Chapter 174: The Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate and the Northern Army Guarding Mansion
After coming out of the queen mother's bedroom, Burhan began to prepare for Zaduro's marriage, because it was necessary to consider that the six Khalkha departments were newly attached to the ten thousand households, and the people's hearts were unstable, and Zaduro was urgently needed to guard it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo everything is simple, Mongolian weddings are still very simple. During this period, Zaduro, a wine gourd, got drunk in order to avoid the tricks of his sister Kuran, but in the end he still couldn't escape. Ku Lang is also yes, she is already a mother of two children, and she doesn't take it seriously at all, and Burhan also turns a blind eye to this.
After Zaduro's wedding, Burhan did not spare much time for their honeymoon. Only three days later, he had to attend the court meeting, because Meng Lik was in a hurry, and it seemed that their small life could only be stable in Orhun.
Although it has been three days since Zaduro's wedding, there is still an endless stream of people who come to congratulate them, and everyone wants to find a reason to get closer to this "prince" if they have something to do. It wasn't until the arrival of the Great Khan Burhan that the people gathered around Zaduro dispersed, and each of them stood in preparation for the morning pilgrimage.
Burhan went to court, without so much red tape, and went straight to the point.
"Today's court meeting is mainly to inform you Aiqing of three things." In the past court meetings of the Great Khan Burhan, the bills needed to be discussed by the ministers, which was not as straightforward as today, and it seemed that the Great Khan wanted to change.
Dugan's brows tightened when he heard this, in the past they could also influence the decision through discussion, but now you only have two choices, either for or against, which is very passive.
Burhan has limited time, in the past, you said a word to me, and a good court meeting was opened into a vegetable market, and Burhan didn't have time to spend a whole day with their mushrooms, so he just wanted to use his high pressure to push the bill.
"That's the first thing. Zaduro, the commander of the Leopard Cavalry, has completed his wedding and will soon go to Orkhun Dai Ben Khan to guard Khalkha, but it may be difficult for the Leopard Cavalry to take on the responsibility alone. Now that the Leopard Cavalry has four battalions under its command, if it is supplemented, I'm afraid the other three generals will also be alive, right? ”
Burhan is right, especially under the premise that the Tiger Cavalry Army and the Wolf Cavalry Army have been reduced by two battalions, and the Leopard Cavalry Army will be expanded, so what do Guo Wei and Batu Bagen think? Kali is also bound to clamored for expansion.
"Therefore, Ben Khan decided to take the Leopard Cavalry Army as the mother base, and formed the Northern Army from the two battalions of the Zhichong Prefecture Army and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion of the Guards to guard the six Khalkha Ten Thousand Households."
As for the formation of the Northern Army, in fact, at the Zaduro wedding, the Queen Mother Yang Caini proposed it. The old man of the Queen Mother can't wait for her son to lead an army of 100,000, so she can rest assured. After all, although the four battalions of the Leopard Cavalry alone are more than enough to deal with a certain Khalkha force, the good tiger can't stand the wolves, and it is reasonable for the Queen Mother to have such concerns.
Seeing that no one objected, then it was happily decided! The others didn't have any ideas, after all, the formation of the Northern Army was not something that they could benefit from, only the Tiger Cavalry Army commanded Batu Bagen and regretted it, but who let himself not be angry?
"Since there is no opinion, then it is decided. Is there any difficulty in folding the government army? ”
The next thing Zaduro has to do is to lead the army from the distance, which requires the cooperation of General Aizen of Zhichong Zhonglang.
"Great Khan! The Lizi Battalion and Qingzi Battalion of the Han Army of the Zhichong Mansion Army are ready and will be launched in a few days! ”
Burhan is very satisfied with this, after all, he has just experienced a truce from the war, and the anti-war cry within the entire Hechiti Department is extremely high.
"The matter about the Northern Army has been decided, let's announce the decree next!"
After Burhan finished speaking, the literary attendant beside him took out a holy decree and read it: "The Great Khan's will!" Hundreds of officials kneel and listen! ”
"The Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate was restored, and Ertai Jimenglik was in charge of the Dadu Protectorate, acting as the administrative power of the six Khalkha departments and ten thousand households, and exercising the responsibility of declaring authority and comforting.
Set up the North Courtyard Town Guard's Mansion. Zaduluo, the commander of the Shousantai Ji Leopard Cavalry Army, was the commander of the Northern Army. Commanding the Leopard Cavalry Army, the Zhichong Mansion Army, the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and the Six Ten Thousand Households Guarding the North Court. The palm comforts the feudal clans, and it is the responsibility of the foreign cowards. ”
What is it? It was so unexpected. The ministers are wondering what the Great Khan is going to do? Burhan explained to them:
"Don't understand? Hehe! The six Khalkha households are located in a remote area, wild and isolated, and sparsely populated. Maybe the population of the common people is not as large as that of the officials! ”
At this point, the ministers all laughed. Indeed, although there are nearly 120,000 people in the six Khalkha households, when they are scattered on the grassland, they are dispensable.
"That being said, after all, it's our territory, our people, and someone has to manage it, right? Although there are six departments and 10,000 households, and each 10,000 households also has its own corresponding governor, it also needs a coordinated organization to manage it in a unified manner. Otherwise, wouldn't they be working in silos? It is also impossible for the central authorities to pay attention to the ministers and officials thousands of miles away from all the time, and it is impossible in the first place in terms of timeliness.
So, it's necessary to set up a metropolitan palace, what do you think? ”
In fact, the "Duhufu" originated from the second year of Emperor Xuandi of the Western Han Dynasty (60 BC) and was not unique to the Hechiti Department, the first time it was located in Wulei in the Western Regions Duhufu, which led the Dawan and the eastern city of Guo Zhuguo, and supervised the nomadic countries such as Wusun and Kangju. The Wei and Western Jin Dynasty had the Western Regions Changshi Mansion, and the Tang Dynasty unified the Western Regions and set up Anxi, Beiting (Jinshan), Kunling, Mengchi and other capitals, which not only included the Western Regions including present-day Xinjiang, but also reached the coast of the Caspian Sea. The Metropolitan Protector's Mansion placed the positions of Metropolitan Protector, Deputy Metropolitan Protector, Changshi, Sima and so on, "in charge of Zhufan, comforting and discussing, and punishing meritorious deeds". It also places records to participate in the military, records affairs, Zhu Cao to participate in the military, and participates in the military, etc., such as the position of the state capital. There are large, upper and middle divisions, and the capital protector is led by the prince Yao, and the deputy capital protector is not placed. Since the fourteenth year of Zhenguan (640), the Anxi Protectorate was established, and the Tang Dynasty ended, and there were changes from time to time.
On that day, Monlik proposed the idea of restoring the Protectorate, and Burhan planned to carry out this evil taste to the end. First, the establishment of the Metropolitan Protectorate is indeed necessary, and secondly, it is also a return for the favor! Burhan flattened the Dugan series at once, and he always gave his brother a sweet date to eat! However, he is still the same old way, "homophony disagrees"! Don't look at it as a big protector, but you can only take charge of the administrative power, and the real power is still in the hands of Zaduluo, just by appeasing the feudal clans and Ning Waikou! These eight words can be seen in general.
Burhan's two younger brothers were installed in Khalkha, one was in charge of the administration and the other was in charge of the military, which shows how much importance he attached to the six Khalkha households? The ministers all know that today's Khalkha Six Ten Thousand Households is equivalent to the forbidden territory of Burhan, and no one wants to get involved, and naturally no one objects, anyway, it is all a family matter.
The resolutions of the Imperial Protectorate and the Northern Army were all passed, and the people awaited the next topic of the Great Khan. I saw that Burhan's face had changed a little, and people speculated that it might be related to the transfer of troops. Whether it is the Beiting Protectorate or the Northern Army Guard, it is the strengthening of the Great Khan's control over the local area, and in terms of the Great Khan's habits, if he wants to change everything, it is impossible to open in only one direction.
Really......
"The events of some time ago made Ben Khan very afraid, and someone was able to coerce the imperial court officials to issue and transfer troops privately. Fortunately, they are only used for smuggling, and if they are used to communicate with foreign enemies, will our Hechi Ti Department still be safe?
This exposes many loopholes in the day-to-day management and dispatch of our military. Also, Cao Lemeng and others were actually able to resell military weapons for huge profits? If this matter hadn't been inspected by the Internal Guard, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been revealed to the world, right? ”
For a long time, the army of the Hechiti tribe was regarded as the private army of Burhan, and he could recruit him whenever he needed it. Although the army is managed by the generals of various ministries, in the final analysis, apart from Burhan, there is no unified organization to manage and constrain it, and corruption in the army is inevitable. The regular army is okay, and the commanders are all close to Burhan, but the thousand households below Burhan dare not guarantee it.
As it turned out, the power of one person was really limited, and it was impossible for Burhan to focus on the army, and he needed an institution to help him manage the army.
The big head is coming! This is what almost all ministers have in their hearts.
Therefore, Ben Khan decided to set up the Military Aircraft Department, which is the highest military institution for organizing army building, garrison deployment, and commanding operations. The Military Aircraft Division is headed by the Minister of Foreman of the Military Aircraft Division, assisted by several Ministers of Military Aircraft (there is no fixed number of Ministers of the Military Aircraft Division, but there are at least five and no more than 13 ministers). In Beijing, the commanders of the major cavalry armies, the main generals of the big battalions, the generals of the Zhichong Prefecture, the secretary of the household department, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the master craftsman of the ordnance supervisor are automatically filled in as the minister of military aircraft. Then select outstanding generals from the front-line army and the China Nasi battalion to fill in the military aircraft counselors and participate in the military. ”
"The current military aircraft department foreman minister is concurrently served by Liu Dingchen, the left minister, the dragon cavalry commander Kali, the tiger cavalry commander Batu Bagen, the wolf cavalry commander Guo Wei, the Naurus battalion Iragon, the Jianrui battalion captain Li Tongfan, Zhichong Zhonglang general indigo, the household department Shangshu Uliji, the Ministry of Rites Shang Saqi, and the ordnance supervisor master Feng Sanhuai as the minister of military aircraft."
When the list of the first Minister of Military Aircraft was released, Dugan almost had a bleeding eye! In the list of ten people, except for Shang Saqi of the Ministry of Rites, no one has anything to do with him. Feng Sanhuai, the general of Zhichong Zhonglang and the master craftsman of the weapons superintendent, was even more despised by him, but he was the minister of the Military Aircraft Department. Dugan said in his heart: Great Khan! You don't have to be so ruthless, do you? The establishment of the Military Aircraft Department completely deprived Dugan and other big nobles of their ability to influence military management and decision-making.
As for the Military Aircraft Division, the ministers, of course, will not object. Regardless of whether Burhan suppressed the Dugan family or not, Burhan had an absolute advantage. Now Dugan is like a commander with a light pole, and the second Ji Monlik doesn't speak, and he naturally pretends to be deaf and dumb, and the two of them have one meaning: hibernation! Everything will wait for Monlik to take over as the protector of the capital.
As for Aditya, the right-hand minister who has been deprived of "military power", does he think that the right to issue a mere transfer of troops is equivalent to obtaining military rights? The reason why the Great Khan wanted to set up the Military Aircraft Department was only to separate the military power from the hands of the prime minister. Don't look at the left minister Liu Dingchen who is now also the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department, it is because the Great Khan Burhan is really unavailable now. He can be sure that if there is a suitable candidate, Liu Dingchen will have to return to his position as left minister, and I am afraid that he will never think of being involved in military affairs again for the rest of his life.
Aditya's analysis, how can Liu Dingchen not know? Just as the Great Khan Burhan had finished announcing, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly......
