. There are ready-made manpower to handle them directly and seamlessly.

That’s it.

After the overall structure has been sorted out, it is time to arrange personnel. This is actually much more important than the structure. This time, Fang Zian naturally wants to be the most active, most loyal to himself, and most capable in doing things during this period.

and the passionate group of people were all promoted. Although it was said that official positions above the capital required Yang Cunzhong's approval, Fang Zian knew that it was actually just a procedure. Yang Cunzhong just wanted to tell himself in this way that the new Yamen

They were soldiers and horses under his command. Yang Cunzhong had no need to reject the list of official positions he submitted.

Li Dalong, Thunder Tiger, and Zhao Gang are absolutely reliable. In addition, Fang Zianxin also has many candidates in his mind. After the list of three lieutenants and thirty chiefs and lieutenants was drafted and submitted, the chief and deputy captains of the team were

The appointment was promoted to soldiers who performed well on weekdays, and was quickly implemented.

After the structure and personnel are finalized, the second step is the division of responsibilities, and adjustments to various training subjects must begin. In view of the expanded responsibilities, other skills besides firefighting need to be improved. The prevention and response to various disasters will also be

Put it on the agenda. In the past, firefighting was the main responsibility, and firefighting skills and training became the main training subjects. But now it is different. All kinds of emergency and rescue skills need to be improved. For example, many soldiers in the army can't swim. This is unimaginable.

.In case of flood rescue, a group of landlubbers cannot protect themselves. How can they save others? In addition, Fang Zian has to let the soldiers practice such things as climbing over walls, climbing ropes, jumping high and far, riding horses, driving with bows and arrows, fighting with weapons and fists, etc.

It cannot be said that the soldiers are required to follow the training requirements of the special forces, but at least they must have basic skills to ensure that they can perform their minimum duties.

The new yamen service that goes deep into the streets and alleys has already been established because it has been launched before. But Fang Zian knows that it needs to increase its efforts. People now basically passively accept help, and few actively ask for help.

.What we need to do now is to let the people know that they can take the initiative to seek help from the Fire Army Yamen. The Fire Army Yamen will help them solve their problems and will not refuse anyone who comes.

The significance of this is that the fire department's reputation for rescue operations must be established. The reputation of the people is extremely important, although it may seem meaningless at times. However, at certain times, this is an extremely powerful force that will

Getting huge help from unexpected places. Of course the imperial court is happy to see people praising the imperial yamen. If someone is willing to do this, that is actually what the imperial court wants to see.

The better the reputation of the door, the more stable your position will be. This is a utilitarian idea.

The other reason is that Fang Zian sincerely wants to do this in his heart. Saving people in distress and serving the people are actually emotions rooted in Fang Zian's heart. In the world he came from, as a member of the people's children,

The reputation of the army among the people is extremely high. That is because the army is called the people's soldiers, and it will do anything for the people. Although the world is no longer that world, and the people are not those people, people are of the same mind and heart.

The truth is the same. Moreover, this kind of emotional reward will also make you stronger. When you know that you are loved by the people, everything you do will have a sense of mission and happiness, then

It is the motivation in everyone's heart that everyone yearns for. Fang Zian really felt this at the beginning. When the military vehicles drove through the desert plains and mountains, those unknown boys, girls and children stood solemnly saluting towards him and his comrades.

, when expressing respect, the most powerful pride and motivation in the heart can be generated. Although in this era, the relationship between military and civilians is difficult to replicate, Fang Zian believes that this simple original intention of serving the people

It will definitely make his soldiers feel proud and motivated as well, allowing them to be sublimated.

In short, there were so many things, complicated and trivial. Fang Zian had no experience in many things, and he felt he had no clue at first. But after a few days, one by one, one by one, things were solved.

Everything goes in the direction you want.

On August 28, after more than ten days of preparations, the Fire Army Office was officially opened. The opening of a new office was a big event, and people from all the government offices came to congratulate it. There was no need to mention Yang Cunzhong, Shi Hao and others.

, the two of them came to congratulate each other in person. Yang Cunzhong came as a superior official, and it was not a formal platform. But this was the first time that Shi Hao came to congratulate him in a public capacity, which was extremely unusual. This also meant that Shi Hao had decided

He disclosed his close relationship with Fang Zian. In fact, he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to, because Fang Zian wanted to become his son-in-law, so there was no way he could hide it.

Zhang Xiaoxiang, Qin Xiqing and others naturally came to congratulate him. In fact, they did not need to conceal their close relationship with Fang Zian, because in fact, all this could no longer be concealed.

In addition, people from major yamen sent red posts to express their congratulations, but they were mostly polite. Many of them were actually very sensible and understood that the relationship between Fang Zian and Qin Xiang was not the same.

Harmony. So this kind of congratulation is a symbolic behavior, just polite. Surprisingly, both the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council also sent red cards to congratulate. As the central department controlled by the Qin Party, they did so with a certain degree of congratulations.

The meaning of the weasel's New Year greetings to the rooster.

But no matter what, the Fire Army Office opened amidst the sound of firecrackers and the laughter of a group of people. When Fang Zian pulled off the red cloth on the plaque, revealing the four magnificent gilded characters of 'Fire Army Office'
