Chapter 108: Reorganization of Forces

For a capable person like Xi Zhicai, who takes the initiative to serve, Li Zheng is very open, and he is more trusting and close. So early the next morning, without hesitation, he brought Xi Zhicai to the Shenzhou grassland and showed his heritage!

Whether it was Xun You, Jia Xu, or Xun Yan, or even Xun Shuang, or today's opera Zhicai, no matter how wise their brains were, their thinking was as whimsical as they were, and they were all the same in the face of the existence of the grassland.

It's unbelievable in a trance, and in the end it's the ultimate happiness.

The powerful and incomparable main battle horse, the delicious and nutritious red jade bird, the spiny pig and ginseng wheat, etc., as well as the incredible spiritual transmission, all made Xi Zhicai intoxicated and unable to extricate himself.

For the whole day, Xi Zhicai was in high spirits.

When he saw and learned about this qiē, his mind involuntarily diverged his thoughts. With these magical things, how to use them in the best way to achieve the goal of dominating the world! After all, in Xi Zhicai's view, with the existence of these things, many strategies and tactics are unconventional, and he still needs a certain amount of time to change his inherent thinking.

The arrival of Xi Zhicai made Li Zheng feel that the time was ripe to reorganize the various departments under his command.

After a night of thinking, Li Zheng had a case in his heart, so he called Xun You, Jia Xu, Xun Yan, and Xi Zhicai to his study for discussion the next morning.

Everyone sat down, and Li Zheng said: "Because of the lack of talents before, the director looks a little messy when dealing with all aspects of affairs. Now that Mr. Zhicai has arrived, I feel that it is time to reorganize my forces. ”

When the four of them heard this, their spirits couldn't help but lift up in unison.

"The separation of military and political affairs is the most basic policy." Li Zheng said: "In the future, with the expansion of the territory, officials at all levels such as county guards will also be appointed one after another, but they only have the right to govern, and no longer hold military power. ”

The officials of the county guard level in the Han Dynasty held the military and political power of a county, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they were princes in a certain way. If the court is strong, it doesn't hurt. Once the imperial court can't control the situation, as it is now, the county guards in various places will become the emperor of the soil.

Therefore, at the beginning of the force, Li Zheng had to put an end to this hidden danger.

The county guard only has the right to govern, is subordinate to the civilian officials, and is no longer in charge of the army.

"For the time being, I am going to divide it into three parts. The first is the Military Affairs Yuan, the second is the Government Affairs Yuan, and the Ministry of Intelligence is independent as the third department. ”

"The Military Affairs Yuan has three departments, which are divided into the Operations Department, the General Staff Department, and the Logistics Department."

"The Government Council has six departments, which are divided into the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Taxation, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, and the Ministry of Criminal Law."

"The Ministry of Intelligence has four departments, which are divided into internal and external military and political affairs."

Li Zheng not only divided the three major branches and each main department, but also delineated the general jurisdiction of each department.

For example, in the Third Military Affairs Department, the War Department is not permanent except for the permanent Supreme Commander, that is, Li Zheng himself. Only in wartime, the main generals of the participating regiments temporarily serve as members of the war department.

The General Staff Department should best understand that the head of the army is the highest military division of the three armed forces, and it has three levels of staff divisions under its jurisdiction, and the third-class and second-class military divisions only have the right to build yì, and only when they reach the level of first-class military divisions can they be qualified to be released to directly participate in the war as corps divisions.

The logistics department is mainly responsible for military salaries, grain and grass in wartime and non-wartime.

Among the six ministries of government affairs, the officials department is in charge of the evaluation and promotion of officials, and the officials at the county level and below the county level can make their own decisions. Officials at or above the county level need to report to the head of the Government Council, and even require Li Zheng's personal consent before they can be appointed or dismissed.

The Ministry of Education is in charge of culture, etiquette, education and other matters related to the inheritance of civilization, which is very important in Li Zheng's view.

The Ministry of Taxation is responsible for the collection of taxes from various social groups such as agriculture, industry and commerce.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is in charge of agriculture, animal husbandry, animal husbandry, etc., as well as household registration, land and other affairs. The terms of reference are broad.

The Ministry of Commerce and Industry is in charge of industrial and commercial development, as well as the circulation of money.

The Ministry of Criminal Law has the power to enact relevant laws and regulations, and to enforce them, to combat crime and to impose penalties.

At the beginning of the Fourth Intelligence Department, Li Zheng discussed with Jia Xu and had already set the basic policy. And because of the need for confidentiality, Li Zheng did not explicitly talk about relevant matters here.

The supreme head of the Military Affairs Yuan is naturally Li Zheng himself. The head of the operational department is the commander-in-chief of the three armed services, and Li Zheng himself is still concurrently serving as the commander-in-chief.

The General Staff Department is tentatively divided into three members, the main members are Xi Zhicai, who temporarily represents the military division of the three armed services, as well as Jia Xu and Xun You, who also work part-time in the General Staff Department. After all, the military strategy of these two is not inferior to that of Xi Zhicai, or even stronger. But because the two of them have other important responsibilities, they only work part-time at the general staff. As for the rank of military division, Xi Zhicai has no merits, but he is only a third-class military division, and Jia Xu and Xun You are second-class military divisions. Although Li Zheng felt that they all had the qualifications of first-class military advisors, the rules were the rules, and now that they have been established, they should follow them.

There was no candidate for the head of the logistics department, and Li Zheng only divided Zhao Wu into it and temporarily took over the logistics work.

In addition, in addition to these three departments, the Military Affairs Yuan is also divided into five major army corps, which are divided into the center, east, west, south, and north. However, for the time being, the specifications of the Five Legions and the main generals of the Legion have not been determined.

Li Zheng, the supreme head of the Government Council, served as his own chairman, and Xun You served as his deputy. Of the six ministries, only the Ministry of Civil Affairs temporarily let Xun Yan temporarily act as the minister, the Ministry of Education was headed by Xun Shuang as the minister, Li Boran was the vice minister, and the Ministry of Industry and Commerce had Zhou Lin as the vice minister, and the minister was temporarily absent. As for the rest of the ministries, there are no candidates, and Xun Yu temporarily replaces the functions and powers of each ministry.

The Ministry of Intelligence is naturally headed by Jia Xu.

For a whole day, Li Zheng and Xun You, a total of five people, all spent in the study to negotiate. Eventually, before dark, the rough outline was settled

For being able to serve as the chief officer, Mr. Xun Shuang was very surprised. However, when I thought of what Li Zheng said when I first met Li Zheng, I was relieved. As an elder in the cultural circles, he did take on the important responsibility of spreading Chinese civilization, so he gladly accepted the order and went to his post immediately.

As for Mr. Li Boran, he was also very satisfied. It is impossible to say that there is no idea about the head of the Ministry of Education. But Xun Shuang, the powerful face, Li Boran can only bow to the wind, and it is actually not bad to be a deputy. Besides, he is also the county magistrate of Lingzhou, isn't he?

In fact, it is the drama Zhicai who really ascends to the sky in one step. On the first day, he was just put into service, and the next day he was included in the core team, discussed the management structure, and was appointed as a military division of the three services. Although it is only temporary, it can be seen that Li Zheng attaches great importance to him.

Soon, a qiē stepped into form.

The New Year has passed like this, and seeing the beginning of spring, a qiē is thriving, and the entire Liangzhou has begun to burst out with more intense vitality like a volcano.

When Dong Zhuo dominated the government and poisoned Guanzhong, he made a promise; When the Kwantung princes were in full swing to recruit troops and horses, when their ambitions were shining like stars in the night, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shangyuan Festival, Li Zheng looked to the north after leading his ministers to worship the Taiyi God

In the north of Beidi County, west of the Baishui River, more than 100 miles of Han clan land.

Since the fifth year of Zhongping, Han's bones have not been happy for a few days. Although the original support was given a piece of grassland because of the holding of the Xubu Gudu, but I didn't expect that the Xubu Gushi Shan Yu did not have that long-term blessing, and he died of illness in the middle of last year!

It's okay now, the big backer has fallen, and the Han clan has not yet gained a firm foothold in that grassland, and God knows if it will be coveted by other tribes.

And that's not all. What really bothered him was the Han forces in the south.

At the beginning, he was attacked by the Han people inexplicably, and lost a lot of people and horses, and later retaliated repeatedly, but they were all lost soldiers and generals, and they did not get any benefits, but made their prestige drop a lot.

Especially when the Han forces occupy the Baishui River in front of them, it can be said that there are tigers sleeping soundly on the side of the couch! This sense of crisis makes it difficult for him to be stable all the time.

Also, the news from the Lan clan in the north also made him restless. I heard that the Lan clan is actually raising a new kind of livestock, called a pig. I heard that the meat of this kind of livestock is delicious and tender, and it is very popular with the upper class nobles. What's more, this kind of pig, like cattle, sheep and horses, can be quickly multiplied and grown!

If the Lan clan is allowed to multiply this kind of livestock to a scale, as the neighbor of the Lan clan, how can the Han clan live!? The growth of new species will inevitably impact the old ones.

Cattle, sheep and horses are worthless, and the Han family has to decay.

And as far as the Han family knows, this kind of livestock comes from the Han forces in the south!

Anyway, all in all, the depression in my heart is related to the power of the Han people. He thinks about it all the time, he wants to knock down the Baishui River, but he doesn't know what's going on, the Baishui River turned out to be a flat river, and somehow a mountain range grew, could it be that Changshengtian did it?!

The extremely irritable Han Clan couldn't help but slap the table hard, and he almost jumped up in pain.

At this time, someone outside the tent came to report.

Han's bones hurriedly straightened up and called people in.

"Great Patriarch, a caravan of Han people has arrived in our tribe!"

As soon as these words came out, Han's bones turned over and stood up: "The caravan of the Han people?!" He was full of doubts: "Where did the Han caravan come from?!" ”

"Those Han people claimed to be caravans from Northland County, and asked to meet the Grand Patriarch!"

"Northland County?!" Han's face suddenly deteriorated a lot.

Seeing this, some people who thought they were clever hurriedly said: "Great patriarch, or" said this, and gestured with his palm on his neck.

"Stupid!" When Han Shigu heard this, he couldn't help but curse, glared at the speaker fiercely, and turned his face to the person who reported the news: "You go, bring me the people of the Han caravan!" ”

"Yes!"

In a few moments, a series of footsteps were heard outside the tent, and then three Han Chinese, led by the informant, walked in with their heads held high.

The Han people led by him are no more than seven feet tall, but they stand out among the Huns who are generally only more than six feet tall and less than seven feet tall.

This person is a little bloated and has a chubby face, but isn't it Zhou Lin?!
