The highest affirmation of the power structure of the Ming Dynasty in a province was the Executive Office of the Political and Civil Affairs Department, which was in charge of the civil affairs of a province; then the Executive Office of the Examination and Observation Office of the Judicial Criminal Prison, and the other was the Chief Commander Office, which had an official and the Chief Commander Office. One of the chief officials was in charge of the official office, called the Chief Commander Office, and was referred to as the Chief Commander Office, with the position under the two departments.

This is the three local departments, the highest authority. Because the imperial court has many local affairs and the three departments are arguing with each other, it is the governor appointed by the central government to coordinate and manage them, so they can increase their efficiency. The governor of the Ming Dynasty was not a local official, but a representative of the residence of the capital, but the three local departments had the power to control the local departments.

For example, Shandong Governor Zhu Dadian, he could take charge of the other three and eat tightly.

As for Governor Lai, he was a little different. Denglai Town was set up as a military town from the beginning, and was responsible for garrisoning troops from here, preparing food and grass, and supporting outside the pass. He was also separated from Shandong, so it was impossible for the three departments and other systems to come out.

The biggest person in Denglai Town is of course this governor. This governor directly manages the 24th camp of the general of Dengzhou. Then he also has the power to appoint and remove the officials of the three eastern prefectures. Therefore, under Chen Yingyuan, the most powerful ones are naturally the general of Dengzhou and the prefect of the three prefectures.

All generals and deputy generals must have the position of Duke, Marquis, Bo, and Governor. During the Wanli period, generals were added in Lintao, Shanhai. By the middle and late Wanli period, there were many generals, which was unparalleled.

In the Ming Dynasty, the general was originally a rank-free committee, but in fact it depends on where he was in charge. It is not that he was sure of the rank and title of the general. This name is a bit like the commander of later generations.

However, this is just a superficial hierarchy. In the Ming Dynasty, civil servants and military officials were inferior, and only civil officials were of high status. Therefore, a new tradition has been formed in the past few decades, that is, the status of several prefects was above the generals of Dengzhou. To put it bluntly, the generals often need local support here, but locals do not need their support.

This has formed a rather scam tradition, that is, there is no county magistrate under the tent of the general, and there is a general under the tent of the county magistrate.

Now the prefect and the general under his corps joined forces to undermine him, which made him very angry.

Chen Yingyuan immediately ordered his eldest son to come over to call Zheng Zhibao. He swore that if the other party dared to come, he would definitely scold him for being so bloody.

Who knows the answer left and right: "General Zheng has returned to the countryside to preside over his daughter's wedding."

Hearing this, Chen Jingyuan became even more angry, that was, the general of the town had asked for leave, but he didn't even ask him for it, and he was hit in the face.

Originally, he thought that it was rumored that Liu Yuanqiao also came over to scold him, but he was thinking that the Liu and Zheng families were in-laws. Since the Zheng family married their daughter, the Liu family would not be idle either.

He was very angry about Zheng Zhibao asking for leave. He was not as angry as a general who asked for leave. Does this general have him in his eyes?

But the master told the governor: "Since Zheng Dianbing is not here, can you take the opportunity to win over his navy generals and Lu Yong?"

When Chen Yingyuan heard this, he was indeed like this. Since Zheng Zhibao was not around, my dignified general can't buy you a general's subordinate.

Chen Yingyuan asked, "Okay, who is in charge of the water camp under General Zheng Zhibao now?"

The master said, "The person under Zheng Zhibao is his confidant Zheng Lin. This person is very loyal and should not be bribed. However, the navy actually consists of ten main warships. Each warship has a steward. "Captain, as long as we invite these captains, his fleet will be overturned."

Chen Yingyuan said: "Good!"

The master said again: "As for his soldiers, the main ones are the 1,000 servants under Xiao Ning. Xiao Ning is his real name. He was called Liu Ning before, and was a fugitive from Liao Town. He was desperate to surrender to the Liu family, joined the servants, and became one of the servants, and took charge of a thousand elite servants for him. It is reported that Zheng Zhibao is preparing to let him serve as the Qianzheng of the Dengzhou Camp, and is considered a confidant. If the adults can bribe Xiao Ning, they can seize his military power."

Chen Yingyuan said, "Since this person is a confidant of the Liu family, how could he be bribed by me?"

The master said, "All these military generals are just forgiving their powers when they see profits. If they have milk, they are mothers. If the adults promise good positions and rights to them, they will naturally surrender to the adults."

This is what literati think of military generals.

Chen Yingyuan thought it was the same. What kind of loyalty and righteousness can be expressed in the mind of military generals? They basically have breasts, but they are mothers. As a magistrate, he offered a larger price, and he didn't believe he would not come to vote.

Chen Yingyuan was very angry at the time when Liu Yuanqiao and Zheng Zhibao joined forces to strike him together. He also decided to put him back to the other party. The best way to buy the other party’s important subordinates and seize his fleet and servants was the best way.

So he immediately ordered his car to go to Dengzhou Camp. Taking advantage of Zheng Zhibao's absence, it was a great opportunity to bribe their subordinates. When Xiao Yun led a thousand elite soldiers in that day, he left a deep impression on him. This was a very tall, tough, brave and good warlike elite soldiers. If there were a thousand elite soldiers in his hands, he could form more army based on this. These thousand elite soldiers looked like servants of the generals in the border town, and could stand alone.

However, when Governor Chen Yingyuan came to Dengzhou Camp in eight-carrying sedan chair, he was told: "Xiao Yunqianhu has led his elite soldiers to go out to train in the wild."

Chen Yingyuan was a little unbelievable. It was snowing heavily and it was so cold. He dared to go to the wild for training? So he directly ordered people to carry his sedan chair into the Dengzhou Camp command post and see where Xiao Yun hid.

However, after he entered, he found that it seemed to be true. The entire camp was empty. Except for some soldiers who swept the snow and cleaned up here, there was no one else. So the other party led more than a thousand soldiers out for field training. This should be true, which aroused Chen Yingyuan's interest.

It was snowing heavily in such a cold day, and he could go out for training in the field, which shows that the military discipline of this army is extremely strict and extremely powerful, just like the Qi family army back then. In this way, Chen Yingyuan had a must-have heart. He said to his left and right: "No matter what method you use, you must find Xiao Yun."

He was about to call the other party over and took action to win over him.

But he said to the left: "What if Xiao Yun is not polite and does not want to come?"

Chen Yingyuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said, "A thousand households dare not listen to my official words. You can just send him a trip and change to an obedient person."

There is no general in Dengzhou City now. If Zheng Zhibao is here, he will still be a bit taboo. After all, the other party is also a general, and he is in charge of the military power here, and the soldiers here are obedient to him. However, Zheng Zhibao is not here, which is a great opportunity for him to take action. He will teach the other party a lesson, that is, when the other party comes back, the situation has changed.

It’s not that it’s changing the world, but that it’s all back on track and that it’s all followed his orders, the governor.

Chen Yingyuan also sighed that it was such a god-given opportunity. Fortunately, the Zheng family and the Liu family got married at this time. The important figures of their family were busy and married for Liu Bu, the little bastard. It is estimated that their main energy was also devoted to it. He, the governor, would better take this opportunity to gather their troops and horses. When they returned after they finished their marriage, they found that their troops were all loyal to my governor.

Chen Yingyuan thought it was quite beautiful, but he sent his men to win over the captains under Zheng Zhibao, and these ten captains were stationed in the Navy Village in Dengzhou, responsible for the safety of the sea area in this area.

Now Zheng Zhibao and the others have made a guarantee to ensure the safety of the Bohai Sea area, and there will be no more Jiannu and pirates robbing and intercepting their grain transport ships. If these things happen, they will have no face.

However, it is not surprising that Zheng Zhibao dares to guarantee this way. The Zheng family is very awesome now. All ships heading to the east, whether you are a Dutch, Portuguese, or Arab, have to pay 3,000 taels of tax to their Zheng family in exchange for a flag. If the other party hangs the flag of their Zheng family, they will travel unimpeded in the waters of this area. If they don’t hang it or pay it, they will be sunk or captured by them.

Since the third master of the Zheng family made a guarantee here, any pirates along the way dared to rush to get hair and intercept the official army's ships, they were against the Zheng family. This was seeking death. Only Zheng Zhibao dared to make such a guarantee.

Zheng Zhibao's subordinates also conducted adaptive training here, preparing to start a new round of battle when the general came back. At this time, the governor sent someone to win over them and invite them to dinner. The other party's envoy said that as long as he met the governor, it would definitely be beneficial.

The envoy who won them was very proud, as if he was giving the other party a gift. He was not worried that the other party would not come, but he just let go after he put down the invitation. He thought that a captain was of no quality and level, the largest local governor, would invite you to dinner and summon him? How many lifetimes is this a blessing? Are you still not rushing to come with gifts?

Who knew that when the designated time was reached, the governor had arrived, and none of the ten captains were present, which made Chen Yingyuan's face turn pale. The governor invited several captains with no quality and level to dinner, but the other party didn't even come.
