264, military affairs and general service (I)

"The officials of the court are nervous now, and they can't send people over, so please work more if you can! If you can't do it, what's the use of raising you? ā€

Jingwen wrote a letter to Emperor Li Shimin, wanting to ask Li Shimin to send a few subordinate officials to help him deal with affairs. But Emperor Li Shimin also gave such a sentence, which immediately made Jingwen understand Li Shimin's intentions. Li Shimin wanted to resign on his own initiative, so he didn't send someone over. And if Jingwen can't do it, isn't it justifiable to remove Jingwen from his position? When the time comes, Jingwen will go back to where he came from, and he will be a courtier.

"If I go back like this, where will I put my face? Since you won't send it to me, I'll just find someone myself. Jingwen scolded secretly.

Jingwen immediately found Liu Renliang, as well as Feng Yong and some people, planning to have something to tell them.

"Brother Liu, now that the emperor doesn't plan to send his subordinates to me, then I'll recruit some staff myself." Jingwen said.

Liu Renliang didn't feel any surprises, because many officials in charge of the party would recruit some staff. As for these staff, their status is high and low, some are recognized by the imperial court, and some have actual official positions. However, some of them are recruited by the officials themselves, and they all take a part of their own income to those staff members to help them deal with some things. And Jingwen is currently a leader of tens of thousands of people, so he should naturally be qualified to recruit his own staff. Therefore, Liu Renliang did not stop it.

"Jingwen Jiedu envoy, what kind of staff are you going to recruit?" Liu Renliang asked.

According to ancient practice, in fact, many officials are not proficient in any routine affairs, and many professional affairs are not proficient in officials. If you let a person who can only read four books and five classics, but only know those literary scholars, practice agriculture, this is obviously impossible. At this time, it is necessary to recruit some "experts" to deal with it, take charge of the construction, and help carry out professional affairs. In ancient times, staff members were generally more professional. So Liu Renliang took the initiative to ask Jingwen what type of staff he wanted to recruit.

"First of all, I intend to have my staff set up three agencies. They are the Military Affairs Office, the General Affairs Office, and the Service Office. ā€

"The Military Affairs Department, responsible for all military affairs. There are five sections under the Military Affairs Department, namely, the Operational Planning Section, the Timing and Location Section, the Inspection and Drill Section, the Command and Mobilization Section, and finally the Military Affairs Intelligence Section. And the section below. It's some clerks, we can call them staff officers. As the name suggests, the Operations Planning Section is responsible for formulating operational plans, and this section needs to recruit people who have strong military knowledge and are familiar with the art of war. The time and place are responsible for weather forecasting, as well as geographical surveying and mapping, and make a map sand table for the main general to help the main general be responsible for terrain problems. Long-term experience in weather observation is required. For example, many old farmers can be recruited. There are also those who are familiar with drawing and can draw maps. As for the inspection and drill section, it is responsible for training soldiers and being responsible for the army's soldiers. There is also housekeeping such as the roster of soldiers. This department needs some people who can be familiar with the training and can handle things carefully. The Command Mobilization Section is responsible for conveying orders and mobilizing personnel. This department can recruit some people with good memory and strong organizational and management skills. As for the final military intelligence section, it is necessary to recruit some people who can analyze the situation on the front line. To the Lord will present information to the person who built yƬ. ā€

"As for the General Affairs Department, it is mainly responsible for some internal affairs of the army, and it is also divided into five sections. They are the Officer Selection Section, the Propaganda and Education Section, the Military Law Enforcement Section, the Internal Affairs Security Section, and finally the Military and Political Communication Section. The officer selection section, that is, assisting the chief officer to select subordinate officers, and then reporting to the imperial court in the name of the chief officer, requesting the imperial court to appoint. It's best to choose some people who can know people in this department, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to open this one, so you can take a look at it when the time comes. The Propaganda and Education Section is responsible for the propaganda and education work of soldiers, so that soldiers can understand the idea of loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, and serving the country and the people. If necessary, soldiers can also be organized to learn literacy, learn culture. As for the Military Law Enforcement Section, it is best to choose some upright people, because this is to enforce military law. The Internal Security Section, which is responsible for the protection of our senior officers, and the vetting of some of the people who are about to take up important positions to avoid mistakes in the officer selection section, can complement each other. People in this department need to be able to observe carefully and be able to spot problems. The Military-Political Communication Section is responsible for communicating with the civilian government in our military and in order to avoid conflicts between the military and the government. People in this department need to be able to speak well and understand things. ā€

"Finally, there is the service department, which is mainly responsible for some logistics affairs, and there are still five sections. They are the money, food, ordnance department, civil engineering barracks department, medicine and health department, internal service department, and finally the transportation department. The Money, Food, and Ordnance Section is responsible for all kinds of money, food, and ordnance affairs, which is the most important. This requires people who are proficient in arithmetic to be competent, so I will invite some bookkeepers to come over. If you need to, you can get a few from Uchiko's accounting firm. The Civil Barracks Section is responsible for civil construction, as well as barracks construction, and finally the paving of roads, and various civil construction issues. You can ask Lord Warden about this, he is an expert in this area. The Department of Medicine and Health is responsible for the needs of the military's medical care. Some doctors can be invited, especially those in the trauma department. The internal service section is responsible for the management of services. This unit is responsible for arranging different units to carry out duties, such as arranging rotational units to be responsible for cleaning toilets, cleaning the barracks, and organizing the firehead army to be responsible for cooking fires and various miscellaneous affairs. Finally, the transportation section is responsible for the planning of transporting materials to the rear of the army in the future, and organizes the transportation of materials by manpower. ā€

Jingwen introduced these three places, and Liu Renliang was taken aback. These are simply classified to the extreme, and they are simply set up in another institution. And this set of institutions may be used as an official office, and I am afraid that the official government of the imperial court does not have such a sophisticated structure now. If there is one word to describe it, it is the word "precision". This is like a precision machine, each with its own division of labor, and it can make the whole army look like a precision machine. Liu Renliang knew that if these institutions could operate perfectly, the army would burst out with strong combat effectiveness! (To be continued......)
