Chapter 161: Three Stations and Eight Divisions

Sure enough, what Qian Zhou said was right, all the news he said fell into Liu Chen's ears in less than an hour. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Hearing Qian Zhou's insinuating accusations, Liu Chen scoffed, and only a good person like Qian Zhou would think of the world so openly.

This is the thinking of Confucianism, and it is also the shortcoming of Confucianism.

Blindly demanding that everyone worship books and respect Confucianism, blindly preaching the creation theory of sages, in an attempt to turn this world into the legendary "Datong".

Thinking of this, Liu Chen couldn't help but think of one person, that is, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who kept shouting "Depose the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone".

I think that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also used Confucianism to govern the country, but the situation in the later dynasty was turbulent, and the uprising ignited everywhere.

That is, the embroidered clothes are pointed directly.

It was the oldest intelligence service, the same as the modern Krupp, but at that time the power of the Jiji was much greater, and those people killed people without blinking, not only frantically and bloodily suppressed the uprising, but also cut off the heads of many officials.

Judging from this incident, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who kept shouting about Confucianism and Taoism, was just a Legalist emperor dressed in the cloak of Confucianism, which also proved the inadequacy of Confucian governance.

Therefore, Liu Chen didn't care too much about Qian Zhou's words, but quietly found Zhuge Pan after dinner to discuss the specific matters of this restructuring drafting.

"Your Highness, this restructuring was proposed by you, and the minister admires your unique strategy tightly, and the outline of this restructuring is still for Your Highness's instructions!" ā€

I have to say that Zhuge Pan is a smart person, although he is also good at learning, and he has a deep understanding of the restructuring proposed by Liu Chen, but really speaking, Liu Chen is still his teacher, and it is really not suitable for the class to get an axe at this time.

Zhuge Pan's wisdom Liu Chen did not doubt it at all, and the time was pressing, so he was not polite, so he drew it on the thick paper.

"The meaning of loneliness is to have equal power in three, which are called Shangshutai, Zhongshutai, and Yushitai, and are in charge of drafting and writing, reviewing serious matters, issuing edicts, and so on......"

Hearing Liu Chen say this, Zhuge Pan was a little confused, Rao was he had already guessed that His Highness's thinking was a little jumpy, and he couldn't keep up at this time.

"Your Highness, you also know that in all the processes, it is the most important to be responsible for the implementation of the important decrees of the state, and the power is also the greatest.

Hearing this question, Liu Chen's thinking froze, he knew that Shangshu Province was the most powerful in the Tang Dynasty, but according to his thoughts, he hoped that there would be three peers, not one in order.

"The meaning of loneliness is to hope that the three stations will be evenly governed, and there will be no arbitrariness of the prime minister, or the meaning of the Shangshutai family is dominant, so there is no plan to rank and order."

Hearing this, Zhuge Pan was a little embarrassed, after all, what he does is different, people will be different invisibly, this may be a category, it may be a level, so it seems very difficult to completely eliminate a monopoly.

"Your Highness, the three cannot be absolutely equalized, can the purpose of control be achieved by strengthening the rights of the monarch?"

Hearing this, Liu Chen's eyes lit up, after all, he is not a successful politician, and some of them are more learned theories, and there are many problems that he himself can't understand.

But when he heard this, a certain thought opened in his heart, and he felt that this plan was feasible, so he agreed.

"Yes, then all major political affairs must be interrogated by the monarch, otherwise they will not take effect!"

This problem was solved, and then Liu Chen said another consideration of his own:

"The structure of Lone Hope is that there are eight departments under the three stations, namely the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Engineering, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Finance.

Hearing these words, Zhuge Pan was quite calm, but after listening to all the words, he couldn't help asking:

"The other departments are fine, but what is the function of the school department and the finance department?"

Liu Chen knew that he wanted to ask this question, so he didn't hesitate, and talked about it directly:

"The school department, as the name suggests, is in charge of national education matters, as well as the function of holding imperial examinations, and after the reunification of the country, it will also implement national universal education, so its existence is absolutely valuable.

As for the Ministry of Finance, it is already responsible for measuring the revenue and expenditure of the state, calculating the cost of national projects, and most importantly, it is also responsible for measuring the income of hundreds of officials, taxing the storefronts of past shops across the country, and so on. ā€

Hearing this, Rao is Zhuge Pan had already been suspicious, and he couldn't help but be applauded by Liu Chen's superb thinking, his face was respectful, and he said sincerely:

"Your Highness's ambition in the world, Ziyun admires and worships Ziyun!"

Then, the two discussed it in detail, of course, it was more Zhuge Pan, Liu Chen added, after all, the big framework Liu Chen had already given, and the things inside needed to be filled in by the people below.

During this period, the second major thing Liu Chen did was to form an alliance.

With Liu Chan's acquiescence and Liu Chen's assignment, Taichang Jiang Xianzhi sent an envoy to Jiangling to sign a peace alliance treaty on behalf of Liu Chen.

This can be said to be a long drought for Sun Hao, who has just ascended to the throne and has no merits, so he readily agreed and gave full authority to let Sun Xiu, the governor of Jiangling, come forward to sign.

The treaty stipulates that the Han and Wu countries will stop military confrontation in Xiangyang, Fuling, Badong and other places, and unless there are special circumstances, they must not increase their troops without reason, otherwise it will be regarded as a unilateral provocation of the alliance.

In the end, Jiang Xian and Sun Xiu swore to the heavenly alliance on behalf of the two countries, and then issued a document to announce to the world, describing the feat of this era.

In order to show his sincerity, Liu Chen moved the 5,000 strong troops of Badong Baidi City to the north to camp in Fancheng and confront the Jin State, while the defenders of Fuling retreated fifty miles to open discussions.

Then, Wu Guo, who accepted Liu Chen's kindness, drew 8,000 troops from Yiling, Wuling and Jiangling, and went east to Yangzhou by boat to join the battle of Shouchun.

At this time, Shouchun City was covered with black blood, apparently left behind not long ago, indicating that there was a shocking battle here not long before.

Although the weather was still a little cold in early spring, Lu Kai did not stay in the big tent of the barracks, but stood on the watchtower to observe the movements of the Shouchun defenders in the encirclement.

"Hey! The war lasted for two months, although the soldiers forced Shouchun City, but in the middle of winter and fought hard for half a month, the royal division who was placed on His Majesty's high hopes was also powerless, and now the emperor's ambition died before he was paid, the court situation alternated, and the national foundation was unstable......"

Watching the mist slowly rise in the distance, Lu Kai's mood was also like a heavy shroud, and he couldn't be happy and light.

It wasn't until I received a tip about Gangneung that I learned that 8,000 strong troops were coming to help, and I was relieved.

"Liu Chen is extremely insidious, you can see his means from the snatching of Xiangyang, at this time it is the time when Wu is in turmoil, how kind is Liu Chen really had?"

Lu Kang was seriously wiping a sword, although there was no trace of dust on it, he was still rubbing his head, but his thoughts were drifting into the distance.

And in Luodu, because Liu Chen stopped his movements, the Shouchun defense battle successfully kept the city, and he was in a good mood, and hurriedly recalled Jia Chong to discuss the matter.

"Gonglu, Yuan Kai, at this time, the war in the Western Capital has been decided, and Deng Ai will not set off a war for the time being, so you will wait for the 50,000 troops brought from Chang'an, and then give you 30,000 new troops to mix, 20,000 strong horses, integrated into an army of 80,000 horses, completely reach the southeast war, and then turn around to solve the weak Shu."

Hearing this, Jia Chong didn't have much thought, he was only good at greeting, not a matter of national war strategy.

And Du Yu on the side is different, he is the original actual commander-in-chief of Wu extermination, not only is he quite good at fighting, but his strategy is not bad.

"Your Majesty, in the opinion of the minister, now that the two armies of Wu will join Shouchun, and the new death of the Wu lord, the army will definitely be unstable, as long as two partial divisions are sent to take Lujiang and Guangling two counties, guard the fortress and dangerous places, block the retreat of the defeated army of Wu State, and then use the main army and the Shouchun defenders to attack inside and outside, they will definitely be able to relieve the siege of Yangzhou, and go further, but the army can force Jianye!"

Hearing this, Sima Zhao's eyes lit up, and then he said suspiciously:

"Yuan Kai's plan is naturally feasible, but if Shu and Wu make peace, there will be reinforcements in the southwest to the east, what should this army on the water do?"

Hearing this question, Du Yu was not surprised at all, looked at the large silk map hanging behind the head, and pointed:

"Your Majesty, please see, my Jin army still has tens of thousands of defenders in Nanyang, although Yang Sima was defeated, but there are many good generals under his command, advancing from the north of Jiangxia, and then ask Huainan Yang Shuzi to take action, there are less than 10,000 soldiers, so don't worry!"

Yang Shuzi is Yanghu, very famous in this era, at this time he is in Huainan, and there is no war in Huainan.

After listening to Du Pre's analysis, Sima Zhao was immediately overjoyed, got up and waved his sleeves and said:

"Okay, since Yuan Kai is so confident, how about you as the deputy this time?"

Hearing this, Jia Chong was taken aback and hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, no, the old minister is not good at military affairs, and he is not as good as General Yuan Kai, so it is quite uncomfortable to let the old minister command him, it is better to let him be in command, I believe that he can solve the southeast war with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai."

Although Sima Zhao favored Jia Chong and also had a good understanding of his talents, when he saw Jia Chong's resignation at this time, he didn't think he was angry, and said happily:

"Well, since the prime minister recommended it, then Yuan Kai should encourage his loyalty, work hard to fight this battle, and play the prestige of my great Jin!"

In addition, to the north of Beidi County, the Great Wall of Shangjun is located, which is an excellent barrier for the Wei and Jin dynasties to resist the Southern Xiongnu.

But at this time, somewhere thirty miles north of the Great Wall, dozens of unkempt men with extremely thin and disheveled clothes cut into messy black stripes were lying on the green grass that had just risen, looking at the light in the sky, and suddenly there was a kind of joy that came from bitterness.

Zhong Hui's eyes were deep-set, his forehead bone was protruding, and his eyes were as red as charcoal, covered with hideous bloodshots.

Call!

It's finally out, and now that we're safe, we'll never have to live this day of exile and precariousness anymore!

It is no wonder that they are so excited, because the Great Wall is an easy barrier to defend and difficult to attack, and it is as difficult as a day for their tired army, and they can pass through it with all their might, and it is reasonable to be so happy at this time.

But there is a word called happiness and sorrow, and sure enough, just as they shouted with joy, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, like thunder rolling through the sky, shocking people's hearts.

"It's a Hun tribe iron horse, what should I do?"
