Chapter Ninety-Three: Tianjin Adaptation II (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)

Zhu Cihong's words were a bit unexpected by Zhu Chunjie. Because Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu Si has always been a tool for the Ming Dynasty emperor to deter unscrupulous officials, and there is also a Dongzhi Factory supervised by eunuchs that has the same effect.

However, Zhu Cihong has now greatly restricted Jinyiwei's authority to investigate internally, and also claimed that "officials are corrupt and have their own Metropolitan Procuratorate accountable...... The officials of the Ming Dynasty are not afraid of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!

Is it too lenient for the prince to do this?

But this prince is clearly the master who kills people without blinking and does not blush, and it is not like saying that he is a benevolent monarch!

"Chitose Master," Zhu Chunjie thought about it, and still reminded him very responsibly, "Although the suppression is violent, it is also a deterrent to illegal officials. Qu Shiyun, a member of the Donglin Party, once said to people: One belongs to the Ti Cavalry, that is, the next calmdown, the soul flies to the soup fire, the cruelty is unspeakable, and once you get to send it to the law department, it is nothing less than the joy of heaven......"

"Hahaha," Zhu Cihong smiled, "to suppress the violence, and the law is useless...... It needs to be overhauled. The poison of the cavalry should be feared by the rebels, thieves, and captives. The ministers who are corrupt and pervert the law should change their color when they hear the law. This is the way to do our job and work together for the country. Suppressing the encroachment on the power of the legal department and allowing the legal department to do nothing is not what this palace wants. The palace will stay in Tianjin and Dagu for a few days, and it will greatly rectify the affairs of the pacification, the legal department, the camps, and the use of finance. And the pacification and camps are a top priority!

Huaiyuan, without further ado, you can start rebuilding Beizhen Fusi tonight! The main palace will give you a battalion and a fund of 10,000 taels of silver. You need to put up the faΓ§ade of the Suppression Division within three days, and you can find the personnel yourself, but you can't mobilize more than 50 people from the existing camps, can you understand? ”

"Command!" Zhu Chunjie hurriedly got up and saluted Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong nodded, "The order of the Fu Army will be issued tomorrow, but it can be done tonight." If you can get some people, let them wear flying fish suits and mandarin duck jackets to patrol the city to deter Xiaoxiao.

In addition, Hao Shaoqi's side should send people to keep an eye on them and not let them slip away from the barracks. ”

After speaking, he raised his hand lightly and motioned Zhu Chunjie to hurry up and do something.

Zhu Cihong, the prince of the Fujun Army, is really efficient! Emperor Chongzhen couldn't compare at all when he was in Beijing. For example, such a big matter as rectifying Jinyiwei has to be put in Chongzhen's hands, God knows when the cabinet will be able to come up with a vote? But in the hands of Zhu Cihong, it's just a sentence...... The four scholars are now his rubber stamps, where can they use the brocade guards to scare them?

Watching Zhu Chunjie leave, Zhu Cihong picked up the teacup and drank saliva, moistened his throat, and then talked to Wu Xiang and Cao Youyi.

As he said just now, the most urgent task at the moment is to straighten out the towns and camps. The whole thing has been explained, and now it's time to talk about the camps.

"How many soldiers do we have now?"

Wu Xiang replied: "Your Highness, now there are three battalions of Kenan, one battalion of tiger guards, one battalion of dragoons, one battalion of guards, and one battalion of Shuntian patrol on this side of Tianjin Wei, as well as about 3,000 people in the battalions of Tianjin town guards, as well as 2,500 brave people brought by Cao Huachun from Wang Qingtuo, and about 2,000 brave people from the families of the nobles and officials who came with him, and there are always some people raised by Tianjin Sanwei, about 14,000 people."

In addition, Tianjin Wei has been an important military industrial town since the battle of Wanli to aid the dynasty, and there are many craftsmen in the city, who can be recruited to make equipment for the army. β€œ

Zhu Cihong nodded, "Finally, I have some strength, it's time to set up a generalissimo's mansion." ”

Wu Xiang looked at Zhu Cihong and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness wants to open a mansion in Tianjin?" ”

Zhu Cihong nodded and said with a smile: "Strike while the iron is hot!" Now the court is wandering, the ministers are upset, the father is discouraged, and the rebellious army is following. Isn't it a godsend opportunity for this palace to open the Generalissimo's Mansion? Moreover, the terrain here in Tianjin is favorable, the city is strong, and the Wei River leads to the sea, so we can stay for a while and sort out the team by the way. ”

Wu Xiang nodded, "Your Highness said the same, but I don't know how Your Highness is going to open the mansion?" ”

Zhu Cihong smiled: "It's just some ideas, let's talk about it with the two of you." He paused, "The Generalissimo's Mansion is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, so naturally if you want to seize the power of the military department, it must be a yamen that transfers, commands, and manages troops."

Therefore, under the Generalissimo's Palace, there should be a subordinate yamen such as the guard of dispatch and military administration, and the army that directly commands the army. The guard does not care about the command of the troops and horses, and the army does not care about the dispatch and military administration, but only the command of the troops and horses to fight.

The so-called dispatch includes the selection of generals, the transfer of troops, the transmission of orders, the investigation of internal and external military situations, and the formulation of military strategies and guidelines.

The so-called military administration includes such affairs as recruitment, salaries, rations, land grants, weapons, promotions, and punishments for officers and men.

As for the commander of the troops, of course, he directly leads the troops, and the affairs of operations and training are under the jurisdiction of the commander of the troops......"

What Zhu Cihong said was nothing more than the management method of military orders and the separation of military and political affairs in later generations. It's not very clever, but it is more applicable to the current chaotic command and management system of the Ming army.

At the very least, we can clarify the powers and responsibilities, strengthen supervision, and limit the power of military leaders.

Wu Xiang and Cao Youyi frowned slightly when they heard Zhu Cihong talk about their plans. Cao Youyi didn't say anything, he was not familiar with Zhu Cihong. However, Wu Xiang regarded himself as the prince's confidant, and reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness, let's do this, I'm afraid the chief military officer who leads the troops in other towns will not be happy, right?" ”

Zhu Cihong smiled and shook his head, "How can there be a foreign town?" Now there is a Tianjin Wei ...... The general soldiers of other towns have to be coaxed, and the generalissimo's office can manage the soldiers of Tianjin Wei. Mr. Cao, this is to take your power! ”

Cao Youyi was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly got up to salute, but was stopped by Zhu Cihong waving his hand.

"Mr. Cao, this palace knows that you are a loyal minister! Hongu trusts you! ”

Cao Youyi didn't kneel, but he still said with a straight face: "The minister is willing to die for the prince and Daming!" ”

"Good, good!" Zhu Cihong nodded again and again, looked at Wu Xiang again, and said with a smile: "Old Taishan, how about handing over the three camps you brought to the palace?" ”

Wu Xiang said with a smile: "Those three battalion leaders are originally His Highness's people. ”

"Your Family ......"

"It's all for Your Highness!" What Wu Xiang said was generous.

Zhu Cihong smiled and said: "If my Ming military officers can be as loyal as the two of them, why worry about big things?"

Both of them are rare loyal ministers, and this palace must be of great use. Therefore, the commanders of the military command guard and the military and political guards established under the Generalissimo's office are held by two people. The military commander Wei was responsible for scheduling, and the Wei Shuai was served by Cao Zongzhen. The military and political guards are in charge of the military administration, and the guard commander is served by Lao Taishan.

In addition, all the armies in the Tianjin Acropolis, including the guards of the main palace, all became an army, with the military name of overcoming difficulties, which was called the army of overcoming difficulties. The chief officer of the Kenan Army was appointed by Wu Sanfu! ”

Wu Xiang couldn't hide his surprise when he heard this, and the Wu family used it to the extreme this time...... Zhu Cihong, this is handing over all the troops at hand to Wu Sanfu!

I was happy in my heart, but I still had to be modest, Wu Xiang hurriedly excused my son: "Your Highness, the third son and three assistants of the minister are young and shallow, I am afraid it will be difficult to take on this big responsibility......

"Old Taishan doesn't need to mention Sanfu's humble resignation," Zhu Cihong said with a smile, "The third sister is the concubine of the palace, and Sanfu is the uncle of the country, they are all a family, and they have the ability, who can he use if he doesn't use it much?" ”

Wu Xiang thought about it, it seemed to be the same thing. Zhu Cihong really has no generals around him who can be the general soldiers of the First Army, Li Ruolian, Wang Qi, Wang Zhou, Sun Fugui, Wang Guoyong These people do not have much experience in leading troops to fight, and it is very difficult to lead a battalion, how can the general soldiers of the First Army do it?

As for Zhu Chunchen, Zhang Shize, and Li Guozhen, these vases and nobles, they can't lead troops, isn't it looking for death if they give them soldiers?

And here in Tianjin, Cao Youyi said that his Tianjin soldiers are gone! There are also two deputy commanders who were promoted by the firing line because they caught Jin Bin and Lou Guangxian, and the ones named Chen Jian and Mu Yong are even more useless, but the thousand general Zhang Wenjue, who sold a few of them from Yuan Yuzong, is a little more capable, but he can't command an army. So Wu Sanfu is really the only candidate who can be the chief officer of this army!

Of course, Zhu Cihong will not hand over the power of the Conqueror Army to Wu Sanfu, otherwise it would be a joke to use the Conqueror Army to restrain Wu Sangui?

Zhu Cihong continued: "Under the army, there should be six levels: division, association, battalion, flag, team, and army. With the addition of the army, there are seven levels in total. How to organize the group, Lao Taishan and Mr. Cao, you have a good discussion, and draw up a charter as soon as possible.

Division, association, battalion, banner and other four-level officials should be one and the other, and the specific list should be discussed by the three of you, Lao Taishan, Sanfu, and Cao Zongzhen...... Draw up a larger list, each position must have two people to choose from, and the palace will personally talk to them one by one, and after examining the martial arts, then decide the final candidate.

In addition, the main palace also had a new weapon called the sleeve spur. Huang Xiaobao, bring the thorn to show you. ”
