Chapter 47 Candidates

Needless to say, the six Shangshu are very big, and it is not easy to compete for this position, but the official position of one of the six Shangshu represents not only one of the six Shangshu, but a series of official changes.

It was already a matter of time before Wang Chonggu gave his respects, and the emperor gave Wang Chonggu permission to give him the treatment he deserved, which can be regarded as a complete merit.

Now the question is who can be on top, and this person in the top position touches the hearts of countless people.

Soon the candidates recommended by the cabinet came out, and the left squire of the military department Zeng Shengwu, although he was pushed up, everyone was not very optimistic about him, because his qualifications were not enough. However, Zeng Xingwu is Zhang Juzheng's descendant, and no one dares to underestimate it.

Zhang Juzheng can even be promoted to the secretary of the ministry by Zhang Han, not to mention Zeng Shengwu.

Zhu Yijun flipped through Zeng Xingwu's information, and couldn't help but let out a "huh" when he saw the back. Sure enough, Zhang Juzheng appointed capable people, this Zeng Xingwu is not simple, now he is the left waiter of the military department, and he was promoted because he pacified the capital.

When he saw Zhu Yijun, he thought of Liu Xian, is this considered a different life for the same people?

Zeng Xingwu was the overseer, and after pacifying the capital, the official was promoted to the left servant of the military department, not only returned to Beijing, but also the official position was promoted. What about Liu Xian? Before the pacification of the capital, he was the chief soldier, and after the pacification, he was still the chief soldier.

Liu Xian wanted to go home, but the court did not allow it, and he is still working hard in Yungui.

sighed, Zhu Yijun looked helpless, and wanted the civil officials to put the credit on the generals, but it was impossible. If you win, it is the civil officials who strategize and make great efforts, and if you lose, the military generals will take the blame and the charges will be deducted, this is the status quo of the Ming Dynasty!

The status of military generals is low, and if this problem is not solved, there is no way to talk about the problem of loyalty.

Maybe some military generals are the country and their home, but what about the soldiers at the bottom? Why do you join the army, most of them do it for food. When you are a soldier and eat food, forget it desperately! Such people can only become soldiers, and if you want to rely on them to fight, don't think about it.

Only when we are fighting for a future and seeing hope can we have combat effectiveness. Who will fight when there is no hope?

The reason why the Qin army's combat effectiveness is so strong that it can defeat the well-equipped elite Wei Wushu with cloth clothes and armor, because of what? You must know that Wei Wushu is a well-equipped hoplite, and the Qin army can win in addition to the Qin soldiers' hard fighting, the most important thing is to be knighted for military merit.

At that time, there were still a lot of slaves in Daqin, but it didn't matter, as long as you had military merits, you could not only get rid of slave status, but also get a knighthood and become a master. Those who can't afford to eat, carry knives and go to fight with people.

What are they for, they are not from a Bo background, how can the combat effectiveness of such an army not be high?

The entire Qin State is like a huge war machine, the lower layers push the upper layers to fight, and they can't stop if they want to.

Military merit represents the title, the money, the house, and the beautiful woman, and the entire Qin State is filled with the idea of immediately looking for a marquis. Only then did the powerful Qin army that swept through Liuhe have the spirit of "old Qin".

Zhu Yijun put aside Zeng Xingwu's information, and once again realized that reform was not an overnight thing.

If the system is reformed from the top down and pushed down, the difficulty will not be mentioned, and the effect will not be good. O new army! Zhu Yijun couldn't help but set his eyes on Shanxi and Shaanxi, these two people are the key!

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi and Shanxi would always be inseparable, and they might become the first pilot of their own military reform.

The Qin soldiers have endured hard fighting since ancient times, whether it is the Qin Dynasty or the Han and Tang Dynasties, the powerful army bred by the 800-mile Qinchuan is a force that shocks the world.

Putting Zeng Xingwu's information aside, Zhu Yijun was picking up a piece of information, which was recommended by Wang Chonggu as the governor of Datong.

It is not clear how Fang can fight at the right time, but this person is obviously a figure with a strategic vision. When he was the governor of Shanxi, he cooperated with Wang Chonggu to do a lot of things, and after Wang Chonggu left, he did a good job.

To build castles, train soldiers, and promote Altan Khan's tribute, strategy and vision are all in question.

The work is also stable, and at the same time, he has done it step by step from the county, and he has low-level experience, so he is a very suitable person. Zhu Yijun put aside Fang Fengshi's information and directly picked up the last one.

This information is Liang Menglong, the governor of Jiliao, who is also a very qualified person.

Before Liang Menglong became the governor of Jiliao, he had already been the left attendant of the military department, which was more senior than Zeng Shengwu, and at the same time, he did a good job as the governor of Jiliao, and was qualified to compete for the position of the secretary of the military department.

However, what interests Zhu Yijun is not this, but Liang Menglong's experience in Longqing.

With the development of the commodity economy in the Ming Dynasty, a large number of private merchant ships come and go on the Grand Canal, causing the canal to be often congested. And with the passage of time, the canal transportation maladministration was numerous.

The biggest problem for canal transportation is the bursting of the Yellow River, which is blocked in the event of an eventuality.

In view of the maladministration of the canal and the breach of the Yellow River, there are constantly calls for rectification and reform, and some of them advocate the resumption of maritime transportation. Among these people, Liang Menglong, who was the governor of Shandong at the time, was a representative figure.

He believes that "the river seems to be safe and labor-intensive, and the sea transportation is dangerous and convenient.

This plan was supported by Gao Gong, a scholar of the first auxiliary university of the cabinet at that time, and after being instructed, Liang Menglong sent Wang Weijing and others to carry out many trial shipping activities, and then carried out visits and surveys.

In addition, Liang Menglong also ordered that any military and civilian personnel in coastal areas should be given licenses if they were willing to buy themselves or buy miscellaneous grains, load them on their own ships, and sell them from Haikou in Jiaozhou to Tianjin.

If it is a good citizen, it is rewarded, and if it is a guilty person, it is allowed to atone for it by trial sea.

With the encouragement of Liang Menglong, many people have taken the initiative to try shipping, and the seaway exploration work has been carried out smoothly. Thanks to Liang Menglong's active efforts, he finally had a lot of understanding of the ports, schedules, and miles of the sea channel.

Zhu Yijun is interested in this, and it can be seen from here that this Liang Menglong is definitely not a corrupt Confucian, but a person who really does things.

Especially the policy of forgiveness of sins by sea, it can be said that it hit Zhu Yijun's mind at once, after all, navigation is very dangerous now, and with the local complex of the people of the Ming Dynasty, there are not many people who are willing to go to the sea to work hard.

There may be profits after seeing them, but it is not easy to promote them in the early stage, and these criminals are very suitable!
