The examination areas for the middle list are in Sichuan, Anhui, Hunan, Hubei, Guizhou, Yunnan, Guangxi, Guangnan. Tibet and Pingnan Military and Civilian Prefecture (Myanmar), if there are scholars who have taken the imperial examination, they will also be classified as the middle list.6
This examination area takes the exam in Baling. After the news was announced, Anwei officials expressed strong opposition.
Anwei recovered earlier, and there are also important ministers!
Cabinet ministers Zhang Bingwen and Wu Yingji were both from Anhui. Their words at the imperial meeting did not work, so they hinted to officials from Anwei to go to the eunuch and request that Anhui be changed to the Nanbang examination area.
This behavior made Zhao Han very unhappy. He did not blame anyone, and in a rage, he changed the location of the examination to Chengdu.,11
Anwei officials were immediately dumbfounded.{1
The division of examination areas has political significance. Jiangxi belongs to the southern list, both for historical reasons and practical considerations. First, Jiangxi now has the most officials, so scholars from Jiangsu and Zhejiang need to balance the officialdom; second, Jiangxi and Zhejiang are full of rich people, and Jiangxi officials need to suppress them.
Although Jiangxi and Jiangdong are close to each other, they have always loved and killed each other in the officialdom. They have an extremely strong relationship of checks and balances. 1_
The power of Nantang is so powerful that Anhui must be included in the middle list, otherwise it will be integrated into one. Anwei, Sichuan, Hunan, and Hubei, the four provinces combined, can barely compete with the Nantang examination area.
Zhang Bingwen and Wu Yingji colluded with Anhui officials to cause trouble. Those officials in Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi had a supportive attitude. This meant that most important ministers joined forces to resist Zhao Han's zoning policy, and they must be beaten hard with sticks! 1
Anwei students from many prefectures and counties can reach Nanjing by boat in one or two days... Now they are relieved, they have to go to Chengdu to take the exam. 8 It's just a change of exam location, but the ministers are so scared that they are silent, and they all know that the emperor
I was really angry this time. No one dared to discuss the matter in Examination Area 6.
The next step is to divide the military regions.3
The Military Governor's Office of the Chinese Army is located in Nanjing and has jurisdiction over Jinling Prefecture, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Anhui, Hunan, Hubei, and Guangdong. 1_The Former Military Governor's Office is located in Kunming and has jurisdiction over Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Guangxi, and Guangdong.
South, Kangzang, Pingnan Military and Civilian Prefecture (Myanmar).
The Right Army Governor's Office is located in Xi'an and governs Shaanxi, Gansu (including Ningxia), and Qinghai. (In the future, it will govern the Western Regions, but the organization will not move westward. Only Xi'an can quickly mobilize grain and grass. Neither Gansu nor Xinjiang can support the logistics of a large army.
) 13
The Zuojun Dudufu is located in Shenyang and has jurisdiction over Liaoning, Xuantu (Jilin), and the Andong Duhufu (Heilongjiang and Siberia). The Houjun Dudufu is located in Beijing and has jurisdiction over Beiping Prefecture, Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan.
Mongolian grassland. 3
The Naval Governor's Mansion is located in Guangzhou.2
The Central Army and the Rear Army are obviously the highest ranking, especially the Rear Army Governor's Office, which is responsible for the deployment of troops in the Mongolian region. If it involves Hetao and Horqin Grassland, the Left Army and the Right Army's Governor's Office must cooperate, which means that the entire north must listen to the rear army.
The order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army.
Setting up the rear military governor's office in Beijing is to improve Beijing's military status and make Beijing the military center of the entire north.,17
The left governor of the rear army must be a general who is familiar with the war in the north. Needless to say, the separation of military and political affairs is to prevent the situation of vassal towns. Without money and food, it is impossible to separate the regime. 3
Moreover, the patrols in each province, that is, the armed police system, were partially separated from the governor's office and handed over to the provincial commanders. They were allowed to check and balance with the five-army governor's office. Only after receiving central military orders, the patrols could
Will cooperate with the Dudu Mansion in fighting...
If there is a rebellion in the Mongolian grassland, the Anbei Protectorate and the Raole Protectorate will first resolve it themselves. If the Mongolian rebels cross the Great Wall in large numbers, the Zuo Commandery of the rear army has the right to temporarily mobilize the inspection troops.
Only when there is a real big disturbance, the central government will issue a military order, and the commander-in-chief of the rear army, Zuo, will take over the entire northern military system and mobilize the efforts of several northern provinces to suppress the rebellion. This situation is a critical state, and there may only be two or three in a hundred years.
return.
The name of the Governor's Mansion in Nanjing remains unchanged, but the governors at this time,
From now on, the name will be changed to General, and the prefix "General XX" will be added to distinguish it. Qi 4
The Central Governor's Office has seven departments: military administration, missionary education, staff, military law, training, logistics, and equipment. There is also an imperial military meeting, which is presided over by the emperor and attended by the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office. 3
The powers of the Ministry of War have been reduced, but it still controls part of the power of military expenditures, retains control over the provincial command departments (in charge of the armed police forces), and retains the power to appoint and remove senior military attachés (which must be approved by the Imperial Military Council).
Lu Xiangsheng, Minister of War, was speechless for a long time after reading the military reform plan.
Lu Xiangsheng knew very well that with the increase in the number of military cadets in each army, the emperor was no longer afraid of suppressing those military generals. This system has always been implemented, and civilian officials should not want to suppress military generals at will, even if all the founding ministers died.
Moreover, military generals are also allowed to give up their command rights and join the Ministry of War as officials. If things go on like this, one day, the Ministry of War may be directly merged with the Governor's Office, leaving only military region agencies like the Sixth Army Governor's Office. Radio would have to be invented.
The Ministry of War in the Ming Dynasty seized power because of the Tumubao Incident.
Not only did the noble generals suffer heavy losses, but the northern troops also suffered heavy casualties. In order to defend Beijing, Yu Qian naturally and must seize power, otherwise he would not be able to train and command the army. But how could civilian officials be willing to give up the power they had obtained?
Even if Yu Qian wants to restore the status quo, other civil servants will object.
What's more, Yu Qian not only failed to recover, but also continued to let the Ministry of War seize more power after saving Beijing. He may have good intentions, because the generals were terrible at the time, but his influence lasted until the fall of the Ming Dynasty.i 6
The Ministry of War's seizure of the power of the Dudu Mansion was not actually the main reason for the Ming Dynasty's military conflict.
The real main reason was the military household guard system. Civil servants were forced to start reforms. In the middle of Jiajing, Longqing, and early Wanli years, they achieved results, and for a time they were like stars in the clouds. But they encountered financial difficulties, and the military recruitment system collapsed.
, it turned into a completely flat servant battle.
It comes down to finances! 1
As for the Datong Imperial Court, the military academy continued to send out graduates. Even if there were a few major defeats, as long as the military academy continued to operate normally, officers would continue to be trained.
These military school students will form a community of interests. Although the military school is also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, only the principal is an official of the Ministry of War. The other teachers are all from the military. The self-identification of the military school students must be like a group of military generals.
Zhao Han even wanted to hold a martial arts examination. Every year, the best military school graduates would come to Nanjing and be tested by the emperor to be recognized as martial arts scholars. In this way, military generals would also be disciples of the emperor. 8
In addition, Beijing's status has been established as the cultural center of the north and the military center of the north.
Beiping Prefecture finally looks like a municipality directly under the Central Government. It was too shabby before. After years of recovery, the Prefecture governs ten counties with a total population of less than 2 million. It cannot be compared with another municipality (Jinling Prefecture).…
After its status is confirmed, Beijing will definitely be able to develop rapidly.
Xi'an, Shenyang and Kunming, where the three governor's offices are located, will also form a siphon effect in the northwest, northeast and southwest. Qi 2
If chaos often breaks out in Kangzang, Chengdu will establish a sub-level military region. However, given the ghostly climate of the Little Ice Age, it is difficult for Kangzang to cause chaos. It is just a small chaos. Tu Bo Neng and Tang Dynasty Hard Steel have encountered Warm period.17
At this moment, the northern army is conquering Mobei. When the war is over, military reforms will be fully implemented.
…
Zhao Hancai didn't care what the civilian officials thought. He had been planning this military reform for several years.
I usually used chats to solicit the opinions of the generals who returned to Beijing, and based on the situation of the Ministry of War, the Governor's Office and the local troops, I drafted an outline myself, and asked the generals and civilians of the Governor's Office to add details, and finally revised it several times myself.
The civil servants were not alarmed throughout the whole process, and they only occasionally made insinuations and asked Lu Xiangsheng and others to make some suggestions.
It was another holiday, and Zhao Han rarely relaxed. He took a walk alone, and then went to play with Zhu Nanni. { 8 While walking, a boy holding a dog bumped into him. 2
"Father!" The young man stopped quickly, but it was Zhao Kuangji, the fifth prince born to Fei Rumei.i 3 "Woof woof woof!"
The Shar-Pei barked at the emperor.
Zhao Han stared fiercely, and the Shar Pei suddenly lay down, tilted its head and stuck out its tongue.
Zhao Han asked: "Are you trying to beat a dog, or are you going to some dog fighting ring?"
Zhao Kuangtan replied: "When I return to the capital, my father, my son, plans to leave the palace for a visit."
"No gambling!" Zhao Han reminded.
"I will never gamble," Zhao Kuangji said quickly, angrily.
This prince has excellent academic performance and good conduct, but he is also very playful.
Two years ago, I went out to the city for an autumn hunt and met a mangy dog on the way. It was probably just one month old and was dying of hunger. Zhao Kuangji felt pitiful and had to take it back to the palace to raise it. Later, he asked his classmates to appreciate his dog. One classmate said ,? This kind of dog is the best fighting dog, and there is a secret dog fighting ring outside the city.
Zhao Kuangji was curious and ran to check, and sure enough there were many mangy dogs there. After a dog fight, he was bitten and bruised all over his body. Zhao Kuangji felt it was exciting, but he couldn't bear the dogs getting hurt.
Moreover, although Zhao Kuangji often took his dog to the dog fighting ring, he never got out of the dog fight. He was afraid that his dog would be injured. The accompanying guards reported the situation. Zhao Han couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this. This prince, he I have no hope anymore.
Excellent at studying, but also playful.
Academically, he is not aggressive at all. He ranked in the middle in elementary school, middle in middle school, and probably will be in the middle when he goes to university. Anyway, don't do too badly in the exam and be embarrassed. This is enough. I have never thought about being among the best. 7
Seeking excitement, but also kind-hearted.
This guy couldn't bear to see the poor suffer, or even see the dogs bleeding. But he couldn't help but watch the dog fighting. After watching a few games, he couldn't bear to watch it. He quietly left in the middle, and then ran to watch it again next time. i7
He has a completely contradictory personality. This kind of person is often indecisive and is not the material to do great things. If he were to be the emperor, he would probably be a match for Song Huizong.) 9 Of course, Zhao Kuangji has a smart mind and a wide range of hobbies, so he might be able to Show off in a certain field.
Recently, I have also become obsessed with Cuju, and I often pass the dog and play ball at the same time.
I have some knowledge of classics, history, poetry, calligraphy, painting, music, astronomy, geography, mathematics, and physics, but when my level reaches a certain level, I no longer study hard and find other fun.10
No matter how much education he gives, he refuses to listen, and it's like he has ADHD, making him feel uncomfortable just sitting there for a long time.
Zhao Han won't be surprised if one day he says he wants to travel around the world.
