Chapter 500: Commander's Duties
When Yuan Chang sent troops to Youzhou, the Cui family of Anping County lent Yuan Chang 5,000 private soldiers, and also sponsored a lot of money, food, weapons and armor, the reason for this was naturally that the Cui family of Anping County was optimistic about Yuan Chang. Of course, the family has never put their eggs in one basket, under Yuan Shao, under Cao Cao, all the forces have the children of the Cui family in Anping County. It's just that the foundation of the Cui family in Anping County is in Jizhou, and after being optimistic about Yuan Chang, they put heavy bets on Yuan Chang. Later, Yuan Chang and Yuan Shao captured Youzhou, Yuan Chang led Youzhou Mu and took root in Youzhou, and not everyone in the Cui family in Anping County was willing to follow Yuan Chang and relocate the entire family to Youzhou, a place adjacent to foreign races. Therefore, the Cui family of Anping County first let Cui Tong serve under Yuan Chang, and then the people in the family discussed whether to follow Yuan Chang to Youzhou or continue to stay in Jizhou.
Who knows, the relocation of the Cui family in Anping County, Jizhou has not yet been discussed, and Yuan Chang proposed land reform here, giving Cui Tong a difficult choice.
As the saying goes: There are only thousand-year-old families, not thousand-year-old dynasties, and this sentence seems to be well proven. Throughout the emergence of the noble and lowly classes, even starting with the Xia Dynasty, the Shang, Zhou, Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons, the Warring States Seven Heroes, the Qin and Han Dynasties, none of these dynasties or countries has been able to survive for more than a thousand years, and they have all disappeared in the long river of history. In the case of the Zhou Dynasty, it only existed for nearly 800 years, and did not break the fate of the millennium. Then, perhaps many people will have doubts, the thousand-year-old family does not seem to make sense, throughout history, those families do not seem to have existed for more than a thousand years.
If you don't dig deeper, you naturally feel that these families don't seem to have existed for more than a thousand years. However, if you dig deeper, you can find that these families have really existed for thousands of years.
First of all, the Qufu Confucius family can be ruled out first. The Confucian family passed on by Confucius can be counted as a family, and it cannot be counted if it is not a family. Regardless of the Confucian family, take Yingchuan Xun as an example. The earliest can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period, when there was a country called Xun State, which was destroyed by the Jin State. Duke Wu of Jin gave Xun Di to his doctor Yuan Shi Di, and Yuan Shi Di was renamed Xun Di. Xun Huang was born and died, and Xun Lin's father was born, and Xun Lin's father was not the Zhongxing clan; After that, it was not surnamed Cheng, and after the death of Ao gave birth to a young son, Xun Shou, and after Xun Shou, it was not Zhi and so on. The Zhongxing clan derived from Xun Lin's father, after the Jin State lost power, was changed to Xun's, and then there was Xunzi. After Xunzi, there are Xun's eight dragons, when Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, because of Emperor Xuan's name, Xun Xun has the same sound, Xun surname only has the surname Sun, and even their ancestor Xun Qing was also named Sun Qing. Therefore, because the name was changed halfway, people mistakenly thought that the Xun family made a fortune in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Xun family had already developed. When it came to the Eastern Han Dynasty, it only reached its peak.
And the Qinghe Cui clan also existed in the Spring and Autumn Period, when he was one of the ministers of Qi. When he arrived in the Western Han Dynasty, he moved to Qinghe County, and settled in Qinghe until Wu Zetian slaughtered the Shandong Wang clan, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Wu Zetian period, a thousand years have already passed; The Qin Dynasty is only a few hundred years old. However, the Boling Cui clan was not slaughtered during Wu Zetian's time, and the children of the Boling Cui clan also participated in the "Shenlong Coup" that overthrew Wu Zetian's regime until after the Song Dynasty. The Bolingcui clan gradually weakened and disappeared into the long river of history.
There is also a Longxi Li clan, needless to say, since the Spring and Autumn Period Laozi Li Er began to develop, and was also slaughtered by Wu Zetian.
As for the above-mentioned families, they have all gone through thousands of years. It is longer than the time when the previous dynasties existed. Obviously, the millennium family does not put their eggs in one basket, which is the foundation of their survival and continuation. The land system practiced by Yuan Chang today is obviously destroying the foundation of the continuation of these families. The reason why the family has been able to survive for so long is that they have been constantly annexing land, gaining great wealth, and distributing their children to various factions during wars, and if one of them wins, then the family can survive. If there is no land, how can these families support their many family children, how can they continue for a thousand years? Do they have to trade with those merchants to support their families? This is obviously impossible, even if the merchants make more money, what can they do?
Just like that Fan Li, it is recorded that he was the richest man in the world at that time, what was the result? Where did his descendants go? And Mi Zhu, the richest man in Xuzhou, as a result, Shu Han was destroyed by the Sima family, where is the Mi family?
Therefore, Cui Tong is naturally difficult to make a decision at this moment.
After pondering for a moment, Cui Tong bowed and said respectfully: "Yuan Zhoumu, this matter cannot replace the family to make any promises to Yuan Zhoumu. Therefore, when he returned to Boling, he informed the head of the family and the elders of the clan about the matter before he could decide whether to agree with Yuan Zhoumu's policy. Therefore, please forgive Yuan Zhoumu. ”
"What Cui Cheng said is very reasonable, and the Governor of Benzhou will allow you to return to Boling and ask before answering. Yuan Chang nodded in agreement.
Cui Tong's official position in Youzhou is to discuss Cao, and the so-called Yicao is qualified to participate in the discussion of the military and political conference and make suggestions. Of course, this position does not have any real power, that is, it is just a matter of saying a few words at the meeting and expressing opinions. There is a priest under the command of the state who is engaged in sacrificial wine, and is the head of the five engagements in a state. The five engagements are respectively in charge of the book, in charge of money, grain, books, and books, in the merit of the Cao, in charge of the selection and evaluation of officials, in the military affairs, and in the field of classics, in charge of the teaching of a state, which is equivalent to the director of the provincial education department in later generations. These four engagements all have real power, but only one Cao engaged in has no real power, so Yuan Chang threw this position to Cui Tong.
It's not that Yuan Chang looks down on Cui Tong, but because Yuan Chang, as a traverser, really understands the urine nature of these people from big families.
In the hearts of the children of these big families, they first value the interests of the family, and then the interests of the country. If there is a conflict between the interests of the state and the interests of the family, they will choose to act against the state at the first time. Therefore, Yuan Chang had no intention of reusing the officials recommended by these family members at all. Of course, if these great families could approve of the new land system, that would be a different matter. Yuan Chang agreed this time that Cui Tong would go back to discuss with the people of the Boling Cui family, that is, to give them a chance, if they were willing to follow, Yuan Chang would naturally be indispensable for them to be rich; if they were unwilling, then Yuan Chang could only say sorry, and everyone would go their own way in the future.
"Very well, since you have all agreed to reform and change the law. Then, tomorrow the officials of the counties will be ordered to come to Jixian County. The new policy system will be communicated and implemented from now on. ”
Yuan Chang waved his hand and directly finalized the final decision.
Since then, Cui Tong has also understood a problem. Regardless of whether they Boling Cui Clan will support Yuan Chang or not, Yuan Chang is already planning to do so, if the Boling Cui Clan does not agree with Yuan Chang's policy, then the cooperation between the Boling Cui Clan and Yuan Chang can be regarded as coming to an end. Sigh softly in my heart. Cui Tong didn't say much. Cui Tong is only a child of the Boling Cui clan, and he has no right to make such a decision. As a well-read and educated scholar, how could Cui Tong not understand the benefits of these policies proposed by Yuan Chang to the people, but these benefits were based on depriving the family of benefits.
After talking about land reform and tax reform, Yuan Chang began to work on the issue of military reform.
Yuan Chang looked at the military generals under his command, and directly began to distribute: "In addition to land reform and tax reform, the military system must also be reformed. First of all. Youzhou will set up the Youzhou Military Region, and the military region will have a commander.
In fact, Yuan Chang asked this, just going through the motions, and everyone present knew who the candidate for commander was, obviously, except for Zhao Yun. No one fits anymore.
First of all, Zhao Yun was one of the generals who had followed Yuan Chang the longest. In addition, there are Dian Wei and Han Sui, and others Yu Ban and Tai Shici. Yan Rou, Gongsun Xu and others all joined Yuan Chang's forces later. And Dian Wei's military talent is not bad, not to mention his military talent, but his military talent is not bad, and it is not a little better than Dian Wei, but his military strength is much worse than Zhao Yun. From these two aspects, Zhao Yun is undoubtedly the best candidate.
"My lord. The subordinates thought that General Zilong was the most suitable candidate. ”
"Subordinates think so!"
Yuan Chang smiled slightly and said, "Zilong, since you all recognize you as this commander, then, from now on, you will be the commander of the Youzhou Military Region." From today onwards, everyone will call Zilong Commander Zhao in the future, haha!"
"The last general has seen Commander Zhao!"
"I've seen Commander Zhao!"
Although this title is a new title proposed by Yuan Changcai, it seems to be quite catchy and has a different feeling. Zhao Yun came out of the ranks, hugged his fists and swept around everyone, showing the general's calmness and bearing.
"The commander has been decided, then, the next question is the commissar. The political commissar is equal in rank to the commander, but in the event of war, the political commissar does not interfere with the commander's military command and other issues, and is mainly responsible for the pacification of the soldiers' military morale and political and ideological guidance. As for the duties of the political commissar, it is estimated that there is no suitable candidate in the army, so the governor of the state will personally assume it. After there is a suitable candidate, it will be cultivated and arranged. ”
The importance of the political commissar is naturally self-evident, I think that in the years of the Anti-Japanese War, the political commissar yelled "XX party members, follow me", so the political commissar took the lead and moved forward bravely, it was they who set an example and succeeded in defeating the powerful enemy and liberating the whole of China. It can be said that the political commissar system is an important guarantee for the victory of the people's army under the leadership of the party. Moreover, the ideological education of the political commissar is also extremely important, so that the soldiers can maintain their loyalty to the country and greatly avoid the occurrence of rebellion. Since the liberation, in his previous life, Yuan Chang had not heard of any army mutiny, and it was clear that the political commissar played a great role.
No one has ever heard of the new military system, and naturally they have no understanding of the post of political commissar. Since Yuan often said that there was a need, then they naturally agreed.
"The commander and political commissar have been decided, so the next thing is the candidate for the deputy commander, who can you appoint?"
The deputy commander, as you know from this name, is one level younger than the commander and is the second eldest in the Youzhou Military Region. Naturally, the generals present all wanted to be in the position, after all, a soldier who did not want to be a general was not a good soldier. Even Dian Wei is eager to try. The commander has already let Zhao Yun take it, he can't be worse than Zhao Yun, it's always okay to be a second child, right?
However, although there are thoughts in the heart, they can't express the Tai Chi of Xiàn, don't you want to be humble? Of course, there are also people who don't know how to be humble.
I saw Dian Wei take a step forward, and said angrily: "My lord, I wish Mao Sui to recommend himself for the position of deputy commander, and I also ask my lord for permission." ”
"Hong Fei, do you know what the duties of the deputy commander are?" Yuan Chang rolled his eyes, and did not refuse Dian Wei, but asked first.
"Lord, what else can there be, isn't it just like a general, leading troops to fight, isn't it?"
"I said Hong Fei, you don't know what the deputy commander is going to do, and you dare to recommend yourself?" Yuan Chang scolded with a smile, and then said: "Although the deputy commander is one level lower than the commander, he is like the commander, and he has to organize reconnaissance and collection, study the enemy situation, and the terrain and meteorology of the combat area. political and economic conditions, prepare materials for the commanders to make up their minds, and submit construction reports; draw up battle plans and coordinated action plans, troop mobilization and troop expansion plans, and various operational support plans; convey commanders' orders and instructions and inspect the implementation of troop implementation; organize troop mobility, adjust deployment, and supervise and help troop units complete combat preparations on time; organize the establishment of alarms, It is necessary to organize reliable communications and liaison and to carry out covert command; to organize the opening of command posts and observation posts; to grasp changes in the battlefield situation, to promptly report to commanders and higher-level commands, to inform troops and friendly neighbors, to propose new constructions, to organize new coordination, and to ensure uninterrupted command; to organize battlefield preparations and to guide equipment and material reserves; to plan and organize the distribution, management, and technological innovation of weapons and equipment of the troops; to organize and implement combat readiness education and military training, and to implement various combat readiness systems. Hong Fei, what do you think you can do with these requirements?"
Don't say that Dian Wei was dumbfounded when he heard this, even Zhao Yun was dumbfounded at the moment. They all thought that there was no difference between the commander and the previous generals, but now when they heard Yuan Chang say this, it seems that the difference is too big, how many of today's generals can do this?
A treacherous smile flashed at the corner of Yuan Chang's mouth, and he said, "Zilong, I know you don't have confidence either. However, you can all rest assured, I will build a military academy where every officer will enter the military academy for training before he can become a qualified officer. So don't worry about anything. ”
After listening to the commander's duties, they were already very sad, and when they heard Yuan Chang say that they were going to enter the military academy to study, they were even more sad! )
