After getting the title of the right attendant of the military department and the right servant of the Imperial Palace, Liu Jun became more and more confident. This shows that he was right, the emperor was indeed very satisfied with his performance, and it was not in vain that he gritted his teeth and took out so much silver to give gifts, and for the time being, he was not involved, and some were just praised.

Although the emperor wanted to send five eunuchs to Yunyang at once, even if Liu Jun did not ask for this, Chongzhen would definitely send eunuchs. Although at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, Chongzhen eliminated Wei Zhongxian, but soon, Chongzhen began to reuse eunuchs again, and for more than ten years, he occasionally withdrew the eunuchs who supervised the army, but they were soon restored.

Even Chongzhen once sent the eunuch prime minister and the ministry of industry to take over these two yamen. In the final analysis, Chongzhen actually has an extreme distrust of the minister, perhaps because he has been deceived by Yuan Chonghuan and other ministers too many times. Therefore, even if he favors Liu Jun now, he still sent eunuchs, and one faction sent five.

The only good news is that the governor and governor are divided into five eunuchs, all of whom are Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen's people, with Liu Jun's current relationship with Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen, there is no need to worry too much about these eunuchs, as long as they are willing to come up with some silver, these eunuchs can still be controlled.

Liu Jun is still preoccupied with the matter of rectifying the guard, which is very important to Liu Jun, so that he mainly entrusts the training of the new army to the generals of each battalion.

Yunyang's six battalions of soldiers and horses are all on the track, and they can be trained according to the regulations every day, Liu Jun only needs to stay in the barracks for half a day every day, and then take a class in the martial arts hall every day, and the rest of the time, he is planning with Huang Daozhou and Yang Tinglin about the affairs of the guard.

The other more than a dozen battalions of the new army, and the white pole soldiers recruited by the four thousand stone pillars were trained in Fengjie, and were led by Qin Yimin, the deputy commander-in-chief. The 20,000 new troops recruited in the Qihuang area were trained in Macheng and Qizhou in Huangzhou.

Liu Jun didn't transfer them to Yunyang, it was too time-consuming to travel thousands of miles, so he stayed in place for training. It saves time, and at the same time, it can also suppress the locality, and avoid the burden of military food transfer.

Especially in particular, it won't be long before Liu Jun has to lead his troops to Jiangbei to suppress it.

"I still mean that, arrest all the guards who have found out who have invaded and occupied the military camp and embezzled grains." Huang Daozhou waved his hand angrily and said to Liu Jun and Yang Yanlin, who were meeting together to discuss.

"Wouldn't that be too much?" Yang Tinglin said with some concern.

Liu Jun also nodded, he actively wanted to tidy up the guards and clean up the military camps, not to revive the guards. Instead, he took a fancy to those military cantonment fields and those military households who had long been reduced to officer tenants. If you do such a bold and straightforward investigation, I am afraid that it will definitely cause chaos, but Liu Jun is not afraid of chaos, there are six battalions of soldiers and horses, and a group of guards will not be able to turn the sky.

But he must consider that this rectification is actually a pilot project, which many people are watching, and it will inevitably touch the interests of many people. Any little confusion can be exaggerated. Being used to make a fuss.

"The occupation of the military camp has a long history and is quite common, and in addition, this grain grain is actually not a deficit or two days and embezzlement." Liu Jun spoke. After a pause, "I think so, we don't have to keep staring at the past, what is the purpose of our inventory." It is to change the current situation in the health center. ”

"So I don't think we should be focusing on how to improve the situation rather than holding us accountable."

"That's what you want. Forget about those moths? Zodiac asked.

"It's not just a matter of emphasis." Liu Jun explained carefully, "Let's first find a few officers in the military station who have a bad influence, who usually act as a prestige and occupy more military camps, and who are more harsh to the military households, make their incriminating evidence more detailed and ironclad, and then take down these people, have a public trial, and then put people to death." ”

"Killing chickens and making an example of monkeys?"

"Well, let's get a chicken to kill first, and then we can calm down a little more. If we declare that we will only clear the tuntian fields that have been occupied over the years, and then let them be exempted from the arrears owed to them by their military households, and then let them make up a little of the shortfall of grain and grain, then we will not be responsible for the past. ”

"It's too cheap for them."

"It's all rotten to the roots, and no matter how you check it, it's a mess that you can't figure out. It's better to break it directly, cut through the mess quickly, and cut the past accounts. Starting again, we will re-grant the tun of the guard post that was returned from the Qing Dynasty to the military households in various places, and there is no need to let them defend the city anymore, and the task of defending the city will be handed over to the Yunzhen battalion soldiers, and they will be the tunding who specialize in cultivating land in the future. ”

Liu Jun threw out his plan little by little.

"What about those guards and military attachés? They were all hereditary military attachés. ”

"Assess them, those who are qualified can be selected to serve in the battalions of Yunzhen, and they will be the battalion generals in the future, and those who are not qualified, let them go home, and then sit at home to receive a meal for leisure."

Huang Daozhou asked, "If the military household is changed to tunding, is it according to the household or according to the ding, and how can they pay the grain tax when they produce the output of the tuntian?" What to do with future service? ”

Liu Jun said, "After clearing out the acres of military tun fields, you can grant land to the military households in the guard station according to Ding. Officers can also grant fields, but they can give the same amount as military households, or a little more, but not too much. Half of the grain produced by the military household was turned into a tunding, and half of the grain produced was handed over, and the specific quantity could be set with reference to the average output of the field in the past ten years, and then half of the output was handed over every year, and half was retained in the tunding. ”

"As for the grain handed in, of course, it can no longer be given to the health center, and a new warehouse can be set up and officials can be set up to manage it. Every year, the tunding hands in the grain and finally enters it into the warehouse. The grain in these warehouses is the military rations of 50,000 soldiers and horses in Yunzhen. ”

"Others, such as Yao service, I think they can be the same as ordinary households, and the military households of the families of origin of the Tunding can still be the same."

Liu Jun's plan is tantamount to completely changing the military system of the guard post established by the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, and the guard post will be equivalent to the real extinction, and the officers of the guard post will either be transferred to the battalion or can only eat at home. The military households and Yu Ding of the guard station were all turned into tunding, and they were no longer responsible for the consumption of tuntian, such as the rotation of the Shangjing class, or the division of local cities, and the responsibility of undertaking labor service, their only responsibility was to farm the land, and half of the income from cultivation was handed over every year, and the grain handed over was used as the military food of the soldiers in Yunyang Town.

The battalion soldiers are responsible for fighting and defending the city, and the tunding is dedicated to cultivating the tuntian. The Yunyang town soldiers will completely replace the guards army. Succession to the defense of the castle, etc.

Huang Daozhou thought carefully for a long time, and finally said, "If it can be implemented, this is indeed a good solution." ”

As a matter of fact, the guards have long been abandoned, and military households can only farm for officers or be transferred to serve in some major civil engineering projects, except for the battalions transferred to the interior of the border gates.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, the country gave a large number of fields to the guards, so that the guards could settle their own fields, and then be self-sufficient, and the court did not have to spend food to feed the army The situation has long changed, and now the battalion soldiers of the Ming recruitment system are the soldiers who can fight. Took on the tasks of fighting and guarding the country.

As a result, the guard still occupies a large amount of land in the country, but it can no longer undertake the task of combat defense. However, many of the military households in the guard post were severely oppressed by the officers of the guard station, lost their land, and became impoverished, which became one of the sources of turmoil in the country.

And now, if Liu Jun's new plan can be implemented, then the military households will regain their own land. They can support themselves, and after they have food and clothing, they will naturally not participate in the banditry rebellion. And every year they can also hand in a large amount of food, which can be used as military food for the battalion soldiers. Relieve a lot of burden for the imperial court and the local government.

The military households are good, the imperial court is also good, and the battalions in various places are also benefited, and the only damage to this plan is the hereditary military attachés of the guard. Those who have changed from generals defending their homes and countries to landlords, the fields they have encroached on will be cleared and taken away. They will not only lose the large amount of military land they have occupied, but also the military tenant farmers who could only rely on them in the past and be exploited by them, and even the annual embezzled income of grain grains will also be gone.

"I'll see it!" Yang Tinglin supported Liu Jun's plan. In addition to the damage to the moths, the new plan was beneficial to the imperial court, to the locality, and to the garrison battalions.

"Let's try Yunyangwei first." Huang Daozhou could also see the benefits of this plan, so he reluctantly agreed to let those moths go, not to entangle with them, but to quickly cut down the horses, and to promote reform first.

Yunyang Wei is located in Yunyang Mansion and is the Wei of Guo. In addition to the 5,000 households on the left, middle and right in front and back of Yunyang Wei, there are also two thousand households in Qianshan and 1,000 households in Fangxian County.

There are 5,600 people in Yunyang Weiben, and there are more than 1,000 people in each 1,000 households. Originally, they owned more than 300,000 acres of military tun.

If Yunyangwei can be successfully rectified, he will be able to receive at least 300,000 stone of grain in the next year. With just one health center, there is so much grain to be stored, which is more than many counties can collect. This is also one of the benefits of Tuntian, ordinary private land, one mu is only about three liters, plus some freight, fire consumption, etc., an acre of land is far less than a bucket.

The field of Tuntian is different, the field of Tuntian belongs to the state, and Tunding is equivalent to renting, so it is the rent of the field, and half of the output is directly paid.

In the 10 prefectures and 15 prefectures and 105 counties controlled by the entire Yunyang Prefecture, there are 20 or 30 guards. If all the military cantonments are cleared out, there will be several million mu, and the annual grain cantonment can be handed over several million stones.

It was a very simple arithmetic problem, and Huang Daozhou and Yang Tinglin were excited about it. If you can do it, it will be a great achievement. However, if you want to achieve such a result, it will definitely not be easy, each guard has a large number of officers, which is equivalent to grabbing land and people and money from the hands of the landlords in these armies, but both of them admit death, as long as they are identified, then they have to do it.

At that time, Zhang Juzheng also cleared the land of the whole country and achieved great success in Fujian. Now with the support of the emperor and the support of generals like Liu Jun, who hold heavy troops, Huang Daozhou and Yang Tinglin think that they can do it completely, and whoever dares to stop it will overthrow him.

Liu Jun is even more for the sake of the grain that may be millions of stones that year, facing the thumping of Huang Erren's chest, he and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Yunyang Town under his command will fully support the rectification and clean-up work presided over by Huang Daozhou and Yang Tinglin, and when necessary, the Yunyang battalion soldiers can rush up at any time to quell any rebellion.

With Liu Jun's assurance, Huang Erren's confidence was strengthened.

"What I'm most worried about now is Zhu Dadian!" Yang Tinglin finally said.

"Zhu Futai will hand it over to me, and I will let Zhu Futai support us."

After the discussion, Liu Jun went directly to the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the yamen of the Yunyang Metropolitan Procuratorate, that is, the governor's yamen. The governors of the Ming Dynasty are all attached to the post of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and belong to the Metropolitan Procuratorate system. Therefore, their governor's yamen is often the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Zhu Dadian is also the right deputy of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and now Liu Jun also has the title of the Imperial Inspectorate of the Right Metropolitan Imperial History.

"My lord, Mr. Liu is out asking to see you."

In the official hall, an errand officer reported to him.

Zhu Dadian was thinking about the fact that his master had been going to Beijing for a while, but there was no letter back until now, which made Zhu Dadian a little puzzled.

Hearing the report below, he didn't raise his head, "Mr. Liu, which Mr. Liu?" ”

"Zhennan Hou Liu Zongzhen!"

"Liu Jun?" Zhu Dadian looked up. It's a little strange that this Liu Jun didn't meet him at all during this time, and he couldn't send someone to spread the word, please, and he couldn't invite him. Even when he went to find Liu Jun in person, he couldn't meet anyone. He couldn't find him for official business, and he didn't come to a banquet.

"This Liu Jun, why did he come down at this time?" Zhu Dadian muttered a few words, "Please let him in." ”

When Liu Jun entered the official hall. Zhu Dadian was still sitting behind the table, he didn't even get up, and as if he didn't see Liu Jun come in, he pretended to take a fold and look at it. He was still holding a pen and writing and scratching.

Seeing him like this, Liu Jun was a little amused, he turned his head and waved his hand at the official who brought him in, and then walked straight to the table and chair on the side. Sit down on your own.

Zhu Dadian had actually been paying attention to Liu Jun, and he wanted to deliberately hang Liu Jun for a while, so that this young martial artist would know how to be inferior. Behold. Liu Jun was so unceremonious, he actually walked there and sat down directly, which was as convenient as his own official hall.

"Ahem!" Zhu Dadian pretended to cough twice.

It's a pity that Liu Jun is still sitting there, and he doesn't turn his head around.

At this time, Zhu Dadian was annoyed and coughed twice, but Liu Jun still ignored him.

Zhu Dadian couldn't sit still.

Standing up, he walked out from behind the table, "Ouch, I was dealing with an urgent document just now, and I didn't notice that Jiye had come, and that idiot who didn't have long eyes didn't know how to say anything." ”

Only then did Liu Jun turn his head and stand up.

"It's inevitable that the people below will be negligent, if Master Wei is here, it will definitely not be like this, by the way, why didn't Master Wei see it?"

"Master Wei went out on some errands." Zhu Dadian said casually.

"Really? Where to go on an errand? ”

"I'm going to Xiangyang."

"Went to Xiangyang? But how did I hear Liu Dusi's letter saying that he seemed to have met Master Wei in Jingshi. ”

Zhu Dadian was a little impatient, "Why did General Liu have time to come to my Yamen today, but I couldn't invite him before." ”

Liu Jun turned his head and looked around at the four sides of the official hall, and replied casually, "By the grace of the saint, I added a new title to Liu Mou, no, Liu is now a member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and today I specially came to the Yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to have a look." Zhu Futai, you say, where should I put the table? ”

"What?"

"Hey, that's the case, you see that I'm also a member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate now, this is the yamen of our Yunyang Metropolitan Procuratorate, I think, since I am a member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I should also set up a table here, and when I have time, I can also do an office here."

Zhu Dadian smiled angrily, "The emperor gave you the title of Imperial History?" "This Liu Jun is really lawless, and he really dares to say anything, what qualifications do you have for the title of imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate of the Imperial Palace, you are a general soldier from a martial arts background? I want to set up a table here, but I guess I have hysteria.

"Not exactly."

Liu Jun smiled, "The emperor also added me the title of the right attendant of the military department." ”

"Oh, yes, did the emperor still appoint you as the governor of Yunyang and the commander of military affairs?" Zhu Dadian said mockingly.

"Liu is just a martial artist, and he doesn't dare to have some extravagant hopes." Liu Jun smiled, "If Lord Futai doesn't welcome me to come here to put a table, then I didn't say it." Actually, I'm here today because I have something to give to Lord Futai. ”

Liu Jun took out a book-sized wooden box from his sleeve and handed it to Zhu Dadian.

Zhu Dadian looked at the box in front of him with some surprise, could it be that Liu Jun is here to give gifts?

"What is this?"

Liu Jun smiled, "Didn't I hear that Lord Futai is about to celebrate his sixtieth birthday, how can Liu not give a birthday gift?" ”

Zhu Dadian took it in disbelief, guessing what was in it.

"My lord, wait until I leave, and then open it to watch." Liu Jun said, "Liu still has military affairs in his body, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he will no longer disturb Lord Futai." On the day of Futai's birthday, Liu will definitely come again to celebrate his birthday in person. ”

After speaking, Liu Jun turned around and left directly.

Zhu Dadian stood there with a box and was stunned for a while, "Bahu! ”

But he quickly turned his attention back to the box in his hand, which was so delicately decorated that he didn't know what was inside. Maybe it's a jade ornament or a golden Buddha?

He couldn't wait to open the box, and then saw two folds in the box.

Zhu Dadian frowned, picked up the top one first, opened it and looked at it, and couldn't help but change color. It was actually the impeachment of Liu Jun that he asked Master Wei to bring into Beijing to present to the emperor, and it was all in his handwriting, which was definitely the piece he asked Master Wei to bring to Beijing.

But how did this piece get into Liu Jun's hands, he turned to think that Liu Jun had mentioned Master Wei just now, could it be that Liu Jun grabbed Master Wei and snatched this piece, how dare this martial artist!

Zhu Dadian was very angry, and then he held back his anger, and picked up another fold to open, at a glance, Zhu Dadian was both shocked and angry, and then a boundless fear rose from the bottom of his heart, and the pen on it was all about accepting bribes, corruption, etc. (to be continued) since he became an official (to be continued......
