"We have made an agreement with each of the ministries, and after the war, let them return, we cannot keep the agreement. This is just the first time to call, and of course there will be a second, third, and even more! We cannot do this because of this
The breach of trust makes the leaders of various tribes dissatisfied. More importantly, we cannot let these people use these excuses to incite the people of various tribes." Situ Liang said in a deep voice.
Speaking of the leaders of various tribes, Zhao Xun remembered his promise to the king of Liaodong Kingdom to be granted a title. Originally, Zhao Xun wanted to ask the court for a decree to enfeoff the kingdom of Liaodong Kingdom and his own title.
General Wei Zhonglang. But now he has been stripped of all his posts by the court and has become a rebel who was called by Minghuang. Naturally, this matter of granting the title cannot be successful.
Zhao Xun said: "Let the more than 10,000 surviving soldiers join their respective units, and all rewards that should be distributed will be distributed. In addition, tell them that if they are willing to continue to serve our Xiaoguo Army, let them leave the tribe and join the Eight Banners of the Marine.
”
After March battle, these soldiers also knew the military rules of the Xiaoguo Army and the treatment of the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army. Many people have asked the officers of the Xiaoguo Army whether they could stay in the Xiaoguo Army.
.These Marine soldiers came from three units. Except for the soldiers of Liaodong Kingdom, which are the state's permanent troops, the rest were for the people in peacetime and soldiers in wartime, and they did not live well. Now the Xiaoguo Army is treated so well that they can have
The idea of staying in Xiaoguojun.
In the regular army of his Xiaoguo Army, a small number of foreigners can be absorbed, but they will never inhale in large quantities. These surviving soldiers are indeed good soldiers, and it is inappropriate to leave them to various divisions. Li Huaiyuan once advised Zhao Xun,
Let them persuade these soldiers to join the Eight Banners of the Marine.
The Eight Banners of the Marine and the Eight Banners of the Khitan are all foreign troops, but they are controlled by Zhao Xun. In addition to abiding by the military rules set by the Xiaoguo Army, they are basically out of touch with the original tribe. What satisfied Zhao Xun the most
Yes, these soldiers are basically stationed at the borders of each division or the borders of each division. The supplies they consume are provided by the Xiaoguo Army, but the daily life needs are provided by each division. In this way, they use other people's food to support their own soldiers. Why
Are you happy?
"Okay, Jizhou has been taken, but it doesn't mean it's okay. Jizhou is bounded by Qingzhou in the east, Bingzhou in the west, and Yongzhou in the south. Except for Qingzhou, they are all enemies of our army. You must not
The general idea. The implementation of new policies in various prefectures and counties will inevitably make many people dissatisfied. But it concerns the people of the world. They must be done, and no one can resist it."
"We must not only strictly prevent foreign enemies from invading, but also prevent internal and external collusion. You have never forgotten the affairs of the southern prefectures in Youzhou in the past. If you find that anyone has bad intentions, you will take them down."
"Li Huaiyuan Military Affairs Commissioner, you stay in southern Jizhou and are responsible for military affairs in Jizhou. The remaining troops in Jizhou are the second and tenth governments, and you have the right to handle wars randomly." Zhao Xun said in a deep voice.
"I'm going to receive the order!"
…………
Zhao Xun returned to Youzhou City, and the territory of Xiaoguo Army also began to recover and develop. Due to the absorption of Xiaoguo Army, many refugees from other places flocked in, and Xiaoguo Army accepted them one by one.
As a large number of refugees entered the country, the official roads and city walls of various prefectures and counties began to be built. More people have reclaimed wasteland, because the reclaimed wasteland is privately owned and is not counted within the quota distributed by the government. Of course,
The Xiaoguo Army also made a fixed quota for the number of reclamation, and a household must not exceed 100 acres.
In addition to the construction of various prefectures and counties, a large number of refugees were slowly moved to the five prefectures of Beiding. If a large-scale population is relocated, it will naturally be a problem for yourself. But what if there are several or dozens of them at a time?
The Xiaoguo Army has a new task for the merchants. When you go north to the caravan, you need to bring several people to the north to move. According to the size of the caravan, you can choose freely, whether it is one or ten households, as long as you have one, you will be able to take it.
Yes. This is something to be assessed. When you arrive in Youzhou, there will naturally be officials from the Taxation Department and the Household Registration Department to assess it.
Although Yugong moved mountains not many times at a time, but ten times a hundred times? There are not many caravans, but ten times a hundred times? No one dares to underestimate the accumulated strength. For caravans,
That is, it’s just a dozen or dozens of people, which is nothing. After the unified business tax, merchants earn a lot. If you do this, you can hear others’ gratitude every day, which is better than being extorted by officials for no reason.
At this stage, in terms of terrain, Jizhou is indeed better than Youzhou. Jizhou is located in the Central Plains, not like Youzhou, with cold temperatures. In addition, Jizhou is well-connected and has a dense population. In addition, Youzhou is located on the border of the Hu people in the north, so it is
In the past years of war, the people naturally did not want to settle here. The climate of Jizhou is much better than that of Youzhou. It is located on a plain and has a lot of fertile land. If it is well managed, Jizhou will surely surpass Youzhou.
Therefore, all the Jizhou and Jizhou have started to manage the prefectures and counties, divide the fields and unify commercial taxes, which are policies that the Xiaoguo Army has never changed. In addition, water conservancy projects in various places have also begun to be gradually built.
Various tools such as turning buckets are also promoted in various places.
After the war, the focus is on governance and restoration and development. However, Zhao Xun couldn't help but frown from the situation of the rewards from the Shadow Department, the Hawkeye Department and the Supervision Department. Because of the lack of civil servants under the Xiaoguo Army, many former courts appointed them
The officials and some low-level officials were directly upgraded. But these officials had many problems and had many abilities. I won’t talk about whether they have corruption for the time being, but the speed of corruption was really beyond Zhao Xun’s expectations.
Zhao Xun dared not to ask everyone to be a saint, but he could not only seek personal gain, but the overall situation. Many businessmen and wealthy households bribed these newly appointed officials. Under the attack of various sugar-coated shells, they lost themselves.
I think so, in the past, people became the best in the past overnight, how could they not forget it?
Zhao Xun was very annoyed that the salaries of the Xiaoguo Army officials were already quite expensive, but these people seemed to be greedy.
In ancient times, the political groups that could have an impact on the country or a force were: literati class, eunuchs, concubines, relatives, royal families, and military officials. Now Zhao Xun accepted it but there were no eunuchs, and his women and relatives were strictly controlled by him.
Next, you can only have one official. In other words, the relatives of a clan either become civil servants or military officers, but even so, they cannot rank above two or more. As for the royal family, they only have a few sworn brothers, and even more so
Be strict with yourself.
In the vast history, from the perspective of groups, the majority of the role played by the literati and official groups in history are positive, while the majority of the role played by eunuchs, concubines, relatives, royal families, and military officials are negative.
The reason is that the scholar-official class is an elite selected from the bottom through legitimate procedures. Both quality and integrity are still relatively strong. Eunuchs, concubines, relatives, and royal family all rely on nepotism to enter the historical stage.
Although there are excellent talents among them, overall, they have low quality, corrupt morality, and no integrity. At the same time, they rely on the support of the emperor, so they often do evil and do everything they have. Especially the eunuchs, their physiological incompleteness, lead to psychological darkness.
Therefore, eunuchs' autocracy is often the darkest era. However, military officials are prone to a situation where they are too big to lose their power because they are in control of the army, resulting in separatist rule in the vassal states.
But now, other problems have not yet arisen, and this so-called scholar-official class has problems.
The one who can bring the greatest influence to me now is these officials, which is the so-called scholar-official class. I originally thought that these scholars could understand the truth and understand the importance of the matter. It seems that I underestimated the morality of some people.
"All the directors of each department are the leaders of each department. What are the tourists' opinions on the situation mentioned by the Supervision Department?" Zhao Xun gathered the heads of each department and asked the supervisor of the Supervision Department to explain the recent situation in detail.
"Report to my lord, this is all my negligence in the Government Affairs Department. My subordinates are willing to accept the crime!" Government Affairs Commander Lu Ziliang and Yang Wangzhen said in unison.
Zhao Xun frowned and said, "Sincere or not, let's not talk about it. After all, the major issues in the near future are all about military affairs. What do you think should we deal with now?"
"Severe punishment must be severely punished! In this case, it can only be severely punished. Otherwise, my Xiaoguo Army will sooner or later let them be corrupted." Gao Tu, the supervisor, said in a deep voice.
Yu Jing, the director of the former Academic Affairs Office, frowned and said, "In fact, we can't control all these officials. It's just that our Xiaoguo Army lacks officials, which makes them suddenly ascend to a high position and take power, and forget about it for a while."
Xu Yiling, the counselor, also nodded and said, "Secretary Yu's words are reasonable, and his subordinates also believe that this is also one of the key factors. But no matter what the reason is, if you make a mistake, you must be punished. You cannot be too large for external factors.
Or it is disturbed by external factors.”
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "Investigate, strictly investigate! All officials from all departments will be strictly investigated. At the same time, the Supervision Department accepts reports from the people and asks the people from all over the country to cooperate with the investigation. In addition, from today, the Supervision Department will accept anonymous reports from the people. Allows you to
People from all over the country do not need to sign their true names for anonymous reports of local officials."
"In addition, the assessment of officials of the Supervision Department will be based on the number of criminal officials investigated and the level of positions. For those officials who are in the Supervision Department but have no achievements for a year, they will never be used!
, it should be like the Supervision Department. What I need is the selfless Supervision Department, not the Supervision Department that only has a name and does not do practical things. Director Gao and Director Su, do you understand?"
Gao Tu, Su Yun said in unison: "I understand!"
"Just understand. I don't want the people in the Supervision Department to hook up with other people in the department. Once you have the Supervision Department, you will never talk about it except for the problems." Zhao Xun said coldly.
Gao Tu and Su Yun both saw sweat on their foreheads. They had never noticed that Zhao Xun was putting such great pressure on them at this moment. The problem Zhao Xun mentioned naturally refers to some officials of the Supervision Department who colluded with those investigated.
The object of the matter, reveals information to him or even exempts punishment.
"This is an official who has problems within your Supervision Department. Fifteen of them are dealt with according to the law. The rest will be removed from their posts and will never be used." Zhao Xun handed a list at hand to Gao Tu and said coldly.
Gao Tu took the list handed over by Zhao Xun, looked at it but didn't look at it, and put it in his arms. He said in a deep voice: "I understand!"
"Just understand, the officials of the Supervision Department have the support of the governor to support you, so don't be afraid of anything. In addition, the Hawkeye Department and the Shadow Department will be your backing. But remember that the inspector can, but
To convict officials, there must be evidence and not be reckless." Zhao Xun explained again.
"In addition, the position of censor will be established in each prefecture to inspect the prefectures and counties. After inspecting the situation in various places, you can report to the governor. You can report the livelihood situation in various places, or the performance of local governments, or officials.
daily behaviors.” Zhao Xun continued.
No matter what you do, let the officials hang a few knives on their heads. Let them all know that their every move is under the gaze of others. If you want to be greedy and favoritism, you must also consider whether you can afford it.
