"Dare to ask Your Highness, what is the position of this governor, why hasn't the old man heard of it?" Gao Miao stroked his gray beard and asked with a puzzled expression. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Governor, this is an official position set up by myself, the position is above the history of the assassin, and I am responsible for inspecting the military and civil affairs of various places." Yang Wu said with a smile.

The position of governor first appeared in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, but at the beginning, the governor was only a temporary dispatch, responsible for supervising taxes and grains, prime ministers, governing the displaced people, rectifying border passes, etc., and later became gradually biased towards the military, and formed a system, becoming a local magistrate above the three divisions.

In fact, according to Yang Wu's original intention, he was reluctant to set up a governor at this time, after all, Huainan is now so big, and the Jiedu Mansion can be completely managed, and there is no need to set up a higher administrative level above the state.

Later, Yang Xingmi specially told him that although the separation of military and government must be implemented, those assassins must be appeased, they are all heroes who follow Yang Xingmi to fight the world, and these heroes cannot be cold.

Yang Wu naturally knew that these meritorious veterans were the biggest supporters of Huainan, even if they had to be guarded against, they couldn't do too much. Therefore, he is ready to add some honorary titles to these generals who served as assassins, and just add more rewards.

As a result, Yang Xingmi said that it was okay for others to appease them like that, but with the qualifications and prestige of Liu Wei and Tao Ya, they couldn't be rewarded so hastily. Moreover, these two people, as benchmark figures in the history of assassination, if they are handled well, the separation of military and political affairs will almost be completed; On the other hand, if it is not handled well, then there will definitely be twists and turns in the future.

Yang Wu considered that these two people had done a good job in governing the place, and it would be difficult to do better even if they were to change civilian officials; And the two of them are not bad at leading troops to fight, and more importantly, both of them are not ambitious, and they are extremely loyal to Yang Xingmi, so Yang Wu finally decided to let them serve as governors.

Of course, this governor is not the military governor of later generations, but similar to the early governor, who focuses on civil affairs and has the right to intervene in the military, but it is limited to the state soldiers of each state, and the army stationed in the local town is not subject to the governor's control, but is directly ordered to the palace of Wu Wangfu. The so-called governor interrogates the military, in fact, it is mainly to take care of the rear and transport grain and grass for the foreign town army when they go out on the expedition.

Therefore, although the governor is also above the history of the assassin and can intervene in the military and civil affairs in the jurisdiction, the power of the governor is much smaller than that of the jiedu envoy; The Jiedu envoy has complete control over the locality, holding all the power of the military, politics, and finance, as well as the direct appointment power of the officials below, and is completely the emperor of the land, and the power of the governor is naturally incomparable.

Even compared with today's state assassins, the governor's control over the local area is much smaller, after all, the previous assassin history has the right to directly appoint officials at lower levels, but the governor cannot appoint the assassin history, and the assassin history is also directly ordered by the Wu Wangfu, so although the governor can command the assassin history, he is also constrained by the assassin history to a certain extent.

After listening to Yang Wu's explanation, Gao Miao and the others were thoughtful.

Just when everyone wanted to continue to ask some questions, Fan Yu, who was in charge of intelligence, suddenly came in and reported: "Shizi, there is good news, Liu Wei, the assassin of Luzhou, has written a letter to request the separation of military and political affairs, and he also said that he is not good at leading troops, and hopes to resign from the military and become in charge of civil affairs." As soon as our people got the news, they sent it back, and as for Liu Yuanjun's recital, it was expected that it would not be long before they arrived in Guangling. ”

Yang Wu was overjoyed when he heard this, he was still talking about him just now, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to write so soon, this is the first assassination history after Xu Wen, Li Chengsi, and Li Shenfu to write and resign, and his prestige in various assassination histories is very deep, and his initiative to resign is of great significance.

Yang Wu knew that Liu Wei had served as the assassin of Luzhou for many years, and he had deep roots in the local area, so he had more interests involved; In contrast, Xu Wen and the other three have served as assassins, and they are not deeply involved in the local area, so they don't have much interest, so they are naturally more cheerful when they resign.

However, now that Liu Wei has taken the initiative to resign, it means that the assassins in various places have already known the determination of the Wu Wangfu to implement the separation of military and government, although Yang Xingmi's father and son have not directly ordered, but there are some things that they take the initiative to do and passively do under the order, and the effect is naturally different.

"Where is my father now? Are you still in Chuzhou or have you already set off for Luzhou? Thinking of Yang Xingmi's itinerary that he learned not long ago, Yang Wu hurriedly asked.

"The king is still in Chuzhou, and it should take two days before he leaves."

"Still in Luzhou? That means that Liu Wei decided to go to school before his father arrived in Luzhou? Yang Wu nodded, and continued to ask, "Then what is the attitude of Wang An, the assassin of Chuzhou?" ”

"There is no news from the king of Chuzhou yet, but his subordinates heard that he talked very happily with the king, and his attitude should also be in favor of the separation of military and government." Fan Yu said.

Yang Wu nodded, Wang An was Yang Xingmi's personal guard at the beginning, not only was he calm and magnanimous, but also extremely loyal to Yang Xingmi. He hasn't been an assassin for a long time, and if Yang Xingmi comes out in person, there is no problem on Wang An's side.

Sure enough, two days later, when Yang Xingmi left Chuzhou and continued to Luzhou, Wang An's recital was also submitted, with a similar meaning to Liu Wei's, but he didn't want to be a civilian, but asked to be a leading general and make meritorious contributions.

With Liu Wei and Wang An taking the lead, the other assassin histories also knew by this time that the separation of military and political was a foregone conclusion, and it was impossible for them to integrate the military and the government as before. Therefore, in the following period of time, Li Yu of Changzhou Assassin, Li Jian of Huzhou Assassin, Taimeng of Xuanzhou, Tao Ya of Shezhou, and Liu Cun of Shuzhou all wrote letters one after another, requesting the separation of military and government, and either asked to resign from the military to be in charge of civil affairs, or resigned from the position of Assassin Shi and became a complete general.

At this time, there was no movement, and only Liu Jin and Gwangju were reused.

Yang Wu knew that Gwangju and Haozhou seemed to be Yan Keqiu, and they would not accept the arrangement of the Jiedu Embassy so easily, maybe a new war was about to break out again, but he didn't know whether it was in Haozhou or Gwangju, or that there were wars breaking out in both places.

However, although there may be turmoil in these two places, the time is ripe for the official announcement of the separation of military and government, and if we wait any longer, I am afraid that Zhu Quanzhong has completely defeated Wang Shifan.

Therefore, by the end of July, when the selection of soldiers for the new army was basically completed, Yang Wu announced the list of generals at all levels, including the reorganization of the army, as well as the adjustments made to the assassination history in various places, and officially announced the separation of military and political affairs.
