Chapter 1 Beijing Left-behind Division

In the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu, spring came belatedly.

Today, the city of Beijing is very different.

In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, the city of Beijing has only completed the part of the city wall, the part of the city gate, the part of the road, and the sewer. and so on. In the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh years of Hongwu, the entire project has been completed.

Not only that, but the palace and government palace were completed. More than 80 percent of the dwellings in the city have been built.

The reason why this is the case, He Xi presided over the construction work, there is no doubt. But it is more the dividends brought by Beijing's industry and commerce that support the entire city of Beijing. Although there are some corners of the city of Beijing, there are still many places that look very deserted. But on the whole, it is not inferior to many large cities in the north.

This alone is amazing to the people of the world.

The saint gathers in one year, becomes a city in two years, and becomes Chengdu in three years, which was originally an exaggeration. Now it seems that He Xi's methods are not inferior to the ancient saints.

And this spring is also a very important year for Beijing.

Prior to this, many of the city's functions were not functioning. Now the Beijing Left-behind Division is no longer an empty shelf. He Xi, who stayed in Beijing, has long held the power of Beijing. But the major national events are in the worship of Rong.

As for Rong, the Beijing Left-behind Mansion has annexed the Mansion of the General of Zhengbei. He controlled the military power of the entire northern border defense line such as Monan, Liaodong, Shaanxi, Goryeo, etc.

In the past, these powers were all held in the name of the general, or the general of Zhengbei.

Under He Xi's dismissal, the Beijing Left-behind Division was established to control the military and political power. In addition, the Houjun Governor's Office, one of the five military governors' offices, was moved from Nanjing to Beijing, and the Houjun Governor's Office, an institution that controlled the northern frontier defense, set up the Beijing Military Department to control the logistics power and restrict the Houjun Governor's Office.

In the later Ming Dynasty, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was an ornament. But now in the Ming Dynasty, it is not, the five armies of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies are not imaginary, but really divide the world into five parts, that is, the five armies.

The entire system of the guards, from the guards to the capital, from the capitals to the front, back, center, left and right, the five armies of the governor's office, forming a complete set of military system.

A considerable part of the guards under the jurisdiction of the Houjun Governor's Office were in the north, so after the adjustment, the Houjun Governor's Office became the highest military institution in the north. In the future, there will be no more generals to control these armies.

Instead, it fused the general's line with the rear military governor's office. From a war system, to a peacetime system.

Although it is said that if a certain general is set up to control the military power in the north, Nanjing will not be at ease. However, there is no harm in changing to the current system. That is, the Governor of the Houjun Governor's Office, the authority is left behind by Beijing, and when it comes to war, it is natural that there will be things such as insensitive reactions.

Even so, the governor of the Houjun army is still Shen Guogong Deng Zhen. But Deng Zhen's power became He Xi's subordinate.

This made Deng Zhen a little worried.

However, there is still a slight change in the whole system. That is Beijing Jingying.

When it comes to the system of the Beijing camp, it is necessary to explain what is going on with the military system of the Ming army. The Beijing camp of the Ming army is divided into two parts, one part is the Jingwei, the emperor's personal guard, these guards are near the Beijing division, and the entire guard is among the Beijing camps.

And the other part is the squad army.

That is, the best of the military in the local guard stations were selected, and a part of the army was selected to serve in the Beijing division. Generally, it is changed once a year, and this kind of system was also available in the Tang Dynasty.

The difference between Beijing Jingying and Nanjing Jingying today is that. Nanjing's Jingying is a lot of Jingwei, these Jingwei are the descendants of Zhu Yuanzhang's army who fought with Zhu Yuanzhang, and they were placed near Nanjing, as mentioned above, Zhu Yuanzhang was not generally good to Nanjing, and even the people near Nanjing, it was simply unheard of taxes for 30 years.

Jingwei is naturally also taking care of it.

Beijing is different.

Many health centers near Beijing were converted into state-run construction houses by He Xi. When the Beijing camp was formed, Deng Zhen meant to move a few guards from all over the country, like Nanjing. But He Xi denied it.

Rather, it established the squad army

Mainly for the capital camp.

The reason why this is so is that He Xi has two ideas.

First, soldiers are not much more expensive.

Now, although the army of the Ming Dynasty is a little inferior to the strong soldiers who have just fought the founding battle. But officers at all levels have also experienced the Great War, so to speak, almost all of them have seen blood. There are more than 100 health centers in Yanbian, and there are about 100,000 people.

These 100,000 people are definitely the first elite of the Ming Dynasty.

The second is to disrupt the network.

The squad army is the elite selected by each guard station, and a certain chief officer, commander, and commander of the guard post are brought to the Beijing division. and the princes and uncles were in charge respectively. Achieve the separation of soldiers and generals. The training is the training of the guard, and the command of the war is the command of the prince.

This is Zhu Yuanzhang's original intention in designing this system.

He Xi also took this original intention.

After all, He Xi understands one thing very well, that is, the internal intertwining of the army of the Great Ming Guard, who is the mountain, knows in his heart.

He Xi has prestige in the army, but He Xi is young in the end, he has never fought the founding battle, and there is no good way to face these mountains. But now all the ministries have been transferred a little, and although there are many and miscellaneous troops, in fact, the scope of activities of each faction has also been reduced.

After all, there are quite a lot of mountains inside Xungui.

This will not affect He Xi's placement of people in the army.

For example, there are those who are responsible for leading the troops in the Beijing camp today, the descendants of He Xi's lineage, Ye Shen. He mastered one-third of the troops of the Beijing camp.

That's it for Rong.

The rest is ritual.

This is the matter of the Ministry of Rites in Beijing.

He Xi's Beijing Left-behind Division imitated Nanjing, with six departments.

However, compared with Nanjing Liubu, Beijing Liubu is simply pocket-sized.

The Beijing Military Department is not so much the military department as the logistics department of the Houjun Governor's Office. Directly connected to the military governor's mansion. Responsible for the management, the army food and grass, the officer naming book. Wait a minute. In short, it is necessary to divide power and check and balance, although the nobles have exclusive military power, they cannot be allowed to have a chance to go alone.

This is the overall will of the Nanjing Imperial Court.

And the Ministry of Rites has shrunk too much. I am also responsible for some ceremonial work. Beijing, no matter how it is said to be the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there are still specifications that should be there. After all, the specifications of Beijing Chenghuang should be compared with those of Nanjing, and there must also be social services outside Beijing. Heaven and earth, the sun and the moon and other altars. It is used for sacrifices and so on.

to indicate the political status of the city of Beijing.

In fact, in ancient times, the very important work of magistrates was sacrifice. It's just that different levels of government mansions worship different specifications of the gods, which have certain rules. Since Beijing is the accompanying capital, although it is not as good as Nanjing, there are many sacrifices.

This is the work of the Ministry of Rites. Plus Beijing Guozijian and other schools.

The household department in Beijing is the place where the most reforms have been made. He Xi personally served as the bank, the commercial tax department, the factory department, and so on. It was the taxation system of banks and companies established by He Xi before, which was included in the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs in Beijing.

As for the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Crime, although it cannot be said that there is nothing wrong. But not much.

It's just that in this way, the workload of Suncheonfu is much less.

However, even so, Shuntianfu also has a large yamen with 10,000 officials, after all, there are many things in Beijing today, which must be handled by the government, otherwise it cannot be operated at all. These are the functions of Suncheonfu.

Now Shuntianfu is in charge of Zhu Xiongying.

This is also what Zhu Xiongying himself wants, and it is also Zhu Yuanzhang's intentional cultivation of Zhu Xiongying.

Although there are many special rules of the Ming Dynasty in Shuntianfu, what is more is that He Xi made some compromises between the modern system and the Ming Dynasty system, so Zhu Xiongying, the Yin of Shuntianfu, is not very different from all the prefects of the Ming Dynasty. It seems to be a very new official.

In He Xi's view, the work of Shuntianfu has always been bumpy. But it's been going on.

This work seems to be only possible for Zhu Xiongying.

Because, He Xi has explained many modern systems to Zhu Xiongying, and Zhu Xiongying has a model that can be compared.

can move forward by feeling the stone and let other people come and do it, but it may not be as good as Zhu Xiongying. And in the process. Zhu Xiongying has a deeper understanding of the operation and development of modern society. Be a good emperor.
