Chapter 108 Rectify the rule of officials and recruit troops
The first step towards reform.
It is to reshuffle the original officials of each city.
Those who do nothing and have bad political achievements will be dismissed from their posts and investigated.
There are also some people who are over 70 years old and still working in a certain county, and they are also allowed to retire early.
Guo Tianyi's retirement policy that he had previously advised in the imperial court is now taking the lead in Shanxi Province as a pilot.
Of course, there are also people who don't want to.
But because of the soft bones, after learning that Guo Tianyi had a Shang Fang sword that could be cut first and then played, they all regressed.
This time, Guo Tianyi deliberately promoted some poor scholars.
In ancient times, even if it was a poor family, it was not comparable to ordinary people.
Most of the so-called Hanmen are declining scholars.
After all, ordinary people don't even know a single big character, and Guo Tianyi can't do anything if he wants to be promoted.
Only after the reform of education in the future can more people get ahead through education.
It took Guo Tianyi seven days to rectify the rule of officials.
Some diligent former officials were promoted or demoted according to their performance and achievements.
If there are too many assets of unknown origin in his name, they have basically been brushed down by Guo Tianyi.
While rectifying the rule of officials, Guo Tianyi also erected a recruitment flag.
Recruitment is the responsibility of its own personal guard regiment.
As soon as the recruitment began, it immediately caused a violent response.
Huaining House.
"Have you heard, His Royal Highness the King of Han is recruiting soldiers, anyone who is over eighteen years old can participate, how many of us are going to try?"
In a teahouse, a young man was eager to try his hand at some of his friends.
"Go, must go." Another young man said, "As long as you join the army, not only can your family be exempted from taxes, but you can also make meritorious contributions, what is more important than sealing your wife and children?" ”
"Yes, I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Han loves soldiers like sons, and the food is so good that there is meat to eat."
"Our brother has good martial arts, and if he goes to join the army, he will definitely be able to mix up an official and a half-job."
"Let's go, go sign up now..."
A few people said they would do it, and immediately went towards the yamen of Huaining Mansion.
"Is there any mistake about so many people?"
"yes, there are too many people, right?"
"It seems that there are not a few people who think the same way as a few of us?"
"Look, Zhang Yuanwai's sons are all here to join the army."
", his family is an old landlord, and he still joins the army?"
"Although he is an old landlord, it is impossible for Zhang Yuanwai's sons to enter the official career without a relationship..."
"The second generation of rich people have joined the army, what reason do we have to refuse?"
"It's just..."
When a few people came to the yamen, the whole street was full of people.
Except for Huaining Mansion.
This is true everywhere else.
Including various county seats, they have begun to recruit troops.
Anyone who has reached the age of 18 and has not exceeded the age of 40 can join the army.
Guo Tianyi also played the banner of "one person joins the army, the whole family is glorious".
I have to say that this trick is extremely useful.
Occupied Huaining Mansion and Yinping Mansion, Guo Tianyi's captured grain, grass and ordnance were enough for 100,000 troops to use for a long time.
These princes are also ridiculous, holding a lot of resources in their hands, but they refuse to invest in the army, but only greedy for pleasure.
Is there any reason to be invincible?
In just three days, Guo Tianyi recruited 100,000 recruits in the surrounding twenty county towns and the three major prefectures.
This greatly exceeded Guo Tianyi's expectations.
Most of the soldiers and horses captured before were eliminated.
With the current 100,000 recruits, Guo Tianyi's troops have reached an astonishing 150,000.
If it weren't for the limited number of recruits, Guo Tianyi was afraid that he would be able to recruit more soldiers.
With these 100,000 recruits, the tens of thousands of court elites under Guo Tianyi were busy.
We will continue to use the training system we have formulated.
For every 10 people, there is a captain.
Each team has 50 people and a team leader.
Each brigade has 2 teams with a total of 100 people, and a brigade commander is set up.
Each regiment has 2 brigades with a total of 200 people, with the post of captain.
Guo Tianyi's 1,000-member pro-army has become grassroots officers.
They were responsible for head-up training, and with the addition of veterans from the imperial court to bring in new recruits, the results of the training were surprisingly fast.
"Your Highness, the price of pork in our city has risen, what should I do?" Cai Xuan was responsible for the logistics and distribution of the entire army, and he had a headache when he saw that countless pork, chickens and ducks were consumed every day.
"If the price goes up, the price increases." Guo Tianyi didn't care and said, "Send people to the surrounding counties to buy supplies, the training intensity of the soldiers is high, and it is important to ensure that their food cannot be dropped off the chain." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Cai Xuan's jaw was commanded, and he sighed in his heart.
I have never seen a superior person so good to a soldier.
Guo Tianyi eliminated most of the soldiers this time, and those who remained were elites.
Coupled with the looting of the wealth of King Yan, King Lu, Marquis of Yin Ping and many corrupt officials, it was enough for him to afford to raise these hundreds of thousands of troops.
There was a hiccup.
It is the wealth of King Lu that is hidden very deeply.
In the secret room under the rockery in the palace.
If Guo Tianyi hadn't learned about the many routines of the ancients, ordinary people would really not have been able to discover it.
And one more thing.
It was Myolie Wu, the beautiful concubine of King Lu, who used a beauty trick to bribe the cell boss.
Seeing this, the cell boss was ready to elope with Myolie Wu.
It just so happened that this matter was bumped into by Jinyiwei.
Guo Tianyi directly beheaded the cell head to show the public, Myolie Wu could have been out after squatting for a month or two, but Guo Tianyi increased her sentence to three years.
This fox is ruined, and her intestines are ruined.
There are also some corrupt officials' mansions when they are investigated and punished, some concubines who are only 20 years old are pitiful, and Guo Tianyi generously rewards them to his subordinates.
This kind of thing was not uncommon in ancient times.
If a foreign race attacked a certain city in Daebong, the women were all trophies.
Compared with the alien race, Guo Tianyi's approach is humanitarian enough.
In the blink of an eye.
Half a month passed.
Today, the royal court meeting was held as usual.
Guo Tianyi sat on the throne and looked at Cai Xuan and said, "Cai Xuan, King Anqing, Marquis of Wushan, Marquis of Fuyang and others have any changes?" ”
"Your Highness."
"These princes have sealed the gates of the city."
"And we're also recruiting new recruits recently."
"There are no other anomalies."
Cai Xuan is now Guo Tianyi's right-hand man, not only responsible for intelligence work, but also in the process of investigating and punishing officials in various places.
As a disciple of the Legalists, his methods are already vigorous and resolute.
No corrupt official can escape Cai Xuan's eyes.
Guo Tianyi looked at Fan Xiong again and said, "Fan Xiong, how are the recruits trained?" ”
These princes are just cowards and soft eggs.
Guo Tianyi felt that the recruits had been trained for more than half a month, and they should be pulled out to experience the experience.
"Your Highness." Fan Xiong came out and said, "The momentum of 100,000 recruits is high, but they have never been on the battlefield and lack actual combat experience..."
"Your Highness, don't you want these recruits to attack King Anqing and the others?" Dong Zhiqiang seemed to understand Guo Tianyi's thoughts, and said loudly.
"Your Highness, no, the recruits lack actual combat experience, and if they attack King Anqing and others, I'm afraid it's not appropriate..."
"Your Highness, the last general suggests that the veteran be the vanguard.."
"Your Highness, the minister also thinks that the recruits are not of great use..."
"Alright." Guo Tianyi said loudly, "You don't need to say much, just go to the military camp with this king to check it." ”
Hearing this, the generals could only nod their heads in agreement.
After a while, everyone followed Guo Tianyi to the camp outside the city.
Before he approached the camp, he heard the earth-shattering sound of drills.
