After nearly a month of continuous busyness, the two counties of Dunhuang and Jiuquan finally completed the dictation of the fields. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The 600,000 common people have their own land and are excitedly looking forward to the arrival of spring, when they will sow the seeds of hope.

Looking at the household registration information in front of him, Wei Shuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, this is much more down-to-earth than the marriage with the Guo family, with the support of the common people, who occupy more than ninety percent, even if the family is unwilling, what can he do?

"I finally completed the dictation of the field, and this matter was successfully completed, thanks to the efforts of Duan and Song, and your help is also indispensable."

"Today, while everyone is here, Shuo would like to express my gratitude to everyone and salute you with this glass of wine."

After saying that, Wei Shuo saluted all around, and then drank it all, and the staff and subordinates on both sides raised their wine glasses to accompany each other when they saw this.

After drinking, he put down the wine, and Wei Shuo sat on the main seat.

Below are the civil and military ministers on both sides: on the left is the civil and military staff headed by Song Xuan; On the right are generals at all levels headed by Du Jin.

Looking at the gathering of his subordinates, Wei Shuo couldn't help but feel a little proud, so he said with great ambition: "Everyone, winning half of Hexi is a key step taken by Shuo since Gaochang raised his army. ”

"But this does not mean that you can sit back and relax in the future, and you can rest on the credit book and eat the old book."

"Don't forget, there is still Lu Guang in the east."

"Further east and south, there are still Western Qin, Later Qin, Later Yan, Northern Wei, Zhai Wei, Western Yan, etc., and countless separatist forces."

"Only by eliminating them all can we return the people of the world to a prosperous future."

"The ministers are willing to swear to follow the lord to make meritorious deeds and assist the lord to unify the world."

"Good! I have your help, so why worry about big things? Here, please have another drink. ”

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the atmosphere of the banquet became increasingly noisy.

Wei Shuo tilted his head to the left side of Song Xuan, and said with a smile: "Tiye, come, I'll have a drink with you." ”

"Speaking of which, thanks to the fact that the sports industry was not too small in Gaochang Temple at the beginning, and I assisted me wholeheartedly, so that we have today's foundation."

"The lord has a good reputation, but the minister has just done his duty, and he deserves your praise." Song Miao hurriedly raised his glass in response.

"It's not clear when it's not right? Noise, drink! ”

Wei Shuo couldn't help but say that he gave Song Xuan a glass, and seeing this scene, many people at the banquet stared at Song Miao with envy. But everyone can only envy it, and no one can say that it is not. Song Miao is different from them, they defected to Wei Shuo when he was the weakest, and he is a confidant who has really endured hardships together.

"Dare to ask the lord, now that the general trend in Hexi is settled, should we start to rectify the soldiers and horses next?"

"Yes, those who know me are also physical! With the end of the dictation of the field, the reorganization of the army has been put on the agenda. ”

"A few days ago, Shuo discussed this matter with Master Du, and I haven't talked about it with everyone yet."

"I would like to hear the lord's opinion." Song Miao asked for advice.

"The Xiang army is a professional soldier, and his combat effectiveness is high only because of his good salary and professional training."

"However, the formation of too many Xiang troops will increase the financial burden, and it is still difficult to raise 24,000 Xiang troops with the wealth of Gaochang."

"I'm afraid that the destruction of Hexi alone is not enough to support tens of thousands of military expenditures, at least not at present."

The Lord is right, and it is. Now that the economy and people's livelihood of the two counties in Hexi have been greatly damaged, not to mention paying money in a short period of time, I am afraid that we will have to rely on Gaochang to provide relief. Reckless military expansion can only drag down economic recovery and affect people's livelihood. ”

"Exactly!" Regarding Song Xuan's judgment, Wei Shuo thought so.

"But at the moment, Hexi is facing a huge threat, forcing us to expand the number of troops."

"After careful consideration and discussion with Du Shi, Shuo plans to set up the Zhichong Mansion in the two counties of Hexi to defend the place."

"Folding Mansion? What is Origami? Song Miao wondered why his father-in-law always came up with a few new terms from time to time.

"Zhechongfu is the name of the military government of the grass-roots organization of the government and the military system, which is divided into upper, middle and lower levels."

"There are 1,200 people in the upper government (increased to 1,500 in special circumstances), 1,000 people in the middle government, and 800 people in the lower government.

"Each prefecture shall have one lieutenant, as well as a number of other generals, soldiers, and superintendents, to maintain its operation."

"On top of the Zhichong Prefecture, there is a county garrison office and a state governor's office, which is responsible for managing the Zhichong Prefecture under its jurisdiction."

"Except for the commanders, garrisons, and governors, the rest of the county commanders, taishou, and assassins have no right to mobilize and hold accountable government soldiers."

"In the future, Hexi will implement a policy of completely separating civil and military affairs, and civil servants are not allowed to interfere in any military affairs, and military generals have no right to interfere in local government affairs."

"Those who violate this order will be severely punished."

Listening to Wei Shuo's detailed description of the organizational structure of the government soldiers at all levels, Song Miao fell into deep thought, and soon guessed the deep meaning.

Wei Shuo took the opportunity of preparing for the establishment of the Zhechong Mansion to put forward the idea of separating the military from the government, obviously to prevent the future from being overwhelmed.

"The lord's move should set a hundred-year plan for the future."

"The sports industry has won awards, I dare not say that I will set a hundred-year plan, fifty years is enough!"

"As long as the Juntian system is not destroyed, the government military system will not collapse."

"With the government soldiers as a reserve force, the Xiang army can be replenished in time once it is lost, so as to maintain its combat effectiveness from declining."

"Moreover, the government soldiers are a combination of soldiers and farmers, and there is no need for the government to bear additional costs, which greatly reduces the cost of raising soldiers."

Hearing this, Song Miao couldn't help but nod in agreement, and the more he pondered, the more he felt that the government was a good system.

Especially when he linked the Junda system with it, he felt that the two complemented each other perfectly.

"How many Zhechong mansions does the lord want to build?"

"According to preliminary statistics, at least 20 Zhechong Prefectures must be set up in Dunhuang and Jiuquan counties, with a total of about 20,000 soldiers, to protect this vast area in Hexi."

"The Yumen Pass in the west and the newly built Jiayuguan (located at the west foot of Jiayuyuan) are the most important folding houses on the east and west sides."

"Needless to say, the importance of Yumen Pass is needless to say, and Xinjiayuguan is located at the junction of the central and western parts of the Hexi Corridor (west-central)."

"It is connected to Jiuquan in the east, Yumen in the west, Montenegro in the back, and Qilian in the south, occupying the throat of Hexi - the western foot of Jiayuyuan."

"With this Xiongguan, and then echoing with the Yumen Pass in the west, it will firmly control the land under your feet."

"Even if the enemy breaks through any pass of Yumen Pass or Jiayu Pass in the future, we can still retreat to another pass and continue to defend it with danger."

At this moment, the rest of the staff also noticed Wei and Song, who were whispering.

Among them, Zhang Zhan also joked: "What are the lords and Song Changshi talking about confidential matters?" I wonder if it's convenient to inform the ministers? ”

"Okay, you Zhongxuan, when are you afraid to hear it?"

"It's just that I just talked about business with the sports industry, and I was a little fascinated for a while, so I neglected everyone, please don't blame you."

"The business is important, how dare the ministers blame?" Naturally, everyone didn't even dare to say it.

However, Wei Shuo still took the opportunity to make his words clear, otherwise it would be bad if someone misunderstood.

He coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention, and then said loudly: "Originally, this matter should not be said until tomorrow's deliberations, but if you don't think about it, you can't stop it." Since everything has been said, Shuo will not hide it, just say it and let everyone discuss it first. ”

Everyone held their breath and waited for Wei Shuo to uncover the mystery.

They were also very curious about what Wei Shuo had just talked about with Song Xuan, which made Song Xuan look quite excited.

"As you all know, with the continuous implementation of the Juntian system and the three-long system, local government affairs have gradually become regular, but the reorganization of the army has not yet begun."

"In order to free up the Xiang army to conquer the Quartet, Shuo plans to build Zhechong Mansions in various places and form government soldiers."

"In the future, the duty of the government soldiers is to garrison dangerous passes and maintain local law and order. The Xiang army was responsible for the rebellion and the foreign enemy. ”

Then Wei Shuo took the trouble to introduce to everyone what the government military system was, and sure enough, after everyone listened, they looked at Wei Shuo with the same expression as Song Xuan, and their eyes were full of admiration and admiration.
