In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhi Jinwu's role was far less than that of the Western Han Dynasty. He basically became a senior urban administrator in Luoyang City, with a prestigious official title but without the same prestigious authority.
In Liu Bei's new interpretation, Zhi Jinwu became the chief law enforcement officer of the Central Army, with an official rank of two thousand stones, and was a super-enhanced version of the Northern Army's Lieutenant Commander.
Liu Bei brought the original practice of the Military Justice Department and Military Judges deciding military punishments in the army to the new Central Army, centralized the military legal departments of each army, and established a Central Military Justice Department, with Zhi Jinwu as the highest commander of the Military Justice Department, comprehensively
Responsible for military law enforcement tasks.
Any punishment for mistakes in the army is decided by Zhi Jinwu as the highest executive officer. No matter how old an officer is when he makes a mistake, he must be tried by Zhi Jinwu and judged according to military law.
This brand-new position interpretation was recognized by the imperial court, making Gai Xun a very powerful official in Luoyang City.
As a result, the position of Zhijinwu burst out with a brilliance that had not been emitted for more than a hundred years.
Now that the military legal system has been successfully established, the staff system must also be established.
Liu Bei also brought the original staff system of the army into the construction of the Central Army, and set up a staff headquarters in addition to the establishment of the Central Han Army, officially putting the professionalization and standardization of the army on the agenda.
After a series of appointments were completed, Liu Bei personally led them as a general, and the construction of a new high-level military leadership system was completed.
The frame is set up, and the next step is to recruit soldiers and horses to fill it with flesh and blood.
In addition to recruiting the old troops from Liangzhou and Yizhou, Liu Bei also openly recruited troops in the Sanhe and Sanfu areas. He had cronies inside and strong troops outside. Liu Bei's momentum was extremely sharp from the first day the new emperor ascended the throne.
People dare not look directly.
In comparison, although Zhang Rang, Jian Shuo and Dong Zhong also took a series of actions, they always felt that they seemed petty compared with Liu Bei's actions.
Despite this, there are not many people who want to join them and gain power.
After all, the resources Liu Bei has here are numerous, and a considerable part of them are used to win over talents from all over the world, so the resources given to the insects in Luoyang City are not enough, and the requirements are relatively strict.
Some guys who are not good enough cannot get Liu Bei's resources, so they can only settle for the next best thing and find the other three.
The other three people also have their own resources, but in terms of specific methods, they completely inherited Liu Hong's method and clearly marked the price, which can be regarded as a lesson for the world of not forgetting the original intention.
Except for some core and important positions that need to be handed over to close associates, others can be sold for money and exchanged for wealth. No matter how meaningful the position seems, in their eyes, it is just money.
It has to be said that these three people can be regarded as an example of those who are close to Zhu, red, and those close to Mo, who are black. They have won the true biography of Liu Hong and can be called the inner disciples of Xiyuan True Tradition. They are running wildly on the road of selling their official positions and conferring titles.
Among them, Jian Shuo is relatively simple. He refers to the way of selling officials in Xiyuan in the past, clearly marking the price, fixed price, and no negotiation.
Zhang Rang and Shi Changshi were more playful. In addition to normal pricing, they also played the game of "whoever pays the highest price gets it." They emphasized that a price should be determined by the market and should not be thought of casually. In terms of sales, they were a thousand years ahead of the world.
Dong Zhong was similar. After hearing about Zhang Rang and Shi Changshi's drama of "the highest bidder gets the prize," he quickly learned from their advanced experience and made the sale of officials and titles as lively as an auction.
In order to obtain more benefits, they can be said to be the eight immortals crossing the sea to show their magical powers, and each village has its own clever tricks.
From the second day after Liu Xie ascended the throne, they began to sell their official positions and titles one after another, and they did so openly, which aroused great dissatisfaction among the officials in the city.
Liu Bei, the only one who did not trade openly, valued these resources very much and was very strict in selecting people, focusing on true talent and learning. This made it impossible for some guys who tried to fish in troubled waters.
They didn't want to spend money, and they couldn't show their true talents and knowledge. Seeing that the new order in Luoyang City had nothing to do with them, they were very worried.
However, compared with the scholars of the ancient literature school who have the connections and paths, the scholars of the modern literature school have no advantage.
Under the new situation, they found that although they wanted to seek those vacant positions, the power to control the vacant positions was not affected by them, but was in the hands of the four ministers who had been established before.
If you want to obtain these powers and positions, you must go through the four ministers. Without this channel, they will not be able to obtain key positions.
The three princes are not under control. There is only one Taichang Huang Wan in Jiuqing, who is considered a member of the modern literature school. He cannot have personnel power, let alone a general.
It was impossible for them to follow the eunuchs, and it was impossible for them to give up their power. After thinking about it, they found that they had only the last way left.
Dong Chong.
The hussar general who opened the government, Dong Chong.
They had no other choice. Although Dong Zhong was not in their eyes before, at this moment, Dong Zhong became their only choice.
So, headed by Huan Dian and Zhang Xi, officials of the Jinwen School began to seek ways to contact Dong Chong, even if they spent some money.
Liu Bei found out about this news through Zhang Rang.
However, he thought about it and did not stop this trend.
In addition to the arrangements made by the army and his cronies, Liu Bei also invested political resources in those who supported him in Luoyang City, which was regarded as some gratitude for their investment in him.
For example, Ma Rixi, Fu Qian and Cai Yong, who had been investing in him, had their positions promoted from Yilang and Shizhong to higher positions.
Fu Qian and Cai Yong were promoted to Taizhong Dafu, and Ma Rixi was promoted to Yushi Zhongcheng.
In addition, his newly opened Grand General's Mansion also recruited talented people. Among the talented people in Luoyang, he carefully selected some who were not so unattractive to bring in. It was considered worthy of the families who had invested in him before, and gave them
Initial feedback.
But compared to these, what he cares more about are the local scholars who have received his summons.
He needs to win over a group of people before chaos breaks out in Kanto and establish his own image to facilitate his rule over Kanto in the future.
It was early March in the sixth year of Zhongping when he issued the imperial edict, and now it is mid-April of the sixth year of Zhongping. After a coup, the situation in Luoyang and the world has changed drastically, but the imperial edict will not change.
.
Over the past month or so, there must have been quite a few people who have received his summons.
How will they react?
Will it come all at once?
Or do you want to avoid his summons and avoid getting involved in more dangerous things?
Liu Bei looked forward to their arrival.
Just as Liu Bei thought, more than a month had passed, and most of the first batch of talents he wanted to recruit had already received the recruitment orders issued by him as a hussar general.
The first person to arrive in Luoyang was also the first person to receive the order. His name was Mao Jie.
But Mao Jie was a bit unlucky.
Mao Jie received Liu Bei's summons in mid-to-late March.
At that time, Mao Jie was able to serve as a county official in Pingqiu County because of his family background. He had a little reputation. He was very surprised and surprised that he could be summoned by the world-famous hussar general Liu Bei. Then he got
You know, the person who recommended him was Zhang Miao.
So he went to visit and thank Zhang Miao, but Zhang Miao said that it was nothing. He just accidentally heard that Mao Jie had a reputation for integrity, and felt that an upright person must meet Liu Bei's needs, so he recommended him to Liu Bei.
Recommendation is recommendation. How far it can be achieved depends on Mao Jie's own ability.
Mao Jie recognized this very much and thanked Zhang Miao again.
"So, you have decided to go to Luoyang to answer the call?"
Zhang Miao looked at Mao Jie with a playful smile: "Going to Luoyang now seems not a good choice. Do you know what is happening in Luoyang now?"
Mao Jie thought for a while and nodded.
"Luoyang is a bit chaotic. The fact that Liu Qiaoqi was able to open a mansion should be a clear proof that Luoyang is in chaos. It will not be very safe to go to Luoyang now."
"Yes, Luoyang is very chaotic. I almost got involved before."
Zhang Miao said with emotion: "If I hadn't reacted quickly and cleared up the relationship in time, I might not have been able to keep safe when chaos broke out in Luoyang. But it's okay now. I just need to wait and see what happens. Liu Qiaoqi is on the cusp of the storm. At this time
If you join him now, you will be at the forefront of the storm.
It is better to wait until the situation is more stable and Luoyang has settled down before you go to Luoyang. In that case, it will be much safer and there will be more room for turning around. Whether to go or not is just a matter of thought, and Liu Qiaoqi has no choice.
