Hearing this news, Huang Long was very annoyed, Yuan Tao was even more furious, although Tongjiang County is just an ordinary county seat, but it is an important ferry on the Qujiang River, after occupying Tongjiang County and Zengkou County, the local tyrants can only communicate with each other through Nanjiang County, which is further north, and the east-west detour is more than 300 miles, which almost means that it is completely divided in the era of cold weapons by walking.

The local rioters reacted quickly, and Huang Long and Yuan Tao personally led the main force to fight, but they were intercepted by Yang Wei halfway, and they were defeated after a fight.

The volunteers took advantage of the victory to pursue, and the army approached the city of Bazhou, and the morale of the whole army of the local tyrants plummeted, and everyone did not dare to defend the city at all, and finally gave up Nanjiang County, which was hundreds of miles away from the state capital.

After two years, the official army regained the state capital of Bazhou, and everyone was jubilant, and some even thought that the local rioters were not to be feared, and suggested that Yang Lin lead his troops to investigate and completely quell the local riot rebellion.

Seeing that Yang Lin was about to move, Chen Huaixi desperately tightened the reins of the horse and persuaded hard.

Now that the Great Western Army has occupied most of Baoning Mansion and Shunqing Mansion in northern Sichuan, it may lead its troops to attack Pengzhou at any time, and it will inevitably fall into a bitter battle between the north and the south at that time.

In addition, the local tyrants are the same as many rogues, the real combat effectiveness is the main force of each department, although the local tyrants have suffered heavy losses after a few battles, but their main force still exists, if they venture to go deep into the enemy's nest and go deep alone, they will inevitably fall into the encirclement of the local tyrants on all sides.

Yang Lin didn't think about it at first, but thinking of the sports and combat that Liukou was good at, as well as the various military legends he had heard in his previous life, he woke up like a dream, and immediately dismounted and held the opponent's big hand tightly and said: "Blessings and misfortunes depend on them, and misfortunes and blessings lie in wait, so the generals should be cool-headed, especially after a big victory."

On that day, I presented my mentor to Master Chen, and I thought that in order to quell the rebellion of the local rioters, it should be divided into three parts military and seven points political, or in other words, the most fundamental problem should be solved to solve the problem of government apportionment, and the problem of government apportionment should be solved.

I was carried away by victory today, but fortunately Brother Chen reminded me to wake up like a dream. ”

Yang Wei next to him was shocked and asked eagerly: "My lord, the local tyrants have been defeated by our army one after another, and now they are losing their souls, if you give up the great opportunity like this, it will definitely be even more difficult to quell the Yao Huang Rebellion in the future." ”

Smiling, Yang Lin had an idea in his heart, glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone, not to mention that the main force of the local tyrants still exists, is it possible to set up an ambush halfway to defeat our army?"

Just say that even if our army captures Nanjiang County, what will it do? In that case, we will occupy the county seat, and the local tyrants will be reduced to pieces in the countryside, and if we want to completely quell the scourge of the local tyrants, we need to appoint a large army to garrison them, and we need to send troops to suppress the bandits.

Ladies and gentlemen, this Nanjiang County is different from other places, Nanjiang County is located on the Qinling Mountains, and it used to be Hanzhong, not only the territory is vast and the population is scarce, but also there are deep mountains and old forests everywhere, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to exterminate the local tyrants. ”

Xu Kongtu, the former governor of Pengzhou, who came with the army, arched his hand and said: "My lord, the local riots are making trouble and harming the township, even if there are thousands of difficulties and dangers, they must be exterminated." ”

Yang Lin smiled, nodded and said: "Of course we want to exterminate it, this is to go back to what I just said, if you want to quell the Tubaozi Rebellion, you must divide the military into three parts and seven politics in politics, with politics as the main military as the supplement, and you must establish a righteous yamen that is in line with everyone's opinion."

The common people are very simple, what they want is a fair and just way, as long as we really do not indiscriminately apportion, do not indiscriminately levy labor, everyone has something to eat, who in the world is born against the bones, running out to kill people, set fire to and grab food? ”

Xu Kong was puzzled, but the generals who came over hugged their fists and said yes, everyone fell into the grass, mainly just for a bite to eat.

Yang Lin stayed in Bazhou for a few days, sent troops and horses to separate ways to suppress bandits, and he would mainly focus on the formation of the yamen, after a year and a half of practice, Yang Lin had already had experience in the ancient rural local government.

In the past, the government only appointed state and county officials, and local autonomy was not much in the peaceful years, but if there was a shortage of war, it could not be effectively controlled.

The Red Army's strong base was not only obtained because of policy, but also because of the establishment of a solid local government.

Combined with the lessons learned in the past life, the ancient local governance improvement plan has been basically mature after practical verification.

The implementation of Lijia autonomy is carried out by the local people who freely elect the Lijia chief, and the government confirms it.

In order to improve the enthusiasm of the Lijia chief, the government provides economic subsidies to the Lijia chief (1 tael of silver per year, and the first chief is 5 yuan), and the county-wide assessment promotes the Lijia chief with particularly good performance to the local tolerance.

With the bazaar as a unit, the township office is established, which generally includes 1 township chief and 2-5 tolerances (2 tolerances for less than 10,000 people, and 1 tolerance for every 5,000 people).

This is a rural reform, and at present, the main focus is on local public security and tax collection, and it can be said that after a year and a half of practice, it has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and is feasible.

The main purpose of Yang Lin's stay this time is not rural reform, but the reconstruction of the state and county yamen.

Imitated by the imperial court three provinces and six ministries system, the local implementation of the three-class six-room system, after more than a year of operation more and more found the drawbacks, now Yang Lin wants to do the most is to change the local yamen system according to the current mature government model.

In the past, the three classes and six rooms were: the soap class, the strong class, the fast class, the three classes, the six rooms of the officials, the households, the workers, the soldiers, and the six rooms, plus the receiving and sending rooms, the account room, the warehouse, the post house, etc., after more than a year of observation, Yang Lin decided to reform it.

The biggest change is to clarify the responsibility of each room and carry out division of labor and cooperation.

In addition to the six rooms, new tents and transportation rooms have been added, and the biggest change is the tent room.

Like the modern Finance Bureau, the account office is responsible for the management of money and property cashiers, accounts and materials, as well as the collection and management of money and grain taxes in various places, and has become the de facto head of each house.

In the past, the post was mainly responsible for the management of local post stations, and now the post stations are mainly contracted to local squires like modern stations, and the newly established traffic is like the modern transportation bureau, which is mainly responsible for road repair and maintenance work.

The other six rooms are specifically in charge of:

The officer's room, like the current personnel bureau and the personnel department of the enterprise, has not changed much this time, and its management has been expanded from the past to the assessment of the room officials and the tolerances of the townships.

Like the current Propaganda Bureau and the United Front Work Bureau, the ritual room is in charge unchanged, mainly responsible for the management of sacrifices and temples and Taoist temples.

In the past, the household was responsible for tax collection and other work, but after the reform, it was like the modern civil affairs bureau, which was mainly responsible for civil affairs work and the management of land account books in various places.

Like the Economic Bureau of the Hyundai Construction Bureau, the workshop is mainly responsible for the construction of local projects.

The torture chamber is like a modern prosecutor's court, mainly assisting the chief officer in hearing cases, managing the cell, etc.

The barracks are like the modern county armed forces, mainly responsible for recruiting soldiers and horses and training local people.

This is the nominal six rooms in the past, basically changed to eight rooms, relatively speaking, there is little change, the biggest change is the third class.

In the past, the three classes included the soap class, the strong class, and the fast class, but now they have also changed according to the modern model.

The soap class was changed to the county office, which was mainly responsible for the security of the yamen and the internal affairs of the yamen.

Zhuangban was changed to the public security office, which was mainly responsible for guarding the city gate, maintaining local law and order, and registering and managing personnel in the jurisdiction.

Like a modern criminal policeman, the fast shift is mainly responsible for detecting and apprehending criminals.

A county generally appoints two assistant officials, such as the county governor, the county officer, and the chief officer, who are responsible for the division of labor and governance.

After the reform, the county yamen transitioned from three classes and six rooms to two rooms and eight rooms to meet the management requirements of population management, local public security (overall planning of the public security office, combined with the main focus of the local township office), and tax collection (account management, household management, land registration, plus local township office).

Of course, this is not the most perfect governance structure, and now the county yamen structure does not include education, and it is not a day's work to change the ancient education structure.

During his stay in Bazhou, gentry from all over the country met one after another. After hearing that the official army was defeated by the local tyrants, Tang Jietai, a famous man in Dazhou, came to rescue the soldiers with his eldest son Tang Zhen.

Tang Jietai was initially bent on begging for help, but after he was not allowed, he actually knelt in front of the state government for two hours, allowing Yang Lin to spend half a day talking, so that he was a little relieved.

Yang Lin is like this, it is really that this Tang Jietai is too famous, and his ancestor is the "first emperor" Tang Yu (the teacher of the Ming Dynasty Emperor Zhu Di, the ancestor of Shu), and now it is the eleventh generation.

In addition to Tang Jietai, the more famous is Ouyang Zhi, who was raised in Sichuan in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, and then has been studying at Jinjiang Academy, and has a friendship with Yang Lindang.

Talking about passing by in the Great Western Army, Ouyang Zhi sighed with emotion, and sometimes secretly shed tears.

It turned out that when Ma Yuanli, the governor of the left army of the Great Western Army, occupied Guang'an, Ouyang Zhi was captured by him and could not move freely.

Originally thought that he would be trapped in the enemy camp like this, and there would be no peace forever, so he took advantage of the chaos to escape from Shunqing City two days ago, and fled to Yang Lin's tent.

Looking at the people who came to vote one by one, and seeing everyone's eager eyes, Yang Lin was also quite emotional, after more than a year of hard work, it seems that he has gained a firm foothold in this troubled world.

Yang Lin originally wanted to stay in Bazhou for a few more days, but when he heard that Huanglong had sent an envoy to Baoning Mansion to meet Zhang Nengqi, the general of the Great Western Expedition to the North, coupled with the fear that the Pengzhou garrison was few and the place was unstable, Yang Lin hurriedly left Bazhou and returned to Pengzhou ten days after occupying Bazhou.

Xu Kongtu was appointed as the governor of Bazhou, and Tang Jietai was appointed as the general judge of Dazhou, so as to assist Liao Qifang, Yang Bingyi and others in maintaining the matter of suppressing bandits in Bazhou.

When leaving Bazhou, the Volunteer Army expanded again, and the 6th Division was newly established, and Jing Keqin, a Yao Huang general who was born as a local tyrant, was appointed as the deputy general.
