Chapter 148: Building the Foundation of the Dynasty

The boiling **** night of music, this is not only a night for the Qin army, but also a night for the people of Chang'an, this night is the night that belongs to them. For two years, since the fall of Chang'an, they have been living under the tyranny of Xianbei Hu. What's even more hateful is that those dog officials who usually work for tigers have turned into Xianbei Hu's accomplices, helping Xianbei Hu to oppress and rule them. If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Dudu often interceded for them in front of Xianbei Hu Dadan and Yu Wenpo, their lives would probably be even more difficult.

A while ago, Liangzhou rebelled, and the "order to kill Hu" of the Liangzhou rebel army Qin Army also spread throughout Yongzhou. At that time, they wanted to respond to the call of the Qin army, rise up and resist, and kill those Xianbei Hu of the dog day. However, when they saw Xianbei carrying a few bloody heads, they gave up this idea. Xianbei Hu is really powerful, how can these defenseless people be their opponents.

But then, things changed. Liangzhou was unexpectedly recovered by the Qin army, and then, the situation that was originally very favorable to Xianbei Hu took a sharp turn for the worse in an instant, and the situation became unfavorable to Xianbei Hu. Xianbei Hu saw that the situation was unfavorable, so he transferred Jiang Dudu out of Chang'an and put down the rebellion. As a result, they don't get any news.

Until more than half a month ago, Chang'an was also surrounded by the Qin army who rushed from Liangzhou. And they were used by the damned Xianbei Hu as a shield for the Qin army to attack Chang'an. Today, just today, Chang'an was recovered, and Xianbei Hu, who was usually proud of his might, was completely wiped out by the Qin army. What made them even happier was that Jiang Dudu had already led his subordinates and soldiers to respond to the call of the Qin army and join the Qin army. From Jiang Dudu's mouth, they learned that not only Chang'an, but also the entire Yongzhou was recovered. The people of Yongzhou no longer have to be bullied by Xianbei Hu.

After a night of carnival, it was not until the early hours of the morning that the noisy and noisy sound gradually calmed down. The vendors' stalls began to be set up in the streets, and they couldn't help but laugh when they looked at the black shadows that stood in the wind in the still twilight of the night. Recalling the heroic posture of those Qin soldiers who fought yesterday, they only felt a hundred times more relieved in their hearts.

With the arrival of the early morning, Zhu Sheng, Han Yue, Zhuge Liang, Wei Yi and others came to the Yongzhou Governor's Mansion, now the Shuai Mansion. After a short pleasantries, everyone got to the point.

"There are three topics for this time:

First, there are the institutional issues that have been mentioned earlier. Now, Yongzhou has been recovered, and Chang'an is in our hands. Before the war, Kong Ming, the various systems that they and the generals had proposed should also be implemented.

Second, this time to recover Yongzhou, I believe that the generals also know in their hearts, our Qin army is because of the large number of people, we can take back the land of Yongzhou. Not only that, but when Liangzhou was recovered, it was also the same. Therefore, the matter of organizing and training the army and training soldiers is urgent and cannot be delayed.

The third, and most important, is the issue of confidentiality. Xianbei Hu doesn't care about it, for the orcs and the Celestial Star Empire. In addition to the existing law, what other strategy can delay them to know that our Qin army has recovered Yongzhou. ”

Fan Zhongyan took out a few rolls of bamboo slips from his arms, bowed solemnly, and began to speak slowly: "Generals, we are already formulating various systems required by the new dynasty when we are in Liangzhou under the orders of the lord and the old master. It's just that before, after fighting in Liangzhou after repeated battles, I thought I could take it out and implement it. But because it was necessary to recover Yongzhou, it was postponed. Now, Fan will explain to you the various systems that we have formulated over the past few days. ”

As he spoke, Fan Zhongyan opened one of the bamboo slips and spread it on the table, and at the beginning of the bamboo slips, a few big characters were written: Three provinces and six departments and nine temples and five prisons.

As soon as the bamboo slip was opened, the five generals Zhu Sheng, Wang Lang, Han Yue, Li Shu, and Jiang Kai couldn't wait to surround it, and Fan Zhongyan's voice also sounded: "These three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons are the central official system, which evolved from the original Three Princes system of the Heavenly Star Empire. The three provinces are Zhongshu, Menxia and Shangshu. Filing and drafting of edicts and decrees of the Ministry of Chinese Books; The subordinates are responsible for reviewing the filing and draft of the Chinese book to decide whether to implement it or not; Shangshu Province is the administrative office, which is still divided into officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and six departments, each of which is a book and a servant, which is a system of three provinces and six ministries.

Nine temples and five supervisors, the nine temples are Taichang, Guanglu, Weiwei, Zongzheng, Taifu, Dali, Honglu, Sinong, Taifu; The five eunuchs are: Guozi, Shaofu, Jiangzuo, Dushui, and Weapons.

In addition to this, the Goshidai was also established. The Imperial Historical Observatory is the highest supervision department, with one Imperial Historian as its head and Imperial History Zhongcheng as its deputy. ”

With Fan Zhongyan's narration and the details written on the bamboo slips, the five people also understood the role of the three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons. The system of three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons is much more complete than the current imperial system, and the responsibilities of each department are clear, and the departments cooperate with each other and contain each other; The division of labor among the various officials is meticulous and their duties are clear.

The five of them nodded one after another, the system of the three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons is indeed good, but they are far more concerned about the problems related to the military system.

The expressions of the five people were all written on their faces, and Mo Feng and Ling Tianlei could not understand it. Mo Feng smiled knowingly and said to Wei Yu: "Wei Yu joins the army, it's your turn." ”

"No!" Wei Yi smiled, also took out a few rolls of bamboo slips from his arms, spread out one of them, and said: "Yongzhou Erzhou, excluding the troops stationed in various places, our army now has a total of 120,000 troops. It is now decided to reorganize the 120,000-strong army into five legions, and these five legions are the standing legions of our Qin army, which are recruitment. Each legion was divided into two armies, the left and the right, with the left army wearing black armor and the right army wearing red armor. Each legion has a general to command the entire legion. There are two generals, who command the left and right armies respectively.

The 10,000 men of the First Army, each army has four divisions, each division has 2,500 men, and is commanded by the division commander; Each division has two brigades, each with 1,250 men, under the command of the brigade commander; Each brigade has five teams, each with 250 people, led by the team leader; Each team has five fires, 50 people per fire, and is led by the fire chief; Each fire has five shes, and every tithe has 10 people, and is led by the chief; Each team has two troops, each with 5 people, and is led by the commander.

In addition, the county military system was abolished, and the prefecture and reserve system were introduced. The so-called Ochichong Prefecture is to establish the Ochichong Prefecture in the key counties and border areas, and each prefecture is composed of 1,250 people in a brigade. All men who have reached the age of 20 but are under the age of 35 are required to serve five years of military service, during which time they are exempt from the conscription of their entire family.

The reserve system has already begun to be implemented in Liangzhou, and all able-bodied men between the ages of 20 and 50 (of course, the government soldiers and the standing army are not included) must be incorporated into the military and become reserve soldiers. It doesn't matter if it's a businessman, an ordinary person, or anyone else. During the busy farming season, they all engaged in agriculture and business, and in this off-season they all had to participate in the training organized by the Ochichong Prefecture. ”

Looking at the bamboo slips that Wei Yu took out, the five of them couldn't help but nodded, the reserve soldiers are the reserve forces of the future empire, the government soldiers are the local army and border guards of the future empire, and the standing army is the field army. The reserves, the government soldiers and the standing army are linked together, and the rigor of the conception and the ingenuity of the design are really amazing! In this way, the forces of the entire empire are concentrated in the hands of the emperor of the empire.

"Five generals!" Just as the five of them were in deep thought, Sun Bin opened one of the bamboo slips and began to speak, "Five generals, what is recorded in this bamboo slip is the military merit system that my Qin army is about to implement, called the Twelve Turns of Honorable Officers.

For those who have been awarded military merits, the scribes accompanying the army shall record the situation before the war, the course of the war, and the results of victory and defeat on the battlefield or after the war, and at the same time record the number of enemies killed or captured by each officer or soldier, and report them to the Provincial Officials' Department. The secretary of the ministry repeatedly examined and verified that it was true, and then drew up the official rank, played the emperor, and waited for the official award.

According to the pre-war conditions: to fight less and more for "going into battle"; The number of troops (including the number of soldiers and equipment) is quite "in the middle of the battle", and the number of hits and few is the "lower battle". According to the results of the war: 40 percent of the enemy killed or captured is "captured"; Twenty percent of the enemy killed or captured is "captured"; Ten percent of the enemy killed or captured is "captured".

In accordance with the pre-war conditions and the results of the war, the "turnaround" number was drawn up on a comprehensive basis. Go into battle and get five turns; In battle, the middle won four turns; The upper and lower scores are three turns, and the following is decreasing. The officer has no position, no business, only an increase in office.

The twelve officers are: 12 turns, Shangzhu State, 11th turn, Zhuguo; Ten turns?, on the guard; Nine turns, the protectors; Eight turns, on the light car lieutenant; Seven turns, light car captain; Six turns, riding the captain; Four turns?, Xiao Cavalry Captain; Three turns, flying knights; Second turn, cloud cavalry lieutenant; A turn, a military cavalry lieutenant. ”

Then, Yu Qian opened a roll of bamboo slips and said, "Five generals, look this way again." What is recorded on this scroll of bamboo slips is the system of official grades, civil and military officials, official officials, and officials. In the future, the empire will divide all official positions into nine grades and thirty levels according to the upright, subordinate, upper and lower ranks, including official titles, civil and military officials, sanguan, and honors. At the same time, it also lists the ...... that each level of officials can obtain."

"And the one who decided all of the above was the Junda system." As soon as Yu Qian's words fell, Zhuge Liang opened a roll of bamboo slips on the table, "This is also what we need to do in the next period of time." The equalization system is to take over the ownerless wasteland and state it, and then distribute a part of it to the landless people according to the population. The land was owned by him after a certain number of years of cultivation, and part of the land was returned to the government after his death.

The rest of the land, just like the bamboo slips that Tingyi had just shown to the generals, were distributed to the officials as a stipend.

There are other systems, a few of us are still improving, and when Yizhou is captured, the lord is officially called the emperor, and it must be about the same at that time. ”

Roll after roll of bamboo slips, one system after another, constantly stimulated the brains of the five people, and by the end, they had been completely led away by the nose, and they couldn't even hear what Yu Qian and Zhuge Liang were talking about. These few people, in a short period of time, have formulated so many systems, which is much more difficult than their marching and fighting. The admiration in my heart came spontaneously.

At the same time, they were also convinced that what Fan Zhongyan, Wei Yu, Yu Qian, and Zhuge Liang were doing now was indeed building a foundation for the future empire, and building a foundation for Mo Feng to ascend the throne and the emperor.
