Chapter 233 The Eldest Son of Shu (1)

Tian Qian returned to Chengdu and rushed to Anyue County overnight with several of his students. There is no leadership organization that can restore order, and large-scale civil unrest can occur at any time. Tian Qian took control of the local situation, and He Qiukou's army could use this to grow and develop, and free up his hands to divert the main force in other directions.

Zheng Anmin, Shu Guoping and Yin Jialin caught Zhu Pingjin and went to the royal tomb to inspect the left guards. Song Zhenzong had nothing to do in Chengdu, and had already gone to manipulate his soldiers in advance. On the way, the three of them reported the situation of the rectification of the left guards to the truth, and what Yin Jialin was worried about did not happen. Far from criticizing the left guard, the prince praised the progress of the left guard.

"The soldiers are fine, not many! It's right to be strict with recruitment! More than 2,000 households of the Left Guard Army signed up to join the caravan, which shows that they are still loyal! Zhu Pingjin concluded to the three of them, "It's very good to be able to select 1,500 people!" ”

Yin Jialin wanted to speak and stopped: "What the prince said is extremely true! Just ......"

Zheng Anmin said with a smile: "General Yin doesn't have to worry, just make it clear to the prince if you have something." The prince is not a faint king who can't listen to advice. If something is wrong and the right thing is wrong, the son of the world will have to play the board! ”

Zheng Anmin warned Yin Jialin in the open, but in fact, he filmed Zhu Pingjin's ass, and he also made Zhu Pingjin comfortable.

The imperial court's decision to punish the murder of the king of Shu may soon come. Zheng Anmin has made it clear to Zhu Pingjin that if the imperial court approves his resignation or demotes him to exile, he will give up his official body and enter the palace.

Zheng Anmin's purification in his statement was not a eunuch, but that he was determined to go to the dark with Zhu Pingjian.

Because of this, Zhu Pingjin was relieved to hand over the rectification of the left guard to Zheng Anmin. Instead of being like in the past, you must be yourself, or send Luo Jingyun and Sun Hong to watch and guard. The General Staff Department is in charge of the mobilization of the army and supervises the personnel of the army, while the Song brothers and other leading officers at all levels are in charge of the army's peacetime training and battlefield command, the Firearms Bureau and other arsenals are in charge of the army's equipment, and their wives are in charge of the army's food and salary.

Zheng Anmin forced Yin Jialin into a corner, and Yin Jialin had to say:

"There are still a few things that are not clear in the last general, please show the prince.

First, there are many people who have no land and few fields among the sergeants. They all waited for the prince to divide the five acres of land so that their families could cultivate them!

Second, according to the rules of the caravan, a caravan guard, in addition to military salaries, must also subsidize two buckets of food per month. When will this grain be delivered?

Third, the left guard is a personal soldier of the palace for generations, and when he joins the caravan, he will naturally follow the rules of the caravan, and those who have not been selected for the caravan will be ......

The fugitive sergeants of Chengdu Wuwei did not dare to rashly collect them, and first sent them to the county village protection team for training. But the generals of the guards didn't know how to get the news, and they had already sent someone to the left guard to ask the guilt. ”

Yin Jialin said a lot of things, mainly about treatment.

Before Yin Jialin's words fell, Zhu Pingjin already understood that Yin Jialin must have been entrusted by the old employees of the Wang Enterprise to explore the resettlement plan here. The rectification of the left guards this time was extremely smooth, none of them were killed, none of them were closed, and the expected prison was not prosperous. This is due to Shu Guoping's previous relationship with the Zuo Guards, and it is also the credit of Yin Jialin, Wu Yuankang and other hereditary officers who led by example and patiently persuaded them. Yin Jialin inquired on behalf of others, Yin Jialin's face is small, and the reform of the left guard is big, Zhu Pingjin cannot avoid it, and must give a clear answer.

"General Yin's meaning, this son already knows." Zhu Pingjin replied calmly, "This time the son of this world came to the meeting to end this matter!" ”

The hills ahead are undulating. On the top of the mound is the city wall of the tomb of the king of Shu, and the tombs of the kings of Shu in the past dynasties are in it (Note 1). Each mausoleum is a relatively independent area, with the Shinto of the first generation of Shu King Shu Xianwang Zhu Chun as the central axis, and it is arranged on both sides in turn, forming a roughly symmetrical pattern.

In front of the city gate at the entrance of the royal tomb, there is a huge stone plaque, and the red letters on it clearly warn the people who enter by mistake:

Hurting a tree, a tree and a grass in the royal tomb, and even taking a piece of soil (POU) is a crime of rebellion!

Zhu Pingjin led everyone and got off the horse silently, first bowed on all sides, confessed to the ancestors in the mausoleum, and then remounted the horse and went to the city gate.

In the Wangling District, horses are not allowed to gallop, only dismount and walk. But since it is used as a military training area, how can it not be riding? Zhu Pingjin prayed in his heart that there is a spirit in the ground of the ancestors, and he will know that the descendants are hardworking!

The mausoleum area is large-scale, with undulating mountains and towering ancient trees, deep and quiet. People who are not familiar with the roads can quickly get lost. Yin Jialin took the lead, took Zhu Pingjin and his party out of the main road, and turned into a fork in the road in front of the left. Then a few more forks in the road entered, and there was a col with a flat area in the col.

Zhu Pingjin's eyes suddenly brightened.

This is the perfect place to train!

……

Zuo Wei is the eldest son of the Shu Kingdom. How to properly solve the long-term accumulated problems in the eldest son of the Shu Kingdom, Zhu Pingjin has been thinking about it for a long time. He has also taken action one after another, promulgating a number of policies and measures.

First time in Tianquan. Song Zhensi suggested that some palace guards should be selected to go to Bifeng Gorge for training, and after completing the training, they should be supplemented to the caravan to solve the shortage of officers in the caravan. Song Zhensi's suggestion is essentially a prison guard stealing, and his son digging Lao Tzu's wall. Zhu Pingjin gladly accepted it, and as a result, a group of cadres were created. Through the Bifeng Gorge training, these guards have all become the backbone of the caravan and the village. Liu Lianpeng, deputy commander of the second battalion of the caravan, and Tao Xiansheng, acting captain of the Hanzhou Huzhuang Brigade of the caravan, were the leaders of this group of officers. Lin Yan, the newly promoted commander of the first company of the third battalion of the caravan, was probably the slowest promoted officer among them.

The second time was during the plague in early July. The incident of Tirenmen leaving his post prompted Zhu Pingjin to make up his mind to solve the chronic illness of the left guard. Soon after, 63 hereditary officers and more than 190 general flags, small flags, and soldiers secretly participated in the reorganization of Songlin Mountain, and these officers and soldiers were combined with Tian Qian's 35 students to form two cadet companies for intensive training.

In order to ensure the effectiveness of the intensive training, Zhu Pingjin set an elimination target for the cadet company, and designated Song Zhensi and Yin Jialin of the first cadet company to report. The establishment of the first company of cadets includes two officer platoons and two sergeant platoons, all of which are old men on the left guard, and it is not good to cut either one.

The targets set by Keshizi must be met. Song Zhensi and Yin Jialin, the two responsible persons, couldn't, so they had to pull down their faces and train hard, and first brushed down several soldiers with unqualified physical fitness, and the soldiers who were brushed down were transferred to logistics by the prince.

Song Yin and the others were rejected in disguise, and they understood the true intention of the prince: to brush a person with a head and face to come down and show it to the left guard and the whole army. As a result, Feng Ruhu's younger brother Feng Rubiao was eliminated.

The three brothers of the Feng family were among the best in training, but the poor was military discipline. The three brothers were accustomed to big fish and meat at home, and they couldn't adapt to the hard barracks food. On a dark and windy night, someone sneaked into the kitchen and stole a braised pig's head and a jar of wine. The next day, the kitchen burglary was reported to Shiko. The prince instructed a strict investigation, and the Feng brothers had no choice but to take the initiative to find their eldest brother Yin Jialin to confess. Fortunately, there is only one indicator, and in the end, Yin Jialin and the three brothers combined, and the third Feng Rubiao came out to top the cylinder.

In front of the queue of the two cadet companies, the third elder of the Feng family, who was in tears, was deprived of the hereditary military position of the left guard and the qualification to train cadets in Songlin Mountain, and immediately rolled up the cover and got out.

Feng Rubiao's public dismissal shocked the officers and soldiers participating in the training of the left guard, and also shocked the officers and soldiers of the two teams in Shangzhuang. The results of the training camp made Zhu Pingjin very satisfied. The majority of officers and soldiers gritted their teeth and persevered to the end in the face of intense training. Those who are indeed unqualified due to physical fitness reasons have also been transferred to logistics work, and there are also manpower needed there anyway.

It's no more than three. The current reform of the Left Guard will be a comprehensive reform that will hurt the muscles and bones. Through comprehensive reform, we will thoroughly eliminate the shortcomings accumulated by the Left Guards for many years. Using the Chengdu Left Guard, a gold-lettered signboard of the imperial court's economic system, a powerful strategic reserve was trained for the palace and even Shudi. According to the structure of the left guard, the full number of people can reach 5,600. That is, the equivalent of seven battalions or two regiments of caravans.

This number of soldiers is too much, and Zhu Pingjin can't use it up for the time being.

……

According to the Ming ritual system, six kinds of stone beasts are set on both sides of the Shinto Road in front of the emperor's tomb, lions, lin, elephants, camels, hedgehogs, horses, and civil and military stone statues; After the stone statue, it is the pool in front of the mausoleum. There is a stone arch bridge over the pool; After crossing the bridge, it is the square in front of the mausoleum, which means the Ming Hall, and then it is the main gate tower of the emperor's mausoleum. There is a square courtyard at the main entrance, which has a large hall for sacrifice and a side hall, and behind the courtyard is the treasure top and the underground palace below.

The specifications of the mausoleum of the king of the Ming Dynasty are naturally inferior to the Son of Heaven, but the shape is almost the same.

Zheng Anmin, as the head of the civil officials of the Shu Palace, is very familiar with the etiquette system. The prince agreed to his suggestion to use the royal tomb as a cover to train the troops, but he might not tolerate the big head soldiers singing and dancing on the heads of the ancestors of the Zhu family. In the future, the prince will settle accounts after the autumn, and he, the initiator, will not escape the involvement.

Therefore, after discussing with Shu Guoping, Yin Jialin and others, he very cautiously chose to train the troops in a place far away from any royal tomb. This was originally the barracks of the officers and soldiers guarding the mausoleum. The barracks are complete and the playground is large. Plans are being implemented for the construction of new barracks, and at least 5,000 men and horses will be guaranteed when they are fully completed by the end of the year.

After this period of trampling, the lush grass on the playground in the middle has been gone, turning into a bare mud field. Seeing Shizi stopping in front of the playground to watch around, Zheng Anmin guessed his intentions and hurriedly stepped forward to report:

In order to prevent the soldiers from stealing the treasures of the royal tomb and damaging the feng shui of the royal tomb, they have set up a cordon on the periphery of the training office to strictly control the unauthorized entry and exit of the soldiers; The 1st Battalion, 2nd Company, and 3rd Company of the Caravan have been dispersed to the periphery of the mausoleum area and the guards of various royal tombs, and the eunuchs guarding the mausoleum have also mobilized to strengthen their night guards and patrols. As for the trees needed to build the barracks, they had to be cut down at the training area......

Of course, trees must be cut down to build a house, and of course the soil must be leveled to build a playground. It is clearly unreasonable to let others do things without allowing others to make mistakes.

Unreasonable people are hooligans.

As long as the royal tomb is not burned, so that Zhu Pingjin will not be able to step down in front of the Shu clan, Zhu Pingjin can tolerate any mistakes of the cadres.

dispelled Zheng Anmin's hidden worries, Zhu Pingjin asked Yin Jialin:

"Has the meeting arrived? Where is it now? ”

Yin Jialin hurriedly replied that he had arrived yesterday. Only Yu Ruzhen, the acting commander of the original left guard, was missing. After receiving the notice, he sent a message back, saying that he was now on an errand in the machine bureau on the order of the prince, and he was so busy that he had no time to travel twenty miles to the royal tomb for a meeting.

The meeting is ordered, and the errand in the machine bureau is also ordered. Yu Ruzhen is a smart person and chooses the best execution.

The royal palace and the second and third divisions of the palace held Yu Ruzhen as the commander of the left guard, and sent it to the Beijing division together with the funeral excerpt of the king of Shushu. Soon after, the decree came, and Yu Ruzhen was promoted from acting conductor to full conductor.

The word "formal" is very embarrassing. Obviously, Zhu Pingjin did not allow Yu Ruzhen to meddle in the affairs of Weizhong, but he still had to sign and draw a charge for the matters of the left guard. Now he refuses to participate in the meeting to show his obedience to the new job, which not only gets rid of his own embarrassment, but also gives his son room to play freely.

Zhu Pingjin smiled and did not speak.

Zheng Anmin, Shu Guoping, and Yin Jialin all thought that Yu Ruzhen's non-attendance was due to political reasons, but only Zhu Pingjin knew that Yu Ruzhen was telling the truth.

Threshing machines and centrifugal fans have just been introduced to the market, and the subsequent development of new products is immediately in full swing. There are many urgently needed agricultural machinery, such as pumping machines, rice hulling machines and hydraulic flour grinding machines, all of which have been developed from scratch. Next is textile machinery such as spinning machines and looms. When Yu Ruzhen successfully completes these R&D tasks, Zhu Pingjin will put a new burden on him. Zhu Pingjin has a lot of things in his head, not to mention one Yu Ruzhen, even if there are 10,000 Yu Ruzhen, it is impossible to complete the research and development tasks given by Zhu Pingjian.

Seeing the prince looking around, Yin Jialin tried to ask, "The military order is forbidden." The prince arrived in casual clothes, and the generals did not receive military orders and never greeted them from afar. Can participants come to the shrine? ”

At this time, Zhu Pingjin saw several people standing in a military posture not far from the playground, and one of them had a face as if he was looking in a mirror by himself.

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Pingjin said.

Note 1: According to historical records such as "The Unification Chronicles of the Ming Dynasty", the tombs of King Shu Xian and King Shu are in Tianhui Mountain in the north of the city, that is, near Tianhui Town, Xindu District, Chengdu today. Xiangmu estimates that it is not far from the once famous unfinished golden villa. The rest of the Shu vassal kings and county kings have their own burial places. Therefore, the tombs of the Shu kings in the Ming Dynasty were not concentrated in Changping like the Ming Tombs in Beijing. Shiling Town, in the eastern suburbs of Chengdu, is a place where the tombs of the Ming Dynasty are relatively concentrated. As the name suggests, there are ten royal tombs there. Xiangmu once entered the underground palace with a flashlight and lay down on the coffin bed.

The plot needs it, and it has been changed here. Similar situations will not be explained one by one.
