Chapter 251: The Great Song Dynasty's Hundred Years of Accumulation
Jin Fushi and Park Jingguang were arranged clearly.
After all, it was Qin Huiwan who could leave a stink for thousands of years to take action in person, and Wang Ji, the right attendant of the household department, was beating the side drum next to him, and everything Jin and Pu saw in the border city of Luanzhou proved that Qin Hui was correct in playing these routines all the time.
Especially after Qin Huiwan deliberately took Jin Fushi and Pu Chengxing to a trip that had just started construction, but after spending more than half a year to finish the foundation of the city wall, no matter how shrewd Jin Fushi and Pu Jingguang were, they would inevitably rush to get on the stretcher that Qin Huiyu had.
Of course, Jin Fushi and Park Sung-sex can barely have a bit of status in Goryeo, but in the Great Song Dynasty, they are not even a fart.
Zhao Huan didn't care about these two guys after throwing them to Qin Hui to play. Because compared with the two sticks, Zhao Huan is more concerned about Da Song's own problems.
The problem of the Martyrs' Shrine, the problem of the army, the problem of the post station, the problem of administrative division, and so on made Zhao Huan's head as big as a fight-
The problem of the Martyrs' Shrine is the best to solve, and it can be solved as long as it costs money.
But what about the rest of the questions?
It is a clear fact that the army is useless, and there was a broken incident where more than two forbidden troops were chased and beaten by twenty-seven golden soldiers before, and now there can even be a broken incident where the Leizhou Navy Division ran the wrong way at sea.
It's the same with the inn.
The post station system of the Great Song Dynasty was under the dual jurisdiction of the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, and the Ministry of War was specifically concerned with the statutes and regulations of the post post, the deployment of personnel, the allocation of horses, and so on, while the Privy Council dealt with matters such as the issuance of post horses and the promulgation of the letter and sign of the post office.
However, in fact, the Great Song Dynasty's pavilion system was completely separated from the correspondence and mail, and only performed a duty to receive past officials, while the institutions that delivered government documents and letters had another name, collectively called "delivery", and were divided into several types: "urgent foot delivery", "horse delivery" and "foot delivery".
The person responsible for delivering the letter has a "delivery man", also known as a shop soldier, who is generally filled by the local box soldier and is the main person who delivers the documents. The postal personnel were changed from the people to the soldiers, which was a rule formulated by Zhao Da in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, because "the former agent of the post, all the people were served", which increased a great burden on the people.
After Zhao Da ascended the throne, he "immediately reformed this evil" and began to "use military soldiers to replace the people as the husbands", and then set up special post guards to reduce the burden of the people.
However, the Central Plains Dynasty has had the ability to recite good scriptures since ancient times.
According to the regulations, they should be paid monthly by the imperial court, but the officials withheld them layer by layer, which often made these soldiers in a situation of lack of food and clothing. Some are "entangled and lacking, hungry and frozen", and some are "not given food and clothing", and "the rate is flogged".
In order to survive, these soldiers and shopkeepers had to gather in the mountains and forests and fall into the grass. In order to prevent the soldiers from escaping, the Song Dynasty court waved its hand and played the old routine - stabbing the soldiers in the face and arms like prisoners.
Then these soldiers became more and more reluctant to be this soldier.
Under the vicious circle, the post station system of the Great Song Dynasty was basically abandoned.
As for the issue of administrative divisions, it is even more fucked.
The administrative division of the Great Song Dynasty was Lu, which was roughly equivalent to the province of the Ming Dynasty and slightly similar to the "Dao" of the Tang Dynasty.
However, although the court of the Great Song Dynasty claimed to have 26 roads, but in fact there were only 24 roads before the first year of Jingkang, and now at the end of the third year of Jingkang, the actual control territory of the Great Song Dynasty has far exceeded the 26 roads.
Under the establishment of roads, there should also be a government, a prefecture, and a county army, and a prison, and a county and a county under the government, a state, a military, and a prison under the county, and a county and a county, and a three-level system of roads, prefectures, military, and prisons, and counties (army, and prisons) should be implemented in local administrative divisions.
However, it was under such a complex, chaotic and extremely bloated administrative structure that a small court system was born, which made Zhao Huan, a traverser, feel that his head was buzzing.
And these messy things are very difficult to solve - if they can be solved really easily, Zhao Huan should have started to solve them after destroying Western Xia in the first place, so why delay it until the end of the third year of Jingkang?
Because on the surface, the problem of the post station is the problem of the post station, the problem of the army is the problem of the army, and the problem of administrative division is not close to the post station and the army.
However, in fact, in addition to the post station, the remaining problems of the administrative structure and the problems of the army can be said to be really involved in the whole body.
If the administrative division is restructured, not only the road and the bureaucracy under it will have to be restructured, but even the garrisons and post stations will definitely have to be restructured. If the army is to be restructured, the administrative divisions and post stations must also be changed. Even if the post station that has accumulated for 100 years is to be changed, it is by no means so easy to change.
Perhaps the emperors of the Zhao family originally intended to divide the authority of local officials and generals in this way, so that the court and the army could check each other and restrain each other, so as to achieve the goal that no one could pose a threat to the imperial power.
However, as the political situation of the Great Song Dynasty became more and more complicated, the bureaucratic system became more and more bloated, and the army became more and more complete, these messy problems began to slowly appear.
The fact that most of the revenue of the state treasury is spent on keeping the system running is enough to illustrate the problem.
Don't think that the traverser can easily change these problems - the traverser is so awesome?
Even if this traverser is an emperor, he has the experience of being an emperor, and he will be numb in the face of these messy problems.
Those who became emperors after crossing over thought that they could change as much as they wanted, and used the experience of later generations directly, and it would be good not to play themselves to death first - Comrade Wang Mang to understand?
In addition to Comrade Wang Mang, Daming also has Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Youxiao, two unlucky guys, which are living examples in front of us.
Therefore, Zhao Huan just proposed a few ways to scare the Jin soldiers at the beginning of the crossing, and he was not very concerned about this, and even sat back and watched Yan Zong's soldiers surround Bianjing.
Because only after Yan Zongwang's soldiers besieged Bianjing, Zhao Huan could take the opportunity to hold the military power and the Imperial City Division. And the military power and the Imperial City Division are the fundamental years for an emperor to settle down.
Don't say that Zhao Huan has a black heart.
If your heart is not black, you can't be an emperor.
And now the first question in front of Zhao Huan is where to start?
There is no need to think about the post station for the time being. Because the nature of the post station itself has already determined that no matter how Zhao Huan changes it, it will not have an impact on the stability of the Great Song Dynasty for the time being.
So do you start with the administrative structure? Or do you want to start with the army first?
