In the past, a county only had a few high-grade officials in the county order, and the other clerks were all officials, and the system of separating officials led to the fact that there was no room for officials to rise at all, and no matter how good they did, there was no possibility of promotion, so they relied exclusively on corruption to make money. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info and officials will be transferred after serving for three years, and they will often be transferred before they are familiar with the county government affairs, which also causes local government affairs to be controlled by officials.

Ren Siqi decided to change all this within the Chongming system, first of all, to promote all Cao officials and the like to high-grade officials, called the principal, and the grades ranged from the ninth rank to the seventh grade. And if you do a good job, you can continue to rise, and it is possible to be promoted to the prefect of the county. There is room and possibility for everyone to rise, and this system is certainly much better than the separation of officials.

After appointing officials at all levels, everything on Chongming Island can be considered stable, and all matters such as the organization and resettlement of immigrants in the future will be responsible for a special person, and there is no need for Ren Siqi to worry about it anymore.

Professional things are handed over to professional people to do, and even if the Yangzhou officials who followed were greedy, they were much stronger than Ren Siqi's original subordinates in terms of administrative ability.

He led the people to build homes, cleared wasteland around the tidal flats, went out to sea to fish, and so on. The reeds on the island are endless, and as long as they are harvested and weaved, and then stakes are made with wooden sticks, a simple shack can be built without fear of summer wind and rain. A large amount of daily necessities from Yangzhou were distributed to families, and soon the island was full of cooking smoke, and hundreds of new villages appeared.

In the past month, in addition to building a new city, Liang Jiu and his people have also built two barrage dams, so that the tide can no longer directly impact the island, causing the collapse of the sand island. In addition, several huge brick kilns were built to burn bricks and tiles for building houses. However, the current production is limited, and it cannot meet the demand on the island for the time being.

After the newly established Chongming Mansion, Liang Jiu was appointed as the director of Chongming Gongcao, and was an official of Zhengqipin, fully responsible for the construction of the project on the island. Liang Jiu is planning to dig several artificial rivers to bring water from the Yangtze River into the island, so that it can be used to transport materials by boat and irrigated farmland.

After the resettlement work became regular, Ren Siqi began to reorganize the army.

In the battle of Yangzhou, although the Daishan army achieved a great victory, and the total number of soldiers of the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion who died under the city of Yangzhou was thirty or forty thousand, the Daishan army itself suffered great losses. Almost half of the 10,000 infantry were lost, and more than 5,000 people returned to Chongming Island alive, of which hundreds were seriously wounded, and even if they recovered later, they could not go back to the battlefield. For these people who had to retire from the army, Ren Siqi arranged a way out for them, that is, to serve as township lieutenants in various townships, responsible for assisting the township to arrest bandits and maintain local law and order.

In the recruitment of new soldiers, Ren Siqi decided to adopt a compulsory military system, and every adult man between 18 and 40 must serve as a soldier. There were nearly 200,000 people who followed the island, including 30,000 or 40,000 men of working age, and of course it was impossible for Ren Siqi to integrate all men into the army, but stipulated that at least one person from each household should join the army. The other men were organized into village soldiers, trained for several days a month, farmed and worked on weekdays, and when there was an invasion from other places, they were all recruited into the army to defend Chongming. Weekday training can be carried out by the village lieutenants, and the government allocates a certain amount of funds every month.

After several days of recruitment, 15,000 new recruits were recruited, mixed with the original 5,000 veterans, and a 20,000-strong infantry was reorganized.

The establishment of the army is still in accordance with the original small flag, general flag, team, and battalion organization. The whole army was divided into four towns, and two new towns were added on the basis of Jin Yufei's one town and two towns, and the towns will be served by Liu Zhaoji and Ma Yingkui, who have joined the new ranks. These two have been the deputy generals of the general army for many years, and they are far better than others in terms of experience in leading troops. The original subordinates of the two were all disorganized and reorganized.

The first town is the town of Konowei, the town general Jin Yufei, and the four battalions are Xiong Er, Li Xingjiu, Tony, and the German Duncan.

Ren Xingfan, the general of the second town, and the four battalion officers under him are Chen Mingyang, Yang Bin, Li Ding, and Li Baldzi. Yang Bin is the head of the Daishan Army's spearmanship, and he was promoted to the right point. Li Ding is the son of Li Shiyuan in Qingzhou and is very brave in battle. Li Bald was Ke Yongsheng's subordinate who originally occupied Jiaozhou, and he became the general banner because of his meritorious achievements in Ke Yongsheng, and he was promoted all the way to become a battalion.

Liu Zhaoji, the general of the third town, and the four battalion officers under his command were Sha Qianli, Ren Qiuli, Luo Shaoxin and Deng Wanmu. Luo Deng and Deng were both Liu Zhaoji's original subordinates.

Ma Yingkui, the general of the fourth town, and the four battalion officers under his command are Ren Baoquan, He Bin, Zhang Chi, and Lin Guangtou. Ren Baoquan is Ren Siqi's cousin, He Bin is a Han who came back from Luzon, and Zhang Chi and Lin Guangtou are both old brothers on the original Fuchun.

In the army, there are also military supervisors, team supervisors, battalion supervisors, and town supervisors. The supervising army does not interfere in the command, training, and operations of the troops, but is only responsible for the rewards and punishments of logistics in peacetime, and is at the same level as the commander-in-chief of the army. It was Ren Siqi who borrowed from the political commissar system of later generations, so as to ensure that the army was completely loyal to himself.

Ren Likun served as the supervisor of the first town, Ren Xuetang, the supervisor of the second town, Chen Sheng, the supervisor of the third town, and Ma Liang, the supervisor of the fourth town. Judging from this appointment, there is a strong Ren family army, except for Ma Liang, who is a scholar recruited from Jiaozhou, Chen Sheng is an old brother from Luzon, and the other two are Ren Siqi's relatives. As for the supervision of the battalion, most of them were recruited from Jiaodong. When they first entered Daishan, in order to get a higher salary, many scholars chose to join the army and passed the training. The reason why the combat effectiveness of the Daishan Army was formed so quickly was due to the contributions of these people.

While rebuilding the infantry army of the four towns, Ren Siqi also reorganized the naval army.

The four towns of the navy were also established, with a total of 30,000 people, in addition to the original 10,000 sailors, the newly recruited boatmen from Zhenjiang were integrated.

In order to distinguish itself from the infantry army, the naval town will become the commander.

Mao 18, the commander of the First Town Water Army, controlled more than 30 three-masted sea ships and more than 200 flat-bottomed sand ships of the "Princess" and "Flying Fish", with more than 10,000 sailors under his command, stationed in Chongming, responsible for the defense of Chongming Island and the battle with the Qing army's naval division.

Sima Nan, the commander of the Second Town Naval Army, had more than 30 three-masted ships and more than 2,000 soldiers, who were specifically responsible for foreign trade.

The commander of the Third Town Navy Army, Olier, was stationed in Daishan, with more than 30 three-masted ships, more than 100 two-masted ships, and 5,000 soldiers, responsible for the defense of Cen Gang and other places on Jintang Island in Daishan.

Xue Yulai, the commander of the Fourth Town Water Army, was stationed in Chongming, with more than 1,000 river boats and more than 13,000 soldiers. Although there are many ships in number, the combat effectiveness is the worst in the town.

In this way, there are 50,000 troops reorganized, but unfortunately, if we talk about combat effectiveness, only more than 10,000 veterans have a certain combat effectiveness. (To be continued.) )
