Chapter 119: Pioneer Officer
(Wake up early to update, on the shelves this Friday, please support it then, thank you!) )
When he walked out of the county hall, Luo Cheng had already become the vanguard officer of Qi County's suppression of bandits.
He is now not only the head catcher of the third class of Zhangqiu County and the captain of the Changbai Township Regiment, but also the county commander Zhang Xutuo officially awarded Luo to become the pioneer officer of the suppression of bandits, and let him serve as the captain of the county barracks of Zhangqiu County.
The county lieutenant is an official position under the eight grades, and since the Great Cause Dynasty, the newly awarded county lieutenant is basically the imperial examination jinshi and the Ming classics.
The post of county lieutenant of Zhangqiu County has been vacant for a long time.
Temporarily acting county lieutenant, that is also a county lieutenant.
Although some counties have one county and some counties have two, in the county office, the county governor is an important official of the county government, and he assists the county order administration together with the county magistrate.
In a county, the county magistrate is the prefect and is responsible for coordinating the administrative affairs of the county.
The county magistrate is the deputy governor and assists in the administration of the county order.
The main bookkeeper is the inspector, who is responsible for checking documents and supervising county government.
The county lieutenant is specifically responsible for carrying out the work, and his duties include administrative, judicial, financial and other aspects.
If we use the analogy of modern institutions and organizations, then the county order is equivalent to the secretary, the county chief is equivalent to the county magistrate, the chief secretary is equivalent to the discipline inspection secretary, and the county lieutenant is the executive deputy county magistrate.
When there was no county lieutenant in office, Zhangqiu County Cheng was always in charge of Liucao.
Because Zhangqiu County has not been established for many years, it must be streamlined in all aspects, for example, there are generally six Caos in the county, while Zhangqiu County only has two Caos in the judicial department. The counties with Liucao are basically Shang County and Jing County, and these counties often have two county lieutenants.
If there is only one county lieutenant, it is generally the county lieutenant who is in charge of two Cao, and if there are six Cao and two county lieutenants, then the two county lieutenants are each in charge of three Cao.
The county lieutenants of the Sui Dynasty were very different from those of the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, and the main duties of the county lieutenants in the Song Dynasty were responsible for judicial arrest of thieves, which was equivalent to the chief of the county public security bureau.
However, the county lieutenant of the Sui Dynasty had many responsibilities, such as judicial arrest of theft, trial of cases, judgment documents, collection of taxes, etc., all of which were the duties of the county lieutenant.
Now Zhang Xutuo appointed Luo Cheng as the acting county lieutenant, he was temporarily in charge of the military man, and the county Cheng was in charge of the Gong Hu Cang, but the county Cheng is still under house arrest because he was implicated in the anti-thief case, so Luo Cheng, the new acting county lieutenant, is actually helping to take charge of the affairs of the six Cao Shu.
Under the circumstance that the county secretary and the chief bookkeeper are actually unable to be directors, Luo Cheng has become the second-in-command of Zhangqiu County after the county commander Zhang Yichen.
However, this second-in-command is not so easy to be, and now is a special time to quell the chaos and suppress bandits, so Zhang Xutuo, the second-in-command of Qi County, temporarily appointed him as the acting county lieutenant, but whether he can be turned into a regular one has to be decided by the imperial court.
In his case, he has no rank, no rank, no background, and it is unlikely that he will turn positive after the chaos is basically quelled.
Of course, with the temporary official position of county lieutenant in his body, Luo Cheng got an official robe.
A dark cyan round-necked robe with black leather boots, a leather belt, and a black official hat.
After putting it on, it really has a bit of official authority.
Although you can see the superiority at a glance compared to Zhang Yichen's dark green official uniform, Luo Cheng still likes this cyan, and he is a little sensitive to green, especially dark green.
The county lieutenant is also the capital lieutenant, so Luo Cheng's men and horses have also increased.
Now he has a county barracks of 500 people, plus five township corps of 1,000 people, plus 230 people who are also the third class of county officials, which can be called a huge number, but the quality is not very good.
But to put it mildly, commanding a battalion and six regiments of 1,700 men and horses can still scare people.
In order to allow Luo Cheng, a pioneer officer, to enter the mountains and level the thieves, Zhang Xutuo also specially pulled a regiment from the three county barracks directly under the county town to him, and also pulled out another team of his personal guards.
In this way, Luo Cheng's subordinates really have 2,000 people.
Zhang Xutuo also gave him a note, with which he could receive ten deputy team-level Mingguang armor and fifty deputy government soldiers-level two first-class armor. And he drew fifty bows, fifty crossbows, fifty swords, a hundred spears, a hundred shields, and two hundred spears.
As a pioneer, Luo Cheng needs to lead the team first, go deep into the mountains, find out the bandits, and open the way for the army.
He went back to his public house first.
Gather the lieutenants, team leaders, and instructors of the township regiment.
As soon as I told everyone, everyone cheered.
"You're going to be a county lieutenant?" Daddy was a little surprised.
And Luo Cunxiao pulled Luo Cheng's dark green official robe and looked left and right, very envious, "Eighth rank official, amazing, county lieutenant." ”
Everyone is not only envious of Luo Cheng's award, but also full of expectations for themselves.
After all, Luo Chengdu has been promoted to county lieutenant and lieutenant, so won't they also rise.
Zhang Xutuo did give Luo Cheng this right, and Zhang Xutuo let him decide the personnel arrangements at hand, and just report back.
"Don't worry about the rest, let's bring someone with me to get the equipment back first."
Ten pairs of bright light armor, fifty pairs of two armor.
Add fifty bows, fifty crossbows, fifty horizontal knives, one hundred spears, one hundred shields, and two hundred spears, and that's a mouth-watering piece of equipment.
Even if these equipment were the lowest-quality county-level weapons, they were what Luo Cheng couldn't ask for before.
Especially A, although only sixty pairs of armor were given this time, this is also a very generous amount.
Armor, even if it is a simple two-piece armor, the difference between having armor and not having armor is huge.
The value of a pair of armor is often equivalent to an extra life on the battlefield, this is not ordinary armor, this is equivalent to resurrection armor.
Luo Cheng now has only a dozen armor in the army, that is, ten veterans bring their own armor, and Luo Cheng and the seven of them got a piece of armor when they went to the county to participate in the suppression of thieves last time, a total of seventeen pieces of armor.
Now I have sixty pairs of armor, and the number of armor has been doubled several times.
Think about history, when the wild boar Pinurhachi raised his army, it was only eighteen pairs of armor.
I went to the county camp to get the equipment, and the people over there had already been instructed, and they didn't embarrass them, and the equipment was even ready.
On closer inspection, I found that they were indeed weapons of average quality.
The knife is general, the bow is average, and some of those armors are even damaged, but they are better than nothing, and everyone does not dislike them.
Finally, they were given a thousand arrows and a thousand spikes, which is equivalent to twenty arrows and crossbows for each bow.
Lao Jia, the former lieutenant of the county soldiers, soon rushed over, and he also brought a group of officers above the head of the county barracks.
"From now on, I am the deputy lieutenant of the county soldiers, and I am your assistant." Lao Jia said when he met. There was no unhappiness in his tone, he knew how many pounds and taels he had, he used to be just the deputy of the county army, but now he came to the county and county barracks with 500 people, he really had more than enough heart and not enough strength.
Luo Chenglai was convinced to be the captain, and he couldn't wait to shake off the pick.
"If you have any orders, just say it!"
Luo Cheng's gaze swept over these county barracks officers, they were basically brought by Lao Jia from the county town, and some of them were Lao Jia's subordinates in the former personal guard.
All of them are quite capable, especially since they are fully equipped, everyone wears armor, all of them are sabers, and they still have blood on their bodies.
It's just that these people used to be small soldiers, so although they have seen blood and been trained, they really can't let them bring a county barracks of newly recruited farmers.
"Meet the Captain!" Everyone honestly came to meet the new Shangguan.
"Hahaha, they're all brothers, please take a seat." Luo Cheng looked at these relatively well-equipped county barracks officers, and the corners of his mouth almost drooled.
