Zhu Pingjin's speech set the basic tone for Songpan's military and civilian governance pattern, and also opened up a brand-new line of thought for solving the problem of Tusi in the Sichuan frontier.

After the meeting was dismissed, everyone did not disperse, but continued to hold a meeting under the convening of Liao Daheng to further discuss many matters such as the reorganization of the army, civil affairs, confrontation, passes, taxation, grain storage, establishment of counties, appointment of officials, Tusi, and soldiers in the Long, Song, and Mao regions.

These affairs need to be issued in a timely manner, so that they can be implemented as soon as possible by taking advantage of the upcoming meeting of important ministers to connect with the relevant officials of the Inspectorate, the Third Division, the Administrative Affairs Department of the Shu Wangfu and the Three Headquarters. Among them, the more complicated issue is the issue of personnel arrangements, and Jun Sun Hong, the director of the National Defense Army, who is bent on mixing sand with sand in the Long, Song, and Mao areas, has put forward a brand-new concept called "cadres aiding the border areas."

The concept of "aiding border cadres" is not a spark that pops out of Sun Hong's head. Its sudden release has a large and complex background, and it is even mixed with some of Sun Hong's personal secret thoughts.

Reserve cadres used to be the confidants of the prince Zhu Pingjin. As Zhu Pingjin's master, Shu Wenyi, traveled around the world to organize the Shu examination in various state capitals in Sichuan, the contradiction of the shortage of reserve cadres was gradually eased, and the number of reserve cadres who passed the Shu examination reached about 800.

This batch of reserve cadres passed the intensive training at the Songlin Mountain base and were all included in the military status of the National Defense Army, so the specific distribution of cadres is not in the administrative department, but in the military department of the director.

After taking over the territory won by Zhu Pingjin's year-end war, Vice Premier Li Chongwen proposed a so-called "Northern Sichuan Revitalization Plan" in the face of the devastated towns and villages.

The core of the plan is to comprehensively strengthen the control of the local government through the transformation of the local government into a local government. This will then speed up the recovery of agricultural production through tighter controls, which in turn will lay the food foundation for the prosperity of industry and commerce.

The local government is made Zhuang and the control is strengthened, and cadres are needed. Li Chongwen had no cadres, so he stretched out his hand to Zhu Pingjin. Zhu Pingjin generally agreed with this plan and instructed the military department of the superintendent to support it in the allocation of cadres.

With the victories of the Protector Army in the battlefields of Yilong, Langzhong, Bazhou, Nanjiang, Tongjiang, and Dazhou, this "Northern Sichuan Revitalization Plan" was naturally expanded from Guang'an and Hezhou in the Qujiang Valley to Baoning, Kuizhou, Tongchuan, Chongqing, Chongqing, and Chengdu.

This new area is huge, totaling about fifty counties, occupying the west of Longquan Mountain, the east of Huaying Mountain, and the entire Bashan area.

The large-scale development of the local Wangzhuang management system, the tremendous pressure on the land reclamation targets in various localities, and the development of characteristic industries have all caused a large demand for military and political cadres in the localities. But the army and the emerging king have industrial and commercial financial enterprises that also need cadres. The princes everywhere are desperately calling for dignitaries, and this group of trained cadres in the hands of the military headquarters has become a coveted target for all parties.

In this regard, the military department of the superintendent proposed a preliminary distribution plan to the prince, that is, 350 people in the local area, 250 people in the army, 100 people in the industrial, commercial, financial and military industries, 50 people in the cultural and propaganda associations, and the remaining 50 reserve cadres who were excellent in all aspects of ideological quality, physical condition, education level, and family background were enriched to the Shu Wangfu and other commanding organs.

However, this personnel distribution plan, which seemed to take care of the interests and needs of all parties, was severely criticized by Zhu Pingjin.

Zhu Pingjin believes that every specific work in the current period should be combined with the key points in the current comprehensive work. You can't press five fleas with five fingers, and you can't press any of them. This is the principle that the part is subordinate to the whole, and the secondary is subordinate to the focus.

At present, the focus is on the unification of military and government orders in Sichuan Province. To put it bluntly, the unification of the decree is to integrate the yamen at all levels of Sichuan's two Taiwans, three divisions, provinces, prefectures, prefectures, and counties; The unification of military orders is the all-round militarization of Sichuan's main and guest armies and battalion guards. To achieve this goal, these reserve cadres are an important personnel resource.

Zhu Pingjin stressed: It is necessary to strengthen the ideals and hopes of this group of reserve cadres, encourage their enthusiasm and enthusiasm, integrate, unite, and transform the old yamen, old bureaucrats, and old army, and turn them into new yamen, new cadres, and new army unified under the banner of Shu Shizi and the protection of the country and the people. After completing this work, Sichuan will have the conditions to recruit and train more aspiring young people who are willing to devote themselves to the great cause of protecting the country and the people, and continue to enrich themselves in the great cause of protecting the country and the people.

The prince Zhu Pingjin made this important instruction to Sun Hong, the director of the army, and then continued to focus on his great cause of saving his life and raising eggs, leaving Sun Hong messy in the spring breeze.

Sun Hong conscientiously studied and comprehended the important instructions of the leaders, actively publicized and implemented them, and quickly adjusted the distribution plan. However, this new plan is destined to be short-lived. Because the new plan has not yet been reported, the latest instructions from the prince have come again.

This time, 11 new counties were established in northern Sichuan, central Sichuan, and southern Sichuan. To set up a new county, cadres are naturally indispensable, so the distribution plan must be adjusted; However, the speed of his movements can never keep up with the speed of change in his master's thoughts.

The prince met with Zhan Tianyan and Zhu Hualong, and the words under the flower tree made it clear that the prince wanted to play a big game of chess in the Long, Song, and Mao regions. The fall of this chess piece not only changed the balance of military power in the vast northwest region of the Ming Dynasty, but also affected the political balance within the royal officials.

……

After the victory in Guang'an, the Protector Army had entered Bashan. Unification of Sichuan does not seem to be an unattainable dream. Where to go after the unification of Sichuan has recently become a top-secret but open topic among the senior cadres of the royal government.

As the prestige and status of the prince Zhu Pingjin among the Sichuan officials and people grew, these high-ranking officials gradually disagreed on the question of where to go in the future, and formed three main opinions, namely the so-called "eastward advance", "northward march", and "southward march". The people who hold the above three views are also known as the "Jiang School", "Ma School" and "Shanghai School".

The people who held the view of eastward expansion were mainly cadres from Yazhou and clans in Shu, such as Hong Qihui, Cheng Xiangfeng, Cao Santai and others, and the king of Neijiang in the clan.

The cadres who came out of Yazhou believed that they could be in an invincible position by going out of Kuimen in the east, going down the river, occupying the rich Huguang, Jiangxi, and Nanzhi, and by virtue of the danger of the Yangtze River and the wealth of the south of the Yangtze River and competing for the world with Chuang Xian or Tartar.

Zhu Zhiyi, the king of Neijiang, believed that as long as he occupied Nanjing, he would win the absolute qualification to be the great treasure, and this was how Emperor Taizu Gao seized the world back then.

They also believed that the eastward expansion could provide huge investment space for Sichuan's industrial and commercial circles, allow the Shu royal palace, the clan, and the Sichuan gentry to obtain huge wealth, and let the political ideal of protecting the country and the people be wrapped in silver and grain, so as to enhance its appeal and cohesion.

Because the eastward expansion mainly relied on the Yangtze River waterway, the faction that advocated the eastward expansion was called the Jiang faction.

Those who hold the view of going north mainly include the Qin people, the Song brothers, Tian Qian, and Shi Zheng Anmin, the right chief of the royal palace who served as officials in Qin.

They think: Qindi, the people are fierce; The Qin army, the world's strongest soldiers. A handful of rogue people in northern Shaanxi can shake the Ming Dynasty. This has a lot to do with the fact that the Qin people are good at fighting and dying lightly, and Thomas is good at walking.

They also believe that judging from the characteristics of Sichuan's geography and the history of the struggle for Shu land, Shu and Han cannot be separated, and if they want to defend Shu, they must guard Han. Where to attack Shu, there are only two roads, one in the north, that is, Hanzhong and Longyou; The other is in the east, that is, Kuimen.

Qin Di is the lair of the thieves, and the local tyrants who are now ravaging Bashan are the remnants of the Qin thieves. If one of them reoccupies Qin, the Bashan local rioters will inevitably resurrect and pose a mortal threat to Sichuan. Therefore, instead of being forced to raise a large army to fight with Chuang Xian and the local tyrants for Hanzhong and Longyou at that time, it is better to prepare early and occupy the enemy as soon as possible.

Because the northward movement mainly relied on fast-moving cavalry, the faction that advocated the northward movement was called the horse faction.

Those who hold the view of going south mainly include He Youyi and other cadres.

They believe that Qindi is the nest of thieves and thieves, and they have to fight with thieves to the north, which is difficult for Sichuan's manpower and material resources to bear for a long time; Huguang and Nanzhi are not only the wealth of the world, but also one of the political centers of the imperial court, and if they want to encroach on the political and economic interests of the imperial court to the east, they will definitely have a head-on conflict with the imperial court, which will damage the legitimacy and legitimacy of the prince to unify the world.

Not so to the south.

The four provinces of Guizhou, Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guangdong were all barbaric and smoky places in the eyes of the imperial court, and their power was very empty. There is only Muwangfu in Yunnan and Jingjiang Wangfu in Guangxi, and they are all county kings, and there are no palaces in Guangzhou.

The strategic idea of "first south and then north, south and north fighting" has been proved to be correct in Shu, a "Sichuan fills Luzhou", laid the foundation for the victory of the Shu Wangfu layout of the whole Sichuan, if this strategic idea is enlarged to the whole country, then you can quickly seize the benefits of the four provinces, and prepare for the world.

Because He Youyi, who advocates the most resolute southward movement, often has a phrase on his lips called "marching to the sea", the faction that advocates going south calls itself the Shanghai faction.

The dispute between the three factions of Jiang, Ma, and Hai will undoubtedly affect the personnel pattern of the senior cadres of the Shu Prince's Mansion.

Before Sun Hong left the palace of Shishu, he had neither fame nor family background. He knew very well that he was the weakest compared to other high-ranking officials in the royal palace.

The He family is a generational general, and the He family will support half of the sky of the national protection army;

The Shu family is a generation of scholars, and there is a noble prince like Master Shu;

The Gao family is a toast with soldiers, money and territory;

Behind the Hong family and the Cheng family stood the Yazhou gentry, and Yazhou was the wealth of the Shu Palace.

He can't even compare with Zheng Anmin, the Song brothers, and Li Chongwen.

Zheng Anmin is a serious Shu Wangfu right long history, the Song brothers have official status, and even Li Chongwen is famous. And he is just an ordinary scholar with no fame or official status. The son of the world only has kindness to him, and he does not ask for it!

Therefore, Sun Hong cautiously did not belong to any faction, he just firmly acted as the prince faction. When the prince wanted to go east, he immediately cobbled together a regiment of military cadres out of Huguang; The prince wanted to incorporate Zhao Ronggui and Wang Chaoyang, and he immediately deployed a large number of cadres and ate the two departments cleanly.

When the prince wanted to reorganize the Zhuhua Dragon Department and put on a posture of marching to Qin and Long, Sun Hong immediately became keenly aware that while the prince was implementing the strategy of going east and south, he may not have given up the strategy of going north!

Could it be that the strategy of the prince is to attack from three sides?

When the prince announced the dissolution of the meeting, Sun Hong couldn't help but think.

Shizi has always emphasized that things should be focused, so who is the focus of the three strategies?

Sun Hong didn't figure it out for a long time, but he was the smartest person. He knew that as time passed, the true thoughts of the prince would always be revealed. As long as he is still a confidant of the prince, he will always know these secrets as soon as possible. Therefore, his urgent task now is not to be busy figuring out the will of the prince, but to immediately implement the will of the prince!

“…… It is best to rotate the cadres of Songzhou, Maozhou, and Long'an Prefecture on a regular basis, after all, it is a bitter cold place, and the adults and soldiers are indeed living a hard life. Sun Hong sympathetically looked at Zhan Tianyan, Zhu Hualong and the others.

"There are military and civilian cadres who aid the border. When they come, they can replace those who are fortunate enough to rotate. Shizi once said: The way of employing people is that he must have worked hard, worked hard, done good things, and done bad things before he can be of great use. Therefore, for this group of cadres who aid the border areas, there is also the meaning of training and testing. ”

"The son of the world employs people, which is indeed extraordinary!" Liao Daheng sighed and shook his head to help Sun Hong.

"Born noble, it's different from the scholars who came out of such a science field like me! At the age of ten, we are still studying the Four Books and the Five Classics, thinking that one day we will get ahead and glorify our ancestors; And the prince has opened a government and is ready to be the prince of a country. Hey, if you want Shizi to have such ability at such an age, it was also forced out. All things are born without suffering. Even if you are the lord of the country, you can't get rid of this sea of evil, fate! Fate! ”

Liao Daheng once again succeeded in turning a serious work meeting into a relaxed tea party. In Liao Daheng's long sigh, the true purpose of him and Sun Hong was well downplayed, and the plan to aid the border cadres was approved without doubt.

The proposal for regular rotation of cadres even made all the border officers excited. Of course, there are prerequisites for being passed. Both Zhan Tianyan and Zhu Hualong have obtained the right to decide on the specific appointment of these cadres.

It was noon when everything was agreed. According to the practice of the working meal of the Shu Palace, the firehead army of the guard battalion would carry the food burden of the day to the gate of the courtyard at four o'clock in the afternoon, and after being inspected by the eunuchs, it would be distributed to the dining table of the officials. Shizi was not feeling well during this time and did not eat with the officials, but his meal time was the same as that of the officials, and it was also four o'clock in the afternoon.

But it's strange today, it's been a long time since four o'clock in the afternoon, why hasn't the food been delivered yet? Liao Daheng was about to send his men to ask, when he saw the eunuch Zhang Wei hurrying over.

"Liao Fu, Miss Luo suddenly arrived. The prince has gone out to greet ......"

"Miss Luo has arrived?"

Not only Liao Daheng stood up, but also Cheng Xiangfeng, Shu Guoping, Sun Hong and other palace officials stood up.

"Miss Luo has arrived, why don't you call the minister! Hurry up, please lead the way, the old minister doesn't want to be rude! Liao Tycoon hurriedly straightened his clothes and urged repeatedly.

"Could it be that Liao Fu, the governor of a province, is still afraid that she will not be a little girl?" Zhan Tianyan sat and joked about Liao Tycoon. Last month, he was in the Shu Palace, and he only saw Zheng Anmin, the right chief of history. As for Miss Luo, everyone on the streets of Chengdu knew that it was the daughter-in-law of the prince who had never passed through the door, how could he rashly ask to see her?

"Oh, you, Lord Zhan, spend all day being the emperor of the soil in the big ravine, and you don't know the depths of the palace!"

Liao Daheng was so anxious that he stretched out his hand, accurately grabbed Zhan Tianyan's arm hidden in the wide sleeved robe, and dragged him up.

"If you want a field, you want money, you want military salaries, money and food, and you want Miss Luo to nod! Without the consent of Miss Luo, the housekeeper's mother-in-law, the will of the prince may not be useful! Hurry up, don't grind! You all go to worship with your own officials! ”
